*Shortstraw ran up to the ruble, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" He started searching through the ruble, "no..." He starting kicking the large peices around, "damn it they even..." He looked away angerly trying to keep calm. "Alright we will move down into the brotherhood and stay and regroup there. We need to get everyone back and get our numbers up again." He walked over to Keria and hugged her as he whispered in her ear, "i'm sorry... thsi is my fult. I shouldn't have took you on the date, i had a really bad feeling about it and... " He took her hand, "we can rebuld the castle. Donte... whats the situation here. WHat happened?"

Dante looked to the ground. "We were trying to find a way to get to you guys. We left the kids at the castle thinking it'd be safe there. I guess they got overwhelmed at the castle, and when Kyle came to defend us he couldn't defend the castle at the same time. The enemies took the kids away to god knows where. And they destroyed the castle. Kyle came in with Behemoth which scared them off and he actually managed to get you guys back. Kyle's done all of the pushing so far." Kiera was a blank sheet of paper. Her children were taken, and the home she grew up in was destroyed. "Lost.." "Not quite." Kyle appeared where the Behemoth disappeared, looking calm as usual. He looked to them all. "I know where Evelin and Theodore are, Kiera. They also have your uncle too." Dante's eyes widened. "How do you know?" Kyle unveiled a small bubble next to him that showed the kid Nate in it. Nate waved to them all happily. Seemed this boy was Kyle's balance. "I have a friend helping me. Due to unfortunate circumstances I am unable to go back into my void without them trapping me there. Luckily, I already had someone there for me to talk with. He's watching everything." Dante nodded. "This is great!"

*Shortstraw looked to kyle, helping keria stand up, he had to keep pushing her thorugh this one, however he wouldn't let go of her hand. "Kyle it seems you are holding all the card this time. Thank god you are on our side this time aslwell. I'll be honist was alittle worryed when i would see you again." He looked to keria, "we need to get the kids to safty, they are my number one priority. If you want just tell us the location and we will go get them." He offered. Funny... he saw this coming for once.

Kyle nodded as he walked towards them. "After this aid though I will make myself scarce. I honestly didn't mean to get involved this deep. Now they see me as something to mess with. I didn't want that." He reached and touched Shortstraw's head, transferring the information of the location of the kids into his memories with a glowing forefinger like a movie he'd once seen of an alien. He remembered it was called ET. Kyle took his hand away and stepped back a few steps. "If anything goes sour I will offer my assistance the best that I can. But now that you have the bulk of your group back I will be withdrawn. Behemoth is no longer under my power and has gone back to sleep." Dante sighed. "I guess you can only control a god for a set amount of time." Kyle nodded. "In the meantime I will be making use of my time outside my void and going to visit the neighbouring kingdoms to inform them of our ordeal. If things really go wrong. You will have backup." He looked to Kiera through thinned eyes. "Trusting however that you've built up their friendship enough." He put his hands into his coat that he wore on a daily basis. "Is there anything else you need to know?" Kato really didn't like this boy that much. Just the way he spoke to everyone else made them sound like they were all slabs of meat to be toyed with.

*Shortstraw shook his head, 'just like when veria does that..." He chukkled, "kyle personaly i'll thankyou for your help. Just remember what i said before alright. I know it may be a long time befor eyou ever appear again." He looked to keria and then Evelyn, "lets get the kids. they can scare us, scater us, but together cannot break our will power. Donte, you are the sorce for all this, so you stay here with everyone else. Keria, Evelyn, and I will ge tthe kids, soflora, and Fu." He took keria hand agian, "lets roll. We do more talking later when we have time."
Alice looked to Donte, "master i shall not leave your side."

Kyle smiled to them all. "Good luck." He disappeared into a different kingdom to start spreading the word. Dante however nodded to himself as he went to sit on the highest point of the rubble to mull over things. He looked to Alice. "You know you don't have to call me master if you don't want. I don't feel like I have an ownership over you like I do with Kato." He smiled. "I can be your friend, right?" Kiera nodded slowly although was still pretty vacant. "Lets be quick.." Evelyn nodded and teleported them both. Celia who was an add on from the Behemoth journey looked around the rubble for useful items such as important documents and misplaced weapons. All things would be great for blackmail in the future for her master.

*A blade suddenly placed onto the shoulder of Celia, "dont even think about it. Drop it." She then searched Celia, "no way in hell you are getitng away with anyhting that belongs to this familiy. You thanks for assitance is most likely appreashaited but dont think you get whatever te hell you want." After celia was clenced from stealing she was led away form teh ruble, "where cresent could keep an eye on her. Meanwhile moon started doing what celia was in order to have it all ready incase anyone else got the idea. "This is alot of things..." Suddenly Veria appeared with cale and isa where her room used to be, "didn't take as long..." her eyes grew huge, "WHAT THE ******** HELL DID YOU IDOTS DO!" Veria was now steaming, as she walked over and yanked donted ear almost holding him above the ground, "I leave you and keria in charge without me just once and the house is gone! My s**t better not be distroyed or so help me your going to..." she pulsed as she put donte down, "were is Ameillea." She turned and started to search around.
Meanwhile as shortstraw Evelyn and Keria appeared they made heist to get to the vult. Shortstraw however held up his hand, "i'm the only thing human here so only i can break this open right? Evelyn... i'll need some tools. Keria, i'll need your assistance with covering my back as i work incase those goons show up."

Dante scratched his head. "She was with us just a second ago." He sighed and sat back down, putting his head in his hands. "This is... all my fault." He hadn't let it get to him yet but that last shout from Veira did it. He really was the screw up of the family. Kyle had picked up all of the pieces he'd shattered. Celia huffed as she stretched her arms above her head. "No need to be so touchy." She yawned. "I'm just waiting for Colin to come and get me."
Evelyn shifted back to a human and reached into her pockets to hopefully get the tools she'd picked up after Celia was done working with them. She only had a few, but it was enough. She handed them to Shortstraw as Kiera rubbed a circle into her palm with her forefinger. As small an action as that was it made a large detection barrier around them.

*"Sier we can trap them alover again..." "no. Let them be. Stick to the plan." Shortstraw started working at it as hard as he could. It took him multable trys... having evelyn be some helpful eyes as he worked, he finally cracked it and was able to open it with all his striegth. "Alright, daddys here." He replied tossing the tools aside to pick up both his kids and hug them. Fu stepped out with Solfora behind him, "good to see you two back in action."
Meanwhile Veria shied in relif as Ameillea walked up beside kato, she was latched to him becuse he was animal and fuzzy. but she ran and hugged her mother, "Momma." She nodded, "know now darlying i know. Go to daddy right now okay." She let ameillea head on over to cale as she motined Isa, "alright we need to get a clean up here. Theres things people dont need to see. More or less, i can't be visable either." She pulled a hood over her head, the coat did the rest just incase the towns people came all the way to the castle to help. Frankly, she didn't expect it though, they would tend to there own first. "Donte keep yourself together or things will get worse. It's time to take what we got left and mend our way back." She held up her hands and her coat flapped open as the pile of rubble started to move and go into her coat. Soon the spot clean of everything, including the debree. "we can sort thorugh that mess later."

Dante sighed. "Things are going to get worse anyway." He put his hands in his pockets and sat on the ground just to think. Celia watched with a little confusion although was glad that finally there'd be some order to their efforts. She didn't understand how this family had managed to last so long after being this stupid. She supposed luck was a factor although she still doubted it.
Kiera instantly wrapped her arms around the three of them in a large family hug as she looked to her children. "Are you both all right? They didn't hurt you at all did they?" Evelin smiled. "Bro got pretty upset but we're fine. They ruined the nerf swords we got today." Kiera laughed, relieved. "Is that what you're worrying about at a time like this?" Evelyn shifted back to a cat as she looked to them. "Hate to break the moment but we need to get out of here."

*Fu agreed, "i fought a few of them. Luckly they backed off, but whent he house went down, they were the ones that saved us and put us in here. Serously... they could have left the four of us in there. So these people obviously arn't out to kill any of us. They would have got the upperhand if they took Soflora out, or these kids." He excluded himself but nodded, "lets get out of here."
Veria pulsed and reached back into her coat and suddenly pulled out the body that was left when he entered her room and tossed him to the ground as she started to check him. "Well the good news little brother is that all the really imporatnant and dangrious stuff i moved into my coat only days ago... wait what do we have here." She removed most of the clothing. this one had a scelital area like the rest however only his left ribs showed as a sceliten, no heart or anything inside where it should be. "These people are not living breathing things. else this would be imposable. Also... i sense a magical essence off this body. Hard to say since i am no good at magic to begin with." She took a sample of the bone fragments, and the tissue and put it into her coat, as she did ever enemy and creature she ever seen or could.

Dante looked over to her. "Well even if he didn't have much flesh. He still managed to die in your traps. Do we know what killed him? That'll be a good notice to know what actually hurts them. And it'll give us a chance to strike back if they come and face us again." Although he was doubtful. Suddenly the group that went to go retrieve the kids appeared in the clearing and Dante hopped to his feet. "Soflora!" He rushed over to them and hugged Soflora tight. "Was the other vault the same as the first? Are you not harmed?" He asked her anxiously. Evelyn shifted back into a human and walked over to Celia. "What're you still doing here?" Celia rose an eyebrow. "Unlike all of you, I am human. I cannot teleport. Besides, you lose a lot of stamina with teleporting. This is why humans prevail in a lot of physical activities."

*Shortstraw chukkled to Evelyn as he passed her, "told you." He walked over to veria and where donte was as did Theador, who decided to stick with his father for right now. He was unarmed. He however saw the body and ran over to it to kick it, "Thats what you get for messing with me!" Veria put a han dont he boy, "theador stop that." She slowly crouched back down seeing somthing in the mans pocket, "whats this..." She pulled out what looked to be some sort of golden dagger, with a gem on the bottom of the handle. She stood, "Keria." She called, "these people are also using items." She tossed it to keria carfully as she would approch, "that think could do anything." She turned back tot he body, "i'll have to find out what actully took his guy out. I had alot of traps. And frankly i dont se how many of them would effect a undead guy like this."
Meanwhile Soflora smiled as she hugged Donte, "I fine. When the castle went down on us these people came in and took up at the last moment... before putting us in the vult." She looked to where the castle once was, "seems... our home is now gone." Shortstraw however nodded, "alright everyone lisen up. A few years back we started to create a house, it's unfinished, but it can be built quickly, it only needs a few inner things. We can use that for shelter and a new plan of opperations. Keria and I will see about getting a few supplize for buliding what we will need to get by. The rest of you go to the house and take shelter there... it's going to rain soon."

Dante nodded as he put an arm around Soflora and started to lead the way to the house, Kato following right behind him. Evelyn patted Celia's back. "Com'on then human. I'm pretty sure you don't want the rain ruining your precious hair." Celia scowled and swatted her away. "Don't touch me." Kiera smiled. "Like two peas in a pod." Kiera was much more relaxed now that she knew where everyone was. She looked to Evelin and Theodore. "Stay with your uncle and aunt, all right? They'll make sure you won't get taken again." Evelin puffer her cheeks out. "It was a fluke. We could'a taken them." Kiera smiled and kissed her forehead. "I'm sure you could have. Go on now." Evelin nodded and grabbed Theodore's arm as she ran up to catch up with Dante.

*Veria was staring off into space now in thought. "Isa... I would like you to to stay with us. Cale you take ameillea to the house. Keria and I need some time to talk."
Meanwhile Shortstraw stood there watching his two kids go with donte and them. "I guess i'll just go and get the supplize then." Veria reached into her coat and tossed a small wallet looking item, "take this and go with him on a second though Isa. Your my eyes and ears in town anyways." She finally looked to keria, "sister I may have an idea what were dealing with."
