In an attempt to make so room I used all the tension in my lags and shot backwards this only gave a mont to charge up a second bullet before Onyx was right after closing the gap in an instant.
I had been trying to slow her down with my Gyrokinesis from the beginning of the fight but for so reason the effect is simply slipping off of her so I would have to resort to psionics that manifested physical objects.
Keeping the charge building up in my psionic bullet while moving and evading a murder machine was proving to be a challenge. I would have already been able to fully charge a shot if stationary but moving kept on resetting little bits of progress.
After a few minutes my bullet was finally ready, I was sweating with how hot the room was becoming as I lined up the shot. Onyx however would not let have such a clear target and began weaving every which way to throw off my aim.
I could not hold the full powered shot for long as my arm was beginning to hurt so with a final alignnt I took my shot. It was a powerful shot even Onyx had to admit so with a turn of her body she managed to evade most of the shot with just a small amount of the power grazing her torso cracking open the top layer of her chitin.
I attempted this gambit multiple tis more the heat generating inside the room making sweat more and more and each ti I took a shot Onyx was now able to easily dodge the projectiles I sent her way.
With my final energy expended I planted my knees down in the water below gasping for air amidst the scorching air around . To Onyx it looked like her target had finally ran out of energy and could no longer fight therefore she began to strut over to her defeated prey in a rather sensual manor for a reason unknown to her and was ready to grant the final strike.
Upon reaching a ter away from her target, designation reason to exist looked up at her with a sinister small as though she had been caught in a trap.
And indeed she had. I had always been able to use Thermokinesis to alter my body temperature and the air just slightly around to stay a cool temperature. But after my Origin tamorphosis It had taken on another property one I had not been able to use thanks to my year long injury to the soul.
Onyx a being who could survive a void and is from a species who's ho planet is riddles with volcanoes has immunity to all temperature conditions, so when the room started to grow hotter and hotter over an interval she had not realised it as an attack from her target who had shown no Psionic energy expenditure besides his bullets and an attempt to place sothing on her body earlier but was repelled by the barrier around her.
With the air now hot and Onyx close enough to , I Compressed all the air around and used my energy as the fuel for a gigantic fireball. The explosion shook the room sending hurdling backwards into the deeper water. I knew the attack was not strong enough to finish Onyx off but I had hoped it would have injured her enough.
Unfortunately My gambit had not paid off and out of the fire erged a damaged Onyx. Her left arm was gone as she probably used it to block a lot of the explosion and so of her torso was still alight with fla but that seed to have no effect on her as she charged to my location and pulled out of the water by the head.
There was conflict in her eyes a part of her wished to complete her task and another felt sothing unfamiliar. She shook of the unfamiliar and was prepared to run through her target when a booming voice escaped from the targets mouth.
"ONYX STOP!" I yelled with a voice that was not my own and my eyes glowing violet . It was deeper and seed to physically hold power over Onyx.
Onyx was paralysed. She tried to resist the voice and continue her mission but with every resistance large swathes of her energy were cut from her.
"I don't know what Orchid had asked you to do but you have gone too far! You will return to my Mindspace and regain your mories and emotions at once!" I Ordered to her bellowing still with a voice not my own. It was then an incredible phenonon had happened, Around Onyx space seed to tear open and through them large chains lashed out towards her.
They easily broke through the anti psionic cocoon to the surprise of the nearby queen guard, who instantly made another one around the scenario to keep her mutation from being exposed to the hive, and wrapped around her limbs before she simply dissapeared along with the chains.
Once I could feel Onyx inside my Mindspace I let out a large sigh and realised I was still where I was when She had by the head. Looking down I was floating just above the waters surface "what the?" Sadly I did not have ti to investigate as at that mont my power seed to enact its toll as I fell into the pool with a bloody nose.
I was not even subrged for a second before a panicked Orchid had erged from who knows where and pulled out of the water. "Apollo are you ok?" she said brushing my cheeks with her hands and staring at with huge watery eyes. "I'm fine surprisingly, A little banged up.
A hole in my shoulder and a burn on my thigh that hurts like a- but other wise I'm a ok" I said as I took stock of my condition.
Orchid seed to have had tons of stress removed from her shoulders when my words sent relief over her body. "Orchid is sorry for how this training ended up. Orchid did not expect that bi- Onyx from going so far." Orchid looked distraught like I would take my anger out on her or sothing.
I was not mad in the slightest, Well maybe a little but I don't bla anyone for what happened as I'm sure in the future when I'm travelling, I will be in tough battles just like the one just now so I took it as a good opportunity to learn.
" You have nothing to be sorry for, Just in the future don't surprise by throwing an Onyx at the first thing in the morning." I said a I began to stroke her hair. 'seriously though and onyx are having words later even if she was not at fault fully.'
With the help of Orchid I made my way to the lab to go and soak in my tank for a short while. I had my head sticking out of the top while having a casual conversation with Orchid and Jewel who was mad about Orchids training plan. I only needed an hour in the tank to heal the burn before I got out and asked about my power that subdued Onyx.
Jewel said it was almost certainly to do with my bondage over her but the ability to break through anti psionic barriers, which ca as a shock to , should be investigated further as simply put, it was a huge deal for psionic energy to break anti psionic energy.
I felt a headache coming on so I decided to just spend the day doing nothing and watch ongoing invasions through my bio-pad in bed. Jewel and Orchid took no displeasure in my action as they happily nuzzled up next to as I wasted the day away in peace.
It was soti later while watching the Ker'mins decimate an advance force that I felt a probe coming from inside my Mindspace. Knowing who it was I entered ready to give Onyx a scolding but once I lay eyes upon her my heart shattered.
She was balled up surrounding herself in her chains, a small pool of tears had actually manifested around her she was shaking and would occasionally twitch as she rembered what she almost had done.
Walking over to her, I turned her over so her face was facing and in her deep dark eyes I could feel her sorrow ,regret and fear at what I may do to her and for what she almost did to . Her tentacle like hair had also tangled up amongst each other as if to further display her stress.
Getting closer I placed a gentle loving kiss on her forehead before bringing her in for a hug. Onyx was surprised by this she was expecting her love to hate her for almost killing him but she could talk about that with him later for now she just wrapped her large body all around him and enjoyed the peace and comfort it brought her.
