Featured Characters
" no...she couldn't have...it's gone!" saffron said with a panic as auburn was curious as to what was causing her such panic so she asked curiously what the problem was " I don't understand what's wrong did she take something of value?" saffron rose up turning her attention to auburn as she began to explain the situation " vanilla took one of the most prized possessions the very first black dust sample." auburn stood puzzled but not phased as she responded " okay that's really interesting and all but i don't see how that's a big deal you yourself are a user of this dust and use it like any other normal person so I fail to see what's so scary about it "saffron sighed and responded to her bluntly " that's because I'm TRAINED I'm one of the only few who have tested this new dust and still remained somewhat sane after use." the key word sane struck auburn with confusion " wait sane? what exactly are you trying to say here?" saffron patted the bed as she sat down with auburn and told her a secret she was keeping " this new black dust is different from every other dust so far...just like every other dust it was founded here on remnant and there for bound to it however, what separates it from other dust types is that it has one particular ability." auburn getting a bit nervous but still decided to have her keep going " and what is this particular ability? "
" black dust has the power to control ones emotions and turn them into pure power and rage, those who have a strong will can easily overcome the influence of its dark desires...however, in some cases a person can have conflicting emotions that can over power such will and tap into the persons deepest desires and priority in those over everything soon the person no longer knows what's right and wrong they only power and a passion of vengeance putting them in a type of berserker state." auburn begin to feel a bit uneasy hearing this but decided to still question her " that sounds terrible but why is it that you can use it so easily without fear?"
" because there is nothing left to take control of...after that incident a long time ago with my parents any type of emotions or desires were non existent. what you are looking at now is nothing but a shell of my former self and my only true desire is to make a new family however, i don't let it have priority over everything i keep my feelings and desires as one none scattered. auburn i have a small favor to ask of you." auburn responded to her reply " yes? " " i want you to fight against vanilla instead of verde ever since we came across this jade person he hasn't been himself more angry and determined to get answers out of her like a scorpion has attached t his back and constantly spreading poison as it slowly eats away at him and I'm afraid if he gets a hold of that black dust he wont be the same verde anymore he will be a completely different person one that will do anything to get what he wants, darkness will cloud his heart as it used to cloud mine."
auburn nodded dusting herself off and stood up " I'll go head after her then reports say she was spotted over at the airship dock what are you going to do? " saffron rose up from the bed and whipped her hair back as she spoke " I have to meet up with my other two teammates at the training grounds it seems her teammates have requested a battle with us." auburn raised a brow and responded curiously " you don't think it could be some kind of trap do you? they could be intentionally separating you guys as part of a plan." saffron shook her head and spoke " I don't think so there's only four of them here and it doesn't look like they really planned anything out other than stealing the crystal...we don't have much time we need to head out now! " auburn nodded and headed out to the right as saffron took the left hallway heading to her teammates with a speedy effort.
meanwhile back at the nursery room verde continued to stare out of the closed window thinking hard about a lot of things in his life, it was then suddenly a shadow figure appeared next to him with a bit of a womanly figure but everything was in all black making it hard to tell who the shape of it was, the figure began to talk to verde directly " poor poor verde...keep this up and you will eventually fade to dust." " what the heck do you want this time " verde replied angrily " oh its not about what i want its about what you want...and what you want is power the strength to crush all of your enemies before you, i can assure you that you aren't going to get it sitting in this dump of school." verde glared at the figure and responded back in more anger " you dont know a dam thing about me! stop talking nonsense!!! " the figure spoke calmly responding to his words " i know everything about you from your birth all the way up to now, all of the struggles and pain you have went through it all fuels your hate and you try to fool everyone with your kind words and actions, but deep down inside you know that one day you might end up killing-" " SHUT THE HELL UP!!! " verde said as he slammed his fist against the wall.
" in the end the time will come when you will call out to me i will then politely answer your call and fulfill your desires no matter what they may be, light cannot exist without darkness...sooner or later you will realize that you will need the power of darkness just as much as need the light that you are so desperately trying to cling to." the figure slowly then fades away with a feint smile on her face as if though she had already won him over verde stood there thinking deeply about her words while looking down, he then shook his head regaining his composure as he spoke " she's only right about one thing i'm not sure if i can handle vanilla the way i am now...i need some help " verde hops out of bed still dressed in his damaged clothes and rushes out of the room heading towards where his father was to hopefully get something that could help him fight equally with vanilla.
meanwhile at the arena saffron had reached the destination alongside her other teammates staring down the other three members of VRTU, in the center the princess of fluff roka livia munching on a medium sized cotton candy as the others watched her confused and curious saffron finally spoke up " are you sure you want to do this? i mean have you ever even been a referee before? " roka finished her cotton candy and smiled brightly as she responded " of course i have this fluff isn't just for show you know! " saffron replied " i see but what if they try anything funny? " roka smirked an evil smirk somehow still looking fairly innocent " oh don't worry if they try to do anything drastic i will crush them with my fluff...any objections? " roka's words sent a chill down the teams spines as they all replied "n-no ma'mam! " roka giggled and stood firm and got into position as she spoke " O'k even though you people are attacking you have requested that this be treated like a vital tournament so i am here to ensure that request, your aura levels will be displayed on the screen and whoever runs out of aura first loses...however, any type of frontal assault after a match has ended will not be tolerated and will be punished by the fluff personally so now the two teams must decide who fights first and vice versa."
" o'k so who's going to go first? " saffron asked " i'll go first i think its best if you go last saffron since verde isn't here it would be in our best bet to let the second in command go last" teal replied. " i have no objections with going second i kind of want to see what we are up against anyways " she says with a grin as her and saffron step back and take a seat letting teal walk up forward preparing for battle, runa crystal from the opposing side as she smiled and spoke up " im curious can you tell me what your way of fighting is? " teal looked at her in surprise but decided there was no harm in telling her so " im a close range brawler " runa smiles as she gets in position " oh good then i get to test this out on a person worthy of combat then....YANG MODE! " runa's hair suddenly changes shape and that of the color white, her eye pupils change to the color red as part of her hair covers her left eye and she seems to have a smirk on her face this time as a red aura could be faintly seen around her rising slightly. runa smiled as she gazed at teal and started to speak " surprised? good this is my semblance trickster it allows me to change my persona giving me a new personality and boosting 3 stats while all others are reduced, now shall we begin? "
teal immediately gets into battle stance of martial arts as runa grips her fist strengthening power, roka looks at both fighters and raises her hand up in the air " fighters ready? begin!" as she pulls her hand down both teal and runa dash at each other clashing their fist causing a medium sized smoke screen to appear in the middle, after a few seconds both are shown sliding out of the smoke as runa leaps into the air preforming a back flip as her feet touch a wall she uses that wall to spring from it and launch herself towards teal with a flying kick. teal gets in defensive stance as she catches the foot with her right hand and tosses runa back behind her, runa quickly regains balance landing on her feet and quickly dashing forward to her throwing out a flurry of fast punches keeping her on her guard. as the pressure kept being applied teal was getting pushed back step by step until she lost her balance runa took the opening and gave her a charged punch to the stomach knocking her back and sending her flying as she crashes into a wall taking heavy damage.
" teal! " amaterasu called out worried but saffron touched her shoulder and shook her head as she replied " dont get so worked up shes a tough girl, she will Definitely get back up it takes more than a single punch to take a tank like her down." teal stood up slightly bruised in battle position staring her opponent down, runa smiled and made a cocky remark " oh so you aren't a third rate hunter at all it takes a lot of armor and aura for someone to take my punch head on like that...this is getting interesting! " she throws two swift punches as orbs of fire are launched directly at teal, teal quickly activates the weapon on her right arm as a shield forms from water dust blocking her from taking damage. " now it's my turn " teal dashes forward quickly advancing towards runa, runa smirked throwing a quick punch but teal immediately sidesteps out of range from the attack and throws out a swift kick to her back sending her flying.
runa regains balance and slides across the floor as she dust herself off and stands up however, as soon as she got up she was surprised to see teal in the air as she swung her left hand and landed a direct blow to runa's face knocking her down and sending her sliding across the floor once more as she hits a wall. the girl stands up slowly and wipes the blood from hr mouth as she smiles and speaks " i never expected to fight someone as good as you....i'd actually like to continue this fight but i think its about time i ended this! " runa uses the remaining portion of her aura to boost her attributes to the limit. she dashes forward at an incredible speed that surprises teal catching her off guard as she is quickly punched and knocked back further than before, she regains her balance before getting hit with a barrage of punches with the final punch knocking her into the air runa then leaps into the air and lands another direct hit knocking her down to the ground. teal slowly stood up as the damage she was getting was really starting to show as she breathed heavily staring down her opponent left with no other option she decided to use her semblance, she stood perfectly still and placed her left fist in her right palm standing up as she closed her eyes and began to glow aqua blue.
runa was confused at what she was trying to do but smirked and gave a snarky remark " heh looks like you have run out of ideas and want to just take your beating then so be it! " runa dashed forward charging up her right fist for one final attack, as she got ever closer she swung her fist in the direction of teal lading a direct hit with this runa believed the fight to be over however, teals body turns to water and breaks apart right before runas eyes surprising and shocking her that she hit nothing but a water clone. wide open to an attack teal appeared right behind runa as she turned around and unleashed a strong forward palm strike to her chest as the sign of aura depletion showed on her body and she was sent crashing into the ground. roka smiled as she raised her hand up to announce " runa has completely run out of aura and is unable to continue fighting the fluff is happy to say that Teal Necros is the winner! " teal sighed and slouched as saffron and amaterasu held her up and brought her to sit down as she fell unconscious. saffron smirked as she looked to the other side " well that's one down two to go amaterasu you're up next."
