Only A Few Blades Appear

Trying to get out of the way her body reacted way before her mind could but Xilo's grip kept her from moving much. A little shaken by how much strength he was showing Felli barely managed to stop herself from getting injured. "What the fuck was that." The air was growing heavier by the second as she stared at the midnight black blade that nearly impaled her while her eyes travelled down the blade to see where it came from however she only saw it poking out of Xilo's arm. Feeling her thoughts begin to wander the longer she stared at the blade she broke contact with it as a bit of fear seeped into her mind.

"....Xilo?"

Steadying her mind she avoided the blade as she looked down at the man she thought she knew somewhat but he seemed completely different to her all a sudden as he slowly got up. Ripping his hand off her leg with all the strength she could she quickly took a step back just in case as Xilo revealed his face to her. "This isn't Xilo." Looking at all the changes that had appeared it didn't even seem like a real person. His eyes had turned into mini swords that mirrored the ones on his arm along with his teeth turning into sharp blades as his smile grew wider and more frightening than ever before. His eyes and hair had swapped from primarily silver to red as a trail of fire that she had never seen before came to life in his other hand.

"Xilo that is you right?"

She didn't notice any other changes besides those things so it was a bit hard to tell if it was really still Xilo or something else entirely. The only thought that calmed her mind was the fact that nothing else had transformed on his body except those area's however that dark feeling she had sensed earlier had now become the only thing she could feel as she looked at him. "An Astral Ability?" She had seen some people have similar things to this in the past but those all felt a lot different compared to now so she had a hard time believing that was the case but she didn't know for sure. "It feels off, like it isn't really him." Unfortunately before she could try and figure things out anymore she heard another thud as a body fell to the ground while a voice leaked out with immense fear that she didn't think was possible from anyone.

"Xi-Xi-Xilo..."

Turning her head she saw Tearia's body shaking uncontrollably as she backed up away from him as far as she could. ".....This got complicated." Her mind already couldn't keep up with this situation but she felt it was about to get a whole lot worse for all of them. Charging forward Tearia powered her body with Lightning as attacks came flying at her but she didn't dodge them. She let them smack against her body as she got closer to her opponent. "What do you choose?" With that slightly devilish smile she watched the panic grow in his eyes from such an unexpected turn of events as she got closer. "Only one shot." Creating the Lightning spear from before she pushed it forward with all her body weight and strength stabbing it into his body.

"Get lost."

Looking at the girl charging him with reckless abandon he was lost on what to do for a second. "I can't kill her..." Not knowing what to do, it was already too late by the time he decided to dodge the attack. "Make it non fatal." Feeling his body flinch as his Astral Energy went out of control he positioned his chest in a place where it wouldn't kill him to get hit as the lightning pierced deep into his chest. Feeling his entire body get shocked he felt the darkness coming for him in an instant as he passed out. "Up to you Zilan." With that last thought his body hit the ground as Tearia panted slightly making sure everything was okay before she felt a weird feeling attack her.

"Something doesn't feel right."

Looking around the room she noticed Felli had finished her fight as her eyes found where she was but in doing so she saw a sight that haunted her nightmares to this day.

"Xi-Xii-Xilo."

Looking at a form she deeply remembered from way back she felt her whole body start to shiver as she took a step back with fear overwhelming her. "It's back." While it may not have been the exact same as before she could never forget those blades especially that smile. She had so desperately hoped that day her mind just threw in thoughts to scare her but seeing it in the flesh again she knew that it was no longer just a lie and that it was definitely Xilo. Watching him turn her way after she said that she suppressed a scream as Xilo ignored Felli walking straight for her. "Calm down Tearia." Trying to keep herself from freaking out she stopped moving backwards as she watched Xilo walk towards her. "He doesn't seem nearly as aggressive as before." Back in the Astral Zone he had felt a lot more angry then now but she still didn't know what was about to happen. "Now isn't back then...I can do this." However before she got the chance to do anything she saw her vision get blocked by black clothing.

"Don't worry Tearia I'll take care of this."

"Felli?" Unable to say anything she looked at Felli's back as she attempted to protect her. "Don't." Trying to squeeze that out she couldn't manage to do anything. If there was one thing she wanted at the moment it was for Felli to not even bother trying to fight Xilo as of right now. She knew exactly how he was in this form or whatever it was and if she got into a fight with him now trying to help her it would only make everything worse. "Speak up!" Shouting at herself to actually do something she grabbed felli's back finally. Watching her turn around she forced out a smile as she silently shook her head no.

".....Are you sure?"

Shaking her head yes she pushed Felli out of the way as she watched Xilo come back into view with a world of flames surrounding him now. "I think it's time I correct some mistakes of the past." imagining normal Xilo, Tearia shakily took a step forward as Felli watched on from the side for anything else. "Zilan could show up at any time however if he does I will go all out if I have to." If she had to she would even use her tool to make sure nothing happened. She didn't really understand what was happening right now but that darkness feeling was suffocating her along with Xilo's new appearance that she had never seen before. "We're going to need to have a long conversation after this is over." Although that was if everything ended well. If not the could be a very big turning point for all of them.

"Is this what I sensed in him or is it something else?"

"Xilo are you there?"

Walking closer to him she stared at his red eyes as they blazed in insanity but she didn't get any sort of reply but dead silence as he stared at her sending shivers up her spine but she tried her best to ignore it. No matter what this was still Xilo the man she loved with all her heart so no matter what form he took on she had to treat him the same. Before that was something she had failed at and even been the cause of but this time was different. She wouldn't let the same mistake happen twice.
