The front door of the BC opens, to which Xol effortlessly slips inside, slamming the door shut behind him with his foot. All the familair scents flooded his nose as his crimson eyes studied the room. With a sharp intake of air, he leapt into the rafters and ran along the long beams, ducking and diving through the criss-crossed wood and sparse cobwebs. Sensing a few "interesting" auras, Xol abruptly jumped out from the rafters and landed a short distance from the training room.
"Ceres?" He purred from his now crouched position.

*Kaiori hooks her leg under Ceres and flips her changing their positions. Ceres yanks the dagger out of kaiori's thigh and stabs at her chest. Kaiori grabs Ceres's wrist and gives it a sharp twist. Ceres inhales sharply but butts her head forwards knocking kaiori off. Stabbing at kaiori again she smirks. Kaiori tilts her hips and twists to the side avoiding the dagger. The dagger is now stuck in the floor and Ceres struggles to remove it. Kaiori knees Ceres in the head and rolls a fair distance away. She takes a new stance panting softly and glaring at her double. They are pretty much a match since both are drained of magic.*

Axl: *Axl twitched and turned upon hearing Xol* >> Jeez man don't do that! *Axl turned back and grumbled. Stepping into the training room, Axl made his presence known* Oi.... Been a few months but I guess I owe Ceres a round anyway. *He was already pulling out his honokama and preparing toe engage Ceres* Back off, fiesty..... I'd rather welcome Kai back without the interruptions.

Xol grinned at Axl and walked into the training room after him, jumping up and crouching on top of the dummy Kai had been mauling. "So this is what I miss when I leave? Interesting. Do her in good Axl, but don't go to fast, I want to see how well she fares." A quirky grin curled his lips upwards as he crushed the dummies head with his gauntlets.

*Ceres laughs wildly, tears almost filling her eyes. She holds her stomach as laughs shake her form.* So what now kaiori? Your back and free of Dom, but what good does that do you? When they all find out you know what will happen. They'll take advantage of it ...who wouldn't!? It's a beautiful deal!
*Kaiori charges and grabs Ceres's neck narrowing her icy eyes. Her dark lashes cast shadows on her cheeks giving her a dangerous look.* What does your silence go for these days?
*Ceres grins and stabs the dagger into kaiori's shoulder.* Much more then you could ever pay darling. I'm surprised though, no big speeches about how the wonderful people of BC would never take advantage of your current state, just straight to bribes. *She twists the dagger slowly as kaiori starts to crush her throat.*
*Kaiori squeezes hard and kicks Ceres repeatedly in the stomach.* Hold your tongue!! You heartless b*&^%!! Keep this up and I'll have to cut your tongue out!! *This was different from kaiori but then again she had been in captivity for over a month.*

Xol glared at Ceres for a moment, what was she talking about? He knew Kai had been captured, but her words were ominous... almost like Kai was hiding something from them and Ceres knew what and was, as always, intent on grinding her face in it.
"Enough of that Ceres. How about you pick on a big boy now..."
His gauntlets glowed momentarily, flashing off an intense pulse of power as the runic markings burned intently. It had been awhile since he and Ceres has tussled and if Axl wasn't going to move in then he would.

Axl: *Axl couldn't help but be speechless as Kai began her tirade on Ceres. A month of captivity was an understatement. Kaiori had been in someone's or someone else's grip since May. Still, Axl found that his help wasn't much needed at the moment*.... I... think she's got this one under control Xol....

*Zero's entire body twitches as he hears the commotion* I'm sorry Rel...we'll have to finish this later. *Scanning the different coloured lights he saw, headed over to the one he recognized to be Axl in the training room* Axl...who's going at it? I recognize one of them but..the other?

*Relinth turns to face the two women, and for a moment it looks as though to him nothing is going on at all. In fact right now he can see the same aura in the same area. It took him a few minutes to realize they were separate*
Umm... is she fighting her twin?

*Kaiori pulls the dagger from her shoulder and stabs Ceres in the gut.* I'll be fine without you around!!
*Ceres coughs up blood and backs away. Just like kaiori Ceres is unable to use magic, and the thought of going against two opponents which could didn't sound good. With a last bloody smile she starts to fade with her last words.* Just don't come crying to me when they figure it out. Who could resist what you're meant to do. *She laughs and fades into shadows, most likely back to her mountains.*
*Kaiori snorts and flips off the fading woman . She slumps to the ground and catches her breath. Ripping off the edge of her dress she wraps her thigh tightly and repeats this with a small struggle on her shoulder. She rotates her shoulder twice and winces. Her incredibly long black hair pools around her form and her breath still comes in short pants. She grips the floor of the training ground and avoids looking at anyone for the time being.*

With a slight huff, Xol jumped off the practice dummy and walked out of the training chambers. On his way out he gave Zero and Rel a curt nod before leaping back up into the rafters. He sat down on a beam and closed his eyes, losing himself as he expanded his senses... he was looking for something, or rather, someone?

Axl: *Axl blinked and looked to the two new arrivals* It's Kai... and the red head b@#$% is Ceres sweatdrop *Axl turned back and heard Ceres's ominous foreshadow, not understanding it yet. After Ceres left, Axl dropped his weapon and dropped in front of Kai. Despite her injuries, Axl hugged her in his own cheerful fashion* Uh... didn't exactly work out the way I wanted, but welcome back Kai! ^^

*Kaiori winces lightly but pats Axl on the back.* Thanks Axl, it's nice to be back. *She pulls her pink lips into a light smile and tilts her head to the side. Her hair tumbles over her shoulders and she gives him a quick squeeze.* I'm glad to see you and this place still standing.

Axl: *Axl laughed and gave his normal response* Mango! Mango! Of course. You know a payload of nukes couldn't take this place down. Oi ^^; I know it might feel different... but you were missed. We've had so many people vanishing and so many things starting up. But hot damn it's great to see you again! *Axl gave her another soft squeeze, then backed up with a blink* Oi... you all right?...

*Relinth looked at Axl. Another face he had not seen before. His aura gave some clues as to his heritage, but not enough to make a complete conclusion. He looked back to Kai, and bowed slightly to her. She he did remember however*
