Ark 23 Episode 36: A Warrior's Resolve....Entering Suzume's Dreams

Legend of the Dragoon
Kin: Kin had been at the hospitals. Not a word had been spoken and he seemed to be in his own zone. With his expressionless face. He seemed distorted uneasy and somewhat not in his right mind. They had hauled Suzume off to a hospital after the Festival event and Kin hadn't spoken a word since then. It was stated that she was in a coma that had been beyond there medical means and that it had been out of there power. This just meant that Zeus had indeed cursed her. And he knew this. With a stern expression Kin looked over her sleeping form and remained silent. His Butler had been there as well. Standing by Kin's side along with Taco, and his Cousin Turner. "She's like... Sleeping beauty. All she needs is her prince charming to kiss her so she can wake up." Taco said to Kin jokingly trying to lighten the mood but Kin responded with silence. His eyes dead set and focused on her own. He had no tears to shed, he had shed all of those for Keyomi. He had no will to cry, sadness had been devoured by anger and anguish. He didn’t want to belly in sorrow. He wanted revenge. He wanted to Kill Zeus. Placing his right hand on Suzume’s hand he clenched onto it tightly. All he could do was think about all the times he had told her to stay away from him. To leave, he blamed himself for this. And it was his fault after all. Kin has stated several times, to have an awful luck. He always carries misfortune to wherever he goes. He was told at young age he was cursed, born under a really bad star. Inugami keeps the entire human race at a distance mostly besides Suzume and a few friends. He doesn't like to get involved with anyone's lives nor does he like anyone getting involved with his, as he believes it will only bring them misfortune. Her father had been there, along with Keyth and friends. Keyth had been heavily injured himself. His right arm in a sling and cast as he stood on the opposite side of the bed.

Meanwhile ……

Hades had been in one of the long hallway like corridors that Sector Olympus had. Waiting for his brother Zeus to show up from his little temper tantrum. As he walked by Hades, not a word was said until Hades smirked and pointed at the back of his brothers’ head. “Was that truly necessary brother. Did you have to do that? Did the Mortal get under your skin hm?" "Quiet Hades. I did what was right; they will now know that we mean absolute business in our conquest for this city. Once there out of the way you know the plan. We get the Shards of Nirvana and the rest of the Olympians get there power back so we can storm the Gates of Fumei and get our revenge on the Shinto gods. These mortals are simply a stepping stone. Don’t tell me you of all people Hades are getting soft. "Zeus said walking off and away from his brother. His cape like clothing flowing in the wind. "Oh...Not at all brother. Not at all..." Hades said smirking as he shifted into the shadows and dispersed completely.

Suzume: It had been one hell of a show to say the least as Lian walked away with many from the crowd. Like them she had witnessed the power of Zeus, it had thrown her off seeing Akira Tetsu up there on stage with all the other fighters. Did he honestly think he could do something to help? Then again how well did she know this guy? That was easy to answer she didn't know shit about him other than he pays well. There were many people standing around crying holding family members, some on their way to whatever religious place of worship they thought might protect them. However Lian knew better, wasn't nothing gonna help them. They were basically fucked, why sugar coat it with fancy demonstrations and parades. Zeus came in and already fucked up one of the fighters without barely lifting a finger. She assumed Akira was strong but could he really make a difference? Lian decided in her head the best thing to do was find a decent bar, numb all of her senses with copious amounts of alcohol and possibly do something fun. There was a karaoke bar around here somewhere she thought to herself. She slipped her heels off; weary of walking around in them. Reaching into he purse she pulled out a pair of flats and started heading to the bar. Glancing back one last time towards the stag where Akira had one been standing, she wondered what he was gonna do with these last hours. It didn't take her long to tell herself it was none of her business and move on. -====-

Moto sat in a chair just outside the hospital room where Suzume laid in a coma. Misaki sat next to him holding his hand tightly as her son slept his his head resting on her lap. The whole scene had played in his head several times, watching Kin and another boy demonstrate their fighting abilities, thinking about how strong both young men were. He had actually felt a twinge of pride towards then soon to be father of his granddaughter. However in an instance the festivities came to frightening halt, and now his daughter.... He didn't want to think about it, he wanted to find this Zeus character and rip out his spinal cord through the back of his skull for touching his baby girl. Whatever this.... monster did to his daughter... he was going to regret it. "Moto... she'll be fine. I'm sure the doctors will figure out something." Misaki said in a reassuring tone bringing him back to reality. He sighed what could he do against some supernatural being, he was just some long washed up yakuza thug that was better at pushing pencils than punching faces now. He looked over at Misaki and squeezed her hand, "I'll be back hun." Misaki nodded as Moto stood and went back into Suzume's hospital room.

In the room were various people, a nurse writing down reading from equipment a couple of Kin's friends who he assumed were Kin's right hand men within the clan. Kin's father Keyth, who Moto had grown to respect both of them growing up in District 1 and having to fight their way out of it, and some others that Moto wasn't familiar with. Moto grabbed a chair dragged it across the room and sat it next to where Kin was sitting next to Suzume. Clearing his throat, he kept his eyes forward on Suzume in the bed. "Kin, I'm not gonna sit here and tell you everything's gonna turn out right cause honestly I don't get any of this super power shit. And I can say, I've been very leery of you Tasanagi. But for some god damned reason... my daughter loves you with every fiber of her being. I know I don't have a chance against that son of bitch that did this to her. But I know you have a chance Kin... whatever's happened to her is connected to him I just know it. So Kin.... I want you to find him.... and make him pay for what he's done to her. I can't touch him, I know my limitations as just a mere human. But you have a power Kin that I could never fathom, so you find this Zeus mother fucker.... and you make him wish he had never even thought... of touching her. I'm putting my trust in you Kin, I'm trusting that you love her as much as she loves and trusts you."

He stood up from the seat, "She's my baby girl Kin and there's nothing... that is stronger than a bond between a man and his little girl... you'll understand that a bit more when your own comes into this world. You'll know that first moment you hold her in your arms and look down into her eyes. Please... take care of Suzume." Moto took his hand off of Kin's shoulder and went back out to Misaki. She looked up at him and smiled, "Misaki you should take Takeo home so he can get some sleep, you should too." She looked concerned "What about you?" Moto nodded, "I'll be fine, my place is here with Suzume...until she wakes up." Misaki nodded, picking up her son as she stood up. The little boy stirred briefly but soon rested his head on his mother's shoulder and went right back to sleep. "I'll come back later on today, bring you something to eat." She walked over and kissed him on the cheek "Your place is here, but my place is with you. So well be back before you know it." Moto hugged and kissed her before she walked down the hall and stepped into an elevator. Moto sat back down in his seat and put his face in his hands.

Sian: "Mom why in the hell did you stop me?" Sian asks her temper nothing short of an inferno while pacing about the hospital's waiting room Moko standing to the left of her with both arms folded over her chest. The mother of three opting to ride with Kin in the ambulance while Sian rode with the head priestess of the shrine with Suzume. "Listen here girl, I did not come back from the grave just so you could take my place you hear me." Tomoko tells her the same fire that burned in her daughter's eyes striking firmly in her clear ones. "But I could've saved her." "No you couldn't, you’ve would've ended up just like poor Suzume if not worst for interfering, and then what? Sian I have told you a thousand times that you are not invisible. Even with Suijin inside of you. You can still be beaten." “And how would know this Okaa-san without first letting me try.” The 19 year old girl would growls irritability at her mother's words memory of having watch both of her friends be man handled by Zeus while she could do nothing to prevent it due to hold Moko had on her. "Ooooo I can't stand this..." Sian shot off outta her mouth as she turns on her heels running down the halls of corridor in order to find Kin and the others. "Sian?!" Moko called out to her but it was too late she was gone. “Little girl I swear you’re every bit like your father.” She’d think herself remembering the days when Akuma would just blow off the handle for no reason at all. A woman’s voice suddenly calling out "Tetsu-san?" while she was in midst of her thoughts. Moko would turn her head in the direction of it her eyes taking note of the woman who still dressed in some of the most exquisite kimonos she'd ever seen before, her brown hair pinned up elegantly upon her head, glasses upon her nose, and some very expensive geisha shoes with eyes like the sea. This woman of course being none other that Sayuri Asahina, the empress of Japan herself who’d rode in with them in trucks after the incident at the matsuri. "With my doctrine degree I was able to convince the head doctor on duty to allow us to see them though for how long that I do not know." Tomoko would bow graciously to Sayu the relief in her expression more overly expressing her gratitude to the woman as she went on to express it in words, "Arigato, your grace. You don't know how much this means to us especially my daughter should apparent run off some where." "Not at all I only wish I could do more, and don't worry about your daughter Tetsu-san I’m sure that with any luck she's probably already there waiting on us given her strong attachment to the young Tasanagi and his mate," Sayuri would reply giving the woman a reassuring smile before doing a quarter turn to the left some what before beginning to walk down the hallway in order to lead Tomoko to the room where the others were the now golden brown haired woman following her with ease.

As predicated by Sayuri, both women would see her daughter standing on the outside the room that Kin and the others were in as they turned the corner of the corridor, fighting passionately to keep the tears that were developing in her eyes from running down her cheeks as she look hopelessly in at Suzume through the glass windows. Though outside Sian could hear the older male that with them talking to Kin telling him to get the one that did this to Suzume and make him pay. Something Sian hoped that Kin would do as she utters the words “Suzume I’m so, so sorry.” Moko would hear Sian say this out of the blue sorry being the key word for a it was word none of the Tetsus used…at least not sparingly any way. So indeed this must be a serious offence in Sian’s eyes Moko noting going towards her child in an attempt to comfort her. But again Sian wasn’t having it as she moves away from her mother’s grasp still feeling her partially responsible for what happened in this matter as she reaches out her left hand towards the door knob of the room, turns it towards right in, draws the door back, and proceeds to enter it giving only Taco who she was familiar with through her days of being with The Syndicate back in grade school a quickly wave of with her right before going towards Kin. Sian could see that there were other there two of which were a blonde hair male and an older woman whom she didn’t know. The older male she knew as Su-su’s father having met him and her mother after dropping her off at home after wild night at Club LaHana. She greeting him only with a soft but subtle smile before returning her attention back to Kin who was being…well Kin self loathing and all. “Hey there, long time no see. How’ve been?” She begins in hopes it would at least get him to kinda start talking and shift the tide just a bit here, her eyes shifting between him and Suzume laying there in bed beside him. “How’s she doing?” If Kin were say something back Sian would kneel down beside once she was close enough to the chair he was sitting in telling, “We’re gonna get Zeus for this and get Suzume back okay. I’ll help you all I can.” Attempting to place a hand onto his right shoulder and reassure him that everything would be okay while both Sayuri and Tomoko looked in from the outside at the two. “I least owe you that much for helping to avenge my parents deaths.” Tomoko of course surprised to hear this as she assumed that her debt to the Tasanagis was over with the return of the Kagemaru funds to its rightful heir.

Sian's words hit him but he hadn't spoken. He didn’t want to talk. His need to had been diminished and he didn’t want to say anything to offend anyone. Kin listened to Suzume father’s words and he kept his eyes on her. Simply responding with a "Yes Sir..." He said in his calmed tone before he stood. "Please stay with her." Kin said to her father as he leaned his head forward and kissed her on the forehead. "See Taco..." Kin said pulling his head back. "I’m no Prince." He said making his way towards the opposite direction where the Hospital doors had been. But as he made his way to the door, a Man with a mask on, his body claded over in some form of Chinese styled martial arts attire, although his massive form protruded so heavily for all to see, so that he was easily distinguishable. Basically, he stuck out like a sore thumb.

Kin: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXppB54ZxbQ&list=PL75640023843F2ACA&index=2 ) " ...And you are? " Kin said staring up at the Masked Man who simply turned his head down to look eye to eye with the Young Tasanagi. He seemed so opposing even as he was now. ( http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/scale_small/12/126716/3451913-thunderer.jpg )" I am, Tao Law. Sent by the one you know as Xiao Lee. I have been Sent here from Xiao Lee's school called the ' Ancient Dragons '. Me and my brother Wei Sung. " Kin remained silent and turned his attention back to his family and friends before Keyth stepped forward. " I called him; I told him what was going on here. And he said he'd send his best here to assist with the situation. He says that he has people in his school known as uh. Dream walkers. " " Dream Walkers? " Kin said in response to his father only for the masked man Known as Tao Law to speak again. " Yes. Have you heard of The Dark Zone? The Dark zone, a central hub for all dimensional rifts that lead to other lands or worlds. The Gates that lead to the Shinto realm in District 4, are linked to The Dark zone, however on private servers. The Original Dark Zone is a dark city that looks like an Anti-Kasaihana city, its forever night and twilight chi lingers within the air constantly. It is habitant by the Killian race, a race of people who once tried to over throw The Shinto Gods in Fumei but ultimately lost in the long run. Humans do not have the technology as of now to physical make the transport to the original Dark Zone. So they'd have to be summoned there. Through the Dark Zone, a portal lies there known as 'The Central ' Or what those at the temple call ' The Apex Void. ‘It is also known as. The Dream world. This is the only plain of existence that the Olympic god known as Hypnos owns. And is where this young Ladies soul is being held captive..." Tao Law said with his thundering voice. "Her soul has been trapped there, given to Hypnos by Zeus whom laid the curse onto her. Out of the Gods, Hypnos is the only one who does not exist on our Mortal Plain. And we believe he is trying to gain entry into this world again through the child. “He said pointing to Suzume’s stomach.” It is a child of flesh Oni blood. And is a powerful asset to any demon or entity seeking a way into our world." “So it means to enter through my child..." Kin said staring This Mysterious stranger down. He simply nodded his head. “I have been sent here, to bring her out and back into our world before this occur completely." Tao Law walked over to the window in the room and continued to speak. " In its raw form The Dream world is a twisted, frightening world of dark rock and raw chi veins where it is always night. Gaps between dreams are such void places. An island a shadowy metropolis with twisted spires seems to be the only constant feature of The Dream World, always on the horizon. The Dream World may appear as something else entirely when shaped by dreams. Much of the Dream World is split up into fiefs or demesnes belonging to the spirits or demons that live there, and they change the landscape of the Fade to emulate what they see in the minds of mortal dreamers. They copy locations, objects, people and concepts of the real world, often in a cruel or confusing way. These copies are nowhere near consistent, and fluctuate according to the movement of the dreamers. Spirits whose realms are flocked with visitors rise to rule great portions of the Dream World, while memories and concepts forgotten in the real world slowly drift away back into the ether, the spirits who ruled them losing all potency. Suzume may be trapped in one of these worlds where she may not be aware that she is in Hypnos grip within The Dream World. However... as long as she is in Stais. He will continue to feed on her soul so that he may enter into the child."

"How were you able to know these things…" Kin retorted back. " At the School of The Ancient Dragons. Master Xiao Lee has something that he likes to call the 'Intervortex Locator. ' When something of beyond this world Occurs... then we are always the first to know. However we may not always act on it. IN this case, He demanded that we do." “And how are we going to help her exactly..." Kin said clenching his fist. " ...I must enter through her. With the Ritual of the Nine. The Nine Dragons of Gaia ritual. It will allow me entry through her mind as the gate way into The Dream World Where I may be able to recover her. " Kin remained silent as he looked back at Suzume. " Alright...then lets get to work then. " Keyth said nodding his head. " The unfortunate part about this is... that the procedure takes a toll on the User and...can possibly kill the one who forces themselves into the Dream world without going in through the conventional way of sleeping. The Ritual allows you to be awake and thus gives you an upper hand there." “So your saying you might Die…" Keyth said clenching his fist. Tao Law nodded once. “Yes." He said staring the young girl down. "But anything so that Hypnos will not come to our plains. He is an even bigger threat then Zeus. This must be stopped now." "Then I'll go..." Kin said turning back around to Suzume. “Wait... What!? KIN YOU CAN’T! WHAT IF YOU DIE!" Keyth said shouting at his son. Kin simply walked over to Suzume's sleeping form and placed his right hand over her head. " ... This is my family dad... I have to protect it." "DAMN IT KIN... You cant... if something happens to you. Like it did with your sister I don’t know what I'd do..." "Father. . . This is my family. That’s my daughter in there. And if I don’t do this...Were going to lose her like we Lost Keyomi. Your going to lose your grand daughter..." Keyth was stunned at Kin's words, turning his head swiftly to the right as Kin began Closing his eyes as he recapped on what her father had just told him. ‘Kin, I'm not gonna sit here and tell you everything's gonna turn out right cause honestly I don't get any of this super power shit. And I can say, I've been very leery of you Tasanagi. But for some god damned reason... my daughter loves you with every fiber of her being. I know I don't have a chance against that son of bitch that did this to her. But I know you have a chance Kin... whatever's happened to her is connected to him I just know it. So Kin.... I want you to find him.... and make him pay for what he's done to her. I can't touch him, I know my limitations as just a mere human. But you have a power Kin that I could never fathom, so you find this Zeus mother fucker.... and you make him wish he had never even thought... of touching her. I'm putting my trust in you Kin, I'm trusting that you love her as much as she loves and trusts you ' ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_YMKrh7jYs ) “If anyone goes in there to bring her back, Let me do it... I got her into this mess. Let me fix it..." Tao Law crossed his arms and looked over at Keyth who didn’t protest. " ... Lets Begin this thing. If I Die. Dad Fight in my place." Kin said gripping Onto Suzume’s hand. " Im gonna get you outta there baby..." Kin said with a smile on his face... Taco and Turner both smiled and so did his brother Sora. "YEAH GO GET EM BOSS!" Said some of Kin's men outside of the door. Tao Law placed both of his hands up as he did. "There is one final catch. As I open this rift into her mind. . .A rift will open somewhere near by where an Oni will No doubt take his time out of the gate to wreak all Kind of Havoc. Those here...if able. Must assist me in making sure that this Oni does not kill the Innocent once the Ritual is over. Do you all Understand? "

David vs. Goliath
Yumi: The events that transpired the other day had put things in a bit of perspective for Yumi. One minute everything was fine, the fighters were demonstrating their powers and the next, the all mighty Zeus makes himself known by attacking Kin and Suzume. She’d remember Kin at the last minute as the man who had questioned her about Dog bite a while ago back when she’d first met Connor. His mate was now in some sort of Coma and last she heard the hospital was doing everything they could to wake her from it but she knew…a curse like that exists even in this realm. She would not wake up until Zeus has fallen and with the sector games nearing…she’d wonder if it was worth the fight. It wasn’t a game anymore not some fighting event this was…survival. A war right here and it just reminded the fighter of the horsemen…it didn’t matter how many times warriors would come to defeat evil, there would always be someone to take the bad guys place but so long as that happen it was their job to do the right thing. The right thing…..Yumi pauses in walking. She had changed into clothing that wasn’t ripped to shreds from Connor going in on her. She places a hand over the hickeys on her neck and gazes slowly up from her spot. The park that was right beside the festival gave her some room to think…it was peaceful with the moon beaming down on the Halfling to give her some clarity. After trying so hard…trying to show him how much she loved him even after all this time he still wanted time? He still didn’t know who he wanted to be with? Crying wasn’t going to change anything, throwing a tantrum couldn’t change things either so she just sighed and brushed bandaged fingers through long locks of fiery red and found herself a seat on a bench. The park wasn’t full of man made things…it was more a nature walk way for joggers and dog lovers. Trees placed all over the giant field of lush green grass with a walking trail made of cobble stone…The smell of the park filled her nose and she exhaled steam from her nose. What was….she going to do now? Certainly being Connors right hand would be awkward if he returned with his ex…but she loved the Shinpaku federation, she worked hard to do her job correctly and King promised her a spot in the syndicate…she’d proven herself many times and still it wasn’t good enough was it? Blue hues gaze up at the star filled sky as she tries to find constellations to distract her but no matter how hard she tried she couldn’t push Connor out of her mind. “Keyome…do you think I should have just stayed in the dark zone? Was I…am I no good here? Kevin needs to move on and he is a hero first…Connor wants to be with his first love…” She was talking out loud, hoping somehow the powerful man could hear her and give her some advice as he did many times before. But to no avail…she was alone. Before she’d met Connor she was alone and it wasn’t so bad! So why…this time around…did it hurt? Getting annoyed by her bitching and her pity party she blows a flame from her mouth and growls. “Fuck it.” She didn’t need anyone then she doesn’t need anyone now. Brushing off the ash from her hakami pants she stands and continues dusting off her green and gold vest, accidentally touching the emerald necklace Connor had given her in the dark zone. She stops around the gem before tugging it until the chain snaps and she brings it up to her face to examine it. “Hm.” Without hesitation she tosses it to the side, uncaring if someone else finds it as it lands on the cobble stone and bounces lightly before resting lifelessly against blades of grass.

Sian: Sian looked to Kin softly a part of her wanting to say more than she had though in this matter she knew it could either be taken good or bad as she hadn’t been the best of friends to either one of them during their time in knowing one another. Her own vendetta for cops after learning that Kin was on the force from Akira causing her to push Kin away and her own pregnancy causing her to leave to Kasaihana in order to avoid conflict with her parents preventing her from even contacting Suzume to see what was up here in the city. A part of her felt well…ashamed that she’d let personal feelings get the between the bonds they once had. As the words “Yes Sir.” Finally fell from his lips in response to what Suzume’s father had said earlier Sian watch Kin as he stood upright bent over Su-su’s sleeping form and kissed her brow softly before telling Taco that he was no prince pulling away from her in order to make his way towards the door. On the outside of the room Sayuri and Tomoko would take note of a strange man making his way towards them wearing a mask, his body claded from head to toe in a Chinese marital artist ensemble, his massive form revealing itself for all to see. This of course prompted the empress to attempt the use of her soul sense in order to determine if indeed this person was a physical or supernatural threat to those that were around her to which Sayuri concludes that he is neither. While Tomoko on the other hand starts to take a step towards the individual only to see Sian moving from her bended knee position in order to follow Kin towards the door. Both mother and daughter eying one another auspiciously wondering just what the hell the other was going to do once Kin begin to converse with the stranger who called himself as Tao Law, a student of Xiao Lee’s school of the Ancient Dragons causing the young Tasanagi to look back at the others as if to ask “alright who told him”. Sian would shrug her shoulders and shake her head saying it wasn’t her as she’d only heard stories of her ‘Uncle’ Xiao she’d never really seen the guy before though from the look she’d gotta from her mom’s face in the form of a smile from relief the raven haired beauty could gather that this guy most certainly wasn’t a threat and could be trusted. It was then that another’s voice stepped in, it was no other than Keyth Tasanagi himself, kin’s father admitting that he’d was the one who told Xiao of what was going on here and of the students there who were known as ‘Dream Walkers’. “Dream Walkers?” Tomoko would ask out loud unintentionally alerting those besides her daughter and Sayuri of her presence (if any one notices). Something that made Sian immediately face palm herself with her left hand as her mother was supposed to be lying low since no one knew yet that she’d been revived from the dead yet. (Sayuri knows but isn’t saying anything) Sayu would explain, “Yes I have heard of them, they are rumored to be able to walk between worlds much like those of ancient Native American shamans except their world is called the City of the Night or Dreamland for lack of a better word.” Listening carefully there after to Tao’s explanation in regards to the Dark Realm. A place the Sian herself knew all to well from having visited herself when killed and sent there by the Horsemen of War and Death. And course she knew of the Killian Race and there story too having heard it from the Queen of the race herself. “I know of it,” Sian states making eye contact with everyone. “I got sent there during the fight with Horsemen, along with Brick, Connor, and other girl. A Keyome Tasanagi runs the place along side its queen, Nocturne. It how we got our hands on the Nullifier he gave it to us.” Tomoko’s eyes would narrow acutely upon hearing the word Nullifier from Sian’s mouth, her mind flashing back to the words Mad Dogg said in regards to using the very same device to strip her and Akuma of their omega genes before murdering them in cold blood walking over toward her daughter to give her a forced sorta hug as she lower her head to ask, “Is there anything else you’ve neglected to tell me about dear?” through gritted teeth causing the 19 year to look at her mother with more fear than she’d ever have for anything or any God for that matter as Tao continues to conversate with Kin explaining just what exactly Zeus has done and just what was going on. All of it involving the Olympian Hypnos the lord of dreams and his accept to enter this plane through the baby Su-su was carrying. This giving Sian a major case of the creepers as the conversation went on to explain just how in fuck’s name they would be able to retrieve her soul and the consequences of the person who dared to enter within the dreamscape world in order do this. Kin of course volunteering himself to go into the peril “Wait….pause…nuh-uh there is no way that you are going in there alone kid, Su-su would kill me…if something happened to you. Either you let me go or it’s no deal.” Sian tells him pulling away from Moko not really giving a damn if her mother agree to let her go or not to which the seemingly 19 year looking brown haired woman herself appeared to want to protest but suddenly hearing Claymore’s voice say to her, “It’s time to let her go now, Tomoko.” ‘I know old friend….but it’s…just so hard to...’ She thinks to herself looking at Sian closing her mouth slight as watches her daughter become a woman right before her very eyes in trying to help her friends. That is if Kin would allow her to in the first place. Tao would go on to explain the consequences of opening the door for the teens, "There is one final catch. As I open this rift into her mind…A rift will open somewhere near by where an Oni will no doubt take his time out of the gate to wreak all Kind of Havoc. Those here...if able. Must assist me in making sure that this Oni does not kill the Innocent once the Ritual is over. Do you all Understand? " Sayuri would step forwards right hand leveled at her side the spiritual powers of an magenta like pink gathering strongly at their fingertips as the sword she was upon her waist during the festival slowly begins to manifest itself into its palm before clasping its hilt. “An oni you say then perhaps I and my blade could be of some assistance to you Tao, I am Sayuri Asahina a member of the oni slaying clan the Takageuchi.” She informs him as Tomoko again is stunned to learn that the Empress is of THAT family. “I am sorry Tetsu-san if you believed I have deceived you but know I mean you or those of oni and onihoruda blood here no harm, you all have fought to protect mankind and therefore are in no danger from me and mines. However this oni that is coming won’t be as fortunate.” As she waited to see if any more would join them in this battle.

Meanwhile back the Temple Grounds……..

The matsuri, despite the sudden appearance of Zeus and his attack on Kin Tasanagi and his mate still continued some in higher spirits than others. Domini still dressed in her sacred garments and jewelry on the other hand stood outside in the garden area of the grounds looking up at the moon offering silent prayer to the guardians in which she were to call upon in the mist of the thousands that were gathered here earlier on in the evening. ‘Please great guardians of intelligence, speed, passion, and wisdom through me invoke the power of your blessings to those that have chosen to go forth and fight Sector Olympus for the sake of us all. Guard them, protect them, and be with them in days that are to come’ she would plead into the night the wind picking up just slightly around her carrying with it parts of her kimono. At this point of the evening the moon was at its highest peak its light intimately kissing her ivory skin making Domi appear as she too were a regal lady, a deity from long ago in the eyes of any (if any) who were looking out at her. In was in this state of endless prayer that Aki had returned from his search for Keyth having not found him any where in the area in which Zeus had flung him although from the looks of the destruction and given Keyth’s hard head as Densuke had so politely put it. The elder Tasanagi appears to have gotten up on his own and walked away unscathed which is more or less what the Emperor could say about the man’s son as he dismounted his horse in order to make for the main house in order to gain information as to the whereabouts of his wife and child. To which the young ruler was told that his wife was still at the hospital with Kin while his daughter was outside in the garden locked in what the maid called a staring contest with the moon but Aki knew better. Domini was praying and doing so with all of her might so they could have the victory against that…that beast that dared to show himself here tonight so he decided to leave her be for the moment. But just because Domini was in the garden didn’t mean she was alone as the young miko could feel with her soul sense the presence of someone else lurking close by….

Kin: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCoqdCjzFV8 ) Kin turned his attention over to Sian and then back at Tao Law. "..." His golden eyes slanted and then he'd smirk, Crossing his arms before nodding his head. “Sian... You understand that it will suck away at your life force upon entry.” Tao Law said to the young lady crossing his massive arms as well. "Let her come." Kin said smirking turning his back on the situation. "TURNER, TACO!" “Sir!" They both said as Kin called there names. He tilted his head up at the window. “Help them fight the Oni when it gets here. " Kin gripped onto the Medallion that his mother had given him and for the first time he felt like it meant something to him. “Alright... Im ready. Lets do this thing." "Then Let us begin. " Tao said as he took a few steps back and charged his chi within his hands before he placed both of his hands up. Walking over to Suzume and writing the Symbol of The Dragoon on her forehead. “The Gateway. "He said to everyone. A Glowing Dragon symbol illuminated from her head for all to see as he took a few steps back. Doing swift hand symbols, using to what may call Ninpo. Ninpo (忍法 Ninpou, Ninja Arts) are the spiritual and mental arts of the Ninja, performed through techniques, normally accompanied by hand motions and chanting. It is a spiritual power that only highly trained Ninja can use. These arts are so powerful that an inexperienced Ninja would be overcome by their own spell. However with Tao Laws long studies back at the School of the Ancient Dragons for the last 500,000 years. " No turning back Sian..." Kin said glaring at Suzume. Tao Law continued, He has this Art mastered completely. His hands moved swiftly symbol after symbol! ( http://media.giphy.com/media/kMEVRSFceaZQA/giphy.gif ) " NIN! " He said as his eyes began to glow a bright green and with his glowing hands he placed them both on Sian and Kin's foreheads. " INTO THE VOID! " He said as he shouted at the top of his lungs. Kin and Sian's eyes would have both began to glow as well as there soul's literally passed through out of there bodies and into the symbol made on Suzume’s forhead. Both of the Teens bodies would have went Limp into Keyth’s arms as he caught them both.

" It is done... " Tao said as he stepped to the window and stared out at a Vortex Opening on the Outskirts of the city. " There... out in Kasaihana's deserts. " He said pointing outwards. A Black hole would have appeared and what came out of it was MASSIVE! " EVERYONE... CLOSE YOUR EYES! " Tao Law Demanded." TAS, MAS, FEI, HEI, HAN! " Tao Law said doing more signs with his hands before a giant light flashed over the city. Everyone in the city had saw the flash of light, dazing them for a few moments before they continued on. "I have made it so that the Inhabitants of the city will not see the beast as it enters the city. They will be Oblivious so long as we keep it out." Tao Law said as he pointed at the Window. Keyth laid the children down and made his way to the window. "Here it comes..." Tao Law said. And as he spoke it came. The massive deity leaped from its hellish place and landed right in the desert area. It stood taller then any building within the city and was hellish in mass. ( http://naked-science.ru/sites/default/files/Pacific_Rim_Kaiju_Monster_Concept_Art_14.jpg ) "... Tch..." Keyth said as he summoned his Yamisuki into his hands. His eyes slanting. ".... I haven’t seen you in sometime. Kaitian." Keyth said in reference to the Oni. Keyth opened the window and with all of his might he tossed his Yami Suki about 40 feet away from where the beast was standing. " Everyone who's coming along, grab onto me. "Keyth said, and as he spoke. Tao Law, Taco, and Turner grabbed along, as everyone else did as well. Keyth would have then shifted them to where his sword had been with some of teleportation technique. "..." He looked up at the Oni with a scowl. “Someone of you... May die. " Tao Law said as he took a few steps from Keyth. "D-DIE?! " Taco said pulling his hair. " I-I-I-I DONT WANNA DIE! " " Shut up Taco, No ones going to Die. " Keyth said swinging his blade around a few times. "EVERYONE... ON ME! " As he shouted everyone would have gotten into some of combat stance. " Lets.." ( http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/square_small/14/148920/3024531-avsx-012.jpg )

Meanwhile... A loud crunch could be heard from some massive being stepping on her jewelry that she just tossed aside.

( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ot0ePPXsweQ ) “GIRL... WHORE...OF CONNOR RYOJI..." The Beastly Demi God's voice boomed out towards the One known as Yumi as it would have seemed like he had appeared from literal nothing. "... YOU ARE TO COME WITH ME... NO NEED FOR YOU TO PROTEST..." Hercules said as he tilted his head up staring the young girl down. Towering over her completely. ( http://radicalpublishing.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/herckush211.jpg ) " ... MY FATHER... IS ON THE RIGHT PATH IN TERMS OF BATTLE STRATGEY..." Hercules said walking towards her. " ...TAKE OUT THE MATE...AND WATCH THE BETA MALE RUN IN CIRCLES FOR HIS MESELY TAIL." Hercules said as he pulled one of the blades from his waists and tossed it to Yumi's feet. " I AM WARRIOR OF HONOR... I WILL ALLOW YOU TO DEFEND YOURSELF IN COMBAT IF YOU PROTEST IN YOUR ABDUCTION MORTAL. " He said walking towards her. If Yumi didn’t decided to defend herself he'd attempt at grabbing her by her red locks of hair and using his inhuman strength to toss her into three trees, toppling them over.

Yumi: The sound of someone crushing the necklace catches her attention and she frowns, turning around in time to watch the massive Demi God approach her with a thunderous boom of tone. “Whore of Connor Ryoji.” She looks over her shoulder and then back at him before smirking slowly. “You’re kidding, right?” Please tell her this wasn’t what it looked like…please, Alah, Satan, Santa clause! Let this not be what she thought it was aiming for…. “YOU ARE TO COME WITH ME” And there it was…why did she get kidnapped? She listens to him talk and doesn’t speak, merely giving him a ferocious curl of her nose, eyes narrowed in defiance. There was a dragon like growl that rumbles through her chest as she parts plump lips to expose sharp canines and an orange glow in her mouth that let out an unsettling heat his way. “Ryoji is not my mate.” She stopped herself though…she was trying to explain her relationship status to an enemy? No, it didn’t matter he wanted a fight, no point in telling him otherwise as the sword is tossed her way but she lets it fall uselessly to the floor. Pupils narrow into slits as he makes a move to grab her but she blows steam in to his face that extended a couple feet apart more to surprise him than harm him and ducks his advances, throwing herself forward and rolling on her shoulder only to jump back up and undo her bandages, flames igniting from her wrists down to the tips of her fingers as she roars at him in a warning to back the fuck away from her, the gusto of her bellow could shake the ground beneath their feet. But this opponent….it looked like a step forward could do the same thing…he had God written all over him but she didn’t know who he was, she’d never met any of them before…until she realizes what he said. ‘His father??’ She could take a guess and connected the dots on who Connor was going to fight as she snaps her jaw at him. “Hercules. Kidnapping someone your enemy cares for? You are nothing like your legends tell…and copying Daddy to what? Get his approval?” She mocked before trying to decide what to do next….this wasn’t good! Regardless of the training she received from Keyome, this was a Demi-God but she’d prefer to die than have Connor have to come to her rescue. Attacking him head on was worthless, he was the definition of a warrior, combat ran through his veins and she tries to assess the situation but hesitation of any kind was a death sentenced so without over thinking she shifts in to a blur, shooting her foot off from the ground and heading right for him in a feint cobra punch, her elbows tucked in before cocking the right one back as if aiming for his ribs but just as easily as she got into this position it changed in to a spinning back fist aimed to the other side of his ribs, her feet trying to make quick work of keeping up with any counters he might have…after all, his objective was to catch her though she was sure he wouldn’t be opposed to taking her in pieces.

Kin: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ne-vSCj8p8 )Hercules watched as she evaded him and he stood attentive as she readied herself. He sized her up, by now he knew how fast her heart beat. His trained battle ready eyes could see every muscle move, his ears picking up as her muscles would flex and relax. “Sweet on the eyes and a Warrior. " He said as he took a step forward. “And to answer you Mortal... You shouldn’t always believe what you hear. Those Shinto Gods, they stripped my people of any bit of dignity we've had. So don’t blame us or me for our actions that we take out on this world. You should be happy that someone like me's even in your presences Mortal." Hercules said as he watched Yumi attack him, he stood there smirking. Having sipped of Hera's breast milk as an infant, Hercules gained mystical invulnerability, making him extremely resistant to physical injury. He is capable of withstanding high caliber bullets, falls from great heights, powerful energy blasts, and extreme temperatures and pressures without sustaining injury. He is also capable of surviving, unprotected, in the vacuum of space for a long period of time. His resistance to injury surpasses that of any other Olympian god with the exceptions of Pluto, Neptune Zeus and equaled by Ares and Athena. " Foolish girl..."He said when the back fist hit after her other set of attacks he would have simply gripped her wrist that she attempted to back hand him with. Once and if his right hand had gripped onto the limb he would have began a slow crushing process by churning his hands left to right. In attempts to shatter her wrist into Bone Meal. " Your brave I give you that. But Bravery child is a one way ticker to DEATH! " He said attempting to launch her 20 feet into the air with that same hand. Taking the blade off of his wrist once and if he had gotten her airborne and then attempted to toss his blade at her in hopes of impaling her through the stomach if it hit.

Yumi: Her wrist is caught and she reacts accordingly as her dragon half awakens and her form begins to shift, scales spiking out to protect the flesh and change it into a hard dragon skin which was almost impossible to penetrate, her bone density had increased since discovering her dragon origins going along with her peak human endurance so while it was still painful his attempt at churning her wrist into dust, it’d take a little more effort than that as she’s launched into the air, his blade following swiftly behind. The fighter cuts through the current of wind as she tries to push the pulsing hurt going on in her hand as it pops a little but now was not the time to care as she begins to fall back down, the weapon coming right for her but she doesn’t panic if anything she focused harder as more of her dragon releases, generating a long scaly tail with red fur lined along the base, aiding her in balance before flames shoot out from her feet to push her out of harms way and dodging it. The tail catching the hilt of the sword before it could completely pass her as she blows an inferno and lights the weapon on fire just to send it shooting back to Hercules in a sharp and fiery spin. All the while her feet slowed down her fall until she could land roughly on the grass, setting the field a flame before motioning her hands out in a fluid motion to control the fire and bring it up in a giant circle to protect her in case he dodged his own weapon and came for her. You could see the fighter through the blaze, the heat waves radiating her image though nothing was as heated as the glare as she calls out to him. “Do not take out your problems on me, Hercules. Whatever it is that happened to you most certainly has nothing to do with me and I refuse to be anyone stepping stone to get to their goals.” She was no longer human looking, her appearance was beastly to say the least…those scales had grown and covered her sides, her legs and arms down to her knuckles, coated in green and extremely solid to the touch. Her teeth had sharpened into fierce canines and her eyes once blue now shifted to a golden color with pupils in slits. http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/yakuza-mob-roleplay/images/d/df/207c4879d9dbfda0fe8095e29bbf7feb.png/revision/latest?cb=20150418235717 Her tail curled beside her in heightened alarm as she stays on her guard, uncaring if the once beautiful and peaceful park was now turning into a battle field and burning around her. She didn’t want to fight him this wasn’t her fight, it was Connors. Her dragon powers weren’t as strong in this realm, not like the dark zone…she wouldn’t be able to keep this up forever but she’d hold off for as long as she could she would fight and resist until this bastard takes her kicking and screaming.

Kin: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVKZWfewrYU ) As she boosted over to dodge the blade with flames from her feet. Hercules had already been behind her the moment she sent the blade back down towards him. He would have blasted off the ground with inhuman speed as he attempted to slam his knee into her stomach so strong that a sonic boom would echo throughout the area, her stomach folding over his strike so that it'd feel like her insides churned even with her incredible density and resistance to pain. He was half a god all in all. The power of the strike would leave her dazed and crushed, what followed behind that strike had been a double handed strike into her back with the same level of explosive power that would have caused a sonic boom once and if it had connected. To finish it off he would have shifted her over while they both had still been in mid air With both of his massive arms he'd hook them around her waist in attempts of pulling her above his head for a deadly power bomb! A power bomb is a professional wrestling throw in which an opponent is lifted (usually so that they are sitting on the wrestler's shoulders) and then slammed back-first down to the mat. The standard power bomb sees an opponent first placed in a standing head scissors position (bent forward with their head placed between the attacking wrestler's thighs). He is then lifted on the wrestler's shoulders and slammed down back-first to the mat. A prawn hold is commonly used for a pinning power bomb. Power bombs are sometimes used in mixed martial arts competitions, when a fighter attempts to slam another fighter who has him trapped in a triangle choke. In professional wrestling, it is also sometimes used by a bigger wrestler as a counter to an attempted hurricanrana by a smaller wrestler. While it was associated with super-heavyweight wrestlers. The Impact would have been so powerful that it would have broken them down into the sewer systems deep down within the city. Once and if it all connected he would have stood, towering over the Dragon red head snickering to himself. "... Hmph. " Snatching her up by her hair, once and if he had been successful he'd hold her above his head smirking with his right hand. ( http://i.minus.com/iburA05mhvuCEa.gif How it looked ) " Heh, Heh, Heh... "

Sian: "If I'm going to die then why not do it why helping to save my friend." Sian tells both of them knowing that up to now she's been doing nothing but saving her own skin and not giving a damn about anyone else. "Let's get this show on the road." Listening to Kin bark orders to the other two that were with him as goes to mother for a quick hug. "I love you don't forget that and tell dad the same for me when you find him if I don't make it back." "Proud of you ya hear me." Was all Moko could say hugging her baby girl back before allowing her retake her place besides Kin. Her moon blue eyed looking back a Suzume's sleeping form as if to say goodbye one last time. 'Hang in there Su-Su were coming for you' she say silently to the girl turning her attention back towards Tao as the ritual begins the symbol of the dragoon showing itself vividly on Suzume's forehead as his massive frame steps back his hand doing what most would deem fire signs in Shinto priests context or ninpo. A style Siam was vague with but had heard of many times during her training with several masters. As his chi intensifies the 19 year old would het Kin say, "No turning back Sian..." "Wouldn't dream of it Tasanagi, we all gotta go some day it might as well be doing what is right." She tells him with the same smile on her face as the first day they met as the master before them was reaching the pinnacle of the ritual his hands starting reach speeds that even Sian herself couldn't even fathom. The words, "NIN!" Coming from Tao's lips his eyes alight with a bright green glow along with his hands as they drew near her and Kin's foreheads before the words, "INTO THE VOID!" were heard by the raven haired girl before the world went all black around her. Leaving her body to fall where ever the chips may or in this case right into Keyth's arms as her soul was made to pass right out of in and into the unknown.

"It is done," both Sayuri and Moko would here Tao say Sayu suddenly feeling on coming force if oni energy beginning surge down onto the city as predicted. "Its coming everyone." She'd exclaimed moving quickly towards the window in order go let her own sea green hues see just what the fuck they were dealing with but what emerged from rift made from sending Sian and kin into Suzume's mind was unlike anything most could image. "Oh my god!" Was all the came out Tomoko as she looked out with the others. There out in wastelands beyond Kasaihana was a demon of epic proportions wreaking havoc at its own leisure! "EVERYONE...CLOSE YOUR EYES!" Both women would hear Tao Law say both doing as he says before hearing the massive giant call out several words before a massive light envelopes the city, dazing all saw it and then like that it was gone and life continued on like nothing had even happened. "Impressive." Sayuri says moving towards the open window Keyth had opened up once the children were lain safely out of harms way, measuring the distance between where they were and creature. Bah no good she'd surmised hearing Keyth call the beast by its name. "A regular thorn in your ass I take Tasanagi-san?" She'd asked going towards Keyth holding onto him with ease while other either stayed back overdramatized about die to which Sayuri finally let the Akagi humor out on, "we're all scheduled to die any how by the hand of Olympians, might as well fuck some shit up on our way out." As the other quite possibly joined them as Keyth got into his stance. "As for me I don't plan on dying not to the like of that." Sayu goes on go say placing her blade away any others as they all prepared to confront the beast.

Kin: Hercules was much too fast, even with her draconic speed…she was no match and this fight was over way before it began. It was over the moment he approached her. But no one could say she didn’t try…He was no longer in the spot he once stood; no he was now right behind her! Her eyes widen and she tries to react but it was no use even as she threw her arms out in an X form to block the knee slam, it did nothing and her hands along with his knee strike into her gut and she throws up saliva and blood. The next strike hits as well and she is rocked to her core, trying to snap out of it but it didn’t matter as the next assault is a hell of a power bomb, his thighs squeezing her neck as she struggles but doesn’t break free and they go soaring back to the ground in an explosion of a landing! The ground beneath them is demolished and Yumi found herself in the sewer, slumped against the concrete….even with her strong scales and dense bones she was in unbelievable pain…it was because of those traits though that she didn’t shatter everything in her body and break her neck….she winces when her hair is gripped on to and shes tugged up to face him. Her eye was swollen shut from the debris cutting into the side of her face and there was dirt and water covering the fighter as she growls uselessly at him, dribble of blood falling down her chin to the ground. She doesn’t say anything to him, maybe it was because she was saving the air in her lungs to breath as it hurt her ribs to do so or maybe there was nothing she could say…defeat was a terrible thing to admit to but even worse? The reason you were defeated in the first place…all of this to kidnap her and use her as bait or to be spiteful….all because of Connor. They weren’t a team…she was just a woman he fucked that felt she deserved to be by his side…and though she tells herself it was pointless, the faithful and ever loyal dragon could not stop herself from being a ride or die as she glares at Hercules. “Kill me. I….don’t want….to be used against him…” She didn’t want to be the reason why Connor gets hurt or worse…she wanted him to fight with a clear head…to get this bastard back properly…not because of her. Her dragon appearance began to fade as her aura died down as she started finding it difficult to stay awake, her head pounding from the concussion and her body’s natural defense to keep her alive begins to play, a blue flame igniting softly around their mistress in an attempt to try and heal her little by little.

Kin: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8wgcWty67A )" Foolish girl... you haven’t seen what I've seen. What the fates have told me of you and that stupid Ryoji boys future. I've seen it all. " Hercules said holding her up sending a punch into her stomach once more to add insult to Injury. " Now... Call him..." He said holding her up. “Call him so he can watch you get taken by me. When he fights, he'll do so blindly. And I'll have the upper hand. Now...Call him..." He said using both of his hands in attempts to crush her skull just enough to cause pain so that she'd do as told." CAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL HIMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!" He said shouting in her face.

Yumi: The flames ignite further when she is punched in the stomach, coughing harshly. The cool sensation trying to heal her was soothing but it was too weak to do much…they were beginning to die down as she glared at him weakly. The pressure on her skull was beginning to prove too much for the tough girl as she feels a pulsing pain going through her temples. “Now….call him….” “Kill me…” She said again, softer. He was not a patient Demi god as he roared in her face to call him!! So much so that her hair would get lifted off her shoulders but she just defiantly stared him down. “If you need…an upper hand…than you and I both know you were destined to lose..” She spits up some more blood, giving it a foul look before trying not to let the pain of her head being crushed get her to falter. There was another reason she wasn’t calling for him…her pride would not let her. There was no fucking way! Death would be what she welcomed…nope…not happening…she would not…Hercules yells at her, booming to do as she is told and she grits her teeth. She was tired of this bullshit… “F-fuck!!” Her flames burst in a fury of blue! It gave her the strength to scream as she could hear a crack in her skull. “DAMNIT! CONNOR! I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU LET THIS ASSHOLE GET TO YOU ILL KILL YOU MYSELF!!” She struggled for air but she continued. “CONNOR RYOJI!” She could feel the tears pricking the corners of her eyes as she wanted to give it all up….everything. “I’m only…calling you…to say good bye.” Don’t fight him because of her….don’t do it for her. She didn’t know if he would even hear her! She didn’t know where the hell he was, this Demi god just wanted to see her break and if only he’d just end it….death….anything was better than this!! “Don’t come!! Don’t do it!” She screamed but she was losing her voice as she weakly reached up to pry his hands off of her head, still fighting with the little bit of resistance she had left.

Welcome to Dreamland
Suzume: (( http://youtu.be/j5neENdAKRU)) She could hear rain just outside the open window as she awoke. Beginning to stir she began to stretch and move on her futon. The quiet sounds of birds chirping in the forest around her home always made her feel at peace. She soon sat up in bed and stretched, "What a strange dream..." looking down at her stomach. "There were so many magic things." Chalking it all up to her active imagination she stretched again while running her hands over her ears on the top of her head then through her long white hair. (( http://i.imgur.com/n11ZdZx.jpg)) It was time to start the day, soon dressing, and making her way out of the small home she shared with her parents and going to the shrine they cared for. (( http://i.imgur.com/OAlylRUl.jpg)) Standing out front sweeping the leaves way from the steps was Kisami. (( http://i.imgur.com/j1FCLTN.jpg)) The young miko smiled "Tsukiko, so you finally decided to wake up. About time... your parents have already gone to the village to greet the visitor." Kisami was like an older sister to her she had been brought to the shrine when she was only four years old by her parents to be trained by Tsukiko's mother as a miko. Tsukiko looked down at the ground, "Why didn't they wake me when they were preparing to leave?" Kisami chuckled a little "They know how hard you've been training at night, and wanted to make sure you got enough rest. They decided not to wake you so early this morning."

Tsukiko nodded, "It's been so difficult lately, the forest has become so over run with demons. Moto and I have been so busy.... speaking of Moto have you seen him?" Kisami shook her head, last I saw he was sniffing around your parents as the were packing the cart for the journey. No doubt begging, that wolf of yours, he can be such a spoiled brat sometimes. You're too lenient with him Tsukiko." She smiled, "Its so hard for me sometimes he looks at me with those adorable eyes and it brings me back to when he was just a pup and I can't resist his charms." Kisami shook her head, "See that's exactly what I'm talking about you let him manipulate you. Well you better get going if you want to catch up with your parents. Here I have something for you." The young miko set her broom aside and walked towards a simple wooden bench near the shrine. Tsukiko could smell the food inside the simple bundle, but beside the bundle of food was a basket with a blanket in it. "Kisami... what's that?" Tsukiko leaned in closer sniffing the basket, then saw as the blanket moved.

She shot back in surprise and Kisami laughed. "Well I guess my little trick worked, why don't you lift up the blanket and see what's in there." Kisami's sky blue eyes had a sort of mischievous twinkle that made Tsukiko wonder what she was up to. Despite this curiosity got the best of her and she lifted up the blanket. "Awww... she's adorable." (( http://i.imgur.com/AlP89Ozl.jpg)) seeing the markings on the young pup the reality of how important this pup was made Tsukiko excited. "Is she... what I think she is?" The small pup stretched in the basket, then used her back leg to scratch behind her ear. Kisami nodded, "Yes, I think so there hasn't been one born in quite some time. Well since Moto of course." Tsukiko reaches down and scratched the little pup behind the ear. "Well little one... let's see if we can come up with a name for you. Hmmm... I got it! Let's call you Keiko, what do you think of that!?" The small pup Yipped and rubbed up against Tsukiko's hand. "I think you should take her with you... tame her and... give her as an offering of good faith to the important visitor in the village. I'm sure he would be honored to receive such a special animal. Perhaps he might even grant a blessing on the village? Can you imagine how proud your parents would be?" The wheels started to them in Tsukiko's head. "You're right, that's a great idea." Kisami smiled, "Good, means I can get work done without having to deal with a pup under my feet. I made sure you have plenty of food, with Moto you shouldn't have to worry about keeping her fed. Also the reason you couldn't smell her was be cause of the herbs I put in the basket. It should ward any evil demons away from her, she's very important so you want to keep her close to you." Tsukiko nodded picking up the blanket from the basket, making a sling that went across her chest and put the small pup inside. The young wolf pup soon settled and laid down in the swaddling. (( http://i.imgur.com/zFqJMagl.jpg <-kind of like this))

Suzume: After a few more preparations and Kisami fussing over her several times Tsukiko was on her way heading to the village hopefully she would meet her parents along the way. As she was passing under one of the gates however a bird dive bombed her head. Apparently there was a sparrow with a nest near by that wasn't happy with Tsukiko's closeness. (( http://i.imgur.com/5OK36Ysh.jpg)) "Hey now you don't have to worry about me In don't want to hurt you baby." The sparrow dive bombed her again then landed on the path in front of her squawking loudly and flapping it's wings. She had never seen a bird act like this ever. It was almost as if the little bird was trying to stop her or get her attention. Tsukiko stood there for a moment watching the bird wondering what would make it act his way. There was then a growl and a bark that came behind her that she was quite familiar with the bird flew off like lightning and Tsukiko turned to see her friend companion Moto. (( http://i.imgur.com/TQVwAail.jpg)) She shook her head, "Awe come on it wasn't hurting anything It was just trying to protect it's baby." -"Those sparrow's think they own the whole forest, its a waste of time to argue with them."- Moto's voice said in her head. "Yeah I guess you're right, finally decided to catch up huh?" Tsukiko began to walk again the wolf walking beside her. -"I've been waiting on your lazy ass since dawn. Honestly you sleep too much."- Tsukiko rolled her eyes. "It's not my fault mother and father didn't wake me. Besides, I would have missed the pup." She peeped into the swaddling where the little bay slept quietly. Moto scoffed -"That pups going to be nothing but trouble."- Tsukiko shook her head, "Sounds like someone's jealous of the new baby." she laughed. Moto didn't say anything else he just moved ahead of them. Tsukiko kept her eyes on the road ahead of her. What she didn't notice was the world behind her fading into a gray area with no form. Like a mist had engulfed the land behind her. 

Akira: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RraHZGRjn3o&list=PLLpECP6YduAkKChT8BWOMQNtAZ-FNuQfD&index=2 )Akira would have let out a yawn while rubbing the side of his head and sighing "Man why am I even here" he'd say to himself as he sat in the hospital hallway on a chair leaning back while looking out the window in front of him, Sian, and some other people Akira never met had been there as well all of them trying to comfort kin and support Suzume in some shape form or fashion, and Akira felt just about all the emotions that they felt, it wasn't as if he really cared if Suzume died or anything his world would go on just like it always did but all these people feeling was getting to him they just kept flooding on into him and it was starting to aggravate the hell out of him and the worst one of them all was probably the damn cry baby ass dad, eventually Akira had about as much of that shit he could take and would leave the hospital walking out of the building with a tear falling from his right eye thanks to all those inside of there he was actually kinda hurt that Suzume was like that it'd wear off eventually but all those wielded up feeling were still lingering he got a pretty good distance away from the hospital, Akira then began to stretch closing his eyes and yawning(during the flash so his eyes were closed already), and he could sense someone fighting which peaked his interest but he didn't go to see who it was mainly cause he didn't care and he was just gonna go find something entertaining placing his hand on his chin thinking about where to go before a massive creature appeared out of nowhere stepping into the city and had knocked over a fucking building, Akira would have stopped a looked at the thing for a minute before continuing about his business walking through a crowd of people who was standing there in a daze practically wobbling in place with dumbass expressions on their face, Akira would have sighed before turning back towards the massive creature “looks like you gonna have to entertain me for tonight since no one else seems to be up for some fun anyway" with that Akira would climb up and fire escape walking up it with both hands in his pockets once on top of the roof a few blocks away he'd walk over to the ledge and would take a seat on it hanging one leg over the edge and bending the other one at the knee, he'd then place his elbow onto his knee and rest his head onto the palm of his hand "Eh well you look pretty durable so at least you won't break easily so i can have a little fun" he'd say, his voice would have had all types of boredom in it ~Akira....kill....nothingness...die....survive....bless.....nothing.....savee...nothing....erase....everything.....completely...destroy...the..world..leave....nothing....save...the....world...bring....forth...life....its...not...too..late....Akira....happiness...exist...love...kindness..destroy...the...world...save...destroy...bless..nothing...bring...forth...life..~ multiple voices in his head would have begun speaking almost simultaneously one in a errie demonic whisper and the other in an angelic soft gently voice while others voices spiraled around in his head though he couldn't hear the other ones so clearly, Akira wouldn't have moved from his spot though suddenly the creature would find itself being attacked by a barrage of what looked like beams from behind each one of them crashing into the back of his head relentlessly( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1KQIgjF-L0 <--- the beams would look like the ones in the video) each impact on the creature would explode against the back of creature head continuously each impact sending light shockwaves his way, Akira would then send two stronger beams towards the creatures eyes attempted to blind the creature, these attack would have originate right above the creature so not to give away Akira's positon which was about 3 o'clock from the thing, Akira would have just kept firing these for away with the same bored look on his face though after a while he'd increase the number of blast hitting the creature from just about everywhere from it's legs up to his head and even if the light attack itself didn't have any effect the impact of said attack should eventually wear it down assuming they hit the damn thing all that could be seen by the creature would be an almost endless barrage of explosions making it difficult to even see the massive creature, Akira would then lift up his index finger and above the Creature a large concentration of light mixed in with lighting would appear, Akira would then flick his finger downwards and a large slash would be send down toward the creature This Is one of the techniques Akira has created during his Training Session the Attack uses a large amount of light which he body has been constantly adsorbing and unleashes and highly contrasted blast usually like a slash towards and opponent or object, this attack can easily cut through most objects and even those with peak heightened durability can be cut when he unleashes it at full strength and the more times he boosted his power the strong the attack's destructive power becomes increases even higher, The Attack is at its strongest during the Night time and is even stronger on full moons because Akira uses the light emitted from the Moon itself to power it hence the name "Lunar Blade" the attack itself wouldn't have been at full strength but Akira just wanted to see how durable the thing was before proceeding, in fact all of the said attack would have been relatively low on the power scale but that was just to conserve energy so to make up for the decrease in power he increase the damage output by constantly attacking it, if the slash hit the creature might possibly be cut by it arm area and would be electrocuted, the attack would case a large smoke cloud to show up in which case Akira would stop and wait to see if any of his attacks done anything in the first place though as he waited all he could hear in his head would be a multitude of voices whispering constantly which was something he's been experiencing recently( what it'd sound like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EVmV6LbJz0&list=PLLpECP6YduAkKChT8BWOMQNtAZ-FNuQfD )~jeez would you step up its hard for me to hear my own dumb thoughts and i don't want to hear your so shut the fuck up!~ he thought and he forced the voices in his head to quiet down some more ~much better~

Connor: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QknWOgo-OA ) Connor would’ve sat against a wall somewhere…off. He didn’t really pay attention to where he was going. After he and Yumi exchanged words, for what Connor had hopped wouldn’t be the last time they stormed off from one another. She wasn’t going to understand where Connor was coming from. She was in love with him.” I was a fool to expect any different…’ He’d sigh, shaking his head, and looking down at the ground. His clothes were pretty much shitted on, but he at least had his martial arts stuff in the trunk. He’d slipped that on instead, but opted to keep off the extra shit. He wanted to go to the hospital and check on Kin and the others. He didn’t know how they were or weren’t doing. Suzume…for that to happen to her. Kin’s main. He must be going through hell to fix it. “Just who the hell does Zeus think he is anyway…fucking…prick.” Connor didn’t even want to shoot an insult at anyone. He was so lost in his self loathing. He was confident Leon and the rest of the family would have the situation under some kind of control. Connor would’ve stood up against the wall at this point continuing to look at the ground. If he looked up…he’d wanna see Yumi standing there saying she was willing to let him have all the time he needed. He knew he wasn’t going to get that but he wasn’t about to complain. He couldn’t. he knew what he felt and weather she understood that or not, the only one who could fix this for him was him. Connor balled his fist. Angry with himself. How he’d allow himself to even come this far, screwing with two women’s hearts like he had it like that. His mom would’ve slapped the piss out of him by this point. Connor would begin walking to his car, and opening the door. “I’ll just…head back for the night. I’ll sleep in the shack. Hope things pan out for everyone. They know where to f-“ Connor’s ears twitched as he picked something up. Something faint…his senses weren’t on Tasanagi’s level, but he was still an Onihoruda, and had an enhanced set of senses to help him when the need arose for them to do so. “DAMNIT! CONNOR! I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU LET THIS ASSHOLE GET TO YOU ILL KILL YOU MYSELF!!” “Yumi?” Connor’s head whipped in the direction he’d heard her voice coming from. His danger sense instantly perked up. What the hell was going on?!? “CONNOR RYOJI!”( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxmMnMTQvVs&list=PLYNBny7IRlVkbiSVlrNHnbXbgZBIdU3Pl&index=2 ) Connor’s eyes widened. She sounded like she was in trouble. Yumi. In trouble. Who ever it is this guy had to be top level shit to even remotely do anything to her. “YUMI!!!” Connor screamed out, before squatting down upon the ground and unleashing a push blast form the soles of his feet! His body taking off at a high velocity, as the world blurred around him and his vision became tunneled! Connor would consciously micro push himself through the air, until he’d found the source of the sound…and the sight he saw angered him immediately! There was Yumi, broken and beaten and she was in the hands…of Hercules. Connor would land on the ground, the cement around him crackling up around him as he landed. He’d whip his head up to look Hercules directly in the eye! His fist clenched, and his teeth gritted. “you….you crooked son of a bitch LET HER GO!!” Connor’s eyes would’ve flashed a violent crimson red, as the seal on his back side glowed and shined brightly! Seeing Yumi like that…it angered him beyond anything he’d ever encountered to his point! “YOU DON’T FUCK WITH THE THINGS I CARE ABOUT….AND EXPECT TO LIVE FROM IT YOU BULKY PIECE OF SHIT!!!!” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDu9-gD-V2k&index=14&list=PLYNBny7IRlVkbiSVlrNHnbXbgZBIdU3Pl ) Connor’s chi would’ve melded and mashed together to form a bright golden like aura! The golden aura shrouding his body, and erupting off of him, destroying piece and portions of the ground around him! His chi shining brightly and illuminating the area around him and shadowing out various objects in his way! Connor would’ve raised his right hand, as it shook violently. His hand had a bright crimson glow to it, and the bones underneath were illuminated with a faint pink! A sign he’d coated his hand in destruction chi but ahhh…ever since his gaining of alteration chi, Connor’s hand would now have what looked like fluttering sparkles or glimmers coming off of it as well, dancing around the area of his hand. “I was saving this but now’s a better time than ever! This hand of mine glows with an awesome POWERRRRRRRRRR!!!” As Connor shouted his chi would close itself in forming more of a pillar this time rather than a giant spread of chi! Connor would’ve extended both of his hands as they glowed with the sparkling red coloration as well. “IT’S BURNING GRIP TELLS ME TO DEFEAT YOU!!” Connor would clap his hands together forming a literal sword of compiled destruction chi, held together by pure fortification chi to give it shape and substance. “HERE I FUCKING GO!!! ANIHILATIIIIIIIIIIIING DESTRUCTIOOON! SLAAAAAAAAAAASH!” (http://www.gifsforum.com/images_new/gif/other/grand/Shining-Finger-Sword-553c953fb4607.gif )Connor would unleash a push blast from his back side, his body surrounded in a golden aura, and a bright red sparkling blade of chi in hand, he’d dart towards Hercules moving at the speed of a sniper bullet! His arms drawn back as once he’d reach Hercules, he’d attempt to swing his sword from right to left aiming it at Hercules’ bulky neck! If it connected, not only would he be decapitated, but his head would explode on impact as well! Hopefully ending the battle on one swift blow and saving Yumi! The fury in Connor’s eyes as he had to see her like this. To see her forced to submit to anyone but him! It pushed Connor past the edge of all sanity as his eyes were wide with spite and anger!

( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVKZWfewrYU ) "He's....heeeeeeeeree..."Hercules said after dropping Yumi and turning his attention towards where he saw Connor prepping an attack of his own. Hercules simply placed both of his hands on his hips before he channeled his chi into his eyes. "You wanna know something about being alive for as long as I have boy..." He said as his eyes began to glow a bright red. “You pick up on a few tricks..." A beam of chi would erupt from Hercules eyes that would have shot Connor from out of the sky and literally frying him, and if it hadn’t been due to his Onihoruda Physiology he would have been decimated down to his last molecule. His body would have looked like Deadpool’s if it hadn’t been for his Durability. ( http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/3/33308/684978-superman13.jpg ) Once and when the attack connected and the attack connected he would have shot Connor out of the sky so he could walk over to the young Teens broken body. His right hand gripping into his hair as he rose him high above his head. "Hmph... " Hercules said smirking before his eyes flashed with images and whispers that the Fates had installed into his mind. That same image that has been giving him nightmares since The Sector Games had been declared.... (https://33.media.tumblr.com/a973e22561a2a6c938ec748b6c0e438a/tumblr_n4u5vjlCu41r8lm9ko1_500.gif) There was a reason why Keyome chose Connor to come to train under him. Connor and the others hadn’t even known. But Keyome did, and so did Hercules due to the Fates. Connor had been this generations Onigami just like Keyth had been the previous generations Onigami. You see... With each generation now, the Soul of the everlasting Onigami passes itself into an Onihoruda in hopes of continuing Konchi and Kiken and his own ambitions of world domination. This would have all ended had Keyth never opened those worm holes. You see, once Keyth overcame the Onigami it had actually left him and had been trapped in the realm of Dark Hadou for sometime. But once the Holes were made when he returned to earth, it allowed The Onigami's Akuma no hinshitsu to pass through the mortal plain and it chose Connor at an early age. Even Washi isn't aware of Connors fate and what power lies deeply within is veins. But Hercules knew and so did Keyome. Keyome attempted to train him so he could help Connor. And those seals on his skin prove to be more then weapons. But... that’s a tale for another day. As Hercules gazed into Connors eyes and he saw the Onigami that lie within his blood. Hercules tossed Connor up a bit only to grip him by his throat with his right hand. "... There will be a time. When you will not just be a thorn in my side. But to everyone you love and care for. I wonder how you will fair then. I almost want to see it but I’d rather kill you instead." In Hercules eyes, he was being a hero like he always had been before. "... Im going to take this girl. You see... one day she will mean something to you. And even now she empowers you. Look at how you challenge me. Its Amusing isn’t it?" Hercules said turning his attention to the outskirts of the city to the Oni that had been battling with. "But I just wanted you here to say goodbye." He said dropping Connors broken form and made his way over to Yumi. " Say Goodbye Ryoji... If you cannot defeat me. Then this girl... will become my mate for all of eternity." He said dragging Yumi out of the sewers and making his way over to a portal that he had created.

Meanwhile...

As Kin and Sian were warped into the depths of Suzume’s mind. The world seemed faded and distorted. ".... Everything’s... everything feels weightless." Kin said as he appeared in this world wearing something similar to what he had on in the start of the festival. His hair had been longer here and he seemed to be in his normal body. His hair long and flowing and he had his grandfather Keyome’s blade on his waist. He sighed realizing that the ritual had been truly a success. But this world... it chilled him. Kin used his claws to rip the hair from his head allowing it to shorten itself. His armor had been claded and his physical form had been slightly different. He was bigger he looked like his father, just like him almost. "Seems as though this world is giving off an perception of what Im supposed to look like later on or something of the sort..." Kin said unsheathing his blade only for it to grow in size as he hunked it over his shoulder with ease. “Interesting..." http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/11115/111151904/3688945-guts1.jpg "..." As he turned to look up. What had been in front of him had been the most distorted world he had ever seen. In the distance he could see a world, hooked up to a massive chain that linked itself to this world’s earth and on that chain had been a floating world. On this world it seemed to be daylight and it was in a sphere of some sort. But around that world had been this broken and charred world where night had casted over it completely. Kin's clothing blowing in the wind as he gripped onto the blade on his hip. To his far right he could see a castle, an evil and demented one that was twisted. This Castle had been alive however. In the middle of this dark castle had been a massive heart that throbbed and beated. "... Hypnos..." Kin said pointing at the castle. Two chains whipped out and latched onto the floating world from the demented castle and the chains were bright red signifying that it was sapping something from that world. “That world up there... that must be where Suzume is. We have to get there..." Kin said in cold tone as began to walk forward his long hair shifting left to right before the ground cracked at his feet. His cold golden eyes slanted as he pulled his right hand up to block Sian's walking path. "...Wait.” What came out of the earth next had been something hellish and demented.

“GET BACK!” ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZX62imOapU ) Kin said pushing Sian back as he gripped onto his female companion and leaped 100 feet back with her in his arms before landing on a cliff near by. As the creature erupted from the ground the world shifted once more and turned into a world of Ice and hellish cold. “Listen... you'll be in my way here.” Kin said looking over at Sian." That world up there... It has to be where Suzume is. Look... you've been a shitty friend." Kin said to her. "... I have too... But here's where we make a difference. Save her... Find her. I'll be right behind you. “Kin said gripping tightly to the blade as he stared at the creature that erupted from the earth's crust. ( http://hdwallpapersfactory.com/wallpaper_800x1280/monsters_desktop_1200x845_hd-wallpaper-900549.jpg)" Tch..." Kin gripped tightly to the blade and then with his free hand he would have gripped onto the back of Sian's top. “HERE GOES!!!” He said launching her away by hundreds of feet into the air so that she'd break through the barrier that was around the separate world hooked to the Hypnos powered castle. Once and when Sian had been tossed through the barrier. A loud screech could have been heard by the Castle as the large heart in the middle of the castle began to beat at an intense rate. “Yeah, yeah..." Kin said twisting the blade around a few times. "...Forgive me for this one..." Kin said taking a deep breathe. “Beastly creature... trapped in this world. I wont take it easy on you. Hypnos...Im coming to kill you. Do you hear me..." The Heart within the castle fired a beam of red at Kin. And he would have kicked off the ground blasting high into the air so he could do battle with the beastly monsters. " AAAAAAAAAAAAGHHH!! " He said shouting at the top of his lungs pulling the blade back so that he could strike the demon down! “YOU WONT TAKE MY FAMILY FROM MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" Kin said with a hellish tone in his voice. As he pulled the blade down. ( http://www.imgbase.info/images/safe-wallpapers/anime/berserk/6620_berserk_hd_wallpapers_sword.jpg )

Meanwhile!!!!

( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mp2fkcxlDgw ) " HUUUUUUUUUYAAHH!!! " Keyth said as he took off into the air. Slashing at the beast only to be knocked away. Hiro would have caught him in Mid air. " thanks! " " Don’t thank me, move! " Hiro said tossing Keyth back into the air so he could slash at the beats face. Then An Onslaught was made by Akira and it would have actually stunned the beast long enough for Hiro to run at full speed. Running at 250MPH " AGGGGGGGGH!! " He said football tackling the beast right in the stomach as he lunged at it blasting it 10 feet back. But then the beast would have caught both of the Descendants of Keyome Tasanagi and held them up to his face. The Beats voice booming out so all could see. " KEYTH... TASA... NAGI.... LONG...TIME.....NO.....SEE...." Keyth smirked as he was held in the beats grip. " Cant say the same about you... you ugly son of a bit-" As Keyth taunted the beast he slung Keyth and Hiro both into the desert wasteland even further on. " HMMMMMMMM! " Tao Law said as he began to do swift hand symbols " NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINN.... POOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" Was all Tao Law would say as he finished the hand gestures and then released an Altertionchi fuled fire blast of epic proportions! Right in the middle of Old New York. (http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20141031032935/narutofanon/images/e/ee/Tumblr_m75cspP8ea1rzghoio1_500.gif, http://38.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxfu5zmekw1r3ybkx.gif, http://sayforward.com/sites/default/files/ext_image/tumblr_l829wvBMWN1qze93ao1_1280.jpg?1283710452) The Explosion intense that it would have caused the ground around them to shake but the beast still stood. " Damn it..." Keyth said helping Hiro stand." Tch..." Hiro said standing next to his ' brother. ' Hiro turned to Keyth and smirked. " Give me a shot... Race you there... " He said as his blonde hair stuck up and eletric surges errupted all around him. Hiro being the sheer creation of the PSE, his body is designed with a failsafe. But he's learned how to tap into at will as of recently, once a failsafe for near death situations he will shift into what the PSE maru jeitai science's team's call “Zeus Mode." Hiro was made from the DNA samples of three men. Donnie Yun, his strand of DNA is what the PSE go into it's level of perfection any way’s. Donnie Yun still had small traces of the Z-serum in his blood, which Keyome collected after there battle in the wood's that faithful day. Along with Ketosan Hideo, which they used as a conduit to make an energy source for PSE soldier’s. It's called 'Surge'. It was replicated like chi and implanted into Hiro's body thus why he's able to go into Zeus mode in the first place. With Ketsosan's dna, the Surge was made from small traces of his blood that allowed them to contract an article chi. The surge is only within the PSE soldiers and only for the PSE soldier’s. It work's like chi would but the energy source comes from Hiro's combat high and almost work's like adrenaline. The longer and more he fight's the more of a surge output he can dish out. Thus why in a near death experience Zeus mode will activate itself. And last but not least, Keyome Tasanagi. Wanting the soldier’s to all be highly intelligent and able to adapt to any situation. They used Keyome's brain cells to do so, donating a small portion just for this project. They would have gone out there way to find Tetsu Ryoji's cells. But at the current time and date, it had been impossible to obtain. Along with traces of the creator of the city that they found within the old ruins of old New York. Hiro's body becomes a vibroweapon. His cells, skin, bones everything vibrating at such a high speed that he vibrates at inhuman speed's that make's his body give off a glow whenever he's n Zeus mode. His body becomes an ultrasonic generator. Able to use this factor in combat, the ultrasonic vibrations along his body’s edges allows him to cut through much denser materials than he would normally be possible. With a well formed strike he can almost cut through anything. Vibrating himself at an Inhuman pace of speed Hiro would have blasted off into the general area in which the beast had been! (http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130817164150/injusticefanon/images/a/a4/Flash_running.gif, https://38.media.tumblr.com/6d954cc99cfb048b215177b6e3030c89/tumblr_mqerz44HWb1ql41ypo1_500.gif) Pivoting on his feet! Hiro would have sent out a barrage of punches so fierce that the impacts would have actually caused the beats shell on his stomach to topple and crack just slightly. " YAYAYAYAYAAYAYAYAYAY HUUUUUUUUUUUUUYAA!!!" Hiro said shouting at the top of his lungs! (http://auto.img.v4.skyrock.net/3146/87053146/pics/3142910132_1_6_CjGr6R96.gif) Before he clapped its hands smashing Hiro into two before he drifted slowly to the ground. " HA! " Keyth said kicking off the falling Hiro's body as he sent a slash of his Yamisuki right into the creatures jaw knocking its head upwards. The Slash would have been so powerful due to Keyth removing his brackets, his chi skyrocketing! And causing a massive form of chi to form around the blade as he used fortification and alteration chi to empower the strike and cause yet another massive boom! From the blades impact on the beast.

It's all in your Head, A Demon Attack on Kasaihana...AGAIN?
Sian: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noHNHFRVwUQ) As she and Kin both fell into the depth’s of her beloved friends mind Sian would glance around bit her moon blue orbs taking full note of just how base and twisted it looked. Part of her questioning its stability for a moment as indeed it appeared to under another person’s control. “Such a terrible waste.” She’d hear her own oni say clicking her tongue softly inside that of her own her. Sian had to agree once her feet were allowed to touch something solid. Her sensitive ears hearing Kin say, “".... Everything’s... everything feels weightless." taking note to just what he was wearing but this time keeping her laughter to herself as appeared to be wearing an outfit similar to that of a scantily claded female ninjutsu warrior armed to teeth with kunais held fast to a thigh garter on her left leg and two double edge swords perched proudly upon her back inside of their sheaths. Her hair long flowing back past her back with a headband that denoted her mother’s heritage of the Sonade Clan and traditional ninja shoes upon her feet. Her figure was much taller and lean in a slightly sexual manner but her chest was of a size that Sian actually liked, a C-cup just like back in grade school and something she could actually work with as she reaching an arm back in order to let her hand claps the hilt of a blade in order to pull it out (https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/05/49/60/054960f51a3bb73178720a99f9b385ab.jpg ). Admiring the katana she held with a smirk. “Now this is what the fuck Im talking about. Yeah I know but at lease we made it.” Also noting that her wedding band was no longer on her left hand as she croons turning her attention back Kin who wasn’t half bad looking himself with longer hair he slightly resembled Lord Thunrian a bit in that get up. “Seems as though this world is giving off an perception of what Im supposed to look like later on or something of the sort..." Kin would go on to say. “It sure looks like it; though I have say Keyome’s look does suit you in my opinion.” Sian states taking several steps in the northern most direction of where they’re standing allowing her eyes to adjust to their surroundings for a moment in order to ascertain just where in the name in Su-su’s head they were the sound of a blade being removed from sheath hitting her ear drums as she turns to the left suddenly spying it amongst the distortion and upheaval of this world. Hooked up to what seemed like a thousand endless chains was this realms Earth and the others were that of another floating aimlessly in the sky. On this she could see daylight loomed in its skies and that it was in sphere of some sort but around the other nothing but darkness loamed devastated by something of great power indeed and it that place that gave Sian a truly terribly feeling as to right she saw the same as Kin a castle both demeanor and sinister in its formation, yet from it the young woman could hear the sounds a vibrate beating heart. “That’s gotta be him…” Sian said watching two more chain lash out and latch themselves onto the floating world over head before starting to give off a red glow as if it were sucking the life right out of something up there. The 19 year really not waiting around for Kin to finish his sentence as she starts to race off in that general direction only to have her path blocked by Kin’s right hand. “….Wait. GET BACK!” was all she heard before the earth gave way and something unspeakable reared its ugly head causing the raven haired beauty do several rapid back flips in order to escape from it but it was no use she was trapped that is until she was suddenly being grabbed by the waist by Kin and carried up 100ft into the air in his arms before being made to land on a cliff. The creatures from the grounds presence causing the world around them suddenly shift into a fridge cold wasteland something thanks to her having cold immunity she gratefully couldn’t even feel. “Listen... you'll be in my way here. " Kin said looking over at her causing Sian to seriously cut him the iciest look she’s quite possibly given a person to date as the rest of her fought like hell from pulling on the swords she was carrying out and literally pimp slapping him with the blade. “That world up there... It has to be where Suzume is. Look... you've been a shitty friend." Kin would go on to say to her. "... I have too... But here's where we make a difference. Save her... Find her. I'll be right behind you."

“Listen here you…” Sian would start part of her waiting to rip in to the arrogant wolf that stood before her but remembering what Tao had said about this place draining off your life energy the longer a person is there. “…..nah I’m not gonna do this….not now just know this you and Su-su are the only two things left I have to actually call family outside of my brother. I might not have been there back then but I’m here now and hopefully that counts for something.” She says rather quickly standing upright practically looking him in the eyes with her own as she moves back just enough gain a bit of distance from warrior so when he went to draw his sword and attempted to grab her by the netting of her body suit in truth would’ve found nothing but pure air as Sian her self had already crotched as low as she could to the earth and using the muscles in her legs pushes up with great depth in order to project her entire body into the air, her foot landing on Kin’s sword at just the precise moment needed in order for her to be hurtled into the air by hundreds of feet by the propulsion of the blade. All in order for Sian to reach the shackled and bound isle to which she did after taking to the air like bullet being shot out of a barrel of gun, the Asian beauty’s body conforming itself into a ball towards the last leg on the flight so that she could gain control just long enough for her to decelerate enough for her to uncurl herself as she tumbles downwards towards the isle’s ground and nail a nine point zero landing feet first rather than on her head as probably Kin intended it ( jk ) before turning on her heels just in time to hear the ghastly heart beating worst than the loudest drum. Despite hearing this Sian did stop she kept on her pace going from stride walking into a full out running onto a path that she hoped would lead her directly to Suzume.

“Phantom winds of the seven gales, lotus blossoms of the far east, blessed unity of 8 nine tails. SEAL OF KASHIMA RELEASE!!!” Sayuri exclaims a seven layered seal in kanji slowly making its way up from the ground in which the empress stood all of the spiritual power she’d been releasing out from her corporal form in the form of a manifesting itself into the sutra she’d just summoned before being directed out through the Sword of Ages which during this attack was being used a spiritual medium expel its power out into the air over head once she lifts the sword upwards in the direction of the heavens. This in turn would cause the heavens to grown dark in hue abolishing all light of the sun and in its place several thousands of lights would appear over head like stars but in fact were all giant blade resembling the one she carried a flame with the sun’s light. “EVERYONE GET CLEAR OF THE CREATURE NOW!!!” Sayuri would order in the hopes that all heard her and had done so not hesitating to lower the sword thus sending those above them down upon the oni before them in attempt to skewer it alive before burning it alive. If the attempt was successful the demon would have be several into giant chunks in the midst of old new York’s wastelands and burnt to a complete and utter crisp but not hopefully the attack launched by Hiro and would buy her some times as she looks to her left seeing none other than her spirit guide Noriko standing there battle ready. “Noriko-chan?” “Leave this creature to me mistress.” “Remember hurt none but the oni, understood.” “Noriko understands madam.” Giving a nod of her head Sayuri takes off after the others using the ungodly speed passed down to those of the Takageuchi for generations in order to keep with Hiro and Keyth who appeared to be having the time of their lives here as brothers often do she wagers placing the sword between her teeth before motioning her hands together in order to break the seals on her onis powers. Her hands coming together to doing several fire signs all representing heaven, hell, earth and soul as Noriko whose astral form still stood still in the place where she had left her with her head lowered into her kimono draped bosom as Sayu’s calm walk suddenly began to pick up into strides. From behind them both the woman could feel the darker more sinister force seeping in from the other side (Hell) starting envelope her cherished childhood friend, a demon who she had befriended and made her own when she was still but a child in primary school continuing to move forward without ever once looking back. If any of them had what is know as the third eye or the spiritual eye and it was open, they would see and notice the spirit of the woman Noriko standing still, motionless behind the running priestess as if waiting first for those that looked on to moved while she quickly scurried away to what possibly could be safety with her head lowered still lowered as each of the seals that bound into her “human” like appearance were slowly yet masterfully unlocked by her Mistress, a gush of un-naturally wild yet un-earthly cold wind would suddenly encompass the entire block in the range of the restaurant in which Noriko stood as a wave of dark energy swept through the grounds dragging with it a slightly the foul stench of rotten flesh as her true powers as a Hone-onna (Skelton Woman) slowly drug themselves to life. Noriko would motion her head up slowly from her chest leaving it cock to side some at a 90 degree angle revealing a face that was one half beauty and the other half monster ((http://www.deviantart.com/art/yokai-monogatari-Yumiko-393745876 she looks something like that)) all at the same time before raising its skeletal left arm up into the air allowing the bones that once served its as fingers in life to extend from the tips to become blood stain talons by use of bone manipulation an ability that gives an oni of her caliber control over her own bones this including the growing shaping and changing the density and/or weight thus enabling her to use them as projectiles/weapons against its victims and enemies alike. Its enemies at the moment being this 40 or so foot demonic like Godzilla as Noriko let out a unearthly cry before attempting slash jab and strike at the beast! Thus permitting Sayuri moving into the air flying in her hands she carried a sacred charm in hand which multiplied into many as she releases them into the air, each infused with her own spiritual energy that would act like bombs if and when they landed on the demon hopefully wounded it while all the same time avoiding that of Noriko as well. “Haha take that you stupid of bitch!”

Kin: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmDlkdxoHCY ) " GAAAAAAAAAAH! " Kin was blasted back down into the ground by the beast. " You son of a bitch..." Kin said bleeding from his mouth gripping tightly to his blade he said as he drug it across the ground. He'd been a bloody mess all already. " Fighting this thing... for about over an Hour now... its too powerful. Or better yet...Im getting weaker..." Kin said clenching onto his blade as he scowled at the beast. "... Heh... YOU STUPID SON OF A BIIIIIIIITCH! " Kin said charging the creature again only to be blasted right back down to the earth. He coughed up a spew of blood as his head dropped and he was about to fall to his knees until he'd caught himself. " C'mon Kin... you can do better then that..." " Yeah.. Whatever Keyomi... KEYOMI!? " Kin said turning his head over to see his sister.

http://khongthe.com/wallpapers/anime/warrior-girl-105391.jpg

She stood with a massive beast behind her. " Hello little brother. " She said smirking as she pulled the blade off of her waist. “The hell are you doing here!? " “I passed my soul through to you the day I died. However... when I did, I used a Technique I learned from a Dragoon on how to preserve my soul so it never passes to the land of the dead. I've been using your body and soul as a home beacon here in the Dream World. " Kin was impressed and stood to his full height. "... Just how much Sector GOD teach you..." “Enough. " She said aiming her blade at the beast as a shadow wolf the size of the beast rose up from the ground to level with the monster. " KIN! " Keyomi said crossing her arms on her massive shadow like hell hound. " Go to Suzume. " She said turning her head down to eye him." NO! IM NOT LEAVING YOU, NOT TILL WE BEAT THIS THING! " " QUIET KIN!... Your life-force is getting drained every minute your here... I wont lose you. Go save your girl you big idiot.." Kin's eyes lowered as he felt an immense sadness hit him. “Keyomi..." He said lowering his blade. “And Little brother..." She said smiling at him. "... I love you. " Kin’s eyes began to lower at the sight of her getting ready to leave him once again. Because he hadn’t been strong enough. “Alright Keyo. " He said clenching onto his blade and pulling it onto his back as he began to run. The Beast tried to follow! But She would have simply had her massive dog soar in the way of the creature. “Your fights with me now..." She said scowling.

Kin rushed towards the chains before he leaped high into the air. around 100 feet or so. Gripping onto the chains with his right hand as he began his climb to the top. "I exerted too much of my life force with fighting that thing... I Hope Sian's close to her by now. Don’t worry Suzume... Im coming! " Kin said as he climbed up the massive chain. Turning his head back once more to look at his sister before he smiled. “Thank you... Keyomi. "

Suzume: (( http://youtu.be/ZF5Mtvp6BK0)) When they would pass through where they assumed Hypnos had Suzume. They would find a path through a full lush forest the sounds of animals and birds echoing through the trees. (( http://i.imgur.com/ssU023Sl.jpg)) Not at all where one would expect a person to be held captive within their own mind. If one would travel the path they would soon come to a small clearing, filled with flowers, green grass, and a refreshing pool of water.(( http://i.imgur.com/WeBkb7Wh.jpg)) Next to the pool would be a wooden cart pulled by a horse that was calmly drinking from the water. (( http://i.imgur.com/gruCepzl.jpg)) The cart was filled with various supplies, food, cloth, pottery. Coming from behind the cart would be a young woman, dressed in a ceremonial kimono. She would reach up and pat the horse on the neck. (( http://i.imgur.com/A1m76ml.jpg)) It would soon come to her attention that she wasn't alone and hearing foot steps on the path leading up to the clearing.

She reached over the edge of he cart and began nudging something. "Kenji wake up someone's coming." There was a wild flail from under a blanket and a man sat up in the cart. "Huh what?!" (( http://i.imgur.com/xivVppO.png)) He blinked a couple of times obviously trying to wake himself up. He then looked towards the path that went by the edge of the clearing. "Noriko come on its probably just Tsukiko catching up to us finally." he said while stretching. The young miko shook her head. "No, I can sense what Tsukiko feels like, this... is different." The man stood up in the cart, smirked and did a front flip out of the cart onto the ground, landing on his feet. "Worry not fair maiden I am here to protect you with my life." He leaned over took her hand in his and was about to gently kiss the top of it when she yanked her hand away and bopped him on top of the head with her fist "Baka!, just do your job." Kenji sighed and rubbed the top of his head, "Ooow that hurt you know, you're always so serious you need to learn how to sit back, relax, and enjoy life." He wiggled his eyebrows at her and she rolled her eyes. "Honesty all you ever think about is sleeping, eating, and sex." Noriko brushed some grass off of her kimono. "Hey I think about more than just that.... Uhh swords and fighting. The undeniably sexy girl I live with, that is in denial that she would break her vow just to spend one amazing night in bed with me."

He smirked and she gave him a condescending glare, "You really are full of yourself aren't you?" He feigned shock pointing at himself, "Me? Oh no fair maiden, surely you are mistaken. I know many women that jump at the chance to bare my children." She laughed, "Really? That's not what they say at the geisha house in the village. I've heard many times." "Noriko, how do you stand living with Kenji?" He glared at her then shook his head. "Its so sad, and to think we have a child." Noriko whipped her head back at him. "She isn't our child, she's a poor orphan that was dropped on the steps of the shrine for a reason. Anywhere else a half demon child would have been killed at birth." Kenji sighed, and Noriko did the same deciding then to both await whomever was coming up the path.

Sian: Sian paused several steps from where she heard voices speaking. The length of her running started to take its toll of her body which was indeed strange to say the least due her own physiology. "I can’t believe Im this exhausted even after such a brisk jog." She'd say out loud to herself bending over for a moment trying desperately to catch het breath. "Remember what mortal told you back in hospital...." Suijin voiced apparently also feeling the strain of her being drained as well. "Yeah, yeah but who'd would have thought it be happened so fast." The teen ragged back. "In any case you'd best get moving the longer we're here the less of a chance we have on leaving." The oni tells her not wishing to pick one of there usual fights as Sian stood in order to resume her trek towards what she soon discovered to be a Japanese shrine equip with a miko and a landscaping that would surely take ones breath away that is if Asian beauty weren't already lacking that as it was. Stopping once again she would walk calmly up towards the young miko and the young male companion that was in her company. Ensuring that all of her weapons were either concealing or in their sheaths as she did so before bowing at the waist respectfully to young woman before as a sign that she'd meant neither of them any harm despite her apparent appearance of a ninja warrior. "Afternoon miko-sama, please forgive the intrusion but I was wondering that if over the past few days you might have had and visitor who's not from around these parts come about, a young girl perhaps with dark brown hair." Sian would ask her body started to feel worst for wear as stood there and the fatigue quite possibly very noticeable on her face in the eyes of the two. If either of them would answer her question Suijin would improvise her power carefully about the area through her charge as not to alert the priestess to just what Sian really is, the oni goddess coming to learn that this place was indeed an illusionary prison of sorts something created by Hypnos in order to keep something inside either happy and content while he did his dirty work that or blissfully ignorant. Question was that something Suzume or far worse as Suijin had become aware that much had changed inside of the young woman since the generation's revival 2 years ago as the lady recalled her power back whilst Sian. There was also something else too that she'd picked up on as well. "Any luck?" "None however there is something here that I do find amidst." "Like?" "A hanyou is here." Sian would give a glance as if to say 'so' to her. Look at what both the girl and her friend are wearing and area were in during these times neither oni nor hanyou were welcomed amongst human ranks so why would one be here unless...." "Suzume!" Said Sian. Suijin agreed with her. "Now the task is asking to see it without raising the miko-sama's defenses." Sian had already been on it as there wasn't any time to form a plan. "Miko-sama please if there is one of mixed blood here might I see them it’s of great urgency that I do they might be a very dear friend of mines who's life is on the line." She'd ask lowering her head again something both kin and Suzume knew Sian was too prideful in her own way to ever do but if being around Su-su had taught her anything is that all that didn't matter when one you cared about was involved as she waited on the woman's response.

The Oni's Within
Kin climbed up the chains step by step his amour clanking and shifting as he moved his way up. The tiring climb would come to an end once he got the barrier. Pulling his right hand back he used this dream world to give him superman like strength as he punched through the barrier to get him into the captive world where Suzume had been being held captive. Kin panted as he pulled himself over the ledge. His eyes had been low and the massive sword on his back was getting heavier. “I have to hurry... pick up her scent..." Kin said he attempted to use his chi but all it did was cause a surge of pain to strike him. And his once herculean form was shifted and dwarfed to how he really looked. Kin's long black hair draped over his back as he panted. His massive sword now back to its normal state of structure. He began to stand shaking his head as he held onto his ribs. "... C'mon Kin..." “Seems as though you need to borrow some power Tasanagi. " Okami said within his mind. Kin still wasn't used to it. After his second Chi seal had been opened. Okami gained a bit of power himself from it. Enough now that he could manifest as a voice within the depths of kin's mind. "... No. Demon. I don’t need to borrow your power." “Hm.. My curse won't do you any good here. Take my power; use it for the first time. Allow me to show you how the power of Okami truly stretches. You won't be able to do anything on your own here. Stop being stubborn Tasanagi. Let me assist you... “Kin grunted and closed his eyes before opening them again. "...Find... Find... Do it. I won’t make it after that fight anyhow. Ok Onigami Okami, give me your power so that I can find my women and child. “Kin said clenching the dirt. "... Good show Tasanagi... Good show. "Kin shouted at the top of his lungs as Okami's power erupted from the pit of Kin's forehead. A bright red glow that erupted so all could see in this world of Illusion created within the depths of Suzume's mind. ( http://th01.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2011/222/a/2/sesshomaru_by_sketchschmidt-d464run.jpg ) ( https://youtu.be/ER1OCDjKhl8 ) After the smoke had cleared Kin had taken yet another form. "... My Appearance..." Kin said looking at his hair in a pond watching his reflection. “You resemble an Oni within The Okami Clan. You look like one of my people now. The Tasanagi clan has there own Heightened state they reach after the age of 35. But you reached this state after you died during the GMAF's. Your power is already maxed. Im your last bet as surviving and winning. My family and your family are tied so deeply with one another. That once a Tasanagi reached the age of 35 they take the appearance of someone within the Okami clan. " Kin said gripping onto the blade's hilt on his waist. " Makes since I suppose..." He said scowling at his reflection. " Come now... " " Right. " Kin said retorting to Okami as his body moved in a blur. Traveling through the forest like a breeze of wind before he shifted into a Lightning strike and blasted off into the sky. He'd float above the world scanning it left to right. His nose catching the scent of every inhabitant on this island of land in the sky. " Sian's scent isn't her own here. " "Obviously Tasanagi. In this world... the rules do not apply. Think, use your head. "Kin's eyes scanned left to right before he caught onto Sian's scent and he grunted, blasting down as a lightning strike so he'd appear right in front of Sian and company. "Sian. Tap into your Oni's power..." Kin said looking back at her. "Its our secret to survival here. " Kin gripped the two strangers up into the air by there necks. Holding them high into the air as they struggled to escape his grasp. "... They seem familiar... " Kin said scanning them over. " These people... there characters from The Steel Samurai. Suzume’s favorite comic book series. "Kin said throwing them down to the ground as he unsheathed his blade." Where is Suzume Yasutake, Illusions." Kin said drawing his blade on the duo. "Answer me... Or you die. "Kin said in Okami's voice as he scowled. To Sian he'd look like a totally different person. But... if she watched, and listened. She'd be able to see Kin within this new image of beauty. His bright snow hair, Elegant perfect skin. And beautiful deep eyes. He looked so inhuman... to perfect.

Suzume: The young miko looked suspiciously at the young woman that had stepped into the mouth of the clearing. From what Noriko could tell she was some sort of kunoichi. The young woman was respectful but, there was something off about her. She was about to say something but both she and Kenji were taken aback when a demon rushed in behind the kunoichi. "Kenji!-" was all she managed to get out before the demon had them both in his clutches by the neck. Kenji writhed and struggled but could not manage to break free of his grasp. He didn't understand he'd never been so week before. Noriko flailed and squeaked, as her air passages were blocked off by the strength of the demon. He began to demand they tell him where a woman named Suzume Yasutake was being held. A name that neither one of the new. He also spoke of illusions and something called Steel Samurai. The young miko was completely terrified and confused.

"Mother, Father!!!" Tsukiko yelled as she leapt into the clearing. There was a bark and snarl from Moto who dashed in next to her. "Demon!!! I suggest you let go of them!!! Or I'll claim your fucking head!" Tsukiko pulled at a sword, getting into a fighting stance. She slid her right foot out to the side in the grass to make sure her balance was solid. Then gripped her katana firmly with both hands, she was ready to lunge forward at the demon if she had to. She knew she had to keep the pup safe so she had wrapped her in the blanket leaving her to sleep in a bush. After a moment of analyzing the situation at hand Tsukiko took a moment to take in the demons appearance. Being in the form he was, he must have been of some importance among the demon clans. This wasn't just the run of the mill nuisance demons she was used to dispatching; this... was a demon lord. Realizing she might have disrespected him she backtracked a bit. Letting out a breath, "I'm sorry my Lord... I didn't mean to disrespect... But please, they're my parents. I don't want to have to anger the demon clans... but I will defend these humans if I have to."

Defeated By a God
Connor: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDPHIQMSss8&index=24&list=PLYNBny7IRlVkbiSVlrNHnbXbgZBIdU3Pl ) Connor was coming in fast and hard with everything he had! But it wasn’t enough…none of it was. The last thing he saw was a beam of what felt like chi coming from Hercules’ eyes and hitting him dead on! Connor was only able to see flashes of white echoing around him. He didn’t feel a thing, because his pain receptors had been fried to high hell as the beam subdued and engulfed his entire body making him fall straight from the sky and landing face first on the ground. He could hear him….hear him taunting him. "... There will be a time. When you will not just be a thorn in my side. But to everyone you love and care for. I wonder how you will fair then. I almost want to see it but I’d rather kill you instead." Connor’s body twitched, as his charred hand began to etch forward just a bit. Using…whatever one would call it. Strength of will, heart, or just plain autonomic reflex, to reach out for her. “Y..Yumi…” Connor on the inside was screaming her name! Screaming for him to let go of her! His mind forcing his body to do!...what it just couldn’t do at this point in time. It was to much. The pain…the deaded feeling of his body overcame him and there was nothing. No boost of power, no second wind. Just sheer and utter defeat…the kind of defeat Connor detested the most. He could deal with the physical pain…he’d hoped. The real trauma was having Yumi taken away from him when they’d just gotten back. It wasn’t the reunion they’d wanted…but he couldn’t lose her again. He couldn’t! Not when there was a chance he wouldn’t get her back! "... Im going to take this girl. You see... one day she will mean something to you. And even now she empowers you. Look at how you challenge me. Its Amusing isn’t it?....But I just wanted you here to say goodbye. " He said dropping Connors broken form and made his way over to Yumi. " Say Goodbye Ryoji... If you cannot defeat me. Then this girl... will become my mate for all of eternity." He said dragging Yumi out of the sewers and making his way over to a portal that he had created. Connor watched on in horror. His eyes whitened out, as his finger twitched for her. He was powerless…again. It faded. The light from his eyes. The images he could see, and the last thing he saw was him carrying her away. Taking her to god knows where….Connor could do nothing but fade to black, and that’s exactly what he did.

Sian: A rapid breeze would suddenly blast past her form forcing Sian to stand upright once again and shield her face from its onslaught with both of her hands, its forming completely taking her by surprise as she moves to reopening her eyes in order to see the cause of it was none other than Kin himself. But something was complete different about him as he was a far cry of the boy she knew and had seen but moments ago his voice telling her to tap into Suijin’s powers as it was the key to them being able to survive in this place to which Suijin mutters, “Damn wolf sniffed me out.” Sian chuckling just a bit to herself not really waiting on the demon to give her permission to tap into her yokai or demonic aura which due the training she received down in Wakanda was rather painless to say the very least as her rising levels of chi began to form a crystalist of ice began to take a rapid shape around the young woman’s body starting at her feet and ending at her head. The icy enclosure acting like a cocoon about her form allowing her alter itself while inside before shattering into a thousand pieces revealing her usually tanned skin to be a pale white and right side of her body covered partial in scales. The un-natural beauty she normally possessed was amplified times 10 while the rest of her body had been returned to form she’d have if she was outside of the dreamscape of Suzume’s mind causing the 19 year old to not only look ravenous in the eyes of those who looked up on her but a force not to be toyed with too in the get up that she wore (http://hdw.datawallpaper.com/abstract/snake-woman-320513.jpg what looked like with the scales and such but still in the ninja gear ). Sian would open her eyes their iris now slanted now in the way that a snake’s would their moon blue and yellow like hues looking upon her male companion in slightly different light one of which she knew were of orgins that were not her own (yes she did check him out for moment pan don’t kill me pleaseee). Sian would watch as Kin grip the two she was talking to jerking them up into the air demanding that the two tell them where Suzume was before saying that they indeed did look familiar to him and then deducing that they were in fact characters from a popular manga series that Su-su actually loved causing Sian to take another look at them in order to realize he was right! “Are telling me that these two are….the reason Su-su took up kendo in the first place?” her voice laced in the tones of a nobleman as was her posture it was Suijin’s tone when she spoke remembering back on that fate day in the Kendo club’s dojo Suzume telling her that she knew very little about sword play except for what she ready of The Steele Samurai series as both were thrown back onto the ground by Kin before going towards the hilt of his sword with his hands in order to draw it upon the two. “Seriously Tasanagi-san this isn’t getting us any more closer to the finding her, put the blade down you know I speak the truth. Remember Hypnos is the true enemy not them!” Sian states with a slight hiss at the end of her words when she spoke her own arm going for her own blade in order to stop him from being so reckless. What followed next completely surprised her as the form of another leapt out from the brush calling out to the pair that Kin was attempting to attack before going on to say, "Demon!!! I suggest you let go of them!!! Or I'll claim your fucking head!" as she got into a stance with a sword in hand causing Sian to turn hers completely on the girl in order to defend. “Didn’t any one ever tell you girl never draw a blade unless you intend on killing someone?” a statement she’d often tell those who were in the kendo club during practice sessions, one that she meant whole heartedly as she saw the stance that she was in and knew she could easily unarm her if need be in order to get things truly on the road. After a moment of silence she would speak again apparently having recognized Kin’s status by the attire that he wore which in least made Sian feel sorry for having made fun of it before during the festival before Suijin let off a brash chuckle in response to her charges guilty. “You see now granddaughter, the importance of knowing about your past and where you come from. And respecting it through the highest of reverence.” The Lady explains the woman before her letting out a breath before going on to apologize for her actions but staking a claim that she would defend the mortals behind her if she had too. To Sian that was mere arrogance in itself to ask for forgiveness and still say that she’d kill them in spite of this if they stirred a foot against the humans they needed information from, her prehensile tongue escaping her lips for a moment in order to take in their surroundings then retracting itself back between them the scent that came back as snakes use their tongues to breath coming back as none other than the one they’d been searching for. “Kin…I think we might have found her…” Sian would say gesturing her head in the direction of Tsukiko.

Kin: ( https://youtu.be/xmDlkdxoHCY ) You Dare step to me!? Foolish Hanyou. " Kin said with a tone that wasn't his. This had been Okami Speaking obviously and Kin would have mentally punched himself for talking like that. Blinking a few times in attempts to snap out of it. Kin's eyes scanned over the female and he knew who she had been the moment he had seen her. His eyes slanted and he sighed, a smile breaking across his face. But that was when it occurred that this had been a distorted dream. . . This had been the entity that Suzume transformed into. But... she had the thoughts and memories of another. Hypnos and Zeus curse had laid itself deeply within Suzume’s mind at this point and it had been evidently clear at this point. "... How beautiful..." Kin said taking her hand and pulling her up from the ground by her right hand if she had allowed him. A smile breaking across his face. However...Before Sian could even speak in terms of who this girl may have been. A loud crack could have been heard and Kin's eyes slanted in this Okami State of his eyes. The Skies that were once a bright blue shifted into a hellish red as black clouds formed above there heads and a Tornado came down on the gang. "...Hypnos." Kin said unsheathing his blade, it shifting into a Blade that Kin didn’t know of himself. But before he could marvel at it. He would have pulled it to the right and with a whip of his right hand he would have sent a massive surge of Black Lightning at the Tornado that caused it to Phase out. A Screech could be heard and then the skies turned back to there original blue. "...Strange weather were having... aren’t we." Kin said to Sian, basically saying that Hypnos is on to them. And he knows where they are. "Before we depart half demon... Where were you on your way to..." Kin said playing along just long enough. 'Sian...' Kin said using his mental to speak with her. ‘We have to be careful... do you see how began to blatantly ask for Suzume by name and the skies changed? Im gonna take a guess that was a reflection of Suzume's mind distorting on itself. If were getting her out, we have to ease her out other wise even if were successful. Her mind may matter... we have to be careful. Follow my lead...' He said telepathically as he waited to hear the girl’s response to his question.

Meanwhile...

( https://youtu.be/Ql3g1BUVfJs )The attacks Sayuri and the gang had been making on the demonic Titan were starting to show as began to stagger in speed and strength. “GET EM NOWWWWWWW!!!!” Keyth said blasting off into the air and upper cutting the beast with the strongest punch he could muster, Hiro followed right behind it with a knee into the beasts chin and then Tao Law Fired a Ninpo from his mouth so power that it literally would have shot through the beast! The Monster would have screeched and would have staggered backwards As it got ready to fall to its death before its eyes shifted into a bright purple. “Oh God...." Keyth said as he watched it began to glow from all over! “NO! NOT NOW! " " What is it!?” Hiro retorted back to Keyth. “It’s... going to Denote..." Tao Law said as tightened his mask. “C’MON! DONT YOU GOT SOME CRAZY CHI MAGIC TO SAVE US! " "... No... I don’t..." Tao Law said.

Sian: Sian would stand there watching to Kin look woman down in all of her glory part of her literally disgusted that he’d used this moment to gawk the woman before them so indiscriminately as she drops her arms from under her amply bosom in order move in towards the hanyou so that she could lay claim to her about the waist, “This no time for you ogle you foolish pup grab her so we can…..” A loud crack was suddenly heard interrupting the serpentine female’s words the irritably in her face showing overly as her slanted spheres looked up at the skies muttering, “What now?” the skies had begun to change once again their state of a hellish red rather then the blue they all knew it to truly to be as clouds of the blackest night made their way through forming meretriciously over head in a rather random state. A funnel of pure of wind with the makings of a tornado suddenly descending from the heavens on top of them prompting the Suijin, adorned Sian to immediately reach instinctively for Tsukiko attempting to latch her right arm onto the girl about the waist as she launching herself backwards into the air her still holding onto the hanyou (that is if she were allowed to grab her) with her legs out as if to attempt a backwards dive of sorts before coming to land onto a nearby branch on a cherry in order to avoid what would appear her actually predicting as to what was to come next once she caught sight of Kin go for the hilt of his sword he was carrying. A massive surge of dark lighting formulating itself upon the black before being launched at the ravenous twister which ceased it’s howling gales upon contact and resumed things to what they were. For inside Sian herself actually stunned at Suijin’s predictions of the attack in which Kin was going to use even more so her the move she used to get her and the girl they were holding to higher ground before it was launch. “Bakka.” She’d hear Suijin say. “I’ve seen that move a thousand times, during Okami and I’s own battles surely you don’t think me stupid enough as to not know how to evade it now after all these centuries.” Sian would let out an irate moan at Suijin’s condescending nature picking on what Kin was saying as she goes to release Tsukiko if she hadn’t already gotten free of the oni’s grasp. “Indeed…tis enough make one wonder what they should wear outside.” Sian replied back, shifting her gaze back down towards the ground to Kin who’d asked the halfing just where in the world she was heading making her wonder just what in world was he thinking asking such a question before hearing his voice inside of her own mind. ‘Sian... We have to be careful... do you see how I began to blatantly ask for Suzume by name and the skies changed? Im gonna take a guess that was a reflection of Suzume's mind distorting on itself. If were getting her out, we have to ease her out other wise even if were successful. Her mind may matter... we have to be careful. Follow my lead...' ‘Yeah I noticed Hypnos does like us poking around in here much now does he? I think the control he has over Su-su’s mind has caused her to form some type of barrier or a defense against us, it almost as if she doesn’t want to wake up from this nightmare. And one wrong move could possibly render her brain dead or worst. I agree, Hmph so much for the direct approach. Alright what’s our next move.’ She replied back in the same manner her jumping down from the tree limb she was on with ease landing with procession onto her feet nearby.

"Disintegrate, you black dog of Rondanini!! Look upon yourself with horror and tear out your own throat!" Sayuri exclaimed using her index and middle fingers, the she is able to generate an orange-hued tendril with spiraling yellow patterns, which ensnares and immobilizes the oni as the tendril wraps around their body. The end of it remaining in her own hands allowing her to control the path of the tendril before and after capture. The tendril can connect with another one of itself, if both have captured the target and bound together Sayu would take this opportunity to bound off in a southern most direction tighten her grip in order for the creature to received its fatal blows from Tao, Keyth and Hiro with the rope of spiritual energy still in hand as it begins to glow all over in attempt blow all of them to planet Fumei and back by detonating itself. “So if it can’t beat us it would rather just blow us all to kingdom come is that it. Ha and just when you thought onis couldn’t get any lower they up and prove you wrong.” Sayuri would sneer loosing the power she held over the rope in order to motion her hands into several rapidly known fire signs all in the attempt to perform a barrier spell (hate that word) know as Shiju no Saimon, a move that when formed combines the known techniques of  Ryūbi no Jōmon, Kokō no Jōmon, Kigai no Jōmon, and Hōyoku no Jōmon. When the four barriers come together, they create a rectangular prison-like barrier around its opponent strong enough to possibly render the intended explosion meant to take them all down with the beast into the underworld with only cracks left in its walls as Sayu would give it an extra boost of her own oni guides power in order to make sure that the barrier wouldn’t dare falter in strength in order to protect them all from the blast. But just in case that it didn’t she would immediately belt out, “EVERYONE FALL BACK NOW!!!” wanting nothing more but to due her job as she knew the risks that came with this profession and was willing to risk her life for the others as she remained on the front line to ensure that the barrier would hold.

A Bunch of Hot Air
Akira: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4un7Jedpicg ) Akira would have watched as he attacks seemed to do something to the creature though only long enough for some other people to land a few blows on it which didn't do much at first though after a while others began to join in on the fight and attacked the Oni along side the three of them the ground would have shake horrible which cased the creature to stumble and allowed them to land even more attacks onto the beast which Akira would have timed his next strikes along with there hitting the same spot it was hit in trying to do extra damage but seeing little results he stopped and decided to Switch game plans and would stand up stretching out a bit and he was about to take off towards the beast though he felt a hand on his shoulder stop him and would he looked over his shoulders his eyes widened briefly before going back to normal "Hm you just couldn't resist huh" "you kidding me look at that thing theirs no way in hell I’d miss out of a feast like that plus you guys seemed to be struggling anyway" "not really not like I put a whole lot of effort into those attacks" Akira would have said staring up at the blonde haired male whom was wearing a medium dark blue almost black looking suit and on his arms where to red gauntlets with a gold trimming which extended all the way up to his elbows( http://yakuza-mob-roleplay.wikia.com/wiki/Hegai_Tsukada <--who the man was and how he looked --> http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/yakuza-mob-roleplay/images/4/4d/Gallery_59_11_590732.png/revision/latest?cb=20140816104731 ) "anyway I'll be back you on the other hand should go check in on your sister make sure she's alright" Hegai would say only to hear Akira reply almost immediately "nah I'm good she'll be fine plus I don't feel like wasting time on her right now So I think I'll watch the show from here for a while longer" Hegai's piercing blue eyes would shift downwards towards Akira looking him directly in the eye and he noticed something was different almost instantly he'd then laugh a bit "So you've finally lost control of him huh Akira" "Lost to what" Akira would say with a demonic smile on his face knowing exactly what Hegai was talking about, Hegai would simply grin before disappearing from his sight and suddenly appearing over the top of the giant Oni which was being wrapped up and then contained within what seemed to be some type of barrier "Well we can't have you messing with my feast now can we" Hegai would then snap his fingers and the Massive Oni would disappear from within the Barrier and the binds that once held it would fall to the ground Hegai would then snap his fingers Again and the Beast of a Oni would land heavily onto the ground right outside of the said barrier, Hegai/Kaguro has the ability to create his own pocket dimensions within another so all he would have did was place the beast within his own pocket dimension and spit the creature back out of the side dimension though outside of the said barrier, A Demonic ass smile would then form on to his Face and his Blue eyes would turn Blood Red he'd then how his hand out and a Burst of Deep Red Chi would erupted from him which would have caused the area to feel ;like gravity itself would have began to increase though in reality it would have just being the pressure emitted from his Chi and as the Beast would preparing to Explode Suddenly a small Hole would form in the Palm of Hegai's hand which would have seemed like and endless dark void, and suddenly Smokey black tentacles’ with hands on the end of them would have shot from out to the Void in the palm of his hand, multiple of them would have began to wrap around the large beast and they would have been eating away at the beast Chi while seemingly holding the beast in place Suddenly the hands would go back into the void and unearthly Winds would have begun to blow suddenly going way beyond that of an hurricane on the highest scale making it seem as if a hurricane was a meet breath in comparison, the Giant beast along would a few other objects would have begun to get sucked towards the Void in the palm of his hand at a inhuman speed and if this was successful the Beast would have been absorbed into the Void that formed in Hegai's palm, though it didn't stop there the same arms that formed earlier would have tried to attach themselves to the other fighters there which if they were to get wrapped up by one they would find themselves being dragged towards the void as well “Sorry, Sorry it's been awhile since I've had to use this ability so I can't control it right now So till then try not to let these hands grab onto you if you do there almost not way to stop me from eating you" he'd yell out as the pull towards the void on his hand would have gotten stronger sending multiple object flying towards the void like rocks and what not though upon touching his palm the objects would have been destroyed, only things that the shadow like arms touched are able to be absorbed into him. even if you weren't touched by the hands they'd have to find some type of why to brace themselves to the ground(had to add my own twist to the wind tunnel cause I hate coping abilities directly) meanwhile Akira would have just sat there continuing to watch the event unfold only reason he was able to even remain on the ledge was because he stabbed breaker into the ground and used it to brace himself, while at the same time shooting light attacks at the multiple hands that would have been coming toward him causing them to disappear momentarily though they would have just kept coming, After exactly Five Minutes Hegai would have gained control of himself Again any everything would go back to normal well normal as possible considering the events “I Sorry bout that" He'd say while lowering himself towards the ground where everyone else would have been at “Sorry if I caused any other you any trouble but I just couldn't leave a meal like that unattended to it would have blown its self up it would have been such a waste don't you think" He'd say licking his lips.

Suzume: Tsukiko head felt like it was in a whirlwind, the demon turned towards her and it was almost as if he tried to kiss her hand while asking her a question Then the female that had been there with him turned out to be a demon as well it was if a storm started then ended as the male demon shot lightning at a tornado that had formed turning everything to normal. The female attempted to grab her but she moved away from them both. Her mother and father took the opportunity to climb into the wagon. -"Moto... get the pup."-she said to her wolf friend in her head. She continued backing away from the demons. They were obviously very strong much too strong for Tsukiko to take. She watched her father grab the reigns of the horse, Moto had slipped into the wooded area around the clearing. Tsukiko looked her father in the eye's and nodded, he in turn nodded back. "Hah!!!" he yelled making the horse and cart bolt towards the forest path, if the cart would make it past Kin and Sian they would continue running full sprint towards the village leaving Tsukiko in the clearing with them. Then Moto the wolf would come back around, carrying the pup in a blanket. She didn't know what to do but there was something in the back of her mind familiar about these two demons. She couldn't put her finger on it, but she had a nagging feeling that she knew them. -"Tsukiko... Come on we have to get out of here. If we can manage to elude these two, we can get to the village the army could surly do something." - She glanced down at the wolf,- "Are you sure? Shouldn't we back track and lead them away from the village? We don't want to risk the lives of the villagers."- She and Moto had developed this form of mental communication when Moto was found by a four year old Tsukiko in the forest around the shrine. -" No! we have to get to the village the visitor is very influential in the empire, if you don't bring this pup to him what would happen? Your parents are bringing simple supplies for the village, nothing to show their loyalty to the visitor. You don't want you parents loyalty to the empire to be in question do you?"- Tsukiko nervously swallowed, he was right the empire had long questioned the motives of her parents. Especially their decision to take in a half demon like herself.- "Yes, you're right but perhaps these demons can be reasoned with or perhaps bargained with. "-She could hear Moto laugh in her head -"They're demons.... what do you think? Do you think that the demon that raped your real mother could be reasoned with?"- Tsukiko honestly didn't know what her next move would be.

Kin: The Demon on the outside world had been vanquished by the outside help and they didn’t stop to celebrate long. Keyth made his way back to the hospital, along with Tao Law. Rushing back to there aid as quickly as they could. They opened the door and Keyth panted. “Are they out!?” The room was silent and Keyth dropped his head. Tao Law simply took a step forward as he crossed his arms. “If they reside within in... for too much longer. Then there souls will be lost to the Dream world, and they will die here..." He sad with that same stern and powerful voice of his. Keyth tensed and gritted his teeth as he shook his head, shaking Kin's unconscious body. “DAMN IT! KIN! HURRY UP KID... YOUR NOT SUPPOSED TO DIE LIKE THIS YOU HEAR ME... SO YOU'D BEST GET THE HELL OUT THERE! AND IN A HURRY! DO YOU HEAR MEEEEEEE! I SAID HURRY UP! " " Foolish Monkey.." Tao Law said pulling him back from his son. “There is nothing you can do now. But to hope that the children will make it back in time..."

Stop Playing the Hero
Kin would have stood with the girl as he watched Suzume's make belief family flee. " Hmph..." He said turning to Suzume with his arms crossed. ' Ahhh... babe... your so beautiful. Even here...' He said to himself as he sighed. ' But... there's something going on. In here, its like something is trying to claw out of my heart and get to you. And I can't explain it. ' He took Suzume by her wrist and as he did. He'd take a look around, the sky was shifting and everything was dimming down a bit. ' My vision...' Kin said gripping onto his face. ' Your Life Energy boy...' Okami said to kin. ' Seems even with my power... it's being sapped away. That Sian... her energy is going faster though. You have your second Chi Seal open. She does not, you have more to spare. She won't last that much longer in here... ' Kin looked at Sian and he smiled. ‘I see...' Kin said to Okami before he crossed his right hand. Kin closed his mind and thought of how Tao Law did the hand signs and he began to replicate it himself. “Sian..."Kin said referring to her real name. "... This is where I draw the line. You've done your part, I wouldn’t have gotten this far in without you. Thank you...for everything you've done. But this part... is my part alone. " Kin said as his hands began to do there thing. (Note this isn't something Kin really do, it’s for the sake of plot and Kin can copy abilities by watching someone do it after he breaks it down. He did the Hierro in the GMAF’s the same way. But no this isn’t something he can do, so I don’t want anyone else doing Ninpo's XD Im fucking serious I will Jin you. )

( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBEwXlBaNdc ) ‘What are you doing boy!? ' Okami said. ‘Giving her some of my chi... so she can get home.' ‘Foolish boy. Your just like Kagemaru. Keyome was smarter. ' 'Hmph... I liked it better when you couldn’t talk...'

http://media.giphy.com/media/kMEVRSFceaZQA/giphy.gif

He opened his eyes and then he sent a spring of blue chi hit Sian. " Ninpo.." He said softly and as he did, it would have ejected itself through her chest and blasted through her whole body, causing Sian to wake up in a coughing fit. While her dream world form would have shifted in away in a burst of blue. " Ugh.." Kin said gripping onto his chest as he felt his heart throb, seeming that he gave away almost all of his chi just to do this. ' Im sorry Sian...Im the only one who can pull Suzume out of this.' He turned his head back to the Hanyou and smiled. “Come girl..." He said giving her his elbow so that she would link arms with him. " Let us take a walk... before you go to where you need to go. Hm?"

Sian: Sayuri would watch the oni disappear from the barrier in which she’d formed her eyes glancing back for a moment in the direction she’d seen it get sucked off in their gaze narrowing as she suspects another demon has something to do with but rather letting go of the matter as she permits her energy to dissipate from her control in order for it to return into the depths of her own soul whilst the others return move to take their leave of the place. A part of the oni slayer is relieved that this didn’t spell her finally breath but wonders just how much damage did she and her cousins allow when they left Kasaihana to itself 10 years ago. Sayu smirked motioning the blade she carried about in her hands like an old fashioned gun slinger would the sword of ages disappearing just as quickly as it had home. ‘Perhaps that is something we will never know.’ She told herself solemnly turning around on her heels in order to catch up to the others which itself was a breeze due to the ability of un-natural speed which would make any run given the chance seem like a brisk walk in the park to a member of her clan. Upon entering Suzume’s for a second time the miko isn’t surprised to see that neither the young Tasanagi nor his friend have awakened from being placed in the dreamscape by Tao Law but what she is surprised to sense is that the girl, Sian as Tomoko called her was in fact almost nearing a critical state despite being an onihoruda herself. Watching the boy’s father shake and rattle his body without any hesitation Sayuri immediately goes over to Sian and begins to make an assessment of her vitals and discovering that she was almost cold as ice something that even most yuki onnas had never even gotten. Prompting Moko to look up from her vigil over Suzume to see what was the wrong as the empress goes to unbutton her shirt to expose the upper most part of her breast clearly not giving a damn what her actions might do in regards to the dream that Sian was in she just wanted…the girl…live. Her sea green hues wild Sayu lets off a swear going to work giving the 19 year old CPR as her breathing was almost non-existent, “Damnit!” she say bringing her head to Sian’s lips before placing her own onto them breathing deeply into the girls lungs several time before placing her hands on her chest in order to let it out then resuming it again. “Common hun breathe….BREATHE….you’re much stronger than this….BREATHE!” Moko’s motions to leave the bed where Suzume lay were slow but the moment she saw Sayuri open up her daughter’s shirt she knew what was happening. Sian was dying and in that moment everything stood complete still as she watched every memory, every moment in her daughter’s life come rushing pass her in the blink of an eye before her feet would finally rush forward in the direction of her child with tears starting to fall down her face. “Sian…please…baby girl don’t do this….for once stop being so stubborn and…..SIANNNN!!!” Moko call out almost as if she were in pain, but in truth she could feel what was left of her heart, her world starting shatter.

Inside of the Dream world…..

Sian would take a deep breath despite having mastery over her second form and over some of Suijin’s powers she could still feel the strain of this place on her making the runt of the onihorudas finally wonder if indeed this was extent of her power or was there more that she hadn’t learned of yet….and if so why? She’d ask herself stumbling several times as the group made their journey onward her vision often becoming blurred before finally coming to a halt altogether her eyes narrowing at Kin and the seemingly dream version of Suzume. A part of her smiling at the two before standing upright again pushing off her condition as she didn’t wish to worry about the two continuing on their trek towards where ever. Sian had always been only to only care for herself but when it came to Kin and Suzume, especially Su-su what happened to her didn’t even matter any more just as long as she was safe and fine. It was something that even her own family wasn’t even aware of come to think of it. That if it came to it she would die in this place in order to make sure that both of them got out this alive. At least it was the one gift she could give them to make up for being such a rotten friend in the first place. Besides no would miss her and her family outside of her mother was dead or ghost. Sian told herself softly making sure to keep her thoughts to herself and away from Suijin who’d she know would scoff her ass at her before giving her scold of the century for being so self righteous. Kin’s glancing back at her smiling catching her attention causing her to respond with one of her own though weak in nature. This of course made Suijin wonder just what the hell was going on…as she spied that, that knifing wolf Okami just might be up to something and began to prepared to pull some tricks of her own if it were to come down to it. Never once guessing what Kin in fact had in store for she and Sian both as her slanted orbs would catch sight of the motions in which the boy was attempting to do while speaking directly to her change upon the direct calling of her name. “Sian..." Kin said referring to her real name. "... This is where I draw the line. You've done your part, I wouldn’t have gotten this far in without you. Thank you...for everything you've done. But this part... is my part alone." Sian would let out a reverberating hiss, “And who says you have a right to do shit….if I die standing by my friend’s side that’s MY CHOICE not yours so stop trying to be the hero will ya!” motioning right arm back with her palm open in order slap the Okami change Kin completely stupid as she realized just what in god’s name he intends to do before letting her hand rip in the hopes she knocks him the middle of next week if and when it makes contact with his face. Even if it does its too late as she sees him perform the very same motions Tao had in order to send them both there the words “Ninpo…” coming from his mouth a power aura suddenly coming forward from his hands before being blasted directly at her. “YOU IDOIT….KIN!!!!” Sian exclaims her body fading away in the blast given her inside of the dream world just as her body in the real world would bolt upright gasping for air and coughing like crazy the rage and tears in her eyes apparent as she’d turn over onto her knees onto the bed she’d been placed in alongside Suzume literally not giving a damn about herself despite being crowded around by a team of doctors, wired up, and such as the situation had gotten well beyond anything Sayuri could deal with on her own. Most of the doctors and nurses jumping back in complete shock whilst she does this Moko would immediately go to grab her for she knew that Sian was out for blood when she started to screaming, “Damn you Tasanagi, just when in hell are you going to stop playing the hero and let us all help you?!” the tears rolling down the teenaged girl’s face, her mother hugging her as tightly as she could as her anger gives way to the true feelings of concern….nay love (hence why she’s crying) that she has for both Suzume and him.

Suzume: Tsukiko watched as the male demon dispelled the female, she blinked a couple of times. "What sorcery is this..." the male pulled her along by the arm asking her take a walk speaking to her as if he knew her. Moto growled and snarled at the male demon. -"Tsukiko get away from him! We have to get to the village. Don't be so foolish!!!"- Tsukiko was taken aback by Moto's warning he had never spoken to her in such a way. She pulled towards her wolf friend while the male demon had her other arm. "Moto... give me the pup." She said calmly. The wolf growled as she stepped closer to him, taking her arm from the grasp of the male demon. "Moto, what's wrong with you give me the blanket." Tsukiko scrambled forward trying to snatch the blanket, however when she got her hands on it she found it empty. "Wait? Where's the pup?" Moto then growled and lunged at her his jaws snarling and snapping. It was such a surprise to her that she fell backwards onto her rear, hitting the ground with a thump. Putting up her arms to shield her face she gasped. After a moment she realized the attack she was expect didn't happen. Slowly she put her arms down, finding nothing there. Moto had disappeared, she looked around as the world around her sort of glitches a bit. She the looked back at the blanket in her hand, "I don't know what's going on but I have to find the wolf pup. She's to young to be out in the forest alone." Tsukiko stood up, but soon stopped dead in her tracks. A sharp pain shot through her abdomen, and she doubled over onto the ground again. Writhing on the ground she curled up into a fetal position. "Ahhhhh!!! It hurts, what's happening to me.!!!" tears began to stream done her face.

Meanwhile in Suzume's hospital room.-

Moto sat on the other side of his daughter's hospital bed. It had all been just crazy to him, he didn't understand half of what was going on. He kept looking from Suzume, to the two other kids that had done some sort of magic mumbo jumbo to enter Suzume's mind. One had already returned, in a terrible state crying and distraught cause the Tasanagi boy had sent her back... to keep her from dying. He feared the worst for Kin and Suzume now if they didn't get out soon they would die. Moto hung his head, "Please... I can't loose you too Little Bird." Just as the words left his lips alarms started going off on the equipment attached to Suzume, her face contorting with looks of pain and she began to cry. Moto shot up looking over her frantically trying to find out what was going on. He would then notice as the blankets on Suzume's leg started to grow wet. "Oooooooh shit is that what I think its is. Somebody get the doctor, the nurses anybody, I think her water just broke!!!"

-In a dark smokey Karaoke bar not to far from where the festival had been.

(( http://youtu.be/TazHNpt6OTo)) (( http://th07.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2010/241/f/6/emotion__drunk_by_shikanara55540-d2xlglk.jpg)) Lian sat at the bar with several bottles of warm sake around her as some dude at the mic sang the worst rendition of the Pinacolada song she'd ever heard. He had the shirt of his kimono open and some how a tie tired around his forehead. Obviously intoxicated he belted out the lyrics of the song like he was singing to a sold out stadium. Unfortunately all the words were slurred into to incomprehensible nonsense and he sounded more like a stray dog howling at the full moon. Lian had noticed several times that the entire building had shook, in fast it felt like an earthquake at first. Followed then by monstrous roars, the bartender was a mess frantically running around, trying to keep things from falling over or getting broken. Eventually he went to the entrance of the bar and looked out the front door. Lian had watched the guy scream and run off leaving her alone with the intoxicated diva on the mic. She shrugged it off helping herself to some more sake. "Guess they started his end of the world shit early... More booze for me then." She said before taking another drink.

( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9qsomTR51w&list=PLHO37SszSdOzILo46zxonx3uXQhiaEt1Q&index=12) Kin turned his attention to Suzume as she dropped down holding onto her stomach. "... Damn it...She's..." ' Going into Labor...' Okami said interrupting Kin. "... I don’t have time anymore. " He'd scoop Suzume up into his arms. "... Listen here Hanyou. Your in great Danger, your... Your going to Die. Unless I don’t break this right here and right now. Forgive me for this... Suzume. " He said to her. With her in his right arm he would have pulled his blade out with his left hand and shouted at the top of his lungs. " THIS ENDS NOOOOOOOOOOW! " Kin said kicking off the ground, in attempts of slashing at the barrier that held this world together so perfectly. With one single slash he would have broken the barrier and the chains around this floating world of have began to fall and break as well. " AGGGHHHH!! " Kin said as this caused strains on him as well. " FOOLISH BOY..." Hypnos voice could be heard throughout the area as the world Suzume and Kin had been on's barrier had broken and the chains were crumbling down, it was obvious that the Floating Island world was falling down to the Dream Worlds grounds. Kin rushed to the edges of the Island as everything shifted and he could See Hypnos Men with what looked like a baby wolf rushing to the Deformed Castle with the heart beat that Sian and Kin had seen before. " That... Baby wolf... that's... " Kin's mind began to rattle as he watched them Rushing to Hypnos castle. " That's our child Suzume... He's trying to take our child... " Hypnos stood at his castle watching Kin and the young girl with a smile on his face as he tilted his head up. " So Nice of you to Catch On Mortals. BRING ME THE CHILD. " Hypnos said as his men began to form in front of his castle. Hordes of Zombie like men began to form in front of the Castles gates as the baby puppy was rushed into the doors of the castle which were soon blocked off.

Kin: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fq3QmtV8vT0 ) "... No one... Fucks with my family..." Something Kin had been saying a lot lately. Kin would have closed his eyes as he imagined two SMG's in his hands and his blade of Keyome’s began to float around his form like a helicopter and a massive bag like older big enough to carry Suzume in had been placed around his waist and Yakuza Tattoo's appeared all over his Skin as he stared the Army down. ' Tasanagi... Careful here. Your Chi is Diminishing by the seconds. ' Kin leaped off of the edge of the Island as he floated back down to the earth. " SHUT UP! " Kin said as he hit the ground and began to Fire at the Army of Hypnos men with each bullet of the Unlimited ammo of the SMG styled dream pistols. He was shooting them left to right before he looked down at Suzume whom seemed to be going back to normal at this point a bit as her hair was starting to turn black in strands. "... She's dying....She- She's Dying.... NO GET OUT OF MY WAAAAAAAAYY!!!!!!" Kin said as he took off his SMG's switching into Blades as he began to Mow down the army like a Demon! Cutting through them like butter getting blood all over him and Suzume both. " KIN! " Keyomi Said leaping down from a hill on her Hellhound. " GET UP THERE! SHE DOESNT HAVE MUCH TIME LET ME HANDLE THIS ONE! " She said as a sloo of her own Solider began to battle with Hypnos men. " RIGHT! " Kin said blasting off into the air! As he did, Flying Soliders would began to Battle with Kin in Mid air, his blades clashing with there's until He'd shout at the top of his lungs and his chi would Obliterate them as Black Lightning errupted from his form. White Wings exploded from his back as he began to fly to the top. ' Hurry Kin! Your running out of chi! ' Okami said to him. As Kin took note of this he would have readied himself as another horde of enemies had made there way to him. Slicing through them left to right he would have pulled the blades back and with one good punch into one of there jaws, there bodies would have exploded in spurs of white explosions! Sweat trickling down Kin's face he would have sliced his way through the Doors of Hypnos throne room.

( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8wgcWty67A )" HYPNOS! " Kin said panting, his body coated in sweat. And there he had been, the God of sleep in his armor of elegance. He turned his head, smiling at the two of them. " Nice of you two to finally join the Party. Your Daughters here as well... And I have to say.... she is beautiful. " Hypnos said with a child in hand. A Satanic like smirk on his face. " Bastard..." Kin said dropping to his right knee.

( http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/saintseiya/images/0/01/Hypnos_%28TLC%29.png/revision/latest?cb=20140216234435&path-prefix=fr How he looked.)

" Please...." Kin said gripping onto Suzume's body as he panted. In the real world... Keyth would have taken notice of the flood of blood coming from Kin's mouth and just like in the real world it had been happening here as well. " I cant fight you Hypnos... Just give us our child, and allow us to leave. No... Take me... I'll be your vessel. " " Foolish boy, as much as I would love to. You are already occupied by another. " " This Demon means nothing to me..." Kin retorted back. Hypnos began to laugh before he placed the child in a bed of some sort. Rocking it a bit as he shh'd it to sleep. A smile breaking across his face after he kissed it on the forehead. " Now that the child is asleep..." He said snapping his fingers, and with his power separated Suzume and Kin from one another trapping them both by chains to the floor on opposite sides of the room. " I want you two to watch... As I take your Daughters soul. Devour it... And then replace it with my own. " Hypnos said as he hoveredover the child with that same sadistic smirk on his face. " Suzume would have been on the floor chained up, while Kin was able to sit up right. Shaking his head he would have sighed, his vision starting to blurr. " Okami... Wha-What's happening to me..." Kin said dropping down face first. " Your dying..." Hypnos said smiling. " Your entering the most beautiful form of sleep... Death..."

( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEsO0vTvTj0 )"You Dirty faggot Transexual bitch... your a man, and the first thing you do is go inside of a little girls body.... Fucking Pathetic..." " What!? " Hypnos said to the mysterious voice before he was rocked acorss the Jaw with inhuman strength! Keyomi's punch being so powerful that it actually cracked the realm of Dreams just slightly that her godly punch made a GOD Hypnos bleed. ( http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/139/4/d/owned_by_setonami-d65saa1.gif ) The Impact caused Hypnos to hit the ground before he rebounded back into the air. " STUPID MORTAL BITCH! " " Not the first time someone called me that. So what, are we fighting, or are you waiting for my fucking period to come on? That's when I reaaaaaaalllly get fiesty..." Keyomi said smirking before Hypnos grunted. " STUPID, STUPID WHORE! " He blasted off towards her, and Keyomi would have simply gotten into her stance smirking. " Come on then. "

The Baby is Born...Welcome to the World Little Keiko!!
Suzume: She had never felt this type of pain before in her life she just laid there curled up in a ball crying. The male demon walked up to her, picking her up. "Hanyou... you're going to die..." She didn't understand what he meant,. "I'm sorry... Suzume." That name... why did it sound so familiar and his voice was different than before and she felt her heart skip a beat when she heard it. She held tightly to him as he held her for some reason being in his arms was so comforting. Holding her with one arm she watched as he used his sword slicing through the glitching world. After he had done so the beautiful world that they had once been in began to fade away leaving them somewhere completely different. It was like hell in the biblical sense, monsters between them and a massive castle. What was going on? Was this even real? She was still in so much pain as he went along fighting the monsters. "This... isn't real... this... isn't... real." Suzume... the name why, was it so familiar? -"Because... its your name."- she heard a voice in her mind. "No... my name is Tsukiko." -"Foolish mortal girl... that... was my name. Don't you remember? I have always been a part of you, but you have always been yourself."- There was a pause, Kin and Suzume were now chained in front of Hypnos. "That's our child Suzume... He's trying to take our child." She began to cry the realization of the situation now coming to light. "I'm sorry Kin this is all my fault. If I hadn't been so stupid and got tricked like this we wouldn't be in this situation and we would be out already. Now... he has our baby.." Her words spilled out of her mouth between sobs. -"He doesn't have the child. Can't you feel it?"- Suzume opened her eyes. "You're right... the pain... is gone." She looked up at Kin. "She's just fine Kin. Our daughter's been born."

-In the hospital

Then sounds of a newborn's wailing could be heard clear down the hallway. Moto smiled looking over the nurses shoulder "Well she certainly has a good set of lungs." The nurse chuckled a bit, "Its a good thing, to hear a baby cry like that. Good sign they're healthy." Moto turned back looking through the window into the operating room. They had to do a c-section and managed to deliver the baby safely. The doctor was finishing up, with Suzume yet somehow he couldn't manage to be excited and happy. Moto sighed "Come on kiddo, you don't want to miss out on this. She's beautiful just like her mother."

Kin: Kin lie there, his once bright golden eyes a dull gray as his breathing slowed. He was blinded, his hair was dark like it had been before it was short. Just like it was styeld before he hit puberty and unlocked his power. In his right hand a pair of broken glasses and a smile on his face. " She's born....You lose... Hypnos..." Kin said breaching into the corners of death. With one final punch Keyomi blasted him to the ground knocking into his own massive beating heart. " NOOOOOOO! DAMN YOU MORTALS! DAMN YOU! " He said as the beating heart exploded on contact, and the child he had placed in the bed had faded away. The baby no longer in the dream world with her parents. Hypnos hit the ground panting, as blood streaked from his lips. " Stupid.. Stupid WHORE! " he said punching Keyomi to the ground and knocking her out. And with his right hand he aims it forward in attempts of firing a beam of chi at Keyomi. But... a White orb with black lightning chiming around it pulled from Kin's form and absorbed the chi, this being Okami exiting Kin's body killed him momentiarly as his body hit the ground in a slump. However, Okami had absorbed the chi and slowly... his physically form was finally being created... once again!

" HYPNOS! " A voice echoed throughout the room as his body slowly was reformed after abosrbing the godly power. " What... And who is this!? " Hypnos said with a sting to his words as he watched the One and Only Onigami Okami appear before his very eyes. ( http://static.zerochan.net/Inu.no.Taishou.full.1451599.jpg ) " I am... Onigami Okami. The Son of the TRUE Water god, and the God of Yomi. I am the master Stragist of the world and the greatest Oni to Ever live." " WHAT!? BUT YOUR DEAD! " Okami smirked as his aura exploded around his physical form, coating him a deep golden surge of lightning !

" I will make this quick..." As Okami took a step forward and would have shifted his form right over to Hypnos and with a few swings of his blades he would have decimated him into nothing, ending it off with one final black lightning coated strike that would have burned him into the abyss! Left strike right strike and repeat The God of sleep wouldnt be able to control the flow of battle as Okami ripped him to utter shreds!

" But I am... A god..." Hypnos would have set as the Black Lightning began to eat away at him before killing him completely. "... You are a False One..." Okami said placing both of his blades in their sheaths. He absorbed the rest of Hypnos chi and restored full Onigami hood to himself and took a deep breathe. " I'll be able to astral project myself Like Washi now at this point with all of this power restored. And I dont even have to return to that weak Tasanagi child..." He said looking at Suzume and then back at Kin. " Hmph..." He turned his back on him and as he got ready to take his leave Okami stopped. He could have left Kin and Suzume there to die, and the old him... Would have. But..." Humanity... has made me soft..." He said with that booming and powerful voice. "...Why do you remind me of Kagemaru... so much." He said walking over to kins lifeless form. "...Fine boy. We had a Deal... Remember it... " He said going back into Kin after giving it some thought. And as he did he would have sent some chi through Suzume as well to Eject her out.

" Remember.... our deal.... boy..."

Two Hours later.

Kin lie in a hospital bed, no one else was in there. And he seemed to be distorted. To his right... had been Suzume and he smiled. "... I thought I was dead..." He said sitting up. " You were. " Kin looked up to See Okami for the first time ever. He stood there with that Armour, and that flowing white hair of his. Those cold golden eyes that looked so much like his own. " But I saved you. I was able to go into Full Onigami power with that fool hardy Hypnos power. And now I am restored. Through the Dream World... I could have went back home to Fumei. But... You have grown on me boy. " To other humans that did not practice in chi, they wouldn't be able to see the Astral Projection of Okami but those who did would have. " You and that girl... and this beautiful baby..." Okami said sliding his fingers through it's hair. It Lie in between Suzume and Kin in a baby bed. Keyth had been on the opposite side of the room asleep, and hadn’t even been aware of Kin waking. " Remember... Our Deal Kin. We'll Discuss more on it later. You have one more day to the Sector Games. Enjoy it with your family. It may be the last day you get to do so. "And Just like that Image of Okami Dispersed, the chi going back into Kin once again. "... Suzume...?" Kin said stepping out of the hospital bed in his hospital gown. He walked over to the child, lifting it from it's bed. Holding it... For the first time. He rocked it a bit and sighed, it was so beautiful. It's skin so pure, and it slept so quietly. As he held onto it though, he was afraid he'd break her. With Child in Hand he walked over to Suzume's bed again. " Su? ... Wake up... She's so beautiful..."

Suzume: Suzume had been willing to accept the fate that was dealt, he daughter was safe and that's all that mattered. Her farther being the type of man he was would surely step up and raise Keiko in the absence of she and Kin. Having been in the dream world even longer than Kin she could barely move. She felt her life slipping away, it was this world it fed off them killing them slowly. She was such a fool, if she had only realized sooner. "Kin... I love you." Her eyes began to droop, and then....

"Wake up... She's so beautiful..." Suzume heard Kin's voice and began to stir. Her head felt fuzzy, she assumed it was from the pain medication the doctors had given her. Suzume tried to move herself into a seated position, while rubbing her eyes. There she saw Kin next to her bed holding the baby. She smiled, but then started to tear up, "She is beautiful."

Sian: Tomoko sat with Sian as the doctors and nurse were all rushed in the moment Suzume’s dad announced that Su-su had gone into the labor pretty much ushering everyone who wasn't immediate family out behind a curtain that encompassed the bed as they prepared for an emergency C-section in order to save both baby and mother. The silence between all those on the outside linking those gathered there in unity for just a moment as Sian often looked back in order to see if Kin had regained some kind of conscious yet. Her mind more with the both of her friends more so than the anger that she felt for Kin having choice her fate inside of the dream world for her rather than letting her do so. It was almost as if he were trying say she wasn’t strong enough yet something that humbled her and pissed her off all at the same time all because she knew that in the end though it was a hard choice to make Kin actually did care in his own way for her. He wanted her to live. Moko would simply touch her daughter’s arm the brunette haired woman grasp startling her for a moment before she looked up to see just where it had come from a smile greeting her lunar blue eyes just as the sound of a baby’s cry went up from the other side of the curtain. A sound the most certainly eased up all of the tension that was felt so strongly in the room as the three women began to all let off a laugh in celebration of the next generation being brought into the world. Hours Later…..

Sian stood quietly outside of Suzume’s room watching Kin through the glass who’d successfully beating Hypnos on his own in the dreamworld holding the new little bundle of joy in his arms next to Suzume who seemed pretty much okay now that the nightmare was officially. A part of herself not wanting to disturb the happily family as she wasn’t the best when it came to kids, though part of her wondered if that would have been different if her own child with Dai had lived. Moko herself had chosen to head home for the evening to her what was old penthouse apartment in D2 during her single years before having meet her husband in order to tend to her baby sister Melina after surprising not just Kin and Keyth that she was literally back from dead but Suzume too who up until now had never meet her mother Sian recalled. Needless to say that situation was completely awkward as the 19 year old learned why her mother called Tasanagi-san, a goof ball. The man was a totally space case as he didn’t remember her at all until she reminded of her first job with the Arasumaru. Sian chuckles remembering the scene. As to Sayuri-sama she had chosen to say behind promising Tomoko that she’d make sure that Si got back to Yun Tower safe and sound. The woman offering her services in regards to keeping Su-su and the baby safe while Kin and the rest of them were away at the Games Sian recalled solmley hearing her words, “You all must know by now that the Zeus and the other Olympians are in fact onihorudas who have gained mastery over their onis…the Takageuchi are the baby and Suzume’s best bet as they will be protect there by the Angry Bloom and my kin who are indebted to your ancestor for saving our own so long ago.” Whether she’d go or not hadn’t been decided yet but Sian knew she wouldn’t be able to stand out here much longer once Su-su saw her so she places a hand on the door for second time enters figuring it was about time that Godmama finally got in on the “oooo and awwwws action” with a smile on her face.
