Chapter 37 - Final Fantasy Tactics War Of the Lions Part 10 ◘

The Order members and Church people there actively fought on the side of the demon. The sucky part it was the demon from the portal the previous day or week. Azul forgot to clarify the actual time that passed. The demon was wounded but could move as normal it seemed.

A Knight of Olivia was held up in the air. She looked beaten and close to near death. The others already running back. They made it close enough for Azul to heal them.

"Group Heal." The magic restored the women easily. "Guard the doors of the church. Let none get in or out." Azul said walking forward. He felt the biotic strands come off them. "I will do what I can to save.. your sister. You all are siblings?!" They gave him a nod.

System: Paragon Save Tiffany Rewards: Olivia's gratitude, Unique class unlock, ????, ????

Failure: Lost of faith of the World inhabitants.

"Of all the tsk." Azul scoffed moving closer. "Hey, there Bastardo's let the girl go and fight me yourselves." He scanned the area and thought about something to help turn the tide. 'Dyshana go to the battlements and keep a lookout.'

'Very well.' She left him faster than anybody would be able to catch.

"Discard the Spear and sure." Apostle Commander spoke. " Do that and fine."

Azul turned and threw the spear into the church wall. He felt the increase in demonic energy in the area. The Apostle Commander let her go. By dropping her from sky.

"Mrrrp," The Knight tried to scream. But her mouth was to damaged to do so.

'Biotic Charge.' Azul activated it and caught her before she hit the ground.

"Brother!" Lettie yelled. A magical barrier had gone up. Separating them all from each other. THe only ones inside were Azul and Tiffany on their side. Everyone else was the Order under the influence and the Apostles.

"Go and defeat the others around the perimeter!" Azul turned to her. "Lettie, prove to me you can follow my orders. Do not be like the others." His tone came out wrapped with his power. His Pather power telling her exactly what he needed.

She nodded and did just that. Turning to the Knights she gave them a hard stare. "Guard the hell out of those doors! Gaffgarion you take those on the left I will take the ones on the right. We will meet in the middle." Lettie shot off like a bullet. "Or I meet on your side if your a slowpoke!"

"This is crazy. You bastards go too far!" Gaffagrion yelled at the Apostle members. "Usuing your own and stripping them of there will." He marched off while casting magic enhancing himself. "I will bathe the land in your blood." His opponents were all he saw right now.

A magic bolt went out flying towards Tiffany but was interrupted by magic.

"Sigh, what a problem," Azul said. "Hmm, Misty Fist." The water droplets swirled around his body. Fast enough to leave cuts. "Tiffany dont be useless. Pick off who you can but dont put yourself in danger."

"Right!" Tiffany said drawing her second sword. The other was broken to pieces and discarded. "I will do my best." Azul gave her a nod.

"Tap." Azul foot hit off against the stone mixed with the dirt. He had straight for the Apostle Commander.

"So, this what you idiots will do," Lettie said. "Your sisters are inside and yet hear you are with the people who mean to kill them. For shame." Lettie stopped as an Order Squire took a swing at her. She dodged it with a little effort. Seeing her brother not go all out, she did the same. "Pummel Fist!"

"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang," her fist rang out in quick succession. The Squire didnt have a chance as his body was battered in every direction. He dropped to the ground in a slump. The oddest thing happened. Above his head, A black window appeared with a five in it for the countdown.

"Beat it punks!" Liette dived deeper into the Order. She went after the Archers. The squire was just in the way.

Ramza and Delita snapped out of it from her yell that was laced in magic. They drew there swords and started to attack the order members near them.

"Filthy cur! To hell with you!" Ramza and Delita said at the same time. They both went into a frenzy. They slashed against the Order troops.

A member of the Order cut into Delita striking him in the side. Ramza ran up cutting the assailant down trying to assist Delita. "Schlk," the strike cut true. The squire went down.

"Delita you are critically wounded. Control yourself, my friend." Ramza says to Delita with care. He outstretches his hand to assist him. "Smack," Ramza hand was knocked away by Delita's sword.

Delita screamed at Ramza. "Speak not to me! When these fool fall, you, the Order all of them are next. My vengeance will not die till you all are dead!" He felt a wave of intense anger for him. "Your brother sent us here! Sent us with them!"

"Delita... I.." Ramza said somberly. "I will not let them die! Trust me." He stepped in the way of a squire swinging his axe.

"Sching," the axe cut right through his armor. "Kuff," Ramza spat up blood as he almost dropped. "Hah!" Using the ability Rush, he tackled the squire knocking him away.

"You!" Delita said getting up. He shook his head as he fought the magical influence. He was also fighting the World's influence as well. "Damn you! Dont you dare die! "Chant!"

The magic helped restore Ramza who then gave Delita a potion. Now recovered a little more, the two teamed up to fight.

"Alma stop!" Argath yelled. "You cant go down there!" He grabbed her arm to pull her back. "Stop it at once. I won't let you go down there."

"Let me go!" Alma yelled. "My brother is down there. I have to do something!"

"Smack," a hit went across her face not light at all. Olivia had smacked her hard.

"Stay put." She said with steel in her voice. "You cant do anything but get in there way." Olvia shook her head sadly. She moved her hand to Alma. "They will survive this. When it is over., go to your brother. But till then you are not going down there and endangering them all."

"I.. I understand," Alma said looking down. 'I cant do anything. I am useless.'

"When they come back," Argath said kneeling beside her. "They will need healing. You have been practicing right?" Alma gave him a nod. "Then when it is over you will help then. Doing your part."

"Right, thank you." Alma gave him a smile. She stood up and went to stand on the battlements with the others.

'She could move again. A bit of hope in that man as well. Don't tell me its the power of love? If so, a lot of people will be screwed.' Dyshana thought. She shook her head in wonder and smiled. 'This world is full of chaos. But it is nothing that Azul hasn't subjected himself to. He is still the most tasteful soul I have come across. I want more. But I have to get stronger and increase this body of mine more. This quest Lluvia gave me should help.'

Auxiliary: Quest upscale- keep Azul on his path as best you can. Report on dissenters and traitors.

"Raaawwrr! You are mine Azul!! Your blood will spill for your previous slight." The Apostle Commander's body expands.

He grew in height to about 10 feet or so. His skin stretching as hardened muscles can be seen underneath forming. In a blink of an eye the skin return in a grayish color. On top of the head, a horn grew in a dark black color. The cheekbones spread open revealing another pair of eyes that darted around taking in the sights of everything. They stopped on Tiffany fighting against an Apostle-monk.

"Raggh!" The demon yelled as it charged towards her. She wouldn't be able to get away in time.

"Sigh," Azul teleported over in the way. "Rising Dragon!" He had slid right under the demon in a kneel. Coming up in an uppercut, he caught it in the neck.

"Woosh," A water Dragon rose up from his fist sending the demon into the air. Turning on the balls of his feet, he pointed at the nearest apostle.

"Concussive Shot!" The magic missile fired off hitting the apostle and sending him flying to the side. Stretching his will out he found he was right. With the demon up in the air, the barrier weakened. He called the spear over. "Tiffany use this." He tossed it to her.

"Thank you!" Grabbing it one hand she found her self force to hold it with both. A bit power flowed into her explaining how to wield it. "So warm." She said eyes starting to glaze a little. Getting her wits back she wen to attack another apostle. "Hiya!"

"Ha!" The Dragoon-apostle parried as best he could. "He foot slid back from the weight of the spear. "So heavy!" CHarging forward he went for a thrust. "Take this!"

"Swoosh," the thrust of the spear caught air. As Tiffany had jumped to the side.

"Cyclone!" Tiffany yelled as she spun in an arc. The Halberd turned with the speed and hit the enemy in the side of the ribs.

"Cracck," his bones audibly broke.

"Ha.. ha.. ha," Tiffany took a knee out of breath. She looked for any enemies that approached. There werent any. She spotted the reason why. Azul had jumped into a bunch of them smashing everything in his path. "So wild, so crazy." She said despite herself. "He has so many cuts and bruises. Can he survive all of this?" She then tried to get up but felt the pain of her body forcing to kneel again.

"Whistle," the water dragon had dissipate and the demon was coming back down at fast speed. It looks to have turned into a shooting star heading straight for Azul.

"Arrroo!" The demon roared catching everyone's attention. "You are mine!"

"Wham!" Azul punched an Apostle-Knight in the center of the chest. He dropped as he spat blood out all over. Turning around and looking up he saw the demon.

"Well, damn thats fast." He said as he put his hand above his eyes as if he was scouting. "Wish I had a bat." Rolling his shoulders he popped a potion to restore a little of his health back. "Bahamut."

Dragon: I have been waiting for you to call my name! Acknowledge us! Say the words.

Devil: Oh this will be fun!

"I am thou... Thou art I... From the sea of my mind and heart, I come. We are the judgment for this world. And I am your sword-bearing messenger! Come forth!" Azul yelled out.

All the excess magic and that in the area was pulled in. The barrier shattered from the intensity as it warbled for a second. The light caught Gaffgarion, Lettie, and Tiffany. There health and stamina was restored. The light dissapeared right after back into Azul.

"Arrrooooo!" Azul howled sending the demon of course into the trees.

A black Dragon stood about 10 feet in height. The hands were still as flexible as a human. Strong claws that tear through Titanium with a casual swipe. His tail itself moved about happily in relief. It would have smacked into the ground if he was not conscious of those in the area. Upper torso covered in scales all the way to his waist. On his back long but powerful wings that he pulled back inside himself. Behind his head, three orbs floated. The power of his True runes.

Unlock the regular Bahamut's wings his were made of flesh. They were not metallic. Thoughts of Magic the Gathering started to surface before he sent it to the back of his mind. With a thought he had Lluvia use a mental patch to make sure nothing bad would happen.

System: Mental Patch used... The user mind shows no errors.

Lluvia: The Aeon Bahamut is no more. He has been consumed by your inner dragon completely. It will now be used as the form for your Persona as well as your main Guardian Force. This is a high-level arcana that has been given to you. The Trickster + Judgement Tarot cards represent you now. Congratulations on going through a radical change, of self.

Azul had to reign some of it back do to his level. He wasn't even fully formed. Standing on twos with his arms folded he looked into the treeline. It came charging out as fast as it could. With a thought, the True Water Rune flew to Tiffany and formed a Biotic Shield around her. it picked her up and floated her around the battlefield. But not to far from Azul.

"Ahh, I am afraid of heights," Tiffany screamed. She smacked down on the barrier and was surprised when it went closer to the ground. "Ah! Slowly Slowly!" It slowed its descent and hovered about three feet above.

"Overlord's Fury!" Azul groaned out. The two other floating runes turned into large clawed hands and moved in front of him.

"What are you?!" The demon yelled.

"We will represent cleansing, choice, and ultimately, judgment," Azul said to everyone there.

"You should be on our side. The demon tried to offer an opportunity. Seeing his look of disdain, it felt pity. "Die!" A blast of electricity flew out and hit Azul in the chest. The demon had used Thundara.

Health -32

Azul looked to the demon and grinned. His feet dug into the ground next. Next, he started to focus on a spell. Sending the Rune fists out, he picked up a tree in each hand and smacked the demon in the face.

"Wham, wham," the trees splintered on each blow. The demon rocked to the left and then to the right. "Thump," the demon's knee hit the ground. Showing its amazing strength it stood up easily. But it's hands picked up a boulder the size of a small house.

"Raa!" The demon tried to bash the trees away. "Swish, swish," the boulder caused the air to move as he swung. Azul had the run fist dodge both swings by pulling way back. "Heh, gotcha." The demon smirked as it hurled the boulder at him.

"Whistle," the boulder whistled through the air as it came forward.

"Thud."

"Thud."

"Thud."

"Thud." The demon was already charging toward's Azul right behind the boulder.

System" Strength Check 31 Pass Endurance Check 24 Neutral.

Health -21

"Boom," the boulder exploded. Azul's tail had come up and smacked the boulder backward. It made contact with the Demon's horn. "Chink," the horn broke off and fell to the ground.

"Aro," the demon howled in pain. As it left itself open, Azul brought his Rune fists back.

"Schlk, schlk," the trees were rammed into the demon's back. It didnt pierce the tough hide but pushed it forward and off balance. "Thump," the demon his the dirt landing face first. Before it could get up, Azul stepped on its head.

"Uh, uh, uh," Azul said as the Rune fists and his tail did the motion of a shaking finger. "You have been such a bad little demon. I am also going through some things. A bunch of crap actually. Life was supposed to be easier. Turns out its not. So... that being said.." Azul wrapped his tail around the demon's neck. Moving forward, he stepped onto its shoulders. His toed claws tapping against its hard skin. Finding it stronger than he thought, he moved and stepped down on to its lower back.

System: Strength Check 30 Pass

"Schlick, schlik," his clawed feet went right through it's body. Clutching he held it and cut deeper in.

"Arggh!" The demon groaned.

"My spell is done. Time for us to go on a trip." Azul said coldly. The Rune Fist turned into wings as he used them to flap up. "Up, up and away." He carried the demon into the air. It tried to struggle free but he didnt mind it to much. The more it moved, the deeper his feet dug in. He flew over the church to the other side of it.

"You are making a mistake. Join us. Serve Mother." The demon tried to beguile Azul.

System: Willpower Check 40 Pass

"Bye-bye now," Azul said not upset in the least.

"Woosh, woosh, woosh," Azul spun in the air and launched the demon away. His mouth opened as he drew in air. With the last flap of his wings to propel himself up and forward once more, he redirected all his magic to his mouth.

"Concussive Shot Max output!" Azul fired a concussive shot filled with magic. Inside the center was the spell Giga Flare.

System: Constitution Check 27 Neutral

"Thoom," Azul's neck pushed back from the recoil. A giant beam of hot magic warped space as it went out lighting up the entire sky for miles. The demon looked up just as the blast hit.

"Mother Ajora.. I have failed youuu!" His body burned away in the blast. The magic continued to scorch the earth creating a pit the went deep into the ground.

With the spell finished Azul started to fall to the ground. His True Water Rune had shot off from behind to grab him.

"Ahhh!! To fast!" Tiffany screamed as she was pushed to the back of the sphere. "Eep." She fell forward when it stopped abruptly. "You are not very nice." She said sitting up.

"Can I have my halberd back?" Azul asked looking at her. She handed it over reluctantly. "Thanks. Let us go back now." With that said the sphere shot back off returning to the battlefield in less than a minute.

"Pop," the Biotic Shield dispersed helping to restore some of Azul's health. Tiffany was dropped off by the others. "Tap," Azul already kicked off the ground running back into the battle.

Health + 32

-Over with Lettie-

'Man, it kind of sucks realizing I am not good at sparing people. This was way to hard.' She looked at the downed order members sighing. 'At least they are still alive I guess. She shot off towards Gaffgarion's side.

Lettie pulled more magic into herself. She could feel a tearing sensation journey down her cheeks from her eyes. She pulled in the power until she could not contain it anymore. Then letting it pour outward in one pulse of magic. The magic swept out pushing the snow in all directions.

"Whew. I can move easy again." Lettie said stretching her neck and legs around. "What the hell... I could feel a pleasant sensation coming from my core. It feels so good." Turning she watched as her brother shot past her. 'Ohh he's gotten stronger somehow.' Balling her fists she chased after him.

AzuI looked over to Gaffgarion. "This is not what I thought it was gonna be."

"Yes, but this is a racial war or something else or another. I dont care. I just wish to protect my sons. And give them a world where they grow old and hopefully find someone to love." Gaffgarion said as he cut an Apostle member in two. "Sparing so many already has made this difficult."

"Yeah, get tired of it myself," Azul said as he kicked an Apostle-monk in the face. He then connected with Lettie as they fought. 'Back with the crew. There is violence there but.. the future here is terrible again.' Dodging an arrow to late he took it in the chest.

"Thunk!" The bolt stood there.

Health -4

"Brother it will be easier if we just kill them all," Lettie grumbled. She linked back with Azul. 'Also, the path you have laid out will take us somewhere else. Lot's of war.... it is still better than a life of running. Let's take care of them and get out of here.' She jumped forward and caught up with an Order member who was busy healing someone. "Hi, krack, krack." She cracked her knuckles as she picked up the priest and slammed them.

"Thump," the body of the Priest bounced and fainted.

"Bwoom," a gate opened. It was a User. One he recognized. Something was different as the User eyes were glazed over and something else was in control.

Observe: Apostle User Lvl 5

Specialty: N/A

Status: Controlled

"I will get the others," Gaffgarion said moving away.

"Lettie all yours." Azul looked at the User. "Mental Cleansing." The magic went over the User and freed him only for a second before the World's power took back over. 'Lluvia, what is going on here?'

Lluvia: The difficulty was increased. That User already has left that body long ago. In fact he is listed as dead. This should not be happening. I will send the report to the Administration.

Galtea: Let me do it instead. Better for you to focus on your current tasks.

"Thank you, brother. Let's do it to it." Lettie said as she charged the demon. "Brother help Gaffgarion. I can do this."

"Alright." Azul moved away. 'Jaina fall back and tend to your wounds. Once you are able to, rejoin the battle. I know you have been fighting most of the enemies in the church with Dyshana.'

'Oh, alright.' Jaina responded back before breaking the telepathic link.

"Ah, Lunastrider.. such.. a pleasure to meet you again. I will enjoy feasting on your soul. The same as I did your parents." The demon said sinerstly. "To think you beat my other half. No matter as this body is stronger in a way."

His tongue stretched in a slithering motion. At first glance, one would think it was harmless. But the drops coming from its mouth were toxic on a closer look.

Lettie felt a quick rage almost overtake her. The demon had overlooked her. Focusing she realized it would be foolish to act recklessly. 'This would get me killed if I didn't focus.' Picking up a sword and shield quickly, she blocked the tongue that whipped around. And quickly swung her sword downward to cut the appendage.

The tongue slipped away and speeds up and slapped against her raised shield.

"Thump," the wet tongue echoed out against the shield. She took a slight step back from the impact. Bending a little at the waist and knee Lettie gathered some more magic. Twisting back from the downward strike she swung out and up like a whip. With her full force cutting the tongue off. Puss flew into the air in an arc. Parts landed on the shield. And some landed on a few apostles.

Azul pushed Gaffgarion out of the way. "Tsh," the bac of his elbow burning in the process. When it landed on the skin of the others, one could see it soak into the flesh. A greenish-yellow hue flashed into there eyes.

Health -12

"Raaggh! You filthy creature you will pay dearly!" The demon screamed as he retracted his tongue back inside.

Lettie was quite happy it didn't instantly regenerate. If so this would be a war of attrition. The demon came charging downward with its hands. "I will crush you wench of Lunastrider!"

Lettie placed the shield up to take the strength of the blow. Her legs were ready to spring back. It created a slight spring system around her legs with magic to help cushion and get ready to bounce out. She also had her right hand ready to strike when she moved back.

The hands came crashing down. Almost causing the shield to break and fly away.

"Ahh shit," Lettie said as she felt the strain on her legs. "Psych! Pblt!" She taunted the demon and pushed it back and delivered a quick cut to its wrist. It was a shallow stab.

"Tck," a little blood dribbled out but was quickly sealed back shut.

"You are a weak girl. Before your ancestors were even born, me and my kin ripped through the countryside. We killed as we please." The demon said as it raised its hand again. "Killing you will be the best thing ever. And after you, I will kill all the others here. The woman with the fireballs looks like she will give delicious screams. I can't wait." His fist came down gathering energy with it.

'He is using despair as an actual weapon.' Azul thought to Lettie. She gave him a smile and winked. 'Right she already knows what it is capable of.'

"Boom!" The blow struck the ground with enough force to send dirt flying with the shockwave. Lettie took the chance to strike. "Boom!" A spell went off and pushed the demon into the opening.

"Weak little girl." Lettie came out smiling. "First of all, the only thing little is this chest of mine." She tapped her sternum. "And that is just genetics for now. I am way older than you weakling. I have been toying with you the entire time. For good reason." She turned back and put her hand in the air.

"Bwoom," all the out cold members of the Order disappeared into the ground. Only ones left were a few Apostles with the regular red box and white count down marker.

"Good job sis. Keep them locked up no matter what." Lettie said. "If you start treating any of them I am gonna break your arms and legs again."

"Wuw, but it should be ok now," Ciela said frowning. She looked at her sister hard before agreeing. "Gulp, ok ok." She switched the Cura spell to wait and let it prep more. "Oh, always so cautious hmph."

"Your sister does not take chances with the enemy I take it?" Agrias asked from nearby.

"Yeah.." Ciela drowned out pouting. "No healing for the enemy till after everything is checked. IF they die, they die. She and brother have weird rules."

"Woosh," Dyshana appeared nearby covered in blood. "It will keep you alive soft child."

"Hmph," Ciela didnt comment as she looked back at the battle. Her finger pointed out as she healed Dyshana. "Cure."

"Ah, thank you, soft child." Dyshana walked over petting her like one would a bunny.

"Ahh, thats ohh. That feels nice." Ciela said. She tried to be upset but it didn't work. "You pet like brother does. I like it."

"Your family is weird," Ovelia said covering her mouth. "Hehe, but I like it. You all are so close."

"Really close in some cases," Tietra said coming up. Only Magna from her Honor Guard with her. "But its not to bad."

"Yet you are messing with him. You are going to pay for that in a bad way soon." Dyshana said with a flat tone. She didnt look away from the battlefield. "In your pursuit to do whatever you have been doing, he is breaking in a very bad way. He will turn back to killing at this rate. But what do I know? I never bonded with someone like you have with him."

"Tch, its for his own good," Mileuda said unconvincingly. "He will be fine."

'Idiots.' Magna thought. 'I wonder if I can get him to let me feed more... deeper?'

The demon twisted in a weird way as its neck bent all the way back. Lettie missed her chance to strike with the sword. But she wouldn't give up on the chance for the next blow.

She focused her magic energy on her left hand discarding the shield remnants. The pieces hovered in the air wrapped in magic. As the demon's head reeled back in place, she fired it at the demon's mouth.

"Boom!" The spell exploded. It was wrapped up to fast. Lettie tucked herself togethor in the air, to send herself out the way.

"Ahh, you will pay for that." The demon said. Reaching up it pulled a fragment from its forehead and stared at Lettie. "You.. are holding back. You pity me!"

'Man I should really dive deeper into brothers' new training. The old moves are letting me move around like a squirrel on the battlefield. I could always join the circus if I can't make it as a soldier. I want to get in a bare-knuckle fight with it. But its to weak anyway. Should I stop playing around with it?' Lettie was completely relaxed as she waited on the demon. She was talking with her sister as well. She did not like what she was hearing. 'Dont worry about sis. I will take care of it. Just stay focus on keeping your happiness with that Techlis.' Lettie snapped her fingers.

"Boom, boom," two small explosions happened. The shards pieces exploded.

"Plip," A piece of its fingers fell. Chunks of its mouth dropped down. It turned into puss on the ground.

"You foolish creature! I will devour you!" It slurred its words as it charged at her. Its footing was unsettled in the muddy ground. "Ragghh!" The demon yelled as it prevented itself from tripping.

It skidded across the ground. It barely had enough time to recover as it stopped in front of Lettie. The demon was right in front of as she looked at it. Green bile came out of its mouth. It spits a loogie at her.

"Bleagh!" the mucus launched out. With a burst of magic, she moved and ducked underneath it. "Hup," smacking her hand on the ground she jumped from off the ground moving in an upward slash. With one hand on the sword, she slashed at its chest. The demon's left hand tried to grab her. It missed.

"Swoosh," catching nothing but air it became frustrated. Lettie spent the next few minutes dodging to the left and right leading it away from the church. "Rahh, stand still little nat!" The demon brought its hands down like a hammer.

"Boom," it landed in the dirt and slush. Lettie placed her hands on its hands pinning it down. Lettie leaned back taking a deep breath. "Ah," she placed her hand in front and started to gather her magic for a blast like before. But smaller this time as well as controlled.

With her other hand, she threw her sword at the demon. Lacing it with a little magic energy before sending it off. It moved out the way by tossing her into the air. While in the air Lettie looked at the battlefield she was the last one fighting and saw everything else was finished. But there was more good news. Jaina launched a giant fireball at the demon causing it to stumble. It turned around looking in her direction.

Jaina teleported away. She reappeared next to Tietra and Milleuda and gave Lettie a weird look. On my descent down, Lettie used the magic to strike back again with the sword she coated. A magical bridge connected to the demon, then to her.

"Lunastrider you are mine!" The demon looked up at Lettie. "I will.." was all it managed to say as the sword was stabbed into its back through its skull. "Boom!" The entire sword detonated. Thehead was blown out on its left side. Before the demon could recover Lettie let loose her magic.

The ground started to radiate in light. A magical wall of light adorning the area. As bright as the sun

"You girl, will change nothing we will return. We will have this land. All will serve us!" The demon said as it smirked.

"No, you won't," Lettie said shaking her head. "A family original for you. Judgment of the Fallen." Sunlight radiated off her and burned the entire area away.

"Arghh!" The demon screamed in pain as it started to turn into a human form. In an instant, it was burned away leaving nothing behind but a wisp of a soul.

Lluvia: Azul tell her to devour it!

'Um alright.' Azul was a little surprised but he listened. "Mental Cleasning!" He yelled taking hold of the spell and warping the area. 'Lettie take in the soul before the light vanishes completely.'

'Ok.' Lettie obeyed with no hesitation. She sucked the soul in as the light finally diminished. "Brother you better catch me!" She was falling fast with the magic no longer sustaining. "She looked down to see Azul already standing there. He walked into the light without any problem.

"Sup?" Azul said grinning.

"Oof, thank you. Glad you already knew?" Lettie looked at him expectantly.

"Huh, well yeah. What the hell you think I was doing?" Azul looked at her grinning. "I was watching the fight. You did great."

"Just great?" Lettie pouted.

"You did amazing," Azul said as he finished warping the magic to restore the ground. "Hold on a second." He finished extending his control and felt the connection. The area had converted into a part of his Nether World. A small portion but strong.

"Well that was something else, to say the least, "Gaffgarion said as collapsed on his butt. He was tired as hell.

"It isn't over yet," Jaina stated floating over.

"That's right. What will you do with the surviving order members?" Dyshana said appearing beside them. "lettie are you going to get off of him?"

"Nope." Lettie aid gripping him tighter. "Why you want to switch with me." She eyed Dyshana who looked away not taking the bait.

Ramza and Delita were crossing swords. Ramza was mostly defending while Delita lashed out angrily.

"You have to confront your brother! He is behind this!" Delita yelled. Tietra was off to the side watching.

"Its not that simple. We were controlled and brought here. He could be as well." Ramza countered responding with he had the chance. Alma was standing to the side and waiting.

LLuvia: Lettie will head to inside to a portion of your Nether World to recover. Say nothing about what happened. Dont say it to anyone. I have placed a guard on both of you to hide this information away. You forget about this in two seconds till its safe.

Azul shook his head as Lettie disappeared into him. "Well shit. That is good timing." Azul looked around trying to figure out what was gonna happen next. He watched the two fighting until Weigarf came up. "How did everything go inside?"

"It went great. A few wounded. Some critical but the healers did good work. The magic you gave us when flying over helped a lot." Weigarf stopped and watched the two fight. "It is so strange."

"What is?" Mileuda asked

"Brothers and there reasons for doing things," Weigarf said looking at his sister sadly. "You all are connected in a weird way."

"Ah, I get what he is saying," Azul said staring at the clashing. "Alma and Ramza. Weigarf and Mileuda. Delita and Tietra. Me, Ciela and Lettie. Stuff is bananas."

"To think you didnt plan on getting with either Mileuda or Tietra before. How weird." Jaina said.

"Huh, what do you mean?" Weigarf asked.

"Nothing your sister cant explain to you." Azul raised his hands. "I am sick of this. I rather they kill one another but ah well. Mental Cleansing!" The two were blasted by the magic and stopped. "Take the idiots away and talk to them. If they create a problem with out figuring things out.." Azul turned to walk back to the church. "..Kill them both."

"It will be done at once," Gaffgarion said.

"Not you. Go to your sons. Spend time with them." Azul stopped and looked at Dyshana and Magna. "Magna take Delita. Dyshana take Ramza." The two nodded and started to move.

"I think.." Teitra started to say.

"I dont give a fuck what you think right now. They have their orders." Azul said codly still moving to the church. He felt Jaina getting ready to say something. "You be quiet as well." He sent a rush of mana and the emotions he picked up from Lettie to her.

"Oi Lunastrider to much!" Jaina said flustered. Her cheeks started to get red. She was both angry and worried about what Lettie had felt. "Thats.. ah to much mana." Jaina looked mana drunk.

"Woah that is going a little too far," Mileuda said out loud. "She was just trying to help against.."

"Thunk," the church door closed behind him, Tiffany, and Gaffgarion.

"Told you this would happen," Dyshana said. She had Ramza wrapped in magic as well as his squad members with her.

"Nothing to for now," Magna said pulling Delita and a few Apostle members that survived. The ones that weren't sent away by Lettie earlier.

"It's fine his magic is way to raw! That and its so volatile. I am going to go meditate goodbye." Jaina left. She went to speak with Zelda.

Lluvia: Switching you to Mass Effect. The meeting will start after the Feros incident. We were able to get it pushed back.

'Thanks.' Azul felt the shift as his moved to his Mass Effect body. Only thing remaining was his The him for Final Fantasy Tactics and the Halberd from the Emperor of man kind. 'Huh, thats weird. I have full control as if I did move. But I can control myself here and there at the same time?'

Trickster: You can now. Dont mention it to anyone. I will explain in the future while I have the chance. For now act normal.
