Light and Darkness: Open RP

Ms. Sketch watched as the mechanical Hero faced off against Mr. Knives, knowing full well he was no match for an Agent of Darkness...
"Hey!" Ms. Sketch said, looking at the weapon the Hero had in his hands. "That's Ms. Charity's Element Rod! Where did you get it?"
The Hero turned to Ms. Sketch as Mr. Knives leapt at him...
"Take this!" Ms. Sketch said, drawing a train on her paper. In an instant, the Train came out and knocked into Mr. Knives, and just barely dodging the Hero.
"He doesn't know how to use the Rod..." Ms. Sketch thought as the Hero looked at the Rod in his hand.
"Listen..." Ms. Sketch said quickly to the Hero. "That Rod can call down Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, and Lightning! Using it correctly, you can destroy an Agent of Darkness, but in order to do so you have to..." Ms. Sketch knocked back as an explosion nearby (courtesy of Mr. Maul) knocked her off her feet. Her head hit a nearby wall, knocking her out for the moment.
Nearby, Mr. Knives had completely shredded the train and was heading back towards Ms. Sketch and the Hero...

Tick-Tok got up and looked around, he noticed the emerald and quickly put it in his hiding place. He then noticed Mr. Maul coming at him.
"You have thrown away my trust" Tick-Tok said as he ran up to Mr. Maul and gave him a swift uppercut, he then enclosed Mr. Maul in a tesla cage.
"Never throw away my trust" Tick-Tok said as he felt his body moving on it's own. Something inside him was controlling him.

Mr. Potential tried out several of the Clockwork's attacks, getting used to his new host. He could tell his host knew that something was wrong, but he had no time to explain it to him.
"Alright, time to see just what this Clockwork can REALLY do!" Mr. Potential charged his Light Energy and applied it to his new host.

"KILL! KILL TICK-TOK!" Mr. Maul laughed, dancing around wildly in his Tesla Cage. Just as Mr. Maul broke free, however, Tick-Tok's body seemed to explode with electricity, and Mr. Maul watched as his opponent, once a normal Clockwork, now had light and electricity flowing around him. Mr. Maul, of course, realized what happened.
"POTENTIAL! POTENTIAL! KILL! KILL! KILL!" Mr. Maul said, throwing all of his grenades at the Clockwork. Every grenade hit dead-on, an attack that would had destroyed Tick-Tok...
"POTENTIAL! POTENTIAL! POTENTIAL!!!" Mr. Maul cried as the smoke cleared, revealing a perfectly unharmed Tick-Tok, still glowing with light and electricity.
"Hmm..." Mr. Potential thought, straining to maintain Tick-Tok's new power. "In order to maintain this amount of power, I'll have to give control back to Tick-Tok." Mr. Potential stopped controlling Tick-Tok and concentrated on generating Light Energy...

Tick-Tok felt himself back in control, whatever was helping him, he trusted completly.
"Goodbye Mr. Maul" Tick-Tok said as he fired a highly concentrated beam of electricity at the lunatic. The body fell limply to the ground.
"You made your first mistake by underestimating me, now to bring out my full potential." Tick-Tok said as he flew right dead center into Ms. Hack.
"You're next" Tick-Tok said as he did a cartwheel kick, send Ms. Hack into a metal pole, the sickening crack that resounded was something he hated to hear.

Ms. Hack dropped to the ground, "dead". She quickly reformed as she noticed Mr. Potential inside the Clockwork. Luckily, the pole had killed her and not one of the Clockwork's energy beams...
"Kill... kill... kill..." Mr. Maul jerked around in a death rattle, his body beginning to glow. In the next instant, his body exploded in white light, and Mr. Maul was no more. The Dark Energy, however, split and went six different directions.
A portion of that energy hit Ms. Hack in the chest, and her body absorbed it. "I never like Mr. Maul." Ms. Hack said, smiling as Tick-Tok fired one his blasts right at her. An instant before it hit her, a blur grabbed her and pulled her out of the way, the blast JUST missing her. The blur put her down and wheeled around to Tick-Tok, who looked at the blur and was about to fire when all of a sudden the blur stopped behind him, revealing it to be Mr. Death traveling at a very high speed on his wheels. He lowered his left arm cannon (the Star Destroyer) at the back of Tick-Tok's head at point-blank range.
"Die." He smiled, firing the cannon. It had enough power to take out the entire city. However, Mr. Potential saw this coming and diverted all of his energy into stopping the blast. As the smoke cleared, both the city and Tick-Tok were safe, but the strain had been too much for Mr. Potential.
Tick-Tok felt his new energy leave his as Mr. Potential died inside of him, his "body" exploding in black light. His Light Energy went into the other 6 Agents of Light.
"What a waste..." Mr. Death smiled, aiming his cannon at Tick-Tok (now regressed to his normal form). Just before he fired, however, a beam hit his arm, cutting it off. Mr. Death attempted to regenerate it, then found out he couldn't, because it was from a Light Agent's Weapon. Turning, he saw Ms. Harmony brandishing her guitar as she stroked it again, the sound wave flying towards Mr. Death. Mr. Death quickly rode out of the way.
"Back me up!" Ms. Harmony said, tossing Tick-Tok a stange, glowing flute. Tick-Tok looked at the flute...

Vondor was still kind of lost on what had just happed, the demon had dropped Ms. Hack’s computer and it disappeared. Not to mention the demon in the at all was kind of out of place. He figured what was going on here was bigger than a simple fight of good versus the villains of paragon city. It had to be big top involve the devil himself to intervene, and for the side of good?

He noticed a train pop up out of nowhere and hit a dark agent he had seen earlier in the diner. He also saw a little girl who couldn’t be older than nine, with a humanoid robot. As he was trying to comprehend what she was doing there with the mechanoid they were both blown away. Due to a grenade from yet another dark agent. He saw the mechanoid get up and start for the little girl, only to be jumped Mr. Knifes from behind. He rushed to the robots side, and sliced the attacker in the back. He fell off and laid there, by the time Vondor looked in the direction of the robot it was gone. He heard a noise behind him…


Meanwhile the robot had grabbed the mysterious little girl, and jumped to the relative safety of the nearest skyscraper. He had enough time to check his power supply, 25% it read.

Vondor turned around just in time to see Mr. Knives' claws swipe at him. Luckily, Vondor managed to jump away from Mr. Knives' target, his head, but the claws were still able to get a piece of his arm. Injured, but still able to fight, Vondor saw his opening and charged Mr. Kinves as he drew his sword in one fluent movement, slicing Mr. Knives in half across his torso. Vondor landed a small distance away after the attack, and looked back as Mr. Knives fell to the ground "dead". Almost immediately, however, Mr. Knives' body turned into a black mist and then reformed back to perfect health. Mr. Knives smiled as he turned to Vondor, extending his claws once again...

Meanwhile, Ms. Sketch began to come to, realizing she was in the arms of the android that was carrying Ms. Charity's Rod.
"Do you know how to use that Rod?" Ms. Sketch asked, still a little groggy.

“To the extent that I can use a baseball bat” The mechanical thing replied in a perfectly human voice

The shock on the little girls face was noticeable, when the android talked like any other human she had met.

“Would you mind telling me how to?” he asked

Tick-Tok took the flute and as if he had played it all his life the notes spilled in an array of color, going in all directions one note slammed into the face of Ms. Hack. Making her faint, the note stuck onto her face, this made her face start to tint blue.

Ms. Sketch moaned and began took out her pens and paper, drawing a picture of the mechanical Hero with the Rod in hand. The drawing jumped out of the paper and soon stood in her lap, the size of a small kitten as it stood.
"It always begins with a whirl." Ms. Sketch said, the drawing whirling it's little rod like a helicopter in front of it's body. "In order to summon Lightning, after the whirl raise the rod into the air." The little Hero stopped whirling and raised it's arm above it's head, it's small Rod pointing straight upwards. "To summon Water, whirl the rod on the left side of your body and then point it at your enemy." The small figure moved it's arm to it's left side as it whirled the Rod, then pointed it forward. "To summon Fire, it's the same thing, except whirl it on the right side of your body first." The small figure whirled the Rod on the right side and then again pointed the Rod forward. "To Summon Earth, whirl the rod in front of you, then touch it down to the ground." The small figure whirled it's Rod in front of him like it had for the Lightning, but this time touched the tip of the Rod onto the Ms. Sketch's lap. "And to Summon Wind, you have to whirl it in front of you and then make an arc in front of your body." The small figue whirled the Rod in front of himself again, then swung the Rod in a wide arc in front of himself. "That's how it works."
The mechanical Hero landed on a safe roof, and Ms. Sketch jumped down. "What's your name, anyway?" She asked.

Ms. Hack's face began to contort as the color ran through her body, and eventually her entire body grew stiff, and her lungs ceased to function.
"Connection... Terminated." Ms. Hack couged her last words, then ceased to move. Her body then exploded in white light, and the Dark Energy was absorbed by the 5 remaining Dark Agents.
"Whew..." Ms. Harmony thought, wiping her face. In the next instant, though, Mr. Pain tackled her and grabbed her neck, forcing her body to the ground. With a wicked smile, Mr. Pain snapped Ms. Harmony's neck.
Ms. Harmony's body exploded in black light, as her Light Energy went to her remaining teammates.
Tick-Tok watched as his flute vanished right before his eyes...

The wound on Vondors arm was noticeable but not enough to distract him from the dark agent who was rushing him. He now understood that he could not kill these things on the terms that he was used to. As the man ran toward him claws at the ready, Vondor sprinted away at super speeds hoping that the dark agent couldn’t track his progress. When he reached a place where he felt that he would be safe he began his incantations, but this time his energy was focused on his sword. Each minute the sword grew brighter and brighter, until it was glowing white. He knew only one strike would be permitted before the magic destroyed the sword. Even with all of his training and all of his skills he wasn’t sure if this would be enough to even harm one of the dark agents. But he knew exactly who he would go after.

As he entered the battle ground that was Atlas Park once again, he looked around for Ms. Hack She was already taken care of by clockwork with a flute. He noticed a dark agent jump onto a hero with a guitar and promptly kill her. He sprinted in the direction of the agent at superhuman speeds. Drawing the sword he jumped flying through the air he brought the sword down on the demons arm. It was destroyed in an explosion of dark energy. Not knowing if it would come back or what would come of it, he dropped to his knees losing his strength by the second from the spells which had took so much out of him. Then everything blacked out.

Mr. Pain cried in agony as he lost his arm. He tried to regenerate it, but found that he was regenerating much slower than normally.
"That sword had almost as much Light Energy as the Light Agent's weapons do!" Mr. Pain thought angrily. Looking down, he saw the Hero that had injured him, knocked out. "Enough of you." Mr. Pain snarled, picking the Hero up by the neck with his one useable arm. "If I could I would snap your neck, but I guess I'll just have to kill you the old-fashioned way." He threw the Hero onto the ground. "By BEATING you to death!" Mr. Pain raised his foot and began to stomp on Vondor...

The robot was silent contemplating the answer for a moment.

Then it said with a tone of sadness “It was…Anthony Haze”

And with that the robot jumped off of the building experimenting with the elemental powers of the wand on some Crey who had escaped the ziggurat.

Just then he caught sight of Vondor, streaking across the park. He saw him with his glowing sword attack the dark agent. He ran quickly to his fallen comrade’s side, twirling the rod in front of him and arching it, he sent a gust of wind that picked up the dark agent and carried him to the top of atlas statue. He grabbed Vondor and checked his pulse, he was alive but barely, and started to leap off, but Mr. Pain was right there. He twirled the staff above himself and sent a lighting bolt at the agent which missed. Mr. Pain was looking at the staff with mild amusement was he charged forward. Silver laid Vondor down on a park bench and prepared himself for the battle.

Mr. Knives watched Mr. Pain fight with the Hero armed with the Light Agent's weapon in amusement.
"Mr. Pain has never seen Ms. Charity's weapon." Mr. Knives smiled, looking away from their battle. He set his eyes on the Clockwork that had killed two of his allies. "Time to end this little one's winning streak."
With two jumps, Mr. Knives was upon Tick-Tok. Tick-Tok turned and fired an electric bolt at the Agent, but Mr. Knives easily dodged the attack. With two swipes, Tick-Tok found himself in 3 pieces as Mr. Knives jumped away...

Mr. Pain charged in on the mechanical Hero, his right arm finally regenerated as he did so. The Hero twirled his Rod and fired a huge Fireball at him as he charged, and Mr. Pain now found his left side destroyed and completely UNABLE to regenerate it.
"That must be a Light Weapon!" Mr. Pain realized as the Hero attempted to finish him with an Earth strike. When the Hero placed the rod on the ground, however, Mr. Pain jumped up to avoid the attack.
The Hero began to whirl the sword again as Mr. Pain landed, but was too late as Mr. Pain grabbed the Hero's head and crushed it in his right hand, finishing off by ripping off the Hero's head.
"Hahaha...ooh!" Mr. Pain looked down to see the Rod that the Hero had been wielding was in his stomach. Mr. Pain looked at the dead robot on the ground, then his eyes began to blur with water, followed by his mouth, ears, and soon his whole body.
"Glub glub..." Mr. Pain's last words were mere choking sounds as he fell down on top of his last victim, and then his body exploded in white light. As his Dark Energy went to the remaining Dark Agents, the Rod itself rolled on the park floor...

Tick-Tok felt the seering pain run through him.
"But I had to live" Tick-Tok said as he began to slowly dissapear from the world.
"I was going to become a famous hero..." Tick-Tok said as he coughed up some oil.

Vondor awoke with a massive headache, as he sat up he momentarily forgot where he was. Out of instinct he reached for his katana but could only find an empty holster. The it hit him he was in Atlas Park. The incantations, the dark agents, the sword…the sword his one and only. It was forged by his forefathers and passed down in his family it was…gone.

Just then he saw a little girl, who was being charged by Mr. Claws he rushed to her side not sure how to help her without his sword. She seemed oblivious to the frantic madman sprinting towards her; she was content drawing on her piece of paper. Vondor came to her side and began to defend her when an enormous tiger jumped out of the paper and took Mr. Claws by surprise.

He stood there in open-mouthed shock, as the tiger held off the dark agent.

"This is hopeless!" Mr. Justice yelled, throwing one of his tools aside in frustration as he looked at Freedom. The Huge, HUGE machine was well hidden with his cloaking device, and to any onlooker it just looked like he was hunched over something only he could see in the street. Unless, of course, they ran into it. Then they would know.
"That son of a (censored) Mr. Knives!" Mr. Justice yelled, looking around. "He destroyed the main CPU core! Where am I going to..." Mr. Justice looked at the Clockwork he had fixed earlier, it seemed mortally wounded once again.
"A CPU core..." Mr. Justice thought, and approached the Clockwork.
Tick-Tok awakened and realized that he wasn't himself anymore. First of all, he couldn't seem to move, and secondly, checking his systems he seemed to have transformed into a giant robot.
"Alright, Clockwork..." Mr. Justice's voice crackled in Tick-Tok's head. "I've implemented your main CPU into my robot, Freedom. It's a little restrictive, but seeing as how you were about to die..." Mr. Justice sighed. "Look, I'll make you a new body afterwards, but right now I need you to help me out with this fight, OK?"
Mr. Justice looked at Tick-Tok solemnly. "When I turn off the cloaking device, the Dark Agents will see us, and will probably attack us. I'll be in control of most of the robot, but I'm leaving you in charge of the twin gattling guns on both of your shoulders," A schematic came up as he said this, and Tick-Tok saw the blue prints for the weapon and how it operated. "As well as the electric defense system. Use this ONLY when someone is trying to climb onto you, otherwise you'll use up power unecessarily. This is how Mr. Knives destroyed Freedom last time, so be careful!" Mr. Justice ended the transmission, and Tick-Tok soon found himself looking at Atlas Park in a whole new way, almost like a kaleidoscope; he was seeing every direction at once.
"OK!" Mr. Justice said as he turned off the cloaking device and rose up HIGH into the air...

Ms. Sketch looked at the odd man in robes and saw his empty sheath. She got an idea...
Mr. Knives, on the other hand, had just finished slicing the tiger away when he began to charge Ms. Sketch as she was still drawing away furiously. He was stopped as Ms. Grace leapt down from the air and grabbed tackled him to the ground.
"Hurry, Ms. Sketch!" Ms. Grace said as she reached into her nurse's uniform and got out one of her syringes. Mr. Knives was able to fend her off, however, and soon was back on his feet as he knocke Ms. Grace off.
Meanwhile, Ms. Sketch furiously continued to draw, looked at her picture for a moment, then added on final detail and threw the paper in the air. The paper exploded and a Katana with a glowing blade fell out from the paper. Ms. Sketch grabbed the Katana in mid-air and presented it to Vondor.
"I know it's not yours, but..." Ms. Sketch watched as Ms. Grace was overcome by Mr. Knives, his claw slicing her throat open. She dropped to ground and exploded in black light, her Light Energy going to all of the remaining Light Agents.
"Please use it." Ms. Sketch pleaded, handing the sword to Vondor as Mr. Knives turned to them...

He reached out for the hilt of the sword and grabbed it; the surge of power from the blade was enormous. It was slightly aglow with a streak of light running across it every once and a while. It was perfectly balanced with a deadly sharp blade. He looked up his eyeless face looking directly at Mr. Claws. The agent looked up and noticed the blade; he realized that he would have to fight like in old times. His immortality would not save him against a weapon of pure light.

As Vondor crouched into a fighting stance katana in front of him in with a double handed grip he prepared himself for the fight, he had been trained all his life and this was where it was all going to come into play. He was still weakened from his incantations and an earlier encounter with the agent but he would fight to the death.

Mr. Claws got up and slowly moved in Vondors direction. When they faced one and other all else was silenced all either of them could see was each other and their weapons. His 12 inch claws slowly extended form his hands and he also crouched.

They stayed there waiting for the other to strike first, to betray some flaw in their form and it remained.

“You shall not defeat me demon” Vondor rasped

Mr. Knives steadied himself, eyeing the weapon intently as he prepared to charge.
The charge was simultaneous, Mr. Knives charging with his claws as Vondor led with his sword. A flash of light occurred as the engaged for a moment, and the next moment they had already passed each other.
Vondor grabbed his arms in pain... Mr. Knives had managed to slash his arms up pretty badly, but they were still usable. Mr. Knives smiled at first, then screamed as his arm fell off. Vondor had managed to cut off his arm (though he had been aiming for Mr. Knives' head) in the instant they clashed. Since he couldn't regenerate, Mr. Knives turned and the two charged again, this time with rage in both their eyes as they connected together in a brilliant light...
They appeared to be like a statue of two ancient warriors as they stood there, their bodies unmoving as their attacks had hit each other. Mr. Knives stood there for that moment, his claws on his one good hand going straight into Vondor's face and out through the back of his head, while Vondor's Light sword was clearly visible as it had gone into Mr. Knives' stomach and came out his back. They stood like that for a moment until...
"Kaah..." Mr. Knives fell down, the sword still in his stomach as he exploded in white light, the Light sword clanging on the ground as the Dark Energy once again going into the remaining agents of Darkness. Vondor also fell down, his face utterly destroyed.
Ms. Sketch looked at Vondor's body, the blood still pouring out the back of his skull. He looked dead...

Tick-Tok tried out the guns a bit and shot some stray minions.
"Time to get it on!" Tick-Tok's voice crackled over the intercom. He watched as the machine moved and saw Mr. Dark slink into the shadows. Tick-Tok began firing in that direction, he hit a support beam and caused the building to collapse into the alley Mr. DArk had slunk into.

A nearby hero was watching the fight in awe at the two warriors, as the ferociously fought the battle. In the final engagement they both made lethal blows to each other. And as soon as it had begun it was over. The one with the claws disappeared in a flash of light while, while the katana wielding hero fell to the ground with a sickening thud. He didn’t get up; the claws had penetrated a lethal percent of his brain and shredded his medulla oblongata. Not even his alien body functions and rate of regeneration could save him. His hand was still gripping the hilt of the light katana, that was fading and eventual went out. He had died facing his match and was honored in defeat as well as victory.

And it is as such that Vondor and Silver Haze were destroyed in the battle to rid Paragon City of a great evil.

Mr. Dark emerged from the rubble, his body reforming as he looked at the machine.
"You do NOT want to challenge me." Mr. Dark said, and Tick-Tok fired his guns at Mr. Dark as Mr. Dark leapt into the air. As Mr. Dark rose into the air, Tick-Tok thought he had him, but in an instant Mr. Dark disappeared.
Tick-Tok looked around, confused. He wasn't on ANY of his monitors...
A large explosion at the cockpit alerted Tick-Tok further. It then hit him just before Freedom exploded: Mr. Dark hadn't disappeared, he just had been moving at an EXTREMELY fast speed. The machine exploded, and Mr. Justice exploded in black light in the machine as his Light Energy was split among the remaining Light Agents.
As for Tick-Tok, he found that he wasn't destroyed, and not only that, after the machine he was controlling was destroyed he had his original body back! That was the good news.
The bad news was that he was now falling to the ground of Atlas from about 5 stories in the air...

Tick-Tok Quickly put on his flight boosters.
"Damn I love these things" Tick-Tok said as he noticed Mr. Justice was dead. It looked like the only one left of the bad guys was Mr. Dark.
"I don't know what you are, But I'm here to sstop you!" Tick-Tok shouted as he took a bolt of electricty and threw it like a javelin, he used some of the stored light power Mr. Potentail seemed to have left into the blast. The spear embedded itself in Mr, Dark's chest.
"Game over" Tick-Tok said as he gave Mr. DArk the thungs down.
