THROW DOWN: Freedom Vs Burden

"If I stay lost, this world might begin to unravel. If my continued suffering would be enough to save this others, then so be it."

Terin brings "Mo" in a cross strike to Airius, who is forced to bring right arm up to block it. The mace makes a sickening thud as it connects with Airius' arm, but Airius uses the close proximity to launch a gut punch at Terin

Terin winces, takes a few steps back, and spits out some blood. Terin takes a defensive stance, and looks at Airius. "Come now, Pot, is the world really held together that losely? Your suffering is something you inflict upon yourself, and it's causing others to do the same. They do not see the choice they have, and neither do you. Set yourself free. Don't let Dilligence make your decision for you."

"Yes Ladle, I do have a choice. And my choice is to do the greatest good for the most people." Airius draws back with Ruler on guard, his limp arm hung by his side as powers of Order begin to swirl around the wound. "And you are right again. I do not shoulder the weight of the world, just all of Mod's children."

This illusion you call Order is what's fueling you then, Pot? Nature's truest form is chaos, as is freedom. People enjoy its perks, but they are too weak to experience it's absolute power. The bad things in life, the things that we deem "illegal" or wrong in general are all bits of chaos trying to escape. You see this and call it evil so people instantly submit to your "Order", lest they be considered evil as well. Nature chose Chaos as it's purest form, without law, except natures law, which is as random and chaos itself. Man simply feeds off of the luxuries that Order vampirically suck from Freedom, hoping that it will sedate man's will. This is the illusion that you protect. You see yourself as a Guardian of the people, but I see you as their Jailer. *Terin's Coat begins shining with different hues in them. He lifts Mo into the air, eyes wide, taking in all of his surroundings, the air, the ground, his breathing, the breathing of the other Pans and Utensils*

You, dear Burden, are trying to keep a lid on what needs to be stirred!

As Terin prepares his attack, Airius' Order power finally mends enough of his arm to move it again. "Order and illusion? Hardly. Chaos exists in nature, but so does Order. It is a balancing act we must all maintain."

Airius smiled as Ruler began to glow, a violent red color. "You apparently don't know me well, otherwise you'd realize the irony of lecturing me on Order and Chaos." Airius points Ruler at Terin, as bolts of red lightning streak out of his mace.

"CHAOS BOLT!"

*As the bolt flies at Terin, he reaches out his hand and absorbs it as it makes contact. * "You cannot use a form of freedom to defeat a freedom, Airius. Chaos is the greatest form of freedom. You'll have to use order, you'll have to concentrate. The balance you speak of, is an illusion as well. It masks the domination that Order keeps over Chaos. It is this that I wish to release.

"Interesting, you enjoy Chaos then. Well, I'll have to let you meet Surbifeh some time." The red glow surrounding Ruler began to fade, and a bright white glow rose to engulf Ruler. "But for now, let us see if what you say is true. Let's learn if balance exists in this world or not. Because if it doesn't, then you should not fear this at all."

Airius charges Terin and brings Ruler up in an overhead strike, aiming for the Freedom's left clavical. (the Ruling Judgement attack)

Silently, in the shadows, Ming sits waiting...watching his brothers in the epic battle they are involved in.

With each blow, his eyes glow brighter in anticipation...

*As Airius nears Terin, he tumbles to one side, and as he rolls up he spins and uses the momentum to launch Mo into Airius's back.*
Fear is a form of order used to dominate ones judgement, and that I do not condone. One would say if I'm not afraid, then I'm a fool. In my eyes, the fool is "the lesser of the two evils". Thank you for the lesson Brother Mace. Be an honorable chap and don't team up on my fellow Freedoms. I bid you farewell. *Terin shimmers and fades from view, gone from the arena*
