It shouldn't have to come to this... Brock thought. But if I must, I'm not opposed to using my Swanna Song to stop the fallen mage.
"Are you sure? I'm not so sure anymore!" Maria cried to Kiseki. "Evergreen!" Perhaps it brought some comfort that she had a small army to accompany her, but she was very worried for the Kirlia's sake. Speaking of which, Evergreen watched the whole scene with Kirito and the Ariados Queen before her eyes. It appeared that Kirito was trying to take out the queen single-handed, but that clearly wasn't going to happen. Stop! You'll get yourself hurt! she cried telepathically. She even tried to hold the queen at bay with psychic power, but for some reason, it wasn't working.
He sudden snapped out of the trance. "Shut up. Do you really think I try to defeat it" he chuckled. "This little thing needs to do mt command to destroy your little friends. Now leave me alone" he shout it . Thw ariados seemed to be more bidding but it wasng enough. "Come on. This needs ro work somehow". (What did the swanna song again?)
(This came from the signups thread: Swanna Song--a very powerful song that will unleash a powerful effect unique to every minstrel at the cost of lowering your HP to 1--use this only in an emergency!) Kiseki was really worried about what was happening or what is about to happen. Everything seemed to make her tense, except for Chieri of course. The Altaria decided to come near its master to let Kiseki feel her fluffiness, which usually always calms Kiseki down. [Come on Kiseki, you need to trust Kirito] Chieri squealed. "I should," she replied, "I'm sure he can do it somehow."
(Other magic users can use the Swanna Song as well, with the same caution to use only in an emergency)
"I'm more worried for Evergreen, though! Where could she be? Don't tell me she followed Kirito into.... Oh my gosh, I don't want to think about it," Maria said. She kept the hilt of her sword close by as she followed the army. "If something happened to them..."
The group wound through the massive maze of foliage, desperate to destroy the Ariados Queen and possible purge he dark from the fallen mage. Even the forest seemed to be holding its breath.
Elsewhere, where the Ariados Queen was, Evergreen was having trouble using her psychic power on the queen. [Argh! Why won't you go down?!] Oddly, the Ariados Queen simply ignored her - for now.
"Stop interfering" kirito growled to evergreen. "Its your fault. I cant get this thing under control"
Evergreen stared at Kirito. What are you talking about?! It's not my fault that you had to wander on your own! Glad I could check on you before you could do something terrible! You can't fight her on your own! You'll get hurt!
Kirito only laughed harder. "You really do not get it do you?" He looked at her. "I want to control this beast. So your Maria and everyone else stay occupied untill I can get to that gaia witch. " as he shool his shoulders. "If they do not make ot in the process. It isnt my fault"
"Just then, the group arrived in time to see what Kirito was doing, and Evergreen trying to intervene. "We'll bind the fallen mage for now--focus on taking down the Ariados Queen." one of the mages smiled as they started casting a seal of holy magic....
Evergreen nearly cried when the group finally arrived and she teleported to Maria, and nearly crashing into her. Maria!!!!!!! "Oh, Evergreen! You're safe! And alive!" Maria said back. "Now what were you thinking, trying to defeat the queen with just Kirito?! You need all of us!" The Kirlia would have liked to respond, but combat wouldn't wait. Instead, she and Maria took up positions, with Maria drawing out her sword.
