Ruin awakening...

Medusa stood tall deep within the ruins, in the middle of a stonehenge looking part of the ruins that seemed to be omitting a strange and ominous power. "Nake... Snake... Cobra Cobubura... Naaake... Snaaaake... Cobra Cobubura..." Medusa smiled "The Kishin Asura, I beg for your return... For you are needed to change this world into one anew and ruled by your power..." Medusa raised her hands, then noticing from the high powered magic assisting her magical perception that... someone was coming... And coming fast. Or, perhaps, there were people already here. She frowned "Hm. Free. Eruka. Mizune sisters. Unwanted guests are approaching of limited power... Take them out. This energy of these ruins will increase our magic by tenfold. You all alone can easily eliminate anyone who comes within. Do not let them enter here..." Medusa turned, letting her lackeys go do her bidding.

They all said in unison "Yes, Lady Medusa!" And went on their way to intercept and destroy the enemies.

-Time Skip--

Some time later, Maruze would shoot into Medusa's immediate area, however he stared at her in secret hiiigh atop a broken pillar. He would wait for Tera, since Maruze did not think he could handle this witch alone, seeing as what she was doing right now... He then heard her start to speak.

"...Hm? Is she referring to... Tera...? What could be going on with him right now...?"

Medusa begins to giggle a bit "Hmhmhm... It is almost ready for the Kishin to return... Once I am done here, he will come and be under my control... Hmhmhmhm..." Medusa looked up to the border of the barrier "And so long as I'm here, might as well make my power boost permanent..." Some arrows extended into the border of the magic barrier and began to suck in the magic. Finally, when enough magic was sucked out, 4 small orbs appeared in Medusa's hands. These orbs would allow her and her colleagues' powers to be amplified tenfold even when not within the borders of the magic barrier... Which would be quite useful. "Ah, what use these will be in the futu-- ... Wait... Something is amiss.. One of them is here and I know it..." Her snake-like eyes darted up and locked onto Maruze's position. She stared up at him, though said and did nothing as magic surged throughout the concentrated area that looked like Stonehenge. She knew Maruze saw her, and he would know that she saw him. She merely giggled and turned back around "With this pool of magic, the souls from the past will build and the Kishin will draw near... And when the time comes... The snake will strike..."

~@Tera zoomed in above Maruze, jumping off the board, landing next to Maruze. He hand two Kuro-Maitsu Sycthes in hand, both pulsating with his rupturing chakra.@~

So...this is Medusa? The one Khrona talked about?

~@He stood on guard, feeling an emense power coming from her.@~

Maruze jumped a bit after being seen by Medusa "So... She knows I'm here...? And yet she does nothing...?... ... Wait, then that must mean... Shit. I need Tera here now... We have to take her out now..." As Tera came up next to him, Maruze immediately began to speak "Yes, that's her. She's almost done with whatever she is doing... We must act NOW!"

~@Tera would slash both of his sycthes in Medusa's direction, sending thousands of condensed sound strands and dark energy threads at her in the wavelength fashion. Dark energy began to engulf his arms from his sycthes, spreading to the rest of his body.@~

Yeah, lets!

~@ He dashed off to the side some away from Maruze after the attack. This way if she pulled something, they both wouldn't be caught at once.@~

Maruze dashed off to the side opposite of Tera, hoping that she would only be able to get one of them instead of both. "Infinite Blades!" 99 blades then appeared above Medusa and proceeded to crash down on her at a high speed.

A large arrow came from Medusa's body, easily as large as a plane and without any effort slapped away all of the swords. As for the strands, easily dodge... "Vector Plate." Suddenly, the ground under her collapsed and she fell into a large hole. The Vector Plate was made under the surface of the ground pointing downward, so the ground would be compressed drastically and Medusa would have a quick access underground escape. Suddenly, above Maruze and Tera were 2 large Vector Plates that floated, pointing in the opposite direction the they were running, which would forcefully push them back into their initial positions, which Medusa was now directly under, however still underground. Finally, she finished her action, though Maruze and Tera would not be able to hear her "Vector Storm." From that position, a maelstrom of huge, cutting arrows instantly shot up and ripped through everything above Medusa, about the size of an F5 tornado, which just as much power, to boot. Each of the arrows moved in different directions, which made them even more.. slicey.

~@The threads and strands that missed would worm into the ground in once again a wavelength fashion. As Tera is forced back, as well as Maruze, He stabbed one of his sycthes into the ground, causing a rip along the way back.@~

Tch-Vectors??

~@As they flew backward Tera would hear the ground beneath them rumble and rupture, meaning something was coming. He leaped into the air, spinning a sycthe in each hand like a cyclone, and as they spun they began to brim with dark energy. The vectors came up, and while some would be forced slightly to the side to avoid hitting Tera, others, or most in this case, that didn't get moved by the cyclones would be chopped by the rotating Sycthes. He wasn't sure of how Maruze would handle the situation, so Tera would have Maruze shadow rise up around him, then solidifying like dark energy, to be a decent defense to the vectors, unless he already took care of himself.@~

Maruze had his 99 blades fly back to him "Magic Division!" He would have all 99 swords surround him so that he could divide the magic of Medusa's attack, however even with divided power, Medusa's vectors were still strong enough to push him away. He landed some feet away from them "Thank you, Tera... But make sure to be wary of your surroundings.. It seems as though she can make those 'Vector Plate' things anywhere and they will instantly force us in the direction that they point... and they may point to our doom..." Maruze began to glow after he finished talking "Sword Magic; Blade-Man combo!" All 99 of his swords then merged with his body, the Magic Division still in effect so that when Medusa attacked, it would be reduced power, or at least to him. Unfortunately, since he was using his Blade-Man combo, he wouldn't be able to help Tera without physically getting near him to cut the magic... But he figured he would be fine. Maruze did not want to jump straight down into that hole, for he knew nothing of what would happen. He would have to wait until Medusa came up..

Medusa laughed loudly at the two "Hahahaha!! I think I am done toying with you all now... Completion of summoning the Kishin Asura is just about complete.. Might as well get rid of you... Vector Boost." Arrows appeared all over Medusa's body being embedded into her skin. She figured she would tell them what she was about to do to them, since she was evil like that "Hmhmhm... I would suggest that you all brace yourselves, since I have just done my Vector Boost power up... What it does is increases all of my attacked x3 until all of the arrows are odff of my body... And with this magical barrier, my Vector Boost's power is increased tenfold, making it increase all of my magic by x30, and with all of my magic already increased tenfold by the barrier, that would mean that all of my magic is increased by... hm... What's that number? 300 times? Haha~ I believe that is correct~!" Her eyes could be seen gleaming from the darkness of the large pit that had been made from her vectors. To show off, she proceeded in making one Vector Arrow come from her body, which was about 2 or 3 times larger than a whale. It shot straight up, practically destroying the entire area completely where those two stood. And that was just one when she normally made usually 100 come out. She began to laugh "Why don't you just go home, little boys~?"

~@Tera would hold his hands up as they began to make a buzzing noise. The sound created from the destroyed building would condense together, forming a ball of compacted sound in the air.@~

That would be nice, especially considering this powerful energy I'm sensing, but alas, this was our mission.

~@ As Tera spoke, the area would be destroyed completely, but as boulders massive ceiling fragments and what not fell down, The ones heading toward Maruze and Tera would split in half, falling around them, not on them. Tera was now a few feet of the ground, the atmosphere around him looked warped.@~

Hmp, Looks like...theres no avoiding using this, for this fight.

~@ He clapped his hands together, sending a wave of air at Medusa. The clap itself was also a shockwave of sound, and sound travels quickly through air, and with the air already moving at a high speed towards Medusa, the sound shockwave would be 3 times as quick as any regular sound wave he produced, moving at her with speed equal to mach 3. Sound can be heard, but not seen, as for the air moving this quick, it would catch other air molecules along the way to Medusa, becoming bigger with each passing second. Not even a second later, it was about 10 meters away from Medusa the width and length of a sidewalk {length being an entire block}. Tera whipped around his other hand, and a sphere of air would appear beneath Maruze, keeping him afloat.@~

Maruze tried to assist Tera by putting some freezing winds along with his attack "Sword Magic: Ice Blades!" He leapt into the air and began to spin and released a huge amount of icy mist, which would get caught up in Tera's attack and fly at Medusa in an attempt to freeze her as well, and hopefully stop her from completing this summoning.

Medusa's plan was just about complete. She could feel the presence of the Kishin coming closer, the insanity that filled the air. There was no stopping it now. The only thing to do was to quickly rid herself of these children... "Vector... Storm." Again, she released gargantuan arrows from her body that took the shape of a tornado instantly, however they were so incredibly large and powerful as of now that they basically completely decimated the area into nothingness, ridding her of the attack from Tera and Maruze altogether. The arrows would almost instantly shred them to bits if they were not to block them, since escape from them was just about impossible. Medusa laughed wickedly "It doesn't even matter! I have stalled you all long enough... The Kishin Asura is here... And perhaps he will harvest your souls for the hell of it? HmhmhmhmHAHAHAH!"

A horrible aura of insanity was let loose about the area as Asura made his way in. The skies turned red and black as far as the eye could see, seemingly going into the Reality village itself as of right now. Asura's mouth was gaping, drooling for the souls that he had seen in the Stonehenge looking summoning place. "The one who has left me these souls... the one who has brought me back.." He sniffed about for the presence "... Hmmm... Who are you, witch? I am grateful for these souls... What is it you seek of me...?" Asura inhaled, sucking in all of the souls with one large gulp. There seemed to be just about 1,000, making Asura now have a total of 2,000 souls, meaning he was just surging with a extreme and unbeknownst power.

~@Thinking quickly, Tera grabbed the ring of condensed sound from his fight with the other two witches, and pulled it off. He dashed in front of Maruze, and held the ring of sound forward.@~

Cover your ears Maruze.

~@ The condensed sound relieved its pressure instantly, and the sound would burst about through the area, rupturing everything in site, leaving the area but a clean to the bone barren land. This massive burst would quickly send off the incoming vector arrows into other directions, if not ridding of them completely due to the rupturing of molecules by the high sound burst. With the arrows taken care of, Tera would turn his attention to the creature that came before Medusa.@~

Is that...what she was talking about? A Kinshin?

~@Wind would spiral around Tera's hands before mixing with some dark energy. He clapped his hands, sending a massive vortex infused with dark energy and rupturing chakra at Medusa and the Kinshin. His hands would quickly form another layer of dark energy and wind.@~

Maruze stared at the Kishin "... Tera... I don't think you should mess with him... If my memory serves me correctly, then he can--" It was too late, Tera had already acted. All Maruze could do now was... wait and try to defend.

Asura looked at the threat that was attacking... He saw the witch as an ally, seemingly, and the sword one as not an immediate threat... Just another soul to eat later. The other one... The one using sound... That was the one he would have to take out. Asura clasped his hands together and a huge rune/seal thing appeared around him and Medusa, easily brushing off the souls as if it were nothing, mostly because thesis was made of soul energy and was a force rather than anything that worked on a molecular level and lastly because... well... Sheer power difference. Once everything was done, The rune seal things dissipated. "Witch... Prove your worth to me by ridding me of those two... I do not seek souls of such low power... They will fall soon enough to my insanity..." Asura wrapped his skin around his mouth automatically, making it look like a scarf of 3 fingered hands though the skin only wrapped around his neck and mouth, leaving his 3 eyes and his hair able to be seen clearly.

Medusa smiled "Why yes, Asura..." She raised a finger "Vector Plate." A gigantic arrow appeared under Maruze and Tera, forcefully shooting them both out of the magical barrier. Now, the force of this Vector Plate was strong enough to pierce the exceedingly strong barrier, and not only that, force Tera and Maruze aaaaaaaaaaaaalll the way back to the Reailty village. That is one fucking strong plate. "Now... Asura... I am Medusa, the snake witch... I wish to serve you so you may douse this world with your insanity... To rid you of that Shinigami and all of those who wish to kill you for your soul... My goal is your goal; to take them out and collect some souls and experiment along the way. If you would care to come, I would very much.. Appreciate it...." Some of Medusa's soul energy snakes that were invisible flew throughout teh area and into Asura, however because of the incredible magical boost from the barrier, they were more powerful and elusive, making them even powerful enough to pollute and feed Asura's mind. She smiled, for her planwas coming together. She laughed as she could see through Asura now because of the snakes in his body that he didn't even know would penetrate him and latch to his mind and soul. If he thought of turning on her, she would alter his judgment. No matter what, Asura would join her... He absolutely WOULD.

Asura did not know why, but he was compelled to join up with this witch... No matter. It could not be for the worst. He did not fear her and she wanted to be rid of Shinigami, and that was a plus and therefore he would not take her soul "... Alright. I will join you. Just show my passage to where reside... and we may pursue with the effort of destroying Shinigami... while insanity contaminates this world..." Asura released a huge wave of insanity into the sky once again, and many black and red balls fell from the sky. They were incarnates of insanity. Asura's minions that he had no care for. They would roam this place and spread insanity through the ground and retrieve souls from him, made from him and of his insanity and his soul. "Let us depart." He wrapped a scarf around Medusa and flew off back to his original home, where he was awakened the first time so long ago by the same person.
