Out of Character (Yes I'm taking the same place. A shame to waste such a good setting.) (Due to everyone else being DQ'd because of suckage reasons, Aincrad gets to battle for third place against Megami. Problem? Fight me.)
Location: Saul Kada, sixth level Version bonus: Off Posts: 1 intro, 5 battle Set version: 5 Judgement: Single
At the lowest sector of Saul Kada lay a sea of digital magma. Scattered throughout are islands of varying sizes from pebble to building, but all at the mercy of the molten tide. Stalagmites jut from the ocean serving as icebergs to the tectonic rafts. While stalactites litter the ceiling sealing off the chamber and giving the entire catacomb a feeling of hopeless dread.
The only stable location in the entire area is the laboratory. Nestled into a wall on the southern side. Where scientists tirelessly monitor the fluctuations of not only the digital lava, but the real worlds as well. It houses the only exit out of the area, as it's so nested no normal navi may teleport in or out.
It's here that the combatants meet. Outside the facility and exposed a constant barrage of volcanic temperatures.

It was hot here!
Unmistakably hot! It was that kind of hot that made you sit down for a while rather than wipe the sweat from your brow and keep walking. However, that was what precisely Megami did NOT do…and so she kept traversing into the reaches of Saul Kada’s odd terrain. Her eyes reflecting the occasional glow of the streaming Magma, and her hands were slightly reaching out for balance, but not too careful to touch the scorching stone affected by the heat. She would have been frowning, but if she was not in wonder about the actual area she was walking through.
“I wonder if the heat is like this in Xen-kun’s world as well?”
People would ask if she was crazy if it was all she was thinking about at such a time, but how could a maiden in love not? All she ever thought about was the perspective through the eyes of her loved one. It was always enough, even now, to make her smile as she walked along the cavern’s more safe paths. The pieces of stone like rocks to skip across along the flowing river as she had already trimmed her dress to a high thigh length skirt because of the occasional scorchers to the edges.
She stood upon the only one true stone slab that was high enough to consider “enduring” in this dreadful heat. She made sure of this with a simple stomp of her foot to see not even a pebble chip away unlike the rest.
“If it gets too hot…I suppose we can use an element to fight in this temperature.”
The idea? The assurance that he was here to fight with her? Maybe it was even his voice in general that was like a melody to her ears?
Any one of those was reason enough that made Megami smile once again in this dreadful heat and nod her head. Readily, she looked around awaiting for what most likely was her last opponent in this strange arena.

“Very well!”
She agreed happily!
Megami had simply stood there smiling...smiling...more smiling....obviously she did not seemed threatened and took everything quite literal.
“Hmm...” she paused lifting her right index finger to her cheek, “I am sorry. How does one...forget what they have seen? Is that too a special feature of a NetNavi? Perhaps a special option? I can delete mail, delete voice mail messages, delete videos like that embarrassing one on Xen-kun’s P.E.T. where the women were-”
“MEGAMI-CHAN!” Xenneth cried before she could say anymore, “It’s an expression! That guy! I think he’s our opponent!”
“Oh!” Megami smiled, but this time bowing afterwards, “Well met, sir! I cannot honor your request, but I may honor you so in our battle to come!”
The goddess, as innocent ever, taken a step back and added another. Her right hand reached outward as she turned it accordingly until it was grasping yellow vapors that slipped to and fro across her fingers. There was a shining light across their form as they had burst outwards. A sleek form of a golden staff pole that was topped with a single circle with many adorned triangular shapes hooked to it appeared. It was Megami’s khakarra and she met the edge of the Navi’s shield with a simple turn of the weapon.
“LET US BEGIN!”
Megami spun her staff quickly back counter clockwise attempting to knock the shield upward from below with the top. The goddess’s echoes were loud enough to reach through the caves over the bursts of steaming lava and heat. Her elegant footwork going backward as she kept on balance and spun her body around attempting to follow up her first Khakarra strike with a second that would be a powerful thrust. A complete twirl of her body and a swipe was like the precision of a beautiful swordswoman as she made a decisive combo that would send any boulder, cube of metal, or titan reeling with her putting all her strength behind it.
Xenneth, quietly, watched as he clenched his P.E.T. faithfully.

*CRASH!!!*
“MEGAMI-CHAN!”
That was painful, and Megami felt every bit of it.
The female NetNavi had pulled herself up slowly finding herself in an unsavory predicament. Not only was she on the receiving end of her attack, but also near the edge of the terrain. The female NetNavi’s lips twisted as she could see just how close she was to being defeated. It would have made Xenneth worry...and she did not want that. Her eyes had gone to her opponent, herself feeling the authenticity of fear. It was not of her enemy, but the thought of losing.
“He can copy my ability...”
“...so we’ll have to use an ability that’s not Megami’s.” Xenneth thought, “Megami-chan, I have an idea...”
Megami smiled. “Yes...I know, Xen-kun.”
It was an indescribable feeling to understand one another so perfectly. It was enough to make Megami smile and her body begun to glow. Her heel twisted slightly as if one press of the foot sent out a shockwave all around her body. Sweeping around her in a rapid motion from left to right was a ring of light that surrounded her body. Near the edge of the platform, she did not see the lava, but just Latin text swirling around her sight.
Fearlessness, determination, trust...all the things that pushed her ahead in the face of an unknown enemy that used almost everything that was their being. Almost...for Megami knew that their bond could never be emulated.
“He may have my power...” Megami said as she raised her hands before her body. Two spheres of light appeared in each palm as she readily prepared her assault towards the towering foe. “...however, he cannot use it the way we can! Divinity Barrage!”
Megami’s hands swung outward in a rapid manner as she begun to send forth a powerful wave of spheres at her opponent from where she stood. Her distance, in her opinion what she called perfect, as she kept away from the hulking NetNavi. The spheres of light expanded as they flew on course towards Aincard and Xenneth had a front view seat for the light show as he stared at the screen Megami was safe barraging her opponent from where she stood.
“Distance...” Xenneth’s thought passing through his head as he reached for another chip while Megami sent forth the powerful barrage of spheres.

“Power to overwhelm his defense...defense to defend against his power...and a distant attack...”
Xenneth whispered this to himself as Megami let out a barrage of the spheres in a rapid swing of her arms and a spin of her body. There was a sweat droplet that broke and many more considering the heat, but she kept her eyes open and body swaying freely as she spun around like a hurricane swinging debris. Soon though, he finally had gotten close! Megami seeing the dawning body of Aincard did not let up her assault as she hoped that the pelting spheres would do damage. His weapon forming in hand however gave her pause.
“That Claymore!”
She recognized it and so did Xenneth...who figured everything out in a moment.
“MEGAMI-CHAN! I GOT IT!”
The boy cried in his epiphany while slotting in a single chip. Megami felt the rush of data and instantly knew what was to come next as Aincard swung his massive copied blade. She leapt upward with perfect form as her body begun to glow. The downward slash of the sword had been coming next, but she seemed to not break her stance as Megami focused all her energy until her NetNavi icon let out a bright piercing glow. The blade connected with her arms as it brought her down to the ground.
Her arms were strong...as hard as diamonds at that moment as she endured the weight and force of the weapon!
The female NetNavi’s body had cried in agony, but was also rushing in haste to let loose the power that built up. The stalagmites that dropped from above had start to rain around her as dust covered up her surroundings, and some even start to drop true to land upon her. However, they were shattered and destroyed becoming nothing more than dust as more stalagmites pierced the ground from below.
These, however, were made of crystal.
“Double Soul, Jewel Soul!”
Megami was surrounded by a circle of uneven crystal in height and length that surrounded her form. The many pieces of sparkling rock had been around her as if she was a meteor in a crater. Still, she fended off the claymore with all her might as she held her ground with her head adorned by a crown of sparkling clear diamond and her body fixed in place by a one piece suit plated with the jewel. Her arms, shoulders, and knees were cuffed with the glisten rock and her hair was a pure white that sparkled with bits and pieces of the broken diamond dust.
“I SHALL NOT MOVE!” she cried out loud with a mimicking attitude of a stubborn royal entity, “DIAMOND TOWER!”
The stubborn spirit of a certain Navi also entering her mind as she lifted her right foot while guarding against the deadlocked claymore attack. With a massive stomp of her right foot, Megami had sent a path of piercing diamonds that launched themselves from under the terrain to the underside of Aincard’s foot. Megami holding her breath at that moment had launched herself upward to finally deflect the sword and rid herself of the deadlock in an attempt to break free.
Her breath heavy, damage sustained, but yet she had ignored it and stood strong in her one spot...just as she said she would.

“It’s not her being delusional...but realistic...”
Xenneth had watched with as Megami had glared at the incoming NetNavi’s attach while she braced. They both were telling the truth: just like any Stone body or any hard boy, NetNavis were often rendered very immobile with their superior defenses. It was also one of the tragic traits of double soul: One power would increase, but the other would be hindered. Megami had given up mobility and speed for pure power and defense to meet the dreadful goliath of a NetNavi.
Now she would have to see it through.
The shockwave that traveled towards her body had been ripping apart the diamonds formed before her. The female NetNavi barely had anything to counter it. As the attack closed in, Megami was left with little to no options as she crossed her arms before her chest. The diamond padding along her body had begun to grow thicker and larger as if it was alive and responding to her will to defend their symbiotic host. The shockwave hit her full force as she had taken the brunt of the damage.
“I have to keep here...and...I can’t stop!”
*CRASH!!!*
Megami stomped once more!
The ground had become broken before her, ruining the continuous path of the shockwave that traveled to her. The Goddess had leapt up once more as the stalagmites had begun to race around the battlefield that she was fighting on. The attempt to ward off the goliath NetNavi was desperate it seemed. As she sent the pieces of diamond around the field, it all seemed as if her shots were random, all which would surround the NetNavi and the battle field with the towering diamonds that cut the right they were on until it was almost gravel.
“I’ll stop you here!”
Another large stomp sent a diamond tower directly head until the rock was divided into three. Megami had stared towards the NetNavi. Not once had she moved from her spot as she had endured! Not once did she intend to digress from her mounting towering attack. With one final stomp, a giant monolith of diamond had risen before her as if to blockade the way between herself and Aincard.
It seemed to be her final defense...

“Ack!”
Megami was ensnared!
“AHHHH!!!”
A dreadful scream roared across the volcanic catacombs. The Goddess was so busy with her preparations that the counterattack was out right ignored. The pain was more agonizing than she could imagine, even in this form! Her eyes had gone to her shackles that she taken full force. Megami dropped to the ground on one knee: a terrible stance for any boxer if you knew what it meant. She gave deep breathes that were wracked with fatigue and pain.
“Megami-chan!” Xenneth called, “We’re almost there!”
She lifted her heard. She could see, but it was in a blur...then clarity...then a blur? Was this what it meant to nearly pass out? It was familiar as a feeling; especially when she fought other opponents like this. Lifting her limbs, she had gotten a hold of the spikes and chain hooks. She could only get two, one in each hand, as they proved to be quite weighted. It figured for a NetNavi of that size that she was opposing. She grasped them not just for momentum and balance, but the next phase of her attack.
“Yes...” she wheezed, “...this...will have to do.”
She seemed to have had tried to set-up her last defense...the monolith. It seemed she was attacking desperately and wildly. It all seemed to arbitrary and trivial! However, anyone who knew Megami and Xenneth knew things were never what they seemed from the crazy duo. Where the brainy little peasant was like a mastermind to inspire, The goddess was ironically the faithful servant who simply carried out his will through their understanding. In that moment, Megami had looked at the battlefield; riddled with cracks, fissures, and a massive monolith that drove into the terrain like a spike to split a rail...so was the massive fate train that was Aincard: soon he would be derailed.
She breathed gently as her bangs curtained her eyes, “Here we...”
...and he cried with all his might. “GO!”
[smear:f25eff]“PERFECT-SYNCHRO!”[/smear:e6de19]
“THIS-IS-SPARTAAAAAA!!!”
Patience...faith...reliability were three words crossing before blue determined eyes with hope...light...perseverance.
Two golden rings of Latin text circled Megami in a diagonal rotation in a speed reminiscent of saw blades. The chains were lifted with all of Megami’s might as her roar was like the cry of an enraged Athena. The chains were crossed in her grasp into a twisted tie as she attempted to bring them up with all her strength and bring them down in a whip that aimed to not only drive the monolith down into the terrain but also slam Aincard into the very terrain itself with thunderous force equivalent to a lightning bolt that would make it crumble.
The impact would turn it all into a memory except, if Megami was correct in her precision with Xenneth’s measured theory, send her sailing away on a small platform of molten rock.

Out of Character As usual my judge points are for terrain acknowledgement and usage.
Megami Style----: 26/30 Artcltion: 15/20 Balance--: 18/20 Length---: 6/10 Emotion--: 10/10 Judge----: 6/10
Total: 81/100 A 65/650
Once again few flaws but your looove your description monologues. I keep having this issue when I read your posts where I'll get partway and either have to reread something(or it's written twice) or take a small break before continuing. Maybe just a me thing so I didn't really dock much for it. The communication between Xen and Megami continues to be a strong suite and something I wish most Netop/Navi partners took advantage of. I also didn't know she was Jewelman's friendbuddy.
Aincrad Style----: 20/30 Artcltion: 15/20 Balance--: 5/20 Length---: 8/10 Emotion--: 6/10 Judge----: 4/10
Total: 59/100 C 35/350
I enjoyed your length. The very brief nuggets of history were abruptly inserted but found a sweet spot to not detract from the fluid flow of the over all post. Which was also a big plus. I never felt I needed to pause mid post to recollect or reread something.
You lost many points on balance because you used Darksoul despite not being negative karma, duplicated attacks from enemies of past battles(and absorbing knowledge from existing foes). I would've docked you points on your last battle for these but I did not know you couldn't actually do them until I scoped out your stats and learned of your neutral status and reread your RP profile. If these are things he can do you should list this somewhere.
