Welcome to Gaia! ::

*Kyla drops down on all fours to dodge the giant fire ball. It misses, but singes her back a bit. She stands slowly, the pain from using Umbral's power still affecting her. She wastes no time and shifts to her gold lioness form. She races straight towards him, with her arms and upper body tilted forward, as though going in for a straightforward slash. However, she hopes that Kokujo's moves will open a window for her. At the last moment before reaching Brimmstone, Kyla drops Hien on the ground, and then grabs it with her feet as she performs a handstand. With this unexpected move, Hien is now gripped with Kyla's feet, the hilt aimed squarely at Brimmstone's forehead.

WHAM!

Kyla brings the Hilt of Hien down on Brimmstone's forehead with as much power as she can*

*Brimmstone is too distracted to deal with the rain of ice kunai, but the kunai melt after contact so the damage is minimized. Though there were a lot of hits, so every little bit helps*

*He takes the full force of Kyla's attack, and he skids back a bit....though his forehead is bleeding, he doesn't show any sign of pain. He still has his sense of pride and toughness it seems. Raiden's summoning effect seems to work, or maybe Kyla's sense-knocking worked...it's unclear. Either way, Brimmstone is able to say what he wants to say.* "Your feints are irritating as ever. My turn." *Despite being controlled, Brimmstone seems glad to be fighting Kyla again. He ducks down and avoids Kokujo's drags his fist along the ground to ignite his gauntlet and then does a rising fire punch to Kyla's mid section. If it connects, the punch will be plenty strong enough to break some bones. Even if it doesn't, Brimmstone is shrouded in intense flames and should cause some burns. This Shoryuken is part of a complete breakfast. Meanwhile, Raiden is still holding onto Brimmstone's arm, so he's along for the ride during this epic fire uppercut.*

*Brimmstone rises and shines brightly during this time, and the flash of it disrupts the shadows.*

"Damn....." Kokujo muttered as his attacks missed, though he had prepared for a miss and and there was a clank as he caught his shuriken neatly with his mechanical arm as it reached the end of it's arc from his missed swipe. He was half blinded by a moment by the sudden burst of 'fire power' from Brimmstone, not being much for bright things himself, but still, even though Brimmstone had got a nasty hit in on Kyla, the move would leave him open to attack from Kokujo.....it did look like the move had a long recovery time.

He had noted Raidens attempts to open Brimmstones soul, and decided if there was any time to try and free his suppressed conciousness it was now. He spun around behind Brimmstone, bringing the hard metal elbow of his mechanical arms around to try and strike Brimmstone on the side of his head. The burning heat from just being next to Brimmstone when he was using his techniques was almost unbearable, but his false arm was made of tough stuff and could take the heat without damage for time enough to land a blow, even though part of his sleeve burnt away as it came close to the fire.

"Is this really what you wanted to accomplish?! A toy for a Necromancer?! Is the great 'Suzaku' really that weak?" Kokujo shouted as he attacked, knowing Brimmstone was quite prideful, maybe it would get through to him.

"Damn, Kyla sure took that one, I think he was using an EX, that stuff has some serious priority" Corbenik added, cowering valiantly behind Kokujos shoulder.

*Kold melts his ice barrier and finally is ready. He's holding a concentrated ball of swirling water and ice in his hands.*

"Glacial Corridor!" *he transports himself behind Brimmstone. He places the water / ice mass onto his sword, and performs a ranged slash. It creates a crescent wave of freezing pressurized water.*

*the majority of the moisture remains on the sword, and it can be used for several more attacks*

*Kold is somewhat surprised in the rapid change of emotion, and continues launching attacks*

"Glacial Cannonade! And...Hyouretsuzan!" (Ice Burst Slash) *Kold fires a volley of Glacial Cannons, and then slashes ice waves which burst upon impact.*

eek Kooooooooold! EXPLAIN NOW!!!

*Kyla sneaks behind Raiden's golem in an attempt to recover a little*

For the first time Zehuti actually seems to become a little uncertain at this sudden development ".....Tarvos, hm, this event was not part of my projected calculations. It's interfering with my control" He mumbled to himself, backing away from the battle slightly, probably the smartest thing to do under current circumstances.

"Woooaah ok, Brimmstone's officially lost it. I thought he lost it before a few times, but now he's lost it so much that it's not even in the last place you look. Hey, emo-face, with the body of an emo and the face of someone who never smiles, do something! Something that preferably has my safety as the main priority" Corbenik said, pointing at Brimmstone then seeking refuge in Kokujo's collar.

"Tarvos?" Kokujo had a rare moment of surprise "Hmf, was Yokoshima planning this all along....in any case, for once Corbenik was right, he seems to have gone berserk.....but Kold.....why is he so angry at him...." He mused, though figured he didn't have time to think about the answers much. Kold seemed like he was about to get smushed.
