Weiss stopped beside Tracy and slid his icy blue eyes to him, "You might want to help out...if you don't want to get erased. But...why listen to me? After all...we're only here to kill you all for good." he folded his arms and a cold smirk spread on his lips. "But...since when would you listen to directions, Tracy."
Shrugging, Istar unfolded a single black wing from his left shoulder blade. "Ready then? Carrying you chums really wasn't on my to-do list, but hell...if I gotta. Nova's wating for us. Us...and Alice."
Angeal brushed them aside, "I have powers...ones the Goddess gave me. Thundara Materia." He lifted his arm to show a glowing orb infused inside his arm. "Let's go. I know a few of the Sirens."
The Seraphim smiled and her wings turned visible. Six of them. One set crossing at her ankles, another framing her face and the last just like a pair of normal wings at her back. "Then let me teach you. Join the Summer Court and you'll learn many things beyond what you already know." Kiel ran after her, "Alright, alright, if you don't believe me, that's fine. I barely believe myself. But...I've never met anyone else here. Maybe he just...knows me from family? He smiled, "Plus, if you hadn't noticed, you're very beautiful Tori. Say...where'd you get that ribbon?" He motioned to her wrist and the pale blue ribbon there. Ren stopped in Kaila's doorway. "Kaila...Elena told me you were there that night... You shouldn't have seen that like that. I know it's not pretty to see someone fight, and I apologize."
Angeal was about to jump up onto the dragon when a burst of white light emitted from his right side. "What the...!" A white gossamer wing broke through his shirt and spread wide, "Holy...Goddess..."
Valentine snarled at the Players, "I don't care who started it. Get it done!" His worry for his brother burned inside him. Weiss smirked at Valentine's temper and spotted Senri behind the Players. He stroad forward towards the Players.
Enoch settled beside them and dribbled water into her mouth. "Come now...drink up little pact maker." Xenree responded well, reaching upwards for the water. "Orias....I'm going to run out of time... I have f-five hours...left."
Valentine narrowed his red eyes at Weiss and snarled, "Chasing Senri again... This is starting to get annoying. Either way, Hana-Kaida, what's going on here?"
Angeal sighed and put his sword away, "Hmph, you should've just said so. Oh, that? It's nothing...ignore it...but don't linger too long. Fairies may protect this forest, but there are other things here as well. Our lovely Goddess Yggdrassiel cannot hold back all the evil in this world." He took a few steps backwards and folded his arms. "A dragon...perhaps you would give me a lift to the desert seal. My name is Angeal Hewley, the Goddess instructed me to protect the seals. She's in pain...I must end her suffering."
"Wh...who?" Xenree struggled to stand and fell backwards and tumbled down another steep slope of sand. Enoch froze, "This is Xenree? She is not well...her life force borders on the edge of time...between immortality...and death. Is she the one in a pact with Crowley?"
Angeal shot from the bushes, his sword drawn, and skidded to a halt near the little group. A flutter of little wings and three fairies settled on his shoulders. "Who are you? You linger in the forest even after the seal is broken."
Weiss ignored the exchange between Hitoshi and the Player. He'd spotted Valentine and a broad smile covered his face, "Hello Valentine Hitachiin. It's good to see you." Valentine stopped in front of him and met his icy eyes, "The pleasure is all mine, Weiss. Where is Senri." He waited for an answer and all he got was a shrug. "Senri...is careless, leaving him alone too long and he'll get himself into a problem that involves him breaking rules." Senri poked his head out from behind a building behind a few Players. He could see Valentine and Weiss and the others beyond them. Crap...I'm so dead. Weiss...you sick freak.
Lynne snorted, completely unladylike but she no longer cared. "So that's it huh? The sins of the mother become the sins of the daughter? Your sons...have more honor than you!" Lazard stared at her with cold, dead eyes, "Take a look at your new scars. They'll help you remember why I'm also going to send you into a place where your friends will go after you. To kill them all." Glancing down and lifting her shirt, Lynne's eyes traced along the even longer red lines, stapled shut, that ran from her belt line to just below her collarbone. "What...did you do? Wh-what...what's inside me!?"
Istar gave him a confused look, "Used to? Well damn, can't you remember?"
Kiel frowned, "Alright...I didn't go to class today cause...Gabriel is a suspect in an investigation I'm doing. My mother told me my father was an archangel that taught here. The only males I've encountered here have been Gabriel and Ren." He shifted from foot to foot, "As for people telling you you shouldn't be around me...I've no idea. I don't know anyone here. Maybe the guy just has the hots for you Tori...jealousy will make a man do crazy things." Sanya opened her eyes and scowled at Gabriel, "Don't you Dilly-dally-shilly-shally me, Gabe. I'm not wasting time brooding like Ren or you and Uriel. I...don't know what happened." "You passed out, dear. Again. In the middle of your class." The Seraphim of the Summer Court passed by Schuyler in the halls. Her broad, white wings glowing with summer's warmth and heat. The passed through Schuyler's wings easily and warmed her. "So you're...Schuyler, are you?" She turned her face towards her, her hood pushed back to reveal her lovely sun-kissed face and bright blue eyes that had dolphins swimming in them and sun-bleached blonde hair, "How would you like to join the Summer Court?"
Xenree struggled up, her mind fuzzy, and shot a bolt of dark lightning through the dune, striking Enoch in the shoulder. Enoch retalliated, since he didn't know what Xenree looked like, "Stay back Erik!" He released a wave of the blue energy and watched the tattered Xenree weakly attempt to dodge, only to be hit by the aftermath and flung backwards.
Angeal watched the others fight futilely for the seal. He still didn't have enough energy to fight back successfully. Touching a gentle hand on the broken seal, Angeal felt his Goddess cry in pain. "Bear with me Yggdrassiel...I will protect you. Enlisting aid will be helpful. Guide us." He bowed his head to the tree and left.
Angeal relished the feel of the wind on his arms and the fair folk's whispered words about his hair. A few of them liked it. For some reason. "It's nice...to see the forest without blood covering it. The Goddess works in many mysterious ways." He continued until he reached the seal. A larger than normal tree surrounded by beautiful white flowers. "Beauty and perfection...always. Just like M-- Yggrassiel." He stopped himself from calling the Goddess by her first name. It was odd to say it aloud.
The twins were hustled from the hospital, each of them smiling and waving goodbye. "We did our job. Now it's time for...CAKE!" Lynne felt a vibration inside her and froze. "What...was that? What did you do to me?! Who are you!!" Taking a deep breath, the man pushed away from the darkness and into a light, "My name is Lazard. I believe you know my sons...Demitri and Ryku? I left EBO a long time ago to exact my revenge. Lynne...your mother and your sister, are dead...because of me. My wife was a beginning soldier...and they killed her. Leaving my sons to me. You've no idea what it's like...so now...you will know my pain."
Oddly, Weiss closed his eyes and sniffed, "They're on their way. Either way...if this is apart of the Game Master's current game...I doubt any Players will make it through." Valentine started to run towards Dogenzaka, feeling the urgancy to find his twin.
