Welcome to Gaia! ::

Jacob twitched as lulubell ordered him about. This wasn't going to be easy if he didn't block himself off. He needed to stop being Jacob now...he needed to become the noah of bonds. His eyes, though still a soft golden color, became icy...cruel. There was no recognition in them. This was the jacob who'd slaughtered his family in cold blood...this was the jacob who took countless lives. Jacob's dancing flames shot out through the room, killing numerous lower level finders and weak exorcists, even a few members of the science department. He turned and set his eyes on the others. A sadistic smile spread across his face. This jacob...enjoyed the torture and killing he was about to begin.

"eeny...meeny....miny...moe" he counted them off and landed on Lavi. "...guess i'll start with eyepatch over here..." he grinned darkly and prepared himself for some fun. "I wonder bunny boy...how will your hammer stand up to imagination?" he asked and charged in, the fire circling jacob took form and became a sword and shield. Jacob was fast, and he used the shield to shove at Lavi, the fires hot and burning, then he swung the sword at the red haired man's leg, hoping to cut it off...or at least render him slow.

Cross swore and immediately hobbled backwards on his crutches, "Sil, you can do this. I know you can. Concentrate, you've fought her before," he did all he could to reassure his apprentice.

He knew this would be a tough fight for Sil, just because of what happened last time. This was possibly the worst situation for them all, with him out of commission and Lulubell of all the Noah being one of the ones to be sent for them. Cross hadn't had much contact with Jacob, not in battle, and he wasn't completely certain of what the boy was capable. He felt weak and defenseless in that moment, and he gripped his crutches tightly; he hadn't had this feeling a quite some time. Under his breath he was already calling Maria to him. Even if he couldn't use Judgment, he could do something to help defend the others for a little while.

He watched as Jacob attacked Lavi and began assessing immediately what the boy's powers were. Fire at the very least...Lavi could combat that, he knew how it worked because he used it himself. Cross was mostly worried about Sil right now.

((hi guys!! ^_^ <33333 hahaha sorry in advanced for jacob being a brutal jerk...and for...what will uncertainly happen later~ but that is a secret for now fufufufuuuuuu hope you all have fun!! and Kiah! don't think you're safe just cause you are downstairs hahaha Jack's coming after you too~ hahahahaha))

(( Ily Sil <3

<3 Kizuuuzuzuzuzu. ))

"Oh dear girl, you have no idea," Lulubell slowly began to move around slowly, circling, keeping her eyes trained on Sil.

She was calculating, summing Sil up. The memory from the last time they had met was all too clear in her mind, and she desired nothing more than to slay the Exorcist. However, there were other plans for the girl, and Lulubell had no intention of killing her just yet. Perhaps maim...perhaps. She could tell Sil wanted her to move first, but Lulubell was unwilling.

However, she could see Cross from the corner of her eye, muttering his spells. If she didn't act, she might lose her chance. She had no choice. Transforming into a large, predatory, black panther, she flicked her tail back and forth before taking a leap towards Sil, claws out. Her loud roar could be heard through the halls.

((;__; Bububu.))

Lavi coughed and waved away the smoke that had appeared in the room, blinking a little once it had dissolved. He froze at the sight of the two Noah, one of whom he'd seen not too long ago, under completely different circumstances. Lulubell's words made his stomach drop and he glanced at Sil, surprised at Cross' words, wondering if she had been the reason why Sil had apparently been hurt pretty badly. He couldn't really worry about that at the moment, though, as his attention soon got drawn to the other Noah when he spoke.

He had only a short time to wonder if Jacob had known about this impending attack, remembering his sudden change in demeanor the other day, talking about having to kill people he'd gotten attached to. He gasped at the younger boy's sudden charge, willing Tettsui to grow larger in a split second and holding it in front of him to break the flames of his shield as much as possible, feeling the heat burning him from around the metal hammer and he winced. In order to dodge his burning sword, he extended the hammer's handle, holding onto it as he flew backwards. Grounding to a halt a bit further away, he swore under his breath, his arms shakingly gripping the hammer, already singed so early into the fight. He glared at Jacob, and shook his head slightly, willing himself to forget about the fact that they had been sort of hanging out not too long ago. He was being attacked, and there was only one thing he could do. Fight back. Ignoring the pain in his arms, clearing his head, he firmly gripped the handle, rushing forwards himself this time, bringing the hammer back and fiercely swinging it towards Jacob.

((Edit:

KIAH DON'T NAME HIM. THAT MEANS HE HAS TO DIE. >:C LOL.

Also.... TAPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.

TT_____TT ))

The young woman shifted along with Lulubell, making sure that no matter what happened she was between the Noah and General Cross. What Sil did know about Lulubell was that she could shift forms, though she had never witnessed the woman's imagination with her power. The only form she had ever seen Lulubell in was her human one, and a mirror image of herself.

Sil managed to smirk in the face of her comment, though as Lulubell transformed she felt her eyes widen behind her glasses. It was one thing to face down an Akuma and another all together to have a very large panther leaping towards her with ill intent. However, she also knew that all she needed to do was land a hit and wherever the hit would land would render that area on the womans body-- animal or no, useless.

The silvery fangs snapped out and she hunched down trying to avoid the womans claws. One arm lifted to block her face and neck and the other balled into a fist that she thrust upwards, trying to strike the woman in the neck or stomach with the leaping momentum traveling towards her. There was a limit to the amount of fangs she could have out-- eight at her current synch, and four three of them were along the lines of her knuckles.

(( KIAH I ******** LOVE YOU. IF YOU GET JOHNNY KILLED I WILL HATE YOU FOREVER. T_______________T -loves Johnny- ))

A level two Akuma floated through the hall, followed by several level ones. The level two was in the form of large, mechanical spider. The others were the typical, level one bulbous spheres with canons attached to them. The level two spotted Johnny and the others and crawled towards them.

"Hahahahaaaaaa, they may not be Exorcists, but this will still be fun~"

--------

Lulubell didn't manage to sink her claws into Sil, but just as Sil's arm came at her furry stomach, she switched forms. Turning into a tiny vampire bat, she became out of reach of the sharp blades. Flitting around swiftly, she swooped for Sil's leg, intending to sink her little fangs in where the tendons laid beneath the skin.
