As soon as there eyes met Rosa blushed. She tried to hide it by turning away a little, but it was too noticeable.Rosa kept blushing do to Finare constantly complimenting her. [color=#FFA500][i]Wow, he really is a gentlemen[/i][/color] Rosa thought to herself as she she started playing with the tips of her hair.

As soon as Finare said that it was the most upsetting event in history in the cult and she saw the the actual cult she thought that they were going to sacrifice someone. As in killing someone and taking some organ out. Within second Rosa was hiding behind Finare looking over his shoulder, ready to stop looking at any time. It wasn't that though, but Rosa neither liked it or hated it.

Rosa was finally getting used to whole teleporting when once again they teleported. This time to a chamber where the leader was being hanged. [color=#FF8C00]"He deserved"[/color] Rosa whispered to herself. [color=#FFA500]"So we going to rebuild a cult that went extinct ages ago. I guess I can help"[/color] she said responding to Finare's statement about recruiting these people.

That's when Finare asked Rosa a question. "What is it which you seek from Zodiac?" This question was the one question that Rosa didn't feel comfortable with. It was her secret and it was only for her to know, but for Zodiac to help she would need to tell Finare. [color=#FF8C00]"The truth"[/color] she responded with a obviously fake smile. [color=#FF8C00]"When I was small I used to get whatever I wanted just by using my looks. I got so much that many people got jealous. They were so jealous that they were driven to the point to burn my house down. Nothing like my parents getting killed or anything. In fact I was the only one to get hurt. I was burned to point where I was unrecognizable. I actually got a fear of fire after that. Just looking at a lit match will make me freeze with fear. All I really want is to know who did this and to get revenge while I'm at it."[/color] As soon as she said that last sentence a tear fell from her eye, even though she had her smile.

It was then when a tear dropped from her eyes when they had once again warped from the little cave away [url=http://i39.tinypic.com/b6qbys.png]to what seemed to be the edge of the very plateau they once were standing beneath in that crevice, but...it seemed the land had ended, the sea was followed.[/url] It truely showed how long ago this was, as the water was in fact a lake, a lake which eventually, give or take a few millenia, would form the mountain range, or glacier rather, which acted as the behind mountains of Gorudoharu Town. Finare wiped the tear from her eye and turned her to face the enormous lake, him behind her his hands placed softly, yet firmly upon her shoulders as he said "Revenge fills the heart with hatred. Hatred turns the heart sour. Sour hearts turn the person into a hollow shell of their former self."

"Rosa, those people were misguided in their envy, as though they directed it upon your physical body, it is in fact your personality, who you are, which is worth envy." Finare then turned her to meet his scarlet eyes once again, his finger upon her chin lifting it somewhat as he said "I can assure you my lord will punish those responsible for such crimes, and if not I shall address them myself personally, so long as fate allows me to do such; feel no sorry, no worry, no distress on the matter from now 'til the end of time, for it shall be done. Besides..." Finare then wrapped his arms around Rosa's neck and into a hug as he whispered "...you're safe now, and will be as long as I live." as he stroked her hair gently somewhat comforting the girl.

Eventually he turned to the lake as he parted from Rosa's embrace, touching the water with his finger as he said "You're pure hearted, sincere; I'm glad you have sided with me. I cannot stress this enough when I say there is an enormous confusion in all this, however as I have said, that is for nothing but another time. Right now, Rosa, I need the one thing you have that people will not receive from either myself or Drago. It is your pure nature, your innocent air around you, which will attract followers." He then slightly turned his face so his eyes caught her form as he chuckled saying "See, people may be intimidated by me blank and neutralistic manner of vocalisation, if you will, and Drago's aggresive nature simply makes him an unsuitable candidate to each and every sense of the word; it's why I brought you here, through the safeguard of time, because this way Drago will not hear us."

Eventually Finare then turned and walked back to Rosa, finger still slightly wet from the cool water, as he drew upon her forehead the symbol he bore, as he softly whispered "Atarashī herarudo o happyō shimashita. Taitoru wa, rōza, anata ni sazuke, atarashī jidai ni shinakereba naranai Eien no eikō no shin jidai. Prophet of Purity, I declare you this mark." before smiling, the symbol glowing brilliantly before eventually receading, as if nothing had even touched her forehead. Finare then said "You're curious about what's going on. I'm enjoying it, seeing you trying to piece things together, it shows progress. Rosa, what I do now shall hopefully allow you to piece some things together." before swiping her off her feet, cradled in his arms, as he planted a soft kiss upon her lips, in doing so returning them to their headquaters.

After receading from the kiss Finare allowed Rosa to stand again before saying "You've had a hard day, rest, for tomorrow you both train; I'll go check on Drago unless you wish to join me. Think that thought, the desire to join your comrade, and I shall bring you here. To that, I shall grant thee my word." Following this Finare then smiled, before receading into dust, where he reappeared before Drago and Antalkalis saying "Gentlemen, I see you've yet to come to an conclusion to this bout?" Little did Rosa, or Drago know, that the training they'd experience was for a foe with such incredible power, such might, that he could even lay a scratch on Finare, which due to the Prophet's sheer power was essentially physically impossible.

Shinji nodded to Blake's statement, saying "Got it, will do." before receiving a growl from Speddio, who seemed to not want to go anywhere. Rolling his eyes, and swallowing his anxiety, Shinji then patted Seira on the back and said "Come on, we've got to do what we can to help Krystal and Andrew; I know you're strong, I can sense it, so let's put that strength to use Seira, I have complete trust and faith in you and I know together we'll be able to do this." before darting off. It was then when realizing what had happened, him actually touching Seira and saying such things, which caused Shinji to have a scarlet haze upon his face: Blake and Delta would see Kai's arm literally inside Shinji's back at that time, but that would be explained in due time.

For now, however, Shinji had ran up to Krystal and Andrew in time to overhear the twotalking. Shinji then called up to the two desperately: "Krystal! Anrew! Don't worry, we'll get you out of here!" before trying but realizing unless he was in his Starknight form he wouldn't reach them, even with his greater jumping capabilities. 'Come on Starknight, get let me save my friends!' Shinji thought as he looked up hopelessly to the two, before watching the intense fighting between Pyre and the Void Knight take place, which caused him to recall his scrap with the terrifying knight.

The reason he wouldn't take form is because Kai, too, remembered the fight clearly, as well as remembering the sensation of hopelessness he felt fightning the Void Knight; what he wasn't remembering at the time, what he needed to remember too, was his fight with Kazakawa, having being severely assaulted and on the precipice of defeat because of this, such damage that the Void Knight didn't even inflict he had sustained from the clearly superior opponent that was Daiki Kazakawa, Shinigami and combat expert, with the illusionist technique almost working to perfect. What Kai needed to realize was that sensation of hopelessness was squashed by the presence of others, others who helped defeat the Shinigami against the odds. It was this what he needed to realize in order to transform.

In response to Blake's question, Speddio simply said "It's simple Bla-Bla, I need your affection, your agape to power me up!" without realizing how unclear his explanation was. How was Blake supposed to know what agape meant? Heck, how was he supposed to know what Speddio's power was? Speddio didn't explain himself all too well, and Blake nor Delta, nor anyone here for that matter, to know who he was in depth? No matter, it was then when he growled at Shinji who went to try and pick him up, the boy eventually giving up and grabbing Seira's attention. Following this Speddio took off towards Blake, Pyre, and the Void Knight realizing that what Krystal was doing for Andrew, what Shinji was doing for them both, and hopefully what Seira would do too, would eventually power him up to an evolutionary stage.

For the time being, the agape love in the environment caused Speddio to glow pink, which then caused him to fire a pink fire-breath in the air, which soon followed by him, somehow, at godly speed spinning and causing the flame to create a fire vortex which eventually allowed him to begin to levitate and hover in the centre of said vortex; following this the fire entered Speddio's body and he fired a single orb of light, yelling "Agape Boost!" the orb shooting straight into Blake causing his Starlight Key to begin to shine brilliantly, which followed by the pup landing on all fours as he said "No charge needed, attack!" Now, though simple, those instructions were as clear as day: Speddio's boost allowed Blake a single attack to require no charge time whatsoever.

In response to Krystal's several questions, all that Andrew could do was shrug. He turned his gaze around the area in which they were, not the slightest fraction of light even being able to reach them.

"I don't know, Krystal...but I think this has something to do with the monster currently in control of my body. If I could just find it I might be able to wrestle back control."

In the mean time, the Void Knight simply shifted his pole arm into his right hand as he saw that Pyre was charging him. Perhaps there was a smirk on the entity's face behind the solid plate that was the front of his armored helm. Regardless, the armored being simply stood firm, until Pyre was within the reach of his arms that is. At that point, the being flattened out his right hand and lunged forward, driving his open palm towards the charging woman's face. Were this to impact, Pyre was going to find a brand new reason for some despair. The effect would be immediate, taking place the very instant that palm met face; Pyre's vision would go black, and she would suddenly lose the ability to hear anything at all. The only sense she would retain would be touch, and as such she would feel the incredible force behind the Void Knight's palm strike. While the strike wasn't going to send her flying, she would be brought to a full stop in the forward direction. What's more, there would be no visible change to occur in the female aside from any brought about by the sudden impact of face and palm. Now, in the event that he was successful in thusly incapacitating his foe, the Void Knight would once more take his pole arm in a two-handed grip before bringing it about in a horizontal sweep of the blade towards the girl's side.

After the tear fell from her eye Rosa blinked. Realizing that they had once again teleported. Their location was unknown to her until Finare turned her toward the water. Finare then began to speak that those who wronged her would get whats coming. He the proceeded to hug her and whisper to her that she is safe. Rosa stalled a little, but then hugged back and at that moment her smile became real once again.

Finare stopped and walked toward the water explaining how only Rosa can attract the followers needed do to her pure heart. Rosa mood was now better, in fact she laughed when Finare said that he didn't want Drago to hear. Finare then walked toward Rosa once again and started drawing something on her forehead with the water that remeained on his finger. She tried to look up to see what was being drawn, but ended up only crossing her eyes and looking silly. [i][color=#FFA500]Dam it, I can't see what he is trying to do[/color]. [/i]Rosa thought to herself.

As that thought ended Finare lifted her off the ground. Rosa eyes grew wide, [color=#FFA500][i]What is he going to do now!?[/i][/color] she thought. That's when Finare planted a gentle kiss surprising Rosa. At first her eyes remained open do to the shock, but quickly closed as she started to enjoy it. When the kiss ended and Rosa opened her eyes Finare had warped them to her room. He then left explaining that he was going to see how Drago was doing.

Rosa proceeded to sit on her bed and and yelled. [color=#FF8C00]"Dam that Drago! Why did he need to be here!?" Rosa started to punch her bed. "If it wasn't for Drago I could have been with Finare longer!"[/color] Rosa stood up from her bed and started to undress, getting ready to put some pajamas on and go to sleep. [color=#FF8C00]"Well I guess there's nothing to do about it."[/color] she told herself. At the point when she was only in her bra and panties she though to herself, Hmm.. I wonder how Drago is doing right now. Maybe I should should go check instead.

Within a blink of an eye she teleported to Finare and Drago's location. There she stood half naked holding on to her pajamas. She blushed and then screamed at Finare while hitting his back. [color=#FF8C00]"Send me back! Send me back! Send me baaaaaaaaaack!"[/color]

[color=#800000][i]"Perhaps a [b]slight[/b] change of plan is necessary,"[/i] [/color][color=#000000]Antalkalis figured, as he saw that Drago wanted to play a little copycat. No matter, that only made [i]him[/i] more predictable.

This time though, he [i]didn't[/i] look to ensure it would stick, but then again, being in close range, it was highly [i]doubtful[/i] it wouldn't.[/color]

[color=#000000]As he took a more defensive stance, Antalkalis happened to catch eye of a [i]mostly[/i] undressed girl, who was seen clutching some pyjamas and screaming to be sent back. Whoever sent her here [i]surely [/i]must've thought of it to be amusing.[/color]

[color=#800000]"Well [i]that's[/i] something you don't see everyday,"[/color][color=#000000] Antalkalis noted, [i]pretending[/i] to be distracted.[/color]

Blake was surprised at Speddio, as his "Starlight's Key" almost came out of no where. [color=#008080][i]T-This appears when I'm a Starknight...Speddio was able to bring this out while I'm not in it... [/i][/color]he thought, looking at his Starknight weapon. He finally noticed that he was in his Starknight form, which baffled him. [color=#008080]"Grandpa...I need some help." [/color]he said, feeling Delta's spirit in the blade.

[color=#006400][i]One second... [/i][/color]Delta said as the aura from the blade disappeared, meaning he left the blade(Though Speddio's charged thing is still there.) As this happened, he appeared in front of Kai and glared at him. [color=#006400][i]KAI! Blake and everyone else needs help! I know you're first fight with the Void Knight didn't end the way you wanted...but if you don't help, we'll all be dead, including her! [/i][/color]Delta pointed at Pyre, and then sighed. [color=#006400][i]If you don't face him again, you'll keep blaming your own abilities for that. [/i][/color]He heard no reply from Kai, then he glared before he disappeared and merged again with the blade. [i][color=#006400]We're on our own for now... [/color][/i]

Blake nodded as he rushed towards the Void Knight, slash upwards as he landed beside Pyre. [color=#008080]"Krystal's Celestrian...came to lend some help. Any suggestions to stop him?"[/color]

Drago noticed Antalkalis dodge his knife strike, but didn't notice(again) that he was struck with another explosive sphere.

But he then heard a familiar female voice, Rosa. He glanced over and saw Rosa in her pajamas, then seeing Antalkalis staring at her. [color=#800000]"Hey...o-over here...ET..." [/color]Drago groaned, slowly standing back up, gripping a building's outside wall to keep him standing up. [color=#800000]"I-I'm your opponent...so don't take your eyes off...m-me..."[/color]

Finare chuckled when he felt the fists of Rosa's tender little hands strike his back, the pinky red blush on her cheeks certainly matching her underwear which she unfortunately had changed in to with the obviously placed pyjamas at hand to simply change into them; her thoughts drifted to the conflict and as Finare stated she had been sent there, literally. Letting out a sigh, he then heard Antalkalis' note which caused his eyesbrows to cock a little, surprised the alien had quite the witty sense of humour, but his gaze soon darted over to Drago who'd bark at Antalkalis to keep his attention set on his opponent; by the way he was sounding Drago seemed to be pushed.

He knew Antalkalis would challenge Drago, but to this extent? He knew any longer, and he'd have to end things. Right now his attention changed to Rosa, as he turned and faced the girl who was frantically yelling to be sent back. Finare gazed up and down her before smirking, the pyjamas suddenly covering her very...curvacious figure. Following this, Finare then said "For such an innocent young woman, you have certainly got quite the mature body; regardless it is merely a small portion of your charm. Now, please, if you wish to watch, return here in your gear, rather than bedwear or underwear." with a chuckle before touching her forehead and returning Rosa to her room.

Returning his gaze to the battle at hand, Finare spoke to Drago telepathically as he said "You've tested him long enough; finish this now, or I shall." before giving Drago a serious and cold gaze from his crimson eyes, ensuring he would certainly finish the job as, spread his right hand from his body, appeared a pitch black kantana, the sword then causiing a burst to envelope Finare's hand which changed his loose robe-wear into a skin tight bodysuit, as black as before with golden and crimson trimming, the symbol upon his forehead in his sword's hilt as well as a golden emblem on his back. A final nod to Drago, and Finare then waited, waited for this battle to be raised, or to end it within the instance.

Then he felt the presence of two extraordinary powers; one was light, holy, loving and friendly, enamourous to the touch as it amplified a weapon, whereas the other was consuming, devouring. The first was Speddio's Agape, however the second, he was unsure, whether it was the consuming nature of Hawkeart or perhaps even someone else...was it a Void Knight? No matter, he thought before returning his attention to the conflict at hand.

Krystal frowned at what Andrew said. It didn't seem they had much of a chance of getting out of this weird world on their own. Looking at their feet, Krystal began to visualize where everything had been before she took Andrew's hand. [color=#008080]"I uhm.. If I remeber right.. The scary knight dude was just a few meters in... This direction,"[/color] Krystal finished off with pointing in the last general direction she knew of where Pyre and the Void Knight were fighting.

--------------------------------------------

Speaking of the fight, Pyre was surprised when the Void Knight suddenly made a move against her when she was just about to jump in an attempt to tackle him to the ground. Dropping to her knees and leaning back, she hoped to avoid his palm. However, she didn't drop enough and his palm ended up smacking upside her head, instead of doing a full-on slap to her face. Despite it not being the slap the Void Knight intended, Pyre still lost her hearing and vision for a few moments. Landing on her knees, she rolled forward a bit, hoping to regain her senses before the Void Knight could attack.

As the Void Knight made his next attack on Pyre, Blake cane in with an attack of his own. Hopefully, this would interupt the Void Knight, saving Pyre from a painful injury. If not, Pyre's face would tense up from the sharp pain the Void Knight inflicted on her.

The Void Knight was in mid-swing when the sound of hurried footsteps reached him. Thus it was that he spun about and instead brought the full swing of his weapon against Blake's, using the weight of his weapon to his advantage. The heavy pole arm collided with Starlight's Key and forced the upward strike to a stop. The silent, armored monstrosity now used the advantage of leverage and weight to force the Star Knight's weapon down and thus leave him open for an attack.

The Void Knight now removed his right hand from the shaft of his pole arm, planting his right foot on the point where the weapons were joined by the impact. Within his palm, an orb of absolutely black energy began to coalesce so that he could unleash the very same beam which he had originally used to strike at Pyre.

Meanwhile, Andrew turned his gaze in the direction which Krystal had pointed him and saw only the blackness of the void which was currently consuming him. His emerald gaze turned back to the girl, and soon a big stupid smile crossed his face and showed all of his well-cared-for teeth.

"Alright, I'll see if I can't take my body back...oh and thanks for helping me, Krystal." With that Andrew turned back in the direction that she had pointed and, shaking her grip from his arm, sprinted with all due speed towards where he thought the Void Knight was. Once her grip was loosened, Krystal would suddenly see and hear everything around her normally once more, including how Andrew was sprinting right towards the back of the armored figure.

[color=#800080]"Despair, for the night has come for you."[/color] Emanated from the mouth hidden behind the Void Knight's vizor in that breathless whisper which somehow managed to carry for an incredible distance. However, just as it seemed that the beast was about to unleash the destructive beam of black energy, he faltered and the energies began to disperse.

"You're not hurting my friends!" Came Andrew's voice as the armored figure's hands shot up to either side of its head and pressed against the helm, dropping the pole arm in the process. The guttural sounds of two strained voices struggling against each other came forth from beneath the helmet, which was slowly cracking. Before long, the Void Knight's voice faded away with a final angered cry and the helmet shattered completely. Beneath, Andrew's suffocated, blue face was visible. However, a change was quickly overcoming him; the color returned to his face and hands as the purple aura faded from around his armored body. Gradually, the armor itself began to crack and fracture before falling away from the boy's body in a cascade of metallic slivers which shattered into dust upon contact with the ground. Thus freed from the armor, the boy fell to his knees and began to pant, exhausted from the brief mental battle he had engaged in to steal back control. As he sat there, kneeling, the pole arm reduced in size until it had disappeared altogether.

[center][u][b]Shinji, Kai & Speddio[/b][/u][/center]

Shinji himself was in awe of the Void Knight's prowess, so much so his shyness acted up and he had butterflies just watching the sinister entity clashing with Pyre; it was unlike anything he could imagine, like he didn't fight in a releasing manner, but rather in a consuming attempt, devouring his enemies and their attempts to even scratch his mominous armour. But in all honesty, the boy didn't really watch and marvel in Pyre's attacks, but more so in her attire. He didn't understand though, how Krystal and Pyre were seperate, why Blake had his grandfather's spirit. And him? Something he can't even hear or see or feel. Why wasn't Kai corporeal in the spirit world, wasn't he a spirit himself?

Kai himself wasn't even concerned about his absense of solidification within the Seishin Sekai, he was far too concerned with his fears about the Void Knight, how each and every single attack he tried to throw had turned into a worthless attempt, how anything he did would turn useless. 'How...how can she fight him like that without fear or care that it won't work?' Kai pondered, refering to Pyre of course. Delta's apparation in front of him had shocked him to the bone, the green eyes of the Starknight wide as he told him they needed his help for their lives' sakes. Not only did this weight affect him, but the whole idea when they seemed to have managed without his presence...it confused him.

'W-w-what's wrong with me? Why am I loathing myself? I'm Kai, the kick-ass optimistic green Starknight; why am I in this funk?' he thought to himself, eyes pinned to the ground, looking over to his child as he said "I hope I don't let you down boss, but all I do is give you a confidence boost; how can I when I'm scared?" Of course Shinji couldn't hear nor see his Starknight whatsoever, but rather ran over to Andrew's side, the poor boy panting out of breath after having recovered his body, unsure whether he was okay or not; fact was Shinji was really concerned about Andrew's well being right now, but this confidence was unlike him. Kai then muttered "Is this...the Per...sona Curse?"

As soon as he was by Andrew's side Shinji waved his hand in front of him asking "Erm...Andrew, are you okay? Come on, let's just go ho-AAAAHHH!" All of a sudden his rear end had been bitten by Speddio, Shinji running up and down frantically, waving his arms and streams of tears as the dog chewed into his buttocks relentlessly yelling "Get it off! Oh God get it off!" over and over. Why what his problem? This dog really didn't like him or something...well, it wasn't just Shinji, as when he detached from his rear end the pooch pouted and said "I'm hungry, what do you expect! Plus, I don't know how you're getting out of here without my help! Seishin sekai, chikai!"

And like that, the world around them became the dusk it once was before, the sun having set and the nice cool breeze around them swell. In the distance you could hear the crickets and the birds harmoniously singing in nature's grace; Speddio perked up at the sound and, turning to Krystal, leaped into her chest expecting her to catch and cradle him in her arms, and hoping he wouldn't fall in the attempt! It was clearly time to end things, and this time Shinji hoped this Friday would lead into a Saturday. Walking over to Blake, Shinji shook his hand saying "Nice work pal, you really saved my skin back there with Kazakawa!" with a chuckle, before realizing it and squeaking quietly, bowing his head and saying "Goodnight Blake, I really appreciate what you've done, and I hope you have a good weekend." Shinji then decided to walk out the school gates, like before, but without the others, not because he wanted to be alone, but he genuinely forgot the fact they all shared a walk from school together. I suppose this was ammended by Shinji tripping and rolling down the hill, bouncing into the lake as a result.

[center][u][b]Finare[/b][/u][/center]

Finare yawned as he desperately desired the battle to end, frustrated now that he could be resting his head in his regal bed, or tasting a sweet and delicious wine, or even just having a walk and reminicing about the old days; instead he stood there waiting for this dull clash to end, having changed his very armour itself awaiting to intervene and end this himself. He felt Rosa herself would be impatient, maybe not as much as himself but regardless. And so, running his fingers through his black ponytail, he said "Drago, you do bore me sometimes..."

"...yet what can I expect; I knew Antalkalis was a challenge, I knew he would test you, make you fight and work for it, be a challenge; I never would have imagined that I would have been able to watch him easily counter one whom I'm to call a Prophet, Prophet of Strength; it seems to me you're proving yourself extremelly unworthy of the title Drago..." It wasn't evident, and frankly looked and sounded like he was blantantly insulting Drago, but in fact Finare was seeking to rile up the man, to make him get much more aggresive, much meaner, harsher, and brutal.

"...very well, if you clearly cannot handle this yourself, I will clean your mess for you." he finally said with a chuckle, hoping this would push Drago over the limit, eager to witness the change from sanity to outrageous force; Finare's manner with Rosa was as if she was but a delicate flower, but Drago needed harshness, needed strict and coldness from him. Finare felt anger towards Drago, and hoped it wasn't his own caused from disappointment but rather the anger Drago was feeling building up inside.

When Andrew giggled his hand free from hers, she was temporarily blinded by the sun as she was back in their world. Rubbing her eyes, she looked up just in time to watch Andrew get a hold of the Void Knight and struggled his way back into control. She let out a sigh of relief, knowing that somehow, the day's activities came to an end. Well, hopefully to an end anyways. Suddenly, Krystal felt a hand on her shoulder, causing her to jump. Looking behind her, she spotted Pyre, who had a smile on her face. Talking through each others' mind, Pyre said, [b]"Good job Krystal.. Ya did well."[/b] This cause Krystal to blush for a moment. Pyre then wrote to the others, congratulating them on them doing a good job as well. As Speddio returned them to their world, Krystal resumed control over her body, just in time to catch Speddio as he jumped into her arms. Catching the dog, she stumbled for a moment before regaining her balance. [color=#008080]"Speddio! Give me a heads up next time, alright? And ya shouldn't bite people's butts just because your hungry.. Just lemme know, alright?"[/color] Readjusting how Speddio was cradled in her arms, she looked to Blake, [color=#008080]"So where do ya wanna have dinner at tonight, Speddio? My place or Blake's?"[/color] She then looked to everyone else, [color=#008080]"Also.. You guys have a lot to explain to me cause I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO confused as to what happened yesterday.."[/color] Just as she finished her sentence, she heard a splash in the lake behind her. Turning around, she seen that Shinji fell into the water. Running to the lakeside, carrying Speddio still, she yelled out, [color=#008080]"Oh no! Shinji! Are you alright?!"[/color]

Blake was somewhat relieved it was over. He fell down on his butt, reverting back to normal as he began to catch his breath. [i][color=#008080]Y-Yeah...this is becoming to be a weird life for me now... [/color][/i]he thought as he looked at Krystal and Pyre. He then heard about what Krystal said about explaining everything that happened. [color=#008080]"I-I'd be happy to explain everything to you Krystal...Mr. Kazakawa gave me and Shinji a bit of information about what was going on." [/color]Blake said, before watching Shinji fall into the lake. [color=#008080][i]I-Is he going to be alright?[/i][/color]

[i][color=#006400]Yeah...the one with the Curse will be alright. [/color][/i]Delta's voice was heard, he had walked over towards Kai and smiled. [color=#006400][i]Seems you came in at the right time there, my young friend.[/i][/color]

Drago gripped his pistols tighter, as he listened to Finare say these things. These were almost the same things those at Azure Inc. told him after he was taken for experimentation. [color=#800000]"Shut up..." [/color]he mumbled, hearing Finare continue on with his second sentence. [color=#800000]"Shut up...." [/color]he repeated, but when Finare continue, he completely lost it.

[color=#800000][b][i]"SHUT THE F***IN HELL UP!!!" [/i][/b][/color]

Drago dropped his pistols on the ground and then ripped the mask away from his face, throwing it on the ground. He roared slightly as he glared at both Finare and Antalkalis with eyes filled with A LOT of bloodlust. Then he rushed towards Antalkalis, knocking him onto the ground. [color=#800000][b]"YOU WANNA SEE A CHALLENGE?! HERE'S WHAT I THINK OF YOUR F***IN CHALLENGE!" [/b][/color]he roared, punching and growling as he beat Antalkalis. [color=#800000][b]"I want you dead...and then...I'LL KILL YOU FINARE!!"[/b][/color]

Seira betrayed no emotion as she watched the fight conclude, having not noticed Shinji trying to grab her attention earlier. Her consciousness was already starting to waver at this point, brief moments of her memory blanking out. She had a brief moment of shock when the Void Knight turned into one of their classmates, Andrew, causing her to question what was happening. Everything was just moving too fast for her to make rational decisions on what to do. Things still didn't make too much sense when Shinji went to go and try to help Andrew. [color=#4b0082][i]Why is he trying to help him? Isn't he an enemy,[/i][/color] she thought to herself, resisting the urge to strike down at the defenseless Andrew while Shinji was there. [color=#4b0082][i]Why am I holding back? He was just trying to kill Krystal?[/i][/color]

Seira remained silent however, suppressing a giggle when the strange dog bit Shinji in the butt, only wondering how much stranger the day would become. Hopefully it would finally be the weekend as well. She needed the time to start setting out the ingredients for her meals over the next week. It was only simple alchemy but she she had never left it unattended before. She was still musing over this when Shinji tripped and fell into the lake by the path. Seira reacted instantly, jumping down the hill, careful to not trip herself. She leaned over at the lake's edge, holding out her hand for Shinji, scratching her arm on a rogue tree branch.

It took Andrew a moment to readjust to the light and sound around him, having been trapped in a dark and mostly soundless dimension for the past several minutes. However, when he became once more aware of his surroundings he noticed the large number of his classmates gathered around him. As Shinji approached him, Andrew turned his gaze to the young man. He was about to answer him, when he was suddenly interrupted by the pained cry resulting from his being bitten on the buttocks by the godbeast.

Andrew finally noticed that the world around them was colorless, just as the Seishin Sekai was undone and color flooded back into the world. Rather than stay around with his classmates, being particularly wary after he saw the look that Seira had shot in his direction before running off after Shinji. He was briefly envious, and a bit confused, that the others were more worried about Shinji's rolling into the lake than his own sudden return from a maddening prison but he wasn't about to call attention to it. Thus it was that he rose to his feet and, though a little shaky, began his walk home to leave the group behind and work out some way to prevent losing control of his quazidemonic alter ego.

Rosa, who was transported back to her room, was laying down on her bed. She was staring at the ceiling wondering what she should do. She could either rest and be prepared for tomorrow or go and join Finare and Drago.. What they were doing was unknown to her. What was going on with Finare was also unknown to her as well. [color=#FF8C00]"Ahhhh. I want to sleep, but I can't."[/color] She screamed as she threw her pillow to the wall.[color=#FF8C00]" I would go with Finare, but Drago is there." [/color]Rosa still ended up deciding to go with Finare so she got dressed in her normal clothes, got her sword and thought of going to Drago.

Within the blink of an eye she was there. Drago was laying on top the alien smacking him. [color=#FFA500][i]What happened... oh well at least I'm with Finare.[/i][/color] She though to herself as she stood next to Finare.

Soaking wet like a lost puppy, Shinji's little incident had, ironically, drew in much more attention than he really intended, infact so much so that both Krystal, Speddio in arms who sniggered at the sight of the boy in the lake, and Seira had rushed down to make sure he was alright for the matter; his butterflies began acting up, so he began to float down a little to cover his blush from the event that had unfolded; how embaressing, having fell in the lake so clumsily! Shinji hoped they wouldn''t really judge him on this, he knew he'd probably die of the embaressment.

Taking hold of Seira's hand he climbed out of the water, bashing his nose into the tree branch, as he got himself out the water, his once nice and tidy yellow jumper number now drenched as he looked over at the horizon, the pinky red sky from dusk still giving them light. Shinji then rubbed his nose before turning to Seira and saying "Thanks a lot for that Seira..." before soon noting his cheeks glowing red from blush; he hadn't let go yet! Jerking his hand from Seira's he said "Sorry about that, I completely forgot I was...oh nevermind, but sorry anyways." with a nervous little chuckle, before suddenly noticing Krystal, too, was there.

"AH! Sorry Krystal, it's not like I was ignoring you or anything." Shinji said with a nervous smile, before suddenly hearing Speddio's sniggering, a snide look on the boy's face in return to the dog before saying "I suppose I should head home then, I wouldn't want to get sick with a cold or something on the weekend or anything." which followed b him looking back up to Blake and waving him goodbye, then saying "See you later Seira, and thanks for helping me out; goodbye Krystal, I hope you both have a nice evening." and ended this all with a respectful bow before making his way, lakeside, back home.

Kai, in the meantime, had been caught by Delta who encouraged him somewhat, to which he replied "Did I? Delta, let's face the facts, that guy just really makes me feel uncomfortable; I feel hopeless whenever I'm near that guy, because it seems none of my attacks can lay a single hit on him. I don't think I came in at a good time at all, but rather just watched from afar..." Realizing he had said this, Kai looked over and saw Shinji waving to Blake, to which he said "I'd best make sure he gets home then; take care Delta!"

And so the duo, Shinji and Kai, decided to make their way home from the others, Shinji running to get into the warmth faster, and as he walked through the gates, saying hello to the fishermen, he opened and shut the door, embracing the warmth of his home, and his mother saying [i]"Shinji-pie, you're home...and you're soaking wet? Shinji, you weren't skinny dipping with a girl, were you?"[/i] "NO, Mom! Of course I wasn't!" [i]"Oh, what am I saying, you're far too shy to do something like that!"[/i] "And what's that supposed to mea-" [i]"Nothing at all dear, now get into something warm or you'll freeze! Also, make sure you say hello to Grandpa."[/i] "Will do Mom...wait, what!?!"

[center][i][u][b]Finare[/b][/u][/i][/center]

Much better, finally Drago had literally became a wild freak of nature, an unleashed force of ridiculous and increcible ferocity; his threats were impactful, empty yet impactful, and Finare, to them, said "Much better Drago, you can feel that inner hatred doubling...no, tripling your strength, yet you're missing one thing right now: self control. We wouldn't want perhaps our strongest soldier, my knight, to take out a single pawn solely to become vulnerable by all sides from other pawns, rooks, bishops, etc. Now I can see your strength, raw, and I can say it's a sight to be marvelled in Drago; if you want, I'll give you your shot to kill me one day."

As Rosa came back once again and stood by him, Finare closed his eyes and had his kantana disappear, his once armour-like attire reverting into the loose robes as he said "And now the queen has came into play; say, Drago, I'm sure you would not wish to terrify young Rosa over here with your overwhelming savagery; tone it down a little, I need to ask Antalkalis something." Then Finare motioned his head to Rosa for her to join him as he walked up to the feral Drago, smiling as he gazed down to Antalkalis as he said "So, do you see the power I promise you yet? Please, join us, and I can promise not only this, but ten times as much power."

Hearing him snicker, Krystal softly flicked Speddio's nose, [color=#008080]"Be nice Speddio! It's not nice to laugh at other's misfortunes.."[/color] "AH! Sorry Krystal, it's not like I was ignoring you or anything. . . goodbye Krystal, I hope you both have a nice evening." [color=#008080]"Uhm.. Bye.. Cya tomorrow, then? I guess? Tomorrow's what.. Saturday? Yeah.."[/color] She waved goodbye at Shinji before turning back to the others. Readjusting how Speddio was cradled in her arms, she spotted Andrew walking away, presumably home. Frowning a little, she had to think up a way to say thanks to Andrew for saving not only her life, but probably his own as well. [color=#008080]"I uh.. Gotta get going.. Cya y'all later!"[/color] With that, Krystal wiped out her motorized scooter, put Speddio in her bookbag and took off for home.

A few minutes later, Krystal was opened the door to her home, Speddio at her side. [color=#008080]"I'm home,"[/color] she yelled out as she took off her shoes, [color=#008080]"and I brought home Speddio! I guess he'll be joining us for dinner this time."[/color] [color=#800080][i]"Welcome home sweetie! You're home later than usual."[/i][/color] [color=#0000cd][i]"Yeah you are.. Everything alright?"[/i][/color] [color=#008080]"Y-Yeah.. I was just uh.. hanging out with some friends.."[/color] She blushed a little when she said that. When was the last time she had friends? Or at least considered people to be friends? [color=#800080][i]"You have friends?! When did this happen?"[/i][/color] [color=#0000cd][i]"We're elated to hear this!"[/i][/color] Her, Speddio and her parents all gathered up in the kitchen for a happy dinner. Speddio even got his own little personal meal of meat and vegetables. After dinner, Krystal went up to her room and sat on her bed, petting Speddio. [color=#008080]"Today sure was.. interesting.. Wasn't it boy?"[/color] Reaching into her bag, she pulled out her sketch pad and began to draw Speddio as she giggled out, [color=#008080]"Make a pose, Speddio!"[/color]

[color=#800000]"GET [i]OFF[/i] ME, YOU BUFFOON!!" [/color][color=#000000]Antalkalis hurled Drago back off him and into a building, before getting back on his feet, [/color][color=#800000]"You want me dead so damned badly?! Well I got news for you; I'll never die! And even if such an unlikely event were to come to pass, my death shall never be orchestrated by your hands!"[/color]

[color=#000000]He then [i]wildly [/i]turned to Finare, who promised him more power. Of course, any normal being would take that offer immediately, because power would be all their greedy selves really [i]cared[/i] about. But [i]Antalkalis [/i]on the other hand...[/color]

[color=#800000]"I've been betrayed by those more trustworthy than [i]you[/i]!"[/color][color=#000000] he spat, almost as if he took offence at the offer at hand, [/color][color=#800000]"And besides, I have all the power I [i]personally[/i] deem necessary! However, there [i]is[/i] one thing that I desire, above [i]anything[/i] that can be named; and [i]that[/i] desire is vengeance. I wish to avenge my people against the humans."[/color]

[color=#000000]Antalkalis looked up towards the moon, with a saddened look on his face.[/color]

[color=#800000]"This may not be possible for you to conceive, but in a few centuries' time, the humans will be capable of traversing the gaps between planets, and they will [i]use[/i] this capability to search for new planets to explore," [/color][color=#000000]he explained, before feeling a surge of anger inside him again, [/color][color=#800000]"In doing so, they'll destroy [i]countless[/i] life-forms that are only looking to protect their homes... including my [i]own [/i]race of beings. That's why I travelled this far... [i]this[/i] far back in time; so [i]I[/i] can eradicate them before they have the chance!"[/color]

[color=#000000]With this new-found confidence in him, Antalkalis looked back down at Finare's eye level again. He knew the reason why he wanted to fight, and that reasoning wasn't going to be averted any time soon... not even if he was told that he was allying himself with the wrong people. That of course didn't matter to him. What mattered was that he got his vengeance.[/color]

[color=#800000]"If you [i]can[/i] promise me that I'll have my vengeance, then I will aid your cause to the best of my abilities..." [/color][color=#000000]Antalkalis told Finare, before turning to and casting a venomous glare at Drago, [/color][color=#800000]"...but only so long as I don't have to work alongside that imbecile."[/color]

[center][u][b]Finare[/b][/u][/center]
Waking in his regal bed once again, hair loose as it created somewhat of a spreading flow from his head down, Finare opened his crimson eyes, rubbing them thoroughly, before coughing a little, holding his head before saying aloud, mainly to himself "Last night...we have him." refering to the acquiration of their newest member, Antalkalis, the vengeful alien who claimed to have travelled through time in order to extinguish humanity for the sole reason of their intention to eradicate his own race first; though Finare was one who did not agree thoroughly with tit for tat, he understood that turning the other cheek could not stand firmly forever, because if so was the world, then none would live, breath, exist, as we would all be in chaos, chaos or graves. Fact is, peace could not exist in a world of conflicting ideas, and if there was a single opposite, he knew there would be a fight between them. Peculierly, it seemed even with similarities there were conflicts, despite the smaller differences of course...

As Antalkalis made his statement, defining exactly how he would function as well as why, Finare gazed at him with his blank, neutral expression, not a slight sign of remorse upon his face as he didn't seem to hold any; he understood the alien's reasons, and in turn stated "Believe me, you have no idea of tragedies if you claim the mere extinction of your people is tragic enough, but my tale is for another time; you stated you seek vengence, to plight the entire human race. I should clarify I promise only that which Lord Zodiac deems acceptable. Rosa and Drago's wishes both seem somewhat small tokens, in contrast to your desire for the destruction of the entire human race, but if there is anyone who can do such a task, Zodiac can do it infinitely times faster."

Following this, he gazed over at Drago, embedded in building walls, and said "Come now, brothers; enough angst for one day, Rosa has been donned as a Prophet, so rather than conflict, we should rejoice and celibrate; we have also recruited another powerful member. Come tomorrow, we shall engage in perhaps the most difficult task in your current lives, for tomorrow we fight the Godbeast of Hatred."...

[center][size=1]-Flashback-[/size][/center]

"The Godbeast of Hatred: Hawkeart...hmph, such an ironic name." Finare stated as he sat up from his bed, then simply pulling back the covers he snapped his fingers, his clothing dressed his body as he continued to contemplate, to think what he was to do; Rosa was perhaps the weakest of the four, with both a seemingly fragile frame, yet he felt her skills perhaps would be vital; Antalkalis would essentially be the most versatile, but he's most certainly a Jack of All Trades; he had decided though Drago's skills varied he would certainly be a front-line act, having to get involved with the nitty gritty. He would be the pawn, though seemingly week he was by far a secret talent, especially with that outrageous level of strength, the burst was immaculate.

"And so it shall be done; I suppose the smitten sweetheart would prefer my company than that of the two luchadors. Training should begin shortly...but whom should Antalkalis spar with? Well, that can be decided in due time." Finare mentally noted as he walked down the corridor, sending two of the millions of sprites who roamed around to the other males to inform them they should make their way to training immediately; he thought Rosa would prefer to be escorted there by him personally. Finare himself was not smitten by Rosa, but somewhat held a candle of affection and empathy for the girl, who always wanted to be seen for her inner beauty rather than her exterior; it was no surprise really.

Finare walked through the door and sat upon her bed, watching Rosa sleep, before sayiing calmly "Rosa, wake up, we must begin training immediately."

And yes! It was actually Saturday as the sun rose gently above the mountaintops of Gorudoharu Valley, the lake-town under the breaking sunlight, the fish nibbling at the front of the Inoue House, but there was a difference. See, the fishers there weren't, well, there, but rather they were on their knees being belted on the rear ends by an old man with a kendo stick; it was Shinji's Grandfather, on his mother's side of course, and the voices heard were amongst these: from the old man was "My daughter shall not have two suitors!" "She is not to address herself with two disgusting poor fishermen!" "You may fish on the lake, but not outside my daughter's home!" and "Disgusting men are not worthy of my daughter!"

Yes, well, in turn Shinji had decided to escape his home through his bedroom window, his mother having packed a bag for him on the occasion his grandfather was visiting; leaping up the ledge, Shinji began to scale the side of the multiple planes which the town was built upon, climbing up until he reached an old shack where his "Grandpa Bike" was held, and hoping on he began to cycle his way to do...well, something, really. Maybe...cycle to Krystal's house? Yeah, that seemed like a plan, she seemed close to Blake and such, so he assumed they'd probably meet up there.

This was his plan until he looked down the hilly environment and saw his worst nightmare: "SHINJI!!! GET BACK HERE RIGHT THIS INSTANT!!!" "Oh no, Grandpa!" And so he had a little chase scene underway; que the awesome chase music, and surprisingly even though Shinji was pedalling faster than he had ever in his life, his Grandpa was, somehow, catching up? "Gah! I've gotta speed this up!..alright, an Item Box!" Yeah, for some reason, Shinji hit an item box and got hold of a Triple Mushroom, and if you know how Mario Kart works, mushrooms make vroom vroom, and he managed to get more distance...untill something worse happened. His Grandpa took out his Kendo Stick and leaped into the air, the sword on fire, as he yelled "Superflaminggrandsoncatching Sword of Justice!" smashing the rear tire of Shinji's bike into an oblivion.

His Grandfather then looked through the dusty cloud for Shinji, onto to see a scarecrow in his place; Shinji had managed to evade him, coincidentally right outside Krystal's house, so crawling through a hedge he looked over it to watch his grandfather disappear from sight, walking back home yelling at the fishermen; for an old geezer he had amazing vision, and strength. He was certainly a wildcard alright, but anyways, Shinji sat down by the hedge and decided to begin to catch his breath; it's not every day your grandfather charges at you with a kendo stick ready to bolt you over the head with it.

[color=#008080]"Zzzz-"[/color] "Superflaminggrandsoncatching Sword of Justice!" [color=#008080]"zzz- Wh-What the?!"[/color] Krystal sat up quickly in her bed. Walking to her window, she flung it up and stuck her head outside. Looking down, she seen a dust cloud. [color=#008080]"What happened down there?"[/color] Watching the dust settle, she seen a scarecrow, a bike and an old man walking away. Safe to say Krystal was completely confused. She then noticed some movement below her window, by the hedges. Looking down, she spotted Shinji. Glancing at the bike for a moment, she looked back at Shinji and asked, [color=#008080]"So.. Wanna tell me what happened Shinji? Actually.. Lemme get dressed and meet ya down there, alright?"[/color] Getting her head back into the house, she walked to her closet, petting Speddio on the way, and stepped in. A moment later, Krystal had changed out of her red pajamas into an [url="http://wolfs-wish.deviantart.com/art/Casual-Lumina-191008805?q=boost%3Apopular%20Casual%20anime%20outfit&qo=34"]outfit she finished making[/url] a few days ago. Fixing the flowers in her hair, she quickly stepped down the stairs into the kitchen. Grabbing a handful of toast, she thanked mom for making it and told she'll be out hanging with some friends. [i][color=#800080]"Alright sweetie. Head home when the street lights come on, alright?"[/color][/i] [color=#008080]"I will, Mom!"[/color] Krystal answered back as she stepped outside of the house, Speddio at her side. Feeding Speddio as piece of toast as she nibbled on one herself, she walked over to Shinji and offered him one, [color=#008080]"So.. You alright? It looks like your bike took a hit.. Assuming that's your bike anyways.. And who was the old man? What happened? Didn't offer to help him cross the road and he went rage on you?"[/color] She giggled a little at the thought.

[i]The previous night.[/i]

Andrew arrived at the kitchen door of his family's house just as the sun had sunk half-way down behind the horizon. It had taken him much longer than normal because, firstly, he was exhausted after the day's events, secondly, the walk was almost entirely up-hill for him and, thirdly, he had gone well out of his way to avoid running in to any of his classmates on the walk home. Given what usually happened when he arrived home late, he expected his parents to be at the dinner table eating. His mother, Akihana Black, was quite the beautiful woman for someone to behold. She, like her husband, was in her mid thirties and taking amazing care of herself. She was lithe in figure, in the way one would expect a dancer to be, and was eazily Kozue Inoue's equal in physical attractiveness with silky black hair which hung down to her waist, lightly tanned skin, a softly rounded face with bright amber eyes that shone with obvious intelligence. Topping everything out was the presence of curves in all the right places. Andrew's father, William Black, on the other hand was quite the rugged fellow. He stood about eight inches taller than his wife at six foot three, and was built like one would expect a United States Marine to be. His dirty blonde hair was always cropped short, but he had recently grown a handlebar mustache and rounded goatee. It was from William that Andrew got his green eyes, as well as the somewhat squared jaw and cleft chin.

"Mom, Dad, I'm ho-," Andrew began as he opened the door, but froze in place as it took him several moments to comprehend exactly what it was that he was seeing. His mother was dressed in a pink Kimono, which certainly seemed more revealing that was appropriate to wear around one's children, and a [url="http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&q=kitsune+mask#/d4p2mmg"]mask which mimicked a fox's face[/url] whilst she held a large wooden spoon in her right hand. His father, on the other hand, was wearing only a pair of camouflage pants and was completely bare from the waist up with one exception. He was wearing a [url="http://browse.deviantart.com/?q=Japanese%20Demon%20Mask&order=9&offset=384#/d4bdhm1"]solid red Oni mask with white teeth[/url] and holding a large wire whisk in his own right hand. Akihana was standing atop the table and had just parried an overhand attack by William at the exact moment when Andrew had walked in. Mother and Father stared blankly as Son stared back in much the same way.

"I'll...just...go to bed." Were the words hesitantly spoken by Andrew as he made his way to the stairs which lead upstairs to his room. "Goodnight Andrew" he heard spoken by both of his parents as he tried to shake the image he had just seen from his mind so that he could sleep.

[i]The Next Day[/i]

Andrew had woken with the sunrise and gone out for a walk around the neighborhood, first eating breakfast with his parents who always got up early on the weekends with him. The events of the previous night had not come up in the conversation at all. After finishing breakfast, his father had gone out for an early morning run whilst Andrew had gone up to the top of the hill upon which the neighborhood was located so that he could get a good view of the lake as the sun came over it. It was there that he had sat down to meditate in an attempt to grasp the concept of what exactly it was that had happened to him over the last repeated day.

[color=#800080]"Why did you stop me?" [/color]came the inevitable question from the Void Knight who materialized in spirit form directly in front of Andrew.

"I couldn't let you harm my friends, especially using my body." Came Andrew's reply as he opened his eyes and turned a rueful gaze into the black spots which might have been the Void Knight's eyes.

[color=#800080]"Friends..." [/color]The armored being began, his voice slowly trailing off, [color=#800080]"Friends are nothing to you. Whether you realize it or not, you are alone. The only one that you rightly can or should care about. There will come a time when you are absolutely alone and nothing that anyone can do will save you. When that time comes, you will realize it and despair."[/color]

"You're wrong!" Andrew replied hastily and angrily, just as the ethereal being vanished back to wherever it was that he normally resided. The young man sighed quietly, before rising to his feet and making his way back downhill. It was as he was approaching Krystal's house that he noticed the presence of Speddio, Krystal, and Shinji all out by the road near the site of a bike crash. Unsure what their response to his presence would be, and having had his confidence shaken by the Void Knight, he tried to pass by without being noticed.

"Superflaminggrandsoncatching Sword of Justice!" [color=#008080]"AGHHH!" [/color]Blake yelled as he heard this yell, basically falling out of bed. [color=#008080]"Owowowowowowow....who is yelling at this time of morning..." [/color]he began, with a yawn. [color=#008080]"...on a Saturday?" [/color]With a sigh, he stood up and looked outside, could see a bunch of dust clouds outside, along with Krystal and Shinji talking a bit. [color=#008080][i]I'm guessing it was Shinji...guess he's alright from yesterday falling into that lake. [/i][/color]he snickered a bit, before getting himself ready. Blake then ran down the stairs, seeing his dad cooking again.

[color=#FF8C00]"Son, where are you going in such a hurry?"[/color]

[color=#008080]"Going to meet up with some friends today dad." [/color]Blake said, before shoving a riceball into his mouth. Then he muffled something, which sounded like, [color=#008080]"See ya later!"[/color] He quickly ran outside, running up to Shinji and Krystal.

[b][i][u][color=#000000]Drago[/color][/u][/i][/b]

[color=#000000]A roar was somewhat heard inside Finare's castle, it coming from Drago's room(shocking). [/color][color=#800000]"That little stuck up a**!" [/color]he growled, thinking about the events that befell him yesterday. Finare making Drago go animalistic on Antalkalis, was the main thing...then telling him everything that Azure Inc. told him back when they were around. [color=#800000]"When I get my hands on that little...oh I'm going to enjoy ripping him to shreds!!" [/color]This went on for a few minutes, until he finally kicked his door down, walking out of the room.

[color=#800000][i]Finare will think TWICE next time he pulls a stunt like that...cause I might just kill him next. [/i][/color]Drago thought, cracking his knuckles, walking away from his room.

As Krystal approached Shinji, the boy dragged her behind the hedge, finger on her lips, eyes frantic as he whispered "Please please please be quiet, my Grandpa is insanely healthy for a man of his age!" before parting the hedge to see his grandfather's face staring at him; pushing back the leaves he said "I must be seeing things!" and laughing nervously when he gazed back at Krystal, but decided to brave the hedge again and parting the bushes, yep, his Grandpa was right there, glaring at him; it was evident he had heard each and every single word that he had just said, and this traditional old fool was about to make things become so much more awkward than it needed to.

He sliced his kendo stick through the bushes and grabbed Shinji by the collar, Shinji flailing about as he was ready for the mouthful he was about to get: [b]"WHO DO YOU THINK YOU'RE CALLING INSANE!"[/b] [size=1]"No, wait, Grandpa, it's not-"[/size] [b]"I will have you know I am in a greater state of sanity than those loony fishermen..." [/b]Grandpa Inoue then leaned over the hedge, releasing Shinji, as he yelled [b]"...who STILL SHOULD BE DOING THOSE 1.000.000.000 PUSH UPS AS I'M TALKING!!!..." [/b]to which in the distance the two men had leaped from their spot and began doing pushups frantically. After this, he grasped Shinji's collar again, Shinji somewhat hiding in the yellow sweater, as he yelled, into the thing where the boy was hiding [b]"Also it's a hot day out so you shall not be wearing this sweater when the sun is shining; you'll sweat like a mule, and those clothes are not designed from a hot environment!" [/b][size=1]"But Grandpa, I-"[/size] [b]"No buts! You, young sir, have- OOOOHHHH!!!!"[/b]

Suddenly his gaze at turned to Krystal, Shinji now slipping out of his sweater, his Grandfather grasping his white shirt's collar now as he yelled [b]"Why are you here with a girl Shinji?" [/b][size=1]"I was trying to run away-" [/size][b]"Run away with her? You are far to young for that kind of thinking, plus I see no ring in your pocket or on your finger!"[/b] [size=1]"Grandpa, we're just-"[/size] [b]"Just having flings is not a manner to do such a thing, young Inoue, especially if there is no commitment in the relationship! You should know that you are to marry the one whom you bed with; you haven't slept with her yet, have you?"[/b] "What?!? No!" [b]"Good! Now be a gentleman and get down on one knee!"[/b] [size=1]"But Grandpa-" [/size]Shinji didn't know what was going on, was he about to marry Krystal? God this Grandpa was, if anything, too persistant.

Matters only became worse when Blake arrived, to which Grandpa Inoue glared at him, then back to Shinji saying [b]"A second suitor? Shinji, on one knee this instant!"[/b] before throwing his grandson, who then toppled over and, well, landed in a very awkward position with Krystal pinned to the ground, Shinji flaring up like a tomato with steam from his ears. Then he was struck on the head with that Kendo Stick, to which Grandpa said [b]"YOU WILL NOT ENGAGE IN SUCH ACTIVITIES, YOU HORMONAL VULGAR DEMON!" [/b]before yanking him by his collar, Shinji's face still red from all the ragdolling, and Grandpa thrusted him onto his one knee.

Shinji sighed and looked up to his Grandpa as he said "Grandpa, listen to m-" [b]"You're not proposing to me Shinji! Now, hold on a second..." [/b]then the dreaded old man's gaze, eyes burning, landed on Blake as he drew his Kendo stick, it setting alight again some how as he said[b] "...my future daughter-in-law is not to have two suitors!!!" [/b]before charging at Blake, flaming Kendo overhead, as he tried over and over to swing it down on the boy. In this time Shinji sighed and said to Krystal "Krystal, meet Grandpa Izaburo Inoue." before facepalming at the sight of his Grandfather chasing Blake trying to swat him with a flaming kendo stick.

Suddenly the sword was stopped by a hand, owned by one Mr Kazakawa, whom said "Izaburo? You never mentioned you were visiting." before shaking his hands, Grandpa Inoue saying in turn [b]"...who the heck are you?" [/b]Rolling his eyes, Mr Kazakawa whispered a single word, and...[b]"Ah, Kazakawa, it's you! You'll never guess what happened, my Grandson has a wife-" [/b]"Izaburo, you're not trying to pressurize your views on Shinji again are you?" Mr Kazakawa and Grandpa Inoue seemed to share history, but as the two walked back, Shinji had to ask something that was on his mind; prior to their arrival Shinji asked "Hey Krystal, heard anything from Anthony?"

Anyways, after the hub-bub, Kazakawa stood, with Izaburo next to him, in front of Shinji and Krystal as he said "Now then, I'm sure you're wondering why I'm here, but in order for me to answer that we're off on an expedition; who's up for it then?" which though Shinji was reluctant, after a glare from his Grandpa stuck up his hand; that glare then went to Krystal and Blake in that order, Kazakawa then noticing Andrew off in the distance, calling out "Andrew, come here; we're going to explore the Valley a little!"

[color=#008080]"Wh- Ah!"[/color] Krystal yelped a little when Shinji pulled her behind the hedges to hide from the old man, who happened to be his grandfather, who was also on the other side of the bushes. Suddenly, a kendo stick cut through the bushes and Shinji was pulled up and out of them. This caused Krystal to yelp again. Seriously, what was this old man doing to make as strong, if not stronger, than a body builder. [b]"No buts! You, young sir, have- OOOOHHHH!!!!" [/b]Hearing this, Krystal curled up into a ball and tried to hide better in the bushes, but it was already too late. Then Grandpa Inoue went on a rant about Shinji running away with her and something about having a fling. [color=#008080]"Wait, what?!?!?!"[/color] Krystal shouted out in shock and awe as she stood up. Then Grandpa Inoue went on a rant about Shinji not being on his knees and proposing to her yet. Through out the rest of the scene, Krystal had this [url="http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&q=wtf#/duf6il"]expression[/url] with a face that was redder than a fresh Granny-smith apple. She didn't know what to do, this whole scene seemed like something off of a bad comedy show. And just when she think things couldn't get worse, Blake arrived, making Grandpa Inoue talk about her having two suitors.

She was about to run back inside of her house out of embarrassment when Grandpa Inoue made an attempt to strike Blake, [color=#008080]"W-What! Dun do that Inoue-kun!"[/color] IT was at that moment that Mr. Kazakawa stepped in. [b]"Ah, Kazakawa, it's you! You'll never guess what happened, my Grandson has a wife-" [/b]This cause Krystal to blush so much that she ended up fainting! Laying on the ground, her left foot twitching a little, Krystal had the [url="http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&q=dizzy+GIF#/d3ch14l"]classic dizzy face[/url] as she tried to understand why Grandpa Inoue was so cruel, unintentionally, she hoped.

[b]"...my future daughter-in-law is not to have two suitors!!!" [/b][url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u35c92jBkVc]Blake's[/url] eyes widened as he backed up, falling on the ground to avoid Inoue's strike. [color=#008080]"W-WHAT?! I'm not a-a-a suitor to Krystal, Oji-san*...we're j-just friends!" [/color]he said, gulping a bit. He closed his eyes, hoping that he wouldn't get hit, when he saw a familiar figure. [color=#008080]"K-Kazakawa-senpai! I-I-I'm real glad you came here when you did..." [/color]Blake said, nervously, crawling quickly over towards Krystal and Shinji. [color=#008080]"O-OK...S-Shinji...do you know him or something? I-If so...then he is a bit...[i]psycho [/i]to me..." [/color]he said, whispering the word "psycho", hoping Inoue or Kazakawa wouldn't hear him.
