More haze appears and cures Zed's PK brainshock. He looks at Ninten angrily.

He visibly shakes. Was it fear, or was it just the corruption getting to him?

"I'm not going back to that guy! I am not a prisoner!"

He points the bat at Loki and fires PK Beam Β. This attack wasn't too strong. He must have a plan if he's using a low level attack on a God.

Zed pulls out his hatchet and the haze forms around it. He throws it and if it hits Ninten, psychic shocks are emitted from it.

Loki sighs and nonchalantly deflects the beam with his scepter. "And there you go proving my point about you acting like a madman," he says. "Nunire's not trying to capture you, he's trying to help you. Please tell me that you haven't gone completely insane and at least make an effort at thinking straight."

A glider passes by in the sky, and its biomechanical driver notices the child on the ground.

"Hehehe... looks like I'm in luck..."

Flint notices the boulder and sends a wave of darkness from his blade to prevent it from hitting Loki.

I don't think Knowless would mind at all, especially considering he thought of joining my spin off. Besides, it is common practice just look at room, really though if he sees this I bet he will say weather or not he finds it wrong

A little tidbit that is often overlooked, is that knowless' concerns are highly valid, if a thread gets too much plot in it the mods will automatically move it to the RP boards when they find out, again this is what happened to both WAOA and Room which started as forum games, and I am 100% unsure if Arena would survive the transition, although I do know that it has crossed the point where the mods would draw the line... assuming Daltar ever found out

Any way intro time

-A rather large suit of armor takes cover behind some debris a little distance from the battlefield, and sets her gun down on it as a brace-

-Inside the suit, Imca glances at the threat tracker on the HUD to make sure that it is calibrated correctly, then down to the ammunition counter for the drum on the suits back-

-Finding every thing within acceptable parameters, she awaits her opportunity to strike-

"So because I don't want to be recaptured I'm the insane one here? Give me a break!"

The hatchet hits Ninten and psychic shocks do emit, but Ninten casts PK Magnet to absorb the psychic shocks and heal himself.

"I was captured for some time, and I've trained my mind in secret! I have discovered even more psychic powers than before!" (Only possible due to Ignika removing his potential lock) "Let me show you what I mean!"

He slams his bat on the ground and a cyclone of psychic powers flies up all around the area. Those hit by it will experience a stronger PK Brainshock. (PK Brain Cyclone, aims for everyone present by default. Easily avoided though)

Due to the way his aura shakes and sputters with dark energy, it's clear that it's the corruption influencing Ninten to do this. And even though he had just casted PK Brain Cyclone, he already begins to charge up for another attack.

They'll be confused by Brain Cyclone, so all I have to do is cast PK Darkness to make myself hard to find. If they can't concentrate, they won't see me at all, and I can flee! Brilliant.

So it's not just preference, it's also because of the mods? I didn't know that. Now I'll do my best even more to limit the amount of story to just small pieces, no longer a large plot, to prevent the Arena from moving to those boards.

Flint runs away to dodge the cyclone, but then sends two Infernal Strike waves. One towards the cyclone and one towards Ninten.

Vultraz decides to wait before making his move. If Ninten is in grave danger and he saves him, that should motivate him to comply more easily.

Zed jumps over the PK brain cyclone and lands in front of Ninten, taking back his hatchet. He begins to poke Ninten.

Lapis creates a dome of magical earth, shielding himself from PK Brainstorm

Still there Ichigo?

Loki blocks PK Brainstorm with a magical shield, then notices what looks like the Green Goblin on his glider and fires a scepter blast at Voltraz before firing another blast at Ninten.

Only tangentially related, but I just found this badass video about Porky.

Vultraz does a barrel roll to avoid the blast, still not approaching the battlefield any closer and not making a move against any of the fighters.

Lapis's dome easily protects him, as Cyclone isn't meant to pass through shields.

Flint has the right idea, as the Infernal Strike headed for the cyclone actually does weaken it. It even gives Flint a little more power to use magical attacks. Seems as if psychic and magic are close enough to each other to count as fuel for one another.

Ninten uses PK Shield to block the other though, and that one fails to absorb anything. So psychic shields still outclass absorbing attacks. The shield also blocks Loki's attack. And then he gets poked.

"...What are you- stop that!"

Angered, he casts PK Darkness to try and make himself harder to find as the area darkens.

I think I've seen that one a few years back. It's been a long time since I've seen it though.

Loki turns to Flint. "Deal with the Green Goblin over there. I get the feeling that he's not here to help things," he says as he points out Voltraz to the knight. "Why Osborn is here, I have no idea," he muses to himself. He then manages to spot Ninten out of the corner of his eye and attempts to whack the boy upside the head with his scepter.

Zed fumbles around in the darkness for a little bit, and then he gets an idea. He pulls out a torch, lights it, and then looks around.

"If you don't trust me as Nunire's ally then trust me as Phoenix's friend!" Flint yells to the darkness where Ninten is hiding, hoping it would slow him down if he heard those words.

Flint then listens to Loki and charges towards Vultraz. He sends a wave of darkness towards him from his sword.

Not expecting anyone to notice him, he gets surprised and is hit by the spike. However, thanks to his increased defenses, he's not all that wounded. His eyes widen though.

Phoenix? Why does that name sound... familiar to me...

Due to him being distracted, he gets whacked by Loki. He backs down again.

No time to think about stuff now. I have to focus!

His eyes nearly close for a second as his aura darkens.

W-why is it so hard to focus...

Zed's torch manages to dispell some of PK Darkness, making Ninten mostly visible again. Angered, he puts his hands on the ground and releases a psychic wave. Anyone hit will no longer be able to shield himself with any kind of magic or psychic powers. (PK Shield Off. Yes, that actually exists)

In the surrounding darkness from Ninten's move, Flint's attack is hard to see, which leads to Vultraz being hit dead-on. Back in the day, a direct hit like this would have brought him down in an instant - but these days, his glider is sadly equipped with a Shield device, which mitigates the damage and deflects part of the slash back at Flint. Having found himself in danger, Vultraz decides to stop waiting and searches for Ninten, activating a headlight on his glider to see better through the darkness.
