Vanos stood at the top of a high cliff, looking over a huge waste-land. He could see, in the distance, small brush tree's, utterly dry and devoid of life. Deep cracks in the earth, in riverbeads where water used to flow. Vanos pulled at his thick green cloak, he wasn't used to this type of scortching heat, but it was here that Garth was hidden. He drew his sword, with its odd dragon motif and longer blade. It couldn't exactly be called a buster sword, but it was still plenty tough. "Where are you giant turtle?" He asked the wind, looking out over the fields of nothingness.
Sighing, he jumped off the cliff, falling the six hundred meters to the ground below, landing softly beside the remains of a stream. The bed cracked and dry. Oddly, it seemed to be rising and falling minisually. "Oh, now thats odd." He said, walking over and giving the ground a few pokes with his sword. Didn't help much to reveal what was underneath though. Vanos held out his blade, and chanted a short phrase in an arcane language. His sword began to glow with power. "FORCE!" He yelled, slamming it into the ground. A 20 meter section of dirt and hidden mud was cleared in a circle, revealing a dry, bronze colored segment of a shell. The ground began to rumble beneith Vanos as Garth unearthed himself. "Dear god! Garth is huge!!!" Vanos yelled, thinking he might've gotten himself into just a tiny bit of trouble.

A dark blur shot out from around the cliff edge, grabbing the young summoner and dragging him to safety, Aurora mumbled something about idiots trying to fight powerful beings, before he dumped him down at a safe distance so he wouldn’t get killed.
He turned quickly, his eyes blazing blue, shining from underneath his hood, and his hands ignited with blue energy, waiting for this creature to attack.

The mighty turtle rose from the stone under the earth, its huge back boasting a formidable cannon. Its bronze shell gleaming brightly in the bright sunlight. He turned his massive head and looked at Aurora and Vanos. "Well, what have we here?" He asked, in a deep rumbling voice akin to an avalanch. "Ah, I see. Two powerful beings, and one a summoner I sense." He turned his great head to examine Vanos. "Why have you sought me summoner?" He asked. Vanos quickly thanked the stranger who'd saved him, then stumbled forwards numbly, and knelt before Garth. "Garth! I am Vanos Arhon, of the Arhon summoners. I have come here to request your aid. My village, Arhon, is plagued by a demonic wolf, Terris. He is a powerful ice demon, and has been maiming and pillaging the other summoners. I have been sent, as the most powerful apprentice summoner in the village, to request your aid." He looked up at Garth. "I need your power Lord Garth." Garth nodded his great head, recognising Vanos' sincerety. "Do you know what this entails?" Garth asked in his rumbling voice. "We must fight, and you must defeat me utterly, forcing me to submit to your well, less you die from the effort of sealing my spirit."
Vanos nodded his understand. "It was for that very reason that a young man like I was sent, instead of one of the more experienced old ones. They have magic yes, but none could match your strenth." Garth stretched, the barrel of his cannon extending and retracting. "Well son, I hope you give me a challenge. Its been a long time since a summoner has sought to capture me." Vanos nodded. He chanted several arcane incantations, his body quickly grew to a size of 9 feet in hight, with a massive and incredably impressive musculature. The extremely long sword in his hand now felt as though it were no more than a short sword. Garth pointed his massive cannon at Vanos. "Granite Pike!" He yelled, his voice practically causing an earthquake. A massive cone of granite emerged from the cannon at incredible speeds. Vanos jumped over it, and watched it crush the entire cliffside below him. "Yikes! I'd better not get hit!" He said.

Aurora smiled as the beam passed him, a challenge, finally. He knew his Ice and Fire magic wouldn’t work well here, so had to rely all on his holy.
He started to chant in prayer, as his halo flickered from the normal red, to white blinding light, his hands which were held out, the energy in them started to turn white and suck the life out of the air, gaining power. He crouched low before jumped and throwing both orbs as hard, at the giant turtle summon.

The cannon on Garths back rotated swiftly in Aurora's direction. Just before the two orbs connected, Garth yelled. "CRYSTALIN MATRIX!" A great wave of purple crystal covered his body, and the two orbs were both reflected back at Aurora. At the same time, Garth yelled. "MEGMA BOULDER!" And the cannon fired, a great boulder of molten lava fired at Aurora.
Vanos jumped into the air, getting in close to Garth, and brought his sword down with a massive 'boom!' which had little to no effect, instead throwing Vanos back. "Shit!" He yelled. The cannon on the turtles back swivilled towards him. "POT SHOT!" Garth yelled, and a shotgun of boulders fired towards Vanos. "Shit shit shit shit!" He chopped one in half, ducked another, kicked a third out of his way. "OW!" And rolled out of the way of a third. "Incredable power." Vanos said enviously.

Aurora’s hand shot out quickly the boulder that was sailing towards him was frozen almost instantly, as it came in to collide with Aurora, he spun and jumped bringing his leg around to kick it, smashing It to pieces. He landed gracefully and spat on the shards of ice that now remained.
“Come on, is that it?” Aurora taunted, he hadn’t thought in almost two weeks and this was warming him up, he wasn’t one to like fighting normally, but this broke the tension in his body easily.
Aurora crouched and punched the ground, ice began to spread out, and shoot out the ground at alarming speeds, it spread to under Garth, and Aurora punched the ground again, ice would be erupting from under it, its most venerable part of its body.

"An interesting if pointless tactic." Garth rumbled, the ice melting benieth his body. "I chose here to live because the magma flows below the ground keep me very warm." Garth shifted his gigantic mass, and shouldered the cliff Aurora was standing on, causing it to collapse in a spectacular explosion. He turned his cannon towards Aurora, and fire a normal cannonball at him. Likewise, he swiveled it towards Vanos and fired a cannonball at him as well. Vanos used his sword to bat the cannonball back at Garth. "In rediu enratos nien yo a'kthor reim lo garndos iem caan." Vanos chanted. His size slowly began to increase, until he stood 60 feet tall. He was still much smaller than Garth, but this certainly gave him a far better chance against the beast.
"I rarely use this spell, due to the rather distressing side effects. However, I believe this situation warrens it." He said, his voice a deep rumble. He reached out and dug out a huge piece of the cliff face, and hurled it at Garth. It broke into pieces on Garth's crystal shield, however, formidable rents appeared on the ground around Garths feet. Smiling, Vanos threw another giant stone, then jumped into the air himself, bringing his now massive sword down powerfully on Garths shell. The ground cracked and broke under his feet, sending him tumbling down into the magma streams underground. Garth poked his head out from the magma. "This just gives me an advantage." He rumbled, disappearing under the magma. "Yes." Vanos said. "If my misterious benefactor wasn't also a creature of the ice. I recognise that type of energy anywhere now, after Terris." He sad. "If you can hit him with your ice, the extreme temperature change would probably crack his shell!" Vanos yelled to Aurora.

{OOC- I am assuming Kiet will still be tailing after Aurora after The Wastelands topic}
BIC-
Watching with wide eyes, Kiet was stuck cowering underneath various boulders wile the ridiculous fighting carried on. On several occasions he had clung frantically to his staff as the shining blue-white light made a protective barrier from the immense rock chunks hurtling by. The white-haired boy felt a longing to help out Aurora in any way, but saw nothing someone as small as himself could do. He wished he could use his magic, but it was all instinctive so far, and mostly for protective and healing purposes.
As a sudden lurching sent his body, barrier and all, skidding sideways, the intelligent Kitsune realized he was being thrown along with a piece of ground. He cried out in panic, crouching and jumping out into midair to avoid being smashed, his coiled muscles shooting him clear of the soaring roakc, but also sendiong him plummeting through the air, yelping pathetically as he fell, back first, right where Garths ridiculously massive body had disappeared. All he knew was that he was falling. Another booming crash and his descent continued, though it rapidly grew hot.
"'Rora!!" he yelled with all the breath he could muster, his staff sending out a beacon of light as it shielded Kiet from splashes of magma.

Vanos cursed. "Why the hell is there a kid here?" He asked the empty air, wondering if a god was watching him. His spell quickly ended, and he shrank back to his normal size. He launched himself across the gaping chasm he'd created, and grabbed the boy, propelling himself and the kid to the opposite wall. He drove his sword deep into the wall, hanging onto it with one hand, and holding onto the kid in the other hand. "You alright?" He asked, honestly concerned. "Children really shouldn't be on the battle-field, where are your parents?" He heaved the child up to the top of the sheer cliffside, and then pulled himself up. "Anyways, I'm Vanos, and I suggest you get far away from here quickly. I-" He turned red, then turned around the threw up over the cliffside. A massive headache began to build behind his eye's. "Ouh, that's what I get for using that spell." He whispered. Garth poked his head out of the lava. "Come! I haven't all day for you!" He yelled. Vanos flinched, covering his ears. "Damn, that hurts." He glanced at the kid. "Uuuh, you didn't hear me say that."
He looked over at Aurora. "Rora right? Waiting on you buddy!" He yelled. He chanted something in vague celtic, the wind around him picked up, and he ran several times faster than normal around the crater to Aurora's side. "I'm Vanos by the way. Its nice to meet you. Now, uh, could you cool the magma? Its kinda hard for me to walk on molten lava, you understand.
