Heroes Uprising part 14.

Milo: Damn it.Ikon..you understand the situation don't you?
Ikon: OF course..but this isn't good.

"Milo makes a sword appear in his hand, and converts it into admantium, Ikon doing the same thing, and both began to march over to "Isabel"

Milo: Sorry Yamairo....but we have to silence her to end this,
Ikon: Then we'll go after Amadeus, and Fior, we need to end this situation, come in Tiffiany, help us bring down Yamairo if he interfers, and Amber as well, we don't know her alliance.

"The Two charge nearing Amber, slashing at "Isabel."

Tiffany: Ok!

*Following Milo's command she prepares to attack either Yama or Amber if they try to interfere.*

Amber: My alliance! Oh fuck you Ventro, I'd like to see you take in All Evil of the World and stay sane!

"Amber pulls out the soulsword from thin air and gets ready to attack. Namini takes a stance as well, going past Shari's death"

Namini: I think this is about to get ugly

Yamairo: GUYS! Calm down...there has to be

"As he's about to argue with them, Isabel suddenly blasts all of them with lightning again. Milo is forced to shield the 4 of them as he knows none of the others can. As Yamairo takes cover, he's now in conflict...if he tries to save her, the world could end right there...his oath to protect the world, to be a hero"

Hero's can only save those they side with

"On the other hand...it's the woman he loves."

Yamairo: I...I...

"His ideals crumble in the face of that. In the face of one person, he doesn't matter. Raising the rune blade, he teleports in and causes a space warp between the attackers and Isabel. However, he faces her himself"

Yamairo: You four calm the FUCK down! I'll handle this one...Isabel...You listen to me right this instance. Get a grip. You are NOT a hollow empty shell without knowledge of consequences and what's evil and what's not. I taught you well enough the difference.

"Isabel is still in pain, but she listens. And when it seems as if she'll calm down, it's as if the Evil is conscious of it's possible defeat. He shows her images of every single painful moment in the life of the woman whose memories she had inherited. She grabs her head in pain, shadows rising around her"

"Isabel": I just want it not to hurt...Yamairo...these aren't mine so why...does it hurt...I'm not...Isabel

If you want it not to hurt...just give in

"Isabel": I...

"Isabel starts to grin"

"Isabel": Do not have a name...I just don't. So stop calling me by that BLASTED woman's name and using me to fill in for her!

"She raises her hands. Yamairo sees it coming and raises the Rune Sword and the Odinsword at the same time, but as light fills the room...nothing happens"

Yamairo: What...where...is she?!?

"Except Isabel herself is gone"

Tiffany: Storms ran away?

Yamairo: Yes she did...

Amber: DAMN IT YAMAIRO! WHY DID YOU GET IN THE WAY!
Yamairo: BECAUSE I DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOUR FUCKING GREATER GOOD!

"Yamairo teleports away without another word"

Namini: Looks like he's lost it this time
Amber: Let him lose it!!

"Amber lets the soulsword vanish as she falls to the ground, sitting down"

Amber: My head hurts, my bodies completely drained and my magical energies are a mess...and...I'm about to goddamn loose my title for sure...DAMN IT! I...
Namini: It's okay...nobody is going to blame you, that's for sure. We need to find Isabel. Where would she go...
Amber: Who knows...somewhere with high black magic affinity. It'd make it easier
Namini: Well...that or a personal place...

Milo: Amber..damn it! GOOD fucking job, NOW NATE IS DEAD BECAUSE OF YOUR DUMB ASS! OOOPOH WOE WOE IS ME! I NEED TO PROETCT MY FRIENDS OOOH BOOO HOO WHAT CAN I DO WITHOUT SOME MORE FUCKING POWER!?

"He knew Amber's intentions were just, and he was out of line, but if Yamairo was allowed to snap, then he was too, he turned to Tiffiany, and Ikon, energy surging in his eyes."

Ikon: Were letting our emotions manipulate us again, we..must be united in order to bring down this foe, we must work together if we are to achieve victory, come on Tiffiany, Milo, Amber, Namini, let's track down Yamairo, then work on getting our enemies
Milo: ENOUGH! DAMN IT IKON! I HOPE YOU LOOSE YOUR GOD DAMN TITLE! BECAUSE OF YOU INNOCENT PEOPLE ARE DEAD!? FRIENDS? ALL YOU CAN THINK ABOUT IS YOUR FUCKING TITLE!

"He opens a gravitational portal and Keeth falls out, and he telekentically tosses him into her, and grabs Tiffiany, and Ikon teleporting them back to James, and Carmen."

Carmen: Hi!
Milo: Not now, James, Amber's back on our side, but she's useless, and this whole situation is hopeless. ATEOTW has "Isabel" in it's control, we need to track down Amaedeus, and Fior.

James: Woa...Milo I saw that entire battle! You need to calm down, you're in no fit state to fight anyone. You'll just get hammered in!

---

"Amber helps Keeth up. She has tears in her eyes from Milo's comments"

Amber: Jerk...
Namini: Zulan was right through
Amber: Still have to wonder what he was doing with them. I wont even ask how he's alive, because that just doesn't impress me anymore. But yeah...

---

"Just then, me and Harry arrive"

Harry: DAMN IT! We missed it!
Me: That bastard actually managed to take us both on...and then the lightning started, and he redirected one to us...I barely made it in time for a block
Harry: Amber...you're
Amber: Normal again...well, as normal as I'll get...but Yamairo lost it...and Isabel...
Me: I figured when the weather went crazy...what now?
Namini: We need to find them. We search in places with high black magic concentration. Places like...
Amber: The place from where Iliria opened the portal. Where Sefirot was...I still need to fix that place of the bad influences he left behind

Harry: Guys wait...what if...she's still in control of at least her emotions. Where would SHE go...
Amber: Right now she's not in control...I have no idea

Me: There is...one final option

----

James: Alright...putting aside this for now, if we can't find them, there's one option

"Both me and James say it at the same time"

James and Me: We wait until she starts to show presence"

Harry: Huh?
Me: Think about it...this entire place was engulfed in a storm. We just wait until she shows herself. That should do it right?
Amber: Risky...
Me: It's our best shot...I don't have any other ideas...

Tiffany: Wait till Storms shows herself? Then we go defeat her.

James: Pretty much yes. I just wonder...if Yamairo has found her yet.
Ikon: Why don't you track him?
James: I've tried. It seems either unconsciously or otherwise, he's blocking me out. It's like...he doesn't exist.
Ikon: Hmm...spacial relocation. Removing his presence of space.
James: That's...weird he never...wait did he take off the red fabric around his left arm
Ikon: Yes
James: FUCK! We need to find him fast as well...damn it this is turning into a mess!!

Tiffany: *curious look* Why so much concern over a red piece of fabric?

James: When Yamairo lost his arm to the Void, his future self gave him the arm, but because Amber was in stress, she couldn't perform the magical transfer right, and thus pieces of the essence remained. In magic, essences clashing means a fight of wills, and the left arms consciousness is thus slowly eroding at Yamairo each time he uses his swords or his powers. He's feed information and made stronger...but loses himself. And now the flood gates are open and Amber can only fix them if we find him!

Tiffany: Oooohhh. OK.

"Milo groans looking at James."

Milo: I'm..the leader here damn it. Hammered in? Innocent people are at risk!? What if the Shadows move in murdering more people, we need to track down "Isabel".

"Listens in."

Ikon: wait, so he's going to die, unless we find him, and he's removed himself from space.
Milo: He's grown more advanced, but I bet I can take him down, what about summoning, a summoning spell, or hell the mutant ability of summoning we can draw him here can't we.

"Milo makes a sedative appear in his hand."

Milo: We Can bring him down, then take him to Amber, or hell I can try and repair the essences or whatever myself.
.....................
"Keeth hugs her, and kisses her."

Keeth: I love you Amber, I don't care what Milo has to say about you, I know you were only doing what you had to help us, to help him, so forget him, Zulan, all of them.
......................

Tiffany: Oh, Yamy is gonna die!?

Amber: Keeth I...thanks
Namini: Alright then...we monitor weather patterns
Harry: Seems like the safest bet but
Amber: I know...lets go back to Genosha. We can't do this alone. Milo just...lost it. Yama as well...oh my god Yama's sealing cloth! I just remember I noticed he removed it! Damn it! We seriously need to find him

"Amber teleports the group back to Genosha"

James: Guys?
Amber: James...hey...where's Yamairo?
James: No idea, and yea, we need to repair that thing

"Amber looks at Milo"

Amber: And we need to find Isabel, but for that I suggest we wait until SHE shows herself...you alright with that Milo?

----

"Meanwhile, we find ourselves in a underground cave. Isabel is there alone. The cave itself is extremely large, and seems to have what looks like a monolith covered in the same shadowy mud. At the top, lies a black orb"

"However, the cave has various entrances. Yamairo, much farther above, is walking along one."

Yamairo: To think she made all this here of all places. I guess I'll switch it off and let Milo know. But he wont be able to come in here, he'll have to come in through the outside

"Just then, he hears footsteps"

Yamairo: Oh great...

----

James: Guys...I'm picking him up again...he's...he's...no way the Sarah
Namini: of all places...why the
Harry: Because that's where Isabel...killed Yamairo.
Me: That incident...I remember. Guys we should go...we need to hu-

"Just then"

Sandra: Hurry...yeah we do

Me: Sandra!
James: You're conscious again?

"Milo nods."

Milo :Yes, we'll do this, we need to find Yamairo, now then the question is how..I think I have an idea.

"Sends out a Telepathic Message, directed to Yamairo, then notices Sandra, and converts his finger nails into blades"

Milo :Alright Sandra...the hell is going on.
????: GET away from her.

"Dave is seen with a gun to Milo's head."

Dave: Back up, leave her alone. Sandra what's going on?

Sandra: Very much so James. Sorry if I worried you all.
Tiffany: *cheerful smile* Phoenix girl!!

*Sandra notices Milo, then Dave coming in.*

Sandra: Dave, calm down, please. And Milo, we can discuss what happened later. We need to deal with the situation at hand.

James: So you weren't...
Sandra: Whatever that thing is, it pulls on negative emotions. I'm sure everyone has realized this...some more than others

"She says this looking at Milo, and she implies she knows the Void had been pushing to get out when he first fought the shadows of the Evil"

Amber: It's Evil incarnate...so obviously it pulls on the evil said of everyone. In a sense, it's a power in all of us, the power of evil. Everyone has it.

"Milo stares at her, considering the operations, there was a risk Sandra was the Dark Phoenix, but he stopped"

Milo: Alright then your right Sandra, then..wait James we'd best head to the Sahara I remember the exact location. Hmm damn it, I wish I had a way to kill the Void, sometimes immortality is a bitch.

*Sandra approaches the group, a untrusting and hateful stare quickly falling upon Ikon.*

Sandra: What is he (Ikon) doing here, pretty sure Carmen had him locked away.

*Before anyone could say something.*

Sandra: You know what, never mind that now. Yama, Isabel, this is more important. Just know this, Zulan.
Ikon: Damnit, will people stop...
Sandra: Stop what, calling you that, no. You just stay the hell away from me, my husband, and my son. Unless we're in combat I don't want you anywhere near me, got it. Now.

*Tiffany looks at Ikon.*

Tiffany: Ooh, Sandy don't like you.

*Sandra turns her attention back to the others.*

Sandra: Are we ready to move out, or are battle plans still in discussion here.

James: Well...I guess we're ready to move out
Amber: Wait...whatever's expecting us, we should make two groups. One is going to deal with the people the shadow has absorbed...and the other with Isabel herself.
Namini: I'll be on the group with the shadow puppets...for...obvious reasons.
Me: I'll go with that one to
Harry: Ditto
Amber: I'll go with the other group. Sandra and Milo stick with me, and that should be enough...for now at least

"Suddenly, Manny walks into the room. As soon as she does, Sandra gets extremely uncomfortable. Manny doesn't notice in his usual ignorance"

Manny: Sandra! You're awake!! We ready do leave
James: Not we...them. I'd rather not send anyone other than the strongest after this thing...or it may come back to bite us

----

"Meanwhile, Yamairo finds soon enough who the footsteps belong to. It's none other than Fior."

Fior: Oh...lucky me,

Yamairo: Of all the possible people I have to fight...I get the one where time stops are useless It's you...why are you here? Is Amadeus here too?
Fior: If you get past me...you might get your answer

Sandra: Eum, yes, yes I'm awake. *turn her attention again to the rest of the group.* So myself, Amber, and Milo. Alright then, lets finally get this over with.

*Sandra stands as does Milo and Amber, before teleporting Sandra paused a moment, looking at Manny, she was still shocked by those images she had seen before passing. Milo quickly teleports the 3 to the caves, and picking a random entrance from the many available.*

Namini: This place...it's filled with...

"Everyone could tell. Everyone had been around Amber when she was using the power, but this...was 100 times worse. It felt as if they could just die from the air being so putrid"

Harry: man...this is scary...there are no words

Milo: I dont care, don't be afraid, were the good guys, and were going to win, were going to save a world that hates us, because that's what what we do, that's because were the Shadow X Men.

Sandra: I guess we really do have that "good guy" quality to us, don't we. Hell, we've after helped some of our enemies even. Very well then, lets see what challenge awaits us this time.
