[i]“Why would you want to destroy the incubators?” Cheese turned another page and continued to read about the Witches Barriers. “They provide a service for a cost and it’s all laid out fairly so it’s not as if they’re doing anything wrong. There’s not really any reason why we should stop them.”[/i]

""Destroy them"...?" the Nobody cocked an eyebrow, "...you misunderstand me. I said we should [i]eliminate[/i] them. Drive them off? Remove them from the equation? Of course we can't [i]kill[/i] them all..." his innocent grin never faltered, but he did offer the fairy a wink, "...that would just be [i]silly[/i]. And very, very evil. I'm guessing the boss over there wouldn't want us to go sinking to Leo's level just to complete a mission." interesting thing for him to say, considering that little stunt he pulled against Nate and Nora back in France.

"Maybe I misheard the briefing, but these Incubator people [i]are[/i] manipulating innocent girls into accepting powers they do not grasp or understand and then allowing them to suffer what sounds like a fate worse then death... right?" Seth asked, managing to summarize the basis of the world in that single question, "How is that [i]not[/i] a reason to stop them? You guys [i]are[/i] trying to save people, yeah?"

"Whelp, this is definitely a... world." Seth said in response to his new surroundings. He and Tocsax were sent to the Incubator's world, the Emperor apparently agreeing with Seth's assessment of the aliens since the twos' mission was simply to take them down. Whether he meant actually destroying them or not, well... it didn't really matter. In the end, the Incubators had to be stopped before they could ally themselves with Leo and become an even larger threat. The idea of Leo being able to add an army of Witches or Magical Girls to his forces, well, that was just unacceptable.

[i]Humans - no, Nobodies, a telepathic voice boomed out from the inhabitants, if your business in the Incubators' Citadel is the destruction of our civilization, we must warn you that you risk the overall welfare of this universe...then again, mortals are so uncautious.[/i]

The Nobody instinctively clutched his head when the migraine came out of nowhere. Compounding that was a horrible screeching noise in his ears. And of all things he started seeing... a pyramid, with him inside it. He was preparing to face Hakim, so it looked like the incident just before they met the Princess of Heart in that world. After that he saw Moscow - more specifically, the tanks followed by his previous encounter with the assassin. What exactly were the Incubators trying to accomplish by making him relive recent events? Then some kind of hologram appeared. A girl in some kind of armor with a sword.

[i]Our universe's version of Jeanne D' Arc, a Magical Girl of immense power whose wish was 'to bring Light to France'. A 'Holy Warrior', her duplicate is intended to be a match against dark powers held by the entity known as Seth.[/i]

"So... you're basically sacrificing innocent girls to save your universe?" Seth asked, the headache pain starting to die down, "Or maybe you're just trying to save your own skins?" the image of Jeanne raised her sword in preparation for an attack, "It's all just numbers to you guys, right? The ends justify the means..." the girl lunged, going for a straight charge only to be pushed back by a sudden burst of sand, "Can't say I disagree with that, but my employer? Well, he [i]does[/i] disagree, and asked me ever-so-nicely to come put a stop to it. So here I am."

Jeanne charged again, thrusting her sword at the Nobody several times, even throwing in the occasional horizontal or diagonal slashes to vary it up. Seth was fast, though, able pivot his body from side to side or just sidestep the attacks altogether. Without warning he spun his body around and his entire leg from knee to ankle smashed into Jeanne's waist and sent her back several feet. It wasn't a very hard hit, so she recovered almost instantly and was on the move again.
