[IC] Clash of the Realms (Always Accepting.)

[gamer5910]

Arena location: A huge grassy plain with a few hills but they aren't huge. There is two lakes and they are pretty big, but each of them are on the opposite sides of the plain. In the middle is a huge rock stack that reach up high, and near by is a stone cave that doesn't go deep just enough to provide shelter for the night. Winds were soft only blowing the long grass gently not like hurricane or tornado winds which rip out grass at first chance. Surrounding the outside of the plain was a very thick fog which prohibits seeing the other side, and in most situations tricked the unsuspecting people into crossing through just to satisfy their curiosity. -Riku- After crossing through the fog and noticing his friends weren't with him "Hey guys!" he called out, but he heard no reply which angered him. Riku took note of his surroundings he saw that this fog stretched far and looked like it closed off this specific area, but why was the question. Riku started walking around and after a long while of walking he was tired and needed a place to rest. That's she he found a stone cave. Riku thought it was a weird place to rest but it seemed like the only shaded place he could rest at, so he didn't complain well he did a little but not a whole lot. Riku only sat at the entrance of the cave not doing much but looking at two pictures he pulled out of his pocket one was of his mother and father and the other was of him and his friends. It didn't take long but Riku realized he wasn't alone in the cave and upon realizing this the only thing to come out his mouth was "Shit..."

[Teknonick]

[Maosu] Maosu woke up first, laying in the grass next to her brother and sister. "Who... what..." she asked herself, and presumably her siblings. She grabbed her face or a short while before standing up and taking in her surroundings. She took in the soft winds across her face, and the breezy grass between her feet. She looked at the massive pile of rocks stacked up in the center of the field, reaching up high in the air. She saw the nearby cave, and thought it might be a safe place to stay. She almost walked over towards them, forgetting about her siblings for a short moment, before turning to them and crouching next to them. "Josia, Naoto, wake up!" she asked them, grabbing Josia first and shaking he awake. [Josia] "Where... why...?" Josia asked her sister who seemed to be frantically shaking her. Josia stood up, and took in the same things as Maosu. "Where are why? How long where we out?" she asked. "I don't know. I just woke before you." Maosu responded. Josia walked a few feet away from her siblings in the direction of the cave, noticing some man entering it.... "Hey, I just saw someone. Wake up Naoto, I'm going to go check out what that was!" Josia said, rushing off without her siblings. She reached the entrance of the cave, and tried looking around it. It was very dark for her, especially after having woken up in the bright fields. She blinked her eyes quickly, adjusting them to the darkness instantly. She saw a demon standing before her... but he didn't appear to be a threat. Her own brother was a half-breed himself, so she knew better than to judge instantly. She cuffed her hands to her mouth, and called out, "Hello! Who are you? Where are we? My name's Josia!" [Naoto] "How..." Naoto cried, expecting and answer as to how he had let himself fall asleep so easily. "Don't- touch me." Naoto said, grabbing Maosu's hands as she was about to start shaking him. Naoto stood up and straightened himself out quickly, taking in the rocks at the center. "Where's Josia?" he asked. "She's in the cave." Maosu responded. "Let's get to some high ground... maybe that will help." Naoto told Maosu, sprinting over towards the rocks and leaping up them. "Maybe we can see past this fog if we climb high enough." he said as he continued to leap. Maosu shot sound beneath herself, launching herself upwards slower than Naoto was climbing.

[GingerBoi123]

Udyr stood upon a grassy hill, eyes closed, meditating. He's been at it for a while but briefly opened one eye to realize he wasn't quite in Valoran, or was he? Either this was strange as grey mist circled around him and the entire grassy plain. He opened his eyes fully and scanned the surroundings. Udyr immediately noticed a tall stack of stones, much like the prehistoric Yordle would have built. Udyr decided to investigate. The spirit walker stormed across the meadow with haste and quickly made his way to and up the pillar. When he reached the top he was met by another face. This was very, very strange. "Greetings." Udyr said in his gruff, Wildman voice.

[Teknonick]

[Naoto] "Greetings to yourself as well." Naoto responded to the human, with a very wild look to him, he was conversing with. "Are you not afraid of me, I am after all half-demon." Naoto said, folding his arms calmly as he scanned the horizons. "I wouldn't try to convince you to change your stance, however, as I am not here to harm anyone. I used to be a regular human once." Naoto tried to explain himself as he adverted eye-contact. [Maosu/Naoto] "Hey! What do you see up here Naoto!?" Maosu's voice called from right below. She jumped up after pulling herself up from the last rock, and sending herself up with her powers. "Oh, someone else is here before us." she said. "No, just after myself, and just before you." Naoto corrected. "Oh." Maosu sighed, looking down. She then looked up at the wildman, scanning him quickly. She shot one of her hands at him like a bullet, stepping closer and putting on a smile. "Hi! My name's Maosu. What's yours?" she asked the man.

[gamer5910]

Riku looked up from the two Photos to say what looked like a 23 year old female asking him who he was, and before answering a familiar voice popped into Riku's head "geez you gotta stop being so friendly to strangers. One of these day that stranger is gonna put a bullet in your head, and that's why I strike fear into the person you're greeting and they will either know not to mess with you or they have a better reason for killing you." said the voice of one of Riku's four friends. With that in mind Riku change what he was going to say "who am I? Well that's a great question, I am the son of death, I am one of the best demons to ever cross the mortal realm, I am part of a four person bounty hunting squad, I am Riku, and who the hell do you think you are." He said with great confidence. Riku showed off a bit more at the end by using his bright purple flame to someone his scythe the light from the process was so sudden it would catch anyone off guard. One second complete darkness then the next a bright light appearing out of thin air summoning one of the most deadliest weapons in the underworld.

[Teknonick]

[Josia] The demon before me came into focus as it revealed itself. It appeared to have friends along with him, though Josia couldn't quiet tell for some reason, despite her excellent eyesight. One of them made a snappy comment, saying something about a bullet to the head.... Josia listened, instead of interrupting. She folded her arms at this point, and held a less outgoing attitude. Next, the first demon she saw explained who he was, then summoned a great weapon as if to intimidate her, which it did. "Who said I was being friendly? I just asked who you were. Now, if you go around with such an attitude like that, someone's going to stab a cross in your -" she couldn't help but let loose a small giggle at the end before she could finish. "As to who I think I am, I'm no one special. I don't have a super fancy title, nor do I think I'm so 'all-mighty' powerful that I need one. I'm Josia, uber-friendly woman who seems to get shot in the head just for saying hello." Josia rolled her eyes. "If you plan on using that scythe on me, I'd advise against it. I'm not alone, and I'd let you know I'm not your enemy here. We're simply passing through to find a cure for my friend... who, is much nicer than your ugly self." she smirked, keeping her hands folded. She stood her ground, but was ready to blind the demon if she had to get away and gather the attention of her two siblings.

[GingerBoi123]

"Udyr-" The man simply said when Naoto and Maosu asked for his name, however it was clear they were not human. Naoto asked if Udyr was afraid of him being a half-demon. There are more than demons to worry about back in Valoran. Udyr quickly looked the boy up and down for a moment or two before finally replying "No." and with that he hopped off of the rocks. "I need to find a way out." Udyr said to no one in particular but the two half-demons could easily have heard him. Udyr scanned left and right again, arms folded until he noticed a cave. Perhaps a tunnel? It was worth checking out. Udyr ran to the cave with a tigers speed, but stopped in his tracks when he noticed two was there already. Instead of greeting, Udyr went to walk past the two to try and gain access to cave. He had to get to Valoran.

[gamer5910]

Riku just stood there in disbelief of what the women just said to him "you may have come to only pass through but I'll tell you what. I was gonna let you just past by but after hearing you call me ugly, well you just basically insulted my father who I never got to meet in person. So now I have one more bounty to claim and that's your head on a silver platter." He said to the women as he lunged at her trying to chop her head off with his scythe. "Die you bitch!" He shouted.

[Teknonick]

[Naoto/Maosu] "Did he just say he wasn't scared of you, then jumped off and say he needed to find a way out?" Maosu 'asked' Naoto, though more like prodded at him. "They were two different responses, don't mush them together Maosu." Naoto sighed heavily as he finished his search. "I can't see anything past all of this fog. Let's follow that 'Udyr' and see if we can find way out as well." Naoto said, before leaping off and tumbling well at the bottom. "Naoto- ugh." Maosu called after him, then sighed as he jumped out of sight. Maosu hopped down the steps quickly, using her control over sound to help her fall farther than normal. Once she reached the bottom, Naoto was already catching up to Udyr. "Hey, wait Naoto!" Maosu cried, running after the two. [Josia] Shit. Josia thought to herself as she tumbled backwards. She lifted her hands into the air, creating a blinding light as she summoned a physical wall in front of her. She quickly turned and sprinted for the entrance, attempting to create more and more walls behind her, as she knew they were fragile, being stretched as big as they were. "Naoto, Maosu! In here!" she called, yelling out through the mouth of the cave as she attempted to escape the demon. Come on, come on! The first demon I meet besides my brother, and they turn out to be a total nut job! No wonder people are so afraid of him....

[GingerBoi123]

Udyr managed to get by but was interrupted by the man further in the cave shouting "Die you Bitch!" and a wall of energy being created. Udyr turned and saw the man wielding some sort of scythe and attacking the woman. He couldn't just leave them, the monks had taught him otherwise. Udyr entered his tiger stance and gave chase. The orange claws began to form round his fists and forearms and he sped up chasing the man with the scythe, the wall had dissipated and all three were out of the cave, meaning Udyr had a line of sight, but the fog made this difficult. Udyr followed the silhouette closest to him and when he was in range he pounced with a mighty roar, landing on their back and sending the two tumbling through the fields. Udyr rolled and quickly gained his footing, turning to his target, with his arms open and his body low, ready to strike again. (O/C: I realized my image has not uploaded, the Udyr skin I wanted to use for this rp was spirit guard Udyr, in case anyone was wondering)

[gamer5910]

As Riku was trying to attack the women while he was still charging at her a mysterious man came out of nowhere and he doesn't know what happened after that but all three of them were sent flying out the cave. Riku collided with the rock tower snd went through it causing the tower to break in half and fall over. When he finally got close to the ground he hit it hard and didn't have any balance to stop tumbling until he finally lost enough speed to come to a stop. Riku feeling a bit hurt by cladding with the thick rock tower slowly regained his strength just enough so he can get up and face the man who made him miss his target. "You ever you are picked a good day to die." Riku said as he lifted his scythe up and smashed it into the ground and shortly after a bright purple light appeared and slithered towards the man. "Gotcha" Riku thought as a big blast of purple fire bursted out of the ground and right beneath the man. Riku the blast is so huge Riku can't tell if he got him or not so he prepared himself just in case of a counter attack.

[GingerBoi123]

When Udyr saw the purple light, his orange claws dissipated as Udyr crossed his arms together and extended them forward, green scales knotting in place all over his arms and a green energy field projected from his arms. The explosion sent him flying back and tumbling through the air, until he landed on his back, near a large lake. The force field managed to stop any proper damage, however Udyr felt the force of the explosion. Udyr slowly stumbled to his feet, and looked up to see if his opponent was still there, he saw a slightly shaded silhouette with the scythe jutting from the side. Udyr growled and charged forward, slowly gaining speed as he changed stance to Bear form. When Udyr got close enough he propelled himself forward into the air, raising both fists up and slamming them down into the ground right in front of the scythe-wielding demon, shattering the earth around him and a shockwave which could knock his opponent back.

[Teknonick]

[Naoto] The sudden appearance of a shape-shifting human appearing to save Josia was a sight not expected. She took that chance to get over to Naoto and Maosu. "What's going on now? Where did he come from?" She asked them. "Where did the demon come from." Naoto asked plainly, stretching out his hand and motioning for a weapon. Josia sighed, and summoned Naoto's favorite sword, the Chweren Schlag Zweihänder. Normal Zweihänders weight around 15 kg, while the schweren Schlag is between 30 kg and 45 kg. This isn't a problem for Naoto, however, as due to his size and strength. Naoto grabbed it out of the air, and charged in for the demon, hoping the now bear-spirit-walker would distract him. [Maosu/Josia] "Come on Josia, let's go help! Summon me my weapons so we can gooooo!" Maosu asked very quickly. Josia nodded, and raised her hands in the air, swinging them around as she conjured two modified Chakrams. They were designed to be lighter, but also bigger. They were also enchanted to return to the thrower after their use. Maosu accepted them cheerfully, and jumped in after Naoto, letting loose her weapons with the power of her sound, sending them in after the demon. It's only a matter of time until his friends come out here to join him.... Josia sighed, before summoning several spikes in the air around her, and a short sword in her left hand, and a shield in her right. She followed after her siblings, ready to charge into battle....

[gamer5910]

Riku smirked "four against one that seems unfair don't you think." Flippy said to himself. He saw a another mysterious man charging at him with a Zweihänder, so Riku jumped up dodging his attack and landing on the pole of his scythe still sticking out of the ground from his previous attack. Riku smiled and fell down and quickly after side sweeping and smashing his attacker to the ground and also withdrawing his scythe from the dirt ground. After countering one attack another one ended up sending him far back further away from his original target the big guy who stopped him from killing that women. As he was sliding backwards trying to keep balance Riku felt something hit his back and his arm. When Riku stopped sliding he was a bit ticked off, but he didn't care for that because now another women not the same one from before but a different one came charging at him with a short sword and a shield. Riku blocked an attack from her before shoving her back and swinging his scythe at her only to be blocked by her shield. "I'm sensing a bit of a connection between all of you, and that just means I'm gonna have kill you all." He said with a smirk. Riku studied his situation for a few seconds and thought of a plan of action, and he finally got his plan. He stared into the women's eyes before looking down giving here a hint that there was something below her. It was a purple circle with a symbol in it "get ready because I'm not gonna get thrown off guard this time." Riku told the women he was fighting. Shortly after finishing his sentence he jumped back and let the purple demon fire burst out the circle igniting the grass forming yet another circle surrounding all of his opponents eventually the fire will fully fill the circle, so Riku stood back and gazed upon his trapped opponents.

[GingerBoi123]

Udyr was trapped in the circle of fire as it closed in on him and the other three. Udyr thought on his feet and switched to tiger stance, using his speed to grab the half demon and his two friends within the fire ring and brought them to the centre, of the circle. Udyr then switched to turtle stance as green energy hexagons formed around them, knitting into a dome shield. Udyr, crossed his arms together forming the shield as his hair changed into a short Mohawk like style and his beard shortened. The fire lapped up against the shield all around, straining Udyr but he was determined to keep the three safe, even if he had to sacrifice himself, but he tried his very best. They were stuck like fish in a barrel however and this worried Udyr greatly.

[Teknonick]

[Naoto] "Huh- Hey!" Naoto yelled at his captor as he was forcefully grabbed and dragged away with his two sisters, before being surrounded by a turtle shell. "What are you doing!? I can take the heat, let me the f-" he yelled, reading to attack the man who was saving him. Maosu grabbed Naoto's arm as he was about to start fighting, stopping him from doing what he was going to do. [Maosu] We dropped our weapons when he grabbed us. Hopefully Josia will have the energy to resummon them... these 'whoever they ares they think they are' are starting to get dangerous. Maosu thought to herself after stopping her brother. "Come on, calm down Naoto, we'll get through this." she said. She looked over at Josia, who had her eyes closed, and was strangely concentrating on something.... [Josia] Josia moved the conjured weapons everyone had dropped towards the man that had saved them, stopping them just before a strike, and turning them into a dome made of energy to help protect him with her own energy. She sent part of he own life force into the field, making it stronger, but at the cost of hurting her a partial damage dome to the new magical dome. If they all survived the attack... she might live herself... but she would be defenseless for the remainder of the battle. [NMJ] The two huddled together as Josia concentrated on her own, hold her hands above her head as much as she could to direction her magic. Everyone was braced for the attack... but survival was dependent on Josia's magic, and the man's capability of taking the rest of the damage if her shield broke.

[gamer5910]

Riku stood back after he trapped the four in a ring of demonic fire, but he noticed that they were being protected by a shield. "Well we can't have much of this now can we." Riku said to himself as a leaped up into the air stopping the fire and extinguishing it while in mid air. Riku summoned his scythe and then with full force began his descent down heading towards the four being protected by a shield. His speed was incredible and it would take really quick reflexes to block his attack which would most likely shatter the shield protecting his enemies.

[GingerBoi123]

Udyr ignored the protests of his allies but looked up helplessly as Riku slammed the scythe into the shield. Udyr put his hands side by side and opened palm up flat against the Scythe. Udyr went blank as he hit the floor hard but looked up to see he blocked the scythe by a single energy hex which kept him alive. Udyr gathered the last of his strength he could in Turtle Stance and pushed up against Riku enough to let him roll left to an escape. Udyr went to Bear Stance as he stood up and awaited an attack or intercept in case his opponent decided to go after anyone else, but Udyr did not have the energy to go for a full attack.

[Teknonick]

[Josia] After the quick impact on the shield, Josia collapsed where she was, passing out and being forced to lay there helplessly. After the shield had shattered, their shape-shifting friend managed to swipe the scythe out of the way long enough for Naoto to pick up Josia, and jump away from their current position with Maosu. "Maosu, catch." Naoto yelled at her sibling, handing Josia over as Maosu protested. Maoso held Josia, but struggled from her small size and little strength. [Naoto] "I've got this punk who thinks he can mess with my sisters." Naoto grunted. He shot his hands forward, catching them in a gulf of flame, then smashing them into each other as he was ready to take on the demon himself... whether he would win or not.... Naoto charged after the demon who had attacked his sister, raising one fist into the air to send a burning punch into the demon's side. [Moasu] "Naoto! What are you doing!? You can't handle him by yourself!" Maosu screamed after her brother. She knew he was strong, but up against another demon who was armed was out of the question. Maosu plopped Josia to the ground a little harder than she wanted to, "Sorry." she muttered, then starting to drag her as fast as she could over to the collapsed pile of rocks to try and hide her sibling their.

[gamer5910]

Riku was surprised at the fact that monk had enough strength to block his attack, but nonetheless he was still ready to finish what he started. While trying to readjust himself Riku was attacked by that other half demon who was mentioned before. When the half demon impacted His side Riku since he was still in the air was sent back a bit, but not before spinning around and round house kicking the half demon sending him back as well. After Riku landed on the ground he whipped around facing his enemies he also notice his side was bleeding from the hit looks like the half demon's attack worked sort of. "Listen kids I've had much worse than this so show me more of a fight or I might think this was just a waste of time." Riku said to all of them even the Monk.
