EPISODE 62 — The Second Erasure
⚔️ EPISODE 62 — The Second Erasure
📖 Subtitle: "Only instinct remains."
---
🎬 SCENE 1: Plunging into living oblivion — 0.7 seconds later
The environment no longer truly exists: the arena has become liquid, the reflections of memories twisting into nebulous spirals.
The two combatants, Eclipse-777 and Kalkhem, are now fractured versions of themselves. One loses his connections, the other gains pure instinct.
💢 Eclipse — half of her right arm has become translucent. She can no longer feel her skin.
💢 Kalkhem — an open fracture in his hip, but he is not bleeding. He has forgotten that it hurts.
> ⚡ They strike.
⚔️ They no longer speak.

🎬 SCENE 2: Brute force attack phase
🌌 Eclipse-777 continues:
Physical combo: "Enlightened Series" — 8 straight hits, but each impact burns its own memory.
🔹 Effect: Eclipse forgets Kael's existence.
🔹 Damage: Kalkhem loses two teeth, but blocks the last blow with his forehead.
She then triggers "Spectral Implosion" — a non-lethal technique, but one that destabilises the sensory areas of the brain.
🌀 Result: Kalkhem sees double, but attacks randomly with a knee to Eclipse's collarbone.
> 💥 Eclipse crashes into a mirror, then spins back, her own face fragmented in the reflections.
---
🎬 SCENE 3: Kalkhem's instinctive counterattack
He claws at the space with his nails (transformed into obsidian spikes).
> 🩸 "Scratch of the Primitive Void"
He strikes Eclipse's stomach, generating a field of negation around her. Her body now refuses to register pain.
🔻 Eclipse loses the sensation of pain, but also her sense of balance.
She falls, misses a dodge and takes a blow to the sternum.
⚠️ She forgets her own date of birth.
> 💬 Eclipse (gasping): "Who am I?!"
---
🎬 SCENE 4: Head-on collision — Extreme damage
They lunge at each other. No more technique. Just survival.
💢 Eclipse wraps her legs around Kalkhem's torso and releases a proximity plasma wave.
💢 Kalkhem responds with a brutal, primitive bite to the shoulder.
Reverse memory explosion:
– Eclipse loses sight of her own silhouette.
– Kalkhem forgets what an opponent is.
They move away, on their knees. The scenery spins.

🎬 SCENE 5: The last second of lucidity
For a fraction of a moment, their eyes meet.
> 💬 Eclipse (broken voice): "If I can't remember why I'm fighting... then have I already won?"
> 💬 Kalkhem (murmuring): "...You look like... nothing. Like me."
They rise, in slow motion, with a trembling aura.
> Eclipse activates her last forbidden technique:
🟥 "Origin Split" — she cuts through the ground and time in a frozen 0.6-second line.
> Kalkhem responds with "Total Body Inversion" — he reverses his skeleton and strikes upside down with his knees and elbows turned backwards.
💥 Mutual shock.
Their two bodies crash into the centre in a flash of white light.

🎬 SCENE 6: Oblivion as silence
Everything turns white. There is no longer an arena. No more floor. No more walls.
Only two shapes on the ground.
Their breathing is inaudible.
Their memories are empty.
Their bodies are still there... but they no longer know why.
📣 A cosmic referee's voice (off-screen):
> 🗣️ "The fight continues... because oblivion is not yet total."

> "When you strike your reflection... is it you who bleeds, or what you no longer want to be?"
