[IC] Super Heroes/Villians

[Dash375]

Sandra looked worried when the dome formed as it would not take her even longer to reform if she needed to split up to escape his metal attacks but was more concerned with his threat of leaving her as nothing more as a puddle. So instead of attacking she stopped and created a sphere of water around herself from puddles created by the rain and entered a defensive stance "If I cant attack you then I wont let myself be attacked." The water spirit spoke "If anything enters this sphere it will be crushed under the pressure in here."

[thewizardguy]

Vengeous chuckles. "Then it's simple. I need only not enter the sphere." He gestures, and the roof falls down, crashing around you, forming a perfect globe of black steel around you, shutting you off from the outside world. Vengeous smiles, as he reforms his sword. This would be fun.

[Dash375]

Sandra panicked when she was surrounded but knew that would not help her so in response closed her eyes to focus and made a high pressure spike to break a hole in the metal though doing that cost her a lot of energy and limited water supply leaving her feeling tired but wanted to take advantage of her situation and escaped the metal globe through that opening before it would be able to close "There must be a weakness in your attack." She growled standing up to face him and making two new water swords knowing she would have to go on a permanent offensive to avoid being trapped.

[thewizardguy]

Vengeous simply laughed more. "Weakness? I have no such things." Suddenly, you see something odd. At the end of the dome..... the light is getting smaller. The dome is growing down, completely locking you in. Moment by moment, it gets darker and darker, until, with the crunch of stone being shattered, the dome completely encloses the street-sized area. Complete blackness. Not a single light is on in the blackness, and only the rattle of chains is there to accompany you. That, and the echoing chuckle from Vengeous, as the trap draws in closer around you.

[Dash375]

She looked terrified as always being terrified of the dark the panic causing her to lose control of her water swords and falling onto her knees resuming human form trying to tell herself not to fear the darkness but could not help herself and simply held her head wanting to block everything out letting Vengeous having do anything he wanted in the mean time

[thewizardguy]

Vengeous moved forward through the inky blackness. He hated the girl. He wanted to kill her, to crush her. He was filled by hate so strong he had made it tangible, had formed it into a weapon. A hissing armor of pain and agony in physical form. He looked down at the shivering girl, seeing through the chains he had placed all over the street. She was nothing but an object, a receptacle for the inhuman hate that filled his being, the flame of vengeance that had given him his power. Hydra whispered in his ear, filling his thoughts with the different ways he could strike her down. However, in the end, he chose he would simply evaporate her. He held out the blade, which started vibrating, and heating up, slowly giving off a red glow that highlighted the black, spiky, hissing armor that had covered Lord Vengeous's skin.

thewizardguy said
"Honey, I'm so sorry. Did nobody tell you? We're moving at the speed of thought." Kami smiles, as small spiders explode from her black dress, covering you. "All that has happened up until now was less than a second on the outside. You could hold out for days, and it would be less than an hour in real time" Kami punches you as you're distracted by the excruciating pain of hundreds of spider bites, throwing you backwards. "I've already won, my dear."

Elysia's grin only became wilder and wider, "Alright, alright. You got me... Well this version of me." Doors began to appear along the walls, "Speed of thoughts? That is an amusing concept but I don't think you realize just how much real time I've spent in here. I know exactly how much 'time' has passed relative to the out side. However the more important subject is your situation. Each room has a copy of my self in it, however they do not all look the same and neither do the rooms. Think of it as a fluid maze, shouldn't be to hard for you. Teleport around as much as you like, doesn't bother me much. If you're hoping to find any differences in the copies of my soul, you won't. Happy hunting!" There was a small giggle and then complete silence, the copy Kami had been fighting had been reduced to a pile of dust that was absorbed by the room, leaving no trace.

[Dash375]

Sandra felt the vengeful creature come closer to her and closed her eyes as she instinctively moved away wanting to survive she started to run away trying to reach the end of the dome and break it like she did with the metal dome he attempted to trap her in before.

Kami smiled. "Smart girl." Then she gestured, as a hundred copies of her filled all the rooms at once, striking together. "However, in the end, it comes down to sheer mental power. You put up a good fight, girl, but my concentration and willpower has been made into a lethal weapon." Kami's clones attacked from all directions, the rooms burning and melting from the attacks, "You simply don't have the experience to face me in mental combat, girl. You could never have won here."

[Master Crim]

Victor watched and processed all that was happening, but was making no gesture to help either side. He knew that he had to make a choice should he wish to make an impact on this time line but how. If he got anywhere near Kami she would surely use that thing to destroy him, but she wasn't involved in whatever was happening in the black dome that had formed a little ways from her. He stepped out into the street and in a matter of seconds was able to close the distance between him and the dome with astonishing speed.

"Heat signature detected inside the dome.

Victor paused a moment before he opened up a wormhole that served as an opening in the wall. Light poured into the blackness but not enough to see what was happening so using heat vision Victor was able to make out two figures and one heated weapon. Acting fast after identifying the situation he increased the wormhole size to a diameter of 20 feet filling the area with light to further blind the attacker inside, and making him a stiletto against the bright light. Drawing his pistols he fired a volly of lasers at the one with the sword while making his way to the cowering victim not far from the wormhole. "RUN!" He yelled.

[Dash375]

Lifting her head from the ground Sandra saw an almost biblical light coming to pierce the darkness and wondered for a minute if she had already died but a voice broke her out of the frozen trance telling her to run so thats what she did quickly running towards the wormhole and jumped through it landing on the other side and looking at the stranger knowing he must of made it "Thank you." Sandra muttered quietly not used to muttering those words though they may of seem strange coming from someone entirely made of water.

[thewizardguy]

Vengeous bursts into manic laughter, Hydra coiling around him as the beams of light strike his armor. Hydra shines up bright, taking on an almost crystalline appearance, as the lasers bounce off of the armor. With the light reflecting off the now blood red armor, the entire street is suffused in a rosy glow. The chains detach from the walls, each becoming a snake-like appendage with glowing red eyes, as Vengeous himself dashes forward, the metalic snake striking one by one in rapid succession. "You can't escape from me! I'll kill you all!"

[Master Crim]

After the woman exited the dome through the wormhole, Victor stepped back out speedily dodging the snake like chains. After Victor was clear of the wormhole he waited until Vengeous was just about to get through then redirected the wormhole to let out a mile away in the alleyway he had escaped to earlier, and closed it before he could get back through. Victor turned looking at the woman from the dome and walked beside her.

"Vengeous will not be delayed long. Probable out come: He will peruse until subdued or terminated."

"We need to get somewhere safe, he will be coming back, and soon." He looked around at the people all frozen in place some laying on the ground and others running in different directions.

[thewizardguy]

Suddenly, all of the soldiers step down. Throughout the entire city, they step into line, turning towards you. Those that have fallen stand up, grabbing their weapons. However, they lose the element of surprise by moving around awkwardly. A few shoot one another, others simply bump into walls repeatedly or trip. If the previous scene had been surreal, then this was all the more so, as the soldiers wandered around aimlessly like lemmings.

Kami's clones attacked from all directions, the rooms burning and melting from the attacks, "You simply don't have the experience to face me in mental combat, girl. You could never have won here."

Elysia sat hunched forward with elbows on her knees and hands holding her head, her face was quite grim as she stared at the floor and she sighed as if she knew this day would come, the space around her wavered as if overcharged. "I'm not foolish enough to assume that I could win, even in here. Especially in here. It was never my intention to win, it was only to get you out." Elysia could expand the maze, hide herself even more but she knew it would do no good. She spun her chair around to face a door. It wasn't part of the maze and it was much more important, it rattled in it's hinges as if something was trying to escape. She closed her eyes as the lock clicked and the door swung open. "Did you like my visits? I've been gaining strength you know, thanks to you of course. You messed up, you let yourself go too far. That woman Kami, she's right you're not human, not without me at least." Elysia took her madness by the hand she offered. As she stood she fused, becoming essentially a whole. "Together again at last!" Elysia laughed and spun herself around in the chair.

[thewizardguy]

Kami cursed, as a wave of insanity swept through her mind. One of the most important rules of being psychic is not to connect your mind to insane people. Insanity is like a fire, and one shouldn't get too close to it, or you run the risk of getting burned. She formed a mental barrier, protecting her from the madness that was now eating away at Ellysia's mind to some extent. However, she had rooted herself too deeply in Ellysia's mind. A minute longer, and she would have been in control. She was completely unprepared for this attack, and now she had to pay the price for her sloppyness.
Kami had to get the other girl out. She herself couldn't leave, esspecially not in the confusing haze of insanity. The only way to survive this ordeal with her brain intact would be to kick Ellysia out of this body in one, fell swoop. It would be the first time Kami had performed such a manoeuver, and the risk was high. Kami had no idea how Ellysia's soul would react to the jolt, and it might end up killing them both. However, Kami had seen what insanity could do to a person, explored the broken wreck of the minds that were left behind by madness. She would do anything to avoid such a fate. Gripped with uncharacteristic fear, Kami pushed against Ellysia's soul with all her might, focusing the sheer mental power of every spider in the cathedral into this one, fell strike. The soul did not shatter, but moved, as Kami focused to an extent she had never been forced to focus before, her mind aching for reprieve.
.....
.....
Kami opened her eyes, smiling. She had succeeded. She breathed in, and fresh air filled her lungs, her body aching from the aftereffects of the technique. It hurt, but the pain was beautiful. It reminded her that she was still alive, still sane. The image of the soldiers slowly starting to move again, recovering from their stasis, was the most beautiful sight Kami had ever seen. She made a mental image of it, storing it in a special place in her mind. Kami would forever remember this as the moment that she had won, the point at which she had defeated her greatest fear. Elation was the word of the moment, and Kami deeply despised the small nagging feeling at the back of her mind that ruihned the moment that should have been perfect. What was wrong here? Kami looked down, and found that her shoes had changed. Then realization struck, as Kami looked to the side. There, her very own body was staring back at her in disbelief. "Oh fuck."

[Sapphire]

Elysia sat up and rubbed her head while pouting, "I hate that stupid spider lady. We could have played a lot of games together." Dusting off the dirt that had accumulated on her fancy dress.... "Wait what!?!?" She stared at her clothing. "This is hideous, it looks like something that spider lady would.... Oh." She stared at herself and they stood frozen for a few minuets as if trying to figure out whether this was really happening. Elysia's shock began to morph into a crazy grin. "This...is....PERFECT!!!! Poor little spider lady, you're trapped in my body. I wonder who your soldiers will follow but honestly don't care!" Elysia broke out into a fit of laughter, becoming extremely serious she circles around Kami a few times and stopps in front of herself and places her hands on the shoulders that used to be hers, "I have a few important a things to tell you. First of all, don't eat apples, I hate apples. Next, if Dark is still in there you're in for one hell of a ride. Last and most importantly, I don't want a scratch on that body when I get it back." Elysia immediately brightened up, "Awesome! Well unless you can use some kind of undo button we're stuck like this, I also hate you. A lot. So we're going to find a way to reverse this before I stab myself after looking in the mirror." She sighed and threw herself into a chair, "No wonder why you're always sitting, these shoes are awful." She lifted her legs up to examine the shoes.

[thewizardguy]

As Elyssia attempts to sit down, she finds that she cannot. In fact, the chair Kami had been sitting in was an illusion. Furthermore, as you attempt to look at your legs, you find you cannot do that either. While you can look down without trouble, your legs simply don't seem to be capable of moving straight up, and you don't think you have an ankle. As your senses fall into their proper place, you in fact realize you have several more limbs than you're supposed to have. Looking around, you can see the illusions gradually starting to fall down. You have eight legs. A humanoid torso, attached to the body of a large, black spider. You see things through an odd haze, and you notice you can see things in infrared, instead of using light. The dress, instead of being ridiculously long as the illusion had originally had you believe, is a short thing, reaching only until your waist. Any further, and it would have split on the large chitinous form beneath. Kami is, quite literally, a spider, and you can see that the smaller spiders are, in fact, her children.
Kami, now in your body, glares around in horror, her expression almost perfectly matched by the people in the square as Kami's true form is revealed for all to see. While her upper body is still quite pretty, the massive spider body is rather distracting, and so are the hundreds of spiders crawling over the plaza. People are batting at them, trying to get rid of them, and the soldiers are moving around oddly, bumping into one another, as Kami's control only partially comes back on. No doubt scenes like this are playing out trhoughout the entire world, as Kami's appearance is being broadcasted worldwide through her many cameras. In one fell swoop, Kami's image is ruined, and her chances of controlling this world through subtelty have been shattered.

"Thanks for the save." Sandra muttered as she got off her knees while still shivering remembering the perfect darkness she was in before before taking a long deep breath to stop the shivering "Yeah we should go, but I don't want to leave all of these people who he will chop down like nothing." The water spirit explained to this new man though the words still felt weird coming from her mouth seeing as she herself could see no value to keeping them alive.

"I dont think he will be after us." Victor said looking past the woman into the square at Kami. "She is now extremely vulnerable, making her a very large target..." he paused a moment "If she is killed, what happens to me?" Victor said quietly. He looked back to the woman. "Can you get to safety on your own?" Victor asked as he stuck out his arm pushing over a guard about to run into them.
