Having no way of evading the spell cast at him, when it was cast at such a close range, Greed took the full brunt of it, releasing his grip on the sword and stumbling back wards, eventually toppling over and falling on his back. "Guh..." I'm begining to seriously hate lightning. Greed began to rise to his feet, but still did so somewhat sluggishly. Smoke rose from his face, as he had sustained a large electrical burn on the right side of his face.

"True enough." Erica answered as she tucked the notebook back into her satchel. "Perhaps you can make more sense of these odd devices then I. Carious as I find them, I can't for the live of me tell what they are for."

 

[DotSlash]

Carmen calmly moved her arm out of the way of Logan's slash before backdashing and letting a green aura envelop her. If Logan stared at her in this state, he'd feel a bit woozy.

[hr]

Rex nodded toward Gumi. [color=000066] "Nice, I think you've got better gear than my boss too. She's a sniper too, though she's less... fun compared to yo-" [/color] Ness would be behind Rex, calmly tugging on his ear. [color=999999] "It's not nice to talk about people behind their backs, Rex. I know how to have 'fun'." [/color]

[color=000066] "I... know... let go, please..." [/color] Rex said, wincing slightly.

Laguna looked at the machines. "I think this is the stuff that brings us back if we get killed or badly hurt."

 

[Random berk]

Aethion allowed himself a quick grin at the success of his counterattack and tossed his sword from left hand to right, before darting forward, thrusting his sword at an acute angle towards Greed's ribcage, aiming to pierce his heart from below while he lay on his back.

Logan didn't let up his attack at all. Lowering his head, he lunged at Carmen in a rugby tackle to drag her to the ground.

 

[DotSlash]

Carmen calmly vaulted over Logan as he lowered his head. As she touched his back, a small magic circle opened up in front of her hands. [color=bb0066] 4th Circle: Greed... [/color] Logan would feel his energy sapped for a few moments before Carmen landed behind him yet again. Her small wounds had closed up, though her clothes were still ripped up.

 

[Chungus]

While not standing quite standing, Greed wasn't flat on his back either. Making use of his position as best as he could, he placed his right hand on the ground behind him and twisted to the left, the sword missing its mark for the most part, laving only a shallow gash on Greed's chest. Greed then caught Aethion's sword arm between his arm and side, while swiftly standing up. Not risking another electrical shock by staying where he was, Greed placed his right elbow behind Aethion's right shoulder blade, then twisted to the left in an attempt to dislocate Aethion's shoulder.
[hr]
Erica brought her right hand to her lower lip, touching it with thumb and index finger. "I see. I wonder how this process goes. I've never heard of anything capable of restoring live to the deceased. Not fully anyway."

 

[Random berk]

Logan staggered a bit as he recovered from his charge, but Carmen would find that his energy was almost boundless, and he turned to face her once more.
"Sprightly, aren't you?" He remarked dryily, straightening up again. "How long can you keep this up?" Like Carmen, his wounds too were sealing up without a trace.

 

[Random berk]

Aethion screamed in agony as his shoulder gave way under Greed's blow. Stagering with his continued turning motion to alleviate further damage, he blasted a fireball at Greed's face, again from extremely close range to try and free himself.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"...I'm not gonna ask about the "not fully" bit. And I don't understand it. I probably wouldn't even if someone explained it to my face."

 

[DotSlash]

[color=bb0066] "And you're a reckless madman. I can keep this up much longer... And obviously, so can you... So let me entertain you..." [/color] Carmen purred as she shifted back to face Logan, spinning her dagger again.

 

[Random berk]

"Not mad. Just... bored. Bored of all this." Logan muttered, before drawing his claws across one another, throwing down a shower of sparks before springing at Carmen again, attacking with a series of jabs and crosses, the claws extending his reach and making each punch a deadly, eviscerating blow.

 

[Chungus]

OoC @Berk: Greed trapped Aethion's sword arm, not the weapon itself.

"it would be very much the same in my case. As my appearance no doubt suggest, I'm not well acquinted with machines." Erica remarked as she cast a glance back to the pods, then went to lean against a wall. "And by not fully, I was refering to the art of necromancy."

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Zombies? Ok, say no more, I think I get it." Laguna walked over to Erica. "You come from the same place as the old elf guy, right? What's it like there?"

 

[Random berk]

OOC: Ah, sorry. Changed it.

 

[DotSlash]

Carmen shifted again, blocking a majority of the attacks and dodging the rest. [color=bb0066] "Why is that, dear? You're obviously not fit for a life of peace, if that's what you're getting to." [/color] She remarked casually before swinging a wind-aided roundhouse kick toward Logan's chest.

 

[Random berk]

"You could say that. I've been fighting and killing for... a very long time." Logan replied, before grunting in pain as Carmen's kick struck him. It would hurt Carmen more however, as though she had kicked a row of iron bars. Logan took a step back, recovered and then slashed at CArmen with both sets of claws.

 

[DotSlash]

Carmen winced a bit as she felt the pain of her hitting his exoskeleton and hopped back, keeping her foot off the ground for the moment. As Logan slashed at her, she bent backward in a matrix fashion, allowing the sets of claws to fly over her torso. [color=bb0066] "Hmmm... so you've been created for the purpose of battle, yet wish to renounce that purpose itself? ....You're an interesting chimera, dear..." [/color]

Shifting herself to the ground, she spun around in a breakdancing fashion, sending a small torrent of crescent slashes at Logan and hoping to push him back a bit.

 

[Chungus]

Hearing the snapping sound of Aethion's shoulder giving way, Greed grinned slightly. This expression changed into one of alarm when when he saw Aethion raising his free hand and fire forming in the palm. When Aethion shot a firebolt at Greed's face, he released Aethion and bended backwards in a not very successful attempt to avoid the blast. While the fireball itself missed by mere centimeters, the heat was still intense enough to seer the skin of Greed's face. Greed screamed in pain as he stumbled backwards, clutching his face.

"We come from the same place? Yes and no. We come from the same world, bit vastly different lands. I live in Skyrim, which is a cold, snowy land with a great number of mountain ranges. Most of the trees found there are pines, and the animals that thrive the most are elk, rabbits, foxes, wolves, bears, and saber cats. Appearantly, it is not all that uncommon to see giant camps, where mammoths are herded, although I never have seen this in person." Erica explained, then paused to think if she was forgetting any key aspects. "Lord Lif Ame hails from Alinor, more commonly known as the Summerset Isles. As the name would suggest, it's a tropical land. I visited it three years ago, although I remember little of it now, I'm sad to say."

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Huh. Both of those places sound interesting. I think mammoths are extinct where I come from."

 

[Random berk]

Aethion groaned in pain as he cradled his injured arm, but his face was determined as he focused on Greed. While the other man still had his face covedered, Aethion steadied himself, raised his good hand and hurled a trio of ice spikes at Greed's face and chest.

"It's been a long time since I killed for any real purpose." Logan answered, breathing heavily as his attacks missed again. "I wasn't created, just... modified. And used. I don't have any interest in being used any more though. Now, I just try and keep away from people." He backed up slightly as he watched Carmen slash at him, then grimaced and drove forward, straight into her attacks, declining to block them in favour of delivering a double uppercut to her diaghram.
