Calmly he settles on the water surface, water dripping down his wings. “Is that all you’ve got!?” he demands mocking Dervish. He immediately gives his reply as ash bursts from under the water, ready to crash over Immeadies. Alert Immeadies quickly goes through the gap as the two ash waves collide. Dervish high above watches in anger, unable to control his feelings Dervish unseethes both his swords heading for Immeadies. They both launch at each other, Dervish swings his swords...
Just as Immeadies is about to attack a defenceless Dervish ash bursts from the water between them. He uses his sword to protect himself against the ash only for the sword to blacken. Immeadies backs away i panice watching the ash spread across the water surface. “You’ve surprised me. I thought you would be weaker than this”. Dervish is annoyed by Immeadies attitude, “I would speak softly if I were you” Immeadies gives a little smirk, “Fine you will regret facing me in battle”.

Immeadies looks into the air before flying towards the walls of hell, Dervish quickly follows suit. Both land on two pillars, their eyes fixed on each other as the sky roars above. Immdeadies draws symbols onto his right arm, flaring on the skin before sinking into the skin. The arm itself starts warping and shifting as something is growing inside. The armour on his arm breaks away...
“These things are called, “Ta likas”, he utters, “These things are considered to be the most resilient things known here, on hell. They are considered the greatest predators because they literally feed on energy, fuelling me” As a demonstration one of them rips through the walkway between them, bits of rubble fall to the ground. “Face it you cannot beat me” Immeadies launches another one, aiming directly for Dervish it narrowly misses him, taking out more of the brickwork. .. Another Talika charges at Dervish, knocking him off balance.

Dervish unable to keep is balance falls from the walkway, the air whistling around him with rain falling everywhere. High above he see’s a talika heading down towards him, it’s teeth bared. With quick thinking he spins in midair, controlling a trail of ash. It heads to it’s taget blocking the attack. He lands on the water’s surface uneasily, water dripping from his face. He raises his head up towards the walkway seeing Immeadies falling towards him...
Stunned my his opponents power. Tired he looks up to the sky seeing Immeadies watching him pitifully from above. He suddenly disappears from view, keeping Dervish on guard watching his surroundings. Matius can only watch in desperation through the oncoming rain. Dervish spins on the spot as ripples spread on the water surface. Almost immediately Dervish is attacked by an unknown force knocking him backwards, he catches his balance stunned staring into nothing but the rain. Another invisible blow, knocking him over, his body splashing in the water. “Come one... get up!” Matius shouts, seeing Dervish in trouble. Dervish staggers to his feet dazed. This time Dervish manages to dodge the attack, taking hold of Immeadies arm. With his other hand free, Dervish grips is sword, cutting through the Talika’s. Immeadies screams in pain instantly backing away from Dervish, holding onto his cut bloodied arm. He raises his head in anger, looking at Dervish filled with anger.

“Look out!” Matius shouts, the rain blocking out his voice. Dervish quickly turns seeing Imeadies
Dervish turns to look at his opponent, “Before you say something I suggest you look above”. Imeadies looks bemused, “ so what? It’s stopped raining... it won’t save you” he’s about to continue when he hears something in the sky; fearfully he turns to look into the dark sky. His smile quickly fades. The sky itself has turned black, only glimpses of cloud are showing through. “I’ve had all the time in the world to set this up”, Dervish admits feeling confident. A flash of lightening illuminates the sky. Immeadies looks to the black sky scared, unable to make the blackness out. “What is this?” he demands fearfully.

A rumble from the clouds fill the air. “I call this final judgement” Dervish states, raising his head honouring his work. Rain continues to fall all around them. “All the angels, demons, being that have fallen because of this are now a part of me” A flash of lightening reveals a huge blanket of ash high in the dark rain clouds. “This is their judgement upon you” Rumbling is heard high in the sky setting the scene. Dervish looks at Immeadies coldly, “You will not escape this”...
With the ash closing in Immeadies flys as fast as he can go. The wind hurting his skin, the pressure almost hurts. He glances up above seeing the wall of ash suddenly increase falling speed, about to fall into the water. With renewed urgency he pushes himself harder, screaming under the effort. The wall of ash comes down into the water, making a wave. Immeadies immediately follows along the wall of falling ash, hoping to reach the corner. As he approaches the corner more talika’s come out of his arm, ready to attack the ash wall. They head in towards the wall...
