Thorn smiled, overjoyed, at the sprite falling asleep at her fingertips. She wouldn't kill the dear- that would be lame, end her fun, and Thorn was relatively sure that some sprites got re-incarnated anyway, so what was the point? Thorn smiled manically, trying not to laugh because she didn't need anyone to notice her- not just yet. Thorn picked up the girl- she was light, that was good- in both arms, and winked at Kurasu
'See you soon love, Meet you in the highest tower' She wasn't sure if he could hear her, but he knew she liked high places, He would find her. Besides, The giant clock tower near the school was the only place she could get to without getting lost.
because she could actually see it. She opened the door (after stepping over a couple of misplaced sheep) And tried to sneak out. she accidentally slammed the door behind her.
#*@&
Nice job looser.
I know, I know, go to hell!
You're kinda useless
ALL that you are good for is making poison, you brat!
As this was going on, of course, Thorn was already dashing to the clocktower, fast as she could given her laiden state.
The girl stirred a tad in her slumber.
"hush sweetheart, I wont hurt you." And she wouldn't. not physically. Thorn smiled and opened the door to the clocktower, ascending slowly. she was tired. She spotted an elevator and thanked the stars.
"Going up?" she said, walking in and pressing the button for the top floor.
As the elevator dinged at the top, she put the Spirit down on the floor. "sleep, doll." She smiled sweetly.
Thorn walked back to the elevator, and pulled out a dagger. She Jammed it into the controls and juggled it around. It was Metal, and coursing with electricity. She thanked her father mentally for the rubber hilt.
Next one up here has to walk. She smiled, contented.

Hikari looked at the his master - the Fire God with a pained look on his face. He really...really wanted to fight but he knew that he couldn't take part in a God's fight...he was bounded by the spirits' laws. Cursing silently for his own uselessness, the spirit yelled loudly "...please, Master...Fight it...whatever he's doing to you...it's not REAL!!!" He was met with ignorance and the spirit yelled again "...Magical Book...I know you're watching this...please help us!" He watched helplessly as the Gods and Goddesses were attacked by the Dark Generals.
Turning his head to one side, he prepared to ask the other spirits for advices when his eyes caught sight of a Dark General kidnapping Anaeda. Cursing silently and turning his head, Hikari was torn between helping his God and helping his fellow spirit. Finally, realizing that he wouldn't be able to offer the Gods any help anyway. He turned into a dragonfly and followed the Dark General silently while thinking 'please forgive me, Master Fire...I promise I will help you...I promise'

Well, well, wasn't this getting interesting?
He saw the Shadow's bodyguard - Thorn - sneak away with the green-haired spirit, and a little later, another sleepy looking spirit - probably of that Fire God, judging by the way he threw torn looks at Fire before deciding to go after Thorn - follow them.
Should I go or not...
The Chain Girl probably couldn't take all of them, and Shadow .. had his hands full. Literally.
Besides, it wasn't as if Thorn needed help with two little Spirits - one of whom was sound asleep.
And Gods and Goddesses made better prey at any rate, Chrome thought, his grin widening to manic proportions as the kanji in his eyes rapidly flashed, ready to go into his desired Realm.
Not that he would use it without very good reason. If he died here, he couldn't destroy these hypocrites standing before him, could he now?

Shadow raised an eyebrow as his lovely darling - Thorn kidnapped the spirit. He didn't care about what she would do to a spirit. It made no difference to him anyway. She could torture the spirit to insanity for all he cared. Spirits were not good testing subjects...the Gods were...He smirked and looked at the idiots in front of him again. He laughed as he narrowedly avoid being bit by a wolf. What did those fools think he was? A helpless girl?
'See you soon love, Meet you in the highest tower' He gave a short nod and sent a smile toward his female guard 'Have fun, dear...I'll meet you there' He gave her a mental message and focused on the Gods again.
Laughing malicously, the Shadow asked "...did you use all your tricks 'cause I congratulate you on nearly making me break a sweat...hehehehe"

Thorn Sat down next to the spirit and looked around the room. There were no windows,and without the elevator, no way out but the stairs.
The stairs... They're a hazard if she wakes up.
Gonna bind her, or block the steps?
I don't know.....
C'mon hon, tie her up
Well....
NOW
"Jeezus, fine!" she muttered aloud.
Thorn walked to The slumbering spirit, and laid a hand on her stomach. From the pulse, the poison would likely wear off within the hour. "yeah, good idea."
She found a rope- one connected to the ceiling, coiled down at the floor, likely used to controll who knew what- and cut it off above her own waist. she had a sizeable length of rope, and a girl to tie up. "Bored now" she said with a curling grin.
She didn't want to tie her up entirely, and wished to let her speak, so Thorn Tied the girls arms around the back of a wooden chair, sat her in it, and bound her feet as well. "Someone must have lived here once" she mused aloud. "It's furnished and covered in cobwebs" She didn't like cobwebs. Cobwebs meant things hadn't moved, that nothing had changed. Things had to move for chaos, be in constant disarray. Constantly changing disarray at that. Thorn grimaced and threw an empty chair down the stairs. "That made me feel better."
~~
Thorn moved back to the chair where she had bound the spirit, leaning over her, not realizing her necklace dangling in the girls face. When she did notice, it was too late. she had gotten a dose of smelling salts. she'd wake in short order.

"No!" Billiaon said and reached out to Yusuke and the Shadow the chains then appeared swirling around them, Billiaon got pushed back as he touched them his hand was bleeding immensely from the cuts the chain caused. "Damn it!" Billiaon cursed, then the rooms light died down and a small rumbling could be heard as the earth started to shake.
(~In his Inner World~)
Billiaon opened his eyes seeing a wasteland with billions of swords scattered around, with giant gears clanking at the horizon, fiery ashes that do not emit heat could be seen rising from the ground. "What is this?!" Billiaon said, "Infinite Blade Works." a voice echoed; Billiaon looking around then saw a dark figure in shrouds in front him, "Shadow!" he screamed, "No. I am The God of Earth. Before I perished and reincarnated thyself I sealed part of my power withing this world." the figure said and took a few steps forward. He took of hfis shrouds reviling a older version of Billiaon wearing his battle armor "I been waiting for you." he said with a small smile. "You-You're...me?" Billiaon said, the God nodded and said "Know lets see if thy are able to inherit thy own power." he said as a full blade appeared in the gods hand. "Wait we don't have time Fire...Yusukes in danger! I should help him not fight you, "Do not worry young one I am using what power I have left to stop time while you in her. Know young one lets see if your worthy of thy power!!" the god said and dashed forward and swung his blade at Billiaon.
(I am going to skip the epic fight scene and leave it for later. xD)
Billiaon huffed, standing in front of the god, they both had blood, cuts and bruises all over their bodys, "Its seems thy are worthy of thy power." the god said and look at Billiaon. "-Huff-huff- I told you, I'll do anything for my brothers -huff, puff- and sisters!" Billiaon said as the weapon he has shatters, "Yes, and know you shall inherit thy power and tittle as the God of Earth. I bestow thy power to thee use it wisely Billiaon." the god said and his appearance change to an exact copy of Billiaon, then shattered in a dust like form and took hold and combined with Billioan. "I only have a little power left, you can use thy ability's but they have their cost. I can only maintain your body for about 5 minutes any more than that and thy soul will start to shatter and wither away keep that in mind young one." the gods voice echoed within Billiaons mind.
(-Out of Inner World-)
Billiaon opened his eyes as he looked at the Shadow and Yusuke, with light blue eyes, the rumbling stopped and the water around Billiaon reseeded, as he said "I will not let you take, those who are precious to me again." he said as pieces of his armor appeared on his body....

The wheels of fate have begun to move...
And you're too weak to stop it...
Fate wins this time...
Yusuke's eyes snapped open and he looked around. Fire surrounded him as he began to laugh like a madman. Looking at Karasu, Yusuke smirked "...ah...I must thank you for releasing my chains...It has been a long time since I had the chance to go out..." He looked at the Gods and Goddesses for a long moment before smirking deviously ââŠHello, brothers, sistersâŠlong time no seeâŠhow are you today?...â He pointed at himself and tapped his cheek ââŠhmmâŠI suppose you still havenât remembered everythingâŠyetâŠâ He smirked ââŠdonât worryâŠYusuke-kun still hasnât remembered everything, eitherâŠbut I didâŠâ He gave them a mock bow and continued ââŠlet me introduce myselfâŠIâm Black FireâŠYusukeâs better selfâŠI was born from all of hisâŠnegative emotionsâŠâ He shrugged his shoulder and raised his hand, fire began to cover his right hand.

âHowâs your feeling today, Miss Yuri?â
âHorrible.â
âIs it because of the dream?â
âI guessâŠIâm just tired.
I should go on without feeling anything.â
âI doubt you could. After all, your feeling IS the only thing which keeps you moving right now.â
She made her chains slowed down. The chains were rattling sluggishly on mid air. Ginger-head aura had completely changed. It was dark, black, a deep darkness where it would pull everything in. She looked toward Ginger-head and scratched her head, wondering whether her job finished or not while listening to Ginger-head talk. She was tired and want to rest.
Thump
âHuh?â Suddenly she felt horrendous pain inside her head. It was thumping madly, tried to break out. Blue flower petals were dancing madly around her.
Even in the midst of flowing time, she felt lethargic, spinning around and around. She couldnât even see the heart that was leaving her.
Thereâs a price for a freedom.
Her red eyes began glowing.
âI guess⊠I'm exhausted.â

Karasu returned Yusuke's smirk with an identical one "...ah, Yusuke-kun...don't thank me...it's all because of your effort...I'm just someone who gave you the key but you're the one who opened the door..." He turned his head and looked at the Gods and Goddesses and smiled sweetly "...now that we all have enough members...let's the family reunion begins, shall we?..." He gave Chrome a smile and said "...Chrome-kun...please invite us to your personal dimension...after all, we can't let the Gods and Goddesses feel unwelcome, right?..." He looked at Yuri and nodded his head "...well done...you can rest, Yuri-chan..."

If one of them was being bullied, it was her prerogative to bring the perpetrator to a quiet spiraling doom. Clearing their locker, or failing them in a few classes by messing with their grades on the network. While she was sitting here at the computer now, she was hacking onto the student database, to change the grades of one Kelly Wimyana. She had been making the life of Micheal Norman hell for a few weeks now, starting at the last school dance (at which Jenny had DJ'd) when Kelly broke off her date with Micheal on stage. Jenny was about to click on Kelly's name when she found something of much greater interest to her. Shane Winters, just below Kelly's name on the roster.
How could I possibly have not noticed this ..... She looked at his picture for a few minutes.
Shane Winters was far more than Shane Winters. He was worlds more than Shane Winters. He was the god of metal. She could see it behind his cold metallic eyes of silver. She knew those eyes better than anyone.
Rather, he could see it behind the cold metallic eyes, and he knew those eyes better than anyone. Jenny had inadvertently changed forms while she was ruminating on the situation. She was now he, Jenny was now Jeremy. S/he could change back in a flash, But Jeremy didn't care. No one was there to notice, and the only real problem was that Jenny was enrolled in the school, not Jeremy. But every student knew Jeremy as just another classmate- they never noticed him in the halls. Of course, in class he was always Jenny- well, she was always Jenny. Gender wasn't that important. It would be easy to change back, but why? The only thing that mattered now was finding metal.
Jeremy Quickly changed Kelly's grade and then for revenges sake brought one of Shane's A's down to a C. He'd have no idea.....
Jeremy walked to the door but Jenny walked out, coincidentally changing forms as he/she touched the doorknob. Slamming the door behind her, she looked around. Then laughed at herself. how would she find him now?

She heard that alright.
So, she stayed. She stayed and would see the âperformanceâ until the very end.
âI thank you for giving me a chance to rest. But I will stay.â She had said it with her usual monotone voice. Her glowing eyes began dimmed until it was back to its previous state, empty-looking crimson eyes.
Her gaze moved to the blond guy who had talked to Charcoal-face. The guy was wearing some sort of armor which looked familiar to her. She tilted her head to the left a little. How could she donât realize a guy who resembled a pansy-ass-knight? His power was too concentrated to be missed too.
ââŠif you donât remember then I guess a few hits will jolt your memory, huh?â She heard
ââŠattack.â
Then she released her chains.
Until my soul scattered and my body rotâŠI would continue to fight.

Everything seemed to happen too fast for Cora. When Fire woke up all corrupted, it did not sit well with her. She did not want history to repeat itself.
"Come on guys, you can do it." she called out to them.
The spirit was especially worried for her mistress, who was done for the count after that attack. Indeed, the chains that separated Patricia from Shadow and Yusuke did knock her out. It didn't help that she used a lot of energy. However, she wasn't unconscious. She was trying to wake up, but something prevented her from doing so. In fact, it felt like someone was trying to pull her deep into herself. She soon found herself standing near cliff overlooking a turbulent sea.
"Can you feel it?" asked a voice.
Patricia turned to see a beautiful woman with blue and green hair with silver eyes. She just gapped.
"Huh?" she asked.
The lady smiled.
"Can you feel the energy of the water?"
Patricia nodded before asking, "Who are you?"
"I am you Patricia. I am the Goddess of Water."
"Me? I can't be . . a goddess. I mean, I do feel that I am different from most, but . . ."
"Why are you denying what you feel to be true?"
"Because this kind of stuff doesn't happen in real life."
The lady laughed.
"Awww, the modern world, how very narrow-minded humans have become. Patricia forget what everyone else perceives, what do you feel?"
Patricia thinks before saying instinctively, "I believe anything is possible and that others need my help."
"Well said. I do believe you are worthy and will be able to avoid the mistakes I have made. He needs you and the others. Are you ready to remember?"
"No I am not." Patricia said honestly.
"Correct answer. No one is ever truly ready for anything. However I do have faith that you will be able to bear the burden of which you must carry in order to overcome the shadow. Take my hand and we'll see if you can overcome it." the goddess offered.
Patricia hesitated before taking it.
((Skip))
Patricia gasped and tried to find her bearings. The emotional roller coaster she went through was nothing she ever experienced before. She looked at the goddess and saw sadness reflected there, but there was also hope.
"My child, you have passed this test, but there is more to come. Wake up!"
With that Patricia opened her eyes just as Shadow ordered an attack. Immediately she stood up just in time for chains to appear. This time she instinctively placed a hand on the wall, causing more water to spurt out of the water sprays on the ceiling to create a wall of protection to prevent the chains from attack her and the others. They died down after that first attack and she looked at Shadow.
"You know Kurasu, I pity you. All this fighting is only going to cause pain for both sides. What is your true goal? Do you think fighting will solve all your problems." she said before looking at Yusuke.
"Yusuke, if you're still there, try to remember, we're family. Please don't do this. I love you, please wake up!" she pleaded.

Yusuke laughed deviously and said "...Aww...little Patricia...so cute!...but sorry...your boyfriend is not available right now...call again later, okay?..." He winked but frowned slightly as Yuri began to attack them. It was not like he was afraid of them or anything but he was still a little exhausted from earlier, when he tried to take over Yusuke's body and beside, he looked around, mentally counted his enemies. '...hmm...Earth, Metal, Wood, Water and I haven't counted those spirits yet...hmm...not good...and I still need to wake up the rest of my army and then find my weapon...' He shook his head and raised his hand to stop Yuri "Enough...general Yuri...Let's go...it's enough for today..." He gave Karasu a glance and a small nod, silently sent him a mental thought 'We will attack them next time...Let's go back to our castle...'

She had prepared to attack the Canned-knight when Ginger told her to stop. Her chains stopped halfway from attacking, she sighed. It was her only opportunity to defeat the gods and goddesses while theyâre weaponless. But it looked like Ginger had another plan in mind.
âFine then.â
The countless chains were dragged back from whatever-it-came-from along with its previous âvictimâ. The hallway which full of corpses now empty from any of it, only the blood remains.
âSigillum.â She whispered softly and her sigil glowed for a while. Once its glow dimmed her eyes color were the shades of yellow again. She had ripped the end of her dress a little to make a makeshift eye-patch, to cover her sigil.
âBut you owe meâŠa lot.â

Angel was scared yet comforted by the animals that stood around Yusuke and Karasu. A wolf jumped at the boy, but was knocked back by chains that had begun to appear. Angel, herself, was about to jump into the fight until she noticed how afraid and unprepared she was. She jumped back to stand by Patricia.
"I'm still confused, Patricia. And I'm honestly scared and I have no clue what's going on and I don't know how those animals got in here..." she trailed off, realizing that she was babbling and looked up at Patricia. "You seem to have some sort of clue what is going on."
Robin ran to stand by her mistress and realized that she was talking to the Water goddess. She tugged on Angel's arm softly. "Angel, I think that the goddess is busy." She then turned to the Patricia and whispered to her over Angel's shoulder. "She seems to be remembering more slowly than the rest of you."
That was when Angel snapped. She turned to Robin in anger, but her eyes looked as if she was about to cry. "Look, I don't know who you are, I just called animals into my school, my best friend is about to pass out and she also makes the sprinklers go on. What the heck am I supposed to believe here?" Angry tears had started to silently slide down her face and she wiped them away. "I don't know what to do."

What exactly did we do to the Shadow... Billiaon thought, then chains where released, but water blocked them it was Patricia the Water Goddess, she had protected us. The shadow and Black fire where about to leave, Like hell I'll let you leave Billiaon thought but then a wave of exhaustion and pain took over Billiaon, his armor cracked as he panted, "I think I'm at my limit." I whispered. I looked over to the others "Uhg." I said and held my head and the armor dissipated into a crystal like dust, "Is everyone...okay?" I said knowing what they would answer.

Maka stood to the side near the other Spirits as everything happened, unable to fight for... reasons. She winced as the Chain general made to attack the Earth God, but was refrained by The Water Goddess sheilding them all with a waterfall of sorts. It died down after the general stopped attacking, and the dark forms began to retreat.
Maka rushed to the Earth God as his armor dissolved, falling away like the pixie dust her being was partly created of.
Is everyone...okay?" he was asking. Maka shushed him.
"Everyone's fine.." Maka glanced around, seeing everyone looking as well as they could after such a scene. She quickly thought back to all the conversations she had over heard, but could muster up a name for the Earth God. Maka mentally groaned, knowing that would make things that much more awkward.
"Master, If I remember you well enough, you want to go after those dark ones, fight, try and make things right, help everyone do everything.. But you can't, alright?" Maka attempted to guide him to a chair, still surveying the scene, trying to find out what felt so amiss- other then the obvious, of course. It was something deeper, but she couldn't figure out what.
"You discovered a key part of your powers today," Maka explained simply. "Usually, when you battle, you don that armor. I think your remembering at a steady pace, faster then you should be, and that's okay regarding recent events, but I don't want you to be alarmed at anything."
She flipped her hair over her shoulder and looked over to see the Wood Goddess crying. Maka sighed, Oh Dear, what a mess we really are in. I'm thinking The Gods and Goddess should talk things out, and I need to speak with the other Spirits... *sigh*

Chrome had taken his leave right after the spirit was kidnapped, losing interest as soon as the brat told them to rest. On the way out of the corridor, he met a person he vaguely remembered as his Maths teacher, who gaped at his appearance, making Chrome realise blood had splattered onto his clothes and face.
He wouldn't have had to resort to drastic measures if the man had not screamed his name, commanding him to stop.
"I would never have expected you of all people to be in a fight! Follow me to the Principal's office at once!"
Chrome was not in a good mood, and it was the teacher's own fault for aggravating him further. Chrome had no wish of being dragged to the Principal and be expelled, not when things were just beginning to get somewhat interesting. Besides, the other General and the brat whose commands he could not seem to completely disobey had already committed a small scale massacre, and this teacher was wailing at him about a fight? Idiot ...
So Chrome did the only thing he could, swinging his trident at the clueless teacher , making sure to kill him at one go. He was pissed and random-Maths-teacher was annoying, and he needed to vent his frustration, but he still didn't want to be tied up with one lousy mortal. He had better things to do with his time. Like figuring out what the Hell just happened back in the corridor, and why he couldn't ditch the brat's commands.
He wandered out on the roof again, choosing a vantage point from where everything going in the corridor was visible, but he was not.
Anaeda Sashewna
Anaeda blinked groggily, trying to open her eyes. She still felt tired, but for some reason she was suddenly much, much less tired than before.
Maybe because I have had some sleep .. I fell asleep ... ? Where's the Goddess ...?
Looking around, she couldn't see any of them. She appeared to be in a room, and ...
WHY THE HELL AM I TIED TO A FREAKING CHAIR?
Senses going into panic mode, she jerked her body around as much as possible, trying to find a way to get her hands out of the ropes, failing to notice the other girl sitting calmly.

But you can't, alright?" she said, It was true also he wanted to help make everything okay again, but he couldn't, "O...kay. You look familiar..." Billiaon said as she finished talking, "what should...we do?... know?" Billiaon said with a pant, the other gods are also looking quite exhausted and the spirits are... well you know... Well I just wait around as I moved into a sitting stance, trying to get his stamina back...
âHappy birthday, Miss Yuri. Times sure goes fast, without realizing it, youâre already twelve.â

âDid you know? Right before your mother giving birth to you she did some strange thing.â

Yuri blinked. She was outside the school. She didnât remember when she went outside or how she managed to move her legs despite the fatigue she felt but somehow she didnât care. Looking around she saw the pineapple head guy killed somebody, with a trident, and then just left the body. She stared at the corpse. Her chains shot up from the corpse and dragged it to the darkness, only the blood remained.
A pain bloomed on in her sigil and she fell to her knee. Her short breath was uncontrollable but she refused to yield, even thought the conscious started to waning.
