Kitsuna sighed deeply as she sat in a car, quietly reading the book she kept from the library. "Interesting, never thought I'd see a book like this again." she whispered to herself. "I'm sure ryuho wouldn't mind if I borrowed this." She gently slipped it into her pocket.

Grave uttered a word, "Revenge", the missile leaving a distinct click and exploding with the same smog and flame as was originally intended. He began a slow walk towards the man, guns held down at his sides. Slowly approaching the opponent, Grave waited for the smog to reach eye level of the man and allow a brief blind spot. At that moment, Grave fired volleys into the clouds and dashed sideways. He rolled behind a structure and reached up under the brim of his hat. He pulled down a visor, showing two dots, one of where his current position was and another showing his target's movements.

Koraseru who was growing to be annoyed be the longing time of thier fight and thought he should step it up a notch, but before he could make his move he was caught with his guard down and was slightly damaged by the violent explosion made by grave's counterattack, but nearly escaped the great volley of bullets as they were shot directly at him, missing his body by a few inches due to some quick reflexes and speedy movement, his body splashed into a body of water, only to slightly recover his wounds as he wondered about the wet air of the atmosphere knowing even in Grave's arsenal could he rid of him while he was invisible to the dead man's eyes. Then quickly reappearing before Grave, having healed his wounds with some of his power, he grabbed his trident and charged at Grave head on with his full power, holding back nothing.

Jiro coming up the stairs with his lantern as walked into the gathering room where everyone was waiting for either Ryuho's return or their soon departure. Looking at them all, he slowly cleared his throat to speak to them, "I have just been informed that the tunnel is clear to all safe passage to the Zodiac Society. Please follow me to the lower chamber to meet with my master, so that you all may leave." called out Jiro as they all got up from what they were doing and followed Jiro down below into the deep places of the earth.

"It must be one long tunnel m. Jiro for him to take so long." said kitsuna as she followed jiro.

Finally after long minutes of silence they had reached a long and wide alter and at the edn of it all was a twin dark oak gate. The room upon entering was luminating by the many candles, making it feel like some sort of holy place in their walking presence as they walked slowly to the end. Standing there waiting was Ryuho as he smoked from a long black pipe. Taking a short drag and blowing out the smoke, which smelled sweet and good as he exhaled to enjoy it's good quality taste. Looking at them, he did not wave at them to show sign he was there, but took the last puffs from his pipe and put out his pipe as they soon came in closer. "sorry for the wait everyone, had to....make sure that the tunnel was clear for passage....anyway, if you're already, then please check all you're things before we go, we won't be returning anytime soon so be sure to have everything. We carry our own weight from here on out." called out ryuho as he emptied his pipe with the flick of his hand and pocketing into his coat pocket, then turned to Isamu who seemed to have carried to many bottles of brandy and was having trouble placing them all into his bag, cursing as some of the bottles he dropped have broken spilled all over the ground and kitsuna, whom was carrying too many books, was having trouble left and hoisting her bag over her shoulder, only to fall back with gentle thud.

"great" she sighed as she stood up and finally hoisted her bag over her shoulder. She looked at Ryuho who smiled and sok his head as he looked her. "I'm fine, I'm ok. I can carry this." se said quickly, embaressed by her fall.

"you think you got enough books there, Kitsuna?" laughed Ryuho as he chuckled at her frustration of the weight, then taking a couple talismans and slapping them on her bag. After she left it without no trouble as if there was no weight at all, in fact there was more room then there was before and had room for her equipment, rations, medical supplies, and personal items. "i would love to hear a thank you, Kitsuna." said Ryuho as he smiled her.

Izieixie stood at the back of the pack, not loaded down with many supplies. She wouldn't need many. "Can't wait to get back to HQ," said Izieixie quietly to herself. It had been a long while since she had set foot there, and she was eager to return. 'At least the mission was a success.' She thought to herself. 'Hopefully I’ve got a couple of new recruits here for the Holy Army. And if not, at the very least allies. Won’t Rayt be pleased when he sees whom I’ve snagged.' She gave a little satisfied grin, which nobody saw. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "She was here. Not too long ago." LaRaine, dimly lit by the fire in a fireplace he had started, spoke indirectly to Zaniii. They were inside the castle now, where they thought was the last leg of their Search and Rescue mission for Izieixie. Zaniii sighed and crossed arms. She stood in a dark corner of the room, with the pale moonlight coming through a tall window cast upon her. They way it shone off of her dark eyes made them dazzle, LaRaine couldn't help but notice. She spoke. "We've got to find her soon. Rayt will be pissed if we don't. He'll naturally assume that she's been killed. And that'll mean our heads." LaRaine turned away from the fire, now approaching her, his shoulder-length black hair partly obscuring his face."Don't worry. All we need to do is do a clean sweep of this castle, see what's been happening here. If she's not here, chances are there is someone who knows where she is." He took a hand and gently placed it on the side of her face, and she looked at him. "Take my hand." She obeyed, partly seeing where this was going. Half of her liked it, half of her didn't. "LaRaine..." she said, as they both rose into the air together.

Seeing that finally everyone was prepared for leaving, Ryuho took a deep short of breath and looked at them, grinning slightly but not showing it to where they would see it. "okay everyone if you're already, i'm giving you an arm band each, don't lose it. This arm band will allow you passage through the spirit gate, without it you cannot enter it, make sure it's secure tightly cause if it falls off during passage you could land up anywhere, so be careful. If you have you're arm band fastened tightly somewhere on you where it won't loosen, then then approach here and follow me!" called out Ryuho as he watched everyone slip on each of the spirit bands somewhere and tightening it to where it would not loosen anywhere as they slowly approached the gate behind Ryuho.

After a few minutes, they broke apart. LaRaine, getting back to the mission, turned to Zaniii and spoke. "We need to split the search. You take left. Meet me back here in five minutes if you don't find anything." He turned and gave her a wink before speeding down the right corridor. Zaniii, very confused but very content, spread her wings and zoomed down the left hall. For a few minutes, neither could find anything, but continued to follow the trail left behind by recent occupants. Suddenly, Zaniii came across the opening of a long tunnel. Using telepathy, she spoke to LaRaine. 'Found a lead. Meet me here.' Within the minute, she was joined by LaRaine, who had come as fast he could. "You found something?" He asked. Zaniii nodded. "This has to be it. You agree?" LaRaine rose into the air, and Zaniii followed. "Yes. Let's go." Immediately, They both took off down the lengthy hall, flying as fast as they could, only to spot a group of people at the end. They were about to leave through a gate of some sort. Zaniii panicked. "Wait, wait up!" She called to the group.

Whriling around to face a group of soldiers whom Ryuho in suprise not knowing who they were he placed his right hand on the side of his hilt prepared for the coming group fasting into they're approach towards them. Looking at them for a moment, "State you're name and business here, who are you?" demanded Ryuho.

Just as they were about to land, the man leading the group turned and confronted them. LaRaine quietly passed Zaniii in midair and whispered to her. "Let me handle this." They landed, and LaRaine approached the man while keeping his distacne. "We are Commander LaRaine and Commander Zaniii of the Holy Army. We come only to ask only if you have seen or heard any of Lieutenant Izieixie, also of the Holy Army. We are currently on a search and rescue/recover mission, we fear she may be dead." At this, Izieixie jumped. Others from the Holy Army, here, to find her! At once, she knew she was in trouble. Knowing what she must do, she walked out of the pack and revealed herself. "I am here, Commander." The initial reaction from both LaRaine and Zaniii was relief. Then came business. "Over here, and keep quiet Lieutenant," ordered Zaniii. Izieixie obeyed the command from her superiors, taking her place next to Zaniii. LaRaine leaned over and whispered to Izieixie. "There will be a thourough investigation of this matter when we reach HQ. Now," he continued, now speaking to Ryuho, "if you'll excuse us, we need to return to the Zodiac Society immediately, it's a four day journey for us, even by flight."

Looking a little surprised, "Wait you know Twinkle Toes? Well anyway, if you're heading for the Zodiac Society, we're heading there ourselves. I can save you the four days trip and we can be there in two, but that's up to you. I'll give you the moment to think of you're motives." said Ryuho as he finished his offer to them as he turned away and waited.
