Welcome to Gaia! ::

" I think you are getting the wrong idea, all of these 'faces' as I call them are mine I haven't possessed or taken them from people I move untouched by the passage of time when I have outgrown an identity and find myself in need of a new one I create one of these masks which create the face that i chose, they capture the essence of who I was and trap it in a mask that way when I need to call on my former strength I simply wear the mask and gain my old abilities, however this power only works with me if say you were to wear the mask it would just be a mask, nothing more. I am sure someone like yourself has seen much more then this in his life time. " The Guildmaster said as he gripped his sword with two hands. He pulled apart which caused his sword to split into two blades. He held them in an attack stance and dashed at him being careful not to step on his mask. He slashed at Nephilis with a series of 12 cuts his swords were lighter then if they were conjoined but now he was a bit faster and still had his strength to work with.

Keliah looked as Kendal escaped. She stared at her brother. Her hair blew in the wind, her yellow eyes like slits stared at her brother. "So I suppose you've come here to save the day, when your pathetic a** girlfriend is being possesed by an aunt of ours..." she told him. "You do not learn from history do you Kessaris? Dulceri...immense power, tried to be a god....defeat...Marcove, the same situation and even lost the mother of his children, destroyed..I mean he couldnt even destroy a fifteen year old girl, and now Kessaris Shale. You were dumb for reviving ricky that was 6 months off of your life..." she said looking at him. "I'll kill you...and I dont mean Kirasek...I mean Kessaris...Serenity is totally insync with me right now, so it's no more split power/personality s**t anymore" she told him with a toothy grin.

Amara lept trying to avoid, but was getting stunned every so often,until magma enveloped her forming a sort of cocoon, emitting imense heat.

Samara edged down the wall, sliding into a sitting position. She tore a strip off the bottom of her dress, tying it around her shoulder to try and get some pressure on it. She needed to conserve her energies if Nephilis needed her.

The Guildmaster knew that if he dodged then Nephilis would probably dodge his next attack. He knew what he had to do at this time. He felt Nephilis's kick make contact with his head and that was his moment because he was on one foot a leap would be difficult and simply walking away was next to impossible. He thrusted his twin swords forward each one aimed for Nephilis's stomach.

"Twelve adding what I did for Riko not too long ago. And I'd rather have twelvemonths off my life than no life at all." Kessaris said with animosity, his eyes giving an acidic gaze. He begins to walk closer to her calmly with is aura rising with each step. "Marcove, although he is what he is, he's no match for us. Ah and you're going to kill me eh? You don't know how tired I am." he stops walking, now less than a meter away from her. "I'm tired of trying to save you, of trying to fix you...trying to tear Serenity from you. I'm tired of trying, so now, like you've decided, I'm just going to kill two birds with one stone."



Marcove created a gravity well that lead to Kendal and once he stepped out, he fell backwards onto his butt. "Something is wrong." He said to his friend. "Something is very wrong. The aura, not just Keliah's...it's been changed and it's purpose is all wrong. I think it's Kessaris, Kendal."



Nephilis grits his teeth together, using each necessary muscle to move his sword, still pointing toward the ground, in horiznatal arc as if making an invisble sheet. His blade met the Guildmaster's blades and he found them to be lighter. He finally parries an attack and uses the momentum to spin and throw a whipping left kick, his heel aimed for his cheek.

The Guildmaster smiled he had waited for a moment like this. He shifted his swords so the blade was facing Nephilis's kick. " If he wanted to finish the kick fine he would slash his achilles tendent and make sure he never walked with that leg again. The Guildmaster kept his swords up and he used his left leg to throw a powerful side kick aimed at Nephilis's stomach. " This is the most fun I;ve had in years your skills far surpass Kendals own unrefined strength. " He said in a deep voice.

Samara reached up with her unscathed arm, pulling Ricky gently to her so he could sit beside her. She placed an arm around him, holding him reassuringly. "It'll be alright," she said. "Nephilis is strong and very intelligent. He'll get us through this." She smiled reassuringly. "Don't worry about a thing." The truth was, though, that she was scared. She had a very forebodeing feeling about all this.
