:: As the hellhouse phased though her leg, Persephone screamed through clenched teeth, dropping to the ground on one knee. Her leg felt like it was on fire and she couldn't move it. Without a moment to spare, a second hellhouse lunged for her one more, this time aiming for her chest. Lifting her hands in front of her, a stream of sub zero frost slammed into the hellhound, coating the creatures body in an icy blanket. The hellhound screamed in pain before dropping from the air and shattering on the floor. ::

:: Gritting her teeth in pain, soon the pain began to fade as her leg began to glow a bright shade of green. Looking to Morningstar, Persephone stood. ::

"Thank you."
 
regroup

MorningStar and Persephone were stronger than they looked. We've encountered the goddess before, but only briefly. she seemed so weak and unfocused back then, but now she's different...honed, more precise and the mutant, MorningStar, she the energy she weilds is formidable. she'd make an excellent power source for the Wraith World in the Dark Nebula!

the Dire Wraiths that were present commanded the death wings to close in on Persephone and MorningStar. the giant flying creatuers began to surround them in formation, firing blasts of acid flame before another line of creatures swoops in to strike at them with their shadow talons. intending to capture them and carry them off.

Three of our sisters sacrificed themselves against the other mutant, Rampage. Though he managed to escaped our null field but he is weakened now! He cannot cope much longer!

Dire Wraith: in a deep raspy voice I have you NOW!

another wraith, who dwarfs Rampage in size, extends her... "hands" and ensnares the mutant in a binding spell. the magick forms mystic chains around his neck, his arms, hands, thighs , knees and legs. rending him physically immobile and unable to move. the bindings are IMPOSSIBLE To break by any physical or pisonic means. the wraith then DRAGS the mutant out into the open and HOLDS him there as hell hounds move in. the closest one diving off a platform from above and making a glancing blow as it slashes/phases through his shoulder, slicing it badly before subjecting it to the painfull paralysis.

Dire wraith: you mave have destroyed my sisters, but YOU will not live to savor the victory. my pets will tear you limb from limb while you are BOUND and immobilized by my spells!
 
The Terror Dome

<< Spellbinder caught sight of her sister, Foxfire, who was RIDING a deathwing!? the deathwing was plummeting toward the floor which had now been warped to create a giant set of steel jaws with immense teeth that would crush and destroy anything that fell into their trap!>>

<< Spellbinder turned and swooped down. Rampage was unable to help Foxfire as he was being attacked by another wraith and her hellhounds but Spellbinder had one shot! as she flew down in perfect form, she took aim and a glowing violet halo of dark magick formed around her extened hands.>>

ZARK!!

<< Spellbinder fires an eldritch bolt. the concussive force blast of dark magick charges for the deathwing and SLAMS into it, broadsiding the creature as it screams before being destroyed. AT THE SAME TIME, Foxfire is TELEPORTED via stepping disc and reappears in her sisters arms high above as the falling, flaming carcass of the death wing crashes into the steel jaws.>>

<< Spellbinder slows her speed to allow Foxfire to adjust to the sudden change in direction and location>>

<< in an icy voice>>

Blaze, if you wanted to take a ride, an amusement park might have been a BETTER PLACE to find something.

<< she scolded>>

The deathwings have shifted, they are now coming down on Persephone and MorningStar. The good news is that there's no longer an endless stream of them phasing through the walls of the dome! Something must be happening back at Illustra with my mother and the darkhold...we actually seem to be wearing away at their once "endless army".

<< finding a clear spot to land, Morgan flies down and lands, setting Blaze down and points over to Persephone and MorningStar.>>

Go help Delilah and Persephone and this time, AVOID any reckless stunts. I'll see to Rampage...as he will not be able to free himself from binding magicks of the wraith.
 
return fire

:: Malice looked smug as Black Widow was thrown into the machinery. KNOWING the mutant hybrid wouldn't be so easily defeated, the white queen looked FORWARD to a vicious battle, not really paying attention to the raging battle between the Dire Wraiths and the rest of The Six BUT keeping a firm telepathic fix on those whom she could sense.::

:: she watched as Haleigh lay for a moment, before finally turning around and firing a high tech looking weapon at her.::

:: BUT alot can happen in "a moment" when your dealing with a telepath. As Black Widow executed what was a perfect shot, the bullets HIT their "target"...but nothing happened...as the target simply VANISHED::

Poor dear. That's what happens when you try to fire upon someone who simply ISNT THERE!

:: Malice was now standing on a platform high above, from the moment Haleigh had recovered from crashing in the machinery and turned around, Malice had telepathically "convinced" Haleigh that she had been standing down below all that time but IN FACT she was now in a new place::

Now, it's MY turn!

:: touching her index and middle finger to her forehead in a "salute" pose, a white halo of energy forms at the touching point. a sound of energy charging is heard as a glowing white javeline with sparks emmitting from it forms in the white queen's hand. she takes aim and hurls it with perfect form. the javeline charges for Haleigh with the sound of thunder roaring in the air. It's aimed for her chest and if it hits..not only will it subject her whole body to incredible pain but it will compell any biological part of her system to shut down.::


:: as the javeline flies for Haleigh, Malice has already made it her business to change locations.::
 
Haleigh has seen this effect before... and upon Malice 'saluting', Haleigh knows she must take cover or suffer the consequences. She reaches back over her head and takes hold of the machinery she had previously smashed into. With the ease of Class 10 strength, she lifts it over her head and pulls it down in front of her. It instantly compacts into a LARGE metallic sphere and then SPLAYS out into a disc-like shield so large that it completely conceals Black Widow from view. Malice moves from her ledge, but not before Haleigh can lock onto her DNA signature.

The javelin hits the shield with such force that it pushes Black Widow BACK a few feet. Protected from energy transferrance by her gloves, Haleigh is quick to react, as soon as it hits, she locates Malice via DNA and spins, slinging the HUGE shield [now crackling with Malice's own psionic energy] like a discus towards Malice's NEW location. Haleigh narrows her eyes.

"Why don't you come on over here and fight me like a woman, instead of hopping all over the damn place like a fucking grasshopper, Diana? Come on.... I'll only use my hands.... no guns, I promise."

As if to punctuate her point, Haleigh pulled off her gloves and threw them aside casually. She was less afraid of Malice than she probably should be... but she had always been one of steely nerves and a steady heart. She had no use for fear. the strange thing was, that though Malice might have expected Haleigh to be unafraid, Haleigh was ALSO neither angry or upset, despite the fact that she knew Malice had been torturing Alison and had KILLED Cameron. There was no vengeance in Haleigh's heart.... and, it seemed, even LESS malice.
 
Nicolas grunts with the pain of being actually CUT by the hellhounds. He strains and quickly realizes that the enchantment has him physically bound. But as the Wraith gloats over her supposed victory, Rampage's axe lifts off his back and slings for her unprotected neck as fast as thought, while he grabs hold of the chains, determined not to let HER go either. Meanwhile, his guns lift out of their holsters and begin shooting at the hellhounds to keep them at bay.

"Who's...EXACTLY got WHO here now?"
 
:: The Dire Wraith's were zeroing in on herself and Morningstar as more deathwings began to fly above them, now in formation. Taking her Mystic Daggers out from their holsters, she held them above her head in an X fashion creating a dome of mystic energy around bother herself and Delilah, stopping the acidic flames from hitting them. ::

"Delilah! Blind the creatures with a light bomb, quickly!"

:: Her voice raising over the massive commotion from the numerous battles. With about 10 deathwings flying above them, they needed a big distraction in order to take them out all at once with a big attack. ::

"On three, i'll drop the sheild! One! Two!....THREE!"

:: Uncrossing her mystic daggers, the dome of energy immediately dropped leaving Morningstar with an opportunity to attack. ::
 
[ Delilah remarked at how quick thinking Persephone was in battle. She might proove to be a valuable asset to the team after all. She nodded in understanding of the plan.

As Persephone dropped her shield, Delilah thrust her hands out towards the mass of deathwings. A blinding flash of light lit up the sky, followed rapidly by secondary flashes pulsating in random patterns. ]
 
Foxfire, who was still successfully riding the deathwing seemed to think Nicolas would assist her. When she received no communication from him while in mid descent she had to think quickly. Both herself and the deathwing were falling fast with only seconds to spare! Looking to her right Fox could see a violet hue racing towards the deathwing.

Releasing her hold of the beast, preparing to jump.
The eldritch bolt collided with the creature just as Blaze was teleported elsewhere. The mutant barely had time to focus let alone attack. She was not expecting assistance from Spellbinder, but it was a timely assist after all. Her environment and heighten senses registering the new location. Noticing a pair of strong slender arms around her she could hear the scolding tone in Morgan’s voice. A grin appearing across her cheeks, the tables had turned on her again.

"I suppose, but when do I have the time of day for an amusement park?"

She asked sarcastically, knowing Morgan was looking out for her. The feeling of Morgan carrying her while she flew reminded her of Lois Lane and Superman. It was odd having her sister carry her, but Spellbinder was capable of bench pressing extreme amounts of weight.

Chocolate trestles blowing in the wind with Spellbinder flying the two siblings to safety. "That’s probably the best news I’ve heard all night." She turned to see Malice attacking Black Widow rather viciously.
Pointing a gloved hand towards Haleigh while her eyes studied the movements of Morningstar and Persephone.

"It seems our guest of honor has arrived. I think Morningstar and Persephone can handle themselves, and I wouldn’t underestimate Nicolas. He’s come through some of the most harrowing experiances of his life. Shouldn’t we worry about locating Alison or assisting Black Widow?" Blaze wanted to make sure all bases were covered.

Her green eyes seeing the interaction between Delilah and Persephone. "I don’t mind assisting, but I think those two have it just about wrapped up." She turned to look at Spellbinder for clarification
 
:: Right on cue, Delilah shot of a massive light bomb, along with secondary lights pulsating around the 10 deathwings, distracting the demons. Without wasting time, Persephone thrusted her hands up above her head, sending a gail force blast of lava temperatured heated winds upwards. The impact of the over 200 mile per hour heated winds not only sent the deathwings slamming into the ceiling of the terror dome, but literally burnt them to a crisp, if not melted them to the ceiling. ::

:: The backdraft from the heat filled the dome, immediately increasing the temperature. Lowering her hands, she looked to Delilah slightly out of breath. She was a damn good fighter, and powerful indeed. ::

"In the mood for some BarBQued wings?"

:: Sarcastic yet lighthearted, it seemed that once Persephone saw how the six could handle themselves during battles, the goddess didn't feel the need to be as cold toward them. Turning to see Haleigh and Malice battling, Persephone looked over her shoulder back to Morningstar. ::

"She's in her diamond form. Maybe you can bonbard her with a laser attack. Give Haleigh the chance to retaliate."
 
the terror dome

<< with the sounds of battle all around them, Spellbinder bristled at her sister's question>>

Blaze!

<< she said in an expasperated tone>>

just what would YOU do in a fight with Malice? from all accounts, you're one of the MOST vulnerable to her! and powerfull as Rampage is, he can't adapt to EVERY situation that a MAGICK user can create. Go to Persephone and Foxfire, and stay with them. HELP them. Black Widow can cope with Malice long enough until we can all regroup.

I have the sense that my mother is about to come through for us in a BIG way!

<< she waved Foxfire off, and went to help Rampage. a sinister look came over her face as she thought about what would come ahead in the battle.>>

Meanwhile, all i REALLY intend to do is to get rid of the hell hounds. my ultimate goal is to find Alison and free her...and then, let HER finish the job for ALL of us!


<< she came close to the battle between Rampage, the dire wraith and her hell hounds. Rampage was firmly bound by dark magick and was attempting to defend himself with his own weaponry via telekinesis. a clever enough move given his problem but the Hellhounds were PHASING through the gunfire and closing in. they could attack him with a double front and even hit him in his heart and kill him. even the WRAITH was closing in for a final strike.>>
 
the mutant attempts to defend himself by controlling the objects on his immediate person!

the axe slices the skin of the wraith and there's a searing, stining pain. though she is sorely but it is not enough to kill her! and she will make SURE that he does not live through this

the grotesque female alien leers at the young mutant as a dark liquid drips from her throat area. Rampage is still unable to move but as he pulls on the mystic chains, he actually plays into her next strategy!

Dire Wraith: ::in a deep raspy voice:: your infernal weapons cannot harm the hell hounds!

he will see how they phase through the volley of discharges from the guns

and though i am sorely wounded...your energy will restore me to VIGOR!

with a sickening, predatory roar, the Wraith, now RIGHT IN FRONT of Rampage, is now INSTANTLY upon him. gripping him with her immense, powerfull arms and "hands" and from her freakish jaws comes that long, snake like tongue...the tip of it spinning like a drill and before he can react, the "drill tongue" strikes his foreahead and attempts to drill through to his BRAIN! if it succeeds, the wraith will take all of rampage's energy and be able to completely assume his form to a cellular level AND use his powers. he will die, crumbling into dust while the wraith stands, strong and vital as ever!
 
<< as the hell hounds nearly reach their prey...they are all RUSHED and tackled by DEMONS, techno organic infected demons from Limbo, commanded by SPELLBINDER. the hellhounds growl and yelp as they try to defend against the larger, stronger demons who can compensate for their phasing. the demons will butcher the hell hounds, and Spellbinder continues on, narrowing her eyes as the Dire Wraith is about to slay Rampage>>

<< in an icy voice>>

just hang on!

<< Spellbinder doesnt break stride as he holds out her hand, a chime sounds off and in a flash of black light she manifests the Soul Sword. Easily the most dealy weapon/talisman possesed by anyone in The Six. neither magickal beings nor enchantments can withstand its touch and anyone who falls victim to this blade....will die an agonizing death.>>

those mystic bindings are impossible for him to escape. but not for ME.

<< Spellbinder summons a disc and teleports. she is now along side Rampage and the Wraith who is draining him dry. with one mighty swing, Spellbinder shatters the mystical bindings with her soul sword...the violent backlash will send Rampage tumbling to the ground. he'll be weak and winded from the Wraith's attacking anyway.>>



<< looking at the wraith with an evil glint in her eye, she notices the look of shock on her face. the wraith seems to RECOGNIZE the soul sword...>>
 
CURSES! It cannot BE! the SOUL SWORD in this time line!? then that means....that SHE IS.....THIS world's "Darkchilde!


Dire Wraith: ::in a deep raspy voice:: SISTERS!! DEATH WINGS...BEWARE, the dark child is in this realm....she is HERE with us NOW!!

we must combine our forces or we will suffer the same fate we did once BEFORE!!

the shock, the fear the irritation are felt among the sisterhood as they immediately began to pull back from their individual efforts. the whole space of the dome began to shake and grow dark...dire wraiths lifted their arms and began to focus their magicks in unison, the deathwings followed suit and soon, a swirling, sparkling BLACK nebula field could be seen...reaching all the way to the ceiling.....as a GIANT SERPENT emerged from the the void..the serpent looked so ancient, so EVIL...and was by far t he biggest creature in the room


Dire Wraith: if we are to die....then we will take THIS WORLD's darkchilde with us!

you shall face the power of the dark nebula in FULL FORCE!!
 
things get worse!

:: Malice was impressed with Black Widow's ability to keep up with her using a dna tracking. it would make relying on telepathic blurring less effective but it was not the only thing Malice had up her sleeve.::


:: despite being older than her foes, Malice was in tip top shape even WITHOUT her diamond form. her body was tight, firm, feminine and she looked far younger than her age. lithe and agile, she dropped down and DODGED the large metal "disc" shapped shield hurled by Black Widow, without missing a step. they were now facing one another again::


you are fast and clever. your hybrid nature affords you a level of clarity not found in most of my prey. but it will avail you NOTHING in this instance for while i could EASILY pulp you with but a punch in my diamond form, better i think to have your destruction come...at the hands...of YOUR OWN!

:: Malice's wicked smile seems to occure in time with the blackness that is now encompassing the area around them. her eyes glowing , almost SPARKLING with sparks and her gleaming smile seems demonic as a white halo forms around her head. at the same time, a white halo forms around Persephone, MorningStar AND Foxfire's heads. Malice POSSESES them and strikes them at their emotional core as well with her empathic power::

my precious pets. you yearn to do ANYTHING i ask. you wish to fullfill my every command! and now, what i want you to do, more than ANYTHING...is DESTROY HALEIGH DAVIDOFF!

:: Malice's smile faded in the darkness, like a cheshire cat. leaving a now totally possesed MorningStar, Persephone and Foxfire to close in on Haleigh. Their hearts BURNING with ANGER and RAGE towards the mutant...as Malice distorts their perception of Black Widow....making them believe tehis is all HER FAULT!::
 
Turning around to see Morgan glaring at her with utter disgust. "It was just a question Morgan, don't get your panties in a bunch...or better yet that outfit you have on....if you can label that an outfit." She mumbled under her breath, shaking her chocolate locks.

Her eyes checking on Black Widow who seemed to hold her own. But, Morgan was right! Foxfire was probably the most vulnerable to the team, so she would assist in other areas. Pulling her goggles down to mask her green eyes, Blaze moved to perch herself on a more elevated area.

She thought it was highly illogical to assist Morningstar and Persephone. Both women had the battle under control on their end. Sighing under her breath, Blaze cracked her neck to the side. Her muscles popping as she did. Walking slowly towards Morningstar and Persephone, Blaze had a few deathwings circling from behind her comrades. Noticing a projected piece of weaponry on the "wall" she moved to grab it. The weapon labeled "MysTech."

Retracing a black sword - like weapon before studying it. Flicking it out the slender object elongated into a bow with a florescent blue laser across the front end.

Fully equipped with liquid nitride laced inside the arrow head, Blaze smirked. Placing the arrow across the black bow she posited herself accordingly. Taking aim the deathwings circled around Morningstar and Persephone. Cursing underneath her breath, Foxfire moved to lower ground. Dropping to one knee with her right eye closing as she pulled back the black string.

Her thumb and index finger released with the metallic arrow zipping through the air. The arrow puncturing one of the deathwings. The liquid nitride delivering a chilling frostbite that permanently disturbed the creatures inner workings. Thick sheets of ice blanketing across the dinosaur like bird. The liquid chemical working its way through before sheets of nitrite blew up the deathwing.

Retracing another arrow Blaze began to pick more deathwings off as Persephone and Morningstar destroyed the others. A whirling sound was heard as the arrow impacted on a few more deathwings. Climbing to her feet she rushed down to regroup with Morningstar and Persephone, sending a nod to both.

"Nice work."

EDIT

Foxfire, who had just regrouped with Morningstar and Persephone now felt her body stiffen and tense. Her eyes darkening to their yellow orbs while she felt her heart beat slam against her chest. Her adrenaline accelerating to higher depths than she truly felt. Clenching her fists into tight balls, Blaze felt her body shake with hatred and rage.

Wiping her head around her eyes locking onto Black Widow. "There she is, get the BITCH!" She spoke with a venomous tongue as she moved away from her teammates. Her body catching fire to mask her "human form." Blaze's flames was a solid 1,000 degrees that could destroy any normal human skeletal system. Souring into the air her yellow eyes targeting Haleigh without a second thought.

Raising her arms in the air the floor around Black Widow cracked and broke in half as a mountain of flames exploded through them. The fire more solid as each group "punched" through the floor around Haleigh. Foxfire on the other hand dashed down at around 120mph ready to plow right through her dear friend, unaware she was being manipulated.

the situation just now

<< Spellbinder saved Rampage from a painfull death at the hands of a Dire Wraith but at the sight of the soul sword the wraiths, upon realizing just who Spellbinder was, regrouped and combined their powers to open a dimensional portal, bringing forth a fierce, deadly, TERRIFYING creature, a giant serpent that reached the height of the terror dome. the space around them was now darkened as the light was being consumed by the energy of the dark nebula.>>


<< at the same time, Malice, now telepathically seized the minds of Foxfire, Persephone and MorningStar as she POSSESED them and manipulated their emotions, to turn them AGAINST Black Widow.>>


<< the battle went from a dangerous to downright HARROWING with no easy , if ANY solution in sight!....at least not from within these walls. all the while, still no indication on the where abouts OR well being of ALISON.>>
 
[ Delilah followed Persephone's direction, turning her attention to Malice. Putting her hands out, palms together, she closed her eyes and focused her light energy in order to expel it from her hands as a lazer. But then...

The thoughts invaded her mind. Haleigh! She is responsible for all of this! For Morgan's death, for Sharon, for Cameron. If it wasn't for her, Alison would still be with them! She was a threat to them all - a threat that needed to be neutralized.

She turned towards Haleigh instead, her eyes narrowing. ]

"You are going to regret the day you ever came off the assembly line, you mechanical freak."

[ MorningStar, under the White Queen's influence, fires a photon blast headed right for Black Widow. ]
 
Persephone
Persephone
LOL love this post! "you mechanical freak!" Hehehe, Delilah is damn awesome.
:: Lowering her head as Malice began to use her powers on herself, Delilah, and Blaze, Persephone could feel the anger and rage brewing within her. It was all aimed toward Black Widow. Persephone's solid black eyes blinked up, now glaring at the mutant through dark lashes. ::

:: Noting Blaze's fire attack, Persephone extended her hands out toward Haleigh as the wind began to pick up within the dome. A soft rumbling could be heard as the ground began to shake violently. Suddenly the ground began to explode around Black Widow in a circular pattern, containing the Haleigh with the fire attack Blaze had inflicted on her. ::
 
As Morgan slices free the mystic chains binding him, releasing him from the deadly embrace of the Wraith, Nicolas falls to the floor, exhausted and weakened by the monster's attacks. He can feel his energy returning quickly but he is hoping for a breather. He gets his wish somewhat as the Wraith's pull back for a combined attack against Spellbinder. As they unite to use their magicks, he feels Malice's heavy-handed manipulation of Blaze through their rapport and sees the attacks against Black Widow. He hastily erects a TK shield to try to help her and places an illusion upon the minds he knows Malice must now possess, leading Persephone, Blaze, and Morningstar to now think that Malice is Black Widow and Black Widow is now Malice!

"WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!!!!!"

As the HUGE snake emerges from the portal opened by the Wraiths, Nicolas stands up to face it, now feeling more himself as the paralysis form the hellhound is fading and as he is quickly healing from the devastation that Spellbinder interrupted. He remembers the fear Morgan has for snakes and speaks to her, realizing if she listens to him that he may be writing his own death sentence, even though it may be best for the team...

"Malice has taken the minds of Persephone, Blaze, and Morningstar. If you deal with her, I may be able to use the distraction to get them back. I will dance with THIS in the meantime. Hurry, before our ensnared members kill Black Widow!!"

Nicolas holds his hand out and as the axe returns to it, he flies upward to greet the serpent, hoping to take its attention and goad it into a hasty move...
