Mizuru braced the attack, and was about to attack in return when Ariya seemed to appear in front of the the dragon. "Now, now," she said as if she was talking to a group of quarreling kids, "let's not fight now, or else you won't be able to watch the show we have for you." She chuckled and winked.
The woman stomped her foot. "Get out of the way right now!"
Ardiya looked at her, still smiling. "Michiyo, right? Your little love will be surprised to see you." Michiyo growled.

With her normal tactic of actions first, thinking later, Rayne sprang forward at Ardiya. Her claws extended, sabers bared as she visciously growled. She wanted to sink her teeth into the womans flesh.

Hyo lept forward, turning into his snow leopard form mid-air, and pounced on Rayne, pinning her to the ground. He had abnormal strength for his size. Calm down.... He snapped, then turned to Ardiya. What do you mean...show?

Ardiya hadn't flinched at all when Rayne made an attempt to pounce her. She would've been prepared for a counter attack if Hyo hadn't stepped in. She opened the door into the chamber and stepped aside to allow them in. "Come in and see for yourself."
Michiyo looked at Ardiya, then ran through the door, stopping dead when she saw the scene in front of her: Jen and Lupei were sitting on a summoning-like circle to the side, dressed in white strapless gowns and crosses scared on their foreheads, Cynyr had a noose around his neck and his arms were tied back, and Vince and Orochi were beside him, watching him. In the middle of the large circular chamber was a large circle with markings and symbols in a different language written in blood, and sitting in the center, with his arms bound together behind his back in chains was Kaori. On his forhead, back, and left side of his body were still-fresh bloody scars, symbols used for some sort of summoning.
Kaori's weary-looking green eyes wandered up to Michiyo's figure. "M...Michiyo...what're you doing..."

Hyo got up from Rayne and dashed into the room. Not good... He though grimly. He kept an eye on Rayne so she didn't do anything stupid. Don't do anything....I'm sure if you do you friends will suffer for it...So don't jump ahead and attack. He told Rayne, hoping she would listen.
Cynyr could smell Rayne, though it was dim since his nostrils were so full of the smell of blood. His head, which had been down, lifted. "Rayne..." He muttered, then shouted. "Rayne! Get out of here!"

Rayne was suprised, if not almost baffled by Hyo's smaller form taking her own down so easily. She growled slightly, then much louder after what he'd told her and what she saw as she got to her feet. She obviously didn't like the thought of simply standing around, wanting to run in and do something, but she restrained herself, however hard it maybe. She snarled slightly, ears twitching as Cynyr yelled for her and her eyes went to him. Her tail lashed about angrily as she saw the noose around his neck, wanting to get to him and free him but she didn't budge, and she didn't plan on running as Cynyr had said.

Kazuma seemed to have appeared in front of Jen and Lupei, his back to the two. His lips were spread into a wicked smile. "Now that the waiting's over..."
The door of the chamber slammed shut and locked so that no one could leave.
Michiyo began to run forward, but Ted got in front of her and pushed her back. Michiyo gave Ted a questioning look, but Ted kept a straight face.
Kazuma cracked his knuckles and grabbed Jen and Lupei's foreheads and recited a phrase in a different language. The circle began to glow, and the two girls began to struggle, a sudden pain shooting through their bodies into their very souls...
They both let out a cry, then went limp. Kazuma let them go and they both collapsed, unmoving. In his hands were what looked like glowing, white mist, the souls of Jen and Lupei. He felt like he was playing God in a way, which made him smile even more.

The tiger-like beast let out a roar of anger as she saw what Kazuma had done. She and Cynyr had promised to protect Jen, and now what had happened!? Her tail flicked angrily, ears back as she took off at an extremely fast run, heading straight for Kazuma, wanting nothing more but to rip his throat out.

Hyo shot out and tackled Rayne, slamming into her side and ramming her into a wall. STOP IT! He has the girl's souls! If you attack him now they might be lost! Hyo snapped. I know this isn't something you want to watch...but wait until he's done, then we can attack...I'm sorry, but it's our only choice!
Cynyr's eyes widened, tears welling up in them. "N-No...Leave them alone...Please..." He pleaded, though he knew it was useless, he then looked at Rayne. "Rayne..Why...Why didn't you go?" His gaze drifted back to the floor, his head dropping down. Tears splashed against the hard floor below. "Why..." He sobbed.

Vince looked at Cynyr then rolled his eyes. "What a sissy..." he muttered.
Kazuma then approached Kaori in the center. Kaori looked at Kazuma, his expression full of hate, but he knew that it was all over. Kazuma looked at Ted and Ted nodded. He jumped back a few feet and spread his arms apart. A wall of see-through fire sprouted up to prevent anybody from jumping in and stopping the ritual.
Kazuma crouched down in front of Kaori. "Too long," he said, "too long I've waited for this moment..." He clutched Kaori's shoulders and the souls sank into his skin, giving him a weird, icy feeling. Kazuma recited another phrase in the same language, and he yelled the last few words.
The circle began to glow brightly, and so did the scars around Kaori's body. Kazuma jumped back out of the way.
Kaori struggle and squirmed, pain spreading through his body. The strangest and most painful sensation came from deep inside of him, his soul seemed to merge with Jen and Lupei's to increase the power inside. He began to be surrounded by light, and his mouth opened in a silent scream, the pain he's feeling too great for him to make any sound at all.
"Vince!" Kazuma yelled, and tossed a dagger at Vince, who caught it.
With a smile Vince's cold voice whispered in Cynyr's ear, "It's your turn." With a swift move, Vince stabbed the dagger into Cynyr's stomach, pulled it out, and, watching his timing, pushed the half demon into the light.

Rayne let out a roar of pain as her wounded shoulder hit the wall. She struggled to move forward, hating the strength of Hyo that kept her from succeeding. She didn't want to watch it happen, she couldn't, she had to do something. She kept trying as Kazuma did the ritual but the biggest peak in her struggle came with the dagger being thrust into Cynyr stomach. The tiger gave a furious cry, thrashing wildly, trying to ram her head into Hyo to dislodge him from her.

Hyo was having a hard time keeping Rayne back, and Rayne's increased thrashing as Cynyr was stabbed finally threw him off, causing him to land hard on his side. Stop... he pleaded.
Cynyr winced as he was stabbed, then screamed as emense pain shot through his body. Every part of him hurt, and it seemed to hurt more every second.
It was then that something appeared in the air and shot straight down towards Kaori, seeming to go through him. The thing materialized from light into Shijiku, still holding Sisisee in one arm, and two small dim white balls of light in her free hand. Her feet touched down on the ground, just outside the circle. She knew it would be a bad idea to be inside that circle for long, her energy would be sapped.

Kazuma's eyes widened as he watched Shijiku appear, but sighed in relief to see only a small fragment of the two girls' souls in her hand, which meant...
Kaori finally found his voice and let out a deafening scream as his back tore apart and a pair of large bloody wings burst out. The bright light dimmed, and Kaori collapsed face-down, his wings hovering a bit before falling limp.
Michiyo yelled Kaori's named and ran forward, but stopped because of the heat from the firewall. She then looked at Ted. "Ted! What's wrong with you! Why didn't you help Kaori!" She looked back at Hyo and Rayne. "Is he possessed or something?!" Ted looked away from her and his gaze fell onto Kaori's limp and bloody body.
Kazuma was looking over Kaori, smiling on how successful it turned out despite Shijiku's interruption. The halo's just missing... he thought, looking at Shijiku. But that doesn't matter much. He looked over at Vince, and Vince nodded.
Vince jumped at Shijiku, sending a wave of fire at her. Meanwhile, Kazuma walked over to Kaori, stepping over Cynyr's body.

( T_T Oliver.. )
Rayne let out a furious cry as she heard Cynyr scream. She was irrate, her large form heading straight for the firewall, aiming to run straight through it, not careing what happened to her. She wanted to get to the others and stop what Kazuma was doing. Once more she chose action instead of stopping to think of what would be more efficient.

WHY DON'T YOU LISTEN?! GET AWAY FROM THAT!! Hyo snapped, tackling Rayne once again just before she reached the fire wall.
Cynyr's screaming soon ceased as he lost conciousness.
Shijiku jumped back out of the way, still holding Sisisee and the souls. She couldn't fight with her hands full. She set Sisisee down and charged at Vince.
