Sehki, Lorena, and the rest of the crew watched on as Taylor's body was mutated into a void-fae hybrid, growing in mass and size, gaining purple skin, and the wings of the fairy briefly emerged while the Volans and Cancer constellation shined across his body.
Silence. His body finished embracing his new form as Cluster pulled out a device, absorbing the essence into a switch.
"What is he?"
"He's not a Voidvok or a Constain! This is way more dangerous."
From the royal rooms far across Coastrosity, the counselors called over the queen.
"My boy, Taylor was sent over there," calling him by phone.
Ainsley left a laboratory with an essence they labeled Shakuheld, sensing a disturbance.
Xia was ordering tickets for the Victory Rider Blazer movie in Cusp Central, confused as to why there were Quilter messages about a strange noise from higher up in the city.
Rigal and his inner circle halted, trying to figure out why their chat was asking them about the weird circle while having no idea why Taylor didn't show up like they planned.
"Correct," Cluster claimed. "Level Three: In:Void, Complete."
Taylor lunged over the enigmatic figure. Lorena stretched over to rubble, Gako summoned feathers to carry the rest of the crew, while Yessenia grabbed the bike.
InVoid Taylor's hand blew them all back, aiming to crush Sehki: pulled from safety by his newfound ally, wobbling his head.
"I thought Voids became stronger through eating magic. Now people?"
"This is so amazing! But we could die! Should we keep rolling?"
"Well what's taking the authorities so long?"
"Even then, if we tell them the truth, you heirs are usually off limits unless enough complaints are appealed."
"He sucked his teeth. "No one else but the strip club has the balls to kick them out?"
Gako got them close to the edge of the shoot locations far from the slums with wider land from the sea. Sehki sighed.
"Sigh, everyone else, evacuate the city, contact both Cusp and Coastrosity's authorities and let them know their son is in danger," about to run back to face InVoid Taylor when he fell down, drained.
"Don't tell me you're going to fight him?"
"Being a prince or king means nothing if we can't protect our people!" He ripped the shadows off one of the motorcycles, combining it and molding it. He tried to jump on but tripped over himself.
"You're spent," Lorena chided, pulling him up. "You can't take this on alone!"
"I beat him already," laughing while cough. "Just need a bit more magic energy."
As he was about to close, energy flowed in his body with Starz's hands as the medium.
"Producer?"
"Please, I insist. I'm just a person who was inspired to make shows."
Most of the rest of the film crew, including the stunt actors, granted their energy for him to use.
"Hey, you're all vulnerable without magic!"
"Pot calling kettle black," Lorena added, granting him a bit.
He got a call from an unknown source from his new phone. "Hello?"
"Demon Prince, it's Failure Clone. Not sure if phones are tapped."
"Hey, long story, Hydro Heir got forcibly merged with a Void. Someone sent me some intel."
"My guiding star. Well what is it?"
"At a lab we had a Void in containment with his subject. They got attracted to my new medicine, so I took a sample. Usually when you defeat a Void the magic returns to the fae while its essence returns into the world. But when I pressed it into the Void, the person's energy was reverted back."
"Whatever my StellArt is?"
"Can eliminate the negative Void essence permanently. I don't know why they wanted me to test it out, but we need to get Taylor back."
"Do we really?"
"You're the one who said we'd stop the Voids together," they teased.
"Fine." The motorcycle turned to him with concern. "You're getting some sentience huh," climbing up. "Failure Clone. Tell the others to hurry up, I'll do what I can. See ya," hanging up.
He hopped on and revved up the shadow bike. "The stars shine for our Victory," racing through the building sets and abandoned homes until jumping over the edge of the roof and ramming into the water heir's body.
He turned his shadow into a claw, punch him into another prop apartment.
"Now I get to embarrass you twice in a row!"
Taylor's eyes briefly reverted to normal before his zodiac powers kicked in, converting his arms into a metallic crab arm and arm made up of shark teeth.
"Dumb hero! Won't," snarling, "stop our people," leaping to skewer him.
His shadow's hands barely caught Taylor's attacks in time, now face to face. He already stopped one of his four bullies, now it was time to finish the other.
He swung around InVoid Taylor's body in an attempt to find an opening, but with each physical strike, his opponent took it with little struggle, slapping him back towards the lab set. Sehki had no choice but to roll underneath and flip away from his hefty swings, targeting with the dark whip that only chipped off the essence.
More power, huh. Taylor threw him towards the prop center, finding more additional sets to use: a replica of Blazer's weapon was a rapier with a lion and Aqua's hydra whip.
He jumped from Taylor's hand crush attempt, shadow wiping his arms around and chipping with several dark rapier strikes. The InVoid screamed, swinging up a whirlpool and catching him in to throw him out, forcing them to fly up to the ceiling to avoid them.
The InVoid swung the massive wave around themselves. Sehki was prepared to sink into the ground when a giant whale flew in front of him, tanking the attack.
"You're one of the actors," asked an officer in a Cusp Central uniform forming the aura of Cetus, a giant whale.
Taylor jumped airborne, turning the rain into a five story flying fish projectile rivalizing the whale's size when a giant battleship bashed into her body.
"Argo Navis Division, reporting. We got a call Prince Taylor was in danger," shown by three men in navy-royal clothing controlling. "You don't need some barely functioning militia for aid."
While she matched the tension with a spray from the whale's blowhole, Sehki smiled.
"I'll need you both. Let's save Prince Taylor!"
