Zone E -- Highlands

[Todd Ingram]

And so it was decided. Through battle a not so typical alliance was created. Tony and Batman were on the move, hoping that the next item drop would be less of a battlefield. The first part of their journey was in silence, whether it was Batman's personality or the bitter taste of the last battle that still lingered, was unknown. Tony decided to break the silence, "So what do I call you?"

"I am known as Batman." The deep rough voice said

"Batman? Really? That's the best you could come up with?"

"It's complicated. Take it as a metaphor."

"Still… Batman? Well it's your show."

The vigilante continued to walk, not responding to Tony's disapproval of his name. He quickly changed the subject, " What can I call you?"
"Call me Tony, Tony Redgrave."

Batman came to a stop and turned to address his ally head on, "Alright Tony, I got a favor to ask you. You see this wound in my shoulder? It hasn't stopped bleeding since we started walking. The bleeding needs to stop, I need your help cauterize the wound."

"Are we at that point of our relationship already? Fine, I will help."


Without taking off his cowl the masked vigilante removed pieces of his armor, revealing a grave wound in his shoulder, blood still slowly flowing out from it. Tony stood next to him, observing the wound and the actions that followed.

From his knapsack Batman took the flint and tinder, who would've thought that this actually could be of use? Bruce started to make use of the primitive tools. His shoulder was killing him. Sparks appeared from the flint, failing to light the dry grass they scavenged from the nearby area. Frustration started to kick in, the pain from his wound started to affect his performance with even the simplest of tasks. How well would he do when another enemy appeared. He had to get this done quick. The second third and fourth attempt to create fire failed as miserably as the first. Bruce got ready to try again.

*BANG*

A loud shot was heard from a mere foot away, followed by agonizing pain on his shoulder. Batman groaned loudly, turning his head and saw the barrel of tony's shotgun being pressed against the wound, burning it shut.

"You're welcome." The gunslinger said satisfied.

He wasn't happy with it but Batman was grateful, the bleeding had stopped. "Thanks, but you could've warned me."


"Yeah, I could've. But anticipation would've only made it worse."

The dark knight assembled his armor once more, now that he was ready, the duo continued on their journey. On their way to yet another item-drop.

Batman and Dante move from E1 to B12

[Jak Mar]

Jak was thinking, when his phone went off, and the usual contact of “Tony Redgrave” popped on his phone. It was time to get serious and by all means he meant to keep going in this game.

The eco warrior slipped his phone out and started to type to Tony.

“Tony, you alright? I heard of that- “

A message came back saying “Not the time, meet me and a ally up north”

Jak typed back with ferocity “Right, let’s change the odds in this survival game, shall we?”

Every time the eco warrior walked, he kept looking over his shoulder watching for anybody looking around for him or something else.

The angelic side of seemed to be keeping him calm at the time, but it didn’t always cure the crawwwling in Jak’s skin…

Just like that old Linkin park song.

No, just the dark side itch that seemed to plague his head every so often.

Just another game of cat and mouse he had to play on Dante’s Abyss.

He didn’t really care if he lost his self proclaimed “title” DA had given him over time, lost to another man.

He began to run toward a slowly descending landscape, where the mountains would turn to foothills in comparison.

“Wherever you are, Redgrave… I don’t plan to let you down again”

The anti-hero seemed to think, but less thinking mean more time to run. That’s exactly what he did.

“Commercial break brought to you by Dynamite Mar.”

“You need something blew up? Something in your way?”

“Buy Dynamite- Mar 0s, add a BOOOM to your breakfast.”

Loud yelling, WHEN WAS THIS?”

CUT!

Jak sighed and shut off the ridiculous commercial of his DA nickname and kept running toward his common, shared goal.

“Dax, stay safe… I’m sorry.”

Guilty by Association….

E6 to E4

[Karl Jak]

End Day 2 - Morning

Begin Day 2 - Afternoon (12 pm to 6 pm)

This phase began 3 hours ago and will run until 430 PM CDT on June 21st

[Jak Mar]

The eco warrior donned his blaster and his various other guns on his back and held it close like a mother guarding her baby.  The foothills started to become flat and things were a little too quiet for the long eared man’s tastes.

He kept guarded, yet he pulled down his handkerchief and pulled up his goggles to see what could possibly see in the upcoming areas.

He was slowly making ground, and closer to where he wanted to go. He took a breath and kept taking one step at a time and paced himself.

The fresh air made his blondish green hair blow, as he quickly took a breath.

“Ugh, Mar-O’s what kind of breakfast cereal is that?” The eco warrior muttered to himself as DA loved to use his name as a food item.

Cursed DA advertising.

After cursing out Karl for using his real name as an advertising gimmick, he sighed again and kept going.

He still kept watch at every stop he made on the trail to where he wanted to go.

A camera followed him as he made a skip and a jump to various areas.

What was really odd, is that fans were holding bobble heads of Jak, and a chibi Daxter in hand on the outside.

“Come on Mar, you can do something.”

Jak sighed again, there was only so many times he could sign a autograph for his fans before he got swamped again.

A tree was a good place to take a breather and Jak sat down for a second to take a breather.

“Shit.” he mumbled under his breath.

The eco warrior had things to find but he’d do it after he took a deep breath.

He pushed himself up again, and kept rolling. Perhaps things would be looking up soon.

E4 to E2

[Larfleeze]

The tunnel shortcuts were hit-and-miss, it seems. Going in one, and coming out the other end, they found themselves sometimes having bypassed tricky patches of rock and long meandering paths, but just as often they'll find themselves stuck in positions more precarious than before.

Twice, his bad eye had almost meant his death. The first time he tripped he had nearly been sent careening down the side into a sharp patch, only for Abyss to take hold of his waist with a tentacle and drag him back up enough for Chakravartin to get a handhold and haul himself up. He was consistently shocked at the squid's strength. At first, he had written her off as someone meant for long-range only, her water projectiles and size seemed to fit it, but she was both faster and stronger than him, to his surprise.

"Abyss, tell me, how long have you been in the Omniverse?"

"Not too long. One of the very first things I did was sign up for DA." she said, frowning, "I appeared at the fountain, met a rabbit, and went into Coruscant. The first thing to grab my eye was the sign-in station for Dante's Abyss." she huffed, "I didn't even get the chance to see Coruscant. I figured that it would be a couple of hours at most, but now..." she looked down at her own scarred body, letting out a sigh of regret.

"We'll get even." Chakravartin said simply, "Besides, you're a Prime. None of those will last if you don't want it to." Chakravartin grinned, reaching up to his face, where his own injuries had at the very least returned to his regular head-shape. The thin layer of specialized skin cells had been blown away by the girl's super-punch, as well as the specialized eye. The entire upper left quarter of his face appeared to be the same as his hands- made out of shining gold.

Abyss and Chakravartin from E6 to E7

[Strazio Rockwell]

As the prime shuffled forward it seemed that the path before him grew narrower. Each step forward forced him closer to the edge. He had turned and pressed his back against the wall of rock behind him. Occasionally the path would turn so skinny that the toes of his boots hung over. While he did not suffer from vertigo there was a sort of cerebral focus that accompanied one brought face-to-face with their own mortality. It was made manifest in a quickening of the pulse and a soft buzzing between the ears. Below him the ravine began to close as he moved further from the head of the river. As the ravine narrowed the path before him widened, offering a safer path with every step.

With safety so clearly in view Strazio was spurred into action. That was until his hand brushed against something that felt a lot like a ball of dried leaves. He craned his neck to try and see what his hand had discovered, but the angle proved too steep. Curiosity took hold and he pawed at the object. It crunched beneath his hand and crumbled into a flaky mess. It wasn’t until something stung his palm that he realized just what the object was. Hundreds of blue centipede-like insects swarmed the hand that destroyed their nest. Few things frightened the white-haired maniac, but creepy crawlies held a horrifying place in his heart.

Panic gripped Strazio and he yelped in fear. Hundreds of stingers ravaged his hand, tearing into the raw flesh and filling it with a cocktail of venom. A burst of white light erupted from his hand, disintegrating a healthy chunk of the swarm. He shuffled away, firing another blast of magick at the encroaching horde. As he backpedaled his foot caught the edge of the pass and the rock crumbled beneath it. The ever-present pull of gravity took over and dragged the panic-stricken prime to the depths below.

Moving E5 to E8

[Dawnika Snow]

Erika sneered at the request to find something to eat. She could hear the flowing water though, like a small stream that passed throught the forest, there was bound to be some fish there they could cook up, or they could get eaten by a random alligator.

"I'm not really that hung-" She began to say before her stomach had wailed out in agony. She didn't notice that she was actually hungry until she went to say something about her hunger. "Alright fine, let find something to eat then keep on moving."

Just as she finished her sentence, the stream she could hear earlier appeared into view. It wasn't very wide or deep, but still deep enough to house some aquatic life. The blonde assassin turned to her shirtless companion and pointed at the river.

"You find a way to catch some fish, I'll make a fire with some sticks." She said trudging off into some trees to find some loose sticks. They had to hurry in case it began to rain. She looked over at Dust who was standing knee deep in the water with two small fish in his loose hand already, holding them up like a trophy, almost as if he was showing off. He smiled his signature grin at her. She returned her trademarked annoyed glance. It didn't take too long to get a fire going, but when she did, it was just hot enough to cook the fish within about 10 minutes. Once they ate, Erika took lead again heading towards the area marked in section E.

"Our next objective is this way. We should hope that Shinmen survives his trials in the Colosseum. My fight was not an easy one, and we can't afford to lose an ally this early in the game." She said as the trees began to clear and the new area stretched before them.

Moving from B12 to E1 with Dust

[Dust]

Fed finally, with some leftovers to shove in their packs for the trip, Dust kicked the muk into the fire before they left. His ears did not twitch so much as the sensation of them doing so happened when she talked about their next objective. He finished shoving some stray berries into the many pockets of his borrowed bag and then pulls out the tablet. He left it on the map because that was the primary thing he would ever want to see. There were messages aplenty from the OmniTwitter, whatever that was, and several other apps begging to be used. But he didn't really care about such things. While he didn't know what the Twitter was exactly, just glancing at it looked like half-assed messages to feed the ego of the ones posting it onto the endless threads. He only glanced to figure out what it was and quickly decided a social media site wasn't something to play around with while you were on Death Island. He had seen the camera but wasn't sure why he'd take pictures other than to remember the good times they experienced here.

He found nothing about any drops that way. Well, nothing that was unlikely to have already been grabbed. The whole place was littered with dots by now telling him where the items had been, but if this information was available to half the people on the island - which it was available to all the contestants not just half - then everything was most likely already gone. He decided not to question it and pushed the device back into his bag and slinging it over his shoulder again. This time both shoulders. Now that he knew he wouldn't be ripping it off him, he could carry it normally. "I didn't get to see all of it, just the highlight reel. You were great." He commented, adding a bit more emphasis on the end of it as well as a smile. But her words landed a bit harder after he replied to it. Was that why she wasn't willing to kick him out of the pack, yet? He didn't mind being an asset to him and Takezo. That's why they made this pact, right? Because everyone in the party was useful. He wasn't sure what his place was, but he imagined the simple version was: 'Meat Shield.'

"Takezo noticed the squid girl was missing a member of her team, and so we attacked." He stopped, realizing they hadn't really told her what had happened. She was extremely sharp though, she was bound to have already figured it out, but since they had time to talk. "Takezo is extremely skilled in the blade, I would call him a samurai, but I believe that's not the correct term. I realized he had to be proficient in the art, it just didn't occur to me how powerful he was until I fought beside him." He paused to relive the victory, a solid grin swept across his lips and his lids lulled just a bit. "It was exihlerating, honestly. I've been missing an awful lot of life without emotions.." He let that hang in the air, as he tried not to think about what else he'd missed in nearly a decade. He'd forgotten a lot of what it felt like, but not the words to what he was trying to explain. "I'm a little glad I stumbled onto that poster now, I've enjoyed all of this so far." He said, having no delusion about this place. He would either be on top, or left in a broken heep. But he was starting to really enjoy the idea of winning this thing.

They proceeded out of the dense forest and into something lighter. He could see the mountains in the distance and wondered how far they would go.

Dawn leads Dust from E1 to E2

[Dust]

"And then I had her by the throat, ready to run my hand through her skull.." He stopped telling his story about the defeat of the calamri and her companion as they walked through a valley, apparently something else coming to mind. He has been talking for some time, but it was clear to them both that she was the strong silent type. He took in the faces of the rocky plat forms around them, looking at them with some clear suspicion. This looked like a great place to ambush someone, and if this idea has crossed his mind it might have crossed another's. But even on high alert he did not sense anyone out there. At least no one dangerous thing with the intent on jumping and killing them. They proceeded through the the bottle neck and eventually come out on flatter land but with the mountains still in the distance. Nothing much stood out, except the wild life. "There were farms in zone A, and a whole city in zone C.. But I haven't seen anyone that isnt trying to kill me or wearing those Syntech uniforms." He commented, mostly to himself.

But Dawn was close by enough to make a comment. "Don't think too hard about it." She said, then continued forward. She kept checking her Vita Compass, although Dust didnt know what it was at all. "This way." She instructed, then continue on their stroll through the map. "You said you were able to kill one?"

Dust seemed to instantly remember he was in the middle of telling a story. "Right! So then she kicked me off and went running for Takezo. Just like that! As if I were no threat to her. So while she was distracted I skirted around them all and took a good swipe at the cartoon character one." It occured to him at that point that Ink Poison was a thing. He frowned and hoped he'd die in battle before that became an issue. "He tasted awful.." Dust was reminded of the taste, and spat at the ground to get rid of it.

Dust and Dawn move from E2 to E4

[Dawnika Snow]

The blonde assassin's ears perked when she heard about the taste of Dust's enemy. She turned her head around to get a look at him out of the corner of her eye.

"Why the hell would you take a bite out of him? He's an ink monster." She recalled the small black cartoon character from the staging area that had entered in before.

"It seemed like a good idea at the time." The werewolf grinned a little to himself realizing it probably wasn't the greatest idea to just bite into an enemies head. The thought of ink poisoning still lingered in the back of his mind. "Uh, hey, you fought the gold one, didn't you?"

"Yeah, he punches like a girl, but his magic tricks can pack a punch if you let him charge." She explained turning her head forward to watch her advance through the valley. "If anything, he's tough. I powered up, and gave him a punch that should have shattered his skull like a wallnut under a nutcracker's jaw." She growled as she spoke, almost appalled. As though the child had mocked her brute power by taking her punch head first. She jammed her fist into her palm and grinded her skin together. "When we find him again, let's be sure he doesn't escape! I have unfinished work to do, and I'll be damned if I let a stupid child outlast me because Karl Jak ended the fight!"

The two continued to trudge through the steep valley, but soon it stopped and led into a short grassy plane craddled by never ending hills. She stopped and took a few deep breaths before glancing down at her watch, then back to Dust.

"Don't you ever, like, wear a shirt, Pecs?" She asked, having to strain her neck just to look him in the eyes.

Dawn and Dust are moving from E4 into E6.
Update on status
Dawn has 4 points of Accumulated Damage and 3/4 SP
Dust has 4 points of Accumulated Damage and 2/2 SP
Both have minor injuries(Scrapes and Bruises)

[Dust]

Dust had washed up a bit in the river before this, and so he was more comfortable, even in this mildly warm climate while the sun crept over the edges of the rifts in the rocky walls that formed the enviorment in this Zone. He came over a slight incline when he heard Erika ask him about a shirt. This forced a chuckle from his throat. "Does it bother you?" He asked, but looked down at the ground as he moved after her. They must be getting close because she was pressing herself into the rock formations and scouting ahead more. "I don't currently own a shirt, I didn't bother with one because I tend to leave them in shreds when I transform." He explained, then moved into a position to help look for whatever she thought was out there. His voice has noticably gotten more hushed, as if they were on a hunt. "Since I can't fully transform though.. I'll put on the next available shirt we come across if you are uncomfortable." He looked around, twisting his neck.

Something in the wind caught his nose, and he stopped to process it. He'd been so close to her when her chest had been sliced into that he had had no choice but to smell it. His mouth began to water, an eager grin pulled at his lips and showed off his teeth. They looked normal, all except the canines looked a bit more pronounced. "Takezo might be a little upset to find out that we got to dine on Calamari while he was fighting." He teased in a hushed voice, finally understanding where they were going now.

As quietly as the girl and her wolfish friend could, they passed through tunnels and fissures, and all manners of gaps as they stalked their prey. Dust and her used common signals to message each other in silence until they were in place, climbing up high before dropping in on them. His landed very close to Abyss, his form towering her and the dark smirk on his face. She could not see the ink stains anymore around his mouth, but the image of this man tearing out her friend's throat would never leave her mind. "I needed a good snack." Invoking images of him doing the same to her.

On the otherside landed Erika next to Chakravartin. "And where were we when we left off?" She cracked her knuckles, both set. "Oh right, I was about to finish you off!" She taunted, raising her dominate fist and about to finish what she started before Karl put her body count on hold.

Dust and Dawn stalk their way E6 to E7.
Full Assault(Dust/Erika) challenges Golden Alliance(Abyss/Chakravartin)(De Je Vu)

[Strazio Rockwell]

As Strazio skidded down the embankment he threw his limbs out to catch himself. Every now and again he’d catch hold of a rock, but the fragile nature of the slope forced any potential foothold to crumble away. There was little the poor prime could do except brace himself and enjoy the ride. Not that the ride was enjoyable, as you can imagine tumbling down meters worth of hard stone is not good for one’s health. As he fell he was caught by a sapling that decided the best place to grow was out of a steep slope. The impact knocked the wind from his chest, but stopped his descent. At least for a moment, a sharp crack echoed off the canyon walls as the sapling’s branches snapped and gave way.

All in all Strazio’s descent took less than a minute. When he landed, if one could call a backflop onto hard ground landing, he groaned and curled up into a ball. Dark purple splotches began to form across his body. He felt like someone had smacked him around with a sack of tangerine oranges.

“Fuck,” Strazio muttered, “fuck, fuck, fuck, fucking, fuck.”

He tried to stand, but stopped halfway leaving him buckled over on all fours. His hands curled into fists. Fireflies swarmed his forearms and lightning danced across his back. Strazio growled and forced himself to stand. His gaze fell upon the chittering swarm of insects that was now little more than a fist-sized blob high above him. Twin bolts of destruction fired from his arms crashed into the cliffside, obliterating the colony of centipedes. He smiled now that his tantrum was over, or well he started to smile until a rock tumbled down the slope and conked him in the head. One would have been hard pressed to find a more densly packed space of expletives and impotent rage.

moving E8 to D1

[Karl Jak]

End Day 2 -- Afternoon

Start Day 2 -- Evening (6pm to midnight)

This phase will last until June 22nd at 430 PM CDT

[Professor Sunshine]

While Abyss and Chakravartin were walking through the mountains they were continuing to travel throughout the tunnels carved throughout the area, hoping to eventually exit the mountainous area so that they could reach the item drop in Area D2. While sometimes the tunnels would end up leaving to more dangerous situations and rarely even end up just being a dead end, other times the tunnels would end up bringing good luck by leading to places where they could restock on food, and one tunnel even ended up leading them to the top of a mountain, where they were able to get a good view of their surroundings.

Currently, Abyss and Chakravartin were exploring yet another tunnel, but unlike the other tunnels and mines this one was pretty much like a maze, which had a wide variety of dead ends and traps. While most of the traps were mostly harmless, like pitfalls that the two could easily walk out of, there was one cliche boulder trap that closed the Golden Alliance from one of the side tunnels. After a couple of minutes of walking around and searching for the exit, Abyss was getting bored, before saying "Ugh, how much longer is this tunnel going to be!? I thought it would be easy to traverse through this, but it's like Labyrinth Zone all over again!"

Eventually, Abyss could finally see a exit to the tunnel labyrinth, but as she approached it she was starting to hear footsteps from the exit, despite her not seeing anyone by the exit. By the time she and Chakravartin were able to reach the exit and finally reach the outside though, as Abyss turned left she came face to face with Dust, with Erika landing by Chakravartin. While Abyss was glad to see that the demon swordsman was nowhere around, she was still terrified to see the person who managed to kill Bendy around, and after few seconds of stepping back and thinking, Abyss grabbed Chakravartin by his arm and quickly ran back into the tunnel labyrinth.

"Him again!? I mean, the demon swordsman isn't around this time, but that was the guy that killed Bendy! There is no way I am fighting him, not unless I end up in another one of those... Oh crud." While Abyss was running and talking to the god, she ended up running into another dead end, in the form of some sort of open room with the floor being dug out and filled with lava. With Dust and Erika quickly approaching and blocking off their only escape from the lava pit, Abyss had no other choice anymore but to fight, and as she prepared to face the demon who killed Bendy once again, she was wondering on what the woman who was accompanying the demon would be doing, since she was unsure if the demon would work well with the girl like he was with the demon.

Abyss and Chakravartin accept the challenge, with the former accepting reluctantly.

Your time starts ...  ... ... now!  

[Dust]

Whether the teamwork between Dust and the girl would mesh well or not, he was the first to act just the same. Chasing his prey into the belly of the mountain where lava lapped at their heels like waves on the beach. He felt the sweat begin to roll off his back once more while the heat filled the room, but he only growled in anticipation, his mouth curling up in a grin as he kept Abyss in his sights. While Erika put herself in the god child's path, hitting her fist into her palm hard enough to make a loud clap and throw her long blonde hair back. They didn't appear as focused as he and Takezo, but that was because she had her own agenda while he had a loose end to tie up. This did absolutely nothing to prevent the two from looking intimidating in the glow of the molten earth.

Eager to end this quickly, the two jump for their pray, kicking up dirt behind them as they leap!! Landing in front of her instead of on top of her, Dust grabbed Abyss by the shoulders and lifts his head to reveal the nightmarish rows of elongated teeth as he looked her in the shrinking pupils of her eyes; his pupils glowing bright red as his ability activated. The images of Bendy's throat being ripped out by these same teeth flashed through her mind and she screams as she tries to push him off. With saliva glittering in the changing low light, his maw opens before snapping around her remaining tentacle. Her voice shrieks out in pain as Wolf rips it right off her face. Uniquely colored blood streaked across the air in an arc to emphasize the brutality and violent dismembering of her last tentacle before his hand let go of her shoulder to rip it from his still razor sharp teeth and casually toss it into the lava pit behind her. Her blood drooled from his lips as he spoke. "That takes care of that problem." He said while she struggled with the pain and the trauma.

But he wasn't done. After inflicting the physical damage that would leave her without her Inka Wrap and the Cannon she hadn't used yet, and the potential mental damage that came with fighting a contractor, he stepped up to do emotional damage as well. With her still in his grasp be flung her light body into a nearby wall. She was scared, but ready to run, and was about to when his strong hand slapped the heated rock, and the other on the next side of her before she had the chance to backtrack. With her firmly pinned, he seized her by the head before silencing her whimpering with a kiss.

It was shocking, to say the least, but even as she was kissed by the stranger her mind whirled like a top as to what this all meant. Has the man gone utterly mad? He was the only man on the island in just a pair of shorts, carrying no weapon and only the equipment they had tossed him on the way through the teleporting machine, but even this was too much!! She felt him kiss her passionately, staring back into his serious expression. The Egg Boss was confused, flustered, and furious, desperate for a way out she looked at the other two.

The woman was giving him no time to react, Erika's fists flew from the sides of her body. Very quickly she became aware of the handicapped eye and the lack of perfect vision in it and proceeded to exploit that. She eventually landed a rough hit on the same spot she had hit in the previous fight, the sick squishing sound and the hard clap of metal on skull echoed through the cavern. "What's wrong?" She taunted loudly, as she yanked her pudding covered fist away and not even paying attention to the goop that was trailed off the god's cheek as he's thrown into the opposite wall as his companion who was under her companion's mack-attack. "First don't even die like you are supposed to, and now you can't look me in the eye!?"

In the meantime, Dust was mentally counting the seconds. As he reached nine, he slowly pulled away and grinned down at her past the blood that's slowly made its way down his neck and began to dry under the hot air around them. She'd feel his fingers brushing along her cheek and down her neck, his hand slipping behind her gently. This was all so confusing and uncomfortable until his true colors showed as he stabbed his fingers knuckle-deep into her kidneys.

Omnivers Word Counter: 800/800
Dust used Pup's Bite to remove Abyss' remaining tentacle, then Over-Powering Kiss to fuel up(9 seconds), and finally Pup's Claw to shank her.
Erika engages Chakravartin in CQC and discovered his handi-cap.

A Pup’s Bite:
Another basic attack of Dust’s, partially transforming his teeth. They become sharp, but no bigger than his normal teeth. This happens over a matter of seconds, but only lasts for a bite. Hit or miss, he only has a moment to take advantage of the new chompers.
-The cost for this is a simple kiss that lasts 3 seconds at least.

Over-Powering Kiss
Dust cannot complete his payment without some force, using his strength and sometimes his speed to trap his target by tackling and/or pinning them down, to initiate a kiss lasting between 3 and 30 seconds with the person. This leaves him vulnerable for the duration of the kiss to any outside force - including any ability the targeted creature can use while pinned and under someone - but effectively binds the person under his body. The person under him gains full cover from attacks made by anyone else in the area, as Dust purposely makes himself a shield to the target he is kissing.

A Pup’s Claw:
Dust’s basic attack is partially transforming by elongating his nails. The nails become harder and black, growing out to only about an inch longer than normal. This happens over a matter of seconds, and lasts until he uses another ability.
-The cost for this is a simple kiss that lasts 3 seconds at least.

This phase ends at 430 CDT tomorrow, the 23rd of June

[Professor Sunshine]

Cornered by the man who had killed Bendy as well as some other girl, Abyss was naturally frightened at what was currently happening, and while she could still stand up despite the fear in her body almost paralyzing her, she still was too scared to dodge Dust's initial assault as he managed to pin her and rip off her remaining tentacle with a powerful bite before throwing it into the lava. As the Egg Boss was screaming in pain and trying to get him off of her, she was starting to fear for her life, as she thought that the demon was about to finish the job that he and the demon swordsman were trying to do to kill her.

To her surprise though, the demon who was pinning her to the wall was now kissing her while still managing to keep her from moving, which while it did make her highly embarrassed, also made her very angry that the demon who was trying to kill her was now trying to seduce her! She was unsure of why the demon was falling for her now, be that for her strength or her agility, but she needed to escape so that she could try to help Chakravartin with his opponent, since she guessed that Chakravartin would be at a disadvantage with his bad eye.

As Abyss tried to escape, she launched a strong kick at Dust's groin at around the same time Dust managed to stab her deep within her kidneys, causing pain to both of them as they both fell to the floor for a bit. Abyss luckily was the first of the two to get up, and she quickly dashed to Chakravartin to help him while Dust was slowly getting up. "I don't know who you are, or how you managed to try to kill Kong, but I do know how to kick, and now I am gonna kick your butt!"

Quickly after finishing talking, Abyss started to run around Erika very quickly while Chakravartin was starting to charge a Palace Taihou, and as Abyss delivered kick after kick on Erika, she was wondering on what Chakravartin was charging, and if it would be strong enough to deal some real damage to Erika. After around 20 seconds of kicking, Abyss finished off with one final kick to the back of the head on Erika, and as she was flying into the air Chakravartin threw the ball of energy at her, causing a explosion that managed to shake the cave a bit, as a few stalagmites began to fall from the force of the explosion.

"Hah, direct hit! Take that, whatever your name is! As Abyss was beginning to feel happy for helping Erika get hit by whatever Chakravartin was charging, she turned her direction back on Dust, since she doubted that he was going to be down for long. With a very quick dash to him to try to hit him in the waist where she managed to bruise him earlier, he managed to duck down and avoid her as she tried to stop before tripping on a rock into the lava. As she fell into the lava and started burning to death, her last words were "Stupid rock...", before giving one last facepalm as she finished burning to a crisp.

Hi-Speed Kick Combo (300 OM) - Requires Burst Movement, Physical Strength
Abyss dashes around the opponent with large bursts of speed, circling around the opponent as she delivers a series of stronger than usual kicks at the opponent, finishing off with a strong kick going at 100MPH aimed at the opponent's head. As soon as she lands the last kick onto her opponent, Abyss then dashes 10 feet away from the person she attacked. Because this move requires a lot of speed, Abyss will be tired after she finishes the technique.

The explosion left Erika with some whiplash. She had taken the hit before, but not so directly. She slid on her stomach almost into one of the pits of fire that Calamari suffered in. Her cheek kissed the heat dangerously, flirting with the chance at marking her skin with yet another burn scar. She quickly scrambled backwards away from the burning pit of liquid fire and got back on her feet.

"You're gonna pay for that, kid!" She growled angrily at the god-kid. "My fist has already met your face once! If you think I wont blind the other eye, think again."

Chakravartin reeled back at her voice. He knew what she was capable of, but he wasn't going to give up so easily. The Saru God began to charge another of his Palace Taihou's, letting this one charge to minimum effectiveness before he threw it at Erika. She quickly sped away from the golden orb before it cause her any harm. It collided with the wall, making the earth shake and crumb a little more with the simple concussive blast. The assassin was no finished yet; a live mark was an unpaid for mark.

"Time to die, loser!" Erika's screams echoed through the cave and back on her own ears. She charged her opponent full of bravado and zeal with her fist raised to the ceiling. "I want my money!"

"I'm not giving up that easy!" The god yelled back, assuming a fighting stance. As Erika rushed in, he did his best to predict her initial swing and got luck that she was taking him lightly due to his grevious injury. Her fist swung slightly wide of his good eye. He could feel the force of the wind push across his face, it nearly hurt just feeling the breeze. She was open, if at least for a second. The Saru reached in, grabbed her right arm, which she had used to try and inact her judgement on his face for the second time, and used her momentum to throw her into the wall. Her front side smacked into the cave face with a satisfying slap to the one-eyed god. He laughed, feeling good that he had got another good hit in on her; it was at least payment for their fight in the colosseum.

Erika drove her fist into the wall in anger, shaking the cave worse than his Palace Taihou did. Chuncks of rocks rained down upon them. One nearly crushed Chakravartin's foot, but he was luckily just a foot away from it.

"You're going to die on this island prime! Even if you'll respawn at the Fountain of Infinity, I'll make sure your death is agonizing! Agonizing!!!" It was at this point, the tiny blonde had worn a face of true anger. What, you thought she was angry before? Her eyes were as sharp as daggers, refined to the most deadly point possible. After all this stupid shit she had been through, she had yet to claim a single life, and if she didn't start making heads roll, then she wasn't going to get paid. This Saru had the indecency to not only survive her attacks, but make a mockery of her by throwing her into the wall.

Reached for the knife on her boot and took in her dominant hand(the left hand) and charged the poor god once more, this time she was a little more alert. The knife swayed across his face, just barely missing the skin, but he didn't expect her fist to come from his blind side, nor could he even see it coming. His entire body reeled back to her fist, making him extremely woosey. It was at this time that dust was finally back on his feet, ready to help Erika with her fight, if she even needed it. He was coming up behind the Saru to find satisfaction with his claws when Erika's high-pitched voice echoed through the cave again.

"If you so much as touch him, I will make a pelt out of you. This is my kill, my money! Besides, I'm honourable enough to fight one on one." Dust stopped in his tracks after hearing that threat. He wasn't sure if she would actually turn him into a pelt, but he sure as hell wasn't going to test her patience, unless he had to defend himself.

"Now," The beguiling blonde bellowed, "Come on, golden god child. Show me your last resort, or die by my fist!"

Abyss has been killed, obviously.
Erika is mad.
Chakravartin is in deep shit.
Dust...well, let's just say he'd better stay put. If Dust wants to drop from the fight, I'm cool with that. If Dust decided to attack Chakravartin, he may find himself a new enemy...Unless he has to defend himself. That will be the only way Erika would allow him to fight Chakra. But, if Chakravartin upholds to an honourable duel, he will only have Erika to deal with.
