((Should any hero join, this will take place before your designated Sumata fight)) Andy fell from Trucido's palm strike, sailing to the ground and crashing to the ground. Making a crater in the rocky floor. Andy struggled to stand in the hole, once he got his balance he ended up losing it again and falling to his hands and knees. As he attempted to catch his breath he saw white fragments of something fall to the ground in front of him, his hand reached to his face as he felt his mask falling apart. His eyes widened as the final piece of the mask detached itself from his face and slowly fell the the floor. The ping sound it made was almost alarming to Andy, for he knew what happened. He lost. Deal's up. " I win." a familiar taunting voice spoke in his head. Soon darkness poured from Andy's eyes, nose and mouth, shooting out into the air. It hovered over Andy, like a frightening black smog from a factory. There was a sound of lightning coming from inside the smog as the cloud of darkness began to bind and form. The darkness stopped coming from Andy's eyes and fell face down to the ground. Despite all that had just happened, Andy was still alive and he was still himself. Even though he wasn't supposed to be. What happened...I'm still here? he thought to himself, as he slowly got up he noticed his speed form fading and his sword returning to normal. The black smog above him had now formed a person, it stayed that way before the black smoke began to take in color and humanistic shapes. In it's place now hovered someone wearing a black Duster with an all black outfit with a single red stripe traveling up the outfit. In his right hand was a long sword, all black and the ends were jagged like a Griffon's wings. A red decorative center in the middle. His face was all white, not pale, but literally white. His eyes were black and yellow, his sneer was visible even as the black smog wasn't gone completely. Because with eyes like those, a sneer wasn't far off.  Andy stared in amazement as this thing, this person with his face hovered in the air above him. His sneering mouth opened up and let out an eerie laugh. His laugh echoed the strange storm that seemed to form from his appearance. " Thank you so much Andy" the person spoke, when he did he remembered the voice: it was the one that always echoed in his head, taunting him. This was his Inner Evil self. Andy opened his mouth to speak when suddenly the figure appeared before him, slamming his fist on Andy's chest and the young teen was flying backwards through the air. His back slamming against some of the mountain wall and he fell back down again. The figure who attacked him let out more of his insane laughter. |

"Andy!" Tempest ran forward, shooting an arrow at the other Andy's back. (I'm guessing this might have no effect since he's pure evil so... ) He reached Andy, kneeling down to see if he was ok.

The arrow flew for the other's back and he staggered a little bit, annoyed by the arrow he reached out and pulled it out. Andy groaning a bit.
"T-Tempest..." he spoke, before his Other began speaking as well.
"Lookie at little Andy...wow, you're an idiot. Really, seriously you are. Did you think this little deal of yours would work?! Did you think you could beat Trucido? You don't have the guts," he taunted. Spinning his sword in his hand. "Kevin tried to warn you...your precious Jasmine begged you...but you wouldn't listen. To wrapped up in trying to be a hero that you never thought to question my helpful 'offer'."
"How...how are you here?!" Andy demanded.
His Other simply continued his eerie sneer, "Well isn't that the, pardon the Earth phrase use, million dollar question? I had a little help you could say...from the little god sleeping inside you." He pointed at Andy.
"Little god...wait, Griever?" Andy blinked, how could a dormant god help this monster. "Why would Griever help you?"
"He would...not willingly, you see I can't afford to waste my time with weaklings such as yourself. I need power. Real power. The power of Griever would work for my plans...but I couldn't reach him, your soul guarded him well." he paused, looking at his blade as if he was fascinated with it. "I needed a way to get close to him...I tried to posses you multiple times, but always your soul would resist. Thoughts of her in your head, your precious Jasmine, gave you strength to resist me. It seems the sage was saving you even from afar...[/b]"
"Jasmine...Jasmine was saving me...?" Andy asked himself quietly.
"The details matter not to me, for today Andy she can't save you. Today you die." he said, walking forward to them.

Tempest looked at the other. "Who is this guy?" He asked Andy. "It looks like he was put in bleach (pardon the pun) for too long." He put away his mother's bow and pulled out the twin blades he was borrowing for a short while.

"Jeilzu'na duvolga ituoa!"
The incantation spat out by the healer sent a semi-powerful blast of fire straight at the escaped inner evil of Andy's. Jasmine paraded in, hands at the ready for a fight.
"I'll show you what I can't do; stay away from Andy!" the usually quiet, sweet girl growled defensively.

((...I have no clue what you mean, I certainly did not plan this from the get go... *whistles innocently.*))
Andy's evil Other was sure he could mow Tempest easy...then the powerful beam came out of nowhere and he barely held it back with his blade. Growling he gave a push and it dissipated in the air. His sneer still on his face.
"One of you, two of you, doesn't matter. I'll mop the floor with you."
"Three of us!" Andy roared, holding his sword in battle position.
His Other stared at him before laughing loudly, "You can't be serious! You can't beat me!"
"Oh really?!" Andy roared, lifting his sword up. "Getusga Tenshou!"
He swung his sword....but nothing happened, no aura, no energy wave...nothing happened. Andy paused for a minute before he looked at his blade. "Wh...what...?"
"What were you trying to do Andy?" his Other spoke with his neverending sneer. "It seems like you were trying to do something...what could it be...could it be...this?
His Other lifted his black and red sword up as it began to glow, "Getsuga Tenshou."
When his Other swung his sword a massive crescent energy wave arced out to Tempest, Jasmine and Andy.

((LOL omg Mike =p))
Jasmine was more than ready to rush into battle with Andy, up until his attack showed itself to be nothing but words from his mouth and a sad, energy-less swing of his sword. She didn't even have time to feel sympathetic or even confused as his evil self attacked them with the very attack he so commonly used before.
'Why did it not work...? Andy, did he take your powers from you?' she thought as she brought her hands up instinctively to bring up a barrier against the attack. It hit one of her powerful barriers, shattering it and sending her staggering backwards a few feet. It had been much stronger than she'd been expecting.
'I'll need to really concentrate on this, that first hit didn't feel too good.

For some reason, Tempest just dropped one of his blades and quickly grabbed his mother's bow and held it in front of him. What the heck am I doing? He didn't have a time to react and the blast hit him, or rather, the bow. Even though the attack didn't hit him, the force from the blast threw him back several feet into a tree.
(By the way, the bow is the weapon Profeta charged... hope you don't mind.)

Andy's Other laughed as Getsuga Tenshou did it's job, Andy watched his friends get tossed around by the attack.
"Tempest! Jasmine!" he yelled, holding his blade forward. Even if Getsuga Tenshou didn't work, he had his forms, the Bankai, to use. "Speed Form!"
...Nothing happened. No change, no aura, no anything. Andy blinked and tried another. "Power Form!"
...Still nothing, so he tried his last one. "Elemental!"
Again, nothing happened. His Other was just laughing cruelly as he watched Andy attempt to summon his powers. "Awww, poow wittle Andy. Didja lose all youw spwecial powews?"
He ceased his baby voice and spoke in usual sly cruelty, "I'm not sure if I should laugh or take pity on you. Trying to use powers that aren't yours..."
"Powers that aren't...what are you talking about!? Getsuga Tenshou is mine! The forms were taught to me by Kevin!" Andy protested.
"And yet," his Other taunted, "Why do I have them, and you don't? Face it. You never had any power. Ever."
With that his Other charged forward, swinging his blade and firing another Getsuga Tenshou. Andy dodged but the attack sent pieces of the mountain crumbling around him, Andy rolled around, barely dodging the falling rocks. His Other laughing relentlessly.
"Oh man alive does it feel good to watch you squirm!" his Other laughed, "It's so hilarious I think I could seriously die from laughter!"

"T-Tempest!" Jasmine's eyes widened as she watched the boy be hurled into the tree.
Her arms waved in front of her, shifting her fingers slightly and deliberately to copy all she'd seen from her grandmother and the family spellbook. Layer the attack. Don't stop for any reason.
Sputtering out a quick incantation, the girl flicked her wrist and sent another burst of fire directly at the Other. While it was being fired the other hand worked in short bursts, shooting off small (not powerful, though quite annoying) beams of light at random.
'Distraction...'
As her first fire burst spell subsided and the beams were being fired, Jasmine began working on one of her biggest spells with her free hand. She needed her focus and needed to complete her signals first.

Roxa dropped in front of Jasmine with his hood raised "I'll buy you some time" he said turning his head slightly towards her before unsheathing both of his weapons and sniffing "Oh Hey There!" he yelled at Andy's other swinging his swords together in an x shape in front of him, sending a large crossbeam of high pressurised air towards Andy's other. He had to make sure the whatever Jasmine was doing she had enough time to do it.

Tempest groaned and shifted. Am... am I still alive? His questioned was answered as he brought up his head to look where he had fallen. A sharp pain lanced through his spine, and he quickly brought his head back down. As he gritted his teeth, he slowly brought his head up, and was watching Andy fail at his powers. Tempest laid his head back down and started charging the energy in his body. It was a trick he had learned in Ignis from a doctor... of course they used fire instead. As he charged the lightning, he felt it start to warm up his body. He directed it to go toward his spine, and seconds later he felt it soothing the aches. However, it was only temparary, he couldn't get rid of the damage, just help ignore it.

Andy's Other stepped back from the fire, his blade swinging to deflect the beams of light. He was about to make some comment when Roxa's attack sent him sprawling backwards. He managed to slide to his feet and turn in the direction of the attack. His sneer resumed.
"Oh...it's you.[/i]" he said, his blade glowing with an outline of some claw. "If I had control of Andy when you were with those Saints you'd be a bloody pulp, but noooo Andy had to be a nice guy and let you all go.[/i]"
He swung his blade and the outline around his blade appeared in the air, striking down for Roxa like an axe of energy.
Andy was still in a daze as the fight continued, what had happened, what went wrong...he was fooled. His Other tricked him to using his power so he could get to Griever. Jasmine...Kevin...why didn't I listen...

Roxa lept to the side away from the attack and kept sending more high pressure waves towards Andys Other, he was deliberatley keeping his distance but with every attack he took a short step to the side, his intention being to draw the Other away from Jasmine and let it concentrate on him "Well here's your chance!" he yelled. He could feel Ave clawing at his mind but he'd used the last of his energy back in the city and he couldn't afford to let Ave have his fun. "Have to keep his attacks aimed at me..." he thought sending another wave forwards.

I... should go help Andy. Tempest thought, tightening his grip on his mother's bow. No way man, his rational side said, I need my rest, the other's can handle it. He ignored his rational side and slowly shuffled to a kneeling position. Pain lanced through is back again, but it was dulled by the charged electricity. He saw what Roxa was doing, and decided to help. Tempest raised his hand and qucikly brought it down. Five tiny bolts came out of the sky and shot for the other Andy.
