Lucas listened, his brow arched as Kira gave him and Arc an earful. Here, Lucas thought that he had waded through some trouble but Kira probably took the cake. His facial expressions went from intrigued to concerned as the story shifted to Inferno and Morik. Morik's name drop would mean that every member of Cruxis save Raphael was roaming around. Granted he didn't think they'd be a threat, Heaven and Hell's current agenda pushers may use that information as leverage.
He'd scratch his head in frustration as he listened on about Imperius and Syrel. They must have belonged to one of the factions of Celestials that opposed Lucas' authority. It appeared that the Fallen King's list of opponents gained two more names. Frowning now, his head would shake while mulling over just what Imperius could have known about Cruxis and the Tower.
All in all, Lucas was glad that Kira fought to change things and that he was alright. It also sounded as if his comrades were okay, even if they had scattered to the wind. However Kira would then address Lucas who would look into his Vanguard's eyes.
"I think you got your nose hairs singed, bud." Not to mention he may have had his head knocked around. Fire wasn't the best element to test the Nephilim in any situation. "But I suppose I'd rather you question my integrity than blindly following orders. There's nothing to worry about though. I'd like you to trust Arc as well. He's been very helpful thus far. We haven't exactly had a smooth trip from Heaven to here...And if we can't find Oni or Inferno then we're essentially sitting ducks. Is there a way to contact Grants or Wyndom? I think it's best that we rally any allies soon before we have to force our hand."
Kira wasn't completely off about sniffing something "darker". However he had to realize that Lucas had always harbored a darker side. The Corruption energy still flowed through his veins but it was kept dormant most times. It was infectious and lusted for power. Although Lucas' intentions were focused it would be clear that he'd do anything to achieve his goals. Kira may have smelled a similar aura from Morik. The Corruption spawned from Nightshade and had been "gifted". But as Lucas tried to assure Kira this element had been with the Celestial for quite some time.
Now was the time to regroup.

"And If I'm not on his side? If you remember me from the forest, you'd do well to remember just how easily I was able to deal with the guardian that Lucifer had hand picked. Pick a fight at your own risk...bub." Arc was still a bit edgy after his chat with Kikyo and her pets. He probably wouldn't calm down until he had a chance to rest.
As for Kira's story, the parts that caught Arc's attention the most would be the parts about Oni. Just how strong has this Imperius been to stand up to Oni? Between Nishi, Asa, and Spirit, Oni was a force to be reckoned with. Arc wouldn't voice his thoughts on the matter though, the angel was dead and information on the fight wouldn't be helpful. Letting out a sigh Arc would turn and slowly walk away from the two of them. If he voiced his opinions and thoughts he was sure that a fight would break out. That one is too much like Oni. The fact that the two of them were traveling together surprises me. Not as much as the fact that the two of them managed not to kill each other.

Garakon would not act as the two left. He wasn't entirely sure what this would implement in the budding plans of Kikyo but alas it was but a trifle. Right now there was other business to attend to. He would turn back to Kikyo and watch for a moment and wait. He wasn't entirely sure what she intended to do next but he knew there was some things that did need to be done aside from just rebuilding the citadel into an absolute fortress. He wanted to know simply where she would go first. Rebuild structure, forces, power. He would do what he could in that end. Hell needed to be grand yet again. The true origins of hell needed to be recognized and made solid. Thus true power could be obtained again.

Takehitsu found himself again waiting Inferno and him had left the fortress which needed repairs at this point. Takehitsu however had less to go on to find this Morick then his good friend did. This was also a most odd scenario. Takehitsu did three things primarily. Kill, gather information and create, primarily creating weapons but he had invented many other useful things. He had some sort of information on a lot of people but to this point Morick was not one of them. Takehitsu began to draw the line in his head that this man had something to do with shadows alike to himself. Although probably more along the lines of his powers rather than just sticking to them as a personality trait. Regardless of his thoughts on the matter he watched his old friend.
On one degree it felt rather refreshing and good to be back united with his friend. It had once been said that Inferno and Takehitsu together were a completely unstoppable force. Since then many things had happened. Takehitsu had gained more weapons and strength. Inferno had been sealed somehow. Takehitsu would follow Inferno. This was after all Inferno's mission. Vengeance for his lost son. Something Takehitsu actually truthfully could not relate to. Takehitsu felt a bit at odds with this. He had never known the love of a woman, nor as a result ever had the possibility if having offspring. He did however having been around for so long seen and witnessed this type of scenario enough to understand even though being unable to relate. Takehitsu would not kill Morick himself. He would use his strength and technology to play a diversionary force and aid Inferno which will cause Morick whether he has an overly obtrusive amount of power or a limited amount to fight on two fronts both of which can in all reality kill him. But alas the vengeance was not Takehitsu's to reap it was Inferno's.
Only after Vengeance was acquired could Inferno's son truly be put to rest. In soul and in mind of those who lost him. This was a simple philosophy of the Warrior. It was also a very real extension of life that was simply known. Takehitsu watched Inferno. Analyzing him but not to see if Inferno was going mad or loosing himself. But he was reading him for a sense of understanding. He wanted to help Inferno now more than ever. This was somewhat of an oddity for Takehitsu. He wasn't overly partial to helping people just for the sake of it. Most of the time he did so with an ulterior motive of getting a good job, or various other things that were but a minor thing.
The story so far (i couldn't find a extended version so this'll have to do scream )
[!] ~”The winds of freedom blows for those can't hope for it”~[!]
Kira's eye's would stare down Lucas as he mentioned his nose hair's gettin' singed, even the Nephilim knew better then that. "And you know better then to doubt my sense of smell." His eye's shifted over to Arc as boasted about defeating the guardian from the forest from before. Course the taunting of picking a fight was not the best words of choice in the aspect of Kira questioning the group in total, if anything it just led him to believe they may not be the good guys anymore." "Well 'Bub' time's change, as do peoples strength, if you think i'm the same from then..." Kira would take a step back as he draw the mightly blade using a reverse grip, as it sang coming from the sheath, runes would glow faintly along the blade. "Here's a test run anyways, Orb mines."
The air would swirl from within the building, as small little orb's formed around Kira at first then expanded rather quickly out, almost like a pulse, outwards from the revived warrior. The sword's would give Kira himself little room as well as be apart by a only foot each, as they were filling the room. "I wouldn't move, unless you've heat resistant armor or lung's like i do, Using the mastery of the Wind element, and Controling the heat around, i've focused it and impacted it within the wind sphere's, not to the degree of Lucas, but should be good enough, frankly i've been around him long enough to learn a few things." Kira would inhale as he would flip his grip and rise the sword into the air, and the sphere's would fly off into the hair and explode into a chained number of explosion's as one went off as did they all. "Wait for it..." The resounding force would pummel the group within the already wrecked fortress, with just air pressure alone.
"Now that i've tested this new weapon out, allow me to contact the other's, if you'd excuse me a moment gents." Kira would spin the sword back into the reverse grip and place it back into his sheath as it sang yet again. Reaching into his pouch he would turn his back on the two as the tension eased, or would feel like it at any rate. Kira had pulled out one of the other dragon orb's that was a different color then the one Lucas had and he would tap on it once or twice. "Yo Grants, I've run across Lucas, and his..." He would look over towards Arc for a second at least knowing the name would likely not be good to mention. "Companion. I am awaiting your answer, contact David and Wyndom right away and it's time to reunite the parties." Sighing he would place the orb in the pouch for the time being as he walked over to one of the rocks and sat on it, placing his hands behind his head and leaning back. "Now the boring part...waiting, unless one of you wanna throw down alittle bit to stay warmed up, otherwise alittle rest would do you both some good, i can feel you two haven't had it easy either."
as much as kira wanted to test out his new abilitys with his sword, he knew now was the time to conserve energy not waste it, but he wouldn't say no to some friendly fighting either.

Lucas stepped back, bracing himself for Kira's new technique. He was more reminded of Inferno than himself when the chain of shockwaves.Then again, most anything that exploded suddenly had a resemblance to Inferno's tactics. It was good to see Kira always improving himself and his abilities. The Nephilim wished he could take a moment to reflect on when they first met but this was not the time nor place for nostalgia.
Lucas looked to Arc, unsure if he'd take Kira's antics well or not. Either way it would seem that they were able to get results with the Orbs. Truly, this was the first thing to go smoothly so far. He'd wait for an answer as Kira communicated to Grants with the Orbs. He had hoped everyone was fairing well.
"Kira??! Goodness, we're glad you're okay. We were just about to contact you. We have Rogziel on our side for now. Are you still with Oni? It's safe here if you want to travel back to Heaven." Grants' voice would ring through without any trouble. It would seem that Grants and Sabriel had gotten their end of things straightened out.
"General Grants, this is Lucas. It's good to hear your voice. We can get to Heaven but we'd need a way to conceal strong spiritual energy. Aside from Kira and Myself, Arc is with us. If we all enter Heaven at the same time someone is bound to notice."
"Lucas! I'm also glad to hear that you're well. I believe we can mask everyone's aura with Rogziel's power. We in his domain right now. Everyone should be able to cross over without notice."
Lucas nodded and looked to Kira and Arc. "Excellent. I'd like to regroup. And Kira, you said there's a way to contact Wyndom and David? Let's get everyone together and update each other. Are you two ready?" The Fallen King smiled, anticipating stepping foot back into Heaven.

Arc would would stand his ground unflinching, as Kira began to show off his technique. The Legendary Devil could only shake his head and let out a low sigh as the Orb Mines began to explode. "Less like Inferno and more like Oni. Foolishly showing off to anyone and everyone without reason." While the explosions were so much like Inferno, Oni once had an explosive technique that he used quite frequently.
As Lucas held his conversation with General Grants, Arc would slowly walk towards him extending his arm and opening the hand of Gokin revealing the Dragon Orb that had created the portal they went through. The heat of the orb had already dissipated throughout the Gokin and was cooled off enough to return it to Lucas. When he asked if they were ready Arc would only nod.

Kira would open his eyes to see Arc hand over the orb towards Lucas, and Kira would sit up as he pat the dirt off. "If it's alright could i get that back, Lucas?" Kira would walk over as he extended his left hand to get the half of the orb back. "Grants has the only means to contact Wyndom, but i can take us to them, using the same trick that got you here." Smiling he would use his right hand to dig into the pouch to show the orb off once more he used to contact Grants, and would inhale for a moment then exhale to relax. "Oh Grants, for us to come through make sure your in an open area, and place the orb on the ground when your ready, just lemme know before you do so i can activate the portal."
Kira would hold onto the orb as he looks back towards Lucas. "Once the orb is whole again, it'll lead to my realm in-case thing's ever got really bad, at least that one does, the one Grants has, leads towards a different world...long story short, sorta need them back sooner or later." Kira would wait for Lucas. "Between you and me, you know Sabriel is gonna kick your a** later right? Wyndom as well, lets not talk about Raven and Alettena...you sure are a glutton for punishment."
[!] ~”And the flames of defiance burns bright within those that desire it ”~[!]
"I probably deserve it this time. Hahaha, but on second thought maybe I'll stay in hiding. I can become a Hermit." He'd chuckle and cross his arms. Admittedly, Lucas was glad to go back home and he was grateful- overly grateful for how everyone was supporting him. One day he'd repay the actions done by his comrades. Regaining Heaven's throne was the first step.
The first step would be the most difficult...
"Ready when you are." Grants' voice was heard again. Lucas would nod to Kira, also signifying that he was ready. With another burst of fire, the Orb would come to life again and open the portal between realms. For a moment, Heaven and Hell would be connected. Without hesitation, Lucas would step through to the other side... (( See y'all in the Heaven thread. ))

Arc would stay silent during all of the banter between Kira and Lucas not having anything to say. He would tilt his hand over Kira's a drop the orb into his hand, the hand of Gokin would recede leaving Arc's right arm back in his usual sleeveless glove.
As Lucas opened the portal using the other orb Arc would take a deep breath before following behind him. It was clear he was a bit hesitant about returning to Heaven, but he was prepared for what he had to do. Everything short of finally confronting Oni whenever that day was to finally come.

Garath makes his way to Hell to find this Thraxore that had destroyed almost everybody he had known and loved. He finds his way to Hell looks around sees that he is in a big crater in Hell " well not quite I had pictured it but okay". He goes along and finds himself in a very long curving cave. The further gets through the cave he hears something. He doesn't know what is happening up ahead so he treads carefully. Looking around a corner he sees someone stabbing someone in the chest. So he quickly turns around the corner picks up the person by the back of their dress and says " Tell me whats going on here before you are nothing but ash"

Katerina sat in the cave, kneeling over a girl who had died in battle. In front of her sits a dagger, a gem, a cup with some blood she got from the corpse and beside her lay another girl, this one only unconscious. The process was quite simple and she had done it all before. She stabs the alive girl, does some chanting, shoves the gem into the brain of the dead girl and then all is well. She shoves her dagger in the chest of the unconscious girl, and as she does it she hears someone move behind her. She moves out of the way before they could grab her and proceeds to quickly finish her chanting.
The person who had almost ruined everything stood at least 2 feet above her, and was a giant lizard-like man. She whistles softly and then turns to this newcomer.
"My name is Katerina. You do not want to touch any part of me, because it will only hurt you. I am covered in every poison, acid and chemical you can think of. Most of which would start eating away at your hand in seconds. To answer you question..." She points to the dead girl.
The dead girl sits up instantly, gasping for air. Katerina takes this opportunity to shove the gem inside her head, latching it onto the brain. almost instantly the girl regains life-like coloring, and her eyes loose the glassy state and return to the purple color they once were. The gem inside of Katerina's chest begins to glow, not that anyone else would be able to tell.
"What is your name?" Katerina asks the girl.
"My name is Melaina," The girl says looking around the cave. A big man, walks out from the shadows. Soterios comes into the light and stands next to Katerina. Katerina turns to the lizard-man.
"These are my children, not biological of course, but they would not be here without me. Who are you?"

" The names Garath Galgador so, you are a witch I take it" looking at both Melaina and Soterios and says to Katerina " So you control them for your own means, they are innocent people why do you do this? What is your goal for using them? Will you set them free once your goal is fulfilled? I have a goal and that's to kill a demon to avenge my tribe I think he is here but I don't know I will help you whatever it is you might need help with after that you help me. Do we have a deal I'd shake your hand but I would rather not lose mine."

I HATE YOU WITH A PASSION
Katetrina chuckles lightly, the sound echoing through the cave.
"Soterios and Melaina were dead. I gave them life and in return the work for me. I can not bring someone back and give them complete free will. They still have to obey me and anything I say, but I let them take revenge on those who murdered them if they so choose. They have their memories, emotions, personality, and any powers that they had when they were alive. They just work for me and only me. I will help you and I know how you can help me." Katerina goes over to where she has her brown messenger style bag and pulls out an old map.
"Inferno's fortress lies somewhere over here," She says gesturing at the map. "Now I hear his son has died, and Inferno has the body somewhere on the lower levels. Inferno is out at the moment so now is the time to go in, get the boy and get the hell out. I need that boy."

" Inferno... you're crazy...but I like it. So, how do you know he doesn't have anyone guarding his sons body? Also how do you plan we do this, have Melaina and Soterios at the door while we find his sons body that way there is good balance in both teams depending on what happens. I also notice that there is lava around the whole fortress I can fly can anyone else? if not I can carry all three of you across." Pulls out Crimson and says to all three of them "Well I"m ready.Oh and Katerina I can feel the heat coming from you, you are a fire user if I ask you to shoot some fire at me please do it no questions asked."
