Deo V Tribe

"Uuh..."

Deo stuttered as he noticed Itotia pressing her chest against his own, and once again he noticed that it wasn't the flat chest that he knew of before.

Face turning red as he felt her push up against him even more. "Uh-Uh.. Yeah. You do don't you." he managed to say as he noted the position that the two were in.

"Uh- yeah. Hugs right? W-Who doesn't love them." he said as he tried his best not to have a mental break down again. But he was certain that he was short circuiting.

His orange hue's frantically looked left and right as he tried to find a reason to flee. Anything. Anything at all! His eyes panicking as he looked all over until they latched onto Lex and their new friend. That was who was going to help him get out of this situation. Yes!

If Itotia had stayed ontop of him any longer, he wouldn't be able to restrain himself and he would literally cuddle their face off.

Somehow managing to slip away from Itotia, Deo darted over to the new guy and grabbed him by the shoulders not caring for anything else but getting this man into the arena.

"Hey. Look man, I don't know you but I want to fight you. You seem pretty capable yourself and I haven't had a good battle in a while. Will you fight me or not?" His question sounded more like he was demanding him to than asking for a fight however.

(Deo)
Itotia pouts a bit as Deo left. Did she do something wrong? A bit of insecurity filled her and she decided to distract herself with potion brewing.
(Itotia)
Spehyr looks the man up and down, slowly, his gaze hard, but not unwelcoming. He reached up, pulling the hem of his robe to the side to reveal a brand in the shape of an open palm, a flame centered on the image, the flame filled in with green flame. "I fight in self defense, my friend, and on the hallowed grounds of our temples. Usually I would make accomodations, but I'm afraid me and Lex here just finished going at it, and I'm quite exhausted myself--that's why we're here grabbing dinner. Either way, I wouldn't want to distract you from the beautiful young woman you've abandoned over there." His smile is kind, now, knowing. He casts a gaze over to the catlike girl, then back at Deo meaningfully.
(Speyhr)
Sul'Koth nods his head, smirking at the mans retort. A gentleman amongst them~
(Sul'Koth)
Itotia slithers behind Hue and pokes his lower back.
(Itotia)
Hue jumps up not realising Itotia had been so close
(Hue Janus)
Deo was obviously flustered. Face red and palms were sweaty, he needed to do something that could help him avoid talking to Itotia at the moment and his eyes practically shouted it at Speyhr.

But the man didn't listen, his eyes kept on Speyhr as he lifted up a green flame. But Deo was ignorant, he was stuck on his fight and all that he readied himself for was excuses coming from the man.

His grip tightened on the man's shoulders as he heard that Speyhr only fought out of self defense.

Deo's eyes lit up as he thought that the man who he was holding didn't know who he is. A smile came to his face as he stopped blushing. He was prepared to give this man something to fight for.

"Ooh yeah? I'll give you somethin-" he attempted to cut the Speyhr off but it didn't work as the man continued on with his speech.

It was the first time someone had done that to Deo, which caused him to freeze up with confusion. Listening on to what Speyhr spoke of. Deo released the man from his grip and just stared at him. Amazed and confused all at the same time, he couldn't believe at much he was thrown off guard.

He was going through a mix of emotions as he stared cluelessly at him. He had nothing to say as he couldn't quite get angry at him. He had brought up Itotia, the man was tired from fighting with Lex and had come over to eat and go home. The way he carried himself, the way he pronounciated his words, the manner in which he spoke. Everything that came from him was gentlemen like. They hadn't stuttered or shown an ounce of fear.

Taking a step back he took in a deep breath.

Exhaling, Deo looked up at Speyhr. With a friendly smile and tone, he said. "Wow.. Um well, ahh wow.. Amazing, you are truly.... just wow...." He'd chuckle embarrassingly afterwards. Running his hands through his hair and fidgeting with his hands. He'd then pick up where he left off.

"My bad. We've clearly gotten off on the wrong foot. Um, my name is Deo. Yours?" he asked as he reached out with his left hand. Prepared to shake the man's hand with a firm grip.

Whether or not Speyhr went to grab his hand. Deo threw a right hook aiming straight for the man's jaw line.

Throwing all his weight behind the blow, he was sure to connect it somehow. If it did, Deo would spit on the man's face. Grabbing his right wrist with his left hand, he'd roll his fist and say "Don't try to calm me down with your pathetic ass words. I'm not in the mood for your bullshit. The next time you come to me with some lame ass excuse. Prepare to lose your fucking arms."

However if the man had dodged the hit. Deo would smile and stand back. Complimenting the man on dodging his attack before getting into an all out brawl with him.

The sad part was, out of all the emotions he was going through. Wrath defeated them all and ended up coming out.
(Deo)
Hmm. Well, this just wouldn't do. This wasn't the first time he had encountered a man who had let wrath into his heart, and it wouldn't be the last. He had reached to shake the man's left hand with his own, but saw the hook coming from a mile away. The green flame of his brand flaring, though it was hidden beneath his robes, his own right hand tearing through the air, his feet shifting him into a 45 degree pivot towards Lex, his wrist catching the edge of his fist and channeling it past his right side so his aggressor would end up cross-armed and facing away from him. Continuing into his pivot to come to a rest with Lex at his right, Sul at his left, Hue on his right flank, and Ito behind him, surrounded by innocents. If the man was to attack him here, he was truly lost. His grin had faded, but he didn't speak mockingly, his voice quite neutral. "Impressive force behind that, I'll admit. From that blow alone, I might not've been able to continue--I may look young, but I'm definitely not in my prime."
(Speyhr)
Xero had just finished mininig and doing other things to excuse his absence when he waltzes back into TouChan. Only to see a group of people among them someone he did not know. What the hell was going on? Were they under some kind of attack?

Walking right into the midst of things Xero would give a customary glare towards Deo, he had still not gotten over the whole incident with Naetoma and no matter what anyone said he was still planning on finding a way to make him pay.

A cold glance is cast toward the outsider before he turns to Hue and Itotia.

"What's going on?"

He wonder in his typical cold tone. Of course those in TouChan would know by now he was probably putting on a show since a stranger was present.
(Xero)
In the midst of whispering to Hue of dirty things like potions that the woman could provide for the tribe, her attention was once again stolen by Deo. Once again, he acted quiet violently and punched a man whom he just met!

A few blinks before Itotia actually processing what happened. It was like his fight with Naetoma all over again. If Deo was willing to hurt someone he knew that badly, this man could very likely met a fate far worse.

Going solely off of instinct, the Nagual approached Deo.

"D--Deo what the hell are you doing..?!" Itotia shouted-- Even using a swear word.

(Itotia)
  Speyhr simply pats Lex on the shoulder, reassuringly, hearing the pain in her voice. Clearly this either wasn't normal, or tragically so; either way, it was surely causing undue strife in the tribe.
(Speyhr)
 Lex looks twards Speyhr as he places the hand on her shoulder.
she looks very distressed and worried.
(Lex Cypher)
Throwing all his weight into one hook. Deo knew that he was going to hit his target. But as the seconds went by. He felt nothing. He felt so confounded and confused as his right arm flew to his left side and spun him in place. Wind breaking as the force he used scattered it into the surroundings.

He expected a bone crushing feeling, but instead he got nothing. Landing on both feet, he faced the group that stared back at him. His wraths became replaced by a raw sense of confusion. He was trying to understand what had happened.

Slowly. He'd unravel his arms and raise his right hand before him as his left dropped to his side. Staring at it, bewildered as he opened his fist. Then closed it, opening his fist, and then closing it again.

Lost in his thoughts, he couldn't seem to comprehend what had happened. "....."

With Deo lost in his thoughts, everyone was going crazy. Xero had joined the group and seemed to be upset about his actions, Lex was perplexed, Hue and Sul were watching him cautiously, and the old man was reassuring Lex. But he wasn't paying attention to the excitement that was going through the crowd. He was still focused on how he missed his hit.

D--Deo what the hell are you doing..?!

His eyes lifted up.

His orange hue's went to Itotia as she seemed frightened at his actions. Which instantly made him feel guilty as he was frozen in place. All eyes on him, all on him as everyone couldn't tell what he was about to do next. Everyone was trying to figure what to do, all trying to figure out he'll do.

Deo was a wild card, he knew this and clearly did the rest. But that didn't matter as he melted at the sight of Itotia being scared. He wanted to reach out and wrap his arms around her. Tell her that everything was going to be okay as he gave her one of those good ol' hugs that they'd have every now and then. Comforting each other as if there wasn't a care in the world.

Hesitant to take a step forward. He said " I-I....."

But he stopped. Looking past Itotia, he saw the old man staring at him. Calm as ever as they tried their best to comfort Lex.

That was all that was needed to set Deo aflame.

Fire exploded from him as it covered him in a vortex of flames. "......." His image was in the form of a silhouette because of the dancing flames that covered his figure. Reaching for his hilt, he ripped it out and held it horizontally to his side.

Not saying a thing, his eyes were locked on Speyhr. Tunnel visioned on his prey, he was prepared to rip off that old man's arm and beat him with it until his wrath was satisfied.

The only problem with that was, his wrath could never be satisfied.....
(Deo)
Xero watches as Deo seems to hesitate and then suddenly explodes into flame. Xero recognized the look in his eye, he sensed the feeling that Deo was emanating. Rage..but it went way beyond just rage. This was something more. Something darker.

Xero knew that if they didn't defuse the situation then they would probably have to fight Deo, and mad as Xero was at the man he couldn't bring himself to actually cause harm to another tribesmen. Xero may hate most people but those he considered allies were under protection, and like it or not Deo was indeed an ally.

Xero draws his staff and holds it his side, then he steps forward. One might think he was going to attack, but his stance was all wrong for that. It was clear he had only drawn the weapon for protection in case things went bad.

Vines summon behind him but they stay behind him and don't move. Then he does something everyone probably wasn't expecting. He talks.

"Deo, look I know your angry for whatever reason but we're all here to help you. Stop this now before things get out of hand we all end up doing something we might regret. Just drop your magic and walk away, for all our sakes"
(Xero)
Once the man had burst into flames, Speyhr nodded. His gaze wasn't angry, or vengeful; only disappointed. Sorrowful. To see another man fall to wrath was always painful to him. Grabbing the hilt of Zeal, a gift from one of his first friends here, he paused, watching the nature magic of Xero come to life. If this could be resolved without violence, that would be a huge weight off of Speyhr's heart. Looking out at the tribespeople around him, he took a moment to feel something warm, as it was so important to do; gratitude. These people, who hadn't even known him, have jumped to his defense. Perhaps this truly was a home for him?
(Speyhr)
 Lex nods with a stern look but not without fear in her eyes.

"Deo please, reconsider your actions."

Lex with a whisper says the name Egor as her blade apears from the darness of the night.She assumes her familiar guardian like stance sword placed into the ground.
(Lex Cypher)
Itotia could feel her body tremble a bit. This unfiltered rage was foreign, so random and sporadic. Being someone who didn't face the dangers of Agartha head on and kept herself occupied with her studies and crafts-- This.. This was too much.

Standing before Deo, she froze yet watched his movements carefully in fear of his next move-- He moved closer... A hug? Suddenly, she felt his embrace and sighed in relief. However, the moment was short lived. Deo exploded once more with anger. The Nagual stumbled back as flames consumed his very figure once he stepped away.

Emerald eyes watched the scene begin to unfold.. How did this happen? Xero jumped in and vines surrounded him. No, no. The last thing she wanted was for Deo to be harmed. That couldn't happen again.

Once more, she looked to Deo who took his focus from her and onto Speyhr. What did she have? Not a plan of course but a reckless idea fueled by the urge to not have this explode into something bigger than it already was.

Gulping and deciding to take things into her own hands as least violent as she could, the swift Nagual threw herself at Deo and wrapped her arms around his. She locked him in and tugged him back as hard as she possibly could. The flames around Deo raged yet she didn't care. It burned and hurt like hell yet she stayed and kept pulling him back.

"Deo! Stop this now!" She yelled as tears welled in her eyes from both the pain of the fire and the intense emotions she felt. Of course, the woman didn't want any harm to Speyhr. All she saw was the man enter and Deo explode with such an unnecessary rage.

She brought herself closer to Deo while using more strength she didn't have to keep him away from Speyhr.

"C-Calm down! Please..!"



(Itotia)
For the most part Hue had been relatively in and out of attendance, the last bits he really catches are Deo swinging at the elderly man, which he hadn't altogether had much of a problem with, a punch was a punch after all. Then Itotia had been getting involved and Hue resigned himself to simply leaning against the hut an eye or two flickering on the scened every so often.

Smooth as could be, until the flames ignited around Deo, an explosion was heard as well. Hue sighed before leaning himself against the hut making his way back over to the group.

'Could it not be a simple day' he thought to himself.

Before long he was just about where everyone else was, about to make his way before Deo when Xero seemed to take the initiative. It seemed like everyone was starting to step up to the proverbial plate. Hue stood behind Lex trying to get a proper line of sight on Deo.

'You don't have to do this Deo we can simply just allow the man toleave' He turned to his side.

'He probably doesn't have a permit regardless so he needs to be on his way'

Hue watches as Itotia leaps onto Deo, pleading with him, he could only hope that would work.
(Hue Janus)
Silent as ever. Deo had reverted to his old ways. His kill switch had been flipped on once again. It had been so long since then, that he'd forgotten it about it. However, the only thing he felt was the uncontrolable wrath that ran through his veins and the damage he was going to unleash upon Speyhr.

Unconsciously, Deo took a step forward. Then moved his other foot infront of the other. Xero jumped in front of Speyhr to protect him but Deo didn't see that. All he saw was something blocking his way. But that wouldn't stop him as he looked past it and focused on Speyhr. He wasn't going to let them out of his sights. Not even for a second.

"Move..." he threatened as he stopped his advancement.

He'd given them all a chance, but Xero seemed locked and place and didn't plan to move anytime soon. As did Lex and Hue. Deo paused before acknowledging that Xero and the others made their choice. Raising his weapon vertical to his body and without hesitation, Deo went through the movement to cut through the man to get to Speyhr. Nothing was going to get in his way from slaughtering Speyhr It didn't matter if it was Hue, Lex, Naetoma, Kaii, or even Iztla, no one was going to stop him.

"...!"

A wild Itotia appeared and wrapped their arms around him. Preventing him from bringing his arm down to attack Xero. Furiously he looked down to see who the fuck dared to halt his movement. But then he saw it, looking straight back at him.

Tears poured from their eyes they yelled at him, begging, pleading him to stop as they were hurting themselves in the process. Instantly he noticed that his flames were hurting her, burning their very skin. He stopped.

The flames extinguished themselves as he looked down at Itotia with fear in his eyes. He had hurt his Itotia, the cute little fur ball that had always been by his side. The one person that looked past his wrongs and loved him for who he was, even though he pushed her away several times before.

The one person that he never wanted to hurt was Itotia, but here he was. Hurting her with his own flames. Guilt stabbed at his heart. He felt as if he was being stabbed over and over again with an heated iron poker. But even then, that was no where near the level of pain that stung at his heart for hurting her.

Droppings his arm to the side. He looked at Itotia with watery eyes. Pained at what havoc he has wrought as he lifts his left hand to Itotia's face. His hand shakes as it gets closer and closer before it touches her face.

"M-M.." he stutters as he hopes that Itotia could forgive him for him harming her, for him to place her in harms way.

"Move."

Fire combusted once again around his form, swallowing him whole as he could hear what he assumed to be Itotia's screams over the roaring flames. His left hand smacked Itotia out of his way and to the side as he raised his blade once more at the group.


(Deo)
 Itotia squeezed Deo tight. The flames ate at her skin and burnt her robes yet she didn't care. She kept herself there until, eventually, the flames died down. Tears dripped down her cheeks as she looked up at Deo who seemed to calm down.

Her entire body ached and she struggled to keep herself up. Only will power kept her steady as Deo reached his hand out to her. Emerald eyes watched as his hand trembled. This.. This rage. Itotia could feel it radiate off Deo's very being even though his hand was mere inches away.

Chocolate cheeks reddened as she panted. The pain began to truly sit in. With every millimeter closer Deo's had got, she felt herself wince. She didn't expect anything bad to happen but contact with her skin in such a state felt painful.

Eventually, as the seconds passed, her breathing steadied and she looked at Deo with hopeful eyes. Her attempts weren't futile in the end then? Aside from brewing potion, forging weapons, and writing runes, was she actually useful in the lives of her tribesmen?

A smile etched on her face.

More seconds...

Time felt like it slowed down. Seconds felt like minutes, or hours, or even days. Itotia took in this moment and tears welled once more.

Finally, her insecurities felt to subside--

Once more, Deo exploded with rage and targeted it at all. Flames erupted and consumed him and in turn her. Loud screeches came from the Nagual as she was once again set ablaze. The pain was unbearable to someone who never lifted a finger to anyone. Despite the pain and how much she wanted to let go-- She couldn't. She refused to. She wouldn't allow any harm to come to Deo or the older man if it could be avoided and projected on her.

That is-- Until a large hand met her cheek.

Smack.

The force was enough to make her release Deo and fall back to her butt.

Silence......

.....

All she wanted to do was help, to stop this unnecessary conflict, to calm everyone down yet she was the one who was truly down. Her legs curled in and her head hung low. Small hands timidly met her face. Her body trembled yet no sound was heard just yet. Dark ears drooped as her head lowered more and more. Soft sounds of weeping and sniffling came from the woman yet she sat firmly on the floor and didn't mutter a single word.
(Itotia)
Deo seemed to calm down once more in the embrace of Itotia. All seemed like it was going to be ok, just as Xero was getting ready to block a strike from the others sword too. But then it all went even further south. For some unknown reason Deo exploded once more.


SMACK!

The sound seemed to reverb through the area. Xero watched as Itotia was tossed back from the force of the blow. All was silent save for the near unhearable sound of Itotias sniffles.

Xero blanches for a moment and then raises his own hand to his face where a single tear had begun to fall.

What the fuck was going on....

Xero turns to Hue but keeps an eye on Deo.

"I'm sorry Hue but it looks like he won't respond to reason. We can't let him hurt anyone else, I think we need to detain him"

Xero wanted badly to check on Itotia but he had to keep focus on Deo. His pale blue eyes cast once more onto the swordsman, his staff no longer at his sidebut raised now at the ready.

It was clear from his clenched fist that he was holding back...if this went on for much longer there might be two raging fighters instead of just one.
(Xero)
The detrimental force of anger that had been eating away at Deo was slowly quelled, tears slid down the man's cheeks and he seemed to truly regret what it was that hae had done, all was indeed not lost on this day within Tochan. Could have been how the story ended, however with the flames that purged whatever purity had been in the air, Deo's fist clenched before swooping it through the air connecting it with Itotia to knock her out of the way.

The smell of burning hair and bits of flesh worked its way into the surrounding air, and Hue's eyes narrowed on Deo. Xero's words were heard, and Itotia's grief was taken into account. Hue hadn't wanted to speak anything he would have said would simply go against his training, instead he took a deep breath, pooling his emotions together, whatever anger and frustration he was feeling could have been put to the side for now, his focus was on settling Deo the only way the man understood.

He approached Xero's side, a slow methodical heat that burst itself into a roaring fire, once Hue held his weapon, his eyes unwavering from Deo, hopefully he didn't have to tell anyone the reason they would need to move out of the way, this was going to likely get a little messy.
(Hue Janus)
Lex Watching the events go down stands firmly on her ground. The Shadows from the surroundings pooling to her befor crawling up her body and enveloping her form, darkening her features and hair. Her blade writhed in darkness pulses in the ground. Shes ready for anything that might come her way from deo, her face still stoic and strong. She was no stranger to pain.

Intangeable whispers come from the shadows forming around her. This was going to be a bad day...
(Lex Cypher)
Speyhr, looking over that final display, knows that there's no going back now. The monk doesn't have any fancy flames, or plants, or crawling darkness, or whispers of insanity; he only draws the blade from his back, ready to defend himself, as always. As was His will. Saying a final prayer to the Grey One himself, he drops his laser focus onto Deo's form.
(Speyhr)
The smell of fighting was like no other, the sweat that formed on all the competitors as they prepared themselves for whatever threat was to come, it was beau...No...Spectacular. Hue himself could not fight that feeling, that thrill that was invoked from him during combat.

Metal leaving its sheathe, a familiar sound that he had grown accustom to hearing from his matches with Deo, and while he might have foreseen this day coming he hadn't predicted it to be at all so soon.

Four of them readied against Deo, the flame wielding swordsman, bent on laying his sword deep within the flesh of those that opposed his decision against Speyhr. Hue's attacks were slow and from the outer rim, while most of them seemed to prefer a more face to face approach with the swordsman Hue knew it best to at least cripple what movements he could before attempting an assault.

And so he did, shifting around the forestry arena, with quickened speeds he made his way to Deo bands ofenergy in tow as the slung from around his wrist, shooting off in hopes to latch to Deo and subdue him how it could. Pelting him with a flurry of ki blasts before jumping out of the midst of it, repeating a few similar tactics until eventually the man had been beaten, his fury had been seemingly quenched from his lack of energy. Hue watched on waiting to see what his Ally's had done and seeing how they had taken to their injuries.
(Hue Janus)
 Xero readies himself, vines and staff and flame and darkness all coming to his aid. The others by his side Xero felt sure they could handle this. Like Hue Xero knew it was best to stay back so he did just that letting his vines do most of his damage.

At times it was close but Xero was able to skirt around and keep himself healed enough to finish the fight without falling. He would never admit it but the rush of battle brought a great thrill to his mind.

It was over.

Xero sheaths his staff and desummons his vines but stays at the ready as he starts to catch his breath.
(Xero)
 Lex doing her best to keep up with deo lunges and swings with her sword Egor in hand, doing her best to restrain herself from dealing any serious injury she lets the shadows do most of the work only aiding them as a vessel for there power. she stabs the sword down intot eh earth in several places casueing the darkness to well up on the feild of battle.

After Deo was defeated she placed her sword in the ground once more.
(Lex Cypher)
Smacking Itotia to the side. Deo had his arm raised at Xero, bringing it down. He planned to cut the man into two, then he'd advance to Speyhr. His eyes were lost in the calm seas that swallowed everything. A menacing aura vibrated off his body.

Everyone readied their weapons. Hue, Lex, Xero, and Speyhr were already on the move.

In some part of Agartha, a leaf hit the ground.

Xero had managed to evade his take, but it didn't matter to him as he dashed by them and headed for Speyhr. His eyes blazed with the sinister magic that had overcame him and fueled his wrath for the man.

Raising and bringing hi blade down diagonally upon the man's chest. His blade sliced through his collar bone to their waist. Taking another step forward, he threw his left fist towards the man's face. His fist connecting with Speyhr's jaw as he felt the satisfying bone crushing feeling.

His eyes locked on Speyhr as he watched the man fly through the air spinning before crashing into Lex's shop.

Eyes his grew with hatred for the man, taking another step. He jumped after him. But something snatched him back. A vine slithered around his leg and slammed him into the floor before dragging him back. Cutting away at the vine, he stood up and went after Speyhr again, but was stopped once more.

Unable to move from his spot, something burned his chest painfully. "AAARGHHH!!!!" he roared as he fell to his knees. Both arms dropping to his side as he looked up at the sky, cursing the world for putting him through this hell. The pain was coming from his chest. It felt as if his soul was being ripped out of his body.

Throwing his blade to the side, he clawed away at the source of this new found pain. Tearing his shirt and plate of armor off in order to get that burning sensation. But it wouldn't subside, no. So he digged more and more. His hands became bloodied as he clawed away at his skin until green light burning brightly on his chest blinding him.

Falling on all fours, his breathing labored as he finally got a good look at his chest. The wrath subsided once again as he stared at the branded mark on his chest. 'What... happened.?' he thought as his eyes grew bewildered. The burning sensation was still there but it wasn't killing him like it was before.

Once he found the strength to, he sat back up and looked at his hands. He saw blood all over his hands and began to wonder if it was his or someone else's. He'd then notice that his the mark that was placed upon his was covered with blood. He was losing alot of blood from the injury but he wondered what caused such a wound. His eyes lifted off his chest as he begun to wonder what he had done. Observing his surroundings, he saw that someone had flew into Lex's shop, breaking the front walls as they caved in. He'd then see Lex, Hue, and Xero raising their weapons at him. 'What was going on?'.

His eyes finally landed on Itotia as his heart dropped. They were laying on the floor, crying. It had seemed as they had givin up as they dared not to move when a battle that was taking place. He reached out with his left hand towards Itotia as he began to ask her what was wrong. Why she she was crying.

But as he raised his left hand towards Itotia. Images flashed before his eyes.

It was an image of her in his arms, her comforting him as he did her. Then an image of her burning and screaming appeared. Then his hand against her face, and then an image of her on the ground far away. The images clouded his mind as his mind ran at a thousand miles per hour. He wrath was calmed only for a second before it started up again. And it was all because of Speyhr.

"AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" he yelled as fire exploded around his body once more.

Pushing himself to a stand, Deo weakly stood up. "You... hurt.. Itotia.... All... your... fault...." he said quietly.

"You... hurt..." he began to repeat as he slowly walked towards the location where Speyhr crashed at.

"SHE'S HURT BECAUSE OF YOU!" he yelled before running towards the shack with his right hand shooting outwards towards his sword. Unconsciously he used wind magic to send his blade flying in his direction as it spun in the air before he gripped the hilt and continued his assault after Speyhr. A he gotten to closer, he was stopped. Before he could destroy the entire shop with Speyhr in it. He felt a vine slither around his leg again and slam him into the ground. Dragging him away from his target.

Screaming in rage, Deo turned on his back as he was being dragged away and slashed away at the vine. But more followed suit as the erupted from the ground, throwing debris everywhere. Violently he slashed away at them and burning the ones he wasn't quick enough to cut, he fought back against the onslaught. Smoke filled the air as the vines became burned to ashes.

As Deo fought off the vines, a series of energy blast came flying out from behind and rained down ontop of him as if it was a hail storm.

Hammered by the attack, it stopped him only for a second before he swiped away at the surrounding the cut at what ever threatened to attack him. But that didn't matter as an energy beam came from afar and sent him flying towards a wall, pinning him long enough for Xero's vines to finally constrict his movements and hold him into one place.

His chest had once again burning him with green flames as he struggled back. He felt something trying to be pulled outside of him, but he wasn't allowing it. He was fighting with it as he struggled in place. With a bloodied cry, he his voice screamed out in pain as he was finally locked down, he was beatened. The brand on his chest was burning the hell out of him and he was seriously outmatched.

But even then he couldn't give up. The thoughts of Itotia being hurt. Her lying on the floor crying. It was all Speyhr's fault, if he wasn't here to begin with. None of this would happen.

Feeling himself being consumed farther and father into the malicious aura that was held within him. Depravity radiated from his body, slowly but surely. He managed to break free from his restraints. The second feet touched the floor once more. He rushed back at Speyhr with his sword dancing wildly by his side. But this time he realized that he had to fight against his obstacles before he got to his main course. But that wouldn't be a problem for him, they'd just be his appetizers.

Fighting against Hue, Xero, and Lex was no easy feat. Being hammered from all sides as his body became burnt, bloodied and bruised. But all the pain that he would've felt became numb. He couldn't feel pain anymore. The only sensation that he felt was the anger heheld towards Speyhr. The wrath that he was going to unleash upon him once his hands were tightly around his neck!

His first target to bring down was Lex however.

Finally getting close enough to her, he sent a fist flying towards her gut. Breaking what armor she had as his fist bore into her stomach and lifting her up. He'd then reach out and grab them by their head, pulling on their hair as he slammed her into the ground causing a crater to erupt in his wake.
