" Keeping Secrets, YOUR DOING IT WRONG." Cado bellowed from behind Kikyo, shakeing his head. " Remember I'm here next time. Toodles!" With that, the odd man disappeared once more.

Kikyo looked the door after pushing Zeiphyr out and laid back down on her bed and fell back asleep.

LadyDraka Kikyo looked the door after pushing Zeiphyr out and laid back down on her bed and fell back asleep. There was a soft knock at her door "M'lady, a representative of Cruxis is here to see you"

Kikyo groaned.
"Can't I get 5 minute without someone doing something to or needing me?"
She got up and opened her door. She marched downstairs tiredly and walked into the living room.
"Can I help you?"
Kikyo spoke before entering.

"Can't I get 5 minute without someone doing something to or needing me?"
She got up and opened her door. She marched downstairs tiredly and walked into the living room.
"Can I help you?"
Kikyo spoke before entering. Raam was writing on the wall with chalk, finishing an almost perfect mural of the 9 seals of hell "I'm sorry if I disturbed you child, but I hear your children have been... threatened. I am here to offer them protection, and to guard the palace from further incursions of the unsavory nature. I still see no reason for not using the door like civilized people, but I cant very well enforce manners now can I?"

Kikyo stared at him blankly for a second.
"You know... you're different from the other Cruxis. You have not asked for my throne of Hell, nor the one that a love of mine gave me. But you offer to help. Please, if there's any flaws please say now for I am under too much stress."

"You know... you're different from the other Cruxis. You have not asked for my throne of Hell, nor the one that a love of mine gave me. But you offer to help. Please, if there's any flaws please say now for I am under too much stress." "Where the others see only religion, I have taken it to heart. Heaven and Hell can be one in peace without either side having to dissolve or surrender power. All I want is to see the children of the world, dark or light, be one people under the peaceful banner of Cruxis. I despise violence, and I am ashamed of my previous actions, but if he wishes to stop the holy word of cruxis through vi..." His hand flinched to his side and it became apparent, Raam was injured, badly. He was leaning heavily on a crutch for support "But if I must resort to violence to see to the saftey of the people of Cruxis, then so be it"

"Sir are you okay? Please sit down."

LadyDraka Kikyo quickly came to his side.
"Sir are you okay? Please sit down." "I had an encounter with a man..." He winced as he slowly sat down "... a man from the darkness. He had such power, such rage..." Raam lifted his shirt, showing a heavily bandaged hole in his side "He had, a black, metal, arm. It punched through my defenses like they were tissue paper. The wound will not heal with magic. It is infected with a black toxin that rendered my regenerative magic useless. This, I am afraid, must heal on it's own"

Kikyo stared at the wound.
"Would the black toxin be nightshade by chance?"
Her heart was beating faster.

"Would the black toxin be nightshade by chance?"
Her heart was beating faster. "I know not, but it eats everything it touches, and it has faded my sight. I was lucky Sera is so adept at healing, or it would still be in my blood even now. He purged it from me with a liquid akin to holy essence. It burns even now, though it is considerably less painful than it could have been"

Kikyo's heart began to beat faster.
"Did he say were he was going or anything?"
She got on her knees and kelt in front of him.
"Please... I need to know."

"Please... I need to know." "He said nothing. But i felt it. His soul was black. Beyond redemption. However, I took this from his neck" He dropped a black ring into her hand. It was made of intertwining shadesteel and ivory. In the center was a single white stone "As soon as I took it, the darkness took him, almost as if it were protecting him"

Kikyo quickly stood up and paced back and forth.
"Okay... once I have this baby I'll go find him."
She stopped and looked over at him.
"I had an accidental one night stand."
She went back to pacing again.
"And I feel like a whore right now.. or maybe now... I can go find him. I need to. He's alive.. I know it."

He has gone mad with rage, with loneliness. It consumed him... became him. If you have this child, it may drive him over the edge"
