Lena darted forward again and swung her staff low, aiming for his knees. At the last moment, she brought it up, whirling and bringing the staff toward his chest. She wanted blood. She wanted death. Her mind raged at him. How dared he think that he could defeat her. After her last attack, she backed up a moment, trying to clear her head.

He easily dodged the swipe for the knees buy jumping over the staff. Keeping his eyes on Lena, he watched her next move. He shoulders raised and the staff came at his chest all of a sudden. Acting instinctively, he brought up his sword, the tip of it connecting with the tip of the staff. He used this momentum and his own strength, to gain some distance but pushing into the staff with the sword.
Now that they were father apart, he got a chance to look at her face. Her eyes were full of murder and she panted heavily. This was the look of blood lust: in other words, wanting nothing more than to kill. There is no motive when driven into blood lust and there are one two ways to beat it: staying completely calm, or giving into blood lust yourself. Of course, Taern knew the feeling of blood lust himself. He couldn't quiet recall when it happened but he knew the feeling all to well.
He did not; however, know exactly what to do in this particular situation. He did not want to harm Lena physically but, did not want to hurt her pride either. If it seemed like he was holding back, she might just sink even further and further and eventually, be consumed with rage. If he fought fire with fire, he might end up killing her or in a worse case scenario, he might die.
The burning feeling he had felt sometime before was now welling up inside him again. It burst from his chest and then consumed the rest of his body like he was being set aflame.
Then it began to empower him. Somehow, either instinctively or maybe just by beginner's luck, he learned how to harness a power that didn't come form the steel inside him. It didn't even come from his own flesh. This power he had begin given resided somewhere else. It was in the water, the trees, the grass, the dirt, the sand, and even the very air he was breathing.
None of it made sense to him but he knew that it was good and with an added stroke of luck, he could bring Lena back. He dropped his sword and stood erect and firm, looking Lena right in the eye. His own eyes were now filled with a raging fire, the same that consumed Lena but he could control his own. He could make it work for him instead of against him.
His eyes were focused on Lena and his mind was clear. He was now ready to put away the kid cloves and get ready to kill if it meant he had to.

X followed Oni into the weapons and firing range just off of the North Wing of the large training building and instantly caught sight of the large and small target dummies aligned just beyond the other end of the hall. His eagerness slightly showed as he quickly withdrew Deliverance to show of his gun style to his new friend.
"...Thank you ever so kindly for guiding me here, It is greatfully apreciated... Might you be able to stay abit longer, just to watch me a bit?" X asked, aiming his guns to the ground so he could bow to her out of respect.

Oni turned and faced X. "It was no trouble at all, you dont have to bow to me." she said, being very modest as usual. Shifting Tetsuo from her back to her shoulders so that he could get a better view, she eagerly accepted X's invitation. "I was actually hoping that you would allow me to stay and watch you use those awesome guns. Then maybe, if you want, I could show off my skills as well. Oni was unusually cocky at that moment. After her bout with Mr. Tadakatsu, she had a much better understanding of her skills. Besides that, she was eager to show X her abilities. She backed away a few steps. "Show me whatcha got!"

Lena swallowed, trying to focus. She couldn't quite see properly and she did not like that. She stumbled back, bumping against the wall. "What...?" She groaned softly, dropping her staff. There was something going on. For a moment, she could suddenly see. She saw Taern seeming to burn. His gaze was burning her. And then she couldn't see. She fell against the wall, her mind seeming to seperate itself.
She was on some kind of cold table of some sort. Like nothing she had ever felt before. She lifted an arm and stared at it in confusion. It wasn't a real arm. She frowned and tried to lift her other arm. It wouldn't move. She turned her head and saw that it was in a peice of metal. She hadn't seen metal before except once. Her eyes widened. What exactly was going on. She turned and her eyes went to the door. She could hear someone. They were coming. Then they walked in. They all appeared to be men. Old men. "What..?" One of them frowned. "The speech link is up. It's not supposed to be activated yet. It's not even supposed to be moving." Another man came forward, his cold eyes inspecting her. "If you remember Carl, she is also part human. We combined the two. Just because most of her is a computer, does not mean she will follow the orders placed within her mainframe." She frowned, fear starting to take hold. What were they talking about? The man spoke again. "You are known as Selenas12RC. State your purpose." She frowned. "My name is Selena Nikashi and my purpose is to escape." Something hit her across the face. She lunged up, anger taking over. Her bound arm ipped free of her bindings and her hands closed around his throat. The man became pale. Carl came forward and touched her with something causing her to release the man. A small smile appeared on his face. "Good. She's ready to destroy them."
Lena shuddered. What was happening. This school was too much. She had to leave. Lenas stood unsteadily, her hand on the wall. She flinched as she looked at it. It was no human hand. She shook her head. "I'm sorry..." Her voice was strangled as she darted outside and headed for the woods.

He knew Lena had seen something again but she was not seeing any of Taern's memories this time. She was seeing her own and Taern had a feeling they were somewhat similar to his own. He threw the sword to weapons rack with enough skill to make it land in it's proper place. He did the same with Lena's staff and grabbed his gear.
He hesitated to leave, turning back to grab anything Lena had left behind, mainly, her blades. He slung them over one shoulder and went after Lena.

Tomoro wandered into the North hall, her dress bouncing. "I'll just go to the public room. And start hand to hand combat." Tomoro kicked the door to the public room open, and surprised quite a few students; one wouldn't think with her strong frame she could smash a bamboo door open. Still in her dress, everyone stared at her; after all, she should be in a robe or something. Tomoro plainly didn't give a crap anymore, and she cleared the way, forcing a few students to move from their training spots as she began kicking a regular punching bag, and of course, punching it. Focus your anger on it, girl... Tomoro gritted her teeth, and ripped her eyepatch off as she opened both her eyes, not caring anymore. I WANT TO BE NORMAL, I WANT TO BE NORMAL....
A few students gasped at the fact her right eye bore a black scar, but she grimaced at them, and continued punching and kicking the bag. After it was practically beaten to a bloody pulp, she moved onto wooden and cement blocks, used for the martial arts. Of course, she had no experience in that department, but the feelings of hatred inside of her, and the fact that her father conducted THAT experiment on her made her stronger than she would normally be, and with her black boot, Tomoro stomped on the cement block, cracking it in half. I'm just a weapon... that's it... THAT'S IT...

As the other student's backed away another one just sat there watching and smiling at Tomoro. Mergex eyes shone at the chance. Yes this one felt anger and pain. Another easy target to deceit. It was funny really. All the student backed away at the sight of her eye. If these people where training then they could expect alot more in a war zone.
Compared to that girls eye if any of these students saw what he saw through out his years they'd curl and ask for death. Servered limbs. Cities,families,people evaporated by balls of blackfire. Destruction of entire species of life to never be seen again. This school was training the weak. But the weak where meant to feed the strong.
Mergex clapped for Tomoro. " Your power seemed to surge with your anger. Us less but effective at scaring the weaklings in these rooms. Anger can never win a fight. it can only distract you and make you more of an easy target than a stronger foe. What is it that makes you so angry? Did someone hurt you? A bad past? Or both? Maybe it was that you killed your loving parents. Or your loving parents tried to kill you? Where you tortured or did the torturing and lost you child mind? Stop me if I guess it." Mergex said smiling cruelly.

Tomoro turned at Mergex, eyes hollow and empty. What does he want...? I don't have anything to do with him. He's right on, though. Who is this man? Tomoro flipped her hair, and grabbed a towel near her, wiping off beads of sweat that fell from her face. She picked up her eyepatch, putting it back on, and began to strut out, ignoring the fool that dared to bother her when she was angry. If he got any closer, she'd just be trigger happy, and shoot him.
"Hmph." Tomoro snorted as she turned to look at him, and began to walk off, boots clacking. Father's experiment is beginning to take over me. Great. Tomoro coughed slightly, and held onto her lungs as she continued walking.

Mergex smiled. He got up and followed her out. " Tell me. Is it your past that you fear the most or your future. What has been done to you? What has broken you? Let me tell you something. You are not broken...only cracked. You haven't fallen far. Because when you do become broken you gain your true power. Your still weak and pathetic. You hold no control of your life or those around you. You are and truly forever will be a bug to be squashed" he said his eyes glowing an eerie shade of purple.
" What do you fear? Your past or future?" he repeated now smiling.

Ignore him, Tomoro.. this man knows nothing. He can't do anything to you right now. Tomoro smirked, and swiveled around, in the middle of the building, pulling her revolver out. "Oh, but why does it matter to you, stranger? I have nothing to do with you. I don't fear anymore. I don't feel anything anymore. I'm just a doll, a pawn in a chess game. Manipulated by strings by an unknown man." She pointed the revolver at Mergex's head, putting one hand on her hip. "Leave me be. There's no point in talking to me. Come any closer, and I will shoot you." Tomoro put her gun back in the holster, and continued walking to the door.

" Now now. Theres no need for silly toys. But your right you are a pawn. In a game. But now the game has shifted...my father and i will soon be the pawn masters. and you and everyone in this school will be our pawns. No you won't be used as soilders. More as practice to kill. I can show what my father has done. What can you expect in the near future when I bring my father back alive!" Mergex said about to raise his hand.
" Come on. Everyone enjoys a good horror flim!" he said still moving behind her.

"Pathetic. You need your ol daddy to help you rule? Get a grip on reality, you fool. I'm not bowing down to anyone, I go by my own rules." Tomoro snorted as she threw her training towel into the local hamper, and stepped into yet another training room. What a loser... needing his father to help him rule. Insolent fool. Tomoro yawned, and brought out her gun, aiming at the invincible solid mythril targets, shooting bulls eyes every time. Why is he still following and watching me? What a weirdo. "If you have something to say to me, say it now, stranger." Tomoro said sarcastically, her back turned.

" Yes. An offer to your suiting. You think you may be hiding your inner feelings but your not. If you can complete this task as i have promise you will be granted one million dollars in jewels and gold. But you need more right? A person like you id modest and does not need such trivial things. Yes but I offer a wish to those who can complete the task. And it's a simple tasks really. just catching two young boys. I don't know why anyone hasn't done it yet. You said you where a tool. Well why not a useful tool? Instead of getting angry and looking like a fool why not use the wish to get out being a tool and have everyone else be your tool instead? Or stay like you are. Cracked and weak. Undeserving of any life" Mergex said still following her and still smiling.
If this girl did not want to see his fathers past doings then fine. But she could still be useful.
