Welcome to Gaia! ::

Crap! *Twi cursed to himself as his ankle was grabbed, but his mind stayed sharp. As he was flung around, Twi grabbed the javelin which had stuck in the couch and spun to face KB. As the man lunged for Twi's face, Twi took the javelin and thrust its point at KB's face. With this position, KB was probably about to get a javelin run through his mouth and his brain stem. What would add to more devastating effect was Twi twising to the side, which would also make the javelin twist while Twi avoided direct impact*

*Twi was really starting to hate this ghost form. Seeing that his attack had failed, Twi too the oppurtunity to dive completely out of the man's way. Twi smirked as he spun to his feet* Sorry buddy, I'm way too good for you. *He chuckled. Taking on a more cynical approach to this, Twi stood up. For a moment, he didn't move at all, as if he were doing something else. Casting a doubletake between the rafters above himself and KB, Twi grinned more* Try again pal... you won't get far. *To try and anger the spirit even further, Twi threw the javelin at the ghostly form, expecting there to be another lunge at him. Seemingly in anticipation of a frontal assault, Twi drew back his fist and readied for a huge punch in such a case*

*Twi narrowed his eyes at the apparition. It's signaling for a truce didn't much appeal to him... but it could actually serve to purpose* Hurry this up.........

*Twi hardly became less tense at the scene* Of what grounds should I even allow you the luxury of speaking to me at all? Oh but you certainly will not die..... *Twi snorted and lowered his guard* What would you say anyway? *Twi would give KB little time to answer this little show of mercy*

Axl: *Having hidden himself in the rafters.....or more so having had slept in the rafters and been awakened by screaming, Axl was more than ready to launch a sneak attack. In the next instant, several emberlike partciles would fall from the rafters to KB. Almost right on contact, KB's surface clothing and skin would be lit ablaze by a fire which could spread as if KB were covered in gasoline*

Twi: *Twi just smirked at the skeleton, as if the thing actually believed it held affection for Twi* Useless thing...... *As Axl's flames died, Twi crushed the skull of the burnt form* You wouldn't know a thing about me.........

Axl: *jumping down from the rafters* I think we got him ^^;;

Twi: Right.... Axl, we need to talk about a few things before sunrise.... but first get me a broom. I'll clean this up.

Axl: Righty then *Axl scampered off*

Twi: *sighing, Twi moved over to Bell's door. There wasn't a doubt in his mind that the affair had kept her awake. Gently knocking on the door, Twi made his voice as sincere as possible*.....Bell? I'm sorry about all the fighting and sounds. It's over now.... I'll be sure the let Griffin know what happened when he comes back...... good night and sweet dreams.... *With his brief comment, not waiting for an answer from the girl, Twi returned to clean up the main room and talk with Axl*

Draeken had breifly sensed Ari coming back to the dojo a while back, but he paid her little mind for the time being. He had bigger problems. Such as the darkness that surrounded the world. He had, however, just about finished preparing himself to remove the darkness.

Another five minutes later and suddenly his energy would flare up so much that anyone within the vicinity would likely have their senses temporarily blinded if they didnt shut them down completely within a few seconds. In the middle of that nimbus of energy, Draeken stood up and opened the door, the darkness racing away from the doorway this time as he stepped outside.

As the door shut behind him, Draeken began to lift into the air until he was a good hundred feet above the dojo, his white and black wings spread wide to either side of himself. Slowly he reached forward with both hands and lightly closed his fists as if gripping a wire. There would be nothing more except his continuously increasing amount of energy. Anyone watching closely, however, would begin to notice a line of white, about an inch in diameter, spreading from fist to fist and soon beyond both of them. Minute after minute the white line spread and branched out to create a vast and intricate network of lines that spread across the sky as far as the eye could see.

This process would take nearly half an hour without much visible change once the sky was lined in such a manor as far as the eye could see. There was no change because the white lines had to continue to spread across the entire globe. After that half hour, though, the white lines began to become thicker. Began to fill in the spaces between the lines. Slowly the entire sky was becoming white and the earth basked in a pale glow of light that seemed to come from everywhere and no where.

Another half hour would pass with the sky completely white before anything would change again. This time the sky began to fill in with color. A blue sky was beginning to come into view. A cloud here and there and eventually the sun. The world was slowly being brought back into light, the darkness that he had wrought while evil being undone. It would take almost another ten minutes before the sky was completely back in view and another twenty for him to stop, his power dwindling and once again becoming just a faint impression of a massive force.

All together the feat had taken an hour and a half, but despite that, Draeken still looked as awake and full of energy as if he had just woken up. He dropped to the ground quickly and smiled lightly as he looked around. The plant life was a bit brown, but not much had completely died in the absense of the sun. In a month or two everything would be as it was. Just about.

Nodding at his work, Draeken turned back to the dojo and walked back inside, looking around a bit to see if anyone might be there now.

"Yes. I figured it out. It wasnt too hard. I couldnt remember quite how I made it dark, though, so that was the tricky part. But I figured it out." He laughed a bit, but shook his head at her comment on the next task. "We can get me back anytime I am sure. Your mother comes first. And if our suspiciouns are correct we will need every bit of power available to get her back." His eyes became like steel then at the thought of having to fight to get Phia back.
