Welcome to Gaia! ::

Cam was shaking, still frightened, and as he received the pad and pen, Haruto was sent flying backward against the wall. Cam stood there, horrified, and fled down the hallway.

Cam stopped with a jump as Haruto appeared in front of him, and he turned and ran back the other way, hiding behind Shizue. He clutched her arm, handing her his pad
[Please, make him stop! He is scaring me, I don't understand what all is going on!]

Cam was still shaking with fear in his eyes, and he clung to Shizue like a schoolgirl clings to her boyfriend, his eyes fixated on Onyx.

Xiaeriene walked past the two of them, ignoring Hikaru as well, making a face at Haruto "Ugh! You utterly disgust me, no wonder Dess turned to the side of evil! You probably went around threating her just like that dumb kid. Seriously not cool, picking on a handicapped kid like that!" She turned her nose up and walked away with her KoGals

Hikaru heard him snap. Like a wooden door, his mental blockade was washed away by the torrent of rage that stormed through. Not even the emotion draining powers of his armor could slow it down. His earlier behavior might have been just an effect of the suit, but his anger was purely Haru's. It frighted her that her brother was even feeling such a thing, as he had only been moderately annoyed before. She acted just in time. She placed the strongest barrier she could between Haru and the rest. It wasn't enough, and He crashed through with relative ease.He hit Xiaeriene in the back of the neck with enough force to send her through the next three walls and out of a window. She flew no further though, as Haru appeared in a blink and slammed her down to the earth towards the spiked fence that surrounded the school. He was stopped in his next assault by his sister, who hurriedly grabbed his arm. In a flash of light, they were gone without a trace.

Xiaeriene let out a gasp as she was impaled by the fence in multiple spots, but somehow managed to wrench herself down, portions of the fence still ticking out of her torso. She walked toward her KoGals, who had been running toward her "See girls, I told you ne was a creep, he couldn't even beat me! *Cough* heheh....*Cough*" she coughed up blood, and fell to the ground, bleeding heavily from her wounds. Her Kogals were screaming.

Honey rushed into the parking lot and halted her motorbike "Damnit, I'm late, I'm late, I'm so very late! HONEY FLASH!!!!!" In an instzant, she had transformed back to normal. As she turned to the schoolyard, she spotted Xiaeriene lying in a pool of blood, with her troupe screaming in horror. She rushed over to her, and checked her "Oh my god! Girls, back up! I'm taking her to get help!"
She never reached the girl, as Hikari-yin appeared, and she was swallowed up once again by the tentacles. He vanished in less han a second, his words echoing to Honey "Beware of Haruto, he is no longer an ally"
Honey stood up, confused, wondering who he was and what he meant. She turned to the damages through the wall, and spotted Cambyses off in the hallway, clutching Shizue, frozen with fear. She was over there in less than a minute, and she looked down to them "Shizue, what happened!? I need to know what is going on! Are you two alright?"

Hikaru was conflicted. She had always been slow to anger and very humble. But the recent events being what they were. The sudden appearance of this man and his insistence was almost enough to push her to far. "Calm down, sir. I am sorry that my brother caused her pain, but becoming upset and blaming me is not going to heal her." Hikaru knelt down and placed her hands over the bars. A pulse of white energy emanated from her outstretched palm and the spikes disappeared. She then began to close the wounds and reconnect the severed tissue. finally, she sent a pulse of healing energy to bring the diva back around, and to kick start her regenerative system. "There." She said. Suddenly the feeling was to much. Was this the bracelet taking over? She turned to her accuser, suddenly upset. "I healed her only because I hate to see death, not because you told me to, and if you ever insult my brother or myself ever again..." Her voice wavered and she swallowed hard. She slapped Hikari-yin across the face and walked away. With a strong push in her mind, she finally got control of the artifact and her clothing changed back to her regular uniform.

Hikari-yin summoned tentacles that took Xiaeriene away, then swiftly followed Hikaru "I still have something important to discuss with you, now that your brother is out of earshot. Please, it is very impoertant, as it not only concerns Xiaedessa, but your brother as well."

Cam started to follow, but he saw Shizue's irritated and confused aura, and thought it best to give her a bit of space. He picked up him pen and pad and began walking

Hikari-yin reached back and unraveled the special cloth that shrouded his head. Instantly, his identity was revealed; the feathery-white beard, and the scar Vain Ziler had given him back in the Twin Realms. His face was more aged now, and his hair was cut short and spiked. His muscles were not as overly bulky, and he had lost his belly. "Now you see, even we who have cast aside our feelings, still have emotions. It is too much for us. My failure as a father, as a husband, my inability to protect my son, to prevent the death of my Sora.....my sister's failure to protect her daughter from the Black Star Nation. Our regret has given us strength, and resolve. We have spent ten long years training since we staged our own death. And until everything is over with, our identity must be kept secret, at least to our children. Xiaedessa is prisoner of the Demon Sword Medium, held by it's curse. And the only way to break that curse, is for the host to kill someone they have a special, close bond with. That is why Haruko could not hear of this, because we cannot risk him doing anything rash. It seems though, our other fear is being realized. He is acting rash in a different way, and now, if Medium were to go to him and appeal to his insanity, she would have him at her side, and he as well would become one of our enemies. If that happens, what will you do?"
