Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kagura fell into darkness, then found herself submerged in water, her eyes shut tight. She slowly opened them and stood up in the shallow water.. Looking around to find a man sitting against a crystallized tree over at the far side of the rather shallow pond. Kagura slowly moved towards him, eyes filled with curiousity..
"Daddy?" She called, alerting the man to her presence.
The man stood up slowly, a two toned mask on his hip
It seemed to be Kagura's father; Salem Shionte, but however his hair seemed to have changed color.
When they matched eyes, Kagura's heart skipped a beat.
"Father?" She called again, her pace becoming quicker. The man drew two curved blades, and held them in a reverse grip.

Duriono looked over to June, taking a few steps forward.
"June.. You haven't said anything for awhile now.." He stated, moving his head to look out infront of him. The sky was partly cloudy, the sunset could be seen through the pillows of air.

Kagura retreived her katana, holding it tightly with one hand as she stepped closer and closer. Salem moved closer as well, at a rather slow pace. Her heart was going a mile a minute, for a moment. She shut her eyes, thinking about what Duriono would do in this situation... Probably curse and say something smart, or atleast what he thought was smart. Which was usually a big pile of failure.

On a whim, Duriono prodged June's forehead with his index finger,
"Your lips are moving.. but nothing's coming out. I'd really make me feel better if I could hear your voice.." Unamused, Duriono turned around again. Venturing outwards onto the bridge.

Kagura nodded lightly, opening her eyes to see her father swinging at her head with one of his blades, Kagura quickly rolled out of the way. Paniced and rebounded back at him with a fierce thrust. Salem slid out of the way and planted a few quick strikes on Kagura's arm. Rendering it useless for afew moments as she winced in pain. She began to back off, to heal. Salem pursued her with inhumane speed. Catching her in seconds and planted another harsh slash on her hip.

Duriono stepped into the middle of the bridge they were dropped upon. Looking around qucikly.. A crack of thunder shone in the sky below them as a large scythe wielding creature rose up from out of the clouds. A eight winged Zephyr perched on it's shoulders in the same form he is fighting the mercenaries in.
"Welcome to the grande finale gatekeeper!" He shouted, the size of the being he was standing on was easilly compared to the size of a four story mansion.
"The hell is this place Zephyr!?" Duri waved an arm, shouting in response. He drew his dual guns and loaded them in turn.
"This is the place you sentenced me to at where you supposedly murdered me in cold blood! The gateway! You don't recognise it do you? This world was crafted by my anguish and pride! By my pain and soon you shall join it along with all of those disgusting souls I've been forced to take refuge with!" He spread the four wings placed on his back, two smaller wings on his legs and two on his arms. He flew closer to the bridge, a rather smug look on his face.
"So how the hell did you get out in the first place!?" He questioned again, thinking about the best way to take down this monster.
"Pride is a strong thing Gatekeeper.." He smirked, "I'll tell you exactly what that means when your drawing your last breath!"
