Unable to recover himself from his disbelief longer than a heartbeat, Taliman sped up his retreat to full speed. Somehow Tybron had become a train with no brakes, he hardly noticed the attacks as he ran right through them. His blue eye widened with panic as he blasted back into the sky in an attempt to keep Tybron's attack away. As he did he threw both palms down and unleashed a hellish wave of ki down after his attacker, a burning purple wall that he hoped would speed up his momentum and singe Tybron to a stop. Something had to hurt him!

::That huge attack somehow missed. Though already gaining distance on his frantic brother, Deity knew he could move faster by making jumps via Shunkido. Which he did. Poof, on and off he turned his signature technique, and just like that he was underneath Taliman and his would-be showstopper. Throwing his upper body back, the boy clapped his feet together and catapulted them into Taliman's head. The sudden dropkick interrupted the ki blast and sent the little emperor even higher into the air regardless of his attempts to slow the seemingly unstoppable force once known as Deity.
Once the redhead was reeling, the taller of the two siblings again vanished, this time using raw speed alone. He reappeared in a different position, far above Tali, ready to catch his hapless brother with a follow-up.::

Spinning in agony, Wesley growled with a fury so hot he thought his head would just explode right then and there. This didn't make any sense!! As dizzying as his current movement was he could feel Tybron waiting for him ahead. A short blast of ki from one hand halted his spin and a visible effort halted his flight. He stuttered a bloody cough and glared up, seeing red.
"DAMN YOU!!"
Being thrown into a rage he screamed after Tybron with a wide right cross for the face in mid-flight, completely disregarding the burns on that hand. This can never happen to an emperor!! I'm the strongest man in the universe!! The great Taliman's once indescribable power was now failing him, and he really wasn't happy about it.

::As expected, Deity thought. This only makes things easier, now that I look at it. If Taliman's strategic mind is poisoned by his furious pride, he'll leave himself open to an attack. It's my job, the boy reminded himself as Tali approached, to take full advantage of the opening.
In came the punch. Deity pivoted his hips and caught it with his own right hand. With a spike of electrified ki he clamped down, pulled the fist in close. He countered by sending his own left cross over their connected arms, his fist surrounded by the same unstable energy that fueled his current state of being.::

Unsure of his own reflexes now, Tali winced and turned his head as he threw his left hand in the way of the cross. He successfully caught it, not without some measure of distress, holding on with all of his strength. The two stayed just like this for a few seconds. Mirroring eachother's actions, either brother held a punch and had their own ensnared, the muscles in their arms tensing as they tried to break the hold of the other. The longer he pushed and pulled, the weaker Wesley's hands began to feel. His whole body started to shiver under the effort. He was losing!! So without waiting for a broken hand he freely broke his own grip and attacked Tybron with a headbutt, throwing his whole weight into his brother's forehead.

::At last Deity flinched, unwittingly letting Tali go once attacked. A quick flash of light was all he saw as the headbutt landed, followed by a little blurriness - he hadn't expected it out of nowhere like that. Assuming Taliman would be suffering similar effects, immediately after the attack Deity didn't make any counter; he just pulled away and nursed the would-be concussion with one hand. So, apparently, he wasn't completely numb to pain in this state.::

Likewise Wesley was feeling the ill effects of the attack. But his head was accustomed to exerting that type of force. Getting in close to his opponents was sometimes necessary due to his small stature; this opened up frequent oppurtunities to headbutt his enemies. In result he typically recovered quickly from it, namely in comparison to someone like Tybron that could afford to keep his opponents more than a yard away.
Quickly shaking away the cobwebs, Tali gritted his fangs together and with another furious growl he spun about in the air and sent his right heel crashing into the back of his brother's skull. It was a full force blow without holding anything back. He might have pulled his punches before but that time had passed. This idiocy was coming to an end; Tybron couldn't have become an indestructible beast when he was but a crippled wreck only seconds before.

::Deity ate the entire force of the blow and - as one might have guessed - the kick sent him sailing away like a ragdoll, just as all of Taliman's attacks had done before. He bounced against the rim of a crater wall before grinding across the rocky floor and into the side of a larger hole, sending dirt and rocks into the air with a loud boom.
The end of his last wind? Not by a long shot. Not even downed for a full second, the tall Orinian burst back out of the rubble and took to the air, his fiery black aura still with unstable sparks of ki rushing through it. Though still dirty and wounded from the fight thus far, Deity seemed unphased by that last attack and showed the same level of intensity that he'd recently adopted, his glowing eyes tunnelling in on his target.
His aura roared and he parted the skies at full speed, aiming to crash through Taliman like the unstoppable train he had seemingly transformed into.::

"This is impossible," the demon ruler snarled as he saw his brother bounce right away from the kick. "You're impossible!!!"
He was defeated!! I'd all but killed him, this isn't fair!!! Taliman screamed an endless array of vileness and curses toward this dreaded scenario. The last two times the Wesley brothers had done battle, Tybron had turned into that vile beast. The red-headed monstrosity that these humans dubbed "Fierce." Two times Tybron was defeated. Two times the devil cheated Taliman out of his victory. The Emperor had already beaten his brother, twice. But he'd never had the glory of victory. This...thing, wasn't the devil, but it certainly wasn't Tybron, and it wasn't going to steal Taliman's victory away. Not again.
"NO!!" he screamed back at his brother. "I can't lose!! NOT TO YOU!!!"
Simultaneously with Tybron he bolted into full-speed flight. The exertion of power manifested as his aura flared up and tore up the sky behind him. His arms opened, claws splayed as he closed in on his fated opponent. Closer, closer, closer. The air between the two men shriveled in terror just before the collision. A thick shockwave emanated from the two brothers and clapped like thunder, the energy of two beings of such amazing power slamming into one another proving to be quite the spectacle. The dust and smoke that remained in the air visibly contorted and moved away as though by a quickly expanding invisible ball. Not explosive mercifully.

::Violet and bloody black, the two Wesley's energies twisted and raged against eachother, similar in fashion to how the men themselves did. Latched by the arms in a classic lock-up, either man had his left hand behind the other's neck and his right arm wrapped around the other's left in an attempt to break their grip. Wound tightly together, their legs fluttered loosely in the air as the contest of strength began, the increases in their efforts demonstrated by the wildly frantic motions of their collective energies whirling about them.
Deity's fiercely glowing eyes glared across the short distance at Taliman, into whose neck he'd sank his fingers into. He winced slightly as he fought against the little demon's grip, putting every muscle in his arms to the task at hand. Wind around them picked up - their auras grew wider and wilder, the residual energies again affecting the gravity of the battlefield. As stones and small pebbles began to drift lazily from the ground, the bloodied Orinian began to pull himself and Taliman higher as well. They were already quite a ways from the ground, but from what could be seen he wanted to be higher still.
With the effects of their war wreaking havoc on the planet below, the Wesley brothers whirled and spun as Deity aimed them further skyward, lighting up the early night sky. Whatever he had in mind, he wanted to execute it far higher up.::

Once again the length of the struggle dictated the level of clarity Taliman felt toward his newfound weakness in comparison to Tybron's raw power. This was insane! He pulled with all his might against his brother's neck but felt his grip loosening as his arm was pulled down and adversely felt no budge in Tybron's resolve. He couldn't lose. He wouldn't! Shouting against Tybron's attempt to break him, Wesley brought his body down parallel and struck with a knee lift. His left knee rose and crashed into his enemy's open right side, namely the ribcage.
Whether his human adversary loosened his hold or not, Tali threw a second knee. Then a third. Then a fourth. Then a fifth. Each blow was angrier than the last, the little Emperor chopping at Tybron's ribs like an ax to a tree.

::The knee kick repetitions were starting to itch a bit. Well in truth, they were hurting a good deal. Deity's glowing red eyes winced as he held that grapple as well as he could, refusing to let go even as his side was bombarded by his brother's attacks. After so many hits, though, frustration took precedence. Pain or no, he couldn't fight if he became too intensely hurt. As Taliman swung in with the next knee, Deity quickly intercepted by rising his own, catching the blow with the outside of his leg.
It didn't stop there. Not content with just a block to the attack, Deity's right leg deftly curved around to the outside of his opponent's left. Before Taliman was able to attack again to retreat, the tall Orinian curled his leg around the back of the captured limb and - with a quick twist of his hips - stabbed his opposite left knee into that of his opponent.
An spine-tingling SNAP resounded as Deity pinned Tali's knee inbetween both of his, shattering the joint like a rock between two sledgehammers. If any attack was loosening anyone's grip, that one would do the trick.
But it didn't stop there either. Having effectively removed one of Tali's legs from the fight, Deity sought to end the whole thing right here. Returning the dizzying gesture from a few moments ago, Deity kicked his legs away and sent himself into a spin, swinging Tali around like an Olympian competing for the gold. Easily a mile or so in the sky at least, Deity spun and spun and swung and swung, faster and faster, which surely didn't help his big brother's recently shattered knee any.
With no fanfare he let Tali go, throwing him not into the Earth but higher still, past what would be clouds had they not long since been blown away. As the demonic tyrant disappeared into the night sky, the lanky boy abruptly stopped his spin, squatted in the air and clapped his hands together in front of his chest. The gesture sparked into existence a little red ring of ki energy, which grew in size in accordance with the separation of the boy's hands. Once the ring was a little wider than a foot and a half, Deity collected his palms toward one side of it and held it away as it began to spin. The faster it spun the harder it was to make out - what became more apparent was the growing energy inside of it, appearing as a misshapen, golden ball of ki in the center of the crazily spinning crimson halo.
In no more than a second the strength of the attack was enormous, the sound of it similar to that of an obnoxiously impatient telephone ringing. That was that, it was set. Last shot, he stated firmly, bracing his right arm behind him as the Ringer Bomb hovered uneasily over his open palm. Taliman's momentum and recent injury would be enough for it to hit. Hesitating for but a breath, Deity heaved himself forward and released the attack, sending it at a wildly curving arc into the blackness above toward Taliman.::

"GAAAHHH!!!!"
The Emperor's eye squeezed shut as he screamed in agony, his leg contorting horridly as it was snapped damn near in two pieces. The pain was unbearable, broke his hold on Tybron entirely as his hands fumbled to grasp at his broken limb. Before he could he was being thrown in a wide circle, spun about like a rag doll. He hissed and cried as he begged for a moment to stop and nurse his injury. It felt like he was being spun for the rest of his natural life before he was finally released. Upon seeing that he was headed skyward Wesley made no attempt to stop himself. Nothing to hit and a thinner atmosphere would do him no harm. He curled into a ball and pulled his leg in, heavy breaths fighting hard to convince him they could ease the pain.
After having tumbled in the air for quite a few seconds he finally made a deliberate effort to slow himself. The air was thinner and cooler, and aside from a steady wind all was quiet. The demon monarch hunched down and sorely rubbed the area of his leg surrounding his snapped knee. That was when he saw it. It wasn't a little speck of light rising from the planet. It wasn't gradually getting louder from a distance. He had been so focused on the intense sensation of pain that he didn't even feel his surroundings until it was far too late. Taliman threw up his arms in a panic, the Ringer right in front of him when he had lifted his head.
"N-n--"
In an instant the night sky was set alight for all to see. Miles away from the spectators, they felt and heard nothing. At first. Only a gargantuan ball of golden red fire in the center of a rapidly expanding smoke cloud. The explosion filled one's eyes despite the distance and within a few seconds the force would become apparent. Several hundred mile an hour winds kicked debris into the air, half of the rubble caused by the explosive force hititng the planet. The sound was like a thick snap, likened to a whip cracking in slow motion.
As the fire in the sky died the blackness of dusk returned. The elements settled, the night gradually soothed itself into a calm. The Emperor was nowhere to be seen.

::Closer to the chaos than anyone - if not still miles away - Deity had to endure the worst of it. In his current state however that was an easy task. By the time it was over, his bloody, electrically charged field of ki overflow served as a beacon in the darkness, his aura now the only visible light in the sky. The remaining cloud of the Ringer Bomb had expanded quite some ways and filled the air again with an awful red and brown cloud, so sadly the stars couldn't be seen. But, was it over?
Silently, slowing descending, Deity touched down on the planet again after a moment, his chest inflating visibly with each labored breath. His wild hair now fell back to one side. His aura faded, sparks of energy crackling out of sight. His ki showed a dramatic plummet, and the glow of his eyes faded. Normal Deity again. He instinctively fell to his knees and clutched his throbbing shoulder, shouting in pain at the suddenly returning sensation. Using Level 5 was risky, he concluded as he applied pressure to the wound. His power itself was as injured as he was - had he remained in that state any longer, he could have dealt irreparable damage to his very ability to control his own ki.::
...if he....isn't done now...
::Sitting on his heels with a firm hold on his shoulder, Deity tipped his head back and gazed up at the hovering cloud above. He honestly didn't have a guess toward Tali's condition. Was he alive or dead? Was there anything left of him or was he even hurt? Only the next few seconds would tell.::
