Igna
Igna watched as Pixie easily took care of her attack. She had to admit that was impressive. She looked around her to see that quite a few people had come and started to watch the fight. So she decided to allow Pixie to greet them. After Pixie was done Igna heard explosions coming from another part of the forest. She turned to Pixie and spoke up.
"You may call me Igna. I will serve you. You seem like a worthy leader. Now I will take your leave and help your creations handle your other guests."She jumped in the air then shot off like a rocket. When she reached Midnight and Shadowwalker she used her rage to slam herself down on everyone. Then she unleased her rage to create a rage domain. Her eyes turned red and once again Igna created ten rage axes that would go out and track anyone who was close by. They would explode upon impact. Afterwards Igna would cause any and all rage inside others to explode and ignite causing them severe injury if not death. Lastly Igna sent out a wave of rage energy all around her that would shred and cut anyone it touched. She looked around ready to fight anyone who dare oppose her or Pixie.
Hehec
Hehec watched Pixie fight the whole way through. He had to admit that the battle was impressive. She created life! That was the kind of power he wanted to wield. The power to do anything imaginable. Upon hearing Pixie introduce herself and speak he was about to step up when Igna spoke first then immediately left. He stepped up and spoke next.
"My name is Hehec and this is Destros, sword of destruction. I will happily join you Pixie. As my first act of loyalty I will go aid Ignis."He bowed to her then went and followed Igna. One then he stabbed his sword into the ground and made explosions that would track all enemies. He then held out his hand and forced any item touching skin to explode. It wasn't much but he wanted to see how much these pathetic beings could handle.
Jassine and Ajinka
Both Jassine and Ajinka sensed the growing darkness and rage from the forest. After being ordered to go investigate the two rushed off as fast as they could. It would take them a few minutes to get there at least. They had to hurry and make sure Christi and Yuki were safe. They continued to run full speed ahead.
Raphi
Raphi listened to Rose go on a mini rant about the chest. He smiled brightly when he heard what it could do and how to activate it. Raphi quickly grabbed the bracelet and put it on then took the chest off. If he was going to fight some sort of guardian then he had to make sure he fought seriously. No restrictions at all.
"Oh wow. I have to try this! I'm going to get ready now. Stay here and root for me." He took all of his weighted gear off then stretched himself out a little. He checked his satchel and he had plenty of food for the fight as well as water. Now he was ready and the chest was in front of him he looked to Rose.
"Goodbye." He looked to the chest then took a deep breath and spoke the words.
"By the Name of Raphi, I call forth the guardian of the Sorcerer's Chest for a test of ownership and trial of power." The moment he spoke the words the chest flew open and the black dephs of the chest sucked Raphi in immediately. When he awoke he found himself in a pitch black room. It took him some time for his eyes to ajust. After a few mimutes his gaze stopped on a pure black creature who stood in front of him.
The creature just stood there and began to speak.
"It has been centuries since hearing those spoken words. It comes to no surprise that we come face to face once again. I was not expecting your arrival so soon however. I hope you are ready because I will not hold back. The rules are simple. You fight me and prove you are worthy of ownership of this artifact otherwise you die. You cannot retreat. There is no going back. Once you agree to these terms then the fight will begin. This is your one and only chance to leave. Speak now Raphi."Raphi listened to the guardian and was confused. He had never met him before so what did he mean they by 'face to face once again' but that wasn't important right now. Raphi could sense the power radiating off him, was he ready for such an intense battle? It must of taken five minutes but those minutes felt like hours to him. After a long period of silence Raphi stood forward.
"I accept these terms. I am ready."In that moment black tentacles rose rose from the ground. The guardian rose his hand and shot a huge dark blast. Raphi quickly did a cartwheel out of the way then began to run towards the heartless dodging each and every tentacle that was thrown his way. It was only thanks to his speed that kept him safe. As he got close he jumped in the air to kick the Guardian's face but the guardian became nothing but darkness. In an instant he appeared behind him and then shot a dark blast that exploded the moment it hit Raphi. He was sent flying back and crashed into a wall. He slowly got himself up and shook his head.
"That was a cheap trick!" He looked up to the guardian who spoke again.
"You say that every time." Raphi looked around him as hundreds upon hundreds of tentacles grew. Every one started to charge up for something big. The ground underneath him began to suck him in. Raphi felt like he was being weighed down. He could hardly move. He thought back to when he started to train and how he couldn't lift a foot when he first had all the weighted gear on. That time reminded him of now. He pulled his leg out of the darkness through sheer determination alone then the other. He then jumped out of the way and began to run at the guardian again. Suddenly all the tentalces threw huge dark energy orbs at him. There were hundreds of them all coming at him. He dodged as much as he could but there were too many. He couldn't dodge every one at once coming from every direction.
Several of them blew up in his face and he was knocked down again. Slowly he got back up. He coughed up some blood and his clothes were torn. This was the hardest fight he has ever had by far. He hadn't even managed to land a hit on the thing yet. Has he really done this before? Raphi stood forward and looked to the guardian in the eyes.
"Is that all you got? No matter what you throw at me I'll get back up! I won't lose here! I won't die. Not here. Not today. Not by you! I will win!" Magic began to flow around him and he ran faster. This time the guardian created dark discs he threw them and Raphi watched as they came closer. He jumped over them and just as he jumped in the air to kick the guardian the black discs shot out of the Guardian's body. He had no time to react. He was cut badly and then they exploded in he face. Just as he was being sent flying back one of the tentacles grabbed his leg then threw him in the air. With a full force swing Raphi was hit and sent crashing in the wall. He coughed up blood and slowly got himself up again. His vision was blury and he could barely see anything. Slowly he fell back down and closed his eyes. Was this it? Was this all he could muster? He didn't even manage to hit him once. After all that training, after all that hard work to become a legend. Was it all going to end here like this?
It was then that he heard Rose talk then Erik. Raphi clenched his fist as he listened. No. He was going to be a legend. Rose wasn't going to take his hard work away from him! He wasn't going to give up. He wasn't going to lay around and just give up. He was going to be a legend. Raphi slowly stood up again and finally looked up to face the guardian with a look of determination on his face. It was then a burst of magic exploded from him healing all of his wounds instantly. Raphi took one step forward and while raising his head up high he began to sing.
Raphi rushed forward but this time he held out his hand and as he did a sphere of light appeared in his hand. He watched the Guardian shoot a large dark bomb at him but he ignored it and kept on running towards it. Just as it was inches from his face Raphi disappeared and reappeared directly in front of the Guardian. He threw his hand in front of him and shouted out loud.
"Aurora's Light!" Suddenly the entire area was covered in a blinding light. After a few seconds the light disappeared and the Guardian had been sent flying back. Raphi teleported directly above him then gave a full force kick to his head sending him crashing down. Seconds before hitting the floor he held out his hands again.
"Dark Bane!" A huge blast of white light shot out of his hands and hit the Guardian just as hit hit the floor. It was then that several tentacles tried to slice and cut Raphi. He was surrounded by hundreds of them. He held his hands together and shouted out seconds before he was hit.
"Angel's Charm!" A huge barrier of light exploded from him discinerating all of the black tentacles. He then teleported down to the Guardian who had stood up. He fired a dark blast at him and just before it hit the dark blast disappeared behind him then separated into thousands of small black bombs. Without looking Raphi thrusted his hand against the floor.
"Oracle of Light!" Just before the dark blasts hit him they all disappeared again then reappeared behind the Guardian. Each and every one turned pure white then attacked him. He was bombarded with his own attack. Raphi rushed forward just as the attack ended and slammed his palm into the Guardian's chest.
"Unholy Explosion!" Seconds later the Guardian exploded. His dark body was scattered across the entire room. Raphi looked around and after a minute had passed the Guardian reformed in the middle of the room.
"That is the skill and power I wished to see. You did not give me time to react or respond properly. Any attack I launced you countered with your defence and speed. If it weren't for this dark realm I could of easily died. I almost thought that this would be one of the timelines where you failed. I am glad I was wrong. It wasn't pleasent killing you. You weren't ready to be the owner of the Sorcerer's Chest. You were slow, sluggish and single minded with no plan in mind. That all changed when you became a seeker. You became quick, accessed your full magic potential. You had a plan and knew exactly what to do to protect yourself. That is what made you worthy. When you leave this chest you will leave with all the knowledge needed to summon me and those who reside in this chest. They seem so excited to finaly meet you again. Thank you for the entertaing battle Raphi and thank you Rose for Observing. As a gift to you I grant you skills not yet to come. The only condition is you speak to not a soul. Only Raphi may hear the whispers as soft as words which entails the warrior within you. Now. It is time to leave Raphi. I am sure I will see you again soon." He held out his hand then everything went black. For a moment Raphi couldn't see anything. Then a second later he opened his eyes and saw the chest in front of him. Slowly he stood up and looked around. He had all the knowledge he needed to summon the.....the heartless from the chest.
Serami
Serami watched Jade open a portal to the Nimbat City. After letting everyone else through she entered herself. Once she was in she looked around. It seemed everything was quite chaotic at the moment. She could the dark forest. All the rage and darkness all in one. She was about to ask what was happening when Ming spoke and said it would be unwise to go with knowing so little. She walked up to Sky and gave her a friendly.
"Hello Sky. I decided that since our village is so far away we would move closer to benefit our alliance better. Is there anything I can do to help you right now? What is the situation with the forest currently?" She gave Sky a smile then looked around. This place was far busier than normal. She turned back to Sky and waited.
Aerexis
Aerexis was about to launch her attack when suddenly a woman appeared. She acted quickly and before she knew it, she along with the boy and his Draclafly had disappeared.
"Follow them!" Aerexis didn't need to be told. Once Dratix had their scent, she could follow them anywhere however just before she teleported Dratix spoke again.
"Wait, nevermind. I sense great power from the forest, there are multiple powerful souls there." Aerexis looked to the forest then gave a small smile.
"Very well, let's see what's there." She teleported straight to the battle at hand. She quickly looked around, seeing a number of people together.
"Ah, Midnight. She is here. Aerexis, do not attack the dragons. They are not your enemy." Aerexis nodded and jumped into the air.
"Hell's Fury!" As she shouted, a huge black blast shot out of her hand that would explode on impact and causing nightmares brought from their victims to reality as well as create a demonic domain. She landed on the ground and Dratix stretched himself out and flew into the air.
"Your souls are mine!" He let out a demonic mist that would rip out the soul of anyone it would touch separating their soul from their body.
Urca
Urca was already on her way to the Nimbat City, there had been a lot of events happening in the past few days, the creation of magic being one of the most well talked about. So she decided to go to the source of the commotion and find out what exactly was going on. Just as she was arriving she felt powerful dark rage energy coming from the forest, she didn't know what was making it but she knew where it came from. She looked towards the forest slowly. Something was going on there, but she didn't know what and it would be suicide to investigate alone. For now, she turned towards the Nimbat city and continued on. Once at the gates she spoke up.
"My name is Urca, and I'm here to enter the city. I come in peace." She bowed her head to the nimbats and the two guards looked at each other. They had clear heard of her before, after all she was a travelling samurai. After a moment of silence they nodded to each other and allowed her to pass. She stepped in quickly and walked forward until she came up towards the others. For now, she stayed quiet as they spoke, listening to them.
Pyri
Pyri flew around the Nimbat city, there was a lot happening and so many visitors. Everything was in chaos, however something had caught his attention. He turned to the forest as he sensed powerful dark rage energy from there. He saw that a few others were going to go but decided to check out the situation first. Luckily, Helena sent out drones allowing him to see the live feed and what he saw only interested him more. The forest had turned black, something had corrupted it or at least, part of it. Pyri had seen enough. He gave a wide smile and quickly flew over the wall and towards the forest. He had to see this for himself. He continued to fly through the forest avoiding the drones so he wouldn't be seen until he came to a intense battle between Pixie and someone else. After the battle was done, Pixie created something, two new creatures and they were soon sent off to deal with intruders. Pyri decided to let them handle it for now, and instead flew up to Pixie.
"Pixie, you're here? That battle was amazing, I've never seen such power before." He smiled brightly as he watched her intently now.
Elfarian
Elfarian continued to run through the forest but then suddenly everyone was brought together and a second later two large creatures appeared from the sky. She looked up in shock and fear as she spoke
"What are those things?" She quickly rose her sword and used her magic to create a small shield around everyone. She then shouted out loud.
"Everyone, prepare for battle!" She didn't know how long the shield would last, she wasn't very well versed in magic yet but she had to try something.
Sokolov
Sokolov was in the future, he had watched Dust and Arah escape to the past through the time portal and thus creating a reset. He then looked to Pixie and gave a small smile.
"Well done, you win again. I'll see you next time Pixie." With that Sokolov vanished, returning to the realm of the familiars. Each time things reset things always changed. Sometimes for the better and sometimes things for the worse. He hoped that this time, it would be for the better. Sokolov quickly made a portal within the familiar realm and came out into the Nimbat City. He looked around briefly before looking to the forest.
"It seems things are already changing." He flew to Ahrah and quickly spoke to him and Dust.
"What's the situation so far? How bad is everything?" He looked to the forest as he waited for his answer.
Rena
Rena was sat in her temple meditating silently. As she meditated however, she felt a sudden power surge. Something had changed. She slowly opened her eyes and stood up.
"Did you feel that?" It was a feminine voice that spoke first.
"Yes, a great evil has awoken" Then soon after another voice joined in the conversation.
"They are powerful, and this evil will bring great change to the world." Rena gave a small nod in agreement.
"Then we must leave immediately and see what change this brings." With that Rena opened up a black and white portal and stepped through it. The portal closed behind her and Rena stepped out from a portal located in the Nimbat City. Not everyone recognised her or knew who she was but those who had heard about her or knew the stories instantly bowed. Rena stepped towards Dust who she saw was wielding Ahrah.
"You have chosen your master. Then great change is already happening. I wish to know the situation at hand. Tell me everything." When she spoke Rena slowly looked around seeing quite a few people already here.
Fae
Fae was looking through her 'history' grimoire in the First Kingdom to see what was currently going on. Prince Erik was missing and everyone was looking for him. Apparently he had sneaked out with Lamy. There was a lot of things it was focusing on. She could see people gathering in the Nimbat City, but she wanted to see if it knew anything about Prince Erik. So where was he now? She focused her prediction power on him, and the book told her what she needed to know. Prince Erik had been taken to the Lalafell City. She decided to investigate and see what was going on. So she used her time powers to 'skip' to the part where she arrived in the Lalafell City and began to look around. It didn't take long for her to find him along with a woman and a Lalafell Usamimi sitting next to each other.
"Hey, there you are Prince Erik. Everyone is looking for you." She then looked to the woman and spoke again.
"You brought him here, didn't you? Why? Who are you?" Fae couldn't sense any ill intent, at least not for now and Lamy wasn't acting aggressive. Something definitely wasn't right.
Dark
Dark arose from the darkness that was spreading due to Pixie's rising power. A single black wolf with dark red eyes stared at the ongoing battle with the dragons. As with Pixie, his own power was growing. Still, as he did last time he would end up victorious. They may fight him but he would ultimately end in victory and his domain would rule over it all. Still, Dark could sense the shifting of the timeline. Things were already changing rapidly. Once again his contract with Pixie was going to come into play. He rose his black head and let out a bone chilling howl. Then with his power over the darkness, he began to spread his domain rapidly with an extra added effect. The darkness would rear it's ugly head reaching out for any of Pixie's allies. It would plant itself in their brains and grant them memories and power yet to come. Then he stepped forward slowly until he stood in front of Bella.
"We meet again, Bella. This time you and your mother will be mine." Of course, this meant nothing to her. She wasn't aware of who or what he was and even the Earth Spirit didn't have access to the memories of the future. Still even looking at him anyone would be able to tell that he was no ordinary wolf. Evil radiated off him like a plague. As he stood staring at the enemy the darkness spread around him faster. Dark then began to use his dark magic to howl and create a dark and red energy ball. Quickly he sent the energy ball crashing towards the earth which would corrupt the forest and hopefully the Earth Spirit along with it.
Ursula
Ursula was aware that the Atlantians had gone to the surface. It had been so long since they had gone to the surface. It told her one thing. Something big was happening, and it was effecting Atlantis. Ursula wanted to know exactly what. If she could make the situation worse for them somehow then perhaps she could destroy them once and for all. She rose to the surface and stared at the Atlantians as they moved towards the Nimbat City. Then she turned her attention to the forest. She sensed a lot of dark power there and she suspected that the cause of the chaos would be there. Ursula traveled quickly, going into the forest until she came across Pixie. She had heard so much about her, how she was the leader of the alliance of magical species. Now it seemed dark and power radiated off her. She understood the chaos quickly. She watched Pixie battle before watching her create new life. She smiled brightly and when it was all over she stayed silent as some of her followers went off to battle including the two new creations.
"Greetings Pixie. I am Ursula, witch of the sea." She smiled once again and waited for Pixie to address her.
Saber
Saber was in the land of the familiars, so he too was aware of the time loop. He knew at around this time, Frostflame would be in the Nimbat City leaving for the forest. It was one of the times where they both agreed on something. It allowed Flame to fight and Frost to help anyone in trouble. It benefited them both. So Saber opened a portal and left the Familiar world coming out in the Nimbat City just as Frostflame was leaving.
"I hope you weren't thinking of leaving without me." He gave them a smile then looked to the forest.
"It won't be an easy fight. It's going to be very dangerous." He could already sense things were rapidly changing like they always did. He looked back to them and waited for them to lead.
