Kiera quickly swung the staff around her to block the original attack to her stomach instead of dodging like Eve would have expected, and so wasn't in the way to get caught by the chain, and instead dashed to the side where she spun the staff around her again in what seemed to be slowed time and managed to gash Eve's thigh instead. After of which she disappeared again and appeared several meters away from Eve, flicking her long white hair behind her. She looked confident, but Kiera knew she couldn't keep this fighting style up. She wasn't used to it. And filtering her power through the staff wasn't something easy. "It's more of an extension of myself, rather than a weapon." She flicked her staff behind her again and regained her composure. She wouldn't win if all she made where tiny gashes like that. Then again, Kiera wasn't all that confident she could strike meaningfully against Eve, no matter how much she needed to do her duty.

*Eve chuckle and turned, "call it what you want Keria. But a tool is a tool, no matter the form it's in or the abilitys it may hold you know." She suddenly appeared in a split second right infront of keria, with fists of furry, but they weren't random. Eve was quick, and all around keria, making it impossible to excape, she could dodge or block, but how long could Keria last, when a single hit could probably break her bones like a tooth pick. At this point though, Keria would have realized that Eve might actually be out to kill her sister. That or wound her great enough, that she would just leave Eve alone. Thus the angels wouln'd be able to use keria aginst her anymore, now that was a plan!

Kiera took them, every single one of those punches without a single block or dodge. She knew it was pointless. When finished, she knelt half dead on the crumbling floor, huffing, holding onto her staff for support. "What is this... what is this thing you've become.." Kiera almost sobbed, kneeling there, her body broken and sore. She slowly brought herself to her feet and stared at Eve straight in the eyes. ".. to be okay with doing this.. to your younger sister.." She looked to her similar to the way she did when she was a child, looking to her older sister with a spark of admiration but also with a longing that she would never have the same kind of want to be close to a person like her. Kiera was young then, her sister was so far from her reach. Even now, Kiera felt she was reaching with an icy reply. "I could never hurt you.. like this.." Kiera lifted her staff and suddenly all giant pieces of rubble that fell from the buildings all those years ago began to float in the air with the power that surged through Kiera's staff. And suddenly all of those pieces shot towards Eve, hitting her and encasing her in a stone prison in the hope that maybe, maybe Kiera could have a chance to regain herself.

Eve contracted her muslces, let her power asorb within herself and then burst the earth and rubble in all directions. But she didn't attack Keria. Instead she stood there. "Keria I don't want you to be there ultimate puppet. Everyone on the earth right now, is a puppet, not treated like individle that matters or had potential to make there own choices. She walked up to keria, but only to stand infront of her. "I'm trying to make things how there suppost to be Keria. I'm scared for my life. I'm scared i'll have to suffer again, I just wanted what I worked for and all the promeses that was given to me." She looked down and turned to show her back to show a bunch of scars, "they beat me, and treated me more like a slave with wings then anything else." She looked back to keria, with hope she understood. "Heaven is corrupted and performing more sins then hell is right now. I just wanted to have one day with my doughter. One day." She backed up slowly, "do you understand keria? I don't want to hurt you, but I have so that they don't use you. So that they don't have you to manipulate me." She shook her head, "this goes a lot deeper then petty things. It's also personal, vary personal. Your the left hand of god, and you cant even go aginst them without loosing everything you have. It's wrong, and it's going to need a reset. Or at least something that can show them the error in there ways. To relize that their own rules, they act as if it doesn't apply to them, and it does. Cant you see that? I know you can..."

Kiera scowled up to her sister and continued to use her staff as a way to keep herself upright. She faltered, and tripped, but regained herself again, and looked to Eve again seriously. "You think I don't know how it feels?" She stood face to face with Eve, looking at her squarely. "Do you remember the Seraphim, Eve? That corrupt batch of law enforcing angels that kept me in their own prison for three years. They kept me in a cell that's built to be a persons own personal Hell. They raped me, cut me, sliced off bits of my skin, experimented all kinds of strange liquids on my body. The sadistic things they did caused me to have a miscarriage for my first child. That guy who worked there forceably ripped off one of my Phoenix's wing so that I couldn't fly but I still had that shame of having the other wing still. It was so torturous that my own brain made me forget that it had happened so I wouldn't live with the pain any longer." She looked away. "I know exactly what angels are ******** capable of." She turned and walked away a few steps. "Everyone is scared for their life Eve. That's why you have to be careful about it, not brashly acting, doing things that will have no good end. The angels are watching me, and even if I fail and you strike me down here, they will never stop hunting you. They will send more powerful beings to come and get you and when they do.. they won't be as merciful as I." Kiera hoped Eve would get it, understand that Kiera couldn't declare that she knew what Eve wanted and that she agreed with the corruption within the ranks, because then that would make Kiera a fugitive too, and Kiera meant full well to remain in her position.

Eve hesitated to speak. But adventully gave her a nod, "alright. You are right, you have been in a hell worse then the real things because of them. I've been blind to that." She looked to the ground, "I'm sorry for involving you keria. I want you to keep your position too. This is personal to me, I didn't want o drag any of the family into it. I made special precautions to make sure they didn't. Part of me doesn't want to give in, because someone edvantually has to stand and fix it. Right now, things are on my side alittle bit. But at the same time, part of me wants just give in. Let you take me back as a prizioner. Make me sit in that cell for all enternity for the things I've already done int he past month." She suddenly appeared behind keria, took her staff, pulled it, and Keria fell into a hug as Eve powered down back to her little form. "Go ahead." She drooped her head, "take me back. I give in." Keria achieved the goal, Eve backed down. And as soon as she did, down came a bunch of angels to apprehend her. They could see eve through keria, and now they had her. There was at least twelve of the police like angels, but also Two Arch Angels. Avision lightly stepped down as the police like Angels went to grab for Eve. Sure there powers wouldn't work on her now, but she no longer had the will to fight. Avison went to Keria and put a arm around her to help her stand up, "your foolish, but you done it none the less. You were able to talk her out of it, alive. As we hoped." Eve just let them drag her away, tears silently going down her face. Percillia however shook her head silently and pointed to the Eve. The guard angels stopped and waited. Percillia turned to Keria and Avision. She gave Keria a single nod, and seemed to be waiting for something... something that she was surprised didn't happen. She turned and looked to Eve, her wings rose and a voice was heard. "you didn't take your strike while my back was turned. I know I'm the one your truly after. You can easily over power those holding you. I have no defense...'" she replied walking closer to ease and mocking her a bit. Teasing her to try and kill the arch she was after. But eve just cried more. Percillia patted eve's head, "judgment can sometimes be harsh. But it cannot be changed by will of anyone." Avision shied, "we cant take her back now. She's no longer one of us, so go ahead and do it Deathica." The death arch stepped out of the shadows to put a hand on eve, and end her existence right there... Eve was too dangerous to leave on earth now. She couldn't go back to heaven, and she couldn't go to hell. The only place for her was purgatory, the realm of the sprits. But just as Dethica's hand was over eve, time stopped, and Keria heard a voice, "what is it that you believe should happen my child?"

Kiera stared at Eve, feeling her own body adjust comfortably to the time freeze. She remembered the familiar feeling. Despite the desperate situation, she couldn't help but feel calm. She shook her head. "It isn't supposed to be like this." She let her staff hold itself up and brought her hands to her chest, as if she were trying to reach for her heart. "I don't wish this kind of fate on anybody.. especially not.." She shut her eyes sadly. "I would rather myself suffer than her.." She opened her eyes again and her clock-faced eyes seemed to regain a little humanity for a moment, like she wasn't just a tool. "All I want is for her to be happy with her family... this kind of fate.. it doesn't.."
Out of fear of asking anyone to help him, Conor left the castle in search of his friend. He missed her desperately, and she wasn't anywhere around the castle at all. He first went into town, sticking to the edges of the streets so not to get noticed by all the big people. This was a terrifying experience for him, but so was the thought of never seeing his friend again. He would be stuck in a world full of adults, and the idea made him very sad. After searching around the town a little, he took a break in the midday, sitting on the edge of the fountain that laid in the town square and tossed stones into the water. It seemed like a hopeless venture, he had no idea where to start. And he couldn't get any of the adults help without getting in trouble for coming this far in the first place. He sighed sadly. "Isn't it rather dangerous for a young boy such as yourself to be out alone?" Conor quickly turned, almost falling back into the fountain as he did if it weren't for Vergil catching his arm. "Woah there." Vergil smiled and let go of him, crouching to his level. Conor's eyes widened, this man felt horrible, stunk like death, so he recoiled slightly. "I don't mean you any harm, child." Vergil nodded gravely. "But there are those who would."

The voice Replied, "It is hard to follow your Heart and to follow your duty. For the situation at hand my child, do you believe her words and feelings correct?" There was a pause, "There is a believer of your sisters faith among one of the Archs before you. Do you know which one my child?"
Poor Conner. Confused, and trying to be strong for his best friend who suddenly disappeared with her aunt and uncle. However Silvia would be smiling upon him for doing this brave act himself...

Kiera frowned. "I believe.. I wouldn't be surprised if it were Percilla." She looked up. "But I believe Eve, and I want to support her. I know the terror that these angels reign with.. but.." She shut her eyes. "It has to be this way.. it's not as easy as Eve seems to think it is. I know their wrath.." She shook her head. "So I'm stuck! I want to be there and support my sister, but in doing so that will destroy what I've already accomplished." She fell silent for a few moments, looking to the side sadly. "I would not have her gone like this." She finally said. "What significance does this other angel have?"
Conor scooted away from this man with a frown, which only really made him laugh, folding his hand through his blonde hair to keep it from his face. "I do not mean to scare you either." He nodded. "I just strongly advise you leave this place before-" Vergil looked to the side, to see Kyle walking into town, nose deep in a book. However upon noticing Conor sitting there his eyes widened and started to run towards them. Conor let out a small sigh of relief to see one of his Guardians there, maybe Kyle could help him and not get him in trouble. He looked back to Vergil to see that he suddenly wasn't there, and in another instant Kyle was there, kneeling to his level with a worried look. "What on earth were you doing all the way out here?" He put his hands on Conor's head as if to verify he was really there. Conor frowned. "Silvea." Kyle sighed and nodded. "I understand Conor. But you mustn't come out here. There are people who would steal you away given half the chance. And I don't have the power to protect you any more."

There was silence, then something sorta like a chuckle heard, a light shown beaming donw on percillia in her current stance. "Look closly my child of Time." If keria did look closer, she would find there was a tear in percillia's eye at the moment, staring at eve was an uneasy look. Her expression didn't match what her eyes fortold. "Percillia is but another in the same hands that you are within yourself. She too lies within the same position, the same acknoligment, and belief as you. Thus is why I placed you both upon earth, I will say." The light faded around percillia a few moments and the voice spoke again, "however your answer my child is clouded." Meaning keria was wrong, it wasn't Percillia he ment at all. Percillia was also a puppet in the strings like keria, put there by chance because of her past life without a choice. But there was one there that knew exacly what Eve was talking about. And it was the vary one, as the light shown apon her slowly, that had her hand almost to Eve's head to erase her. Dethica, the oldest umong the current Arch Angels. The only original one left form the original set of Arch angels. The voice spoke again, "thret not my child. For there were eight born Angels upon my light and only eight." And that was all the voice had said now, but time still seemed pulsed as if to give keria time to think about what was just said. What god ment. It was a gift to speak to the one himself. Only the right and left hand could ever hear or speak to him. But for him to say anything at all, ment there was importance beyond even the Arches to take place. Beyond heavens control. How would things play out? Should Keria act? Would she await for a better time? Could she see that light, in the same sape and form they did, or was she different. Maybe she viewed it like Percillia had... there was too much history unknown here... too much to learn about the Arches that only Keria had the true power and skill to learn. She had homework cut out for her surly, depending on her decistion as of now...

Kiera's brain churned, she couldn't let this happen. This wasn't right, she couldn't let things play out like this. This wasn't right. Real time suddenly started back up, and Deathica was suddenly blown back by a last burst of Kiera's energy, away from Eve. Kiera stood in front of Eve with her arms at her sides, staff in one of them. "This is wrong!" She looked to all of them seriously. "This isn't proper judgement! You're just doing this to suit yourselves!" She wouldn't let anybody get to Eve. "Our lord spoke to me! Does that mean anything to you all any more?" She looked to Deathica particularly. "Look at yourselves. This isn't just, this is cowardly! You're all putting your tails between your legs because one person.. ONE person threatened the way you live. You're just looking out for yourselves!" Kiera huffed, knowing she was throwing herself under the bus by doing this. But she didn't seem to care.
Conor pulled a face. "Where's Silvea?" Kyle sighed and lowered his head. His reaction indicated to Conor that Kyle knew where she was, and that troubled Conor. "You're one of the evil people too." Kyle looked back to Conor, confused. "What?" Conor backed away from Kyle. "You took her away." Kyle shook his head. "No Conor. You don't understand. They're after you. I'm.. in a position.. I can't." Conor shook his head. "No!" Conor suddenly disappeared from his spot, making Kyle's eyes widen dramatically. "What." He stood and looked around himself. "No.. Conor." He couldn't feel Conor's presence anywhere. Did Conor just teleport? He hadn't done that before. "Conor!"

The angels seemed to have trouble with the fact that something just happened out of no where. But as to be expected, keira could manipulate time to the exact second of something, then turn the tide of it, or change something. Dethica however was the one to stand and looked to Keria, "your job is not to judge, nor..." She pulsed and Percilla shook her head, "I had forseen the judgment of your sister Eve. There is no dought upon it Keria." He wings spoke of course however, not her. So it wasn't her real voice like up in heaven. Eve however was now on her knees, where she had landed from when deathica was shot back. Avision however was the one to try and quickly stop Eve before something would happen before the archs little disagreement would come to an answer to what should happen. But just as Avision apprehended Eve, and used her spear to hold Eve in place, Avision, Percilla, Dethica, were all suddenly pushed back by a unknown force, a blinding light that formed out of now where and flashed before everyone. WHen the flash was done in the same instant it had appeared, Eve's wings had returned, however her hallo had not. Her wings were as if never been damaged, and they had a weird glow around them that clearly told keria, she had a little help from she knows who. the words would echo however in Keria's mind. "there were eight born Angels upon my light and only eight." Eve herself however didn't understand either, she was looking to her wings as if in horror of it all, all that pain she had been holding back because she ripped them off was for nothing in her eyes. No matter what, she lost. She was confused. She finally however looked to Keria with hope in her eyes, that keria would know what was going on, what was going to happen to her. As for the other arches, they stood a greater distance now, circling around eve and keria in the center. "how... conserning..." percillia's wings spoke, "her judgment has... just disappeared." She blinked unsure now what was right, what was wrong, or how this was to be taken. Avision however, only saw it as Eve acting aginst them still, and was ready to rush in for a strike to end the whole thing now... Dethica she stood there staring at the wings. That light... she saw it before. The day Eve was born, and seven others upon that same day. The mark of god, the true mark. She looked around suspiciously for a moment, and decided to keep quiet.

"STOP!" Kiera screeched, looking to them all and sticking her staff in the ground in front of her. "Are you all so blind as to not recognise our Lords actions?!" She felt herself fill with power again, revitalising and pure. Her broken body healed. "Do not make a move on Eve, she has destiny in her yet." She looked to Percilla. "The absence of her judgement proves this. You can't touch her. It would be against the will of God." She let out a small sigh of relief. "I have a new duty entrusted to me, and you all should think to reevaluate your own." She looked to them all incriminatingly. "We're angels. Not demons. Remember that."

Avision was the only one to ignor Keria's words, going in for a strike to at least stop Eve from ever advancing without them being able to stop her again. But Eve was quicker, she took the edge of the spear as it was trusted at her, twisted it, and let it stick into the ground, using her other hand he grabbed the armor Avision was waring and forced her eve level to Eve, "... can you not control yourself. Your attacking a unarmed, non-threat, women o her knees!' She let go of Avisions Armor by a little push to make her stumble a few steps back. Eve looked to Percillia. Percilla looked to keria, then back. She gave a nod, "We should not go any further on this matter as of now." She wings spoke. Avision started to wine though to keria, "what makes you think destiny is her's to choose. That are isn't even here right now keria! So what, she makes her wings grow back, she glows..." but she didn't understand how exacly Eve did all that either. She was in dnile. Percilla gave a nod, "Judgment is created by the sin and praze of each individual. For it to go blank, means that all sins had been forgivin. And that all Praze has been restored byt he lord himself. If there is no judgment, there is nothing to be said no done until there is. Wether it's destiney, fate, or otherwise the lord is the only one who can change the details in which makes these complicated jesters." She finally moved from her spot to leave without any more word. Avision in anger, flew into the sky to return to heaven. BUt Dethica stayed put. She walked closer to keria, "does he really speak to you child?" She replied in wonder, cokcin gher head tot he side, "what is this task asked of you?" she questioned. Eve just sat there, unsure what she was suppost to do at this point. Was she free to go? Was she suppost to go back to heaven now? Prizion, no prizion. Was her family going to be safe if she went to see them? What did percillia mean by all sins forgiven and prize... it made no sense to her. She had her wings back, so she lost. Right?

Kiera sighed and watched her staff dematerialise, before she turned to walk over to Eve and helped her to her feet. "Yes, he speaks to me." She looked to Deathica through thinned eyes. "However I will not tell you. I think you've all done enough for one day." She turned away and back to Eve. "I work alone." She looked to Eve with a smile. "You don't have to worry for now." She brought Eve into a tight hug, something she'd been meaning to do for a while. "They can't do anything to you for now. And if they tried, they would have to go through me first. I'm so sorry for what you've been through, for what they've put you through. Your 'crimes' against them have been forgiven. The Lord favours you, and gave me a chance to change all of this." She nodded to Eve with a smile. "Do whatever you want."
