Chapter 1, Part 10: Festival of the Gods
No OC, but a battle!
Abilene made her way out of the cave and walked around for a little. The rest were on her heels. She walked until she stopped at an unusual sight. She knelt down and inspected it: a rock that was extremely hot. Abilene knew it was hot because she touched it and then it ended up burning her palm. The pain this gave off reminded her of the time when they fought that Fire Magician. What was his name?
Her inspection was interrupted when a feminine voice was heard from probably a few meters away. She couldn't hear the voice, though. She turned toward her companions as she asked, "did you hear that? That voice?" She asked with a tight voice.
All of them nodded at the same time. Abilene stood up from where she was and walked toward the voice. However, she made a wrong step and ended up stepping and breaking a stick, making a crunch sound. The voice stopped, and Abilene felt two dagger glares in her direction.
Lin narrowed her eyes as she raised her staff. Fire started surrounding the orb in the center and she mouthed something that Abilene couldn't catch. She then threw the ball of fire toward the silhouette of a girl and a boy, who looked like he was knocked unconscious. Abilene quietly made her way behind the two figures so she could see them clearly. The boy then struck my memory. He was the boy whom attacked her on her way back to the cave. The Fire Magician. What's he doing in a place like this?
Abilene then made her way back to see whether the fire ball Lin threw affected the girl. To her dismay, all the girl did was hold her hand out in front of her and caught the fiery ball as if it was just a normal beach ball or something. The girl then brought it right back to Lin and the others, however it seemed to have more power in it as it flew right back.
All of them ended up screaming and then a huge wind blew due to the force of the fire ball hitting the ground. They all ended up flying to some place, and that's when Abilene lost consciousness, just for a little while. When she opened her eyes, she realized the girl who deflected Lin's fire ball was right in front of her, and glaring at her with eyes like hell fire.
Abilene P.O.V.
"Who are you!?" I shouted. The girl in front of me had layered red hair that went down to her waist. She had orange or red eyes...they were mixed together, more like that. She wore a dress with warm colors: red, orange and yellow that was a little blinding and can be dizzy to look at with all the mix of colors. She wore orange boots going to her knees.
She smirked as she replied, "I don't need to tell my name." She grabbed a red key as the tip glowed a golden color as she sliced the air. Immediately after that motion a red magic circle appeared. Red particles seemed to float up and eventually formed into a figure. When the particles separated and disappeared, it revealed a boy most likely older than me: He had orange hair, black sclera and bloody red eyes, black armor and in both his hands were identical red blades. Behind him intimidated me the most. There were two fiery swords on his back, chained with rusted out chains and the chains also tied up a mini skeleton.
I gritted my teeth in an attempt to stop my trembling legs and my sweating palms, however it just kept coming. I was really intimidated from this guy. I whispered, "you're...Luther?" Is he a monster? That was my first impression: he was a monster.
Luther smirked as he ignored me and without turning to his key-wielder, he said, "are you seriously telling me to defeat this human? You sure give me such boring missions."
He emphasized the word 'human' very heavily, telling me that he himself is not human. I asked quietly, "what are you? A monster?" I backed away, only slightly. I don't want to show Luther nor the fiery-haired girl that I was afraid and wanted to retreat, wanted to run until they were completely out of my sight.
He didn't reply as he lunged toward me, his blades outstretched in front of him. Luckily I managed to dodge the blades...just barely. He cut a little of my hair with his blades.
The fiery haired girl grinned as she said, "a human defeating a god? Heh...I'd like to see you try."
"And that's what I'll do...!" I replied as I put up a barrier within me made of crystal and lunged toward Luther. I don't know if this is enough, I highly doubt it is even near enough, however, all I need to do is defeat a god. I won't let my pride nor the others' pride be crushed by someone like him.
Vivian P.O.V.
Even though she claims she specializes in water...what is this power? I tried again and created a tornado in hopes of blowing the girl in front of me away. Where are the others? Am I alone...? Do I have to fight like this...no one around, nothing useful around?
"That won't work twice against me!" The girl said as she created a water barrier, making the tornado diminish. Her defense looked low...she had her breasts covered with blue silk. Okay, let me make this description quick, she looked like some gypsy with a transparent ribbon in both her hands and the ribbon arched over her. Also her left eye was closed for some odd reason.
"If wind magic won't work against someone like you, then I'll just use my sword alone!" I shouted as I unsheathed my sword and pointed it at the water girl.
The water girl grinned as she stated, "now this is getting interesting." Her hand lingered toward her waist and she reached into her pocket and her fingers entwined around a sky blue key as she shouted, "now it's my turn!"
She sliced the key down and the tip glowed, and then a blue magic circle appeared on the ground right in front of me. Blue particles then clumped together, eventually forming into a figure. The particles then dissipated and revealed a girl with light pink hair with light blue tips. She had both her eyes closed and her fingers from both hands entwined together, as if she was praying. She had light skin tone, though not exactly pale, and had on a white dress with blue tips that covered her feet. She also had silver armor from her breasts down to her waist, and golden armor covering her shoulders and her neck. On the shoulders' armor was a blood red jewel that was implanted on the armor. She also wore a cape (or it looks like a cape) and it consisted of mostly white, however also had blue and purple jewels on the cape. She had a golden ribbon sash that was so long that four strips were hanging on the sides, each one had a huge red jewel near the edge. She wore a crown that was mostly red with gold decor and on the very top was a dark purple jewel shaped somewhat like an egg. She had huge angel wings and surrounding her were two rings of water criss-crossing each other.
...She was really intimidating me right now.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"Phee. Tyrant Goddess Phee." She replied, "I don't even know why I'm introducing myself to such inferior species." She sighed.
"What. Did. You. Say...!?" I gritted my teeth, attempting to restrain myself so she could keep going. I was at least nicer to her than she was to me.
She indeed repeated what she said, "I said: I don't even know why I'm introducing myself to such inferior species."
I looked blankly at her and pointed at her saying, "you take me very literally."
She clenched her teeth as she stated, "enough chit-chat." She opened her eyes (the color was red, a very bloody red) and she raised her hands as the water glowed and seemed to form into one into her hands. The water then disappeared and then ice surrounded me in all directions.
She then went back to her initial position, as if nothing had happened at all. Now that annoyed the crap out of me.
Rollun P.O.V.
"If you're not going to attack, then would you like me to take the first move?" She was a completely unemotional girl: the only emotion she had on her face this whole entire time so far was smiling. All she did was smile, and it really gives me the chills, her smile. She seemed to have a dress shirt under a dark green loose tank top. She wore a light green skirt with a green sash and on the bow was a flower. She had light green hair and was pulled into a side-ponytail. She also had leafy green eyes.
"Celestial Magician, am I correct?" I stated, "then I have a little request, mind hearin' it out?" I stated almost monotonously.
She replied, "okay."
"I want to battle one of your Spirits."
She replied, "fine with me." She grabbed a seaweed green key and sliced the air and then a green magic circle appeared. A girl probably younger than me appeared before me. She wore a red and pink dress, had dark green hair with white highlights and pink tips. She had pointed fingernails and in her left hand she held some kind of rapier. She had a black sclera and light pink irises. Her lower part of her body seemed to merge with a big humongous carnivorous plant.
I smiled as I thought to myself: Well, this is going to be an interesting battle.
"Nalmika." The girl behind the carnivorous plant girl stated.
"'Nalmika?'" I repeated.
"That's her name."
So I'll be facing Nalmika...this will be quite an interesting battle.
"Rollun. I specialize in dice magic." I held up a few pieces of dice as I said, "I'm not holdin' back any longer."
"Glad to hear it, now let's start, shall we?" Nalmika grinned.
"Yup. We'll start. Right here, right now." Both of us smiled as we lunged toward each other.
? P.O.V.
I felt this power. A strong power.
The Fire that burns within, and leaves the world in ashes, a fiery maniac,
she may be called.
The pureness of Water, which can take the body too,
will leave her victim
in an icy pit.
The Earth sleeps within her arms,
her legs, her head as well.
The tree, the ground, the bushes, the swamps,
all will do to beat the victim
to a pulp, yes that is.
The Thunder sparks within
the arms and legs
as fast as the lightning,
as clever as the wind.
Where thunder is heard, the chant is heard,
the only remnants is your bones, that is.
The holiness of light
which sweeps the darkness
from Hell to Heaven.
The seraph call
is not to be heard
however is to be seen
by the victim indeed
The darkness that is always there
The abyss that feeds on the sins
There is no place to go
except your hellish crime
Come one, come all,
to your eternal home
Your very own home where you suffer all day long
When these are combined they make a festival
The Festival of the Gods
Amuse them
Entertain them
by going to war
all the bloodshed will go far,
for the Festival of the Gods
begins here and now.
Soon...the Festival will begin. Blood will be shed, for the six have already combined their powers.
It can't be helped now. After all, there is no way to stop it, until they are satisfied. If they ever have any satisfaction.
The Goddess of Creation, Maxwell
Cardes the Malevolent
The Divine Emperor, Zevalhua
Alfa Dilith...
...are you satisfied?
A.N.: So how was it? Good? Bad? Anyhow, I don't have much to say here, other than the other half (Thunder, Light and Dark) battles will be in the next chapter, so if you're wondering about the poem, it's some...let's see...'prophecy', maybe. Also if you're not familiar with Brave Frontier's Zevalhua and Alfa Dilith, there the real bad guys in the actual game, however you'll find out more about them later. If you're wondering who the ? is, that...I'll have to leave you guys hanging.
Anyways, favorite if you like it, follow for more updates, and review and tell me how you feel!
