Exodus

[Mechanical-Menace]

No sooner had Chris called for him, Emile was thrown through a window. He was followed by a stream of Negativity that flowed back into Nihil.

[~XIII~]

Chris watch his friend get throw out the wing and lunged for Nihil, who's Keyblade was still in Mirage's shoulder. He thought maybe if he attacked him now, he might get a hit or two in.

[Mechanical-Menace]

Nihil quickly released his weapon, but still took the force of the blows, or so it seemed. "You're just too slow." he sneered standing a few feet away from Emile, who was still on the ground. He took a large step forward, and brought his other foot right into Emile's midsection. The force sent him hurdling towards Chris and Mirage.

[~XIII~]

Chris braced himself, hoping to catch Emile when he came sailing over.
~~~~
Mirage braced him self behind Chris so he could catch Chris if chris fell.

[Mechanical-Menace]

Nihil quickly appeared between the boys. He then jerked Void Seeker out of Mirage's shoulder, then rolled out of the way just as Emile came crashing toward them.

[~XIII~]

The impact sent chris sliding back, but he didn't fall. He laid Emile down carefully, and casted Curaga. When he turned to heal Mirage though he realized that a light realm Curaga would only make it worse on the Heartless. "Karas! Your apprentice needs healing and I can't do it myself!" he yelled.

[Mechanical-Menace]

"Thanks, man." said Emile standing up.
-------
"Mirage, just cover yourself in Darkness." called back Karas.
-------
"If this is you being stronger than a month ago, then I would of easily killed you at my birth, let alone now!" mocked the Unversed.

[~XIII~]

"I would if I thought I had time." Mirage called back. "I'll get over it." he said, returning to his offensive stance, wincing a little.
~~~~
"You haven't even really see me attack." Chris called back to Nihil. "I've been on defense this whole time."
~~~~
Mirage waited for a moment before launching himself, almost unseen at the great Unversed. When he was behind him, he brought his Keyblade at the back of Nihil's head.

[Mechanical-Menace]

Nihil seemingly took the blow, falling to his knees. "Nope!" he yelled, using another afterimage. He was behind Mirage, facing away from him. He quickly spun around, bringing a backfist toward the Heartless' ear.

[~XIII~]

Mirage ducked and swung up from the ground, that way he'd either hit Nihil now, or at the topside and downswing of his swing if he did the after image.

[Mechanical-Menace]

There was a sick snapping sound from the Masked Man's arm. He backed away, his elbow bent at an unusual angle. "Good shot." He grabbed his wrist and jerked it toward him, snapping the bones back into place. "But not good enough." he laughed. "You want to see something cool?" he asked as he brought his Keyblade up.

[~XIII~]

Mirage jumped back and went on the offinsive. "No one really, but you are going to show me anyway aren't you?"

[Mechanical-Menace]

"Yeah, I am. It's like you know." chuckled Nihil. Negativity began to flow off of him and swirled around Void Seeker. "I call this 'Negative Raid.'" He threw his Keyblade, spinning it vertically along the ground, carving out its path. The weapon seemed to have a mind of its own, twisting and turning in seemingly random directions.

[~XIII~]

Chris paniced and grabbed Mirage to pull him away. He knew the Negitivity would eat the Heartless up and didn't want to chance that. Quickly he pulled Mirage to him, standing in front of him like a sheild.
