[Round 1] Zedd & Vi vs Pennywise & Shantotto
#9
Thus far, the purple-haired combatant had proven herself more resilient than Shantotto had expected. Infirm knees wobbling, the mage used her rod to steady herself; even with her dimensional break, these warriors were proving to be built of true grit. Violet’s face reminded Shantotto of a predator, gaze lingering upon her prey. Closing in for the kill.

“Yes, yes, do your worst and all that,” Shantotto said with a flippant wave of her hand. “Strong words and threats will count for naught when I crush you flatter than flat.”

The bantam-weight mage lashed out, pressurized water erupting from her staff in a torrent of crystalline liquid. It crashed into the bloodthirsty woman like the sea at high tide, sending her sprawling across the stonework. The roaring waters ceased as the mage held her rod before her, channeling another spell as her grimacing lips betrayed the severity of her situation.

Soaked from head to toe, Violet shot a hate-filled glare at the miniature mage as she conjured an attack of her own. Azure and crimson energy intertwined mid-air as they hurtled towards the diminutive magi, threads of energy seeming to cocoon the arena within their coruscating blaze.

CRACK!

Lightning descended from the heavens, crashing down upon Violet! Raw, unbridled mystic energy poured throughout her body, drawn by the waters she had been doused in. As her limbs convulsed under the electrical onslaught, her beam of death seemed to splutter, splashing upon a hastily-created shield projected by Shantotto’s stardust rod.

Unluckily, the shield caved under the intense destructive might of Violet’s energy attack. Shantotto shrieked as her rod was struck by the blast, her carefully-crafted focus shattered as shards of crystal peppered her body. A clawed hand reached out and seized the tarutaru by the shoulder, the sole reason she was not sent flying off the stone tile.

Pennywise grinned with wicked intent, claws gripping her tightly. One beady eye watched the battered woman, the other drifting toward Its supposed opponents. “Now, now… we can't have that! I've lost one delectable morsel and I shan’t be denied again! But first we must stand and face the hounds of hell, or you shall rot inside a corpse's shell!”

Shantotto squirmed against the grip of the clown only to be interrupted by the furiously persistent nature of Zedd. The skinless man slammed the base of his staff into the tiles, standing between the midget mage, her monsterous partner, and the still-smoking Violet. His sinister ‘Z’ staff flared as an arc of electricity shot out from the tip, ensnaring the duo in its agonizingly strong current. “Behold the might of Lord Zedd!”

As the electrical storm rained over her, Shantotto fell to her knees. Her body seemed to just stop wanting to respond.

Get up! The robed woman thought venomously, trying to will her legs the strength to continue the fight. Get up now! I am Belle Shantotto, first of my name, black mage of Windhurst and bearer of the Stardust rod! I shall not be beaten by the likes of an angry girl and an oversized arthropod!

Slowly, deliberately, the mage lifted herself, the broken remains of her weapon acting as nothing more than a crutch. In her hand a sphere of liquid formed, its color as if Hades itself has vomited the substance into being. With a thought it spewed forth and splashed over Zedd, but even now the towering menace seemed little phased by the viscous substance.

The mage savant paused, focusing some of her dwindling reserves of precious mana. The area around Zedd and Violet chilled to the point of freezing, ice manifesting out of thin air before the frosted zone exploded with a thunderous crack.

Violet staggered. Even Zedd’s defenses, while quite impressive, seemed to struggle against the enhanced might of the mage’s conjurations. Unfortunately, Shantotto would not get a chance to enjoy the happy circumstance.

She lacked the strength to resist as she was hoisted up by the scruff of her robes, her neck craning around just in time to see Pennywise wind his arm back. As she felt herself pitched forcefully into the air, her ally and enemies whirling by in a flurry of disordered color, an idea formed in her mind.

Gathering the remainder of her magical power, she yelled at the top of her lungs, “Prepare to be sent on a round trip to hell! Here comes the Shantotto special: chainspell!”

A glow surrounded Shantotto, a soft melody coming from Zedd overpowered the humming of her mystic energies. “Freeze, burst, tornado, Cloak of midnight, freeze! Now find yourself on your knees!”

First freeze, the resounding snap of air flash-freezing, followed by a crash of lighting from above. Winds whipped around Zedd just as a black barrier surrounded Violet and the menacing titan. A second crack as, for a third time, the air became an inhospitable tundra.

Shantotto hit the ground, feeling her arm snap on impact. Flesh tore as she slid along the fighting platform before finally coming to a halt not far from a nearly unfazed Zedd.
