Bix had been lurking. He'd been sneaking along the outskirts of the battlefield until his King had appeared and called. The albino serpent man rose from his observation point.
He'd watched the Blacks turn on their king and now one of them was trying to stop it. If they wanted to kill their own King who was he, as a White, to stop them? A volley of glowing white arrows buried into the shadow.

His expression remained the same as the creature grabbed his scarf and tugged him forward. Wilson tried to examine its face, but considering its appearance, that was a rather difficult task.
The king stiffened. It was difficult to make out its words, but he had heard enough. “I’m sorry.” He wasn’t. “This is the end you’re seeking.” He doubted it. “For the greater good, a sacrifice has to be made.”
Wilson glared at it before he raised one arm, one spear--
"HOW ABOUT YOU WORRY ABOUT THE CRYSTAL INSTEAD OF TELLING ME MORE STUFF TO ******** DO WOMAN." Jesus, This was a battlefield, SHE WAS MAKING IT REALLY HARD TO BE PRODUCTIVE WITH ALL THESE ORDERS.
"I'll move if I have to, right now we focus on what we need to do. You forget if you Die, Then we ******** don't have a crystal to kill Wilson anyways."
s**t ******** damn s**t ********. It was the same strand of thought when he was defending Ceres and that group. Could nothing just be simple?

It was hard to tell if the spear impacting the 'Silver King' had caused it to collapse or if it was already collapsing prior. There was no audible thud or shriek or anything, as if the weapon had passed right through it, just as in the same moment it simply fell apart.
* 'If you insist,' Stated the Pillar, majestic and regal. 'I will not stop you, if your story is incomplete, yet you may find only a tragedy that awaits for you.'
It hissed. "I will be crowned the True King."
Pause. The glow softened. 'There are no Kings, no true Kings, not any longer. The spirit of man has been shattered, and with it resides a deeper darkness beyond my ability of Protection. It is hollow, it is empty-'
"It is mine." The fragment seized the chance anyway, because that was all it had been created to do. It had no other purpose.
*
The spear clattered onto the ground, dissolving as well into the same tar-like substance, leaking all directions. The earth began to cave in, forwards, downwards, leaving a terrible black gash all directions around it.
And at last that crown, still sold and standing in the black abyss, began to unravel, instead of disappearing, growing a little more solid, each frame, each piece branching apart, further and further, until it formed a strange, odd cocoon in the black mass below. It didn't move. It was shaped in size enough to roughly contain a single person. It dissolved any Miasma that came close.
She had only been able to watch, quivering with soundless fury. To think that it had come to this! Everything had progressed so smoothly, and then, without warning, the very fabrics of this place had shuddered again, and Aymet had suddenly realized their true, traitorous intent.
A single glance had been enough to drive him into a rage, and Nevena had no time to react even as a sword ripped through what was her Miasma. She gasped from the pain before her hair flared about her like a writhing halo, a deadly, monotonous hiss filling the air. A glance was spared for Night, but not for long. No time to focus.
"You fool! You aren't real! None of this is!"
Her words were emphasized with a loud crack as her hand swung to slap Aymet across the face as hard as she possibly could.

Whisper was calm, and focused. She knew well enough that if you let rage and battle lust take over, you were sure to die, and that was not part of her plan. Her first priority of course was to fight for her kingdom, and though that was the kingdom of revenge, she couldn't help but feel a twinge of sadness. Their kingdom had unfortunately collected the least miasma, and they were receiving their punishment. However, now others were suffering for their failure. It was a terrible conflict, but regardless of any internal conflict she had to follow her king. If he had ordered that she should just lay down and let the end come, then so be it. But he did not. He had ordered them to fight with everything that they had. So that is what she planned to do.
Her head ducked when she heard the bullet, it barely missing her. She would have let out a growl if she could, but she was in her more human form. Whisper turned back to her original target, staying true to her course. "Was that question to me? I fight for my kingdom, and for my king. Just as you or any other here. I'm sure you would have as much passion as I had you witnessed what I just have. And though against my nature, I wish that none should ever have to."
Perhaps she wasn't the most vengeful of all the shadows, but she would stay true to her task. She lashed out with her clawed gauntlets, attempting to take a chunk out of her foe.

"Wha-" Night hissed at Merope, what was this kids deal? Honestly if the dragon thought this was better to leave Aymet like this, then he hadn't been paying attention to Medea and her words.
Night would believe anything the horsewoman had said, she was...what? Memories fogged together. A night he was on the road, a small shade abandoned by his parents. When he was nothing it was Aymet who extended a arm, a hand and took him under his wing.
He trained him, fed him, bled for him. He shook his head and tried to clear those memories away.
"The only imposter here is you. I want MY friend Aymet back. Not the one who hides under a dream."

While the chaos of battle may have disoriented others, it only served to excite the shadow raptor, to increase his hunger, his thirst for blood and battle.
His eyes locked on a creature of white, a creature that look especially appetizing. His grin spread, and leaving his previous target, ignoring the one who had struck him, Rex lunged, charging with gaping jaws and sharp pointy teeth!

Maple ... just had no idea what was going on or what all the Shadows were going on about. Imposters? Traitors? The real versions? Cowards?
What was going on? What was going on with the King? Her kinsmen. The Sky? It was cracking, it was growing pale and distorting.

The Fool slunk onto the field, her form low to the ground, ruby red flecks for eyes scouting the area for the closest target. She hopped off of Balthazar's back, body stretching into that of a large cat, her red accents taking on the appearance of violent red stripes.
"Hello," she purred, charging towards a man with a bow, her teeth the inky, ebony black of darkness, jaws stretched wide.

The death evoked no reaction from the White King. He only opened his hands to let the tar slide through his fingers and splatter to the ground. Wilson smiled when he noticed Bix come toward him.
"Bix--"
And then two soldiers were upon him. Wilson snarled at them both as his arms transformed into green vapors of poisonous gas and pushed them both back. "Back away from my officer."

"I mean He isn't who you think he is!" Amrita hissed at the poor confused Arynek, torn somewhere between annoyance and grieving. "The real one is sick, sleeping somewhere. Please, we have to--" She paused then, her darting attention forced to move towards another, Marzena. "I know who I am." Now more than ever, but how could she tell a group of people that all of them were fake? Especially since she was trying to get them on her side! The 'Queen' raised her arms, trying to defend herself from the brief onslaught of attacks by the other Shadow Creatures, and then Merope's voice cut through the air.
"What, do you want me to ask nicely? Dear Mr. Shadowlord, your mere existance is making my friend sick and probably killing him as we speak. Could you just...I don't know, Stop Existing? At least long enough to save my friend?" The sarcasm was absolutely dripping in her voice, her body language easing to mimic it. "Please. Seriously Merope, when doesn't that have to happen?" She'd killed and been killed in dreams before; it was pretty much daily life by this point. "I'm doing what my gut tells---"
Aymet spoke, and his words cut deep. Imperfect. Lost. Confused. Insane. Weak, his words screamed to her. Everything she believed of herself, laid out for her in a few simple, angry sentences. It was almost like he knew her - the real her, and not some fake Card-Shadow - and wanted her to know it. She had never been very good at handling this kind of mental attack; she believed it to be true, no matter how she tried to ignore it. It was always the one thing that would stop her in her tracks, to make her second guess, to make her despair. This Aymet may have been an imposter, but hearing such things come from his voice...it hurt more than she could have imagined. The Death Sentence was expected, but it didn't matter; they could kill her, but it would've been his words that actually wounded her. It was a lie, right? Just cruel words from an Imposter, right? Aymet wouldn't---
And to think I trusted you.
Ow.
Suddenly, everything changed; the hurt smoothed over into confusion as he seemed to see something in them. Perhaps...the illusion was shattered? Medea's magic was wearing off? Either way, the sudden outburst was enough to clear her head, to pull her from that slippery slope that was her own self-esteem, to remind her of her purpose here, and why she was fighting.
"No. Your Shadows don't exist, and neither do you!" Amrita hissed, her insecurities fading away in the ever bubbling anger that crawled just under her skin. This wasn't right. This had to end. She had to help end it.
"GIVE AYMET BACK!" She cried out, lunging once more for her once-King.

Sinclair had just attacked something. Or someone, if there was a human mind underneath the great shadow raptor -- he couldn't know, and for his own benefit, chose not to think of it. All he knew was that it was from the Black Kingdom, and for now, they were the enemy.
But all he could really focus on was that Zephyros was safe.
The raptor lumbered away to attack another target, but as Sinclair ran, something caught him off balance; a leg or a weapon, he wasn't sure, but he was falling forwards into the dirt. Scrambling up before anyone could take advantage of his stumble, he ran to Zephyros' side without looking back.
"Zephyros!" Sinclair gasped, for once not caring (much) about how utterly graceless his entrance was. "There you are... I knew I'd see you again..."
Over the din, he heard a familiar voice. The commander. He cut an unmistakable figure amongst the battlers, and even more noticeable were the spears he now wielded. But then, Sinclair's eyes were instantly drawn to the figure in front of him -- if it could even be called something as concrete as a 'figure'. Upon its head was the same crown the Silver King impostor wore earlier, but now it was a shapeless, oozing mass, and blackness seemed to spread from beneath it until the ground itself was torn asunder...
Sinclair had made a promise to the White King. He couldn't in good conscience leave him there.
When he turned back, there was another shadow from the Black Kingdom attacking Zephyros. Sinclair was too late to stop her attack from reaching its course, but he wouldn't let that happen again. "Come on," He tugged desperately at Zephyros' arm. "We need to go! Now!"
It was strange, though... why did he feel so tired? As he ran, his legs felt heavier...
