Character(s): Urd, Xemnas Content: As Urd contemplates her time in Paixao, the Superior finally makes his move. Setting: Elysian Fields Time: Week 25, night Warnings: Xemnas is a douche.
Everything was going to be alright: for Xemnas, that is.
Preparations were complete, if a little unusual. The Dusks lurking in the darkness weren't quite cooperating, nor understanding the plan Xemnas had in mind, but they would not mess things up - even Dusks knew of consequences.
"You've forgotten, haven't you?" Xemnas asks as he steps out from a portal behind her, a grin on his face. Too caught up in her thoughts, perhaps? Did she not remember the nothingness that could encompass this world, all the time, simply waiting?
If she were to attack him, the Sorcerers would make themselves known in an instant, boxing her the same way they had done in the past.
Urd gasped at the sound of Xemnas' voice, knowing immediately who it was. That voice would be burned into her memory forever. She jumped up off the ground and whirled around to face him, gritting her teeth.
"I was just waiting for you to make your move," she shot back, narrowing her eyes. Immediately and by instinct, she stretched her hands out, summoned spirals of flame flaring towards him. So caught up in her desperate need to put him down, she didn't even consider the presence of the Sorcerers until it was too late.
Wasting no time, she flew up into the sky at a break-neck speed, her clothes changing from the casual dress to her battle uniform: a skin-tight red suit with the usual flare. She spun around in the sky and immediately flew toward him, hands into fists aimed right at his face.
"And yet you do not seem prepared," he replies with a laugh, not even flinching when she makes her attack. Did she remember nothing? Foolish goddess. He will play with her for now, but what she doesn't know is the ace he has up his sleeve - or rather, in corridors of darkness.
Before the fists can connect, he's sliding into a portal, again reappearing behind her, his expression never changing. "I wonder what memories have had you distracted so. Perhaps I may have a look?" He raises a brow. Yes, he's mocking her. Even he would not taunt a goddess if he didn't have her weakness known. Now he was certainly confident.
The field below exploded with her impact, luminescent grass flying upwards into the breeze. Urd skidded along the grass, turning as she went backwards. She didn't even spare breath for a retort, instead moving towards him yet again. As she flew towards him, black and white wings spread up from her back, revealing the form of her angel, World of Elegance.
She knew the sorcerers were coming any second, but if she could get a big enough spell off before they subdued her magic, maybe she could end this. She flew past where Xemnas was, shooting higher and higher into the sky. As she flew, she began the recitation, her hands making the requisite movements.
"Spirit of Thunder, who races in the sky and shakes the ground and the air!" She just needed to stay away from him long enough to summon the spell...a little further... "With your great power, become thunderbolts in my hand, you the power that smashes everything!"Storm clouds quickly formed in the empty sky, rumbling with promised violence. Urd turned to face the ground far below and
( ... )
He frowns when he doesn't get a reply from her, other than conjuring of the lightning. This spell of hers could attract attention from anywhere, and while he didn't doubt he could handle company, he hardly wanted it. No one was to know of her abduction relating to him in any way -
- but then, how many of this city really knew of his existence?
His body was surrounded by Nobodies, dying instantly as the magic surpassed their barriers and erased them from their so-called life. Xemnas shields himself with an arm over his face, feeling the grind of the spell breaking beyond his protections and cutting against him. He grits his teeth.
Enough.
As other Nobodies continue to take the brunt of the magic, Xemnas disappears. In his hiding, he observes his flesh, scorched from where lightning licked against his side.
"Go," he tells the Dusks.
Urd now faces the eye of the storm, where nothing stands in her way - not an enemy in sight. That calmness will not last.
