Season 52, Week 2
Asellus
(SaGa Frontier)
 
As the emogoth vamp...er...Mystic, yeah, that's the ticket...queen of Fascinaturu, Asellus has a special interest in this match. Fresh from a championship in Middle and an upgrade to Heavy, Kresnik appears to be a new man. A better man. A stronger man. A less emo man. But Asellus will show him that emo is his true nature and that he cannot deny it by forcing him to suffer through a brutal loss in his debut in Heavy. With plenty of versatility thanks to both her human and mystic blood, Asellus has plenty of tools to do just this. Whether by walling him with magic mirrors or overwhelming him with Mystic Change, it is inevitable that Asellus will beat Kresnik's true nature back into him.

Hard work and unbreakable conviction have paid off for Kresnik, sending him to Heavy at last. Unfortunately for him, he has a tough foe ahead. Unlike most magic-users, Asellus is also proficient with the sword, and is more than capable of getting around his defensive game. But all is not lost for the Brionac commander. While Asellus may be attacking his far more vulnerable defensive stat, Adrenaline Rush will give him the speed to keep going, and his nigh-unlimited resources for healing guarantee that if it comes down to it, the half-mystic will run out of steam before he goes down, ensuring another victory. His conviction will not let him stray from the path toward victory, regardless of the odds!

"Edge? No. I said we would NEVER bring that up again."

"But..."

"Do you want to sleep on the couch?"

"..But..."

"Until Sten gets a date with Piastol?"

"...Sigh. I'll be good. Can we at least watch the fight?"

"Sure. I can't see that causing any harm."

The arena was packed to the gills. Asellus's charms- both mystic and otherwise- were legendary. The DL knew that something had happened to royally piss off Rydia the last time Asellus got in the arena (but not what!), and thustly the crowd started buzzing as soon as Edge and Rydia made their entery into the arena.

It -exploded- when Asellus walked into the arena and ignored Kresnik. The half mystic instead went over towards Rydia and said something to her at a whisper. While the crowd couldn't hear a whisper, -everyone- could see Asellus's more than friendly smile and her hands on Rydia's face. The summoner had turned beet red, and Edge sat there, jaw hanging open, for once without any kind of rebuttal. Asellus then leaned in and..

The crowd roared.


---

Rydia's face was beet red, her body posture screamed morification. "H... how DARE SHE. EDDDDDDGGGGGE!"


Edge picked his jaw up off the floor and gathered himself. The prince knew that if he didn't do something and fast to fix this, he would likely end up with an extremely initmate relationship with Bahamut and an extremely distant one with Rydia. Edge reached into his pocket and pulled out a small, heavily engraved scroll that was etched with mystic runes.

---

Time Magic could freeze time, slow it down, and speed it up. But reversing time for any notable length was beyond even the powers of the TimeLord. However, a small scroll blessed with the full powers of a mystic noble could reverse time for 30 seconds. While it can't alter the memories of those who are directly effected by the spell (A flaw making it near useless in combat), it is a long enough piece of time to correct one mistake.

Asellus walked over to Edge and Rydia. Mmm, she did so love the brash prince and his lovely lady. Perhaps a good luck kiss would be just the thing to give her an edge over Kresnik. She blinked. Hadn't she already gone up to Rydia?

More to the point, why was Edge leaping out of his seat and charging her?

---

A hail of Fumas shredded Asellus before she could so much as move, DQing Kresnik. The crowd gasped in shock at this- why would Edge attack Asellus?

---

Edge limped into his room and shut the door wearily behind him. Boy, you wouldn't think a crowd would take it's bisexual crazy half mystic women that seriously. At least Rydia will speak to him within the next decade or so, not that it'll help with the pain from the beatings.
