Welcome to Gaia! ::

" Get the survivors out." calmly he placed himself infront of her, his body tense as he readied himself for an attack. " ill be careful, luv.. but i am staying to buy you time. take them out the back way, for the love of the ages.. dont let anyone be seen by this creature." he had no doubt.. this dark angel-creature would hunt anyone it laid eyes on until it killed them. his thoughts were stunned to silence as the creature stirred.. speaking for the first time.

" You will cause no more pain." Amphitrion turned away from the pair, his gaze locked in the direction of the others.. eyes narrowing in thought. there had to be a few in there.. he would destroy them, then return for the alpha pair. taking a step forward he froze as teeth sank into his shoulder, a large silver Jackal tearing at his flesh with wild jerks. snaping his wings open he dislodged the beast, slaming it with the heel of his boot as he spun a round house kick. the wound in his should started to heal, the shirt repairing itself as the blood faded away. His attention drawn, he turned to face the beast.

Asa growled as the boot knocked him away, feeling his ribs snap as he skidded a few feet back. the damage he had done, even in this weak state, should have been fatal.. instead, the boy simply healed.. swinging his head towards the mated pair he met each of their gazes, a silent demand to run. he had lost his pack.. but, seeing as he was still alive.. perhaps he could save what was left of his kind. Aeryn.. Relic.. i trust unto you the care of the Idolian survivors.. lead them well, take them far from here and forget the clan name that damned so many.

Eyes narrowing Amphitrion twitched his wings, watching Asa's reaction.. and relaxing. the wolf was far more injured than he had let the others see. with steady steps he closed the distance between them, walking by without a second glance as the earth above started to crumble down on them.. Amphitrion pulling the building to its destruction. satisfied his job was done he faded away.. intent on hunting the surviving children and alpha pair after he collected the hearts in this building.

Asa stood staring at the far wall.. shifting as he fell to his knees. from his chest a silver dagger's hilt protruded, the blade peeking out of his back with a cheerful shine. there had been no pause, no exerted gestures.. this being didnt kill for enjoyment or revenge, it killed for a impersonal reason.. he hoped, whomever made it one day had to face it in battle. his body tipped, fell.. and was caught, lifted into Relic's arms as the jackal rushed him out of the falling building. he was not dead, but it was close.. his eyes closed and his breathing all but halted. only his heart, exposed by the hole in his chest and clearly punctured, kept raceing.. as if fallowing a beat only it could hear. " Mim.."

" I am taking him to the healer." Relic said softly, to his mate and the survivors gathered outside. " it is not safe for us in groups, my mate.. the children must be put to safty, and we can rejoin at the healers place."

Heart heavy Relic watched her go, waiting until she was safely away before he hefted the clan alpha onto his shoulder. Asa was a ancient.. proved it by fighting even as his heart was shredded. if something took him down without much effort, there truely was no way to rebuild their clan openly. revenge twisted in his heart as he carried the Ancient away, his gaze downcast as his home crumbled behind them. Asa was the father of the Idolians.. he had lost his children, and his pack.. he could only pray he had something left to survive for, or they truely would loose everything. he would go to Phantom.. and watch over the elder until Aeryn could help him.

Behind them the underground club collapsed.. becoming a tomb to the bodies below, every single one.. man, woman, and child.. missing their hearts. Like the club not two hours earlier, this one was soon surrounded by squaking humans and screaming sirens.. their machines biting at the earth even as the humans stared down with sorrow. they all knew.. what they would find under the ruble.
