Kiera looked lazily to Mai. "The public won't appeal to anything we say. They already think of us as traitors and a corrupt monarchy. They still have faith in Eve however. So thankfully I haven't ruined that for her. But the point is anything that we say won't make any difference. They won't listen to us anyway." She tilted her head and Mai happily took all the fuss. "We just need people to vouch for us where we can't vouch for ourselves. Allies, friends, anything."
Asher moved outside and stepped through the streets with blurred eyes. She briefly saw a couple of people scowl at her. Then she realised she was Shortstraw, so she may not really be all that safe on the streets for the moment. Asher stopped in front of a store window that sold Tv's. And the news story showed a bunch of killings and photos from the scene. The murder spelled some words on the floor with the victims blood. 'The liar must die.' It read. She wondered how such graphic pictures could be shown on public Tv in the middle of day anyway.

*Shortstraw shied, "yea but having our freinds stay somthing for us counts as getting them in on anything. People will susspect they are just saying things becuse they are a freind. More or less i'm sure eve hasn't even heard the news yet. Keria we need evidence. Something that will deminstrate i think." Meanwhile Veria was in deep thought over in her little corner. She was silent, and dazed out of it...

Kiera raised an eyebrow at Shortstraw then stood up. Mai stood up at her side. "Evidence? All right then. Where do you propose we get this evidence from? How shall we obtain it? How do we display it for the public? Because it's possible that they will just disregard it as forgery anyway."
Asher was about to carry on moving when she suddenly saw a familiar face in the corner of eye and looked back to the Tv. Was that Amelie on Tv? "Former singer and song writer Amelie Madison has come into the light of politics! She has captured our hearts with music but will she be as successful as the new president of armory in the state of China? How could someone like this become so well known in days?" "It is what is known as a miracle that someone like her could have moved up to such a powerful position in such a short time. It is quite unusual. But she has bewitched us." Asher's eyes thinned. Amelie was in control of the whole human Asian armies. That couldn't be good. Since when was Amelie alive in the first place?

*veria shied and nodded, "I have a way." She stood up, "This town knows me as a enemy mostly, at least they did. Some still do I can use that. I will make a fake attack, you show up as the heros, you defeat me, and word spreads that i set you and shortstraw up under jelliousy. It will all be on the camras and everything." She nodded. Meanwhile shortstraw frowned, "you don't need to take the fall, your just as innocent Veria. No you've been working hard the past three years to change the reflection, this will make it permanate." She nodded and smiled, "well then so be it. I'm not worried aobut takeing the fall for you two, what i worry about is what you will do with me afterwords. If keria wished it she could make it seem like she was going to teach me a lession or somthing so they do not try to have me exicuted, or i can fake a excape aswell. I'm not like you two, i eat those people out there. I'm a demon after all." She giggled.

Kiera looked to Veira through thinned eyes before she nodded. "Sounds good. Lets go through with it." Mai didn't know what they were all going on about with such serious faces but yapped happily in agreement anyway. "I'm not all too happy with it either. But you know. Unless you're willing to think of anything else. It's mostly all we got."
Asher watched as Amelie was suddenly put on the screen. All dressed up in a nice dress and everything as she sat behind a desk with her hands folded. She had that profound smirk which always got on anyone's nerves when they looked at her. She looked younger, too. 'I'm so glad that this nation has taken all it's trust and planted it in me. It's a great responsibility I have to admit. But there are some changes that need to occur and I think that I'm the only person right for this job. It's time we acknowledge all that is around us, people.' Her red eyes flashed in the camera for a moment, hiding behind contact lenses. 'Because we're not alone. And in order to get respect we must leave our imprint.' Amelie's smirk was still in Asher's mind even as she was walking down an alleyway. Urgh, that was disturbing. As if she had enough things to worry about.

Shortstraw nodded, "fine... i don't like it but it is sorta the only way." Veria nodded, "we will need asher to come back though, so it looks like shortstraw is a good guy aswell. Keria we will need to make this look as real as possable, and when i fanlly fall to my knees after such a battle, take me as a persona prizener, and dont worry about being mean.." she smerked, "i'm going to deserve it after i culse so much mayham." She giggled, "i at least get alittle fun with it." She looked to shortstraw, "So anyways go find the asher in your good looking body and get to your places." Veria looked to keria, "you will need to look like you were running back or somthing i persume. Anways, let the game begin." She suddenly teliported and shortstraw looked to keria, "being a cat i can bland better, i'll go find Asher. However..." he looked to Mai, "i wont leave you alone. You know that. So go get donte and soflora aswell. I think there most likly underground already doing there thing. Usally are about this hour. He hopped off her and headed out the door, "this is soooooo weird! running on all fours!"

Kiera moved over to the window and peeled back the curtain a little as she watched all the people outside with a careful eye. Mai whimpered at her side and she put a hand on his head. "It's all right boy. I'm feeling okay for now. I just can't exert myself for a while." Kiera then disappeared from the room with Mai and went to go look for Dante and Soflora. And yet still something troubled her about Asher. It was a bit of a jump for her to kill her parents after only her cat dying. There was something else, she was sure of it.
Asher got to the end of the alleyway before she fell back against the wall and slid down to sit. She tilted her head slightly and sighed. "Urgh. This body really sucks." She flexed her hands in front of her. Then, when she had sat there for a couple of minutes, she let herself half fall asleep. For a person that hadn't slept in over a century, this was some good kind of relief. But her dreams were troubled and it wasn't the most steady thing. Shortstraw, Kiera, Amelie, her past and present masters. Her mother, her father, even the man she once loved, and Asher. She slammed her head against the wall behind her in a rage then stood up and started to punch the wall too. It took until there was a dribble of blood down her forehead and knuckles that were drenched in red before she stopped herself and looked wide-eyed at what she had done to Shortstraw's body. If only you had died.

*Meanwhile shortstraw was running through the streets, feeling as odd as can be. He was runningof all fours, he had the i wind from his running and jumping makeing his fur tingle, and everything looked so much bigger. Infact for a little while he thought he was lost and didn't reconize much untill he stopped and came to a slide. There was a few house on the far end of the city, stil burnt down and untouched. And he was standing infront of his parents old home... he backed up. At least now he knew where he was." He turned away decideing not to stick around and found the fimillar town again then trotted happily, "where would asher go... hmmmm..."

When Kiera didn't find Dante at the underground base, she brought Soflora with her to the castle so that they could look for him. Trailing through the door, she was instantly stricken down, though. "SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSS." Kiera winced as she laid there defenseless with her little brother clung to him like a leech. "Oh.. Hey Dante." She said in a struggled voice. Dante realised that she may not be all that well yet and got off her. "Mom was on the news!" Kiera was now so much more depressed because of two reasons. One, Dante seemed oh so excited about that, so it's couldn't mean anything good. And two... Since when was her mother alive anyway? "That's not what we're worrying about at the moment." She stood up and grabbed Dante's hood before dragging him out of the castle. Hikari stood at the door with a smile as she dried a dish she was washing. "Have fun! Stay safe!"
Asher was frantically wrapping up her.... Shortstraws damaged hands when she tasted the blood that had run down from her forehead to her mouth. So she had to quickly dab her forehead and ended up getting herself more bloody than before. She sighed and leaned against the wall. We need to make room, baby. You're going to have to go.

*Shortstraw wondered around for a bit before he just cought a glimps of himself and backed up to look down an alliway. He then wondered what she would be doing there. He sat down and watched, just for a moment... before he would interupt her thinking. If she was thinking at all, but he was too far away to notice the wounds just yet on his body...*
Meanwhile Soflora looked to Donte, "i havnt the sligthest idea." She chukkled, "But Ms Keria said somthing about needing to help them. Soooo, i guess we are being rallyed up agian." She explain walking behind Keria and watching her drag donte.

Dante folded his arms and slipped in his clothes while Kiera was still dragging him, so he looked ridiculous as he pouted. "I was watching Tv." Kiera sniffed. "Well tough nuts." Mai was having fun and attacking Dante's feet as they were dragged. He thought they were prey or something. "And yeah. Something's gonna happen and Shortstraw wanted me to get you." Dante couldn't look to her, but he was still interested. "What's gonna happen?" Kiera shrugged. "I don't know." She lied. If they were going to know, then Shortstraw was going to tell them, not her.
Asher's eyes bulged as she held her head in her hands and sobbed. "Why?" She sunk to the floor and laid on her side, curled up. "Why mommy? Daddy? Why?" There's no room for you, Evelyn. You've been a bad girl. You need to go to heaven now honey and live with all the angels.

Asher was suddenly hyper-aware of Shortstraw there, and she sat up and backed herself against the wall furthest away from him, eyes in a frenzy. "Stay away from me!" She hit her head angrily, trying to hurt away all the bad memories. "Why'd you make me remember?! I'd almost forgotten..." She sobbed and brought her knees up to her chest in anxiety, hiding her face from view. "No mommy I don't want to go to heaven yet." Another sob. She was all over the place in emotions, it seemed. And that was coming from an emotion-restricted demon.

*Shortstraw padded up to her anyways, "i didn't make you remember anything Asher." He sat just infront of her,"but obviously there is more to it if your beating me up like that. It's easy to forget something when you look to what happened int he past. I know, i been there. Pull yourself out of the past and bring yourself upright, WE need you. I need you."

Asher's face contorted as she looked angrily up to Shortstraw. "I said stay away from me!" Bloody hands gripped the dirt under her instead of hitting Shortstraw away. "I can't be seduced with sweet words like the other two can. I'm not part of your harem!" She stood up still with her back against the wall. "You did make me remember! You have no idea what this is Shortstraw, stop pretending you know everything. I've lived far longer than you have and I've seen so much more pain. Don't taunt me with your ignorance." Her breathing was uneven and the wounds finally stopped bleeding.
