God Yet Lives

Astarte blushed and turned her eyes to her feet.
That fat idiot is probably the one I let escape...
"I'm sure Mortal couldn't have stopped somebody getting in there," Astarte said quietly, lifting her eyes but still blushing. "The only ones defending it were weak hollows.."

"In my defense, I was otherwise preoccupied," Mortal said, "Besides, it is your fault he is still alive, Senthose."

--

Noct starts to laugh as Lilith flips out over doing nothing entirely important, and proceeds to continue ignoring Samus in favor of beating Zelda's ass, "I believe this is called team work, quit trying to make it seem like someone is cheating, John."

Yue just shrugged.

S"Preoccupied with what, stalking the girl in the horrible dress? I told you he would get away if you didn't finish him off. Had I known you were going to let him get away, I'd have eaten him myself."
===========================================
John<You know what? You're absolutely right.>

*John shines a light on the screen & suddenly there's two Zeldas smacking both Euryale's & Noctis's shits.*

John<Teamwork really is a precious thing.>

Kujaku laughs having been silent the entire time.

---

"Maybe you should have eaten him"

Noct shrouds the entire room in shadows, and turns the TV pitch black, Noctis continues playing, able to see through all of the darkness.

--

"I was going to talk to her about something, then I got distracted, then it got crowded an I left."

John<That doesn't get rid of the effect of Mirror World, it just stops me from making any more. It's still 2:1 in my favor.>

*He gets up, tossing the controller on the couch. He then removes his glasses & starts polishing them.*

John<I'm going to go get Lilith's things, if that's all right with you.>
==========================================
S"That's great. Aroma, help me make webs to hold the sand back. Did anyone manage to salvage any furniture?"

*His tentacles start digging caves near the treest holding the dunes together, depositing a quick-drying white fluid as they go.*

"Senthose, you are a walking hentai waiting to happen."

Noctis gets up as well, taking off her shadows, "Sure, I'm going to get another slice of pizza."

--

"What furniture?" Sab asked.

S"Rugs. Bean bag chairs. Drapes. I don't care."

*Before he can strangle Yue, something flies overhead, dropping red feathers all over the place. When they hit a tree, they shatter it into pieces. Senthose grabs Aroma with a tentacle & pulls her out of the way when one is about to hit her.*

A"Is it one of the people from Hell?"

S"It looks similar, but I don't recognize this attack."
=======================================
*When John puts his glasses back on, his head disappears. Then his neck elongates, being sucked inside of them. The rest of his body meets a similar fate before the glasses seem to crumple in on themselves & vanish.*

E"That was highly disturbing."

"Very"

---

Yue grabs Astarte in much the same way without the tentacle action.

"That thing smells nasty."

*Taiyo goes back to the Hollow, the claws on her feet making clicking noises as she walks.*

"I guess I'm not done with you just yet."

Kite: <By all means.>

Aera: <Dammit people, we're trying to be civilized here! He's hurt because one of your friends broke the alliance!>

*She tears a Garganta opened and fucks off.*

Kite: <Now... now I kinda feel bad.>

Iris: <Now look at it! Who do ya think has to put up with all this stuff at the end of the day? Sure isn't you, no sir. I do.>

*Iris quickly scurries along before the Garganta closes.*

*The Hollow has regained enough movement to prop herself up on her elbow.*

<And you never will be, so long as you live. It's best to just give up now.>
============================================
*A Hollow like a giant red hawk with 4 wings hovers a few yards above them.*

<In the name of His Majesty Lord Barragan...surrender or die in obscurity!>

S"Who died & made you King of Hueco Mundo? Oh, that's right, nobody, because when Barragan died it made ME King of Hueco Mundo."

<You are an unworthy King. But it will be easy enough to put His Majesty back on the throne. Once you have been slain, the Rightful King of Hueco Mundo will be reborn!>

*Taiyo kicks the Hollow in the face.*

"I'm not giving up so long as I have a reasn t get up each day. Something you're going to have trouble do for awhile."

<How many times do we have to go over this? First, you're worthless, & second, you don't scare me.>

*Aera exits out to the desert and sits down, sulking with her arms around her knees.*

=====

*Kite turns to Kira.*

Kite: <Should we have helped them...?>

*Iris soon follows and sits next to her.*

Iris: <Hey... are you going to be okay? If it makes you feel any better, just forget about my wounds.>

*Taiyo steps on the Hollow's chest, digging her claws in.*

"Yet here you are lying beneath me. And half of your pretty face burned beyond recognition."

Aera: <Shut up. I don't care about your wounds.>

*She looks away, but not without Iris noticing the expression of concern on her face.*

Iris: <Ah, so it's about those Soul Reapers, then...>

*Iris looks at the ground.*

Iris: <Well, we don't necessarily have to do exactly what they say all the time... if we grew strong enough, we wouldn't have to do what any of them tell us to.>

*Iris shrugs.*

Iris: <Like, perhaps... the Segunda Etapa.>

"This sounds like a personal problem, you know, people keep wanting to kill you Senthose."

"A lot of people wanted to kill Barragan too. It didn't end well. Except for that time it did."

<You dare to mock His Majesty Lord Barra-->

*The bird Hollow swoops upward & narrowly avoids a purple Cero.*

"I do. So why don't you fly off & gather the rest of your Reject Army, so we can clean this up quickly?"
=======================================
*The Hollow points at Taiyo's face, paralyzing her with a flash of white light. Then she pushes her off.*

<Have I ever told you how much I LOVE payback?>

"You've made a lot of enemies Senthose haven't you?"
