The amazing and unexpected flight of the Behemoth was coming to an end and Kel was right under where one of its hooves were going to land and what was he doing to prevent being flattened into a pancake. Nothing. The sheer disbelief of what he’d just witness had him frozen right where he stood. Time seemed to stretch longer as the behemoth continued it’s decent. Even though Kel still hadn’t moved an inch, that didn’t stop his brain and his inner less apathetic selves from trying to get his body to move. “Move you idiot! Are you trying to get squashed?” Everything that they said was along those lines, but it made nary of a difference. Kel’s body, more importantly his legs, seemed to be disconnected from his brain. Indeed things started to look grim for him. Least till a ray of hope followed by an overabundance of cherry blossoms appeared before him. The cherry blossoms had succeeded in snapping Kel out of the disbelief induced trance he was in just in time to see just how close he was to being flattened. To help put it into perspective, the very tip of his hair was barely touching the foot of the Behemoth. It was then that he noticed why the foot hadn’t squished him yet. Beuce, with assistance from the purple cat that he vaguely remembered seeing, had single handedly stopped the behemoth’s foot, a feat that neither of them had the defense to. If strength was needed then it would be a lot easier to gauge his chances off of whether or not Karina got crushed if she tried something like that. Anyway Beuce then proceeded to use a barrier surge attack on the heartless before motioning for Kel to strike. He then took a moment to crack knuckles before summoning his keyblade. Then he took a position similar to form a samurai took before performing their signature quick draw slash (don’t quote me on the name) and closed his eyes. In addition to the standard Zantetsuken cherry blossom, snow seemed to fall from the sky out of nowhere. Seeing as how there wasn’t any yukionna’s around, especially not a purple haired one, maybe the power of scenery/dramatic effect of Zantetsuken had summoned the snow from the very same place that the cherry blossoms seemed to fall. That or there was a heartless with dandruff issues standing above them. Whatever the reason was, there was snow and cherry blossoms falling from the sky. As the Behemoth continued to stumble from Beuce’s attacks, Kel waited for the right moment to strike, imitating a blind samurai, by waiting till it lowered its guard. Then the Behemoth managed to stabilize slightly on its feet, but overall it was still stumbling to actually move. This was probably as good as any chance that he was going to get and he took it. In the blink of an eye Kel vanished and reappeared on the other side of the Behemoth with his keyblade out in from of him. At first it seemed like his attack had done nothing but move him on the other side of the heartless, but at the moment when Kel had his keyblade vanish in the usual light that it appeared in, the behemoth roared out in pain as a visible slash across its side could be seen. Unfortunately that wasn’t enough to actually end the massive heartless, but it did damage it which was good enough for him. Next Kel quickly cast fira towards the heartless, hitting where it had just been injured. Of course this would sit well with the behemoth that had trouble dealing with just one wielder, now there were two of them for it to face, both of which ready to face it.

Spoiler Frost Fire? Also, did you mean Ruby and Yang instead of Yang and Weiss?
During the time that Kel had spent riding, fighting and narrowing dodging the Behemoth that he was facing, he hadn’t really paid much attention to anyone on or anything else that was going on. He had hoped by doing so that the heartless wouldn’t be able to surprise him, but the whole knocking him into a bookshelf incident proved otherwise. So while the Behemoth was distracted with the collapsed bookshelf on top of it, Kel had finally noticed the purple hue that the room had taken. What the heck had happened while he was fighting? He’d just barely managed to see the purple cat that Beuce had summoned vanish into the air or so he thought, for not long after that Beuce had gone through a few changes in appearance. Putting two and two together, he figured that whatever the purple cat was the cause of this purple hue and what had just happened to Beuce. Fortunately the Behemoth was still stuck trying in the books, which was quite surprising actually. Which mean that he could focus on some of the smaller enemies once again, so taking advantage of this, Kel fired off a few Fira spells towards a group of Yellow Operas that were floating around. The two fireballs had managed to take out a total of 6 heartless, while the remaining 5 flew in away from the explosion and started to fly towards Kel. At first he wasn’t worried about them or what they could do, but when he heard the sounds of thunder forming above his head, naturally he was going to look up to see what was the cause. When he saw the storm cloud, the sounds had gotten louder and louder. To the point where a few lightning bolts were clearly visible to him. Of course he dodged out of the way of the storm cloud that was above his head, but the thing was that that wasn’t the only storm that was called forth above his head. In fact for each step away he took, another one appeared above his head. These Yellow Opera’s definitely wanted him to get zapped, that much was for certain. While Kel was playing his game of dodge lightning, the Behemoth had finally gotten itself free from the books (again taking way longer than it probably should have). The heartless took a moment to shake off the remaining books off of its body before turning around. Kel’s actions against the heartless had only further enraged it, to the point where it was seeing red, as oppose to the usual color that heartless saw. The behemoth gave out a mighty bellow before going to charge like a bull at Kel. Meanwhile Kel had managed to take down the remaining 5 yellow operas and was finally glad that he could take a breather at least til he heard the thundering footsteps fast approaching him. Kel wasted no time turning around to see the behemoth coming right for him again, though this time he had ample time to dodge and that is what he did. Then the behemoth quickly rounded the corner, which of course destroyed another bookshelf, and ran towards him again. They went through the cycle of dodging and chasing for quite some time before Kel had decided to trick the heartless like he did last time. So he went ahead and lured the behemoth back toward the central area of the hall of records, specifically speaking were everyone else at the north side were fighting at, and waited til the heartless came right around the corner. It was then that Kel again used blizzard to freeze up the floor to trip up the heartless, but the Behemoth did something completely unexpected. It freaking jumped over the frozen ground and flew in the air like bloody free wily cat! Seriously, where did that come from? To make matters worse, the Behemoth was going to land directly on Kel if he didn’t get out of the way. OOC: Total Words: 666 EXP: 30 Total: 138 Defeated: 11 Yellow Rhapsody
It was true that had had narrowly escaped being crushed, what he didn’t avoid was the return of the behemoth. During the time that Kel took to get back on his feet, the Behemoth had managed to use that to its advantaged and strike him with its tusk. The sudden and surprise impact had sent Kel crashing into a bookshelf where, once he’d gotten his barring on what had just happened, found that his arm holding his keyblade had gone through the shelf and gotten stuck, which lead some of the books to fall on top of his as well. Sure he could have just de summoned his keyblade and re summoned it later, that would solve the hard part of this situation, but he didn’t exactly have the time to do that for the Behemoth was again quickly charging at him. “This is bad.” That was when a thought popped into his head. Maybe one of his summons could help in his this endeavors. Fairy Godmother was out and he’d prefer not to end up having to call on Marahute and as for Robin Hood, for some reason he felt disconnected to the fox thief ever since they left the Castle of Dreams. So that left Mushu to hopefully him in this situation. “Mushu, Burn him down!” The small red dragon appeared next to Kel in a puff of smoke before firing its best fireball towards the Behemoth. In the time span that it took for the fireball to reach the Behemoth, a small flame of hope started to burn within Kel with the hopes that his plan would work. However much like the fireball, which was shrugged off by the behemoth, Kel’s inner hope flame was extinguished as well. Now he was stuck in a bookshelf with a heartless with full intentions on killing him and he was running out of options seeing as how Mushu left not to long after his fireball had failed. Then something that wasn’t the heartless hit him. It was another idea and this one might not only work, but save his butt. Once he’d gotten his another arm out from under the book, he aimed it at the ground and casted Blizzard on the ground right before the Behemoths foot had made contact. Then the mighty Behemoth slipped on the ice and slide on its side into the bookcase, fortunately missing Kel. That impact had given Kel just what he needed to get out of the bookcase and back onto the ground. At this point he definitely didn’t want to make the same mistake twice, he turned to face the still downed heartless and pushed the rest of the bookshelf that it had crashed into on top of it. Would this be enough to finish it off, probably not. Would it make it even madder, definitely. But that didn’t matter to Kel at all right now, what he was more concerned with was how he was going to deal with the Behemoth when it got back on its feet. Mushu had proven to not be as helpful as he had hope, which to be fair, in a battle between a little flame versus big heartless, the big heartless generally wins, Fairy godmother definitely wouldn’t help too much since all she would do was to bring Mushu back, and finally he was avoiding Marahute cause, he’d rather not get nearly crushed or impaled to death for Marahute to appear. “Robin hood would definitely be helpful here.” Arrows to slow down its movement and he could increase the damage that Kel did to it, why did he have to feel like they weren’t connected now of all times.

Once Kel had turned his body so that he was fully facing the Behemoth, he found that it wasn't the giant two legged monster he thought it was. It was instead a giant four legged creature. This actually was quite a good change in pace, for now he could beat this this like you'd beat any animal with four legs and tusk. By crashing it into everything. So when the heartless charged at Kel, he dodged out of the way and used his keyblade to hook onto the tusk, which then sent him into the air, landing perfectly on the Behemoths back. The Behemoth didn't take took kindly to this and proceeded to try to buck Kel off him like a bull would a rider, but what Kel did to prevent being thrown off was to stab his keyblade into the heartiness's back and use that as both an anchor and a steering wheel. "Alright, mush Behemoth." Now using the behemoth as his personal weapon of mass destruction, Kel had it run over about 5 Green Rhapsodies and another shadow cause why not. When in doubt or have extra BP, kill a shadow they useless compared to the other mass of stronger and deadlier heartless around them. That was when the Behemoth had crashed into a nearby bookcase, causing Kel to be knocked off the Behemoth. Landing on the ground with a low thud, he got back on his feet only to see that the Behemoth was charging right towards him. Fortunately for the first time in who know how long, dodge roll activated and he dodged the attack. "Easy there, I needed someway to take care of your buddies." The Behemoth clearly didn't care for that as it tried to attack him again, this time just barely missing him. What was really enraging the Behemoth was how Kel humiliated it in front of its fellow Behemoths. Despite the fact that heartless's couldn't talk let alone laugh, internally the massive heartless could feel the mocking laughter of not only the other behemoths, but also the other heartless on the ground. It had to restore its honor somehow and the one way it could do this was to grind Kel into a paste. Kel on the other hand had no idea what the behemoth was thinking, but after seeing Karina varying faces of pissed off to recently murder, he could tell that the Behemoth was pretty pissed at Kel. "Least its not the damn jaguar from Deep Jungle." Oh the bad memories, should he ever go back there he will find that jaguar, skin it, and wear its pelt as a trophy. That was exactly how deep his hatred for that cat went. But he wasn't facing a cat right now, he was facing a Behemoth that might as well be a bull staring at a completely red, and I mean clothing, not blood, Kel. He shrugged, his previous actions definitely wouldn't work this time, so he simply the one thing that he could think to do, dodge, attack, and pray. So when the behemoth charged for a third time, instead of dodging Kel boldly and carefully rolled under the Behemoth and grabbed on to its leg. This was probably a very bad idea, but Kel did not care at this point. He was more preoccupied with striking the underbelly of the heartless while making sure that he didn't fall and get crushed. While that would please the behemoth, Kel on the other hand definitely wouldn't like that. He managed to get a few blows in the heartless before carefully letting go of the leg right before the heartless lifted its leg up in attempted to crush him.

Once the first group of heartless were taken care of, Kel turned his attention to a shadow that seemed to be moving around on the ground. Seeing this as a chance to strike, he plunged his keyblade into the floor, only to find that the shadow had split into two around his keyblade and reformed behind him. "Since when could they do that?" Not once has he ever seen a shadow heartless do that before. What really sucked was the fact that the same thing happened for the next 4 shadows, which was starting to annoy Kel. "Why don't we reform and fight like a man er shadow!" He exclaimed, before he noticed that his own shadow had gotten longer. When Kel turned around to see why his shadow had extended, the culprit was a mass legion of the shadows that had slipped past him. "Oh, okay? That's ... new." He was definitely dumbstruck at what he was looking at before him. Now despite the fact that they were bigger and gain a small amount of intimidation, they were just an unbalanced mass of heartless shadows who stumbled and fell right onto Kel's keyblade, causing them all to burst this time leaving Kel dumbfounded at what had just occurred before him. It kinda made since that they wouldn't be able to handle a giant form like that seeing as how they were used to being small and extremely weak, but if doing that made them easier to kill, then their would be no complaints from him. In fact this now left him opened to target the next heartless on his kill list. The Large Body approaching him was definitely the fattest heartless he's seen, but he didn't think that would be an issue at all. In fact the first thing that Kel did was to the heartless was to charge and attack it, only to have his blow bounce off the belly of the heartless. Surprised but not deterred, Kel tried again and again and again, each time getting the exact same result each time. It wasn't before long that Kel was furiously beating at the heartless, trying to break past the defense of fat it had. Minutes had passed and Kel had gotten tired of doing the same thing over and over again. So he stuck his keyblade in the ground to catch his breath. That was about when the large body finally decided to do something and slide towards Kel on its stomach, which, despite being tired, lead to wielder to quickly draw his keyblade in a samurai like strike to counter the heartless, which surprisingly knocked it on its back like a turtle. "Hmm." Kel pondered, setting up his keyblade in a golf like fashion. "FORE!!!!" Kel had put all of his frustration into the swing and sent the heartless flying conveniently towards the behemoth, which did nothing to the behemoth but took care of the Large Body. Great, that's one less fat heartless to worry about and an entire army of heartless to face. "Note to self, strike the fat one either from behind or get it on its back." Cause there was no way that he was going to go through that again. That was waaaaay to much work just to find out that knocking them on their back would be more effective than pretty much tenderizing them. While Kel attempted to rest again, a loud a giant footstep nearby him. Turns out the Behemoth wasn't all that fond of Kel's hole in one of its face. "No rest for the weary I guess." Hefting his keyblade on his back, the wielder looked at the behemoth right in its eyes and ran right for it. OOC: Words: 619 EXP: 30 Defeated: 5 Shadows, 1 Large Body
As Kel listened in to everything that was said some things were understood, some weren't and some thing just confused/surprised the hell out of him. Namely everything Beuce had done to get Karina back in the library. It was definitely a bold tactic that probably wouldn't end well for him later. On the bright side there was a army of heartless for her to blow off some steam on, something Karina desperately needed. That was when Beuce had the idea of guarding the various entrance of the library, each one of them were being swarmed by heartless of various size, strengths and intimidation levels. One the bright size Nequa had already finished her business here so she was no where near the library meaning his assume bad luck when she was around wouldn't be a factor here, at least that's what he hoped. Still the Behemoths could still kick his ass if he pulled a rage induced Karina impression and blindly charged at them. So yeah, definitely wasn't going to do that. So heading towards the north entrance, the first thing Kel did was to take out the first shadow that had attempted to attack him. Something that weak definitely wasn't worth using one of the few spells he knew. The seven soldiers on the other hand were a different matter, so he then cast gravity which fortunately clumped them all together, which made it a lot easier for him to burn them all away with fira. The mass legion of heartless burst into a cloud of smoke and dark mist, which soon vanished from the area. That probably took out a small chunk of the overall mass, but combined with the ones that the others have defeated then hopefully the overall ones defeated would be fairly high. If not then they have a whole lot to go around, despite a certain person trying to take out as many as he could by himself. This was a perfect chance for Kel to get stronger in hopefully something other than strength. Not that he could use more strength, but he'd rather have enough health, defense and speed to survive most attacks. OOC: Words: 362 EXP: 18 Defeated Heartless: 1 Shadow, 7 Soldiers

A small opening between the chin and neck, if only there was an easier way to get them to lift their head up so that he would have a clean shot. But seeing as how nothing came to mind, Damion just changed the Desert Eagle in his hand into a sniper rifle and started to formulate a plan. The odds of him taking out both of them in one shot was extremely low so there was no point in him even attempting to do that, but what he could do was trick the golem into revealing its very own weakness. The one problem was that if this failed, then he could end up hurt if not worse. Still nothing ventured, nothing gained so Damion ran towards the golem as it prepared to attack him. As he did this, the golem again raised its fist again to attack. While the speed of its attack was sightly faster than last time, Damion was still able to dodge it. Then while the golems head was closer to the ground, he made his way right under where the weakness was, aimed the sniper rifle towards the gem and pulled the trigger. The bullet that flew from the barrel had enough force behind it to shatter the gem upon impact. With the power source destroyed, the golem began to shake as it was defeat, prompting Damion to move out from under it before he'd got crushed.
I'll unequip Trip Around the Sun for EXP Writer
There's only so much I can do if this is suppose to be my last post before the time skip Grim was actually partially shocked that he'd actually managed to trick the hatted man. In fact he decided to keep the lie going for a bit longer to see just what these guys were up too. "Correct, normally one doesn't scream in public for no reason so I decided to see what was going on." He had to be carefully about what he said now, this time he wasn't trying to test anything out and didn't want to be caught lying this early. As the man turned away the word revenge had caught his interest. "Revenge against who exactly?" He toked a few steps behind the hatted man to ensure that his question would get answered. Spoiler: Extra details Deep in the woodland there was a wounded body of a medium size deer. Its legs were injured to the point where it couldn't run anymore and thus was resting on a nearby tree. There was a trail of blood stretching from where the deer currently was to where it sat now. Odds were that the poor creature had just barely escaped an encounter with a fierce predator and it could only hope that it wouldn't get found. Too bad hope only gets you so far. Breaking the tense silence surrounding the area, a rustling in a nearby bush quickly grabbed the attention of the deer. The source of the rustling was a wolf that wore a hungry expression on its face. This particular wolf was the main reason the deer was injured, proven by the blood on its fang as its bared them towards the wounded deer. There was nowhere for it to go and nothing that it could do. The deer was destined to be nothing more than a meal to the wolf that quickly lunged towards it to finish what it had started. In the trees above the now eating wolf was another creature, this one was the human Dominic. He'd watched the scene take place before him, waiting for the perfect chance to strike. With each passing second the wolf grew closer to being finished with its recent prey and Dominic took out one of his twin blades from its sheath in anticipation. The wolf had taken one final bite of its prey before turning to find someplace to rest and it was at that instant that Dominic allow himself to fall from the tree and land right on the wolf, its blade piercing the creatures head. Unlike the wolf who killed for food, Dominic killed for the sheer thrill of it. Which is why all the time that he's spent in the woods might been the best time of his life. Each day killing something different using various tactics. For each successful one he moved on to another prey and so on and so on. now this was the day that he was going to head back into the city. He'd honed his skills will enough to handle almost anything that decided to cross him. With a devious smirk on his face he removed the blade from the wolf's skull and quickly sheathed it before walking away from the two corpses. If they didn't decompose first, then some scavenger would be pretty lucky. His walk had lead him to the lustor district where he casually walked. Despite his past reputation, he wasn't worried all that much about being recognized by anyone. Compared to how he looked back then, there were little similarities between the two versions of himself. His walk had eventually lead him to see some strange figure approaching some girl. Normally Dominic wouldn't really care about what was going on before him, but seeing as how the girl was the same girl from the forest, not to mention his prey, of course he was going to start caring. Naturally he was going to intervene, but he had to be careful about it. His opponent this time wasn't someone he could just walk up to, shank with a hidden blade, and walk away like nothing happened. If he could, then he would cept with less stealth and more bloody murder. No for this one the actual sane part of his mind was needed, which was find so long as his true intentions were hidden, the means to get to his goal didn't matter in the slightest. So he drew one of his two twin blades and pointed them towards the sickle welding man. "Not so fast." Dominic said, internally sighing at what was the best thing that he could think to say.
When the Golems had made their approach towards them, Damion went ahead and changed the P90 in his hands to a regular pistol. Mobility would be very useful in this fight. The golem too a few more steps towards him before raising its fist in the air, which was his que to start moving. While the fist was still in the air, Damion fired off a few bullets at it. The purpose was to see just how strong they were to his bullets. Depending on the answer would decided what gun he would use. His bullets had done a fair amount of damage to their skin, but not enough to truly satisfy him. The golems fist had slammed down on the ground, missing him. It was at this point that Damion took advantage of this and hopped on the arm and used it as a way to get closer towards the golems head. Along the way he changed his pistol into Desert Eagle. Unlike his regular gun, the bullets in this one had a bit more power too them. So they would be perfect for an up close and personal shot. Though the ammo in them was limited so he couldn't afford to waste any shots. Stopping on the giants shoulder, he aimed the gun right for its head when out of the corner of his eye, he saw Poke fall to the ground. Fortunately the cube didn't hit the ground and Poke seemed to be fine. The downside was in the moment he was distracted, he'd lost his window of opportunity and was shaken off the golem's body, landing right on his back. "Ow, that hurt." There was no major damage done from the fall so he was indeed lucky. "I've been better, got any ideas on how to approach this?"
Things had gotten pretty dull as they waited for everyone to draw straws. Luna had approach with the same intentions as everyone else. The boredom form waiting had finally wore down at his attention span and Kel's eyes started to wonder around the training grounds. At first he failed to notice that Kuma had gone missing from the area, which was quite impressive considering his size. That was just when he had hear Kuma's voice in the distance, which lead to to see Kuma, some masked person, who he could assume was allied with Nequa and someone else. While Kel had no idea who this masked person was aside from that certainty that he was bad new, Karina on the other hand seemed to have him too on her list of people to hate and charged right at him. Her efforts were quickly stopped by an invisible wall that was clearly formed to keep them from assisting in the fight. It definitely sucked since from what he could tell, this enemy didn't seem magic base so he would have a better chance against him. Better not guaranteeing anything though. To make things worse a heartless appeared to join the fray, which somehow lead Karina into fleeing first. Quite unexpected of her, but so was what she said while she was pounding on the invisible wall. Kel took one quick glance towards the fleeing Karina and the girl who'd apparently was here as well and the heartless still approaching them. "I guess this must be time for a strategic retreat." He turned turned towards the exit and ran out of the Training Grounds.
Yeah, your getting Rainbow Neos, unless they make a 3 headed Rainbow Dragon for whatever reason.
Darn my procrastination, but here's yours @Kross123 Star-vader, Freeze Ray Dragon On a separate note the aura that you all selected can evolve into a different form (think digimon or pokemon) should you choose to do so. IN other words, if you want an evolved form post here and I'll find one.
As the man bandaged up his hand, the annoyance had pulled out a knife that he was apparently keeping on his person the whole time. That would definitely be a problem seeing as how willing he was to cut someone with it, but how exactly would the ones responsible for this react. They'd made it pretty clear that they had little intentions of harming them here, so this may provide some more interest in all this. With the injuries on his hand taken care of, Damion made his way back to the table and took a seat next to the clump of bloody napkins. Least this way it would be easier for him to hide the fact that he'd gotten hurt while he was out. He may have hated lying to his sister and mother, but he'd rather lie to them than have them worry about him. Damion was more than capable of handling himself if things got ruff. The less people worried about him the more focused and unfortunately reckless he could be. His gaze was mainly at the table when he heard someone speak to him. At first only his eyes moved to see who it was, in the event that said person were to bother him with something stupid. Seeing that it was Tasha, he looked at her and the cup that she was offering. "Thanks." He then took the cup and looked to see what was in it. It definitely smelled familiar, so he then decided to give it a little sip. The flavorful liquid touched his tongue as the small sip turned into a quick gulp. Once he'd finished, he placed the cup back on the table and wiped away the reaming droplets from his lips. It had been quite some time since he's had this kind of soda, so it was quite the refresher that they had it for him to drink.
As Grim listened to what the hatted man had to say, his attention briefly turned towards the other made that he was with. There was quite the aura about him, in fact if he was a normal person he would probably be more affected by it than he was at the moment. This one was definitely someone to be caution around. Once the man had finished speaking, Grim turned his attention back to him before giving him a response. "Easy there cowboy, I could care less about the bird that crapped on your so called favorite hat, but seeing as you have an exact replica of said hat, this must've happened to you before." Grim started. He was curious as to what he meant by he would know if he was lying, so he decided to test it. "Me, I'm just a traveling musician and I happened to stumbled across your outburst earlier. it was quite the spectacle so I decided to approach you." There was a small but sneaking smirk on his face as he told his reason. "Now then, which part of what I said was a lie. If you always know then this should be easy for you." If he actually could accurate tell which part was a lie, then would tell the truth, for he would have his answer. After looking at the last person out of the group who'd just shown up, Kasen turned his attention to the girl who was healing Cierra. That was quite the ability to have and despite the screams coming from the wounded girl, it seemed to have worked. At that moment Orpheus had commanded his zombies to seize the humans, an act that was somewhat surprising but not drastically so. The healer had served her purpose in this so it made sense for something like to to happen. The zombies did as they were commanded and Orpheus had approached them all. Not much was done to them, aside from the white haired guy, who'd gotten smack across the face.
When Damion had heard that they would be working in pair to defeat the golems, he started to get worried. His worries had nothing to do with who his partner would be, but how well they would work together. He already wasn't the most sociable person so that might cause problems, despite how versatile his power actually was. Damion sighed. Since there was no way out of this, he would just have to deal with it. When Kendrick and Tal went first to take the trail, he made sure to pay close attention to anything that would be useful to him later on during his attempt. He paid attention to how they attacked and using the information that was said his brain started to think of options and weapon choices that would be good to use. Though his thoughts were put to a halt as his name was called, which promoted his to walk into the red ring along side his partner. So that's what you can do, good. Since that was the case, their powers might actually work well together if they themselves worked together. "Um, I can change my gun into any other one." To give a visual aid, he took out his own weapon and briefly closed his eyes. Moments later the small hand gun had turned into a P90. "Though I have to have actually touched the weapon I want to form as well as keep a clear image of in in my head." It wasn't like he could form a tank from thin air or anything like that.
During the time spent waiting for the final decision on who would take the mark of mastery, things had gotten pretty interesting. First Beuce had attempted to trade spots with Cat, even saying that he needed all 8 of them. One of them he could guess as to why he would need it, but the other 7 were a complete mystery. Heck two of them would be good enough for Kel. Though his attempts at persuasion were for naught. Meanwhile whatever had happened between Karina and Eon had only gotten worse as Karina proceeded to back hand the boy, which if not for the current mood of the situation, he'd make a joke off that. More things between the two of them were said, none of which helping anything so he pretty much toned out the few remaining bits of what they were saying. Finally in an effort Beuce had puled out some straws for them to draw. Considering how bad his luck could be at certains times and how Karina had already taken one, all Kel could do was to take the one he thought was good and hoped that Karina's rash decision had given him a spot.
As the two Kel's participated in the ritual, the beam of light that pierced them had them both thinking different think regarding it. When their hearts had appeared before them. One Kel wasn't expecting to ever see it again while the other one look at it with a small hint of amazement in his eyes. The following bright light blinded the two of them. Eventually that light finally died down and the two of them were standing on separate platforms. On the station belonging to Kel Seigend the faces of his closest friends and a few family members were within the glass under his feet. A feeling of nostalgia flew over him considering what he went through to keep them all alive. There were many trials that were placed before him, but he fought his ways through them all. Learning new things to keep himself strong. Anyway he took his gaze off of the glass belong his feet to look at the three doors before him. One was marked by a sword, another by a shield and finally one by a staff. It was clear that he would have to go through one of these doors in order to move on, but which one would he choose. This Kel could easily find a reason to go through each door before him,but he decided to go through the one with a sword on it. It was his was on indulging on how he used to be. He opened the door and was quite surprised as to where he fond himself standing. It the Sealing ground back on Solucia. He's only been here twice, the first time was before he met everyone at the Land of Departure and the second time was the fix his mistakes. If he was here, then that could only mean one thing. The ground started to shake beneath him as a mass of darkness started to form at the center of the ground. Kel knew exactly what this meant. He would be fighting his strongest foe, not Karina, the embodiment of rage and terror, again not Karina. The converging darkness soon explodidng and shot into the, merging together and formed the Alterian. The might beast gave out a mighty bellow of rage, strong enough to make most warriors quake in fear. Not Kel however, he just smirked as he stared at the foe. His heart seemed to remember exactly just how powerful and intimidating it as. That didn't matter to him, Kel's beaten this monster before and he damn sure could do it again. Summoning his keyblade, he slowly started walking towards the giant. The Alterian finally noticed Kel and sent its fist flying towards the young wielder, signaling the start of their fight. Much like before the fight was hard fought for Kel, even though he was much stronger that he was the first time he'd faced the Alterian. In fact he was actually forced to use his own personal aura and he was still worn out from the fight. "Your still a pain in the ass." He said between heavy breath as the mass of darkness seemingly disappeared and the armor it formed fell to the ground and dissolved into nothingness. Kel's fight here was done, or that's what he thought. Yes the armor and some of the darkness had vanished, but Kel failed to notice that some of it had split apart form the main body, forming a smaller mass of darkness. By the time Kel had noticed it, there was already another humanoid figure. He definitely didn't remember it being able to do this when he fought it in the past and he wouldn't have much time to figure this out for the new form of the Alterian had charged right towards him. (I'll post as the other Kel later Edit: Due to getting a better idea, I've extended this fight)
