Enter the Arena... As Your Avatar (v4)!

The Magi split, all leaping off in a different direction, but are still sent flying by the strike.

Hathor singles Sayaka out and rockets after her, intent on picking off the Puella magi one-by-one.

Well, I suppose that fight is a little unfair. That, and the blonde one is quite good-looking.(lifts himself up from sitting position)

(then unceremoniously launches a barrage of spheres of pure dark at Hathor from behind)

Sayaka gathers herself into a ball, a blue magic seal with a vaguely musical motif forming beneath her. She straightens in a violent motion and kicks off it, leaping sky-high into a blue streak.

Meanwhile, Kyoko leaps like a red missile, spearhead first, at Hathor from one side.

A (normal) Tiro Finale-level blast is fired at Hathor from the other side.

As he surveys the landscape, he suddenly sees a barrage of knives launch towards Hathor. Looking to his right, he sees the aggressor. He doesn't look familiar, but who knows? Once this battle's over, he could be a good opponent to fight.

Hathor spins around and slices the spheres in half with her left arm, which has turned into a sword.

Dark magic signature detected. Hathor will show you the light of Metatron.

And she does so by firing a storm of lasers at Nega from the wings on her ankles... Only for her to suddenly disappear when the Puella Magi tried their triple attack on her.

Light of Metatron, huh?(dashes forward to avoid the blasts) I'm gonna pass. I like my veil of darkness.(said veil forms into a shape of a vaguely wolf-like head that lashes out at Hathor in an attempt to bite its head off)

(well, would lash if she was around) ...(sighs, dismissing the wolf head) Of course, never the one to hold still.

Kyoko skids to a halt in midair, and drops to the ground. "Oh come on, this is really horseshit now."

It's a long way down, but Sayaka lands safely on her feet.

Mami too comes down, and they reform their formation.

Hathor reappears not too far away from her previous location and attacks everyone by focusing Metatron energy in her wings, forming a blindingly bright orb of energy above her head before it fires an absolutely massive storm of non-homing energy beams at the general direction of the magic-users.

Hm. Is it?

(glances at them three) No, you're not humans either. It seems that this place is ridiculing me with every second. That said, I salute your battle prowess and your fairness.(bows gracefully)

(then swiftly turns around to erect a sphere of despair and darkness in front of himself, shielding himself from rays that would go his way)

He had to double take when Nega created the wolf apparition.

Interesting... This is certainly new Magic. Wondering if it will match up to some pure old Black Magic.

All three Puella Magi, with little else to call upon, summon their auras around themselves, but they are quickly torn down by the Beam Spam, and stray shots strike everywhere across their bodies... including their Soul Gems.

In unison, three jewels crack, three flashes of pink lightning fall, and the Magi vanish.

I don't know why I bothered wasting both our time by putting Magi against Hathor.

Next time, I'll do it right, but that next time probably won't be tomorrow.

At least they were able to force Hathor to go all-out. That's something at least.

edited 30th Oct '14 4:34:29 AM by questor

Aww. :/ Hoping to see you soon, preferably on weekend then.

...tch. (keeps his own shield up to not get torn apart)

I'll play tomorrow, but I wanna put my best foot forward when I do Hathor vs. (well, both of you probably know... though you might be guessing wrong, there are two possibilities... the pure one is true.) Can't do that with an assignment hanging over my head.

The Laser rain stops the moment the Puella Magi have been neutralized, Hathor then turns the sun-bright orb into a high-powered beam straight towards Nega.

So, this Hathor is the winner then. Good for him.

Opening his tome, revealing a plethora of spells, he starts small, sending a nice Thundara straight to Hathor.

edited 30th Oct '14 4:42:12 AM by BlackMageAnolis

Since Hathor was busy with her particle beam, the lightning bolt came as a shock to her and scrambles her systems; abruptly stopping her beam and stunning her for a few moments as her Metatron-based CPU reestablishes control.

edited 30th Oct '14 4:40:24 AM by questor

You want the light?(sidesteps the beam, or rather throws himself wildly to the side to avoid it) I'll show you the light alright!(making use of Black Mage's timed attack Nega charges in, getting a hold of three scalpels at once and chucking them at Hathor)

(mid-air they become foot-long blades of pure dark, intent on piercing her shoulders and leg and, preferably, pin her to the wall)

Didn't know Hathor was a girl. Who names their daughter Hathor?!

The spell connects. Lovely. As Hathor falls down to the ground, the Mage readies another spell, this time a more powerful Thundaga, which launches into the sky to be activated by him a little later when he feels the time is right. Unsheathing his knife, he runs up and prepares to engage.

Hathor manages to recover just in time and swats the Dark Lances away with her wings, cracking and damaging them slightly further before firing a small volley of homing lasers from her hand at Black Mage and then zooming up to a higher altitude.

You tin heads and your flawed program logic. Playing gods, assuming superiority. You're nothing but man's creations, creations that can be well destroyed and dismantled.

(snaps fingers, summoning a tall pillar of dark energies which proceeds to fire smaller beams all over Hathor)

Lasers, eh? Shame he's not a White Mage; he have to rely on dodging them for this one. Flinging himself between the multitude of beams, a single one connected, downing him. However, lookin up, he sees Hathor flying into the sky, he realizes. And then, with all his energy, he unleashes the spell planted there moments ago, sending a flurry of electricity throughout the sky and down to the ground.

Hathor, Egyptian Goddess of love

It is you who is foolish, Metatron is the only true magic; your darkness is nothing more than a trick compared to Metatron.

Hathor counters the beam spam with her own, firing a storm of lasers from her wings at the dark pillar and its shots. Since Hathor wasn't quite as busy with the beam spam as she was with her large beam, she evades the lightning bolt before spraying Black Mage's position with lasers and then going into evasive maneuvers.

edited 30th Oct '14 4:54:57 AM by questor

You have seen nothing yet, tin head.(smirks, his smile getting rather wider than a norm allows) Nothing at all.(the dark pillar is seemingly overpowered by Hathor's spam, but then begins changing its shape, twisting and growing... limbs? All of this is accompanied with rather infernal howling)

(soon it stands tall again, but now it has long, noodly arms and a parody of a head, barely formed orb with multiple golden ones all over it)

(the creature of despair roars a roar so powerful that it would surely drove an ordinary man insane right away as it attempts to slam its hand into Hathor)
