Existant Listing!

Posted by Croabadrin Dec. 18, 2009 @ 7:50 PM EST

Set in for a long one here...
----------------

1. Angroy
(Ghost)
The Angered Phantom

Angroy was the first of all known Existents. He is one of the "Elders" as we call them, for being one of the original set.

Angroy takes an appearance that is seen in all Ghost types. His torso consists of a metal sphere about three feet in diameter. His shoulders are nothing more than dark purple spikes shoulder pads. His arms consist of a long line of floating rock discs (11 per arm), with a stone hand floating at the end. His legs have evolved from a previous form: his midsection is now a line of three floating discs like his arms, without the free-moving ability that the arms have (upon separation, the discs will return to their position immediately). This leads to a metal hip-looking piece (for lack of a better term) that has the two legs made of smaller metal spheres linked end-on-end. His head floats above his body as a rock oval with the ends sharpened. One half holds his face: the shape of the oval is made up on one half by metal blades that lead off of his forehead and chin. Inbetween these blades (in the gap that is near the middle of the oval) is his face: Yellow eyes and sharp metal teeth.

Angroy is one of the tougher Existants, with his Earth Sword Ability (allows him to conjure two spikey sword made of rock) and Ghost Walk Ability (which allows him to pass through anything at will). His arms can travel indefinately from his body, making him extremely dangerous to all who oppose him. He can also call upon Crystal Clones, glass versions of himself that he can control. He can have up to four Crystal Clones appear as detailed as himself instead of completely clear: the only way to tell these from the real one is to hit them. If it shatters, it is a clone.

Angroy's Release Form is terribly powerful. It is named Spinra, the Angered Soul. When in this form, Angroy cannot control himself. HIs hands meld to his head and form the sides of a new mouth that takes up all of his face area; Spinra has no eyes. It makes new hands from red energy blades that it can extend from the arms, along with the ability to extend red energy spikes as well. Spinra is known for being extremely tenacious and uncontainable.

At one point, Angroy was in a relation with Tara, but they both decided together that things just wouldn't work and they broke up.

Angroy is generally a fun loving guy. His environment, the Phantom's Arena, can generate a replica of any creature within my memory or imagination, leading to some interesting matchups. Anyone is welcome to the arena, even in Combatant mode, where two actual people face off. It is a favorite hangout of Tibereus, where he'll do battle with anyone and anything that enters. In Combat mode, the combatants are actually in separate rooms: they battle as holograms that can transfer sensations to the player. If the hologram dies, the program shuts off and the player comes out.

Represents:
Anger
Bravery

Ability List:
Wraith Chain
Earth Sword
Crystal Clones
Ghost Walk

2. Delek
(War Machine)
The War Machine

Delek was actually the fourth Existant known, but he gets number two for being Angroy's first brother.

Delek was originally thought to be an evolution of Angroy, but when Angroy was still around, he was diagnosed as a full Existant. His entire body is composed of metallic spheres appoximately five feet in diameter each. They link end to end, making up a humanoid shape. His feet are like giant propellor blades (with a LOT of rotors) with the triangular tips bendable (they pass as toes, but not really...). His hands are normal shaped as well. His head looks the same as Angroy's but metal and with the eyes completely yellow with no pupils and circular metal shutters.

Delek is revered as the toughest of the tough amongst the Existants. He represents Hate and Rage, and cannot be physically harmed as long as either of those emotions remains in my heart. He can morph any part of his body (usually the hands, but can be anywhere. Stop thinking that, you pervert!) into any weapon that is stored in him memory. His favorites would be a hand-mounted laser or rotary machine guns. These abilities are strengthened by his ability to change size. At his smallest, he's around five feet tall; at his tallest, he can spar with Godzilla.

Delek's Environment, the Weapon's Warehouse, is essentially a huge warehouse that he spends most of his time in. At full size.

As far as we know, he has no Release Form.

Represents:
Rage
Hate

Abilities:
Weapon Conversion
Ultima Skin
Size Fluctuation

Grice
(Void)
The Musical Void

Grice is a harmless and friendly being. He was originally thought to be highly dangerous, but this theory was proven wrong when he finally managed to successfully communicate with me.

Grice looks like a portal made of shiny metal, with a black hole in the center. He can hide and reveal his red eyes and thin mouth at will. When revealed, they make him look like a strange smiley face.

Grice's only abilities are to generate a weak shockwave along the ground and to channel music to everyone else. He takes the job as the group's DJ (and does a good job if you ask me).

He is strongly attached to Savvanha. She will not go anywhere without him, nor he without her.

Grice's Environment is the Music Room. Essentially, it is a sort of DJ room, where he can play around with music tracks.

Grice's Release Form, Greyack, is just as harmless. He gains blue eyes and mellows out. That's about it.

Represents:
Sorrow

Abilities:
mini-wave
Music-Route

Diablo
(Goblin)
The Frustrated Devil

Diablo is the main shopkeeper for DBT (Diablo, Breyna, Trixie). He is the mastermind and founder of it, being the only Existant able to copy food at will.

Diablo looks like a small green goblin, at about three feet tall with pointy ears and long black claws. That about sums him up.

Diablo has the ability to move at near-sonic speed in short bursts. He can travel about five meters in a short dash, and can do this repeatedly. He also has the unique ability to copy ghost items, which he uses to stock his shop. He recruited Breyna for her ability to combine ghost items, and therefore create new foods. He can also hide behind objects that do not have enough space to actually hide him, like cartoon characters do.

Diablo is a mischievious little bugger. He likes to play with laxative and other experimental substances every now and then, slipping it into the occasional customer's food (always testing it on an AI program before an actual Existant). His talking matches his movement speed. If he's in a hurry, it's hard to catch a single word he says.

Diablo's Environment is the Diatrix, a sort of Matrix-like city. He can reset the civilians and other such things at will.

As far as we know, Diablo has no Release Form.

Represents:
Frustration
Greed
Envy

Abilities:
Flash Dash
Ghost Copy
Toon Antics

Frear
(Beast)
The Guardian FireHound

Frear is my personal guard for trips through the dark or during the night.

Frear is an animal. He has the body of a lion, a 5-foot neck the thickness of a tree trunk, and a nightmarish face: his short, brownish grey mane rings his head, with his two unblinking yellow orbs of eyes and gaping, three-rowed, needle-toothed mouth. His entire body is dark grey, with lighter grey spots.

Frear is polite and mostly friendly to strangers, and completely loyal to his friends. He has the ability to teleport if any part of him is enveloped in a dark enough shadow (he does not cast a shadow himself, though), which makes him an excelent night guard. He can also breathe fire, letting him light the way for himself and I. For quick transportaion without shadows (rare), he can generate spheres of dark mist under his paws to glide over the ground faster than running.

Frear's Release form, Raef, the Guardian BlazeHound, appears as frear, but with skin of fire. The transition take place as Frear's skin cracking and falling off, revealing the fire underneath. Frear retains his full personality and conciousness in his release form.

The Hollow Clocktower is where Frear resides. It's a large... clocktower... in the middle of a town inhabited by strange creatures.

Represents:
Fear
Will to Protect

Abilities:
Shadow Slide
Shadow Transport
Fire Spout

Sleytra
(Avian)
The Arctic Avian

Sleytra was the second female Existant.

Sleytra is a bird put into human form; that is, she is covered in green feathers and has a hooked beak. She's tall enough to intimidate normal people.

Sleytra can control ice. Or at least we call it ice. She can make it appear and disappear at will, with any qualities that she should so wish (ever feel blazing hot ice? It's weird.). Her only other ability is the capability of transforming her arms into huge wings. She's been practicing, but is still a bit shaky on gliding.

Sleytra is normally unfriendly and sceptical. If someone shows affection for her, she softens up though.

Sleytra's Environment, the Crystal Palace, is elegant and made entirely of ice. The palace isn't transparent, and the entire area around it is covered in snow.

Sleytra was once in a relationship with Rapael, but when he failed to show strength, she broke up with him.

Abilities:
Wing Weaver
Ice Queen

Represents:
Sceptism
Sarcasm

(Still in Progress)

Existing Prediction

Posted by Croabadrin Oct. 24, 2009 @ 3:45 PM EDT

When in this world the two realities collide, then, and only then, shall they who are linked between the two find true happiness.

Until that time, they must seek comfort with eachother and their families, to wait for the day yet to come.

Resembelances and Rememberances.

Posted by Croabadrin Oct. 10, 2009 @ 12:27 AM EDT

I just noticed that several of the existants' appearances are extremely similar to images that i've seen before. All that I can think of at the moment...

(all characters are property of their respective owners)

Gaiya: Geecku (Chalosan)
Xia: Xeanica (Chalosan)
Beyta: Bomba (NapalmKrillos)
Raivaerra: Ravenna (Taharon)

I will provide links to their artists when I get the chance.

In the meantime, my family... got a bit smaller today.
Our cat Tigger, that has been in the family for almost as long as I can remember, was put down.
May he rest in peace...

Finality

Posted by Croabadrin Sep. 24, 2009 @ 7:18 PM EDT

Lunar stood unphased by Rancor's yelling.

"What? Scared?" Rancor asked, standing up straight and smiling. "You know... I think you-"
.
.
.
.
.
--URK--
.
.
.
.
.
........
...............
........................

Lunar stood behind Rancor with his back to him. The dark being stumbled forward a few steps before painfully turning around, black liquid pouring from his neck and torso.

"You talk too much. Now I see why Croab wanted to get rid of you." Lunar said, cleaning his darkness-stained kunai with a cloth. "You showed me your weakness when I was fighting you in Croab's body. You're too cocky."

Rancor flinched at the word weakness. After Lunar finished speaking, he stood up straight...
...and laughed. He laughed at Lunar and the slightly stunned, slightly proud Runeas. As he faded away, he said his last words:

"Know this, demon man! Know that I can never be defeated by anyone other than Croab! You have not ended this forever! I will return... and I will fight freely."

Lunar simply stared without interest as the last of his being disappeared.

--------------------------------------
---------

Lunar shook Croab's hand. They were in a large field of green grass and the occasional hill. A perfect calming landscape, if you will.

"So... no hard feelings? I'm really, really, REALLY sorry, you know......"
"Don't worry about it. Heck, I even got my arm back! Good as new."

Lunar stood beside Runeas, having been the one that spoke last. Croab stood a few feet away from him, in his white suit, and with all 29 of his Existants behind him, 30 if you count Ferras the Light Balacri.

"What about...?" Lunar asked, eyeing Croab carefully.
"I know what you're thinking, and don't worry. Breyna met Hinata, and sent her home to wait for you. In fact, that's where you'll be sent in a few moments."

Lunar let out a relieved sigh. She was safe! He would ask her all about her experience after getting a well-deserved nap.

A portal opened up behind each of them. Lunar could see a field similar to this one through Croab's. He could see his own tree/house (treehouse?) through his own.
Croab had explained to Lunar the full extent of a dark balacri: They were power-hungry monsters that represented every last bit of hatred and evil in one's heart. Whoever ran the tournament brought that out of him to make him more powerful.

"I thank you once again for freeing me from Rancor. Let's keep in contact, we may need eachother's help sometime."
"No problem. How will you contact me?"
"You'll know when the time has come. Don't worry about it."

With that, all of the Existants disappeared into Croab as he stepped backward through the portal. Lunar got one last look at his Reality Caster eyes as the portal closed. The yellow seemed to hang in the air for a few seconds after the portal closed before finally disappearing...

Lunar turned to Runeas, who had managed a physical form like Croab's Existants.

"Shall we go?" he asked, "I wish to meet this Hinata girl that you've told me about."
"...Yeah...
.......
Let's go."

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
[1 year later]
-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Lunar hopped out of his tree and headed into town. It was time for some more Ramen (ever since that battle long ago, he couldn't get enough of it. He would never take noodles for granted again!).

He passed Korika on the way there. She paused and looked back at him as he broke the forest wall and headed to the ramen shop.

*he still won't hug me* she thought as she turned back to heading to his tree.
*I mean, sure, i'm covered in thorns, but can't someone just put on a thick coat? Just once...*

She had been wanting at least one hug from everyone she was close to when she was born. Just her luck to be born as a plant being, with many pink petals forming her hair and her body being both green and thorned. If nothing else, she could take pride in the fact that she represented his understanding.

*Well... I guess I should understand. Even Runeas regretted fulfilling my request, even with his tough scales. At least he tried.*

She walked up to his tree and climbed up. She was at least going to wait for him there. Summer days were getting boring...

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Lunar felt strange. There was something about the vacant storage shed near the edge of town that he felt like he needed to check out. There was something there waiting for him. He was only going on his instincts, but they were usually right...

He stepped into the larger-than-necessary storage space. It seemed more like a barn... X 4.

He shut the door behind him and knew that something was wrong when it locked on its own. He heard music playing that seemed to come from all directions at once. He went to the middle of the area, ready to use a substitution jutsu if needed.

At least the music was relatively soft. Before long, he heard a voice singing to the music, with words that gave him a sense of dread.

So you thought you'd found the truth...
...But you did not understand.
Therefore you could not see the truth.
...Even with it in your reach.

Thought you'd finally seen the last of us, Didn't you?
But you still don't understand.
There will always be enough of me, inside of you.
...For me to be a part of you.

And I don't understand your Human Condition...
I must believe that we are gods! Yes.
Will let's you make out your own decisions...
...And I can influence them all!

So you think you found the truth!?
Told to you by a friend!
But that friend, he holds a god...
...That he does not understand!

And you all still journey on...
...and seek the answers to it all...
...but only to us must you pray...
...in order to find the one true way!

How faaaaar you'll go and where...
...Isn't as important as where we CAME FROM.
So whyyyy would god make man...
...and subject him to our influence?

(the voice splits into two, one deeper, one lighter, alternating between the two)

For, if we are real, truly Hell Exists.
Can you be saved?
When, the light that's true, it comes in many shades...
Can you see the truth?
Will... you be saved? Or... just die in light?
We are the truth!
Because, if you pick wrong, then your life be lost......
Your soul is MIIIIINE......

And I can clear your human condition.......
I'll save the souls of you all!!
Help us one day, we'll rise together!!
And we'll show you that we are gods!
So then we'll understand your human condition...

[sung to the sound of Human Conditionby Wither]

The music cut off and the lock on the door undone. He heard a voice, the same from the song.

"So... do you accept my offer? Will you be saved in the glory and honor that we, the Dark Balacri, can give?"

Lunar walked out of the door with one sentance.

"Screw you, i'm going to get some food."

He shut the door and put a seal tag on the door. No sooner had he done that than he heard Filth, his dark balacri, banging and snarling on the other side. He wasn't getting out for at least five minutes. Plenty of time to head to the Ramen shop.

"This is going to be fun..." Lunar said with sarcasm as he headed toward town.

.......waiting by the doorway of the ramen shop was a stranger in a white coat. The only part of his face that was recognizable were the eyes, the rest being covered by a purple cloth wrap and his white top hat. Those yellow, yellow eyes........

Voice of Thought

Posted by Croabadrin Sep. 1, 2009 @ 7:00 PM EDT

I've been putting it off... On this post you can find out the closest to what I can show you of what the Existants sound like. Look up the song next to each name yourself, I can't do it all myself. Those who's voices cannot be found in a song are designated as so.

Angroy: Sound of Madness [Shinedown]

Delek: Electro Gypsy [Jellyfish]

Grice: 343 Guilty Spark. (Halo Character)

Diablo: Any Crazy Frog Song [Crazy Frog]

Frear: Lion. (animal)

Sleytra: Lulu. (Final Fantasy X Character)

Maiya: Boom Boom Boom [Venga Boys]

Kalet & Serene: Cosmos [Tatu]

Leraga: Ballroom Blitz [The Sweet]

Slander: DARE [Gorillaz]

Veylord: Sandpaper (actual sandpaper)

Breyna: Still Alive [Portal]

Tara: Yuffie (Fianl Fantasy VII Character)

Sobek: Blow Me Away [Breaking Benjamin]

Cacara: Cortana (Halo Character)

Rapael: We're Not Gonna Take It [Twisted Sister]

Bracken: Human Condition [Wither]

Raivaerra: Miranda Keys (Halo 3 Character)

Baal: Any deep-voiced Irishman (Ireland)

Zeorad: Sniper (Team Fortress 2 Class)

Gaiya: Rikku (Final Fantasy X Character)

Xia: Kos-Mos (Xenosaga Character)

Rewa: Yuna (Final Fantasy X Character) (unstressed)

Marley: Lighter 343 Guilty Spark (see Grice)

Those with (character) in the description means that the voice is near to a character from a video game, rather than a song (for those too dense to see that).

Happy Birthday to Me! ^^

First Day + Existant Update

Posted by Croabadrin Aug. 20, 2009 @ 4:24 PM EDT

Well, it's the first day of school, and the lineup doesn't look too bad. I even get out an hour early every day now. To commemorate the non-horror that this day has been, I shall introduce all the
new Existants.

Gaiya (love of plants): A green reptile girl. Lives in a frozen over-world, but has a reminiscence area of her original home in the jungle.

Xia (love of sea life): A black and white aquatic girl. Shares the frozen world with Gaiya, and also has a reminiscence area of her original home in the ocean.

Raivaerra (Hear no Evil): A sister of Sleytra, but with purple feathers. She is a technical whiz and prefers space as her environment. She doesn't show much emotion. If she does not trust you, you cannot hear her voice.

Baal (See no Evil): A rather large fish-guy (think a fat version of the swamp-thing). A jolly guy who sounds sort of Irish. If he does not trust you, you cannot see him.

Zeorad (Speak no Evil, Panic): Another relative of Angroy, he can disconnect his entire body, and not just the arms float now. Disconnected leg wheels can form lines to either side of him and act as really fast tank treads. He also has four blades on his face instead of two, with an extra pair at the sides. He has a love of guns, and if he does not trust you, he cannot hear you; however, he trusts everyone instantly, so that hasn't caused any problems yet...

Savvanha (Timidity): Another dragon girl, like Tara, but taller and less adventurous, as well as having different facial features (they are not close enough to be called sisters). She comes from the city of Raine (guess what the weather always is...?), and was homeless until we took her in. She is the first to have virtually no self-defense or combat abilities, with only being able to change the color of her scales to any basic color (not camoflauge, just one color at a time). She was nearly mauled by a group of gangsters during the time that we were trying to pull her out. Her original home was burnt down when she was younger, killer her mother and the 'friends' who appeared to have gone insane and caused the fire in the first place. She loves Bob Marley's songs.

[Edit]

Marley (outburst, surprise): The newest member of the male group, he is also a rare humanoid (as males seem to be more prone to non-humanoid, and vice-versa for females). He is a tall but skinny robot, with three eyes; one large and one small on each side. His arms end in cyclinders, with no fingers: instead, he sprouts two pairs of long metal strap-like appendages from the sides of each arm, which act as his hands. He seems friendly enough, and loves explosions.

Imaginary Real Stuff

Posted by Croabadrin Aug. 2, 2009 @ 3:04 PM EDT

Oktochjubar
Status: Unreal

It's that feeling you get when you're walking alone at night, and you feel like you are being watched. The Oktochjubar came from deep underground in Jerasha, and managed to work its way to this dimension. It can survive off of plants, but usually chooses meat, be it animal or human. It can transform itself to fool prey, but never into a living being. It can act as a plant or other scenery near a target. If something seems normal, yet out of place, that's the Oktochjubar.

Bonikkeron
Status: Real

A resident species in Jerasha. They vary in appearance, but all share at least one trait: They are all nothing but skeletons. They can be humanoid, quardrapedal, or otherwise. Nearly all of them are completely silent, and the few recorded in history to have spoken voiced their opinions only as necessary. They are reclusive, and don't socialize much more than selling things at market stalls. Although many of them have appearances commonly associated with evil, such as having horns and/or sharp teetch and claws, very few have ever done anyone any harm, and even then they were not without reason. Outside of seeing one at a market or passing through a city (rarely), they are very rarely seen. They don't take being followed kindly.
More Soon...

1, 2, skip a.... wha?

Posted by Croabadrin Jul. 3, 2009 @ 7:15 PM EDT

Lunar stood outside of the dark purple door with Runeas... surprised.

"..."
"..."
"...Lunar?"
"...Yes?"
"...what just...?"
"...I don't know."

They stood there in confusion. The last thing they remember was opening the Spinra door... but now here they were... in the middle of the room... with the final door before them. What?

"It's quite simple, really."

The familiar voice came from behind, and the heroes turned to see Gemsra. Lunar finally remembers where he's heard his voice before: he sounds like 343 Guilty Spark, from the Halo Games!

"Spinra influenced reality for you."
"...come again?" Runeas asked.
"Spinra is able to do what Grice does. He can literally do anything. You're fortunate that it turned out to be advantageous."
"Lunar, do you have any idea what he's talking about?"

Lunar didn't hear him. He was thinking. Remembering...
In his battle with Croab himself. Croab had tried to use Grice, but he helped him with a time warp rather than hurt him. Does that mean that both Grice and Spinra want him to beat Croab?

"Lunar? You all right?"
"Oh, yeah. Don't worry about this. Wihat we need to concentrate is Bracken."
"Indeed so. Be wary, as he is dangerous... far more powerful than anything so far, save for Spinra. I wish you luck..."

The image of Gemsra disappeared. Runeas turned to Lunar and shrugged, before walking over to the door. He looked to Lunar for confirmation before opening it. As they walked through, Lunar could have sworn that he'd heard a snicker somewhere in the room...

--------------------
---------------
-----------
-------
----
--

They found themselves in the same arena as with Breycken. Standing at the other side was Bracken. The two heroes stood still, watching carefully for movement.

Bracken raised his head, Blue eyes shining across the arena. The glow was eerie, and felt weird. Suddenly, the eyes' glow changed to red, and he charged. He ran across the field at a frightening speed, and as he got closer, Lunar noticed that he was significantly larger than any of his brothers. He drew close and prepared to ram...

and Lunar and Runeas jumped away as he ran flat out into the wall. They stood at either side of him, ready for anything. Lunar was the one to be attacked, by another charge. As he expertly flipped over him, he caught a glimpse of his eyes. They were...

...pained. Not from ramming the wall...

Lunar landed and threw a Kunai into Bracken's back. He roareed in pain before slamming his arm into Lunar, faster than he could react. Runeas shot a flame at Bracken before catching Lunar and throwing him up.

'how did he...? I've always wanted to try this combo!' Lunar thought to himself as he righted himself in midair. Runeas threw six kunai at Lunar, all tagged with explosives. Lunar extended a Lunar Ribbon, directing them just off target from Bracken, instead choosing to surround him with the explosives. With a few handsigns, Lunar showered Bracken with fireballs before falling, detonating them all. Bracken was instantly enveloped in terrible flames from all angles. Lunar landed next to Runeas, and stood tall. Very little could withstand such an attack, but they still had to be careful.

Suddenly, Bracken came flying out of the smoke, towards them. They dived aside, and Lunar noticed that Bracken wasn't aiming for them. He kept going, into a roll, and then a run away from the smoke cloud.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!!!"

The voice rang out from the cloud. The smoke didn't clear, but the heroes could feel that someone was there.

"HOW MANY TIMES... HOW MANY TIMES DID I TELL YOU TO NOT REVEAL YOUR EYES TO HIM. HOW MANY TIMES DID I PUNISH YOU FOR FAILING THE PRACTICE. I'LL DESTROY YOU FOR THIS!!!"

A beam of red energy shot out from the cloud, headed for Bracken. It was great aim, heading straight for him... and stopped.

Another being stood in the path of the beam. It stopped at her outstretched hand.
Meela!

"Lunar, Runeas... Bracken is not your true enemy! I just found out... it's him and another. He's been with you all along..."

Another laser shot from the cloud, aimed for her heart, but Bracken scooped her up in his arms and jumped the wall.

Finally the smoke cleared, and their next opponent was revealed.

It looked like Antisora from Kingdom Hearts, dark swirling mist included. It stared them down, before opening its mouth in a wicked grine filled with sharp white teeth that shone out from the darkness.

"I suppose you're wondering why I revealed myself....... It's simple. You saw him reach out to you, through his eyes. After that, I knew you'd figure it out eventually. Why delay?"

Lunar stood, a bit stunned.
And something clicked.
Why was he stunned? This shouldn't have been a surprise.
Come to think of it...

Why did anything in here surprise him?

From the start of this place, he'd been feeling a huge mix of emotions that he shouldn't have. He hadn't been reacting to stuff like he normally would. What happened?

His last surprise of the day came when a scream echoed across the arena.
From him.

He looked around in real confusion. His own confusion. He hadn't screamed, yet one had come from him. he then noticed something behind Runeas.
He dove for his friend, pushing him aside. Just as they hit the ground, a blade moved through the area that he had been in. When they looked back, they saw a horned beast fade away with a pained look on its face.

"That... that was Filth." The dark being from before spoke up.
"What?" Asked Runeas, although Lunar figured it out almost immediately.
"Lunar's Dark Balacri. I had him altering you and your emotions this entire time, Lunar. To weaken you. But... it seems that this fight will be fought with all our strength."

"NOW... FIGHT ME. FIGHT THE DARK BALACRI, RANCOR. FIGHT THIS DARK GOD BEFORE YOU!!!!"

To be continued...
