Shit is going to be incensed

You dash through the woods, moving as fast as your cuffed legs will allow, looking over your shoulder and searching for your attacker.

Sweat drips down your face as you continue your attempt to escape, leaping over logs and ducking beneath branches. Each time you catch a glimpse of movement, you push yourself to move just a bit faster. Birds flee from the trees, flying as far away as they can in the face of this powerful destructive force.

You wish you could levitate more than a few feet, and you wish fighting was an option here, but you know that stopping now would be unwise, especially as you see a shape shoot through the sky above you, vanishing as it descends into the forest ahead of you.

Rapidly changing course, you crash through the trees and bushes, knowing that keeping quiet won't be of any actual help here. Your pursuer will still find you quite easily. Still, you're growing tired, and you wonder how much longer you can keep this up.

>A. Keep running! You can't stop now!

>B. Stop and await your fate

>C. Try to hide somewhere

>>A. Keep running! You can't stop now!

>>42463609
>A. Keep running! You can't stop now!

>>42463609
>>A. Keep running! You can't stop now!

>>42463632
You can't stop now! You'll keep running until your legs give out if you have to, but you will not let yourself be caught!

You duck as your pursuer dives at your head. They shoot right past you, vanishing into the trees once again. Stopping dead in your tracks, you make a one-eighty turn and sprint back the way you came, the sounds of branches snapping in the background alerting you to the fact that your pursuer is closing in fast.

Seeing a low hanging branch coming up, you get an idea. Leaping up, you grip the branch and throw your lower body up, flipping up to an arm of the tree, which you quickly follow to the top.

You leap from the treetop, shooting right over the head of your pursuer and crashing through branches towards the ground. Landing in a crouch, you look around to see your pursuer following fast. You keep running, moving as fast as you can, only to be cut off.

Kaya, dressed in a drill-sergeant outfit, hovers in front of you on her oar, a stopwatch in her hand and a smile on her face.

"Three hours!" she says cheerfully. "Well done!"

>A. Catch your breath

>B. Tell her she's a real sadist

>C. Tell her you still think she gets off on this sort of thing

Must be one intense game of fire tag with Kasai.

>>C. Tell her you still think she gets off on this sort of thing

>>42463814
"I still think you get off on this sort of thing," you comment, hunching over and huffing as you catch your breath.

Kaya giggles to herself as she hops off her oar, putting it over her shoulder. "That's really to your benefit. It means I'm giving you the sort of intense training you'll need."

She smirks down at you. "You're welcome, by the way."

It's the day before the final round of the Dark Tournament, and you're getting in all the training you possibly can. For the past three hours, Kaya has pursued you through the woods, threatening to beat you with her oar if you stop for even a moment. It's been a long three hours, but you've succeeded.

>>42463986
>A. Thank her for helping you out

>>42464034
"Thanks for helping me out," you tell her.

"No problem," she replies.

"So, what have the others been up to during our little game of tag?" you ask.

"Training, of course," Kaya answers. "Speaking of which, Kasai should be waiting for you right about now. You should probably hurry up and meet her for training."

>A. Ask her to give you a lift there

>B. Go find Kasai

>C. Something else

>>B. Go find Kasai

>>42464200
>B. Go find Kasai
I would choose the lift, but I'd rather get as much training we can get even from walking

>>42464217
Saying goodbye to Kaya, you rush off to find Kasai, your legs crying out in protest as you dash through the forest. You come to a clearing, where Kasai hovers above the ground, sitting in the air with her legs crossed and her eyes closed in the middle of a colossal ball of fire.

As you step into the clearing, you feel yourself becoming drenched in sweat from the intensity of the flames. Kasai opens her eyes, which dance with fire themselves, and dispels the fiery orb.

She lowers herself to the ground and turns towards you, taking in your tired appearance. She looks about ready to suggest you just call it quits for the day, but decides against it, dropping into a fighting stance.

"Let's begin, and see how long you last," she tells you before thrusting her right hand forward.


A powerful torrent of flame explodes from her palm, heading right for you.

>>42464408
>B. Try to overpower it with your own flames
Push it to the limit!

>>42464408
>A. Activate your suit
Jump and while firing a spirit blast from our feet for an extra push, fire some fire balls at her. Then duck and roll when we land and get ready to dodge what ever counter attack she does.

>>42464408
>>C. Dodge

>>42464471
>>42464477
>>42464489
You activate your suit ad you leap as high as you can, shooting some flames from your feet to give yourself an extra boost. Looking down at Kasai, you conjure fireballs and throw them down at her, watching as she swats them aside rather easily.

Maybe fighting fire with fire isn't a particularly good idea, in this case.

You duck and roll as you land, narrowly avoiding another torrent of flame. But, the flames quickly pass in front of you, and you soon find yourself in a circle of fire. Thoughts of jumping out quickly vanish as the flames create a dome over your head, trapping you inside.

>>42464616
>>A. Spirit Explosion
This is the AoE one right? What does Spirit Blast do?

>>42464616
>A. Spirit Explosion

>>42464650
Small concentrated attack. similar to a palm strike in a sense but a bit bigger

>>42464616
>A. Spirit Explosion
Probably do it at the last second before being engulfed since it has a certain area range.

>>42464650
As the flames close in, you gather your Spirit Energy, releasing it in a powerful explosion that disposes of the flames, freeing you from your fiery prison.

Of course, that doesn't make you safe from Kasai, who comes rushing your way and attacks you with a burning fist.

"FIST OF THE MORTAL FLAME!" she shouts, giving you a single, powerful punch to the gut that somehow seems to burn and electrocute you at the same time.

You stagger back, smoke rising from your suit as horrible pain shoots through your body. Your knees buckle, and you fall to all fours, looking up to see Kasai standing above you, her foot held above your head.

"Do you give up?" she asks.

>A. Yes

>B. No

>>42464926
>G. Grab her ankle and throw her to the ground
Get a spirit blast ready to counter an attack from her free hands.

>>42464926
>>B. No
>C. Spirit Blast

>>42464990
You misunderstand, when you're in a fight, unless specified otherwise, everything is fair game.

>>42464990
>>42465003
>>42465055
"No," you tell her, reaching up and seizing her ankle.

You throw Kasai to the ground, rolling on top of her and attempting to pin her. Her fist erupts into flames once more, and she throws a punch at your face.

"Fist of the Mortal Flame!" she shouts.

You answer with a Spirit Blast, and her fist slams into your palm. Your attacks colliding causes a large blast that throws you off of Kasai, sending you almost as high as the treetops before you come crashing down onto your back.

Fresh pain shoots through your body, and you feel exhausted as you push yourself back to your feet.

There's a crater where you and Kasai were a moment ago, and she slowly hovers out of it, her cloak torn and burnt. She looks somewhat hurt, but in much better shape to keep going than you do. The way you see it, she only needs to land one more solid attack to beat you, while you have no idea what it will take to put her down.

Kasai's body erupts into flames, the heat intense enough to cause some of the nearby trees to burst into flames. You instinctively take a step back as Kasai steps towards you.

>>42465284
>C. Give up
"I'm burned out for the moment"

>>42465311
"I give up," you tell Kasai, who immediately cools off, the flames on her body vanishing.

She takes a deep breath, calling the flames from the nearby trees to her and consuming them, seeming to heal whatever injuries she sustained.

"You fought hard," Kasai says as she approaches you. "But you didn't fight much with your head. And, with the Demon Cuffs, you're nowhere near as powerful as you could be."

She smiles. "Still, you're nearly as strong with the cuffs now as you were without them. When you remove them, you should be stronger than any of us by far."

"Hey Kasai, do elemental apparitions get along or is there hostility between your opposites?"

>>42465583
"Can you help me get back to the hotel?" you ask as you deactivate your suit.

Kasai nods, walking over and allowing you to lean on her as she flies back towards the hotel. Things are quiet, until you decide to ask a question.

"Hey, Kasai, do elemental apparitions get along, or is there hostility between the elements?" you ask.

"We try to keep to our own kind," Kasai answers. "Fire apparitions don't usually get along with water or ice apparitions, though lightning apparitions and wind apparitions are friendly towards us."

The two of you land, and Kasai helps you inside. The hotel room is mostly empty, save Lucy and your father. Your dad is making some coffee, while Lucy is sitting on the sofa reading a book. As you and Kasai enter the suite, the two look over.

"Looks like you've been training hard," Lucy comments, shutting her book and coming over to help Kasai take you to your room.

"Make sure you rest up," your father warns. "You have a very important job to do tomorrow."

>>42465947
Yes

>>42465876

The one Aalgan interrupted.

I like kasai to but goddamn, wait till the cuffs come off and belial is dead.

>>42466052
>B. Go to sleep

>>42465875
Some sleep does sound good right about now, and you need all of your energy for tomorrow. So, you let the girls take you to bed, and fall asleep almost the instant your head hits the pillow.

The next day, you awake energized and ready for battle. Your team gets ready with barely a word, and you walk together to the stadium, acutely aware that this may be the last time you're ever together as a group.

As expected, the crowd is calling for your heads as you enter the stadium, though by now you've all learned to ignore them. Belial's team stands waiting on the other side of the ring, while Belial himself already waits in the center.

"Team Luke has finally arrived!" Koto announces to the excited crowd. "Now, if Team Captain John would please step into the ring and negotiate rules with Team Captain Belial."

The crowd continues to call for your gruesome death as you make your way into the ring, slowly approaching your enemy.

"Human, each of us wants the others team dead," Belial says once you reach him. "So, I propose we fight a series of one on one fights until one team is completely wiped out. It's the logical conclusion to this battle, anyway. If your team loses on any circumstance, I will see to it that they die. And, if my team were to lose, I'm certain your master would want us all slain."

"What an exciting idea for the final round!" Koto shouts with glee. "John Luke, what will it be?"

>A. Deal

>B. No deal

>C. You and Belial have to fight first

>D. Dialogue writein

>E. Something else

>>42466299
>A. Deal
Begin to stall for that one extra minute, make a damn speech if you want.

>>42466299
Would waiting until everyone else fights and then taking off our cuffs to fight make any noticeable difference in our strength gained?

>>42466354
>>42466299
this

>>42466364
Koe's advice was to keep them on until the last possible moment. But, letting the others fight first gives you a larger chance of letting your emotions get the better of you

>>42466415
So a game of chicken in which we either get stronger while trying to control our emotions.

>>42466299
>B. No deal
You can't kill us in battle, but if we all lose then you can kill us all at once afterwards

>>42466455
This, if >If your team loses on any circumstance, I will see to it that they die.
meant that if our teammate lost the match, but was alive he was going to kill them then and there.

>>42466455
Seconding

>>42466455
When I said "you" I meant "your whole team"

>>42466455
"No deal," you tell him. "Your team can't kill us in battle, but if we lose, then you can kill us all afterwards."

Belial chuckles darkly. "No deal. In every match, you and your teammates are fighting for their lives, boy. Do not forget that."

>A. You'll take his original deal

>B. Fine, then standard one on one fights

>C. Five vs Five

Stab him in the eye with the giant dildo we brought.

That'll stop his dastardly plans!

>>42466562
>A. You'll take his original deal
We can wish everyone back to life if we win anyway right?

>>42466562
>A. You'll take his original deal
Fuck, hope everyone wins their fight.

>>42466645
Dragonballs don't exist here. Unless your talking about whatever Koenma did.

>>42466645
"Fine, I'll take your original deal," you tell him.

"Very well," Belial says, turning and leaving the ring.

"That's right, folks! This last round will be a series of one on one battles, continuing until one team has been entirely wiped out!" Koto tells the crowd, who burst into excited cheers.

You turn and exit the ring, watching as a cloaked figure steps in. Ronove appears to be intent on going first, and Kara hops into the ring to meet him.

The two of you pass each other as you exit the ring.

>>42466783
"Good luck," you tell her as you hop out of the ring.

"Thanks," she says as she makes her way towards the center.

"The first fight will be Kara vs Ronove!" Koto shouts the crowd.

"Rip that damn human apart!" someone shouts.

"Tear out her throat!" another calls.

Kara drops into a fighting stance, while Ronove remains motionless. The two maintain their positions as they wait for Koto to call for the match to start.

"Begin!" she calls.

Kara strikes swiftly, landing a powerful kick that knocks Ronove onto his back. As Kara rushes to attack while he's down, a swirling mass of shadow appears between her and her target.

Slowly, it takes shape; a cloaked figure with a dark mask carrying a staff. The figure twirls his staff, and it begins to glow red with demonic energy as he drops into a fighting stance.

"Incredible!" Koto calls. "It appears as though Ronove has risen Jaculum from the dead! Since no weapons have been banned, Spirits are technically okay to use! Unfortunately for Kara, that means she could be stuck facing quite a few opponents."

"She doesn't stand a chance," Aalgan comments as Kara leaps back. "You should tell her to get out of the ring while she still can."

"No, Kara's Spirit Energy surpasses the phantom in front of her," Kasai assures Aalgan. "She can win this battle."

"Hmph, we'll see," Aalgan tells her.

Kara holds her left palm out, facing it towards the sky and bringing her right palm down to clap with it. She separates her hands, raising her right above her head and back a bit behind it, while doing the opposite with her left. As her hands move, they leave a mass of Spirit Energy behind them, creating a somewhat round object that Kara grabs with her left hand. A second line of Spirit Energy connects the top and bottom tip, and you see what she was creating.

"Spirit Bow!" she shouts.

>Continued

>>42467122
Kara holds her right hand back, and an arrow made of Spirit Energy appears between her fingers. She nocks the arrow and pulls back on the string, releasing the projectile at Jaculum, who knocks it out of the way with his staff.

Kara creates three more arrows, shooting them all at once. Once again, her opponent deflects them. Cursing, Kara grips the bow, and it vanishes from sight.

She holds her right hand out to her side, and her fist begins to glow. You can feel her Spirit Energy rising as a beam of yellow light extends from her hand.

"Spirit Sword!" she shouts, swinging the beam around and dropping into a fighting stance.

"Woah..." Bruce says.

Aalgan laughs. "She must be joking."

Kara rushes towards Jaculum, attacking swiftly and savagely with her sword. Jaculum manages to parry every strike, and soon counterattacks, spinning and striking Kara in the face. She spins with the blow, doing a jumping spin kick that Jaculum blocks with his staff. Kara launches herself off the staff and does a backflip, pointing her sword towards Jaculum.

"Spirit Sword, extend!" she shouts, and the weapon obeys, stretching and catching Jaculum off guard.

The sword his him in the face and knocks him off of his feet. His grip on his staff fails, and the weapon falls from his hands.

Kara lands and moves towards her fallen foe, stopping once again as two more shadowy figures appear. This time, however, her body goes stiff, and her sword vanishes.

A man with blonde hair and blue eyes, and a woman with brown hair and brown eyes smile at Kara. The closer you look, the more you see a resemblance between them and her. It doesn't take long for you to put two and two together.

"Mom...dad...no...it's not really you," Kara says, her voice trembling.

"Of course it's us, sweetie," Kara's mother says gently.

"We've missed you so much," her father tells her.

>>42467299
>>42467312
"They aren't real!" you shout to Kara as Jaculum picks himself back up.

"Of course they are," Ronove says with a laugh. "Everyone has their ghosts. It just so happens that our Detective here has closer ghosts than others."

You think about what to say to snap Kara out of this. You consider reasoning with her, or assuring her that her parents wouldn't want her to get killed. But, then it comes to you.

You'll play to her pride.

"You're really gonna let Ronove fuck with you like this?" you ask her.

Kara relaxes a bit, and you can hear her chuckle to herself.

"No, I'm not."

She rushes past her parents, engaging Jaculum once again. The two trade blows briefly before the ghost manages to throw her back with a palm-strike to the chest. Kara rolls back as she hits the ground, and leaps into the air.

"SPIRIT SWORD!" she shouts, creating another blade with her Spirit Energy.

Jaculum prepares to block another attack.

"Extend!" Kara shouts, and her blade obeys.

Jaculum prepares to block the weapon, but it passes right over his head, catching Ronove completely off-guard and impaling him through the chest. Ronove falls back, and Jaculum vanishes, along with Kara's parents.

"Imbecile," Aalgan comments as Kara lands. "He didn't even defend himself."

Kara approaches Ronove as he begins to picks himself back up. She rushes towards him, bringing her sword down on his back and cutting right through him.

Ronove's cloak falls to the ground in pieces, but it seems empty. That's when you see a tiny imp-like creature leap from the bottom half of the robe and slash at Kara's face. On pure instinct, she swings the sword despite her surprise, and manages to cut the creature in two before it can reach her.

The dead demon falls to the ground at Kara's feet, and she goes to check the robes just to be sure. Koto joins her, but the two find no sign of anything else in there.

"Ronove seems very dead!" Koto shouts. "First fight goes to Kara!"

>Continued

>>42467555
>"First fight goes to Kasai!"
Kek. Too many K names.

>>42467579
You see Belial frowning, and Ziz eyeing the dead imp-creature with disgust.

Kara gets rid of her sword and turns to leave the ring. She hops out, looking a lot more relaxed. You guess she just needed a good fight to put her in a better mood.

"So, who's next?" she asks.

>A. Congratulate her

>>42467639
No, we wait until the last moment to fight.

>>42467643
>>42467639
We should see who goes next, first.

Kasai is the best bet for beating Ziz, after all. Since she can fly as well.

>>42467668
Yeah but he could probably blow away her fire with wind from his wings too though

>>42467685
She can punch him.

In that regard, birds have hollow skeletons, and are pretty frail.

>>42467685
He did it with us when we didn't have the cuffs, don't know how strong everyone got since then. But still a possibility, but at the same time Kasai is better at fire control than us.

>"Hey, Kasai, do elemental apparitions get along, or is there hostility between the elements?" you ask.

>"We try to keep to our own kind," Kasai answers. "Fire apparitions don't usually get along with water or ice apparitions, though lightning apparitions and wind apparitions are friendly towards us."
She probably can beat Ziz, don't know if Vepar can use water magic though.

>>42467710
I just think fire is a bad choice against the dude with wind powers in general

>>42467748
You know a jet of flame can exert more force than a gust of wind, right?

Like, excessively so?

I don't know why, but this makes me hype for this thread.

>>42467797
And apparently this guy's wings make way stronger gusts than the usual wind. He used it to redirect our flaming spirit gun easily.

>>42467903
That was a projectile, not a focused jet of flame.

They behave differently.

That's like saying a water balloon acts the same way a river does.

>>42467638
"Good job," you tell Kara.

"Thanks," she says. "And...thanks for helping me snap out of it up there. I owe you."

"I'll take the next fight," Aalgan announces, stepping into the ring. "I'll take on any one of those losers on Belial's team. You all just make sure you're ready to clean up the rest."

With a squawk, Ziz enters the ring, slowly moving towards Aalgan, who draws his daggers and prepares himself to fight.

"This should be fun," Aalgan comments.

"I'll enjoy eating you," Ziz assures Aalgan. "Eating so-called "hunters" is so very enjoyable for me. Just try to put up a fight. I prefer for my prey to give me a challenge."

"Fight!" Koto shouts.

Aalgan slashes at Ziz, only to be knocked back by a gust of wind before his attack can hit. He rolls back to avoid Ziz's talons, successfully evading them as he gets back to his feet. Ziz takes to the sky, flooring Aalgan with another gust of wind as he flies higher and higher.

Aalgan curses, hurling one of his daggers up at Ziz, who squawks and sends it right back down at its owner with a gust of wind. Aalgan leaps out of the way, but is caught in the blast as something in his dagger explodes.

Aalgan is thrown across the ring, landing back in the center and going still, Ziz squawks from above.

"Idiot! Idiot!" he calls. "I shouldn't have wasted my time with you. I hope at least, that you are tasty."

Ziz comes to ground and slowly approaches Aalgan. He nudges Aalgan with his feet a few times, then opens his mouth wide and leans down to swallow Aalgan's head.

That's when Aalgan, moves, throwing his other dagger into the creature's mouth and rolling away.

Ziz jerks up, squawking in surprise, then vanishing in an explosion as Aalgan's other dagger blows up inside of him.

There isn't much left of Ziz after that. Aalgan collects his daggers and steps out of the ring.

>>42468064
Wow.

Ziz was a stupid nigger.

Like holy shit, my brain hurts from the level of retard he just showed.

>>42468064
>A. Congratulate him
Bruce is up

>>42468064
>A. Congratulate him

>>42468082
Birdbrain is an insult for a reason.

>>42468064
>A. Congratulate him

>>42468082
Well, he really was a bird brain.

Jesus, i mean i wasnt expecting any of our teammates to lose but that was just silly.

>>42468114
kek

>>42468130
Those guys are small fries compared to Lilith and Vepar.

>>42468130
>implying kasai won't die and we won't go full demon

>>42468114
Does he at least taste good, there should be some fried bits of him that survived.

>>42468177
I don't know who Vepar is, but I know Ziz was supposed to be a big fucking deal from wherever it originally came from, though I can't recall where.

>>42468216
Vepar is strong Great Duke of Hell. He is basically in a sense the demon version of Poseidon.

>>42468257
Oh, noice.

Where from? A mythology (I obviously haven't looked into) or some setting somewhere?

>>42468087
"Good work," you tell him.

"Man...that was easier than I thought it would be," Bruce comments.

"That bird was an idiot," Aalgan says simply. "And once it was grounded, it was too slow to run and too stupid to make sure I was dead before trying to eat me."

"Ziz was supposed to be a legendary creature," Kara says. "How could he lose so easily?"

"Out of the triad of beasts Ziz belongs to, he's the one nobody remembers, because he's far less remarkable than the other two," Aalgan tells her. "Were I to fight Leviathan or Behemoth, I would die for sure. But Ziz was well within my ability to fight."

Lilith steps into the ring, eyes resting on you for a moment. She gives you a smile that makes you feel weak in the knees before looking over at Bruce. She beckons for him to come to her, and he begins to step towards the ring.

>A. Let Bruce fight

>B. Suggest that someone else fight

>C. You want to fight

>D. Dialogue writein

>E. Tell Bruce to be careful

>F. Something else

>>42468285
>>B. Suggest that someone else fight

Kasai time?

>>42468310
>>42468285
this

>>42468285
>B. Suggest that someone else fight
Kasai, something tells me Lilith has an advantage over men.

>>42468285
>B. Suggest that someone else fight
Kasai

>>42468318
I don't think Aalgan was too concerned.

But maybe he wasn't looking.

>>42468318
Lilith's powers aren't gender-specific, men are just her preferred victims.

>>42468345
What she still mad that Adam got a better waifu in Eve?

>>42468285
Hold up, SOM, is this the biblical Lilith or the Babylonian one?

>>42468352
More or less. She's great at holding grudges.

>>42468285
>>B. Suggest that someone else fight

Definitely Kasai, but be ready to grab Bruce in case Lilith can trick him into running into the ring or something.

Maybe Kasai's lack of conventional vision will help her out if part of Lilith's powers are visual tricks.

But Bruce's powers being based on emotion are definitely trouble if she can mess with his head.

>>42468378
Biblical, but the Biblical version is thought to be partially derived from the Babylonian one.

>>42468398
Do you think we'll make it to the end of the tournament arc in this thread?

>>42468419
I think you'll make it to the fight with Belial.

>>42468398
>tfw Lilith has been in fucking everything, from the oldest record civilizations all the way up to Christianity

Bitch is everywhere.

Wasn't she in some greek or roman shit, too?

>>42468430
Yup, she was connected with the Greek Lamia

>>42468422
So you'll stop right before it or do we get to fight him tonight?

>>42468310
"Bruce, I think someone else should fight her," you tell your friend.

"Now, now, no need to be selfish," Lilith purrs from the ring. "I'd be more than happy to deal with you too, but Belial has plans for you. And beside, I want to play with your little friend. I have something to show him...."

She smiles sweetly, but there's something in that last statement that gives you an uneasy feeling. Of course, you know she plans to kill Bruce, but there's something more to it than that if your guess is correct.

"Yeah, she wants to play with me," Bruce tells you, smiling and looking like a dope.

"Be very careful," Kasai warns. "Lilith is one of the most ancient demons in existence, and men are her preferred victims."

"Why don't you fight then?" you ask Kasai.

Kasai looks worried by that suggestion. "I would prefer to fight Vepar, but only by a small margin. Neither of those demons are to be trifled with."

"I'll fight her," Bruce says, sounding annoyed.

"Team Luke, if a fighter does not step into the ring, you'll be disqualified!" Koto shouts to you.

>A. Let Bruce go

>B. Send in Kasai

>C. You'll fight instead

>>42468589
>>A. Let Bruce go
eh screw it

>>42468589
>B. Send in Kasai

>>42468589
>A. Let Bruce go

>>42468614
>>42468637
>>42468666
RIP Bruce because we're going along with Liliths plans for him

>>42468589
>A. Let Bruce go
Forgot she's a vampire here, Bruce has a better chance against her since of his spirit energy acting like an armor for him.

>>42468698
So what you're saying is he is going to go in there, and, being enthralled, fight her?

Uh huh.

Unless this is just Bruce acting, and he suddenly picked up grade-fucking-A acting skills, he's more than likely going to die.

>>42468719
And if Bruce dies the demon cuffs are gonna fill us with demonic energy when we get pissed. At least that's what I assume will happen, idk how demon cuffs really work.

>>42468719
He has Aalgan for his teacher, I don't doubt he hasn't picked up some stuff from him that is going to come into work in this fight.

>>42468767
Lilith has a specific plan in place for Bruce and you guys were dumb enough to let it happen when we could have easily avoided it

>>42468614
You decide to just let Bruce do what he wants here. Telling the others to stand back, despite their protests, you watch as Bruce jumps into the ring.

Lilith smiles as he approaches, the glow around his body already rather faint as he makes his way to the center of the ring.

"Okay....Lilith versus Bruce..." Koto says, looking between the two oddly. "Begin!"

Lilith smiles at Bruce, who quickly lowers his guard even further, his aura growing dimmer. She saunters over to him, running a hand up and down his arm while leaning in and whispering into his ear.

That's when Bruce strikes.

His aura suddenly shines bright as he slams a fist into Lilith's , knocking her flat onto her back. The female demon looks up at him in rage, leaping out of the way as Bruce attempts to stop on her.

"I don't get it, why wasn't she able to charm him?" Kara asks.

"I have him a little protection for that," Aalgan answers. "So, as long as he doesn't do anything stupid, he should be fine."

Lilith lifts into the air, looking down at Bruce with annoyance. "I hate when my powers don't work. Men like you are infuriating. But, I've been at this game a long time, and I know there's more than one way to destroy a man."

She reaches into her robe and grabs something.

"One of my favorites is to destroy something he loves," Lilith says before throwing something down to the arena floor in front of Bruce.

It rolls towards your friend, who stares down at it, going completely still. His aura turns white, then alternates between a dark red and a dark blue. It ultimately settles on purple as Bruce trembles with anger and grief.

At his feet is his mother's head.

RAISE US TO DEFCON 1

she knows bruce works like the hulk so what is she going for?

>>42468855
>>B. Tell everyone to get as far from Bruce as they possibly can

Yeah, we should get down.

I'm glad he's not the one with the cuffs.

>>42468855
Wtf. Her plan was to make the spiritual hulk as mad as possible? What kind of plan is that?

>>42468920
>>42468934
Maybe she's hoping he goes completely berserk and crazy

>>42468934
The one where he implodes with rage.

The one where he channels all the rage from the entirety of the first run of DBZHQ into the span of a few seconds.

The one where he becomes one with the neckbeards, and vows to destroy all normies.

>>42468907
>>42468914
Is John mad, guys?

Now I'm hoping for him to summon thunder in the form of spiritual energy to strike her down, he has the hammer might as well make him go full Thor by now.

>>42468959
nah, just scared and confused.

>>42468959
Uh... no? Maybe he's a sociopath who doesn't give a shit about his best friends mom dying.

>>42468959
Considering that his best friends mom is dead, and he understands what it feels like to lose a mom. More than likely his pissed as well, not as much as Bruce though.

>>42468959
Yeah. He's doing his best to control it though.

>>42468959
He's going to be pissed, but not as at the level Bruce is at.

>>42468959
He's feeling a tad apoplectic but he's gotta keep a level head

>>42468975
This was sarcasm if you couldn't tell

>>42468878
"Everyone, get as far away from Bruce as you can," you warn everyone, trying to reign in your own anger as you leap back to the stadium wall.

One by one, the others follow, and you're pretty sure you can hear Lucy crying from the audience.

Bruce screams, voicing his pain and rage to everyone. The sound is deafening, and you notice that, as he yells, the panels in the ring around him begin to crack. Lilith climbs higher into the sky as Bruce leaps up at her, missing by a fair distance and sending tiles flying as he lands back in the ring.

You watch your friend, consumed by grief and anger, desperately trying to reach the woman who killed his mother. Then, you watch as Lilith retrieves something else from her robe and drops it.

It splatters when it hits the ground in front of Bruce, hitting his legs with a red substance. It's hardly recognizable now, but you're pretty sure that was the head of Bruce's father.

>A. You're angry

>B. You're furious

>C. You're trying desperately to keep a level head, but it isn't really working

>>42469042
>>C. You're trying desperately to keep a level head, but it isn't really working


these can't be real, but she saw what happens when bruce gets angry so what game is she playing.

>>42469042
>B. You're furious

>>42469042
>C. You're trying desperately to keep a level head, but it isn't really working

>>42469104
So uh, when is Bruce going to start bleeding from his every orifice since his body surely can't handle this much power?

>>42469042
>C. You're trying desperately to keep a level head, but it isn't really working

>>42469042
So wait, was she basically using our friends dead parents heads as fake breasts or did she have pouch in that robe?

>>42469188
Yes

>>42469059
You try desperately to keep a level head, but you can tell it's not really working. You feel a pain shoot through your wrists and ankles, but are distracted from it as Bruce screams again, continually leaping at Lilith, his aura becoming more intense each time he fails to reach her.

"He's losing himself to mindless rage," Aalgan comments.

"We're in some serious trouble," Kara says.

>To be continued

That's it for tonight, next update should be Sunday or Monday night. Follow me@qmdralo to see when it's up.

I'll stay here to chat/answer questions for a little while

>>42469264
Beliel, Vepar, and Lilith's thoughts at this?

>>42469264
she planned this all along didn't she.

how was your day Som?

Oh god. We forgot to tell Koe to protect Bruce's family.

That's how she got to them!

Guess two wishes are going for the parents then.

>>42469277
I bet Lilith will be feeling really cheeky when Bruce goes full Broly and lunges at the closest thing

and it happens to be Belial

>>42469264
So who resembles who from Yusukes crew.
And by that I mean who would John, Kara, Aalgan, Bruce, and Kasai be considered in close resemblance.

>>42469277
Belial is pleased.

Vepar is more or less indifferent.

>>42469283
Fine, how was yours?

>>42469296
>Implying this works like the Dragonballs

>>42469313
How do we take off the cuffs?

>>42469313
is when we loose our first comrade som?

>>42469323
Say the password.

>>42469309
Appearance wise?

>>42469332
Might be

Well, time for Venom John.

Kasai, I'm already a demon.

>>42469336
Characteristic wise
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDypgHE_YyU

>>42469346
Aalgan would be close to Hiei, I guess Kasai would be a bit like Kurama. John and Kara really aren't too much like any of them, though they have some similarities with Yusuke. And Bruce would be a bit like Kuwabara.

>>42469336
Is there any way we could use toguros glasses anymore

>>42469336
Is the password "Koe #1 boss"?

>>42469380
No

>>42469381
No

>>42469375
So appearance wise would be the same or different for some?

>>42469313
Don't we get wishes granted if we win?

Kasai will probably wish for her eyesight.
And Bruce and John can wish for each parent.

Unless someone else dies.

>>42469380
We can use them as a pair of free sunglasses.

>>42469395
No, none of them look like team Urameshi.

>>42469400
It's things within the power of the committee to do. Genkai was an exception.

>>42469400
You have to ask Koenma for lives, that's how Genkai was brought back. Don't know if bodies without their heads can be brought back.

>>42469418
Koto's thoughts?

>>42469459
"Well, this got interesting."

>>42469531
Would Koe know about some dark magic that can bring back the dead, without negative effects?

>>42469531
How would you have played the "dead parents" card if we let Kasai go?

no matter how you answer I'm going to go on believing we killed his parents by letting him go

>>42469665
They'd have killed them AND him had he not come along.

>Bruce I'm so sorry. I thought your parents were safe.

>Slap!

>My parents are dead!

Bruce is now Bathulk.

Looks like Bruce is going to get closer to Kara now.
