why do you need to do this? oi. *pulls out ion distorter* *fires distorter at alt Swarmlord, showering him in a hail of explosive laser beams* Mecs! move in! take out these Neiselheim!!! *as i say this and fire the distorter, i deactivate the stasis field around alt etg, then reconfigure his molecules so he no longer has a stab wound in his gut* well? i just saved you from immenint death-- twice. you gonna stop trying to kill me or what, you alternate nessenklem?

(OOC: I don't think my alt even has alchemical supplies, given his propensity to modern weaponry)

*zaps out of his spectral form upon being moved; the spell immediately stops*

Ow, my head. I probably forgot to mention that while in spectral form, I couldn't be affected by the combat. Interrupting such an energy-sapping spell can have unforeseen effects, too. Luckily nothing went wrong this time.

*looks around*

Hey, what do we have here?

*walks over to unconscious alt, opens a rift to the big space-time bubble previously prepared and pushes alt into it before closing the rift*

oh, alright, I've reached the Stronghold... Alt-AP is trying to find me, the air in this place is so evil my powers are being drained, I don't know what is inside there, but I guess it's the place I see in my visions... *enters Stronghold* *door closes*
dark... this place is dark... I can't see anything, I can't use my shadow powers very well... and I feel like I'm being watched... *walks through the Stronghold*

(goin to sleep. don't expect me to respond for roughly 17 hours as i have a project tommorow)

(alright...)

*keeps walking through the Stronghold until finding a long, dark, cold, scary and sinister hallway where I can hear sinister voices*
well... I have been here before... in one of those visions... *thoughts: I remember what happens in the end of the hallway...*

OOC: Alt HahiHa shares everything and needs to have some things to create his explosives.

Alt: etg's attempts at destruction are pointless as the alt-swarm has already teleported to the stronghold of the maze dimension where he readies the power source. As AP reaches the end of the hallway, he reaches a large chamber. Suddenly, a strange energy field envelops him, negating his already weakened abilities! Mechanical claws grab him and lift his more solid form into the air. Alt swarm telekinetically opens a large hatch in the ceiling, out of which, alt-AP is lowered. Then the process begins. Strange devices absorb the energy of both APs, sending the mixture to a large device which slowly brightens as the APs weaken. Soon it is done. The APs are moved to sealed chambers, weakened but alive. Now to activate the device.

Swarm: HahiHa! You're awake. *leads him to a secluded area in the terraformed land* They shouldn't find us here. You can continue. This terraforming is having a strange effect on my swarm...

Me: *Goes to the terraformed land discover by Swarm* I have a feeling one of the Alt's had followed you here to even Conquer this land and eradicate all "Original" Humanoids surviving in anywhere in this whole Universe

Alt: Muhahaha, I will blow this Land up along with you Foolish people who have been trying to ruin our plan *uses a jetpack to go high up and attempts to blow this land up with the Grenade of evil*

*Summons some guards*
Defend HahiHa. Hopefully the alt-shafaet will cause more damage to the terraformed land than us.

May I get my vodka or what?
*Loads his gun*

oh... this wasn't even what I expected to happen!

*an ancient evil monster of pure darkness appears*

oh no... I had to kill him... I would be free from this only if I killed him, I'd be back home only if I killed him... only I can kill him for some reason...

He's going to use The Device to destroy our dimension... I could change it to devastate his dimension instead...
but I can only do it, if all of you leave this dimension and lock it away, use the Lock that can Lock Everything... I managed to get it back in one of my visions, the army of undead monsters, evil beings, night creatures is free, and they will arrive soon

let me alone here... save yourselves! take Alt-AP with you, I can use a trick to escape this place... HURRY!

*gives Swarmlord2 the Lock that can Lock anything* don't forget anyone here, including Alt-AP, I have to finish this!

*takes a small grenade from my pocket*

GO! *explodes both Sealed Chambers*

*The Device is almost ready to be used, 5 minutes left!*

@armorplayergc OK then... not sure if you just did a Xcom-EU reference or not

Wow, is everyone safe yet? well... I hope everyone is safe and the dimension is locked already, ouch this is going to hurt a lot...

*tries to hack The Device to change the Dimension ID from "-12" to "-926:1"
*fails*
oh no, I have to make it destroy this dimension instead of our dimension... I can't fail now!
*tries again*
*The Device: Dimension ID to devastate changed from "-12" to "-926:1", exploding in 1 minute...*

AP! Wait! What's happening? When did I get to wherever I am?

*helps prisoners, including alt-AP, through the dimensional tear HahiHa created. Walks towards the tear but is knocked back by the Alt who runs towards the tear*

I have to stop him! Sorry AP *throws the lock at the tear and seals it*

Alt: NOOOOO! Nothing can enter or leave now! Without a world to direct the life-energy onto, it will be released completely into this dimension, killing all of us instead of bringing life. If we are to be destroyed here, beast, then only one will remain to be atomized. Ready your weapons.

*raises 4 living blades, while Alt draws 4 metal ones from his mechanical innards. Charge simultaneously, both parrying blows and slashes faster than most could with but one sword*

These blades can go through any armour

Alt: That they can but what can go through a temporal energy shield? Ironically, the answer is the very energy within that device but we'll all be dead anyway once it's released

Swarm: Perhaps I can't go through the shield, but I don't need to!

*psychically created an energy explosion within the shield but the Alt splits in two, reforming behind me*

Alt: You aren't the only one who can do that.

*fires a laser from his chest which cracks the armour on my back before I spin and block it with a living blade which promptly shatters, just as the beam loses energy*

Swarm: I don't need to break the shield to break you

*ducks under a swing and grabs an alt arm, detaching it inside the shield which burns the hand holding it and ages it to dust*

Alt: HOW?

*plunges the hand-stump into the chest of the shield, even as it begins to regenerate, and grips the Alt's head with another. The metals is torn apart ans the head removed

Alt: Congratulations. It is a shame that none will live to know of this duel

*fades away to death*

*drops the head as the habd holding it cracks and falls away*

AP! Wait for me! What do we do now? We can't redirect the life-energy to anywhere now that the dimension is locked!

The Device: error! can't explode!

*The Stronghold starts falling apart*

Oh no! we have to destroy this place, the army is coming, the evil creatures are still alive...
the Stronghold will fall apart, and it may explode The Device, destroying the dimension!

The Ancient Evil Monster of Pure Darkness: no, you aren't going to destroy the dimension! we are not locked here, there is another way out, I can teleport out whenever I feel like, remember?

*another piece of the Stronghold falls*

so, I guess that... I have to kill you...

*takes out Shadow Sword, which turned out to be a normal Steel Sword due to the loss of my powers*
*takes out Shadow Shield, which is a Steel Shield now*

*starts fighting*

The Ancient Evil Monster of Pure Darkness (TAEMoPD) : what do you expect? only you can defeat me, if I defeat you first, you are doomed! *evil laugh*

But we are not alone!

NEIGH!
