Path to Inevitability (Open Battle)

[❖ĦλνØ₡❖]

((Wow, I had not even noticed that two other people, besides Grace, had posted. How ignorant of me, sorry guys!!))

To be honest, Odin did not care for his opponents way of reasoning, and quite frankly started to not like him instantly. He was babbling on about the boy to his left being trash, and that he thought that he was cowardly. Surely, this entity before him did not understand the fear he spoke of, the fear of dying, a fear that every being should have, lest they want tho die faster. He knew, as a warrior himself, from one look at his friend that he was more cautious then cowardly, more calculating then sporadic. He would be a good companion Odin though, and the very fact that this superfluous man before him was defaming him was nothing short of sickening to Odin.
He then noticed while this was going on that the man in the strangely patterned jacket stood by this mans side. He did not seem like an evil man at first site, but in this fight he was the variable, Odin would have to keep a keen eye on him.
Then as all these thoughts were racing through his mind, Odin resolved that he would only attack Danvaiell, and he would keep his guard up in case the man in the coat decided to attack him as well. Not a fairly complex plan, but Odin was more about actions then thoughts really.
Next, Danvaiell pointed his sword toward the heavens, and Odin knew something bad was coming his way so he crouched down, still pointing his katana at the man as he thrust his sword into the ground. Suddenly the ground started to shake with the ferocity of a wild animal, and then it came. Vertical waves of burning energy coming at speeds unheard of, searing everything that got in it's way, as Odin examining every detail in a nanosecond. He then moved wit his god-like speed, and landed on top of a building adjacent to the two enemies he had so suddenly made.
He then looked at his opponent with a look of anger on his face as he said; "Maybe you misunderstood me before, I wasn't calling you a god you presumptuous infant, no far from it. I was just commenting on how condescending you were, I thought it were more obvious. Also..........................I'M NOT A DRUNK, I don't drink for that reason, that'd be pointless. Regardless though, if that's the best you can do, this really is going to be a drag."

He then proceeded to drink more of the Soju, but this time with a face of loathing for his opponent, a man who so reminded him of that man, that evil man. When he was done taking a sip of his drink, he breathed in deep through his nose, and then opened his mouth. Out of his throat came a maelstrom of white and golden flame that instantly erupted and shot toward the two men he called his enemies. He then let out a scream of joy as he flew into the maelstrom, blade in hand, bending the fire around him so his cloths would not be singed. He was coming at Danvaiell in one of the many streams of fire that was bombarding him as he screamed; "COME ON!!!" in an enthusiastic voice that you could only slightly hear over the roaring fire that was now splitting into many streams as to attack both Danvaiell and Satoru.

This was just the way Odin liked to battle, however seldom rare it was for him to actually enjoy it. He liked the unpredictability, the heat of combat, the rush of dodging an opponents blows. When he really stood back and took it all in, he actually really liked fighting.

[Smoofy]

Zack eyed his fingers as these three quarrelled. He was then called a coward. His face drew a slight frown, that wasn't very nice. He didn't like this person already. First he called Zack trash and now he called him a coward? Rediculous! He stepped back slightly, still looking at his fingers, they were a little bit grubby, he'd need to get them cleaned. Not only this but the cloaked person phased right through his dagger, that was problomatic. He leant back, putting weight on his tail, when the earth began to shake, violently.

Waiting for something to happen, Zack saw the burst of energy erupt from the ground. His heightened Genome senses and reactions allowed him to dodge the right, in front of the building his new ally was on.

"I'm not a coward, nor trash. I found everyone's seriousness tampering with my good vibe. Lighten up will you? I'm like the only colorful person here!" he said, giving a wide smile. Fire erupted over his head, now was a quick time to act. Attaching the last two blades together, so the two identical blades matched eachother, he threw his new pinwheel weapon at them with one hand, hopefully striking them, while raising his other arm. This was more of a distraction than anything else, for the upcoming attack.

Meo Twister! He thought to himself.

Beams of energy would erupt from above them, which, should they connect, sending them flying straight into Odin's stream of fire, and into his blade.

[King Wolfe]

Lifting his leg up he quickly kicked down sending out a large white blade-like projectile from his leg. "Rankyaku.." He chanted silently as the blade knocked off the projectile Zack send out of course and straight into the group.

Then using his Rinnegan he was able to detect another projectile from the heaven's above descending towards them. Raising his hand towards the beams he braced himself, "Shinra tensei!" A large black beam was emitted from his hand connecting with the beams from above creating a large explosion.

Turning beside him he was greeted by a large stream of flames. Using Tekkai meimei the flames phased right through him, very ineffective.

Turning towards Zack, keeping his indifferent expression up, he bowed his head in respect. "Excuse me for your troubles.." Using both of his hands he created a number of hand signs and lightning speeds. Then using a final hand sign, which had his two index fingers pointed upwards, two puffs of smoke appeared beside him, "Summoning Technique."

When the smoke cleared two new figures appeared. An extremely tall and rather muscular man, and another semi-tall man with long hair that covers his right eye. They were called the Naraka path, and the Animal path.

Though these two were different they had striking similar features. Both of them wore the same headband as Satoru, both of them had his pitch black hair, and both of them had the same eyes as him.

[Grace Falls]

Danvaiell chuckled as his opponents attempted to land their attacks at him. The stream of blazing fire merely passed around him as Glyffang unraveled the forces that made fire what it is. Nearing his body, the flames disappeared as it ceased to exist. With a flick of his finger, the beams too, were also degenerated into nothing. The essences of what made their attacks alive were still present, and as Gylffeurn began to spin rapidly, the imprints of their attacks all swirled into his hands forming an orb of dazzling white and red. The brightness of this orb can hinder the sights of his opponents, but never will it affect Satoru, as flashes of light flickered in all directions.

Holding out his hand, the orb was aimed at Zack, and with a sharp thrust, the orb ripped through the air at unimaginable speeds. Almost at instant speeds, the orb was already above Zack's head, and with a snap of his finger from his other that followed right after, the orb exploded as torrents of fire would consume Zack's body and simultaneously, bolts of small lightning would electrocute him. Seeing how Zack had heightened senses, this shouldn't be extremely difficult, but it would still be difficult to escape this blast unscathed.

Danvaiell's sword transformed back into its original sphere like structure. With a wave of his hand, a reflection of his body appeared at his side, completing its creation. This clone per say is essentially of him. Glaring at Odin who was currently charging right at him, he released several psionic blasts that would cripple him, some would even break his mind caught in the buffet. Both of Danvaiells jumped several meters back and the reflected clone placed his hand on the ground. The ground shook once more as the earth began to rip, forming a circle around the two bodies. This area then rose to the ground, a pillar rising from the earth and towered over his opponents.

"You're too rash Odin..." With that said, both the Danvaiells rose their right hand into the air as the rain clouds began to propagate into vast storm clouds. With a snap of his finger, a gigantic crimson thunder bolt crashed towards the ground, heading straight towards Odin...

"Also Satoru, a gift for you." A orb made out of hexagonal sides flew towards his comrade. The sphere shattered into hundreds of tiny pieces which were then immediately absorbed by the God, Animal, and Naraka Paths. "This will aid you for it will make your Chakra extremely pure, being able to deal significantly more damage and you won't use up more Chakra than you normally would on a jutsu..."

[Smoofy]

Zack frowned at these people's complete blatant disregard of his attacks. He span his pinwheel above his head, and hopped from right to left, building momentum. His tail rose, and that too, began to spin. Soon the speed was blinding, as if the pinwheel and tail weren't even moving. He floated upwards, sclaing the building, and landed next to Odin. He crouched, placing his hands on his knees, his weapon beside him. His head was bent low, obscuring his mouth from view.

"So uh, you wouldn't happen to know how to make any clones or anything would you? It's five on two. Not that I'm worried or anything, but these guys through our attack off as if it was nothing... and I can't make clones!" He said, pondering to himself. How was he supposed to be able to beat these people? They shrug off attacks as if they were nothing.

"We need to coordiante our moves, work as a pair, and somehow catch at least one of these things off guard... but with five sets of eyes, that's almost impossible..." Zidane scratched his chin, still unable to think of anything. "I don't wanna unleash Ixion... it's too early... Meo Twister didn't work... I don't anything else would too... Ugh!" Zidane was getting frustrated. These people were definetly powerful, he just needed to think of a way to distract all of them at the same time.

He reached into one of his pockets. He pulled out a small purple ball.
"This could be used as a distraction." He said, tossing the ball up, and then catching it. "You got anything?" He said. This was truly bothersome. He didn't even know why he was fighting in the first place, and all these people acted so serious and high and mighty. He rose his head, speaking loud enough for his opponents to hear.

"Hey! Why do you always act so serious? You act like you're better than everyone, as if everyone you meet is worse than dirt! You. Make. Me. Mad!" he said. He hated people like this. Like every single moment of their life was a complete misery. "Learn to lighten up! Just because you're powerful doesn't mean you have to call people trash! And cowards! Just because I don't speak in some monotonous voice doesn't mean I'm a coward! Your prejudice sickens me. The way you act, the way you address others..."

"It makes me wonder who the real trash is." He said, standing up, grabbing his weapon. He dettached the pinwheel, making two swallow blades. He looked down at the two original figures.

"And the fact you need to call up back up and make clones, it makes me wonder how powerful you really are. Are you more of a quantity over quality like people? Hmph!" He span his two swallow blades above his head, and dissapeared, leaving an after image. He ran down the wall, travelling at immense speeds, kicking up parts of the building, leaving a trail of dirt and smoke behind him. He reached the ground in only a couple of seconds, dragging his swallow blades behind him. He drove them into the ground, and vaulted over the group. Another flick of the wrist left two smoke bombs, covering the the danveills, and Pain paths in a cloud of poisonous smoke. Their view distracted, he used Solution 9. A line of explosions erupted around the group, hopefull harming all of them, he wouldn't know whether or not they hit, but he hoped they would.

Spinning in the air, he used call back, bring one swallow blade back to him, the one designed for tearing. It reappeared in his hand. As he spun, he grew closer and closer to the group. He was moving to the back of the group, where the previously made reflection of danveill had appeared. He was now on his side, the swallow blade deattached into two daggers, one on each side. As he span, he would attempt a slice right through the middle of the reflections head. Upon landing, he would be crouched, and then flip back through the air, and land on the building opposite.

His face was contorted in anger, frustration at these annoying people. He would make them lighten up or kill them. Whatever came first.

[King Wolfe]

Satoru and both of the paths quietly nodded in approval to Danvaiell. He surely was a blessing. Then all three of them averted their gazes to Zack, Hm. He is rather touchy wouldn't you say.. Then the Animal path grinned and nodded in agreement. As quickly as this man spoke he disappeared and suddenly a cloud of smoke covered them, using tekkei meimei all three of them were intangible and the line of explosions as well as the poison were ineffective.

Using his Rinnegan he quickly found him, atop another building. "You know.. You are rather hyperactive and obnoxious, I worry for you. Also; Naraka and Animal path aren't clones, per se, more of.. An insurance policy." As he spoke Animal path used soru and finished, "Cool huh?", Placed his hand six feet from Zack's back he shot out an amazing sphere of energy, an Impact cannon. This sphere is merely repelled air that is compressed into a small shock wave, it cannot be absorbed or deflected, and in this distance evading it will be nothing short of a miracle.

Naraka path and Satoru, using soru, ended up several feet opposite of Zack. Both of them with their hands formed hand signs at blinding speeds, "Water Release: Water Bullet Techinque!", and instanteously a large sphere of water appeared beside Naraka path, and that sphere shot out a large projectile of water at Zack. "Lightning Release: Electric Burst Techinque", and a large bolt of lightning was struck down from the heavens towards Zack.

[Smoofy]

"Hyper active and obnoxious? I'm normal compared to you!" he said.

His jaw slacked as one of the ninja dissapeared. Quickly composing himself, his Genome senses kicked in. A symbol formed behind him at blinding speed, and exploded. He did not know the location of the ninja, but from where it was, it would become harmed should it not move. He was launched vertically into the air, spinning and twirling, out of the way of the bullet of air. He stopped for a moment, hanging in midair, regulating his speed thanks to his ability to manipulate the air around him. It wouldn't hold for long, but it would suffice for now. He had to mvoe quickly to stop these two things, and in the air like this he was vulnerable to danvaiell, his reflection and the original Satoru. He grimaced slightly, wondering what to do, but he didn't have long to think, a large bullet of water streamed towards him, and behind, a beam of electricity.

Acting quickly, he joined his two daggers into a swallow blade. He pushed his arms forward, and an explosion erupted around him, just in time to blow up the ball of water, the water washing over him, cooling him down. He increased his body heat momentarily, evaporating the water, and returned back to normal temperature. Now for the bolt of lightning. He used air pulse, launching himself slightly skywards, he didn't have much momentum, and one of his daggers got caught by the bolt. He cursed quietly to himself, and had to take a moment to use Callback to bring it back safely into his grip.

Acting on impulse, he had to get away from this vulnerable position. He teleported a short distance, but not far enough to land on the building Odin was on, opposite of the Naraka and Animal paths. So he had to use air pulse. He fell momentarily, picking up speed, then reversed the momentum, propelling him towards the building. He landed softly next to Odin. That ability to become transparent annoyed him greatly, he would have to find a way to stop it, or hinder it somehow.

Judging by the way he fought so far, Satoru relies greatly on his other paths, leaving himself out of the fray. So instead of wasting his time with the Naraka and Animal path, he should attack the God path, but he coudn't go head on, otherwise Danveiall and Satoru would strike him down easily. They had a good defense, and it was up to Zack and Odin to knock it down. He knelt down, using Callback to retrieve his other Swallow blade. They rested on either side, and he scratched his chin. He shouldn't attack anymore, he should wait for them to attack, go on the defensive, and strike when he found an opening, study their movements, how they fight, this would be how Zack would win.

[King Wolfe]

Animal path used a multitude of hand signs at impressive speeds. Then as he was finished a large puff of smoke appeared in front of him, and when it cleared a large brown dog with the same Rinnegan appeared in front of him. Satoru and Naraka used soru to appear several feet from Zack and both kicked off a large number of rankyaku blades at him, and at the same time the large dog reached down a launched his massive head at him. Satoru grimacing at this man's tactics felt slightly annoyed, Zack fought conservatively and his earlier comment annoyed him as well.

Contrary to Zack's thoughts Satoru was not in fact using clones to fight for him, the Six paths of Inevitability was the use of reincarnated corpses, they all had their own special abilities and with Satoru's original abilities. A perfect defense, and offense. The paths kept an eye on each other and protected each other while attacked with more teamwork than ANBU.

((Sorry I did not post for such a long time, as I was studying for the SAT's day and night, and I could not find time to do so. Now though, I will finally come to your aide Smoofy and do something, go figure!!!))


Odin was taken aback by the power that his opponents did have. The man in the cloak had dodged his sporadic attack as if it were second nature, and the man before him had not only took control of his flames but he redirected at his alley who had thankfully dodged the attack with relative. The whole idea that he was weak, and that his attacks were hurting the one he called his companion was more then frustrating to him, it was simply enraging. It only added to his rage when he got hit by Danivellle's psionic blast and was slightly crippled in his left leg, his hand with the sword in it now seemed heavier then before. When his opponent landed next to him and started to converse with him it all started to boil inside of him. His companion needed his aide, he needed Odin to unleash his true powers upon these mortals, but he knew his anger would get in the way, like always.

Just as his opponent was about to leave to start his next barrage of attacks Odin muttered under his breath to him; "Do not worry, I will do my best to send these self-righteous fools off to the gods!!!"
He then stood up to see that Danvaiell was conjuring up some wicked magic to send the way of Odin, and he was right to assume this, for immediately after the clone and he snapped their fingers a grand scarlet bolt of lightning came down upon odin. Instantly when he saw this he put up his right arm with a look of anger and hatred incarnate in only the god of war. The red bolt of thunder was going to hit him but, as if it were instinctual, Odin manipulated the heat in the bolt of lightning and, as he clutched it in his now bleeding hand whilst screaming like a madman, he forced it back towards Danvaiell ten-fold, for inside of the bolt was an explosive core that could rip the town apart.

He then drew his second blade and coursed such incredible heart through his keepsakes that they shined with a gleaming white color, becoming enveloped in such heat that these two katanas could cut through solid steel like a hot knife through butter. He then immediately pointed his arm at the projectiles that were sent at Zack by the Path's, and brought forth such instantaneous heat that they disappeared into a cloud of ash, but folded it around Zack so that he was not even slightly touched by the burning power.

He then used his incredible speed to materialize in front of Zack as the third path came at him with the same tremendous speed as himself, and he caught it's head with his super-heated blades, blades which began to seep into the creatures skull. Odin quickly pulled the blades out of the creatures head as it was flailing around in pain, and pushed it backward, causing it to fall in agony and leave a permanent cross-shaped scar on it's forehead.

"Perhaps I was not clear, have I not already told you that no harm shall come to this boy?!?!?! Now, I will also send you to the gods as well Satoru!" Odin said as his eyes began to gain a golden hue to them, indicating that his "darker side" was coming forth. He then instantly went from the rooftop to the location where Satoru was in an instant with his God-Speed, swords drawn, and he slashed for either arm with unimaginably fast slashes, for Odin had noticed that this man, as well as his path's, needed to do hand symbols to do the things they did. So what if your hands were unusable or if you no longer had hands at all? That was Odin's intention, to cut his arms with his super-heated blades so that he would be useless, or so he would hope.

[Grace Falls]

Danvaiell just snickered at Odin's attempt to harm him. Now that he knew this opponent can control fire and its natural properties, dealing any forms of attacks that deal with fire will be totally useless. The lightning bolt that radiated its extremely intense heat scorched all that was around it. The ascended Varian held out his hands to stop the scarlet bolt, shattering its existence into nothing. Sparks and tongues of fire spewed all about, gently flowing in the air, rising slowly into the sky. While escalating highly, they propagated in size resembling large meteors or such. The clouds above began to darken, and likewise grew too, which was preparation for later uses.

"Don't even try using my own attacks against me. It just won't work like that..." With a chuckle, one of the Danvaiell floated towards the ground, stepping off the pillar of rock that towered over the area. The reflection pointed at Satoru and Gylffeurn instantly appeared above him. The weapon emitted its vibrations and thick waves of blue spiraled in between his comrade and Odin. Gylffeurn combined the air, reinforcing friction of the air, making it difficult for Odin's blade to reach either of Satoru's arms. Also from the pointed finger, Danvaiell used his psychokinetic abilities to influence Satoru's pull of gravity, pulling him swiftly away from Odin's reach, just in case anything were to happen.

The original and real Danvaiell that stood on top of the pillar just stared intently. The one on the ground vaporized into nothing as if it were an illusion. Glyffang that was behind him materialized once more into a sword and placed itself into his hands. He closed his eyes and raised the sword into the air for probably the third time. The sword shined brilliantly and the light shot towards the sky, piercing the clouds and forming space up above. Thunder roared from the sky and flashes of lightning flew across. The clouds swirled towards a center location that was exactly above Danvaiell. The light disappeared slowly and a colossal blue lightning bolt was aimed at Zack and Odin. This lightning bolt held no characteristics of a mediocre bolt, having no source of heat or such. This bolt was clearly one that was made out of Danvaiell's imagination. It held no attacking element that was known to man, for it held no such thing. This attack will simply annihilate those who will be struck by its mighty power. The speed of this attack was almost as fast as light itself. With this, it created a piercing sound that will disrupt the mind, but won't deafen them. Dodging this attack or defending from it will prove to be extremely difficult. Even this took some strength out of Danvaiell.
