The pathetic attempt at survival did not go unnoticed. Even though their attempts so far had been futile, the Ice Titan was not going to allow any of them the upper hand. While another flyer made herself known by helping to defend against his attack, it ultimately proved to be a foolish endeavor. Her wolf creature, however, was still on the warpath. It latched on to his arm. Being made of ice, however, the Titan didn't feel the bite and broke off his arm, flinging the creature aside. His arm quickly reformed in the ice and the Titan used both arms to create a wave of energy the froze the entire arena.
Everything was encased in ice, except for the combantants. The now slick surface, however, would ruin everyone's footing, including the little creature that was attacking his leg. The electrical energy ran up his leg to his core, but did very little to him. Instead, he walked forward again, leaving the leg the creature was attacking behind. He was ready to see how the fighters handled the frozen arena. A deep chill was left in the arena as well, ready to seep into the fighters' lungs and to make even breathing difficult.

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,480px,true][atrb=cellpadding,3px,true][atrb=cellspacing,3px,true][bg=939d8f] I can't remind your eyes,
Your face A hemisphere of translucent light covered around Sora, and the young boy grinned cheerfully as he yelled a "Thanks!" to the taller crystal man with the one wing. The ice titan was still using it's ice breath on the dragon boy's fire wall, and the Key That Connected to Everyone kept strafing around the shield to stay on the move as he watched Hydros intensify the cold, washed with harsh chilling breath that was so cold it burned upon his skin like fire. Then the breath suddenly stopped, as a Red Meteor that Mushu had shot earlier from above knocked into the titan's head to force it to aim towards the ground, and more showered down upon the Titan forcing it to defend itself as Sora continued to move to take advantage of it. Artemis next put up a shield to try to help the drake kid defend, but Sora could only see trying to stay in one place to defend against one attack was not going to work for long as the icicles would follow them no matter if they were behind a shield, and he knew it wouldn't last long as the titan surprisingly and violently threw the remainder of it's legs. Since the ice breath had already hit him from his position from the side of the shield, the target of the throw was Artemis' vine-like shield, so Sora managed to avoid damage from the small feet in comparison to the large coliseum. The wolf appeared and viciously attacked an arm, and Sora watched with dismay when the girl with the brown hair and what looked like Xemnas' aerial sabers as weapons attacked the Ice Titan from behind his leg, then as Ice Titan shook them both off with ease. Hadn't she listened to him that the Ice Titan's head was the vulnerable part? He wasn't even sure what the wolf was made of as Artemis had summoned it and if it was capable of taking direction from anything other than it's master, but they would have to figure out a plan to take down this gargantuan creature and fast. For now the abomimible iceman had used a new attack which sent out shockwaves which seemed to only effect freezing the entire floor of the arena into a massive ice rink, the air also now Sora was finding hard to breathe like he was out in Christmas Town during a blizzard, turning the coliseum into a frozen winter wonderfield. Speaking of Blizzard, that spell was going to be ineffective, as would Thunder, his Wisdom Form even if he changed into it now wasn't going to recharge Firaga quickly enough for him to use. It was clear as an icecube, as much as Sora was cool-headed in this humidity, that unless they did something about the battle arena they were all going to be KO'ed quickly from severe cases of hypothemic ventilation. Sora had a sudden flashback to the memory of Akemi's fireball and the ice breath colliding, creating steam, but Sora also remembered the humidity rise despite the warmth of Mushu's fireballs being shot from the top of his head. That was the solution, and the energy around Sora's body intensified, suddenly shattering off his body like thick ice as his magical clothes changed. He was now in his colorful original clothes of Limit Form, he was careful to run up to the Ice Titan when he had finished his shockwave and he was not attacking, taking advantage of the fact he had been distracted earlier as he leapt in the air to bravely perform keyblade combos against it's head. This was only the opening combo of his Limit Form's ability Ragnarok, the shotlock-like attack shooting off lasers of light in four bursts, except the first and second burst wasn't aimed at Ice Titan. Being light and composed of heat, he aimed the searing lasers at the ground, as each of the fifteen lasers in the first bursts snaked across the floor of the arena to attempt to melt the ice and send up more steam before the last two rounds added to it by aiming at the ice of the giant icicle's face. The light lasers, whether they would be possible as one of Sora's only heated attacks to melt the ice or not, reflected beautifully across the surface of the glimmering and reflecting ice in a dazzling light show that made the audience gasp and cheer even louder. When Sora landed, he stepped on a patch of ice and comically slipped up to fall on the only part of his body with built-in air bags, grateful for the fact the traveling icicles had stopped. Because of this fact, Sora yelled "Guys, keep aiming at his head, and if someone can lift me up into the air, I'll start setting him up while you guys knock him down!", before getting on his feet and quickly using Strike Raid to throw the Kingdom Key at Ice Titan's head, in hopes that the combined ranged barrage from both attacks would be a distraction to force the frost monster to stay still from the finisher Judgment long enough for the other warriors to finish him. --- Boss Theme: The Deep EndFiraga: One post cooldown. Aerial Finish - Cooldown: Two posts. Firecracker Charm: Two post cooldown. |
[/blockquote] Limit Form: This is the only form Sora can use on his own, and the only one he starts out with. Sora only wields one keyblade, but re-obtains through his lost memories and the events of Castle Oblivion the abilities he had prior to these events. A more physical drive form, and having reached keyblader master status, the execution of some of these abilites can enable Sora to be invincible for brief moments during combat (within reason rationally when he's about to recieve critical hits). However, the drawback to this form is that he cannot use any magic spells, and for the abilities of his to work he has to be of certain distance between himself and the target, depending on the ability. In this drive form, his clothes change their color to the appearence of his old clothes (from KH1), with a black hooded vest, white sleeves, red pants and yellow shoes. Three post cooldown. Ragnarok: Short aerial combo leading to four light laser bursts, each with fifteen lasers in each burst. Used only once per Limit Form. Strike Raid: Throw the Keyblade up to five times. The finisher is called Judgment. Used only once per Limit Form. [/div] TAG Cid Raines, Ice Titan, Selena, Night, Shelke, Akemi.

Cid gave Sora a nod of acknowledgement when Cid gave him a buffing spell. Since Sora seemed to be the main attacker of the group, it was right that he had this protection cast upon him. It was then that Artemis, the one with black wings had come down beside the one that has set the fire shield and had set up a shield of vines behind the fire shield being made. It was a well-made defensive maneuver...should the fire shield and the Ice Titan attacks cancel each other and the fire shield leaves...they would still have the shield that Artemis had created. However...things took a turn for the worst. The Ice monster had thrown two gigantic pieces of ice, breaking the shields and as a result, did away with Night and Akemi. Cid was hurt just as well, having been blown back by the huge attack.
The young girl, whom Cid did not see for some part of the batle had reappeared again. She went to work on the Ice monster's leg but that wasn't a good decision. It was then that maybe she might have been acting as someone that would try and draw the Ice Titan's attacks toward her. It was then that Sora went on the attack. He summoned some type of power that changed his clothing and then he proceeded to attack using beams of light. This young man was certainly talented. He would be more than a worthy opponent for anyone that faces him in this tournament. Although, he was not the most graceful fighter as Cid could barely keep from throwing his palm into his face when Sora slipped and fell due to the Ice Titan using an attack to turn the whole inside arena into an ice field. Sora then called for everyone to attack the head. Sora also suggested that someone take him to the air. Cid had other plans, though. He planned on finishing this monster on his own, but he might have to take one for the team. He would soon figure it out as he made his second and final transformation. Cid Raines activated his Metamorphose ability, in which Cid hugged himself and began to scream out in anguish and sprouted eight sharp, terrifying, demonic, and illuminating wings from his back. Four wings will be on the left side of his back and four other wings will be on the right side of his back.
Now with the ability to fly, Cid looked to Sora, Artemis, and Shelke and spoke out to them for the first time since this battle has started.
"Right...I will fly up to his head and unleash my attack to knock him off balance! Artemis, if you would help Sora and Shelke in a joint attack, that would definitely knock it off balance."
It was here that Cid start the beginning of the end of this whole fight. Cid flew up and with reckless disregard...decided to use his eight wings to attempt to distract and attack the Ice Titan. Cid flew in at high speed toward the Ice Titan's head and attempted to spin horizontally toward the monster's head with incredible speed, giving his wings a sawing effect and therefore slashing his opponent with his wings given the fact that his wings are hard and sharp and the fact that he had been spinning at an incredible speed toward and onto his opponent. He would hope that this will open things up for his teammates.
Powers used:
Cie'th Human Hybrid: This transformation does not increase Cid’s power overall for this is the form that he uses to fight, it is his first line of offense and defense so to speak. However, he is still able to keep his human mind; he does not lose his head or his humanity when he make this first transformation. This form is one of two transformations, however… ((Once activated, this first form stays until the end of the thread as this power is Cid’s first line of offense and defense, this form stays until the end of the thread in which he transformed.))
Cure: Cid, by using this magic, is able to heal himself and his injures to a small extent. ((Ready for use)) ((Cast upon Night to heal him))
Shell: Cid is able to cast this spell on himself or any of his allies and if it is cast successfully, then the damage caused by magic attacks will be cut in half. ((2 posts left on duration; 1 post left for cooldown)) ((Cast upon Sora))
Metamorphose: With this terrifying and haunting transformation, Cid’s strength, speed, magic, and defensive abilities get even stronger; his power increases to frightening levels and he even gains the ability to fly. Cid even becomes more feral and even more vicious and aggressive when he transforms into this form but he still has his human mind about him. Of course, he can only activate this transformation and he can only stay in this form for a while only. ((6 post duration; 6 post cooldown))

Sora decided he was going to be flashy. His lasers did melt the ice somewhat, letting loose even more steam. The Ice Titan couldn't see that Sora was continuing his attack against the great beast until after the beams struck him. He roared and defended himself against the Keyblade that was thrown at him. Another one began to attack him.
Suddenly, everything stopped. Time stood still and no one could move. Then the Ice Titan became a ball of energy again and returned to Hades. The Lord of the Dead stood and applauded the combatants. He was very impressed with the battle and was ready to speak to all involved. -Hades' post will be next. Thanks for a great Prelim. I'll be setting up a bracket for the next rounds in a couple days.-

The Lord of the Dead stood and applauded the combatants. He was quite impressed with how this battle turned out. "Now THAT is how you start a tournament, huh? Chaos and mayhem abound! Now we're going to keep things moving. In one hour's time, the names of those advancing will be posted in the waiting areas. This will include all four divisions and will show the Top Sixteen warriors!"
Cheers raised from the remaining crowd of the ruined stadium. Hades looked around and chuckled, saying, "Oh, and don't worry about the arena. You'll find it fully restored when the next round starts. Now then, first thing's first!" Hades twirled his arms a couple times and removed all the damage to the battlefield, leaving it torn and destroyed, but free from any hindrance. This way the combatants could leave the field safely. He spoke again, "For now, head back to the waiting area and take healthy swigs of the healing waters I've provided. Well, unless you want to go into round two weakened. Hey, that's your thing. The next round will start in two hours! I suggest you rest up and prepare. Until then!" The Lord of the Dead disappeared in a burst of flames and the gates opened to the waiting area, a few soldiers running toward the combatants to carry the wounded back to the healing waters.
-Thanks for the amazing round, everyone! I'll be posting the tournament bracket up shortly, so prepare yourselves. Round Two will start on Saturday and will run for two weeks. You will have time to contact your opponent and formulate a plan if you'd like, but one condition of the next rounds is they have to be as amazingly epic as these preliminaries were.-
