Longing

[Milady Nythrin]

"Well......" Kanika thought first,".....His Majesty wouldn't be to happy if she ran off again right--" When she looked toward's Zen, there was a slight 'glow' sound and Zen had somehow transported out of the room. Her eyes widened as she went towards the window to try and spot her,"...........Right after I said that....." She looked up at Lucifer,"He's going to get mad...." She then disappeared in smoke to go try and find her.

Zen was using both her natural speed and the wind to make herself quite fast. She had somehow transported outside the castle walls. She looked at her casting reflection the wind (who knows what type of wind this is) made on the castle wall, seeing Nythrin, but didn't stop," How....how did I do that?" "....You were gazing not just at them, but the window a lot, and I'm guessing you wanted to leave. You awakened that power yourself, Zen," Nythrin talked to her through the reflection,"I may have all the powers, but I can't access them.......... It's a good thing you left to.." "...Why? What would happen?" Zen asked her other self. "Belveirah's current form......Orfeo....his birth date is the day after tomorrow," Nythrin told her. "What's so bad? We still have two days then," Zen asked confused. Nythrin shook her head,"You are mixing up the Makian time with the demonic time. Yes, this world has the same number of days, weeks, months, and years, but there is a day and 3 hour time difference. On Makia, it should be high noon now. Here, I believe it's 3 a.m. We have less then a day to get home." ".....But still.....how does this change anything?" Zen still had a confused look on her face. Nythrin had a small amount of fear appear in her eyes,"He.....his desperation, his resolve, they all show. Based on what happened in his other past lives, on his birthday, he becomes more agitated, and would like to be with me all the time." "Doesn't that happen already?" Zen asked. By now they were getting farther away from the palace and head towards where the portal between worlds are. "No. It's so much more different...." The goddess's look not changing. Zen looked at her, still confused, when she stopped dead in her tracks. A dark aura covered Zen as her conversation with Nythrin ended. ".....W-Who's there?" Zen looked around cautiously.

Hazka spat blood out, the pain from his wounds and burns stung with great intensity as he looked over to Yan and Orfeo. The General had extreme fear, rage, and sorrow fill him, but he was best at hiding it from his King, his breath cut in half,"......My lieutenant.....did what I'm sure......loyal lieutenants do for.......their Generals." Yan said nothing, holding back her tears greatly. Though she didn't want to die, she felt guilt that she spoke out of line, and that she couldn't stop her General from going though with his plan. "......I'd rather you kill me......then a lieutenant who........thought nothing of my words that I speak truly........" His lieutenant held back a gasp of fear that only went to her eyes. "I.......I have been preparing for your punishment.........for years now, and.....I won't go back on my words.....Sire.......I've seen how your people suffer.......when you go through your pain........and revival..........all for Nythrin...... From...the smallest and....insignifigant.......of them....................to the......largest and important.........of them............ All I ask........Sire........is for you......to care about.....your subjects..........and not abandon them....for some one not of this........planet..." Hazka looked at his King with truth, rage, and pleadance. The other Generals and lieutenants, just watched, knowing that Hazka was soon to be destroyed.

"Clever Bitch isn't she." He mummbled to hiself once his sister left to fallow the goddess. He silently debated fallowing his sister threw the shadows after Zen, but cam up with more reason not to. With a pouting sigh Lucifer finally took off after Kanika mostly to make sure the goddess did nothing to hurt his sister.

Orfeo on the other hand was unawear of the going ons in the bed room he had left Zen in and focused on the general that had dared to defy him. "hmm so you do not wish to see her punished?" Orfeo coldly bit out. He allowed his magic to manifest itself into a more volitile form of it's choosing. His magic then ashed ot again at the fallen general and at the lieutenant who was in Orfeo's arms. "You have given me to go reason to spare her life Hazka and right now I would very much like to give you a parting gift to the afterlife once I dismiss you." Orfeo used his blade to make deep gouges a long the generals body, he had yet to use the sword of the lieutenant, but he was still wondering if he wanted to dismiss such a good lieutenant. Coming to a conclushion Orfeo staired coldly and emotionlessly down at the general. "You are dismissed" Hethen brought his blade down, giving the killling blow.

[Milady Nythrin]

Kanika still searched for her before seeing a dark aura cloud near the groove. She also sensed Zen was in there. She sighed, but instead of transporting like she was about to do, the cloud and the goddess's trances completely dissappeared. Her eyes widdened, but her expression didn't change,"...What the hell?"

"G...General....." Yan's tears flowed silently down her face, almost invisible. Yan felt the pain where Orfeo's power struck her, but she was paying more attention to her General's dead body. General Jatana, who was second in charge of Hazka's part in the army, and had the right to get rid or get people in the army, (It's confusing, but it goes like this: King, General has inner assistant [lieutenant], General has outer assistant appointed by the King , ect.) looked at her with slight pity, but not much," Lieutenant Yan. You broke the code of the barracks, and you are here by relived of your duties as lieutenant. Please leave." Yan looked up at her, gently romoving herself from the young demon king's arms, then removing what ever she had that showed she was a lieutenant, or a soilder in the first place, showing she now dropped out of the army entirely. She got up and ran out of the barracks, her cries not being heard until she left the place; her cries then disspeared as she did. After she did, the body of Hazka dissappeared too. The female general sat down,"...Forgive me if it was at the wrong moment to do my follow up duties, Your Majesty." Jatana then awaiting what her King would tell them now.

Zen awoke later in a small, dark place like an abandoned home, the windows glassless and covered with planks, and no doors on doorways. Feeling really cold, she looked down and noticed she was bare and had her feet tied down tightly. She gave only a small whimper, but sucked it up and tried untieing herself. "So...the fake goddess is finally awake,huh?" She only heard a man chuckle. The man had heard her stur from where he was in the house. "Sir, I don't think--" Another man that sounded young started. "Shut up! Look, the good general paid us, we get to do something fun, and he left us a crap load to boot. Why not?" Even another man said to the younger one, sounding like he struck him. "Still we could get in pretty big trouble," A fourth man said. "Since when did you hold back on such an oppertunenty? Beside, there is a 50 foot by 45 foot barrier around this place that disables powers, strong enough to stop the King's," The first guy said. "I don't want to die though! His majesty will kill us all!!" The youngest of the four said," I only wanted to make this world a better place to live, not become a criminal against his majesty by taking his woman's purity!!" "Then leave, King's pet! Your not a real demon, just a petty Makian stuck in a demon's body!!" The fourth guy sounded like he stabbed the youngest, since the youngest screamed,"We are thinking of this planet as well. "Besides, after we're done, we're leaving this planet!!" The third one also stabbed him, but repeatedly. After words, it sounded like the youngest ran away. "Who need's him anyway?" The first one chuckled, but suddently stopped," You idiots! What if he's able to reach the castle?! He'll tell the king what we're up to!!" "..d**n!" The other two jetted off. Foot steps came closer to Zen, walking up the stairs, and into the room she was in. "Hello, Goddess of chaos and destruction. I'm your host today, and I hope you have as much fun as me and my friends are going to have with you," Zen only saw his grin, everything else was covered by the shadows. He grabbed her mouth and put a pill in it. He covered her nose and mouth forcing her to swallow it," Now, show me if you really are a goddess though." Zen gasped, her heart beated irregularly. She took Nythrin's form once again, but it seemed like she was being forced out since she was panting hard and looked like she was about to lose consiousness," Get.......get away from me........!!" Nythrin tried using her wind power, but it only created a slight powerful gust of wind that made him step back a few steps. "Wow! You really are a goddess! The barrier around here makes all powers disabled, but you managed to pull of wind magic," The man grinned, getting close to her again," Enough of that. Your in luck right now, though. My friends left to stop a traitor, and I promised them I wouldn't take your purity without them, so I'll just have some fun and games." He took out a long, harder than leather whip, grinning at it,"You know.... I actually like to see girls when they suffer. It's even more fun and a once in a lifetime chance....." He struck her across the face with it," To hurt a goddess!" Nythrin quickly covered herself with her arms as the man laughed and enjoyed makeing her bleed her red-clear blood, not giving the sadifaction of making her cry out (the color of god and goddess blood is normally clear, but Nythrin is still in a human-type body, so it still has its red color).

The youngest of the demons had managed to get out of the barrier and transported near the kingdom, panting. He was covering his wounds with his hand," So....some one.....Miss Nythrin......is going to...." He leaned against the wall, letting himself slid down. Kanika was around the corner when she heard this. She sighed, talking about Nythrin lowly," What a damsel in distress." She walked up to the guy and bent down to his level," Where is she?" "S..southern side of the town Hansl. There's...a power barrier up.....to rival the King's..." He passed out. She sighed again and shook her head,"Weak..... He only has a cut on his arm and side to. Still..... You heard brother? Do you want to go with me or should I?" Kanika always knew where her brother was if he was near, even if a good 40 to 45 feet away.

[High Priestess Silver]

Orfeo just staired coldly at the other general, who was preforming his appointed taskes. The demon lord really didn't care what the general did at the moment and was content to focus his attention on the newly made dead general on the floor. after several more minuets in silence, Orfeo walked back to he seat. "Now Surely that was not the only thing I was called down here for, was it?" He asked his voice cold and sharp, demanding a responce.

Lucifer settped out of his shadows and smoke for a pref minuet. "Oh sister, of course I shall come. i can't let you have all the fun now can I?" He asked his two toned face and black lips forming a smile that had even demons running at the sight of it. "we might have to get there quickly though sister, if we don't want the king mad at us." He said with a sigh, oh how he wished he could just take his time and let the wench suffer for a while, but if he did that Orfeo would have his head even if he was his attendant. "Shall she travle together or seperatly?" Lucifer asked finally pulling out a single sting and wrapping it around the guys throat. "hmm we also need to deal with him. If we allowed him to live and the king found out he would order us to kill the man anyways he was part of the scheem."

[Milady Nythrin]

A female general sitting down, who wore a dark purple cloth over her eyes, started signing. "G-general Fuua says that other then this little thing that happened today, one of the enemy planets have been trying to control the western part of the planet and our western moon," the female general's luietenant translated for his general," Our part of the army guards that part, but they seem to gather more forces than thought possible from such a small planet."

"Yes," Kanika told him," But not painfully, now. He did tell us her where abouts. I'll take the honors, knowing you, brother." She looked at the man, who had shown fear on him,".....You should be pleased not have died a traitor." The moment she said that, a snake bit him on the bleeding spot on his arm, the painless, but quick poison killing him almost instantly, the dead body parts turning to ash. The snake crawled up her leg and rested it's head on her shoulder as she patted it," Shall we now, brother?"

Nythrin was being forced to stay consious by only the pill and the beats on her body. "And where....do you think you're going?!" The man pulled on her hair when Nythrin tried to run away when the chains on her legs were broken. He smirked at her pain, pushing her down to the ground hard. "...Having fun, yo?" The third man from earlier came in with the fourth. "...Did you find him?" The first man asked, whipping Nythrin repeatedly. "No. He must have gotten through the barrier quickly," The fourth one shook his head. "Damn it...... well then, gentlemen, we have to work rather fast then," The first man dropped the whip and started to pull down his . The other men nodded, following suit. Nythrin, being rather weak at the moment of her loss of her red-white blood, did her best to close her legs and keep away from the monsters of men.

[High Priestess Silver]

"Hmm. I see..." Orfeo paused to think of the best solution to the problem at hand. Damn idiots think they can take what's rightfully mine, do they. Orfeo thought with a snarl, he was still pretty wound up from the happenings of earlier. "If that is the case then General Jatana shall take the remaining troops that are not needed where he is station and head over there. He will then help you hold them off untill I arrive with the rest of the troops from the rest or your ranks. They will wished they had never heard of the demon lands when I am threw with them, That is if they are still alive to wish it." Orfeo said, giving out his orders with a comanding tone, but added the last bit as an after thought. "Go and prepare the troops, we shall be leaving as soon as possible."

The poor male attendat of the King, could do nothing but pout as his sister took away his fun. "Fine then sister, let us go now." He then wrapped his arm around her waist to guide her threw his shadow's of smoke and to their destination. They arrived at the edge of the barrier with in mear moments of their departure. Still pouting Lucifer let go of his sister and touched the barrier. "Well are you ready, I want to have some fun." He said still partially pouting. All he wanted was to have fun with these men, who dared to take what was their lords, and boy would they pay.

[Milady Nythrin]

"Yeah, Sire," General Jatana got up, along with her lieutenant and left with haste. Soon after, a mojority of the generals and luietenants left to. "Your Majesty, what shall my medical troops do?" The second to youngest General asked with his liuetenant behind him.

"Liuetenant Oune, I want you to go to our post and tell the remaining troops what is going on and to go to the Westside of the planet. I'm going to get Hazka's troops," General Jatana dissappeared in mist. "Yes, ma'am," Her luietenant nodded, she to dissappearing to her mission in mist.
Reluctant as the old General's men were, they soon followed her to the battle lines, where Jatana's liutenant and troops were already in action.

Kanika nodded and touched the barrier too,"........Yeah, it's as strong as the king's, but it has an open weak point no power full than a mere boy's." At that she grabbed at the openning weak point and shattered the entire barrier. "Shall we?" She then dissappeared into the house.

The men and Nythrin immediately sensed the barrier's destruction. Nythrin by now was to weak to even conjure a spell, the pill in it's full effect. "I wouldn't move if I were you," Kanika appeared sitting down, talking to the 4th man. She had already grabbed Nythrin and was sitting on a nearby chair. 5 of her snakes were wrapped around the man, another right near his , the fangs baring with painful, slow poison that can petrify him in his death if he moved a muscle. "I leave the others to you brother. Have fun," Kanika gave a small, unnoticed by all except her brother smile. She then looked at Nythrin," It seems they forced you to swallow a pill.....it strange since you can only find those in the armies...... Open your mouth, hold your breathe, and remain still." Nythrin, just even barely hearing this did as, she was told. A thin, but quick snake went in her mouth and down her throat. "Don't gag now," Kanika said, the snake, a part of her, feeling for the pill,"....There it is." The snake grabbed the pill from the near her stomach and dissappeared into smoke, the pill now in Kanika's hand. Nythrin's heart started going down to it's regular pace, she then slowly changed back to Zen, the whip wounds and bruises not dissappearing. Kanika got up and set Zen on the chair," Now." She went up to the tied up man, her almost emotionless face unchanging. Her hand was on her left hip, grabbing onto her dagger in an unnoticable way.

[High Priestess Silver]

Minuets passed as Orfeo debated if there would be a need for the medical units or not. "Bring them, but I don't plan on needing you." He finally answered. "Now go. I have a war to prepare for." Orfeo said standing and leaving the room without a glance. He stalked from the room back to where Nythrin should have been only to find the room empty of both Nythrin and his Attendants.

A black crow swooped in at Kanika's words to her brother. "why sister you are too kind." He said appearing out of nowhere with the black crow perched on his arm like a hunting bird. He turned his attention from his pet to his newest toys. "Now who is first?" He asked a truly evil and sadistic grin on his face. "Speak up now who shall it be?" He stalked forward, the bird having moved from his arm to his shoulder, and trailed a sharp nail over their faces drawing thin lines of blood. "How about you!" He choose striking out and hitting the nearest man in the face. Lucifer then brought his bloody fingers to his lips. "Oh, how wonderfull look at him bleed."

[Milady Nythrin]

"Yes, Sire," The medical General and his liuetenant then leaving the place as well to the battle fields.

".....Something...doesn't fit right about this battle, does it Fuua?" General Jatana left her double edged whip sticks lash out at the enimies. General Fuua nodded, signing, both speaking to General Jatana and attacking with elemental attacks. "Exactly my thought, but we still don't know for sure," Jatana glanced at the General before ressuming. "Besides," The youngest general's long but only a 1 cm wide swords cut through the enemy plante's troops," What is the reason for them to interfeer with this planet now? Sire's woman?" "It could be, but still you're right," General Jatana's whip wrapped around a guy's throat, cutting it off instantly," We'll have to discuss about this later in the barracks."

Zen's vission was blurry, only seeing their movements and blood splatter. Her body still couldn't rest or move, even with the pill out of her system. The pill still left its after effects.

"Very well he does," Kanika looked over, her small and unnoticable smile growing more sadistic; her darker side starting to fill her face. She looked back at the man,"......I wonder.....how long it will be...." In a quick instant, she striked the guy with her left dagger,"....before you move.......? ....Will you bleed to death.......or will you move and get poisoned............." The man didn't move in the slightest, but a low cry came from him. Kanika's eyes only widdened before turning back to the original posistion. With every cut, more blood spilt out of the man, and more emotion showed on her face. She took a small and slow sniff in, smelling the blood. She looked over to her brother,".............My...darker is not showing, is it brother?"

[High Priestess Silver]

Orfeo growled at the sight before him, where his two attendants and Nythrin where suppose to be. He figured that nythrin had attempted to take over again and left. he would wait as long as he could, but he could only wait so long. He had hopped that she had not fled, but it would seem that those hopes where in vein. In his Anger Orfeo's powers manifessed themselves and slamed against the walls of the room leaving long cracks and burn marks on everything.

Across the demon lands far to the south Lucifer was over ridden with glee and he had blood spraying around him and the screams of his victums rung in the air as he enjoyed himself. "Well then sister, leave them to me. Our lord has propably returned by now anyways and is looking for his chosen right now." Lucifer called out to his sister not looking at her. He was to focused on watching his birds slowly rip apart one of the men, piece by piece. "Dose it hurt?" He asked walking up to one of the men his bird had been peekinn at. all over him larch chunks of mucles and skin where missing and almost all of the mans once white skin was now red from his blood. Lucifer held a look of sorrow on his face giving the man a false sence of hope. Lucifer new all to well what was happening and what he was doing as he smirked to himself in his mind.

[Milady Nythrin]

At the battle field, General Jatana had one of her whips wrapped around one of the enemy planet's commanders. The youngest general smirked," Strong and large numbers, weak and small strategies." General Fuua nodded, signing complicated signs and making an entire part of the enemy armada from far off burn to death. The eldest general (looks 29 though) there looked at Jatana with a smile, having a west-eastern accent," Well, are ya jus' going ta stand thare and ask, or ya goin' ta kill him?" Jatana looked at him then back at the commander," Who sent you?" The commander just smirked, saying nothing. The eldest general, still smiling, walked over to the commander hastily and back hand him, breaking the commander's jaw. "Now, now," The eldest general said, still with a smile, pushing the man's jaw back into place," This planet has it's own rules too. Now, answer this lady's question." ".......Go get some--" The commander started before having his jaw be broken again by the general. "I could do this all day, and it will jus' funnier. Now, I'm not askin', not resquestin', I'm damandin' it. Answer. The question," The general told him with a smile, but his voice completely serious. "....You're not getting anything out of me with that voi--" This time, his right arm was cut off with the eldest general's resizing ax hammer. The general still was smiling, but his serious eyes were opened. The general lifted him by the throat with his free hand," Since we have smart-ass here, I'll ask the question and see how many limbs he has ta loose before he answers. Now, who sent ya?" When commander didn't answer, the general cut of another arm, then a leg," Who sent ya?" "Don't cut everything off, Kwenos. There will be nothin' left to question," The youngest general sat down and began to meditate, waiting. " Very well then," General Kwenos smiled, looking back the commander," Well now?" The commander whimpered from the massive pain he had,".......The..The general....Hazka." General Fuua sighed, and signed 'I knew it.' " Exactly. No wonder why this battle is so sudden," General Jatana replied. "............There is more to come for you, until that woman Nythirn is dead--" General Kwenos interrupted by letting him go and grabbing the commander's face and crushing his head," Well now, no need for a smart-ass ta talk anymore." He saw in the distance more enemies coming," Sure, it's jus' a distraction battle, but it's fun. I accept the challenge." The other surrounding generals sighed and got up. General Kwenos's troupes, who had similar attitudes in battle were just as happy as their general.

Zen had pasted out before seeing what Lucifer was doing thankfully, but her wounds wouldn't even begin to heal.

Kanika sighed," Alright. I guess we're even then." She looked at the man wrapped in snakes after putting the pill away in a small case she kept with her. She threw he dagger in a part of his body that makes him scream, the snake near his area bit it instantly, the other snakes attacking as well. Kanika watched in glee as the man screamed in horror and pain as his skin went from bloody red to dark purple then black, his screams dieing out as he was cover from head to toe with the poison of petrification spreading quickly through his body and snakes covering all of it. Kanika sighed as her face became lighter, her darker part of herself fading. She went toward Zen and picked her up, transporting to the castle. Back in the castle room, Kanika's eyes widened as she looked around seeing everything burnt and things with long cracks in it. She looked Orfeo. She knew he was beyond pissed, even if she didn't see the destruction and chaos in the room. "....Your majesty...?" She kept her distance, still holding Zen, who would even stir, but was still alive and breathing.

[High Priestess Silver]

Once Kanika appeared with Zen back into the room, Orfeo flung his powers out at his loyal retainer and pinned her harshly against the wall. "Where did you go." He snarled out not pleased in the leas bit that they where not there when he returned, that had been the reason why he had left nythrin in their care in the first place. He glanced at Nythrin for the first time since the two had arrived back. He snarled again as he noticed the state his beloved was in. "What happened" His voice was calm now, so deadly calm that if there had been a lesser creature in the room they would have died of fright. "Speak Kankia or I shall kill you." He warned his attendante. The battle that was raging in the western lands forgotten for the moment.

(Warning the fallowing paragraph is exceedingly violent)

Birds kawed in gleeful laughter as they devowered the still living bodies of the men who had dared to rise against Orfeo. Lucifer had taken to percing on a tower of boxes with one leg drawn up to his chest as the other dangled over the edge. He watch the scean with his eyes glowing slightly. He lived for moments like this where he could enjoy watching his pets feast upon the living. The moments where he could do this where few and far imbetween so he took every chance he got and used it to the fullest. He had left one person relativly unharmed to watch the vial show of violence and descecration. The man stood frozen with wide eyes, filled with fear and tears at the sight he could not turn away from. It had been one thing for the man to be the one inflickting the harm onto others but as he was forced to watch he was over come with just how different it was to be the victum. Finally the last of the men struggled to breath their last breaths and Lucifer called one of his pets back to him. he had the bird feed him a bit of fleash it had brought him from the just bearly alive man. That was teh last straw for the man and the tears began running freely down his face and a hystarical scream erupted from him. LUcifer grined saddistically at this and hopped down from his perch. he walked arcoss the bloody, limb littered floor with out so much as looking where he stepped. The cunching sound on his shoes crushing bones seemed to echo with the hystarical screams of the man creating a haunting melody that would have given even the worst demon children nightmares. "Your turn." Luficer whispered into the mans ear as he walked past him to the entrance of the biulding. Fallowing in the demons wake was the sounds of birds ripping the fleash off of a screaming man.

[Milady Nythrin]

Kanika did a small groan and looked at her beyond angry young King,".....Mis Nythrin's new body transported out of the room when we were watching her.... Lucifer and I had gone to look for her, when we found her outside the castle walls, she was trying to leave when a dark aura spirited her away." She gasped a bit for air because of the pain Orfeo's power had put her through," Some men....tried to take her.....pur.....purity.....Lucifer..... Lucifer is dealing with those still alive.........right now....." She reached down at her case on her waste and took out the pill they put in Nythrin earlier,"...They...they had put this in her body...... to keep her... in her true form......to kill her......." Kanika stopped talking to grasp for breath, but still hold out her hand with the pill.

In the West, the generals and the soldiers continued fighting the never-ending armadas. So of the soiders were injures and some of the new troops were near death. "They don't seem to be letting up anytime soon, General Jatana," Liuentent Oune gasped for breath. "Getting tired?" Jatana asked with a slight gasp. "They are relentless, I'll give them that," The youngest general said, gasping slightly. Kwenos to was relentless," Is that all ya got goin' for ya, asswholes? I'm not even tired yet." He had told that to the enemy as he charged right into them and attacked viciously. In a farther, but still close part of the Western region of the planet, the medical part of the army were already working. "Almost done, General," The medical general's luitenant told him. "Good.... I hate how long this takes," The young General sat down in the middle of the circle, the inner surronding soilders finishing the preperations of the circle, the outer defending it. The young General chanted a long and powerful healing spell, cutting open the many, many stitches on both of his palms and legs, letting the held in blood pour freely. As this was done, the blood went in the ground and went toward those with demon blood, healing them to a major degree. "Ah?" General Kwenos looked over his shoulder in mid fight," Seems like useless is now here huh?" After healing up the wounds, the young general stood up, not even panting. He stitched up his palms and legs a break neck pace, and then removed the small stitches on both his thumbs. Three long staffs with poison barbs at the tips appeared,"......Useless?" He looked at his troops and luitenant," Heal the instant blood is spilt. Understand?" "Yes, sir," The understood. ".....I'm not useless, Kwenos. Afterall, your outer assistant didn't betray you," He put one of the staffs in his mouth attacked the enemy with flash like speed, actually using the poison to kill them instead of the actuall staffs.

Zen was still past out, but she shook from the wounds as the stung painfully. Soon after she started to groan softly from the pain.

[High Priestess Silver]

Lucifer appeared back in the room at that moment licking his finger's free of blood. "Hello my lord." He said gleefully, still on a high from the eairlyer actions. "It has been quite the interesting day." Orfeo growled and pulled Zen out of Kanika's arms and into his befor etaking the pill from Kankia and examining it. He's powers released Kanika from their binds moments later. "Lucifer what was the fate of the men who had dared to try and take what is mine?" He asked his voice deadly calm. Lucifer grined malichiously. "Oh they turned into a wonderfull dinner for my bird my lord." He answered every movment he made showing his extream glee. "Good. I must go now, but I will return and we will discuss this." Orfeo snarled setting zen onto the bed then leaving the room and heading for the battle field. "Lucifer Kanika come. I believe my sweet will be fine for the moment without you."

[Milady Nythrin]

"Yes, your Highness," Kanika said after regaining her breath and returning to normal. In her mind, she was a bit dissappointed in herself for her failure to keep Zen at the palace and Orfeo out of his rage.

"Numbers of great," the young general said,".....We can't hold back anymore can we?" "Ya were holdin' back? Figures," General Kwenos looked back at the enemy soilders with glee. "So were you," The medical general threw one of his staffs in the air and did a full sweep of enemies with one in his hand before catching the staff back in his mouth. ' It seems we have no choice,' General Jatana translated for General Fuua's signing. "...........Fine then. Jus' realse it smart asses," General Kwenos took a quick step back before whispering a small demonic letter, realsing his held back abilites. The other General's followed suit, before charging or straiking back at the enemies, but taking out much larger numbers at once.

After awhile, Zen sat up. She grabbed at chest, the pain almost unbearable to her. "...Ah.......l...let's see........ Ki....Kilanra," She whispered the healing spell. Though weaker on a different planet, since Nythrin was with her, it carried the same strength. She looked around for some spare clothes while her wounds slowly, but surely healed, finally grabbing a huge dark grey cloth. She sat backdown on the bed, ripping it up to fit herself: One part wrapping it around her upper torso and a secong part tieing it together as mid-sized skirt. She used the extra parts to wrap around the parts on her arms and leg areas what were taking the slowest time to heal. She then did a small gasp and looked around on the bed. She let out a sigh when found a 1 1/2" in diameter locket,"......I'm must have left it here when I tried to transport out..... thank goodness I did...." She openned it and flipped through the 10 pages (20 pages front and back) and looked at the pictures of her family and friends. She had managed to keep it out of Silver's sight since she knew she would take it way from her. " Zen...." Nythrin was in the reflection of a mirror nearby. "...I know Nythrin...... but it's the last part of where I originally came from I have, the last part of the ones that loved me for me," Zen told her. "........I understand..... As much as I know we can't, our best bet is to stay here for now. I don't know if you can sense it yet, but I feel as if what happened to us earlier and whatever is happening in the west of this planet is connected," Nythrin with a slight amount of fear showing in her face. "...I'm sorry, Nythrin," Zen had gotten up and sat down in fron of the mirror. "...Why?" Nythrin looked at her," You did nothing." "...I couldn't protect you. If I had put up more of a fight or if I ran out of the dark aura, your purity wouldn't have been in danger. Even though I wasn't awake after the thing was put into my mouth, I'm not stupid to not realize that I was naked, tied up, and in house with men. I should have tried--" "Zen. Don't be hard on yourself, " Nythrin told her," ......If anything, I failed to protect you." "Protect me? Why? I'm just your physical. You could always get another one if I died," Zen looked at her confused. " ....You....you will understand one day, Zen. For now, just wait," Nythrin changed back to Zen's reflection. A still confused Zen laid back down on the bed and looked at all the pictures again," Mom......dad..........Kiui......Sie........Goan........Dus......" She paused, looking at the boy her age's picture with a smile. "...I'm sorry I couldn't give you my answer, Dus. If I hadn't been taken away from Iskilis Town to Makia, I'd be with you right now......" She whispered to the picture before continuing to name them off. She fell asleep soon afterwards after getting to the second to last picture that had her parents, her friends Kiui, Sie, Goan, and Dus, her aunt, uncle, and nine cousins in it when they went to her uncles animal farmland.
