"That is the plan. Glad to see you finally getting serious."
As his lips drew shut and the vocals ceased, the puppet held up his palm, another wall of Spiritual Energy forming as the bubbles ran into the surface, popping and dispersing whatever effect they each had along the ground in front of Pain. Ragnarok on the other hand, didn't move. He stood still, his eyes following the bubbles that aimed straight towards him. Once they got within 15 feet of his person, a sudden blast of Corruption Energy shot from his form, creating a spherical dome that spread out to cover the surrounding area, including most of the arena they stood within. As the dome of energy touched each bubble in turn, they were turned a sudden blackish grey color, and popped all of their own accord, disappearing harmlessly within the air. As the dome continued outwards, it not only popped the bubbles that were aiming for Ragnarok, but most of the other bubbles within the arena as well, leaving most of the space open for movement once more.
Right after, two things happened simultaneously. Dinok Krezah was released, and Pain began to absorb the Natural Energy from the air and earth around him. Ragnarok began by speaking a short and silent incantation over the weapon, a sudden burst of energy ripping through the area as the weapon was covered by a sudden crimson aura, that protruded half an inch or so from the snath and blades. No other changes were visible, the length and blades stayed the same, and all that changed was the aura of the weapon. However, a faint feeling of danger was now felt wafting from the weapon, as if someone's natural sense told them to stay away. Meanwhile, the Natural Energy began to pool itself within Pain's palms, a faint green hue visible forming in his hands.
Once the balls of energy were the size of a tennis ball, he throw both his palms forwards and slammed his palms down into the ground. Upon touch, the Natural Energy seeped into the earth and a deep rumbling began. Ragnarok remained where he stood, holding the Released form of Dinok Krezah within his palm, while the earth began to crack and break from Pain's control of the Natural Energy. His palms stayed steadily upon the ground, as the earth began to erupt in a straight line heading towards Los, the ground rising up into the air as shards of rock and dirt broke off from the rising tower of earth and shot towards Los, at speeds fast enough to rip through his physical form.

"Why do people always pop the bubbles?" Los said disapprovingly, "They're just bubbles." Seeming to want to prove his point, a bubble collided with the back of his head, serving to soak him further. Now Los was a heavy sleeper, but being repeatedly bombarded by cold water was enough to wake even a dead man, and he was no exception. For the first time this fight Los peered out at his surroundings through a pair of hazel lenses. He watched as the arena shifted from the green meadow that he had previously made it back to the original dreary arena that they had started in, and once he saw the gap between his feet and the ground he began to fall.
Just before Los experienced life as a pancake a large sphere of wool shot out and surrounded him and cushioned his fall. Once stabilized the wool retracted, leaving behind a slightly confused Los and a small sheep. Before Los could properly get his bearings, the sheep released a small ball of wool that floated in front Los and expanded to make a wall. Each shard that struck the wall stopped dead in its tracks while simultaneously causing the wall to grow larger and larger. If one could see at the molecular level they would notice that as the shards came in contact with the wall, the molecules changed from a state of motion to a state of rest and due to the second law of thermodynamics transferred that lost energy into the wool.
Once all the projectiles had been stopped, the wall shattered into hundreds of smaller spheres of wool and spread out much like the bubbles had been before. They did not bounce about however and instead just floated in place. Another swatch of wool detached from the sheep and created another wall in front of Los, hovering between him and Ragnarok. Feeling safe enough, Los began to sing,
"Rock-a-bye baby, on the treetop, When the wind blows, the cradle will rock, When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall, And down will come baby, cradle and all."

Watching with small curiosity as the arena returned to normal, and the man began his fall, the sheep brought a brow loft to the man's features. As the rest began to unfold, Ragnarok wasted no time. Upon noticing the first shard hit the wall and fail, he reached within his being once more, in order to use Temporal Energy. Slowing the entire arena down to 1/4 of it's normal physical speed, he left their minds completely untouched. Including his own body, the body of the puppet, as while as Los. They could all three think, and comprehend at normal speeds, but their muscles were reacting extremely slow to any commands.
Thus slowing down and elongating the time it took for Los to begin singing his lullaby. The shards slowed down dramatically, so that when they came in contact with the wall, they were already near frozen, but Pain soon began to use his Particle control once more, and turn each shard of rock into a liquid. It was all within his mind, thus he wasn't slowed from being able to. Upon contact with the wool wall, the liquid began to soften the wall, causing it to become wet and thus shrink, or just collapse entirely because it is unable to keep its normal dry state.
The moment the first wall was gone, the freeze in Temporal Energy was ended, just as the second wall was created, and the singing began. Ragnarok wasted no time, once more reaching deep within, to access a dangerous energy. Phantom Energy. His control had never been perfect, and it was always dangerous to use, but he was never afraid of it. Using the Phantom Energy, he altered reality in his surroundings. He was able to break and recreate the laws of physics, momentarily. With this, he altered his position, suddenly appearing on the other side of the wall. There was no movement, however, or any form of speed. He simply existed in point A one moment, and then existed in point B, the next. His senses allowed him to know exactly where Los was on the other side of the wall, thus he was able to swing Dinok Krezah in the right direction, instantly, in time to interrupt the lullaby, as his travel had been instantaneous upon the start of the song. However, the scythe never actually came into contact with the wall.
The ability of Dinok Krezah upon release, allowed it to pass completely through objects as if they were not there to begin with. It just ignores them completely, as if they both existed on two separate plains of existence. Thus his weapon would not be frozen upon the wall, but pass through and continue seamlessly to take Los right in the hip, cleaning him in two. As he did so, the puppet of Pain began to gather Natural Energy from the surroundings again, continuing to pool it all within his being, saving it continuously.

Despite Ragnarok's creative response, there were two major flaws with his plan. The first being that something interesting happens to a liquid when its molecules can no longer bounce about and that is that it returns to a solid state. This means that when the recently liquefied spikes met the wall they returned to a solid state and dropped just as if they had never been liquid in the first place. The second issue is that even if Pain had somehow managed to keep the spikes a liquid, wool fresh off a sheep is different than wool clothing. The major difference is that because of a secretion from the sheep the wool is actually nearly waterproof and any liquid that does get to the wool is harmless. Wool fibers are made up of scales that all point the same direction naturally which prevents shrinkage, it's only when it's made into clothing that the scales are reversed and water damage can occur. That's enough of a biology lesson however. This does mean that despite his efforts, Ragnarok was unable to halt the creation of the wool spheres that littered the field. And when he charged at Los, these spheres converged onto him and would absorb his energy leaving him a sitting duck. Some of the spheres would dart towards the puppet that was stockpiling energy and attempt to do the same to him. The wall would also charge forward, at the very least forcing Ragnarok back and allowing Los to finish his song.
Should Ragnarok make it to the end of the lullaby he would find himself drained of all motivation and forced into a deep slumber with no hope of waking up.

Even if the wall was still able to retain its shape, Pain's absolute control of Particle Control allowed him to keep the spikes in their liquid state, dampening the wall instead. Because of the liquid state of matter, the wall was unable to absorb as much energy as it could have from the shards of rock, so there were not as many balls of wool spread throughout the air.
As Ragnarok's travel was instantaneous, he still formed himself on the other side of the smaller wall of wool, but the moment the balls of wool began to swarm towards his position, he set a small dome of Corruption Energy to surround his person, which broke each ball of wool down to it's most basic form of matter and energy possible, leaving it useless, while his eyes turned cold and sudden irritation began to cover his features.
"I've had enough. Pain. Jewels." As he spoke, the wall of wool began to shove towards him in order to knock him back. His hand lifted faintly, palm outstretched as he vanished once more. Using PE again, he transported himself from in front of the walls trajectory, to behind it. Standing now with nothing in front of him but Los and The Sheep, Ragnarok swung Dinok Krezah again, aiming to cleave Los through the throat and interrupt him once and for all. Should that attack miss, however, his left hand gathered a small ball of the whitish energy from earlier, shooting it at the ground right between Los and his Sheep, to cause a large explosion that would blow Los off his feet from the shockwave.
Just as Ragnarok got rid of his portion of the balls of wool, the puppet suddenly threw his arms to the sides, palms spread and upturned to the sky, as the Natural Energy he had absorbed up to that point pooled into his palms. It then changed from energy into two separate balls of flame. In his left hand was a ball of white incorporeal flames, and in his right a ball of black corporeal flames. For the first time, the puppet spoke. "Diamond. Obsidian. Burn." The moment the balls of wool converged upon his form, the flames both shot from his palms in small licks of fire, spinning around his body to create a shield, with two separate purposes.
Each time the white flame touched the balls of wool, they targeted the basic matter of each wool ball, down to the smallest molecule, burning it out of existence. Each time the black flame touched the balls, they targeted any astral like energies that may have been left behind to still cause harm, burning them out of existence. Afterwards, the puppet slumped over faintly, but the field had been cleaned of the balls of wool.

This has obviously died, and obviously isn't going to finish, so you can go ahead and take this man. Even though it won't really matter, cause nobody seems interested anymore.
Good fight.
