Plains of Sorrow, The Netherworld...

[Kasumi Hitarashi]

The field was fresh with blood. What little grass that grew was covered by the fallen bodies of angels and devils. Horses, falcons, giant tigers, and even large rhino like creatures lay dead among them. The war was fresh and in the distance, the armies of both hell and heaven were rushing to battle once again in this very spot.

"May chaos guide us dear sister..."

Lilith's face was solemn as she looked over the battlefield.


Kasumi had transformed back into her succubus form as she looked over that battlefield.

"The Hell Walker must die. The knight must die as well. Each side will claim their heroes, we will claim Tash Romansage...Hayate will have much to worry about. He is no longer in the world of humans...he strides in the world of Gods."

[Kanzaki Hayate]

Hayate appeared through the portal.

"The chase is over. Surrender yourself."

His nodachi shimmered with what little light was available. He noticed the battlefield.

"A true endless battle of heaven and hell."

He kept walking as he began dispelling demons that were attacking him. He kept this pace until he would find where the true crinimals were.

[haoxian]

Kojin came into the plains"Looks like the way I left my village", she muttered tired of seeing the same blood shed."Kasumi what's wrong with you, Tash says[well, writes] that you're a good person, not the kind to destroy everyone, Ya' know"


"But,I got to do what I got to do", kojin sighed as she turned toward Hayate"you'll have to face me sensei"

[Saber]

As her eyes adjusted to the sight, she saw a bloody battlefield, one much bigger than her past life as King. There was death all about, the smell of blood on the ground. She soon saw the sight of the boy with the Japanese sword, only it was longer than before. "Wait!" She called to him but the sounds of battle echoed throughout the field. She was soon fighting herself against an army of dark creatures that came at her. Using her golden sword to fend off the dark creatures, she lost sight of the boy with the long Japanese sword.

(OOC: I wish for Tash's person to post next.)

[Tashy]

Tash burst through the portal, her bloody staff held tightly in her hands. What she saw only took her breath away for a few seconds...for she had seen it all before. Thanks to Zevilyn, she had witnessed Heaven and Hell's many battles, if only one of them. So, the sight did not surprise her much. What came next, however, did.

Three beasts charged at her immediately, two that seemed hellish while one was heavenly in nature. Apparently, they had both seen her as an enemy. Two hellhounds leapt at her, and she dove to the side to avoid them, only to be caught in the ribs by the foot of the angelic warrior clad in nothing but a robe of white and a helm. Tash was sent reeling back, coughing as she tried to get her breath back. The hellhounds suddenly snarled and leapt at the angel, who needed to take his attention away from Tash to defend himself. Tash took this opportunitty and ran for it.

Closing her eyes, Tash concentrated hard. Thanks to the overpowering smell of blood, it took 10 times the concentration to track someone. Squeezing her eyes shut tightly, Tash took a long sniff. It was faint...but she could 'smell' Kasumi. Charging her boots with Ki, Tash was off. She leapt over the heads of demons, ducked under the wings of angelic beasts, and dodged and weaved through everything else. She saw Saber and, before she could get to her, A wave of demons blocked her path. Tash wanted to swear but couldn't...Saber would be fine, so she didn't have to worry. She would go straight for Kasumi. After some skillful dodging and evasion, Tash saw Kasumi. Increasing her speed, Tash was running straight at her.....

((OOC: I'd like for Kasumi to post please.))

[Kasumi Hitarashi]

"They are here sister...."

Lilith stared at Tash as she was dashing towards them. Her evil red eyes were highly amused as the girl dodged and weaved between the raging war.

"Shall we continue with our little story dear sister...?"


"A little longer....the magic circle is already in place, she simply needs to walk into it."

Kasumi reverted back into her little girl form almost instantly.

"Then let's continue."

Lilith seized Kasumi forcibly digging the knife deeper into Kasumi's flesh until blood was pouring from her throat.

"Is this good sister?"

"Yes...perfect."

Blood trickled down her throat, but it was simply an illusion. The illusion though looked more than real from far away. Kasumi looked as if she were dying.

"Tash-ne....he...lp..." her lips were moving, but hardly a sound could be heard over the battle.

As Lilith pulled Kasumi farther and farther away towards a hill, the Angels and Demons rushed upon there spot, ready to engage each other. Lilith shapeshifted instantly, not changing deathgrip on the little girl. She now looked like an Angel.

"Brothers! Protect the King of Knights!" She cried.

With her free hand, she blasted the oncoming hellish army and immediately returned to her former self. The Angels ran towards Saber, protecting her as they waited for her command.

(OOC: Hayate, Siegfried, or Saber may post next.)

[Saber]

She slayed her next demon when she was now accompanied by these angels. "Who are thou? You wish for my person to lead you all?" The Angels from what she could distern nodded in agreement. "Very well." She arc her sword over her shoulder once again as she then charged foward first. "Ex-" She then swung hard against the air aiming her swing towards a large amount of demons. "-calibur!" Her golden blast of mana flew once again as she made a line of destruction. "Go forth and run down the enemy!" She felt her person get caught up with the battle as she ran foward taking charge of the army of Angels, the Angels were following her lead.

[Siegfried von Karma]

Siegfried appeared upon the battlefield not in his traditional flash of green light, but rather among the angels in a burst of searing flames. Without so much as a second glance, he dove his fist into the neck of the nearest of the holy warriors, killing him. He then swept another hand to his side, clearing a path for him, to the demon's with a large burst of fire.

He leapt into the air, closely followed by what seemed like hundreds of angels. Instantly, twice as many demons had leapt to meet then, covering his retreat. A line of commanders hastily scrambled over and dropped to one knee.

"M-Milord! You...have not transformed?"

Siegfried chuckled, "No, I will not play the little witches' game. Besides, as much as I may want to, I am bound by honor not to rip that knight's pretty little head off..." he said, sarcasm and venom lining his voice.

"ALL FORCES!" he shouted, his voice cutting through the battlecries, sounding much morelike the white-haired general, and less like the raven-haired teenager he was trapped as, "FORM RANKS, TWIN BATTALIONS, I WANT THE LEVIATHAN TO HAVE A CLEAR PATH!" he shouted

The forces scrambled out of the direct path, and the young Siegfried, or rather, Zevilyn, as Tash knew him, raised one hand to the sky.

"I call forth the World Snake, Come forth and devour the Angelic heretics!"

There were deafening peals of thunder, a vortex in the sky, and then, Jormangundr. The massive snake longer than any train, any city, even China's famous Great Wall, was upon the angels, ripping and tearing away at them. Its scales dripped poison, and each hiss shot forth gusts of freezing mist.

"May you fare well, my third summon."

[Kanzaki Hayate]

Hayate was not happy meeting Kojin again.

"I'm not your teacher now. I'm your enemy. The one who must arrest you and Hitarashi for distrubing the dimensional peace."

He gripped his nodachi with both hands.

"...I won't hesitate to kill if need be. But right now...I am here to stop the main source not induldge in a child's concept of protecting a person."

He disappeared suddenly. The number of demons that had surrounded them had suddenly fallen to pieces. He was not messing around as he had used his Ryu Moui Issen (Dragon Fury Flash.) One of his Kanzaki-Ryu Saishu Ougi (Kanzaki-Style Ultimate Technique). He reappeared again in front of Kojin.

"Now get out of here...you may be able to live a happier life out there."

He mach transferred into the air and then flew off towards where he could sense Hitarashi's magical energy.

[Saber]

She could see the Angels were being killed quickly. "Fall back, form your ranks. Run them down with a rain of arrows!" The Angels followed what she said and retreated for a while as then Angels who used bows quickly formed the ranks and began releasing a storm of arrows onto the Demons. "You, over there. Form your ranks and charge at the enemy. Leave none of them alive!" The Angels she had referred to were armed with spears. As the archer Angels were continuing their storm of arrows. The Angels with spears flew foward to destroy the Demons that were close by. The Demons she saw survive, she once again led the charge and battled with them, slaying the Demons down with single strokes of her golden sword.

[Dawnthief]

(OOC: not Matthew here. Check my post at the portal to realise how this is hapenning. muhahaha!)

The first of the Golems surged through the portal, attracting the attention of both Angel and Demon alike. A huge clawed beast tried to swipe the golem, but merely broke it's claws against the solid rock. An angellic centaur tried the same with it's sword, but that too shattered against the solid body.

The golem began to move forward, not caring about the attacks it had recieved, and began bowling through the ranks of angel and demon, leaving nothing in it's wake. The next golem came through, to have the same thing happen by two different entities, who too got shattere, and walked on by the ten tonne, twelve foot tall, flaming rock monsters. This looked upwards, saw hayate, and bega to run towards it, it's arms up in the air like a little child.

The final golem cdame through, and was not attacked, sicne even Angels and Demons learn when not to do something stupid. This golem began to look not for a person, by for the flow of Ki. It found a trail, and began to follow it, again not letting anything get in it's way.

(OOC2: For those who don't feel like autokilling my golems, they do have a weakness, and it's to do with the runes carved on them. That way, at least once I can have a golem go down in the only way they are supposed to go down.)

[Kanzaki Hayate]

Hayate was flying when he heard large footsteps nearby.

"Hmmm? A golem?"

He flew higher to avoid it still continuing his flight, he would not be distracted by a golem that was following someone's orders. He was soon annoyed after hearing the footsteps for a while. He disappeared suddenly and reappeared again. He soon twitched his hand and then flew off at faster speed. The golem that had been chasing him had fallen appart into forty-five differently sliced pieces.

(OOC: Ryu Moui Issen again. Tash should post next!)

[Tashy]

Tash saw the blood that poured from Kasumi's neck, and her eyes narrowed dangerously. Rage and grief began to course through her. How dare they hurt her friend...how DARE they spill her blood! Her glasess flashed in the light before her speed increased AGAIN. She was fast...very fast. Her legs were carrying her quicker and quicker towards Kasumi, her staff held infront of her. Ever since meeting Kasumi, Tash had realized that she was a kindred spirit, someone nearly her age who understood her. In fact, Kasumi was the ONLY one Tash's age that she knew. This only strengthened her resolve. If Tash could snarl, she would have as she charged straight towards Lilith and Kasumi, nearly there, not even 9 meters from them...

She would save Kasumi, even if it killed her.

((OOC: Kanzaki-san...you really shouldn't have blown Haoxian off like that, now she has nothing to do....you have golems after you, AND there is a giant snake running around...I daresay there is more pressing matters to attend to...Also, sorry for the bad and short post.))

((OOCx2: Kasumi next, please...))

[Kasumi Hitarashi]

"My...she's a powerful creature. Well, story time's over sister shall we?"

Lilith released Kasumi and in that instant Kasumi turned back into a succubus. No trace of blood, no little girl. Kasumi sprouted her bat like wings and her hair was a vibrant purple.

"Activate the circle."


Kasumi looked at Tash, a purely bemused look on her face at how foolish the girl was.

"Sorry to disappoint you dear, but story time is over."

The ground around them erupted as Tash, Lilith, and Kasumi were encased within the magical pillar of light that reached towards the sky overhead. As soon as the pillar was created, 6 elite dragonknights spawned, Onyxia's finest warriors. They were to keep anyone from interfering with the ritual. Kasumi teleported directly behind Tash, floating softly in the air as she whispered into Tash's ear.

"So...this is what betrayal feels like. Lovely feeling isn't it my dear?"

In unison with Lilith, she began chanting in a strange dragon like tongue.

Keeper of Souls and Spirits, twins sisters Morrigan and Lilith release the ancient bindings of Onyxia. Release the fire that burns within her in service of Onyxia the Dragonflight!

Lilith and Kasumi were entranced as they channeled the releasing of Tash's mana. The girl was amazingly powerful and even with their combined strength, it was not guranteed that Tash would succumb.

(OOC: The next post is a free post. Anyone may post.)

[Kanzaki Hayate]

Hayate was flying foward as he noticed something was wrong. He stopped to be repelled by a powerful barrier.

"Damn I didn't make it."

He looked to see who was inside.

"That girl...oh no..."

He was still in the air trying to figure out what to do. His own magical attacks had little chance of breaking a barrier of this strength. Even his own Breakers would only dent temporarly.

Dammit. I knew this would happen.

(OOC: Leave Hayate a tad open for anyone who wishes to try and strike at him when he's stuck in thought. Still free for anyone to post.)
