"You were made a L'Cie... by Etro!?"
Noctis stared on in disbelief at the young boy in front of him; he don't know how the kid got here when he had returned to look for Cosmos; the boy only seemed to be eight to ten years old in appearance.
"Get away from me!" the younger male seemed to say in some distress, as suddenly a bright glow came from the black symbol clearly tattooed on the boy's lower arm.
"That symbol... what is it, and where did you get it from?"
Even if the young boy wanted to, there was no time to answer, as a large glyph appeared from underneath the boy followed by his screaming. The symbol on his arm was giving him pain, shooting out a bright energy, beams around him shooting off into the sky. Seconds later, a large meteor descended from the sky; at least that's what it felt like when it landed, as the boy went flying back while Noctis slid back on his feet. After the dust settled, a large, robotic-like humanoid appeared as it stepped forward, casting a dark spell over the small child that was squealing in pain as it got up behind the Prince.
Summoning his Falchion, Noctis leapt swiftly in battle to protect the younger male, running towards it to take a good solid hit at it's face. The giant raised a fist towards him as he approached, before a large explosion sent Noctis flying backwards across the shallow water of the world, this time hearing a high-pitched squeal unlike ever before. Picking himself up, he looked up to see the boy had been struck by the explosion too; but unlike himself, he remained lifeless, unmoving. Instinctively, Noctis ran over to his side, checking his pulse and his breathing for signs of life. "C'mon kid... don't die on me now." he grunted in concern, feeling no signs of life, looking on at the loss of movement and shine in the young boy's eyes. Before he knew it, his hands flinched away as shards started floating up around the boy, encasing him in a block of solid crystal, before both him and the block vanished in a flash of light.
"No... no...!" Noctis uttered in disbelief, his ebony black hair turning into a shade of lighter navy, his eyes shifting from that very same color into a darker amber, those orbs glancing up at the Eidolon known as Alexander. Noticing the writing written on the mechanical beast's armor, appearing to be written only in a language of the gods similar to Latin, it read:
By the grace of Etro, stand fast your walls of stern judgment. Come forth, fortress of sanctity.
Fortified virtue. Shattered iniquity.
A name in blood, a pact of light. Alexander shall rise, his bond eternal and unyielding.
"Blood... virtue!? What kind of virtue is this, to kill a child!? Who are you to judge us!? ETRO!!!" he yelled, quite vividly angry, even further so when Alexander moved to cast Doom on him to signify the start of his own death clock.

(OOC: I realize Alexander from FFXIII is Hope's Eidolon (don't read the rest of this if you don't want FFXIII-2 spoilers) but after Etro freed Hope of his fate as a L'Cie and because we don't have one applied ofr yet, it would make sense any other L'Cie Etro would send her Eidolons to now they're freed up. So I only had Alexander kill off a NPC doomed to fail being a L'Cie to make Noctis angry towards Etro, as her messenger, for his plotline and I plan to have him fight replicas of them all. xD Maybe Alexander will be one of Noctis's summons in Versus as there will be summons, if that's the case, consider this the Eidolon's taming for when I apply for it in future. ^__^)
Boss: Alexander Eidolon (FFXIII)
HP: 24
Note: Noctis has Doom cast on him and will automatically be KO'ed the battle in six turns. Defeat Alexander before time runs out!
Noctis: (TBA)
Alexander:
Doom: Casting it on the leader, the Eidolon will insantly KO the target in a limited amount of time unless the leader's party can first defeat it in a test of strength. (Once per thread.)

Another place. Another time.
Stella opened her eyes in a new place, like so many times before. The dark portals that materialized out of nowhere, the same that took her from Tenebrae to another world, brought her to a new area. The Princess of Tenebrae stood up, cleaning the dust from her dark skirt as she tried to regain calm. She was starting to get annoyed of being tossed from world to world without her permission, having the feeling that she was nothing more then a mere puppet, whose strings were pulled by someone higher then her. Was that Etro’s doing? Would the Goddess of Death toss her from one side to the other just for her own sick entertainment? Stella shock her head. That couldn’t be true. She was a faithful follower of Etro. She believed that if that was Etro’s wish, she had a reason to make the girl jump between worlds in a constant basis. Whatever the purpose was, Stella only had to accept it, cause Etro would guide her in her way.
Stella took a deep breath and looked at the new place she had landed. A vast desert of nothingness. The floor seemed to be made of crystalline water as she noticed her reflection underneath her feet, but it wasn’t water. The skies above her head, endless and filled with grey clouds, allowing light to appear in a shy manner to bathe the surroundings. No sound could be heard. It appeared devoided of life, but even so, Stella could feel peace. It was like if her body was filled with joy and hope, in a world where darkness did not reside. A world where all her feelings of despair and fear were dissipated by the mere presence of that light that descended from Heaven. Could it be the place where Etro resided? The place where the Goddess of Death rested? Such feeling was making Stella’s heart beat faster. If it was the place where Etro was… Stella had to find out.
The Fleuret heir started to slowly walk, looking around with her blonde hair and clothes devoided of movements since there was no wind there. It was peaceful. Too peaceful even. That was the suiting place for the resting place of a Goddess. Nothing existed there besides the clouds above her head and the water beneath her feet. Stella turned around, trying to visualize something else in her visual field. Ruins of what seemed to be sculptures or walls of pristine white were scattered around the white desert. Maybe something had existed there after all. Maybe a huge castle or some sort of place where the Goddess did reside. But now, only water, clouds and ruins. And silence. Stella could almost hear her heart beat across that vast ocean of nothingness. The princess joined her hands as if she was praying, asking for Etro’s guidance in such place. If she was there, to please, please give her a sign of her divine presence.
Suddenly, Stella felt all of her body shiver, similar to an electric shock that ran throw all of her body. She opened her eyes and saw four brilliant pillars of light trespass the grey clouds on the sky. What was that? Her blue eyes opened wider as from the middle of the clouds, a huge meteor appeared. The energy that surrounded her was massive, too much to belong to a human. Was that the signal that she was hoping? Was that Etro’s doing? The meteor seemed to crash of the ground in a severe impact. Stella was not near the location but she covered her face with both arms as the blast of gust from the impact almost threw her out of balance. What in the world was that? Stella looked again, once the wind blast ended, trying to find some clue to what had indeed happened. A soft glow of golden light shined in the distance. Could that… be Etro?
The Princess ran. She ran like there was no tomorrow towards the golden light that became brighter at each step she took. Her heart was beating out of control. The thought of that Light belonging to Etro made her restless. Nothing could stop her from reaching that place. She prayed for the Goddess and she heard it. Etro gave her the signal she asked for it. The four light pillars, the meteor, the massive energy and now… the golden halo that materialized on the horizon. Stella truly wanted for that light to belong to Etro. Her Goddess, her protector. When she got near, she did not saw Etro. A huge mechanical giant stood there. Golden armour and a imposing presence. His energy was something that Stella had never felt before. Something… divine, although emanated the same type of energy that she did when she tapped into the gift that Etro graced her with.
Then her eyes saw him. The black clothes. The light navy hair. The Falchion. No. It couldn’t be possible. Not him, not here. Stella gasped as she realized that it was true. Prince Noctis was standing a couple of feet away from her. The only person she wanted to see the most since that crazy world jumping thing happened. So close to her. Her heart beated faster, like wanting to jump from her chest. Her blue eyes became wet as she tried to suppress a happy tear. Why was she so happy to see him again? Stella couldn’t answer that question even if she wanted. They were enemies. They fought against each other before. But there was something there. Something that made her heart beat faster then before at the sight of Noctis.
She took a step towards him, hoping and praying that he was real. No illusion, no dream. Just… plain reality. Only when the golden giant moved to cast something against Noctis, did Stella realized that the prince was about to fight the divine creature. What? Why? Why would Noctis fight a creature sent by Etro? Didn’t he felt that energy? That power? But the sight of Noctis alone facing the creature, made Stella decide. Summoning her yellow glyph behind her, the princess summoned her Rapier, rushing towards the prince. Stella only desire was that Noctis wouldn’t attack her on that moment. She was there to aid him, not fight against him.
“Prince Noctis!” Stella said as she rushed towards him. She still couldn’t believe he was there. So close to her. Real and not just an illusion or a trick of her mind. He was real. “Can I provide you with some assistance?” The Fleuret heir positioned herself next to the prince in a defensive stance, holding her Rapier in the right hand as she looked to the mechanical beast in front of her. “What in Etro’s name is that?”

There was a reflection upon the water, as Noctis staggered, feeling his very life force being squeezed as the cold, icy touch of death was strangling around his very soul. As he flinched and moved a hand to steady the violent flow of deah magic over him, he saw the bright, yellowish flash dancing gingerly over the shadow water of the ground, yet it was coming from behind him. Not from the light Alexander had made upon it's entrance, and Noctis had to glance over his shoulder at the sense of the familiar pulse of energy. Moving backwards in surprise, he was shocked to see who was standing there. He backed away slightly at first, feeling his heart stop and start racing all at once from his initial feelings upon first seeing her at that peace conference, but that was washed away as he also remembered the last time they had met with the betrayal of her ambush.
"Stella... what are you doing here...?" he uttered breathlessly, feeling like he had now been set upon by two opponents he had to face alone. Behind him, his blue crest was also drawn out in neon lines behind him to exaggerate his emotional state, as he shifted to use the full potential of his powers. Falchion still in hand, he kept the two in his vision, forming distance between the three of them. As Stella rushed towards him, he tensed himself, expecting an attack as she drew closer. But she did not raise her elegant rapier against him; instead, she turned to stand aside him, as if to face the creature alongside the Prince.
He didn't know if she genuinely wanted to help him because of their initial meeting which seemed warm, or she was just aiding him to eliminate the enemy so she could finish him off herself while he was weakened from their last encounter where she had acted coldy; but he didn't have time to decide the reason behind Stella's actions nor argue against her temporary alliance with him.
"It's an eidolon, sent with that light that we can both see." he uttered, glancing over that strange goddess writing that had appeared in the glyph during the summoning and on the creature's shoulder armor, as if to confirm his own beliefs that it was a messenger of the goddess herself. That was all he could utter as Alexander had begun to move in the time that they had been speaking to attack, and Noctis moved into action. Having already entered his Limit Break form at the beginning of his battle due to his change of the hue in his hair and eyes, he began to gather wisps and streaks of energy around his form as his all his weapons shimmered out of thin air around him, orbiting rapidly as they rotated on a single ring around him. Immediately running forward as the slow eidolon continued to move, Noctis acted first, leaping quickly at the eidolon with his Falchion in his hand. He attacked first with weapons teleporting in and out of his hands as he struck with his swallow blade, then his lance, machine gun, axe, handcannon, shortsword, serated polearm, rifle, and lastly his horn-shaped spear. Teleporting around Alexander as he struck from all angles swiftly and brutally, his Falchion appeared in his hands once more for the final strike of Master of Weapons, before he teleported a final time above Alexander and aimed for the joints in his armor at the neck, turning the mechanical sword up-side down in his hands in a stabbing motion and impaled the giant in the crevasses of it's golden and ivory armor.
But he was not done yet. After his execution of the powerful combo, Noctis used Teleportation a final time, summoning his Spear to attempt to impale the weak facial armor of the gargantuan Eidolon in an attempt to find a weakness. As the momentum of striking the creature pushed him back a distance, the mighty summon creature finished it's eventual action. It raised it's fist and swatted the Prince out of the air with a mighty fist of it's Steelcrusher attack, sending the male flying backwards and through one of the tall remaining ivory ruins that were shattered across this goddess' landscape. With Noctis momentarily taken care of, the giant fixated it's focus on Stella, bringing it's other almighty fist towering down on her in a explosive Obliterator.

Boss: Alexander Eidolon (FFXIII)
HP: 19 (Noctis' Master of Weapons + Teleportation cooldown = 5.
24 - 5 = 19.)
Note: Noctis has Doom cast on him and will automatically be KO'ed the battle in five turns. Defeat Alexander before time runs out!
Noctis:
Master of Weapons: When he sustains enough damage or collects enough energy as he collides with opponents in battle, Noctis can enter his 'limit break' form, which his hair and eyes changes color. The ability to wield all his weapons at once he can use in this form, while the form is available for a limited time. With this altered appearance in combat, to wield them in his final attack, he unleashes them on a single or multiple opponents with using one of his ten weapons at a time with a total of ten strikes, the last strike with his Falchion coming down in a impaling strike being the most powerful and hardest to dodge (much like how he impaled a solider in the trailer, or Sephiroth's Prison Gate attack used to impale Aerith, although the opponent gets to decide the angle of which the strike hits them). Because of the force behind this attack, it cannot be blocked, and upon using it he returns back to his normal black-haired, blue-eyed self and using only as many weapons as there are opponents. (This is much like the Knights of the Round summon, or Cloud's Omnislash Version Five attack as a visual reference. Cooldown: He must wait for three posts/turns and then have three successful attacks/abilities/powers damaging him before he can use this limit break again.)
Teleportation Used in conjunction with his Telekinesis, he can teleport to any weapon on the field he has moved with his telekinesis, and use that weapon swiftly. He can then teleport again once having used that weapon or the power of that weapon, and only after someone has interrupted him can he teleport again. (Can teleport to up to two weapons per post/turn, or in other words three weapons per post/turn, at the cost of a cooldown for two turns.)
Alexander:
Doom: Casting it on the leader, the Eidolon will insantly KO the target in a limited amount of time unless the leader's party can first defeat it in a test of strength. (Once per thread.)
Steelcrusher: Inflicts physical damage on one opponent. Cooldown: One turn/round/post.
Obliterator: Inflicts major physical damage on one opponent. Two turns to cooldown.

Stella stood silent as Noctis glanced over her. She could only imagine how his head – and heart- felt in that moment. Last time they’ve met, they were on opposite sides and crossed swords as mortal enemies. Now, the Princess of Tenebrae, his former rival, was right next to him, wanting to help him against the gigantic creature. She couldn’t even guess how Noctis was. But whatever the problem he had with her, that would have to wait. Right now she wanted to aid him in that fight, hopefully beating the hell out of that monstrosity before her and the prince suffered some severe damage. Her blue eyes kept focused on the walking beast as she heard what Noctis had to say.
“Why I’m here doesn’t matter right now, Noct.” She answered his first question quickly. “Just believe me when I say that I’m here to help.” Stella could almost smile as she heard his voice again. It’s been so long since they saw each other and she really missed the sound of his voice. Whether they were enemies before, now she was there to aid him against the mechanical monster. Noctis would have to trust her. That was going to be hard to do but it was the truth. Stella really wished to help the prince from the bottom of her heart. Even being in different sides in their home world due to the crystal, now they were together again. Noctis had some scores to settle with her, she knew that, but it would have to be after dealing with the problem in hands.
The light. The blue crest. Noctis was getting ready to fight against the beast with all his might. Stella couldn’t even believe when he said what the creature was. An Eidolon sent by the Light they both were able to see. An Eidolon sent… by Etro? Why would she do that? Was that a test of power? To see if Noctis was able to… do something? Stella took a step back at the mention of the Light. “You mean… Etro sent this? Why would she do such a thing? Is she trying to test you, Noct?” What were Etro’s intentions? That didn’t made any sense. Sent a thing called Eidolon to fight Noctis… Maybe it was some sort of trial. Stella believed in that. No way Etro would put them in danger. It had to be a trial, it had to be! Stella’s heart beated faster as she tried to process this new found information. Etro… was there? In the form of the Eidolon? Why…?
Noctis attacked the Eidolon without mercy. Teleporting around and slashing the monster with an incredible speed. Stella stood there, watching as the Prince gave his all against it. Summoning his weapons at an incredible speed and precision. The Princess of Tenebrae could just… watch. He improved since the last time they fought. He was stronger. Now, Stella doubted that she could even stand a chance against the Prince. He was something else entirely. More dangerous, more mature. Her eyes tried to follow his swift movements but he was faster then before. She couldn’t follow him completely. It was like a death dance and Noctis was doing his part quite well.
When the Eidolon landed a hit on Noctis, Stella gasped, screaming his name out of concern. She was scared for him. “NOCTIS!” She screamed as she waved her left hand, trying to aid the Prince, but the Eidolon was focused on her now. Stella’s eyes were opened in shock as the monster attacked her in a violent way. The Princess could barely summon her weapons as a defence shield, with her “Double Passé” technique. All of her weapons appeared around her, trying to avoid any damage from the attack, but the impact was enormous. She screamed as she was tossed back, hitting the floor hard as her weapons vanished from her sight. Stella shivered, feeling her body trembling as she was trying to recover from the attack. If the shield didn’t appear at the right time, now she wouldn’t be standing there. From the corner of her eye, Stella glanced over the giant. He was indeed a mighty opponent. Putting herself up, still shaking over the explosion, the princes waved her left hand, conjuring a small ball of fire in her hand. She needed to do something. Noctis was still out. “Hey you huge piece of scrapped metal! Catch this!” She screamed as she tossed the fire ball directly to the monsters face. With a bit of luck, maybe it would do some damage. After the spell, she rushed her hand over the rapier’s blade, surrounding it with a purple aura as Stella improved the speed and strength on it. Her “Death Blossom” technique. ---- Double Passé:The 'defensive' maneuver she uses with her Telekinesis, she can arrange them to became a 'wall' in front of her, which will reflect gunfire back at the user and block most ranged attacks and spells, including even explosions. Only other weapons can damage the weapons, which she will rather not do if she can help it, so she won't use this in melee combat. (Cooldown: 1 post) Fire - (Cooldown: 1 post) Death Blossom: Since Stella's style is more defensive then Noctis, she can use her Death Blossom tecnique to quickly improve the speed of her rapier so that she can counter any frontal attacks. Like an enchantment, her rapier becomes surronded by a pink aura and is more precise into blocking attacks as long as they are frontal ones and not special/ex mode attacks. (Cooldown: 1 post)

A solid thud hit his shoulders, indescribable pain as marble shattered from his weight, and then Noctis Lucis Caelum felt his body flip heals over head backwards before he could right himself and place his hands and feet onto drenched ground. As he came to a stop, he looked up from tucking his chin in to avoid head damage, watching as Alexander assaulted Stella. He had heard her scream his name in a strange manner - almost as if there was concern for him - as well as that her claims she was there to help him against something she questioned was testing him. Test? No, that wasn't it... or if it was, it was crude and unusual. But the Eidolon had come for the boy... which was now gone.
He could have told Stella this, but it was irrelevant, and they could fret and scream about it later. Right now, in that moment, he watched as an explosion consumed Stella, and he thought about the very fate of that boy. "Stella!" he yelled, but watched as the smoke cleared and Stella built up a wall of weapons to defend herself. Immediately afterwards, she shot a small Fire spell at him, and enchanted her rapier with impossible speed. After a fraction of a second to let go of the breath he had been holding, and take another deep breath, he conjured his short sword and used Teleportation to teleport to it, appearing where it fell above Alexander and drove it this time into Alexander's shoulder armor. This was to stop him from using one of his arms to punch, and stop his devastating explosions.
Conjuring his serrated sword as the short sword disappeared, he threw it as he landed behind Alexander, the notched sword hovering in the air with Telekinesis and activating like a switchblade to slice cleanly across Alexander's armor. "Hey, big brute, over here!" he yelled, attracting Alexander's attention away from Stella. As predicted, the giant turned to face him exposing his back to Stella, but it came at a price. Alexander came at Noctis next with another Steelcrusher, a thundering fist into his chest followed by a new technique, Soaring Uppercut. A fast uppercut cleaned Noctis's clock as Noctis was launched upwards, high above Alexander, before the Eidolon turned it's attention back on Stella.

Stella hold her ground as the prince insisted on his attacks against the Eidolon. Precise, deadly… The princess could almost bet that he called her name before. When that gigantic buffoon attacked her, Stella heard his voice calling her. Was Noctis concerned about her health like she did before? No… It couldn’t be. The prince was still mad at her from the assault on his kingdom. Why would he worry about her? Made no sense at all. She did worry about him, whether Noctis believed it or not. The Fleuret heir wanted to atone for her past actions and that was why she was standing there, aiding the prince, her friend and also her enemy.
Again, Noctis struck the Eidolon with a silent fury. Deadly and focused. Why didn’t he fought like that when they crossed swords? If he did, he would have defeated her. It wouldn’t end in a draw. Her blue eyes followed his quick movements, the athletic jumps and strong strikes. How could she match such power? Even… even if they were both gifted by Etro, they both seen the Light. Noctis grew more powerful then before while she seemed to… stagnate. No improvements. At least not compared to the prince. Stella hold her rapier emanating the purple energy in front of her before taking a quick breath and rush towards the machine.
While Noctis attacked from above, Stella pulled her right arm back, using the improved speed of her rapier, slashing the knees of the giant. If he fell, maybe things could become more easy. And so Stella danced. She twirled and slashed, like a ballerina, striking the legs of the monster in front of her with all her might, in a quick and precise chain of slashes, all aiming to the monsters legs. Her resolve now was to help Noctis. Nothing else. Stella knew they had scores to settle, but for now, that Eidolon was the problem. Sent by the Light or not, together they would bring him down.
She looked up, as Noctis was yet struck by another punch of the Eidolon. He wouldn’t last longer like that. Not when the creature was attacking with such might. As Noctis was sent flying, the princess jumped back, gaining a few distance between herself and the creature, taking her left hand to her chest as she closed her eyes. A faint blue light started to emit from her left hand as she waved it towards Noctis, in a swift and elegant movement. He needed healing. He needed help. And Stella could give him that.---- Double Passé - Ready to use Fire - Ready to use Death Blosson - Ready to use Cure - Heals a small amought of damage from the caster or an ally (1 post cooldown)

Alexander turned to Stella, and immediately used Blast Punch, aiming at Stella from a distance. Before the attack could reach her, Noctis felt a wash of curative enegy over him as he was thrown into the air, feeling regenerated. Immediately he used hastened his descent with his spear, stabbing it downwards like a dragoon into the folds of Alexander's torso, both using the long weapon and his leg to push the arm of the Eidolon away from Stella and avoid her from being blasted by such a powerful attack. Alexander then attempted to grab him, Noctis using the spear as leverage to flip away, but was struck by Alexander's another hand as it swatted around. Slammed into the ground, next it used Explosive Fist point-blank at Noctis, the lights of the explosion reflecting against the splashing water as the forceful flames rocked his very existance around him.
At least Stella was safe. As he lifted up his weapon that had used to guard him from most of the blow, the rest of him wasn't worse for wear. It could have been worse without Stella's healing, but he still have tears in his clothing and bruises and wounds here and there shown through them and on his face and arms. This had to end and end quickly, should he and Stella suffer the same fate of the poor I'Cie kid that had died. And Noctis didn't plan on he - or even Stella, given the principle and the way he felt about her from their first meeting - dying just yet.
He wasn't about to have the guilt and blood on his hands, and in this shallow water, of Stella's collection of weapons adding to his. Breathing deeply, it was time to use his magic. Waving his hand, first he cast a blast of Fire, a plume of Fire going straight into Alexander's face. Next, he turned to Stella and yelled "Jump!", as he cast Thunder into the feet of the eidolon, the shallow water they were all standing in capable of shocking them as well with the bolt of electricity that zapped from the heavens. The surge jolted the eidolon as it was distracted, Noctis landing back a few feet and preparing himself for battle again. It was going to take a long time to wear down this Eidolon, and he felt his strength returning.... but he didn't have much time left as he felt Stella's presence behind him.

The fight against the Eidolon was taking longer then expected. Both of them were getting tired at each passing second and the divine beast showed no signs of getting weaker or even slowing down. Stella felt her heart beat faster as she rose a hand to rest upon her chest. Her blonde hair was covering her face partially but she could still see the golden giant in front of her. Noctis was doing the best he could at fighting that thing. Stella was giving him support. That was the least she could do, until this very moment. Both of them were throwing everything they could against the guardian selected by Etro and still… that didn’t look like enough.
Stella covered her face with both arms when she thought that she was going to be hit. Luckily for her, the prince managed to save her from an impact that would surely knock her out cold. How? How could Etro summon such thing to fight them both? Weren’t they Her warriors too? They could see the Light that came from her Kingdom. Both Stella and Noctis survived nearly death experiences and came back with her gift. Now, why were they fighting against one of her Guardians? Was this a test to prove their loyalty to her cause? The princess was loyal. Everything she did was to honour Etro, the Goddess of Death. Why would she attack them like this? Didn’t make any sense.
Her purple eyes were focused on Noctis. His resolve. Determination. He had matured since the last time they met in his Kingdom. That was the last time they talked. And fought. He had saved her life against this monster… and she healed him when he needed. Was there still a chance for them to find a solution to their conflict? Stella hold onto her Rapier hard as she saw Noctis cast Fire against the Eidolon. “I will protect him. No matter the cost.” Stella thought to herself as she stood up, looking at the prince. “I have searched for you in many different worlds and I’m not dying until we talk about what happened to us.”[/i] Then, she heard his order. He told her to jump. Stella used her “Telekinesis” to send her Rapier fly high in the sky until the sword was high in the air. With a smile, the princess of Tenebrae teleported herself next to her Rapier, right before Noctis spell hit the massive warrior with a bonus damage due to the water. Stella took a hold of her rapier and pointed the blade down, targeting the top of the golden guardian’s head. She wasn’t going down without a fight. Not this time, when Noctis was next to her. Not when he was watching her. As soon as the electricity dissipated, Stella struck the top of Alexander’s head with her rapier with all the strength she managed to get. “I’m not losing. Even if you’re a warrior sent by Etro….” The princess started to slash the metallic crown around the eidolon’s head with a silent fury burning in her purple eyes “I’m not dying! Not here! Not now!”[/size] ------------------- Telekinesis:With little effort, Stella can summon her weapons out of thin air with magical power, and materialize them anywhere in the free space of the battlefield. They hover within the air and are almost transparent if one doesn't look hard enough, and she can't materialize them into people or objects, so she needs to grab them out of the air and throw them in order to move them around to make offensive/defensive use of them in combat for the most part. She can also use her telekinesis to rotate them in the air, both to set a almost invisible trap in a switchblade-motion, or to orbit around her body.She can summon one weapon at once, which she always chooses her main weapon, the Rapier as her weapon of choice along with any additional weapons. Even then, she may only use a few at a time, leaving others as back-up for projectiles or to act as a defense. (Cooldown: 1) Teleport:Used in conjunction with her Telekinesis, she can teleport to any weapon on the field she has moved with her telekinesis, and use that weapon swiftly. She can then teleport again once having used that weapon or the power of that weapon, and only after someone has interrupted her can she teleport again. (Cooldown: 2 posts) Cure - Ready to use

The colossal Eidolon was inflicted double damage due to Noctis' Thunder in the shallow water it was standing in, giving the big guy a nasty shock, turning to Noctis slowly. It then used Blast Punch at Noctis while he was far away, then was struck by Stella's rapier from above in a powerful stroke of metal against metal. It bended over and gave her the attack Steelcrusher in turn, repeating the cycle again. It was showing a clearly distinct pattern in it's fighting style.
Noctis was too busy to notice this, however, as Blast Punch socked into him, exploding and sending him slamming backwards through the shallow water. Getting slightly wet from all the moisture now he was no longer on his feet and now a bit battle damaged from explosion burns and bruises, he pulled himself to his feet as he grunted, pain aching through his body. He ignored it and watched as Alexander attacked Stella. "Heads up!" he warned. He was going to have to do something to speed up this battle, as he felt his life force getting weaker and weaker from the Doom spell. Trusting Stella to look after herself, as she clearly had shown in her battle against him, Noctis summoned his current weapon away and re-summoned his default Falchion into his hand, throwing it towards the Eidolon.
As it landed embedded in the moistened earth beneath the water, Noctis had used Teleportation to travel and appear next to it, slashing upwards powerfully into the Eidolon's torso. Next he summoned his horn-shaped lance into his hand and threw it up above the holy fortress, teleporting one more time as it dug into Alexander's shoulder, pulling it out in mid-air and spinning horizontally to pierce into the joints in it's leg. Not nearly finished, his hair flashed from black to blue and his eyes from the latter color to red as he activated Master of Weapons once more. He summoned all his weapons behind him, grabbing them one at a time and performing a long combo chain, before finally summoning Falchion to his hands and pointing it downward as he impaled Alexander's chest once more. He landed and flipped backwards, his hair returning back to normal, looking to Stella to see if she had dodged the summon's mighty blow.
(OOC: Sorry Stella... since I first got into FFXIII and because of recent events, my muse, it's dead. RIP muse.)

Stella kept attacking the head of Alexander like a woman possessed. Strike after strike, she danced and slashed the giant’s head with her rapier in an elegant dance. No way she would allow Noctis to fall to such thing, even if he was sent by Etro. No. Not Noctis. She had attacked him before, picking her family over her heart. If the Goddess had some kind of plan for both of them since they both saw her “Light”, that plan wouldn’t involve getting them killed by a giant golden warrior. This was a test. A test for them to prove themselves to her. To see if they were worthy of her blessing. It’s got to be it.
As soon as Alexander bend over, Stella smiled, thinking that her blows actually did major damage on the giant. But her smile quickly disappeared from her face as she saw the gigantic fist of Alexander targeting her with Steelcrusher. The princess had no time to rise a protective barrier, not even time to try and block the mighty attack. She screamed in pain as she was violently thrown off his head, flying in the air, due to the immense strength of it. Stella had no chance to defend something like that. Not at such close range anyway.
Before she hit the floor, she gazed upon the dark clouds above her head, remembering her fight with Noctis in that fatidic night. Why did she do that? She acted as cold as an assassin, completely shutting off her feelings for the prince as she withdrew her rapier. Maybe… Maybe perish in such place was her destiny. Her way to repent for that error. For that betrayal. Stella’s body hit the floor hard and the girl screamed in pain. She could feel the water underneath her, leaving her clothes, hair and face wet. Stella closed her eyes and tried to suppress a scream of pain. Her whole body was in pain from that strike.
Stella tried to stand up, feeling her strength leave her body rather quickly. Her arms were shaking and so was her body. Her wet hair covered her face, but even so she managed to see Noctis give his all against Alexander. He was still fighting. Fighting for him… and for her. He protected her before. He saved her… She needed to save him too. The Princess of Tenebrae would not allow a gigantic monster, even a divine one, kill the man she cared about. And so she stood up. Her hair covering her face as Stella summoned all her strength to stay up and ignore the pain and shaking reflexes of her body. She…. Had to save Noctis.
She grabbed her Rapier that was laying close to her and quickly changed her weapon of choice to a Gladius. The huge sword with a gold handle and silvery blade, with inscriptions on it. Her pride and joy. And she would use that sword to bring Alexander down in order to save her Prince. No matter the cost. “Hey… Sent by Etro or not…” Stella said, raising her left hand that started to emit a red glow “I will not fall down to you.” And thus, Stella cast “Fire” against the legs of the mighty warrior, before grabbing her Gladius and run towards him.
If Noctis was striking from above, she would hit the lower part and bring that giant down. Her whole body was aching and Stella felt the urge to give up and drop her sword right there. She could feel her energies abandoning her. But still… she owned that to Noctis. It was her honour that gave her a reason to run. It was her desire to see Noctis well that gave Stella the power swirl around herself, before hitting with her sword once in each leg of the Eidolon while Noctis attacked him from above. Two powerful blows was all she could do.
She barely had any energy left to continue this fight after getting hit so close by Steelcrusher. “May Etro be with us…”[/i][/size] -------- Telekinesis - Ready to use Teleport - One turn cooldown left Fire - One turn cooldown

She had not. Noctis watched as Stella was blown backwards, his heart suddenly wrenching in his chest at the sight, not liking to see her like this. He considered sending a Cure Potion her way; but suddenly Alexander bucked and groaned a inhuman echo, slumping over slightly as if weakened. Stella's attacks must have began to wear it down, as well as his own, and Noctis changed his mind. There would be plenty of time to heal her after the battle, and it was clear if he struck hard and fast now the Eidolon showed weakness, that a reprieve would come soon. He pulled himself together, and focused on the Eidolon.
Soaring Uppercut came next, this time headed for Stella while she was down, but Noctis stepped in front of her and took the hit instead. Next came Blast Punch, also aimed at Noctis while he was still the highest threat, the two attacks and the strengthening Doom spell taking their toll on him. Large burn marks and the sleeves torn at the edges of his clothing, Noctis was sent spiralling back into one of the ruins of white buildings into the area, grunting in pain as severe ache went up his spine from the impact. Despite all this, his blue hair and his red eyes continued on even after his limit break had ended, and the Light of the Night Sky was not giving up just yet. If he did, he might as well have died right there and then, and from the state of it he looked like he would have too and crystallized as the boy did that was meant to be the summoner of this giant.
So then came Noctis' final move in this battle, but still reserving his strength and powers in case he was wrong. He thrust a hand forth along with wisps of light following it, his handcannon appearing next to Alexander's head with Telekinesis. Next he cast Thunder again, hoping to stagger the Tactical Commander. It was being sapped of strength, but the mechanical creature... it just kept coming. It looked like it was on it's last legs, literally speaking... it looked like it would be up to Stella, if not himself, to finish the powerful summoned deity.
