VERY WELL. PREPARE YOURSELF.

::GLP grabs his scythe and gets up::

LET US FIND A SUITABLE AREA WHERE NO ONE WILL INTERFERE.

::GLP waves his hand and everything dissappears, aside from GLP and Reaper. The Arena is slowly replaced with a hellish version of a bamboo forest. The bamboo is obsidian, the ground is the color of dried blood. The only light comes from the magma that surrounds the forest-island::

WELCOME TO MY ARENA.

::Legion* charges energy in his scythe, and releases it several seconds later by slashing downward with his scythe. The "imprint" of the slash hurtles toward Reaper, propelled by the energy in his scythe::

*You'll know the difference between Legion and GLP. For one, Legion TALKS LIKE THIS.

*Reaper dives to the side of the energy bolt. He stands upright facing Legion.

"That's childs play. Try this."

*Reaper pulls back his sword and swings it in a X shape, unleashing bolts or fire, ice, lightning and energy at Legion. Reaper uses the distraction to put away his sword and pulls out his ultimate rune sword. It glows deeply after a long time of disuse. Reaper swings the sword and several bamboo trees fall down. Even some that were not hit by the sword were sliced in two. He waits for Legion's attack.

::The four bolts of elemental energy disperse harmlessly on Legion's daemon armor::

YOU FORGOT AN ELEMENT.

::Legion holds out a hand, palm facing Reaper. Energy, dark and evil, seems to flow from the obsidian-bamboo and gather in Legion's outstrechted hand::


YOU FORGOT DARKNESS.

::The energy forms itself into a sphere the size of a medicene ball, resting on Legion's palm. It fires itself at Reaper, gouging a trail a meter deep in the ground. As it moves, the obsidian-bamboo near it shatters::

FF stands up, realizing this is bad.
MMMM, now i wont grant any mercy anymore.
although his knee was chafed and ankle sprained FF still remained agile.
quickly throwing a knife at blarg, cursing at the fact he missed.
as a madman FF starts running at blarg, pulling out an enchanted battleaxe, then jumps up and brandish the battleaxe above his head ready to cleave blarg`s...

*Reaper doesn't move as the dark energy flies toward him. The ball is about to hit when Reaper puts his sword in front of it. The ball strikes the sword and is absorbed by it. The seven runes glow more intensely with the new surge of power. Reaper swings the sword at Legion with white magical flame behind it. An arc of magical flame speeds to Legion.

::Legion screams and falls to his knees as the flame hits him dead on. He goes on screaming as energy whirls around him::

JUST KIDDING.

::The energy swirling around Legion is sucked into his scythe, making it glow with malevolent energy. Legion dashes forward and slashes at Reaper with his scythe. When the two weapons meet, there is a small supernova of energy released::

INTERESTING, BUT IRRELEVANT.

::Legion blasts Reaper in the face with a bolt of energy and ends the weapon deadlock. He assumes his fighting stance::

*Reaper stabs his sword into the ground beside him and pulls himself up with it. His armour absorbed the damage. Reaper walks to Legion and attacks furiously with the rune sword.

::Legion dodges or blocks each blow except for one. The rune sword clangs harmlessly off Legion's armor, creating a small scratch in the armor::

OOH. NOT GOOD. I JUST HAD THIS ARMOR REPAIRED A FEW CENTURIES AGO. NOW YOU FEEL PAIN.

::Legion counterattacks viciously, knocking the rune sword aside and slicing diagonally across Reapers chest::

...testicles, from above...

*Blarg impales FF on the top spike of his poleaxe as he charges, dropping the butt to the ground to raise FF on the spike with his own momentum and then to slam him to the ground behind Blarg.


-->:twisted: -->__\ | /__-->

Unfortunately(for Blarg, anyway), he is unable to escape unscathed, FF's axe cleaves into his back.

"AAAGH!!"

As FF is lying there, the cold iron and silver inlaid Fnordite alloy blade rises, then comes down in a mighty stroke...

*A vague humming can be heard from the crystal in the middle of the arena. The crystal begins to pulse slightly. The end is nigh.*

*wraps crystal in a kilometer of duct tape*

Ha, ha, just kidding.

*Legion's blade clangs off Reaper's armour not even leaving a scratch or dent. The rune sword flies back into Reaper's hand and he swings at Legion with a great deal of dark power from the blade. Suddenly he gets an idea.

"Soon, you will die by this sword, even though solid items cannot penetrate your armour."

::The dark energy is absorbed by Legion, increasing his already near-limitless power::

WANT TO TRY THAT AGAIN?

::Legion focuses on his scythe for a moment and slashes Reaper again. The blade sinks into one of the arm joints in Reaper's armor. Blood drips from the wound, however, the blade doesn't penetrate that deeply; it doesn't have to. The Plague entered his body when the scythe blade made contact. Legion leaps backward::

HOPE YOU DON'T NEED YOUR ORGANS...

*Reaper grins.

"Nope, don't need them at all, they're just for show."

*Reaper swings his rune sword and makes it smash on the ground. A bolt of energy flies from the remains into Reaper's arm. A blade of pure energy that cannot be absorbed makes it's way from Reaper's hand. Reaper swings it at Legion. The blade goes through Legion's lower left arm and seems to do nothing. Legion starts grinning but is soon stopped when his lower left arm falls off from the slice. Reaper is now the one grinning.

"Let's see you defend yourself against this."

OH DEAR. IT'S A SHAME THE ARMOR IS PRIMARILY FOR SHOW.

::Legion's left arm is soon replaced by an exact replica, crafted of pure dark energy::

YOU SEE, I AM LEGION. I HAVE A THOUSAND NAMES. ONE OF THOSE NAMES...IS DEATH.

::Legion grabs Reaper's sword arm and watches with satisfaction as the limb dies, the skin sloughing off the bone, the muscle deteriorating, the armor rusting under Death-Legion's icy grip::

LET'S SEE YOU DEFEND YOURSELF AGAINST THIS.

*Reaper leaps back and holds up his arm and it regains it's flesh and life.

"Heh, I was once the Grim Reaper and I still hold one or two of his powers."

I TIRE OF THIS GAME, WEAKLING.

::Legion grabs Reaper by the neck with his Deathhand. Reaper struggles with increasing weakness as his veins and arteries collapse and his vertabrae turn to dust. Eventually, Reaper stops moving. Legion tosses Reaper's limp body into the magma::

ANNOUNCER 1: Well, Scott, I sure am glad we got a camera drone attached to Legion before he left! That was quite a fight!

ANNOUNCER 2: Yeah Bob, what a blockbuster! I sure don't want to cross that Legion character.

ANNOUNCER 1: Well, it looks like Legion is returning to our plane of existance...and what's this? It looks like Legion...

::GLP's soul finally regains control of his body, forcing Legion to the back of his mind, where he will remain until needed. GLP's body reverts to the way it was before::

GLP: What was that?!

::GLP glances down at his left arm. It's bleeding profusely::

GLP: Hm...might have to get that looked at...

::GLP stumbles back into the Arena Underground, into the Bionetics lab::

GLP: Um...gimme one of those!

::GLP points to a skeletal metal left arm. As it's attached, visions flash through GLP's head, unlocking another piece of his mind::

GLP: I think I need to...lie down or something.

::GLP heads back to his vault, unrolls a bamboo mat, and promptly collapses on it::

*A huge shard of ice strikes the middle of the arena, inside is the body of Reaper. The ice starts to crack then shatters as Reaper bursts out.

"I needed that ice, that magma was WAY too hot."

*Reaper holds the energy blade and will it to become solid and it reverts to it's blade form. Reaper sheathes the blade and goes back to his guardians and Fenris against the wall.

blasted! shouts FF, whilst bleeding on the ground he groans, i shall return....
FF respawns....
FF throws the rune axe to the crystal in the middle of the arena, shattering it to a thousend pieces flinging and cutting almost everybody in the arena. so where were we blarg?

*A blinding light pours through the duct-tape wrapped crystal. Everyone in the area looks away. When the light fades, the crystal has returned to it's previous state, minus the duct-tape, now glowing with an argent light from within.*

OOC: Not nice! *Shakes finger* Not nice at all!
