:: Euthalia woke up. She looked up and began walked up to the cliff where she looked down. Euth then walked up to the crevice with the others. She nodded at Tobias' lord of the rings comment. She then looked up to see how much further it would be until they reached the castle. ::
 
:: Hanging easily onto the cliff a short way below the ledge, she shot Tobias a look, eyebrows raised as his lord of the rings comment. ::

This is NOT a movie.

:: Shrugging a little, she once more faded into the rocks. Not sure of what they were to expect, she kept all of her senses heightened to their fullest, heightening her reaction times considerably. For a moment, Sati paused at the edge of the crevice ::

"I'll check it out..."

:: Moving slowly and carefully, she lifted herself up onto the edge and began to move forward into the crevice ::
 
OOC: There appears to be a misunderstanding about my use of the word crevice. I am meaning a split in the mountain that leads into the mountain itself, not a drop off/cliff, type. Sorry about the confusion.

Using their powers to create some light, the group enters the crevice which becomes a full fledged tunnel. The pathway they are following is leading upwards towards the castle at the mountain's top. Eventually the tunnel levels out and the stone walls become more obviously carved and shaped.

Eventually they reach a large circlular "room" with only two exits, the one they are entering from and one directly across from it the door on it, blocking their view of what lies beyond it. Laying on the floor of the room is some sort of human skeleton. It is odd in that it is metalic and three long metal knives seem to be attatched to the back of its hands. As they approach the figure, all the lights they have created suddenly go out without warning, leaving them in pitch blackness.

As they scramble to find a source of light, they can hear a faint scratching sound and ahead of them a single match flares into life, lighting the end of a cigar. A voice echoes in the darkness, deep and rumbling.

"Hello, kiddies, come to play?"

The light in the room flares back into existance, blinding them for a moment. When the dazzle spots stop flashing in front of their eyes, they are able to see the speaker. It is a large purplish colored demon, standing over 9 feet tall. It's body seems to be made entirely of muscle, even above what a Titan would have. It's face has a long protruding lower jaw, jagged teeth, cruel eyes and a 6 inch horn in the middle of its forehead. The only clothing that it wears is a short leather vest. It smiles cruelly at them as it blows smoke rings in their direction.

"Don't even think you can make it to the door, the only way out of here is by getting past ol' Sy'm. And somehow I don't think you are gonna manage that any time soon"

Casually, S'ym walks towards the skeleton, which Sati recognizes as being adamantium and very like her own, and breaks off one of the knives, as if it were a dry branch.

"Eeeney meeney miney moe, who's gonna be the first to go?"

S'ym whirls and flings the blade at Sati, it is only her super speed that prevents her from taking the knife/claw in a heart shot. As it is, the blade cuts deeply into her shoulder and knocks her to the ground, bleeding. The others are stunned as they barely saw S'ym move to throw the blade. Whatever other talents he might have, the demon is very fast!
 
:: She stared at the skeleton, slightly surprised as she watched S'ym break off the adamantium claw. One - she knew of nothing and nobody who could damage adamantium like that. Two - she knew of only two people in possession of adamantium skeletons like that, and one of them was back in MoE ::

:: Barely with any warning whatsoever, she caught sight of the blade being hurled at her, and moved away. Still, his speed caught her completely off guard, something far greater than even her own, and the blade sliced deeply into her shoulder, slamming her to the ground with sheer force. Barely supressing a cry of pain and surprise, she let out a momentary gasp, supporting herself on one arm as she knocked the blade away. Her top was already starting to soak through with blood, and she winced, hoping that her metamorph regeneration power would heal the gash quickly, even if her healing talisman would not work ::

Astral Sati

:: Astral Sati appeared behind S'ym. She paused for a moment. She could have run for the door. But then again, without the rest of them with her, and leaving her real self behind, that may prove idiotic at best. Instead, she sent a triple whammy of psycho blasts directly into S'ym's mind, following up with a fourth and fifth blast for good measure, hoping that even if they didn't hugely affect him, the blasts would be able to slow him down for at least a short while, as the real Sati regained her footing and the rest of the group attacked ::
 
:: Rama seeing what just happened with wide eyes and knowing he is far too slow for this creature. He quickly manifests a psionic physical barrier as well as a telekinetic barrier around him. He then recites a spell that will hopefully work ::

"What's mine is yours, what's yours is mine.
Let our powers cross in time.
Switch my powers with Darkchilde now.
To defeat our foe in this battle."

:: Rama feels the powers of Darkchilde filling him waiting for one to be chosen. He selects the one that would hit this demon hard and fast. Her Eldricth Bolts The magick from them would hurt this demon far more than any of their natural powers. He unleashes five bolts at S'ym while holding him as still as Rama could with his TK ::

"There someone else strike him hard and fast!"
 
S'ym licks his lips as Sati removes the blade from her shoulder. The blood looks very tasty. As Astral Sati's psycho blasts hit him, he waves his hands around his head as if trying to swat a fly. Mental based attacks aren't proving to be much more than a general nuisance to the demon. He attempts to advance towards Sati's physical body when he runs into the telekinetic barriers that Rama has created, attempting to contain him.

S'ym attempts to continue walking forward when he is surprised by the eldritch magics that Rama is casting against him. The demon is quickly becoming angry. The bolts burn but don't do much more damage. He snarls at Rama as the mutant launches another barrage agaiinst the creature.

"Leetle girly man, you just moved yourself up on my list."

The demon places a hand against the barrier, getting its placement and pulls back a fist. S'ym's fist streaks forward to connect with the barrier, creating a backlash within Rama's mind. Rama screams in agony, clutching his head and falling to his knees, then vomiting on the ground just before collapsing.

S'ym chuckes as Rama crumbles. He looks around before picking his next victim out. He points at Maia with an enourmous finger.

"Come on honey, give Daddy some sugar."
 
*They entered the tunnle and finally emerged in a room, cautiously poking at a dead body in the middle of the floor. All of a sudden the lights flicked off and on, and S'ym appeared before them. She grew a little worried, only able to see his body, but not exact details. Hearing the crack as he broke off the claw, she tensed up, knowing they could not go back now, nor would they. She watched as the sword flew towards them and hit Sati, creating a hole in her shoulder. She grabbed Sati and pulled her back behind the others to get her out of the way while she regenerated and everyone else attacked. She watched as Rama attempted to hurt the demon with not much avail. All of a sudden he fell to the floor unconcious, two people down was not what they needed right now.*

"This wish is mine to cast,
a magic spell to make it last,
I close my eyes a little shiver,
this wish for me now please deliver."

*With her eyes closed for a split second, she wished and concentrated on healing Rama and waking him up. While the spell worked, she looked over at the skeleton and called out for it, shooting the hard adamantium body towards S'ym's heart.*
 
OOC: Amy, you have way too much going on at once. You have attempting to heal Rama, orbing the skeleton, tking S'ym causing spasms somehow and exploding his hands and trying to make sure he is unable to avoid your attacks. Way to much fora sight impaired person. Please repost and limit your self to no more than healing and 1 attack. Thanks.

Original Sati

:: Feeling the wound on her shoulder already start to heal, Sati watched, wincing as Rama fell. As Amarisy worked her healing spell on him, she took him by the shoulders, pulling him back behind the others so S'ym could not easily harm him farther ::

Astral Sati

:: With the slight flick of her wrist, the flying adamantium moved even faster, with greater force, Sati's telekinetic boost directing it towards S'ym with even greater force and speed; maybe not enough speed to match his, but hopefully she could do something about that ::

:: Her hand closing in almost a chokehold on the air, she seized control of the water molecules within S'ym's huge body, drawing them out as fast as her mind could consciously or subconciously process the thought and intent, which, of course, was fast. This served two purposes. It held him in place as the adamantium flew towards him... and, more useful, as the water drew out of him, it left his body dry, succeptible to attack, and much more easily broken. The water she had drawn out of him solidified into a ball, and, telekinetically directing it, she literally drowned him from the inside out... if not killing him, it should have at least bought Amarisy and her adamantium the chance to pierce his heart and kill him. While direct attacks on the outside of his body might have worked, hopefully weakening him from the inside would have as great an effect as possible ::
 
:: Maia's eyes wandered the room and she jumped back a little as the lights went out. Automatically, she knew "he" was coming. She watched Kurama trying to attack S'ym and watched Sati try one of her attacks as well, not knowing if they were going to be sucessful. She remembered what Ororo said about using your minds to try to conquer him, but they were mostly just trying to attack him individually - although Sati's attack was a very smart one. Her eyes widened with rage as he spoke to her ::

"You got it... "Big Daddy..."

:: She said in an almost mimicking tone. Knowing instantly that her Siren's Song wouldn't work on him, she clenched her fist, doubling the grip on Sati's telekinetic chokehold, figuring it would at least do twice as much damage. As Sati began to drain him of the amount of water in his body. With her free hand, she drew her Assassin's blade from her pack and flipped it in her hand, seeing if there was some poison left. There wasn't much she could do, but instead, she executed a couple of arials in the air, flipping above him as he suffered from Sati's attacks and sliced the blade across his throat just before landing on the ground again, with her back faced to him momentarily as she slipped the blade back into her pack. The poison should take it's effect ::
 
S'ym topples to the ground after the impact of the skeleton, not moving, not even breathing. Maia being the closest to him, checks him out to see if he is actually dead.

S'ym's hand snakes out to grab her with a speed that is at odds with his huge size. Rising to his knees, S'ym pulls Maia down close to him. His snake like tongue, darts out of his mouth and licks the side of Maia's face, leaving a trail of drool behind. Before Maia or any of the others can even react, the demon throws Maia away from him, across the room and into Tobias, where both of them fall into a tangled heap.

"There you go boy, get you some action there! You people really didn't think that I was THAT easy did you? Now where was I? Oh yes, killing you all."

S'ym rises to his full height and begins to advance across the room.
 
:: Tobias was thinking of ways to attack while all this going on. He was thinking along the lines of mental attacks like Ororo suggested...however he doesn't really specialise in those kind of attacks and before he could think of any attack which could at least help his fellow teamates, Maia suddenley comes flying through the air and into him. They fall into a heap on the floor. Tobias gets up with the wind taken out of him and he helps Maia to her feet as he turns to S'ym clutching his stomach. ::

"At least I can get action..."

:: Tobias unsheaths his chakram and it emmits a purple glow lighting up the whole room. He aims it at S'ym's neck and throws it. Should it miss S'ym it will simply circle back around again until it does hit him and when it does, poison is dislodged from the poison pouch hidden in the chakram. It flows along the grooves into S'ym's bloodstream, causing extreme but temporary breathing difficulties (3 posts). Tobias thought his efforts were ultimately going to be futile, but there is no harm in trying. Hopefully the breathing difficulties will help the others with their attacks. ::
 
Tobias' chakram slices through the air, it strikes S'ym but it doesn't cut his skin. The weapon riccochets off S'ym and strikes a wall before returning to Tobias' hand. Nothing they have done has had much impact on the demon.

Everyones' pack begins to emit a faint chime, as of metal against metal.
 
*She looked back over at Rama recovering and then watched as Maia was thrown across the room into Toby, who decided to go ahead and try his own attack. She picked up the piece of claw Sati had thrown on the floor and looked at S'ym, glamouring into him as she copied all his physical abilities, leaving only her red boots so everyone could tell between them. She TKed the adamantium body into the real S'ym back, and using his acute senses to make up for her own sight impairedness, she hurled the broken claw as best as possible into the middle of his neck, with his own incredible speed.*
 
:: Euthalia watched in horror as Sym was doing all this to her fellow group members. She had been silent for a while and so let out a very loud scream, hoping to affect Sym in atleast a little of the way. She also grabbed her dagger and then hurled it in the area that the thing's heart would be. She hopped her had one. In preperation she retracted her claws in case he came to attack her closely, hoping if he did, they would pierce the demon in some way. She was then distracted by a chime wondering what that was. ::
 
Each of them dodging S'ym in his or her own way, they manage to get a moment to dig in their packs. The chiming is coming from the links that Ororo left for them. The links seem to almost pull towards one another...
 
:: Rama slowly regains conciousness after the mental assault on him. He lifts himself up ever so slowly and then hears the chiming of metal coming from his pack. He opens his, and takes out his link, and feels it pulling in every which way to the other links. ::

"Guys pull out the links. We need them I believe to beat S'ym!"
 
:: As she slowly approached S'ym to see if he was vanquished, he reached out quickly and grabbed her, pulling her closer to him. She screeched in disgust as he licked her cheek and threw her violently at Tobias. As she fell on him, she half smiled at Toby as he helped her up before brushing off the dirt and rubble from her outfit. Her eyes widened slightly as she watched Amy and Toby attempt another attack on S'ym then whipped her body around to face Rama who suggested taking out the links in their packs. They were so desperate at this moment, anything was worth a try. Rumaging through her pack, she pulled out her link and turned to Rama ::

"Will it work!? What do we do?"
 
"Yes lets put them together on how the links wish to be put in the order they pull at one another! Maybe something big will happen"

:: He tried to rush the others to pull thier links out ::
 
"Ok, ok. . ."

:: She quickly took her link out of her pocket where it had been since they had gotten them. She noticed it seemed to pull to the other links. ::

"Do they connect by themselves or do we have to do it?"
