"I was well-rested a couple of days ago.", Ninten says as he's helped up, muttering a 'thanks' as well.

"I just really underestimated how hard it'd be to do what Botar does. Warping around all the time with PSI is super draining. It's without a doubt the hardest thing I've ever done. Checking up on several parts of the base multiple times a day, warping people out and in the base a lot... I don't think I can keep this up."

He grabs a bottle of water he has on him, wanting to drink some to restore some mental strength. He empties it in one go.

"Man, I gotta be more water than person at this point.", he says. "And I still gotta go back to Helryx in a bit to report your location. She's set out on that expedition she mentioned and I had to come find you to ask if now is a good time for you."

He then sees Torxetil and pauses.

"... and I think I'm going delusional. There's another Thor there.", he says while gesturing to him, which'll likely mean Thor and Loki will see him too now.


The Death Knight, hearing the commotion, turns to look and sees Fallen Ike's rampage nearby.

"Hrm..."

He brings forth his scythe.

"A warrior with bloodlust... it'll be a pleasure to kill him...", he says to himself before immediately charging into the fray.

"Bird!"

She said loudly as she tried to pat one of the crows while still looking at him

"How do you make allllll these birds appear?"

Thor and Loki shift their attention to Torxetil when Ninten points him out, the former greeting him with a wave while the latter opts for a good-natured smirk.

"Oh, you're not going delusional or hallucinating, he's simply a clone of me that was created by a ghastly spirit. I'll tell you the whole story of how he came into existence later," Thor quickly explains to Ninten. "Anyway, tell Helryx that I'm ready to investigate this anomaly."

Loki's smirk widens into a wry smile.

"Long time, no see, other brother. Have you come expecting a good old rousing round of brotherly bonding? Perhaps to warn us that Gorr now plans on actively hunting down both myself and Thor?" he inquires.

Fiddlesticks grumbles in impotent indignation.    "The crows are nothing more than an extension of me."   


Torxetil silently takes in the present speakers.

"Nothing so simple," he answers Loki. "I hoped to battle against my progenitor again, but the situation seems to indicate we cannot afford that luxury."


Fallen Ike turns to the Death Knight, snarling like a beast as the chaos energy overtakes him, enshrouding him in demonic purple flame.

To Challenge Ashnard

He throws Ragnell directly at the Death Knight, then dashes towards it, his form a blur, to catch it with an uppercut and finishing slam.

"... okay.", he says, too tired to question things right now. He takes another few breaths before opening a 4th-D Slip tear in space next to him.

"I'll go tell Helryx then. She should already be close to this location anyway.", he says, after which he goes through.


While it's unexpected, the Death Knight is not completely caught off guard by Fallen Ike's attack. He and his horse get hit by the initial uppercut, but he raises his scythe to parry the incoming slam from above. If successful, he'll then swing his scythe to throw Fallen!Ike into a nearby building, letting out a grunt.

She asked in pure shock, she had never seen a bird person before

Kurrikket is rebuffed by the headbutt parry, and grabbed by the 'shoulder'. He takes a page out of Goldlewis's book and tries to counter his follow-up headbutts with some of his own as well.

"Urgh!"

Long spikes jut out of his upper arm, attempting to puncture the hand holding him in place.

Once Ninten has departed, Thor shifts his gaze to Torxetil.

"You're right, Loki and I have a rather important matter to attend to right now. Although I wouldn't be opposed to a sparring match with you later," he says.

Loki shakes his head in mock disappointment, chuckling lightly.

"And here I was hoping for something a little more foreboding and ominous. Oh, well," he quips. "We already have plenty of that ominousness awaiting us on the horizon."

   "What? No! I am not a bird, I make them!"   

Fiddlesticks swings his scythe at the girl.    "Back! Back, crazy child!"   


Goldlewis's beefy bod will not be so easily beaten in a headbutting contest. Kurrikket will be feeling the pain moments after his counter-headbutt, but Goldlewis does let go as a result - and thus the spikes fail to reach his hand.

"Whoa, that was a close one."


"nnnnnh..."

Torxetil sits down and waits.

unless I say there's something I want to contribute feel free to ignore torxetil's presence until [SPOILERS] happens


Fallen Ike gets flung into Arcadia's Cauldron, an alchemy shop, absolutely destroying it. He lunges out of it, swinging Chaos Ragnell wildly, barely even bothering to directly target the Death Knight.

Malkuth simply says "I'm looking into any history I can find. It's part of the job." Malkuth then asks "I didn't know this place was called the arena, until recently, but I was guessing that something was off with this place, other than being tied to another world."

Malkuth looks to her coworkers, and turns to say "Allright, that's good enough for now. Take a break, everyone. You all have done much more than enough to deserve it!"

Malkuth then looks back to Bam, saying "Those are my fellow librarians from the floor of history. They help me clean up, sort things, and handle receptions of guests."

Upon closer inspection, malkuth and her co-workers all appear to be armed to some degree, primarily with objects which look like something between a sword and a baton.

... Ready? TATSUMAKI! Zoro spins and hurls a tornado at Klondike, plotting to trap him within. He then begins to run at him, and cover three of his swords in Haki, apparently preparing a big blow. His mere movement cause a ton of sand to burst up!

Goldlewis may be strong and American, but Kurrikket has directed this species for millions of years to be optimal head-butters. Especially once he sacrificed their cranial spikes for more evolution points. This doesn't not completely nullify the pain, however, and he skids back from their clash.

Kurrikket's arms - all four of them - are now decked out in spines. He huffs.

"You are... anomalously strong, human."

He enters a complex stance in which spines cover the openings between his limbs, probably derived from an unknown martial art. The upper-left arm holds his staff behind him.


"Beep bap! I don't see how that will help with that, but fine!"

He waddles out of the RadioShack.


"Yeah, this place can be weird, heh. The Arena - there's two sides to it. This side resembles Skyrim, but it's an empty copy. Only other drop-ins are here."

Bam seems mildly interested in Malkuth's talk about her role. He isn't armed, but honestly, he doesn't need it.

"It has... strange laws? The way the world works is malleable to the people in it. When I first showed up I was out of my element because I fight by manipulating an element called shinsu, and this place is filled with air instead. But I reached the point where the air here was basically worked as shinsu for me."

The three girls follow behind, whispering amongst themselves.

When they get out of the Radio Shack, the main one waves the other three back, her hand glowing an infernal red as she made a cutting motion in the air, a red rift opening up in the air, as the other two walked into it.

After about a minute, they walked back out, hauling a set of speakers with them.

A little while later, Helryx can be seen approaching from within the bushes, some people following behind her. Those people are Lesovikk, Matoro and Krika.

"I was surprised to hear you were waiting here already. What would you have done if we hadn't set out for this mission today?", Helryx asks once she sees Thor and Loki.

Once the group of four reaches the beach properly, they also see Torxetil.

"Who is that?", Lesovikk asks.


The Death Knight easily evades Fallen Ike's unfocused attacks by backing off.

"All power, no skill... you won't last long...", he says before aiming at Fallen Ike with his hand before unleashing Thoron, attacking with a huge, devastating lightning magic attack.

"eep!"

She backed away from the man, a little scared now as her voice got a little shaky

"I j-just wanted to see the birds"

Just as she said that, a commanding voice could be heard

"Are we gonna have a problem?!"

A utterly huge man walked right up to fiddlesticks from behind, pushing past the crows

He was in a pink shirt, and brown pants

"Why are you attacking a poor defenseless child?!"

Fiddlesticks growls monstrously.    "Hrrrr... I'm done entertaining your shenanigans."   

He gets into a battle stance.    "She was bothering me incessantly and refused to leave me alone. If that's not enough for you, prepare to die."   


Klondike stands firm against the tornado, awaiting Zoro's attack.


Goldlewis slams his coffin down and opens it. The glowy blue Energy Being arm inside reaches out with an uppercut, aiming to smash Kurrikket into the air and through the streets of Windhelm. If it succeeds, Goldlewis will pursue him through his flight with an air combo of punches and kicks.


Fallen Ike powers through the lightning blast, screaming as he leaps at the Death Knight with a brutal overhead cleave.

Seeing as Torxetil didn't appear to be in a conversational mood, the Sons of Odin shift their respective gazes to the newly-arrived Helryx and her team.

"The same as usual, I imagine. Provided, of course, nothing else urgent suddenly came up," Thor replies, offering the group a smile as he brings out his axe, Stormbringer.

Loki smiles his usual smile when Lesovikk asks about Torxetil.

"Oh, he's a clone of Thor who came to be as a result of something he and Neuff were involved with. It's a very long story," he explains.

Chef was having none of that, he had a job to do

"You put animals in front of a kid and don't expect them to be interested?!"

His voice stayed commanding no matter what, and he didn't even seem the slightest frightened by fiddlesticks threats

"I see.", Helryx says to both before approaching the sea. She doesn't go into the sea, though stands right at the border of where the waves stop. She points into the distance.

"It's around that general area that activity had been picked up. Thor, Loki, clone, how well can you handle freezing cold water and holding your breath for long periods of time?"

"We're going to investigate underwater first.", Lesovikk explains to them. "Helryx can use a Kanohi Kaukau, and I have gear to let me stay underwater without issue."

After having said that, he gestures to the tube sticking through his armor and entering a part of his mask.

"It's the reason I was chosen to help on this mission in the first place."

"We are here as back-up. In case we need to fight or warn headquarters.", Matoro says.


The Death Knight blocks with his scythe once more, though this time the impact of the attack makes the Death Knight's horse stagger, preventing the Death Knight from doing an immediate follow-up attack.

"Agh..."

Well, that's a surprise. Kurrikket is knocked into the air, though he catches himself with his wings in flight.

"Tch!"

Unfortunately, this just gives his opponent the second he needs to easily catch up. The Emperor is battered around by Goldlewis for a bit until he snaps.

"SKREEEEE!"

He unleashes a Raging Roar to try and stun Goldlewis before trying to go ham with his spikes and spines to rip him something nasty.


"Beep? Okay?"

He flicks his mic on and points it at the main Cerberus.

Beep badoop skdii. Ske doo. I'm not gonna hold back, ya dig? This is all or nothing."

"Ahhh! Short people are so very cute when they're determined!"

The main Cerberus flicks on her mic, just a little bit of feedback coming through the speaker, as she smiles, looking at the BF and nodding along.

"I know just the song!"

Through the speaker, a song could be heard playing, as all three Cerberi started to bob their heads.

"Win or lose, lets all have fun!"
