Cain felt an almost instantaneous release of his inner pain as the wave pulsed outwards before gradually dissipating into the air. His body, now free of the relentless assault, seemed to respond in kind. The Dark Side rushed back to him like a great flood, flowing through out every inch of his body and re-invigorating him as he welcomed it back with open arms, embracing the power as his own.
Slowly, he drew in a long, deep breath through his nostrils as he felt the last twinge of energy scatter through him before he calmly exhaled and opened his eyes, focusing them forward again towards where his opponent had been standing. As a great plume of dust cleared from the air before him, thrown up in the chaos as a small portion of the temple roof collapsed in the wake of his retaliation, Cain fully expected to set eyes on the charred remains of his adversary, allowing for a minuscule smirk of satisfaction to begin forming at the corner of his mouth.
The moonlight danced in the cloud for a moment, catching the dust and debris in its light, slowly illuminating the room as it penetrated through the thick pall of dirt.
Cain rose to his feet once more, his senses almost certain that he had attained victory. Yet, even as he stood, a form materialized through the shroud of dust, speaking to him as it drew closer. He instantly recognized the voice, and his expression shifted immediately, going from a confident expression of triumph, to a twisted sneer of spite and ire. The man stepped through the settling mist of dust, reaching a hand to his head in the process and lowering the cowl on his robe for the first time since their engagement.
Cain was stunned by what he saw. Revan. It couldn't be possible, he was dead, or at least he thought he was. But Cain quickly pushed the thoughts to the back of his mind. Clearly, this was only another trick by the Kumori, his mind doubting very seriously the potential fact that Revan could still be alive. Much less standing here in the same room with him. In the end, it mattered not who he was fighting, only that this man, or thing, was his enemy, bent on his destruction.
"You'll find nothing tangible about me." He said, allowing for his wingspan to stretch to its maximum width. "Kakuremino..... Moonlight."
Soon, the light in the temple seemed to intensify, becoming a blinding flare of light that temporarily obscured Cain's vision before letting up, revealing three figures cloaked in black robes, each one bearing a crimson saber with them as they bore down on him.
"We will not follow one so weak, I will instead take your place. Prepare to die!" One of the Dark Lords said, bearing down on Cain with his saber firmly in hand, the others following suit.
Cain, though he was beginning to grow disgusted and bored with these continual threats against him and the tricks of the Kumori, did not offer any words in response to the Sith facing him. Raising a hand, he sent a cascading torrent of lightning from his fingertips towards the first Sith in line. The power behind his act was not much, basically acting as a kind of "feeler" attack to determine whether or not these Sith were true corporeal beings, or just further concoctions of the Kumori practitioner's clever mind.

Elifain smirked, in the void, as he saw the spirits start to convirge on the area, and quietly slipped out of the void, behind ezekiel. He came to see his clone, at a stalemate, and quietly drew his cortosis weave saber. He smirked, and said, The failings with you sith, are they think they are invinsible.... He ended with a slash at about chest height with a lightsaber in his left hand, and a similar slash with his right hand, with the vibroblade, while his clone pushed with its strength on his frontal assult.

Ezekiel saw two Raikens "What the..." He then noticed he was being attack by both Raikens. Quickly he thought, He ran toward the clone trying to avoid the real ones attack. His lightsabers locked with the clone's fearing the real one will continued on his attack, Ezekiel force leaped off the locked lightsabers trying to jump backwards over the real one.
OOC: Ezekiel doesn't know which is real or clone but didn't want to confuse about who was where.

Raiken smirked as his opponent lept over him, but before ezekiel could completelly land, he swept his feet behind him, at the exact moment he expected ezekiel to land. He then brought his vibroblade in an arc, down, to cut the man in half, if he did fall, while his clone jumped forward, and above Raiken, with his swords leading in a flying lunge. He started chuckling, before saying, You are getting to be a good challenge.

Ezekiel raised his lightsaber swiftly blocking the lightning with his saber and continued forward, within two quick paced steps. He gave a disappointed snort in Cain's directin as he slashed his Viridian lightsaber down upon Cain. He was proceed only by the crackling of lightning against his lightsaber.
"You sorely disappoint me. I would have at least thought you'd be more of a challenge for a Dark Lord, not just some poser." said Ezekiel his slash descending upon the Dark Lord before him. The other Sith lords decided to stand back, one held a sneer upon his face, and the other looked around and used the force to seal the door to the massassi temple.
If Cain allowed himself to be hit by the blade he would feel searingpain (lol couldn't help myself there it's Cain's Aim screen name... Searingfootpain XD) like a real lightsaber had cut through the front of his chest. The illusion would be complete with the smell of caterized chest and the smell of burnt flesh, the small amount of blood from a lightsaber slash. Zilfer was pulling out all the stops on this illusion, which was the most powerful of all for unlike the shadow clones and konisu, this technice was only limited by his own imagination. The sith lord's would not disappear when hit, they would of course take damage appropriate to anything Cain did to them, but so would he. They wouldn't show up on his real body of course, but the mind could only take so much punishment.

The Sith blocked his attack with ease, skillfully bringing his blade forward to deflect and absorb the lightning.
"You sorely disappoint me. I would have at least thought you'd be more of a challenge for a Dark Lord, not just some poser." The Lord spat in disgust before he continued his advance, bringing his saber to bear on Cain, slashing down on him, towards his face as the electricity surged around his blade, snapping and hissing.
Cain allowed for a feint smirk to form on his lips. His tactic had succeeded in letting him know exactly what these Sith before him were capable of. The response and reaction to his attack was such that, in his mind, he allowed for the illusion to take hold, permeating his consciousness. At least in this way it would be easier to fight against the odds knowing that the threat of tremendous physical pain was a very real possibility.
"Poser? No, a mere test. A test you have passed with ease, and that you shall now die for." Cain retorted, an air of confidence in his words.
Acting quickly, his expression becoming cold and emotionless as he moved, Cain stepped swiftly off to his right side to dodge the blade as he reached out with the Force in one hand and applied an invisible, vice-like grip to his enemies wrist, attempting to ensnare his saber wielding hand in a spectral vice that would slowly smash his bones to nothing under the sheer pressure he was exerting through the Force.
Part of him wanted to end this fight quickly, but the other part of him held a sick desire to toy with his foes before he broke them.

Ezekiel spun around and force push himself up so he wouldn't touch the ground, coming at the Raiken(clone). He spun again facing him and attack locking thier blades once more. Using the force and a twist of the wrist, he cut Raiken's(clone) leg and then he faded away. Stunned he landed on his feet gently. He face Raiken(real one) "I'm glad I can please you. I must admit your tricks...are unkown to me, I find them fasinating." Ezekiel nodded his head at Raiken as he lifted his lightsabers in a defensive position.

The form of Ezekiel felt his wrist being held in one place. The only thing Cain would recieve was a quick follow up, for Ezekiel assumed he was faster and stronger then Cain if he was retreating and using force hold tactics. He however hadn't stopped his other hand which whipped out in a back hand motion to Cain hoping to catch him straight across the jaw.
"The force may be strong with you, but the Darkside is stronger in me." said Ezekiel as Zilfer continued the illusion in truth he could score hits on Cain easily enough but that would not make the illusion real enough for him to disregaurd Zilfer's sudden disappearance. Currently he was evaluating and wearing down his opponents mind. It was impossible to kill anyone with this technice, but he could inflict pleasure, pain, or any form of senses. He could call forth imaginary ghosts, sith, Kumori, Jedi, even a fleet with this. As long as Cain didn't get suspicious he wouldn't try to break his hold too soon, but either way Zilfer hoped that he will have worn himself down by then.
Back in the real world the room still seemed completely empty save for Cain standing their with his own eyes closed stuck in his own mind, and currently unware of his perdicument.(i'm assuming form your post you choose not to have him realize it? Sorry for all of the explainning in post, but i figure i'd inform you about the move so you dont think i'm cheating if i do something more drastic.)

ooc: not giving a chance to avoid, eh? lets see how ya go when you have to say right or left one is the real one. since now ya wouldn't kno bic: Raiken smirked as his clone was dispatched, and quietly conjoured up another one, right next to him, and said, This could turn out even better than i expected. He and his clone charged, passing one another at intervals, to mix up which was which, and both attacked, a vibroblade, and a lightsaber, hitting upon Ezekiel from either side.

OOC: my bad...again. I did the same mistake as Gamov did. Didn't know it was up to you if the clones gets destroyed I thought u gave me the ok since you told why I didn't destory the clone.
bic: Confused at which was the clone, Ezekiel smirked at the comment. Ezekiel blocked both attacks but unfortunately was pinned on both sides. Both Raikens fiercely held him. Ezekiel growing angier used the force to push them away with his lightsabers. Being freed a few inches he flew out of his enemies's grasp. He turned and landed low and seemed if almost bowing before them. He switched the form of his lightsaber, now both held backwards at his side as he crouched.
"Well well, everyone I fought before were weak. Hmph maybe I was overconfident about this fight." Ezekiel made a X shape with his lightsabers in front of him in a defensive position. "But I'm a Sith Lord, and through the darkside I will conquer all...who are in my way."

ooc: here is where the fun stuff happens. should never block a cortosis weave saber, with a lightsaber. too bad it tells you which side i am on. and luckily for you it is only a few seconds of a short. bic: The left hand saber, blocking that side raiken, suddenly shorted out, on contact with the Cortosis weave vibro-blade. The two blades continued on their path, as the right hand sided Raiken laughed, You said it. The left hand raiken said, as he was pushed back a few inches, before charging again.

Ezekiel saw the short out, he slowly standed up not wanting to attack as least not yet. He grinned closely watching them making sure not to lose sight on which was real.

Raiken (left side) smirked, and stalked in, knowing that Ezekiel would have his attention on him, while the other one, (the right side) started circling behind him. As they did, Raiken(left side) dropped into the void, leaving a perfect clone of him, which would not be noticed from the real, holding his weapons in its hands, and it continued to stalk in. Lets see if that confidence is well placed, shall we? They both said in unison.

As the Raikens cicrled around him. He knew now that they waited for him to attack. Ezekiel not wanting to bend to their will nevertheless gave a exotic display with his lightsabers as he slowly walked to the temple watching them knowing they would not let him in. He would not slip up not again.

The raiken with the real weapons watched as ezekiel tried to go towards the temple again, and didn't make much of a move, as the right hand raiken moved to intercept him, and slashed with the two blades again. No running, the left hand one said.
