Snippet #2728964

And yet....the portals did not close. They remained open, the weapons emerging from them still and they continued to fire. Sometimes they even moved and dodged out of the way. Yes, it was truly perplexing...

However, in truth it was because Avera could re-open the portals immediately that any force that tried to close them, even if it succeeded, would fail. All he had to do was open a new one, and he could do that immediately, interrupting it closing even. Furthermore...

"Now!"

And then, the amount of portals...doubled...

At the same time, this song began to play out of every loudspeaker and portal in the area. In sync with Avera.

At the exact second the portals opened, possessing not even a millisecond delay, the automated and calculated systems of the Amberclad unleashed a full on bombardment with all weapons at once, from particle lances, to beam weapons, to Phasic Missiles. The ship's AI had detected it to be too large of a threat to Avera to allow it to exist any longer, and as the firepower had not been sufficient before, it doubled its allowed actions. If it continued, it would double again.

But right as these attacks were coming down....

"Shattered Space!"

Avera shattered the very space itself around Kagami. Kagami might have started moving at unreal speeds, but Avera was not just using those weapons to target him directly, but also to limit the places he could move to by targeting them as well. And the space directly around and whre Kagami was, he used the ability Shattered Space. Unless it somehow properly protected itself, or dodged, any physical object would get cut into pieces. Of course, Avera considered the possibility it might survive...but he was sure he would get one or two of its limbs if it did not kill him at least.

And that was not all. The moment that Kagami would try to dodge, or if he somehow tried to block the attack, Kurokage would then come at him from behind with a high density full power attack and stab him from behind. And right after Shattered Space, Avera would use The Divider.

Avera had come up with this plan quickly, but it was a good plan he believed...and he had put all his hope into it working, at least enough so that if needed he could pull back.
