(Continuing with Saitonia, Loot, BatPug, and ThreaT at an alleyway of the village.) Saitonia: *feels a raindrop hit his shoulder as he looks to the others*. "I'll meet y'all at the castle, don't wait up for me." Loot Crate: "wait, huh?! You're leaving us?" Saitonia: *pulls his hoodie over his head from his cloak*. "Don't worry, I won't be gone for long." Loot Crate: "...." (Saitonia quickly exits out from the group in search of his target.) TheThreaT: *places his smoke hand on Loot's shoulder*. "You'll be fine with us, heheh." BatPug: *turns on his night vision as the rain begins to pour down harder*. "Let's focus on getting to the castle, we can worry about Sai later." Loot Crate: *blocking his eyes from the rain as he stares up at the sky*. "Okay, let's hurry up then." ---------------------------------------------------------- (Saitonia jumps across the rooftops of the village with quick haste, hoping to reach his target before the feeling in his stomach gets worse.) Saitonia: *touching the amulet in his pocket*. "I know it's him, he'll pay....." (After 15 minutes pass and Sai using his advanced tracking experience, he arrives at the entrance gate to the massive village, locating Jay and Stark.) Saitonia: *jumps down from a rooftop right in front of Jay*. "...." Jay: *draws his sword from his hip in surprise of seeing Sai*. "Woah, Sai?" Saitonia: *staring at Stark*. "...." Stark: *turns around to face Sai*. "Heeeyyy! I knew you would find me! I've been waiting for our reunion." Jay: *looks at Stark*. "You know Saitonia?" Stark: *smirks*. "Of course I do. I killed all of his friends on the dome of Heuco Mundo. Such a pleasure it was, watching them try so hard to hit me." Saitonia: *draws his new sword that he got from the armory building and points it at Stark*. "Thanks to Armityle and Death, I got a second chance." Stark: *chuckles as he places his palm on his face*. "You thought that was Armityle and Death keeping you alive all this time? All the times you've died, you thought it was Death?" Saitonia: "Death always has some thing to do with my story! It's just how it goes." Stark: "tell me Sai, who saved you during your hollow rampage against Malum? Who do you think brought you and BatPug back from the in between? Who do you think gave you the ability to revive someone from the grave at the start of your journey? I've been in control, all this time, not Death." Saitonia: *blinks multiple times as he processes the information*. "That's, not true...." Stark: *looks to Jay with a heavy sigh*. "It seems our friendship has come to a close. You're going to die now." Jay: *guards himself with his sword in a defensive stance*. "I think not, this sword is from Reign-Beaux, you can't possibly compare to his strength." Stark: *places his hand on one of his guns at his waist*. "Beaux is a janitor that cleans up messes, sure he is stronger than most and also chose to deny the position of King after Caius but, that's all he is. You'll see." Saitonia: *stomps his foot on the ground*. "Why have you kept me alive! Why won't you let me die?!" Stark: *teleports in front of Sai and places his hand on his chest*. "Because, it's fun and well, you have the highest chance of killing me." (Stark propels Sai backwards into the dirt after touching his chest with insane amounts of force, causing the wind to be knocked out of him.) Saitonia: *trying to catch his breath*. ".. Shit..." (Jay swings at Stark with his sword, consuming all the matter into the sword where he stands. Before Jay's sword was able to activate it's affect, Stark had disappeared from Jay's sight in a blur.) Stark: *kicks Jay's leg out from behind and knocks him into the ground*. "Oh Jay, if only had potential for greatness." Jay: *rolls back and up to his feet*. "Everyone has potential for strength, they just have to want it enough." Stark: *laughs at Jay's words*. "Optimism!" (Stark quickly draws one of his guns and points it at Jay, charging up the barrel with a purple light.) Stark: "Optimism disgusts me....." (As Stark shoots out a huge beam of purple energy from his gun, Saitonia manages to jump in between and block the beam with his swords special ability of a barrier.) Stark: *blows off the smoke from his guns barrel*. "Not bad, but can It handle two guns?!" (Stark draws his second gun from his waist and shoots out 2 beams towards Sai and Jay with increased power. Saitonia pushes Jay out of the beam radius and activates his barrier again which is easily broken, scorching his body.) Saitonia: *coughs excessively from pain*. "Fùck! There's gotta be something that can stop him....." Stark: *appears next to Sai in a blur*. "Your kind of reckless you know that? Charging in to fight me after knowing I killed like all of your friends in one battle." Saitonia: "heh, sometimes I don't think things through..." (Stark places one of his guns barrels up to Sai's head and points the other towards Jay.) Stark: "you've disappointed me for the last time Sai, so why don't I just give you a choice and make things fun? Your life, or your friends." Saitonia: *messing with the amulet in his pocket*. "Kill me or kill Jay?" Jay: "that's a dumb choice!" (Saitonia quickly grabs his sword and knocks Stark's gun away from his head.) Stark: *jumps back and withdraws his guns to his hips*. "Heh, not gonna go down like that eh?" (Saitonia pulls out the amulet from his pocket and pops it open, revealing a yellow light from the inside.) Stark: *notices the amulet*. "A relic from Hueco Mundo huh? Curious how you acquired that." (Saitonia looks at the amulet and over to Jay, then back to the amulet. Having to make a choice that could affect everything.) CHOICE FOR EVERYONE: 1: Have Sai use the amulet. 2: Have Jay use the amulet. 3: Don't use it, losing the fight. Edit: it's 5-5 on choices 1 and 3.
