Nioki blushed slightly as he came swiftly up behind her.She could feel herself floating away as he rubbed her shoulders.She gave a small squeak as all this excitement was making her nervous."Y-uou.....are in history books?Thats....really cool."Her hair was laying over her shoulders as she felt like going to sleep.She shook it off thinking it would be dumb to fall asleep in the library.I dont know how Im going to get out of this,but somehow Im going to.For his.....and my sake......I want to be happy.I want to live with him.....while he....holds me in his arms.She blushed even more as his hand went over her chest,she could hear her own heart beating in her chest.She knew he could feel it to......though it wasnt real.She placed her hand over his holding him to her chest.She didnt care if her powers went bonkers now,she just wanted to be.......forever with him.

Kenzi:
Kenzi looked up at Ananda and then thought for a moment, as he held back more blood but insted of it staying in his throat it spewed out ofhis closed teeth when he could n't hold it anymore. He opened his mouth as he looked at the gorund, it falling like water does when you spread your hands when they're filled with it. He grabbed her leg and teleported them to the library as a sign of approval. He grabbed at his sides...the daggers had punctured something important though he did not know what all he knew was that he needed to be fixed quickly or else he would have to give up on his life and would die that way. "H-h-hurry!...p-please!" he would hate himself later for that, but he couldn't keep himself from it. He grabbed at his stomach and felt the blood there too. He took off his shirt and looked at himself...it was disgusting the amount of times he was punctured...he would do as his brother had but backwards one they were finished. This was too close of a call for that, and it might end up becoming the last time he came so close to dying...because it might abtually be that time for him. He and Suka were definitley evenly matched.

Ananda teleported them swiftly to the library as soon as she heard him. She spotted Rille sitting against the wall outside almost immediately. Running over to her, she grabbed her hand and half-dragged her over to Kenzi. "Do something quick! I think he's dying." She gave her cousin an urgent look.
Rille nodded, her hands already starting to glow. This time, she didn't bother to ask for permission, but knealt down beside Kenzi, placing her hands lightly on his chest. "Breathe," she said tersely to Ananda. She struggled for a moment to force her healing light into Kenzi. It seemed like there was something resisting her, but after a second's battle it gave way and they were surrounded in her usual cocoon of green light. After a few minutes, it faded. Rille swayed on her heels, falling back to sit heavily on the ground. "Um, Nan? By the way, you were right." She handed her cousin her notebook.
Ananda read the notes Rille had made, her frown deepening with every line. "Rille," she said slowly in the calm voice that meant she was really upset, "why didn't you tell me about this before? I could've taken us to the hospital just as easily."
Rille sighed, looking away from her cousin. "I'm fine, really. I just need to go to the hospital and convince them to give me a few pills, and that'll be the end of it."

Kenzi:
Kenzi breathed heavily as if he had just been running for miles, and sat there straight up-the adrenaline still not yet settled. He looked at the ground and tried to slow his breathing as he grabbed at his now mostly healed wounds...Yuri's lightning attacks did not heal. He moved his hands slowly away and looked from one of them to the other as they spoke. "Right about what?...Pills? What pills?" he looked from one to the other and then stood. Once on two feet he lost balance nearly immediately and fell back down.... He just left himself there a moment as he tried to figure out why he couldn't move...sighing ashamed of himself when he realized what it was. He opened his link to their minds freely and then as they thought his Mare energy grew. He stood again and held at his side for some reason, looking behind him to see the tail was not there...he never seemed to catch that his tail was actually there before it was gone again. Possibly it was not to be seen by him at all. He would never take the time to worry aobut that though, for he always had something better to do-such as to investigate the cousins' problems.

Zasz nodded..
"yes, i am in history books, look up almost any war and you will find a reference to me...well within the past 600 years it will be me..." he keeps his hand on her heart, feeling the beat, the mechanical beat...he doesnt mind though...its still there, he knows that she doesnt have to be totally human to have a soul and to make him happy...he just wants her to be happy. he kisses her softly on the cheek, smiling...
"We will figure something out"

Ananda threw the notebook back onto Rille's stack of books. "My problem was a leech, that feeds on any kind of power. Not just teleporting. Healing too, it would appear. Basically, my darling cousin now has the same problem as I did. And there's no known cure for it."
"Known. By one author." Rille's voice was defensive. "I'm not finished researching yet. And there are pills, treatment for the symptoms. I just need to talk a doctor into giving them to me." She stood, staggering slightly.
Ananda slipped one arm quickly around Rille's waist. "Slow down, kid. You're in no state to go walking anywhere."
Rille pulled away. "You worry too much, I'll be alright." I hope. That healing took more out of me than it should have. She didn't quite feel right about telling Ananda she'd be fine, since she didn't know. It was awfully close to being a lie.

Nioki stops for a moment looking at a book lying open on the other side of the table.She pulls it towards her and stares down at the page."I wonder where this one came from?"On the page were strange writings,..maybe another language?Her mind went completely blank as for some reason she could understand it all.She gasped and sort of threw the book backwards in shock.Nioki brought the book close to her face and realized...it was familiar.It was the song that Mioki had taught her?!"I think I may have found the answer?!"
Father once said to me
many months ago
a demon hand will defend
Mother said one day
there is more that we must
know a mortal hand will sustain
Two hands together incomplete unknown
balance in union and the gate will open
Go my children go go to crimson flames
so we can save our children
the lights of memory remain
She sat there puzzled for a moment as she sang the song outloud.Her voice once again of the sweetest thing.Father once said to me
many months ago
a demon hand will defend
Mother said one day
there is more that we must
know a mortal hand will sustain
Two hands together incomplete unknown
balance in union and the gate will open
Go my children go go to crimson flames
so we can save our children
the lights of memory remain[i]Wait children we must save them?It sounds like what I was talking about to Zasz?Maybe.......I have to learn fire magic?Some how it must open some gate that can cure me?!![i/]She stood up fast hugging Zasz tighter and tighter."I got it I got it!I have to learn fire magic and open some gate!I think...no wait Im sure of it!!"She was jumping up and down excited about her wish coming true.

Zasz smiles at Nioki broadly...he wraps his arms around her and hugs her back, her head in his chest, he cant help but smile...
"Thats amazing Nioki, simply perfect...but learning fire magic is not an easy task, its a hard element to master...learning to manipulate flame is not that difficult, but learning to create it from nothing is an entirly different story...it will take time and practice...but i am sure you are more than willing to go through the trials...espessially knowing i will be right next to you the whole time..." he kisses the top of her head softly...

Nioki nods her head as his lips press against her head."Yeah I understand,though I dont think I know anyone who..knows fire manipulation."Her eyes droop a little as she feels like taking a nap.Nioki gives a small yawn and streches out her arms."Except....I think Shino knows some stuff,but she is working on control and I dont think it would be safe.I bet she could teach me the basics though."She smiled and held Zasz's hand lightly by her side.Loving thoughts were rushing through her head,she couldnt belive how much she loved him!She merely gave a small peaceful smile and starts to walk along the the floor and stops at the enterance."Where do you want to go?Back to the dorm or somewhere else?"

Zasz shrugs to her
" i say dorm, you look to be a little tired, i think you should go to bed.." he walks to her and stands in front of her smiling...he lays a hand on her cheek.
"You have no idea how wonderful you are do you Nioki...you are perfect..and even if you didnt change into human, i would still love you just as much as i do now.." he kisses her softly on the lips, only for a moment...he simply smiles at her..
What is happening to me, i never used to be this outgoing, i never would have done that before Nioki...she is really changing me, and so far, its all for the better.

Nioki smiled and tilted her hand agaisnt his hand.Then blushing,feels his lips against her's."I .......never was evil.....just tainted.I wanted to be loved and my strive to achieve this brought me to you.For that I am beyond blessed and I hope to stay this way as long as I can."She thought about his words for a moment and shook her head slightly."I know you would still love me,......but in a way I feel that you would.I want you to be happy,....and for us to be a normal boy and girl together.Though everyone here you cant call normal.I just......want to be human and rid myself of my worries."After all the general still has power over me.With one switch of a button he can emit a life threatening virus into both of us.I dont....want that to happen.

Kenzi:
He watched them quietly as he thought and then stood loking down and realising then that he still had no shirt on. He sighed quietly at this and then shoved his hands into his pockets. "Could I try and reduce the leech's size a little bit for you, Rille?-If I said that right." he looked at each of them, unsure of what exactly was going on and he opened his hand, a book coming from one of the farther shelves, the title was simply 'Black Goddess' he looked down at it and opened it, forgetting that he was waiting for a reply. It had come to him, the thought that possessed him to do this, so quickly that he had little time to decide what he would do. He did not say anything to signal hi confusion at his own actiaons, but he opened the book with one hand and with that ame hand fliped through the pages to find what he needed. Multiple pictures of a four-armed female deity with red eyes were placed on the pictures. A lot of them were of her standing on another body. Around her neck was what seemed to be a necklce of skulls, but with the blur of some of the pages in the short amount of time he left them on it he gave little time for the realization of what they were. He didn't stop as he waited for the reply, and thought only about what he was now looking for...

Rille stared at him for a moment. "Um..." She sighed. "Why not. Go ahead, it's worth a try." Heck, at this point, I'm willing to try just about anything. If it keeps me off those drugs...some of them looked like real nasties. She peered with curiosity at his book, and walked a little unsteadily around to one side of him, looking over his shoulder at the pages as they flickered by. He was turning them too fast for her to read anything that was on them, or to get more than a brief glimpse of some of the pictures.
Ananda drummed her fingers against her hip, frowning slightly. "May I suggest that if you two are going to muck around with this thing, you should go somewhere more comfortable to do it? So that if...or maybe I should say when...one or both of you collapses, I won't have to drag you to a bed?" Rille's already about to collapse, it wouldn't take much work. And Kenzi was in pretty bad shape a minute ago, I don't know how much healing he really got.

Kenzi:
He continued to flip through the pages, listening to their thoughts and taking in their words as they both spoke. When he felt Rille looking over his shoulder at his book he slowed his flipping of the pages slightly and noticedthat even though he'd not done uit purposely this was the area of her biography that he needed. "I have to get back to healthy Mare energy levels first anyway...we don't need to rush or anything do we?" He looked over the pages quickly and took in half of the words that he read, searching for only the capitalized words. That's when he found it. The pages read where his finger then pointed:
She and goddess Durga battled Raktabija
who could reproduce himself from each drop of blood spilled.
The Black goddess, Kali, drank all of the blood
so no blood spilled
and she thereby won the battle and killed Raktabija.
He read this and then thought for a moment. Her other name was Black Kali, and this could also be spelt Cally so there were obviously multiple ways to say it. He thought for a moment, earlier on that page she was callled Sara, so that opened another web of names she could have gone under...assuming she did not make one up on her own. He sighed and shut the book with a loud thump. "...Mother..." he said the name in a sentimental tone. He sighed again and set the book down on a nearby table. Why did this evil blood-drinking deity remind him of his mother? What did they have in common...?

"No, there's no hurry," Rille said absently, still reading over his shoulder. "Durga and Kali? Who are they?"
"Hindu goddesses," Ananda replied automatically. "Though I dunno if they're the same ones that book's talking about." While she wasn't usually interested in history, she had always been interested in the thuggee cult of India, and their dark goddess. "But what do they have to do with anything?" I thought they were the same person....er, goddess. All the books I've read talk about Kali Durga, not one or the other.
Rille looked up at Kenzi, puzzled. "Mother?" She repeated his last word, but with a questioning tone. Surely he wasn't suggesting that one of those goddesses was...related to him?
