Eve awoke in a small room with a window too high up for her to see out. What happened? Where am I? She let her eyes adjust to the light. Wonderful! I'm here again! She blinked twice. How did I get here? She rubbed her shoulder. Oh, right, him... Why didn't I send him into the void? She paused to think about this. Wait, I don't have time to think about this nonsense! I must leave! Eve...You...Are...Back... Eve shuddered.

Zoe was still paralyzed when they arrived. The shadow Aun took her down some stairs, and into a cell. Zoe tried to free herself, but she was frozen in place. "Let me out!" She screamed. The shadow closed the door, and locked the bolt. "When you decide to control your temper." Aun replied smugly, his voice cold. Zoe fumed, her face growing red with anger. "I will kill you! Let me free, fight me!" She screamed, hoping he would. She listened to the silence. She tried moving but her body felt numb. She was sitting on an old cot, very had and lumpy. She tried shifting, but it didn't work.

Terrion cried out when the mist cleared a little. She watched as Aun whisked Zoe away. He will be back for the rest of us...Out of her frustration, she pushed out on all sides with her mind, and when she opened her eyes, the mist was entirely gone. There was no time to feel happy. Two arrows seemed to grow out of the ground in front of her feet. She heard someone curse and the twanging of a bow. Another arrow sailed into the air. Terrion drew her sword. There was a metalic ding! as the arrow bounced off the steel.

Rogue's heart leapt as the mist parted and Kaname cursed, his bow retracting. "Kenji..." He growled, but Kenji just gave them all a blank stare. "Zero is done. He's heading back." He said in a gentle monotone, a voice that didn't suggest that he was capable of violence. But then again, these were Hunters. There was no telling what they were capable of. Shinji's eyes flashed a metallic silver and he raised his hands again. They were in his territory now...A clench of his fists and spikes erupted from the ground where the Hunters were and they disappeared from view.

"Who's there?" Eve said when turned around. She hadn't noticed someone was behind her and wondered why she hadn't sensed anything. Once her eyes were able to focus, she realized it was the man that had captured her. "Why are you here?" There was no answer. Was this just an illusion? Eve's senses were obviously screwed up, but not being able to tell the difference scared her. What is going on here?!

Sosuke kept quiet. If he spoke now, Eve was obviously going to freak. Not that she wasn't doing that already, though..."You know you're not helping yourself if you don't calm down." He stated quietly, standing up. "Stay still..." He said, grabbing her arm and placing the tips of his fingers on her forehead, releasing the seal that was keeping her from sensing anything.

Zoe growled, cursing under her breath. She tried shifting again, and it worked. She became a small mouse, and she could move. "Yes!" She screamed, flexing her tense muscles. She smiled, and shifted to a hawk, and flew around, moving her muscles."Now I have to get out..."she muttered, looking around. Foot steps sounded, and she gasped sharply. A knock came from a wall, and it opened slowly. "Hello again young one." A voice came, a woman's. "You." Zoe said through clenched teeth, angry. "Yes, its me." It said, walking in. It was her mothers silhouette. "I wanted to see m daughter before tonight." The voice came, wistfully cold. "Your not my mother." She said, shifting to human and standing. "Of course I am. I'm just, different." Her mother smiled, holding open her arms. "Stay away." Zoe said, grinding her teeth. "Give me a hug sweets." the voice came, it was distant and changed with every word, to a cold mans voice. "Aun, I know your tricks." Zoe said. The body changed, and turned to Ben's. "Zoe, Ive got a deal for you." The voice came, serious. "Try me." Zoe challenged, sitting down. "Ill let your friends live, for something of yours." He said. "I don't think so, see this?"Zoe asked, holding up her hand she made the Vow on. "I did this to save my family, and kill you once and for all." Zoe aid, moving her fingers in a wave. Aun smiled. "You consider them family, when they dont even care to come after you?" Aun smiled.

Something felt amiss. Wrong. Terrion stepped back but felt something prod her back. She groaned as a numbness grew from that point on her back. Zero was standing right behind her and caught her as she fell backwards, hand over Terrion's mouth. He tossed away the arrow and glanced up. Elia wasn't watching. Terrion squirmed as much as the paralyzing poison would allow. Zero waited a few more seconds before she fell limply into his arms, unconcious.
The last thing Terrion saw before the darkness was the sillhouet of a man with wide wings, arms outstretched to receive her.
"I've missed you, little one."

Zero quietly caught her and took off before any of the Nightshades could notice. He sent a telepathic message to Kenji. I have another one...I'm going to join Sosuke at the castle... Alright. Meet you there. He cut the connection and teleported to the castle walls, heading inside.

Eve hissed at Sosuke. No wonder I couldn't sense anything. He may have power over lightning, but it is still a form of light, my weakness. Aun knew this perfectly. He also knew that because his power is not completely light itself, I cannot harm him. He is mostly immune to my powers. She sighed. I should have just sent him into the void… Eve glared at the wall and turned, walking towards the bed. So I'm stuck here with this guy until Aun comes and demands that I serve him again. Eve rolled her eyes. She looked over her shoulder at Sosuke and glared. At least I know he's here to keep an eye on me and not fight. She reached the bed and sat down. She closed her eyes and let her power flow into her. "I'm not trying to escape, if that's what you're thinking." She hissed when she felt the man come closer. "I will wait for him and he'll spare your life for doing a 'good' job." She kept her eyes closed so she could listen. She could hear someone outside the castle. Whoever it was was carrying another nightshade. She sighed, wonderful. She heard Sosuke move again. "Is something bothering you? I already told you I'm not going to try to escape! I know he placed traps all over this room, I wouldn't be able to escape on my own anyway!" The man kept moving. "What?!" she said angrily. She opened her red eyes and watched him sit down next to her. She glared at him and turned away, closing her eyes again to concentrate. More noise outside. More hunters? she wondered. Sosuke cleared his throat, but said nothing. Eve sighed and got up. How annoying! She walked to the other side of the room and sat down in a corner, closing her eyes again. She had made a map of the castle in her head and realized that this time Aun was well prepared. He had set traps for all of the nightshades and it would be very hard to escape, if they were able to. She heard Sosuke move again. "You remind me of someone I used to know." She kept her eyes closed as she spoke, "he always had trouble talking to me, like he was ashamed of what might come out of his mouth." Sosuke continued to move. He's just as uncomfortable as I am. "He died years ago, before I met Egil. He was sick and they blamed me for it." She smiled slightly, but kept her eyes closed. "They thought I was a witch and if I hadn't run away that night, I would have been burned at the stakes the next morning."

Sosuke shifted slightly, eyes lowering to the ground as he let out a mental sigh. He wanted to reassure her that everything wouldn't be so bad, but he couldn't bring himself to lie to her like that...He used to have a friend who was a Nightshade. Fiery...Strong...Unwavering...Everything that he couldn't be...He listened to her story and frowned. "They always have to assume the worst, don't they?" He muttered and his fist clenched. His head picked up slightly when he felt Zero's aura. "...Already...? This is too fast..." He muttered to himself and teleported without a word to Eve.

Zoe bowed her head, thinking hard. They wouldnt leave me. I know they wouldnt. She thought. She clenched her fist, the blood rushing to her face. She breathed deeply, her head still bowed. She felt as if a monster where inside of her chest, trying to burst out. She raised her head, black hair flying back. "They didnt let me go. Their my family. Its your little twit's fault Im here, not theirs. He will never forget the day he did this, nor the day I shred him to peices." Zoe hissed, her knuckles growing white. She couldnt hold her anger back much longer. "You, me. Right now, right here." She said through clenched teeth. Aun smiled, shaking his head slowly. "Tut tut grandchild." He muttered, his voice colder then ever. "I had a special party planned for you tonight." He smiled, gesturing to the door for her to leave. "Never." Zoe hissed, shifting to a viper. She hissed angrily. Aun smiled coldly, and in Ben's form it looked wrong. Aun waved her away, and ropes grew out of now-where, wrapping around. She struggled, screaming and hissing angrily. She shifting to a lion, and the ropes just grew, but stayed tight. "Your coming, your dress awaits." He smiled, and she shifted to human. "Ill never give up to you!" She screamed as the ropes dragged her away. Aun followed, arms folded behind his back. "You need your sleep first." He smiled, pulling out a steel flask. A liquid shook in it, and Zoe's eyes widened. She struggled harder, but the ropes tightened. He walked forward, and she stopped moving. "Hold still, and this wont hurt." He smiled, grabbing her chin roughly, and holding her head up. He pulled ehr mouth open, his hand colder then ice. Zoe struggled, screaming. He flipped the cap of the flask, and poured some into her mouth. The liquid burned her throat. She felt drowsy, and Aun smiled, letting her go. She drifted into sleep, her body sagging and hitting the floor.
Ben roared with anger, and crashed aorund, stomping his large feet. "NO MORE!" He screamed, charging towards Aun's caslte without a second thought. He jumped off the gorund, and flew, anger driving him. He crashed head first into the castle walls, and shook away the debree, looking around widly. He saw Zero, and hissed, moving forward slowly. His poison wouldt hurt Ben, Aun had made him immune to it. "Put. Her. Down. Now." He growled, advancing forward.

Terrion blinked, trying to regain focus. Everything looked so blurry. The fabric underneath her felt distant, as if it wasn't her that was laying on it. The sounds echoed, far away to her ears. Suddenly, reality slapped her in the face as she awoke. What the... She paused, trying to recall... everything. All she knew was that she did not want to be there. She found herself lying on a soft bed. It seemed vaguely familliar, but she couldn't put a finger on it.
"Why hello, little Terrion." A man that looked to be in his twenties walked, no, glided into the room. A pair of obsidian black wings unfolded and he blocked the door. Who is this dude...? Even her thoughts felt distant. And who is this... Terrion? Oh. Me. Duh...
"I see you are having difficulties remembering me, little one. Even a powerful phsycic Nightshade like you can't escape the effects of my paralyzing arrows!" the man boasted. Something triggered in Terrion's brain as he spoke. Nightshade...? Everything came rushing back to her, overwhelming her. Aun laughed triumphantly.
"At last! An easy catch!" Terrion stayed silent. Maybe if she pretended to be brainwashed, she could have the element of surprise. Elia... The name echoed in her head and she almost teared up. What if he finds out? Will Elia be killed? What if I fail?
Something brushed against her mind as Aun left the room. A name instantly popped into her head. Zoe! The memory of her friend's capture was fuzzy, but that didn't matter. What mattered was now and how she would escape with her friends.

((Sorry it took so long to reply... sweatdrop sweatdrop ))
Ben slipped pass Aun, and to Terrion. He changed to humna, and ran towards her. "Terr? Terr! We need to go!" He said, shaking her frantically.
Zoe woke in a room, very famililar, but she's never seen it before, or has she? She rubbed her eyes, and looked aorund. It was her fathers old room. She gasped, but her throat burned, from the poison she had drank. She clutched her throat, and the door opened. Aun walked forward, amrs folded behind his back. "Look who has woken! Its sleeping beauty!" She msiled, watching her coldly. Zoe hissed, burning her throat more. "Dont ever call me that." She croaked. Aun shook his head, and wlaked to the closet. He threw it open, and pulled out a black and hwite victorian dress, just her size. "Put it on, or I put more down your throat." He said, throwing it to her. Zoe caught it, and ezamined the slik and pearls, anger building in her. "Whatever. Ill get you for this though." She muttered, chanign into it. Aun smiled happily, throwing a brush and pearl covered hair net to her. "Put it up, or else." He said, gesturing to the vanity. Zoe caught them, and walked over, head held high. she fixed her hair, and frowned at herself for this. "Good, now, Ill come back soon for you after the ropes are put up." Aun smiled, walking out of the room. Zoe hissed, her throat burning. Aun poked his head vack in, and looked her over. "Dont try anything, I have your friends. Try anything stupid, and they pay for your mistakes." He said, then disappeared again. His foot steps faded, and Zoe put her face in her hands, and began to sob.
