Collaboration: The Gods and their Angels (Closed. We've Begun.)

[Safe in the Dark]

"Well, if I must be the Janitorial staffer, then I guess it can't be helped." Vermilion chuckled before nonchalantly making sweeping motions with his scythe before taking note of the wound. "Oh, you're hurt... Let me take a look at that." He walked over and cracked his knuckles before muttering something in that ancient speech that should not be, the wound suddenly closed and appeared on him as a gash where more of his strange inner 'Blood' slowly poured out."Right as rain, my master~?" He said doing his best to ignore his various contusions and wounds.

 

[Lambi]

"Perhaps if I had any, you'd be able to." With a snap of its fingers, Fallen Ones started flying from the tower and towards Frergnon, each carrying a madness sword infused with the power of chaos, only for special occasions of course.

Just in case, the Mad Angel sent some of his other minions after the giant beast as well. Clown Creepers went ahead excepting a good bashing, Jester Mages prepared their spells, while Harlequins readied their throwing knives and daggers. They weren't sure whether their gas would be effective, but held onto it just in case.

The Mad Angel itself flew up away from its tower to oversee the battle, and would participate if needed.

Gathering up her weapons from the cobblestone street Priscilla couldn't help but chuckle to herself. "Idiot doesn't know what he's getting himself into... ah well. Did my job and that stuffs in there, time for this soldier to report in" she said to herself, satisfied in her days task. Though she was still somewhat irked in that it seemed that no matter what she did she couldn't make a dent in the days intruder.
This fact wiped the contented look off her face and replaced it with one of mild consternation as she walked back to the castle, bleeding a trail of silver behind her as she moved for the gates.

Once inside, the castle foyer again accommodated itself to a much more menial layout to allow her easy access to the inner sanctum of her lord\lady. Sticking to a glowing path her new eye picked out she made it to the chamber quickly, hearing the castle seem to twist back into eldritch shapes behind her. Once again she neared the large door to Asmodeus's chamber and again they opened in front of her.
"I honestly hope you got that sample, because I will not be going back for a second one so soon" she said, marching down to meet before her, just now though she was noticing the disparity of the throne room, and remembered the message Asmodeus sent earlier.
"Wait... I know you said people were assaulting the castle earlier, but I didn't know they made it this far, are they still nearby? I can get right after them" she said, once again taking out her gun, ready for a new assignment.

Even as Crest returned from one excursion, The Endless had sent others on another. Justicar and a hulking beast of an Aberration called "Behemoth" wound their way to a vast expanse of black space dotted by planets. In tow were a few dozen Beasts, Monsters and Chimeras; nothing too fancy, after all, the idea for this expedition was the same as the other: find enemy, estimate strength, retreat. And this was the Creator and Champion who The Endless had just recently wrested a new territory from, so he was eager to know just how and why his opponents would give up such a prize.

Justicar and his entourage arrived on a small planet with hardly enough time to look around before Behemoth began stampeding about, smashing anything and everything it could. It was an enormous beast, ten times the height of a tree, maybe taller; Justicar wasn't sure what a tree was. They were his master's words after all. It's head was like that of a rotting, twisted, bloated elephant's, the rest of it's body a massive amalgam of rippling muscles stronger than any metal. It stamped about, crushing anything smaller than it, ripping apart anything else.

Justicar left behind a token force to "protect" the Behemoth, as he and the rest floated off to grab the attention of something far away from the angry giant.

Putting her hands to her now healed abdomen Sehnsucht gave a half-thankful, half-cynical look.
"Cute trick. Thank you. But I'll ask you not to take on all of the abuse that Schadenfreude puts this body through, I obviously can't die by it, but I doubt you'd appreciate having similar scars to mine."
I think they're beautiful personally~~~~ Heeee Heeee~~~
"Besides, you're my champion and my champion will be treated well, how will you fight for me if you're oozing all over? Especially if whatever that was returns to destroy what is left here." She retorted teasing, ignoring Schadenfreude and her hateful comments. She had already started rebuilding the crushed buildings around her whilst speaking.

 

[BoosterGold]

The Metal Man thought on the words of his creepy puppet foe and thought up a plan a glorious plan. "Alright you Puppet fool, you has 10 seconds to comply, return the Poison God's essence to me this instant!" he said as he turn his arms into dual wielded flame throwers and set forth jet streams of flame into the air as a warning

 

[Safe in the Dark]

"You're implying this body can scar." Vermilion half-grinned before reeling into a wall and leaning into it. "And as long as my Master is healthy, then I consider it that I'm doing well for myself." He retorted as the wounds slowly got smaller. "Besides, it'll take a lot more than that to take something you create down I'm willing to bet." He gave a subtle compliment before regaining his composure, the wounds slowly sealing and the vibrant yellow returning to his eyes.

 

[Evrant-Knight]

Before The Voyager could respond, Alastor detected something on the scanner.

"Voyager, I'm picking up an incoming Saucer energy signature south-west of our current position. From what I can gather, it looks to be on a relay course back to here. Suggest course of action."

 

[VaudevillianVeteran]

"Hmm, dare I say you being kind to me, sir?" Sehnsucht smirked, bringing another building down with a loud tremor and thud, adjusting a black lattice roof and closing the window pannels.
This place gives me such peace of mind...
I liked it better in ruins~~~
"Where does a champion wander after he's done with his work for the night? I was wondering this." Sehnsucht started to ask, absentmindedly.

 

[LevROLL]

The Behemoth, small-minded and of supremely short-temper, took immediate offense at the bombardment. Shaking off any damage from it's massive, dense bulk, it lunged outward from the planet, eying a small, grey dish floating in the dark.

 

[Safe in the Dark]

"I can have my moments, can't I?" vermilion grinned as he yawned slightly."Typically I just go out an wreak havoc on some poor unsuspecting bastard,or stand over you while you sleep." He joked with a laugh. "I've never given that much thought..."

 

[Fury Is Me.]

Asmodeus removed her attention from the elderly man making idle threats with fire to turn her eye towards her successful Champion Asmodeus lifted her head up a bit and gave an approving nod. She held the sample out in front of Priscilla in one hand. "Very good, Priscilla. Yes yes, Very good. You've done well!" Asmodeus cast an eye towards the eight ink bleeding stumps of arms she had on the floor, skin growing over the wound rapidly. "Ah, those intruders. No, they are not still here, and I don't think now would be a time to retrieve my hands which they're probably using as trophies right now. Yes, trophies. Haha... Yes... No. There is a time for revenge, yes, revenge but today is not that day." Asmodeus retracted the hand holding the poison sample and raised it to the ceiling, where it disappeared amongst the seemingly endless number of others. "As for our loud little house guest, I'll take care of it~ Yes, I'll take care of it~" Asmodeus chuckled. "Send in the Centipedes~"

Near the Metal man, hundreds of tiny, but loud clicking sounds were being made around a corner, quickly getting louder and louder. Whatever was making the noise was getting closer and closer and closer, each click made sure that the distance was always an exact calculation. And then they came around the corners. Tens of them. Unbelievably long dolls that looked like Centipedes. Each little segment was made up of the torso and arms/legs of a doll ending at a singular head that contained two golden eyes and was missing a mouth, just a hole where the jaw should be. They quickly surrounded the Metal Man and two of them wrapped the lengths of their bodies around him, arms grabbing every part of him. They began dragging him out.

Asmodeus looked back at Priscilla. "You'll want to see this~"

Meanwhile, at the Mad God's tower, Frergnon quickly leapt up, hundreds of feet forward and about 300 upward, and grabbed the side of the Mad God's tower, where he immediately crushed the wall and landed inside a large room that held only a few of the Mad God's minions. He quickly cut them down, them being so few in number. "INFERIOR BEINGS. YOU WILL RETURN ME TO MY PLANE AT ONCE OR I WILL SKIN YOU ALL LIKE WILD BEASTS."

 

[BoosterGold]

A look of pure terror and panic took over his face, he possessed an extreme fear of insects. "Gosh Darn Centipedes why did it have to be centipedes!" he shouted as he was dragged out to terrified to concentrate on forming anything as he was dragged out of the castle and straight out of the domain, past the disturbed puppet town. He struggled against the horrible things but it was no use.
He was once more in front of the Goatsee of the Universe and he knew what they were planning. In his panicked state he managed to form a simple blade and dislodge himself from the grip of the Cemtipedes.

 

[Fury Is Me.]

The Centipedes were thrown off of the Metal Man as he cut them away with his sword. They plunged directly into the massive rift in the universe.

Back at base, Asmodeus shivered with disgust as she quickly shut off the eyes on the centipedes. "I didn't need to see that."

 

[BoosterGold]

The Metal Man looked on as the Centipedes careened into the Goatsee and disappeared into its endless gaping maw. He took a moment to figure out what he was to do next, he failed his mission, one which was his own mistake in the first place. There was no possible way he would ever be taken back by the Poison God now. He knew that he needed to do something, he needed to find a new creator.
"Alright,I really only know three creators, and one is Poison God, the next is The Endless, and Finally that Freaky puppet thing. Well Hexxus is out, and I'm fairly sure that the puppet will never take me, not to mention its freaking horrifying and has a champion. That means I'm off to see the Endless!" he said gesturing to the sky with his index finger.
He formed Motorcycle once more and made the familiar trek to the domain of the Endless.

Upon his arrival he stopped at the recently rebuilt front gate and knocked on the door, "Hello The Endless, its me The Metal Man. I was wondering if we could talk for a bit about me working for you? You know as your Champion and all?" he shouted as he knocked

 

[LevROLL]

The Endless was nearly beside himself with laughter. The Metal Man had come knocking, asking to be his Champion. It was incredulous, ridiculous; "Still," The Endless thought aloud, "I do seem to be conspicuously out a Champion..."

The gate lowered and The Metal Man was beckoned inside. We'll see what he offers before I decide whether to tear him apart.

 

[BoosterGold]

The Metal Man made his way inside the castle once more, and this time his didn't break anything. He followed the path to the throne room he remembered from his last visit and made his way to the presence of the Endless.
"Greetings The Endless, a pleasure to see you again, before we begin I would like to apologize for the exploding sword thing, I really didn't know about that." he said while down on his knee

 

[LevROLL]

Maybe this one has some promise after all, mused The Endless. "Hm," was what came as a reply. "I believe you. However, there is still the matter at hand." The Endless shifted upon his throne. "You say you wish to become my Champion. As I see it, though, you have a Creator. Why would you turn to me?" The Endless began to stroke his beard thoughtfully, awaiting a response.

 

[BoosterGold]

"To put it simply, I think working with you would be far more beneficial to not only myself, but to you as well. Poison God is powerful yes, but he is a creature most foul, in temperament and odor. Besides think of what you could do with me in your employ." he said to the Endless
