[Unique Trait: Fragment of Mephistopheles has been activated.]
'What the fuck's going on?' Colin thought, his mind sluggish and his thoughts flowed slowly as he looked around him, where he could only see pitch black darkness, with faint red lines running along the ground.
'I've...been here before.' Colin thought and searched his memories, before his eyes widened.
"Mephistopheles!!!" Colin roared angrily, and continued to shout his name in the darkness, but there was no answer. A translucent blue honey comb barrier appeared around him, and he could feel his thoughts moving faster than before, and his memories started flooding back faster.
"That bastard took over my body didn t he? Damn it!!" Colin said angrily and punched the ground, which only rippled a bit.
"Calm down, there must be a way to get through this." Colin said and started brainstorming.
***********************************************
"What the fuck's going on? First war and now Colin." Bartus said as he looked at the creature that emerged from the pillar of hellfire. It's skin was pale like a sheet of white paper, his irises glowed a malicious red and his sclera was abyssal black, there were black cracks under his eyes that looked like black veins. He had long black hair that seemed to suck up all the light around it and two equally black pair of wings that were wider than before and two onyx black horns adorned his head that looked like they were made of metal and forged in hell as glowing red lines ran through them. The rune on his right hand expanded to cover his entire chest, glowing with power. A yin-yang, with the white part being crimson red, side appeared under his feet, rotating quickly and absorbing the demonic energy at a rapid pace.
"Cursed Pheonix Flames." He said, and his entire body was engulfed in hellfire, and not once has his eyes left War. War silently stared at him, holding her scythe over her shoulder as it gleamed in the sunlight. His mind raced with thoughts, evaluating her strength and he clicked his tongue when he realised just how fucked he was.
"Are you done?" War said, the tone of her voice different, gentler.
"No, I just need another minute." 'Colin' said, looking at the gauntlets in his hand, and threw them off with disgust and turned towards Skorn with a wide smile, making him flinch.
"Alright, it's only right for me to give an INFERIOR COPY time to prepare themselves." 'War' said, in the same tone, with a crazy grin on her face. Hearing the words 'inferior copy made Colin want to start fighting immediately, but his rational mind made him not.
"You, big green guy and small butterfly fellow, come here." Colin said, but both Skorn and Bartus looked at each other before moving away, but Colin wasn't playing around. He opened his palm, and they were dragged towards him before the two of them were enveloped in hellfire.
"You bastard." Bartus screamed, but Colin only looked at them with a amused expression. As the flames continued to burn them both and they screamed, they realized that they weren't actually burning, but their wounds were actually healing. Additionally, the yin yang sign under his feet also grew larger and they could feel their DP increasing.
"What..." Bartus wanted to ask as he felt brand new, but Colin grabbed both his and Skorn's jaw and brought them closer.
"Shhhhh, be quiet and listen, inferior demons. Currently, we are in deep shit, way deeper than anything you have ever been in before. That GREEN BITCH..." Colin said looking over at War with a smirk, making her growl at him threateningly as her body was surrounded by Ether flames, a pale yellow flame with spots of red in it.
"...over there is going to kill us in a moment if you don't follow my orders fully. Now, you inferior demons are expendable...no wait, I'm not supposed to tell you that. What I wanted to say was that you guys will be at the forefront of the battle. I'll support you from the back. You guys need to be careful of those strange flames, I'll increase your physical abilities and defence to give you better chances of surviving." Colin said and his nails extended as he carved symbols into their forehead as they screamed in pain. They tried to struggle, but their bodies didn t move, which terrified them to no end.
"Hell Rage." Colin said and the runes on their forehead glowed red as red lines extended from it, covering their faces. Their bodies were surrounded by thin hellfire. They could feel their physical, no, all their abilities increase in power, but they also felt excruciating pain, pain so terrible that they felt that they were going to faint at any moment, but the increased strength made sure they didn't.
"Now, I'm not going to lie to you, our chances are grim. And even if you somehow survive this....I'm going to kill both of you or worse...shit, why do I keep telling you things you don't need to know? Stupid Mephistopheles." Colin said irritatedly, but Skorn and Bartus were more concerned about the endless pain that courses through their veins.
[What the Fuck is going on?!!!] Skorn asked Bartus, while fighting the pain
[No idea, but I know, whoever the fuck that is, it isn't Colin...and that woman, War, changed as well. We need to somehow get the fuck out of here, or find to get Colin back.] Bartus said
[Are kill them both?] Skorn said and Bartus looked between Colin and War.
[Not likely, better to try and get Colin back.] Bartus said, when suddenly he saw weapons from the battlefield flying towards them and floated midair.
"Are you done?" War asked
"Yep." Colin said and War smiled
"Good." She said and slashed her scythe, causing a wave of ether flames to rush towards them.
