She Wants to Rule the World

[kursetheseeds.livejournal.com]

Characters: Ultimecia and anybody looking for a fight
Progress: Ongoing
Summary: The heroes have come to slay the Sorceress
Location: Plains of Lindblum
Date: September 1st, 1804
Warnings: Fighting. Pain. Possibly gore. Maybe more stuff, we'll see.

On the plains outside Lindblum, a war awaited. Another part of the war already being raged at the city - the leader of it all, the architect of this chaos, the one who desired nothing more than a world without anyone, a world to herself. A place where she could be alone, unbothered and unpersecuted.

She'd been denied that. She'd been denied Time Compression, and for now was settling for the best way to rid the world of insufferable crawling nuisances - sheer, outright massacre. The city would fall, the center of life on this world, and she would expand outward to greater distances.

The combined effect of magic and steel brought down quite a few of their targets, though the rest were now just activating the spells being cast. "Edge, watch out!" Rydia spoke just in time to duck, as a Fira spell was launched in their direction.

Cissnei slid onto the ground, Rekka in hand, narrowly dodging the same Fira spell. "I heard you needed help," she said to the two strangely dressed people, now her allies.

Edge nodded as he deftly dodged the fire. He paused from the battle but a moment to address the stranger, "We are a little outnumbered."

More pleasantries would have to wait as he whipped out his katanas swiping at the nearest of their foes.

Rydia flashed a quick smile at their newfound ally. She didn't have so much pride as to shirk help when they were in obvious needed of it. "You heard right."

She didn't get to say more than that, though, since a mage directed Blizzara at her. Though quick and endowed with Shell, Rydia winced as she could still feel the cold bite into her. Retaliating, she sent forth Comet at them all once more.

Cissnei zipped past the pair, running straight towards the next wave of mages. She flicked her wrist and Rekka went flying into a wide, low arc. Before she caught her weapon, she had managed to knee a nearby mage before diving to avoid a Thundara spell.

While Cissnei assisted with the frontal assault, Reno and Rude had gone out of their way to maneuver themselves into a flanking position so that they could take the black mage forces by surprise. Neither one of them was exactly equipped to deal with magic users, but Reno still had access to his pyramid attack which they figured would buy them some time before the mages realized that they could assist one another by breaking the energy field that it created from the outside.

As Reno shot off one pyramid after another, Rude rushed in amidst the shuriken and magical blasts coming from the front line to deal some up close and personal damage to the faceless enemy.

Edge grinned at the skill of another weapon flinger, but he wasn't about to be outdone. Seeing a few more mages out of the corner of his eye, he tosses two more shurikens into the fray without the slightest glance to ensure they had scored a hit.

A smug smirk on his face he readied himself for next attack.

oh it's so on like donkey kong

"Pay attention," she calls out as she runs past, deftly throwing her shuriken vertically at a mage that was preparing a spell very close to Edge. She pulls the weapon out of the sorry mage that once was and pushes forward, continuing to distract them while Reno and Rude pummeled the onslaught with their pyramid attack.

Rydia rolled her eyes at Edge's smugness, but the mages soon distract her once more. Even with the extra help, there were still plenty to go around and plenty of spells to dodge. The Summoner managed as best she can, but she cries out when a Thundara spell struck her. For a moment, she can't do anything but fall to her knees in pain, vision clouded with bright white spots.

"Edge, cover me!" She concentrated, needing a moment to summon....

"I've got it!" He yelled.

Showing off would have to wait.

While normally covering was part of Cecil's repitoire, Edge wasted no time turning an eye towards Rydia. Spying her about to get smashed, he rushed to her side flinging two shurikens at the mages opposite her while slashing the two closest.
