Daxic sped his steps, feeling the war between Jynx and Xenmas come to a subtle close. Arriving at the second floor, however, he didn't expect to see both Saix and Xaldin standing at attention. Apparently, they didn't expect to see Daxic either. "Daxic, what are you-?" "SH!", Daxic interrupted. He quickly whispered a false plan to the former allies. "I'm leading the Exiled to you right now. Act like you don't know me, and get your weapons out. I'm going to act like I'm fighting you, but I'll really be helping you." Xaldin nodded his head, while Saix simply stared at the stair case behind Daxic, waiting to see someone. The three then summoned their weapons and stood in a fighting stance.
Xodyc walked around until he found a staircase. He started to ascend them, unknowing of what was ahead. He then saw Daxic, Saix, & Xaldin.
Xishn lonce again rested his hands behind his head and stared at the massive gates. They were the last few to enter and he suddenly noticed Xodyc looking at Daxic, who was accompanied by Xaldin and Saix.
"There's trouble." He informed the two behind him. Zhymarx gazed at the spectacle. "Xaldin...and Saix." "Sounds tough." Salix said quietly. "Looks even weirder with that Daxic guy beside them." Leered Xishn.
Banxon got past the gates and into the castle, seeing nothing but a staircase. He went up the staircase to see Xodyc and the other three men. They were all staring at something.
DrBanxon moved to see what it was, only to find the one called Daxic and two others that Banxon guessed were Organization Members.
What's going on here...?
Daxic glanced back to see the group of nobodies behind him. Show time... "It's about time you got here!" he screamed at the Exiled. Clinching the chain of his weapon tightly, Daxic slung the sythe part toward Saix. It wrapped around his neck, and he yanked Saix toward Xodyc. It seemed reasonable...claymore against claymore. He then charged at Xaldin, sword raised. As he swiped at him, Xaldin took flight. Daxic now under him, Xaldin shot one of his lances at him. Daxic attempted to move to the side and out of the way, but the lance went straight through his right arm. Daxic was pinned to the ground, blood was slowly seeping out. Xaldin's brow twitched as he wondered if that was the best move to make. His gaze then found its way to the Exiled, and he decided it was time to take things into his capable hands.
Xodyc glanced at Daxic when he noticed Saix coming towards him. He quickly drew his claymore & blocked Saix's attack. "Hmmm... interesting. Let's see who's better." Xodyc said as he threw Saix off of him. He then charged but Saix blocked him & threw Xodyc away. Saix then went berserk & began attacking him. Just what I need. Xodyc thought as he tried to dodge one attack after another, but Saix was faster & knocked Xodyc to the ground.
"Lovely" Zhymarx said as he watched Xodyc and Daxic rush headlong first into the battle. Xaldin locked his spears together and formed a long and spiked dragon and charged towards the largest group of Exiled members. Salix and Xishn jumped out of the way while Zhymarx sort of hopped upward and amazingly stabbed the sharp edge of his staff into the dragon's makeshift head. Xaldin wasn't totally surprised though and pulled out spear from the dragon's body and slashed Zhymarx with it. Zhymarx, keeping his cheery face, dodged this and balanced himself on his staff, the 2 green jewels in the staff's head began to flash as a strong flare threw Xaldin off his dragon.
The dragon suddenly dismembered into many spears on the ground, but Xaldin quickly gathered them with a strong gust of wind. Then it formed a tornado around him. "impressive" He commented Zhymarx as he too landed on the ground gently. Xaldin then looked at Salix and Xishn, who decided to stand defensively. "I see, it's you three. You're friends with that other traitor, the Nobody who also wields the key..." "Who are you talking about?" Salix asked coldly and deliberately to get his attention. "Ah...Salix, how interesting. Of course you would deny ever being..." he paused and peered at the other 2 "...friends, even with fellow traitors." "He's serious. We haven't a clue what you're talking about." Zhymarx told him." "Trying to find a way to distract us from the fight?" Xishn mused in. "Right. No point in talking with you." He said as the tornado around him grew larger and stronger. Zhymarx tapped his staff on the ground and a large black circle with symbols flashed underneath them. They quickly sank within it as the wind blew through. "magicians." muttered Xaldin, as the 3 suddenly dropped out of the ceiling like drops of rain all in a battle stance.
All the while Saix had been overhearing this and decided to make it a point that he would like to finish off those 3 if possible. They were after all quite a nuisance back then....
Cursing, Zaverxi strides along, still searching. In this way, he happens upon the fight between other Exiles and Xaldin and Saix. Keeping to the shadows, he watches them fight with narrowed eyes. "Maybe those two might know where Larxene is." he comments to no one in particular. He looks over at Zhymarx, Xodyc, and Daxic. "But I can't ask if they get killed." how annoying.
Xodyc got up and saw that Saix's attention was on Salix, Xishn, & Zhymarx. "Alright, let's see, he can go berserk, which doesn't help my chances of winning. Need some kind of tactic." he said to himself. He then threw his claymore at Saix, but it missed. Saix turned around and charged, throwing Xodyc around. After he was done, he turned his attention to Salix, Xishn, & Zhymarx again.
"It appears" Salix paused turning towards Saix "That we are being watched." Xishn and Zhymarx focused on Saix as well. And as suddenly as they fell from the ceiling, they glided towards Saix, leaving Zhymarx to strike Xaldin with his staff. Xaldin blocked him with his own spears. "I have to say, It's quite odd for you three to be fighting, or taking sides for that matter." He said as he pushed Zhymarx away with a gust of wind. Zhymarx floated gracefully odown to the ground. "You're right. But personally I'm just defending myself." He said. "I don't know about those two over there though."
"Wonderful." Saix sneered as he dashed towards them. He went after Salix first and gave him a huge slash, which Salix easily evaded. Xishn followed through by kicking Saix in the back. Saix quickly slashed around and narrowly cut Xishn's coat. "This is pretty stupid." Xishn said, countering with a low kick to his legs. Saix threw his claymore into the air and did a backflip. He caught the huge sword and slash frantically at Xishn, who countered his blows with his mirrors. "ten to one. Not to mention being easily decieved by that guy." He suddenly jumped away, and Salix came through with a deadly uppercut, which Saix easily blocked. "I don't think you're the real organization 13. There definitely not this stupid." Xishn finished.
Xishn suddenly felt as though someone had punched him squarely in the gut, although there wasn't anyone there. Salix turned to him, slightly alarmed and Saix walloped him across the hall. Zhymarx saw all this and rushed over to them, but then Xaldin and Saix surrounded him and he was suddenly thrown straight into the ceiling. A dull, echoing thud could be heard as slight bits of dust fell above their heads.
"Damn" thought Xishn as he was suddenly surrounded. A nice attack from those people back there would really help right about now. he thought.
DrBanxon watched the fight from safety. He knew this would happen.
Trouble. There is always trouble.
But once he saw the man from before being cornered by two organization members, he jumped out of his hiding spot and yelled, so that they would look his way and direct their attention away from the man. The plan worked and Xaldin and Saix looked back.
But once they saw Banxon, they quickly turned back to Xishn, thinking Banxon a weakling. They had not seen him defeat Lexeaus
He bolted forward and into Xaldin's back, knocking him into a wall.
"Hey, that was rude." DrBanxon said.
He took out his wand and shot at Saix, who was about to cut him in half.
Banxon missed and rolled away at the last second. He was sliced, but not fatally. Thinking his plan a mistake, he hit himself over then head with the butt-end of his wand and disappeared.
Saix and Xaldin looked at each other, confused. "Where did the punk go?" Saix asked Xaldin. He shrugged.
DrBanxon, being invisible, sneaked away as quietly as possible, and went back to his hiding space.
"I hope they don't kill him..."
"That was weird." Xishn said as Drbanxon suddenly disappeared. He threw his mirrors into the air and they suddenly formed a shield around him. "Hey, hey, hey!" Xishn yelled as he ran headlong into Saix who could not block the mirrors reflective attack. Xaldin however, floated behind him, and was ready to strike Xishn when the mirrors rounded towards him and countered his attacks as well. Saix got up only to be kicked back by Xishn, who spun around and hit Xaldin as well.
Salix sank down from the huge indent he made on the wall. He seems to have broken his back. "Damn it." He muttered as he felt a presence suddenly pass him by. He recognized it to be DrBanxon. "Running away...." He impulsively said. "That's annoying." He said as he got up and followed him.
Xodyc watched as Xishn fought Xaldin and Saix while Salix slid down. "I guess I'd better help, this is getting particularly annoying." he said to himself and charged into the melee, knocking Saix back. "You're really becoming quite bothersome." Saix said as he got up. "Oh well." Xodyc said and charged.
When DrBanxon saw someone following him, he knew he could no longer hide or run. "Fine." He whispered to himself.
Banxon hit himself with his wand again and became visible.
"Fine!" He repeated, more loudly and fierce.
He pointed his wand toward one of the Organization Members and yelled out a curse.
But nothing happened.
"Damn!" Banxon put his wand away, for it was useless at the time. He had used to much magical energy with his last trick and had to slowly regain it.
"What now, huh?" He said to the man who had followed him. "I can't do anything without my magic!"
