Astrixinch: Astrixinch entered the room expecting to find only wreckage like the outside this castle and the rooms he had passed. However inside this room was another man. Cautious, he silently summoned his Blade Staff in the case this stranger wanted trouble. "Hello?"
Hanxtan:Hanxtan, after realizing that it is a highly probable fact that Saix was killed by Sora, starts to head outside Addled Impass. He walks out of the Room's door and hears someone talking to him so he shifts his eyes and turns his body toward the stranger. "Hello. I am going to ask you to retract your weapon now so put it away."
Astrixinch:Astrixinch feels that this stranger's thoughts are focused on death. Not bothering to delve into who's death (probably his own) he replies "I don't feel like making this easy for you. Stand and fight." his challenge offered he shifts his grip so that one hand is at either end of his staff. he then makes a leaping attack at the strangerr, slashing with the right blades.
Hanxtan:Hanxtan, after hearing the word fight, summons Daark Star he then proceeds to rapidly spin it in his hands the Dark Star now looks like one solid peice as Hanxtan seems to barely be spining it. He Astrixinch's attack starts to grind with Dark Star's rotation causeing sparks to hit both of the combatants in the face. Hanxtan starts to push forward toward Astrixinch.
Astrixinch:Astrixinch spins to his left out of the way suddenly throwing Hanxtan off balance. When he regains his momentum he sees not one but five men surrounding him. All of them swing in perfect unison at verying hights at Hanxtan.
Hanxtan:Hanxtan starts to fall but catches himslef before he hits the ground. Noticeing the clones that are circleing him he forms dark star into a Two Handed Long Sword and starts a rotational strike.
Astrixinch:As the dark star passes through each clone it seems to fizzle out of existance. the last man in the circle blocks Hanxtan's sweep and pushes off him back a few feet. While Hanxtan is focused on the real Astrixinch he forms another Hilucination Clone behind Hanxtan Which stabs him in the calf. (even though it isn't real as it hits Astrixinch activates Hanxtan's pain receptors for that section of his leg, making the stab non damaging but still painfull) while hanxtan is exclaiming in pain Astrixinch makes a sweeping blow towards his head.
Hanxtan:Hanxtan is in Excruciating pain but still trys to keep a clear mind. Hanxtan absorbs Dark Star and takes the blow . When Astrixinch's weapon meets Hanxtan's head a loud thump is heard that rings through the halls of Castle Oblivian. Hanxtan is now dazed but manages to gather himself enough to grab Astrixinch's ankle and pulls him down to the floor. Hanxtan now summons Dark star in the form of a giant axe and brings it down toward Astrixinch.
Astrixinch:As the axe comes down Astrixinch smiles. when it meets his head he seems to fizzle away! the clone at Hanxtan's back gives the Longinus a twist or two then he too fizzles away. Suddenly Hanxtan is being ping-ponged left and right by two Astrixinchs.
Hanxtan:Hanxtan is shocked but shakes it off by killing the two ping ponging Astrixinchs. Hanxtan absorbs Dark Star again and just stands in the middle of the hall with his arms crossed.
Astrixinch:The Ping-Ponger on Hanxtan's right staggers in pain and a large rip appears on his robe. he looks up uncaringly and surrounds himself in more clones.
Hanxtan:Hanxtan unabsorbs Dark Star and Enlargens it to be as wide as the Halls and throws it with full force toward the big group of clones. "Join me and I will stop this battle right here and now." The dark star still hurles itself toward Astrixinch.
Astrixinch:Astrixinch realizes that since it the Darkstar has a fixed mass, making it that large will have made it thin and brittal. He gives it a solid whack as it aproches and it shatters into millions of shards. "I'm having too much fun to stop." he states emotionlessly. Suddenly a small army of clones is charging Hanxtan.
Hanxtan:"Oh I see you have found one of my weaknesses." The shattered peices of Dark Star dissapear from the ground and a spiked sheild appears in Hanxtan's hands. He then charges the clone army. As he gets to the front of the army the spikes grow larger and he continues to run at them with full force. He is very cautiouse to not let any clones behind him and constantly looks around him for any sighn of the real enemy.
Astrixinch:Suddenly it looks to be over. there are no Astrixinchs to be seen. As Hanxtan looks slowly around suddenly a semi-transparent something walks out of Hanxtan. It looks to be another nobody, hood up. It turns to face him and removes its hood to reveal Hanxtan's own face. It then becomes fully solid and summona a Dark Star. "Die." it says in his own voice.
Hanxtan:"Very clever. I understand what your truely capable of." Hanxtan now absorbs Dark Star and proceeds to punch his own clone.
Astrixinch:Every hit connects solidly and Shadow Hanxtan gives a grunt of pain and shadow energy shoots out the back. After a solud pounding the clone Absorbs his own Shadow Star. "Ouch" he says "your turn" then he begins to pummel Hanxtan
Hanxtan:Hanxtan puts his hand up and trys to take control of his clones. Takes a hard blow to his chest If the clone is made of Metal either real or illusionary, then I bring him to his knees. If he isn't made of metal then I form Dark Star into a short sword and start to slash at him but every second the sword fades from one hand to the other.
Astrixinch:The shadow Hanxtan dodges a sword strike that tears a chunk out of the wall. behind is a castle power line. Shadow hanxtan forms shadow star into a sword then attaches the sword to the wires. It crackles to life as lightning dances up and down the blade.
(OOC: the wires are actualy dead and still in the wall. But I'm using halucination to make this happen, Just to increase the pain)
Hanxtan:Hanxtan backs up and starts to do something to the Dark Star. When his back reaches the wall Dark Star is nowhere to be seen. As his clones charges toward him letting out a battle cry with a deadly weapon in his hand Hanxtan looks as if he is throwing something at the clone but nothing can be seen. Just as the sword connects to Hanxtans chest he crys out in pain and puts up his hand. Hanxtan's clone raises his weapon to strike him again but before he can the clone stops in mid strike and drops his sword. While Hanxtan is still in horrific pain he barely summons the strength to get up. Hanxtan is breathing very heavily and starts to twitch his fingures around. His clones lets out a sharp scream of pain and out of his stomach burst Dark Star flys out and makes its way into Hanxtan's Hands. Hanxtan laughs maniacally.
Astrixinch:The real Astrixinch walks slowly around Hanxtan in a circle every so often a clone drops out behind him, eventualy a circle of 6 or 7 clones surround hanxtan is a wide circle. Each of them plant their staffs into the ground and step forward. A translucent beam of energy shoots from the top of each staff and connects to the next one in the circle. when the circle is complete a Gloming translucent circular wall stands floor to ceiling trapping Hanxtan. then the Real astrixinch steps through the wall. "no more interuptions".
Hanxtan:" I can deal with that." Hanxtan absorbs Dark Star. "Did you just want to talk or do you want to continue resisting me?"
Astrixinch:Astrixinch shifts his grip so both hands are at one end. He begins weilding it lake a sword attacking and talking and the same time. "Resisting? No. Assaulting? yes" he says making a swipe at Hanxtan's knees.
{{OOC: all it is, is if you try to walk through it I lock your muscles so you can't leave this area. (I can only affect things through direct clone contact}}
Hanxtan:Hanxtan jumps back and watches Astrixinch while he talks." Assaulting huh? Well I can live with that." Hanxtan makes another little ball and throws it toward Astrixinch.
Astrixinch:Astrixinch thrusts his staff into the ground and vaults up and towards Hanxtan, he uses the ball of solid steel to kick off of and get some extra hight spinning his staff like a propellar over his head.
Hanxtan:Hanxtan stands staring at Astrixinch, knowing that as Astrixinch vaulted off of the ball it liquified its self onto his foot, Hanxtan stays calm while liquid steel starts to incase Astrixinch's leg bringing him to fall to the ground with a loud thud. "Do you wish to join me now or should I continue to incase you?"
Astrixinch:Now fully incased Astrixinch can neither speak or move. Suddenly a clone appears behind Hanxtan. It is obvious Astrixinch is weakened, as the clone is semi-transparent, and seems to fade away near the legs. "I... join... if... truth..." he gasps (Its hard to breathe in metal) "come... bow... head... read... mind..." the clone points to Hanxtan's scalp
Hanxtan:Reluctantly Hanxtan forces himself to trust Astrixinch, he then bows his head so that the he can gain Astrixinch's trust but keeps him incased so that he may continue to control the situation.
Astrixinch:The clone holds his hand slightly over Hanxtan's head and suddenly small snippets of memory, flashes of recollection, come unbidden to his mind. Then Astrixinch starts. His clone's hands go into Hanxtans scalp and memories explode into his mind. The Old Organization. His sucession. His exile. The return to the castle. The fight. the clone pulls his arms out, filckers once, and dissapears.
Hanxtan:"I have followed your terms, now will you join me? Do you now see I that my words hold truth?" Hanxtan uncases Astrixinch's head and stands waiting for a response.
Astrixinch:Astrixinch looks up his expression never having changed through the entire fight. "You do not lie, and your cause seems worthy." He nods. "From this day on I pledge my allegence to Hanxtan The Logical Tacticion, and his New Organization."
