FM facepalms, knowing he was just begging for this to happen. Only for him to wonder what the heck she was talking about. "Um, what do you mean? All I saw was a beam of energy smack that bot away, not you." Turns out FM didn't hear that statement Kyoko made. Still, he decides to shrug his shoulders. "Oh well, if you want a fight though..."

"Charge 80%, Defensive runes online." White runes flashed into existence in the air around FM. Not wasting time, FM aims his left hands palm at Kyoko. "20% charge, Vacuum force." Firing off a shot, that would be all the magic FM would use for now. Not that the Hydra arm needed magic to deck you across the room.

Kyoko easily knocks the blast aside with her spear... despite it being invisible.

"Don't underestimate me, Mancer! I been kicking ass on Wraiths for years; most dumbasses lose their heads in the first couple of weeks!"

She slashes at Mancer with her spear... possibly creating a similar beam of energy if he's out of melee range.

I wouldn't be talking about that, Kyoko. Remember who trained you?

Remember who got their ass kicked 'cause they couldn't keep their eyes off Madoka for a couple more minutes?

FM raises his transformed arm to take the blow, commanding his runes to stay aside. The force does manage to slice through the initial layers of scale and flesh, but dispels before it can hit bone. "Well that certainly sounds tough." FM aims the hydra arm at Kyoko, the limb transforming into the Hydra. "Biomerge cannon, 100% charge mode." The cannon releases a powerful orb instead of a beam, which smashes through the air on its way to Kyoko.

"Say, what exactly are wraiths? Tell me and I guess I could tell you some stuff about my job. No, not the janitor one."

Whats with me and magical girls lately? I can't kick a can down a street without hitting one!

Kyoko leaps aside, hopefully using the shockwave from the miss for a Rocket Jump, and slashes her spear at FM in whip mode, creating another Sword Beam.

"Manifes-somethings of Humanity's despair or some shit, I don't really know. All I know is, I had to kick their asses to pay for my wish. Then some bad shit happened, and it turned out things were way more complicated then that. And then I found my way here."

Should have put this earlier, but: the theme music

"Oh shi-" FM uses the Biomerge cannon...to bite down on the beam in mid-air. "Okay, this is literally impossible. There is no way in the laws of physics that this is allowed. I BROKE PHYSICS!" Frightened, FM's cannon chomps down and...seems to absorb the energy. Which is then released as a dome of outward force, attempting to knock Kyoko out of melee range.

"Oh cool. I'm here cause I'm a necromancer, and a group of people from my world decided I was 'evil' enough to banish. By impaling me with spears of light. LOTS OF EM."

Kyoko was already out of melee range, but she's knocked back even further, and lands on her feet, coming to a skidding halt. She pauses for a moment, raising her spear.

"Yeah, well, magic tends to do that. I think that's why the rat-bastard liked it. I didn't really get it, but turned out a lot of this dumb game was about giving some law of physics he didn't like the bird."

"Ouch... that sucks. Sounds like a bunch of dicks to me. You're a nice guy, I'm just bored. I remember one time, this dumbass decided the same thing about our magic, and went around shooting up every other magi they could find..."

Hey, I was insane at the time! And I note you didn't tell him about the part where we were going to become Witches ourselves if I didn't, Sakura-san... Besides, it's not like you were an angel in your silly little turf wars...

Lalalalala, I can't hear you...

How very mature.

"...Then again, if the attack causes physical harm it would have to take on a solid state of matter for the briefest of moments. Combine that with the fact that the Biomerge cannon is a magical weapon to begin with..." FM shakes his head, refocusing on the fight and casual conversation. "Eh, I hope that guy got shoved into the ground. A few feet under if you know what I mean."

With that, FM aims the cannon at Kyoko again. "100% charge, Rapid Fire." For reasons nobody would ever figure out, several spiked bones burst out of the mouth of the cannon. In a configuration kinda similar to a gatling gun, though that would be sill-

-The spikes then begin spinning rapidly, before unleashing a rapid series of energy darts. Each weak on their own, but a big threat when about fifty are flying your way. "...I'll admit, I don't need to form the spikes. It's just for the hell of it."

"Eh, she had her excuse. She was alright until she went piss-nuts off the deep end. And she's more like a world above, if you know what I mean..."

Piss-nuts, Kyoko? Really?

Kyoko counters with Spin to Deflect Stuff, before charging at FM, spear poised for a powerful stab.

"Hell yeah! You get what it's about! Almost a shame to kill ya!"

"Hey, I like a fair fight. Flashy too, if possible." The jaw of the 'cannon' slams shut, making the whole head look kinda like a makeshift club. "HYDRA CRUSHER!" FM decides to counter the stab by punching it. With the giant hydra head. Only to send his defensive runes to the front of the cannon before impact. This would serve to absorb the force of Kyoko's spear by a bit...and allow the club to potentially overpower her if the attacks meet.

"You know, I did try to put up a fight when they cornered me. I mean, why wouldn't I? Thing is, I bet I could've escaped them if I just killed them all. Would save me a bunch of trouble, at least at the time."

The attacks meet - briefly - but Kyoko slips off to the side and slashes at FM with the whip-form of her spear.

FM bites back a pained scream as he feels the side of his stomach go numb. As his blood hits the ground, he lets out an angry scream and tries to smack Kyoko away with the cannon. "C-cause, I'd be proving the bastards right. I'd be proving to myself that they were right." The biomerge cannon reverts into FM's normal right arm, which quickly covers up the wound FM received. "I wouldn't let that happen. I couldn't."

"60% charge, Seal wound." The Necromancer winces as magically created flesh burns itself into his own. While it served as a way to prevent further blood loss, the damage was still hidden underneath. "A-Alright, how far do you really want this fight to go?"

"Yeah, I get that. I know a thing or two about becoming what people think you are, what you hate." -laughs bitterly-

She shouldered her spear.

"Damn, you're putty, but I guess it can't be helped. Tell you what, I've had my fun, ol' Maddy's probably already gonna give me hell for this - I don't even know why she hasn't already pulled me outta here, to be honest - and you're a nice guy. I'm happy to call it even."

"But if anything awesome's going down, give me a yell. I'll be there."

This would be a good time for the Hydra to put its two cents in, if you wanna keep going.

[DEVOUR...PREDATOR...]

"Yeah, why do you think I use defensive runes all the time? I'm not protected by magic at all times." FM keeps his hand on his wounded area. "50%, Flesh binding." Another wince, as magic sewed the muscle inside FM back together, albeit slowly. "Still, you're pretty tough. Mind telling me why you feel so...off though? It's almost like you're a...well...Lich or something."

[SUMMONER WEAK. SUMMONER MAGIC STRONG.]

Well, on one hand I want to continue. On the other is a bar of chocolate and the same answer. So sure. Oh and Kyoko could hear the Hydra speaking if you want.

Kyoko's eyes widen. "...wha-what the hell does that me? I-I don't know what you're talking about!"

-yes, you do. It's written all over your body language-

-defensive subject-change go!- "And what about that creepy-ass voice, eh? Let me guess - it's something that busts out if you use too much of its power, right? Then why'd you waste your magic fighting me?!"

-oh, like you'd have taken no for an answer before you realized you were Not So Different, Kyoko-

Unseen by anyone else, someone up there is smiling. Who would have thought that letting Kyoko go to that awful Arena place would lead to this? she thinks to herself.

"Well no offense, but I can sense your soul inside that gem, not your body. " Fm then realizes the Hydra is speaking. "Actually the Hydra relies on me for power. It doesn't burst free unless I let it out. Though...my magic is still dangerous. As in, capable of twisting my mind, body, spirit, and even the environment around me. Not even in an obvious way, in subtle ways that-"

FM then breaks out into a coughing fit, each cough sounding like he was a chain smoker or something. At the end, he spits out a chunk of something...black. "Hurt."

...Fuuuuuuuuck!

"D-don't spread that around?"

Holy shit I know how that is...

"Are you oka-"

Then hydra voice welcome distraction "...oh really? Well then, let's dance!" -Grin of Audacity as she twirls the spear around back into guard-

Damn straight I'm a predator! Top of the food chain, bitch, so bring it on!

Damn, how do I kick that thing's ass without hurting him-

And since when do I care?!

Yep, definitely smiling up there.

[GROOOOOAAAAAARGH!]

The Hydra bursts free from FM's shoulder, growling angrily at Kyoko. It then lunges at her, jaws open wide and toxic foam frothing at the corners of its mouth. "Round 2 start! Fight!" FM aims both palms at Kyoko, grinning as he fires off two vacuum forces. "40% charge."

"Don't worry, that nastiness stays in my lungs. Feels like evil corrosive cotton!"

Alright, I really need to get rid of this thing somehow.

Kyoko launches a couple of powerful slashes at the Hydra with her spear's whip form, before jumping aside in case it still managed to continue its attack, and batting aside the Vacuum Force attacks with the spear.

She tries to laugh at his making light of his situation, but it's definitely hollow.

Despite the slash wounds it receives, the Hydra continues its attack. When it realizes Kyoko passed by its attack, it quickly turns itself around to try and bite into her arm. At this time FM fires another pair of Vacuum forces her way. "40% Charge."

"Oh, by the way I go by FM. Whats your name miss...?"

Fun fact, being Banished removes all ties you have to your realm. This includes your original name.

Kyoko slashes back at the Hydra; it catches and bites down on her spear instead, snapping several of its chain-links. With her spear gone, she is blown backwards by the vacuum forces.

"Kyoko. Kyoko Sakura." she grits.

She stands back up, spinning around while waving a hand. Her hand burns a red trail into the air... which forms segments... yep, a new spear whip. She catches it in her hands and faces the Hydra-Mancer again.

"A pleasure to meet you Kyoko." The Hydra chooses to introduce itself by tossing the spear in its mouth Kyoko's way. Though with a handle and spearhead covered in toxic saliva. "My...annoying familiar here is a Hydra." FM aims a palm at Kyoko, choosing to fire Vacuum forces in a repeating cycle. "20%, 40%, 60%..." FM finishes this with a two handed burst. "100%!"

Kyoko slashes aside the tainted spearhead, several drips of acid burning into her Puella Magi outfit, but is backfooted to deal with the Vacuum Forces; she deflects them in turn, but each one knocks her back a little more, and the last one knocks her down, sending the spear bouncing out of her hands.

I am starting to really hate that attack...

Seeing Kyoko unarmed and knocked over, Hydra soars forward to try and tear into her stomach. [FEEEEEEEEEED!] As it flys forward, the neck connecting it to FM stretches visibly, magic the only thing forming more neck at this point. Before the Hydra could get into range, the neck snaps tight. With the Hydra only a few inches away from attempting to murder the magical girl.

"Hey get up, this round isn't over yet."

Iwonder if her soul is like that of her own will or not...

Kyoko rolls back to her feet, picking up her spear along the way-

"Damn straight! Now eat this!"

-and slashing it at the Hydra's head.

The spear slices through one of the Hydra's eyes. This causes it to jerk back, roaring with a mix of anger and pain. Only for it to point its head towards Kyoko. "Hydra Beam, 70% charge. Prepare yourself!" At first it looks like an ordinary beam of energy fires from the Hydra. Only for the beam to split into a swarm of smaller lasers that curve through the air until they fly towards Kyoko from all sides.
