Welcome to Gaia! ::

Giglamesh watched the disgusting machine, he looked closely at all of its joints, and bends trying to judge its mobility. It seemed to have some pretty advanced movement and bearing. It was going to be a fast little s**t, which would be a pain in the a** cause ichigeki...while his strongest weapon...it was also his slowest...and biggest. Giglamesh would fake a move by hitting ichigeki down against the ground, causing the droid to leap up in the air, trying to come down on him with his wrist blades. But it was just a ruse, giglamesh would twist his body around to the right side of ichigeki, with it across his lower back, he lifted it and continued his spin counter clockwise. As he brought ichigeki around he pull the chain on the back of the hilt, as he did a engine started to rev, with gig pumping magic in to the weapon to act as a fuel source, the large serrated blade started to spin, slowly at first then it became extremely fast.

As he brought the blade back around, he positioned his arm out to bring the massive blade around at the airborne droid, literally cutting right threw one of the benches like it was nothing in the process. He came in low only to bring the blade up high and downwards at the machines torso, the spinning chain saw teeth threatened to grind right threw his armor like paper, but few machines ever realized that. Once it hit, giglamesh just grabbed the handle with both hands trying to slam the machine to the ground, keep the blade grinding against it in the process. After the initial attack and drag, giglamesh would try to slash the huge chainsword off the machine, twisting his body to the left side of ichigeki, to bring it over his shoulder and back down vertically against the droid hard, again trying continuously applying force to cut threw the machines armor like a pop can.

River kept her gunblades holstered and instead focused her magic, hoping this fight would not last too long. She had been trying to up her speed in spell casting, and while she had not tried this before in battle she had been trying to fuse spells. She actually had been experimenting with the capacitor she had gotten months back so she could hold two spells at once within it, and although a few of the experiments backfired she had gotten a lot of data. She wanted to see how much control over the Thunder series she really had so she started casting Thundara with her right hand, and gathered more magic for the spell Thunder with her left. She had trouble maintaining the focus, but she was able to keep the two spells together and she released them both at once at the droid. Electricity still sparked as she took out her gunblade Sigel, she then ran forward with both hands on the gunblade, she used it almost like a dagger and tried to pierce the hard outer shell before she hopped back keeping at a distance.

As gig's massive sword started to cut in threw the droid's armor, it would strike the side of his huge blade, to deviate the force allowing it to move away before it was completely sawn threw, Even with giglamesh's devastating attacks, it was caught off guard and hit from two lightning attack from river. The machine was not damaged alot from her attacks, but it did have to reload many functions. For a moment it stood there while loading, and calculating beast plan of attack.

Within no time it found the best attack route. first it crouched down slightly and the multiple red lights on its head began to glow brightly. A red ring formed in mid air which was getting smaller. When that red ring became a disk, it fired a extremely concentrated beam at the ground and then moved that focused beam upwards it a vertical cutting motion at giglamesh. Everything that beam came in to contact with it shot sparks as the beam moved over. Then after the slight instant the beam was fired, then stopped its was like a chain explosion, exploding everywhere the beam touched, it was trying to blast the reaper back so it could begin its real attack.

Wsting no time the droid would leap up running across the backs of the wodden benches, with perfect balance running like a ninja. It ran right past river, then would literaly cartwheel over her doing the splits at it did. It would land still doing the splits, but would lash around with its left leg in a circular roundhouse, incredibly fast. From the roundhouse it would hop in the air spinning from the force of the kick, bringing its right wrist blade with a downward thrust at river. Hit or miss it wasted no time in continuing its attack by thrusting its left blade at river, then whether it hit or miss it would open up and release a five round burst nearly point blank at river.

Giglamesh got ready to evade, but a sudden odd feeling came over him as the machine did that attack. Gig could not see it but a new crest with a eye at its center formed on his left eye, he he had his materia, and soul stone. Giglamesh wassnt sure why but that spell it was doing, it like....some how he was reading its crest, and gig understood it also. It was a very weird feeling to read something like that mid fight, he did know how to explain it, it likes he was learning how to use that spell as he was being targeted by it. But unfortunately ....he was also focusing on his own thoughts and then the incoming attack, he barely managed to put up his left arm to cover his face from the beam of energy. The laser cut him just like any blade, but then as everywhere it touched exploded, being the surface of his skin he was thrown back on to the ground sliding several feet.

Giglamesh would begin to get back up, but not as fast as before, threw the fights on the train, he had taken a decent beating it it was starting to weigh on him. giglamesh managed to stand back up, but he was breathing heavy and sweating, he was almost out of magic, he was getting somewhat tired. But he didnt have much choice he had to keep going. He would focus threw the pain and being worn out, to that spell. That laser the droid had hit him with....he had been hit with laser beams before...so why was that one different, why did it affect his mind this time. Out of every thing, it was so odd because from that single attack against him, he knew how to do it...just as if he had trained with it many times before. gig knew how to channel and direct the attack, just from that observation of it, he didnt know how or why, but he knew that he knew it. Giglamesh would then in a similar motion slide his feet apart crouching slightly, his arms out to his sides, ichigeki in his right hand. A new red four pointed crest would appear over his left eye, and a ring would form mid air that was shrinking in size. "HrrrAAAHHH!" As the circle became a disk a beam would fire out of giglamesh's left eye and he moved his head in a diagonal up and right sweep at the droid. The laser cut threw multiple wooden benches like there were nothing, it would slice right threw the small upper arm of the droid. The laser barely missing river, passing way to close for comfort past her right side, up the wall and on to the ceiling slightly, then everywhere the beam touched would explode outwards slightly.

Then with a open chance giglamesh would rush in, taking ichigeki in both hands swinging from his left slide as he slide his left foot out. He would slash extremely hard as if swinging a baseball bat, at the back of the droid. Even after it would hit giglamesh would continue to push and force the large chain saw blade against the droid's metal surface. Sparks would spray down the front of the sword, out in front of giglamesh as gig tried slashing the massive chain saw sword straight threw the droid. With the wide reach of ichigeki, and the machine being so close to river, river would have to dodge as the incoming slash, that went threw/hit and pushed the droid why it was attacking river. Even as she avoid giglamesh's slash its reach would slash threw the wooden bench behind her as she would see the rotating teeth rip threw every thing it touches.

River wasn’t expecting her gunblade to do anything , but the fact the spells did so little was unexpected. She looked down at her gunblades then back up and saw a red circular light. She was caught by surprised watching the destruction then caught movement out of the corner of her eyes. She raised her hands trying to block, but instead the robot went with a sharp low kick knocking her off balance. She saw another flash of movement and saw it was above her. She raised her gunblades blocking the blow and her right leg, sore from the kick buckled letting the next attack hit. When it started firing at her she scrambled out of the way getting hit twice. There was a red glow and another laser came, this time from… Gig? River thought surprised and she froze as it swept by her, a hairbreadth away. Gig then came running over with that monster weapon and she jumped out of the way, hopping once more onto a chunk of debris that once was the train’s bench. ”Oi, oi, oi!!! Where the hell are you aiming??” She said with a glare as she hopped off before the wood landed. She holstered her gunblade Niht. Freaking brother… Sheesh… She thought with a scoff. She then gathered her magic again. Though it did next to nothing last time, she had an idea that might do more. The spell Thundara wrapped around Sigel and she ran at the machine aiming a thrust of the gunblade into one of the deep grooves Gig had made with ichigeki. She released the spell with the gunblade imbedded then took out a grenade from her nade belt shoving it in the crevice before she pulled the pin. She then back flipped back before the grenade went off.

"Systems critical, system critical, Error Error! Engaging forced restart." giglamesh had removed its left arm, and cut about half way threw its torso, with river putting the grenade in to the hole, and firing a few more circuits. when the grenade finally went off in the large hole within its body, it system were so damaged, it....just stood there. It was trying to restart its programs, the damage was to severe and it was reading the damage as a "error" so to try and fix the damage it was trying a restart. It was trying to lie to itself to, that it was undamaged But looking at its top half barely hold attached to the bottom, it was obvious that the damage was real.

Giglamesh would twirl icigeki a few times before coming in a with a massive hard right swing with ichigeki, this time swinging the far end for maximum focre do to leverage. Giglamesh giant chain saw cut the uder where the left arm was and out above where the right shoulder was severing the top of its body with its head, sending shards of metal and it upper portion airborne off of its body and crashing to the floor. It started to say error again. But giglamesh just walked over and crushed its head under his heavy right boot, making sure to grin his foot a few time to break parts from other parts.

giglamesh would sigh, and take out his cell phone. the train was starting to slow down more, it was almost stopped. He would dial somebody phone number and hold it to his ear with his left arm. "Ahh Mester riiper, you finally make call..." "I would ask how you knew it was me, but im sure you already figured out...that i already figured out." "....Yes, i know ju are note fan of being used but" "Save it fry face...i got a favor and you owe me because of this trap you sent us on. .....When you kill the real senator...have the knights still make it look like river did it." "Ohh...A odd request but, i vill do eet....." Over the phone you could hear her taking a hit from the cigar. "I vonder thu....did ju kno it vas trap, hol time?" "....Lets just say, i know that you dont trust a mission of this importance, on somebody that aint part of your "com-rads"....make it happen." Giglamesh would hang up on her, most of his wounds had stopped bleeding, but he was still in pain. Giglamesh would begin limping somewhat using ichigeki as a crutch of sorts. "...well...that was fun....lets get out of he!?!?" The ground jerked as the train picked up speed.

PLAY THIS NOW BEFORE YOU READ NEXT PART OF POST!!!

The train would very suddenly begin to pick up pace....as in full speed pace. The noise of several locks coming undone. Then the rail car seemed...to raise, a few spots on the roof would lower and turn sideways as locked came undone. Then this sides of the rail car would lay flat, the ceiling halves on either sides of the wall, became floors, and the walls became extensions of the floor. Cable retracted from opposite side acting like a dome, and then energy would literally form over them. the entire train, minus the engine, turned in to a halve cylinder cage trapping river and gig inside. then things only got worse. The back half of the train engine.....stood up. Pannels began to fall off and parts began to twist and transform in to its real shape. A huge mech stood and began walking across the platform, that the train had become. From behind the train in the distance a large platoon of soldiers came speeding up behind the train was a mobile unit on motorcycles.At there fore front a single unit, more then likly the unit lead, on a more advanced motorbike.. They would speed up bedhind the train...apparently...nobody was going to be able to escape.

The assault mecha would walk forwards, cocking back the large cannon on its right arm, as it approached gig and river. Giglamesh would sigh, and pop his neck back and forth to each side. "Hey riv...go start the car...ill take care of this, and the barrier." Giglamesh would begin to slowly walk towards the mech, As he did he would take out a single small vial from his coat, remove the cork, and chug it down like a shot, throwing the bottle against the barrier where it would then break. The mecha would aim and fire a single round at giglamesh, which exploded incredibly violently, great is also used 505 shells. before river would say something in worry about the high damage shot, giglamesh would come sliding out from the blast and smoke holding ichigeki in front of him left hand on the back of the blade. He used ichigeki like a shield, blocking the bullet, the force pushed him back a decent distance. "River! fall back!.......you know...im kind of glad...this means...ill get to use my new attack in combat for the first time....im grateful...let me show you ....how grateful i am." after he told river to fall back he would begin approaching the mecha again, just walking torwards it, as it cocked its arm reloading its heavy 120mm cannon.

Then gig would stab the tip of ichigeki down in to ground, and he would...oddly kneel behind his chain saw sword saying a prayer. Cuando me levanto mi reluciente espada,...... y mi mano empuñe el juicio,..... tomaré venganza de mis enemigos, y yo pagaré los que mi haze...... Oh, Dios, me plantean a su mano derecha y me cuentan entre tus santos. The white of gigs cloak seemed to glow like the sun, and a huge white crest of light would form on the ground under him shining upwards. The crest looked a great deal like a...celtic cross?

This was only the beginning of the craziness, as the light would literally bend and begin to move and form around giglamesh, and finally sink in to him. Then from multiple points on his body, out from his body transparent ..what looked like pieces of armor would begin to form. Large demon skulls would form on both of his shoulders, each skull with a large rigid horn sticking out of the center of its skull. Over his chest, a chest plate would appear, this chest plate had the visage of a vicious looking demon skull's face. On his forearms, gauntlets would emerge out, the would have the depiction of souls being taken by a single warrior. Then then half of his skull mask would form all the way across his face, and the horns would get much larger, pushing his hat on to his back, lower jaw bone halves would form on giglamesh's lower jaw. The top and back half of giglameh's hood would form cloth down to his coat, and his coat would reshape in to a robe concealing the rest of his body.

What started to look like a holy blessing, had twisted in to what looked like a evil ritual, as giglamesh stood there in a robe,with armor over his shoulders, chest, hand and forearms, and finally the grim looking demon skull over the upper half of his face. The only skin showing was giglamesh mouth and cheek, as within the black eyes of the demon skull only the right eye would gleam blue. It was not done, the last part, was bones emerging out from giglamesh's back before they would sprawl out as wings made of bone, the skin long gone, and only tapers and bit of flesh remained. Giglamesh would exhale heavily and it was as if the air around him had gotten incredibly cold as anyone could see giglamesh exhale, then with the wings sprawled out he would flap his bone wings a single time, which lifted him in to the air off the ground slightly...gig was....flying!?

Giglamesh was floating there in place,literally looking like a depiction of the real grim reaper, clad in armor, wings and everything. Gig wanted to turn to see her reaction..but...he had business to attend to. Giglamesh would slowly float back to the ground. Then all his solider, grim looking gear...would become transparent, it was there, but it was not solid all of it was made by the "aura" magic, gig just molded it to look the way he did. Giglamesh would just smile looking at the, now approaching mecha. "...I feel for you...intimidation is not something you can feel....its a shame, if you could feel fear....it may very well spare you from destruction...." The mecha would flip out blade out on the top of its right wrist, the blade would then begin to hum,...yes hum as it vibrated at such a high frequency one could hear it humming. Then as it would rear back its arm slashing at giglamesh he would stop it easily with his own blade. As both blade held back the other a massive amount of sparks would spray out around the center of the two. The mecha was at least twenty foot tall, yet gig held back its slashing blade with a grin. But gig had only started, he would lash ichigeki pushing back the mecha's slash, then he would take the stance.

"...And so shall he burn, he whom stand in my path of justice. Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust!" Giglamesh with his left hand on the flat side of ichigeki would slide his hand down the flat surface of it, and it was as if by moving his hand down it he was revealing large glowing red runes. With a slash to the side then back in front of him the blade would suddenly furiously catch aflame. Then as he grabbed the pull start at the back of the engine hilt, and slashed the blade to it was pointing behind him, yet keeping his lefft hand in front, thus pulling the engines pull start, the serrated shark like teeth of hissatsu ichigeki would begin to rapidly spin. With the flames it would almost look like the teeth had extended the width o ichigeki by a foot, from the front, back and tip of the blade. Even as the flames went out and the teeth glowed bright red, it looked at is the edge of ichigeki was a energy from the intense glow.

The mecha had already regained balance and began to strike its blade down at giglamesh again, only to impact the floor, giglamesh was gone. Gig was midair over the mecha's arm, but it wasnt a jump, that was about to be made obvious. Mid air giglamesh would with his incredible speed blur as white around to the right side of the mecha, mid air it would again flash threw at the mecha slashing violently in passing. From upper right side, he flashed to lower left side He would then flash behind the mecha flashing from the ground upwards, slashing violently vertically in passing. Mid air he would begin to front flip quickly letting gravity pull him down at the mecha for his next slash. From the front flip he would slash vertically down incredibly hard, keeping continues force even after the slash, letting the teeth begin to get a taste of the mecha.
