BROB.T.Y.I.Y.A. Pt. XXIV & Official RP Thread-The Grand Stage.

"Shall I start at the beginning, or just the relevant point?"


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

"Yes. After watching you all since being freed thanks to those wonderful fools, I have grown very found of your little group. As such, I am fully willing to help as best I can, even giving direct guidance."


------------
"Would this have any potential negative effects on the the seals construction?" Shiki asked.[/quote]

"None you do not wish. It is only an aspect of your power, nothing more."

"Either ones fine," Mana said

"What do you mean by 'freed' and who are 'those wonderful fools'?" Shiki asked.

"I'm mostly worried about the energy processing limit," Shiki said.

"Very well then, I shall start at the beginning." standing up, he offers you a cup of tea and a small chocolate on a small white soccer. "Here. I meant it when I said it was a long story, so I feel you should have refreshments for the tale."

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

"Oh? No, I suppose you were simply Yuki back then. The shapeshifter and the schoolteacher. They allowed us to spread outside our worlds, to see all there was to see. We gained power, so much power, but now knew what to do with it. That's why I'm here, no questions asked, no hidden agendas, no half-truths, to help you save the world."


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

"You need not. We shall handle the Prana if you deem it to great a drain."

Mana takes the refreshments.

"Thanks," Mana said

She then waited for the story.

"While it's tecnically accurate using freed to describe dimensional travel is not exactly common. Also isn't saving the world technically your species goal?" Shiki said.

"Maintaining them would not by it self be a problem. However averting too much energy from maintaining reality seems unwise. Honestly the best option would be to get the worlds to shut up and stop complaining about a bunch of dead people, but they never listen unless I'm threatening to unmake them," Shiki said.

"It began ages ago, so long ago that putting a number to it is entirely pointless. I was born from the ruler of the realm, my father, who named himself Omega, The End of All. Pretentious and boastful, but he was also near invincible in battle, and it soon became his name rather than his title. From my mother were born two hundred and twenty children, and of them, I was first to hatch.
I became my fathers pride, along with my sister Thane, and he taught us his skills. In time, we grew invincible, our family ruling the island where the greatest creatures dwelt. At the time, I would have been in the top ten amongst several hundred beings, each veterans of thousands of battles."

*He stops, takes a sip of wine, and gazes coolly into it.*

"And then my father made his abominations. Blasphemies against nature, an insult to his friends and allies. I rose defiance against them, and nigh half of the others joined me in my protests. We fought, and I was struck down. From then on, for several hundred years, I was placed beneath the island, in the deepest pit below the caverns, and made to wait. No cruelty was inflicted, no torture. I was fed, cleaned, given crisp air and ample lighting.
But I was left alone, away from everyone else, trapped, locked away from friends and family. In time, I grew to hate my undue imprisonment, to hate my brothers and sisters who had stood against me, my allies with whom I had fought great battles with. And above all, I hated my father.

Time passed, and I grew restless. But even in imprisonment, I did not grow weak. No, in fact, I grew stronger. You can thank my parents for giving me such fine DNA. After centuries, I broke free. In retaliation, I unleashed the Dragmas, vicious beasts that breed like rabbits, and whose skin is tougher than most could harm. As they fed, I fled, and found refuge in an unlikely ally. We journeyed together, and I told him of the battles I had fought, of the wars won, of friends and family lost to a father who had betrayed us all, yet kept many on his side through trust and power.
We made many legends then, but they do not matter to this tale, so I shall skip them. Centuries past, milennia, and in time, we went beyond the realms, into the darkest realities, into the pits of Hell itself. There, I met my ally's employer.

Setting aside gaining trust and work, I gave to my ally the one thing he desired above all else. I gave him the one thing that would break my father like nothing else could."

*Now he smiled, and downed his cup in a single go, licking his lips and sighing contentedly.*

"I gave him my mother. Oh, if you could have seen the wrath of my father then, it would shake you to the core and never let go. Well, long slaughter short, we killed everything, all of my fathers armies and allies, those who had stood against me, burnt an entire exaverse to ashes. Still, my father is not so easily beaten unfortunately, and his wrath was great. In the end, he crushed us all himself, breaking us to the last. My ally he sent spiraling to the depths of True Hell, to be forever locked away in the Silent Pit.
For me, he took my name, and cast it from existence itself, shattering my very identity. Then, he inflicted a curse on me, to never have friends, to never have goodness again in my life, to suffer as I had made him suffer, to never know peace or rest for the remainder of eternity."

*He sighed again, and leaned back in his chair.*

"And that, child, is an appropriately abridge version of how I became a black spot of eternity."



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

"It was, but we stopped caring after we came to understand just what that entailed. Saving every world is impossible, and some worlds didn't need us. So, we took to traveling the worlds, understanding the universes." he blinked a bit, and swished his tail. "Now then, about that wish?"



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

"Well, I see little reason why that should matter now. Allow me to simply say, that there is nothing that you will lose in their summoning."

"Two things. First your father sounds like an idiot. Second what were the abominations?" Mana asked

"I want to get Madoka's opinion on something first, but I have a question. Would it be possible to adapt your anti-entropy methods to maintaining the seal?" Shiki asked.

She then turned her attention to Madoka.

"Madoka do you know anything about the demons from my home universe?" Shiki asked.

"I suppouse you have a point. Anyway my other aspects are almost ready with their parts. Is there anything else that needs to be mentioned?" Shiki asked.

"Blasphemous falsities. Copies is hardly the right word, more like what you get when you melt plastic. Hideous things, whose description I refuse to say." he is getting angry now, his teeth grinding.


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

"Perhaps, but it wouldn't be enough. The energy required to use our method would be very inefficient if you want it to actually work."

"I do not."

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

"None at all. We watch, and shall be when the time requires. Until that time, oh lost soul amongst the damned."

"Sorry," Mana said.

"Although this does explain why you got mad at moms old shell," Mana said.

"So what happens if you attempt to cheat the curse?" Mana asked.

"Would it work as an addition to the other maintenance methods in the event that they prove not enough?" Shiki asked

"There's multiple kinds but I'm just going to explain one of them since the others are irrelevent. Demons are beings formed by the sixth imaginary element. This element is a force that reacts to the wishes of humans and creates a form and psyche based on human concepts and images. Basically its a random version of the wish system that tends to grant the wishes by making a spirit based on it," Shiki said.

"Sometimes the form resembles a human but it's usaully some impossible creature. Actually if the puella magi existed in my my universe the magi and church would probably consider you a sub-catagory of demons. They possess innate reality marbles which are basically identical to your worlds barriers, and their main ability is to create distortions based on the wishes and images that formed them," Shiki said.

"Creating a less random version of those things that would act as an alternate next stage for Homura, Azaka, and myself seems safer and more likely to work than trying to make a new existence from scrath, but I'm not sure if Homura would be ok with that. The first version Azaka spoke to claims that she wanted to die. So I'm not sure how the versions that Azaka got to help would react to this since it the transformation would change them so that the human idea of death becomes less relevent," Shiki said.

"This might also affect the other versions of Homura do to how the plan is set up," Shiki said.

"It would be enough to work, but Homura's scary when angry," Shiki said.

"So on average how badly would she react to this?" Shiki asked.

"Farewell till then," Shiki said.

"I can't" he says simply, shrugging. "It's not a 'Yes or No', it's a Yes, period. try stopping your heart from beating, or from eating. See how long you last."


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

"If you feel the need, then yes."

*Homura closes her eyes, and sighs sadly.*

"If she's already agreed, then I can't see her saying no to this. Still, I think it best that you do the wish now. I need to find Homura. My Homura."

"I have tardigrade level crytobiosis so I'm probably a bad example," Mana said

"OK let me give an example. What if you let yourself get hit by some kind of mental attack designed to make the target feel well rested?" Mana asked.

"Consider it a potential back up plan incase my prevous contingencies aren't enough," Shiki said.

"Azaka got three to agree. I have one more question. Should I limit this to just myself, Azaka, and Homura or make it a true alternate puella magi development path?" Shiki asked.

"Nothing happens. This curse is complete and total, encompassing all aspects of existence. Believe me, if there was any relief at all, I would have found it eons ago."


-------------
"Azaka got three to agree. I have one more question. Should I limit this to just myself, Azaka, and Homura or make it a true alternate puella magi development path?" Shiki asked.[/quote]

"I think it best you limit it. I had hoped the very idea of 'Witch' was gone for good, but it seems I failed. Let this be the end of it. Please."

"I guess that make sense. So does this mean your being forced to attack us or is this just your way of getting revenge?" Mana asked.

"Understood if anything it could be changed after the reset if its proven to be a not bad option. I wish that Azaka, the Homura's that agreed, and my self would turn into sixth imaginary element demons based on our wish, puella magi state, and witch form while retaining our normal form and minds instead of becoming witches," Shiki said.

"Both really. I may be forced into doing it, but that doesn't mean I can't turn that against him!" he says with a grin. "I take all the suffering I have experienced, and show it to others. Just a fraction of course, since mortal minds can't handle it, but just enough to allow them to know. You'll know too, soon enough. It's almost time, after all!"


-----------

*Madoka just nods, and the world inverts, twisting horribly for a moment into a wonderland of hell. A moment later, it settles, and you feel very changed and a little melancholy.*

"Why have you been waiting anyway?" Mana asked.

"Well I should probably get going. Anyway incase I don't survive the reboot goodbye and goodluck," Shiki said.

"Simple really! I'm waiting on the show to start. Really, she is taking far too long with this." he said with mocking indignity. "You would think that if she's going to save her reality, she would at least make the effort expedient."


-------------
"Well I should probably get going. Anyway incase I don't survive the reboot goodbye and goodluck," Shiki said.[/quote]

"Goodbye."
"Just go already."

"Actually if mom's doing what I thnk she is she's probably going to retroactively kill everyone by accident," Mana said.

Shiki nodded and vanished from the area.

-------

And still she rose a new born god seeing the truth of things.

"It is time," Shiki said.

A moment later Shiki allowed her soul gem to fully darken, and activate Yuki and Yosette's potential barrier. As this occured the Throne of Heroes was opened.

----------

"Good luck Homura. Good luck Len," Azaka said.

A moment later she caused her soul gem and began her transformation.

Len focused and attempted to enter the mindscapes of Azaka and Homura to play her part.

-----

Shiki looked at Rassilon and spoke

"Connection established commencing final stages of reality revision," Shiki said.

As she spoke reality began to twist until the Shiki on Galifrey and the Shiki ascending were the same Shiki. Shiki closed her eyes and began to focus on the barriers and their purpose in her plan

Homura's barrier based on her time power and nature as the 'Witch of the Mortal World' and Azaka's barrier of 'barriers and retreating' would be used to create the seal to bind the enemy and reinforce the dimensional laws.

Yuki and Yosette's potential barrier based on 'overturning fate', and her barrier based on 'a force molded by the wishes of humanity' would be used to reinforce the previous barriers.

Once her mind was focused she turned her attention to Len, Rassilon, and her self.

Len's dream manipulation would be used to project the new laws into the spiritual plane, the Time Lord time and physics creation would be used to engrave the barriers laws into the laws of reality, and her power and explanding reality would be used to expand the range of effects for the alterations.

This would then get combined with Nyarlothoteph's help to restructure reality and reboot the gigaverse.

Once her plan was clear in her mind Shiki began to focus on her power continously drawing out as much as she could at once.

"Well, that should be entertaining, if nothing else. If that's the case, I suppose you're no longer needed."

*Flicking his hand, Mana exploded in a shower of gore, before being crushed into a marble-sized orb of meat. Drawing it to himself, he balanced it on one finger with a grin.*

"Make this interesting, won't you, petite poupée?"

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

*A golden gate, wide as a continent, opened with a blinding white light, and from it came an army unlike any other. Countless beings, billions and trillions of them, in armour and dress, wielding weapons of legend. They came in dozens of forms, unseen before, in Beast and Monster, Lord and Soldier, Guardian and Scholar. Many came in several forms, of Saber and Lancer, of Berserker and Rider, shrouded from view or glowing with presence. Renowned rulers and unknown commoners, each a hero in their own right, and at their head a golden army of the greatest heroes to ever live.
They stood, an army of legends, to answer the call.*

*In the darkness, he sat, watching the worlds collapse around him, and laughed. He laughed long and hard, and his form split apart. Filling the darkness, his form became that of a great beast of fire, all consuming in its scope. He rose up, and gazed at the center of the fracturing reality, grinning madly.*

"Give me your all my dear, and I shall watch your play. Burn it all to the ground!"

'Wow you are an odd one," Shiki's voice said.

A single order was heard by the army of legends. The order was, 'Do everything you can to ensure that the plan is successful.'

Chains of time strecthed out across an infinity like a set of intersecting webs. One of Shiki's forms came into view soon after.

"Actually I'm just renovating. Fixing the damage done would have been impracticle otherwise. Fortunately there's a nearby fuel source," Shiki said.

"However if your looking for a play I have a few spare actors that aren't helping with the repairs. Well more like a phenomenon that thinks its an actor, but close enough," Shiki said.

A moment later Shiki used the second and third magics to gather every version of the Night of Wallachia. She then took a moment to combined them into a massive gestalt Tatari under her command. The living curse was given a single order, focus on the being with no name.

The phenomenon called Tatari began to flow though the area as it prepared to manifest the fears of the beast of fire, while also making them blood thirst vampires under its control.

"Their only good at horror stories, but they like to personalize their plays," Shiki said.

Once the word play was said Tatari began its initial manifestations.

"But of course! I wish only for the greatest entertainment child, make it worth my while!"

*The gathered heroes nodded, and in a great cloud of golden particles, they vanished. Immediately, the gigaverse trembled as they engaged the Bastard King.*

*The molten titan simply smiled, as its form was covered in nightmares and impacted by legendary weapons. All the forces brought against it tore into its form, inflicting countless curses and instant-deaths, staved off by its sheer power. Chuckling good naturally, his chest split open, and from it crawled a black mass with countless bloody eyes, which swarmed the heroes and Dead Apostles.
The God-thing licked its lips, and gave a bow, spilling still more of the chaos into the cosmos.*

"Interesting, very interesting. Show me more!

As the word more was said the gestalt Tatari began to remanifest more fears and rumors.

"Hey Nameless One I have question. What qualifies as good when it comes to your curse?" Shiki asked.

"Hmm? Well, my view of good is a little skewed, so it tends to be whatever the majority of civilization thinks is good. Or something like that, I was never actually told the specifics. For all I know, 'Good' could be defined by preschoolers. Which, I must be honest, I would not put past my father."

Shiki let out a sigh in fustration.

"Isn't leaving a curse like that up to a random vote really stupid? Also would your curse interfere if you were force to do something that might potentially be considered 'good'?" Shiki asked.

My wings curl in and I move into a dive and at the last moment flare them out as I join in the attack using my usual spiral pattern but this time its vertically oriented as I Spring skywards with my wings beating powerfully to launch me up to avoid the counter attack. My blood's pumping and my heart's racing as once more I'm involved in a battle. But at least this time I'm in a role I am familiar with, that of being support in combat.

"Most likely. Then again, I usually cancel out any acts of good with a million acts of evil, so the exact effects are a little unknown."


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

*Your shots slam into its side, and the armour on its body cracks. It roars loud enough to shake the room, and its armour explodes in a burst of fire. Without its protection, its true form is revealed. A huge skeleton, like that of a bull, with human arm bones attached to its back, the entire thing covered in a roaring fire.
The canine warriors leap back, and Amaterasu strikes with her brush, unleashing a new power. A violent wind fills the hall, blowing away the flames, leaving the skeleton form of Crimson Helm vulnerable. She charges in, and slams full speed into its skull.*

"Now is the time!" Chu barks. "Hold nothing back! Bring the monster down!"

*The canine warriors come together, and charge as one at the beast.*

"So if I were to say use you as a battery I should probably make sure that whatever your powering is an irrefutable crime no matter what it does just incase," Shiki said.
