Never Seen Before Archer screamed, the vines cutting him and stinking into him. His scream was continuous, shrill with terror. This was one of his many nightmares. He writhed, trying to rip them off, his hands bloody from the thorns. He breathed fire, lightning shot from him, wind blew a hurricane around the forest, his senses dull from his terror. He yelled at the top of his lungs "No! No!!!! Light Light! Find me!" Kuchane rose, his features onscure due to blood seeping through all of his clothes. He walked toward Archer's screaming saying to himself in Azerian Light, darkness intertwined, will become more powerful than imagined. A force beyond either's control." A spirit of his ancestor walked with him as the ancestors suit. He neared Zeo, and looked up, his eyes white with eergy. He stood, mumbling ancient prophosies, looking at Zeo Zeo stood firm, his red glowing eyes showing the contrast between this being and himself. Archers wild attacks were all for not. Every time they struck the vines, the vines only grew more rapidly. The Branched vines grew above Archer, and everyone around him, only allowing small beams of light from the sky above to seep through. Zeo's power only grew ever more, he was feeding off of everything around him, not just emotions but souls themselves that still lay deep under the sand. The vines were leading directly into hell and absorbing the tortured souls from there to aid Zeo. He stole from the devil in order to become ever more stronger.

DarkRaven1217 Issildia leapt back into a one handed back handspring to avoid the dagger, she landed in a low crouched position to allow the dagger to fly over her. She then looked at Streak, a gaze of absolute rage, and venom centered in on him..."It ends now." she hissed as she stood from the crouch, she drove her blade into the ground and allowed it to remain there as her hands formed into a cross. Her index and middle fingers on both hands coming together into a cross, " Aman tel' Seldarine" she murmured, the blue of her eyes seeming to turn into a pale grey. Her hands then changed position so that the smallest finger on her right hand and her thumb were the only fingers sticking out, the other three curled under the index and middle finger of her left hand. " Elea ie' dome" she said, as the grey of her eyes was replace by black that gave her a rather demonic appearance. She then violently wrenched her hands apart so that the were stretched out behind her form. " Thanga yassen , Bragollach en' templa!" Issildia's eyes then changed from black to pure white, giving her the appearance of a specter. Thunder crashed overhead as the rain continued to pour, and light began to emanate from the area around the two of them, shadows also tore themselves away from the ground and joined into the spell racing around Issildia and Streak...a maelstrom of light and shadow. The tornado of light and shadow began to gain speed as it rose higher around them reaching up into the heavens. Issildia's arms then fell limp at her sides and her eyes returned to normal, she fell to her knees, blood now running from her nose and her normally olive toned face was ashen. The light within the spell began to brighten and the shadows grew deeper as the spell prepared to complete itself. Suddenly the maelstrom of light and darkness collapsed in on itself setting off a great explosion of pale silver fire and black flame that swept outwards consuming the area in its inferno killing Larovian and Ryera soldiers alike. It then ceased it's rage after spreading outwards fifty feet or so and retracted in on itself, the silver and ebony flames turning to smoke and ash as the spell ended. Issildia form then crumpled to the ground from exhaustion, she had been quite literally drained of almost all of her energy. She could only hope that the Memento Mori as the spell was called, would be enough to end her opponent for it was one of the most potent that she happened to have command over. Of course he would still live but he would have to find a new body to inhabit, because there was a good chance that this one would no longer be any use to him. Issildia weakly clutched the hilt of her blade Sumar and attempted to use it to sit up, but she failed at this and only managed to weaken herself further. She cursed at herself under her breath, begging the powers that be to fulfill her wish to let this battle be over, for there was little hope that she would be able to continue on in this condition... (Translations-*Spells based off of Elvish* "Powers of light and fell creatures of the Dark, lend me your aid" The remaining of the Elvish is a spell for a Curse and an Explosion of sorts) Streak's body lay lifeless on the ground, beside him lay a shadow almost burnt into the ground. Out of this shadow rose a figure. It was not physical but had control in the physical realm. It began to laugh. "You realise you have just killed your friend. The blood is on your hands and not my own. You are the cause of his death, just like you were the cause of Demitri's. Oh yes, I know all about Demitri. You'd like to believe it was your father's fault wouldn't you. It's not even like they were the only two. You cause pain to all you are close to, Streak, Demitri, your own mother. You've always been good at pasing the blame to someone else. There is no way out of your curse. You could have gone back, but you didn't. Now your have to suffer your own mind. Patefacio vestri eyes quod mens ut verum , ultra vestri lies." Latin Tranlation
Patefacio vestri eyes quod mens ut verum , ultra vestri lies - open your eyes and mind to the truth, beyond your lies.

Issildia struggled to a kneeling position, her right hand clutching the upright hilt of her sword, which was buried deep into the desert sands.
"Don't you think I know this..." she said bitterly, her voice greatly weakened by the spell.
"I have been born to a heritage that binds me to both sin and atonement, no matter how I wish to live I will always be a Nevar, I will always be the one left standing when my foes become the men that they once were..." Issildia said chocking back her emotions, "I can never have the life I want, because of the blood that binds my fate" She paused for a moment as she looked at Streak's lifeless body....
"I am and will always be...an Executioner..."
Issildia finally looked up at the figure her gaze, "But you are mistaken for Streak is not yet gone...you have your end of the bargain to hold up..."

Kuchane looked to his brother. "I will save you Joseph." He said in a dark, monotone voice. He turned to Zeo, and grabbed a vine in each hand, wrenching them from their places about his brother. He used his powers, grabbing at them with hundreds of hands made from sand, ice, fire, wind, and wrapping them around himself. He roared in pain, but continued, the vines ripping at him, draining his strength. Boaz shrunk in size slowly, his power being sapped at the same time.

"David! I do this to stop the evil in both of us! you will be appeased with my power, let go of Joseph!" Archer now writhed, trying to release from the vines, no longer slashing at them. He grabbed and pulled, breathing eratically. "Joseph is my dear brother, release him please. You may take my power..." He said tiredly, almost fadingly. He dropped his arms, letting the vines take him

The vines continued spreading over evrything. The sky which was barely noticeable was turning red from the glow of the vines and the souls from hell.

"Him!" he said, pointing his finger towards Archer "Let him go! My offer will only stand if he walks out of here!" He showed anger in his voice, his wings spreading. "Joseph needs to stand, and walk out of this place alive!"

"Joseph needs to stand, and walk out of this place alive!" Lucky for him, Zeo was feeling generous. Other than that, he had almost forgotten he was going to spare Ome. He only wanted to test him. " Heh, very well then...I'll let him leave..." Zeo's vines moved away from Ome, and formed a tunnel so Ome could escape.

Archer recovered quickly, and held his head. He saw Kuchane being taken by the vines. He looked at the tunnel, and was about to leave, thinking to desert his brother.
Kuchane screamed in pain, the thorns digging into him. His scythe, Dagon flew to him, but he dropped it. Dagon made a roaring-like sound out of anger. He started spinning, cutting the vines, and bouncing along with his own energy.
Archer turned at the scream "I love you brother." He said sarcastically, and slashed upwards with El. He pulled out his knife, and hacked a way through to a top layer. Archer stood on top of the vines, and used a manipulation of sand to propel him into the air. He jumped at Zeo, slashing El horizontally at shoulder level.

The Tenshi no Kage. The vines that were cut slowly came back together, but an opening was still left for Ome to escape " I will not allow you to take your brother now. A deal has been made, now go! Or I will force you to leave!" Zeo's voice sounded impatient as he stared back at the scythe that started attacking the vines. Zeo's sword pushed back El's sword on it's own, and started to give off a purple glow.

"Let me hear it from him! I will not give him up as easily as last time!" He slashed furiously with El, dropping his knife, he slashed again and again, fury powering his blows.

Zeo pulled David with his vines infront of Ome "Now speak David..." Zeo looked back at him " if he does not speak, it won't change anything...you will leave, and his body will be mine!" Zeo said without hesitation. If he had to push Ome out of this place with force then he would. David's words, and his sacrifice meant that much to him.
