The Nurse pulled on her medical mask that was covering her mouth, she pulled the book close to herself and looked to Rachel," Now is that a threat ? Tsk tsk Rae you know your parents taught you better than that.. Have I met you, oh maybe you have, maybe you haven't, ask for the book nicely and I won't just hide it or burn it on a bonfire, half and half." the nurse said calling Rachel a name.

Rachel was slowly getting frustrated with this person, though she needed the book and had no interest in whether she once knew this woman or not, so swallowing her pride a little She looked the woman in the eyes "Please, may I have that book? I have a great need for it" She asked as polity as she could hoping the woman would comply.
Rachel had also taken notice that Spartan had landed close by her to, glad that he noticed the woman and the possible trouble and decided to come closer, Rachel didn't know if she was able to make it to him in her condition though but he was fast.

Spartan walked over to Rachel and the mystery nurse, his arms crossed lightly, he kept his eye's on the nurse, he wasn't sure about her, he then noticed the book in her arms, was that what they were looking for, Spartan decided to keep his mouth shut for now, he'd speak up if he needed to

The nurse smiled under her mask and handed the book to Rachel, she turned around to the door and started walking to the door, she opened it, but before she left she made an I'm watching you hand gesture, but closed her hands like she grabbed something, then pointed to Rachel, while she was doing this she spoke," I...Have....You." she said in a low tone before leaving out the library.

Rachel slowly and unsure took the book from the woman and slowly brought it back to herself, eyes never leaving the woman even as she started to leave, finding herself rather confused as she started to make strange hand gestures.
The nurses net words though sent shivers down Rachel's spine as she tried to find a reason to her words, who was that woman and what did she mean by 'I have you'?. Deciding that it was to much to think about though with the stuff she already has to sort out, Rachel just shrugged it off and turned to Spartan with the book in hand and looked to it "THat woman gives me the creeps, but we have what we were looking for. Help me to a Table please Spartan and lets start going through it" She asked him as she went to let go of the bookshelf and take a hold of his shoulder.

Spartan kept his glowing blue eye's on the nurse with a stern look, his arms still lightly crossed as he watched her leave, when Rachel spoke to him he looked to her
"I think we should trust her.... but we don't have many options at the moment" Spartan said as he helped Rachel to walk by putting her arm over his shoulder, and leading her to a table in the library and pulled out a chair for her, he gently set Rachel down and stood next to her
"well, lets open it up, and find out what's inside..." he said in a serous tone as he kept his eye's on the book

Rachel thanked Spartan as he helped her to the table and helped her sit down, closing her eyes to rest for a second but not long enough for her to pass out again, not when they were so close to finding out about that mark the Angel's leader gave her, not when they were so close to finding out what it is and what it is doing to her.
"Right, lets have a look at this" she muttered as she opened to the first page and skimmed through it, been a while since I have read a book, glad to know I haven't forgotten how to read" she joked a little though she was rather slow at reading.
It was about halfway through the book before Rachel recognised what she was looking for, the same marking and text about it "Oh here it is I found it!" She showed Spartan "It seems that it is disrupting my powers, that would be why my wings have been withdrawn" She read looking serious.

Spartan looked closely at the image, it was a direct match, but he couldn't read angelic, it wasn't in his data base, he narrowed his eye's slightly
"does it say how to get rid of it?" he asked in a serous tone as he scanned the angelic writing, his eye's quickly skimming over the words as he looked at them, not understanding anything in the book

Rachel gazed to the angelic writing trying to make full sense of it, it was strange since she had never seen the text before yet she could read it almost perfectly, she just figured it was the angel in her that helped her read it.
"Hmmm this part is difficult to read, though I think it says....it says you need to get the caster to remove it or kill the caster to undo the mark" She said dead panned "Great...who knows where he is at the moment and I can't go waltzing up to him or they will get me for sure" Rachel sighed frustrated "I guess this isn't going to be fixed for a while because we still have the major problem to deal with Spartan, that one Jacob left you in charge of"

Spartan grit his teeth and he slammed his right fist into the table, making a loud bang as it dented the metal table
"and just when I thought we were getting somewhere.... we're back at square one" it angered him that his friend was stuck in this state until they found the one that did this to her, that could currently be in heaven, a difficult place to get to
"well, maybe I could get you a temporary set of wings until you can get back control of yours" Spartan said as his anger began to subside
"but for now you need to get some rest, the balance between you angelic and demonic side still needs to be even out" he said in a caring and concerned manner with a smile
"come on, I'll help you to your room" he said as he offered to put her arm around his shoulder

Rachel jumped in surprise when Spartan slammed his fists into the table, watching as he expressed his caring anger towards her current situation "Hey come on now we aren't at square one. more like square two or three. We at least know what the mark is now and how to get rid of it: she smiled as she placed her hand on Spartan's arm.
When he mentioned about getting rest Rachel wanted nothing more but to comply, though she needed to test out her other powers as well to see if they have been affected "Yes I agree I do, I'm passing out almost but I can't just yet, I still need to test my powers" She told him sounding concerned "And there is a little bit more in this book I skimmed over that I want to read, it will take only minutes" she explained to him "After that then I promise I will go straight to bed and sleep for as long as I can" Rachel assured him

Spartan smiled as he stood back up
"well, I'm not stopping you, do what you think is necessary" he said with a smile as he walked over to the nearest book shelf and rested on it
"If you need anything, I'm right here" he said as he lightly crossed his arms, as he closed his eye's as he went into thought, a slight smile on him as he appeared to be resting

Rachel nodded and slowly got to her feet as she prepared to use her magic, hoping strongly that she could still use some of it at least, she was worried though because she didn't know how to fight without her magic and feared she would become useless to the team.
"Right" She muttered and took a breath to calm herself, first things first was trying to summon her weapon cause if she had that she wouldn't be completely useless. Holding out her hand she concentrated a little more than she normally had to but her Scythe soon appeared in hand, placing it aside she went to summon her next weapon the Sword Masemune "All right, so I can still summon my weapons but it takes more concentration than normal" she spoke to herself as she looked to her sword before placing that aside as well.
Rachel then turned to Spartan and gazed to him a little as he seemed to be resting, holding up her hand the hybrid attempted to force push him over, yet nothing happened no matter how hard she tried "Damn can't use that, not like I did much anyway" She sighed as she gazed to her hand.

Rachel was about to continue on with the test of her powers but was interrupted by the lights going out, grabbing one of her weapons from nearby the hybrid watched until only one was left by the door "Who goes there!?" She called out ignoring the chill in the air or the unnatural fog that covered the floor of the lybrary. She was weary about strangers now after what has happened to her and no doubt Spartan was to.

Rachel took one step back as she held her scythe up defensively, for some reason though she felt like she didn't have to fear this man, this fog seemed familiar as well and remembered she saw something recently when she was attacked.
"You were there when the Angels attacked weren't you? Tell me are you a friend or foe? I didn't not get the change to observe you properly as I was made a pincushion off with some arrows" She asked him though didn't drop her stance. One had to be careful with these types of characters for who knew what lay under those dark hoods.

Spartan opened his eye's when he heard Rachel call out to someone, he got off the book shelf and looked to the door to see a dark hooded figure, took a slightly offensive stance, he'd let Rachel do the talking, it seemed like she knew him somehow

Seiko was wondering the halls of the castle not knowing fully what to do till the mission,comes tomorrow.

Archer went back to her room to See the Kori clone," You know the doctor isn't in, shes right here ." Archer told the clone.

Marcus looked toward Archer with a small smirk on his face, he wasn't bothered at all that she wasn't there, he had already known. "Yeah, I know.." He said to her, glancing up at her with his red piercing eyes as he leaned against the wall. He wondered if the armory was finished with his suit's modifications. "I was just waiting on you..." He grinned, getting off of the wall and standing up straight.
