Fpe - Apocalypse AU

10 - Finale

Abbie would be laying on the platform he was kicked onto, writhing in pain from the deep gash in his side and the force of Alice's kick. He would get enough strength to look toward the main platform, seeing Alice slowly approaching Bubble. "N..no..!" Abbie said. He was too in pain to do much, the flesh that made contact with Alice's blade felt like it was burning. "Fuck.." Abbie said, soon beginning to curl up, starting to cry. He felt Hopeless. "I.. why.."

Meanwhile, with Miss Circle,

Miss Circle would get up, noticing a now-Puppetted Miss Thavel, and Miss Bloomie. Miss Circle's stature would falter, feeling unsure. "Miss Thavel.. I'm Sorry," She said, reaching for her gun, only to realise she dropped it. "Shit.." she now only had her sword to rely on, and her compass hand. The two puppets would begin to approach, while Miss Circle would get into a defensive position.

With Engel,

Engel was busy Running and dodging Claire, trying to tire out the monster before trying to attack. So far, it was working. He was kept out of the grasp of 'Claire' for the most part. But he had limited stamina, and he didnt know if Claire was similar. Eventually, he would dodge one of Claire's Strikes, swinging the Hatchet he had into the back of Claire's knee, causing her to Screech in Pain, kicking Engel away. Now Engel didnt have a weapon, and he had even more pains.. Engel would fall on the ground, writhing in pain. Eventually, Claire would pick him up. Due to this Claire being emotionless, she would simply crush Engel, killing him.

With Edward..

Edward was fighting against the Puppeted Form of Zip, while he did this, he was practically Bawling his eyes out. He was trying not to hurt Zip at all. "Zip, please..!! I know you can hear me..! I dont want to fight you!" Edward said, his tone sounding desperate. He wanted to see if Zip could be saved like Engel. Edward's tone would make Zip falter a bit, her memories making her resist slightly. But, Her mind was filled with the thoughts that she was left behind. The memories would be buried, and she would continue the attack. Edward couldnt keep this up much longer..

With Bubble,

Alice would swipe Bubble's weapon out of her hand, smirking "you're not very good at this.. are you?" She said, with a tone of insanity.  Bubble would put her fists up, her composure breaking quite a bit "G-get away!" Bubble said. She was obviously terrified. Alice would cut Bubble right through the abdomen, causing Bubble to let out a noise of intense pain as she fell to the ground. She was still alive, but not for long. "Pathetic Mortal beings.. i almost feel bad... nah.." Alice said, deciding to check up on Miss Circle.

With Miss Circle and the two puppets, Miss Circle was holding her own, for the most part. Suddenly, the puppet would back off, making space between themselves and Miss Circle "what the..?" Miss Circle said, keeping her gaurd up. Suddenly, Alice would land on the platform, making Miss Circle Jump. "I see we both have alot on our schedules, so let's make this quick.." Alice said. She didnt seem to like Miss Circle's Survival, so she would summon a spike, in response, Miss Circle would get her weapons up. Right after, though, Alice would send it through Miss Circle's compass, impaling her through the chest, killing her instantly. Alice would laugh, looking over to where Abbie was. He was still writhing in pain. "Hm, pathetic.. ill save him for past..." Alice said, before teleporting next to the platform Edward was on.

Edward was on the backfoot, as he didnt know how to handle a shortsword. Eventually, Zip would knock Edward's sword out of the way, and then slicing Edward across the chest, making him fall backward "a-ack..! N-no.." Edward said, looking up at Zip. "P-please.." he said, tears streaming down his cheeks. Zip wouldnt respond, finishing off Edward. "Marvelous.. now for the final thorn in my side.." Alice said, smiling maniacally.

With Abbie..

Abbie would begin to feel a surge of Energy, causing him to sit up, as the pain practically dissapeared. "W-what..?" He would look at where the gash was, and it was gone. Something was off.. he had never felt this energized or well since forever.. Abbie's Hands would begin to feel tingly, and so Abbie would look at them both. His fingers looked darker. Eventually the Tingling feeling would spread to his entire forearm, with the 'darker' skin spreading to his entire hand and wrists. It wasnt like the burning feeling he felt back at the forest, but it still made him a little afraid. 

Abbie's mind would suddenly get bombarded with memories, instructions on how to use powers he never knee he had. But one Memory would appear near the end, of an unknown being being sealed inside of a vessel. One of the being sealing the other inside, was Alice. A section of Abbie's mind would activate. His look of fear would be replaced with determination. "The end of Alice is near.." He said. Grabbing his sword from the floor. He would then levitate up. Abbie's form looked a little different, as his clothes were more torn, and patches of Grayed skin were across his body. Alice, who was heading over to Abbie, would stop upon seeing Abbie. "What..?" Alice said, her grip tightening on her scythe. "How.." she would stare at Abbie, angered at this development. "Well.. this will just make it more fun, no matter.."

Abbie would point the tip of his blade toward Alice, a look of anger in his eyes. He had noticed the gore of his friends, and it made him pissed. He was more determined than ever to achieve revenge, no.. justice. Alice would make the first move, teleporting in front of Abbie to try and strike him with her scythe. Abbie would use his blade to block the attack, making sparks as their blades slid against eachother. Abbie would position himself, kicking Alice in the stomach and sending her backward. "Agh!" Alice would place her hands onto her stomach, before looking at Abbie. "You.. pathetic.. disgrace! This isnt what i've foreseen!" Alice said. "You don't deserve to beat me!" She would morph into her true form, now truely towering over Abbie. Not like that would help her.

Abbie would teleport in front of Alice, swinging down onto her. Alice would dodge, swinging her claws in the direction of Abbie. Abbie would get swatted by Alice, and as result, get sent back many aways.

"Barely a scratch.." Abbie said, before retaliating. He would place his Sword in it's spot on his belt, before teleporting in front of Alice and punching her square in the chest, sending a shockwave and sending Alice into a wall, and outside the castle. Abbie would follow closely, not wanting Alice to rethink anything. For the next 3 minutes, sword and scythe would clash as the two battled for supremacy. This would end with a clash between sword and scythe.

"You.. you arent meant to win!" Alice said, now seeming frantic, she realised she did not have the upper hand. "Y-you're a pawn, made to kneel!" Abbie would grab Alice's neck, "you will BURN." Abbie said, stabbing Alice in the stomach, his blade catching fire and searing Alice's insides, making Alice shriek in pain. Abbie would drop Alice, causing her to fall into the earth. Abbie would soon follow. On the ground, Alice was on her hands and knees, now in her normal form, as so much energy was being spent on keeping her Alive, she couldnt afford to keep her True form. Abbie would land in front of Alice.

"You ruined... everything..!" Alice said, angered.

"I fixed everything. You were the ruiner." Abbie said, pointing the tip of his Sword to Alice's head. "Pitiful."

"You will regret this.. you'll see! Without royalty your land will collapse.." Alice said, attempting to plea. Abbie wouldnt say a word, swinging his blade and cutting Alice's head clean off her shoulders.

A shockwave would sound from Alice's corpse. This shockwave would free the people Alice had under her control, and it would revive those killed, whilst rebuilding some infrastructure. "It's over.." Abbie said, looking over at the city. He would fall to his knees, dropping his sword.

"Finally.."
