Round Two?(PvP Jeff and Alacran)

[Jeff Franklin]

Thread Title:
Participants: Jeff and Alacran
World: Hueco Mundo
Death Setting: Non Death Enabled
Rating: R
Location: Somewhere in the white sands of the Hueco Mundo desert.
Special Conditions:
Circumstances: Because Jeff is unlucky and lucky at the same time

[Alacrán]

The giant Gillian that is now Alacrán is slowly wondering away from the edges of the Las Noches' border and reaching the first sandy dunes of the White Desert before he stops just at the point where the geography changes and stands there, staring aimlessly into the distance. At least that is what it'd look like to an outsider, however there is much more than that going on inwardly.

He raises a hand to his mask, and growls as the voices have yet to stop. They have gotten quieter since his travel with Camila into Las Noches which he imagines has to do with all the Arrancar they slayed on their way there. He can't imagine who all that might've upset but he doesn't exactly care. As he manages to suppress the noise inwardly he glances back out at the sandy landscape before him and sighs.

As much as he disliked other Hollows and Arrancar he truly did appreciate the barren white picture before him. It gave him an odd sense of belonging, peace, and comfort which he never really imagined could be possible for him. he takes a few steps forward, big ones however, and stops just at the top of the first hill and grabs a handful of the white sand and begins to rub it between his hand. 

He liked the feeling of the sand on his skin. It's coarse, rough, and soothing. And it was everywhere. And that pleased him very much to a degree he didn't understand. However this momentary tranquility for the giant Hollow will not be lasting very long as he is due to be meeting an old acquaintance, unknown to him of course.

[Jeff Franklin]

It's finally possible! Jeff has learned a way of creating his own doorway allowing him to travel to different locations, it only took month's of searching down the Saika who figured out how to use their special connection with Hell gained from Merge and Seal. After a little bit of persuasion the Saika was happy to give him the information, anything that would get Jeff as far away from him as possible. Apparently all you needed to do if you went through the Merge and Seal process was wrap your arm and hand in your Hell chain and picture on the location you wish to go. While focusing you must circle your reiatsu around the Gate seal before punching the air in front of you, this should create a small opening that you can proceed to force open and step through.



Doing everything he was told to do Jeff punches the air in front of him with his chain wrapped arm, this essentially poked a hole in the fabric of reality using the power of Hell itself. Getting excited after realizing the technique was working he starts ripping the hole open, managing to get it wide enough to step through Jeff enters it, that is when he messed up. While he was focusing the entire time on the Soul Society and his sweet little boy another place entered his mind, a place full of nothing but white sand as far as the eye could see, Heuco Mundo.



Stepping out of his portal it closes behind Jeff, Dang it, so apparently even a moment thinking about a different location will throw off the destination, at least I could try again. That is at least what he was hoping to do, the issue with that is the spot he popped into Hueco Mundo, there just happened to be a giant Gillian standing nearby playing with... sand? "Hey, what are you doing? Something special about this sand? or are you that strange?" Screaming this at the Gillian Jeff noticed something about this Hollow, the masked seemed eerily familiar.



Shifting in the spot he was standing Jeff begins messing with his mask, the stupid thing always feels as if it's about to fall off but never actually getting close to. Looking around shows that currently Jeff and this Gillian are standing in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by endless white sand dunes. With a sigh Jeff readies himself for the inevitable battle that would probably be starting soon. "Guess I might as well try out my new powers", while saying this Jeff would have a noticeable change as his hands become scaly, similar to that of a lizard even causing his nails to end in somewhat of a point. Following this change a noticeable red aura begins radiating off of him, this aura reaches ten feet in all directions around him.

{Dark Skill}Appearance- Dark Skill 1 would give him scale like skin on his hands with slightly pointed fingernails.
Dark Skill Overall- Dark Skill Overall Ability-


His Reiatsu now flows like a torrent through his body generating a 10 Foot Red aura around him, anyone inside this aura takes double any physical damage (Example. If an arm’s bone was cleanly broken it would actually shatter in that area instead). This aura is based off of Spiritual Pressure and the opponent must have at least a Spiritual Stat greater then double his OS not to be affected at all. Thanks to being in this aura any form of physical damage is doubled including environmental damage and even physical techniques (even those that use reiatsu) that cause damage to the users (The double damage does not apply to those outside of the aura unless specifically mentioned by a Dark Skill).

Dark Skill 1: Dark Skill Level 1 Property-


Thanks to his decent control over the Aura he is producing Jeff is capable of creating two solid arms that are yellow, these arms can be created anywhere on his body an have a speed of 300 and strength equal to his Spiritual Pressure. These arms have a reach of 10 feet and when destroyed in any manner can be immediately created again for 100 reiatsu. Since they are created from his special Aura and remain within it's field any damage they cause to a being is doubled (This double damage does not extend outside of the Aura as the arms themselves don't reach outside of it). Although they may be more solid than most spiritual constructs due to the special condition they are made these arms are still incapable of creating shockwaves. The durability for these arms are equal to his Spiritual Pressure.

[Alacrán]

"Hey, what are you doing? Something special about this sand? or are you that strange?" The shout draws Alacrán's attention as he whips his head to the intruder with a bit of annoyance and a growl. The growl catches in his throat however as he spots the mask, cloak, and chains which were all very familiar to him and began setting off alarms in his head, "You." He quickly becomes defensive, leaping a few steps back despite his large form suggesting he'd be slower.

He watches with dread as the Sinner's body begins to change and the aura spread out from him. Whatever that was, he knew he probably didn't want to get caught in it so as soon as the aura stopped, Alacrán raised his arms, reeling one back as a small red orb the size of watermelon formed and made a punching motion straight towards the Sinner, sending his Bala. He reels the other arm back as well but no orb forms as he just punches the air and sends a shockwave to the left of Jeff's path.

As the Sinner is busy dodging these, Alacrán sends one leg into the side of a large sand dune causing it to erupt into the air towards Jeff to obscure his vision although this would also probably obscure his own vision as well but he would just rely on his sense of hearing. He makes use of the sand by moving as quickly but quietly as he can, which is also surprisingly quite well for his large form. He just hopes that Jeff couldn't sense any of his energy, even if he wasn't using it.

He begins heading towards his right and circling around the sand that he's kicked up and bolts to where he last saw the Saika, swinging a leg right as he comes up on the spot to try and send the sinner flying. Should he actually manage to land the kick, he will then step back into an Ulcera and reappear in the trajectory path of the Sinner and charge up his larger but still somewhat weak, Cero Morder and catch him in the explosion with his mouth.

Should he actually miss the kick, due to either misjudging where Jeff is, Jeff dodging the kick in some way, or Jeff just straight up not being in the dusty cloud anymore, Alacrán will quickly spin around to relocate Jeff and try to block any incoming attacks as best as he can. All the while doing this, he listens and racks his brain and memories to see if he can recall the previous fight with this individual, if it truly was him again, to see if he can gain any insight on how to not drag this out like last time.

[Jeff Franklin]

Why does this thing seem so familiar to Jeff, it even seems to remember who Jeff himself is. With his new change complete the only thing Jeff could do to show his forgetfulness and partial curiosity was tilt his head to the left. Seriously who is this thing? He said you as if he knows who I am, so who is he?, with this predominate question traveling through his thoughts Jeff will be a sitting duck for what's about to happen next, or at least that's what it looks like.



This giant Hollow jumped back after the Jeff released clearly stating he understood what was happening. It was pretty obvious that a long range attack was about to happen, I mean the rearing back of the hand and a glowing red orb forming just screamed ranged. If this was how the fight was going to start Jeff would prefer to get a little bit closer, in fact he would prefer to have some physical contact. As soon as the Bala would begin moving towards Jeff a rush of reiatsu would be sent into one of the seals holding back a part of Jeff's soul, as the reiatsu enters the seal a doorway immediately opens up to the left of Jeff before he takes a 1500 speed step into the open portal.



There was only one place Jeff could come out of this portal, so if Alacran continued his little attack plan Jeff would walk out of the newly opened doorway that came into existence as the one Jeff entered disappeared, this new one was about five feet behind Alacran. Straining his neck to look up at the goliath Jeff pondered on what he would do next, this would seem to be answered as Alacran sent a large amount of sand up into the air as cover before he managed to quietly walk around to where Jeff would have been. With his feet still on fire due to Hell step he decides to calmly walk up into the air and follow the Hollow.



When Alacran finally discovers Jeff is no longer in the same place as he was Jeff would ask him, "So, who are you anyway, you remind me of someone but I can't quite remember who", from behind his head while placing his new constructed arms on the Gillians shoulders after coming within ten feet. Alacran would feel the grip from the constructed arms begin to get stronger the longer Jeff waits for an answer. The pain from Hell Step continues to give a sensation of burning to his feet, while the sensation of walking through a fire has finally started disappearing with the amount of time it has been since walking through the doorway.

{Hell Step}Technique Name: Unseal: Hell Step



Proficient



Class: 6



Technique Type: Hell Art



Usable By ): Saika



Technique Element: Reiatsu



Technique Description and Effects (Explain appearance, powers, and effect):

Black flame sprouts from the bottom of the user’s feet, this allows standing in the air (regardless of location as it uses Hell reiatsu) and can be used to open and use Hell portals in order to increase a single step by 15 times the users speed up to 40 feet (a portal opens where the user exits). These portals open immediately and closes instantly after the user enters/exits them.



How to use technique (How is it activated?):

Pouring Reiatsu into the Gate seal of the user’s soul which holds the portion of hell while concentrating on the effect forces Hell Reiatsu into the users feet.



Technique Drawbacks (Limitations, repercussions for use, etc)

While using this Technique the feet feel as if they are on fire and this sensation stops two personal posts after use, the user also feel as if they walk through fire every time a Hell portal is opened and stepped through. Every time this is used the amount of posts that can be outside of Hell is reduced by one and if used to stand in the air it reduces the amount of posts outside of Hell by half a post after for each post after initial activation. Must have mastered Merge and Seal. This cost 50 Reiatsu to activate (for poth Hell Portal and standing in air) and 25 Reiatsu for each additional post.



Made By: Some Random Saika



Reserved? (Yes/No) (Can others use your technique, or just your character?): No

[Alacrán]

Unfortunately for him, Alacrán doesn't catch the Saika disappearing before the Bala and shockwave explode into the sand. He doesn't even hesitate in his going for the kick towards the sand dune to actually see if they landed. So when he finds that his kick misses and Jeff is no longer there, a spike of concern rises in the back of his mind as he spins around only to be meet with the Saika ten feet away from his face. Being this close up now, he knew without a doubt that his was definitely the same person.

He tenses up as the arms set down onto his shoulder and the familiar voice ask, "So, who are you anyway, you remind me of someone but I can't quite remember who." A chill runs up his spine as he doesn't even give the Sinner more than five seconds to wait for an answer before his arm shoots up to try and swipe him away. He was somewhat relieved to hear that the sinner hadn't seemed to recognize him yet which means he had some time before he begins getting...weird again.

Whether Alacrán manages to catch him off guard with this or not doesn't matter to him as he drops to one knee and slams the ground with his fist causing more sand to erupt into the air before he pulls them back up with as much speed and force as he went down, throwing even more sand into the air and around him. He then steps into an Ulcera while still in this cloud of sand and uses the step to send himself flying towards Jeff in the unseen space at a speed of 375, reappearing in front of him with his mandibles aimed to grab and pierce him as he tries to drive Jeff into the ground.

Whether this ambush style of attack is successful or not, he'd raise himself up from the ground and step back for a moment to recollect himself and letting the poison sink in if that had managed to succeed. It's also now that he feels the sharp pain in his nerves and muscles that originates from the slightly broken armor around his shoulder, right where Jeff's arms had gripped him. This realization hits him like a rock as he whips his head back towards the Saika with renewed fear.

As he watches to see if the poison takes hold as well as trying to anticipate any moves Jeff might make, he continues to wrack his brain and memory of what had caused the visitor from Hell to return home. Then he remembers it, the moments leading up to just before the Sinner had been dragged back to hell. He had removed his mask and said something about being taken back shortly afterwards. That had to be it then right? Just remove the mask and he'll be gone. With this memory and plan in place, he stands a little more confident...although still defensive.

{Veneno del Hombre Muerto}Class: 8+
Technique Type: Hollow/Arrancar Technique [Custom]
Technique Element: Poison
Usable By: Alacrán [Reserved]

Technique Description and Effects:
Alacrán has learned how to actively use the poisonous reiatsu of a Hollow and is able to make it effective not just against Quincy but all beings. At it's weakest and base form, a target injected with this venom will begin continuously losing 10% Strength for 5 posts. At class 4, the venom now also begins to drain the targets Speed in the same manner as Strength, the venom now working to cause a full body paralysis. The amount the target lose increases to 20%. At class 2, the venom now eats at the Reiatsu of the afflicted target, on top of Strength and Speed, literally eating away at their soul as Alacrán's reiatsu consumes the target. The amount the target loses increases to 30% The class of this technique is equal to Alacrán's Class (min 1).

Poison Resist: Should the target possess this skill then the venom will affect them as such. A 1 means the amount of Strength, Speed, and Reiatsu lost is reduced by 25%. A 2 means the venom loss is reduced by 50%. A 3 means the venom loss is reduced by 75%. A 4 means the venom loss is reduced by 75%, only affects Strength, and lasts for 2 posts.

[Jeff Franklin]

Doesn't seem this Gillian is going to be answering Jeff anytime soon, in fact he doesn't seem to want Jeff this close to him. Twisting in it's position Jeff is able to see the giant hand coming up to swat Jeff out of the air. A grin begins to widen on Jeff's face that is hidden behind his mask as he knows how to counter this type of attack thanks to learning the Martial Art of Lua from his previous teacher. Releasing his constructed arms grip they had on Alacran's shoulder Jeff raises them up at their max speed of 300 before smashing downward on the forearm of this giant causing one major thing to happen. The major thing is it will cause a shift in direction as the arms power is just enough to lower the area the hand would swipe through forcing the hand to miss Jeff.



The Hollow doesn't seem to be finished, however, as he follows up by dropping to one knee and smashing his fist into the ground before throwing it back up along with a lot of sand creating concealment. This cloud of sand would do the job well enough as the only thing Jeff manages to see is Alacran disappearing, Ok, there's only one place people attack when their trying to catch their target off guard, with this thought he will turn around just in time to see the massive form of the Hollow appear in the corner of his eye in the area that would have been in front of him.



Spinning his head around Jeff would notice the mandibles coming at him, with how much time he had to react he couldn't stop the attack altogether, but he sure would be able to mitigate a lot of the damage. Thanks to his constructed arms being as fast as they are Jeff was able to use them to grab a mandible in each hand, however, even the arms didn't have the strength to stop the attack from piercing his sides. Jeff was able to prevent a lot of damage doing this though, what would have been a hole going completely through from one side of his abdomen to the other ended up only being about two inches deep and one and a half inches wide, thus missing any vital damage.



Along with the mandible attack Jeff would also find himself slammed into the white sand below, luckily the sand prevented a lot of the actual impact, but he still feels the air leaving his lungs and bones straining, trying not to break. Releasing Jeff the Hollow jumps backwards before getting into a more defensive stance, clearly he thought of Jeff as a threat. Wait, mandibles, considers me a threat, Of Course! It's that scorpion Hollow from before, finally he pieced together the identity of his opponent. Moving to get up he could tell something was off, as if some of his strength seemed to be leaving him. Feeling the wounds he would notice that blood wasn't the only liquid flowing from his wound, Poison?


"Alright, now I remember who you are, you will find me to be much more of a threat than last time. The question is, would you like me to choke you again? I had a lot of fun with that!" Chuckling as he speaks Jeff will remember the fun moments of their previous fights such as when he managed to get on the scorpions back before choking it with his chains. Currently his open wounds are throbbing, emitting a wonderful sensation that can barely be described. Mmmm, I just live being roughed up by someone strong enough to take my punishment, with this thought the chuckling Jeff begins walking forward.



This calm walk turns into a sprint as Jeff surges forward racing directly at the giant Hollow, just before reaching five feet in front of the Gillian Jeff would disappear into yet another doorway that opens up in front of him. If Alacran was frightened before about the thought of Jeff landing on his back he was going to be absolutely horrified at what happens next, a doorway would open up above Alacran which Jeff would step out of. Leaving the portal he would fall and land on top of the Hollows head while bringing the constructed arms down, smashing them into Alacran's face. 


During the onslaught Jeff will start laughing for multiple reasons, them being him causing pain and him feeling pain from the wounds he got from the mandibles and the phantom fire pain from the portal, sliding backwards down the massive Hollows head before using the arms to grab onto area just below the neck allowing him to hang there. If all went the way he hoped Jeff would be in a similar position as the first fight, using his arms to anchor him to Alacran's back. Lifting his voice he will begin screaming so that the Gillian could hear him, "Well, doesn't this bring back memories, if I had a long enough chain I would have used it by now, but somethings just aren't meant to be."

[Alacrán]

Alacrán is doing what he can to stay focused on his opponent as pain shoots up his arm from the wrist he'd just used to swipe at Jeff. He was almost certain that it was either broken or dislocated as he glances at his hand and sees the cracks in his arm. Along with this, he notices slight pain along his face as cracks form along his mandibles. He's didn't notice it before when he'd attack him but somehow he'd experienced some kind of backlash from that.

He manages to focus enough on the sinner as he speaks, "Alright, now I remember who you are, you will find me to be much more of a threat than last time. The question is, would you like me to choke you again? I had a lot of fun with that!" Jeff wouldn't be able to tell due to the fact that Hollows wear mask but the color drains from Alacrán's face as the Saika confirms that this is who he thought it was and the fact that he'd managed to figure out who he was as well. He also manages to notice that his mandibles had actually managed to puncture deeper than he expected.

However he doesn't have much more time to speculate on what that might mean as his opponent begins sprinting at him before momentarily disappearing into the portal. Thanks to what the masochistic Sinner had said, the Menos had a clue as to what Jeff was aiming to do. Of course him dodging to the back wasn't an option but also attack from the rear was a very obvious avenue of attack for him to take and Alacrán had a feeling this psychotic man wasn't one for taking the obvious and most predictable route. The other avenue attack to achieve what Jeff was admittedly one that Alacrán himself would also take with a technique like that.

So as soon as the Saika had appeared above him, Alacrán was already moving his body to the left and raising his already injured arm to guard his back which managed to just barely block the aura constructed arms. This ends up sending another much more excruciating shock of pain into his it as the cracking of his armor and probably more can be heard along with a very loud grunt of pain that he tried to stifle through his gritted teeth. He uses what strength he could in this arm, roughly around 300, to try and push Jeff away as he continued to move to the left.

Depending on how this went next would determine how Alacrán would go about the next few moments as he doesn't intend on letting Jeff recover or try to get up on him. So if he actually managed push Jeff away, he'd raise his good arm and send a flurry of punches his way, fully intending to send several shockwaves at the Saika. He'd then leaps towards Jeff but disappears into an Ulcera just as he takes off but doesn't reappear and passes by Jeff as he takes another step launching himself about 100 feet into the air above Jeff before he reappears and launches four Bala's at the Sinner before rocketing back to the ground, causing the sand to erupt once more.

Should Alacrán not be able to push Jeff away then set aside all of what had just been stated above. If he's unsuccessful in pushing Jeff away and Jeff ends up latching onto his arm or some other portion of his body, a high sense of panic will fill Alacrán as memories flash back to what happened last time around. He raises his good arm and gathers a red ball of energy that he then launches at his own body to try and blow the Sinner off himself, then charges another and another and another, only causing minor damage to himself from the explosions but the pain was worth ridding himself of the pest.

[Jeff Franklin]

His attack mostly went the way he wanted; sure, he didn’t get to smash Alacran’s face but Jeff was still able to grab his back as he fell from above the giant Hollow. His new closeness with Alacran didn’t seem to be welcome though, for as soon as Jeff managed to grip the area just under the Gillian’s neck he used the arm that just took a nasty hit as Jeff was falling to try and push Jeff away from his body. It was a good attempt, Jeff will admit to that, but, even with the arm somewhat in between Jeff and his body it just didn’t have the strength to overpower Jeff’s constructed arms.



As Jeff felt the arm push against him he released one of the arm’s grip in order to reel it back, sending it forward to smash the wrist that was a part of the arm being used to try pushing him off. After embedding his fingers into the wrist after that palm strike Jeff would shove the arm downwards, allowing it to fall limp or at least fall away from Jeff. Thanks to the constructed arm being free again he would grab the area beneath the neck again and prepare for whatever Alacran would do next.



Something Jeff did seems to have riled the Hollow up; because Jeff would see him begin charging a red ball in his other hand, I wonder if this is going to be painful? I hope so, after all, the only damage I've taken from him has been the gifts on my sides. This is when Alacran would begin firing the Bala at the areas Jeff is currently latched to, or at least is trying to hit the areas that Jeff is attached to. Screaming out with a laugh, “This is cute, are you trying to hurt me? Aim a little to the left if you are, I haven’t taken a hit yet!”



With Jeff helping his opponent some of the Bala’s actually manage to find him, or at least they would have if Jeff didn’t have the right constructed arm curled up like a shield. The worst part for Alacran is that this arm shield still managed to grab his back, this does leave Jeff in a strange position though. As long as Alacran shoots the Bala’s he can’t really attack, the only thing he can do is keep his grip strong. Something Jeff takes note of though is his constructed arms are being chipped, so how long can they last before he needs to make new ones?

[Alacrán]

Alacrán let's out a rather inhumane, unearthly, unholy even, screech as Jeff crawls along his body and he let's loose the barrage of Balas upon himself. He gives up on the Balas as Jeff gets to a spot that he can't even aim at and begins to spin around uselessly, using his arms to try and bat and swat the unwanted guest on his back.

After another few seconds of this most likely useless line of action, he suddenly stops and just crouches as low as his enormous and awkward form would allow before launching himself into straight up into the air with all his strength which quickly launches them quite some distance into the air. However, right as he sent them flying into the air, they had disappeared into an Ulcera. Just as they're about to reach the peak of how far this jump gets them, Alacrán begins to turn his body, angling back down at the ground as he uses another step to send them flying back towards the ground at a speed of 375.

Just as they're about to hit the ground, Alacrán starts turning his body so he lands with Jeff underneath him and drops out of the Ulcera, so Jeff couldn't escape this kamikaze method of dealing with the pest until it was too late. As they crash into the ground, Alacrán grunts as he feels a rather painful spot around where Jeff would've been and picks himself up as quickly as he can.

Hopefully this would have battered the Saika enough to get him to loosen his grip as Alacrán would then raise his hand, not formed in a fist but flat and extend out, and drives it aimed as the Sinner's head. More specifically aimed for his mask. After he attempts this strike he'd have to take a step back to regather and refocus himself through the pain that was wracking his body.

[Jeff Franklin]

Alacran lets out an ear piercing screech as he barrages Jeff with Bala, although this didn’t seem to get rid of the Saika clinging to the Hollow’s back. At some point he seemed to realize his tactic was failing so he switched to swatting at Jeff again, this would also prove to be in vain as Jeff would just unravel his arm that was being used as a shield before getting another good grip on the Hollow’s back. As Alacran swats at Jeff the Saika would simply move just out of reach to the left or right depending on the hand being used.



Yet again Alacran must have realized it was pointless doing what he was, for he would suddenly stop before crouching as low as he could manage. What was he planning? would be the only thought traveling through Jeff’s mind before that question would be answered, Alacran would quickly launch himself and Jeff into the air. This wouldn’t have worried Jeff too much if it wasn’t for what followed after, as they were starting to move through the air they seem to momentarily slip into a whole different world. This place they entered looked just like the world they were just in, but here Alacran was moving much faster into the sky. As suddenly they entered that strange place they left.



If Jeff thought it was over he would be mistaken, for when they reached the absolute pinnacle of the jump Alacran turned to face the ground before stepping into yet another crack into that strange world. This time they are plummeting to the ground at breakneck speed before they slip back into Hueco Mundo. Before they reach the ground Alacran begins turning in the air, obviously attempting to land on his back, crushing Jeff in the process.



If only it would have gone that smoothly for Alacran, as soon as Jeff realized what was about to happen he kicked off Alacran's back, twisting in the air himself before disappearing into one of those doorways he keeps using. Traveling through these portals always hurts, searing his skin without actually damaging him. Alacran would more than likely slam into the ground before Jeff pops out of another doorway after entering the first one. The doorway he exits this time is just above where they would have landed causing him to shoot out of the portal and slam into Alacran’s stomach, smashing down his constructed arms into the Hollows chest palms first, doing so as soon as his body makes contact with Alacran.



Jeff could only let out hysterical laughter after bringing all this pain to his opponent, not that he himself was unscathed, the wounds on his sides were still bleeding and aching which only made Jeff happier. “I hope you're not done, I still have more time before playtime is over!” Jeff would yell this at Alacran. Before the Hollow could do anything Jeff would bring his Aura made arms back up and slam them down pinning down Alacran’s arms. Let’s see if he can squirm his way out of this and bring me more pain! Oh how I love to watch my enemies hurt! With this twisted thought Jeff would now wait and see what the Hollow would do.

Hell Step- 50

[Alacrán]

The wind gets knocked out of Alacrán as he lands on the ground but he doesn't end up suffering any kind of serious injuries from the impact. Unfortunately he isn't quite quick enough to recover and move out of the way of the portal that opens above him and spits the Saika towards him at speeds too fast for him to keep up with. So naturally Jeff's attack ends up landing, knocking the wind out of the Hollow once more and causing another bout of excruciating pain for him to bear and go through.

As he reels back from the pain, he notices the vice grip strength of the arms restraining his arms. His eyes widen and he plants his feet firmly into the ground and tries to raise himself up, using what leverage he can barely manage with his arms to help him. The arms may be keeping his own from moving around too much but Jeff wouldn't have the size or weight to completely keep him down either.

So depending how much leverage he can use with his arms, he pushes himself either up or over onto his side, either way he aims to put Jeff in a tight and tricky spot to be in. If he manages to get himself up, he'd swing his arms back and forth to either send Jeff flying off or disorient him. If he ends up disorientating him then he'll try to raise his arms up and slam them into the ground along with Jeff and his arms as well of he could.

However if he could not even get enough leverage to push himself up then he'd at least try and push himself over, trying to roll his massive body off of his back and try to land on his stomach with Jeff underneath him. If he pulls this off then Jeff would probably have to let go or be overwhelmed by the massive Menos. So if Alacrán even felt a bit of Jeff's red arms let up on his grip to try and escape, he'd push himself with all the strength he could muster into the air, flying high above the Saika.

He'd then begin charging up a bala in each hand and then throws his foot out to push against seemingly nothing only for him to disappear once more into the veil in between. He launches himself at an angle and lands a few meters next to Jeff. As soon as he lands he reappears and let's off the two balas, hoping to finally land some more damage on the crazed hellion.

[Jeff Franklin]

His simple counter seemed to work for Jeff managed to make it through the portal in time and land his hit before attempting to restrain this giant Hollow. Everything looks to be going to plan, that is until Alacran begins pushing off the ground with his feet. With this happening Jeff would only have one thought rushing through his brain, Oh crap, what is he trying to do. Readying himself for any situation Jeff waits for whatever would come next.



If Alacran would Roll onto his stomach Jeff would be able to use his ten foot long arms to prop up the Gillian by bracing part of the arms to the ground while letting go of Alacran's arms to grip his stomach and hold him up. At the moment Jeff can't do too much else other than hold up the big monster so he has to think fast before Alacran makes his next move. Only taking a couple of seconds he managed to come up with something he could do. Lowering Alacran to be as close as he could get to touching his skin, Jeff used this distance he gained like a spring, essentially tossing Alacran to his left. Sadly he wouldn't go to far or take any real damage, but, he would be free from the weight of the Gillan. He would then use another Hell Step to move back in front of Alacran where he could look into his eyes.



If Alacran managed to get to his feet and try shaking Jeff Jeff around with his arms, Jeff would simply release his grip on the Hollows arms and grab at his stomach instead, clinging close to Alacrans skin. Moving before the Gillian can do anything Jeff would crawl up Alacran's front at a speed of 300. Whare would he be heading to Alacran may wonder? Well to the head of course. If Alacran tries to stop him with Bala or by swatting him using his giant hands Jeff would attempt to dodge all attacks, even if a few do land their mark it would stop Jeff and his strong grip from continuing up. If nothing extreme was used to stop Jeff then when he reaches the Gillians face he would simply say boo before kicking off and into another portal before stepping out onto the ground in front of the Hollow.



If Alacran still planned on using Ulcera to land next to Jeff before letting loose two Bala's Jeff would simply try blocking the attacks as best as he can, this time he does not escape unscathed. Thanks to the power behind those Bala his right arm has a large gash while his right side seems to be bleeding pretty decently. "Ouch, it hurts me to think you wanted to end this quickly, why not take your time instead? Pain is so delicious after all", Jeff would say this with a slight giggle. That blitz attack damaged his cloak some, lucky for Jeff it wasn't to severe he isn't worried about being dragged back to Hell just yet.



Finally, some more real pain was inflicted on Jeff, sure he has been enjoying the misery being brought upon Alacran, but the more the merrier. Using Hell Step yet again Jeff would disappear from sight. Would he appear behind or above? Not this time, a door would open as soon as Jeff entered and closed the previous one right under and between Alacran's feet. With a big grin that is being hidden by the mask he wears Jeff reaches for both the right and left foot with his right and left Aura arms, respectively. Once he has gripped Alacran's feet Jeff would pull the giants left foot inward (towards the right) and the moment he stops he would push his right foot outward (towards the right), doing so hoping he causes the Gillian to fall.

Hell Step X2- 100

[Alacrán]

Not being able to gain enough leverage to push himself up, what with Jeff's arms keeping him from moving his own too much. So he ended up resorting to pushing himself over and trying to roll on top of Jeff. Just as he expected, Jeff was forced to let go to try and prevent himself from being crushed. As soon as Alacrán felt that, he sent himself flying into the air, body perpendicular to the ground and Jeff. He had only a moment to think of his next move. Unfortunately he isn't able to think that quickly as Jeff would reappear in front of him, however he didn't completely panic at the sight as he saw the portal.

Instead he quickly charged up a Cero Morder and tried to bite Jeff with it, causing them both some pain should he manage to catch him in his mandibles. He didn't expect this to land really with how quickly the damn Saika had been moving but it would buy him some time to think. So when Jeff disappears, should he disappear again from the pathetic Cero, Alacrán would quickly swirl around and fire off a Bala before stepping into the Veil with an Ulcera, assuming that Jeff would be trying to reappear behind him or generally just on him.

As he disappears into the Veil, sending himself higher into the air instead of back towards the ground and hopefully alone, Alacrán would think about what his options were and how he could defeat the crazed Hellion as well as keep his eye on him. He knew that the mask definitely had something to do with him disappearing so suddenly last time yet he was too quick and too small of a target for him to actually land a hit on the mask.

On top of that those red arms were strong, stronger than him and his armor it would seem. However they felt physical so maybe there was something he could do about them. Still he wasn't sure if doing anything to them would mean it'd stop or weaken Jeff in any way. No, his main issue was just keeping Jeff in one place to land a hit on him. He needed to stop him first so he could worry about sending him back to Hell.

However he needed to be careful since it seemed for some reason his melee-based attacks didn't seem to completely work on Jeff without receiving some kind of backlash. His Balas and Cero Morders aren't too strong either but it seems Jeff's aura would be working against him as well. Then the proverbial light bulb goes off in Alacrán's head. It seems Jeff is also wanting to keep things close and personal, and with his aura doubly so. Alacrán would make use of that and hope that his plan goes off without a hitch unlike his first one. So he exits the Veil several hundred feet above Jeff and prepares a Bala, launching it off as soon as he reappears.

He wouldn't wait to see if it hit or not as he would then prepare a Cero Morder to bite at the air in front of him, expecting Jeff to reappear in front of his face again. He would then send Jeff flying off to one side if he managed to catch him, quickly letting himself fall into the Veil even if he didn't, just expecting Jeff to reappear on him or around him again.

He twists himself around, searching for the Saika if he didn't feel him on his person while in the Veil. If he wasn't on him in the Veil and had indeed reappeared elsewhere, then Alacrán would use the second step to send himself flying at Jeff, reappearing with an outstretched hand right in front of Jeff, hoping to capture him in this surprise attack. Should he actually manage to capture Jeff, grabbing whatever part of him that he can, even if it was the red arms, Alacrán would then take his other hand and try to grab one or both of Jeff's legs and attempt to pull, twist, and break Jeff's legs.

If he's unable to catch Jeff, Alacrán would twist in the air and attempt to at least send a shockwave at Jeff while he was still close and passing him in the air before shielding himself from any possible retaliations If, unfortunately, Jeff ends up being with him in the Veil then Alacrán would keep them there until they land on the ground, where Alacrán would land on his feet and, upon reappearing, try to grab at Jeff's red arms and legs and attempt to still do the same of breaking his legs.

[Jeff Franklin]

Jeff was in a very bad situation, the giant Hollow began rolling over in an attempt to crush him, so the only way of avoiding something that could possible end the fight he had to let go of the Hollow's chest in order to brace himself. Sure enough the moment he releases his grip Alacran shoves himself off of the ground and went flying straight up into the air. Luckily Jeff has a way to get close to him again. Quickly getting up Jeff uses Hell Step, opening a doorway in front of him that he steps through much faster than normal, a second doorway opens up just as the first one closes which was the moment after Jeff was completely through the door. The second doorway opens up nowhere else but right in front of Alacran's face.



It seems the Gillian was expecting this for he began charging some kind of attack in its mandibles before attempting to bite Jeff with it. If Jeff wasn't using his Dark Skill right now this surprise attack probably would have worked, however, Jeff's aura constructed arms began moving as soon as Jeff noticed the attack, thus catching the mandibles before they can land. If Alacran wasn't worried before he might be now, as Jeff maintained his new grip on the Hollow's mandibles he would begin increasing the amount of pressure he was using with both grips. At some point the Mandibles would start to crack and if Alacran did nothing a good foot of each near their tips would just shatter.



If Alacran did try to stop Jeff somehow all he would do is simply fling himself forward using his constructed arms and the anchor of Alacran's mandibles to do so. If successful than he would essentially hug Alacran's forehead with his constructed arms. While doing this he would be laughing and shouting at Alacran, "As much fun as this fight is, I think it's time to begin the final act, just don't let down my expectations."



The moment Jeff finished screaming at Alacran he would start moving down his face. Where would he try to go might be Alacran's thought, the answer might just cause his blood to run cold. Jeff would be using his constructed arms to move down the Hollow's face at a speed of 300, when he reaches the Gillian's mouth Jeff would try slipping inside. If this succeeds he would start opening the mouth wider and wider, all Alacran would hear is the crazed laughter from the Hellion currently residing inside his mouth.



If Alacran didn't stop his earlier attempt at breaking his mandibles then he would find Jeff quickly reaching forward for his face using his Constructed arms. If Jeff manages to grab onto Alacran's face then he would begin doing the same thing as if an attempt was made to stop him from crushing portions of the Gillian's mandibles.
