!!!!
This time Lana swore loudly as she dove to avoid the awesome attack. How degrading, she'd never actually known anyone that could make her hug the ground like a little lost puppy.
Embarrassing, really.
"GEEZ, KID. Are you MENTAL or what?!" she shrieked at him, getting all but too furious with the situation. She didn't understand the idea behind his sword glowing, and she definitely didn't want to take the time to find out.
'Effing Zelos, I bet he knew all along this is exactly what the boy would do--wouldn't surprise me if he just wanted to see me struggle like this.
One of us is dying right here, right now; him, or me.'
Lana gripped the hilt of the sword tightly and took a run, leaping at Andy and bringing her blade down, aiming for the head.

Andy lifted his blade to block her head strike, when her blade made contact with his it sent sparks of energy flying. Andy pushed her back, the pain that she gave him when she hit his back add irritation to the rage.
"You're not walking out here intact!" Andy roared, the sword reached the peak of it's energy as his he found his voice to yell. "RENZOKUKEN!"
His body twitched and then he darted forward and swung at her with a beserker's fury, when he was done he leaped back as a strange energy crackled around him. "Rough Divide!"
He rushed forward and dragged his blade on the ground, when he approached Lana he cleaved upward, a rush of energy erupted below her as it did.

Lana thought everything was going alright until she saw the sparks. And in that half second before he pushed her away, the only thing that came to her mind was,
'Damn...'
She couldn't recall anything he was yelling at her, only that suddenly she saw a psychotic blur fly full throttle at her and for the first time since she could remember, she wasn't able to avoid it or defend herself. She tried to step backwards and move with him, tried to bring her sword up, but in what it seemed like half a blink, she heard a loud CLANG...
And her hand was empty.
She saw him once more, saw the blade...she tensed her muscles, glared, and actually heard her last exhaling breath before her body was enveloped in agonizing pain. She actually screamed, and oh boy did she ever scream, and as Lana hit the ground, there was no movement from her that promised she was going to get up and fight anymore.

Jasmine's eyes grew wide and she, for the first time, was almost scared of what Andy was capable of doing.
Then again, she wasn't quite used to seeing such fantastic events like this. Wasn't used to seeing people die, either. Was she dead?
"Andy...y-you didn't..." she had started, but quickly replaced it with, "do you need anything?"
She'd worry about Andy first, just as she should.

"She's alive," Andy stated, his blade shaking form his trembling hands. "But she won't get up for awhile."
Andy was awed, and afraid, of this new power of his...what was it? He felt the energy surge inside him, but he couldn't call upon it till now. His heart felt...weird, like something was pounding with it simultaneously. His chest burned with power and rage...what was this?

Lana... I knew you would fail. Zelos thought, disappearing in a flurry of petals and reappearing in front of the group. He did not say anything to them, his presence was already enough.

"What?!" Andy yelped, reassuming a battle stance. "Who are you?!"

Zelos did nothing but smirk at Andy, after a short silence he spoke, "I am Zelos, one of the Sumata 13."
He placed his hand on the hilt of his katana, "Your order for death is carried out, Andy Jammer, you are an enemy of the Sumata 13 and you will join me in the land of death."

Andy narrowed his eyes at Zelos and tightened the grip on his weapon, "I don't think so punk! So, you're one of the big bad Sumata 13, time to see how tough you guys are!"
He ran forward at Zelos, pulling his blade back and swinging it at him.

Zelos observed Andy running toward him with an unnatural calmness, then he vanished briefly and reappeared behind Andy. The only difference in his pose was his hand was on the hilt of the blade, and he was putting it back into the sheath.
"Farewell Andy Jammer."

"What are you talking about?" Andy grinned, "I-,"
Just then three enormous gashes appeared on his chest and back. He gasped in pain and found himself unable to move.
How...how...I...I can't...I can't lift my sword... I can't...
Andy dropped his weapon, fell on his kness and then on his stomach. Unmoving.

Jasmine was almost unmoved by Zelos' appearance at first. She had only just had a brief spell of relief upon hearing that Andy really hadn't killed Lana (though why she was worried about someone who was trying to kill them she wasn't sure) and somehow it had left her unphased for Zelos to appear.
She watched Zelos disappear, reappear, and Andy did not move.
"...Andy?" she called, but he didn't answer her.
He fell to the ground and she swore her heart stopped moving. Her eyes went wide and she clutched at the bag at her side tightly, and without more thinking behind it she ran out towards him, throwing a barrier spell over him in case he was actually able to get up before she got to him.
"Andy?! ANDY!!!" she shrieked, running as fast as she could to him. Jasmine took the bag from over her shoulder and threw it beside her as she hit the ground with her knees, sliding close to his body.
"Not like this! You said wouldn't go like this. You hear me?!? YOU'RE NOT DYING ON ME!!!"
And the sage went to work, her hands moving in a frenzy, but with such precision that it was more than clear that she knew what she was doing. She dumped the contents of her bag out, grabbed a knife and tore at the shirt he wore, and then reached for all sorts of other jars filled with herb-like deals and powdery glitters. She felt around the wounds to find how big and how deep they were--blood didn't bother her, but him losing the vast amounts of it did--she grabbed different containers from her side and sprinkled all sorts of odd things over him, things that should help replenish blood cells.
The moment she was done she didn't take another second to waste. She slapped a set of glowing hands down firmly on Andy's chest and a bright light spread over him, working to quickly stitch up the gashes on his skin.
Once it was finished she leaned over and rested her head against his chest. With bated breath she prayed she wasn't too late, and that she could hear his heart coming back to him. Her hands, bloodied, shook violently and she tried tapping them along his left side, somehow hoping that the heart would jump in the same rhythm.

Zelos saw her healing him and stared at her for a second, before drawing his katana and walking up to her, pressing it against the back of her neck.
"I'm afraid I cannot have you do that," he said coldly, "The only person who needs to be on the plane of living is the Princess of Ghiacco. You two, are worth nothing."

"Jas..." Andy coughed, he was barely clinging to consciousness even as she was healing him. When he saw Zelos behind her he growled, "Get...get away from her..."
His body began to flare with energy, the lion tattoo on his shoulder looked menacing and one would almost swear it's eyes were moving.
"I said...get... away!" He yelled (not as loudly as he would have liked) as a burst of energy erupted at him to Zelos. He collapsed afterward.

"W-what?!" Zelos gasped before he was blasted back by the attack, his feet skid against the ground and he stopped. "This power..."
He looked at the unconscious boy and his eyes landed on the tattoo on his shoulder, he blinked before something odd happened: he grinned.
"At last... I finally found it...I finally found you, Griever!"
