Welcome to Gaia! ::

Bunko tried to restrain the young oni in her arms, since she was in so much pain. She couldn't understand it. No one even touched her, why was she writhing in so much pain when she didn't even have a scratch upon her. Well, that wasn't true. Hell, she fell outta the sky and created a crater like she was falling through jello.

Faya continued to cry out, holding her arm as tears came to her eyes. "I-It hurts, Mizu-chan! It hurts!" She cried out, not knowing what else to say besides that.

Toph, seeing the poisonous fumes that were beginning to seep from the sky, gasped. "What the hell?!" She exclaimed before she heard Oomizu's call. She quickly pick up Ty Lee, defeating her enemy before she tugged her away by the collar. Ty Lee had already been hit by one of the poisonous monsters, which was beginning to paralyze her anyway. She then sat down beside Bunko, panting lightly.

Bunko then saw Ty Lee and winced. Well, with Oomizu keeping her attention on Faya for the moment, she quickly began to heal Ty Lee, retracting the poison from her body as quickly as she could, so her friend would be safe and sound once more.

((Okay, everyone, just to let you know... BIG post coming up, Ruki... you know what to do? Okay? Okay. BREAK!))

((Alrighty!
Also, Mushy is suddenly not replying to me on Steam. I dunno if she lost connection and the system doesn't recognize it, or if she's just doing something else and not seeing that she's got someone waiting on her, or what. Will let you guys know when she starts talking to me again.))

((BAM! Extreme Post of Awesomeness!! xD
Ruki-chaaa n? Does this constitute as a WALL OF TEXT yet? lol))

Faya groaned once more before she opened her eyes. From within the sphere that Oomizu was using to protect herself and her friends, she could see the evil witch overhead, cackling something manacle. She seemed so familiar... She couldn't place a finger on it at the moment, but she just knew she knew her. She just didn't know how or from where. She closed her eyes as she scrunched up her face, thinking as hard as she could for the moment. Suddenly, the gems that were embedded into her chest began to glow, her eyes widening almost immediately.

"No..." She whispered to herself before she gasped. Sitting up, she forgot about the excruciating pain she was in long enough to realize who this person was. Although she wasn't the one who killed her mother and father, as well as all the orphans of the floating city, she was still the one who torched the orphanage and caused her to forget even doing it in the first place. That b***h. Her hands became fists before she began to stand. She could hear the voices of her sister and Oomizu yelling at her not to stand up, that she was too weak to. But as electricity crackled around her hands she looked down at them with determined eyes. "You two! Stop it! She is my problem, therefore my responsibility! Just... drop it!" She cried before she looked back up to Xuxa that was going around, sending devastating attacks in all directions, causing civilians to scream in terror before they were paralyzed and blown up on the spot. "I'm... sorry." She then whispered under her breath, not making eye contact with anyone for the moment before she stomped one foot to kick-start her ascent into the heavens.

She made sure to hold her breath, covering her eyes and other vital parts of her face as she flew up through the smog of poison and out the other side. She panted slowly before she turned around, quickly dodging an attack that wasn't really meant for her. But she kind of got in the way of to begin with. "You." She breathed as electricity continued to spark from her fingertips, fire beginning to travel up her arms in a spiral pattern.

Faya had never been this angry before in all her life. Well, she had never seen her parents murdered and set her home on fire before either. Nor had she never been controlled by an evil, she-witch... Well, yes she had, but still... She couldn't forgive this woman for what she did, and what she would continue to do if she wasn't stopped. Her friends could inflict some damage, but it still wasn't enough to take down this titan of the Oni universe. Such ancient and colossal power all harbored within one seemingly small woman. But she had a dark heart and she would whatever and kill whomever stood in her way of her goal, which was as clear as day. She wanted to control not only Quasar, but the entire universe that surrounded it. She would challenge even the gods and goddesses of Quasar to obtain even more power that would help her in her evil quest of domination. She... She just had to be stopped. And she would easily die to stop this woman. "This is it Xuxa, this ends today..." She hissed, glaring daggers at the woman before her, ready for anything she would dare throw her way.

Xuxa looked down at Faya before she scoffed, flipping a chunk of her dark hair behind one shoulder before she placed her hands upon her hips. "You are a pathetic weakling, Princess Faya." She told the girl, with rage dripping from every word. "Hear that? Yes, I called you princess. Oh wait! Now with you're mother gone, you are now Queen of the Oni Planet. Aren't you happy? I did you a justice Faya, I made you what you always wished to become... I made you the ruler of your own empire, aren't you proud?" Her arms were now crossed over her chest, the blue gems on her chest glowing brightly, compared to Faya's which glowed a dim red. She clearly had the upper-hand in this decided battle, yet this young underling was still going to challenge her? Oh this was just too delicious for words! Her head tilted to the side as she licked her lips, awaiting Faya's response and answer. Oh god, how she loved manipulation, it was almost as useful as seduction. The situation with Lord Inutaishou being a perfect example of that. Well, not point in lingering upon the past when she had a bright and purposeful future ahead of her. After she wiped out this band of 'heroes,' she would simply destroy the gods of this world and all of of the others' before she would have control of all life. Hell, she'd done it before eons ago, and she would be more than ecstatic to give a repeat performance to an entirely new set of viewers.

"No!" Faya cried, her fists before her as she shook her head violently. "I did not want to become queen from the spilled blood of my mother! Nor did I want it to come from the blood of innocent children as well! You're a monster!" Faya exclaimed before she charged up an attack, a combination of fire and electricity, before she sent it straight at Xuxa, tears streaming down her cheeks out of pure frustration and pain. She was frustrated with herself, with the gods. They knew this was going to happen, that this was happening to her, and none helped her. Why didn't those who knew helped her get rid of this evil witch? Why not Jack or Oomizu? Why not Spy? Why not Emmett?! She screamed loudly before she sent another wave, an even powerful one at Xuxa, wanting to destroy this person for all of the pain and suffering she has caused her, her friend, and especially, the innocent.

Xuxa smirked, dodging the first attack with wistful ease. "Ah, did I make the young girl angry? Oops! My apologies dear Faya, I didn't mean to make you upset." She told the young oni before she looked back to her, quickly blocking the second attack with a shield she had made from her dark powers. But it didn't cover all of her body, as the attack did burn her legs. She screamed out as she fell to her knees, although still in mid-air like she landed on some sort of invisible surface, even though there was none. "You little b***h!" She exclaimed as she looked up at Faya, rage shown clearly through her eyes as she reached out a hand, while one formed of darkness. This one was more demonic and menacing. It then shot out at Faya before it tore at her chest, actually drawing blood.

Faya screamed as well, falling to her knees as well. Damn that stupid connection that was between them. This was an even fight, yes. But was it one that could be won. No, there was no other option. Panting now, losing more energy with each and every attack that was thrown or received. "You deserve to perish from my memories, from my life, from this world!" She cried before she sat up. But she did so only to see a devastating attack that tore at her chest, actually damaging her enough to cause her to scream once more, flying backwards a bit, holding onto her chest. She closed one eye as a hand went to her chest. Once she did so, the stones that were embedded into her chest suddenly began to glow brightly. That was it! She now knew what she needed to do, but she needed to time it at the exact moment... So that all of this couldn't be repeated again.

When Faya was flung back and damaged by her attack, Xuxa stumbled back a ways, holding onto her chest as though it had been she who was ripped open. She actually begun to pant lightly, a bit hunched over from all of the power that was actually beginning to be drained from her being with each attack. "You stupid runt. You will not defeat me!" She exclaimed before she stood up, beginning to charge up another devastating attack of her own. "You are a poor excuse of an oni! You wold never make a good queen! You're the reason the FoQ killed your family! They were looking for you! They wanted what was inside of you, the power that laid untapped and untamed." She told her as she grinned, fangs now apparent as her eyes shown an icy blue once more. "You are an insignificant piece of s**t that have never amounted to anything and will continue to amount to nothing! You are a useless sack of flesh and bone that will attribute nothing to this world! The only reason you were born, the only purpose you had in this world was to be my carrier, so that I may be reborn back and conquer the galaxy as I did in times of old!" She exclaimed with yet another cackle before her attack was fully-charged. "Well now, my dearest Faya, it's time for you to DIE!! She yelled before she quickened her pace, crossing over the path in a zig-zag format, hoping to disorient her long enough to give the final, crushing blow.

As Faya listened, her head fell. As she did that, she could see her friends and comrades looking to the heavens, watching her and her actions. Tears immediately began to come to her eyes before she wiped them away with one hand. "That is not my purpose." She whispered to herself as she looked down to Bunko and the others, who looked up to her with worried yet confused expressions. "That is not my destiny." Her eyes then shifted upwards with her head, zoning in on Xuxa and charged up attack. "I know of your history, what you have done all those centuries ago. And you might be right, if you were talking about another person that wasn't me. I have done a lot to contribute to my friends. Well, not really in the field of combat like most... but I've always been the first one to comfort a friend when upset. And I've always been sure to greet a newcomer with the friendly attitude that is hard to come by these days! Any one of my friends down there can back me up for saying these things 'cause they're true! My destiny may have been to bring you here... in textbook terms, but I will do my damn hardest to make sure that you do not spill any more blood. Not while I'm alive!" She exclaimed before she noticed that Xuxa had finished charging her attack and was now rushing towards her with an intent to kill. "I guess this is it..." She whispered to herself before she touched her hand to the gems, now beginning to glow brightly. "Prepare to die Xuxa, you heartless wretch!" She cried before she unsealed her final, crushing attack. "PHOENIX REVENGE!"

Suddenly a large fireball exploded from her hands, but instead of this attack being the same where a person was unleashed, the large flaming bird dove right towards Xuxa, catching her off guard. It sealed her as well as her attack cleanly in its jaws, actually dispelling the attack before it could do any harm to others, before it turned around and sent itself straight for Faya. Bracing for impact, Faya closed her eyes and bit her bottom lip. It was nothing she had ever felt before. It was the most excruciating pain she had ever felt before. The only way she could possibly explain it was it was like being torn apart limb by limb while also burning to a crisp. It was the worst pain, ever. But Xuxa was once against trapped inside of her, her hands over the gems, as if it could actually keep her inside. "I-It's over... That evil woman... all of the pain and suffering she had caused. It's finally over... I won!" She breathed a sigh of relief as she looked down to her friends, actually beginning to descend down to them since the cloud of poison was dissipating since Xuxa was now defeated. "H-Hey guys! Guys! I did it! I did it--!" She cried with a wave down to them before her eyes changed from brown to blue, a growl soon escaping from her lips.

"Y-You little b***h! You don't have enough power to control me, let alone keep me in here! I am stronger than you in both mind, body, and strength. I will tear you limb by limb once I escape out of this prison like I did the last time!" And she was right, Faya had exhausted all of her strength with that last attack. It was just sheer will-power that was keeping her afloat, let alone keeping Xuxa in her trapped state. Unwillingly, Faya's hands began to remove themselves from her chest, due to Xuxa's control. But as fire began to leak out of the gems, Faya soon regained control, shutting her down almost instantly. "N-Nh... N-No! You will not hurt any more people! I will not let you! I refuse to! You have caused more than your share of pain and suffering to this world. To just let you go free and repeat what happened last time... W-Would be a mistake on my part, one that would ultimately cause this world's utter destruction!" She cried, tears of desperation in her eyes. She knew she couldn't keep this up any longer. But she knew she had to, for the sake of her friends who were watching her, for the sake of her mother and father's deaths. She had to keep trying. She just had to. But she knew this was a losing battle, especially when Xuxa regained control once more.

"You pathetic weakling! You think you could hold me?! Ha! I have conquered worlds and destroyed galaxies! I could easily break out and kill you, killing any chance this world has at stopping me! I know the power of the stones! If I destroy them, then the bond linking us will be severed and your life useless as it was meant to be from the beginning! You failed Faya! You failed!" Xuxa's voice rang clear as day in Faya's mind as well as through her lips. Her eyes were now an icy blue once more, the same as the evil witch's who continued to stay trapped. But if something wasn't done quick, it wouldn't stay that way. Not for a moment longer...

((no can do OMG this video is comming out awesome! O.o must finish it!))

((I think initiating a slow clap is in order. It appears I've been outdone in terms of Wall of Text posts.
Also, good job on that vid, Mavs. Nice use of that Meet the Pyro fan vid. Timing in general was great. Could have used a better quality version of the song, but that's just me being nitpicky.
Also, I'm a little confused as to whether or not Faya's on the ground or not, because one part you said she was descending, then another you said she was staying afloat. So I'm just going to assume in my post that she's very close to the ground.))

Spy watched, staying just far enough out of the way to not risk getting caught in the crossfire. It was amazing, really, that Faya had enough left in her to trap the witch again. He followed her to the ground, thinking it was so unfortunate that, even if she did, by some miracle, somehow manage to keep Xuxa trapped, her life would just be terrible, full of pain and lapsed memory. The witch was just too strong for her. He should have done more, should have found someone to talk with about spirits and how they could be handled sooner. No matter how much being told to do nothing had bothered him, he should have told someone, anyone, instead of just basically having a minor tantrum and keeping it to himself.

However, it was far too late for any of that, now. No use focusing on what he should have done, what could have been. There was only one option opened now, the kindest thing he could do for his suffering apprentice. Not wanting Xuxa to catch on to what he was about to do, Spy stayed cloaked, feet not quite touching the ground so he could move silently. He got out and flicked open his knife, and plunged it in between Faya's shoulder blades, severing the spine high enough up so that she wouldn't be able to move, to breathe, paralyzing even her heart. He didn't just let her fall, he reached around with his left arm, catching her and finally landing. The timer had run out on the device she'd given him, anyway. Spy let the cloak drop, and whispered into Faya's ear, "I hope you go to a better place than this one, my dear apprentice." Her brain should have been alive just long enough to hear that, hopefully, and maybe, some day, if there really was some sort of afterlife (respawn made him skeptical), she would be able to forgive him.

((ill be letting Dragon do the next post mostly cause right now i dont have anything to post that i know of XD im to exhausted from last night to think up anything fancy or creative right now XD ))

((tl;dr Version:
Spy shot the enemy Spy in the head, causing Francis (for what little bit both me and Mushy were able to do together) to get massive pains in his head and black out, Hungary pulling him off to the side.

Evil witch ghost lady Xuxa escaped from Faya, fought with a few members of the group a bit, got dragged back into Faya's body, where she would have broken out again had it not been for Spy stabbing her in the back and killing her.

The second murder I wrote just happened. Go from there, I guess?))

((and i made a music video too =D http://maverick4230.webs.com/index.htm ))
