Lord Blazer chuckled. "Where do I begin? Ah yes, there is that now-deceased woman of the Valeria bloodline, then we have a blue-haired warrior who I have identified as Ashley Winchester....as a human he carried a bayonet ARM...." Zeikfried spoke next. "I encountered him back in the tower where a tournament was being held. That was back when I entered this world with my original weapon." Legato stood silently at a reasonable distance where he could listen in on the conversation. After a few seconds of listening to Lord Blazer, he disappeared in a cloud of sand, teleporting back to Knives' location.... -Desert- "Master...I have determined the location of our enemies. They are in the savannah, and there is a possibility they are expecting us." Knives stayed silent for 3 seconds before speaking. "It seems that the upcoming battle will test Ashley's skills as a demon. It shall be a 3-on-3 fight. Legato, Vash and I will sit on the sidelines to watch if anything unexpected happens." Ashley frowned sadly, realizing Marina would not live as long as him. -Back at the Savannah- All of this walking after talking to Ashley back at the Portal was starting to wear Tim out. As he dropped on the ground sweating, he suddenly took notice of Lord Blazer, Zeikfried and Decious and gasped.
Knives shook the Darkness' hand. "As soon as we determine the location of our opposition, we strike." "Got it!" Knives turned towards Ashley, frowning. "We shall see if you will survive against one of them..." Ashley nodded sadly. Vash grit his teeth. "What do I do, Rem....?"
So......is Dark Falz located beyond a castle, or is it just me?
"Very well. We shall prepare ourselves for the war." Janus clapped. "Well said, boss!"
"Nox Decious? Wow, if it wasn't for the fact he wasn't on our side, his name would be cool." Knives looked beyond the desert. "We must investigate them, and then attack..."
Janus looked back at the Darkness. "Yeah, he fired strange balls of fire at me. Know something about it?"
-Desert- "BOSS!" Knives looked towards the demonic Janus as he approached. "Boss, we have a problem. Three figures burned down some of the forest, and it looks like they are forming a damn alliance!" Knives gripped his revolver tighter. "What did they look like?" "There was a guy with unusual clothing, a bloke with blue armor, and a freak in a black cloak wearing a mask." Knives was silent for a few seconds before speaking. "It appears that we have enemies trying to oppose us." Vash had a feeling something was going to go down. "This is inexcusable! Some worthless beings burn down a forest and are trying to kill us!" He turned to Legato. "Find the enemy group, and investigate them..." Legato bowed and then walked out of the area. (OOC: Will post soon.)
The demonic allies did so as Janus was hit with one of them, getting knocked back a few steps. He panted, and then ran back the way he came. Lord Blazer and Zeikfried watched as he ran, and Zeikfried spoke up. "It looks like this area might be a war zone soon...." OOC: I will post later.
Hey! It's not my fault we have character plots!
"I know that. That's why you left me an opportunity to attack!" He aimed the 'eye' of the weapon at Lord Blazer and fired a Proton Beam, hitting him, and knocking him back. Spoiler: battle music [video=youtube;Uq3cfXw8p_4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uq3cfXw8p_4[/video] In turn, Zeikfried fired his own Proton Beam at Janus. Janus dodged the beam and slashed at Zeik, which their weapons struck, and their backed off almost immediately. Lord Blazer then fired a fiery beam towards Janus and hit knocking Janus back a few steps. Janus then proceeded to attack....but this attack was his most powerful at the moment.... He raised the Dark Spear and fired several rainbow-like rays towards the three enemies, an upgraded version of Negative Rainbow known as Ultranegative Rainbow. The attack hit Lord Blazer and Zeikfried, dealing somewhat heavy damage to the demons. OOC: Yes, Ultranegative Rainbow exists, and it is used in only one battle in Wild Arms 3, by Janus. Before I used the attack, I discussed it in the past OOC Thread.
"That is correct. I, too, want this world to burn and be ruled. I have longed for the day this universe would tremble before a deadly alliance." He took a glance around the forest and heard footsteps. "Prepare yourselves...." "Is that all you can say? That's dull!" Janus stepped out, the Dark Spear in his right hand. Zeikfried smiled. "So it is you....sacrifice...." "After a few days when the battle in the Nether was over, you still call me a sacrifice? That's ridiculous!"
As Knives grabbed the gun, a light flashed around Ashley's body, and he turned into his human self, still panting. Legato frowned. Something was burning in the distance by the forest. "Master....the forest where we encountered the Darkness is burning...." Knives grit his teeth. Humans causing this? That was unacceptable. "Janus...I have orders for you." "Yes, boss?" "Find the one burning the wooded area, and kill him...." "As you wish." That being said, Janus walked towards the forest, where several figures were at... -Zeikfried and Decious- "Hm?" The heat waves flew through the air as Zeikfried and Nox Decious stood where they were. Slowly but surely, a figure showed up in front of Zeikfried, the heat waves dying out. The figure had no face, and he had very strange wings on his head. "Who goes there?" The figure chuckled. "Lord Blazer...." OOC: The Blaze of Disaster joins Zeikfried and Decious.

He now returns to rule the world, burning those who stand in his way.
Janus glanced back at the Darkness. "Now wait a minute. You still have that gun in your coat, aren't you at least going to give it to Knives?" Knives grew wide-eyed.
-The Desert- As Knives spotted Janus and the Darkness with Vash and Ashley, he frowned. He and Legato then walked towards the group. He turned to Janus. "I never expected you to capture a human. Why did you do so?" "I thought we could have a sort of use for him, like make him suffer or something, y'know?" Knives smiled and looked at Vash. "How have you been, brother? Still trying to refuse the humans are pathetic?" "They are not pathetic, Knives..." "Still the same wimp as ever, always making a fuss about how everyone needs to live. As for the human, Janus, what do you intend to do?" "I'll show you. Hope you like eternal life, because you're going to have it!" Janus shoved Ashley, who landed on the ground on his back. "What are you even trying to do anyway?" "I'm looking for a way back home. I have a wife waiting for me, and I don't want to die." "Hey, if that is the case, then this will help you live long enough to see her." He raised the Dark Spear and pointed it towards Ashley. "This is the first time I have done this, so it will hurt. I deem you worthy....ACCEPT!!!" With that, he stabbed Ashley hard in the chest as he yelled in pain and his body was slowly starting to change. Knives and Legato watched with great interest as Vash looked in horror. The pupils in Ashley's eyes began to disappear, his head was grotesquely changing form, and his hair was disappearing. His clothes disappeared, replaced with black and red armor, his face was covered up in an unusual helmet, and he had a red cape on his back.... The transformation was finished. Ashley panted and realized what this somehow familiar power was. He had transformed into Knight Blazer, and he was now a demon...... OOC: I asked to turn Ashley into a demon, and DT said yes, so here he is.
Hi. Can I please turn Ashley into a demon using the Dark Spear?
"Well, time to get this show on the road. Move it!" He shoved Ashley forward, escorting them, walking out into the desert to get back to Knives' location. Vash then followed, keeping close to Janus.
Janus shrugged. "Sorry, but I don't know anyone who has these keys."
Vash and Ashley shook their heads, making the answer a "no". Janus spoke. "Damn, now you've gotten me curious."
As Vash handed he over his gun, he was wondering what the Darkness was going to ask him and Ashley. Zeikfried stayed silent as Decious stated his point. It was going to be a while before they met anymore enemies, but that was not really a problem.
