AW 1

[16:24] Away from Alabastre after visiting his little sister, the quarry used as a short-cut for his return trip back towards Nysea. Although, his steps slowed to a crawl as a pair appeared ahead of him.

One familiar, and the other unfamiliar. Although the fur, the size of the wolf demon fully catching his attention. Another demon stumbled upon, and the same type that had previously harmed his sister.

"Yuri.."

A flicker of his gaze shifted towards the familiar face. The handle of Pyralis's mithril blade was further tightened around by gloved fingers as he came to a stop.

"Is this the wolf demon? Or was the other one telling the truth."

Fiery emerald orbs turned back onto Amarok. Locked upon the demon's form as he questioned Yuri.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:27] Stumbling by luck upon a Demon was often regarded as the bad kind of luck. Fortunately enough the young Cadet wasn't alone in his search for success, being left with Pyralis to stumble upon the pair of them before any words were even exchanged.

A small, meek nod is offered.

"Y-Yeah.. Um.. I-I think it's the one that ran from me."

They all looked the same to him. A hand reached up to his massive, oversized weapon. He had to be prepared.
(Yuri)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:34] Heavy pants were taken. Ever since his split up with the young master due to... Dangerous events, he had been on his own. Trying to track down the others whereabouts. Outside of his hideout, it was one battle after another. It was clear to the two humans, this demon wolf was indeed on the brink of death.

His right, and newly scarred eye was still bleeding slightly. Letting deep red droplets of blood hit the pavement. As well as his occult was a bit weakened... Due too, holy magic in his circuits. And poison. Any other wouldn't have been able to withstand such injuries...

Yet, he wasn't about to give up here.

It was his job to fulfill, his duty, and cleanse. Any abnormality. Even if it meant giving up his own life in the process. Ember hues lurched between the two, before occult flames flared to life. Consuming all too near to him. Yet, in this case acting as a shockwave... To push the two back from him.

"...Ran from? Heheh… HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Then, you're first on my list."

And without any further hesitation, he launched at Yuri. Yet there was still time for the other to intervene if they wanted too..
(Amarok)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:38] The young boy may have been afraid of what was to come, but when was he not? Part of becoming someone more brave, someone able to fight and contend on a greater level was to move forward even when your body wanted to stay put.

Yuri's eyes went shut for a moment as the beast leapt forth, yet his hands both grasped upon his giant sword. Before he even knew it he'd thrown forth a swing at Amarok, a decisive one to engage him. This was the beast he'd first attempted to defeat a long, long way back. Two years or so. He wasn't going to bow down before it just for that, no.

Today was the day Yuri would face those fears. Display bravery. For Eliza's sake. For his King. For his Princess. For his friends.

Pyralis was there, too. There was no need to be afraid, was there?
(Yuri)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:40] Weakened already.

The injuries were quickly taken note of within the mind of Pyralis. Perhaps the stars themselves had given the pair guidance to coming upon the already injured wolf demon.

There would be no mercy from Pyralis. If the demon ahead of him was the one to truly harm his little sister, any sympathy that could of potentially formed from the plight of the beast was eradicated.

A perfect opportunity for the cadet as his blade slowly made itself know, pulled out of his sheath and arcing slightly through the air as he took a step forward.

The assault of Amarok, the sudden bout of seemingly insanity as his voice roared out. It only sped up the assault of Pyralis, sped up his attempt at intervening and stopping the launching wolf-demon from grasping Yuri.

"Yuri, watch out!"

Pyralis lunged, fire taking form across his blade in an attempt to cut deep into the side of Amarok.

[16:45] {Lost Dangerous RPB against Amarok}
[16:45] * You have been awarded 1 Roleplay Points! *
[16:45] ** Amarok has inflicted an injury upon Yuri. ("Temporary Injury", "Temporary Injury", "Temporary", "Duration: Medium (4 days)") **
[16:53] Pyralis says, "that's gone."
[17:03] A change of heart for the boy? Quite honorable of him. Now, Amarok could feel even better while ripping the young human child to shreds. But, the kid did put up a good fight against the demonic wolf. But he wasn't good enough.

Occult flames surged through out the area. rippling beneat his feet and sucking the life force of all the living things around him. Trees wilted, grass died, flowers decayed, critters felt the pleasantry of Death. All for the sake of power. For the sake of something even greater.

For the sake to kill, to cleanse, and to repeat.

Amarok canted his head up, and let out a eerie howl. The children around him could feel it, the bloodlust in the air. Cold, chilling steps were taken in the direction of the child. He may have been brave a moment ago, but he could surely feel the calamity Amarok brought with each step. Occult energies flowed to his eyes, turning them a great red.

They had purpose. To kill. To burn anything. To watch blood spill. To wreak havoc. They were the manifestation of chaos. They were the eyes that seel ultimate destruction.

They were the eyes of a demon.

And before Yuri knew it, he was on the ground. And the demonic wolf was looming over him. Without a moment wasted, blood fangs were bared, and he bit into Yuri's arm. Letting his occult magic flow inside, before separating himself and tearing a good chunk of flesh with him.

"...Disgusting... Human blood was never all that appetizing... But you, I've hurt someone you cared about... It was fun. Next time, I'll kill them before your eyes. I'll kill everyone you've all ever cared about."

A last statement to Pyralis and Yuri. To enrage them.
(Amarok)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[17:11] No matter how hard Yuri fought against this beast he'd find himself unable to surpass it, to overcome what was before his eyes. Each swing was sent wide, each attempt at blasting the Demon with energy found itself falling flat. There was no way out of this one, really.

Yet he didn't give up. He pushed on, he pressed with all of his might, all of his strength, even if it wasn't enough. It never had been enough. Small. Fragile. A coward who scares too easily. One who couldn't even look his opponent in the eyes even in battle.

He was knocked off his feet by mere howls, forced backwards by the steps Amarok brought forth and unable to truly defend himself. His whole body was trembling, even as he made those last attempt, desperate swings.

One of the swings went too wide and the beast pounced. Blood and flesh were torn apart as occult forces seeped right into his body, forcing its way through the shroud of energy that surrounded Yuri and forcing a scream out of his lips.

"Argh- AAAAHHHH!"

The remnants of energy did more than merely break and flow into his body, however, they pushed through his very circuits, they forced a burst - an overload of mana to explode outwards as something ticked from the violent assault.

That vile mana. That horrible nature. That ancestry that was so... purely infernal. It shook awake the source of Yuri's strength. The threaths sent his way were only driving that desire to protect, to overcome, to call upon more and more strength further.

.. Alas, Yuri's body was unable to give more than that. He knew a losing battle when he saw one and the sheer shock of the bite had him cowering. Running for his life.
