This is the Second Battle in the "So You Want To Be An Archmage" Tournament
OmegaMan says [to kel] : be nice to the audience.... they decide the winner...
Kel says [to you] : tails
Lore applauds "ooh magic! I hope they make baloon animals!!"
Kel says [to omegaman] : wow, good PR skills.
You say [to kel] : Alrighty then, you go first
OmegaMan says : baloon animals, eh???
Jaxom shushes the audience, raises his staff, and signals for the duel to begin
Sabin tells you : So, what happens if we don't shush up and use tell, huh mister high and mighty?
You tell sabin : I'll release the hounds :)
Sabin tells you : Oh no, not the dogs! Or the bees! Or the dogs that have bees in their mouths so when they bark they shoot bees at you! Well, do your worst! :)
Jaxom secures his pouch by swallowing it when he sees hatter
Lore taps his foot impaciently....he wants his balloon animals!
Kel waits for the crowd to hush. The breeze rustles the leaves in the trees and helps those present cool off. Kel closes his eyes and murmurs something incomprehensible to almost everyone. His eyes begin to glow a dark blue and his whole body begins to shimmer and ripple with magic. His body begins to stretch and warp until the simmering ceases and the dark-blue glowing eyes of a Mercury dragon open and narrow at Omegaman.
The magestic beast, known as MoltenCore, leaps into the air on his wings of blinding silver. He spirals upwards and curves to face his opponent. He curls his wings just slightly so that the glare of the sun it focused into OmegaMan's unfortunate eyes. With his rival blinded at the moment, he rears his mighty head back and spits a large laser-like blast, the breath weapon of a mercury dragon, at his desired target. The air sizzles with energy as the laser bears down on OmegaMan.
Lore frowns due to the lack of balloon animals. :-(
OmegaMan waves at the beam of light. The light stops in mid-air. Then it gives off a small, whimpering sound and reverses course, striking the mercury dragon with the full force of its own weapon.
OmegaMan waves again and the dragon has suddenly polymorphed into a large congregation of multi-coloured, baloon animal *grin to lore*. The animals turn menacingly (yes, baloon animals can look menacing) towards kel. They begin to rub against each other, creating a large field of static electricity. Then, crackling with energy, the converge on kel, threatening to fry him like a strip of bacon.
Kel throws his arms up into the air and a thick barrier of rubber erupts from the ground. A nearbly flower shimmers magically and warps into a large porcupine which promptly explodes sending a massive amount of needles into the swarm of ballon animals. The animals explode with loud pops and the discharged electricity strikes harmlessly into the rubber barrier.
Kel throws his arms back down to his sides and the barrier sinks into the soil. He produces a small stone cylinder from his robes and holds it in his hands like a sword hilt. He twists it in his hands and a three and a half foot blade springs from within the stone cylinder. Kel's eyes glow dark-blue again and he murmurs "Ace Blade" and makes a deep slash in the direction of OmegaMan. As he does this, a blue flame erupts around the blade and shoots off of it in an arc of searing holy-flame which flares toward OmegaMan.
OmegaMan points at the blade. A humming sound fills the meadow. The blade begins to vibrate. Suddenly, it shatters. Pieces of the blade twinkle to the ground in power form.
OmegaMan waves his hand and the humming increases to a rumbling. The ground begins to heave and quake. The stones themselves topple. OmegaMan waves at the fallen stones, and they begin to gather, forming the shape of a large, stone person. The stone creature grabs a tree trunk from the nearby forest and wields it as if it were a club. He advances upon kel, swinging the club with malicious intent.
Mad_Hatter pats Omegaman on the back *i'm still here good buddy*
OmegaMan checks his belongs for missing items.
Mad_Hatter says : if you don't wanna spend the time to watch a spell duel, then don't come dudes and dudettes. It takes some people some time to type, get used to it or quit watching.
Kel sizes up the massive stone creature. He concentrates and hurls a massive teleknetic wave at the brute and it's smashes itself in the head with the tree trunk, splitting it's head in twain. With a hand motion, Kel traces a rune of growth in the air. The tree trunk takes root in the soil, firmly imobilizing the stone creature.
Kel traces another anicent rune in the air. The rune flares and floats forward to burn into OmegaMan's chest. From the center of the rune, a gray color creeps outward... Omega
Kel swears.
OmegaMan is turning to stone.
OmegaMan flashes the rune a hard stare. The rune glows gray even more intensely than before as its energy is pushed back onto itself. A burst of light and a grinding sound indicate the end of the rune as it is turned into stone instead of OmegaMan.
OmegaMan taps his staff on the ground. In front of OmegaMan, a large rift opens in the ground. The rift spreads, encircling kel. OmegaMan waves his hand over the rift and jets of flame shot high into the sky, forming a solid dome of fire over the rift. The dome begins to shrink, lowering its roof towards the ground as the rift widens, decreasing the size of the block of land kel has left to stand upon, and revealing the fiery pit that awaits kel below.
Kel puts his hands straight up into the air and begins to make wide arcs with them back to his sides. As he does so, the dome of fire above him begins to open and the block of land, which he stands upon, shoots into the air.
Kel lands on the ground gracefully a few moments later. From above, a rushing whistle of air can be heard as something very large and rather solid drops toward OmegaMan.
OmegaMan wonders what could possibly be dropped upon him for a moment. Then he decides that the best course of action would be to let kel deal with it. OmegaMan waves his hand. Reality twist and bends. Suddenly, kel finds himself to be the one upon which the object is about to fall.
Kel eeps as he realizes that he's just floating over the pit of hot magma. He quickly slides to the side and the huge chunk of falling earth plugs itself neatly into the hole.
Kel takes a spoon out of his pocket. He gently tosses it at OmegaMan...
But there is no spoon.
The illusionary image fades away to reveal a jagged lance of diamond going for OmegaMan's heart, only a few inches away.
Jaxom raises his staff higher into the air, as he does it begins to change into a checkered flag
OmegaMan nods to the diamond lance. It drops to the ground instantly and turns to coal.
OmegaMan points his staff at kel. You hear the sickening crunch of bones breaking and grinding as kel falls to the ground. Kel is beginning to shrink, in fact he is imploding in upon himself.
Mad_Hatter points at Jaxom's flag and it changes to a surrender flag
OmegaMan says : "there is no spoon" *chuckle*
Jaxom acks at his flag, snaps his fingers, and it changes into Falennor's Boxer shorts.
Mad_Hatter waves at the flag and it changes to Jaxom's hairpiece
Kel eeps in pain. His mind searches through the plains of time and reality for something really big, at last he finds it. He borrows some of Osnodon's ego and plants in inside his chest. The swelling "kiss my @$$ because I think I'm a god" aditude counteracts the imploding force of OmegaMan's spell. Kel stands up, and spits out the disgusting thing he just consumed. He turns to OmegaMan and bows gracefully.
Jaxom acks and pulls his rainbow clown wig off of his staff and puts it back where it belongs. as he does this, his staff becomes a checkered flag once more
Jaxom waves his flag
You say [to kel] : You're lucky that wasn't Blackie's ego, you'd be exploding right now :)
Kel and OmegaMan bow to the collected audience.
You shout : Okay! everyone TELL me your votes on who you think did the best
