The Melodious Falls...(PM to Join)
A lone bench beneath a bare tree occupied, and winged girl and her companion carrying cocoa in insulated cups. A sip too fast would burn the tongue, but the taste would be pleasent and smooth. The falls are near, one would be able to hear it if one sat and meditated, concentrating on nothing and everything.

To be here, yet nowhere.

Amber took a cautious sip of her cocoa, she had waited until the cold wind could cool it down. Hot but not burning fresh from the corner cafe a block and a half away from the park. Akai had not said much of what he wanted to say back at the dorm; it had concerned her friend V, the lady of golden hair that radiated saint-like patience. At times, V did remind her of Ishmerai, the cherub whom she had only met so few times. Her eyes, golden honey, were similar to her friend's.

The half-angel's eyes gazed over at Akai, unending curiousity over what he had wanted to say, what weighed so heavy in his mind. Ah, but she could not ask, it would be rude. Instead:

"The hot drinks they make at that cafe are so delicious. Goes best with the food and snacks."

Re: The Melodious Falls...(Akai, Open)
An amalgamation of feelings, emotions, thoughts, and situations swirled through his mind just as a finger swirled around the rim of the cup. Swirl, swirl goes the finger, round and round goes the little white marshmallows, riding along the edges of a mini vortex that was brought exsistence by the finger. Those eyes, soft and pale - artic cold and ocean blue, those so famaliar eyes that she likes lift up from the rim of the cup to look over to her, watching as she speak - words draw the eyes and the vision of shear lovelyness that is Amber gets the full of Akai's attention.

"Yes, this was a good idea. Come out here and get some fresh air, stretch out our legs and clear our heads" A contrast of words to how he feels, the head was not clear of thoughts, something was still there. "V--" The name was spoken again, the way he pronounced that one letter, that one name, showed the great endearment that was starting to build inside. "--she reminds me of myself - reserved, curious. She has this aloof quality about her..." Smitten? Very well may be, but Akai's attitude, his very demeanour was cool - even when angered words that were formed were as cold as the North Pole. But that was just one side of the coin.

Lick.

Before taking a drink of hot coco, he sucked of the liquid before it fall to the ground. (Savor the flavor) The warmth of the drink brings the very nature of its essence to Akai - the one thing he needed other than a jacket. It warms the body, the insides, a shivers run through the shoudlers as he huddled close within himself - a cool breeze comes by, singing its tale of the wind. A wind that lifts the veil of hair revealing the full of his face, features, and expression - a look that is all to rare, all to unfamiliar to any's eyes that look upon him.

And just as quick as it came - it was gone.

Amber did smile at him when he spoke about V. Was she like him? Maybe at first meeting, but it was not so now that she had come to know her. The girl took another sip of her hot cocoa, a few marshmallow bits slipped past her lips.

"V...she's an interesting person. She's polite and she reminds me of someone who would be raised in high society, so that's understandable. Gabriel watches over her, I'm sure of it."

What did that mean? Akai wouldn't know of her gift to her, the graven image of the Angel Gabriel on a necklace. She had blessed it using the prayer of Gabriel; she was sure the gentle angel watched over her soul.

"But yes...she's sweet. What made you think of her so suddenly?"

Re: The Melodious Falls...(Akai, Open)
A smile held fast to his lips - it wasn't that normal smile, not that thin as a razor blade and twice as sharp smile. It wasn't cocky but it was more genuine and real, born of something else - a new expression - undescribable to Akai so he doesn't make much of it. With his back resting against the bench, one leg starts to draw itself up, resting across the other knee.

"I don't know -- she just is..." Honest and true, he wouldn't lie Amber intentionally, but he just wasn't expressive enough on how he feels, keeping things bottled inside of him came naturally - it was a by product of the lack of real human interaction that was built up over the years. A free hand moved, smoothing over the skin at the back of his neck (X) almost a nervous motion, but never quite that serious.

"Should I not think of her, or not speak of her, Gabriel's her jealous boyfriend?" Someone's been reading Cosmo... Head tilted to the side, eyes turned to meet her own as they sat on the bench in the wake of insonmia that gripped them both tight and didn't let go. So easy to lose himself into the dark pools of her eyes, so easy for her to nearly drown in the freezing oceanic hues of his own.

"Archangel Gabriel," she replied simply, sipping the hot chocolate again. So sweet and so smooth, perfect to compliment the cold weather. The cold weather that would change for the budding of spring in a few week, the final day of winter that Amber was dreading to remember.

"I asked the Gabriel to watch over her. The angels...they ignore my prayers, but I know in my heart that they would watch over another if I ask."

She quickly changed the subject back to her friend. It was something in his words, in his gestures...Was it possible that Akai had feelings for V? It was understandable to see why, V was pretty (she should have many admirers). She reached over and patted Akai on the shoulder.

"Was that the context of what you wanted to say earlier?"

Those artic blue eyes didn't pull away from as she talked, listening and hanging on every breath of a word that was spoken. Occasionally lifting the insulated cup to press to lips that ached to be warm, all to cold for boy with no jacket but liquid was all to warm - the perfect balance.

"Something like that, yeah"
To answer her question - but still there was something more, her comforting pat on his shoulder made him calm down even more, shoulders that were tense and taut eased in the wake of her smooth to the touch finger tips.

"Amber - you're a good friend...We should hang out more."

Switch the subject again, from V to Amber. It would be best for him not to dwell on such things cause it will just fill his head up with thoughts that shouldn't be there.

Amber smiled as warm as her cocoa, she took another sip in a thoughtful manner. She and Akai ahd been spending much time together. This time it was partially bad; the entire reason she had been cooped up in her room was because of the incident at the furniture store. And then the other time at the Shattered Blessing, now under renovation once again, thanks to Alex. Other than that, she had a pleasent time with him.

"Yeah, we do already. But we should more often. Just not when someone will go crazy, or when there's destruction involved."

The winged girl sighed, her breath a small cloud.

"I think I'm cursed...it always happens."

Re: The Melodious Falls...(Akai, Open)
"Yeah, the situation seems to always take a turn for the worse..."

A small smile formed on lips that just took another sip of the hot cocoa - half way through it and out of marshmallows now, all that was left was the super sweetend drink. There they (Akai and Amber) sat, in the late of night on a bench - the sound of the falls plays a never ending melody in the back ground, such a soothing sound - the light mist of water brings a fresh smell with it.

The over cast that was hanging over head soon parted to give vision the crecent moon once again, the park illuminates further with the aid of moonlight - where they sat underneath the florecent halogen glow of the lamp. A branch from the tree behind them creak in protest to the wind that howls through the night, a deep bellow that draws the eyes of Akai - looking over shoulder, it was nothing there. As he turned back around to look at Amber a look of a jubilation filled that half of his face that was shown, she sat to the left of him where she can see all the little nuances and reactions to what she said, she wasn't cut off completely from his emotions.

Drip, drop, drip, drop.

Water droplets fell into his cup, these were large, massive drops that were a contrast to the mist that lingers through the air, Akai looked into his cup as the brown liquid nerely splashed on him. The cup was thrown down when he thought it was going to splash him, Amber - she received the same treatment - drip, drop, drip, drop goes the water into her cup, on her dress and on his legs, shoulders, hair - provoking Akai to look up again.

"Little love birds out for a stroll tonight, in my park..."The voice was charamatic, charming almost - staning in the branches of the tree his body stretched out to the full of his height, hair flowed like the falls of Naigra themselves, a shimmering silken water blue. The gi he would have been wearing around the torso is down, wrapped around the waist covering part of the black pants - its looks as though he was straight out of a samurai movie in the old days. He wasn't overly muscular, nothing like Amber's friend Akai - the strength of his muscles were deceptive. Chains were snapped taut from the weight they bared--

--Laid across the lower back (parallel to the ground) was a massive Kitana - near seven feet lenght is the best on can guess when looking at the sheath of the weapon, chains from the tips of the sheath rise up and connect to a colar around his neck then down again to his wrists, this would appear to restrict the movements. The sheath, drips the water - like an aura, an endless stream of water runs along the length of the sheath. Drip,drop,drip,drop. "Little love birds, must want to die..."Words form as sweet as honey to ear, make one just want to give themselves to him, a practiced technique it is. The beauty of this creature was boundless that stood in the tree.

Akai stood up from the bench, his hand grabbing onto Amber's as he came to a stand, watching that man that stands over head, a sneer on lips from the last words spoken, just another MHS freak is what this youth think - just another MHS Victum tonight...

Re: The Melodious Falls...(Akai, Open)
Waterdrops was probably the first sign that something was wrong; not warm enough for snow to melt or for it to rain. Next came the charming yet creepy song, sung by a samurai man (a man of water, maybe a kami of water) while watching the two of them from a tree. A massive katana caught her eye before Akai took her hand, darting from the bench.

Amber hid behind Akai, looking up at the samurai man with wide dark eyes. There was an air of silence between them, the roar of the falls could be heard in the distance. Who in the world was this person? And why did she not sense that they had been watched? He was handsome, but leaning more of the silver-tongued demon sort of handsome. It wasn't a grigori, but judging by the katana, this situation wasn't going to go well. Her hand was still linked with Akai's, they would both have to fight or run like hell.

See? It always happens! There must be a curse!

"Who's..that?" She whispered to Akai, worried.

Re: The Melodious Falls...(Akai, Open)
Akai - he didn't look back over his shoulder when Amber whispered that question into his ear, her soft spoken words making this young boy wonder as well. A death threath now hangs over their so caution was not thrown to the wind, recklessness would not be abound. Fingers interlaced with one another and before Akai could speak

"Whispered words? In my park?" Their attention was snapped back to him - so affluent, eloquent and graceful - It was as he was at the top of the aristocratic circle, a king of kings and this said park was his kingdom. "Do not do such things (whisper) in my presence oh beautiful one, it leads me to believe that my presence is unwanted and surely, you wouldn't want to believe that--" So smooth, the way he moved bared the markings of kingship a thousand fold - a hand lifted up, chains rattle with the movement as perfect fine bone fingers comb through the waves a blue hair, layer upon layer lifted and falls (Niagra) back down into perfect placement. "--would you, little love bird." A deadly smile lined thin lips - so seductive, so wanting, haunting beauty stared at Amber, his eyes looked right passed Akai as though he didn't even exist.

"I don't know what this guy, but he is starting to tick me off..." Mercurial
Just a moment ago, everything was fine and going perfect, and now - the self proclaimed king of Niagra Park has shown his face to shoot it all down hill. And what Amber can sense, is evil - it leaks through his eye balls, out of his ears - it is stagnate in the air that surrounds him and being a creature that is Heaven sent, but Hell bound - Amber can just get the feeling that this won't end well. And what she can physically feel in Akai's grip - is the tight, intense squeeze for just a moment then the touch left her as he released her hand. Never before has anyone seen Akai take his fighting stance - Magama - hands extend, the core weight of his frame is spread evenly over his feet that more than shoulder width apart, a slow breath was in drawn, preparing himself for the worse, the inevitible.

"Introduce yourselves, so your graves shall be properly marked" A command from a king, a king that expects to answered. Water's mist - the lsight haze of water that filled air can see growing thicker before him where it gather's and solidifies itself, as hard as water could possibly. To the edge of the branch steps formed in a path leading down to the ground - right before them. Running like falls, almost something would expect to see in a fountian, but no this was a created and controlled by the proclaimed king - Step, by step he walked down his liquid stair case closer towards them, danger rising.

Re: The Melodious Falls...(Akai, Open)
The way the man spoke "On beautiful one", honey dipped knives of words and chains rattling struck a sort of fear in Amber's heart. The king of Niagra Park who spoke with such articulate words, eloquent and deadly. Coercing her with those honey-sweet words, the tongue of a demon. She stayed behind Akai, only her dark eyes peering over his shoulder and not saying a thing to the man as he stepped closer to them, the steps of water (this had to be a dream, water cannot do those things). To give a demon a name was much like giving permission to curse the soul. Amber wanted to run, far away from this man of demonic tongue, the old fear driving her to try and make a run for it.

Keep him away please...

"Akai..." she said gently, frightened. Her sword was at her side (she carried it with her more often than not since the furniture store), yet she couldn't reach for it just yet. The phantom blood of earlier deaths made her wary to reach for it immediately. This man was deadly, and Akai was going to stay his ground.

I'll have to fight then...

Re: The Melodious Falls...(PM to Join)
The charisma of a king, with the patient of a hair trigger, and the temper of the raging falls (Niagra). That final step from the stairs of water(step into liquid) was done rather lazily, hesitant maybe? -Doubtful. Such arrougance, it bleeds through his skin and breathes through the spoken word.

"You shall answer your king when he is addressing you" The distance between the three of them was a short, one hand lifting up so regal a motion created, such defining movements turned savage in the blink of an eye - Akai was lifted up from his feet as the hand connected with the young boys jaw bone. Chains rattle then settle. Amber's shield, gone. Through the distance the body shot through the air until his back was aquainted with a nearby tree (Crack) There was a not a scream of pain, but a grunt of a fury while Akai tried to gather his senses again...

"My dear, indulge me. I offer you one final request and then I shall make it so your grave stone is a grand attraction - legends of your beauty shall grow and spread amoung the tourist of the falls." Such a sly smile, so trusting, so warm, so manipulative. A hand lifted up, that very same hand that struck Akai, but there was no such reaction to Amber Ramius, instead cold fingers, as cold as ice and chilled to the bone finger tips touched her chin, guiding her to look left then right. "Tell me your name you exquisite creature you - are you an Angel, sent after my own heart?"

A growl was heard in the distance - maybe not so familiar to Amber's ears, teeth gritted down hard enough to snap steel in half as Akai stood from the frozen solid ground, hands pushing him up, pale blue staring with hatred and comtempt, something snapped on the inside and Akai wasn't quite Akai, he was pissed off. "Don't you touch her..." A rasp of breath, fire would leak from lips if he burned any hotter. A spat of blood was spit to the ground, splashing into little droplets from the force.

The King was distracted when the peasant spoke, eyes turning over to Akai - watching the young boy with a look of damnation, it was as if he wanted to scream Off with his head!. But no such cry came forth, instead - one hand gripped the handle of the Katana behind him and the other pointed towards Akai - Those stairs of water moved, possessed like and changing form, fluid (doh!) as the moved, the shape changed into a-- "Water style - Dragon Wave" and charged at Akai - there wasn't enough time for him to respond or react, the dragon slammed into his chest and pressed up against the tree, pinning him with the constant force. The shape wrapped around the trunk of the tree, keeping AKai pressed there against it - oxygen cut off.

"I am Sogetsu - King of Niagra Park, you will give me proper respect or die crying...little love bird" Sogetsu back was turned to Amber, she was nothing more but an after thought for the moment while he dealed with the pauper.

Amber had wanted to scream but it was stuck in her throat. She froze in place as the (self-proclaimed) king of charisma had landed the first hit on Akai, knocking him stright into a tree. Chains rattled, and Amber had stepped back once away from him.

"My dear, indulge me. I offer you one final request and then I shall make it so your grave stone is a grand attraction - legends of your beauty shall grow and spread amoung the tourist of the falls."
The man's hand reached out to her and she had almost been sure that he would strike her too. Instead the corpse-cold fingers tipped her chin up. She averted her eyes from his, couldn't bear to look at his eyes, fearing she would see the void of his soul, that it would suck the life out of her.

"Tell me your name you exquisite creature you - are you an Angel, sent after my own heart?"

Then something distracted him from her. Whatever it was, it had angered Sogetsu enough that he had turned on Akai and attacked him with the possesed water, pinning him to that tree. Amber looked at the pendulum in her hand, then to Sogetsu's back. If it could help Akai...

"Sogetsu, please stop," she said softly, and she reached out to grab his arm. Her dark eyes looked up at him so pleadingly, he had gone easy on her so far so this had to be a chance to try.

And then she pressed her hand down, pressing the crystal pendulum down against his skin. It might feel cool to the touch for a moment...and then it would burn with greater intensity than any flame, burn into the skin. That was the power of an object's affinity; harmonious to one, but painful to others.

Re: The Melodious Falls...(PM to Join)
Flash point - Amber grabbed Sogetsu's arm as the spoken from her plea for him stop caught his attention for less than a moment. There was that smile ever present on his lips, as wicked as the Devils own grin and twice as sharp. "I will stop when the last--" The pendulum pressed down against, seering, burning, intense as the red hot sun up close a personal perhaps to him.

There was a change, a flash in his demeanor, appearence - something monsterious showed. Amber can nearly swear on her own life seen him change green for an instant before she saw his hand move, the one controlling the Water Dragon, dipped down to grip the handle of the katana--

Coughing, Akai hit the ground again, gasping for air, gasping for a breath to fill his lungs - despite being able to hold his breathe for a long time, the rushing tide of the Water Dragon was stealing away his breath with the constant vortex swirl - dry drowning him in water.

--the handle of the blade that was gripped was swung around, the sheath that goes drip,drop,drip,drop with a water aura surounding it cracked into Amber side to put some space between them. "This is how you repay the kindness of my gestures?" No more did smile show, are illuminous eyes shine, no there was a change, a scowl mark that face of beauty, brows deepen with lines of a anger spliting through his skin. A puddle of water rises, wrapping around the seered arm to sooth him. (small swirling vortex)

"Will you shut up already!" Bold words coming from someone who just nearly had the life choked from their lungs, bold words indeed. An off set triangle was formed between, Akai to the right and Amber to left (soar ribs and all). "All you have done is babble on about YOUR kingdom and our grave stones every since you showed up. I can't stand your kind..." Vemon dripped words, Akai had lost his cool and was now truely pissed off. Those eyes glowed red, muscles tensed up and with an explosion of an movement the action just picked up a notch.

Sogetsu's hand stayed firm around the handle of the blade as the young boy charged in, within range - chains rattled and the glint of the enchanted blade was shown as the entire length of the massive katana was drawn from its sheath, the action was a blurry to eyes that could not keep up and Akai's eyes can keep up, processing information faster - he stopped instantly and ducked the arching swing of the blade, with his legs coiled beneath him, the spring effect of augmented muscles shot Akai from the ground, a butterfly kick rocking Sogetsu across the face in rapid sucession each foot strikes.

Amber can swear she see's him flash again - into something else, something monterious - blue skin, scales, or is her mind playing tricks on her? Sogetsu reels back from the blows, the heavy blade falling to the ground, cracking the concrete underneath them withs it weight - chains ever rattle. "I shall spill your insides boy..." A promise, or just idle threaths? "And you--" Eyes look to Amber and her pendulum, the pendulum that seered, burned, and scarred his perfect flesh. "You shall know suffering..."

He raised the bladed, took a step, swung at her pretty little head.

The blade went into her side and the girl slid across the ground, a few feet away from Sogetsu. She pushed herself to sit up, nursing her side. Two days ago, she had left the clinic. Thank goodness her wing was able to heal fine, the cuts she sustained were gone.

He's strong...very strong...

Akai was fighting him, his moves so quick that her eyes almost couldn't catch up. Amber watched, her mind trying to think calmly through the situtation. Could Sogetsu possibly be able to hold them both off if they attacked together? Only one way to find out, she unsheathed her sword.

Just in time too, his sword was aiming right for her head. Amber held up her sword and -clang- a parry. Too close for comfort, but his weight on the sword was much more than hers.

"Akai! Help!"

Re: The Melodious Falls...(PM to Join)
The massive Katana was parried indeed, Amber manipulating the weight of heavy katana attack to slide the down the length of her own sword and drive to the sword to the ground. Such a niffty move to give an opening. She makes a plea, her words compell Akai into action, to move like a man possessed, with a mission, a purpose - to force him to fight for someone other than himself.

Akai moved in - a foot placed itself on Sogetsu's tigh as he attempted to free his blade from the concrete, such a clean cut it was into the ground that the blades edge was now stuck, and Akai's left foot, lifted up and cracked into the back into of his head - doubling him over from the force - a force that might have killed a lesser being. The blade is enbedded deeper into the ground and growing fury of the samurai is bordering on exploding. Out of the air - Akai is snatched up by the throath as the man came back to the full of his full height in one easy motion. Fingers gripped tight and sealed off that wind pipe that was drawing in air. A kick to the face followed by another and another, and another goading the fingers to squeeze harded.

Amber can see the change, as well as Akai - from beauty to beast. Skin turned to scale and gurth, arms tensed up and grew in mass as the Sogetsu changed into his true form. Seiryu. The jaw bone pops, finger tips turned to claws, eyes slitted to a retillian nature - yellow. Newly changed beast resembles a half dragon or something of that nature.

"Play time...has ended!"Gutteral and fiece stands the beast with his grip around the young boys neck, choking the life from his body.

The winged girl saw the change in the man, and it did worry her for a moment. But there was a different worry that took precedence: Akai was in danger and she was in danger...no she couldn't allow herself to tap that reserve of energy, the nephilim side of her again. She readied her usual chi gust attack, but something else was different. A set of words came to mind, traveled through her body and her chi before the Latin words escaped her lips.

"Vis Vires!"

Amber slashed as usual, but the gust of chi did something different as well, she could feel it as the blast of wind shot towards Sogetsu-beast. Even if he were to dodge it, the chi gust would follow like a homing missile.

Re: The Melodious Falls...(PM to Join)
The monster, the (selfproclaimed) King of Niagra Park has now turned into the beast of Niagra Park. A Seiryu, a dragonlike demon spirit with the power to control water in various forms, most notably - Ice. The fingernails digging into Akai's neck turned into plates of diamond edge claws, blood was drawn.

Amber said something after a moments thought, drawing the eyes of the Seiryu to look towards her as the chi gathered up and she fired off that blast of wind towards him. A sneer worked its way from the maw of creature as it leaped into the sky, eyes twisting to look down only to find that this thing, this gust of wind was following him - still holding onto Akai as his jump took him some 60 feet into the air now, he used the boy as a would be makeshift sheild, tossing him down towards the earth, towards the gust of wind - only to see the bend and twist of the wind to avoid Akai, and gather more speed seemingly - but that was the Seiryu, the apex his jump was reached. Slitted eyes widden as grunt exploded from the creature. With the now free hand, index finger and middle finger line up and draw out a symbol in the air. "Water style: Force Wall" The mist solidfied - water, was as steel concrete as the wall formed him at the last possible second - another symbol drawn and the wall wrapped the gust of wind - consealing it.

Descend - Akai trip to the ground was a short one and landing on his feet (perfection) was done with ease. Looking over at Amber from across the shoulder he spoke-- "I don't think we can stop him, not here...he seems to thrive on the mist, the water but--"A scowled lined his face, hidden underneath the veil of dark hair, that stares back towards the winged girl, she can feel it. "--we can't just run, I refuse to - not from this pompous, pretenious asshole..."

Descend - the Seiryu touched down on the ground again, his sword away from his hands but that sheath still radiated that water aura around it, the current seemed to be running a little slower than before, chains rattle as the demon spirit readied himself - the time for talking was done in his eyes and only the urge to kill was left in the wake.

Re: The Melodious Falls...(PM to Join)
It seemed this one was going to be a lot tougher than she had expected. Vis Vires did little to help, even though it was a brand new power (where did those words come from?) it had not much of an effect on the demon-king. She looked over at Akai, the little blood that was drawn around his neck. Blood, blood that looked so luminious when droplets would touch snow. So dark when there's a pool of it beneath a body. The life force that would seep from a headless body-

Those images come back and haunt me, I can't stop it! Just stop please!

She shook her head and stared at Akai, the demon had landed as easily (perfection in movement); her dark (were they getting darker?) eyes spoke her worries but she still spoke with her own voice. So gentle, so worried.

"What should we do then? We have to do something!"

Amber dashed towards Akai, but stopped short. She turned in Sogetsu's direction and tried again, lifting her sword up and slash-her sword cutting through the air. The gust of wind manifested and shot towards the demon-king of Niagara Park. Her movements were sharper, quick and forceful...was that thing inside her awakening again?

Her pendulum, attached to the hilt of her sword, was glowing from violet to dark blue, and growing darker with every passing second...

Akai eyes had turned from Amber - looking across the distance, watching the Seiryu with all the contemp that he could summon to well up within an expression, - a look could condemn a person - this Seiryu would be sent to the furthest depths of hellish pits of the otherside.

"I don't know - but I don't think dragging this out will be for the best." Grunt, he bit down into his lower lip - eyes seething with anger, seething with rage, seething with unbridaled fury.

Amber reacted to something, the arch of her blade swing upwards to release that gust of wind, it slices through the air on a mission of relentless assult - Sogetsu wasn't surprised, he expected it. In the air around them all, the mist rolled in, thicker, hazier than before - visbility faded away - the sound of the beast bellowing though, showed that gust of wind rang true to form and struck him as he conjured up the mist...

"Fu..."
A whisper of a breath that reaches Amber's ears. The growing frustation clearly readable through half spoken word, rising with new twist that battle is taking - and to think, all they wanted was some hot cocoa...

Mist, surrouds them, Amber can't even see Akai anymore.

"Oh beautiful one, I coming to get you...." Echoes of a voice scream in their ears...

"Akai?"

Mist, heavy like fog and just as thick. It clouded Akai from view, so much that she couldn't even hear his voice anymore. Sogetsu however was close by, she knew it but she couldn't see him. The girl eyes, her body darted around frantically, searching for Akai in the rolling mist.

"Oh beautiful one, I coming to get you..."

Amber gripped her sword, ready to fight back in whichever direction the demon of water came from. There was no way he was going to her, her posture was apparent of that. Her mind however...

Akai...where are you? I'm scared, I don't want to die...I won't die!

The pendulum darkened with every moment, sinking into midnight. Dark as her eyes would be, listless and devoid of the light that had been there just moments before. The rational part of her was closing up, hiding deep in her soul to be protected. A change had taken place, but it would not be apparent immediately. The eyes tell everything.

A precious gem in the dark.

"Come and find me..." she whispered, a challenge to that demon that desired her body, her death.
