An innocent heart is purged of its innocence. Amber eyes, burn and seethe at the cruelties of the world. Love gives way to hate. Justice bows to vengeance. And the skies are eclipsed as the Black Stars descend from the skies...

KACRACK!
A pillar of red fulmination came crashing down!
"Impressive, you managed to avoid it... the light reflecting off of your bald head must've affected my aim somewhat.." The Prince of Lightning jibed.
"GRRRRGH! How dare he!? He's the last person we need to see right now!" Maalik seethed.
"Master, sure he's powerful. Perhaps even more powerful than the fiery one. But surely..." Mawt paused.
"But surely, we three can slay him. We have the element of surprise. I doubt he knows that Origin have access to most basic Qudra. And... he doesn't know how are uniquely inherited Qudras work. Master... he's history!" Qabr concluded with a dubious vim.
"Very well, on this occasion, we shall step out of the shadows and into the light. In order to remove this wretched one from a world that's soon to be mine! Attack!" Maalik erupted with self exulting confidence.
DM! BAM, POW, THWACK!
"Argh! How did he reach us that quickly!?" Mawt shrieked with panic!
"It felt near instantaneous!" Qabr added, whilst a bead of fearful sweat escaped from his forehead.
"H-HE'S COMING! SCATTER!" Maalik bellowed, as the three of them leapt back in different directions.
"It's pointless... I've already marked you from before... I can warp to you instantly. Naturally, guys like you who need to hide in the trees and scheme on my younger brother, wouldn't stand a chance against me..." Jaleel uttered, as he speed blitzed Mawt, striking her into the ground. He looked down at her with a malicious smile, before placing his hand on the back of her head, "This is... almost too easy..." And at once, her body began to violently convulse and spark.
The birds in the trees dispersed, as Mawt let out a blood curdling scream.
Qabr's eyes stared wide. Teetering between fear and anger. I've never heard her scream like that, h-he's going to kill her!
Without delay, Maalik swiped his shoulder with his right hand, causing a spectral zip to appear on it. He gestured with his left hand and the zip closed up and vanished, sloshing off a thin layer of skin. This fool is too arrogant, I'll soon make you bow.. Jaleel..
"So you've removed my marker... congratulations..." Jaleel uttered sarcastically.
"GET OFF OF HER!" Qabr wailed. At once, ghostly strings shot from his fingertips and bore into the ground! A roaring quake rumbled, as the ground burst open and unleashed a macabre mob of decomposing bodies at Jaleel.
Kacrack!
Jaleel warped above Qabr! But before he could strike, one of Qabr's reanimates fired a barrage of spikes at him!
"So... you have access to the Qudra of the dead too..." Jaleel deduced, as he manoeuvred mid-air.
"Mawt!" Qabr screamed! Immediately casting his strings upon her and flinging her towards the airborne Jaleel.
