"I'll show you weak!!!" Lunora snarled, summoning a large ball of fire above her head.
Luke scooted away from his sister, and close enough to subtly whisper to Jethrow. "She's going into her fox form. She's going to be very very strong so watch out."

"I will have my revenge."  Demetri raised his eyebrows and crossed his arms, smirking still. It appeared that the older brother, mind older, was even frightened of this little fox demon. She's rather feisty, isn't she? he mused, changing his stance so that he could anticipate her attack. Fire was no problem for him; he could easily control it. Not to mention my secret little trick. Careful, you might make the wrong person suffer... There is much to learn in this world. To learn it, you must realize you know nothing.  "Lunora!" Jethrow said in a strong, commanding voice. "If you kill him, we won't know where Anya is. Be careful with your actions!"

Lunora swung the fireball down upon herself, a tremendous roar echoing from the ball of flames. What emerged was a great white fox, 6 large tails swishing behind. The beast loked to the wizard and growled, meaning she'd avoid killing him. For now.
Luke paled a little at his sister's alternate form. "When did she get so powerful?"

There is much to learn in this world. To learn it, you must realize you know nothing. Jethrow shook his head gravely. "I'm not sure, Luke, but I think this is a good distraction. Can you track Anya down by anything? Energy, scent, anything? She needs to be found. I don't think Demetri had completely killed her, but it's likely she's in critical condition. Or worse," he said ominously. Demetri was good at mind control, and if Anya wasn't close to death, she was ready to kill them all.

Luke nodded and stepped away from Jethrow. He summoned a massive ice crystal formation around himself, turning into his wolf form. Once transformed, the wolf took off, following Anya's scent.

"I will have my revenge." Demetri watched as the wolf took off. Fester, prepare yourself. An old friend is coming for you, he sent to the dragon, raising his eyebrows at the fox. "Down kitty; why don't we take this a little slower, alright?" he said tauntingly, holding his hand out and widening his smirk as a wall of black flames began. "They always say don't fight fire with fire, but I always say something hot needs something hotter." If everything were as it seemed, life would be a dream.  Anya rolled onto her side, shivering a little. She opened her eyes and blinked up at the ceiling of... A cage? Sitting up, she put a hand to her head. Where am I? she thought, Getting to her feet and stumbling against the side of the cage, prison, thing. She looked up and around, but didn't see any openings. "Fester?! Demetri?!" she called loudly. What was going on? There is much to learn in this world. To learn it, you must realize you know nothing. Jethrow watched as Luke set off, and turned to face the fight before him. The wizard took a few shuffling steps backwards, unsure of how he was going to end this fight. Demetri was clearly content with taunting Lunora, and Lunora's anger was too great for even the great wizard to completely control her. Perhaps I should have kept Luke here, instead.

The fox snarled. "Kitty?! I'll show you KITTY!" the beast let out a deafening roar, bearing her fangs that were ready for him. She was momentarily deterred by the black flames, but the fox demon seemed to smirk.
Fester snorted awake at Anya's calling. He slithered down to a side and cut a window for her to see out of. He yawned a little and slithered into her prison just to check on her. 'What is it, little fairy?'

"I will have my revenge." Oi vey, Demetri thought, taking a step back. She hadn't even noticed his pick-up line! ((Yes, he really is that egotistical...)) Demetri watched her bare her fangs, and he raised his arm, allowing the fire to rise up over the stone ruins behind him. Three, great dragons formed out of the fire, snapping their fangs at the fox demon angrily and circling around the three of them. Demetri had almost forgotten about his brother, and he snapped his fingers, a thick, thorny rose bush creating a prison around the wizard. "Wouldn't want you to miss this show," he called out to the older man. If everything were as it seemed, life would be a dream. Anya crossed her arms and tilted her head at the dragon. "Why am I in here? Wasn't the point was for me to learn my demon powers? I can't really do that inside a prison," she pointed out logically, shrugging and looking around. Maybe she could work on her fire power, but all she would be able to do was throw fireballs at the wall and bounce them back and forth. "Plus, you're beginning to annoy me," she said bitterly, remembering how she'd fallen asleep: being squeezed half to death by the stupid dragon. There is much to learn in this world. To learn it, you must realize you know nothing. Jethrow looked around at his new prison with a sigh. Would his brother never learn? Something so simple would be easy enough to get out of, but would he let Demetri know that so soon in the fights? He decided against it. After Lunora had exhausted herself, Jethrow would make sure Demetri was taken by surprise, and hopefully Luke would be back by then with Anya. The three of them, plus Searan would need to be together for them to leave the dimension. Thinking of Searan, Jethrow looked around, but the creature had disappeared.

'You ungrateful little insect! You should be thanking me for not craming you into a block and forgetting about you! Instead I made you this nice little room. Now show some respe--!!' Fester was interrupted as he was yanked from the hole by his tail.
Lunora snarled at the dragons, snapping back before breathing in a large gust of air. The air sucked one of the dark dragons into Lunora's throat, which was quickly retaliated against Demetri in a very violent blast.
Luke had reached Anya's prison and had dragged Fester away from Anya. The large twin tailed wolf and the golden dragon began to wrestle for their lives, snapping their fangs and clawing at each other.

"I will have my revenge." Demetri watched the dragon coming at him, and the other two knocked the the one flying away, and it dissipated into thin air. "It's gonna take more than that, sweetheart!" he called, throwing several whirling fireballs at her, smirking as the black flames cracked against her own fire-covered fox form, being absorbed. So he really couldn't fight fire with fire without getting a bigger fire. He moved a large stone from the ruins behind him, tossing it in the air and watching as it spiraled towards the demon. If everything were as it seemed, life would be a dream. Anya yelped in surprise as the dragon disappeared, and frowning in a determined manner, she spread her little-used wings. A convenience of being a hybrid: she could hide her wings at will, a demonic trait that fairies weren't given the convenience of. She hovered a few feet up before hesitantly flying to the window Fester had disappeared from. She held onto the edge of the window, looking out with a gasp. Was that... Luke?!

Willow sighed and looked over her shoulder at her companion, rolling her eyes at the...rather...creepy demon. He was walking, stupidly, with a knife in his hands. It's no matter to me if he gets killed by himself, the woman thought, turning to face front again. She'd picked him up during some of her travels, and healed some wounds he'd had. Rather extreme wounds, truth be told, across his back and chest. She hadn't asked what had caused them, and instead offered to take him to a place where he could train under weapons masters. And I can train under the famous Jethrow Dante, she mused, looking up towards the spires of the castle that she was headed towards. There were only a few more rows of trees until they reached the castle...
Zuuko continued tossing the throwing knife he held in his hand up and down, side to side, up and down, side to side, etc. What better for him to do to occupy himself? He was stuck with some annoying elf who acted like she was his nanny or something. Always telling him how he was going to train under brilliant weapons masters. He had yet to speak a word to her, unless you count screaming in agony. His attack on the king hadn't gone very well, and he had to admit his ego had been shot by the failure. Maybe a little extra training would even do some good for him.

"Sweetheart?!" the fox roared again, breathing out a large plume of fire, six dragons sprouting from it. They were much larger than Demetri's and looked like they could handle the young wizard's dragons easily. The dragons first took notice for the dark fire barreling towards their master and formed a shield, splitting the dark fire and dispelling it.
Luke and Fester wrestled relentlessly, snapping and clawing. Luke soon took ahold of Festers coils and threw him into the black abyss. The dragon fell, too exhausted to fly back. Luke then scratched Anya's prison wall open and offered his muzzle to climb onto him. He was going to give her a ride. He was big enough for sure.

"I will have my revenge." "So unobservant," the wizard said to himself as the large stone he'd throne went right through the heads of the dragons, dispelling them as well. With another smirk, he held his hand out, palm down, towards Lunora, and the ground beneath her began to crack and shake. There were no blocks underneath the one she stood on, and if she were to fall, she'd most likely reappear in the regular dimension; Jethrow was sure to have only brought her mentally into the realm. He was like that, always trying to keep people alive. But brother, this was one enemy you'd have been best off killing during our duel. If everything were as it seemed, life would be a dream. Anya watched with a smirk as Fester was easily defeated. It was no great stretch of the imagination that she disliked this dragon, after all, he'd raked through her mind and put her unconscious in the same sitting. The wall of her prison was destroyed and she flew back down from the window to hover a little above and a little away from Luke's head. Jethrow had come to rescue her, but didn't she want to learn her powers? After all, she hadn't known that she could destroy snakes with fire until she'd had snakes thrown at her by Demetri. He'd said Jethrow didn't want her to know her powers, but why? Could she even trust that old wizard anymore? She looked down at Luke, who was offering to give her a ride, and bit her lip, deliberating. Finally, she decided- and went shooting off into the air, in the direction of what was clearly a fight.

The fox moved out of the way of the rock and noticed the ground. The fox quickly made a lunge out to a safer distance, yet reverting to her smaller human form. She still had the six tails swishing behind her, her face and wrists bearing the glowing red marks of a fire master.
((Reference: The Inari's Beads Markings))
Luke watched Anya fly away and it was easy for him to catch up. He was sure to keep an eye on her as he ran alongside her, wanting to make sure she was safe. What he didn't see was a few bloody gold claws slowly crawling back up to end the wolf.

"I will have my revenge." Demetri tilted his head as she morphed back to her human form and he waved his arm backwards sharply, all flames disappearing under his command. "Why exactly are we fighting?" he asked tauntingly, walking towards the wolf girl. "You're impressive, I'll give you that. But I can make you greater. I can make your name go down in history; I can hone your powers until you are revered by anyone, demon and human alike. You will be feared, and loved, by all!" Anya, you know what to do, the wizard thought as he felt her consciousness approaching. He sent a visual of just what she should do, and went back to concentrating on his battle. If everything were as it seemed, life would be a dream. Anya looked down and saw that Luke was following her... But that there were claws coming as well. Fester she realized, but she turned away. She could afford no alliance to either. She picked up her speed, and veered around the danger zone that Demetri had clearly marked with the ruins; she was sure they were new, as oxymoronic as that was. She overshot from the heads of the battlers, and landed before the cage Jethrow had been contained in. "You guys actually came," she said, looking up with her new, crimson colored eyes. There is much to learn in this world. To learn it, you must realize you know nothing. Jethrow watched, part in horror and part in fascination, as the battle swept on, while he himself was trapped inside rosebush bars. There was a sudden noise, and a figure alighted only feet from him. There was a crimson glow in the dark as they approached, and the voice that came from the dark was chillingly familiar to him. "Anya," he said quietly, frowning as she approached. "Anya, you've listened to his words, now listen to mine. There was good reason for everything, and you must understand both sides of this story; do not do anything rash."
