Enigma City [Started/Still Accepting via OoC]

[Asriel Dreemurr]

Just as Nash exited the Police Station, the figure of Astrum di Morte had arrived on the scene and was currently watching from the roof of a nearby auto repair garage. The winds tearing through the whole of the scene buffeted the male, but he stood firm even as his hair was blown nearly straight out behind his head like some sort of cape. The garage atop which he stood was easily within Nash's view, but his choice of a poorly concealed location almost directly in front of his prey was intentional. A flash of lightning tore open the sky and illuminated his black clad form in an almost ethereal manner, the pair of Kama reflecting much of the light and, perhaps, giving the brief illusion of shining wings emerging from his back. In the exaggerated darkness following the flash, the male removed the Kama from the leather loops which functioned as sheathes and before the next flash of lightning he was on the ground in front of Nash, weapons held in his hands and arms hanging relaxed at his sides. His masked face stared straight ahead of him towards the young man before him, a few memories of the past finding their way to the forefront of his mind. As Nash had, at one time, been working for and an experiment of C.R.I.M.S.O.N., it was very likely that he would recall the form before him. For the time being, Astrum did nothing and simply stood there a few meters in front of the male, waiting with endless patience for him to react.

Luke parked his Motorcycle on top of a building, where nobody would look. He started whistling a Hypnotic Tune, to the Birds. Immediately, they flew to him. "Now, when I next say Aviation, you will fly to my aid." He told them. "Now, Hypno, release." He said, and took a glance. They flew away mindlessly. "Good. Now they are on my side, though this is a unorthodox to use my Preciouses, it's for the best." He sighed. "Now," He ran towards the ledge. "To take off." He purposely trips off the elevated ledge, to sprout wings and fly, happy about being in the night.

[Damiano Tosē]

Nash walks out of the police station and sees a figure standing before him. He saw the C.R.I.M.S.O.N. emblem on the figure's shirt. His mind suddenly came back to his days in C.R.I.M.S.O.N... his home, the disease they injected in him to be who he is now.

He tightened his gloves and took off his long black coat and threw it into the sky. He smirks as he looked at the figure, "You look familiar..."

"It's like... I've seen you before." Nash keeps talking while looking at the figure blankly. The memories inside his head slowly fades away into nothing as Nash regained his conscious. "....." Nash still smirked as he "teleported" behind Astrum di Morte and just stood there.

"You're... apart of them... the C.R.I.M.S.O.N." Nash said, somehow remembering the name from the figure's emblem. "And your job is to hunt me down and kill me right?" Nash's words were more emotionless then his face. It was still raining, heavy. A thunderstorm did come and now it started.

Tornados started to make there way through but it had not affected both Nash and Astrum di Morte. Nash had his back turned to Astrum as he stood there, waiting for the human to make his move. A crowd started to appear, surrounding Nash and his opponent. Some of the News reporters started to make their appearances as well. One News reporter stood 6 feet away from the two to make her debut. "Hello. I'm reporter Trish Herring and this is, what appears to be, a firece battle between two powerful opponents. And one of them is a member of the C.R.I.M.S.O.N. faction. But which one?" The questioned stunned everyone. Why would a C.R.I.M.S.O.N be here in Enigma City?

Nash stood there motionless, waiting for Astrum to make his move.

[Asriel Dreemurr]

A smirk formed on Astrum's face behind his mask, as he had been perfectly able to perceive his opponent's motion due to his own highly advanced nervous system. He just stood there for a few long moments, waiting for the tension to build as his foe was now standing back to back with him and simply looking out at the crowd that had gathered around them. The thought occurred to him that they would likely wind up being caught up in the battle that was soon to unfold, and as such would almost immediately regret their choice of pastimes. As the driving rain intensified, his long silver hair adhering to his back from the moisture which it had absorbed, Astrum made his move. Rather than any of the predictable moves, he sent his right elbow slamming backwards in an attempt to strike Nash roughly along his spine with enough force to shatter bone. Whether this struck or not, his next move would be to drop down and sweep his legs about in a circle with speed that gave testament both to his years of training in the martial arts and to his genetically enhanced nervous system, and because of that his motions were more than too fast for the average human to even register as motion. Despite the fact that Nash would probably be able to see them coming, given the chance, he hoped that with their backs turned to each other he could catch his opponent off guard.

[Damiano Tosē]

Nash opened his eyes half way as he caught the elbow strike. He smirked as well as the lightning flash in the sky as Nash was easily infront of Astrum.

Using his "teleporting" abilities to move from a great distance at a short time and able to preform short dashes of speed almost as fast as lightning itself, most people seemed that he teleported infront of the man that striked. "......" He gave a emotionless expression on his face as fast as he "teleported" below Astrum. With only holding two fingers together then swiftly switching to the palm of his hand, he thrusted straight through the stomach, strong enough to send Astrum flying through the sky.

Knowing Astrum by the way he looked, he seemed to be a formidable opponent. But Nash appeared to be the right opponent for him. Through years of intense training in martial arts and swordsmanship, his motions were much faster and stronger then that of the normal human brain could ever process.

He kept his eyes slowly on the crowd then closed them. If his opponent were to block the attack, he was low enough to counter with a dragon kick, possibly tripping him, then finishing with extreme combos. But for now, he focused on possibly hitting his opponent.

The crowd started to move in closer but not to close to the action. Still... it would be... "cool" to see the fight on TV. But whatever, Nash was blocking things out and only thinking about his battle with Astrum. Though he couldn't help but think all the things he did and endured back at C.R.I.M.S.O.N. The loyalty, the honor, the trust, the horror, the lies, the injected serum, everything. But, he cut all ties with C.R.I.M.S.O.N. when he escaped and was called a criminal for killing the doctors and guards. He kept that little smirk on his face. It felt good to be bad with the enemy now.

John walked through the streets. He had nothing to do that whole week. The night sky was calming. At least until he heard some loud noises. They seemed to be coming from two blocks away. "Well, there's something to get excited about" he said with a grin. He dashed through the streets as fast as possible. He had to get to the scene. It would be something exciting after a week of nothing. John turned a final corner to see a crowd gathering. He began moving in between people so that he could get to the front. He wanted to see what was happening. When he finally got to the center of the crowd, he saw two people facing each other. Upon hearing the news reporter say one of them was from C.R.I.M.S.O.N. he frowned. "Now what is C.R.I.M.S.O.N. doing here?" He didn't want to fight whoever was innocent, so he waited for one to reveal their identity before he made a move. The fight begun.

[Asriel Dreemurr]

Being fully able to follow his enemy's movements, Astrum was more than capable of seeing as he was set up and the man brought himself just under him. Rather than try and block the attack, he chose to twist out of the way to his right and using the momentum he brought himself into a rapid spin that allowed him to bring first his left foot and then the Kama in his right hand in steadily advancing arcs towards Nash. His kick was aimed low, meant as an attempt to strike for his foe's legs and knock him off balance, while the Kama was aimed high, ready to tear through flesh and bone if his foe leapt up to avoid the kick. The strikes came forth with enough speed that the next flash of lightning would illuminate them as they were barely inches from his foe. Without a doubt, there was enough strength to break bone behind his kick and more than enough strength behind his Kama to send it sailing cleanly through any amount of his foe's body that found itself in it's way.

[Jolta]

"Huh?" Xavierlyn was shocked. "Who could you be? And those powers... similiar to mine?" Xavierlyn was stunned. Next, she saw numerous cube-like droids approaching them. Numerous.

"Well, lets try..." Xavierlyn focused her mana in one spot, creating a black hole, draining all the droids into it. The black hole closed soon after all was done.

"That was close..."

[WildVengeance]

When a wave of wyverns had come for Zero he was ready. He had been running for a while charging electricity for the assault from C.R.I.M.S.O.N.
[b]"Finally,"[/b] Zero's voice full of eagerness. [b]"I've been waiting forever!"[/b]
Zero quickly shot bolts of electricity from his hand at the approaching wave of wyverns. Every wyvern that got hit fell to the ground unable to maintain flight from the momentary paralysis. Zero drew his katana and charged at the injured creatures. After a short while the wave of enemies had subsided. Zero emerged from the destruction with little exhaustion.
[b]"This was only 1 small wave of enemies. Time to move on."[/b]
Zero ran around the city looking for people in trouble. He saw creatures and other humans with special powers as well.
[i]I guess I'm not alone.[/i]
After fending off a few more waves of enemies, Zero kept rushing through the city. He saw a group of golems surrounding a bunch of bystanders. He diverted their attention to him with bolts of electricity, but all the golems remained unscathed.
[b]"No! My electricity doesn't work on them!"[/b]
The golems started to surround him. His expression stayed calm. He then jumped into the air higher than should have been humanly possible. When he reached his peak he skydived straight at a golem. The impact caused the ground around them to crack and the air filled with dust. When the air cleared Zero was standing of a pile of dirt.
[b]"These golems are made from sand."[/b] Zero said in realization. [b]"No wonder my electricity wasn't very effective. I had to resort to my gravitational powers."[/b]
He finished off the rest of the golems in a flash. The group of bystanders were, luckily, uninjured. Zero could barely move. The giant increase in gravity had taken its toll on him. He collapsed from exhaustion in the dark alley hoping the enemies wouldn't find him there.

Xai looked at the Mysterious Rainbow-haired girl as she had said something, Xai then said "i've been here for a while... it's about time you noticed me... I'm known as Xai..." suddenly, She sensed something coming, maybe it was that car coming from the sky right at Xai and the Girl, She leapt up and grabbed the car by the bumper with her tentacles, she then saw some Devil-like creature and identified it as being part of C.R.I.M.S.O.N. and threw the car at it. Due to the Leverage that her tentacles gave her, The car hit the Devil-like creature with a lot of force....

[Mysterium Tremendum]

Alden arrived in Enigma city a few minutes after leaving the Crimson hideout. Immediately, Alden saw hints of the battles that were taking place and smiled maliciously. Whistling, Alden called upon a few shadows that he'd brought with him and with a pointed finger, directed the shadows to attack.

"It seems I'm a little late. All well, they're now almost completely focused on them now so I can sneak in and start causing some damage." The evil smile on Alden's face was engulfed in swirling darkness as he vanished once more while the 8 Shadows he'd summoned began to trek into the city.

Alden's Dark Stream raced through the night until Alden solidified his form in front of a tall building with several round windows. Alden didn't bother to look at further details and promptly prepared to destroy it.

- Darkness Manipulation: Magma -

The explosion of Darkness upon the building flooded it with the oozing black substance before seemingly devouring it in a sea of Darkness. Alden's demonic smile shone once more and he began engulfing everything in the small area in Endless Darkness.

[Big Bad Pennar]

Suddenly, Xai felt some sort of Stinging on her arm that grew bigger, She looked on her arm and was Agast with what she saw, She saw something that resembled black ooze on her arm that sparkled with Stars, however, this really did not faze her, because the downsides of her ability had caught up with her before, she took a stance, however, she jumped on top of another building, her tentacles grabbing the Mysterious Girl as well just before the alley exploded...

[◇ Void ◇]

The scientists dragged Lucciano into a large Medical bay. A couple of men, Equipped with set's of Syringes and needles took hold of Him and lowered Lucciano onto an empty Hospital bed. There, they pierced his skin with the needles, Injecting various drugs into his blood. Lucicano squirmed as they kept injecting him. "Hold still!" the first one barked. The other one grabbed Lucciano's hand's to pin him down onto the Sterile bed. Lucciano threw out the respirator from his mouth, "Let me go! I don't need these drugs in me!" The blue veins began to glow on his jumpsuit as his anger grew, Following though to his wrists' where the Medic was restraining him. The suit's veined patterns comprised of quartz, Allowing Lucciano's power's to manifest. A cascade of Small sharp shape's began to glow at his wrists', drawing blood from the Medic.

[Magnet Soldier]

"Well. The wyverns were a bad choice of Distraction. Too weak. The droids, I dont know why I bothered." A voice said, coming from the alley that had exploded. He followed the jumping Squid, and as the Squid landed, he was already there. "You two seem to be my targets. And that means you're going to die. I've got to admit though, you two seem stronger than I expected." Akira stated, sighing. "I apologize for this. If this city was richer, or C.r.i.m.s.o.n was in charge of [i]that[/i] things would have ended up differently. Sadly, that's not the case. Again I apologize." Akira stated, looking at the ooze from the squids arm. He chuckled and looked back at the two girls faces. "My name is Akira. Which means what I am. Killer."
The last word had been whispered into the Squid's ear, as a sword punctured one of her Tentacles. He then teleported behind the Girl. "And you are my main target, and interest me much more than the squid." Akira murmered into the girl's ear, before grabbing her, trapping her hands behind her back, and summoning a small amount of steel thread to tie them together. "Your coming with me." He said to the girl, before throwing a Shuriken at the Squid. He grabbed the girl's arms and teleported them to the roof of a Building on the other side of the City, away from the squid, and lightly placed Xavierlyn on the ground near him. "I am sorry for my rudeness." He said, bowing. "But I wanted to be careful. Especially around something that big." He motioned towards the area the squid had been. "Please, start with your name." Akira said, sitting down infront of the Girl.

[◇ Void ◇]

The quartz that grew on Lucciano's wrists' rapidly increased it's rate of growth, the deep red seeping into the cracks of the pure white quartz. The medic removed his hands from Lucciano, grasping his blood soaked hand in pain. The other medic just stood back from Lucciano, refusing to suffer like his partner did.

"Do you have any crystals? I need them." Lucciano turned to the wounded Medic, notably his ruined hand. Walking off the bed, he grasped the man by his wrist and asserted his authority over the duo. He clasped one of the shard's of quartz that had cut the man and ripped it out in one pull, agony to the victim. Releasing his grip, returning to his bed and grasping the bloody crystal, Lucciano's body suit shimmered in tandem with the quartz. Afflictions in and out his body began to heal, color in his skin and hair returning to there full contrast. The glowing parts around his spine also reacted to his healing, A purple shimmer flickering though each of them for only fractions of a second.

A scientist entered the Throne room where most of C.R.I.M.S.O.N.S members began to assemble for there raid on Enigma City. He bowed to his leader as a sign of respect, delivering a small notice to him;

"Master, we have cracked the pod we recovered from the city. The so Called 'Project: EVO' was a teenager. We are still unsure of any power's he may posses, but would you like me to bring him before you to evaluate?"

[Big Bad Pennar]

Xai sighed as the sword did not do anything to the tentacle that Akira tried to puncture, and she very easily blocked the Shuriken thrown using her extremely hard tentacles, causing the Shuriken to shatter, she chuckled at the fact that Akira had "teleported" like a coward, However, she could feel some kind of Force, her eyes Glowed red again, she had dreamed of riding the force that she felt. in the instant she woke up, She appeared quite a distance in front of Akira and said "Well then You must be must be cowardly for a 'Killer'" the Black ooze had also spread a little more over her arm, she sighed and glared at Akira in the eye waiting for his next move, taking a stance, in turn exposing not 10 as most people thought, but 16 tentacles...

[Magnet Soldier]

"You aren't what I'm interested." Akira started, lifting his hand up to grab the hilt of his sword. "You have a strong power, but this girl has the same power, and isn't just a large animal. I'm interested in what else she can do. You....it's a bit obvious. You are nothing special, not to me." Akira finished, drawing his blade and holding it lightly in his left hand. "Although at first this blade wouldn't cut you initially, that was because I wasn't that bothered. You didn't interest me at all, but if you fight me now, I'll kill you. If you run now, I'll spare your life this once. And no need to rush." Akira said, kicking a stone near his boot towards Xai. As it approached her, it stopped in mid air, aswell as everything else within 100 Metres. Not a breath of wind blew, not a single cry penetrated the air, and not a single smell enticed them. "We have all the time in the World." Akira smiled.

[Big Bad Pennar]

Xai's eyes glowed, she then said "What makes you think you can kill me, lowly Idiot, and what makes her so 'Special'..." she crossed her arms, her tentacles spread "I'll make you understand what I am Capable of!" Xai's eyes glowed brightly as a Huge gash appeared behind Xai, She gazed at her arm as the Ooze-like Substance now covered her arm completely. She also glared as she swung a Tentacle at Akira....

[Magnet Soldier]

"I dont know myself. She's just....more than you. Better than you. And her powers are similar to mine, more refined than yours. Yours are like that of a Barbarians." Akira stated, swinging his wrist around so that his Muramasa twirled what seemed to be a Circle in the Air. "Your powers are interesting, dont get me wrong." Akira started, jumping as the tentacle lashed at him, staring at the Gash behind her. "It's just....hers are more interesting. Yours I think I already understand slightly." Akira stated, as he landed lightly on the Tentacle, while waving his hand slightly. The stone that had been paused, like everything else started moving again, along with a gust of wind that buffeted the group, causing the tentacles that may have been defending Xai's eye's were brushed out of the way and the Stone managed to hit her in the eye, blinding her for a second. This gave Akira an opening, which he took advantage of by jumping from the current tentacle he was on to one of the flailing ones, bouncing off that to appear right infront of Xai's face, his blade slashing down onto her face. "Dont get cocky."

[Christian Exodia]

Luke was still flying, music blaring. Except, no motor cycle. He had his own music player, and as he flew , it gave music around town. He looked around, looking for Crimson Agents to defeat. After his infusion survival, he had been deemed a target for Crimson. Not too high a bounty, but enough to give one to make chase. He noticed, from the corner of his eye, a high-bountied lady, Xai, as he thought. Still he perched on top of the ledge. Once he was ready, he took the chance, and leaped from his high perch. He sprouted his wings, and began a downward dive at Akira.

[Big Bad Pennar]

She giggled as that slash did not do much to her, she may have been blinded by the dust, but her other senses have increased, she then said "well then looks like that did not do much", she opened her eyes easily despite the dust, her eyes glowed, the darkness Spread over her chest and over to her other Shoulder, She disappeared from Akira's View and reappeared beside Xavierlyn, her hand on her head, Suddenly, the darkness consumed Xai and Xavierlyn as the Tear Grew wider and wider to reveal some kind of huge, very Evil, Dragon-like creature, A creature purely out of some person's nightmare, slamming downward towards Akira, Just before the Attack hit, Xai and Xavierlyn Disappeared in a black Flash, along with the Dragon-like creature and the tear....

Xai Woke up in a very familiar place, the black void many people call 'Non-existence', a place most people would never think of going, She sat in a meditative Position after cutting the Steel String that bound Xavierlyn...

[Damiano Tosē]

Lightning flashed again as the rain stopped. The sun shined bright. It didn't affect the two as their fight kept on going.

Nash smirked as he slowly made his move, reading his enemy's attacks with ease. He stepped on Astrum's ankle to stop the low kick and and dodged the Kama in Astrum's fist by catching it. He felt a few bones in his hand cracked out of place because of the strength as he didn't wince or flinch. He motioned his left leg backwards to Astrum's right side of his body and launched a swift yet un-godly punch to Astrum's ribcage that would hopefully send him flying to the police station door. Nash looked blanked and emotionless as he closed his eyes. He wondered how the others are doing.

He didn't really care that much. Although, he was kind of excited a little.

"....." He sighed in disappointment. The news reporters will have to depart soon, for this battle is about to get ugly. Two very skilled martial arts hand-to-hand combat fighters fighting to the death, and they're in the way.

[Mysterium Tremendum]

The Darkness felt delicious...it was like a drug that went straight to Alden's brain. He'd long trained himself to block out the voices, but this time he decided to drop the defenses and let the voices scream in his head.

[i]Yes, use it. The power will make you invincible. All you have to do is use more of it. The Book is always there .... and there are so much power you could gain! Open it ..... let the Darkness take you and you will gain more power than you could possibly dream of.[/i]

The Dark Magma that flowed from Alden's body spread through the alleyway, engulfing whatever it touched in a melting sea of Dark Ooze. Alden smiled maliciously as he allowed the voices free reign to speak to him so as not to hold back all the majestic power that filled him to the brim that very moment.

Silently, the open alley area was completely filled with the Magma of Darkness and enveloped it fully and completely. The large area had melted to the point it now seemed a shadow of its former site. With the area completed, Alden walked out of the alleyway, dripping with the Dark Magma from his arms and headed east to cause more chaos.

[Asriel Dreemurr]

Astrum once more smirked invisibly as his foe was now precariously perched upon his own left foot, ignoring the slight pain caused by the pressure of Nash's weight upon his own left ankle. As he noticed that his opponent was now driving a punch towards his rib cage, he flipped the Kama around in his left hand so that the blade was facing down and underneath his arm before driving his left hand forward in such a way as to be parallel and slightly above Nash's punch. The end result was that Astrum was driving the bottom of his Kama roughly towards Nash's right shoulder in such a way as to have positioned the blade directly in front of his coming punch in an attempt to simply cut his hand completely in half. Simultaneously, he forced his left leg once more to his left in an attempt to knock Nash off balance, as now his only point of contact near the ground was the foot resting upon Astrum's ankle. If everything went as he hoped, Nash would not only be knocked off his feet, but also be short one hand.

[WildVengeance]

Zero had regained consciousness. All his wounds and effects from gravity had disappeared as if they had never happened. He had used his gravitational powers to get high in the sky right before the alley had melted in black ooze. He had seen where the dark magma had returned to. The source of this power had seemed extremely strong so Zero had decided not to approach yet. He stayed in the air staying out of sight observing his powers. At the same time he was running in the air to store his powers if he ever got into a confrontation.
