Jeluvitas was flung into the air. he reacted quickly, spearing his claw outwards onto all of the planes movement and used that as a anchor allowing him to regain control of where he went. he then activated his whip and pulled his body towards the emperor, firing his remaining two fingers on either side of him, hoping to block his movement, while bringing the whip down above him.

The Emperor looked Jeluvitas straight in the eyes and whirled left- and right to avoid being pinned. Two figures had dodged. Two Emperors stood on either side of Jeluvitas' weapons where they pierced the ground. Neither of them broke eye contact as one ignited his lightsaber and leaped up toward Jeluvitas and the other send huge chunks of debris flying toward him.

Jeluvitas was completely stunned by the two emperors. he retracted his two offensive claws in time to block the emperor with the lightsaber, but was bludgeoned in the back by the debris from the second emperor. he lost focus after being hit, and fell to the ceiling, losing control of his hand momentarily. now he was angry. he filled his hand with all of his rage, and enlarged it to as big as his body. he then used the other hand to fire a blast of lightning with the intesity of a storm at the unarmed emperor, and his sent his entire lightning hand at the armed emperor.

As Jeluvitas wasted his energy assaulting nothing, The Emperor began walking forward from the spot Jeluvitas had planned to pin him moments ago- where he had in truth been the whole time. As he walked toward him The Emperor raised a hand and began to compress the gravity around Jeluvitas in on himself as he unleashed his attack.

jeluvitas berated himself for falling for such a foolish parlor trick. he felt the pressure increase on his body, and realized he only had one choice, he redirected his previous attacks from two seperate locations, to the one true emperor.

There was a loud, distorted, moaning-like sound as the Emperor spread his arms out around him. Suddenly a mass of- what appeared to be- pure darkness manifested in front of the Emperor. It sucked in the lightning and caused the energy from the claw to begin to warp and sputter, threatening to short it out.

the claw sputtered and shorted, all of its energy drained from it. this was something that he had never heard of. clearly the emperor had knowledge that no other sith lord had ever tried mastering. what kind of power could control gravity itself? this could not be his end though. using something so powerful must take an incredible amount of concentration. an idea sprung to mind that was so crude and barbaric, it might just work. he reached out his hand and began force choking the emperor.

As soon as the Emperor felt Jeluvitas' reaching out, he stopped what he was doing and put up his defenses to ward against the attempted Force choke. The large singularity began to dissipate revealing the floor beneath which had been twisted up into it in an almost impossible manner.
"Very shrewd...", he said spitefully.
The Emperor raised a hand and sent all of the rubble and wreckage in front of him flying toward Jeluvitas.

jeluvitas was well prepared for this attack now, the effort to force choke someone was not very large. he threw up a wall of concussive force in front of him to block the debris, and reached out to the lighting in the room. there was plenty of energy just waiting to be used in the walls. lights needed energy, as did all manner of conveniences, such as heating and air circulation. he found a few choice shards of metal, and support beams around the room and ripped them out. he then began to throw them at the emperor, without actually trying to hit him with any of it, but still making them look threatening. then he reached up and drew energy out of the lighting systems, channeling it into his hand, re-enrgizing it.

The Emperor's lightsaber sprang to life as he shredded through the haphazardly thrown debris. At the same time he reached out to one of the large columns in the chamber; with a bit of effort he brought it crashing down toward Jeluvitas. At the same time he increased the gravity to both slow him down and make the column fall faster.

jeluvitas felt the gravity increase, and saw the columns. it would seem the emperor had disregarded his previous attack, but he would need to wait for the right moment to use it. he looked up, and instead of trying to escape, which would be slow and awkward, and leave him vulnerable, he created a concussive shot that passed right next to the collumns, causing them to fall between him and the emperor, rather than on him. then he slowly dragged himself out of the gravity zone while visibility was low. finally, he began sensing all of the energy sources in the room, and threw more scrap metal at the major points, exposing them without damaging them.

Seeing the column diverted, the Emperor sprinted with blinding speed toward Jeluvitas. He leaped over the column and faced his opponent. Again he brought down the gravity around him.

this was likely to be his best opening. jeluvitas activated his hand, shooting it at each of the major energy sources he had uncovered. then he chained that energy into the metal shards he had spread around. finally he sent all of those charges at the emperor at almost every conceivable angle. the total energy completely short circuited the entire palace.

As the dim, ominous lighting in the chamber went out All The Emperor saw was the glow of electricity swarming in all around him. He let out a howl of anguish as the lightning struck him. He was trying to absorb it all, but the pain from the initial shock was making it difficult to maintain the conversion. With a roar of anger he sent focused it into a single massive bolt which he blasted into the ceiling. Chunks of metal and duracrete fell all about from the sizable hole now in the ceiling; through it the moon shone bright and red- probably due to the city lights and air pollution- though ominously all the same.
As the dust cleared The Emperor stood breathing heavily, whisps of smoke rising from his charred robes.The debris was surrounding him in a circle which had been the perimeter of the barrier he had put up against it. With a fire in his eyes he began to chant something- quietly at first, but now his voice was growing into a loud wail. With the unintelligible words came an eerie light from all around; soon ghastly figures began to appear. Spirits of terrible fear and dread- screaming they began to pull at Jeluvias from all around, trying to pierce his mind with their violent and gruesome thoughts.

the spirits tore around him, scratching him and driving him mad. he began to lash out, firing concussive lightning blasts in every dirrection, at both imagined and real foes. nothing did anything. they were dead after all. suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his good arm, and a clenching feeling on his neck. he looked down and saw he was digging his claw into his real arm while it attempted to choke himself. it seemed he would die here... unless... no, it was too dangerous. but what choice did he have? he could die here, or he could live to fight again. he reached into his cloak and drew out the mask of nihlis. he put it on, and suddenly, his claw turned from bright white to a dark black. it no longer glowed, but rather seemed to eat all of the light around it. he felt a craving. he could sense every lifeform on the planet. he could see the ties that bound these spirits to this world. he reached out in the force, and began devouring the spirits. they began to flee, but he was too powerful. he ate all of them, and felt his power grow, but it was not enough. he began sensing living beings around him, and began devouring them from all over the planet, starting with the weakest, oldest, and simple minded. then he stretched forward towards the emperor. he could see his power, and how he did it. he began ripping his power from him like the threads of a frayed cloth.

The Emperor looked at him, horror-stricken. "The mask of Nihilus?! Are you mad Jeluvitas!?", he felt his own power being steadily siphoned away, "The mask will consume everything! Including you!"
His eyes darkened and he reached out, "This madness ends now!!"
Again, there was a distorted tearing-moaning sound as another black spacial singularity opened up right in front of Jeluvitas.

jeluvitas swiped the singularity aside like an annoying fly. the hand passed through it, severing the emperors connection to the force with jeluvitas' hand empowered by the mask of nihlis. he then closed his eyes and began to concentrate as he summoned a new storm. one greater than had ever been created in this generation. this storm broke the walls of reality themselves, a multidimensional storm that broke into hyperspace itself. a maelstrom. the mailstrom apeared over the palace and began to tear it apart, slowly growing in size. eventually it would consume the planet if left unchecked.

As time and space began to rend the very walls around him, the Emperor could not help but momentarily look on in awe. Not in many hundreds of years had such power been wrought upon a world...
The moment passed quickly however. He now knew what he must do. Jeluvitas may have a nearly unlimited source of power to draw from, but he did not understand the realm he was meddling in. Just as the raw power of a sun is not enough to take it across the galaxy, so too was Jeluvitas' storm vulnerable to the Emperor's will. This was his area of expertise. Long had the Emperor studied the mysteries of time, space, and the celestial forces.
Lifting his arms to the sky, The Emperor gave himself completely over to the force. He took hold of the anomalous mass while he could still compete with Jeluvitas' power and began shifting its flow and purpose. Instead of expanding it began to swirl in a volatile rage overhead.
He began to focus all that power and disruption onto one point. All around them the air began to reverberate and glow. "Farewell...apprentice."
There was a sound like warped thunder and Jeluvitas seemed to be sucked into himself within the blink of an eye.
The Emperor stood motionless for a moment beneath the now clear darkness of the night- he then picked up the mask laying at his feet and began the long walk out of the remnants of the chamber. There was much to be done.
