<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

When did you learn magic?

@Techspert

I didn’t! In dreams, you can be anything you want to be.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Extra>

*punches her into the ground*
You annoying insect.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*flies towards you after, grinning*
Show me how much you will struggle in vain.

@Asce

*Points my wand toward you, creating a magic purple shield that blocks your approach*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

<Snipped quote by Asce>

No!
*Tackles Acnologia, redirecting his path away from you all*

@Extra

*Fires into him what looks like purple magic, blasting him backward into the cave wall*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*Drops my shoulders*
...Do what you have to do.

@Techspert

*Smiles and hugs you*
I won't let you down!
*Two rings of purple light extend in either direction from my waist, changing my appearance as they move*

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*Plants the base of my scythe into the ground and grips the neck to stop my hands from shaking*

@Techspert

Give me one day to pay you back. Please, so we can all go home.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Zeal>

How? What does that mean?

<Snipped quote by Asce>

*Slices directly upward, leaving an ephemeral slash floating in the air*

@Techspert

*Squeezes your arm*
You have to listen to Spirit. If you really want me to make it out safely, you have to trust me.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*kneels takes the blow head on, sliding back, shortly after I begin to laugh*
That was great! Give me more! Your useless struggle is priceless!

@Asce

*Bounces off of your face, backflipping in the air and sliding to where Spirit and Time Line stand*

<Snipped quote by Zeal>

You can’t promise that! I’m the only one who can guarantee her safety!

@Techspert

Time Line...
*Takes your arm and meets your eyes*
Please trust me. Just today.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

* amidst the barrage of punches I grab your arm and swing you into the air*

@Asce

*Holds onto your arm to follow through the swing and land a blow on your face, in the print left by my last attack*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

I can’t just let you get hurt!!

@Techspert

The only one holding me back today is you! Just trust me this one time!

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*takes the hit to hammerfist you into the ground, then breaks away from he wall to rapidly start throwing punches at you at intense speeds*

@Asce

*Kneels on the ground below the onslaught, blocking the blows with my wrists*

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Not here—I can’t lose you here!

@Techspert

You won’t! After all of this is over, I can go back to being helpless and you can go back to keeping me safe. But today, just today... trust me.
