MAL86 - Glad that fight scene worked out, and their mirror match might be challenging, unless our heroes fighting Ogun can end the demonic foothold on the earthly plan :). The second part is here, so hopefully you enjoy the battle with Ogun :) . Thank you again for reading and reviewing :) .
(As I said to MAL86, this is the second part that I originally intended as one larger chapter. Still this fight is longer than the previous one, so perhaps it for the best split into two chapters :) . Not much else to say, just hope you all enjoy reading it :) ).
Chapter 22
The auditorium shook and shuddered, debris swirling around them, the air thick with tension, shimmering around Jean, as the floor shattered around her as her psionic powers broke upon and surged against the infernal power of Ogun in a deafening clash. Ogun's eyes flashed as Kitty, Rose, Kurt and John Howlett leapt at him, and he raised and clenched his other taloned hand it's hell-fire talons flaring, and Kitty felt herself suddenly snatched up with incredible force by an invisible claws of power. Locked in a vice-like grip, she was lifted into the air, held immobile even as she phased. She saw Kurt and Rose similar held in the air, Kurt attempting to teleport across the auditorium in bursts of sulphurous cloud but he remained held immobile and struggling against the infernal force that gripped him like a giant invisible hand, gasping for breath just as Kitty was.
Rose's radiant form blazed above Kitty, her form burning with shinning golden fury. Crackling with surging psionic power her wings flaring, her glowing blades searing points of intense light, as Rose began with a cry of rage to push through the Ogun's invisible hold, the air rippling and crackling around her as the infernal and psionic forces met in thunderous clashes of power, as Rose began piercing through the invisible force around her, her blades burning their way towards the demonic sorcerer. Growling at her, Ogun hell-fire eyes flared once more, and he cried, 'not this time!' His taloned hand burst into even more intense flame as Ogun clenched it even tighter, black blood dripping from his hands. The hell-fire flaring deeper and stronger Rose's now blinding form halted in the air, a pulsing star of golden light as Rose strained against his increased hold, as her power strove with Ogun's, the air reverberating with the tension as the two forces collided and struggled against each other.
Kitty gasped in pain, struggling for breath, as the power her captive began to constrict around her with impossible strength. Behind her she could sense Jean's strain across the psi-link as the psionic X-Woman was desperately attempting to push out with her telekinetic power to help them, only for the infernal power Ogun was channelling to flare and surge back at her. The whole auditorium was shaking, the floor cracking and tearing under the tension of their conflict, the air behind Kitty warping and distorting as the powers collided and wrestled against each other.
Hearing Ogun's deep demonic laughter, Kitty's vision began to darker, she thought it was over, when Logan's brother, John Howlett phased out of the floor beneath Ogun, a part of his foot becoming solid only for a moment as the luminous, white-haired ghostly figure leapt towards Ogun, the golden circlet on his head glowing. Ogun spun at the last moment, his long burning talons catching the Hellblade as it knifed down him, long dagger and talons clashing with a flare of blood-red flame. However, Howlett returned a feral grin, punching his left clawed fist through Ogun's chest, the ghostly hand phasing out the other side, Ogun's black and shrivelled heart, still pumping black blood, transfixed on Howlett's ghostly bone claws. Ogun terrible cry of agony shook the room, hell-fire flared from the demonic sorcerer's eyes and mouth, as Howlett growled at him, his feral grin growing larger and remarked, 'I learn, sorcerer. You're earlier trick won't work this time.'
Kitty felt the pressure upon her lessen and sensed Jean and Rose linking and harmonising their power again as Ogun's hold weakened with Howlett's attack. Gulping air greedily, Kitty saw Rose glow become almost blindingly white as she began to draw her psionic wings in, ready for an another burst of power, while a brilliant nimbus of similar almost blinding white pulsing power glowed through and around Jean. The two red-headed twins were uniting their power again even without touch, as Ogun cried out a curse in a guttural, almost incomprehensible demonic language, a bolt of searing dark fire blasted for from his taloned hand, striking Howlett just as he'd raised the Hellblade to plunge down through Ogun's skull, sending Howlett burning, to crash into the auditorium floor below with a roar of rage and pain. The removed and impaled heart disappeared in a flash of hell-flame with an answering glow appearing within Ogun's body.
'I'm not mere vampire demon tha… ' Ogun began gloating down towards the ghostly Howlett, readying to unleash a second blast of dark, sorcerous fire against Logan's brother, when the demonic sorcerer whipped back around hissing towards Rose and Jean. But it was too late as the psionic time twins, both now glowing like twin white-hot suns, released an almighty explosion of psionic power, shattering the air with a deafening crack the resounded across the room, Kitty feeling her teeth rattling and ears ringing as a radiant golden shock-wave tore through the room. As it blazed through her, it blew the infernal force gripping her apart like cobwebs blown apart before a strong gale, the golden wave invigorating her as Kitty dropped back to the floor, swords ready.
Kitty heard Ogun cry out as the blast smacked into him, smacking him back to slam into one of the stone columns on the stage, the stone shattering with a thunderous explosion of broken stone.
Ogun rose from the dust of the shattered stone calling out in the same demonic guttural tongue as earlier, before suddenly locking his long burning talons together, the hell-fire flaring to from a shield just as Rose tore towards him like a blazing missile crashing into his hell-fire shield with an eruption of golden and blood-red flashes of power, the hell-fire bursting apart. Rose pushed the sorcerer back in a blurring clash of psionic blades and infernal talons, the auditorium lit by constant flashes of brilliant gold and dark blood-red as the two combatants hacked, slashed, ripped, stabbed, parried and deflected at each other at blinding speed in the air.
Seeing Kurt, looking a little rough but otherwise fine, getting up, along with Logan's brother, his burns sealing and vanishing before her eyes as he phased back into his ghostly form, Kitty turned to join the attack on the demonic sorcerer, when she saw the burning symbols across the room had burst aflame with blood-red hell-fire which now blasted forth in streams of fire, meeting at the centre of auditorium. Kitty saw Jean speeding forward to the join the assault, still radiating golden light, came to an abrupt stop before the growing blood-red fireball. The fire resolved into a burning semitransparent horned figure of shadow and flame, eyes black voids gazing malevolently at the glowing figure of Jean, flaming claws tearing towards her, golden light pulsing a Jean's hands shot forward and the clawed arms of shadow and flames halted with a burst of golden and blood-red flashes of energy as Jean caught them with claws of telekinetic energy of her own. Kitty saw the air ripple and distort between the two figures, the flame figure roaring like a hungry inferno, blood-red flame bursting from it's form as the semitransparent figure attempted bare down upon Jean. Jean's own form glowed brighter, her emerald eyes flashing, the golden energy crackling against the figure ever more brightly and intensely as the two forces collided and surged against each other.
Kitty turned back and dashed towards Kurt and Howlett, attempting to re-group to join Rose in her assault on Ogun. She hoped Jean could hold off the other demonic creature the ninja-sorcerer had summoned in long enough to them to finish Ogun, the demon of shadow and flame hopefully going along with him. Just as she did, Kitty noticed the shadows moving and shifting along the auditorium floor, rushing towards them as she reached the other two. As the three came together, Rose and Ogun still locked in their furious clash overhead, the shadows erupted, belching forth writhing masses of shadowy tentacles surmounted by snapping mouths filled with fangs of burning hell-fire.
With a hiss, the shadow tentacles whipped and snapped towards her and her two companions, as Kurt vanished in a burst of sulphurous cloud into a teleporting acrobatic dance, striking out his sword, feet and fists as the shadowy coils twisted, writhed and wrapped around following and striking at the blue-furred mutant. Kitty phased beneath the tentacles that stuck towards her, diving beneath the burning mouths, and spun, unphasing her swords as she swept them in twin arcs, slicing off the snapping mouths as though dead-heading roses. The tentacles just fell back into the moving shadows, and another snapping shadowy coil shot forth to take their place. Kitty moved back, her swords a deadly dance of shinning steel and midnight black before her, heading towards Howlett, fluidly slipping through the sinuous coils themselves, parrying, cutting and hacking at the fiery jaws, she saw one latch onto Howlett, confirming her fears that the hell-fire jaws could still strike her in a phased form. Roaring in a battle-fury so similar to Logan's, the red-eyed ghostly white transparent figure of Howlett hacked down at the tentacle trying to wrap around him with the Hellblade, slicing off the burning jaws as the rest of the tentacle vanished in a burst of flame.
The two shared a look acknowledging the threat the jaws posed them as they fell back to back, coving each other blind-spots as they hacked, tore and ripped through the biting and snapping jaws, as they phased through the tentacles themselves. Kurt weaved in a teleporting dance around them, striking at the tentacles, grasping one or two that Howlett or herself missed just as it was about to strike them, holding them as they twisted and writhed in his grip, 'porting away just as he was about to be struck by their fellows, who bit into their shadowy fellows instead. The coils then fell back into shadow, locked into coiling, writhing battle.
But no matter how many they cut, the shadow tentacles kept shooting forth, whipping and snapping at them from all sides, the shadows continuing to move and follow them around. Kitty began to wonder just how long the three of them could keep up this dance before the shadows would wear them down. It also effectively achieved what Ogun wished, keeping them occupied while he fought with Rose above, the two still exchanging blows above.
Out of the corner of her eye as she moved in co-ordination with Kurt and Howlett, Kitty saw Rose above, a blazing golden angel, her emerald eyes blazing with fury, her psionic blades locked with Ogun's long burning talons as she began to push the sorcerer back. Her radiant golden wings opened wide and then snapped down, looking like they were going to chop off Ogun's demonic head. With another guttural cry, the hell-fire around his hands flared and separated into two coil of blood-red flame blazing from each of Ogun's long, elongated arms. Topped by long flaming, taloned hands they grasped the psionic wings just before they snapped shut through his neck, in a second burst of golden and blood-red energies, as psionic and infernal forces clashed anew.
The two stayed locked for a moment, Rose attempting to push in with both blades and wings, Ogun resisting her with both his taloned hands and the fiery taloned tentacles springing from him. Kitty saw cracks appearing and healing all over his body, and Kitty realised only the healing drawn from Logan was holding his body together against the amount of infernal power Ogun was channelling through himself.
With a roar, Ogun pushed Rose back enough, his knee lifted, and he snapped-kicked Rose in the face, the burning talons of his clashing with the golden energy of her armour, scoring her slightly on the shoulder as the kick sent her flying back with a cry. With a cry of triumph, Ogun brought his taloned hands together shouting forth an incarnation and another bolt of searing dark fire tore towards the shinning warrior angel. Just as the unholy flame was about to strike, Rose locked her golden wings together, halting her fall, and shielding herself as the fire struck. The psionic wings flare with golden fire against the dark flame, two forces crackling and raging against each other. The golden light pulsed through her wings, growing more and more intense against the darkness of the flames, becoming too brilliant for Kitty to look at, the whole auditorium bathed in the golden light, before the wings burst open with thunderous explosion of golden psionic power. The crack of psionic power burst Ogun's searing torrent of dark fire apart, the torrent vanishing like smoke in the wind. Rose shot up towards the roof, arcing high, ready to dive towards the demonic sorcerer once again. 'You'll have do better than that, sorcerer,' Rose taunted, 'and your time is running out.'
'Then I shall,' Ogun cried in fury. Muttering another incarnation, his burning talons erupted into a storm of burning blood-red hell-fire taloned coils that tore into the air after Rose. The shinning warrior angel dived and weaved through the flaming coils that whipped, struck and slashed at her, striking back against them with blade and wing, hacking and slashing with her crackling blades, the coils of blood-red flame blow apart in a bursts of golden power, to reform and strike again, and buffeting aside those that attempted to rake and claw Rose from behind with her wings, in cracks of golden power, golden flame searing the blood-red hell-fire. The aerial exchange continued as each shattered coil would reform and be replaced just as the shadow tentacles Kitty, Kurt and Howlett faced, as Rose soared, dived and weaved through the whipping and snapping taloned coils through the auditorium over Kitty.
Kitty kept cutting and striking back in growing frustration. While Ogun hadn't beaten them, they were all on the defensive, which worked in his favour, and she saw no way to break the impasse. Just as Kitty thought this, across the psi-link that united their strike team, Kitty felt a call from Jean, still locked deep in her physical and psychic conflict with the demonic force Ogun had summoned. Kitty could sense the strain as she wrestled against the demonic power that blazed against her mind and body. Kitty, Kurt and John Howlett heard the call to be ready, as Jean and Rose began to pulse with golden light once again, burning brighter and brighter, radiant and blinding stars in the auditorium's sky, the whole room bathed in golden light though lit by the rising Sun.
Then as the two twin twins flared with blinding brilliance, the auditorium shaking under their united power, they both let forth a joint cry that rang across the room, followed a second later as golden energy pulsed from Rose to Jean, before an ear-splitting explosion of power erupted. A golden psionic shock-wave tore from Jean, the transparent demonic figure drawing his claws back to clash together forming a flaming shield around itself at the eruption of power ripped through the auditorium. Ogun clashed his own talons together as the wave of golden psionic energy ripped towards him, the tentacles of shadow and Ogun's coils of blood-red hell-fire bursting apart and vanishing, banished by the radiant golden wave, the moving shadows fleeing before it and evaporating before it's shinning glory.
Kitty once again felt renewed and invigorated by the wave, and as Ogun was blasted back with a yell of pain as the pisonic shock-wave struck him, flinging him back towards the stage. Ogun struggled to rise, his warped and twisted form was alight with searing burns that were beginning to heal with the link he'd forced on Logan, as Rose tore at him like a flaming arrow, speeding through the sky. With a crack of golden power, her psionic blades buried deep into the demonic sorcerer's chest, ripping a howl of agony from him, her golden wings flashing towards him which Ogun, still howling caught in his burning talons.
As the two grappled, Ogun gurgled a command, and glowing spectral snakes launched from his mouth, shooting at the radiant angel, latching onto her and biting down. Rose gave out a cry, and plummeted, crashing to the ground, her golden form beginning to fluctuate, struggling as she struck down at the glowing dark serpents, which vaporised in blasts of golden power. However, Rose remained struggling against the effects of their attack, her power still fluctuating, and Kitty could see the golden nimbus disappear from Jean, as the demon renewed it's assualt upon her. Ogun laughed and brought his hands together to blast Rose once more now her guard was down, but Kurt had already disappeared in a flash of brimstone and reappeared launching himself at Ogun, grappling the sorcerer, as both Kitty and Howlett leapt towards demonic ninja-sorcerer.
'Hitting a lady while she is down is hardly gentlemanly, Herr Ogun,' Kurt said as they wrestled, just before Ogun twisted and gripped the teleporting X-Man's arm with his own taloned right hand, the hell-fire blazing. Kurt's face grimaced as it seared his arm, and then cried out as dark shadow began to course through his form, suddenly weakening as Ogun sneered back, 'fool, making cracks when you should be fighting.'
'No!' Kitty cried reaching them, and lashed out with the Honour Sword of Clan Yashida, hacking off the hand gripping her friend, as she thrust the Black Blade home into Ogun's chest. Ogun twisted towards her, catching the second cut with the Honour Sword, a new taloned hand of flame forming from his severed arm.
'Don't feel left out, Miss Pryde,' Ogun laughed cruelly, and Kitty's eyes went as the hand she cut off flew towards her, gripping her around her throat, beginning to choke her. Just as Ogun clawed talon struck at her, Howlett was jumping in front of her, catching the cut with a grunt of pain, as he punched up with his clawed fist, and hammered home the Hellblade, punching it into Ogun's head, with a wet crack.
Ogun howled once more, his eyes flaring with fury, and Kitty could see the cracks and rips tearing and healing constantly through his form as the demonic sorcerer yelled forth yet another incantation and his eyes blazed red, blasting Howlett and Kitty getting hit by the aftershock behind him. Kitty let forth a choke of agony as the shock of the blast rang through her body, matched by the larger howl from John Howlett as both were sent crashing to the ground. Her eyes darkening, she saw Howlett was burnt and blistered, his form smoking, cooked muscle and ribs exposed, only the jointly phased forms, and the durability granted her by the Black Blade, saving them from being obliterated by the blast of power Ogun had struck them with.
Kitty had landed beside Rose, still struggling and semi-conscious. The red-head saw Kitty struggling with Ogun's hand around her throat and thrust out with one of her psionic blades, piercing the hand's palm a burst of power. The hand sprung open as though it's animating power hand been cut. Kitty breathed in greedy gulps of air as Rose lifted the hand into the air, golden power pulsing into the hand, and it burst in golden flames, writhing like a burnt spider before bursting into ashes.
Ogun hovered above them, wounded but holding together, and crying out a command the shadows surged around them once more, wrapping around them in chains of shadow, before he gestured towards Jean with his remaining hand, hell-fire blazing forth. Kitty could feel Jean's renewed and greater strain already under the summoned demon's assault as Ogun's wave of power united with the demon crashing into her defences. She held for a moment, the infernal forces crashing against her psychic defences, before with a shattering crack they broke, and Jean was flung to the ground with a cry.
Ogun laughed maniacally as Jean reached out her hand, only to gasp, 'how?' before being yanked into the air, past the flaming demon towards the rest of the group, even as Kitty felt claws of invisible force locking around her, adding to the shadow restrains upon them.
'How,' Ogun laughed triumphantly, even as his form was breaking and reforming before their eyes, 'with the union between you and your doppelgänger over there broken,' the demonic sorcerer nodded towards Rose, 'I with my demonic helpers,' gesturing to the ghostly demon of shadow and flame floating above, 'have broken through your defences my young psychic. Your powers are now mine to command, which is why event the projection against magical assault some have taken will not avail you.' Pulling the Hellblade out of his skull, he threw it back towards Howlett's burnt but healing form, 'and there is little point using that blade on me. As a nexus of the powers of hell in this place, I'm already there as much as here, so that blade is sending me nowhere.'
'Now,' the sorcerer continued tiredly, exhaustion evident in his voice, as Kitty felt the combined strength of shadow chains and Jean's telekinesis beginning to tighten and constrict on her once more, 'I shall finish you off and let the demons pick your souls clean and finishing claiming Logan-san as my vessel.'
Rose began laughing, her form still flickering, but once more coherent, and replied, 'no demon. It's you that is finished, you're out of time.'
Ogun turned to her, before suddenly letting out an ear-splitting scream of agony, dropping to the floor, crashing onto his knees, the shadow pulsing around him rippled and fluctuated as a golden energy pulsed within him. The shadow energy burst and fled, and Kitty felt the telekinetic force of Jean vanish along with the chains of shadow, as a golden light burst out of the back of Ogun flashing back towards the stage. Ogun seemed to diminish, and his howl increased, the healed wounds re-opening all across his body, his body cracking and tearing before them. Kitty heard his howl match by a familiar one from the stage, one of battle-rage as a golden light blazed brillaint behind the sorcerer, and Kitty heard the familiar sound of rending metal. The demon above them gave out a roar of frustrated rage, as it vanished in a burst of flame, leaving only smoke in it's wake.
Kitty saw a second flash explode from the twisting form of the demonic werewolf, as it let out a keening cry joining that of Ogun. In a blast of light ripping from the demonic lupine form, as it screamed, body shattered and bleeding by the blast, black blood pouring onto the stage, as the light erupting from it shot forth to crash into the floor besides them. It faded and resolved into the form of a brown-haired lupine werewolf-like form that reminded her of a male Wolfbane.
The next moment as Ogun attempted to struggle to his feet, the battle-howl renewed again, and Kitty saw the blur of movement as something leapt from the stage and heard a loud heavy thud as it landed behind the sorcerer. Ogun's form spasmed as three blazing points of golden fire burst searing from his chest, followed immediately by another three that burst out through his throat and Kitty felt her heart leap for joy as she saw Logan emerge from behind Ogun, eyes blazing. 'Told you I was comiin' Ogun, an' I find you tryin' to kill Rose an' my friends. You ain't gonna be hurtin' anyone ever again, my old master,' with a roar Logan lifted him into the air, as Rose power blazed back to life in a brilliant burst of radiant light. She shot forward, hurtling towards the demonic sorecer, slamming home her own blades, meeting Logan's own. Golden blades met shinning golden claws with an almighty crack and flash of blinding light. Golden light erupting in a blast of psionic power from within Ogun's chest and throat, bursting out in blast of golden fire pouring out of his mouth and eyes, erupting from the cracks, wounds and tears along his shattered body, blazing from his hands, overwhelming and extinguishing his hell-fire in it's radiant fury.
Golden power keep pouring into the twisted and elongated form of Ogun from Logan and Rose, until he was ablaze in brilliant golden light, lit up a fusion torch. Then with a joint battle-cry with Rose, Logan brought his claws clashing against Rose's blades once more, and Ogun's form blasted apart in a deafening flash of golden lightning, shattering and vaporising before Kitty's eyes as she struggled back to her feet. The flaming bits of the sorcerer's body scattered and crumbled into ash, consumed by the furious golden fire. His red-horned skull landing with a thud and rolling on the floor, shifting back into the form a red demonic mask Kitty was all to familiar with, one she had worn herself when possessed by the demonic ninja-sorcerer.
Then in the moment of silence following the destruction of Ogun's form, punctuated only by the moaning of the demonic undead werewolf, everyone gathered themselves up. They were a little battered and worse for wear, but smiling tiredly in victory as they got to their feet, looking towards Logan in relief. His clothes were ripped and torn, leaving him shirtless and half-naked, and he looked like he had been dragged to hell and back, but otherwise Kitty noted with immense relief and gratitude he seemed fine. He and Rose seemed lost, looking into each other's eyes, communicating silentlywith one other, as Logan's golden claws flashed back into his forearms, their glow fading as Rose's golden armour and wings faded back into her body, the warrior angel shifting back into the lady.
The next moment Rose launched herself into Logan's arms slamming into him, his arms catching her and embracing her tightly rocking with the force of her embrace as Rose her arms wrapping around his neck. 'Easy, darlin', I'm still, mhmm… ' Logan began before Rose silenced whatever else he had to say, her hands drifting into his hair and pulling him down into a fiery, passionate and soul-searing kiss, the red-head pressed herself tightly against him, Logan's arms tightening around her, cocooning her in his arms. For a moment the couple stayed locked, lost in their passionate and loving kiss, forgetting all around them, until Jean began coughing a little awkwardly and Logan and Rose broke apart, Logan just smirking a little while Rose looked a little sheepish and embarrassed.
But despite that she turned back to Logan, caressing his face in her hands, 'I thought I lost you James. I'm so sorry for leaving you alone.'
'Nothin' to be sorry about, love.' Logan replied. 'Besides, you never left me alone. I only made it out of there because we were together, an' always will be.'
Turning his head, they all followed Logan's eye towards the new werewolf-like figure rising to his feet, Kitty's hands tightening on her swords as she retrieved them. 'How you doin' Tom?' Logan asked.
The wolf grinned back, 'better runt. Gave ol' Pa exactly the pastin' he deserved. I'm finally free of that ol' bastard, an' all his evil influence.' The wolf turned, and the wolf form faded into a form a tall man dressed in old turn of the century trapper clothes and a wolf-fur cloak, with wild dark hair, with side-burns and a moustache. 'Huh,' the man said, touching his face, 'no more scars here neither.'
Logan smiled tiredly back at the man with Rose in his arms, as the man turned to her, nodding to her, 'hello Rose. It's been a long time.'
'Hello Tom,' Rose replied smiling at him, 'I'm glad to see my childhood friend back.'
'You an' me both,' Tom chuckled back, 'I feel free for the first time I can remember.'
Kitty saw Logan turn his gaze quizzically to John Howlett, noting his healing form, and the ghostly bone claws retracting, and Kitty saw Logan take a sniff saying, 'I feel like I should know you bub, but I can't recall where from.'
Howlett smiled back at him, 'we meet a long time ago James. You were quite small then, little brother.'
Logan's eyes went wide, and he was about to say something else when the mask of Ogun flared to life again, eyes glowing with renewed hell-fire just as the bloodied and shattered form of the moaning undead werewolf attempted to struggle to it's feet. 'It will not end like this, Logan-san. I will not let it! Come Thomas-san, you have one more use,' a hollow voice from within the mask of Ogun intoned, before the mask burst into a ball of hell-fire, shooting towards the stage and striking the moaning undead werewolf in it's head. The X-Team spun back into a defensive formation, the metallic staccato sound of Logan's claws ringing as they burst forth, blazing anew with golden fire. Rose soared into air above him in a burst of golden light, wings, armour and blades flashing back into existence, Jean flying beside her, ablaze with golden power as the red-headed twins now effortlessly synchronised their power.
Beside Kitty Howlett grasped the Hellblade and his bone claws burst forth as he shifted back into his ghostly luminous form, eyes glowing red, as Kitty fluidly shifted into a defensive stance, light and dark blades held ready. Kurt flashed besides Logan in a burst of sulphur, and one know as Tom morphed back into a brown-furred werewolf growling angrily at the figure before them.
Ogun's hell-fire had branded itself into the bloodied and wounded demonic werewolf, and it howled as the fire reformed into a version of Ogun's mask fused into the lupine head. Blood-red hell-fire blazed through the body and it increased in size, becoming more serpentine and elongated, more legs bursting from it, the arms growing longer. New insectoid arms burst forth, growing out of the body alongside them, with snapping powerful pincers. The wolf-head growing larger, the fangs enlarging, claws, pincers and fangs bursting with hell-fire as the massive twisted creature roared down at them.
The combined voice of Ogun and another, that of the demonic werewolf cried down, 'if we cannot have your life Logan-san, we'll still have our revenge. You will all die here.'
Kitty saw her mentor and father figure just grin ferally back at the large monster, 'you're already done, Ogun. The power you had is gone, now you're just another another demonic monster for the choppin'. So let's get to it, let's go to claw-city together as we take both o' you demonic losers to a world o' hurt, an' send you back screamin' to hell where you belong. 'Cause this is it, my ol' master. This time I'm makin' sure that mask of you're is destroyed for good. You an' Thomas both ain't ever hurtin' anyone ever again.'
The warped monstrosity roared and rushed down upon them, as Kitty phasing dashed towards him, aware of Logan leaping into battle with an answering battle-howl, the radiant warrior angel of Rose soaring above him. A mirroring anger to Logan's burned in Kitty's heart. She would see this sorcerer gone from their lives once and all, if it was the last thing she did. A deadly look settled on her face as she let forth a battle-roar that mirrored her mentor's as the strike team engaged the demonic Ogun one last time in battle.
