Current Sick of joining roleplays only to have them die. I hate investing my time and energy into something for nothing. Seriously making me want to give up on roleplayer guild.

Naturally with nothing left to stop it, the dome gave way before Atlas' hammer fell. It was directed to where Ada hid when Oz initially jumped in and closed himself off. After closing himself in with her he couldn't make any further instructions to Atlas, meaning he needed to keep her from moving around. Did she move very much? Everything was getting hazy.

Oz couldn't see or hear, but he could certainly feel the impact near him.
Ada really had lost it. It was only another facet of her already broken sanity though. She'd been keeping herself safe and distant for most of this battle but now here she was closing the distance for Oz. She was afraid of tight spaces sure but at this point being in here was making Oz claustrophobic too. It was downright creepy in here. Now it seemed like it would be a contest to see which would squash the other first only Ada didn't realize it yet. Oz raised a small mote of energy into the air to light the room, only to find it quickly filling in from the sides. It was like a dungeon delver's worst nightmare.

Oz pushed forward, away from the filling edges and towards the unstable witch. She closed her eyes but it was likely the ooze could act as her sensory agents in her place. Regardless he pressed at her to grab her with his good arm.
Oz clutched at his shoulder as if pressing it closer might ease the pain. "What happened to your speech Ada? Did I mishear that you have a grasp of mortality. Life can be lonely. You may have forgotten how precious it is to have family until now. To be attached, welcomed..." He grunted, rolling his shoulder. "To understand mortality is to understand weakness and loss. I am not a god or pretend to be one like you say, Ada. And if Geode was my god then I will never be what he was. I am weak. Welcome to my world."

Oz kept mentally counting. Ticking away at the seconds left that he planned. He just prayed it wouldn't kill him too. The hammer was falling. Fast. Everyone in the battlefield could see it. Everyone except Oz and the one who used to see everything.
Oz's hand glowed as he raised it to the roof of their arena. The dome's translucency was replaced with a sky blue light that was impossible for normal eyes to see through. He was augmenting it with veil.

"For all I have gained, I doubt I could get much lower." A twinge of sadness furrowed his brow and just as quickly it was gone. "Why would you want to feel woe? To experience such sadness again and again? Is it all you have left to savor and feel?" He continued.
A dome shield seemed like a good idea for a sweeping attack like this. Inception tricks weren't in his arsenal though. No dome inside a dome. The whips came at him and he had only offense and a weakened shield to counter. He stepped toward the lash closest to his right and empowered his good with a burst of ki. He managed to smash through the hardened ooze as the opposite limb smashed into his weak side, sending him tumbling and bloodied. A weaker man could have been easily crushed.

Oz sat on hand and knees, squinting at Ada through blood that dripped off his brow. Despite the rigor of battle he began counting down in his head. He had a presence of mind to combat distraction and pain. His wrist dragged limply against the ground as he pulled himself back up and smiled defiantly at the witch. "Do you know what it's like to really hurt, Ada? Not the pain of flesh or stress on the soul. No torment on the mind either. But to have your heart broken." Oz used his good arm to emulate a wrenching and crushing motion. "Metaphorically wrenched from you and shattered in your view?"
Ki trailed in ribbons behind Oz as he descended like a comet tail. The raw ki was also pushed ahead of his hand, allowing it to impact the area even before he physically did. The ground shattered on impact, cracking in a wide area and giving into a crater at Oz's position. The thin layer of sludge cleared away from his landing zone easily, giving him some space. An aftermath of shock waves ensued as the energy released itself from his arm.

Oz lifted his good arm in the low visibility of the dust and smoke kicked up from the brief air bout. He created a dome shield that went thoroughly through the ground to trap him and Ada inside of and keep the remaining ooze she had set up outside away.

Then the pain hit. "Aah hell!" Oz cursed. He winced at the sudden surge from his shattered arm. On examination it was as if the arm couldn't decide whether it was partly burnt or totally broken. He peered carefully at Ada's wall for signs of any movement. "You like this sort of thing don't you, dear." He played along.
The great hammer flew higher rapidly but Ada made it clear she didn't want him going anywhere by pouring more resources into launching purple tendrils at Oz and his vehicle of choice. At the rate her grasp approached she would reach him before anything else happened. He launched a volley of ki blasts at the reaching ooze futilely. There was too much too fast. He would need to think bigger to counter something like that.

With his hand flat against the flying hammer Oz imprinted into it a specific command, using Atlas' semi-sentient energy that still clung to it. He kicked down against the haft and let it continue upward in a spin. Oz lost his footing, allowing himself to falling a few feet before redirecting himself downward. In an abuse of his power over gravity, Oz dodged the initial tendrils by arcing back upward, twisting around and looking back down in a briefly suspended space in the air. "Intimate. Alright. I'll play." Ada had volumes more ooze than what she was using. It was safe to assume if she caught him unprepared that she would win in spite of all his defensive bluster. He needed to close distance and make such volume and strength over mass impossible to use.

Oz reeled back his left arm and began charging energy into it, it gave off a nearly blinding violet light as the skin itself radiated. It was such an intense amount of ki that he risked disabling or destroying the whole arm in order to guarantee his success against Ada. This was likely the most risky move he'd done in a long time but playing it safe isn't always playing for keeps. You must be willing to sacrifice if you want victory over a universe-shattering force.

The descent began. The usual personal shield protecting Oz went up but it seemed like the shield had trouble protecting the empowered arm. Oz went down, left-arm first and shooting straight toward Ada. "I bet Jenso would call this something." He whispered against the wind.
Oz stood on the shoulder of his avatar, surrounded by a tide of ooze. Atlas' foothold was almost none-existent at this point, the wave of shambling oozes acting like a viscous mud. Atlas fell to its knees and used an arm to steady itself beneath the mass of ooze, keeping the hammer and Oz above the chaos.

"You're good at this." Oz passed an idle compliment. "Good thing I'm a great student." He finished. What he lacked for numbers and volume he made up for in quality. Ada had a skill to change her ooze into what ever being or shape she needed to use in a pinch. Oz also had that value in him. Atlas was made up of the ki he had summoned. That ki was still malleable fuel and he was standing right on top of it. He hopped up Atlas' extended arm and landed atop the hammer. "Atlas. Thank you." He said in a solemn tone. He knelt and placed his hand against the hammer. Atlas let go and the hammer started floating upward.

"Do your duty friend. You'll be back." It may have been a construct for him but he was sentimental. The center of Atlas' chest began glowing a dark purple color that quickly expanded out toward the rest of its torso. Atlas expectantly erupted in a sudden and intense ki explosion, blasting everything around out and giving Oz a greater boost skyward atop the still formed hammer.
Things did not go according to Oz's initial plan but there was no way he was going to relent. He brought the energy pulsing in his hand down against the ground causing a stunning thunderclap in a small area to keep Vale off of him while backed up. Any intelligent person avoided long sharp objects pointed at them if they could. Oz jumped atop the hammer as Atlas reeled it back again and took up a place on its shoulder.

Minions were swarming his avatar and a new Order member had arrived. The only time they'd met previously Vale did... absolutely nothing. He was an unknown element. Perhaps the others knew a little better of what he'd be capable of. He had an idea but that didn't involve him coming anywhere near the vampire. "Alvios! Switch off and take on Vale." Oz looked warily at the swarm trying to topple his giant and getting closer to success.

Bruce would be helpful there. He'd already shown an affinity for turning the battlefield upside down. "Bruce clear my area!" Oz commanded. He braced himself as Atlas kicked around and dragged the hammer through a horde below. Some of the more adept minions were already climbing up Atlas' back using whatever means they had. Oz personally booted one in the face as they drew up to the shoulder he stood on. He had a chance he could take here to strike against Ada. So far she hadn't moved and even after all he'd tried she stood resolute in the same spot she started the battle. Now to test how hard that shield really was.

Oz stretched his arms to the sky, clenching his hands and pulling downwards like he were pulling something from orbit. The clouds above Ada suddenly spread, revealing a large circular area completely exposed to a clear sky. That descending force held no color, it just descended as a terrifying blur. Oz was going to try using amplified gravity to crush her along with her disgusting shield like a pimple.
Oz closed the distance with Ada but stopped short of reaching her. Drawing back on his right foot he placed his right fist against his hip with his left hand spread over it. It was clear Ada didn't rely on her speed. Whenever he'd seen her prior she always had a flunky or companion to cover for her or help her escape. What she had here was her skill to bubble herself with that disgusting slime. It almost faltered the last time the hammer fell. Will Dacer come this time? If he doesn't she will need to use a lot more to block this one.

Behind him, Atlas used its offhand to sweep more of the minions away from it before taking the hammer in its full grasp again and slamming down toward Ada's position. The brilliant light from before charged once more in his hand and he prepared to strike with it as soon as the hammer dropped.
