Welcome to Gaia! ::

As the dragon was on its way out it smashed its tail against the wall dislodging Lynx and his sword, it then flew off with Mark on its back.

Maric heard Breyze's statement and said, "I am fine, but now we have a real problem. We cannot kill Mark, because if we do then I to will die, we cannot even hurt him or else I too will feel the pain, and it works the other way as well. If I am hurt he will feel it, if I die then so will he. He has gained what he has always wanted, unlimited power. He can draw on my strength for his summonings as I cn draw from his, but all of this at a terrible price. We have to figure out how to reverse this." Maric then turned to Lynx and said, "You cannot fight him, only I have that right and knowledge I know how to fight him, I have been doing it for many years now." Maric then fell silent and looked out after Mark.

Meanwhile Mark had begun his search for the one called Hades. He wished to join with him to cause havoc and destruction. What Mark didn't know was that any bodily harm he had Maric would feel and that any Maric felt he would feel. As he was flying his dragon sensed two figures, one male, and one fenale. The dragon being what it was decided to investigate and Mark knew he needed to hide sop he let the dragon. When he landed he walked up to them and said, unknowing that this man was who he was looking for, "Do either of you know where I can find the man who has control over earth and fire, the Titans have dubbed him 'Hades'. I wish to help him destroy the Titans. They have become far to numorus." Mark sweeped his balck-streaked silver hair out of his face revealing his eyes that, unlike Maric's, were blood red.

"Yes indeed we do." Mark then jumped back onto his dragon and took off following Seirou. "I sure hope this guy us all he's cracked up to be. He may be the only one who can help me defeat the Titans, all the others are just to weak. Judgeing y the mayhem he caused he is just the kind of support I need..." Mark thought to himself.

"I told you already. I know that you, like me, want to detroy the Teen Titans. I do as well. There is just one problem Hades, we cannot harm MAric, for if he is harmed, then I am harmed, and it also works the other way. We need to find a way to keep this from happening, we need to sever this bond between him and I, and I was hoping that you would be able to help me, and in return, I help you on your conquest of the destruction of the Titans." Mark replied somewhat annoyed that Seirou hadn't paid any attention to what he previously had said when they first met.

"Good." Mark reached out and clasped Seirou's hand. "Now... to business. First we need to capture Maric. Without him we can do nothing for me,but even then there will be a danger of Maric taking control, we must find a way to bind him so that he can never ontrol the body, at least for too long, he tried to do the same to me not too long ago. How do you suggest we go about it, Hades?" Mark fell silent and waited for a response.

Meanwhile back in the Titan's Tower Maric turned back towards Breyze and said, "I think that I have more than what Mark thinks I do, I can still hear his thoughts and feel his feelings. I fear that he has joined Hades Mark activily searched him out. He has found him and they have joined ogether, I think I can block him from noticing me, but it isn't a sure thing. They are planning to capture me and bring me toa witch someplace to give Mark complete control over us, after putting us back together. I think we are going to need Raven for this, we need to see if she has the power to do what they are planning, but in reverse.She won't talk to me for some reason Breyze, can you talk to her for m? I don't think she likes me much. Although I can't really blame her..." Mark looked very upset at the mention of Raven, even though he brought her up. Nobody, but Mark, knew that secretly he had a crush on Raven.

"Zetro? Who is Zetro? I have never heard of him. What is his power, and how can he help me return Mark to my body and help me keep him under control?" Maric seemed a bit skeptic about this Zetro person. He wondered if this person was as good as Breyze said he was.

Mark raised and eybrow at Seirou and said, "I am Mark, we are after Maric. I don't think their is any need for that, if I no Maric, he will put up a fight, one that I don't think even your clay men could handle, I know that you had problems with him when you and he fought on dragonback. Maric was hardly even phased by you, so you will need my help, he knows he can't hurt me, and I know that I can't hurt him. But your plan is sound enoguh. Lets do it as soon as possible." Mark said with a wicked grin.

Suddenly Maric said to Breyeze, "We need to cover the defense area, Mark and Hades are planning to invade the Tower turn off the systems, so they can use their powers and then capture me. We can't let them get anywhere near the defenses, or there will be no hope for me, I can't fight Mark, so they wil just have to use him to capture me. When they come we will have to try to capture them without harming Mark or we will harm me as well." Mairc then turned back to his thoughts an his home... and the family he hadn't seen in many years.

Zetro activates his communicator and responds. "Breyze, is that you? What is up? I'm up linking my new defense system to the tower so that not alot of people can get in. Unfortunatlly, I am stuck and I can't seem to get out... as in I'm really stuck. At least I have full controle of all of the tower's systems. Both me and Cyborgs defenses that was up loaded couple years before..... I think."
