HLPRP part 13
Just like ikaros had done in sohara's dream world, astrea charged at the melan angeloids with reckless abandon , particularly at her own clone. She tried a couple of fast punches, but melan astrea dodged them like they were nothing and sent the real astrea in reverse with a mere head-butt. The force of said contact was so hard that astrea's own momentum caused her to do a few back flips before landing.
''astrea!'' the others screamed as they came to their friend's aid.
''im ok guys cough* thanks'' astrea said.
''that really hurt! Danmmit!'' astrea said as she held her forehead in pain.
After checking up on their fellow angeloid , hiyori and nymph were the next ones to rush at their evil incarnations , but like astrea they both payed for doing so. Nymph circled around melan nymph at top speed , creating the illusion that there was more than one nymph, hoping this would throw off her copy and create an opening so she could fire a massive eye beam at her opponent. melan nymph was ready for this though , as she waited until nymph stopped and grabbed her by the throat and threw her to the ground with as much speed and force as gravity would allow.
''kohaaah!'' nymph uttered out as she spit up some internal blood as she landed.
Melan nymph followed this up by brutally burying her feet into nymph's rib cage, causing her to cough up some more blood. Sohara stepped in and was able to land a punch to the face , thwarting melan nymph's attack and saving the real nymph for the moment.
''thanks sohara'' nymph said.
''no problem'' sohara said.
''what's going on here? Nymph asked as she stood up and clutched her ribs.
'' we're supposed to be at least evenly matched with them if not stronger'' nymph said.
''you mean all that training we did was for nothing? Nymph asked as she struggled to move.
''no that's not it'' tomoki said as he came over to check on nymph as well.
''the master of synapse was just one step ahead of us that's all'' tomoki said.
''he anticipated we would be training for this, so he upped the ante on the power of his melan angeloids as much as he could'' tomoki said.
That explanation seemed like the understatement of the century, because every time ikaros and friends tried to make the first move their fake counterparts would beat them to it.
''argh! Hiyori screamed in pain as she struggled to get back to her feet.
this is not good'' sohara said.
''not even sohara is a match for them head on unbelievable'' sugata said.
All hope seemed lost as it looked like the war would be over just as quick as it started. then tomoki came up with a few suggestions to try to change the tide of battle.
''ikaros use one of the cards to change our location'' tomoki said.
''make it somewhere where there are no civilians or animals around'' tomoki added.
''yes master'' ikaros managed to say,
She was in pain like the others, but ikaros was still able to pull out a transport card and change the battlefield to a rocky mountain like area where there were no people or animals to get in the way.
''good job ikaros'' tomoki said.
''now transport sugata , tomoko and mikato to sugata's place'' tomoki said.
''are you sure that's a good idea tomoki? Sugata asked.
''yes im sure'' tomoki said.
''but tomoki you could get hurt! Tomoko said concerned.
''I'll be fine'' tomoki said.
''I have sohara , astrea , ikaros . nymph, chaos and hiyori all here with me'' tomoki explained.
''don't worry tomoko we'll protect him we promise'' hiyori said.
''yeah and we'll find a way to beat these fakes'' sohara said.
''alright'' tomoko said reluctantly.
''go ahead ikaros we're ready'' mikato said.
''be careful tomoki'' tomoko said.
Tomoki looked back at the three and nodded, ensuring to them he would be safe, before turning his attention back to the matter at hand. With the observers out of the way and nothing else to distract him, tomoki gave the hurting warriors his next suggestion.
Look at those fakes , standing there waiting for us to make the next move , alright lets show these things and the master of synapse how its done! Tomoki thought to himself.
alright you guys I know its early…but its time to activate your Pandora modes.
