Welcome to Gaia! ::

"No, she must have a reason for it, I'm sure."

Typhon swung his kodachi around to destroy the paper that was flying through the air, but there were too many and they continued coming at him faster than he can cut them down, "Blast it!"

"You've been a trouble-maker, you need punishment." The old lady said with a grim look on her face.

"What the..?! You're insane!!" Typhon wanted to move forward, but the paper formed a giant hand and grabbed him around the waste. Then it lifted him off the ground, "Crud!!"

"..I am the one who took care of Typhon back when he was a baby.." She sighed, "I took care of him for four years, and later I discover what he has been doing. I was disgusted. I was going to let someone else handle him, but then he suddenly appears at my doorstep, so I changed my mind."

"What?! That's a load of bull!" Typhon tried to push himself out of the giant hand.

"You only say that because you don't remember," Then she glared at Reia, "And you, you should stay out of this."

Typhon landed on his feet, and stood with his kodachi in front of him, "You want a fight, so you're getting it..and you're going down!"

"Stupid boy..someone would have come for you sooner or later," She stood up with a handful of the slips, then she turned her attention back to Reia, "If you're going to help that delinquent, then you should be punished too."

Typhon looked at Reia, Oh man.. She doesn't know...that part about me being a delinquent was actually true...heheh ((insert anime sweatdrop xD )). But that old hag is taking this issue too far..

"I think she knows what she's getting into. It's two against one old fart," Typhon grinned.

"What the heck?" Typhon raised an eyebrow, astonished that Reia was talking to him through their minds. Then he nodded, responding to Reia's advice, "Yah, I know. I've encountered one too many people who were like that..."

The old lady sent papers flying across the room, which attached to the walls and created a barrier to prevent anyone from leaving, "I can deal with you two easily."

The slips of paper divided, each down the middle, and then forming another full sheet of paper. They flew in a circular motion all around them, sticking themselves against the wall from the floor up until the entire room was covered in paper. The three were left inside the darkness.

"Jeeze!" Typhon moved forward to attack, and mentally calculated the distance between himself and the wall behind the old lady so he wouldn't run into it if she had moved. Apparently it was as he thought: the old lady was not in the spot he expected her to be in. He touched the wall with his knuckles to verify where the wall was, and to his surprise the wall parted, allowing a malicious red light to flood the room. While Typhon had his back turned, the old lady came up from behind him and pushed him into the light, which made it seem like he vanished as soon as the light enveloped him. He spread his wings out since he was falling, and tried to fly back up to the entrance, but when he looked he couldn't see it, "Oh crud..."

The old lady was wearing a small bracelet charm that was glowing in the same distinctive red color as the area Typhon was pushed into. She turned to face Reia, "You're next."

The old woman raised her hand, and a shield made of paper formed in front of it, "You do not stand a chance..."

Typhon could hear the voices from the room, and he followed them and careful reached out to feel his way around. Finally, he touched the boundary of the wall and pulled himself back inside the room.
