"The battle between dwma and arachnophobia ended in the destruction of a lot of stuff." Asura says

"This couch is soooo comfy." Theta sighs "makes me wish I had a couch...."

@kishin asura
"For some reason..I feel...connected. Strange..." Delta says, looking around. Maka thinks. "..Perhaps it has something to do with you being medusa at a base?" She asks.

"You can have this one. Or if you want, you can live here..you both can. Grubs in the fridge, oil is in the cupboard." Gunner says, sitting down at a table and smoking a cigar.
Kilroy falls asleep on his feet, saying one word. "..Recharging."

As stine found himself within a stasis bubble, unable to do..anything, soon, some cracks begin to form on the bubble.

"Ha, this thing is making my blood BUBBLE and boil!" Pun Master says, striking the bubble..before an energy weapon shot is let out, but Pun master slides to the right of the shot. "...That was a crack shot, but I should bring to light at how such attacks fizzle out against me." He says, causing the rifle of the sergal who attempted to shoot him, to explode, not hurting the sergal in the slightest...just annoy them, most likely.

@supertinyking

"That might be." Asura says "I'm not even from this universe and I still feel at home here......well, as at home as one can get in a city that housed an academy that trained kids to fight monsters and witches."

"I might just do that." Theta says "..... would I be able to bring my pet rats?"

@Teoinsanity
((By agreement of me and Tyki the plot point with Stein attacking the Sergals has been erased))

Stein was, of course, untraceable. It was something he worked quite hard at, his skill matched only by those who killed professionally. He slipped in and out of realities, leaving not even the slightest trace. He used no conventional magic, divine, innate or mana-based. He left no physical trace, besides the ruins of those who would oppose him. His location at any time was nearly impossible to discern even through use of divining magic. He utilized multiple copies stationed around the Multiverse, each equipped with a hero-catching trap. Any who had searched for Stein knew well that he was not an easy man to catch.

The Tetris came to a halt inside Stein's lab, crashing through one of the walls as it did so. Bottles of mysterious substances crashed onto the floor, many of them fizzling, some of them catching fire. Several rather noxious gasses filled the air, and although none of them were lethal, they worsened the already unpleasant aroma of blood and fear.

Stein raised an eyebrow an eyebrow and straightened himself, turning away from the squirming figure on his table. As Teo stepped out, asking for sugar, Stein simply kicked his kneecaps. With a loud crack, bone and metal shattered as Teo's right leg collapsed beneath him dropping him to the floor.

"Let's see. Cybernetic enhancements, a cocky attitude, and a ship that somehow managed to both track me down, and penetrate my lab's shielding. Furthermore, you seem to have a rather powerful Soul to you boy. How quaint." Brown bursts from the Tetris, realizing the danger his ally is in, a raging flurry of steel plated claws. Stein simply catches his arm, before flipping the massive bear to the ground, the impact resounding like dull thunder. "You're a hero, no doubt. A new one, or you would have known better than to come to my lab. Nobody knows you're here, nobody's coming to save you. Your ship could get you out of here, but you have no chance of defeating me in my home territory."

Seeing the fear that suddenly struck Teo's Soul, Stein crouched down beside him, smiling, as he slowly retrieved a cigarette from the pocket of his stitched together lab coat. "So, boy. What are you going to do now?"

Teo twitched on the floor, but his shock was not from Stein's words. It was not from the fact that Brown had been so surprisingly ineffective, nor from the fact that he had been so rapidly taken down. For his leg had not bended, and no comical bump had formed. His powers should have absorbed that much damage with ease, and yet here he was. He could feel it seeping into his skin, into his mind, into the very essence of his being. A weight that held down his arms, that drove him down no matter how he fought it. Here, his powers meant nothing, his manipulation of reality negated in it's entirety.

This was The Lab, where no arcane powers functioned. No mana streamed through the air of this reality. No innate powers were permitted in this dark realm. No reality-warping capabilities could be utilized within it's borders. The only power any could wield was the Soular Art that Stein had so perfected. The only weapon that Teo had access to was his hammer, still powered by his soul, it's destructive power the only thing standing between him and absolute annihilation.

"Don't bother answering. There will be time for talking soon enough. I prefer my conversations to be more.... screamy."

"Now now, there's no need for hostilities" Alucard smiles, revealing rows of pointed teeth. He steps forward casually, and yet Mithias can tell that he was ready to fight at any moment. There would be no surprise attacks. "I come bearing gifts. I'm here to free you from a yoke you don't even know you're wearing. Furthermore, I believe you're associated with an old friend of mine."

"Kaminari Tottori"

There was a flash, burst of light and the roll of thunder. And Mithias found Alucard standing right in front of him, grinnign teeth inches from his face, those red eyes locking with his. Suddenly, impossibly, Alucard had moved at the speed of light. This was the first thing that Mithias realized. The second was the fact that Alucard's fist was now driving into his stomach. An immense force, focused into a single strike, Mithias' entire body hardening itself in preperation to resist the attack.

Mithais was launched backwards explosively, tearing through trees and rocks, the swiftly dying forest shattering around him, before he finally came to an explosive halt, making a crater of his very own. Hurricane winds tore through the air, the ground having crumbled beneath the demon's feet. Had Mithias been a weaker being, the punch would have completely destroyed him, crushing his form into nothing more than a pulp. As it was, the holes soon closed themselves, his form as close to immortal as one could get.

"Let me show you something more beautiful than beauty itself, and more sturdy than the universe. Allow me to show you the power of one who lives free of the bonds of morality. Allow me to show you what you could become."

@kishin asura
As they looked around, Delta sighs. "....I'm..just a copy. Made to stop a madman......now..I'm not even able to do that. I'm worthless..." She says, looking down, clenching her fists. Then, a spell covers the ground, a large circle, as scorpion stingers erupt from the ground, and Delta dodges them via Vector pads. Shaula appears from the shadows, laughing. "Hehehe. You may be a copy...but a strong one. My feeble sister would of died just then." She says, and Delta's main reply is gunning Shaula down, unceremoniously, with a large hail of vector arrows, tearing her to shreds.
"And if you were smart, you'd of expected that kind of response." Delta says, still not overly happy.

"Sure. I'll get a tube system set up so they can move around easily." Gunner says, stretching, putting his arm around Theta's shoulders. "..........." He stays silent, but his eyes dart around sporadically, as if trying to find something, or to make it hard to tell what he is looking at.

@supertinyking

"it's not something to be proud of son. all you did was beat a woman up and made her feel bad. that's no way to get back at her just cause she was mean. take the high general for instance; he was born to a ma that didn't think he was worth the calluses on her paws. look at him now. didn't touch her, didn't bad mouth her, just made her eat her words." the captain says evenly, adding the last part with a chuckle as the high general pops in, saying evenly "telling stories about me to the new kids again arty?". "course. not like having a male high general is all that common of an occurence. you're a right succ-" the old captain says evenly, getting cut off by kalus that seems to be rather tired at the moment "not now arty... just came here to drop off the rifle..." before doing just that and leaving without another word.

"well. i ought to head to the racks before they run out of wine, and you've got some paperwork to fill out for that new pistol of yours" the captain replies evenly, leaving tide with the realization of paperwork

A yawn sounds from the back of the office. Eclipse is just walking up in a chair, leaning back with his feet up, wings sprawled out behind him. "Oh... Hello. You're back. Did you still need my help?"

@supertinyking

"You're not worthless." Asura says

Theta follows his gaze

"Now now, there's no need for hostilities" Alucard smiles, revealing rows of pointed teeth. He steps forward casually, and yet Mithias can tell that he was ready to fight at any moment. There would be no surprise attacks. "I come bearing gifts. I'm here to free you from a yoke you don't even know you're wearing. Furthermore, I believe you're associated with an old friend of mine."

Flying from Alucard's punch, Mithias' body tore a swath of open dirt and broken vegetation backwards until he smashed into a large boulder, shattering it into a crater. Blood and cells and bits of his broken armor mysteriously pulled itself together, quickly repairing the damage and bringing the vampire back to awareness. He blinked his yellow eyes at the demonic being as he pulled himself up out of the rocky rubble. Mithias sighed heavily and frowned. It made sense now why this putrid being had sought him out.

"'No need for hostilities' huh? That doesn't seem to be what you came here for. That hurt." This Alucard was certainly not to be trusted. "If you were a friend of Kami's, then I am sorry, but you're not going to get your revenge. I only killed him because there was no other way. You should leave now, or I'm going to have to fight you. I'm not interested in becoming anything, especially if it's like you or how Kami was." Mithias readied himself to react more quickly this time.

@kishin asura
"..You don't know me. You don't know my story...how can you judge my worth?" Delta asks, before a small sand storm forms, and after, she vanishes. Maka sighs. ".........." She just heads into her home, a sad look on her face. She sits into her normal chair, and reads the book she had started before leaving.

It seems to range from seemingly random points on the wall, to looking over Kilroy, and then looking over Theta. ".........." He pulls a firearm, it appearing out of his sleeve, and fires into a wall, a thump being heard on the other side of it. "..Gotcha." Gunner chuckles, as the gun vanishes up his sleeve. "Bloody insects. Here a beetle is the size of a football..." He says, as he heads outside, and returns with an extremely large ant, which had a bullet hole in its skull. "...Found us dinner." Gunner says, taking the kill into the kitchen, and after washing it, fries it in a rather large deep fryer.

Alucard laughs, as he walks forward, once more in combat-ready position. "I do not know this Kami fellow you speak of. Mayhap I ate him, and do not recall. It doesn't matter." Casually, he rips off his left arm with his right, bright red blood spraying the dirt. He then drops the bloodied black limb to the ground, where it begins to bubble and shift, black tendrils digging into the soil, further searching the Earth for any energy to devour. Already, it grew and spread under the ground, a strange silence falling over the natural rustle of tiny insects through the Earth. "You truly do not know me, do you? It doesn't matter." The blood flowing from his stump turns black, soon twisting and gathering to reform his arm.

"Tell me, have you ever wondered what happens when you let go? Of all those limits restricting your movement? Of the chains of compassion, of measurement, of sanity?" Flames dance around Alucard's feet, seeming to swirl about him unnaturally, bound to no fuel. A wave of writhing flames shoots over him, a blazing cyclone surrounding him until nothing but a dark silhouette can be seen. Twin pinpricks of red light glare out from the centre of the inferno. "I'm not here to kill you, Mithias. I'm here to show you another way."

The flames gather above Alucard's upturned palm, into a single point of white light. A miniature star, waves of heat setting the dried remains of the forest ablaze. Even from this distance, Mithias knew that any normal being would have been burnt to a crisp. Even his body would sustain some damage should that flame strike him. And even now it was growing hotter, feeding off of Alucard's power.

"This day, you will kill me. And you will join me."

He then hurls the tiny orb, which rapidly expands into a wall of blazing fire, attempting to engulf and completely destroy Mithias.

@Wraithblade6

the high general kalus finally returns to his office to handle eclipse whom had most likely fallen back in his chair shortly after kalus had returned. "ah, you've woken from your coma. you were out for a few days. you're to assist in the invoices, organization of files, and generally whatever else carl tells you to do" kalus says evenly, typing away at his terminal which transmits the same blue energy to the downed angel before rolling over to a wall of filing cabinets and returning with a white uniform sans apron which was rather reminiscent of a suit. "you're to report to the third floor today, you're already behind." kalus says evenly, shooing eclipse away so he can return to his work

@Tyki
Tide does the paper work..and his handwriting is absolutely horrible. Barely legible, terrible. But he does get it done..before mysteriously vanishing from the work place, not a single person seeing where he got off to. The only things left are the tracking bracelet, and the ring..with the finger it was on attached.

@Tyki
Eclipse takes his uniform and in a flash, magically has it on. "Very well then. In the name of her mercy and glory, I will help your people recover from destruction!" Striking a heroic pose, he walks out. ... He pokes his head back in. "Erm, excuse me, but where is the elevator?"

@supertinyking

tide finds the paperwork to actually be digital and to be done on the holo-interface on his braclet which doesn't take too long or require good hand writing at all, though his escape is rather difficult since the door to his room doesn't actually open without his bracelet, the weight of it preventing him from leaving.

@wraithblade6

"the stairs are too the left" kalus says evenly, pointing towards stairs which were spaced rather far apart, obviously built for sergals but not for humans, or angels in this case, before turning in on a cot at the corner of his office, locking the door after eclipse leaves.

Though the treck up the stairs is arduous and long, eclipse does manage to make it up to the appointed floor by morning... when he'd started after night had just begun... only to find the room that was assigned to him to be taken up by a rather large male sergal that had seemed to fall asleep while waiting for him, literally barring the door to his bed since he'd passed out on his feet.

@Tyki
He still vanishes......

@supertinyking

kalus ends up waking to the news of tide's disappearence before ordering a search using the ships equipped with strong enough scanners orbiting most planets known to the sergals, all of which the ones that were either colonized or planning to be colonized due to the ability to sustain life which spanned over a few different dimensions as well as the home dimension of the sergals, resulting in a rather quick result if he was on any of the planets

@Tyki
They do find him, left on a desert planet. When they arrive, they see his throat was slashed, killing him..it appears that due to how recent the wound is, their search alerted the killer, and lead to them killing tide. It looks to be he was tortured before death, his nails, teeth, and eyes pulled out. A grizzly scene, to say the least. Whoever killed him masterfully covered their tracks, no trace being found.

@supertinyking

Asura sits down and looks at maka "....so....."

"Nice." She remarks
