Feast of Veritas (Continued)

Konbei shoved past Nuala and took another swing at Gwene.

Cyrus saw what Konbei was doing and thrusted his lance in the path of Konbei's stab to knock it away from her.

(man, i gotta read these more closely)

Verron jumped off the wall to attack Dalikos using her momentum.

Dalikos used the water that was on the floor and slid on his back towards the Verron, who was still in the air. Dalikos got closer to Verron and held his blade up, while still sliding, in an attempt to cut Verron.

Verron twisted her body to aviod the majority of the attack, recieving only a shallow cut along her theigh. She landed in a crouch, and sprung back toward Dalikos, aiming to catching him as he landed.

Dalikos hit the ground, and got caught by Verron.

(shadow, sent you a PM)

Verron tackled Dalikos. She found herself stratling his chest, holding her dagger to his throat. "there's only one way to end this..." she allowed herself to glance at Cyrus. "i'm sorry."

Dalikos quickly looked around and noticed that they where closed to the watery depths. While she glanced that way, he used all of his strength to try and shove Verron of the edge.

Verron was thrown the air towards the abyss. She scrambled to grab a hold of something as she passed the edge, maganging to hold on with one hand. "CYRUS!" she cried. her hand slipped, and she was gone.

Cyrus had leapt to grab her hand and slid across the ground hoping to grab her hadn, only missing it by mere inches as she fell. "No!" he stared over the side looking down to see if she were okay.

Dalikos just grinned a wicked grin.

(I'd have Deserax fight him, but it doesn't seem right to have Dalikos fighting another of my char's, with others. My own thing though.)

He looked to Cyrus who was close to the edge. Just a little push looked like it would do. He got up and walked over to him.

Cyrus pushed himself up and stood on his feet, he glared at Dalikos with a calm rage in his eyes, his fist has turned almost a pale white.

Before anyone knew it, Cyrus threw out a hand aimed at Dalikos and a huge gust of wind blew to knock Dalikos off his feet and pick him up to pin him against the stone wall.

Dalikos got off of his feet, then got pinned to the wall. Before Cyrus could do anything more, he flicked his hand, sending out a water jet stream to try and push Cyrus back.

Cyrus used his object manipulation and summoned his lance to him, with his spare hand he twirled it around deflecting the water stream, with his wind gust still keeping Dalikos pinned to the wall, he threw the lance at him with all his might, with it speeding into the wind gust, the speed of the lance quickened even more as it aimed at Dalikos' gut.

Dalikos refused to give up and twitched his hand. A shield of water appeared around him, but Dalikos thickened it to stop the spear. While holding the almost gel barrier around him with one hand, he used the other to make some of the water from the 'lake' rise up and try and blast him from behind.

With a swipe of his spare hand, the water ceased it's movement and splashed back into the lake and the path on which they stood. "Pin him to the wall! I can't keep this up for much longer!"

Deserax didn't know what to do. He felt like his world was crashing on him.

Dalikos felt the wind starting to slowly give up and he was able to move just a little bit. He started sliding against the wall, slowly getting away from the wind jet.

"Pull yourself together man!" Cyrus yelled, both in frustration and concentration of his own abilities. "Restrain him somehow!"

Deserax pulled himself up and then made a fire blade. He charged at Dalikos, but he wasn't quite on his A game. Dalikos, not having any memory of him, blasted him with the poison water, and some of it got into Deserax's mouth. Not enough to kill him, but enough to leave him coughing and weak.

"Damn, I'm going to have to do this myself." Cyrus growled.

Dalikos saw an opportunity to send Deserax off the edge were everyone else had fallen. He sent a small wave of water, but it would be enough, considering he had a little bit of poison running through him. Ddeserax went over the edge, but grabbed on to a small branch.

"Twice... In one... hour!" The branch then snapped, sending Deserax falling. He was gone.

"Do you know who that was?" Cyrus said with unnatural calmness in his voice.

Dalikos didn't respond. He had finally scooted across enough to get out of the wind. He looked Cyrus in the eyes, but nothing was there. Just a void.

Dalikos used some of the water that was already on the platform and started to make another gel like thing to try trap Cyrus' legs.

Cyrus did nothing and allowed the cell to trap him. He just gave Dalikos a neutral stare. Waiting for the right moment.

Dalikos held it with one hand, and started to make it grow over his whole body, until it was up to his ankles.
