[color=c20000]"Fionn, I do not mean to lecture you,"[/color]

"Then don't". The Magus interrupted the Paladin-Monk, it should be clear to her at this point that he wasn't in the right mood for a discussion about the merits of giving mercy to a group who just annihilated an entire city as an after thought. Fionn set about plucking a few feathers from the Angel's wings. Opening the sack, he dropped them in.

[color=c20000]" .....but you do realize that they've surrendered, right?"[/color]

"More or less." He closed the sack. and grabbed the sandwich. "Who knew they had a Food Court on board?" He looked over to Rugal, "About a few hundred yards that way." He pointed to the hallway he just came from, bodies of Angels scattered across the room, with the corpses frozen in various twisted and agonised expressions.


"Mister Fionn, how's that gauntlet working for you? I'm sure it's protected ya well!"

"Why yes madame! It's been great at blocking their blades, and I discovered that the electric effect works on Angel blood too! Has a great amount of applications I have to say." He took another bite out of the sub, looking over the ensemble.

Rugal leaned towards the hallway he just left and admired his handiwork.
Impressive...Reminds me of Caim...Almost feel sorry for them now... He thought as Slindis and Fionn conversed.
"While I understand why you feel the need to kill everyone of them, end of the day, it's not Tomoya your killing, just the Help." He stated as he eyed up one with a rifle stuck in a rather uncomfortable position.
"....Still, don't think they'd give us the same courtesy if we were surrendering and Micheal did say that they go to Heaven when killed..." He added, showing he wasn't objecting entirely to Fionn's killing spree.

Melethia nodded and gave Fionn a high-five. "See, I told ya that I'd do a good job with it! Ya ever need some more stuff made for ya, ya know just who to find!" As the green-haired elf looked over the gauntlet for any flaws she may not have anticipated, Dillon noted that when it didn't come to him, Melethia was downright cheery and upbeat.

Meanwhile, Slindis gave Rugal and Fionn a disapproving look that clearly showed that killing the Angels that had surrendered cic not sit well with her at all, even if she was holding her tongue on that for the time being.

" and Micheal did say that they go to Heaven when killed..."

"Pity, they could actually learn from their mistakes then." The sheer arrogance of these "guardians" was sickening to him, to just show up after the destruction caused by their own people and still claim to be able to look over the planet...... He sat on the sack, continuing to dine. "So children, what have we been getting up to?"



"See, I told ya that I'd do a good job with it! Ya ever need some more stuff made for ya, ya know just who to find!"

"I'll keep that in mind then! Would you mind me giving recommendations to a few people?" He chuckled as he pulled out a bottle of water. "I know a guy who could use a new pair of greaves......." He looked down at the ground now, the thought still on his mind as it had been. You don't need them anymore though, do you?

Rugal

Smirking at Melethia's eagerness to make weapons, Rugal couldn't help but picture her in her later life, designing countless weapons for his Cartel.
Forcing the thought out of his head, he then added "Fionn, Did you hear any word from our unit's outside? Namely Micheal's Forces, The Hagane wouldn't dare fire on the ship with us inside, but I don't trust him as much..."
It was then he sensed the displeasure radiating off Slindis from this slaughter of the POWs.
"...Still, don't waste your time on them, they're finished and have their own problems. Killing them ain't going to bring Preacher back..."

"...Still, don't waste your time on them, they're finished and have their own problems. Killing them ain't going to bring Preacher back..."

"I'm being lectured about restraint from a War Profiteer....." He rolled his eyes as he finished the sub. "Its more than just revenge mate. I'm going to send these cherubic twats a clear message....." He kicked the sack to point it out to Rugal and Slindis.

Rugal

Inside the sack was possibly hundreds of Angel Feathers, detailing just how many he killed.
If he went with one Feather per Angel, it'd be a lot.
"...Quite the count..." He said for lack of anything truly meaningful to respond with.
He was right, He was the last person to talk about restraint.
"...Guess doesn't matter what I say now...Hm?..."

Melethia laughed. "Well, I'm gonna meet him an' see exactly what it is that he needs before I go an' do anythin' fot him. It's a lot easier that way, an' I can make it just for that guy's strengths an' weaknesses. Kinda like what I did for ya, Mister Fionn!"

Slindis nodded and talked to everyone there in a calmer tone.. [color=c20000]"Fionn, I understand your pain. From what I've seen, it's hard for most any angels to break free of that mentality of anything they do being right even if it's fatally flawed. Personally, it's why I prefer people more. Although we've all been proved to be flawed at one point or another, we can actually see that when it's pointed out. If we're smart, we can overcome those difficulties and show the Angels what it means to be good in spite of our flaws, because we can easily take a look at what could be."[/color]

Rugal

Tch! Always one for speeches... Rugal thought as Slindis went into detail, though the thing that got to him was how every detail could be used against him.
...So either give up what I have or give up what I want....Never a easy choice.. He mused as he recalled her ultimatium, Shut down AIM and his Cartel's last stronghold or leave.
No matter how often he weighed up the choices, still didn't know which he'd choose.
....Would the speeches be a positive or a negative? He asked himself as he added his 2 cents to his PSA.
"I mean, I get why you want to indulge in some recreational massacring, Fionn, but it's a waste of time at this point. The second we can pin point Tomoya's location, that's it, Game set.
...
Though if it'll make you feel better, I'm certain you can "Meet" him afterwards..." He said, appealing to Fionn's drive for revenge.

Dillon had hacked into the network while this discussion was going on; he downloaded a map, and found the best route to where Dark Tomoya and Dark Shaun were. Once he was done he could pick up on Slindis disapproving tone he smirked.
"So then you don?t believe in killing them either? This Fionn has some questionable ethics."
Slindis looked at him.
"Even if it's an enemy surrendering is a plea for mercy, and one should extend mercy to those who beg for it."
"[color=c20000]But when Rugal called a truce you decided to not show him any mercy and attack and nearly kill him.[/color]"
Dillon sighed.
"Actually I wasn?t going to kill Him I just wanted his attention, but I did Ignore his plea for a truce or a plea for mercy, but that?s because I assumed he hadn't changed, The Rugal I knew didn't deserve mercy.

Slindis shook her head. [color=c20000]"It seems there's much you've lost track of in your time, but you need to realize this: Rugal informed the crew of the Rising Dawn of who he was when he took his position. We were not coerced nor forced in any way, shape or form. And despite what you may believe, he's done a fine job coordinating the crew."[/color]

...That....Wasn't exactly how *I* remembered it, but, okay... Rugal though as Slindis defended his character yet again.
While he was rather strict when he first arrived (Though given the lack of co-operation on the crew's part...), for everything that happened, he managed to get the crew to work together, something even Dillon had issues doing.
Still, his re-appearance all of a sudden proved to be awkward, could bring up issues that, in time, he'd confess to.
Sin is best taken in small doses, but Dillon had entire filing cabinets on him and if he was to throw a massive list at her all at once...

"Look, I get that you hate my guts and quite frankly, I ain't too fond of yourself either, but like I said "AFTER Tomoya is beaten"..." He reminded Dillon, hoping to settle him for more then 5 minutes.

"No, I used to hate you, and I do want to get rid of Tomoya, he?s a threat to everyone, and also I want to uphold my end of the promise."
"Promise?"
"Yes, If I help you stop Tomoya You would help me find my family, my wife is being tortured, so if we can move forward I?d appreciate that a lot, every second I take is another second I may not have to save her.
He read his map,
"Now then let?s put the past where it belongs, I Have a map to Tomoya, bypassing his security."
Dillon was off the ground flying he was restless, He Didn?t want to argue with Rugal right now as long as Rugal kept his words he was ok with falling into line. However depending on how quickly this threat could be dealt with Dillon Didn?t know what conditions he had to meet to gain the Rising Dawn's assistance.

"And what will that accomplish exactly? Make ourselves feel better when they wipe out another city in a tantrum again? No, I aim to send them the right message." He stood up, throwing the sack over his shoulder. Slindis could see the man was past second thoughts at this stage, "I don't know about you, but I've had it with these teenage prats wielding power like this and expecting everyone to accept their demands as if they are infallible, thinking they can be able to inflict their will on who they feel like and consider their problems to be oh so more important than anyone else's. "

He shot a glare at Dillon. The Thousand Yard Stare of a war veteran turned bounty hunter mid-homicidal rage was far more potent than any retort he had at that instant. If he had any shred of common sense, he would hold his tongue.

Storm, Shaun & everyone else.
Location: Main Hallway A | Blackhawke | The Destroyed Archangel Armada.
The group managed to find their way into the main hallway which stretched and split into two smaller corridors leading to two key area. One was the main chamber which Tomoya awaited in, and the other was the weapons control center which Dark Shaun awaited in with a couple of elite heavy armored units. When the hallway split the whole group could see a giant window viewed into the core of the ship, which was a giant spinning black sun.

A grunt came from Storm's soldier, and soon enough the eyes of the Author opened up. The whites in his eyes were almost completely red and the bright blue iris had started to glow. The cuts along Shaun's body were glowing blue and his clothes were mostly ripped which gave away the appearance of his semi-athletic body. "Here we are." Shaun said to everyone as he was up and stretching.

As if it was suppose to come out of his author's mouth, Storm began to speak. "Here we are, the end of the trail. We both know what we have to do, stop Tomoya, stop the weapon and the shadow author. One passage leads to Tomoya's main chamber and the other the main controls to the weapons." The spartan said in front of everyone, his armor was scarred, torn and scratched from head to toe. After all of this he will hate the experience of fixing it.

"I'm going to defeat my shadow self, I will need some people to back me out. The others will go with Storm here and defeat Tomoya since if he escapes will mean the doom for us all. Make your decision and get ready." Shaun said bluntly as he leaned against the wall to the main control room. This was very unlike his normal personality, though this is not the most normal situation.

All the torture from both physical and mental trauma has gone to his mind and body, it has transformed him for this time. When this is all over he would need to mend this in time. Though the thought still remained in his head, "(That isn't me!)". Meanwhile Storm just grunted and waited on the other side leading to Tomoya's main chamber, still pissed from being used as a puppet twice and had his precious AI violated by human hands.

The two had many things in common.
They wanted to do good.
They wanted to save both the world and their friends.
And they both were named the same.


Dark Shaun.
Location: Weapons Main Control Room | Blackhawke | The Destroyed Archangel Armada.
The lonesome Dark Shaun was in a big room filled with many machines which were accompanied by many test tubes and science equipment. The room was quite large for it's size but it had a giant window which had the core inside of it. The VERY loyal elite heavy armored angels surrounded the Dark Author making sure nothing or no one could touch him.

This made the Dark Author only sigh. He wanted to save himself but now he has to kill himself to actually save himself. Dark Shaun didn't want his normal self to be destroyed with this world so he would kill him himself and hopefully use the rest of his power to send him back to the (un)RL world, but this would cause problems. "(How did I lose control!?)" The Dark Author cursed his lonesome and angry self as he kept checking the system as he wanted to know if there were any weapons on the ship to fire upon the Earth.




Dark (Demon prince) Tomoya.
Location: Main Chamber | Blackhawke | The Destroyed Archangel Armada.
The Demon Prince or Former Archangel was sitting on his bloody throne smiling.
He watched the cameras closely and noted the in-coming heroes.
He didn't care about anything anymore. The only thing that called within him was ... "Blood." He only wanted to spill blood and create death. Though this state of mind was extremely unstable and his hold on the real Tomoya was becoming lesser within the second.

The shadow or evil part of him did not care, he had absorbed all of his Archangel power and turned it all to evil a long time ago. The hole within Dark Tomoya's chest still felt like it vibrated as though a heart was still there.


Riki & Kud.
Location: Blackhawke | The Destroyed Archangel Armada.
The couple dashed through the ship. The only things they have heard is from their rings that Shaun has been found. The two knew that they were going to face Tomoya soon and they have found a way to help the actual Tomoya. The two had exhausted faces, they had gained a lift from an angel they helped uncorrupt thanks to the stone which will help everyone in this fight and ultimately help their goal.


[color=938F13]Archangel Michael[/color].
Location: The Destroyed Archangel Armada.
As Michael floated through the empty space, he admired the site of war in front of him.
He did hate the death of war, but sometimes he found it beautiful.
Sighing in front of him he knew what he had to do. He was going to call in his brothers after all of this either way, if Tomoya won they would have to cleanse the system, if the heroes won they would need to find out what to do with Tomoya.
Michael wanted Tomoya to be bought to justice, although some of his brothers didn't think the same.

"I'm going to defeat my shadow self, I will need some people to back me out and to destroy anything which will start the weapon. The others will go with Storm here and defeat Tomoya since he can activate the weapon by himself and if he escapes will mean the doom for us all. Make your decision and get ready."

After Shaun finished detailing his 'plan', Fionn cocked Sandy. The Preacher gave Tomoya a final chance for redemption, Fionn only one thing to say to the man. "I have the Angel. I'm looking to finish my collection anyway". He slowly walked ahead of the group, ignoring any reactions from them. "I you want a front row seat to the show, I'd try to keep up. I'll try to put create a good spectacle for you all". His tone wasn't of arrogance, but tranquil rage.

Dillon Weighed his options.
"I'll help you out with Dark Shaun, Your the closest friend I have so I'll stick by your side.
He flared his wings and drew his baldes the motion was so fast no one saw the actual blades beign drawn they seemed to just appear in his hands.
Dillon felt bad for one of the other reeasons DIllon was choosing to side with Shaun, The Dark Shaun had a blade charged with Negative energy, and Dillon intended to take that blade for himself.

Rugal

Once everyone was in position, Riki and Kud sneaking in after Dimitri was kind enough to give them a means to find the group, Rugal began to give the order for the final push.
"Okay...This is the end people...2 targets, Tomoya and Dark Shaun...Tomoya is to the left...Dark Shaun to the right.
2 Groups, I know splitting up mightn't seem like a good idea at this point, but we need to ensure that if we engage one of our targets, the other doesn't get the chance to fire off any other weapons while we are preoccupied. The Black Hole Gun is gone, but this ship is still large enough to do a lot of damage from orbit." He explained as he sized up the group and tried to figure out what set up would work.

Okay, so the final showdown will have 2 battles running along each other with 2 groups each fighting one villain.
Now, this is what I think the groups would look like, but if you have an issue or want to change your characters, please let me know:

Team Tomoya:
Rugal
Slindis
Tajuh
Caim
Dillon
Fionn
Riki/Kud

Team Dark Shaun
Teri
Devon
Angelus
Melethia
Storm/Good Shaun

Before the groups split off into teams, the Cleric dismounted from her wolf and waved a hand hurridly, [color=0E59E4]
Code:
"Wait a minute!"
[/color]

There was a pause, and Teri had already begun to chant a spell, touching the nearest by; and a small wave of lightning like energy washed over the recipient.

As the spell began to recharge, the Cleric explained that if they gave her a few minutes, herself and her master could make sure that the group going after Tomoya would be WELL prepared against lightning and physical damage before they went to run the guantlet. It took a few minutes, but by the time the Cleric was done, everyone going after Tomoya were warded with Protection Against Energy and Shield of Faith before going off to fight the corrupted angel of Lightning.

Code:
Everyone fighting Tomoya is warded with Protection from Energy - Lightning! Protection from energy grants temporary immunity to the type of energy you specify when you cast it (acid, cold, electricity, fire, or sonic). When the spell absorbs 12 points per caster level of energy damage (to a maximum of 120 points at 10th level), it is discharged. At this point, Teri is able to ward the group for 84 points of Lighting damage for 70 minutes!
Protection from Energy
Abjuration
Level: Clr 3, Drd 3, Luck 3, Protection 3, Rgr 2, Sor/Wiz 3
Components: V, S, DF
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Touch
Target: Creature touched
Duration: 10 min./level or until discharged
Saving Throw: Fortitude negates (harmless)
Spell Resistance: Yes (harmless)
Protection from energy grants temporary immunity to the type of energy you specify when you cast it (acid, cold, electricity, fire, or sonic). When the spell absorbs 12 points per caster level of energy damage (to a maximum of 120 points at 10th level), it is discharged.

Note: Protection from energy overlaps (and does not stack with) resist energy. If a character is warded by protection from energy and resist energy, the protection spell absorbs damage until its power is exhausted.

Code:
Everyone fighting Tomoya is warded with Shield of Faith! This spell creates a shimmering, magical field around the touched creature that averts attacks. The spell grants the subject a +2 deflection bonus to AC, with an additional +1 to the bonus for every six levels you have (maximum +5 deflection bonus at 18th level). At this level, Teri's shield guards for +3 AC against being hit, and lasts for 7 minutes!
Shield of Faith
Abjuration
Level: Clr 1
Components: V, S, M
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Touch
Target: Creature touched
Duration: 1 min./level
Saving Throw: Will negates (harmless)
Spell Resistance: Yes (harmless)
This spell creates a shimmering, magical field around the touched creature that averts attacks. The spell grants the subject a +2 deflection bonus to AC, with an additional +1 to the bonus for every six levels you have (maximum +5 deflection bonus at 18th level).

Material Component
A small parchment with a bit of holy text written upon it.


With all the spellcasting done, Teri wobbled against Garm and gave a wave to those going against Tomoya, wishing them luck in battle.

Before the Split

Slindis looked the group over and started chanting a spell. [color=c20000]"May Tira give you all strength, and may you return here safely."[/color] As she touched each person on the head, they felt more fortified, agile, and confident.

Code:
Slindis expends 60 SP to cast Resistance on everyone but herself and Melethia, giving them a +3 resistance bonus to all saving throws for 21 minutes!
SP left: 116/266
Shortly after that, she focused intently and the entire group felt a burst issue forth from the Paladin/Monk, and a shimmering barrier popped up around each person.

Code:
Slindis used up a Turn Undead attempt to produce a Mass Shield of Faith effect on the group, providing a +5 Deflection bonus to getting hit for 21 minutes! Those aided by Teri's Shield of Faith are especially fortified.

Turns Left: [b]11[/b]
After that, Teri pulled Teri and Melethia aside to talk to them before they departed. [color=c20000]"Keep an eye on that Dillon. I realize it may be nothing, but for some reason, I get the feeling that he may be up to something. Also, Teri. Try to keep an eye on Devon. We both know who he is, after all."[/color]

Team Tomoya

After the groups split, Slindis turned to the others there. [color=c20000]"We all know who we're headed up against, and we all know what he can do. That's why I'm going to give a bit more protection here for all of us."[/color] She put her left hand on everyone but Rugal and herself, and they all felt a bit more fortified against electricity.

Code:
Slindis expends 105 SP to cast Resist Electricity on the entire group besides herself and Rugal! Lasting 21 minutes for each person, it allows them to ignore the first 30 points of damage of each lightning or electricity-based attack. Any Excess will be taken off any Protection From Energy spells if applicable before targeting the person.

SP left:11/266
Tajuh turned to her and nodded. "It won't stop the worst, but any protection that we can get here helps greatly." Rugal could see that the man that was his second in command was planning out his method of attack, and he had to admit that the man had aided him greatly throughout this entire event. There was one thing that bothered him, though: where had he learned so much? He had seen what Tajuh had done out on the battlefield, and his machine was the only one that had come out of that maelstrom of a battle completely unscathed.

Team Shaun

Melethia looked at Teri with a bit of confusion as she rode on Lupito. "Um, Miss Teri, who is that Devon? I mean, he can play music good enough, but he doesn't really seem all that important at all. So why did mom want ya to keep an eye on him?"

Meanwhile, Devon stuck close to Angelus. He could have went alongside Dillon, but something about the man just felt off to him. Plus, hearing that the man had planned on attacking the group from Slindis made him understandably wary.

"If you don't mind me asking, Angelus, what's with that Dillon? There's not really that much I know about him, and it would be nice to find out before we get right into the fight."
