Belcitane: -looking at Jacob with mock disappointment- And I thought for sure you were intelligent. But no matter. I can improvise if the actors won't follow their scripts.
-Belcitane grips Manager's face, a thumb under Manager's right eye.-
Belcitane: I suppose if I can't make the Owner bow, I'll settle for making the Manager blind.
-Ren swings his staff down in front of the others.-
Ren: Stand down. I'll do it.
Belcitane: Smart man! Now, if you'll be so kind as to kneel a few feet in front of the ark?
-Ren gives a nod to Jacob before slowly walk to the indicated location, materializing the White Knight's Ark in his hand as he walks.-

With that last hit Shade was expecting the Pelipper to go down without resistance, and thus is stunned with surprise to see it get up and fly. He can't help but watch as the four walls of air close in on Jiraiya.
"Jiraiya, you can't outmaneover those, tank it!"
<I am a true samurai, I shall not go down without a fight.>
Greninja calls upon his Protean ability, and becomes as still and as strong, as an icy glacier.
He is hit, and goes to half health.
"Its gonna take more than a flying move to get rid of Jiraiya!"
"You know the drill, Ice Beam!"
Jiriaya summons icy cold air once again, and kamehamehas ice torwards the flying pelican.
<I said Hammer Time! >
Unbeknownst to anybody this is currently reverbrating within the ninja frogs mind.

Decisions were made regrets were had.
-Ren kneels in the allotted place then bowing his head he holds up the White Knight's Ark.-
-Belcitane grins as twirls his mustache strutting towards Ren.-
Belcitane: Well well well... it seems that our metaphorical mousetrap succeeded in catching the Big Cheese.
-Ren groans internally at the pun.-
Belcitane: -standing over Ren- Now, as you suffer this defeat, I'd just like to say...
-As Belcitane's touches the White Knight's Ark a bright light shines from the the gauntlet Ren is holding.-
Belcitane: WHAT?!
-With a loud whooshing sound and a blast of magic, Belcitane and his men - along with Manager unfortunately - are blown back against the tall monolith.-
-Ren begins to Stand, grinning as he slides the Ark onto his left arm.-
Ren: Oh, didn't you know? No one who has yet to form a pact can touch an Ark while it's being held by a Pactmaker.
Belcitane: -struggling to de-tangle himself from his confused troops- A perfectly good monologue... RUINED! YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT!
Ren: -grinning as he readies his staff- NOW!
-Sorceress and Prima Donna rush forward to save Manager. While hopefully the others remember what to do.-

-The Moment Jacob touches the sheathed sword-like Ark, there is a brief flash of light.-
Renscape, ???, Past
-Jacob will find himself in a realm of pitch-blackness.--Two gleaming yellow eyes appear, they belong to a giant winged-humanoid silhouette.-
???: Oh, someone different this time? No matter. If you wish to have power you'll have to brave the my guardian first. Pazulsha! COME FORTH!
-The area around Jacob changes, he is now in a area with floating stone debris encircling the mouldering arena which he now stands. Across from Jacobs stands an androgynous figure in black, red, and bronze armor with a bird motif
◊ holding a sheathed katana at his side.-
Pazulsha: A warning to those who wish to claim power: If you do not possess power that overcomes mine, you shall be destroyed.
-Pazulsha draws his blade.-
Renscape, Ruins, Past
-The others' attacks deal heavy damage to the corrupted Stagehands that they were aimed at.--Sorceress and Prima Donna have yet to reach manager.-
-Jacob's body is standing inert at the pedestal, his hand on the ark.-
-Belcitane, infuriated at this development indicates three corrupted stagehands.-
Belcitane: Fine if that's how they want to play... YOU THREE! Do it!
-The three stagehands step forward, each pulling out a turquoise stone card carved with runes an a magic circle set in obsidian.-
Ren: -remembering Sorceress' projection earlier- Those cards! Everyone! We've got incoming!
The Corrupted Stagehands: -in unison- Adveni.
-In a powerful blast of black, red, and white magic, the three stagehands grow into three giant monsters. The first one is another green Malamar-based Gigas wielding a mace; the second Gigas is based on a red and black Mightyena with horns wielding a short staff; and the final Gigas is based on a blue and purple Sandslash wielding a short sword.
-
Belcitane: Now my servants... Destroy these pestiferous fools!
-The three monsters stand up to their full height and roar simultaneously.-

Shade eyes the incoming attack, and knows that this would take too much out of Greninja too soon. However, at the same time, he would get rid of a most annoying bird. He decides to take the risk.
"Greninja, tank it, and then use Ice Beam!"
Greninja goes down to one quarter health, before using ice beam once more.

-Mezzo is currently attempting to bury her sorrows in a mountain of ice cream-
Mezzo: So then the damn bird arrests me instead of her. Thank Arceus the cage was unlocked, or I don't know what I'd be doing.
Felis: <And why are you wasting your time telling us this instead of doing something about it?>
Mezzo: One, because I don't know where they are, and two, I have no clue how to fix it. -takes another bite-

Hey, I've got this new metal for you to try out!
Wait, that makes no sense. Let me explain: I found this metal that apparently blocks psychic powers! Like lead with radiation! Let me know if you want to help me test this out!
From: Deziree
Okay, uh, I kinda take back my previous offer, things are becoming a bit weird - the metal's getting BIGGER the more I test on it...

-Ren sees the Gigantes go for his friends and immediately crosses his left arm over his body.-Ren: Verto!
-in a flash of white, gold, and blue; Ren transforms into the White Knight, Ren steps forward while turning his body to cleave everything in a wide arc, aiming for the Gigantes legs. The attack drawing all the Gigantes' ire to him-
-Sorceress and Prima Donna follow up Ren's attack by aim an attack which rains down countless arrows from the heavens - the amount of arrows tripled by Prima Donna's abilities - and a storm of clouds and blades of darkness on the Right Leg of the green Malamar-Gigas, causing the magic armor on the Gigas's leg to shatter.
