"Who the hell is this? I can't sense anything from the weapon he's wielding. Dyad? Weapon Enhancer?" Blade thinks to himself.
"Hmph do I finally sense some concern from you?" Tay speaks. "Tch. As if."
"Well, I'll just enjoy being the one to take you all down. Cause I am Edward of the North" Edward draws his hiltless blade and points it at the Phantom Order.
"What a confident young one," Selene says as she raises her arm.
Chains shoot out of Edward's shadow. Edward reacts and quickly turns around slicing the chains with his blade. "Hmm," he then plunges his sword down into the shadows.
"What," Selene says in shock.
"That little shadow trick won't work on me" Edward exclaims as he smirks.
WOOSH
Grandmaster suddenly above Edward looking to land an axe kick to his head. He blocks it with his blade pushing Grandmaster back. Wasting little time Grandmaster proceeds to hit kicks and punches that are dodged by Edward. They moved inch by inch to the others chained up.
Edward looks back "I might as well."
SLASH SLASH STAB
"What did he do?" Grandmaster thinks to himself.
BREAK
The others break free from the chains.
"What happened?" Kaneda asks checking his wrists.
"His speed is something." Javin points out.
"He's the final member of the group from Falos?" I ask myself.
"What speed" Grandmaster is caught off guard as Edward puts in his offense and hits Grandmaster in the midsection with the dull other side of his sword.
Grandmaster takes the hit and moves back into position. "Not too bad" he compliments.
"That all you got?" "I rather reserve my energy for now not wasting it on you. Resting his blade on his shoulder Edward smiles "Suit yourself then. Well, Now"
WOOSH
Edward quickly goes for Phantom swinging his blade.
BLOCK
The attack was blocked with one finger. "This was your best effort?" Phantom speaks staring directly into Edwards's eyes face to face. "I must say your blade. That can nullify magic is quite impressive for certain situations this is not one of those." Phantom continues to place all his fingers on the blade and attempts to break it. Edward pushes his blade further.
Right before he could move Phantom's hand it phases through him. "What?!" Edward in mid-air changes his blade as he grips it with two hands. He holds the blade by his midsection "All of them in one clean hit" he says to himself.
SHEATH
"Oh no that's enough of your stuff" Blade charges in with a simple katana in hand slashing and clashing swords. Edward then moves back to everyone.
Edward looks back at me as looks at my hand. "Am not too sure what's happening here Twelve Star I just know for a fact they are the bad guys. Also, my friends seem to be put under their spell." "They are good people" He smiles back at me. "I know it pains for me to see them in this state."
"That's it am charging all of them," Javin says as he summons all the right amount of clones to handle each member of the Phantom Order.
"Javin wait!" Percival warns.
"Alright," Stormbringer extends his right hand as a small pocket of wind is summoned.
"And you call me the reckless one" Kaneda states as he puts his left palm out.
"Too late," Stormbringer says as he throws the pocked of air as it creates a vortex.
"ARGH"
Sucking up Javin and the clones sending him to the opposite end of the colosseum where Albeck is.
"Shall I throw another"
"No, you dont!" Axel yells
WIND CREATION MAGIC: WESTERLY WINDS
Axel summons a continuous gust of wind that hurls towards the Phantom Order Members.
"This is going to take forever," Blade says out loud.
CRACK CRACK
"Axel lets combo. " Luna says.
MOON CREATION MAGIC: CRESCENT MOON SLASH
Blade stands in front of the group. "Nice technique from a pretty girl"
MOON CREATION MAGIC: CRESCENT MOON SLASH
"Did he just copy my move?"
"Step back!" Percival yells.
A giant wall of use appears before the Phantom Order.
"Ice Huh."
Percival steps forward "We all must think of a plan." he demands.
SIZZLE
VOOSH
Blade marches forward with a burning blade. "My turn" Blade swings his blade as ice forms.
Percvial stands and blocks it.
"He copied it."
"That ability is similar to Jonathan's." Luna points out. "But instead of copying magic abilities it appears to copy blade techniques.
"You catch one quick. I like you" Blade compliments Luna.
"Stand back Blade" Alice demands.
BLOOD CREATION MAGIC: BLOODY SUNDAY
The entire arena floor gets flooded by blood. The blood then hardens into spikes that pierce through all the mage's hands, holding them into a standing position as one slight movement would be fatal.
Everyone yells in agony.
"You guys made it that easy? Haha, what a joke." Blade laughs.
"This is why I hate going on missions with him" Stormbringer comments. "Let the boy go. He may act like that but he's one of our best" Grandmaster adds. Reaper watches silently. "How about you have some fun Reaper" Stormbringer says in a jolly voice. His mask moves and looks toward him. "Or you can stand and watch that is fine haha"
"Such brutality" Selene comments.
"I can't watch" Tay blocks the sight with her hands.
STEP STEP
"Oh, you two haven't seen anything yet. Am trying hard not to fatally wound them. Am just leaving them enabled to cast for now." Alice looks at the barrier and the Colosseum.
"If not mistaken I know The Federations Luitenant is here from the Health Ward," Tay says.
"Oh yes, I know wherever she is hiding she'll heal their wounds afterward. Besides, once word goes out they will be here too."
"Retrieve the Twelve Stars," Phantom says.
"Yes sir" Selene goes up to the Student Council Box and breaks the barrier.
"Faith!" Luna yells. "ARGH. Faith" Axel says as he struggles.
"Move all you like you won't escape," Tay says.
Alice the Bloody Queen slowly walks to Ezekiel. "Come to me little cub" as she releases his trap.
"Oh no, you dont," Edward says slicing at Alice. "You are troublesome," Alice remarks. "He was able to tilt his blade to free his chains, but he had to chose this time to free himself or the others." Alice thinks.
DANCE OF THE UNDEAD
Deadman appears as dozens of undead appear from multiple magic circles around Edward as they swarm him.
"You have my thanks Deadman" "Continue Alice," he says. "Will do" Alice picks up an already exhausted Ezekiel.
"Dammit" Edward slices and cuts through all the undead but they seem to overtake him.
Deadman proceeds to levitate towards the participant's box. "I'll grab her" Deadman hovers over a passed-out Eriko.
"You get the hell away from her" I scream.
STEP STEP STEP
"Haa"
A person emerges from the Participant box.
"Not letting you" Jericho stands over Eriko as he confronts Deadman. "You taking too long Deadman" Selene appears behind Jericho.
"Wait"
Selene takes Eriko as well.
"Now we have half of the Twelve Stars with us," Phantom says.
"Dammit"
"Oh, Mr.Marina we have not forgotten about you. You are our key to this" Phantom steps closer to me.
"What the hell are you talking about" He grabs me by the cheeks. "Your memories. Memories are very important. Remember. Remember who you once were. Remember what you've done"
"Valerus what the hell is he talking about?" Axel questions.
"Dont listen to him he's messing with you" Luna calls.
Percival looks up with his blade in his hands slowly chilling the ground beneath him.
Phantom begins to speak with me "I know who you are, Max"
ARGH
"That name. Who. Are. You?"
Phantom places his hands on his mask revealing a part of his face just enough to see his eyes.
"That is very cold of you big brother"
My heart dropped as I felt my soul left my body. As I shake my head.
"You can't be. You died" I say. "Died more like swept away transported to this world. I've been so desperately trying to find my way back home.
"Valerus is Phantom's brother?" Jericho says.
"What the hell," Edward says in a confused and angered voice.
"I didnt know he had a brother," Blade says.
"He kept it very personal," Deadman says.
"So what I heard before was true," Alice says.
"Still a mystery," Stormbringer says.
Tay and the rest of the members stay in shock.
Reaper remains silent watching if anyone makes any sudden movements.
"What about you? Living with these people. You dont want to go back home? To our family"
I respond "You dont know anything, brother. Life was hell for what had happened. The blame was put on me -ARGH"
Phantom removes his hands from my face as he stands his two feet looking down at me.
"Perhaps this is too much for now brother we will meet again because you'll bring the rest of them to me" Phantom puts his mask back on. "Come lets leave"
CRACK
"Hmm"
"What is hell is that noise?"Blade asks.
The phantom order looks up at the barrier.
"Oh another one," Alice says.
"Ugh this troublesome guy," Tay says. "I'll just put him to sleep with the rest of them all at one time"
CRASH
The barrier comes down.
A dagger gets shot in front of Tay.
ZOOM
BASH
Jonathan kicks Tay in the face as he simultaneously picks up his dagger.
"Haha," Blade laughs.
ZOOM
Jonathan appears in front of the blade.
"Huh"
BASH
He planned to throw the dagger hit, throw the dagger, and hit, Landing a blow on Selene. He then throws the dagger toward Phantom and it shoots right through him. Jonathan appears in the back of them as the Grandmaster appears right where the dagger lands in the ground.
"Shit" Jonathan gets sent hurling into the wall much like Albeck before him.
"Your ability was unique," Grandmaster says.
Selene covers her nose from the blow she received "I thought he was sent elsewhere?"
Tay grabs at her face "You son of a bitch. You dumb argh. Owen DO IT!"
Owen appears. "Yes, Lady La Flore." The young boy creates a magic circle around him. His body shifted into a beast, with a goat in the middle and a lion's face and a snake's back, it was exhaling the dreadful flame of blazing fire.
"A chimera" Percival says.
