[IC] High school DXD (reboot)

[Suku]

(insert those who fight piano version advent children) Not bothering to dodge the light spear as it came soaring towards her Harusame sat there till the spear suddenly crashed at her feet and dissipated. “Tch don’t give me that proper lady crap I have you know the my eye is blind so I cover it with the eye patch.” She called out before standing up and slipping on two pairs of gloves. “My sacred gear for your knowledge Is gaea’s foundation and as such I have control over gravity of anything in my vicinity." She said before starting to run towards the fallen angel dodging more spears by tilting her head left and right. “One piece of advice to show what a caring person I am. All things eventually return to her embrace so what is up must come down!!” She yelled as she jumped over a nearby tree and manipulating the gravity around her to be lighter so she jumped to the same height as the angel before doing a axe kick and increasing the gravity on her foot. Once making contact with the fallen gravity played its role and she fell to the ground with a tremendous force. Landing down with a slight crash Harusame stood before settling into a fighting stance. Before being forced to dodge as a stab from a light spear was aimed at her stomach. Being forced onto the defensive she dodged the light spears that was aiming for her left, right, right, left and so forth for awhile. Till she eventually slipped up and was rewarded with a cut on her right arm. “Oh dear it seems that you got cut such a shame to cut such skin but as I said don’t hate me I been ordered to do so.” The fallen jeered at her while she was grasping her right arm. Wiping the blood of her should she took a deep breath and let the distractions leave her. “Oh what’s this gave up already don’t be like that give me some more enjoyment as I rip you limb from limb dearie” Harusame ignored the fallen’s taunts and focused on her breathing before opening her eyes and charged towards the fallen. Reaching the fallen she quickly punched her in the sternum followed by another to the stomach. Increasing the weight with each blow she placed upon the fallen. Before deciding to end it with a high kick to the shoulder followed by the heaviest she could make her fist to the stomach. “You should taunt only after you have finished the job. Since one never knows when the next wave would hit.” Harusame muttered before jumping back and going into a defensive block. As the fallen quickly retaliated by trying to punch her but missed as she jumped before the fist could land a blow on her. “So lets begin round two shall we?” Harusame muttered while circling the fallen to try and find any holes in her defense while trying to make sure her guard was up as well.

Their was tingling in her spine as she felt the presence of something holy come near her, their was a woman nearby saying hymens to herself as she walked closer and closer carrying a large rod that looked like a simple stick with the image of the cross on it though she could tell it contained a spear possibly dipped in holy water and or being a holy spear considering the feeling it gave. Seeing that this was going to be hard to fight in where she was she fled to the forest where there was probably less chances of innocents getting hurt Taking out her red jian the holy sword Hisou a treasure that was passed down to her as she fled before she became a devil. She quickly unfurled her wings a pair of large crow wings that if one would to just tell by glance made her look like a fallen. Floating in air she watched as the priestess approached looking out of breath from having ran here in pursuit. "come out little birdie come out come out where ever you are." The priestess crowed while brandishing her spear looking around the area. Seeing as she was unspotted Aya quickly flew up a bit higher before going in for a diving kick and hitting the priestess in the back launching her into a nearby tree. "Such a dirty trick doing that to a lady of the cloth for that I am afraid that it means death for you" the priestess said as she recovered and tried to attack her with multiple stabs. "Your to slow ya know I seen crows move faster than that" Aya remarked as she left illusionary doubles of her as she quickly ran from spot to spot dodging the spear. "Stay still so I can stab you" the priestess growled as she tried to stab her before going for a different tactic and using a low sweep to trip Aya. Falling from being tripped Aya responded by jabbing her sword into the her shoulder and kicking her before jumping up again. "Tch need to get serious she obviously knows how to fight with that spear and how to attack those faster than her." Aya muttered to herself before going into a flurry of attacks with the jian though most was blocked by the spear. Jumping back and brandishing her sword aya started to activate its ability. Before thrusting the sword causing the mist around the blade to form a small arrow that shot towards the priestess. "You see the sword creates a scarlet mist one that grants the user to freely use it as they wish." Aya said as she charged foward towards the priestess. Seeing this and reacting accordingly she held her spear in front of her and with a quick thrust knocked the jian out of Aya's hand before pinning her to a tree. "This isn't over you know not by a long shot normally I wouldn't bother but orders were to eliminate the demon and so I am" The priestess explained "so please return the life you took back to god."

Taiga turned immediately when he heard the voice and noticed the change in the surrounding area. "A fallen angel. Dammit." He said angrily as he started down the man. This was so annoying. Couldn't he just get one hour. ONE! Just a single hour, hell even a moment where he could forget about these bastards. Just as that thought crossed his mind He thought of Kaelani. He didn't mind her so much... He just couldn't trust a fallen angel. But thinking that made him feel bad. She wasn't evil or anything. There was no reason to... No... She was a fallen angel. Same as the rest. "Listen up small fry. You're obviously having a moment, but I don't have time to wait." The Fallen Angel spoke quickly as he threw down the spear of light. Luckily Taiga managed to dodge. The fruits of his training no doubt. He had really been working hard to better himself. "Sacred Gear." Taiga held out his hand as he removed his mask to see better as it somewhat obstructed his view in combat. "Great Dragon Sword. Welsh." He spoke swiftly as the blade formed in his hand a distinct red pattern evident. Time seemed to be going in slow motion as he and the fallen angel stare each other down. Boost! The sword glowed, as a low somewhat distorted voice rang out. Almost as if it were a signal Taiga ran forward and jumped, swinging at his opponent who simply shifted to the side. He was faster than he used to be, but still fairly slow compared to these supernatural beings. "Here's the thing you little idiot. Like most 've heard stories of the Welsh Dragon Boosted gear. It doesn't matter a power up or two, a weakling who gets a bit stronger is still a weakling." The fallen angel laughed as another Boost! rang out. Taiga grit his teeth having landed as he swung around only to be met with another Spear of light flying at him. He just barely got out of the way. "And even if it keeps making you stronger, it's not like I'm gonna let you get strong enough to beat more or even get away." He added with a laugh as he flew towards Taiga who seemed to be running away. "Like I give a fuck!" Taiga quickly turned with a shot. The fallen angel was shocked having though Taiga would be running only to be met with a cut across his chest. Luckily he'd pulled back or that could have been bad. Taiga was smarter than he seemed. Likely cause of video games. He wasn't about to give his back to the enemy. And he wasn't going to go out without a fight. Dammit... I hope the others are okay. Hopefully I'll get some reinforcements. "Alright you little shit. I hope you've made your peace. Cause I'm not even in the mood to fuck around anymore!" The Fallen angel shouted as Taiga's battle began once again.

[Jangel13]

Lorenzo could feel their was something very wrong and his suspicions were confirmed when he felt the presence of fallen angels and not Kaelani but of Angels with the intent of killing his pieces. Lorenzo got up and he opened his desk to let his familiar lamia out Lamia I need you to go and find Miria quickly and help her in any way you can the snake nodded and quickly and started to slither fast to her knowing that her magic would benefit from a snake and even more so if she decided to go into human form which most believed looked like medusa without the ability to turn things into stone. Lorenzo turned to cell phone and called Kaelani and when she picked up he said Kaelani I need you to go and find taiga, and help him. If I know anything about him is that hes getting into his fight I need you to get him back here. I need to go and get the others back here so we can be in school grounds. I cant believe that these people are trying to dived us Lorenzo said angrily and he made a seal on the ground so he could teleport over to Harusame as the first person to help...

"..-Of course, we're available most afternoons and weekends, so please feel free to call upon us. And here, if you're satisfied with the work provided, hand these out to your friends. I look forward to doing business with you." Her hands came together in front of her as she watched the woman leave with the last few fliers they had been assigned to hand out her eyes closing as a gentle sigh escaped through her lips, "I think that's been enough time... The others should be out doing their jobs, so I should be able to read in peace without having to listen to Taiga and his accusing words against me... Ready to head back Mahiro?" Turning her gaze down as she felt his soft fur brushing lovingly against her skin she couldn't help the smile that crossed over her lips the two of them moving together as they began to leave the area that they had ended up in heading back towards the club room, "Kaelani, I thought you'd never ask, and as long as I get to cuddle into those two perky pillows there on your chest, I am more than happy to head back with you." Rolling her eyes she shook her head softly her arms swinging gently back and forth in rhythm with her hips with each step she took her body freezing however when she felt the air around her shift causing her muscles to tense and her brows to furrow, realizing she was no longer with him Mahiro stopped turning his body back around to look back at her a curious and slightly worried expression on his features, "Are you alright? Are you not feeling well? Because I can carry you back if you nee-..." "Something is not right..." Feeling her phone vibrate in her pocket she slipped her hand in pulling it out before she answered not getting the chance to speak before Lorenzo had confirmed her own conclusion, throwing her mobile to the side knowing that Mahiro would catch it she reached around her body she gripped a tight hold of her jumper lifting it up and off her body just in the nick of time saving it from being completely destroyed as she forced herself to change, her human facade dropping to show the hybrid that she had become. Hunching her shoulders slightly her lips turned up in a small smile as she listened to the sound of her school shirt ripping apart due to the pressure as her large angelic-like wings (one pure white, the other pure black) burst from her shoulder blades sending stray feathers falling to the ground behind her as they beat heavily the tips brushing over the ground, wrapping them tightly around her body she rid herself of the rags that had now become another useless school uniform her black armor-like clothing quickly spreading over her body keeping her decent from prying eyes. Unfolding her wings as she kicked off her shoes and socks leaving her barefooted she turned her attention over to her familiar her eyes now cold and calculating as she spoke giving him a quick order, "Gather my things and take them back to the club room... And if you forget anything this time, you will be sleeping outside for a month. Once you've done that go search, and help the first person you find! Got it?" Not bothering to wait for a reply she beat her wings down hard lifting herself up into the air her hair changing, growing... The normal beautiful dark brown locks slowly turning a mixture of black and white the tech-like armor surrounding it not looking like much though it had kept her from a number of serious head injuries before, catching sight of the scene unfolding below her eyes fell on a familiar figure running while yet another figure she knew chased the first down, hunting him like some sort of wild animal. Pressing her wings almost completely flat behind her body she dove down quickly closing the gap between her and the other two her gloved hands twitching lightly by her sides as she hit the ground coming down between them both. Turning her body around she shot her arms out in front of her a strong concentrated burst of air rushing towards one of her old brothers hitting him squarely in the chest and causing him to stumble back slightly, standing up straighter her hands came together on her right hip her fingers brushing against the hilt of the sword she wore the blade glittering in the light of the afternoon sun. Regaining his stance the angel smirked his eyes flicking over her before he began to close the gap only taking a couple of steps towards her, "My oh my... Kaelani, well haven't you grown; what's it been? A couple of decades?" Her hands gripped hold of the hilt of her sword her eyes narrowing and anger clear on her face as she stared at the man before her not caring too much for his so called friendly banter, "Not long enough Cael... Come to right the wrong you helped to commit all those years ago?" Shaking his head he brought his spear back up his position shifting causing her to pull her own blade the two of them making it clear that there was never going to be common ground between them again, "No, but I shall take pleasure in finishing the job right this time." Pushing away from their places at the same time the two of them met in the middle their weapons meeting between them with a loud clang of metal upon metal causing her to growl out her next words, "Yes, remember our training? If you're going to kill someone, you should do it right the first time!"

[Demon Shinobi]

Taiga was shocked when Kaelani arrived. This was way too crazy. Did she know him? Taiga really wasn't too sure about her story. Aquaintances? Maybe more? He couldn't pry. But he couldn't help but be relieved. Still part of him was so confused and unsure. Even if she'd just saved him he couldn't just trust a fallen angel. And yet here he was watching her. Staring, his eyes penetrating as he paid close attention. He didn't really have the energy to keep running or fighting. Part him wanted to shout that he could handle it or not to interfere, but even his sacred gear had retreated. God he was so weak. He was just barely standing. He was bleeding, a cut along his right arm. His chest slashed as "payback" for his earlier attack. And a small wound along his back from where he'd just narrowly avoided a direct hit from a Spear of Light. He felt as though all his work had been pointless. Despite seeing obvious results... To still be so weak. Even now all he could do was leave a battle that was his to fight just a moment ago to another member of the household who he'd so recently insulted. A member that even now he couldn't bring himself to fully trust. Somehow he hated himself for it. And even so he hated the fallen angels. So much confliction. So much anger and frustration. And he could still do nothing about it. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! His arm was bleeding a bit more than he'd have likely. But there was still one thing he could do. If he could activate his sacred gear and have Kaelani touch it he could transfer power that it had accumulated over time to her. Yeah... At least then he could be helpful. "Sacred Gear. Great Dragon Sword. Welsh." He said summoning the blade once more. Almost immediately there was a rather loud Boost!. After another minute or so another. And another. "Come on..." Hopefully that damn Fallen Angel bastard wouldn't get to him before he could try and transfer the power to Kaelani. I'm gonna need to train a hell of a lot more after this... He thought frustrated with himself.

[Hebigami Shiho]

Miria felt that she was at the mercy of this rival onmyouji. Maybe she was done for, she felt like that anyway. Dying a second time? The first one wasn't pretty, if she could have at least chosen how she would die, she'd at least have wanted for her to go out with some unicorns and rainbows in the background. All right, not exactly, but she did feel powerless at the current situation. She gritted her teeth with frustration. Right now, she could only try and find some way to make her way out of this, and all of the simulations inside her head ended in failures. There was just no way to win this. She took two talismans into her hand. She already felt weak, she knew it would be futile to continue opposing them, at least, alone. "But at the very least, I can stall them for some time. Just... please, boss." Somehow, Miria thought Lorenzo would actually come and help her. Wishful thinking, but she really hoped for that. Well, she'd make do with just about anyone from the peerage, to be honest, but Lorenzo would be just ideal. "Order!" She put the two talismans on the ground and shouted. Soon, two low level, shield-like shikigamis, came out from her talismans. She then grabbed a whole bunch of talismans and spread the out in the air, making them stick to her defense familiars. To be honest, not all hope was lost. Her Sacred Gear still gave her talismans, so that meant that she could still win the match, no matter how slim the chance. If her Sacred Gear didn't produce anymore talismans, that means she had no means of winning, but the fact that she still had some fight in her, then she could still win... maybe. "I see that you are not as cheeky and proud as I first thought. You know when to defend, even so, they will not stand longer against these babies." The wolves started tacklign the two shield like shikigamis at Miria's service. "Hah, who is the idiot now? Order!" Miria put one hand down, about to activate her spell. However, nothing happened, and to be honest, she was really surprised. "Wha!? Why?!" "It's futile. I already knew you'd pull something of... my own talismans are negating your-! Crap!" As the wolf was speaking, suddenly, a snake fell upon it and started biting it. Before long, the wolf disappeared into nothingness. Miria recognized it almost instantly. If she was correct, that was the boss' familiar. "Boss! Thank you! Now, as for you...." With now renewed fighting spirit, Miria took two other talismans and held them in her hands. "Wind! Gust forward and clear my path!" Two powerful streams of wind came out from the talismans she was still holding, and blew away the talismans. The snake familiar from before quickly moved to her side and transformed into a woman wiht white hair, probably to give her cover. Soon, the woman controlling the opposing shikigami appeared in the scene. "Hmph. It seems you are more troublesome that I first expected. I will have to deal with you personally." Grabbing a number of talismans into her own hands, she preapred for battle. "I WILL exorcise you, demon mock of an onmyouji!"

[Vicier]

Tensing her jaw she slid one of her hands from the hilt of the sword letting it glide down the blade before she pressed her palm flat against it throwing her weight into her stance causing him to once more stumble back giving her the opportunity to bring it around and up the tip cutting into his shoulder, her already cold dark eyes seeming more black than normal as he caught his stance again wincing slightly at the pain in his shoulder though an eerily creepy chuckle still managed to slip through his lips filling the air around them, "It was a mistake to let you live as long as you have. I will be the first to admit that we were young and foolish to believe that you, of all Angels, wouldn't survive your fall from grace... But take my word on it, I will not make that mistake a second time Kaelani." Lowering her blade so that the tip was dragging along behind her just as the tips of her wings were doing she continued to stare him down each step towards him causing the ground to crack below her bare feet, "Because I will not give you the chance. Just as I will not give you the chance to touch another hair on his head." Quickening her pace she brought her hand across both now gripping tightly to the hilt as she brought it up and around again and again, each movement more ferocious and violent then the next forcing him into defending himself rather than attacking and in turn pushing him further and further away from where Taiga was situated the sound of his gear being activated ringing in the recesses of her mind though she was barely concentrating on it, the young fallen one too focused on keeping the one member she hadn't truly seen eye to eye with at a safe distance while the thought of sweet revenge on one of the three Angels that had ruined her life slowly began to creep in on her thoughts. "You are pathetic and weak! Sinking to the level at which you have... Protecting those beasts you were once trained to seek out and destroy..!" Letting out a loud and frustrated yell she once more swung her blade around catching him in the side though her action was foreseen a sharp pain issuing through her body spreading out from her stomach as she felt the the tip of his spear slice through her skin leaving a deep gash in its wake, "If that is how you see me then so be it. I would rather be seen in that light, then as the monster in which you are! Turning on one of your own... I trusted you, and you betrayed me! You are nothing more than a coward!" Her body shook slightly though it was more due to her anger for the man before her rather then the pain that she hadn't really taken much notice of at this point, once her adrenaline had receded and she was down from her fight she would feel it, but for now it was further then the last thing on her mind. Concentrating her mind on her blade she watched as it slowly began to heat up the metal glowing around the edges causing flames to rise up licking at the sword and threatening all who it's wielder deemed an enemy, the flames reflecting in her eyes and illuminating her face even in the light of the day adding to the cold and merciless expression she held towards him, "I would gladly spend the rest of eternity protecting someone who does not trust me, especially if it means I am able to take pleasure in running you through with my own blade Cael. And believe me... It will be a pleasure..."

[Demon Shinobi]

Taiga felt like an absolute idiot. He was so mean to her. Terrible... What kind of a jerk was he? Even if she was a Fallen Angel... "Dammit." He spoke quietly as he shook his head. Now wasn't the time to think about that. He had to focus on his sacred gear. 5. That was the current number of boosts that had rung out as Kaelani was locked in combat with the other Fallen Angel. "6." He was counting. He had to. He was waiting for ten. It was likely the max in his current condition and he had to be ready. "7." This was getting unbearable. He had to think of something. Because right now he wasn't even sure he could get the transfer to Kaelani. "Wait..." He said with a sudden realization. "I got it." He grinned, forcing himself to his feet. He was still bleeding. And the sudden movement caused a bit more pain. "8." He counted the next boost, panting slightly. "HEY BASTARD! GET AWAY FROM THE QUEEN!" He shouted in an attempt to gain Cael's attention and hopefully Kaelani's in the process. BOOST! That was number 9. Just one more. He needed one more. He wasn't gonna let it end without being able to offer at least a little support. That was probably the reason he pulled one of the stupidest things he could. He charged forward, banking on Kaelani getting to him before the other Fallen Angel. This was increasingly hard though considering the amount of trust he had to put in her to reach him. Though he wouldn't likely admit that. Nope... Probably not.

[Kiso]

"This life never belonged to god" Aya spat out at the priestess if she was going to die than she would at least die fighting standing strong for her boss she thought. Though she never did get to finish that since as soon as she was about to fight back she saw the blur of a familiar figure. "of course its the flying rat I run into first" She heard the voice say before revealing itself as Mahiro. "Tch stupid fox always butting into things that don't require you your master let you off your leash for once" Aya said as come back. "Still all things said and done thanks for saving me though dont expect a reward your mangy fox" Aya said as she grabbed her Jian once more. "Oh my please wait your turn she must give back the life she stole back to god than ill get to you" the priestess said as she quickly recovered. Not wanting to waste a chance Aya charged forward "watch as I turn everything to pure speed Shippu Jinrai!" Aya shouted as she used the mist to make illusionary doubles of her self which than proceeded to attack her at blinding speeds. "Always so flashy thats why I hate you flying rats at times" Mahiro commented as he charged at the priestess knocking her against a tree. "Tch filthy devils touching me a person of the cloth die like the filthy pests you are!" The priestess shouted going after the two once more.

[Suku]

This was bad Harusame thought she was on the losing end of the "second round". "Is this all you got devil I expected more from you after all isn't this supposed to be the second round?" Ignoring the taunts she focused on the enemy punching and kicking her when she was able. Knew I should have trained more with a weapon she thought to herself bitterly but she refused for this to be the end. "Im not done yet after all its time to tip the scales" she yelled before jumping and grabbing the fallen before kicking her in the stomach after increasing the gravity around her legs to give it more force. Seeing the fallen on the ground in pain she tried to follow through with another attack only for it to be blocked at the last second. "I have to admit that was good and you do what you must to win though you are still weak" the fallen said as she grabbed her leg and threw her into the tree. This pissed Harusame off in a rage she charged forward at the enemy "try this on for size than!"She yelled trying to punch the fallen only for her fist to be caught by the fallen and crushed before being knocked into the ground. Harusame tried to get back up she was only rewarded with a light spear to the shoulder causing her to fall back down again. "Sorry boss looks like I was just to weak please forgive me for my weakness." Though just about when she was going to give up she saw a figure arrive one she knew all to well. "Boss!!" Harusame cried at seeing Lorenzo before trying to get back up again it wasn't over not by a long shot she thought.

[Vicier]

"Hey bastard! Get away from the Queen!" Her heart sunk in her chest the moment the words hit her ear the familiar voice angrily shouting out getting louder and louder with each step he took closer to the two of them, if catching the attention of both fallen was what Taiga had intended on doing then he had most certainly succeeded in doing just that. Shooting her head back she let her eyes flick over to his figure catching sight of it slowly closing the gap she had worked hard to create causing each and every one of her previous actions to be wasted in vein, turning her head back a little too late she scrunched up her face as she felt a sharp and excruciating pain shoot through her head the golden metal of his spear coming down hard, splitting open the skin and allowing blood to run down her face staining both her and her white locks of hair a bright crimson red. "It seems as though your little beast isn't the sharpest tool in the shed if you catch my drift... I'll take pleasure in draining his life before your eyes." Stumbling slightly she pressed the tip of her blade into the ground both hands gripping hold of the hilt as she tried her best to keep herself stead on her feet, lifting her head up she shook it slightly her eyes following his movements as he began to move towards Taiga's figure knowing that if she didn't move or act now she wouldn't be able to keep him from breathing in his last breath, "No... Taiga, get back..!" Pushing past the throbbing pain echoing through her mind she forced her feet to move her arm shaky as she lifted her blade up making it easier on herself as she tried her best to get to him first in this footrace she had seemed to enter into, scrunching up her face in pure concentration she flapped her wings behind her giving her the boost she needed to quickly push herself in front of Cael her arms reaching out to wrap around Taiga the moment she got close enough to touch him, her blade pressing against his back. "What the hell were you thinking?! Do you want to die?! Is that it-..." Beating her wings as hard as she could she lifted them both up into the air her words cutting short the moment she felt his sacred gear pressing against her body, what power that he had managed to accumulate within it now seeping into her, pulsing through her veins joining whatever power she still had of her own. Lowering her eyes down to where he was in her arms she clenched her jaw her voice soft though holding the unmistakable tone of danger letting him know that she even though she was grateful for his out-of-the-box thinking she was more then unimpressed by his rash and reckless actions (though her eyes showed nothing but worry), "..Thank you... Now once I put you down... Drop to the floor and don't move. If you insist on trying to help, I need you where I can protect you. You don't have to trust me, but please... Just listen to me for once..." Flattening her wings back behind her she dove towards the ground her arms tightening around his body a pained growl escaping through her soft pink lips as she swerved slightly the spear catching her on the wing causing them to beat over time, both blood and feathers sprawling out behind them before floating to the ground below leaving a trail leading directly back to them not that it mattered much when the one who was trying to kill them was following hot on their trail. Stumbling as she hit the ground she quickly dropped her arms from around his body her hands gripping tightly to the hilt of her blade once more as she turned the sound of metal meeting metal once more filling the air though this time she wasn't moving from her place, wrapping her wings up she let them fold in over Taiga keeping him as close to her as she could while keeping him out of sight and away from the danger of being injured anymore than he already had. Leaning forward she lifted her leg up before she slammed the soul of her foot down onto the ground causing a large crack to appear forcing Cael to stumble backwards giving them more space to move, turning her head back she tightened her wings just that little bit more making sure that she was doing her job by keeping him as safe as she possibly could in their current situation, "Argh..! You have interfered for the last time Kaelani!" Her eyes widened in slight shock at the close proximity of his voice her attention turning back just in the nick of time as her eyes caught on his figure soaring down towards her anger in his eyes and his posture showing that he was intent on killing, reaching out she shot her arm out managing to slide her forearm over the spear turning it away from where it was pointed at her heart the tip sliding into her sternum electrical sparks coursing through her as she lifted her own blade up shoving it through his chest at the same time the both of them meeting in the middle. Yanking her arm back she ripped her sword from his chest watching him fall at her feet her grip on her blade loosening before it slipped completely her knees giving way under her causing her to hit the dirt her eyes closing tightly as she shakily reached to the spear sticking out of her, unfolding her wings from around Taiga she braced herself ignoring the sharp pains pulsing through her palms as she gripped hold of it tightly before ripping it out of her body letting it clatter over the ground the pain from each of her rather vicious and deep set wounds now catching up to her as she wrapped her arm tightly around her middle hiding them from sight and trying her best to keep herself from allowing too much of her blood to seep out her voice shaky as she spoke out between breaths, "..Get yourself... Out of here. Now... If I need to fight again... I can't... Protect you as well... As stay alive..."

[Jangel13]

Lorenzo stepped between her and the fallen and said don't give up harusame, your a rook in the service to house Amadeus. we never give up and we hold our own remember? Lorenzo said grinning at her then he turned to the fallen and said you and your associates are trying to kill all of my servants and for that you will all pay dearly Lorenzo said to her angrily as Lorenzo started to cast his spell harusame, I need you to keep her busy while I cast. im going to make sure we take her for questioning Lorenzo told her as he started to cast his spell and the green circle appeared below him and the circle had its first chain appear and Lorenzo would need at least 4 chains to bind the fallen completely so now harusame needed to buy Lorenzo time then he would help the others as he could...

[Demon Shinobi]

Taiga couldn’t believe it when Kaelani ended up getting more hurt. He’d thought she could easily defend against Cael and then come to his aid. Still she had gotten o him before the other fallen angel, which he was grateful for. Even if having her carry him up was kind of unexpected. Luckily the power had reached ten and was transferred. “Die? Definitely don’t wanna do that. Guess it was stupid to think I could help, huh?” Taiga spoke with a slight chuckle as he looked away, trying to hide his shame for causing more harm than good, and the light blush on his face at being carried by her. It was kind of embarrassing. “But fine.” He said calmly with a small sigh. “I’ll listen to you Queen.” He added just before she started heading downwards. “H-hey! At least try to keep yourself from getting anymore hurt.” His eyes locked on her wing. How far was sher willing to go for this? It wasn’t like he even deserved it the help. But still, she seemed to have a stake in this as well. That other fallen angel. He couldn’t say he wasn’t curious about her reasons for hating and wanting so bad to kill him. How had he and the others involved have betrayed her? He’d never really tried to get to know her. Or let her know him. He didn’t even explain really why he hated fallen angels. He just made it seem like he did. No explanations whatsoever. When they hit the ground he was quick to attempt to try and follow her orders. He had just said he would listen after all. Even if only for a little while. But soon her wings folding up around him. Wha?! He couldn’t even think properly when it happened. He couldn’t react or move. And he could do was simply allow her to finish her battle. Taiga had actually remained rather quiet until the battle ended. No doubt he’d wished he could do more. Anyone would in this situation. But with the tightening of her wings he couldn’t very well do much more but bend to her whim and stay out of the way. He hated this. Sure he was safe. He FELT safe. But he didn’t like having to be protected. He’d wanted to have changed that when he became a devil. And yet, here he was. “Dammit Kaelani.” He wanted to complain about it and wanting to have helped, but he knew how stupid that was. “You let yourself get way to hurt.” He panted a bit as he knelt beside her. “You know we can’t have the Queen dying for the Pawn.” He shook his head a bit. Despite his words he was still trying to figure out why she went out of her way to come to his aid. Even if Lorenzo had ordered it, it didn’t make all that much sense to him given how he treated her all the time. Then she was going on about him leaving her there in case someone else came. “Geez. Don’t be stupid.” He said as he hoisted her up onto his back. Given he’d done little to nothing for the duration of the fight he had some energy back. He could at least carry her out of here. Besides, he could ignore his wounds which seemed so minor in comparison to her own. “There’s no way you can fight in your condition. And what the hell am I supposed to do if you die because of me?” He began moving forward refusing to leave her. And something told him she wasn’t much for struggling in her current condition. “If you’re worried about someone else showing up, I’ll just get us out of here before that happens.” He looked down as he picked up the pace. “And I’m gonna pay you back for this. The next time we’re caught up in a battle, I’ll be the one doing the protecting. “ He wasn’t trying to sound cool or anything. He took a serious blow to his pride and felt like crap about how things had turned out.

"Don't worry I'm not done yet." Aya called out as she blocked a few blows from the priestess. "Hey fox think you can keep up with my speed" she called out to Mahiro. "Dont worry you flying rat Ill be able to keep up" he replied as he followed Aya's cue. Blocking more blows from the priestess and luring her into a sense of winning she motioned for Mahiro to attack from behind with a flick of her left wing. Taking the hint he followed up the attack launching himself on the priestess's back he quickly took her down. "Be prepared to jump on my command" Aya called before charging forward flying at a high speed with her sword at the ready. Quickly dashing forward she unleashed a solid blow on the stomach as Mahiro jumped out of the way allowing the priestess to get up only to get cut at the stomach. "That fucking hurt you stupid devils!" Good thats the plan Aya called out before doing a U turn in the air and coming in for a second attack. Once again hitting the priestess though on the back this causing her to fall down in pain. Seeing a opening Mahiro took the chance and pounced upon the priestess clawing at the arm causing her to drop the spear in the process. "Tch can't take much more of this" She muttered before standing up cradling her injured arm and running. "Don't think you won this time devils I will come back and finish the job than" She yelled as she ran away from view. Seeing as the fight was finished Aya collapsed sitting on the ground her injuries catching up as she nursed her left arm. This isn't going to heal soon she thought. Seeing the spear on the ground she stood up and picked it up with her right arm and using it as a walking stick she headed off with Mahiro leaving ahead to report the damages to the queen.

"Let me show you the real difference between an amateur and an expert like me!" The opposing onmyouji said, letting a pair of her own talismans float out of her hands. "Un!" She simply said, and both of the talismans came to life and transformed into another pair of wolves, though these ones were red and looked even more ferocious than before, they seemed wild, as if they were just waiting to tear their prey apart, and Miria felt that insane killing intent, and a chill going down her spine. "Tear her apart!" With a motion of her hand, the three wolves advanced foraward, fangs first. The Lamia-like familiar also advanced forward, ready to battle as well. She took on the remaining, normal looking wolf, while she let the other two red wolves for Miria to deal with. She took two talismans of her own. "Servants of fire, heed my call and burn everything to cinders! Order!" She throws both talismans into the air, and both of them transform while on the air, turning into a pair of gigantic, orange lizards that fall right in front of Miria. "Let me show you, then, my genius! It won't go like last time!" At the sight of the approaching wolves, both lizards seem to prepare to clash. One of them is able to stop one of the wolves by throwing its whole body at it, making it fall down with a whimper, and the lizard pinning it down. The other wolf, though, passes by the lizard, as it stays there, seemingly spacing out. Though, the next moment, the lizard grabs the wolf's foot with its tail and stops it from advancing any further. It slowly turns around, ready to fight the wolf. "I see, you are really good at controlling your shikigamis. You can handle two at the same time. You'd be in deep trouble if it wasn't for that familiar over there that obviously isn't yours." The woman said, standing on the opposite side from her and with a smile on her face. "Stop playing around and get rid of those things already." She orders her familiars. Both wolves eyes glow and then howl. Meanwhile, the lamia familiar is fighting its hardest against the other wolf, dodging the bites it throws at her with incredible grace, and slowly wrapping her snake tail around it, while it remains unknowing of what she is doing. Before long, it has been completely wrapped in the tail of Lamia, and she starts squeezing it, until it finally disappears, leaving only the talisman to fall to the ground. "Tch. How troublesome. No matter, both of you will go down in the end." "Just try it! With boss's help, there's no way we will go down easily! Order!" The eyes of the lizards also light up. Soon, the wolves howl, both at the same time, and from the earth come out spikes, impalling one of the lizards. Just before disappearing, it roars along with the other lizard, and a sudden burst of flames comes out of their mouths. The lizards succesfully bring down the wolves, though one of them disappears and only the talisman remains pierced by the earth spike. "I won't be tired forever, you know? I am not about to let you win this easily!" "Try as you might, you still will not win. I've got more energy than you. This fight is as good as mine." The woman says, seemingly pretty confident, however, Miria herself also looked pretty confident and with a big smile on her face. "I wouldn't count so much on that. I still have several tricks up my slip."

"Roger" Harusame quickly said before rushing at the fallen again. With renewed vigor she started to attack the fallen giving her little time to really react to what was happening. "Oh where did you find this power" the fallen asked as she blocked and deflected the attacks. "Like I will tell you anything" Harusame shouted back as she landed a solid blow upon the fallen knocking her back. "Won't be able to last much longer boss my injuries are catching up" Harusame said as she cut off the fallen who was going to after Lorenzo. "Take this" she shouted as she punched the fallen using her full strength and abilities granted to her by the rook piece along with increasing the gravity of the punch itself.

Lorenzo ignored harusame and kept concentrating as more chain circles appeared around him first then the second and so on until I call upon the 4th circle of hell, greed. Bend your chains to my will so that I may take control and send this soul to the depths. 4th circle greed! Lorenzo called out and his chains quickly appeared before him numerous and since they came from the circle of green they were tinted with gold and blood of those who's sin was of greed. The chains quickly sprung forth and went to capture the fallen and although she was fast the chains didn't give up until her body was captured all of her body but her face was wrapped in the gold chains. Lorenzo quickly fell to the ground panting a little, he was still learning to use the Amadeus magic of the jailor and so far could only go up to 5 circles out of the 9. He still needed practice but for now he had gotten their target he turned to harusame grab her and make sure she gets back to the club room, don't worry as long as I live those chains will bind her so she wont hurt you. I need to find the others and make sure their okay Lorenzo said panting a little as he tried to leave and look for the others...

"Tricks aren't going to work on a pro like me, little girl. While the other lady was boasting about herself, Miria was already with her eyes closed and chanting her next attack, with a pair of talismans right in front of her. "Could you at the very least turn to see me while I speak? I may be the last thing you see, you know? Un!" A talisman flies out of her hand and drops to the ground, it soon turns into a wolf the same size of the lady controlling it. "You've pissed me off enough for me to use this. My most powerful shikigami will now wipe the floor with you." The wolf indeed seemed quite ferocious. "Amarok, tear her apart!" Meanwhile, Miria continued on with her chanting, though it seemed more as if she was mumbling. "4 cardinal points, aid me now. Guard me from harm, don't let anything through your barrier. 4 cardinal points..." She continued on repeating the same verse for a while. The enemy onmyouji raised an eyebrow, but still, she didn't hesitate to continue on with her attack. "Order!" She motioned forward with her arm, the gigantic wolf following suit with that, it was about to throw itself at Miria, but was suddenly stopped by something , that was seemingly invisible. It went down with a whimper. "W-What?" the woman extended her hand and found herself trapped in Miria's barrier. "You.... When did you set all of this up, you damned brat!?" She looked around and saw that she was surrounded by four talismans, that were keeping the barrier in place for Miria. "Un!" With her hand up, she tried something against Miria's barrier, as a great wave of force lashed out against the barrier. "It's so tough... Amarok!" The wolf started tackling the barrier, to no avail. "The match has already been decided!" Miria said to her, pointing at the trapped woman. "I did all of this while you were busy bluffing about you being a pro and whatnot! You are no longer able to do anything now!" "Hehe, do you really think a barrier like this will keep me in hold for a long while?" She took out a pair of talismans she could use. "I merely need to dispel this at once and I'll get on with your pounding. Besides, it isn't as strong as you think. You already look tired." She smiled, while Miria was indeed panting to get some air into her lungs. The match had really worn her out, but she still smiled. "No, like I said, there's no longer anything else you can do. The barrier is not meant to keep you at bay. It is meant to keep you from escaping." As she said so, the woman inside her barrier slowly turned, only to find there Lamia, Lorenzo's damiliar, ready to strike at the enemy. Like a snake, her tongue started going in and out of her mouth. "All yours, Lamia-chan." "N-no! Amarok!" Even before her shikigami could do anything, Lamia had already put her body all around her and bit her neck. Soon enough, the woman fell unconscious from both the strength of Lamia's grip and the poison in her veins. Miria dropped her barrier and sat down on the ground, finally letting a relieved sigh. "That was tough... Thank you, Lamia-chan, Boss."

Sighing as she grabbed the collar of the fallen she dragged her kicking and screaming back to the base ignoring the odd looks along the way. The trip it was tedious considering all her injuries while her own arm hanged limp due to have lost all feeling in it. Still she supposed it helped in a way she found out she need to work more on her strength and speed and perhaps try and get a weapon to aid her as well perhaps a trip to the familiar forest to get a familiar as well if she could convince Lorenzo of doing that she supposed. Continuing with those thoughts she threw the fallen a corner of the room ignoring her pained yelped from the impact as she collapsed on the couch and decided a nap was probably in order.
