Nnng.... What are you talking about? I .... I don't know you... Let me go... I don't like this... Let me go...
*Nana obviously didn't want to answer anything Xol had to ask. She didn't even know who he was; Nana's eyes were slowly starting to come into focus. Feeling the claw to her through just made her "gulp" a little. Since this man could see her, he was special, he had to be if he was human, but what if he wasn't human, then what was this man? Who was this man, and why had he taken her?*
~.~
Nnn... Mastema......? Heaven.....? What are you...?
*It looked like Nana would need to be sedated more, or she might not talk at all. Nana had pleanty enough kick left, she was obviously tense and had too much life yet. Nana wasn't yet in the proper mind set to be interigated, even with a razor sharp claw pressing on one of her main artery veins*

Kobei landed lightly on the ground, a little cloud of dirt puffing up as her boots thumped the ground.
Taking a look around, she did not spot anyone in particular, but proceeded to walk along.

In a fit or anger, more though out of frustration, Xol struck her across the jaw with a closed fist. It was a hard blow, but not nearly anywhere close to what he was fully capable off. Just enough to let her know her was serious. He had smelling salts ready on the adjacent table though, if the force was too much.
"I can see this will involve more than just talk." He growled, picking up the syringe and bottle again before suctioning up another 100cc's of his cocktail. Upon placing the bottle back down, Xol picked up a packet of smelling salts and prepped it for use.

*Nana's face turns sharply to the side, it was an unexpected hit so Nana was unprepared for it. The force was almost enough to snap her neck, but Xol had been holding back. It definitly knocked her for a loop, there would no doubt be a large welt, brusing, and possible a broken jaw bone or at least a fracture. Two large sparked archs of something shoot down over Nana's shoulders to her stalking boots. Nana was weigning, already she was far more limp then a few moments before*
...........
*More than likely Xol would have to use the salts, but what were those archs? For now it was a mystery, perhaps another Xol would want answers about*

Dammit!! *Than slammed his left fist into the side of the wall* Kuso.... Xol doesn't know what he's doing...... *Than blinked then looked to the runic markings again*..... Fine Xol.... we'll try it your way. *mustering a thin trail of energy, Than begain drawing his own symbol into the rock*

Kobei strided off along the forest path, keeping her innocent watchful eyes open. She came across a path that led tword a hilly looking area.
Walking along for another half mile or so, Kobei came across a Cavern, and peered inside of it.
Kobei whistled highly, and stooped to look inside, even though the entrance was well high enough for her.
"Wow, that's a big Cave."
Her attitude seemed almost childish if she didn't look her age.

Taking a slight demonic pleasure from her gasp of pain, Xol snapped the smelling salt package and held it under Nana's nose. Of course it would work immediately to which he would harsly poke the syringe into her vein and inject another 100cc's of his cocktail. However, right after, some sort of arches of sparks ran from her shoulders down to her boots. It cause dhim to frown slightly, but that was the extent of it. Probably some sort of external protection device he would deal with momentarily.
"Welcome back love... I can do this all night long. Why are you here? Why is Heaven consorting with Mastema? What do they have to gain..." It was a lot to take in at one time, but Xol was in no mood to take his time. Interrogation was not his forte, inflicting terror and pain is though.
With a huff, he backhanded her, quickly filling the syringe with more of the bottles murky white liquid if it was needed again. "I'm pressed for time you piece of Angelic trash, so I emplore you to tell me what I desire to know or else I might consider cutting things off. Those wings look delectable... but first..."
Xol moved the table lower and grabbed her robes, yanking them roughly untill they slipped over her head and her wings. The latter expelling a few feather that floated rather dreamily through the air before resting on the ground where he tossed the robe.
"Hmmm... what's this?" He quirked a brow, lightly tapping on her armor with his claws. "We came prepared, eh?"

*completing his symbol, Than just sighed* Why does it have to regress to this........ Never the less, Xol, I won't let you deny my siblings a mother..... *placing his hands on the rock, Than begain working. The "childish" inscriptions on the rock would most likely start to vanish. Than was getting rid of them by smoothing out the rock with this mild alchemic spell*

*Nana's face would twitch, before she sorely turns her face away from the salts and groans slightly. A shot of pain shoots down her neck, she definitly had soft tissue damage if anything. Again Nana wouldn't feel the needle, but a second dose of the strange liquid was quickly taking effect. Nana's arms were currently limp and lifeless, as was her lower half, like Nana was paralized*
>_<
Mmnn... ow. Here? I don--- I don't even know where here is... Wha--- hewa--
*That was true, Nana had no idea where she was, it wasn't a lie although that's not exactly what Xol had meant. He hadn't thought through what he was saying. As for Xol's other questions, it seemed his tonic was now taking too much effect, it was starting to impeed on Nana's vocal skills as well as her mental capacity, now she was overdosed*
Ahh!
*Again Nana's neck made a sharp motion, there was some darkening of the skin. Nana was not really all that stong, and she was taking a beating from someone just the opposite, if not careful Xol could easily and accidentally kill her. Nana could barely keep her eyes open due to the pain, it was indeed a lot to take in. Nana did have armor on, it was part of her basic attire as a Witness, to keep safe the information attained. It was, like Nana experimental and very strong; Nana grimances a bit when her robe was forcabley removed, it jarred her wings harshly pulling at the joints. Normal attire for Nana, unusal to Xol, again she was probably in trouble. A man who's power was rooted in strength more than brains, beating Nana was about all he could really do. Interigations weren't his forte indeed, he was doing a poor job, and killing his source of information*

Xol grabbed her jaw and dug his claws in just slightly, forcing her to focus on him and only him.
"Nana. Who are you really and why are with Mastema in the Citadel?" His questions were slower this time, more to the point. He figured if he kept beating up on her than she would probably pass out everytime. It was questions he wanted first and foremost. Although she was an Angel, a race he duely hated, for the moment he would have to put that aside. Focusing on the pain would come after the interrogation, after he had obtained the necessary information.
His computer chimed in unexpectedly, causing him focus on it momentarily. Xol, the intruder above is tampering with your runic based transportation system.
"Close the cave..."
Command initiated.
The back of the cave would begin to close more rapidly now and the small corridor that Than had used to enter would begin to fold in on itself.

Ahh--! ....No...!
*Nana's eyes try to fucus but the "drug" was very overpowering to her by now. She didn't know what exactly Xol was doing but she didn't like it. It hadn't even occured to Nana that this could be Xol, for one his hair had changed since she initially asked Mastema about the man. At least this time Xol would get some kind of answer out of Nana, she was drugged up enough for certain*
I'm... Nana. Nnng... Gabriel... Stay away... I don't want to die... Nnn... Please.....!
*Another set of arches "sparks" shoot over her shoulders, Nana was getting tense and restless. A glass beaker somewhere in the room would fall off its designated place and smash to pieces on the ground. Back with Nana's robes there was a string of some sort protruding from the side of her robe. It was insignificant and completely the wrong color. There was probably another item or two that were under the robe. Nana's feathers lye still on the floor, unless disturbed they would remain there, unmoving*

*Than looked around and snorted* Typical.... he's not thinking. Otosan..... *Simply saying his word for "father," Than trembled slightly. From the darkness off the cave, the shadows around Than well up into a canopy that shielded him and the desecrated runic markings* All right... let's see how good a hacker I am. *Maintaining a contact with his father, Than went about carving in new symbols to the rock. The shadow canopy would easily hold off the rock. Essentially, they would have the same effect as "shadow walking" and make the rock fade into a different realm*

The closing of the cave is not affecting the intruder.
"Destroy it then!" Xol barked, turning back to Nana to scowl at her response. Gabriel? What did she mean Gabriel. He had sent her? Unlikely.
Command initiated.
It would only take a few moments for the cave to implode on itself and leave nothing but a crater on the forest floor.
Xol turned away from Nana and walked back to the computer console, pacing for a few minutes. She was too drugged to understand his questions. How unfortunate and frustrating. "Computer, send me a diluter chemical... and a new syringe. Make sure it's strong enough to reverse the affects of what's already in her."
The small table beside Nana would lower into the floor and rise back up to be replaced with just a single bottle and a syringe.
He walked over and flipped the top off the needle, burying it into the top of the bottle and quickly injecting only 75cc's into her bloodstream. It would take a moment, but the reaction would be unusually fast. Just enough to make her coherent without being overly incoherent as she was presently.
"You weren't sent by Gabriel... now, why are you currently based at the Citadel. What is your relation with Mastema?" He asked, tossing the syringe to the table and tilting his head slightly. Impatience was once again setting in. Add to that the recurrence of the sparks and the smashing beaker in the background and he knew time was of the essence. Something was strange with her... but what?

*Nana was slightly more awake from the drugs, she had both the drug and its cure in her system now, both swimming about. Now Nana was a little more coherent, though still very much out of it. Gabriel had not sent her, in fact she was hiding from the man. From their encocunter in the forest, Gabriel knew, as to what he knew exactly, that was between three people now, herself, Gabriel, and Mastema*
No.... not by Gabriel. I-- I'm scared... Mastema... Please save me... before I--
*Nana winces in slight pain, her neck was hurting again and the skin was darkening again. Perhaps one to many blood vessles had been ruptured, the skin looked like it was already starting to bruise. Within the next few minutes it would probably look awful. But before she what? Nana seemed to be mumbling again, maybe*

*With the cave outside of this shadow canopy, the debris and explosion wouldn't reach Than. After it all passed, Than and the preserved piece where the runic markings had been would remain. Xol would no doubt be displeased with Than's persistence. It had angered a great few individuals before. Than grinned to himself* Now do you understand Xol? I'm not leaving without her.... *Than was almost done with his markings. He was following Mastema's instructions*
