Velora Drawing in a deep breath through her nose, Velora let it out through her mouth, opening her eyes and getting to her feet. For the moment, she couldn't answer Viola. It would be up to Viola whether or not she could trust Velora--even if Velora wanted to give her some message, she couldn't do it mentally. With Krul's power, she could likely listen in with no difficulty. "Krul is your queen, Viola. Better to kneel and submit than defy her and die." She said stoically, and if this was an act, it was a convincing one indeed. Perhaps it simply wasn't, but it was impossible to know what was going through Velora's mind even in a calm situation, much less one such as this. Gripping her sword, she turned towards Aeon. "Time to move.""So that's how it is, huh? Drain the power from a god and now you think you're above the rules?" Aeon's eye narrowed. "I don't need you, you pathetic excuse for a queen. I'll have my revenge on my mother with or without you. But if you don't want my bloodlust turned to you once she's a mangled corpse, you'll tell your little slave to heel. I'm not afraid of either of you." He also wasn't an idiot, however. He knew he would have a hard time just beating Velora, much less Velora and a Krul now jacked on godlike power. "Become my enemy at your own peril." He warned through gritted teeth, and what happened next would be entirely dependent on Krul's word. (( OOC: ))

    ".....I'd rather die then to kneel and submit to her.." As she said this, a dark purple, black energy began to channel down her left arm and to her hand, where a dark energy blade appeared in the form of a dagger. The same happened for the right hand, only this energy was filled of intense holy energy, that would also form into another dagger. From the girl who was completely terrified of Krul, and spent her time moving from place to place to ensure Krul had a harder time finding her through the years, to this newly determined look. Even with all the godlike power Krul just gained, Viola was no longer letting fear keep her from doing the right thing.."I'll save you from her before you make a mistake that will hurt you later!"
Bringing the two daggers together, facing outward in the direction of the Reaper Queen created a impressive reaction of two masses of dark and holy energy to release and speed towards Krul, the Queen so sure of herself that she stood there, expecting nothing but a bee sting for Viola's attack, instead.....
She was pushed back several feet, against one of the pillars she was closest to.Yes, that was hardly what Viola hoped for, but she WAS going against a Reaper with godlike power now, so the fact she was even able to move her even a little, was pretty amazing, especially since Viola wasn't the strongest Reaper in the world. Still she tried her best to cause some kind of harm that might just be enough to stop her from destroying Velora, and she rushed forward, intending to stab the daggers both into where her heart would be! Only the daggers didn't come close, and rather then harming krul, the damage done would come to Viola instead as Krul lashed out her hand in the form of a slash, creating her own dark energy blades to slash across Viola's body several times, before sending her crashing into the farthest wall to the entire side of the room. From there, she turned her attention finally to Aeon, paying no mind to Viola for now, the dark blades that struck her were nothing short of a toxic energy that would for sure keep her down and out of the way. With her trust now in Velora, she didn't think to keep an eye on her, though her sense were still greatly heightened, so if she did try anything at all, she would feel it. "I've always been above the rules, That was one rule I didn't care for, it never bothered me then. It does now. There for, it is gone. Much like you will be if you don't surrender her.." She had no intention on stopping Velora, had she still followed her, it was all part of the test to see where her loyalty rested. "Concider me your newest enemy, then.." Her twisted smile slowly began to return, and what Aeon might not notice, had he not been paying attention to his body, or the one in his arms, he wouldn't notice his hands becoming suddenly for a moment, a bit transparent. The same thing happened to Unisha's body, and even Viola's. This was Krul attempting to erase their existence from the world!
"!!!" The ...figure of a certain Goddess appeared suddenly, but not there in the middle of the room, or even near any of them. No, she appeared above everyone from the ceiling, falling straight down in a harsh, ungraceful plummet to the hard marbled floor of the throne room. Had the situation here not been so dire, she might of had to suffer the embarrassment of her failed arrival. God, Krul REALLY did it with that barrier, if even Cosmos had a hard time getting here, that was a pretty clear way to see more so how powerful Krul got! Lucky for her, she was a Goddess, and not easily damaged, even from such a great height. Just her pride was hurt. "What the hell was that about...how dare you prevent ME from getting in here!! "

Camael "...Idiot!" Velora cursed under her breath. Why was everyone around her so foolish?! Still, Krul wouldn't manage to strike that "idiot" as she had hoped, as Velora's shield sped to protect Viola from what would obviously follow her attempt to harm the godlike being. Jumping forward, Velora grabbed Viola by the back of her collar and pulled her back aggressively, throwing her behind her a little more violently than she probably should in her frustration. "Can you not just trust me?!" She shouted, taking a step back and keeping her eyes on Krul. "First Unisha, now you--can nobody else in this room see two feet in front of their gods damned faces?!" GOD she was annoyed. But whatever plan she had was completely ruined now.
Or so she thought... but she hadn't expected Krul's next action, the attempt to erase multiple people from existence. Possibly including herself now. "I guess I'm lucky Krul is also a fool..." It seemed only Velora had been aware of the eyes on them...A sudden grip on Krul's wrist would pull her attention away, as a familiar demonic man lifted her wrist and peered down at her. "Enough." A human voice overlaid with a pleasantly horrifying demonic one--there was no mistaking who this was. "Your nature is revealed. A queen with no subjects to rule is nothing more than a well-dressed fool. But if you're so happy to discard anyone once they're no longer of use to you, why don't you try to discard us?" This was only the second time ever Camael had taken his Demon Form--a rarity indeed. What stake could the demon within him have possibly had in this battle, to cause their souls to meld once more? He began to tighten his grip on Krul's wrist, coming close to crushing it, while his other hand summoned a crimson blade. Every moment she remained in his grip, she'd feel her godlike powers sapping--becoming slowly nullified by the demonic god powers within this terrifying young man."Tch." Aeon didn't bother trying to hide his disgust. It isn't like he ever held the belief Krul cared about any of them, but this was so blatant. She was busy now, though, so he turned Unisha, kneeling down and lifting her in his arms. "I'm going to protect you..." He muttered. He wasn't sure if he was trying to comfort her or reaffirm his own behavior to himself--this bizarre uncharacteristic behavior for him. But... he had a strong attachment to this particular princess. He just needed to get her out of this realm."Finally." Velora sighed out in response to Camael getting involved. How exactly had she planned this? Perhaps not the best time to explain. As if that didn't improve the situation enough on its own, then came the next surprise appearance from her dear absentee "slave"... "You certainly took your sweet time." She said dryly to Cosmos. "I got here immediately, but you had so much trouble. Aren't you supposed to be a goddess? I should've just siphoned your power from the moment I got here."(( OOC: ))

Viola's eyes went wide, and it was almost as if her bravery was a switch, turning right off, and returning was the horrified look as she realized her terrible mistake. Her body froze at that moment, seeing the energy blades of Krul's own speeding towards her. She was like a little house cat, up against a lion. It was a real miracle she was still alive sometimes.
But then came the real surprise, as Velora's shield blocked the attack that would have caused some serious injuries to the not so bright Viola. As she was trying to figure out what just happened, though, she let out a bit of a embarrassing shriek as she felt the collar of her neck pulled back, only to find herself next struggling to stay on her two feet as she was practically thrown behind the pink haired Reaper. It wasn't long before instant regret settled in, and she realized by the angered words of her dear savior, that she was clearly planning something against Krul. Oh boy. Her big attempt to 'rescue' Velora only ended in her needing to be the one saved in the end, and completely destroying the plan she probably worked hard to come up with. She couldn't feel anymore foolish and useless! "....I'm sorry..." She said quietly.
"What?! " Between Velora's once again betrayal, something she still suspected, but found herself wanting to believe she was being true to her word. Attacking Unisha was pretty much the best way of convincing her she wasn't playing games, but it seemed, in the end.....she was. But now Velora and Aeon there were the least of her concerns as she faced Camael, and in his demon form at that. She never suspected him once, nor did she ever believe he would turn on her. The worry in her crimson eyes was clear as she felt the pain at her wrist as it was being crushed, and with her gained power now starting to be nullified, that pain was becoming even more intense. She wasted no time in talking, rather then that, she would put all the remaining power into bringing up her free hand and striking it through his gut, if he wasn't paying attention enough or fast enough, those sharp nails of hers would end up going straight through his body.. Unisha's body had taken a lot of damage earlier, which no doubt slowed down her ability to heal, until Aeon's intervention and his claim of her healing her wounds, though it didn't help her energy to regain, it seemed, it was better then falling close to death at any rate! Had she been at full energy, she would not be in this position....though, in some ridiculously silly, and badly timed way, having such a caring and gentle treatment by Aeon wasn't such a bad thing.With nothing much she could do at this moment, she let her head rest against his chest, whispering something softly as she did. "You are still you...my prince, Aeon..." She may of been a little delirious still, her feelings of the past surfacing in her weakened state. Her happiest memories of her childhood that involved the Forest Kingdom prince and princess, her two very best friends..
"....Silence, you! " She glared in Velora's direction. "Her new power gave her the ability to lock me out of this realm. It took a lot more then it should have to get here! " Even for a Goddess, it really was crazy just how well Krul was able to keep her out for so long.
But in the end, she arrived...a little later then she wanted, but her attention wasn't so drawn to anyone other then the one laying on the floor, a face she never expected to see again. Rather then asking questions on HOW it was even possible, she rushed right over, rather instantly attempting to heal him, even if he wasn't actually injured, that healing would become raw energy from the Goddess. And due to Hana being so close, literally right next to him on the ground herself, she would get a little of that energy, enough that it would wake her from her unintended slumber.

CamaelVelora let out a slight grimace--Viola couldn't even snap back, she just did the dreaded wounded animal treatment. Ugh. But she'd have time to feel bad about that later, this was unfortunately not the time or place.As Krul plunged her nails into his gut, she'd realize that isn't at all what happened--instead her hand simply slammed into his stomach. The best she'd accomplish was scraping her nails against his torso, feeling as though she was trying to punch through steel. And really, she should be thankful for that, given in his veins flowed torturous hellfire. Better her attack fail than her lose her arm in the attempt to hurt him. "When will you wake up?" The human voice overlaid with the demonic said severely, not fazed at all by her attempt at violence. Still holding her wrist above her head, the crimson eyes bored down into her own. "Failure after failure, yet you still believe yourself capable alone. So willing to get rid of anyone who would have fought for you. How blind are you? You think yourself capable enough to succeed on your own? Then KILL US!" His voice boomed out with alarming authority--so much so that those gathered would feel their hearts skip a beat and their knees weaken. The oppressive power of this demonic entity within Camael was... ungodly. "Ambition without power is folly. We have seen countless would-be tyrants and warlords follow this inane path, and yet we expected better. The ILLUSTRIOUS Reaper Queen, less than a schoolyard bully with a stick! At least they could inspire! And yet you have the GALL to pretend you belong upon a throne? Mastering all? You couldn't master a FLY, you WITLESS COCROACH!" One had to wonder, which would hurt the most after all was said and done, Krul's wrist, her godlike power, or her pride? "Tell us your ambition! Mewl it like the injured kitten you are! What is it you want? What is this POWER for? What lies at the end of this path of blood you'd carve? Have you any purpose, or are you as wretched and pathetic as we can see PLAINLY?!" They shouted and berated through gritted teeth, every spasm of their vocal chords rocking the entire area around them and sending hellish reverberations and tearing the ground around them asunder.Even Aeon was affected by this tremendous authority. It was all he could do to stay on his feet, and he made his way swiftly out of the room and put at least some distance between them and that admittedly somewhat terrifying demon. Aeon didn't feel fearful, but he would be lying if he said he wanted to cross that man. "..." He grunted slightly at Unisha's words, her actions. Why did his heart pick up in response? His cold, dead heart, or so it had been since that day. Yet it stirred in response. ...Being in Unisha's presence was... vexing. Problematic...The only one there aside from maybe Cosmos who wouldn't be shaken by the overwhelming authority and power of the demon would be Velora, who stood there, her eyes glued and watching intently. This was even more interesting than she had anticipated. She zeroed in completely on the scene--on the man's actions, mannerisms, Krul's responses--everything. This amount of power, authority, and unholy rage was enrapturing, in a way. For one of the few who wasn't shaken terribly by this, she found it so very interesting.(( OOC: ))

     As so well shown in every battle she started, Krul was obviously not just some weak human, she was a Reaper with inhuman strength and a body that was mostly superhuman. Her failed attempt to rip through his body didn't quite harm her hand as he might of thought. It simply just didn't do any damage to him, while only angering her at that failed attempt. "Do you think you scare me, demon? " Krul was ridiculous, and that always seemed to come off as her being reckless, and idiotic due to her number of failures. She truly had no fear, she did have a desire to live however, if only to rule over everyone. To destroy those who got in her way, and take what she wanted."I have an army of my own Reapers, those who follow me without question. Where do you gather I believe myself able to do this alone? I never will, because they will always be here." Not now, at least. She made sure of that, in case anything went down hill, as it seemed to be.
She didn't exactly lose ALL that godlike power yet, and due to that she was able to free her wrist from his hold, teleporting away from him instantly, only to reappear ...right behind Viola, grabbing her arm and twisting it painfully behind her back, while her free hand materialized a tainted blade, pressing it up into her neck. It was just enough to draw a tiny bit of blood, but not enough to put her life in complete danger..yet.."And while you were throwing out insults, I got to seeing into your minds...The demon holds a little lust for this one here? The biggest failure of all my Reapers, and you choose her? " He might be able to tell the blade was being slowly pushed a little deeper, as if to warn him clearly, not to make a move. "Or is it the sweet and innocent forest princess, little Athena? I can erase both of them in an instant. But that would be to kind, I want you to suffer as you witness their slow deaths, if that is the only true way you will feel pain!! "

VeloraVelora let out a short sigh through her nose, Krul was becoming more and more predictable by the second. Trying to use Viola as a hostage twice in the same hour? She could at least try to be a little more original. "You think you can just keep doing that?" She lowered her sword, waving it discreetly behind her--the sword vanishing while out of sight. Her eyes narrowed as she spoke. "That is my girlfriend, you understand? She belongs to me Hands off. NOW." Right when Krul would begin her predictable snide retort, she'd feel a sudden surge of pain as that sword rematerialized beside her and stabbed straight through the arm that held her blade, pinning the arm against her side as the sword stabbed through both arm and torso. Likely she'd drop the blade from the pain, but even if she didn't, the arm wouldn't be able to move to continue to threaten Viola. Stepping in aggressively as the sword's stab pushed her away from Viola, Velora leaped up, delivering a harsh and expert kick directly to Krul's chest to send her backwards. Landing deftly on her feet, Krul would be caught in her momentum by one of Velora's shields, which rocketed her straight back at Velora who delivered a harsh punch right through Krul's face, knocking her straight to the ground. Grabbing her by the collar, Velora lifted her only to punch her straight back down. Lifting her again, she grabbed Krul's own blade and pinned her wrist against her shield, shoving the blade straight through Krul's hand and pinning her free hand against the shield while her other arm was still pinned to her side. The pain would certainly not be pleasant--and Velora grabbed her by the throat, pushing her back further against the shield and forcing her to look at her. Krul would feel that, while she was in this grip, she was having a harder time teleporting. Her focus in general would feel much more strained. "Viola is mine, and I want to hear you say it. Say she's mine, and you won't touch her again, or I'll cut your head from your shoulders right now." Krul may or may not recognize this--the Beast's Pressure, exerted upon her. This, at least, was manageable to call upon without too much risk. Under this Pressure, Krul was no stronger than a particularly strong human, and had no superhuman abilities whatsoever--including teleportation. Though she couldn't exert this force for an extended duration without risking the power fully unleashing, she could hold her here, in this Pressure, for more than long enough to end her sorry life. If Krul was ever going to succumb to fear and obey orders, now was probably the time. With Viola protected behind the powerful Velora, what choice may Krul have except to do as she was told? Perhaps like music to Viola's ears, not only to hear Krul say such a thing, but to say it in fear of her protector.(( OOC: ))

Krul clearly didn't care about being original when it came to winning, she took any means to win seriously, and the way to her win was exactly through taking the only person in the entire room Velora really seemed to care about. "Good. I didn't know just how much you cared for her, but now that I know...--! " Her words would go unfinished, as the sudden pain struck her arm, the pain would only increase as the burning sensation followed directly into her side as her arm became pinned by the blade to her own body! The pain in Kruls face was quite clear, even with her attempting to hide it with those narrowed eyes. She was JUST about to try and jerk her arm out of the blade, and to no comfort as it only added more pain with every struggle of that arm, which wasn't a lot of movement in the end, but it was at least an attempt! "Everything you do to me, I will bring back at her ten fold! " She threatened, how true that was was a mystery, it wasn't likely she would have much chance to get close to Viola again even outside of the realm. Still, the thought planted into Velora's brain might just aid her in stopping her from attacking anymore, for fear of putting Viola's life in further danger.
Had there been no affect, unfortunate for Krul, she would realize how much her words meant nothing, and how little of a threat she really was at this moment. With the kick to her chest, Krul was launched back several feet, only to be caught in one of Velora's shields, and sent right back to her angered daughter. It was after the first punch to the face that sent her to the ground, that Krul managed enough energy to free her arm from the blade that pinned it to her side, despite her situation and position, she moved very fast, fast enough that she was able to pull the blade from her body, and turn it towards Velora as she made her move to attack her again, only the blade would find it's way into her side! "I will never stop the hunt of anyone you care about..They will all die.. " She said coldly, her teeth bared in rage. Krul's rage certainly made her make..poor choices in life, her pride and goals were never to be knocked down, even in the most dangerous situations for her own life. She would face death right in the eyes before she gave in, and that went for the intense pressure she was feeling that really put a stop to all her escape attempts.
It was really hardly the time for such a silly moment of admiration, but it was Viola, and watching Velora nearly take Krul down so easily got her attention pretty much instantly. Heck, she even got to see Velora do things she never knew she could do before, which only increased her silent moment of fangirling. She didn't look...to obvious, all but her tail flicking happily behind her, and watching Velora intently...okay, maybe she did look a little obvious! Unfortunately she wouldn't get to hear Krul agree to Velora's demands, still, it seemed satisfactory enough to have her in the position she was now stuck in, with the Beast's pressure over Krul, she couldn't exactly escape now! She was completely captive with no way out, even after all her attempts to steal the powers from a God. It really wasn't helping her look very threatening, was it? To lose them so easily, and look completely pathetic all at the hand of her own daughter!

CamaelEven despite her intense focus on Krul and the severity of the situation, Velora's ears were really sharply tuned to the noise Viola's tail made when it flicked back and forth, and hearing that made her ears twitch, and brought some coloration to her face and a skip to her heart. It wasn't just her ears that were so attuned with her lover's tail, and gods was it distracting... but she couldn't let it distract her right now. At least, not for long. Keeping her attention directly on Krul, her eyes didn't show a hint of mercy, nor did they falter for a moment. "Wrong answer." She said coldly, grabbing her sword by the blade and pulling it out of Krul's weak grip. Her movement was harsh and authoritative, and she reared the sword back to make good on her threat.But the sword was stopped abruptly right before cleaving the queen's head from her shoulders,, her hand held in place. "We still have use of the Reaper Queen.""What?! Let me go, dammit!"Camael's demonic eyes narrowed, and he turned, hurling Velora away. Turning to Krul now, their narrowed eyes didn't soften. "You vex us." They said, grabbing her and lifting her slightly off her feet to bring her into a kiss. Ironically, this kiss was similar to the one they prevented--Krul would feel all that power she had taken from Nero flooding back into her, along with a surge of demonic power they gifted her, further amplifying her power tenfold. Letting her settle back down on her feet after, the demon dropped to his knees before the Reaper Queen, bowing his head. "We are yours." They stated, submitting to her rule at last--of their own free will.Velora caught herself in midair using one of her shields, landing deftly on her feet and grunting in irritation. "So when push comes to shove, you can't stand against her, huh? You just crumble to your knees for her." They may have had some defiance, but clearly they didn't intend to allow Krul to die. They'd sooner submit to her than allow that.(( OOC: ))

 This feeling of weakness from the Beast's pressure was possibly the worst kind of 'pain' Krul could ever really feel. Pain in itself was nothing, she over came pain, and most life-threatening situations far to much, but this? Helplessness, a weak and pathetic body? That was the worst, and no matter what Krul's attempt of tough spoken words came, it wasn't enough to hide that fact. Velora would see clearly in her eyes just how much she hated this, and that alone probably could make her daughter quite satisfied to know she was responsible for making her suddenly so angry. She braced herself, hoping that by some shred of her weak family-stricken mind ,she might not be so harsh as her words were, and simply stab her, she could recover from all kinds of wounds, but not a a severed head!
Then the unexpected, rather shocking moment came when Camael had a strange change of heart, it left the Reaper Queen puzzled, but still very suspicious. After all, he was the one who took all of her power away.
With Velora out of the way, she was left to meet the angered demons eyes, at this point, she really didn't know what to expect.What was he up to now? 'They' had use for her, but what exactly was that? And how would she prove useful with her powers gone, as she was? So many questions came up quicker then she could process, and it wasn't until she was lifted off the ground and brought right into a kiss. What?! He was...messing with her mind, or so she would think had she not felt the power she stole from the God of Wisdom, returning back to her, and even more power, that of Camael's own demonic power flowing into her with that kiss. ".......!? " ..In the back of her mind, she was still suspicious, but it was definitly not quite AS high as it was moments ago. As her feet returned to the ground, Krul was left in a moment of speechlessness as he dropped to the ground in front of her, to his knees. "...This is a nice view.." She said under her breath, the sight o f Camael bowing down to her, it was quite the welcoming sight. "I'll be watching you.." She said lowly, as if to say she didn't quite trust them yet.
With all her power returned, so did that confidant expression as she turned to Velora. "You are now my biggest threat, aren't you...daughter.." She said coldly. "I may not be able to take your life by means of, my way, but what would you do had you nothing left to live for? You are so disgustingly attached to her, without her, you wouldn't want to live, you would crumble and let yourself die. This is the route I will take now, I will take both of your lives. " Giving Velora no chance at all, with her newly gained powers, her speed would be unmatched to Velora's, nor could she predict her movement so quickly, at least not enough to stop her in time before she was suddenly right behind Viola, and her hand making it's way through her back, and out through the other side! Krul must of forgotten her existence, as Hana quickly stood to her feet. She would have to get over to Viola quickly to heal her FAST, but Krul was still right there...!

Velora Velora took in a deep breath, closing her eyes. Maybe she could have taken Krul, maybe she could have taken Camael. But both at once? Especially with Krul further empowered. ...She had no other alternative but to risk this. If she didn't, Viola would almost certainly die. Time seemed to slow to a crawl around her, as she zoned out everything else. She would need all her focus for this. Until now, utilizing the power she took from The Beast was like allowing small trickles through--like doing just enough that the sleeping bear wouldn't wake up. But now, she needed that bear awake--she had to open the proverbial dam and allow this power to flood. But she couldn't allow it all to flood. If she did, her demise would surely follow, and she had to save the full potential for Selene. As she focused on this power, as she raised the dam--the air around her would change. The amount of power she was gaining even by slightly raising that dam was immense. Cosmos would feel her powers begin to be siphoned at the same time. And thus became clear the real reason she claimed a goddess--not only to partner with her power, but to take that power for exactly this situation. Because Cosmos's strength paled in comparison to the Beast, but her divine energy was so immense, Velora could use it to try to safely channel this power--as safely as she could.
This power gathered around her, even changing her shape--her body became a vessel for this power, and her dark armor would become even more full. Velora's normal look was distinctly her, but now she resembled that of a black knight, bringing vengeance down to bear upon the wicked. Finally, a white mass of energy flowed around her constantly, causing her hair to wave slightly upwards as though a slight updraft was around her at all times, the hair having white highlight to it intermingling with that white energy.
Though Krul may have truly believed she could act before Velora's reaction, everything in the room would be thrown off-balance by Velora's movement, seeming to legitimately break the sound barrier as she was right there, holding Krul's wrist inches from piercing Viola's back. Krul would be met by a very menacing steely glare--the likes of which may have never been seen on Velora's face before. That glare bored into Krul's soul forebodingly--a stare that could almost kill on its own. "You should have surrendered." Her voice came out with a slight echo. Then, she pulled. Like someone might have pulled a door to open it. Barely more than a jerk, and Krul would feel her arm separate from her shoulder--Velora ripping her arm right off her as though it were less than a chore. Stepping forward, she kicked her in the chest, and Krul would feel as if her chest had just caved in--the excruciating pain of both of these two very simple attacks would be beyond unbearable. Raising her arm, she pointed at Viola, and Viola would feel herself slide over the ground along with her finger's movements, sliding her behind her knight in dark armor. Just in time to intercept the incoming Camael, who shot at her like a bullet--and Velora only raised her arm, catching his blade inbetween her index and middle fingers. Camael grunted in surprise--then, the slightest flex of her two fingers shattered the blade. Camael had to push past his shock, erupting a torrent of hellfire from his veins directly towards Velora. She raised her arm, stopping the hellfire midair and redirecting it straight back at him, splashing over his skin. Now, it didn't affect him nearly as much as it would've anyone else--hellfire was in his veins, it was comparable to a human being splashed with blood. Inconvenient, but not dangerous. Tilting her head slightly, Velora flexed her fingers, and that hellfire clinging to his form would morph into holy fire, causing Camael to begin screaming from the burning sensation upon his demonic skin. Raising her other arm sideways, her shield would swing around, clinging to her fist and then compressing around it--the entire shield morphing around her arm to create a dangerous metallic gauntlet. She lowered her other arm, stepping towards Camael and delivering a very, very harsh punch to his face with that metallic gauntlet--the noise ringing out like an earthquake. And immediately upon impact, Camael dropped straight down to his back, his hair returning to red and his form reverting to normal as he lost consciousness, utterly knocked out like a light.
Moving her arm towards Krul's direction, the queen would feel herself lifted off the ground, speeding towards Velora's open hand until her neck met it, the metallic gauntlet fist squeezing around Krul's neck as Velora pulled her around in front of her. She wasted no words--fully intent on crushing her throat while that steely glare bore into her skull. Perhaps the last thing she may ever see...(( OOC: ))

Krul let out a irritated noise, so. close. She was right there at the edge, about to take Viola's life in that instant, but the painful grip on that wrist would stop that reality from happening. "How!?" She couldn't even understand how Velora acquired all this power, her own daughter was now far stronger then herself, even with all the power she absorbed from Nero, and the given demonic power from Camael, no matter how much she gained, it didn't seem to be helping her here. But before anymore words could come from Krul, the only thing that would next come from her mouth was the pained, horrific scream as her arm was separated from her shoulder, with barely any strain on Velora's part.The pain was so severe, even for her, she couldn't think of anything else in time to prepare her for the next attack against her, and she was launched back with the severe kick to the chest. She wasn't getting up from that so quickly, her focus was trying to keep breathing while the panic set in, it may prove to be quite a welcoming sight for both Velora and Viola, Krul, just about panting, gasping for air on the ground. She would be no help to Camael even if she had some kind of heart to care enough to TRY and help. In the middle of her panic to keep herself breathing, along with a whole lot of blood loss making her vision blurry and her body weaker, she would use what remaioning energy she had to break Velora's sudden connection to her, before she fully had her at deaths door again. It wasn't so much the air loss she was afraid of, but knowing what she did with her arm, she could easily do with her head if the positioning was right. The demonic energy, combined with Nero's godly power would be only enough to break that connection, and teleport herself away from the realm.
"....." Meanwhile.. Viola was like she had become completely lost in a trance. Just.. staring at her amazing lover in the..black knight armor. That was...quite the change, much like her sudden incredible power. "Ohmygod...she's so hot.." She thought to herself, she was always hot, but this? ...It was making her heart race! With that kind of power she was displaying, she didn't even think about how Velora probably was easily able to hear her thoughts! "And amazing..I think I might die! " There was that tail again, swishing along with her excitement.
With one threat gone, and the other out of commission, she scooted instantly in front of her, practically hoping out from behind Velora where she was moments ago put! "You're so amazing! And this look is extremely fitting of you..no knight in the world compares to my strong, super hot knight in dark armor.! " She said with a goofy grin, before jumping up to latch her arms around her lovers shoulders, practically clinging to her. It didn't yet accure to her how much power she used, may not have a great result when things calmed down. Would she be okay after so much power was used? It was only moments after she latched herself to her that those thoughts started to cross her mind.."Oh...! " She finally let her go, her expression falling into that of concern.. "Wait, are you okay? ...I mean, really!? ...That power...this side of you...I've never seen it before.....Will you be okay?!"

VeloraVelora was actual milliseconds away from ending Krul at last, but like the cockroach she was, she managed to scurry away just in time. Velora partly expected this--she had to stop channeling her Pressure while she used this insane power--using too much of it at once would invite disaster to herself, and using both this power along with the Pressure was likely to do exactly that. While it was unfortunate she managed to escape, at least the situation was resolved for now. To think, the slightest flex of her power could result in THIS, in mere moments. Still, it was dangerous. Too dangerous to take out for every fight, and she knew this well. She may have begun to have issues if her focus had not been taken by Viola, who slid in front of her moments after the battle's end. And god--that tail moving back and forth hypnotically. It took all Velora's focus not to fall into a trance right there, but Viola would likely know where her eyes went. Clearly she wasn't the only one who thought the other was hot! At last, her gaze was able to tear away from that mesmerizing hot tail and to Viola's eyes, and Viola would be met by that steely stare, her eyes almost seemingly fixed into a permanently serious expression. Velora raised an index finger underhanded towards Viola, raising it as if beckoning "come here," but it would cause Viola to slide straight at her even before Viola could even jump at her. She wasn't the only eager one, it seemed, Grabbing Viola by her collar, she pulled her into a kiss. A... very... aggressive kiss, almost overbearing in how much passion she forced onto her girlfriend's lips. She forced herself further against her, one arm around her while the other lifted one of her legs as she practically dipped her during the kiss. Her hand around her meanwhile slid down her back and into Viola's shorts, gripping her rather shamelessly--and if she was asked in this moment, she would tell you how she literally could not care less if the audience nearby was watching or not. And really, she earned this little public display of too much affection! She had defeated two of the greatest threats in literal seconds while no one else did anything. She. Earned. This. They were lucky she didn't go further, because she certainly wanted to!
Once she finally pulled away, she may well leave Viola breathless, holding her arms as she raised to help Viola steady herself again. That steely stare was finally beginning to fade, as the power was slowly beginning to calm down... if not for Viola, that would not have happened so easily. She brought her mind and focus... elsewhere. And that allowed the power to begin to subside on its own. "Were... were you saying something?" She barely even remembered where they were or what they had done today. Her mind was so solely focused on one thought and desire, she was having a hard time even realizing they were in the Reaper Realm. Or that they had ever gone there in the first place.(( OOC: ))
