>>6333146“Nowhere left to run! Begone!” Doom shouts, drawing his electrically-charged right back. And as he swings, you change, shifting from your Primal to Archon form.
“Chaos Magic: Spacetime Shift!” you shout, activating your magic. Shifting you, your Crystal Star, and Doom's positions. Shifting Doom to your space, you with your Crystal Star, and it with Doom. Now his back's to the edge, your Star right next to him as you clench your fist. Activating it, causing it to burst and explode in a blast of razor-sharp crystal fragments the length of your arm. However, right as you do, suddenly, YOUR position is shifted again! Doom swapping places with you, as dozens of crystals lance into your body. Stabbing into your chest, shoulders, arms, and one the size of your forearm even spearing you right through the face, right through your left eye and out the back of your head. “Ghlurk!?”
Coughing up blood, your vision going fuzzy you drop to your knees, everything going dark. You can feel your body going numb, the familiar feeling of Death creeping in as your senses fade. Your last sensations are that of feeling yourself collapse, falling face-first to the arena floor, dead.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17rpm63gm-4“Chilli! No, you can't be dead!” a voice, a familiar voice calls out. One you recognize. “Please, open your eyes!”
“Megu?” you ask, slowly opening your eyes in confusion. Only to find yourself floating in the Null Realm over your corpse, looking down at yourself. Looking at your slain body. “Did I...?”
“Da... DAD NO!” your daughter, Meloka Wolbach's voice suddenly calls, your eyes widening in shock. Looking around, you don't see your daughter. But what you do see, after a few moments of looking around in confusion are the Vox cameras in the stands, pointed at you, and realize what's going on. You can hear them, somehow. Can <span class="mu-i">feel</span> them. “Daddy, please-! You can't be dead!”
“DADDY!” your son, Kazuburo also calls out. You FEELING their fear, their shock, and most importantly, their disbelief. They can't believe you're dead, they REFUSE to believe it. And their Faith in you is giving you another shot! And so, with a thought, you use it. Your contingency plan you'd created after being impaled by Death and surviving, after discovering the truth of what you are.
“Death Magic: Death God Rises.” you say, closing your eyes as you feel your spirit get drawn back into your corpse. Feeling your mind and body merge once more with a surge of divine power. The pain in your body now not gone, but distant. Barely registering as you rise to your feet, peering up at the still-falling figure of Doom with your one good, undamaged eye. Now the real battle begins.
