Blood Blue Kuro no Ōji [ IC / Started / Not Accepting ]

[Desu the Blue Nerd]

-Sugito's Office-

Tatsuya was a bit happier after hearing that Tsukihana wasn't going to be in charge for long. He left to his dorm with that little hope to get his stuff.

-Norvea Station-

Tatsuya walked up to the others that were already there. Not only did he have his normal school back pack filled but he also a duffel bag that was filled. "I didn't know how long we were going to be gone so I brought about three days worth of clothes along my sleeping attire and a few basic hygeine stuff such as a toothbrush, some toothpaste, floss, and deodarant. And that's just my duffel bag. In my backpack there's a punch of books and some handheld games. I don't know how long the train ride will be and I'm guessing there'll be some free time so I can either study or play videogames. I can share some of my stuff too if you guys are good. [i]As long as you guys are out of my hair or I have something to do other than having to talk to you guys.[/i] Now where the hell are those other two? I want to get going and get this over with already."

[Hotaru987]

"I'm never happy." two replied to what Sugito said about Tsukihana not leading the team the entire time. Even so he supposed it would be fine. Either way Rei wasn't big on taking orders, or doing work. Once the meeting was over both Minawe and Rei had left the office and went to their respective rooms to pack.

-later-

"I'm sorry mister! I promise to have Mr. Onigiri pay you back for that." Minawe yelled from over her shoulder at the angry looking vender as he stared at hid destroied fruit cart. "You idiot I told you to watch where you were going!"

"I was! He came out of no where!"

A quick scene change - and tumbled and lots of wall collisions- later Minawe and Rei had finally made it to the train atation with literally seconds to spare. "S-sorry we're late." Minawe panted while bending over to try and catch her breath. On her back was a light blue backpack, which by the looks of it appeared to by just as heavy as she was. It was a wonder how she didn't tip over from the weight. Rei had a red ducked nag slung over his left shoulder. It didn't look as heavy as Minawe's but it looked decently packed. "We had a slight detur on the way." In her head she prayed that Prof. Uyagiri would forgive her. After a glance around she noticed that she and Rei were the last there. Great even Shota got here before her, but with a partner like Wills they were probably second only to Tsukihana.

[.:Blu:.]

"Well it looks like everybody is present and accounted for. Let's board the train then." Tsukihana said before going onto the train. "*Sigh* Why do I even bother..." Kinsei said as he boarded the train followed by Shin. Rikka boarded the train before Shota. Shota on the other hand, after hearing what Tatsuya had said about having video games, became rather jealous. "(C'mon Shota, you can't go through this ride without playing games can't you?)" Shota thought to himself before boarding the train. On the train, the group sat in a special reserve car in the back. Tsukihana sat down, crossed his arms, and closed his eyes. Kinsei sat down and opened the window just in case his motion sickness was too much for him to handle. Rikka sat calmly down and Shota didn't have much to do but sit down as well. After everybody had taken their seats, the train began to move along.

"Umm, would anybody like to eat anything? I brought some rice balls if you guys are hungry?" Shin asked with a smile. "I'll have one, thanks!" Shota said as he happily took more than one and began eating nosily. "Would you stop eating so loudly? I can't even think with you making all this noise..." Rikka said as she glared at Shota. "What? I didn't have anything to eat last night so I'm hungry." Shota responded. Shin looked towards Kinsei and noticed that he wasn't looking so good. "Umm, are you alright you look kinda green." Shin asked. "Ugh... Why can't I been born with wings, now I have to ride on this f*cking death trap..." Kinsei responded. "Does anybody have something that will help me take my mind off of this long ass ride? Hey you, Tatsuya, you said you brought some video games. Let me have something to play." Kinsei said.

"You could say please you know?" Shin said. "So who f*cking asked you-" Not finishing his sentence, Kinsei started to felt pretty sick. "Ugh..."

[Damiano Tosē]

[font="Tahoma"]Finally the prince of Greed shuts his trap, giving Eclipse complete silent. He know how he must defeat this "Vomica." But first, time to play around a little bit.[/font]
[font="Tahoma"]
[/font]
[font="Tahoma"]Eclipse reverted back to his humanoid form, cracking his neck, knuckles and back. "Goodness Voland, if you keep your mouth shut, you might actually accomplish something in your forsaken life." Eclipse scratched the back of his head, his Ruh-Qtil still in his hands, looking at Vomica. "So... your Vomica, judging from what I heard, your the fastest demon alive. I'm going to have fun killing you, then killing the ex-Demon Lord. I think i'll have fun with you first." Eclipse, being the strongest yet the oldest Demon Lord, slowly dropped his right hand that held his sword. As soon as his blade touched the surface, he was gone. Seconds later, effortlessly cutting Vomica without swiping his sword, time began to slow down as Eclipse moved swiftly behind Vomica, blood stains on his blade from its shoulder, he intended to kill it swiftly, but decided to severely injure it at the most. After the single cut was commenced, he took his walk behind her and stopped.[/font]

Matching his movements, tremendous velocity/speed along with immense strength, he is perceived to be a unstoppable opponent. [font=tahoma, arial, verdana, sans-serif]He is perceived to be so fast that one cannot discern even being attacked by Eclipse until after it has taken place. He is capable of effortlessly dodging simultaneous attacks at close range and the evasion of High level attacks. His velocity is so fast that opponents rarely do not know his movements until after he has made them. He kept his blade at his side, looking at the sooner injured Vomica. His power was released, turning into his demonic nature. His attire changes, [/font][font=tahoma, arial, verdana, sans-serif] [/font][font=tahoma, arial, verdana, sans-serif]his appearance changes more into something bat-like, feline and predatory. His teeth becomes more jagged and sharp, his hands turn into black, blood-stained claws and his feet become black clwed paws, similar to a cat, along with his slender whip-like tail. His ears become cat-like. He also gians large black wings on his back, his hair becomes longer and wilder. He can use his wings for flight. The blue flame hovers around his left hand.[/font]
[font="tahoma, arial, verdana, sans-serif"]
[/font]
[font="tahoma, arial, verdana, sans-serif"]"So...." He looked at Vomica with a unexpressional facial tone, his voice quiet. He kept his sword on the ground,
[/font]

[font="tahoma, arial, verdana, sans-serif"]
[/font]
[font="tahoma, arial, verdana, sans-serif"]"...how shall I finish you off?"[/font]

[Desu the Blue Nerd]

Tatsuya took a seat that was generally away from everybody else. He put his duffel bag in a compartment above him and his backpack he set to his side.From his backpack he took out a book and started reading it. He stopped when he heard Shin mention riceballs. He set the book dow and walked over to Shin. He grabbed one of the riceballs and ate it. "Not bad." He went back to his seat and started reading from his book again until now Kinsei was asking for the game. He reached nto his backpack and tossed the case to his handheld to him. "There's games in the case too. Take your picj. Just don't delete and of my files. And don't vomit on my games."

[Hotaru987]

Rei had made himself comfortable on an entire seat completely stretching out. He lft Minawe to put their bags up wich she didn't as she was usually doing everything wen it came to this stuff. "Yo, if you have an extra one toss it this way." He called to Tatsuya. Playing video games was one of the things Rei enjoied in dimension. Meanwhile, Minawe had happily took the riceball offered. "Wow Yamada this is good! Did you make these yourself?" She asked finishing up the riceball sighing a small mushroom cloud in satisfaction.

"You know what Kenny? You have a really vulger vocabulary just like Teriyama. You should to try to use less offensve words when you talk. People will respond better if you're polite."

[.:Blu:.]

Catching the handheld with one hand, Kinsei slowly regained his composure. "Ugh... At least I have something to do on the way to Niche-Nisu- Arrg whatever the hell the city is named..." Kinsei said before turning on the handheld. "Thanks for lending the game to Kinsei Tatsuya." Shin thanked on behalf of Kinsei. Hearing Minawe's compliment, Shin smiled happily. "Thanks, yeah I made them early this morning, I was gonna save them at home to eat but after hearing about the mission I thought it would be great to share some with you guys." Shin explained. "I'll take one before the pipsqueak here eats all of it." Rikka said, mentioning Shota. "Why you- I'll-" Shota began choking on his rice ball when he attempted to reply to Rikka's comment. "Here Shota drink this. Jeez, you gotta slow down." Shin said, handing Shota a bottle of water.

Quickly drinking it all, Shota breathed heavily. "Whew... Glad that's over with... Hehe, sorry, like I said, I'm really hungry." Shota replied to Shin. Taking a rice ball from Shin, Rikka blew icy cold wind onto the rice ball, freezing it completely. Then Rikka ate the frozen rice ball in such a casual way it was as if the thick layer of ice wasn't even there, causing Shin to look in awe. "I-Isn't that thing hard?" Shin asked with a sweat drop on his head. "Hmm, not really..." Rikka responded and took another bite. "Yeah, she's weird..." Shota whispered to Shin. Playing the video game, Kinsei became completely immersed with the game, even forgetting his motion sickness. "T-This is amazing..." Kinsei simply said, his eyes were wide open with splendor. "From where I come from, this type of technology was only heard of never seen..." Kinsei blurted out without thinking.

"Uhh, you see Kinsei comes from more rural places hehe..." Shin said hesitantly with a nervous smile. Then, when Minawe commented Kinsei about his way of speaking, Kinsei completely snapped out of his gaming state. "Oh thanks Mom... Now how about you- Ugh... never mind..." Kinsei said, becoming sick again from motion sickness.

[Nighttime]

It was now late at night, and almost everyone had fallen asleep. Shin slept calmly and quietly with a blanket he had brought. A surprising scene however was Shota who had fallen asleep on Rikka's shoulder and Rikka resting her head on Shota's head. All of the demon companions were also asleep with Lumi sleeping on Minawe's head, Redder sleeping in Shin's exorcist pistol holster, and Umbra sleeping calmly in a meditative sort of state. Kinsei wasn't asleep however. He was looking outside the window, contemplating about how he was going to get back to Abaddon. The last two days, Shin and Kinsei have been going to the academy library as a start but unfortunately, they couldn't find anything about making portals to return to Abaddon.

"You can't sleep?" a voice from behind Kinsei asked. Kinsei turned around to say Tsukihana sitting there awake as well. "What's it to you?" Kinsei replied. "I can tell that you look homesick. Where is your home?" Tsukihana asked. "You don't need to concern yourself with that. You know, Tatsuya, and especially Rei, really seems to hate your guts." Kinsei said as he turned to look outside the window again. "I can't blame them. If I weren't me, I would probably dislike myself too..." Tsukihana replied, a bit of sadness in that last part he said. "Why's that?" Kinsei asked. "Well coming from a noble family, people often see me as a prideful, arrogant jerk who looks down on everyone else, and at some points in my life I had once believed that was true as well... To tell you the truth, I would rather become an average farmer than be a prideful, narcissistic prince any day." Tsukihana explained.

"Watch it..." Kinsei whispered. "Excuse me?" Tsukihana asked, not being able to catch that last part. "Nothing..." Kinsei responded. Suddenly, noises could be heard coming from the roof of the train. "Do you hear that?" Tsukihana asked. "Yeah, sounds like we have company." Kinsei responded.

-Meanwhile-

Voland and Daemon stood back as they watched Eclipse battle with Vomica. Hearing his comments, Voland became extremely irritated. "You cocky bastard..." Voland said, one of his eyebrow twitching. Voland looked as if he was about to attack Eclipse. Vomica was cut by Eclipse many time without Vomica trying to evade the attacks at all, or was it that Eclipse was just too fast for the demon? Once Eclipse had stopped his assault, he entered into his true demon form, and with that, the air became dense and ominous. Vomica's wounds were bleeding profusely. Suddenly, the demon disappeared in an instant and reappeared behind Eclipse with a bladed hand. The moment from when Vomica disappeared to the moment where it reappeared was faster than a blink.

Vomica then performed a horizontal slash at the top part of Eclipse's head, looking to cut Eclipse's head in half. Voland couldn't help but smile at the scene, thinking it would be easier if the demon would just do Voland's work of getting rid of Eclipse for him. Daemon, as usual, had nothing to say and just watched the battle calmly.

[Damiano Tosē]

[font="Tahoma"]Eclipse blocked the attack with ease, but feeling a small cut on the bridge of his nose. He kept his balance while looking at the monster, his facial expression now rather peeved from the cut. "You just made me very upset." His force was strong enough, repelling the attack with his brute strength. When he parried the swipe, the impact threw the demon's cutting arm upward, giving it an opening. Eclipse used that opening as his advantage. Using his tremendous velocity and strength, he effortlessly cut Vomica's abdomen with ease, already gone when the sword sliced the abdomen. Time seemed to slow down, as Eclipse found himself swiftly moving to Vomica in all angles, effortlessly cutting the demon with ease.[/font]
[font="Tahoma"]
[/font]
[font="Tahoma"]His sword stained much of Vomica's blood, the effect of the sword changing Eclipse's demonic attire. [/font][font=Tahoma][size=2]Eclipse's hair turns silver, and becomes waist-length. Blackish-white bandages form around his body, tightly wrapped around his torso, right arm, and face, ending just beneath his eyes. Eclipse's sword, Ruh-Qtil begins to generate as a blade of black flames in his hand, enabling him to use Angel's Slice from the Divine at will, either up close or from a far distance. This was his way....[/size][/font]
[font=Tahoma][size=2]
[/size][/font]
[font=Tahoma][size=2]....to end the fight once and for wall. Enhancing his body further, Time seemed to slow down even more as Eclipse was already gone when his transformation to place. He found himself behind the demon when the demon was hopefully not looking, this time, no mercy will be given from what the demon just did to his face. He slowly lowered his cutting arm, motioning it upward in the air, an attempt to slice the demon. If the slice was a success, the contact would've severely burned the demon...[/size][/font]

[Hotaru987]

Ooc: I'm assuming you gave Rei the game.

After having her full of riceballs - which she had to fight Shota to get one- she had eventually fell asleep. The train ride was actually very sothing to her, and becaue of her size she was easily able to sleep lengthwise on the seats. Rei on the other had was the last to fall aslee as he had been very engrossed in he video game, having fallen asleep while still playing. Though with Tatsuya's loud snoring he had a bit of trouble staying asleep so he constantly woke up only to fall back asleep a few minutes later.

"Damn it. Even when he's sleeping he's still won't shut-up." Rei groaned only seconds before the other two still awake had heard the noise. Due to him not being able to go too deep into his sleep he was quick to respond after hearing what the other two heard on the roof of the train. He cursed under his breath and leaned forward to shake Minawe up. "Hey idiot. Wake up."

"I-is it breakfast time already?" She mumbled rubbing her eyes cutely and Lumi falling into her lap when she sat up. Rei shook his head, "No, see if you can wake the loud mouth. The other's should be waking soon" Minawe didn't understand why she was awake if it wasn't breakfast time but picked herself up, and ragged herself over to the sleeping, and snoring Tatsuya. "Hey, Teriyama wake up!" She yelled shaking him..No answer..

The time she plugged up his nose, but tha didn't get her anything but a slap in the face. "Ugh! You jerk that hurt. If that's how you wanna play it then fine. Luna!" Lumi hopped over, "The name is Lumi! Get it right."

"Luna-" Minawe continued desite what he just said, "Shock this guy awake." Lumi faced Tatsuya and the all too familiar appearance of Lumi's quills came. The thunder cloud formed over Lumi's very cute and adorable head. The nxt thing Minawe saw was a bright flash of light, and there was lots and lots of screaming. Minwe giggled and bent over with her hands on her knees, "Time to wake up Teriyama." She smiled and tilted her head.

[Desu the Blue Nerd]

Of course not even Tatsuya could sleep through being shocked so severely like that. It's more or less amazing that he still has a heartbeat. After the shocking was over he was just laying on the ground. His hair was raised up and sparks were still going through it. Smoke was also coming out from places all over his body. When the shocking was finally done he just layed their on the ground with his eyes barely opened and his sight extremely blurry.

He looked at Minawe who was still bendind down over him. "Did I die? I must be in heaven because there's a beautiful angel standing over me." He had a small smile of contempt on his face until his sight began to adjust to normal. "M-Minawe?! You're dead too?!" He quickly scooted away from her. "There's no way this can be heaven. I must be in hell if I'm stuck with Minawe." He began to get on his knees and started praying. "I'm sorry God. Please forgive my sins. Nobody, not even me, deserves to be stuck in hell with her..." He opened an eye to notice that they were still in the train and everybody else was their. "Uhh..." He shook his head and slapped his face a few times causing his hair to go back to normal and for the smoking to stop.

[.:Blu:.]

((There's a reason why this chapter is called Under A Moonless Night ))

Both Kinsei and Tsukihana had a comically terrified expression on their faces when they saw Minawe telling Lumi to shock Tatsuya awake. "M-Make sure I never sleep anywhere close to her." Kinsei said. "R-Right." Tsukihana said in response. Thinking he had died and arrived in hell, Tatsuya began praying to God about his sins and how being stuck with Minawe in hell is the worse thing that could ever happen to anyone. Kinsei had a sweat drop on his forehead seeing Tatsuya doing that. "Umm... Never mind he'll figure it out in a few seconds..." Kinsei said, staring at Tatsuya with a comically confused expression. Finally noticing everyone was watching him, Tatsuya slapped his face a few times to get his appearance back to normal. Shota, who had just awaken and saw what Tatsuya was doing began to point and laugh at him. "Hah! That was so pathe-" Before he could finished what he was saying, Rikka froze him.

"Quiet you idiot, there is someone or something on top of the train..." Rikka whispered before unfreezing Shota. "Sorry everybody..." Shota apologized. Tsukihana stood up and walk to the door of their car. Looking through the window, he saw the other passengers of the train were soundly sleeping. "Alright everybody, the situation seems clear. There are intruders on the roof of this train. We have to take care of this since we're the only ones of this train who can fight." Tsukihana explained. "The train is still moving, we have to be careful, and take into account that this is a pretty large train with more than ten cars, confronting these intruders will be more difficult." Kinsei said as he closed the window next to him. The mood became quite ominous as strange noises can be heard.

"The hell was that?" Kinsei asked. "Whatever it is, it's not a passenger..." Tsukihana said. Suddenly, the train violently stopped, causing the still sleeping Shin to fall to the ground. The others grab a hold of whatever they can to keep them from falling down. "Oof! Ugh... What's going on...?" Shin asked with an unpleasant wake up. Then, the lights in the cars automatically turned on. Tsukihana checked on the passengers of the cars ahead, and one thing caught him by surprise, even after the violent stop, they were all still asleep, almost in a motionless sleep to add to the strange situation. "Shota, check the back car now." Tsukihana quickly said. "R-Right." Shota replied before standing up and checking the window of the door in the back of their car. Shota's eyes widened after seeing a strange sight. "Tsukihana, they're all asleep." Shota reported.

"What? Even after that crash?" Shin asked. "I was afraid of that Shota... The people in these front cars are also still asleep for some reason..." Tsukihana said. The mood became even worse, darker and creepier. Suddenly, the automatic lights shut off, blanketing the cars in darkness. The only light source was the moonlight shining through the windows. "I know this may not be the time but this is the worse train ride I ever had..." Shota said. "I had a gut feeling that trains are a deathtrap..." Kinsei said. "Now what? All of the lights are out..." Rikka said. "The only light source we have is the moonlight." Shin said. However, the moonlight didn't last too long as it suddenly became darker. "What the-" Kinsei said before looking outside towards the moon. "Great, clouds are now covering the moon, so much for moonlight." Kinsei said.

"What do you think cause this you guys?" Shota asked. "It must be whatever invaded the train. I can't get this door to open. We have to check on those people." Tsukihana said. "The door operating system of the train must've shut down along with the rest of the train. Usually when a train has a sudden shut down or it stops for some reason, the lights and the doors are automatically turned on so people can get off of the train, but this is total and complete shut down of everything..." Shin explained. Kinsei looked at Shin weirdly after he explained that entire information about a train's operating system. "W-What? I like to read?" Shin said.

Suddenly, a low volume metallic banging noise can be heard way back, to be more precise, two cars back from the group's car. "What the hell?" Kinsei said. "We've gotta get to the bottom of this. But how do we get through these automatic doors without drawing attention to ourselves?" Shota asked, finally using his head for the first time.

-Meanwhile-

Even Vomica, Abaddon's fastest, well ex-fastest, demon could not stand up to the raw speed that Eclipse brought to the table. Seeing this, Voland became rather irritated as he clenched his fists and grind his teeth. Before Vomica faded into dust, it pointed at Eclipse and said, "Cornon... awaits..." in a very faint, demonic voice. Vomica then disappeared as, instead of black, white dust. "That thing can talk? It's last words should've at least reveal where Cornon is at..." Voland said, rather disappointed that they would have to wander and search again instead of heading straight to the person they came to eliminate. "No matter, I can sense his presence and he's close..." Daemon said before his wheelchair started to move in a north direction.

Walking by, Voland looked at Eclipse. "Guess you had good luck..." Voland said before walking off. The three traveled for about another hour before they reached some type of giant cave that was extremely dark. "I'm guessing this Cornon guy is in here right?" Voland asked. "Correct, let's go, but first, does anybody have some kind of light before we traverse any further?" Daemon asked.

[Desu the Blue Nerd]

After that last scare Tatsuya felt like that this was nothing. In fact it was something he could manage pretty well. "Not much light, eh?" He snapped his fingers and soon after some of his red energy was coming out of the palm of his hand managing to illuminate a small area around him. It was different though. It was filled with black spots. "It's not just my swords that my energy comes out of. My soul produces this energy in combat and my swords just purify this energy." Tatsuya was now crawling back to where he was seated earlier and grabbed his backpack. "As far as I'm concerned, we're now in combat." With his freehand he took out the hilts to his twin swords and stood back up.

Tatsuya's light from his palm went out for a moment and a second later it came back on out of his two swords but the energy output was extremely low. "I should be able to cut down the doors while still keeping our whereabouts a bit more secret. We seem to be the only ones not effected by this so it's either a trap or our souls are stronger than that of a normal person so a spell of some sort being placed on this train doesn't work and we just got unluckily mixed into whatever is going on. Or it's three and I'm having a nightmare. If it's the second or third thing I blame Minawe. Oh and we could possibly all be overreacting or there's a gasleak and we're all high or something."

[Hotaru987]

Hearing what that Tatsuya belived that he was in hell due to her being there Minawe was highly tepted to have him shocked again, as was blatently obvious by the twitch of her eyebrow. However, but that order could be given the other began talking and from there things took a turn for the worst. She heard Tskihana say someting about the other passengers still being asleep, which was a good thing as Minawe saw it. Now none of them would get in the way. The train came to a suden stop causing Minawe to lunge forward and fal right on her face - like she needed help falling. Rei had managed to grab onto something just in time so he stayed on his feet. Almost right aftr the lights shut off. "Great I can barely see a thing." Minawe mumbled standing up slowly.

After seeing that the passengers were still asleep even after that crash gave even greater suspiscion. It must have been some type os spell like Tatsuya said, because if it was a gas leak then all of them would be still asleep. Whatever was making those strange noises must have been responsible. "Maybe Rei and I can help. Let's face it if Tatsya cuts down the doors it's bound to cause some noise. But maybe Rei could power this cart enough to open the doors."

[.:Blu:.]

"I think you just got shocked a bit too much..." Kinsei responded to Tatsuya's idea about a gas leak causing them to become high. "Well, at least we now have some light to work with." Shin said as Tatsuya transferred energy into his sword to make them glow dimly. Shota, checking on the backdoor found it locked as well. "Yeah, we probably will need to cut these doors open. It's sealed completely." Shota said, giving up on trying to open the door. Then, when Minawe gave her idea, Shin began to thought of another plan. "Well, that seems reasonable, and it's probably gonna attract less attention anyways." Shota said about Minawe's idea. "No we can't... As you might've heard just a little bit ago, whatever invaded this train has already gone inside, and if we take into account what Shin said, the connection between the door and the lights will cause the lights to turn on if we power the car for the door. We'll be giving our position away to whatever is on this train." Tsukihana explained.

"I have an idea you guys, but I'm going to need either Minawe's or Rei's help on this. Considering Rei has better electricity control, I'm going to need him to help with this plan. Also, I'm going to need a screwdriver." Shin said before looking to Rikka. "*Sigh* Just don't put too much pressure on the ice, it will break..." Rikka said before exhaling cold air that almost instantly froze into a screwdriver form. "Thanks Rikka." Shin said as he took the screwdriver from her hand. Shin then walked over to a box that holds all of the electrical wires and gears of the train. "Each car has one of these electrical boxes, but we only need one to work for the whole train. I can only get all the doors to open but I won't be able to do anything with the lights. The lighting functions are controlled in the very front car and are not connected to the rest of the electrical functions of the train. The lights automatically turned on during an incident using sensors that can sense when a train has a sudden and abrupt stop." Shin explained.

Opening the box, Shin noticed that it was way to dark to see. "Alright, I'm going to need you over here to Tatsuya. Make just enough light to light up this box area, and Rei, I'm going to be needing you to cut some circuits." Shin said. "Shota, you watch the car behind this car just in case you see whatever it is that got onto this train." Tsukihana said. Shota walked over to the backdoor again and looked through the window. "Until the doors are opened, we have no other option but to stay here." Tsukihana said.

[Hotaru987]

Minawe was slightly embarressed. Not only was her plan a bad idea but it was Tsukihana who said that they should do otherwise. She shook her head. It was tupid to feel embarressed over that, besides they had more pressing matters to attend to. She tuned in too what Shin was saying right as he said he would be neding Rei's help to cut some circuts. Rei walked over an knelt beside Shin, "So I just cut all of these wires right here? He question his voice sounding as if this whole thing was an extreme bore. One Shin tol him which wires he needed to cut, if there were any specific ones, he began. Before long Shin's plan had worked and all the dors on the train had opened without the lights coming on.

[Desu the Blue Nerd]

Tatsuya did as instructed by Shin and walked over to him at the power box that was soon followed by Rei after the screw were off and the cords now revealed. He made sure to stand to so he wasn't in the way of either He did a little something not following the plan though. He held the small energy blade up to Shin's neck. "What happened in this traincart stays in this traincart. Does everybody get that? I know Mr. Sugito wouldn't be surprised if a few of us are killed by a demon." He had a grin on his face that was almost demonic.

[.:Blu:.]

With his surprising knowledge about trains, Shin began working to restore the doors into working order. "Alright, just a little bit more cutting here and some tightening here, and we're set to go." Shin said as he completed a new circuit that will enable to the doors to open. Standing near the front door of the car, Tsukihana slightly opened it to see if the modifications work, and it did. "Good job Shin, alright now let's-" Tsukihana was interrupted when all of a sudden Tatsuya held his energy blade up to Shin's neck. "Wh-Wh-Whoa, what are you doing Tatsuya?" Shin asked, scared that an energy blade is mere inches from his neck. Seeing this, Kinsei stepped closer to Tatsuya. "If you try anything, your head will be ripped off." Kinsei warned. "Ehh Tatsuya, I thought you were a lunatic at first, but now you're basically batsh*t crazy..." Shota said.

"Why do you all of a sudden say that whatever happens here should stay here anyways?" Shin asked, still scared for his life. "Hopefully, you give a good reason, because those things outside look hungry for some souls..." Kinsei said. "What are hungry for souls?" Shota asked which Kinsei replied with a simple point towards the window. With everybody looking at the window, a blind, grotesquely deformed demon was crawling towards the roof of the train on what appears to be four human arms. Seeing this, Shota pretty much got K.O.ed out of fear. "Well, he's not going to be helping..." Rikka said with a frozen sweat drop on her head.

After everybody seemed to randomly overreact to Tatsuya's simple death threat he was a bit confused himself. He hadn't bothered to look at the window yet though. "I was talking about what happened after that b*tch shocked me. What the hell do you guys think I was talking about? You're all acting as if I was about to rape somebody. And what's got everybody's atte-oh..." He was now looking at the window but more accurately the demon that was crawling onto the roof.

"Well f*ck. Bastard demons need to stop waking me up to fight. As punishment Il'l slaughter them all. Maybe a little torture though. On a slightly less serious note. It doesn't even seem to matter how we open the doors now. I'm pretty sure they know we're here now if they didn't already. But they may have knew already that." The energy from his sword stopped being emitted and he let his arm drop to his side. "So what's the plan now, Tsukihana? Because I wouldn't mind now going in swords energizing."

"Holy s*** it's just like Call Of duty zombies!" Minawe shouted as she watched the demon crawl up the train. It was sad to see that Shota had passed out, out of fear - considering how he'salways boasting about himself - but Minawe wasn't too far from joining him. It was pretty creepy.

Minawe didn't think it was a good idea to stay in this car. If they ended up having to fight in here it would get messy. There was't run to do much without potentially harming eachother and the passengers. While fighting on top of the train was equaly as dangerous, it was looking like the better choice. Even so she waited like everyone else for Tsukihana's decision. He wasthe leader after all. Rei snorted from behind her but otherwise he didn't say a thing.

[.:Blu:.]

Hearing Tatsuya's reason for holding an energy blade up to Shin's neck, Shin gave a sigh of relief. "Whew, sorry Tatsuya, for a minute there I thought you were going to kill me, but I'm glad we got this little thing sorted out. Oh, and don't worry, your secret is safe with me." Shin replied. "Alright, now that we figured out they're demons, we can effectively deal with them with our weapons. However, we all need to be careful. We still yet don't know the reason for the passengers' unconscious state. It might be the work of these demons so watch out for any strange movements they make. Now, to cover more ground, we'll need to-" Tsukihana's directions were suddenly cut short when the train began to rumble, like an earthquake was happening. "Everybody hold on to something." Tsukihana said as he reached to the closest object which was a pool attached to the seat.

When the shaking finally subsided, Shota awoke. "Huh? What did I miss?" Shota asked holding onto his head with a confuse look on his face. "Great, now these bastards can make earthquakes... I say we do this the old fashion way, kill every one of them that we spot." Kinsei suggested. "It's best if we eliminate them, but see if you can any way to wake the passengers after you eliminate any threat to the passenger's well-being. We split up into groups to cover ground much faster. Shin and Kinsei, you two try to get to the very front car to turn on the lights. Shota and Rikka, you two are task of eliminating the demons and protecting the back cars from here. Minawe and Rei, you two take the front cars. Tatsuya, you and I will go up to the roof and take care of any demons up there or surrounding the train." Tsukihana explained.

"Right, let's go." Shota said as he and Rikka walked to the back door and discreetly opened it. "We should get going to." Shin said, opening the front door so Kinsei, Minawe, and Rei can go. "I hope you don't mind a little bit of climbing Tatsuya." Tsukihana said before opening the window and squeezing out of the window to climb to the roof.

Tatsuya let go of the pole he had grabbed onto when the shaking began. "Woo, somehow five minutes have passed and I haven't been horribly injured by Minawe. This is celebration worthy." He started to listen to Tsukihana's directions and he sighed when he heard his matchup. "[i]Great. Tsukihana. Well it could be worse. I could be stuck in hell.[/i]" Tatsuya put his swords into his pocket and followed after Tsukihana through the window and onto the roof.

[Hotaru987]

"Unerstood. Come on Rei." Minawe said as she began walking to he next car. Noticing that Rei asn't folowing she sighed and grabbed his shirt sleeve, "Let's go you stubborn idiot."

"That's supposed to be my line." He said shrugging her off to walk himself. "So what we just wait here until somthing happens?" Minawe noded, "Pretty much. I mean we have to make sure that the passengers aren't harmed. Just keep a look out. Luna keep yourself hidden for now. You'll be our 'ace in the hole' if it comes to it." Rei leaned against the door on the opposite side they came from and took a quick glance up. It was quiet for now, but that probably wouldn't last long.

"What kind of demon was that anyway?" Minwe asked Rei, who shrugged. "Don't know yet. I did't get much of a good look. Keep your eyes and ears open." He closed his eyes to get a better sence of where everyone was. He could feel the electrical pulses the neurons in everyone's brains, as well as sense them. Using this he kept tabs on everyone.

[.:Blu:.]

((Sorry couldn't post earlier, my dad needed to use the computer))

"Alright, so you guys stay here and we'll head to the control car to turn the lights on." Shin said to Minawe and Rei before he and Kinsei walked off. For awhile, everything seemed calm, but not for long, as a metallic scratching noise could be heard outside the train. Suddenly, a grotesque human arm with a bony spike protruding from its wrist stabbed through one of the many windows of the car Minawe and Rei were currently in. Just mere seconds after that, another arm stabbed through the window next to it, and what appeared was a silent, bloodied humanoid demon with no eyes and stitches over its face. It moved its head around restlessly while facing Minawe and Rei as if it were looking straight at them. The demon was trying to get inside the car, luckily if it did, the car was quite wide, and Minawe and Rei could easy dispatch the demon if it came down to it. The demon was quite a brute as it used its arms to tear a hole big enough for the demon to crawl inside. Fortunately, the demon's spikes did not injure any of the unconscious passengers.

Seemingly smelling the air, the demon suddenly launched itself towards Minawe, sensing that Rei was a demon and so it thought Rei was on its side. Seeing the scary and grotesque-looking demon, Lumi's fur stood up while electricity charging through its fur. Lumi then jumped off Minawe's head onto Rei's head.

On Shin and Kinsei's side of things, after hearing the noise of the demon, Shin turned back to face the other direction towards Minawe's and Rei's car. "Huh? Minawe and Rei-" Shin was then interrupted by Kinsei. "They can handle themselves..." Kinsei said before continued walking to the front car. "R-Right..." Shin said before turning around and following Kinsei. Suddenly, Kinsei stopped and walked behind a restroom wall, followed by Shin. "What's wrong-" Shin was interrupted by Kinsei who quickly shushed him. "One of those demons are close by, I can sense it, we need to go about carefully, in this darkness, battling will be difficult for me, and we can't perform a possession right now." Kinsei explained before turning his hand into its demon form. "Alright, stay close behind me, if you die, I'm screwed so don't f*ck this up." Kinsei said.

Climbing up to the roof, Tsukihana noticed five of those demons on the roof. "Well, at least there's only five of them... We should be able to-" Tsukihana was stopped when he noticed ten more climbing onto the roof. "Very well, this will be a bit troublesome since we don't know what they're capable of so be careful Tatsuya." Tsukihana said before taking out his bow from his back. The demons sensed Tatsuya and Tsukihana and they all turned around to face the two. "So much for a stealth..." Tsukihana said as he readied his bow to fire. One of the demons lunged towards Tatsuya and Tsukihana, only to be shot down by Tsukihana. "At least they aren't difficult to hit..." Tsukihana said as he thought he had taken care of one already, However, the creature stood up without any signs of pain, even after being shot straight in the chest. All of the demons began to hiss and then charged towards the two exorcists with their spikes ready to impale.

Tatsuya laughed after Tsukihana mentioned being stealthy. "You actually thought we could be stealthy. I'm surprised you didn't already find it obvious that most of them would be up here. And how stealthy do you think we can really be? You use a bow and arrows with tons of flashy attacks and I use freaking lightsabers. That's not too unnoticable, is it?" After saying that his swords began to emit Tatsuy'a red energy. "You'll be giving me cover fire then. Be careful though. And watch your back. More of these guys may be crawling around." Tatsuya then charged at the demons, his swords were readly to cut them all into microscopic pieces.

[Hotaru987]

"Get ready." Rei said sudely standing straight. "I hear them." Minawe noded and looked around waiting for the demon to appear. Suddenly there was an arm, with a bony spike on the wrist, that broke through two windows from Minawe. "Crap.." She whispered the arm surprising her. Seconds later there was anoter arm this time three wndows away. It was trying to get insides and eventually it did. Miraculously none of the passengers were hurt yet.

Lumi jumped over to rei's head when the demon charged at Minawe. She Backed but in shock but quickly realized she would be hit if she didn't move. In a drastic move she charged the demon, then fell to the floor in a slied passing right up under it, and onto the other side. "H-holy crap...that actually worked!"

"Idiot get up. Don't stay on the ground." Rei said suddenly next by her. "Hit it with your chakrum and make sure it's lodgd in. The moment you do I'll aim lightening at it since mine is much stronger. And try now to hit the passengers." Minawe noded, "Right" She quickly threw one chakrum right down the middle hoping to get the demon's shouler.
