It was time. Something else set it off, a feeling, a moment of trepidation. The ground extended outwards at all points into a thick, black rectangle of a crater before something crawled out, painfully slowly, a sphere radiating nothingness for a second before-
- It unfurled, long black claws extending outwards first, followed by antennae, legs, a giant hollow heart sigil in the center of its chest. It was like watching something exhale for the first time, watching it create form from emptiness, watching as it towered high, high over everything else, easily engulfing anything in its way.
What can be destroyed will only come back stronger
OOC: BONUS EFFECTS
BONUS EFFECTS APPLICABLE THIS ROUND:
gaia_crown[ Keyblade Master! ] - They keyblade that you choose takes form in some resemblance of your Fear attack, however you want to interpret that. As you grab a hold onto it, a small amount of knowledge pours into you as to how to use the instrument (like a sword). You can only hold onto one at any point of time. - Attacking with a keyblade gives a -3 modifier instead of the usual -6. So for example, instead of attacking/defending/healing 2d6 - 6 you do 2d6 - 3. This goes for ALL TURNS ONWARDS.
gaia_crown[ Max Combo! ] - All players roll 2d12 for melee attacks instead of the usual dice. The modifier is 2d12 - 3 (using keyblades, 2d12 - 4 if you are not for some reason). This includes heals.
OOC: WAVE 4 FINAL WAVE
BOSS BATTLE! WAVE 4! HP: 500/500
- Shadowling defeat results are posted on the FIRST POST! - ALL CHARGES/ FEAR ATTACKS ETC ARE REFRESHED! - ALL PLAYERS GET 10 TURNS THIS ROUND. Attacking/ defending/ healing/ Fear attacks! - Every single time you take a turn, regardless of attack, defend OR heal, as long as you are taking a battle turn, you take 10 damage from the boss's shockwave AoE damage. - THIS IS AN OFFICIAL BOSS ROUND. If you defeat the boss for this round you get 500 hearts (updated to front post as DEFEATED BOSS). If you do NOT defeat the boss for this round you get NOTHING. - The boss has 500 HP. Calculate downwards from its TOTAL HP. So first attacker attacks, and post in OOC that total boss HP is 500/500. If the next attacker does 4 damage, they calculate it as 196/500. All the Kingdom Card effects (the ??? effects) are STILL EFFECTIVE. Once this boss hits 0/0 HP it has been DEFEATED. The Gm can update the front post as needed. You get a moment's reprieve! - You have 48 hours to defeat this boss! - RP posts are UNLLIMITTTEDDD - Make sure you use the form in the OOC above to calculate everything properly!

This was getting just a little ridiculous. Gabby didn't really like the way the conversation felt stagnated and focused, nor did he like the way that boil kept trying to rile him up - mostly because he was succeeding. When Efflo took the jab, Gabby started to follow him, poking him in the back with his keyblade.
"Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey."
Gabby was a very mature individual.
Snickering at his childish acts, he finally moved to take a swing on the new boss that had just popped up, twice as big and twice as nasty looking. When his feet touched the ground once more, his keyblade pointed at Thackery, this time. "Let's make this clear, and never talk about it again. Nobody's kissing anyone, and we're just here to fight. I'd really rather not give away my first kiss to a boil whose name I don't even know, and guess what?" He poked Efflo in the back again, because he was a brat. "I seriously don't know either of you. So despite how fun it is to piss Lite Brite off, let's not and say we did."

Diana up to this point had been watching all the other creeple around her either bickering amongst themselves or having their own discussions. Over all, once the creature was defeated she found herself to be rather bored. After all what she really wanted to do was not something she should do. So instead she took a break, sitting in her semi-ripped clothing, against a nearby wall. Her wings were drooped and the end of her tail twitching ever so slightly as she sat there. She stared at the others with half lidded violet eyes as she played with the coins dangling from her own keyblade.
However, it seemed that the moment of peace was not to last as another even larger shadowling unfurled itself into existence before them all. Her eyes narrowed into slits and she found herself growling. "What now?! Jack damn it... I was just getting a bit of rest in!" She hissed out at it as she slowly brought herself back to her feet. Her high ponytail was half down by this point by all her flying about, and you could tell by the way her wings mantled that this was no happy ghoul. Stretching her shoulders once more she gets herself back into a fighting stance, glaring down her opponent. She then leaps into the air, her wings causing a slight downdraft as she took flight towards the creature and swung the blade at it. Hitting it with all her might she manages a couple of hits before she lands once more, but not without her own hurts.

Just ignore them, just ignore them, and definitely just ignore him.
Efflo repeated the mantra over and over in his head but it didn’t really help when every line was punctuated by the jab of a keyblade into his back. It wasn’t necessarily the smartest move on the ghost’s part, however, considering that the undead pony had lunged at him previously for a lot less.
But Efflo wasn’t going to play the same card twice. No, that would just be ineffective and too easy. e didn’t want to simply retaliate, he wanted to land the finishing blow. So he waited until the winged student landed from his attack then made his move.
Without saying a word, Efflo marched defiantly up to Gabby. Right past that line that designated personal space. And right into the tall boils lips as the colt leaned up to plant one on him. Fatality.
Then, before anyone could react, he was ran over to where Andrew was fighting, sliding to a halt in front of him with his keyblade drawn. He shouted at the fire demon and whoever might be near him(Demi),
"QUICK, attack now!"

Finding a key pointed in his direction, Thackery carefully reached out with his own key to cautiously push it out of the way. Who knew all of the intricacies of how these things worked?
"Maybe be a little more careful with that, keys are extremely impor--wait...what?!" He stopped everything, which included holding the keyblade, to give the boil a look of astonishment. "You've never been kissed before? How terrible! It's okay, though, because you're talking to the founder of the Romance Club! So here, let me help! Once you get the introductions out of the way, you can start with all the good stuff! I'm Thackery, and this is..."
He gestured to the dragon boil, waiting for him to introduce himself. "And this is..." Then gestured to the other, expecting him to do the same. But it turned out that an introduction was not a crucial requirement for kisses from the green-haired boil, because he was already skipping that and all of the courtship to kiss him in the midst of the battle.
He stopped, and stared, and dropped his keyblade again. It was so romantic! Hands clasped over his chest, he sighed, a crooked smile across his face. So much passion that he couldn't even wait until this was over!
"So. Sweet! But seriously, I've gotta know your names so we can name your pair. Aww, I'm so excited for you!"

The meaner do threatened to put him into water, while the black dog said he was a Cerberus. As if that made things better. Andrew just huffed at the dogs, electing to give up trying to talk to them, though he would keep a very close eye on the hound in the future, especially around water.
“I don’t know if Annabel is gone. How would I know? I’ve been here.” Ugh! He should have just stayed in bed today. Or right that wasn’t an option. Andrew through his hands up and then stomped off, gravitating to Maple. She might have annoyed him, but she was better than dogs or crying imps.
And then once again, everything got a million times worst. “Oh Jack.” All bets were off, he looked around for the nearest person to hide behind.
And caught sight of a kiss. Oh fun. Well, if the glowing horse would be a wall, it was not the time to waist and opertunity. Andrew ran behind him and threw a well aimed fireball. That cookie really did give him strength back. “I know what they say about love and war, but can you please save the romance for after we kill this thing?” he asked the horse.

Damien was aghast at the situation that seemed to blossom in the madness of near death and chaos. it was here that people found their significant other, the special few who believed in true love. "Really guys, really?" apparently really, death meant nothing here.
"No, do go on and swap fear saliva while we attack, please." the eyeroll made the hound feel like his brilliant jade eyes were going to roll right out of his sockets and fall into a crack in the ground. While it was tempting to just turn them into ammunition for the blade, best to let sleeping dogs lie where they were and the boil went back to lobbing brimstone spheres at the creature in tandem with the rude boils fire shots under the cover of the glowing colt. "watch where you're aiming that thing , stallion. Do we fight for the right To a night at the opera now?"there was no need to make this any more appealing to the shadow beast with the addiction of another body in the mix.
Danny was in trouble. it took a careful amount of thinking time on the pup's part. "nah, she'll be fine."

The one thing Gabby learned about Thackery, other than his name, was that he was really persistent. Maybe that was because he didn't know when to give up, or maybe it was because he had enough experience to back it up. Gabby couldn't quite tell yet, but he was just glad the boil had given up his name. He felt a little less queasy talking to him about things like kisses and romance, now that he'd introduced himself. Gabby would have given him the same favor, if his lips hadn't been otherwise occupied.
He remembered, later on, that the first thought running through his mind had been not like this. If he thought about it too much, he would convince himself that he was upset his first kiss had been stolen. Everyone was always making such a big deal about things like that, especially in school - but this boil had just ripped this milestone of growing up away from Gabby and thrown it to the ground. Needless to say, he was very angry about how callous it was.
He just stood there for a minute after Efflo had moved on to defend others, and tried to sort his scattered thoughts out. He wanted to beat Efflo up so hard for doing this to him - but as his anger reached its boiling point, he realized that what he was really angry about was that he couldn't even remember it. It had just happened, and he couldn't remember a single thing about it. Did he even like it? Was it awful? This was supposed to be a big ******** deal, but instead it was just some.. forgettable moment.
And it made Gabby throw his head back in a fierce-some roar of anger.
Thackery's introduction had to be ignored. He'd make it up to the boil later, because now, all he could think about in his throbbing rage-filled mind was that he had to fix this. He had to take back what was rightfully his, even if by force.
"Quit it." Gabby growled at Thackery's little cooing, giving him a pointed look before storming off towards Efflo. He waited just a moment while he defended the fiery boil, and then grabbed Efflo's arm, pulling him up hard against him. He didn't slam his face against the boil, like he'd done to him. He waited, glaring daggers at Efflo with an intensity that spelled trouble. It wasn't going to be some quick, dirty revenge. This wasn't to get him back for what he'd done.
This was to get back what Gabby'd lost.
He leaned in, pressing his lips firmly against Efflo's. He noted every single thing about the moment; the way it felt, the softness of his lips, the taste on the tip of his tongue, the ridiculous thrill that ran through him. Each and every discovery was neatly logged in his memory, tagged as a real first kiss before being pushed away. He broke the kiss, his breathe husky as he growled down to his new nemesis.
"My name is Gabriel. And you're an a*****e for taking my first kiss away from me."
Efflo was shoved away, turning instead to the ghoul lost in the sea of shadowlings calling for his help. His hands dug in, trying to pull them off of her, and more importantly, trying not to think about what had just happened.

His mind was reeling at Andrew’s words. Had… everyone seen it? His fear was quickly confirmed in succession, first by the ghoul drowning in heartless and then by the brown-haired boil who really didn’t seem happy about it. The hellhound had good reason to be pissed off; after all, they were in the midst of a rather important battle. Oh Jack, this was turning into to an even bigger nightmare than the undead boil thought possible.
In short, Efflo, you are an idiot.
He’d been intentionally ignoring Thackery and the other boil, really, really not wanting to deal with that mess. But then a hand was on his arm and he was being spun around, coming face to face with the dragon. If looks could kill and if Efflo hadn’t already been dead, well, this metaphor would have worked a lot better. Sensing the trouble the glare promised and returning the favor with an angry scowl of his own, he fought to get away.
“What are you, let me g….” he spluttered out before he abruptly cut off by the other boil’s mouth covering his. It wasn’t just a sloppy revenge tactic of a kiss like his had been; no, this was the real thing. His body slackened in Gabriel’s grasp, he felt like he was melting. His heart was aflutter, he was positively glowing (no really), he had no idea what this meant and he was still pretty sure he hated the guy but damn, he sure knew how to treat a boil. Was he sure this was his first kiss?
Then, after what seemed like both forever and an instant at the same time, it was over. Efflo was left standing speechless, introduced to his adversary then pushed away.
And he just continued to stand there, looking hopeless. He was a mess of feelings. Embarrassed that everyone was watching, stressed out by the battle, angry that his tactics had ultimately backfired, and unsure what the hell to make of what just happened. He didn’t know whether he wanted to scream out in anger and frustration, or cry.
In the end, he did neither. All of a sudden, he felt incredibly tired. His body had taken a hefty beating from the boss and Gabby had successfully defeated his heart. All he really wanted to do was just go home. Go back to his dorm and shut everyone out.
He slumped to the ground, closing his eyes. After all, it had been his first kiss too.

Oh, they were moving...and half an introduction, and...more moving, and...oh.
Thackery needed to sit down. This was all too much. He shakily curled his fingers around his keyblade's handle and dragged it back to the chair he'd been standing on in a few wobbly backward steps, flopped down, and looked at the pair, completely at a loss for words. This was better than any of his books! Far superior to most of the fanfics he'd read or written! The Cerberus had no way to continue on. He had been bested by true love's kiss.
Or witnessing it twice, rather.
Coincidentally, he'd slung his keyblade sideways to prop it up on another chairback, placing it between the shadow and the dog-hating boil from earlier.
