Thoughts raced as Fait found himself flying back to the place that started all this. When he was younger, he had wanted to grow stronger, no matter the cost. However, because of which, he had lost the person closest to him. Now, he only wanted to seal it away. He couldn't simply forget abotu all his powers...he may need them at some point. However, if there was a way to seal them off, that may work better. The gentle beat of his midnight black wings didn't prove to calm him. His face was blank as he looked over the village below his feet, turning upright and hovering in the air for a moment. Did he really want to do this? With a slight roll of his shoulders, the answer snapped back to him. His sword was gone...as was the being inside of it. Looking down, he realized the slight change in his figure. He still bore countless scars up and down both arms, blisters on his hands, not to mention a burn mark in his right palm, and a perfect square cut in his left hand, where his zodiac stone was. Shaking his head lightly, he let himself slowly down onto the ground once more, his wings fading out as he did so. His bare hand still bore the same black ring he had recieved on his last visit. Looking around, he didn't see Sora anywhere within his range...which was quite far. Maybe she was in one of the buildings? Shrugging slightly, he picked his head up and put on a fake smile, his face lighting up slightly. "Hey Sora, you here?" |

Sora yawned sleepily unaware that just outside someone was calling her name. She had been in her room all the while; it was a sleepy day, and she decided to let the children off on their own today. She was tired, the result of all he week's worth of duties, and dearly wanted to rest though she found it impossible. She knew her body dearly wanted sleep, but it just didn't give it to her. It was then that with a sort of resignation that she raised her voice to address the person just outside her door. "What is it Maya...?" She asked wearily, as the guardian opened the sliding door and positioned himself just under him. "It better be important...I need rest..." Maya just smiled. He himself was showing signs of wear, running the village's protection was a trying task. "You have a visitor," he remarked ever so mysteriously with his knowing smile. The young blue haired guardian raised her eyebrow in question. "A visitor...?" She asked. "Aye...gave my men a shock he did...imagine something with ebony dark wings flying overhead moving quickly to the village...though, I swear...with a such a close proximity to the school they should've expected it..." Sora sighed, trying to recall anyone with that description, though as it was wings weren't a good way to figure someone out when that someone came from AHS, so without further ado she stalked off to see who it was... Coming closer of course jogged her memory, and she recognized Fait at once. It wasn't everyday a sealing ring was given out of course, but strength was what he wanted and a sealing item was one of the best ways to boost power. Something felt amiss though, as she slowly interlaced her eyes behind her, and spoke. "I see you're back...did your power increase?" She asked softly, as she leant near to his face crystalline blue eyes locking with his. She blinked a little tiredly. "You know," she added softly. "If you wanted to fake a smile...you best learn to control your eyes...they're what gives you away..." She said this thoughtfully. As though it was wasn't of any real value, just something that she noted. It was as if she was saying what color his clothes were today... |

Fait's smile picked up lightly when he saw Sora, but faded when she noted that it was fake. Mentally, he gave a weak smirk. For someone who hadn't even displayed any emotion for a little over six months, at least he had tried. However, that only brought back thoughts that he would have to get back into feeling more, and shed the dark shadow of a life he had since cast himself into. Taking in a deep breath, he mulled her question over in his head. Had he gotten stronger? Yes...in spades...but at what cost? Shaking his head, he rubbed the bridge of his nose for a moment before putting on a small, weak, but genuine smile. His black eyes stayed hollow, however, no lightning tearing them apart. "Yes, I have gotten stronger since we had last talked...Much more than expected. You'd be surprised to know that I can weild more than just lightning now." His small smirk took over the smile as he crossed his arms over his chest. Having the power of his dead friend's amulet inside him was a good thing...but yet dangerous at the same time. "However...I've come back to ask your assistance again. Certain...things have happened that I can't help...But these are things that I wouldn't like to happen again." Closing his eyes, he took another deep breath. Thoughts raced for a moment as he thought of all the bad that had happened in the past few months. Opening his eyes once more, a somber smile overtook his face as he looked at her. "I'd be very grateful if you could supply me with another sealing item. I'm hoping to seal this part of me away...for good. So, in essence, if you can help me out today, I won't need to be disturbing you, or your sleep, again...Unless you want me to hang around and play with the children, of course." His last statement, shown by the smirk on his face, was more a joke than anything. However, he always did admire how skilled the kids around here were. Maybe they knew things that even he didn't? |

Sora listened, and considered. It intrigued her. Seal something away completely? It was possible of course, but dangerous. No, not in the process, but in the fact that it was more or less running away. "One doesn't go about jumping in water only knee deep..." She murmured. "What exactly are we dealing with here?" She pursed her lips, her face staring distractedly into air as he started muttering to herself, as if in argument though it was below earshot. Absentmindedly she played with her blue locks. "I'll have to know first before an action can be decided upon..." ooc: Crappy post, but, eh... |

((Sorry for the late reply Mark...It's been a rough week...)) Knee Deep? He only wished. He was in far beyond that...over his head wouldn't even begin to describe. He knew he was running away. He had delved far too deep into his own powers, and had busted open a wall that should have been kept shut. He was lucky that Deram had kept it shut off as long as he did...lord only knows he would have hurt several people if it wasn't there. "What are we dealing with...?" Fait let out a small sigh as he looked around. Did he dare endanger anyone here, in the village? With a deep breath, followed by a small gulp, he toyed with the ring around his middle finger, but never took it off. Looking to Sora, there was obvious worry in his black eyes. "Is there somewhere...a bit more safe than here...to display destructive powers?" |

"Is there somewhere...a bit more safe than here...to display destructive powers?" "Well," She pursed her lips. "I think Kokoro is around here somewhere..." Absentmindedly she started wandering off beckoning for him to follow without as much of an explanation as to who Kokoro was or why exactly she was looking for her. Inside her head thoughts swiveled, and swirled everywhere. She was wondering what this destructive power was exactly, as well as the look of worry on Fait's face. Elsewhere too, on a more subconcious thought, she began following the power signatures of two individuals she was very familiar with, although she still found it a surprise to still sense that of Akai's. She already knew they were there before she had made the turn around the corner of one of the few houses near the edge. On a nearby tree sat the siblings, both twins and nearly identical in features. One, the female was swinging her legs on a nearby branch looking down where lounged her brother, as she chatted animately. Her brother on the other hand was answering once in a while though his eyes were on the sky, as he peered at it through a small ring of light, a halo, he held on his hands. "Kokoro! There you are! Come down here we need your help!" She called, and surprised the raven-haired female jumped, and ended up landing on the ground head first. Sora sweatdropped walking over, and tapping Kokoro with the edge of her feet. "You alright...?" "She'll be fine," Akai said lazily. "You forget how hard her head is..." With that the young boy went silent again, still daydreaming and listlessly staring at the sky above. |

((Umm...>_> I'll just assume I'm not supposed to have any idea what's going on..)) Fait had followed behind Sora silently, his arms folding over his chest and his mind racing. He had absolutely no idea who Kokoro was, but nevertheless, he was still a patient person. Turning the corner at one of the houses, he quickly spotted the twins. The one at the base of the tree, Akai, had seemed to catch his attention more. The halo he held was an interesting thing to see in itself. Kokoro, who he soon found to be the girl, put on an interesting show. Her fall would have been slightly amusing, had he been here on friendlier terms. However, he was here, hopefully, to get something to hold back his power. His mind raced to the night in the forest, where a frustrated punch to the ground had sent off a wave of power that had caused nearly a dozen trees to explode. He shuddered at the thought and pinched the bridge of his nose for a moment before letting his arm fall back down to his chest. He was not adressed, so he figured it best to stay quiet. He always was the observer, anyway... ((Short...*shrugs* Meh...Didn't have a whole lot to go off >_>)) |

As Kokoro came to Sora knelt beside her, and started to explain Con's predicament. "So we need a place where we can unleas mass destruction, and such...and no, not the school as tempting as it may be..." Kokoro nodded, and became more serious, as she stood, and started to stretch. "I know just the place...odd dimension really...the inhabitants are always resurrected, and they seem to take joy in killing each other and seeing who can cause the most damage...they'll just love him I think..." Sora nodded. "That'd be great...could you take us there?" "Sure...just let me set up..." Closing her eyes, Kokoro conjured flames from thin air letting it flourish, and encircle her. Slowly it rested on her arms, hardening and forming a sword with a bright shimmer of light. "Stand back..." With a deft slash she created a hole in space the end forming into an odd land of nothing but jagged rock. "There...hop in..." She replied, and to their surprise Akai came forward smiling ferally, his fangs showing, and the bright halo floating on his head. "I'm coming too..." he explained. "I want to see this power..." Sora looked at Con expectantly. "Coming?" |

((Seeing as it's a common mistake, I'll try to clear it up. My character's name is Fait. My nickname (one of 'em) is Con. That's why it was changed...Hopefully that clears things up a bit.)) Fait felt himself wincing slightly as the words "mass destruction" came from Sora. It was bad enough that he even had this power, and it scared him to no end. That was why he wanted to seal it off...and they all wanted to see it? Gulping, he looked down to the ring on his hand. He knew that, the second he took it off, bad things would happen. Shohito had even told him to leave the school until he had gained control once more, but he wanted to seal it away first. His powers, at the moment, were barely being held back, by a thin black band. Highly unstable was the perfect word to describe him...since, as he had said to Shohito...He didn't even know what he was capable of anymore. Kokoro's display proved rather interesting, as he found his eyes widen slightly. The only other two people he knew who could make rifts like that were Leon and Lucian, and that was never even into another dimension. Fait smiled lightly as he looked at it, and then at everyone around. It seemed they were all going. Hopefully, he wouldn't put any of them in danger. At Sora's question, he took a deep breath and nodded slowly. Without hesitation, he stepped through the portal. |

ooc: Sorry about that...I was braindead when I wrote it...and sorry too for the lack of posting... n_n;; College... The land was dark, and jagged. There were no greenery in sight. Quite literally the land was dead. A forgotten wastelend tucked in some planet somewhere in the infinite expanse of galaxies and dimensions. Lazily Akai sat on the rocks, right arm placed on his raised knee. Beside him was Kokoro who had her hands interlocked on her back, as she absent-mindedly kicking away pebbles. "Ready when you are..." Kokoro finally said giving him her assent to commence. |

((OOC: it's alright. Like they say: "Real Life First", Eh? But on a side note...I never expected this topic to drag out like this >_>)) The dark land around them seemed to work well for the task at hand. At least he wouldn't be destroying things again. In addition to that, it resembled the night in which he had broken his sword, and attained his newfound powers. His eyes went down to the ring on his finger for a moment. He could remember two significant power leaps recently. The first, when he was fighting with Shohito, and the essence of power in his amulet fused with his body. Even then though, he still had his ring on, sealing away at least half of his power. Turning to the side, he made sure he was far enough away from both Akai and Kokoro that they wouldn't be harmed. His arms stayed straight, but his elbows bent, holding his clenched fists out, parallel with his waist. Any other time, it would be a matter of actually forcing the power out. Now, it had become the greater ordeal of trying to keep it back. Taking a deep breath, he let go of himself, and relaxed. He could feel the surge of power course through his viens, and into his palms. His hair got gradually darker, shifting from a whitish hue to a darker gray. Even his skin became a different color, taking on a more bluish tint than normal. His eyes sparked red as a small shockwave coursed through the air around him, forcing any loose debris away. Small bolts of jet black and blue lightning cracked around the air near him. With a small sigh, followed by the clenching of teeth, he looked down at his ring again. Hopefully...this wouldn't hurt as much as last time. Reaching over, he quickly slipped off his ring and held it in his clenched fist. His body seized up for a moment, going almost completely rigid before even more power started to pour out of him. It was beyond his control, that much he knew. Even Shohito had suggested he leave until he master it. His hair had gone jet black with the surge, and his eyes even darker. Anything that his sword had once tried to hold back was now let loose, and a massive black bolt of lightning left one of his hands, without him even trying. Hitting the ground, it exploded outwards along the ground, forcing up the dirt around it for another twenty feet before it erupted out of the ground, streaking out in a massive wave until it finally dispersed. Eyes wide, he slipped the ring back on quickly, to power he could control, and let his head sag down. Rather hesitant, he looked over at Kokoro and Akai. "And that was without me even trying to do anything...believe it or not..." ((Bit crappy...meh *shrugs* Like I said, I figured I'd be in and out of this topic. *had other plans...*)) |

Akai licked his lips softly. "It's been a while since I've seen power like that..." He said plainly. "I don't think it's a match to something like what Korokushin used to pull, but I see what you mean..." His eyes gleamed brightly. He knew the power was unstable and a danger to everyone, even Fait, but he had seen a lot in life, and more in the afterlife to actually be shaken. Sora though looked thoughtful, what sleepiness gone from her. "I see why you want to seal it away," she said. She looked to Kokoro, and Akai, and saw that they too had the same thing in mind. "We cannot grant that though," she continued apologetically. "It won't do any good to supress the power...what will happen when the seals are accidentally removed? Imagine all that power welled in unleashing itself in one go..." She sighed. "As it is...just shoving the power aside might prove more of a risk than anything..." |

Fait shook his head slowly. He knew he would have to come to terms with this power soon enough, he always did. Pushing himself to the most extreme limits of his power was common practice for him, just to know that he had all that power fully under his control. Now, however, his limits were pushed out further. He would find it again; he had to. But even so...Would they understand the methods of his madness? Scratching the back of his head, he put his walls back up, and returned to his most normal state, no power flying around him. Turning to look at the three of them, a small, sad smile played out on his face. "Please...Don't think of it as "Shoving it Aside". Like I've done in the past, I'll come to terms with it. However, I just want to do it a little at a time, for fear of hurting someone." Pausing for a moment, he looked down and kicked a pebble that was littering the barren earth he stood upon. "If anything else...I just wanted to be...Normal, again. Not having to rely on my powers to do things. I'd figured...if they were held back, I'd be able to have that again. But, in short; I do plan to gain control over these new powers of mine. That's one reason why I'm leaving the school, Via Shohito's suggestion. To gain control. I just figured the ring would help me be more "human" when I wanted to be...and not always the fighter I've become..." ((Yeah, not sure if that came out how I wanted >_>. But yeah, His whole reason for "leavin' the school" was to gain control, as well as some other things (Not gettin' into it...) *shrugs* But hey, your village, eh?)) |

ooc: Sorry... n_n;; I'm alive~just blech... "Please...Don't think of it as "Shoving it Aside". Like I've done in the past, I'll come to terms with it. However, I just want to do it a little at a time, for fear of hurting someone. If anything else...I just wanted to be...Normal, again. Not having to rely on my powers to do things.

That's one reason why I'm leaving the school, Via Shohito's suggestion. To gain control. I just figured the ring would help me be more "human" when I wanted to be...and not always the fighter I've become..." "We know what you intend," Akai said softly. "But remember why the ring was gave to you? As things go...the more you seal your power the more it strengthens. It will reach the point where the current set of seals won't be enough and what then? Will you come back for more till the power is uncontrollable? As it is we don't know the rate of increase and the rate of control you'll gain, and thus we can't help you with the seals...it'd be too much of a risk..." "Besides," Sora added. "Humanity is what you make of yourself...not in any physical condition." She sighed. "It'd be easier if we're all the same wouldn't it? If we were all "normal" but we're not and that's life...that's life..." "Tell me...where do you intend to go anyway?" Akai asked with his probing gaze. |

((ooc: *shrugs* it's all good...just as long as we get it done. *nods* no pressure XP)) "Tell me...where do you intend to go anyway?" The whole speech he had gotten from Akai just a few moments prior to that statement, while true, was slightly hurtful. Did they really think he was that out of control with his powers? Surely they had no idea what was going on. No one did. However, Akai's comment threw into sharp effect one very important thing...He had absolutely no idea where he was going to go. A small laugh forced his body to shake for a moment as he shook his head. With another sad smile, he turned to look back up at Akai once more. "Not sure, really...Where ever the winds take me..." His hand went up to pinch the bridge of his nose, the other arm crossing over his chest. His ear twitched quickly as the distorted, low sound of marching floated through his ears again. Sure enough, it was followed by a powerful shriek, and a clash of blades. It was a last ditch effort...But it may work. Hell, it may even buy him some time. Letting go of his nose, his hands fell back to his sides. His jet black eyes bounced back and forth between the three of them in unseen motions before settling on Akai. He seemed to be most interested at this point. "Look. I know this may sound crazy...But something's after me, and I don't know what. I don't know much about it, even...but it haunts me where ever I go. One thing's for certain, however. I'm not bringing it here. It's locked onto my energy, and I can't surpress my power enough to shake it. What makes things worse, I know I can't take it out in my current form." Taking a deep breath, he let all that sink in before opening his mouth again. "I know it's a risk...But I may even need the extra power boost to help defeat this thing. I know it won't stop until one of us is dead...and I don't feel like going anytime soon." Done with his pleading, Fait took in another deep breath and traded glances between the people there. Maybe they'd understand, maybe they wouldn't...But what happened with them today could make or break him. Gulping, he looked at the ground once more. "But it's your call...." |

"Hmm..." Akai considered this. He looked over to Sora, and Kokoro seeing them in contemplation as well. "And you mention this just now...why?" Akai said, but didn't stop then. "But no matter..." Slowly he unclasped the golden necklace he wore around his neck, a ring on his finger, and the earring he had on his left ear. Tossing these about in one hand he started to absentmindedly talk. "Here..." he said as he gazed at the three. "These seals are stronger than the normal one Maya makes...I think this would do nicely...I don't need it as much anymore..." He tossed it to Fait, as Sora and Kokoro just stood in silence watching things transpire. "I'm taking a risk in making this decision...I don't want to be blamed for adding to the afterlife's population...I'm already a handful or so they tell me...you better make sure I've made the right choice or I swear I will hunt you down in this life or the next...understand?" |

((late reply...my bad...Freakin' Vacation..Ohh, and this will be short, since I've got limited time..)) Fait stood slightly dumbfounded as the three items landed in his open palm. He tossed them up into the air a few inches before catching them again, gazing over his new jewelry with a bit of interest. He slipped the other ring on after depositing the necklace and Earring in his pocket, and instantly felt his power die down, as if he were never even a meta before. His hair turned brown and fell limp over his eyes, grazing his cheeks. His black eyes turned a vibrant green just as quickly, and the bluish tint that normally graced his skin was replaced with a slight tan. Smirking lightly to himself, he looked up and bowed gracefully to Akai before standing up and looking at him again, his whole body language, as well as tone, expressing that he knew the severity of the situation. "Thank you, Sir. Believe me, I'll do all in my power...Or rather, what's left of it, to make sure I don't disapoint your decision." The only reason he had adressed him as "Sir" was because he had no idea what his name was. He didn't know Kokoro's either, for that matter. Nevertheless, he clapped his hands together and looked them all over. "Well...If you don't mind...I should be leaving. I don't wish to bring...whatever it is..any closer than I have to." Pausing for a moment, he looked around. "So, how do we get out of here, anyways?" |
