Closed Tales of TCoD

((you...posted twice.))
Oh, good god.

An enemy..stupid. Why hadn't she trained? Grabbing her knifewrench, Typhoon's coffee-brown eyes darted around, wondering where the dark one was.
 
Midnight caught a ball of the energy and started playing with it. "Fun, Fun, Fun," After messing around with it he stuck it in a jar and put it away~ Then a surge of thoughtweft came out of him and froze everyone in the base other then zora, arylett, and himself. "Can't have anyone ruining the show now can we?"
 
Oh...

So it was going to be like that?

She was so tired... so tired of being the weak one... the tiny little mentored Arylett. Trained... a child... weak... they had always looked down upon her. Zora had always... but no. She was alone now. And she was strong... she was strong without them. They had always looked down upon her...

But now was her chance. Now was her chance to prove herself to her old mentor...

She was not a child. And she was no longer going to hide... like a coward. Like some stupid coward!

Arylett reappeared, her expression no longer afraid... but inscrutable, a red aura encasing her. Was this... the ultimate... the ultimate darkness...?

She gazed upon Zora and Berserk!Zora...

No more hiding.

Arylett ran towards them, head on, insanely blasting crimson beams of light at every single target she could see, her curls themselves fizzling with this red energy. The aura that surrounded her took a doglike shape. She leaped at Berserk!Zora, her hand outstretched, the red aura forming a claw made of crimson energy. Arylett hurtled towards her, attempting to slash with this claw.
 
Her back turned, the berserker grinned. She could sense the darkness... It felt good... She whipped around, blocking the claw with her claymore and twisting it upward attempting a brutal uppercut.

The real one, however, had dove behind and raised her poolstick again. She swung it, shutting her eyes tightly.
 
As the claw twisted, her own arm seemed to twist rather grotesquely. She cringed and shrieked shrilly, as blood splattered all over her clothes...

Then she was hit from behind with the poolstick and shrieked even louder...

No.

No!

This wasn't going to be over so quickly!

No yet... no surrender...

The red aura intensified as she glared at Zora and the berserker with a pained hatred, her arm still bleeding freely. Arylett was panting fiercely, she looked badly maimed.

She screamed insanely, batting away all the pain in her body, batting away her bleeding scars as if nothing.

In Arylett's good hand (the one on the good arm) appeared a rather large sword, made of that same red light that created the claw.

Crying and shrieking, she swung the sword in Zora and the berserker's direction, blinded by tears. She didn't care anymore... she didn't care...

"GO ON, FINISH ME ZORA! IF I AM WEAK... THEN KILL ME... KILL ME! FINISH ME!"
 
Midnight walked between the pair and said "Zora... Leave her... The only one who needs to be killed is evoli..."
Then he turned around and picked arylett up and took her out of the room towards the infirmary.
 
(Umm... if I may interupt... Zora's not REALLY going to kill me. Could you umm... I don't want to sound rude but... just let the fight take place?)
 
((Really, I'm not. She'll consider it, but she won't.))

"Traitors must suffer!!" Zora roared, before stumbling back. One of the slashes had cut straight across her stomach. Pretty deeply too, it almost looked as if it could cost her if she ignored it. Which she did. She passed it off as nothing as she watched the berserker match blow after blow before getting cut across the arm.

"You can take her..." the berserker growled, backing away and vanishing, "She's weak..."

"Teacher versus student... who here is the more experienced...?" Zora urged herself, unscrewing her poolstick and revealing her cattle prod. It'd be more inaccurate, but... she swung it anyway.
 
Grabbing the fiery lizard to her, Typhoon slowly etched away, pressing into the wall.

Random Thoughts..don't fail me now!

((If you stepped in between two berserkly-fighting...er, fighters, you'd get hurt. and pretty damn badly, too.))
 
Arylett shrieked more, feeling her body being subjected to its limits. The berserker was slashing at everything she had... ripping her apart. Slowly... she was dying. Blood spurted from all of the gashes.

But she still refused to give up.

"It..." She gasped, coughing out a bit of blood... eww... she was afraid... damn scared... but it... it felt good. Arylett felt a rush... it was the best she had felt in ages. And the most terrible at the same time. Her body was falling apart. Arylett held herself up with the sword as support. "...Ends here... finish me Zora... I am ready... for death."

Her body fizzled with a last bit of red energy. The sword in her hand vanished as she managed to avoid most of the cattleprod, but get hit by the very end of it. It grazed her chest. Arylett shrieked a bit more.. but this pain... was nothing... it was nothing. The tears fell down her face.

"One... last one..." The energy intensified once more as she eminated a massive wave of red energy at Zora, her bloody and wound tormented body falling down to the ground with this last bit of energy.
 
The energy burned her badly, especially at the edges of Zora's already nasty wound, making it larger and more painful. It looked like Zora was about to collapse, but she staggered up snd raised the prod.

"Th-this is what y-you..."

...
...She couldn't do it. Not her own student. The one she'd trained personally. The edges of her vision blackened as she lowered the prod slowly, then she finally fell over. Chimani trotted up to her, whining. She pawed at her owner, her friend.

"They'll both die if we don't do something..."
 
Her body merely laid there, her body resting motionless in a deep dark crimson pool of blood. The red liquid was in her curls... the aura had faded completely.

She looked badly maimed, gashes and cuts all over.

End of the line, Arylett Dawnsborough...
 
((Gaaaaa, wait!))

ES with her group was exploring.

Was there really an enemy?

ES got ready to launch any spell that came to her and Goldenfur was tensed as well, in a fighting position.
 
(Long story short: Zora and Arylett got into an epic fight, both nearly killed each other, and are currently bleeding to death and unconscious.)
 
((Yay being ignored!))

Time Psyduck looked around. It seemed familiar somehow, as if he had been there before. A deep blue sky and certain people seemed to jog his memory. He suddenly began hearing shrieks and he dashed towards the source of the sound. As he ran it hit him in a sudden flash
This is the cave of dragonflies!
He also noted that his new body was faster than the old one - it had much longer legs. He came upon what seemed to have been a fight scene. both the combatants were laying on the ground unconscious.
"What is going on here?" he demanded of the people stood around the unconscious shapes.
