"Identified Mutant. Priority target Azul." The Sentinel said. That sent a few warning bells off in Azul's head. "Alerting all patrol in area."
'On second thought, we are in deep shit.' Psylocke looked at the large amount of Snetinels in the area. But a ripple next to her got her attention. 'That feels nice.' A pulse of magic came over her.
'Your attack, defence thinking process, ability to heal has kicked up a notch.' Azul thought to her. He then split into two. One dressed completely in black armor. His Dark Cosmos fully out. 'Sunstrider will stay here with you. i am heading to deal with everything out there.'
The Azul in Cerebrus armor changed into Obelisk the Tormentor. Crushing Sentinels as he ran through the ruins of Japan. Psylocke had no idea what to think. But the man who felt almost identical to Azul caused her to not joke around.
'You feel dangerous.' Psyclocke thought to him. She then jumped up and fired a few psy bolts out. 'I can feel a deep connection with you. You arent stopping me from reading you at all.'
'I do not care if you do. My mind is deep, try not to get lost.' Sunstrider smashed a pair of Sentinel's with a Biotic Slam. It was unfethered and not restrained. Which increased the damage ten fold. 'I know a lot about you Psylocke, it is only polite for you to learn about me. You are alos a Pather. So good luck with that.'
"Cease and desist actions mutant." A sentintal stood over Sunstrider. Arms outstretched as cables wrapped around. It was attempting to drain him. " You are needed for processing.."
System: Willpower Check 45 Pass
"Humph!" Sunstrider snorted. Crushing a large majority of the cables. He grabbed hold and sent the D.G. cells into it. "Go and spread!" Bass traveled with the D.G. cells to link the Sentinels. "Thunderbolt, 9!" Raising his hand the spell fired.
"Kaacchhooow!" The air cried as lighting left his hands. Blasting through two more Sentinels core area. They dropped to the ground tryine to repair themselves.
"Vanishing World!" Hands out, Sunstider removed everything in one section expending a large portion of his magic. The large black sphere burned through the area for miles. "Ahh, therapy."
"Hiyah!" Psyclocke backflipped off a Sentinel. Her foot extending out like a sword.
"Bzzt!" A large cut appeared along the chest of the Sentinel. But it was not done. It fired a energy beam from it's hands. 'Shield, do not fail me now!' Making a psychic shield to protect herself, she was blasted into a building.
"Bam!" The shield held thanks to the speel that was cast on her. Psylocke stood up and ran out firing a psychic crossbow at the nearest Sentinel. A barrage of bolts ripping though it. To the side, Bass had taken control of a few others. A total of ten Sentinels were attacking and crushing the others.
.
Azul-
.
"Inferno.. Force!" Azul gathered heat from the area and compressed it into a large Fireball. His arms alight even in his Obelisk form with Flame Fist. "Bye bye!" With a launch, the nearby Sentinels were melted. But not all of them.
A weird silver white substance appeared. it formed into Gambit first then several tentacles pulled the down Sentinels over to him. Azul didn't wait at all as he attacked.
"Thundaga!" Haised raised to the heavans a giant cloud appeared. A bolt of compressed sound rained down strikicking Gambit. 'What the hell tis this thing?'
"Babump! Babump!" A few psychic pulls to his left alerted him to some people coming towards them. With a wave, Azul teleported them near Psylocke.
"Take care of them, one of them feels like you." Coming down with his clasped togethor, he smashed the gathering Sentinels. 'To many Cpu's to crush at once. But at least this will weaken it a little.'
.
- A few minutes before Inside-
.
"Get them out of there, hurry!" Nightcrawler said. He was teleporting around turning off power as fast he could. The others doing everyhting they could to speed up the process.
One mutant singing to the cages causing them to unlock.
Another poking the lock mechanism to cause it to open.
Some others planted bombs to get them open.
"Freedom!" One man yelled. he turned into pure energy and shot off. Much to the others suprise. "Best thing would be to run before the Judge get here!"
"You could help you big idiot!" One of the supporters yelled. The man did not stop. Hurrying to free the others, was all on their minds now. They did not want to meet this judge. "Kurt hurry up!"
"I am trying. Just give me a minute." Nightcrawler ripped out a few more cables and the lights went out. Immediately red lights came on illuminating the place. "That should make it harder for the Sentinels to make it here."
As they freed the remaining people things turned for the worse. A part of the wall strted to glow.
"Boooom!" The wall then exploded for some reason. Out of the new hold mutant appeared but had a strange device on his chest. It was Gambit dressed in a white metalic clothing.
"Gambit.. what did they do to you?" Nightcrawler was beside him self. They wonder what happen to him all this time. This would cost him as Gambit threw a few cards at him. "What are you doing?!"
"Booom!" The cards exploded sending Nightcrawler to the side. He tried to teleport but he was to addled to do it properly.
"Thump!" A partial teleport had him reappearing by a wall hitting his head. To groggy to move in time for the next set of cards.
"Boooom!" Another explosion went out. Luckily the support was good enough to help at least. A jelly membrane protected Nightcrawler.
"Get up already!" The mutant yelled. "I cannot hold this!" Whatever they did to Gambit kicked him up another notch. Several more cards went out blasting the area.
"Ahhhh!" The supporte team and captives screamed. They ran for the nearest exit. But something formed in front of them. Liquid metal that composed into Gambit.
"Ohh crap." Nightcrawler said groggy. He grabed hold and Teleported them all as far as he could. Which happen to be just outside. But in the air. "Ahhhh!"
"You scatterbrain!" Someone yelled.
"Lift." Sunstrider raised his hands high creating a biotic blanket that pushed into them. Infused with Mist Fist kept them from feeling to much pain. 'Hmm, that person the screamed earlier is to calm. Let's see what he knows.'
"Ughh." The supporter who yelled earlier was invaded by his pores. Sunstrider went through his mind. Not gently after finding a few compromising things. " I do not feel so well."
'A traitor, of course. I have just the thing for you.' Setting them all down, a spell was infused in the body of the traitor. A little gift when he went back to report. 'What a good suprise it will be.'
"Thank you my friend." Nightcrawler said. "It could have gone much better. Where is Psylocke?" He was directed toward the side where she tended to some others. "This is good, she found her sister."
"Crumble!" From out of the building Gambit appeared. Flying towards the mass Azul was fighting.
"Do not let them join! That is how the Judge forms!" One of the mutants yelled. He tried to get up, but his wound shurt to much. Psylocke did her best to help stabilize the man. "Dammit!"
"A little help here!" Psylocke yelled to Sunstrider. She recieved a shrug. "Come on!"
"Alright, but if I run out of energy later, it your fault." Casting regenrate, he then Teleported away. Joining back with himself. 'So much crap in this World, it is not even funny.'
"You will be judged.." Gambit said. Voice distorted. Soon he reformed as a man. "Azul Lunastrider.. threat level Beta.. eliminate if can not confine."
Returning to his human form, Azul could tell this would be a hard fight.
"Did.. he just call me a Beta, I am actual offended. Like.. whats I guy gotta due to get a little recgonition here." As he talked, Azul had his hand outstretched. Gathering all the psychic impressions in the area to fire. "I mean, I am not the strongest but to recieve the level of Beta.."
"Do you want to be ranked higher?!" Emma appeared nearby. Several others floating towards the ground. "Take it you are going to kill him?"
"Yup, from one cajun to another, it sucks. But.. he is gone." Azul lamented. His Observe already giving the info he needed. "Only a small impression of him left."
Observe: Judge lvl 55
Specialty: Mutant elimination-capture-judgement
"Lv5 Concussive Shot!" The powered up shot fired into Judge. Destroying its surrunding and destroying the rest of the human component inside. 'Freedom is all I can give him.' Seeing the change on the map, he gave orders to the others. "Get them out of here Emma. A large wave is coming from the outer area."
Emma watched as Azul descended. The others she rescued walking leavinfg with here. They could fight a little, but injuries to bad to make a big difference. As they retreated, Azul prepared himself.
"All-buff!" His body coursed with power. His mind going over all the things wrong with this World. 'This bastard his tech from the comics. This is just not fair.' The silver metal was that of Nimrod. An advanced Sentinel from the future in several comics. If he was in the game, he id not remember seeing him. "Humph!"
"Pew!" Two hand lasers fired at Azul. They were dodged with a teleport.
"Shoryuken!" He appeared behind Judge. At his feet, and moved up in a turning uppercut. Hands ablaze with Flame Fist.The heat was strong enough to destabilize the metal some. 'Damn that is some strong shit.'
"Vrr!" Judge opened his mouth a fired a mouth beam. Azul let the armor take the blow. He was carried off in the distance but teleported back. Coming from above in a strike.
Health -3
The energy from the beam seeped through the armor. It was very potent.
"Bang!" Azul's fist struck hard. Enough that judge feet crushed the ground. But the feedback hurt Azul as well.
Health - 13
"Sching!" Azul delivered a Piercing Strike to Judge's shoulder. A section of his armor covered in D.G. cells going inside. Bass already had his hands full leading the Sentinels he controlled in the escort of the others.
"Pew!" Form the center of Judge's chest, a blast fired. Catching Azul point blank. But that was not the biggest problem. Judge's face changed to that of a knowing face. That of Indigo's. Azul felt his Dragon turn anrgy.
Health -21
"Fos.. Ro.. Dah!" The bastard use the shout on him.
System: Constitution Check 55 Neutral
'Damn it!' Azul mentally curse. He could feel his dragon feel threatened but also rage. It wanted out but that was not going to happen. "God damn Dragonborn!" In his hand, the Khorne Halberd appeared.
"Thurm!" It resonated with the World. Pulling blood from the ground. Healing Azul at an accelerated rate.
"Synapse Blow!" Using the Growlanser skill, Azul stroke. The halberd cutting right in the chest of Judge. Blood almost as aid as it invaded. 'The D.G. cells are not advanced enough to take this guy quickly. Better to destroy instead.'
"Please help me.." Judge said. He was imitating Gambit's voice to do so. It would not work considering, Azul knew nothing of the man's psyche was left. "You cannot kill me.."
"Dark Chains of Andromeda!" Azul wrapped Judge up as quickly as possible. The thought of battling it out smartly, gone after the reveal of the Unrelenting Force. "Shred!"
"Sching!" Biotic Energy ripped Judge to pieces as Azul held on. Judge started firing full blast at him. Azul's using a part of his mind on Biotic Shield.
A large force of energy pulled in from the surrundings as far as he could reach to deal with the incoming reinforments and factory in one go.
"Pew!" Another blast against his shield.
"Od...ah..viing!" Another shout that bypassed Azul's biotic shielding and called at his dragon. Wrapping his chains around didn't help since it just moved it's outh around.
"Pew!" Another blast against the shield.
"You want my dragon huh.. alright then." Azul had a feral grin as his hellmet pulled back. His head transforming into that of a Dragon. "Megaflare!"
"Fwwwiisshh!" The quick release of the spell blew Azul away into the factory. His chains releasing Judge as it flew back. The good news, the energy he was gathering didn't break free.
"Bam!" Azul crashed through several pieces of the interior of the factory/jail. Standing up he was already waiting for the Sentinels and Judge to get close.
Health -213
"God damn that hurt." Azul didn't waste time on healing. Especially after the Dragoon ability from Final Fantasy Tactics activated. 'Good news for that.'
"Beta level mutant, stand down. You can not succeed." Judge said. It was was melted but that didn't stop it from floating. above above, the Sentinels took the roof off. Staring down at Azul, hands raised to fire at him.
"Man, eat my.." Azul was cut off as they opened fire. He Teleported high above the area.
"Fwoosh!" Immediately seperating, as one turned into Obelisk gathering energy. An the other striking down with what was already agthered.
"Posideion...." The moisture above gathered at his pull. "..Destoyer!" Azul was not in the right mind to be peacful. So the more destructive came out.
A large swilring mass of black water and energy was sent to the ground.
"Ding!" Something spoke to Azul. The last vestiges of the World. It grabbed hold of his Pather Power and pleaded for help. Azul did so. What it want was complete destruction of Judge and others like him. Azul agreed,
Every Sentinel in range were pulled into the swirl towards the middle. It then smashed into the factory crushing must of it flat. Still wirling in a grinding pattern.
"Haaa." Azul sighed as he fused into the other him. Obelisk having gathered most of the pain and sufferinf of Japan. There was a lot. Its wings spread as the jewel on the forehead shined. Between the hands a swirl of darkness formed. "Satsu..."
"Ahhh!" Screams of psychic impressions manifested in response to Azul's power.
".no Hado..." The World started to quake as Azul stretched his Dark Cosmos out. Those that still had their wits felt it. A few free people started shivering in fear. The psychics shielding as best they could. It disappeared in an instant. The resenment gather towards one place. Following a "Path" back to Azul.
"Bzzzzzz!" The air vibrated and entire him. Psyches ripped apart by Obelisk the Tormentor's Judgement. triggering his near infinite attack.
"Hado.. Ken!" The attack launched from Obelisk and burned through the sky. Descending like a metorite.
"Fwoosh!" Azul had enough sense to get far away. He teleported to the others, then used the last of his energy to mass teleport to the base.
"What the hell was that?!" Psylocke asked first. She stared at Azul who had white hair and pulsing veins. Black energy swirling around him slowly. "Are you a Oni?" Seeing the protrusions and smoke from his mouth he looked like one.
The others staying completely still. Azul stared out drinking a Elixer to restore himself back to full. He was mumbling a spell. Biotic Shielding stretching out slowly. Emma looking in the direction that Azul was looking. That is when they felt it.
"Wooosshhh!" A blast of air hit them.
"Woah!" A few of them exclaimed. They felt the ground start to shake. A purple fog coming towards them. The closer it came, the more the ground shook.
"We are so going to die!" One of the more dramatic kids said.
"Protect, Protectra, Protectja, Shell, Shellra, Shellga, Shellja, Barrier, Wall." Azul said. A Biotic Shielding was infused with the spell and changed to a white glow. He cotinued to chant. "Shield, Reflectaga!"
"Boooooommm!" The impact hit against the barrier. Some of the force redirecting against itself. But it was not over.
"Boooooommm!" The next impact caused a slight push towards Azul.
System: Willpower Check 30 Pass
He reisist as the next hit. It continued for a few minuted till it finally stopped. The completion of a quest caused Azul to finallt relax.
System: Final World Shard acquired. Points calculating...
"Haaa, damn that was smart." Azul sighed as his body returned to normal. His Cerebrus armor completely distengrating. Which cause a slight pain in his chest. 'I need to check on the others as soon as I can.'
"Well at least nothing will be coming for us." Emma said with a lopsided grin. She orgainized the others as best she could. They were defintely shell shocked to say the least. 'Thank you.' She thought to Azul.
"That was pretty wicked." Psylocke said. She was warry of Azul but happy things worke dout. "Huh?" She immediately turned to the side. Her precognitive abilities at work. Side effect of being near Azul.
"Boom!" The prson who was feeding intel to the Sentinels had moved away to report. Both he and his contact exploded.
Azul just blinked and shook his head. The others scrambling to see what was going on. They waited to her from the other teams. The team that went to Mexico were lost. veryone else were on the way back.
Azul spent the time helping the people nearby. The World Shard going to work on convincing them to follow to a better place. The Wolrd would not survive. Which Azul already knew. A little bickering with the others and it was decided they would follow Azul tempoarily.
Mostly done by Bishop. As Azul said nothing. His eyes staring a the sky. They turned to black space and stars moving around inside them. His Cosmos power circling around him. In the far reaches, he saw the destruction of the World in real time. Parts of just disappearing into nothingness.
