Ghaleon vs Myria
superaielman "Welcome to Godlike, here's Ghaleon!" has become a DL tradition. You could field a pretty respectable army just based on the people that Ghaleon's stomped, maimed, and otherwise brutalized in his long reign of terror. That was the idea that bloomed in Edge's head when he saw the Godlike finals for the season. Who better to put a wrap on 50 seasons of needless fighting and brutality than two of the strongest DL fighters of all time? Sixty four wins. Eight godlike titles. Two all time greats. One Ninja. No chance. Assembling a team of those who had been wronged, crushed, or just flat out disliked Ghaleon was the easist thing in the world. Edge hired the best of the best for this, some of whom required up to 20 gil to agree to help kick Ghaleon's ass. The team was thus assembled. Covert ops: Citan, Celes, Edge Divinity: Lenneth Valkyrie, Yuri Volte Hyuga, TimeLord Mech assault: Claude, Chaz, Rolf Direct attack: Fou-Lu, Indalecio Edge's plan was simple in the extreme. Covert ops attacks from the roof and attempts to assassinate Ghaleon. Divinity would attack from the back, where Ghaleon had put his hired flunkies to guard his flanks.. Mech assault goes to blow up the Grindery just to annoy the hell out of Ghaleon, and Direct attack is as simple as it's name implies. --- The fragmentary records of TL's TimeRecord and his own visual and oral record of what happened are all that remain. Neither Ghaleon nor Myria had comments, and everyone else was in no shape to respond. Celes's vanish spell did the trick. Citan and Edge had slipped past the guards on the roof of the building undetected. A few well placed slices from Citan's sword opened a small, man sized hole in the roof of the arena .A The magical alarms were still down for another 30 seconds; Celes had unshockingly proven to be good at dealing with that type of trap. The trio slipped into the arena, still invisible and ready to make Ghaleon suffer. --- The covert ops went extremely well; at least at first. Direct attack went well also. "Limiter? Hahahahaha. What Limiter?" The horrors of facing the Astral Dragon in combat had so shook the Royce and Xenobia that they hadn't even noticed Indalecio. Earthquake in all it's unlimited glory split the front gate of the arena in half, and quickly sucked Ghaleon's girls into unexplored depths of earth. --- Divinity... well.. Selvaria Bles dropped the shattered corpse of Lenneth Valkyrie to the ground. She had the gall to call herself a Valkyrie? The bloodline isn't as strong on other worlds, even when masked with the power of a 'god'. The little mage had ran at the behest of the strange demon who was fighting. It made sense, what could the power of time do to someone wholly outside it's powers? The strange demon didn't waste any words on Selvaria, and kept on futilely attacking. --- It hadn't taken Fou-Lu and Indaleico long to dispatch the remaining guards. They ignored Ghaleon and Myria staring each other down, opting instead to go to the back and see what had been the source of all that screaming. They were both stunned that it was Yuri doing the screaming, or what was left of him. A girl in classical Valkyria armor stood tall, with her lance impaling Yuri's midsection. "More fodder? How cute." --- The covert team struck shortly after. The fight was truly something to behold. Citan literally ran circles around Ghaleon, slicing and prodding and showing his complete mastery of of the blade. Light damage is all the Guardian Angel could inflict, as Ghaleon's brutal physical attacks and Chaos Shield kept Citan on the defensive. Even with Celes runicing his magic for all she was worth and Edge tossing potions like crazy, it was clear that this would be an extremely tough fight for Citan to win. What broke the stalemate wasn't a critical hit from Ghaleon or a flowing series of blows from Citan, but the sound of boots walking across rubble. A tall man in drifter clothes stood, armed to the death and looking ready to fight. The cruelity in Ghaleon's smile was apparent to all. "You think I wouldn't have a Trump Card? It's amazing what you can acquire if you help out a friend of a friend."Gawn stepped forth from the shadows, and took aim at Celes. "Sorry, lady." The bullet hit Celes right in her stomach; the former Imperial General crumpled into a heap from the shot. "Yulie's counting on me." Runic slipped. Ghaleon laughed, and fired off a Fate Storm at Citan. --- Indalecio's desperate gamble to seal Silvaria and her powers within him had worked, but the resulting explosion of force had left him weak, once again confined to his normal, limited powers. A burst from Gawn's ARMs put a quick end to Indalecio. A second burst tore a hole in Fou-Lu's side. --- Edge and Fou-Lu had switched targets. The Dragon God was clashing with the magic emperor, injuries be damned. Edge was trying his best to outlast Gawn's bullets. One shot connecting would be the death of him. Edge threw a Fuma in the hopes that Gawn was out of ammo. Click. No bullets. --- The arena looked less like a fighting ground and more like a slaughterhouse. Every single last member of Edge's team was down with the exception of Fou-Lu, who was still somehow fighting against Ghaleon. Myria had not moved nor uttered a sound since the fighting started. All of Ghaleon's hired help was down, along with Royce and Xenobia. It was a bloody mess. Edge still stood on his feet, nursing a half dozen minor wounds from his fight with Gawn. --- "No more." The thump of a large body is heard, along with Ghaleon's mad laughter. --- Death and carnage lie everywhere, with Ghaleon at the center of the gruesome tempest. "I hope that was worth it. You're going to spend a long time regretting those actions. A long time. Before I kill you though... why did you go to such lengths to interfere? All that for nothing. Fool." A large purple beam formed in Ghaleon's hands. --- "Why? Oh, I don't know. It's been boring here, and what better way to claim the spotlight than ruin your chance at a sixth Godlike title? No matter the result here, this won't be remembered as yours or Myria's crowning moment. It'll be remembered as another another chapter of MY story." A loud boom interupts Edge, along with the -shockingly- loud sound of a Silver Trumpet. "I wouldn't say nothing happened. That was the grindery exploding. I had a few friends blow it up for the sole purpose of annoying the hell out of you." "OH yeah. Look over to Myria real fast." --- TL lay bleeding near Myria. He had lifted one of the still catonic Myria's claws and disembowled himself with it. "Just... wanted to be your friend, Myria.." --- "SHE HAS TIME MAGIC-" --- 'I just wanted a friend! You took him away from me!" Ghaleon: 25 UmbreonMessiah
Hugo vs Edgar Roni Figaro
SageAcrin A sound. Winning a championships. This was humiliating. Degrading. Ridiculous. Even if one loses, one should lose with dignity. --- "...huh. They both had the same idea?" Geddoe asked, as Hugo, mounted on Fubar, wielding the True Fire, True Water and True Lightning Runes, was completely vaporized. "I'm not sure why Edgar though amplifying the Noiseblaster was any more dignified a death, though." Locke replied obliquely. "Well...there is a sort of dignity in dying in a calamity that destroys half a stadium." Joe shrugged. "Man, scraping the boy up after that is going to be a chore." Hugo: 21
Nina vs Alhazad
SageAcrin Swimsuit contests. The ultimate horror. Yes, if done right, these simple and beautiful things can SCAR THE MINDS OF ALL THAT EXIST FOR ETERNITY. This was the best opportunity in ages. --- "...you talked the Profound Darkness out of something mentally scarring!?" Jade sputtered. "Eheheh. Yes." Kefka smirked. "...why?" "Not my style. That Nina's too flat." "..." Jade stared blankly. "...Okay, how?" "It turns out that, if you get Profound Darkness drunk enough, she's pretty easy to talk into stuff. Eheh." Kefka smirked. "..................you...got..." Jade slowly tried to comprehend this monumental insanity. "Oh, and if she runs in screaming something about sleeping with one of those Ryus, you never saw me." Kefka finished, as he walked off. Nina ultimately forfeited the match. Evidently she was too busy running from Profound Darkness as well. She was screaming something about Ryu's shared affections or something. You know, one of those demon women things. Nina: 14
Camus vs Slash
Joou Ranbu Camus against Slash. The jokes could write themselves all over. There could be an epic crossover doujin spawning for five yaoi conventions, furiously written six-hands by the terrifying Deis/Opera/Millenia triad. And don't get me wrong, it almost happened. But then, the girls made the terrifying mistake of peeking at Slash's room for "research" while he was asleep. The face under the helmet was... quite a monstrosity. Deis nearly passed out in disgust, and Opera still has nightmares about it. Millenia stopped an inch short from clawing his face out, which could've had disastrous results. A change of plans was absolute. The point is that they decided to kidnap Camus and Gaignun to a deserted island instead. As of now, they're furiously writing Suikoden Survivor Saga: The WAFFening, enjoying the sight of shirtless Camus and Gaignun in a tropical paradise. Meanwhile, Slash got handed a victory by default, blissfully unaware of the torment that could've been unleashed into the RPGDLverse. This year's yaoi convention is looking good, at least.
