Heroes of Silvatica City

[Alright...] Ugh, those gems were as powerful as they were said to be then. Knight had to admit that she was a little tired after pushing back a whole planet and generating a wormhole, but the feeling was exhilarating. It turned her sorrow at Elli's loss into determined rage. She opted for theatrics as she gently blew towards the rubble, turning it into harmless dust. Harbinger was still steaming towards her, but she let him come, outstretching her arms that looked like the arms of a spiral galaxy, ready to take whatever he had. So they just needed to get the glove back? Caoimhe pressed her forehead against Death's and sighed. "Thank you for tellin' us this," she said. "Will ya help us get our friend 'n the gems?" As he did, the Ice Queen shrieked an unholy shriek, and blood arced from her neck as her head was severed. Her body morphed back into that of Pestilence, who slumped in a disgusting heap at his feet. His delusions cleared, Corlock could see now that the arms weren't blue but lilac; Aditya was stood on the body of Pestilence with its head in her hand. She was covered in its blood and foulness. "Burn it, ya," she whispered hoarsely. That was why it hadn't died when they first killed it, she realised. On her home world, the only way to stop the spread of deadly diseases was to burn the bodies and everything they touched.

Knight grunted and took the energy wave as it hit her. It appeared to make her body scatter into a huge cloud of glittering dust that kept expanding outwards, seemingly inanimate. But then it started to take shape again. Huge shape. An impossibly huge being that looked like Knight was looming out of space towards Harbinger now. "That's all we need," said Caoimhe, finally releasing Death and jumping back to the ground. He looked beautiful now, coated in flowers and leaves, and life. Once Pestilence's corpse was burning, smelling as foul as expected, Aditya sighed and sat down on the ground.

Knight did something simple really - she reached out to grab Harbinger with her massive hand. Caoimhe went and joined back up with everyone else, though Corlock and Aditya were still elsewhere. Aditya looked forlornly at the burning heap of a body next to them and whimpered. "Corlya... Ya don't want to live anymore, ya," she confessed. "Ya can't be happy without loves, ya."

Knight's hand was not easy to push back, in fact she had such force behind her that she began to bend Harbinger's hand backwards and dig her longs claws through his armour, into his flesh. "They're that way," Caoimhe said, sensing Corlock's subtle blue energy and Aditya's vibrant lilac soul two streets over. They all headed that way, with the reformed Death in tow. Aditya shook her head. "Via Bea never smack, ya," she said shortly to Corlock. She didn't feel like explaining that Pijbe and Viviix were what she woke up for every day, that without them her life was so incomplete that not even her family on her home world were enough to keep her living. She just wanted to end her own suffering now and be with her departed loves...

Oh he was doubling up? Then so would Knight. She used both of her hands to push against his, but then she stopped pulling and began to pull on Harbinger, hard, and then flung him around and sent him spinning off into the asteroid belt. When it was revealed that they needed the gems to free their loved ones, Aditya looked up into the sky where they could see cosmic beings sparring and sighed. It would be almost impossible... "How we doing it, ya?" she asked quietly to no one in particular. Just like everyone else, she would fight against impossible odds for her beloveds.

Knight loomed up out of the cosmos and reached towards Harbinger again. He wasn't really fighting back, so Knight was going for the basic moves, such as punching him with her huge fists. No one seemed to disagree, so Caoimhe turned to Death and nodded. "No time like the present," she said.

Well, he hadn't dodged this one. Knight easily punched him again and he flew even further away from the Earth, out beyond neptune and towards pluto. They all felt dizzy from the sudden teleportation but recovered as quickly as possible. "Thanks," Caoimhe said to Death. "Ya can go free now. Do what needs to be done for us all, 'n I'll see ya 'gain some day."

Throwing planets now? Knight wouldn't allow that, it messed up her solar system and could cause an impact on Earth. She pushed against Pluto, slowing it down and stopping it before it reached her. Caoimhe let out a weary, wistful sigh and stood looking at where Death had been. This whole experience had been profound for her. She snapped out of it as her friends ran past towards where Death had said Tenpo was.

Knight could definitely go bigger, but this was getting more and more interesting. She may as well humour him. She took hold of both of his wrists and kicked him hard in the gut. Harbinger's room was enormous, it was more like a wild open field than a room. They could all vaguely see a big glass box.

Knight only reacted a little to being headbutted. She still had hold of his arms, so she twisted and then flung him hard up into the cosmos, out of the solar system. It was obvious she wanted to get as far away from Earth as possible and so far it had worked. They all approached, keeping an eye out for more traps as they got close to the glass box. Tenpo was inside and she was strapped down, with something over her mouth. It looked like she had passed out.

"You're still not going all out," Knight replied to Harbinger, looming up to him again and summoning dark matter into her fists. "Give me all you got and then maybe I'll remember this fight after I'm done." It didn't look like Tenpo could hear them, because she didn't react whatsoever.

Well, that was pretty impressive, Knight had to admit. "You finally put up a good fight," she said, before slamming into him with a wall of dark matter. It was heavy beyond description and who knows how far he flew from the impact. "Be careful," Caoimhe cautioned, but they didn't stop him because they had no other options.
