His breathing has become ragged, he knows that his life is fading, but still he keeps his eyes open. Those around him are unnerved, but they can sense it too. They can feel his energy fluctuation. In the low moments the kick and beat him, trying to bring him further down, but every time a small surge goes through his body as his mind and heart rebel against the idea of such pathetic weaklings thinking they could even make him feel pain. Though, he does feel pain, loads of it, but they wouldn't know looking at him, and he likes it that way. He will not give in. He will not give up. And all these little mites around him will wither and blow away on the breeze before they are given the satisfaction of seeing the mighty Master Seishu flinch.

They have been gathered, the greatest of the Dread Slayers under his command. No others would do. [i]'He will not slip between our fingers again. I won't let him. He will fall, by my hand, as it was meant to be. . .'[/i] His fingers run over the handle of the blade at his side as he looks to the gathered minions, the pulse of power from his marking seeming t feed the pulse inside the blade itself. [i]'The will be the day it ends, I swear to it. . .'[/i] Moving through the group he glares around, his steely eyes letting each of them know what's waiting for them should they fail, then with one final hiss he takes off, ripping open the realms and creating a portal to the human realm. There's only one reason for both seconds to be on earth, and that's if their masters are there as well. . . .

It's today, she can feel it. [i]'The creature is so close to falling'[/i] she thinks wickedly, smiling in a sickeningly peaceful way as she slips into the medical ward unseen. Grabbing a tray of carefully prepared syringes she tucks them away under her cloak, not bothering to “come back from break” and instead heading right back for the exit point. She's far too excited to see this evil beast leave the world to bother with her daily dues, and instead allows the twisted peace guide her to hasten Seishu's destruction. Humming softly to herself she leaves her home realm and with ease makes her way into the establishment nearby that houses the monster, not noticing her portal stying open far longer than it should have.

Sitting quietly as he watches the shocking reunion Kaila begins formulating a plan. Clearing his throat once there's a moment's peace he speaks softly, but with clear intent. “Humans have begun being able to see us, and I get the feeling that even at our most careful the people in here would notice our presence. Not to mention Jentou and I sport enough negative energy to bring this place to a screeching halt, and I am unwilling to lower it this close to where Master Seishu is being held.” Jentou lets out a small coo, shifting a little closer to his brother protectively as he notes the tenseness in Kaila's voice. Harper nods in agreement and motions for Kaila to go on. With an nod he looks at the front door to the establishment.

“I think Sir Harper and Rue, along with you two in the back,” he points at Rasha and Crios, “should go in and find out how to get to lower levels and should open a portal for us once you have a clear place to do so.” He eyes the creatures on the sign, recognizing the kind of place this is from any a child's nightmare. “This place seems to have animal and non human humanoid creatures wandering around in there, and since you are all exuding positive energy you'll fit right in. You should have very little trouble. . .” His eyes go back to the group, the orbs glowing fiery violet as he looks around at them all, adding a half bow to Enasi as he adds, “That is my opinion at least, and I request you make your decision quickly as we can feel Master Seishu's energy. . . .” he leaves his sentence unfinished, unable to bring himself to say that his master is getting weaker by the minute.
