Having just arrived back in the city I began to feel weaker. Much more so then earlier. "So weak...Must attack." I scanned the area around me before settling on someone wandering by. Transforming into my dark mode and summoning my sword I beelined for them preparing to attack.

Well, today was interesting at best. I was just walking back from a job when I end up attacked by some kid.
I heard him running up but pulled out Rebellion slightly later then needed, getting a good cut on me. Nothing fatal but enough to hurt. Ignoring the pain, I swung my sword at him. He was gonna pay for attacking me.

"Must. Attack." Normally, I wouldn't attack someone out of the blue but something within me was overpowering my sense of logic as I swung Soul Eater around only to be met by his blade. "Must. Regain. Strength." I said as I pushed my assault.
If he could hear the undertone of my voice it would have been: "Help me."

Armor mode, activated
Alcatraz had suddenly seemed to form out of nowhere, a heavy, genetically enhanced fist, suddenly swinging in Riku's direction. Alcatraz had his mask pulled up over his face and wasn't pulling any punches. He'd been wandering around the city in his stealth mode when he had heard the two lock blades. He'd made a swift decision that the smaller of the two was the aggressor and a quick coding scan proved his assumptions. He also picked up the distinctive coding of an Otherborn in the masked figure.
He had wasted no time in un-cloaking and armouring up, launching an attack on the Otherborn. He wasn't aiming to kill, he wanted to know what this guy looked like before makin a decision. Somehow he was stopping him reading his soul code, like there was something blocking it...

Vergil had been gathering supplied nearby when he had heard the commotion, being intimately aware of the strange things that took place in Urbadelphia caused the half devil to investigate where normally he would have cared very little. Following the sounds to their source had brought him upon a rather interesting sight, his brother was apparently under attack by something that didn't seem to be quite human, a man in what appeared to be a high tech suit of armour was also on the scene. This caused an amused smirk to make its way onto his face where normally there was little to no expression.
In a quick movement he had drawn Yamato from its sheath and was already making his way towards the group with long strides before suddenly darting forwards and slashing at Riku with his beloved katana.

Before I knew it, someone with a bionic suit had come up behind me and slugged me across the face. Guess it was a good thing I had my mask on. Picking myself up I felt someone else rushing up behind me and backflipped while recalling Soul Eater. "So many people..." "Have you all come to make me stronger?" I said with a smile.

"No." Alcatraz sent bluntly as he stretched out his neck, his voice distorted slightly by his mask. "But I have come to shut you the hell up, you're making a racket" with that he raised his fists and took a defensive stance as he double checked his energy levels. He had enough to fight off the entire Otherworld, forget this one kid.

"I would but I'm so weak...And it seems killing something will make me stronger. Now, let's begin." I rushed towards the man and delivered a string of slashes at him I had to kill this man fast as with every passing minute I felt weaker than before. As I attacked, inside my mask my eyes turned back to sea-green for a second. "Please...Stop me. I'm not myself." I whispered.

I looked between the armored guy, Verg and my attacker. I nodded at the two helping me out and continued to fight. The way he was fighting reminded me of a wounded animal, whether you try to help or not, he was going to put up a fight.
The cut on my side was beginning to sting but I tried to keep it under control. It's not like I've never been slashed before, I have plenty of times, especially because of Vergil.
"So, we take him down and figure out what's going on with him?" I didn't want to kill him, just figure out why he did that.

Vergil narrowed his eyes in annoyance as Riku backflipped, causing his attack to miss. Vergil didn't bother replying to Riku's comment about how many people were present, not feeling the need to banter back and forth during a battle when actions spoke so much louder. Using abnormally quick movements he moved to get in behind Riku, lashing out at him once more, giving a quick nod to answer Dante's question. While he certainly didn't have a problem with killing this pest, it could attract unwanted attention.

Calling on my darkness I fired a volley of dark balls at the trio that had shown up to fight me but in my weakened state they weren't going to do much damage. "Have fun!" I said.

I dodged the dark balls and charged back in to attack, making sure not to hurt any allies while I was doing such. This kid's voice seemed familiar but I was unable to place it. Either way though, I kept swinging and shooting at him when he was far enough away to warrant it.

I was losing power. "I must kill them so I can get away." I mumbled. I jumped around before charging Dante again as we locked blades again. "Why won't you die? If you don't, I won't last!" I said.

"Tch, sorry but I'm fond of living. Dying kind of seems like a waste." I said cockily before I pushed my blade harder against his and jumped back. He seemed to be getting far more weak by the second, hopefully if that's true, he won't last too much longer.

It was getting harder to stand. "I...will...kill...you." I pooled my remaining strength together and charged Dante once again. "This is the end for you!" I shouted.
