"Phenoraixa, step onto the Telporter."
phenoraixa, who was brought into UCA againsth is will, was not happy. He didnt like fighting against his will as much as he didnt like fighting at all if it could be avoided. Yet he had little choice. If he was going to get out of this place, he would have to obey the rules to get home.
"Just remember, I do NOT like this." The bird flapped a few times and landed on the teleporting pad.

A second later, he was in the vast Volcanic area. The heat was intimidating... That is, if one was affected by it. Phenoraixa was essentially, living fire. So this heat was to him, not even there.
He perked on a large rock, awaiting his oppenent.

[The Great MM]

Inside the darkness, no lights could survive. Even the sun's brightness was nothing compared to the absolute darkness created by the most powerful demon of them all. And yet, for as powerful as he was, he had also been captured and moved to this alien dimension. He sensed great heroes here, and that enraged him. He also sensed vile entities like himself, things that thought their wrath were worse than his.

This also enraged him.

But as he walked through the hub, slaughtering minor beings before him and shrugging off the UCA that defied him, the voice of the arena beckoned. "The monster known as Darklore, head to the nearest telepod!"

Darklore snorted. "Stupid things think they can control me..." He said to himself, almost in a whisper. Then, eerily, voices from within him echoed. "Nothing can control you..."

After a few moments, the demon grew bored and decided to comply, heading into one of the city-sized chambers and stepping onto the pad. In a flash, his body was transported to a living hell, not unlike that of his home dimension. Volcanoes and rivers of lava flowed everywhere, and the demon quickly spotted his heroic enemy perched above...

"You shall die..." He stated coldly, without remorse.
"And join us..." The fallen souls the master had collected added.

[Inferno Rodan]

FIGHT!

[Deleted]

Phenoraixa glared down at the strange demonic creature that made its threat. Normally, Phenoraixa would show mercy to any creature by speaking to its better half.
This thing... It had no better half. He could hear the voices in tis head, speaking of "Joining us" from what sounded to be a virtual army of beings.
Then he spoke. "Me? Dying? The avatar of life itself? And joining somthing as evil as you?" His saphire eyes bore into to the demons so boldley. "In the words of my brother, the Avatar of Death..." Phenoraixa opened both wings. "Fat Chance!"

Phenoraixa flapped his wings once, and a gust of flames erupted from the magma streams all around. Like waves from an ocean, the flames engulfed the boney demon in a sprial tower of scolding flames.
Phenoraixa huffed. "Pathetic excuse for evil.." Spoke too soon. Two blue and purple bolts shot out like lightning and struck the bird square in the chest, knockign him back off his perch with the wind knocked out of him. Quickly, he righted himself and hovered upwards slowly.

Darklore hovered too. If he had flesh, eyes and a visable mouth, he would be smiling. "Pathetic, am I?" the voices echoed. "Pathetic, are we?" Fallowed by echoeing laughter of a crowd of people "I/We are/Am the god of death and no other, even your brother, rule above me/us!" The creature spoke and gloated, the voices speaking in syncronization.
The Phoenix shook his head. "Maybe in your universe, but my brother could see everyones death... I bet he could see even yours." He recalled.
"Oh yes..." Darklore spoke. "Your brother, Grimm... Perhaps I/We should recall that time he forwarned you of the event that destroyed Australias forests and lost so many, many lives. Yet, you did nothing?" The voices that spoke seemed to be in shock. A ploy that seemed to work.
Phenoraixa pulled back as if slapped in the face. "How do you know that?!" He glared.
"I/We know all your sins. Every mistake, every negative thing and fuck up you done. And you call me/us pathetic."

Phenoraixa erupted in anger, fire from several hundred feet around flaring up. Kicking off the ground, he barreled straight at Darklore like a meteor with flames erupting from his body.

(Sorry for the lack of fighting. I was sort of rushed and though it might be neat to use Darklores sinister ways of talking.)

[The Great MM]

Darklore stood tall, white mist falling from underneath its bony helmet as the flames lifted up like a tsunami. Then, with unearthly power, the inferno came down. Darklore didn't move a muscle, and Phenoraixa's eyes opened wide in shock as his hell flew right through the demon's body as if he was a ghost! The only parts ignited were the bones of the fallen Gods he had assimilated.

"I have no soul... He has no soul... thus no body." The dark lord and his minions whispered sadistically.
"All of those souls and you don't have one of yourself! I pity you!"

Darklore's jawed arm lifted up, brilliance growing between the open maw as purple, black, and blue lightning began to dance between the teeth. "Save your pity for the weak!... Save your pity for us!"

Before Phenoraixa could react, a blistering ball of darkness launched from his arm! The energy fanned underneath the attack as it fired like a cannon, striking hard into the avian's chest! The bird cried aloud in pain as its feet were lifted off the ground and its body was hammered down on the perch. Darklore stepped out of the flames the bird had summoned, mace lifting up.

Energy began to build in the unholy weapon before bolts of twisted, demonic energy leaped forth! Phenoraixa's eyes opened wide as he rolled to the side, dodging the bolts as they smashed against the volcanic rock beneath him. The guardian cursed in rage, "Flame on!"

From beneath Darklore, before he could turn hollow again, the ground lifted up, fed by the lava flows just meters beneath the rocky ground. The rock exploded up, unable to take the pressure as a gigantic plume of spiraling fire engulfed the vile entity. As Darklore burned, the winged warrior charged forward, spiraling before flying through the inferno!

The fires exploded in every direction as Phenoraixa collided with Darklore, making the demon fly out of the blaze, every inch of his being smoking. Phenoraixa landed, eyes burning red as he prepared to unleash his god-like pyrokinesis again. As the flames began to tear away from the rocks underneath Darklore's feet, the demon leaped forward, carried by his own levitation. The bird was taken by surprise and could only lift his wings in defense as Darklore came down, bringing his huge mace down over his head!

A sickening crack followed as Phenoraixa fell back, screaming in pain. Before he could gain any more distance, Darklore spun around, smashing the weapon across his beak! Blood and small pieces of keratin flew out from the impact as he fell to the side, squirming in pain...

[Deleted]

(Flame on, lol Human Torch)

Darkelore brough his mace around agian for a third smash. But instead of making another blow to the birds head, Phenoraixa lifted his claw and caught onto the the weapon, fallowed by his second claw; ultimately he perched upon the weapon like it was his personal seat.

With a few powerful flaps of his wings, the bird managed to rip the mace from Darklores hand and fly up with it. Before he could toss it though, the Mace surged and he was shocked. A eagle like cry of pain echoed in the volcanic mountains, and he dropped the weapon back down to its owner.
Darklore caught it with ease, and laughed. "You are the first fool to pick up my mace.... Our Mace" the voices echoed. Phenoraixa hovered while the demon spoke. "Now come, just a bit closer." The voices echoed the sentance almost in sync. "Whats the matter? Are you afraid that I will crush your small and light weight body with my/our Jaws of Death!" Lifting the massive jaws as he spoke the words. Another Darkness Orb fired straight at the sun-bird

Phenoraixa, being a bird and easily faster then Darklore, dodged it with relitivly ease. But then ther was another, and another! Phenoraixa began dancing in the air to avoid each ball of energy.
After ducking the seventh attack, the bird dive bombed to the ground and landed with a loud crash as the thick and long eagle claws peirced the earth. The reaction from the landed sent an surge of energy underground and under the vicious demon. A geyser of magma and flames exploded from earth and sent the satanic feind flying into the air, only to catch himself with his own levitation.
Phenoraixa kicked off the ground and flew at the creature, a river of flames and magma being trailed along the birds tail feathers as if he was a train leading cars. Instead of being slammed, Darklore turned hallow and Phenoraixa phasd right through him.
"Perfect" Phenoraixa said. Phenoraixa began circling Darklore over and over, still carrying the river of liquid rock behind him. Slowly, Phenoraixa was making an orb of magma to engulf and trap Darklore.

[The Great MM]

Darklore looked around. The empty eye sockets of his skull helmet flashed red, the demon was growing more and more annoyed. "Pathetic." The devil spat, his head circling as the lava formed a sort of bubble. Drops of magma fell on his body, sizzling as it slowly cooled on his soulless flesh. The sun-bird continued to trap the dark lord in his twisted, fiery dome.

Looked around, more white mist fell from his mask as he lifted his mace into the air. A chuckle came from those lost within his body as the air around the weapon pulsated. Then, in a heartbeat, the mace was engulfed in blackness. As the lava continued to trap the demon within it, the darkness began to expand, filling up the dome the bird had made.

Before Phenoraixa knew it, the eternal darkness penetrated his dome of hell. The bird looked back, stunned as blackness now replaced the inferno he had created.

Worse yet... it was expanding!

The bird stopped its dome, focusing his attention from escaping the expanding darkness field, but in no time, it surpassed him. A wave of black replaced everything. The bird listened, hearing the sound of the lava he had risen crashing down, splashing like water all over Darklore and the ground. The demon's shouts of rage rang loudly, but there was no light. As the bird focused his powers, he summoned fire from underneath him...

He could sense the fire was there... But no light was cast.

"Welcome to my world..." The demon chuckled, his souls following his worlds. "Welcome to his world......"

Still in the air, trying to escape the ever-lasting darkness, Phenoraixa suddenly crashed into the side of one of the nearby mountains going nearly Mach speed! The sickening boom rang loudly in the blackness as the guardian began to roll down the side of the mountain, countless boulders coming down with him.

Not to far away, in the darkness, Darklore cracked his neck and walked forward. He was the only being able to see in this void. He stepped over the pools of burning magma, approaching the stirring Phenoraixa. The bird recovered and opened his eyes, but still could see nothing but black.

"What type of trick is this..." The guardian spat, standing up on guard.
"It's no trick!" Darklore's demonic voice boomed as he reached out, gripping the bird's throat by surprise.

On instinct, Phenoraixa tried to pull away, but a quick strike of the mace made him silent. Pain tore through his skull as he felt the warmness of his own blood wash over his eyes. Another blow rang loudly as Darklore tried to scramble his brains! As another blow made even more blood flow, the bird managed to insult the fiend.

"You hide in darkness..." He stated, "Fear the light."

Darklore dropped the bird's throat, looking down as the creature remained on its knees. Darklore lifted his mace, and in a flash, the darkness he had created was sucked back into the weapon. Phenoraixa remained down, looking up as the mace sucked the black in as if a vacuum. Darklore looked down at the fallen hero, tilting his head. No words had to be said.

Phenoraixa was able to see the result his lava dome had on the demon though. All over his body, chunks of lava either still bubbled or cooled into a sort of mush. Parts of his body even burned yet. The bird began to stir again, but Darklore lashed out with his mace one again. This time, just as the blow came, twin bolts of demonic energy fired out, striking just as the mace did! Phenoraixa's head was engulfed in a shower of sparks and a flash of light before being flung to the ground, blood pouring out of his skull.

Darklore snarled in rage. "Give up." He demanded, lifting his foot and preparing to stomp it down on his damaged head.

[Deleted]

Darklore shoved his foot down, Phenoraixa turned over and opened his beak. With a loud eagle-like cry, a beam of flames erupted and shoved the foot back. The demon grunts as he stumbled back a step.
Just enough time for Phenoraixa to get to his claws and pull back. The demon gently snaps the Jaws of Death as if clapping. "You are a strong one, Phoenix. I/We will enjoy adding your soul to my/our every growing family. Maybe then, you will understand the bliss that I/We offer to you."
The demon then rushed at the bird, mace raised. Phenoraixa flapped his wings, pulling back as the mace came down and smashed into the dried magma and into the still liquid rock below. The satantic monolith of bone then fallowed up with the jaws of death, swinging the heavy skull hard and snapping at the phoenix. "Come now!" The momentum brough the creature full circle, stopping with the jaws opened and a Darkness Orb ready. "Be apart of the greatness of death itself!" And fired.

Perhaps that wasnt the greatest thing to say. Phenoraixas eyes flashed red. He landed, and kicked off the ground and at the Darkness orb. Flames engulfed his own body, turning him into a bullet of blazing sun like flames. he smashed, beak first, into the orb; which exploded violently. Instead of being tossed back, Phenoraixa was still going! Though, with some damage from the blast; A gash on his neck.
Too fast to react, Darklore found his helmet like skull being held onto by the strong talons. Moments later, the evil being was off the ground by severa-hundred feet. Without letting go, the Comet-Eagle did several foward summersaults, flames erupting from his tail and hitting the demons body.
By now, Darklore went hollow to avoid major damage. Only the boney armor was taking the damage. On the ninth rotation, Phenoraixa let go and sent Darklore hurtling toward the ground like a meteor! Phenoraixa fallowed a second after, claw out and still on fire. Before Darklore hit the ground, the claw was already on the Jaws of Death.
The skull-like hand first, Phenoraixa crashed the demon into the earth with the force of a bomb and created a crator big enough to bury any respectable Kaiju.

Phenoraixa shook his head to get his barings. His head rang like hell-bells. He hoped off and hovered back, and began to speak. "Hmph... I will never be apart of your meaninglus malice." He raised his saphire eyes to meet the demons sockets. "You think you are the most powerful demon, just because you call yourself the god of death and have some power. Let me tell you somthing. Death, IS NOT MALICE!" Flares erupted from his feathers and blazed into the sky. "Death is nature, death is another part of life, death is balance! You... Darklore..." Phenoraixa was smiling at the corners of his mouth. "You are just a spoiled child holding a gun, and you have no idea what to do with that gun, so you use it to get whatever you want. And when you dont get it, you throw your tantrums."
He took a deep breath. "True gods of death can see every mortals lifspan and day of death. True gods of death also keep the world in your, while you are in it for your own selfish reasons." Then he added sternly as raising both wings. "How very... Very immature..." He opened his beak and let lose a torrent of flames to burn the boney armor of Darklore.

[The Great MM]

The flames washed over Darklore, darkening the bones of fallen Gods and making the rubber-like flesh of the tyrant bubble and melt. The king of all evil snarled in both pain and rage as he began to stir. As a sea of fire blanketed him, the beast of the apocalypse sat up. Demonic energy surged through his entire body as another stream of fire made ash fall from his body.

The devil was eerily silent before thrusting his mace forward, launching twisting bolts of blue, black, and purple colors. Phenoraixa was taken by surprise as the bolts tore through his inferno, smacking hard into his bloody forehead! An explosion followed out as the bird lost altitude, but regained his composure, swooping around to the side.

Darklore stood up. "Foolish." He stated calmly, watching as the fire bird circled like a vulture. "I am not the God of Death." The demon declared, lowering his arms... "He is death." The absorbed souls of the fallen Gods declared in a sorrow unison.

As flames began to coat the guardian's body again, the Jaws of Death unlatched again, another orb of surging darkness growing larger and larger. The demon took aim, pretending as if he was going to fire so that the bird would actively dodge. The game went on for minutes as Darklore continued to aim and the fire bird channeled more firepower over its body.

Soon, unexpectedly, the bird turned on a dime, heading straight for Darklore! An eagle-like cry came from the winged warrior, but a cannon-like boom came from the demon! The darkness orb collided head-on with Phenoraixa! The bird's entire body was engulfed in a twisted show of darkness and he fell against the rocky ground, the fire he built up extinguishing.

Rolling his titanic shoulders, the devil's jaws shut and he walked closer ever-so menacingly. "It's useless to defy me." He stated, "Embrace the death."

He lifted the jaws of death and thrust the gigantic jaws down, biting into the back of Phenoraixa! The jaws were big enough to bite into the flesh above each shoulder, drawing countless gallons of blood that boiled on contact with the ground. The bird cried aloud in pain as the demon lifted his wounded body up. The death god brought the hero closer, looking into his eyes.

"In Taninim, a warrior. In Saberon, a leader. In Argus, a hero." He said coolly, "In you, a coward. How many have you killed. How many that couldn't even fight back."

Darklore's jaws applied more pressure, making the hero scream in pain once more. "You're no hero." The fallen voices declared within Darklore.

Without mercy, Darklore spun around and released the catch, throwing Phenoraixa away like a piece of used trash. The bird's body rolled across the uneven surface, loosing feathers before coming to a stop. "I don't think I'll even absorb your soul. I'll simply destroy it." He pointed his mace at the warrior, launching more bolts.

[Deleted]

The bolts struck the magnificant eagle and exploded, causing him to cry out in pain. He fumbled while getting up, folding his wings back as the demon stood there staring with what is assumingly a triumphant face for the damages he did.
Then he spoke. "Destroy a soul of an immortal that is reborn every time he dies... Even this would make my apathetic brother laugh." he groaned "and I though he was the only one that could give me a headach..."
Darklore was not amused. He just instead flung his mace, throwing more bolts toward the bird.

Phenoraixa erupted up like a rocket, fire comming from him to propel him up out of the bolts way. As he did, he summersaulted forward and dragged the trail of flames from behind him. A wave of flames crashed down on the black-hearted monstrosity.
He flung his Jaws of Death up to catch most of the flames, sheilding from most of it. Then he flung the mace upward and throwing more bolts
Phenoraixa twirled to the left, avoiding them, and as he did, his wing came around with a wall of flame that rushed for death kaiju.
Darklore turned hallow and protecting his black skin. His bones however were struck hard, making him stumble back. He turned tangable again right away and lifted the Jaws of Death, firing a Darkness Orb.
Yet the phoenix just twirled the way he came and avoidied it, bringing his other wing up. This time, the wing brought hot liquid rock from a nearby flow. This time, he had a new trick to try. Darklore turned hallow again, protecting his skin. The magma flowed through his bone armor. As it did, Phenoraixa pulled back slowly and took in a deep breath. The heat quickly left the magma and it soon hardened and tracked the left arm of the demon in the hard rock.

Darklore growls in anger, pulling hard on his arm. The bones that were always solid, now kept him stuck for the moment till his strenght could break free.
But no time. Phenoraixa lifted both wings, raising two columbs of fire that spiraled around his wings and created two massive walls of intense flame. "Demon, today you burn for your sins!" He brough his wings together hard, pulling both walls of flames to smash into Darklore...

[The Great MM]

The walls of fire came down like a waterfall, engulfing the ancient evil in a sea of hell. Spiraling plumes of fire and smoke from the ground. Phenoraixa circled above, calling out aloud as he watched the fires die down a bit, revealing Darklore standing amidst the chaos, entire form in a brilliant blaze.

"Fire. Is that all you got?"

With parts of his body still coated in rock from the cooled lava. His mace surged with demonic energy and twin bolts shot out, but not targeting the bird. Instead the bolts twisted and turned, coming back and striking the rock covering his arm. The rock exploded, splitting like egg shell and falling to the heated ground underneath Darklore.

Darklore stepped back, looking at his freed arm as the fires covering his body died. "Even fires die." He declared, pointing his mace up. Phenoraixa knew what was coming and flew around, but jagged bolts fired from the weapon, striking his left wing! With a loud cackle, the sun bird began to fall, smashing into the unforgiving ground like a meteor!

A few moments later, the bird sat up, shaking his head side to side to clear the cobwebs. When he turned around, Darklore stood, head tilted. The phoenix went to attack with a swipe of his wing, but the devil blocked the blow with his forearm. Darklore brought up his other hand and swung out, smashing his mace into Phenoraixa's ribcage! A sickening crack came from the feathered body as a spray of blood came from his beak!

The bird stumbled back, but Darklore's mace came again, smashing a bit lower than the last strike. Continuing to fall back, Phenoraixa cried aloud in pain. Before he got too much distance, Darklore's free hand reached out, gripping the back of his feathered head. With a yank, Darklore dragged Phenoraixa's head down and lifted his bone-covered knee, smashing it across the hero's forehead!

The guardian cried in pain as a fresh gash formed between its eyes. Phenoraixa fell to his wounded chest, gasping in pain as Darklore lifted his leg, ready to drive it down into the center of his back!

[Deleted]

Phenoraixa was struck hard in the back, shreiking out in pain. Darklore held his foot there, pressing down as he started speaking. "I gaurentee you, I will destroy your soul today." The voices echoed. "He will destroy your soul..."
The bird looked up with a challenging gaze. "And maybe boars will fly!"
Darklore pressed down harder. Phenoraixa gasped. He had to do somthing before somthing else was broken. A flash from his eyes, and a crack under Darklores foot erupted in flames, causing the demon to fall back as his leg sank into the magma.

Phenoraixa kicked off the rockey earth and took off, using the flames to jet himself to saftey for the moment.
The demon was irritated. It took a few seconds of struggling, but he pulled his leg out of the hole in the magma. His skin burned from the heat. His gaze turned toward the bird in the distance, and laughed sadisticly. "I do love a good game of cat and mouse! ...We love love a good game..." And off he went, jumping forward and using h is levitation to gain the distance.

Phenoraixa banked hard around mountains to keep distance and lose the demon. So far it was clear that direct attacks were not going to be enough to win this fight. He was goingto have to use more. Given he was surrounded by so much fire, he had a good chance and high hopes of victory.
Darklore was keeping pace. He landed on a cliff edge and called out in a mocking manner. "Oh Phenoraixa, come out and play with me... Play with us." Seemed the voices of children called loudest. "Its just a game of smash the birdie!" Fallowed by the pleasent laughter.
Phenoraixa huffed and landed on a ledge to catchh is breath. Safe for the moment, he was catchingh is breath.

Sensing that it was time, Darklore decided to bring up some more bad memories. "Oh how I/We do delight in looking to the past." Darklore chanted as he strolled along, twirling his mace. "Lets us recall the death of your mother..." the voices seemed to snicker and chuckle as Darklore told the fairy tail.
Phenoraixa tensed up, hearing the words echoe off the mountains and cliff edges.
"I/We do beleive it was so long ago, when you, your mother and brother were defending that one place... oh yes, Africa." He tossed the Mace up, catching as it feel and smashing a tower of dried magma into ruble. "Your mother, died before your eyes, as she was nearly killed by Thanatos..."
The birds feathers were ruffling up as the memories came pouring back.
"She was so hurt..." He slowly said. "So crippled, and so helpless... that Thanato's harem finished her off while you watched. You could have saved her... Grimm could have saved her. But she didnt. Oh why... why Phenoraixa, did you not?" He stopped, looking at his Jaws of Death as if admiring a pricless diamond. "You let her die..."

Phenoraixa had it and called out. "I was unable to get to her! Grimm was too."
Darklore had a pleasent tone. "Oh sure, then why do you blaim yourself?"
Phenoraixa shook his head. "Because... I could have burned hotter, brighter, stronger... I didnt..." His eyes flashed red and flames began to burn wildley around him.
"So it was your fault!" Darklore declared.
"Shut up, demon!" Phenoraixa flew up. "I will not be told down by the likes of you!"
"Then by all means big bird, come and shut me up."

Phenoraixa flew up and around the mountains. He spied demon standing at the base of a active volcano with cliff just above the demons head.
Darklore didnt spy Phenoraixa yet. He was still chanting on about Phenoraixas past, trying to mess with the sun-birds head.
Phenoraixa came in from the side, flames erupting fromh is very being as he shot in like a rocket. Darklore saw him comming in and turned to attack. Bolts of darkness erupted from the mace. Yet Phenoraixa barrel-rolled through them and threw out his talons!
The claws slammed into the Jaws of Death, finding its edges and holes. Using the momentum, Phenoraixa pulled the demon around with relitive ease. Darklore was sent into the cliff send with a loud crash.
Phenoraixa Hovered for a moment in visable pain. His ribs and head were sore and aching from the movements. Darklore stood up, shrugging off some debris that fell from the rocks.
The bird snorts. "You want to destroy me, come and get me!" He spat a large fireball at the demon and shot off above, toward the erupting mountain top as fast as he could.

[The Great MM]

The fireball slammed full-force into Darklore's head and shoulders, sending a wall of fire off from the rocky surface. The demon shouted in rage as more of his rubber-like flesh burned and chunks of his mask flew off, broken to pieces by the attack. By the time the smoke and flames cleared, Phenoraixa was right on course! As the bird got closer, Darklore snarled and shook his head, but remained on all fours like a lion waiting to pounce.

For both titans, time seemed to slow as Phenoraixa grew closer. But just as the blind rage carried the bird forward, the dark one waited patiently, carefully watching and timing...

Until the time was right.

His body leaped from the rocky ground, launching forward for a short burst of speed. He moved to the side, but reached out just as the sun bird passed. The demon caught the ankles of the hero, making a loud squawk come from its beak. As soon as he got hold, Darklore spun his body, turning Phenoraixa into a gigantic bat. As he spun, he lifted the bird up, and then with a single movement...

He turned Phenoraixa's massive momentum against him.

The bird was pancaked on the ground, wings spread as he was smashed down to the ground at Mach speed! A sickening thud rang loud as the creature was smashed on the ground, the rock splintering and shooting upward as the insides of Phenoraixa were scrambled. Darklore stepped back, growling ever-so softly as he watched blood flow from each corner of his beak.

"Don't worry son. You will see me again in death... in here." A voice, very reminiscent of the creature's mother, said from within Darklore. In the bird's weakened, painful state, it wasn't like his mother's, it WAS his mother's!

"Mot-"

Darklore's foot came down, slamming hard into the back of Phenoraixa's neck. The bird's eyes opened wide in pain as Darklore began grinding his foot, trying to snap the creature's neck bone. Just as he lifted his foot again, the other kicked out, punting the guardian's skull! Phenoraixa cried aloud in pain as he rolled onto his back, squirming in pain as pieces of rock, from when he was just slammed, embedded within his body...

[Deleted]

Phenoraixa stumbled to his feet...only to get struck in the back by some Darkness Bolts from the mace. He feel foward slightly, wobling unsteadily.

Darklore watched the bird, weak and pathetic. "Why do you not give up?" The voices echoed in behind. "Give into death." the demon walked after the injured bird, gripping his mace tightly.
As he got close, Phenoraixas fires plumed in a hot aura of flames and caused the demon to back away. The bird spoke. "..Give up... Never..." he shook his head and turned to face the evil force. "I know your weakness, Darklore..." his eyes bore into the death gods eyes. "Faith... and I will never, ever, give up hope and faith!" and the flames erupted violently, flaring a sphere of fire in all directions.
Darklore was sent flying back as the wall of fire shoved against him. He was thrown all the way back into the cliffside again, flames washing over his body as they past him. With a grunt of annoyance, he pulled himsel from the rocks. "This, is getting monotonus..."
Then he noticed the tornado of fire that swilring up into the sky. Phenoraixa had created a virtual firestorm... literally. The swirling vortex reached up into the clouds, and it came right for the demon!
Darklore jumped, using his levitation to try and escape. but it was too late. The blazing sprial caught the demon and yanked him into the rollar coaster of a ride! Around and around he was throwing, higher and higher! Since he was spinning in all directions, he couldent even tell which way was up, down, left, or right let alone even aim for the goodie two-shoes Phenoraixa.

After sevearl rotations, Phenoraixa came from the flames like a ghost and struck the demon and gave him a one way ticket out of the ride. Darklore found himsel rocketing into the ground, hitting hard and bouncing down the side of a steep mountain side.
Phenoraixa shot out of the top of the vortex of flames, pulling the twister behind like like a massive banner.
Darklore was still rolling when Phenoraixa came, preparing to put the demon threw another tumbling ride in the vortex like a load of cloaths in a dryer...
