Artemis Lylatt"Just walk beside me, and be my friend." Artemis blinked as he felt arms around him, and in the next moment, he was pulled back forcefully a few steps. "Ahaha..." One could practically see the sweatdrop on his head. "Good to see you, Kana." He said, glancing over his shoulder at her. It felt like it had been far too long since he had felt these arms around him, really. Though it hadn't been too long, he had simply had duties to take care of lately."Heh." Balder crossed his arms, amused. "Arty's girlfriend strikes again. Good to see you two are still..." He looked at the wide-eyed, crazy obsessed girl clutching his brother as if he was her property, and the sheepish smile on his brother's face. "...Doing well." Yeah... that was one way to put it.Kana was so awkward. And so adorable. Gods, he loved her so much. "Dealing with an uprising." He answered back to her. Glancing at her as she came to stand beside him, he nodded. "I dealt with knights of a similar mindset shortly before arriving here. These people aim to destroy anything they deem impure to make their "ideal" Serenity. The knights attempted to kill me because of our relationship, even." And failed horribly. "Demons and Reapers specifically are what they hope to be rid of. Even those that are on our side." Such as Kana herself, Thana, and Jake's family obviously. "People like them are no better than Krul." In a way it was true. Dealing in absolution as they were.
Artemis patted Kana on the head. "Darling, no need to taunt them." He said with a small chuckle. She was so adorable.Crossing his arms, Balder looked down to his very short past mother. "Hey there, mother." He grinned a bit. This was so amusing. He was a good deal older than her in the current time. "In the flesh." He responded regularly, as if his entire coming back to life thing was perfectly normal. It's a good thing it happened, otherwise... "I dunno if I'll be able to deal with all those hugs until later. I'll need to check in with the other High Serenitians. I've been away for quite a while. I may be dismissed for what happened." As in, have his status as High Serenitian stripped away due to being put under the Beast's control. But who knew? He had done outstanding service in the past. It was hard to be sure. "The Beast's power is still lingering inside me. It's a strange feeling... the Beast itself is gone, but the energy it had is still there. I'm not sure if I can harness it... but it's flowing inside of me." The power was tremendous. Fittingly enough for the strongest foe any of them had ever faced. "Also, for what it's worth, you're really powerful. Don't second-guess yourself." He put a hand to his hip. "I've got a few more years on you, and I am my father's son, but the woman you become is extraordinarily powerful. Probably more so than I am. So don't think lesser of yourself." He knew her well enough to know how she was feeling. Not to mention his mother's younger version here had a lot of similar mannerisms to some of his sisters, and he always knew when they were down. And he always did what he could to help.
He put an arm around Aven as she hugged him for that quick moment. "Good to see you again, little butterfly." He said playfully. "There's never a bad time for reunions." He said reassuringly.
He glanced towards the screaming eccentric. "Someone needs to cool off." He raised his left hand, hurling it forward and sending a blast of ice directly towards the man. Upon impact, it would freeze him solid. "You sound better like that." He said calmly.
Indeed, unknown to many, Balder could use more than just electricity. He also had the power of both fire and ice at his disposal. His range of power with those two elements wasn't nearly as vast as his control over electricity, but they could certainly come in handy. Like... right now, apparently."Your trials will be held at a later date." Artemis informed the would-be usurpers. He tapped his staff against the ground, and all those who used violence against the royal family were transported away, to a special prison. Similar to the knights he had dealt with earlier.
Artemis let out a small sigh. This entire situation was disappointing to say the least. "There were knights with the same ideals," he announced to everyone there. "They intercepted Prince Kaden and attempted to kill him. Furthermore, they tried to kill an off-worlder when he aided the prince, and finally attempted to kill me. Everyone must remain prepared to deal with more like-minded people." He tapped his staff against the ground, and in the middle of the mess, Kaden and Seth appeared. ...And Seth's horse, but that was beside the point. Kaden was clearly in a terrible shape, with several arrows piercing his skin and bleeding at many points."..." Seth was just about to begin treating his wounds. Where in the world was he now? Had he been Warped? He slowly stood, scanning the room. "...I am Seth, knight-commander of Renais." He announced himself. Considering his last encounter, he was... understandably wary."We mean you no harm, Sir Seth," Artemis said. "This is Serenity, the kingdom that Kaden is the prince of. We only want to dress his wounds and offer an explanation to why you're here." It was the least they could do since he had absolutely saved Kaden's life."..." Seth glanced around. "...Very well." He said, his sword arm relaxing. ....Slightly."We'll have to remove these arrows before we dress his wounds. Can someone take Kaden to the infirmary?" It would be a much more smooth process here than it would out there, with Seth as the only one treating his wounds at least.(( OOC: ))

    Kana's face seemed to light up, beaming brightly as she held him for those moments. It seemed even to just hear his voice made her happiness level raise greatly! Kana was a strange one, how he ever managed to 'tame' her from the blood thirsty killer she once was was truly a great mystery to even the Gods! It was no wonder he had gotten the rank of High Serenitians.
After she released Artemis to stand beside him, her gaze went from him to the attackers, which were frozen in place still as he spoke. "What??! They tried to.. ...Where are they now? Did you put an end to them? " Yeah, she still wasn't one-hundred percent without violence and necessary killing. As far as she seen it, anyone who tried to kill Artemis or his family, well they had no rights to live! "I don't get it. Isn't the Serenitians main thing to not kill unnecessarily? Or bring harm to others? So why would they go against the Serenitan rules, to bring back the older ways of old Serenity? " It was just odd. It was like they were breaking two rules in one, while trying to bring back what they felt was right, a demon-free Serenity.
Kana glanced back at Artemis, giving him a look, it was almost begging. She really, really wanted to hurt these people.. "I only want to taunt them even more, and maybe hurt them....just a little bit! "
Phoenix couldn't stop blushing, a slightly rare sight for her, she wasn't a big blusher unless Nero said something cute to her, which was kind of rare too! But this was due to her short size, of course. Not to mention her age didn't help ether! But at the same time, it was amusing, there was no doubting that!
"Can they not wait a little bit? " Okay, so she knew the god almighty High Serenitians were something you probably didn't want to ignore, but just a few minutes wouldn't hurt them. Especially if they were going to have some sort of ridiculous attitude with him for something he couldn't control. "You should take Artemis and me with you too..There's got to be something we can tell them to prove what happened wasn't your fault. They would have no right to dismiss your status of High Serenitian. You've only done nothing but good." She didn't need to see that to know he did every single thing he could for the world and never asked for anything in return.
Phoenix's embarrassment would fade as they spoke, it really was no time to be silly, unfortunately. "If the Beast's power still is inside you, is it really such a great idea to go to them? ...I mean, at this point we don't even know if they're against the same thing as those fools are. What if they try to do something to you? " Something to try to extract the Beast's power from him, or hurt him. Phoenix wasn't feeling to great about the idea now, never did she think the day would come when she would have to worry about their own people, and even the higher Serenitians possibly doing something that would harm someone.
Looking back to Balder, for a moment there Phoenix was a little surprised. Why? Who knew, she should know most of her 'children' of the future could easily read her. Was he really telling the truth? Even as she was now, she found it hard to believe she could ever become that powerful, or surpass Balder, that was even harder to believe. There came that small blush again. Gosh, he seemed to be good at doing that to her today. But with that blush came a faint smile.. "..Thank you..It's a little hard to believe, but it does help to know that..I just hope,uh, it happens a little quicker. If I lose one more battle to an ice caster....! " She would go crazy or something. "It's almost like everyone knows my weakness.." Sure, fire and water didn't go well, but still she was Phoenix! Her flames were unlike regular fire. She just...needed more power. Maybe then, she could evaporate any ice before it ever had a chance to get near her.
Aven smiled softly, her cheeks only slightly reddened at his nick name for her. "Mm, I had all the belief you would return..Everyone will be so happy! " They would have to throw some sort of party at the sanctuary, too.. Well..when things calmed down..
Aven was about to question the details of Kaden's situation, when...
He, and another man of deep red hair appeared there suddenly..along with a horse that by the looks of it, must have belonged to the red-haired man. Her focus though wasn't entirely on the horse or stranger but Kaden. Both Phoenix and Aven could hardly believe their eyes, this was...their own knights doing!? They would..do something so terrible... There were no words..
Unisha had just returned to her human form, the moment the threat was sent away. But her eyes would come to focus on another figure, a figure covered in blood and arrows....It felt as though her heart had completely stopped for a second, as all realization came to her to see that one near-death, was her own son, Kaden. A second later, and she was kneeling down at his side.. "Kaden..." There was no fighting back the tears, it wasn't possible. Reaching her hand to softly brush his hair from his eyes, she continued to fight her own emotions. "I'm so sorry..." What could she say? No matter what time or alternate time line he came from, he was her son.. "Your going to be alright..! I will be with you, i'm..never..letting you out of my sight again! " Poor Kaden, what was worse now? The pain of those arrows, or the pain of his paranoid mother? And considering everything, she probably meant that. Or worse, he wouldn't be allowed to leave! ..yeah..she probably wouldn't be able to stop that from happening, but she sure would try..Unfortunately for Seth, her attention wasn't on him to take up that greeting. Phoenix and Aven were also standing near where Unisha was with Kaden, and weren't so able to greet the red-haired knight...
"Let me take him..." Unisha said, he was a teenage boy, but not so heavy that she couldn't carefully carry him to the infirmary. She didn't want anyone to touch him at this point! And that is exactly what she did, taking extra caution as she gently set her arms under him, careful to avoid moving any of the arrows or touching them as she lifted him into her arms..

Annnd then, a small interruption. A angry, terribly frightening..little silver haired girl. Yes,completely terrifying she was. If it wasn't for Hayley reacting quickly enough to grab her from behind, there may of been more problems to deal with. But what could Thana really do? Attacking Unisha would only put her father in even more danger then he already was in. Or maybe she was really just trying to be intimidating, to frighten them from doing anything more to him? Her worry wasn't allowing her to think clearly to see, that they were actually trying to help him. She was terribly protective of him, god knows what she would have done to those knights, had she been there. How did she not feel him in danger? How did she not know?!
"Let...Thana go...!" So..She wasn't strong enough to get out of Hayley's hold? Her magic abilities were something else, but physical strength evaded her..of course for her age, it made sense. Especially against Hayley..
That rather cute little spirit dragon Hayley would recognize from the forest, suddenly appeared there above the two of them. "Leave..daddy alone! !"
"They are helping him! See? That's his mother, she's just as worried as you are..It's okay.." Hayley tried to say, god she really hoped this kid calmed down. She wasn't to fond of loud, crazy children. "I'ts going to be fine, Thana.. The best healers are all here in this one kingdom. He's going to be fine.." She didn't even know most of these people, but she could feel the intense holy energy within this place. It was almost similar to the energy within the Reaper realm,without the negative affects. "You have to calm down if you want to go be with him..otherwise, I can't let you --"! Surprise, Surprise. Thana didn't just have those cute white wolf-ears, she had the whole wolf form, although a small wolf cub form, and to cute for words, that small wolf had a heck of a bite! It had to be the Reaper in her! Hayley drew back her hand, with two little fang marks where her teeth sank into her arm.
Yes, she really didn't care for children at all! "...I will never baby-sit that child..." She muttered to herself quietly, as Thana ran off to follow right along side of Unisha, it was as if she were now on guard duty, if she tried anything to cause Kaden pain.........!
Well, whatever, Hayley just brushed it off like it was nothing but a mosquito bite, licking the blood from her wrist..slowly...as if she were simply savoring it's taste. Bella, the blue-haired mermaid princess's daughter, had to look away, cringing. She didn't have the stomach for that kind of thing. "S-shouldn't we..warn everyone..? There may be others unaware of what is going on here.." With Kaden in the best hands here in his own Kingdom, their worries could lesson enough to focus on the other issue, and the very issue that got him into that terrible situation. "Mother? You should go with Aunt Unisha, just in case..." It was a little nerve wrecking letting that girl go in, not knowing if she might be dangerous or not. It just seemed she was very worried of her father. Which of course, she understood. It was still better to be safe for a young reaper who was still learning who she could trust and not.
Phoenix nodded, before hurrying after them..With both Artemis and Balder there now, she felt safe enough to leave them to do what needed to be done, with the small confidence that Balder wouldn't run off to the High Serenitians without her!
Aven then turned to the others, before her attention settled on Seth.."Thank you so much, for protecting him..I'm sorry you were caught up in this..You weren't harmed? Do you require any healing? Anything at all..Please let us know.." He was likely going to be offered to stay here, had he felt comfortable enough to do so by Unisha, once Kaden was doing better.

Artemis Lylatt"Just walk beside me, and be my friend."Artemis shook his head in response. "I prefer to avoid killing if it can be avoided. They're imprisoned now." Threatening a High Serenitian wasn't exactly smiled upon. "They're extremists. They believe their actions are justified--that their wrongs will make a right. They're entitled to their beliefs, but I won't stand for them acting on them." He paused. "It's troubling, but the Forest Kingdom of Serenity is run entirely by people of this kind of mindset. Princess Alisa was banished and disgraced because she was with a Reaper without her own consent." He supposed it wasn't his place to judge, but it was too extreme for his liking."Could be a connection," Balder suggested. "The Forest Kingdom has never liked the openness of this kingdom. They could have incited this uprising."Artemis put his free hand to his chin in thought. "I wonder..." He'd be lying if he said hadn't considered it himself."Alisa has never been well-liked by the council there. She's open-minded and has been friends with Unisha and our mother since they were children. It's likely the Reaper business was just their excuse to get rid of her." Balder considered for a moment. "They're too set in their ways. Ever since Jake became king, they've been completely silent towards this kingdom." There may have been something deeper here after all."It's worth further investigation," Artemis concluded. "Once things are calm here, I'll go visit them directly. They cannot ignore a visit from a High Serenitian. Maybe I can get some answers."Glancing to his mother now, Balder chuckled. "There's nothing you two could say that I can't just say myself. Whatever they decide, it makes me no difference. Losing a title won't stop me from doing what I always do." Though it was unlikely he'd lose it, he figured. He shook his head at her next question. "The majority of the council of High Serenitians value mercy and peace. They embrace the idea of people like Jake and Kana, so it shouldn't be an issue. If it is, well... " He chuckled. "I'm not exactly worried." Meaning, he could probably take all of them if he needed to. Knowing how strong he was... yeah, that wasn't hard to imagine.
"Getting stronger takes time. Don't try to cut corners, or you'll end up all evil and s**t." Balder said with a bit of amusement."Hh..." Kaden seemed to barely still be conscious at this point. "Sorry, mother..." He muttered. "I was with Krul this entire time... I couldn't... see what I was doing wrong... I forgot what I was..." And with that, he finally lost consciousness. Well, at least it was unlikely he was going to die now that he was here. "Thana..." He muttered as he lost consciousness."..." Seth watched stoically as the scene unfolded.
"Your majesty, wait!" A priest called to Unisha as she began to leave with Kaden. "The prince is dying! Please, give me a moment. I can keep his soul from leaving his body so we can heal him..." Seth glanced towards the priest as he hurried towards the queen and the prince. "Just one moment, I'll-"
The priest suddenly felt himself being shoved back, and a sword pointed towards him, as Seth stood in front of Unisha now, his Silver Sword brandished.
"Wh-what is the meaning of this?! If you don't move, the prince will-!"
"Why do you conceal a blade?" Seth asked calmly, causing the priest to grunt in surprise. "Merely for self-defense? I wonder, with the way you clutch it so closely under your cloak." The people who wanted to do wrong in this world would have to learn quickly that nothing got past Seth.
".....!" The priest revealed the wicked looking, finely-made dagger, his eyes going wide. "He's a demon! A MONSTER! HE MUST BE-"Then, the priest felt himself lifted up from behind, and... ripped in half. Literally. Down the middle. "What the hell's going on?!" Jake, now covered in blood, finally made his entrance, tossing the two halves of the corpse to the floor.. "I was just ambushed outside the kingdom by a group of elf Serenitians! Has everyone lost their goddamn minds?!""Go, quickly." Seth advised Unisha."Kaden?! What the f- never mind! Come on!" Jake stepped toward his wife, taking Kaden (assuming she would let him out of her arms) and hurrying off to the infirmary..."...." Artemis took a deep breath. "Elf Serenitians...""..." Balder crossed his arms."It seems our suspicions may have been correct.""I wonder..." Balder paused. "Why would they attack out in the open like that...?""I don't know. However..." He tapped his staff to the ground, causing the dagger the priest had to float up, floating towards him now. He inspected it. "This was crafted by Forest Serenitian hands. Specifically created to kill demons." He took the dagger, putting it away to keep for his questioning. "Things may get much worse before they get better." If this conspiracy was true, it seemed the Reaper threat had just ended and given way to a threat from within the Serenitians now. They could never have peace, could they?(( OOC: ))

"So you..but, think about it like this. If they escape somehow, then they will only come after you and everyone else with further-filled rage, and become even more dangerous to the less fortunate ones who can't battle so well..The only good choice here is to make sure they can't do that." Poor Artemis, such a good heart, yet with a Reaper who would never be as good as him! She would always see the less kind way to fix situations. In her defense, they DID try to kill Unisha's son, and almost succeeded. As he and his brother started to connect pieces together, Kana just stood there silent now, this discussion was past her..
"Hm..That's what we all thought, and we also didn't ever think something like THIS mess would happen. Our own people can't be trusted, as it is I would still be cautious of them. " She crossed her arms, he was stubborn, just like his father. "If you won't bring me with you, then...I'll wait fifteen minutes, and if you don't come back, i'll be there myself. " So threatening!..Not..It was so cute, Phoenix trying to be so serious with her much, much older, more powerful son who could probably take on the world if he wanted to alone!
"Heh, Aww. You don't think i'd make an awesome evil mom? " She joked, probably not the best time for jokes, but hey. This was Phoenix.It was funny though, considering her...past with Chippy. That was anything but awesome! It was quite disgraceful, if anything.
"Shh. It's okay, Kaden. We all make mistakes, No one holds anything against you here. Were your family, and love you more then anything. You've been forgiven from the start. " Of Krul's manipulation, of course. Sighing softly, Kaden would soon lose consciousness. It was..better he did, he had to have been in so much unimaginable pain, sleeping would at least help to keep him from suffering further...
As she began to proceed her way to the infirmary, a voice stopped her suddenly. A priest? "..No, we can't. The arrows..." They would have to be removed before any healing was done. Did he not see that much?
In the next moment, Seth was in front of her with a sword pointed toward the priest. Her sky-blue eyes narrowed into the priest's direction, she may not have known Seth well, at all, but she did feel she should trust his judgment. In all this mess, and with Kaden in her arms, she wasn't taking any chances. The priest would soon reveal the weapon that would have been used, had Seth not caught on. ..
That's when...the bloody sight of said priest, was ripped in half by her wonderful, loving husband. One might think Unisha was used to seeing these kinds of things, but really, she wasn't! Who could ever get used to that kind of sight?! ...She had to put that past her, though. If there were anymore like that priest, there may be a lot more of that happening. This whole situation had become so terribly out of control, the elf Serenitians were in on this? Where was Alisa? Was she safe? The questions ran through her already stressed mind, and all she could be glad about was that Jake was unharmed from his encounter... "Thank you.." Unisha whispered to Seth, the moment Jake would take Kaden from her arms..He was much faster then her, and Kaden's father! Of course she didn't mind him taking him. The quicker he got to the infirmary the better. Unisha of course, followed after them.
"...Should I find Emerald? She may know something..." She was part of the forest Serenitians, but she also was a sort of loner, who remained in her own home in a small forest. She hardly was seen these days, but, she could still know something, anything that might help...

Artemis Lylatt"Just walk beside me, and be my friend.""The likelihood of theme escaping is low at best," Artemis assured her. "And if such a thing were to happen, I will deal with it then. I have a strategy prepared for most situations." He was a smart one--there was no wonder he was a High Serenitian. Even being such a recent addition, he had already helped a considerable amount."Ever since Jake was put on the throne, tensions have been a bit high here and there. It was easy to see this would happen. Some people can't be reasoned with." Balder said with a small shrug. "Didn't help that nothing was done about them," Not that there was much that could be done, but it certainly seemed like the royals could care less how they felt about that drastic change in leadership. "Be where? Do you know where the High Serenitians gather?" He grinned a bit. it would be funny if she hadn't even thought that far ahead.
"You? Evil?" He couldn't help but chuckle. Something about the idea of his tiny past mother being evil was so funny to me. "Well, dad'd probably like it." He drew his katana, stabbing it upward, piercing a volleyball right as it appeared. Lowering the sword, he pulled off the deflated ball, tossing it aside. "Real original." He said to the air. ...Then he stepped to the side as a heavy spiked metal ball fell straight down where Balder had been just a moment before. "That's a bit better." He said with a laugh.Then came the scene where another--this time, a holy man--tried to assassinate the prince and failed. Thanks in no small part to the watchful eye of the Silver Knight, it seemed. "...I must visit the Forest Kingdom now. I need all the information I can get." Artemis said."I'll be meeting with the High Serenitian council. If anything happens though, let me know right away. I'll be there."Artemis nodded, before turning towards Seth. "I apologize that I must be on my way. You may stay here for the time being if you wish, and someone will explain your situation to you.""..." Seth shook his head. "I am aware that I'm in an unfamiliar land. I am searching for King Ephraim and Princess Eirika of Renais. Might you know their whereabouts?""Ephraim... He's the strongest human in this world. He lives in Marvel City. As for Eirika, I cannot say."Strongest human in this world? Yeah, that was about right. That had to be him. "Is there a map that I can use to lead me to Marvel City?" Artemis nodded in response, tapping his staff onto the ground and summoning a map of Gaia--with several new locations marked, including the current location of Serenity and Marvel. "...You have my thanks." Seth was all too aware this could lead to a trap, but at this point, it was the best thing he had to go off of. Yes, these people seemed trustworthy, however... he couldn't help but be wary. "If you have no further need of me, I'll be on my way." He said, taking his horse by the reins and beginning to lead it out towards the exit...
There was no rest for one of his station--especially not now that he had learned where Ephraim may be. Not until he found him. And he could only hope Eirika was with him... If she was here, that's likely where she would be. Had no one interrupt him, he would mount his horse and be on his way, following the map provided to him...(( OOC: ))

Kana's greatest challenge in life would be ever having even the slightest chance of changing Artemis's mind about something he was so serious about. Well, all couples had their differences, for sure. It was amazing how well they could handle those differences considering how different they were. Artemis was like the light of the world, and Kana, the darkness that tried and failed to put a little of that light out!
"Hm..this is all so stupid. They can't just accept the way things are now without throwing fits.." As if it was that simple to accept! "Hmm? How else would I get there? My locating your presence, and teleporting there. Silly Balder.." She grinned right back at him. "They can't block the royals from getting there! " She felt so smart. Her confidant look was just to funny.It would probably be even funnier when she realized that somehow, they DID manage to block her out.
"Of course he would.." Phoenix grinned again, snickering as the volleyball came down toward Balder. Those classic moments never got old, but the spiked metal ball was another level she didn't completely feel comfortable with! "Nero! What did I say about using spiked metal balls on your kids??" Another voice spoke, a familiar one at that. It was everyone's favorite person, Phoenix from the future, who appeared suddenly, with her arms wrapped around Balder from behind in a rather silly protective manor.."Nothing can keep my darlings down, like ....me! We will always rise from the ashes.." Younger Phoenix rolled her eyes, this was soo the time to be funny! Not! Future Phoenix then let go of her son, only to give him a little kiss on the cheek! Way to embarrass him, but hey, she could. He kind of did just come back to life! "Powerful, you say? " Phoenix smirked, crossing her arms. How did THAT person there in front of her seriously become as powerful as Balder said? How was that goofy idiot even her?!?

As everything seemed to calm within the walls of Serenity castle, and everyone having been busy with their own situations there, Bella left quietly. It felt strange, most people there didn't even know who she was, so she kind of felt...a little out of place. There was to much going on there right now, so she decided it best not to disturb anyone and leave for the town.. At least, she could help a little by looking out for any suspicious activity, there were very likely many more within the town against the royals, but doing the smart thing by not making a scene. At least not yet. Maybe they had something bigger planned, who knew. Whatever the case was, this seemed to be the best idea in order to help out.
It would take some time. A lot of time....this town was massive!

Artemis Lylatt"Just walk beside me, and be my friend."Artemis patted Kana on the head, with a small smile. "You'll come to see my way of thinking in time," They both wanted to change each other's viewpoint it seemed. "I've already done a decent enough job of that, haven't I?" There was no question that Kana was extremely different ever since she met Artemis--for the better. Leaning forward, he kissed her on the forehead. "But no matter what, I will always love you. Even if we disagreed on everything else in the world." These two were so adorable."Heh." Balder crossed his arms. "The place the High Serenitians reside at isn't somewhere you can just go. Unless you are one, you have to be summoned there. By them, or, well... father could do it." He shrugged. "It's technically Nero's place, but it's where the High Serenitians live for the most part. Apotheosis. Though he probably wouldn't teleport you there if he could avoid it."I can do as I please, woman, Nero thought back to the older Phoenix. And there's nothing you can do about it. Oh yes, he wasn't being obvious at all. Also, can you tell Aven to come here and kick out her girlfriend? She's being a nuisance. If she keeps it up, I'm teleporting her into the water. That part Aven would be able to hear.As Bella rounded to an empty street, she would soon see a man step out a small distance in front of her. "...Ah, the strongest human's daughter." The man said, smirking a bit. Behind her, another man would appear, to keep her from running away. "Wonder what your dear ol' dad would do to make sure you stay safe..." And three more appeared, going to encircle her. "Would he help us kill those wretched demons? He's the one that killed Krul. That spear of his would make quick work of Jake's family, wouldn't it...?" This didn't look good... (( OOC: ))

Isaac One of the men surrounding Bella would shout to grab her, and one of the other ones stepped towards her... only to suddenly double over with a gasp, as though he had been struck in the gut.
"...What?! What's your problem?"
"Something- kuh!" The man was then apparently knocked back by the same unseen force.
"Quit playing around and get- GAH!" Another was knocked over, falling unconscious.
"What the...?!" The remaining three men began to back away from Bella wearily. "Is this her...? M-maybe her being the daughter of the strongest human..." Maybe some of that strength was passed down to her?
Then, a very blue figure appeared there in front of Bella, standing protectively and narrowing his eyes at the three. Apparently he had been... invisible.
"What?! A Reaper!" There was no mistaking it--he had the presence of a Reaper. And yet they hadn't sensed his presence at all. It seemed his invisibility powers affected more than just his appearance. The three began to rush at him...
"..." The blue haired boy twirled one of his twin guns on his finger, firing towards the ground in the middle of the three men. They stopped, seeming amused that he apparently missed. ...Then, a large black portal appeared below them, and in the next moment, several small blue beams of energy shot up from the portal in a rapid fire. The three Serenitians twitched severely as they were struck by the beams, and in the next moment, the portal was gone, and the men collapsed, apparently unconscious. The beams of energy had entirely drained their energy and forced them into unconsciousness.
"..." Twirling his pistols, he holstered them, before turning to face Bella. "..." He let out a soft sigh. "...Bella... Don't you know it's dangerous to go off on your own? What if I wasn't here...?" ...And that was when it became obvious he had been stalking her for... a while now.
Indeed, the idea that he "wouldn't be there" was basically ridiculous, as Bella would likely know. Even when it seemed he wasn't there, he was almost always following her while cloaked in his invisibility.
He was... a bit anti-social. ...More like socially awkward, really. This made it easier for him. And when it came to this kingdom... it was probably best he try to stay cloaked.
"I don't know how much I really like this place..." He muttered, glancing around. "Feel like people'll judge me just because of what I am. Try to kill me." Keyword being try. (( OOC: ))

Kana grinned playfully, crossing her arms. "And what if I don't see your way? Will you still love me even then? I'm not so sure I can make all my evvvil ways go away completely! One of us has to have a cruel spot in us! You're to sweet and peaceful, people'll take advantage, and that's where I can come in to teach them a painful lesson. " Her grin widened.Kana was such a treat!
"....." Grr, that was kinda embarassing. But! She was Phoenix. She could get there, darn it! Especially if it was Nero's place.Ha! What a joke, to believe he wouldn't let her there. He would most certainly, with a little Phoenix magic, of course. "We'll see about that.." Phoenix grinned.
"Do you want some punishment, little Nero? Hmm...I guess you have your punishment after all..." He would hear her laughing. "No, Aven. Stay here. Your daddy needs a good punishment. Soleiel is perfect for that. He,hehehe..." Yep, that older Phoenix was most certainly a bit more crazy and silly then her younger one there. "He won't teleport her into the water, ether. She's with Sakura.." So for now she was safe! At least she would like to think she was!

Bella hesitated, at the appearance of the unknown man in the distance. She would rather not get any closer, and she also didn't want to find herself in a situation that might call for a battle, as she wasn't quite cut out for that kind of thing. "..." She turned slightly, as the other three would start to surround her. "...Are you not Serenitian? ..Think about what you are saying. You value the old, peaceful ways of Serenity. But yet, you wish to bring harm to innocent people? That is in no way the way of the Serenitians..Please don't do something you will only regret.." She sighed, trying to keep her eyes on the lot of them, a little hard to do as they were encircleing her. "My father would never do wrong. He would never harm, or take a life of someone good, much less his friends. Nothing you do to me will ever change his mind into going so low. Do you understand? It's a losing battle. No matter what you do. " She seemed so calm, strangely enough. Only a short time ago, she was hiding in fear behind Unisha! Now, she was completely serious, and very aware of her situation. She knew this was no time to show fear and cower, she had to remain calm no matter how frightened she truly was!
Then, one of the men attempted to grab her, while another made a step toward her....only to find himself in pain. "....I'm sorry, I told you your choice's would be regretted..." She tried to hide the fact that she was almost smiling! It only took the one man in sudden pain for her to figure out what was going on, and sure enough, her knight in blue would appear there right in front of her. Oh,these boys were going to get it now!
"Hello there, Issac.." She said with a small amused giggle. He was so cool, she couldn't help herself sometimes! In only a few seconds, he had them unconscious with little trouble at all. "He,he...But, aren't you always? I wasn't sure at first..but..You almost always are. Though honestly, I didn't think there would be any danger walking in Serenity's own town..I thought I could help by looking out and listening for any suspicious activities..I didn't think it would be dangerous if they are only after the Wolve family, but it seems my father has gotten into some trouble himself.." That just made her question how many more were out there with the same motives as these men. "If you are more comfortable keeping yourself cloaked, then I don't mind. I also don't mind if we walk together, and let them judge us both. I'm quite proud to be walking side by side with you, Issac. " She smiled at him, then..just..hugged him! "It didn't take you very long to find me, and I only just recently got here myself. You are always so amazing!"

IsaacCrossing his arms, Isaac raised an eyebrow. "...Hello, Bella." He said flatly in response. Her giggle was so adorable, but he had to try to look all disappointed and upset and... whatever. "Well, I try, but... you still shouldn't take unnecessary risks if you can avoid it. Especially after what just happened, the city's probably in a state of high tension." He paused a moment. '...You were looking for suspicious activities and didn't think that would be dangerous?" Did she think if she was discovered witnessing suspicious things no one would care? They'd just let her mosey on with her day? "Though I suppose I can't blame you for thinking this place would be mostly safe. It is Serenity. It's supposed to be." But that seemed to be less and less true the more time went on.
At her next words, he uncrossed his arms. "I think if I just walked around here normally I'd be attacked, not just judged. I'm a Reaper after all. And I don't want you getting targeted by association." Not that he didn't believe he could handle any conflicts, but if those conflicts could be avoided that would be preferable. "Iunno why you'd want to walk beside me. I think it's better if I stay behind you..." ...That could be taken in a way he didn't intend it to. Or did he? He did tend to walk behind her a majority of the time. "..?!" Then she just hugged him. He blinked, feeling his face go red. "Uh, a-alright..." Gods, she was such a cute girl. And in that outfit, did she expect him to not get nervous at her getting so close? "Ahaha, yeah, we're BFFs and all... great." He patted her on the head. "Youcanletgoofmenow." He felt like he was going to start sweating from this nervousness. ...He was quite an awkward thing."Do you know what unconditional love means, Kana? Because that's what I have for you." Artemis said with some seriousness. "Even if we were still on opposing sides I would still love you. You're the brightest light in my life. You're more than I could ever hope for. I only wish I could convey in words how I feel about you... or I could do more." He sighed softly. He could be a touch severe at times, it seemed. "Try to keep the painful lessons to a minimum unless you have to. I'd prefer you not to do anything to anyone else you wouldn't also do to me. Unless you would provide me with such a lesson." His voice had a touch of playfulness there."Waaaa!" ...Yeah, in the next moment there was a flying pink and black flash, as Soleil was suddenly teleported there and hurled... straight towards future Phoenix there. She was clutching poor Sakura close to her chest protectively, as she either slammed into the poor future woman or into the ground if she teleported out of the way. "Urgghh...." Soleil made sure to land on her back to keep Sakura from getting hurt at all. Sitting up, she rubbed her head. "Oww..." She glanced around. "What the heck?! Did that scrawny god do this?! Grr, I was trying to talk to a cute mermaid." She held up Sakura, looking at her. "Are you okay, cutie?!"
Had she landed on poor Phoenix, she'd blink, looking down at her. "...Ohmygods, I landed on a cute girl." She smiled. "Whoa, you look so cool... and so hot...! Ehehehe!"Well, I didn't teleport her into the water. So you were correct. They would hear in their head now.(( OOC: ))
