When the Seraphim were done with her and left her in her room, she crawled back into the corner and scrambled together whatever was left of her underwear. "Shortstraw..." She started to whisper again. "Shortstraw..." She cried and cried. She didn't reply to Veira, either. Just sat there, chanting to herself. Just like the first time she entered the prison three years ago. But worse. Kiera suddenly reached to her right wrist, and rubbed it vigorously. "How dare they touch me like that." Her stomach glowed. "How dare they." The walls of the little room she was in were suddenly extended as the room grew bigger. "How DARE they." She stood up and her one wing popped out. "HOW DARE THEY." Kiera's body glowed, and the chants were heard with Shortstraw and Veira. Kiera suddenly appeared outside of her little room, hair flying all over the place, and body glowing so bright. "There is a disturbance in cell 34. River, go check it out. That girls yours."

*Shortstraw heard her say it and bolted off, still suited up in his armor, in his fully demon hunter mode as he rushed downt he halls and came to a skid jsut before Keria. "KERIA!" He yelled. He wasn't sure what to expect, this could be bad even for him... but he wouldn't back away either. "Veria... whats going on..." verias vioce however now went quiet... waiting... watching... this must be how she excaped the first time... or somthing close to it... wait..." Shortstraw looked to kerias stomach... the tattoo... maybe... it's a seal... eh thought to himself.

Kiera's one wing burned as bright and as full as it used to be, and Kiera looked to Shortstraw with a smile. "I'll get us out of here. But first I have to kill the people that touched me. Okay? Only you're allowed to touch me like they did." Kiera suddenly disappeared again, and appeared right behind the Seraphim that dared to touch her. "You dessicrated me. So now you die." The Seraphim laughed and turned around to face her. "You must be mistaken, mortal. I can't be killed by the likes of you..." He glanced to her hand. "You need to be... Detained... Girl... What is with your hand?" Suddenly, he was pinned to the wall, Kiera's hand through his head, small electrical sparks gave off. She recoiled her hand and wiped the pure white blood on her side. Another man appeared, she did the same to him. And as the last man appeared and tried to seize her, he pressed a special button at his side that sent an electrical pulse and a lethal poison from her collar into her body. Kiera just smiled to the Seraphim as she sent her hand through his head, too. "You have.... The-" The dead Seraphims bodies disappeared. As finally she earned a place with the head honcho. The leader of the Seraphim council. She was presented before a great large throne in the middle of a pure white room. "You won't escape again, Viceroy Kiera. Not while we have your loved ones. Kiera's left wing still burned bright at her side. "I'm only willing to reach a compromise." The great Seraphim bellowed a laugh. "A prisoner with a compromise? Do tell me more." Kiera's opal eyes remained dull and lifeless as they were in her cell. "You've been deceived. By the ally you know as River. He has told you sweet words to get you to like him. I'm sorry. This should never have happened. Your men shouldn't be dead. But they are, because of him. He fed you lies of things I had apparently done, so that you could steal me away when I was most alone. The fact that I escaped only seemed to prove it to you. But he has been out to get me and my family for years now. Please understand that he is the one at fault here." The great Seraphim considered it for a moment, then nodded. "Its true. The man has encouraged my men to do things which is against our nature. I'm also sorry that my men have done such horrible things to you over the past three years. That is not at my command." His hand tightened. "But rather, his." he lifted his hand up to his ear. "Apprehend the one named River and seize him. He is not to leave this prison alive. Also, get the boy Shortstraw and the girl Veira out of the labyrinth. Take Asher, Dante and Mai out of their cells. Tell them all they are going home tonight." He looked back down to Kiera. "I now see everything so clearly, princess. But how?" Kiera grinned sadistically as she lifted her bloodstained left hand to her mouth. "A girl has her ways." Her hands gave off another electrical spark. "Is... That..."

*Shortstraw stood there confussed, and unsure what to do futher...* "keria..." he was unsure what to do... suddenly Veria appeared and hugged his back as she put her head over his, "don't worry my dear... she's coming to us..." she giggled and then shrugged, "or rather... perhaps to you. I will be hopeing to speak with these... other thingys..." she laughed and suddenly dissapeared again. Menawhile Veria in kerias head was silent up to this point. Just learning and watching... she wanted to speak to these men... she had so many ideas for the river man...*

Kiera brought her hand behind her back as she pulled a face. "Surely not." The great Seraphims eyes thinned. "So that's how you escaped the first time. My men told me there was a large unexpected explosion in your cell. Even though I made sure that your abilities weren't to work. Each cell is specialized to the person in it. And yet you still overcame that." Kiera grinned. "You can't notice too, big guy. Do you know what this is?" She lifted her left hand up to him. The Seraphim cocked his large head. "The left hand of-" Kiera shook her head. "Well this is a bit troublesome. Now I really am going to have to kill you." The Seraphim scowled. "What?"
Two Seraphim were suddenly in the labyrinth with Shortstraw and Veira. "We're here to release you. We're not here to harm you any further. Orders from our master. You're all to go home safely tonight." A few more Seraphim arrived with Dante, Mai and Asher. "We recovered these few from their cells." One looked to the other. "What about that girl?" "The boss is speaking to her, I think." The Seraphim lowered his eyes. "And River?" "He was gone before the boss even gave the order to capture him."
"He escaped! Damnit." The great Seraphim stood from his chair. "I'm going to pretend you didn't say what you just did, princess. And I'm going to let you go. Rest assured, you still deserve a place in my prison. But this once. Just this once. I'm letting you go. Commit yourself to a life without sins or I will drag you back here kicking and screaming." Kiera looked innocently to him, then cocked her head. "Understood. But I still can't let you out of here alive, sir."

*Veria's vioce appeared in kerias head again, "sister do not do somthing stupid... remember that this involves the rest of us aswell, not just you." She quickly replied. Meanwhile shortstraw looked to donte, asher, mai.. and the messed up Veria, "o...kay..." he was confussed. "Wait so river got away... As i thought, he planned this..." Veria laughed, "i wanna speak to your boss man... if there is one... i have ideas to get the River man!" She replied as shortstraw looked to her, "Veria... be quiet." She looked to him and sat down huggin ghis leg strangly, "okay..." she said as if a child.

One Seraphim looked around himself wearily. "The boss has cut himself off from our contact, unfortunatly. We can't even get to him at the moment."
As Kiera sat over the top Seraphim's lifeless body, she put her head on her hand casually and looked to her bloodied left hand. "Whenever was I a stupid person, sister?" She smiled before hopping off the body and kicking him over. She made sure to clean off her left hand and any Seraphim blood that she may have had on her. Soon enough, a group of Serpahim came in, happening to be the ones that were trailing her. The butch one stepped forward. "What happened here?!" His facial expression dropped. "Master..." They all rushed over and inspected his body. The tallest then looked to Kiera. "What happened, girl?" Kiera feigned crying. Her wing was no longer there, nor did her body glow at all. "I don't know! I was suddenly teleported here after being let out of my cell and I saw his dead body! I don't even know how to get out of here..." The tallest looked to the cheeky one. "It must have been River. Brother, take Kiera back to the others. I'm sure she's eager to be with them." Kiera's eyes lit up. "O-oh! Thank you!" The last Serpahim walked up to Kiera and took her arm. "All right, lets just get you out of here so that we have some time to mourn." Kiera turned around out of the way of him and grinned. "Good."

Meanwhile shortstraw was confussed even more so till finally Keria appeared, and she seemed fine. And so he powered down back to his regular look, "keria? Is everything okay! What happend!!" He yelled worryed, rushing over as he latched onto her.

Kiera was barely even in underwear as she blushed. "I'm... all right, Shortstraw. Just a little shaken up. A lot... happened." She made sure to hug him tight and almost cried into his shoulder. She still felt a bit corpse like. The Serpahim that brought Kiera to them took another Seraphim away from the group and he showed him a small screen. "Do you see this, brother?" The other inspected it closely. "The lethal poison and an electric bolt was sent through subject 34 and she's still up and walking? Alive?" The other Seraphim nodded. "We should leave her be, for now." They both walked back to the group. One of them took off his white jacket and carefully put it on Kiera, to give her the least bit of decency. "As an apology to your people we have agreed to let our men fight for you at any given time. We are at your command and only yours. We apologize again for our miscalculations. And we are conducting a search to find River as we speak." Kiera nodded timidly over to them. "T-thank you." "We can now guide you out of here, if you like."
The tallest Serpahim nodded to the butch one. "River's DNA is on the corpse. We can confirm that it was River himself. Go and talk to security and make sure they up their game, meanwhile. I'll go lead the search for this b*****d."

*Shortstraw overheard the men talking and glanced to Veria then back. Meanwhile Veria's vioce was heard, "excuse me... as much as i love hugs, i would like to be back in my body please. Just touch my body and i will transfer over... also... tell the men to wait. I wish to talk with them." Shortstraw smiled and held her, "as acword as this is, i would really like to get out of here in one peice... i'm as conffused as hell, and River is still loose. So we need to get ready, he will probably come back agian." He instrucked looking to Donte, "you alright?"

Dante trembled a little but looked to Shortstraw with a big grin. "Just fine!" Kiera carefully reached down and touched Veira's head before her and Shortstraw almost got knocked over by a flying Mai. Kiera petted him gratefully and smiled. "Oh hey boy. Did you miss me?" Mai yapped and nuzzled her side. Kiera looked to the one Seraphim. "Wait a second." One Seraphim walked over to her. "I almost forgot." He reached to her neck and entered a passcode to take off the collar. Kiera felt a sudden relief as it was taken off as she almost collapsed with weak knees. The other Seraphim did the same for Mai's collar and Kiera gripped onto Shortstraw tight, keeping herself from falling over. Mai seemed to be fine, though, which Kiera envied.

*Veria was suddenly blinking wildly. Why was she on the floor, huggin shortstraws leg?" She stood up and brushed herself off, "thankyou for trancfering me back to my body sister." She replied happily as she looked to the men, "I would like to offer alittle assistance for taking down River. He killed my father, and used my mother. Then he framed my sister, and also culsed my shortstraw..." she held her toung a moment, "keria's shortstraw... pain and suffering. Also... i wish to talk about somthing dealing with keria. And what was injected into her. I need to counteract it with a serum." She spoke honistly and fully, almost as if a leader for a moment there. Shortstraw looked to keria adn scooped her up into his arms to carry her, "can we go now... please?"

Kiera nuzzled into him and smiled. "Yeah." Her, Shortstraw, Mai, Asher and Dante suddenly disappeared from the labyrinth. With some help from one of the Seraphims of course. Meanwhile, the one Seraphim scratched the back of his neck awkwardly. "Honestly, she should be dead right now. The thing we use is liquidized nightlock. No matter what species of Yokai you are, or from whatever background, it is sure to kill the person in an instant when coming into contact with it. It's a tricky process. Only our prison is allowed rights over such a drug." He then looked around again. "We'll be glad to have such a person as you to help us with finding River. He killed our master today. Something that is unforgivable. We must find him quickly before he does anything else."

*Veria nodded* "Ah i see. She has not fallen bacuse i injected her with three things myself. One being a DNA gean transplant to make her wings grow back. River ripped them off a while back. It's a emotion thing. Second i injected her with my posion. My poision is many things, and with it in erh body, no drug, no posion, and no antibiotic will effect her. And third, i also just recently added somthing to get rid of the trackers in her blood, becuse i wasn't too sure how you were as a enemy. However..." Veria crossed her arms, "I dought you can take river easily. Supposaly we are oppisits. What we need to do is put out kinds diffrences together. We need to make somthing that will greatly effect the man. He is on my list, and when someones on my list, i get what i want. He's culsed alot of pain for my familiy, i will not let him continue to do so. However Keria is a target, and as am I. Could be usful to have youas a allie aswell." She nodded.
Meanwhile Shortstraw hugged Keria, "Alright to the appartment! before anyone is seen... namely keria..." He chukkled and smiled, "i will get you some more cloths from down town. You clean up and such, however i want Asher with you and Mai. Donte too while i'm away, "your prioridy." He nodded acting as a man, a leader, and a lover.*

The Serpahim nodded as he took a step back. "All right. I shall inform whoever takes over for the Seraphim council when the time arrives. For now, we'll be conducting research on him. I think a couple of our men could have something to vouch for with all the time they're spent with River. Maybe they'll have something valuable to aid us." He nodded again, and held his hand out to shake. "Differences aside. Lets find this man and take him down. For both our sakes."
Kiera nodded to him and smiled weakly. They were just outside the inn, luckily. Otherwise a lot of people would have seen her in this state. "Thank you.. Shortstraw." Dante then grabbed her hand and pulled her into the safety of inside walls, and Asher took one last look at Shortstraw before she too walked after the group. Inside the room, Kiera was sat on the bed cuddled up in a blanket, while Dante was down in the main room getting something for her. Surely it was easy for him, with the charisma that he had. Asher looked to Kiera tenderly, on the bed, as Mai put his head on Kiera's lap. "How was it, in there?" She asked. Kiera glanced to the floor, not actually wanting to speak. "Each cell is your own personal hell." Asher sighed, and also looked to the floor. Then she looked out of the window. It was already dark, but that wasn't surprising in winter. "Did River do anything to you?" Kiera put her hand over her stomach and shut her eyes. "Just cut me up a little." This was an awkward conversation as it was already, but Asher brought out the elephant in the room. "And the Seraphim?" Kiera bit her lip but didn't open her eyes. Mai whined in her lap. Asher looked in front of her. "Three years in a place like that.."
