"No this isn't right!" Tidus backed away denying the reality in front of him. "No way my old man did this. No way he cared!" The place rattled a little. The piece of Sin that was there started to rage in anger. It pulled back into the darkness. Taking with it, their shot at weakening the current Sin.
Tidus started glowing in green energy. His eyes glazed over. When he became infected, had to have been when Azul was talking to the old man. Another check would have to take place after the current problem was done with.
"Fwoosh!" In a flash, Azul was on Tidus. Despite the fact he was under someone else's control a little, he was also at fault. Letting that chink in his mental armor grow big enough to let the enemy enter him. He was better than that.
"You stupid idiot!" He had Tidus by the scruff of the neck pushed against the wall. Azul wanted to kill the idiot. The only reason he didnt, was because of Yuna and Riku screaming and the negative mission rewards. "I was so close to getting it under control. We could have saved everyone!"
"Let him go Azul!" Auron said trying to calm him down. He was behind Azul with his hand on the right shoulder. Lulu grabbed from the left side. "It might be better this way. Dealing with that thing might have been more trouble than it was worth."

"Tch," AzuI clicked his teeth and dropped him to the ground. "Now we have to fix this the other way. Its now gonna be even harder to stop it. You just made him stronger. No way Sin will let that pice stay loose after seeing us."
"Ugh." Tidus grabbed at his head as Azul cleasne him and everyone else in the room. Everyone was fine but Tidus. So it begged the question, where the hell did it come from. "Kuff!" Tidus coughed up a piece of meat.
"What the hell.. the food now?!" Azul looked it over and checked it out. But it dissolved quickly. "Not any food we had on us. Where did you get that from?"
"The prison.. grab a piece.. ugh.." Tidus groaned. "Could have been a little more gentle.. geez." Azul stopped and tried to think of anyone else who had the food. No one came to mind. Especially since everyone mostly left everything behind. "I snagged it when .. we were escaping. Not everyone can eat metal like you."
"It will be fine." Riku said from the side. Her words didnt match her feelings. "I know we can do it."
"I will do it," Tidus said standing up straight. "I will deliver the final blow. I can.."
"Are you that stupid?" AzuI turned and looked at him snarling. Everyone was in danger because he ate prison food. Food from a psychotic force. "The whole point of this was to make sure Sin was stopped for good. The Sin spawn would be wiped away as well. Not to mention not to make Yuna and Riku a widow!"
"Then what are we going to do?" Tidus asked defeated. Yuna came up holding his hand with Riku. "Sorry, I should have been able to confront my old man better than that. And waited to eat. It just what happened with my mom yah know? And I was hungry." He looked at Azul.
Riku gave a look and nodded her head. Next was Lulu and Kimihari. Despite his wounds, Auron stood awake. He was healed as best as he could be. But his spirit was damaged.
"We are going to take him down." AziI turned to walk towards the path. He contacted his forces using Telepathy. 'I will do the final blow myself. Doing so will expel me from this World making it for I cant come back unless some conditions are met. I would be taking Sin with me as the Final Aeon. It does not belong here as it is. Do not interfere with what happens as I try something else as well.
Hilda: That plan is dangerous. When the last blow is delivered you will have time to say goodbye. I have no idea if it will work with what else is happening. But the others should be fine. That is the best I can do.
'What about Riku?' Anima asked.
'Most likely will remain here. This is what she has been fighting for all this time. A happy ending for her cousin and her people safe. With Tidus accepting both of them, I am pretty sure that is even more incentive for her to stay.'
'I will miss her.' Lulu said. 'But I can always pop back in, as well. So not to bad actually. This Yunalesca woman is a lot like Yuna. Very caring, but she has a great hate for Sin despite it being her father's fault it exists. Well, the people of Beville anyway.'
'I know. I will too in a way.' Ariel said. 'Maybe you can pull something out of you're ass to solve this.'
'Hehe, I will try. No guarantees.' Azul felt a disturbance and was glad he was whole again. The attacks from Indigo were happening more frequently but shorter. Every time, Azul received a bit more info from attacking back. 'Tch, here comes a problem again.'
'That was annoying. I even felt it that time.' Anima said. 'I think he messed up and couldn't hit you properly. Good thing we are ready to finish this.'
.
Final Battle-
.
Fighting against the waves of monsters was annoying enough. But they made it to the end. A few more control monsters made things bad. AzuI felt the end of the Timeshift right before he stepped in front of Sin. Which was good. Seeing the upgrades to it, not good. It was as if, the Traitor Users waited till now to do so.
Sin had Reaper tech in him. He was a giant of a creature. Scales covering his body entirely from head to toe. Long hair like that of a Lion. White from age or magic AzuI couldnt really tell. Weird tentacles from his back that looked like probes of some kind. Closer look showed Dark Eldar pumps. A Gauss Cannon on his side did not bode well. His eyes had symbols in them. Reaper configuration with the Imperial Aquila inside. It gave Azul a very bad feeling.
'This is some bullshit and a half.' Azul blinked in amazement. With Sin's high level magical output already, this was a bad omen. ' Last time I came across this monster, I thought I was really starting to think I was gyped on my Pather Power. Good thing it turned out to be so good. Just took a lot to get there. And A lot of ass whoopings and turmoil to get there.'
Hilda: Outside interference is coming your way. It is at the level of an Administrator. Lluvia is tracking them down now. So just focus.
A bunch of System messages came up that AzuI didn't understand. Even communication with the others were messed up. But not the one with Hilda.
"So.. me, Lulu, and Riku take on Jecht's main body. Kimihari, Yuna, and Auron everyone else will deal with anything that pops up. Everyone else will deal with whatever comes out around the rear." AzuI cast his buffs and got ready. Khorne was in his hand as Jaina was using Slannesh to deal with an uprising.
"Is there any way I can fight him?" Tidus asked.
"Yeah.. no." AzuI said not paying him any mind. "This stopped being your fight when you screwed it up a bit ago. Get in my way... and I will cut you down myself." He felt Riku glare at him. "What is it now?"
"Let him fight with you. In fact Auron as well. Me and Lulu will assist Yuna. Just in case anything happens." Riku said. "I think things will get really weird. This.. is .. still my call right? Things have not.."
"No.. they will get in the way. I rather they support for all the monsters that will come out." She knew better. One of the reasons things went bad was because of the horde of monsters that attacked at one point. "Fall back and.."
"Ahhhh!" Tidus shot pass in a rush. "He is my father not yours!"
"Tch, really thinking about just watching and let him kill him. It is only right to do so at this point." Azul mumbled. He shifted on his feet really thinking about it. His Aeons were in agreement. Anima was the most vocal about it. 'i mean, no sense in me getting jacked up.'
'I completely agree. They have a habit of not taking your advice. Or commands. Not worth the trouble.' Anima's voice was a little angry. 'Let them experience pain before we help. If we help.'
"Are you just gonna stand there!?" Riku asked upset. "Come on!" SHe grabbed his arm, but Azul threw her off. "He means well, but this is his dad!"
"And?" Azul's face twisted in a scowl. "You remember what happened last time? Or did you forget like Galtea did?" His Pather power wrapped around her. "I died and lost a good bit of things. Not to forget what happened while I was out in other places. Your allegiance seems to be else where instead of with me."
"I.. did not forget." Riku stared back angery. "It worked out in the end didn't it?!"
"Yeah.. at what cost?" Azul could feel the power of the Everchosen flare up. Barely restrained by his Willpower. The weapon of Khorne burning hot in his grip. "It is all ok if I take a loss but not others!?"
"That is not what I am saying at all." Riku clenched her hands tightly. "But you will be fine. You are a User. Tidus only has this one life!"
"Smack!" Anima appeared in an instant and smacked her across the face.
"You forget how many deaths he feels as a Pather." Anima power of Death engulfed Riku. "What do you think happens when any of us dies and he is around as well? You are such a brat. I am sick of it. You are not worthy of being a Companion of his. In fact.."
"Stop!" Ariel and Inferna grabbed her hand. "Just leave her be. We have bigger problems to deal with." The Duo dragged her to deal with a group of monsters that poured in from the side. Modified and deadly than before.
"This is not over Riku, I assure you." Anima focused on the monsters, venting her anger at them.
Hilda: Take out Sin. Nothing else matters right now. I can feel your anger. Do not let it cause the death of anyone.
"Arrrrro!" Jecht roared. It was one of pain as he looked at Tidus. He swung his clawed hand and reached out to strike at Tidus. The Gauss Cannon fired and took out Auron. Carryin him far into the distance.
Good news, it took out some monsters to. Sapphire and the Thessia sisters had their hands full as they barely got the way. Dona and the other summoners missed it as well. But two Aeons took a bit of it. They howled in pain as they died. Not unsummon but were no more.
"Thud!" It was to smack. Sin hand hit the ground missing Tidus who jumped away barely. Yuna had cast Hastega on him the moment he charged in. Hopeing he would at least turn away after getting called. It did not work.
AzuI didnt mind as he used Teleport to get behind Sin in the air. The World was so distorted, not a bit of it was around. "Your daddy was trying to give you a spanking it seemed. Seeing the cannon you fool, aggro needed to be held away from allies. Every death is on you." AzuI glared at Tidus as ran around in front of Jecht.
"Tch!" Tidus tsked and said nothing as he ran around up front.
'Adrenaline Rush!' Feeling the focus, he cut around the backside of Sin. He was laying a magical sigil on him. "Keep it up. Better he tries to break your fucking back then pay attention to me."
"Oh, whatever!" Tidus yelled back at Azul. He raised his hand and cast Cheer on himself. Charging up, he struck at Sin's cannon. "I am here to give you a little payback old man!"
"Ching," his sword scratched against the scaled the cannon. It cut through but didnt leave any blood or anything. He needed more strength to get through that armored hide. A gold light went around him.
Yuna was smiling as she cast some spells on him. Lulu cast a few next on him giving him a little more power. Riku cast a powerful wind spell. The Yuna, and Lulu then focused on the forces to the side. Yuna was firing a bolt pistol she received from Azul. Lulu using a Plasma Pistol.
"Rooo!" Jecht swung his other arm at Tidus as he ran up.
"Bing!" Tidus placed his sword in front blocking the attack easily. He slid back a little. Before the hand reeled back, he swung his sword cutting the fingers off. He watched as the fingers flew in the air and turned into pyreflies. They were purplish-green in nature. An indigo color deep inside.
"Sching!" A bright light shown. Causing Riku and Tidus to pull back. Azul did not like that. The fingers grew back instantly just mechanical. Reaper tech at its finest there. The open in the front, firing gauss blasts at the two.
System: $%^&#$%
Ignoring the stupid thing, AzuI continued his work. He slid down Sin's arm stabbing the sword inside. It cut through easily. Blood pouring out as Khorne devoured it. He cares not where the blood flowed, only that it flowed. The sword burned hotter increasing in power.
Considering he was still in his first form, Azul rather not waste time while dealing with his first form still.
"Ok this is nuts." Tidus dodged some more Gauss fire from the cannon. It flew into the distant as was a direct hit if not stopped. "Oh man!" Riku looked at it in horror. But the forces kept fighting.
"Reflect!" 2nd Azul appeared and pushed againt the blast. His entire focus was on the attack and changing it's angle. 'If I have no energy for later, I am just going to kill all of them.' He was angry and the Gauss was really powerful. 'I really want this damn thing for myself. I wonder how many Necrons they control?'
"Fools..." Sin reached at Azul on his arm and tried to grab him. He missed when he ducked out the way. "You.. can.. not.. succeed.." With a lift of his arm, Azul jumped into the air firing a few Flame Arrows. As he flew back, the fingers pointed and fired a five burst.
'Biotic Shielding!' The first 2 shots were resisted. But the other three made it through. A slight delay that caused enough spread damage to puncture through.

'Great, canceling my regeneration, that bites.' When AzuI landed a pagoda arrived. The blasted thing started spinning. "Tch," He jumped away as soon as it fired. It hit Jecht and bounced off into the air. "Shit!" Another pagoda, but pure black spun and absorbed it.
"Jecht.. you have to stop this. Braska would not want this." Auron said. He made it back covered in wounds. Sin turned to him and brought his hand down again. A very intimidating fist. "You idiot, fight it!" With a sideswipe, the hand was knocked away. Auron flew to the side from the recoil. Blood spilling on the ground dissipating in an instant. "You were better than that before. Got weaker in your old age?"
Auron taunted Sin stabbing at the man's pride. AzuI felt Jecht rise to the surface more at that. He was pushing his dominance over the influence of Sin. But the Reaper tech and Necron would not be influenced so easily.
"Explosion!" Azul cast the spell with large amount of his magic going into it. It Burned hot around the Gauss Cannon. Fusing some of its components. 'Flame Fist!' Focused completely in his right hand, Azul felt a little bit of pain. 'Shit, this is really hot without Inferna!'
Health -33
With a Dash, Azul moved around and hacked away. Making it to the shoulder, he stabbed inside. With a twist and a turn seperated some of it.
"Yeah old man. Letting some stupid creature take you over. How stupid!" Tidus yelled. He swung his sword at the pagoda that came spinning towards him. "Mom would be so disappointed in you!"
'He just had to push the Mom button!' Azul felt the rush of energy from Sin's Biotic Strands, he was heated and that meant an increase to his powers.
"Fwoosh!" The Necron Pagoda turned to Azul and rammed into him. It kept spinning grinding against him. His chest cave in and cut across his body. Khorne was dismissed to keep from loosing it.

"Get.. lost!" Azul took the risk to his hands and threw it up into the air. He cast Heal right after. 'Shit! It's not working!' Slight panic passed as he looked at the gauss burning his hands. It was moving upward as if alive. With a thought, he grabbed hold and ripped both arms off. They fell down burned off in moments.
Health -331
"Overlord's.. Fury!" Azul yelled in rage. Instead of them floating, they took the place of his arms. 'All Buff!' The power washed over Azul as he started casting away. The sigil on Sin activating and invading his body. The Dark Gundam took control of the Cannons and went to provide support to the Aeons.
"Arrrr!" Sin grabbed at his head shaking. His legs hitting against the platform from the side. AzuI took the time to teleport in front of him. He raged and smacked around some more.
"Fwoosh!" Azul put his hand to his chest and sent out his magic to disrupt him. It was a point-blank assault. He used Concussive Shot amped up. Blasting holes into Sin. Taxing the restorative power of the upgrades. He used Mental Cleansing as an after thought..
"Hah!" AzuI grunted at the abrupt power usage added by his anger, and the sigils placed on Sin. He connected with something in the inside and reached in pulling it out. "Get your ass out of there!"
"Damn it!" Riku cursed. She could feel Azul's anger wash over her. The others as well. 'Hope he doesn't lose it.' A body was thrown out to the back. Then another and another. 'What the hell?!'
"A bunch of Al Bhed?" Auron noticed the clothes. Then a man he hadn't seen in a while. "Braska... how?" Riku was more focused on a woman there.
"What the hell is your mom doing in there?!" Riku shouted. Yuna froze. "Shit!" Dashing to the rear group, she moved into the thick of it and powered up. Most of the troops fell back to the Aeon side. Needing the cover. "Explosive Wave!" She released all her energy and magic wiping everything out. All that was left, was a crater and Riku barely standing. Sapphire snatched her up and retreated.
"You really are making this difficult." Azul grabbed Tidus's mom and threw her out as well. Somebody would catch her. Maybe. 'So many flipping corpses and spirits fed into this thing.' He felt a lot more inside and had to convince the Chaos Gods not to eat them. He felt a power radiate inside. 'Actually you know what, I need a little something for my troubles. Eat the assholes that caused us problems!'
Chaos Gods: Yes!
They started devouring the Followers and Companions that the Traitor Users that failed the group. The parts of their souls would serve well and it removed the possibility of them getting anything from returning. The Millenium Eye burned Hot as Obelisk worked overtime as well.
"Mom!" Tidus yelled not fighting at all with like Yuna, Riku and Auron. he others picking up the slack.
Sin pulled away from Azul. He gave ma very menacing look as he took in a deep breath. Knowing what was coming, Azul stopped Pulling and Placed his hands up. A Biotic Shielding pushed out reinforced by the Shield Spell.
"Haaaaa!" Sin took in a deep breath but didn't get anything. Just stuff from the surroundings. Lulu looked exhausted and ready to collapse. She did release her spells though.
"Double Flare!" Two blasts of intense white magic blasted Jecht on the sides of his chest. He stooped sucking in air. A monster came around and was about to cut into her. Yunalesca appeared throwing into the air before vanishing. "Ahhh!" Lulu screamed as she fell. AzuI 2nd teleported grabbing her in the air.
"Get your shit togethor before I kill all of them!" He yelled towards the group around the pulled out people. Eyes radiating in malice. "Fight now!" It was a powerful Command imbued with Pather Power.
Yuna had summoned Ifrit, Shiva and Yajimbo to help the others fight against the sinspawn. She was letting it fight on its own as she helped the others heal. The ones that could be healed. Tidus, Auron and got back into the fight, but Riku was to drained to do anything.
"Swoosh," holding onto her 2nd Azul looked for a spot to put her. Next to Riku was the best bet right now. "Get ready to be on your feet to cast again." He looked at her and passed that everything was going to be ok to her with his Pather Power. She nodded when he put a mana potion in her hands.
'Hmm, so different than his other half. He would have killed them ' Lulu downed the potion as the 2nd Azul fused back with the first. 'They both look angry. I hope this goes well.'
Azul refocus the barrier into his palms. The Overlord hands were not good in wielding it how he wanted. Getting rid of that idea, he changed his tactic. The arms seperated and floated to join the Aeons in a fight.
System: Magic Check 53 Pass
Compressing the biotic energy to look like arms, Azul tried a little blood magic he learned from Skarlet. It filled in the inside and he was able to regenerate again. Just would take a while. It came at a cost. It drained his body and made him light-headed until his body would catch up with more blood produced. No time to think as he had to dodge.
