It hadn't taken Shade long to make her way to the castle. She hadn't shadow traveled, but walked the way there, phasing through the solid doors and walls she needed to to get to the room. She'd apologize to Kain later, not that it do much good she'd figure. She was trespassing after all, though she did have something she needed to return anyway.
She pushed the door open to the main room and slipped in, closing the door behind her. She felt her stomach clench and her nerves react for a moment as she looked at Lucian. For a moment she questioned why she'd even come to the castle. She knew what he'd do, or say(if he'd say anything at all). Her brain forgot to tell her mouth to move as she forgot whatever it was she wanted to say to him. Instead her legs moved as she took a few careful steps toward the center of the room.

The moment she'd begin to move she'd be able to hear him rip the rifle from his back and made sure it was "properly loaded" with ammo, as always, specially created for the occasion; for the target. He'd slowly take aim on her and only wen he had the barrel fixed on her location would he finally smile. He'd fire off a round at her right thigh, hardly giving a s**t if the round hit or not. "Reverse Aging Rounds. I figure Death ain't one for age, but there's some point where we all come into existence, havin' been made from nothin'. These'll just rapidly revert whatever they touch n' within a small blast radius to that state. Death's just a pretty girl playin' dress up n' swingin' around somethin' meant for harvest. Harvestin' those souls make ya feel powerful, or like you're doin' your damn job? Make ya feel like ya got purpose? Make ya feel big n' important, like you're fullfillin' an obligation ta Death n' Man alike? Like you're doing these souls a favor n' doin' what you need to?" He'd shake his head and fire off another shot, not really aiming. Two things now having been annihilated by means of being denied existence. "I'm sure you'll get bored of it soon 'nough. Once ya get a taste for betrayal n' what it brings; that sweet satisfaction that ya had so much power to ruin a life with such ease...it's like murder. Hard to stop once ya get started, n' from your position, you can betray the whole damn world."
During all of this he'd been sitting on one of Kain's rather comfortable armchairs. He'd remove the necklace from his neck and literally shove it into his hand, forcing his body to absorb it. The incredible pain of his cells fusing with it was phenomenal, though even as he spit blood he'd stare at Shade with nothing but hatred and loathing, oblivious to the pain. Once he felt his heart open up and accept the item he'd open his shirt to look at the tattoo of a sparrow over his heart. "Tell ya what: I always thought it weird as hell that people thought friggin' sparrows were like crows. But hell, to each their own. "Now when you die, I die. But if I'm harmed, you'll feel it too. Or so I'm thinking. I'm gonna test that theory." He'd smile and several fish hooks would sprout from each hole in his hand, hooking to each appendage and his neck. He'd then rip them across his skin, leaving himself in a bloody mess with more pain he wasn't feeling. The hooks would retract and he'd laugh. "No matter what, if my heart's shot, you're ********' gone."
He'd take the gun and smile, aiming it at his own heart. The words on his gun were right to the point: To shoot Death through the heart, which currently resided in his own heart. "I figured it out a long time ago...that no matter what the hell I did I wasn't gonna die. I ain't like Migoto; he just ain't gonna die of old age. I ain't gonna die...I'm stuck. I've shot myself through the head more n' once, tried hangin' myself, different rounds that should'a worked but were canceled out by my own freakin' power...I don't get to freakin' die. But you ought'a know my theory on you dyin' n' me havin' to follow. Been betrayed all my damn life; different contracts, Kain, Zadkiel, my own kin, various lovers...n' even Death apparently. I lost my one reason to keep on' livin'...feel just like I did before I met Zadkiel, or that Lich." He'd shake his head and laugh. "Ah listen ta me b***h. Now I can ******** this armor's given me the speed advantage, along with some other alterations I made to my muscle fiber just for this s**t. So Shade, got anythin' worth sayin' before I shoot? 'Cause you're end here. I ********' promise you that n' when you n' me are in Hell together I'll make sure it's a cold, lonely, desolate place for ya. So speak up." Once again his face would become void of emotion to the point his eyes would reflect those of a blind man's.

The round connected dead on with her leg, and Shade crumpled to one side without a sound. She'd listen to him rant about her, though say nothing in response as she moved to sit on her one knee in the middle of the floor. Boy, oh boy, Zadkiel, The Lich, Raziel, and Kain were probably having a grand ol time with this scene. She wondered briefly if any of them took bets on what would happen once she was dead.
She'd stare at the floor as the next round whizzed my her face, missing it and connecting with the floor. She'd let him think what he wanted, she did betray him, in the worst way even. She didn't want to, but the end result was better then him being in a coma with a perma nightmare, bleeding, and still under Zadkiels control. At least, thats what she'd thought up until he absorbed the stone into his hand. She'd blink, and finally move her head to stare at him in shock.
'Why'd he do that!?' he mind race, and she ignored it as the lines from the hooks ripped themselves into her neck, her skin literally ripping apart to create the jagged wounds. Two things would result from him absorbing the stone. The first would be that he'd find it damn impossible to pull the trigger of that gun. It was something of a fail safe as reaping the dead could be a rather depressing job, as was ferrying the souls that begged and pleaded for a second chance and weren't going to get a crack at one. Self preservation would prove an obstacle for him, at least for a little while.
The second thing that would take place was due to the fact that he had in fact absorbed her "heart". Like any heart, it housed a good deal of emotions, and given what was going on, Lucian would start to feel a good deal of Shade regret for what she'd done, relief for the result, acceptance for the outcome, and general sympathy and apologetic feelings she had had back in teh graveyard. Currently fear ran through her as well, not at the idea of her dying, but more at the fact that he was going to kill himself.
Tears had started streaming down her face now at the idea of him dead. "Reject it!" She'd move and try to get to stand on her one foot, pulling a few shadows to her missing limb to give her something to stand on for a bit longer. "You idiot, I'm not worth Dying over! Reject it and shoot it then if you want!" she hadn't realized she had raised her voice in fear. Her lack of concentration caused the shadow she'd pulled together to shatter and she'd fall once more to the floor. She clenched her fists as she pulled herself up. "It wasn't suppose to turn out this way. Raziel was suppose to wake you up, and you were suppose to crush that stone." She said, forcing herself to keep her voice down. "If I cut my ties, Zadkiel wouldn't have a reason to use either of us as a pawn in whatever he's planning. You've already gone and saved my life more times then I could keep track. I did what I could to save yours for once. I knew it would hurt, I knew you'd want me dead, thats why I gave you that stone. You can't kill me without it."
Given that he'd absorbed the stone, there wouldn't be a doubt in his mind about her telling the truth. He'd feel every emotion she was going through, whether he wanted it or not.

"YOU THINK THE BEST WAY TO SAVE ME, TO REPAY ME IS TO CRUSH ME!? I WOULD RATHER BE UNDER ZADKIEL'S CONTROL THEN LOSE YOU, BUT I SUPPOSE WHAT I WANT DIDN'T MATTER!" He'd flare up and let loose a bit of emotion, though it wasn't because he could feel her pain and despair, nor because what she said was perfect provocation. It was the fact he was trying to pull the trigger and couldn't. "Yes, thank you SO ******** much for releasing me into THIS! Thank you SO ******** much for making sure I woke up to feel THIS! You're a ******** patron saint; a martyr if I'd ever known one! I told you that you'd given me a reason to live; were you oblivious to how much that meant!?" He'd aim and shoot at her other leg, finding no problem in that. "I don't know what's more disgusting, your cowardice or your ignorance..." He'd shake his head and laugh, looking about to the stained glass in the room. "Because I have NOTHING to fight for now; NOTHING to live for, I don't have the will to fend off anyone! Angel or otherwise! I just don't ******** CARE! ...I was gonna help you. I was gonna take half the work off of you. I was gonna be happy...n' you decided to RUIN ME!"
He felt an urge to sympathize and even forgive her, though he knew it to be an illusion caused by the despair of her heart. As he fought through her emotions he'd begin to relax and smile realizing she indeed felt such fear and sorrow. "Y'know that I'm goin' ta Hell, right? Suicide n' all. That n' the countless things I was GONNA, ********' past tense GONNA make up for with your help...n' it'll just be unending pain n' despair for me. BARE THAT IN MIND WHILE FRETTING MY DEATH!" He'd aim the gun at himself and feel his heart beat for the first time since he'd woken up. It sent a surge of empathetic pain through him that nearly put him on his knees. "Even if I don't kill US, even if I didn't kill EITHER of us...I'd just fall pray to em'. I owe Raziel for takin' me from that world where I kept losin' you over n' over...sure, I came to only ta learn I'd lost you anyways, but I ain't helpless. N' it ain't happenin' over and over." He'd feel himself losing his will and growl. So, he'd create something as he always did. He'd summon a lifeless being meant to do as he said. It would take the gun from him and aim it at his chest as he feel to one knee, his hat falling to the ground as he'd begin to pant.
"...I had somethin' planned for ya." Music would begin to fill the room and he'd slowly move back up to his feet. He'd look to where he knew Kain was and then to the roof knowing the angels were watching him. "If this don't work n' I'll serve the first ta ask. If it DOES work...I'm gonna shove each a' yer heads up one another's asses." He'd then begin to sing "In These Arms" by Bon Jovi for her, music playing perfectly. He'd then, still a decent ways away from her, extend his hand out to her. "Fix it. Just say sorry, toss it up to the stupid ideas love places n' our heads n' just ********' put it behind us..."
(( Made myself cry. Damn it...freakin' song. ))

The other leg would shatter, and Shade would move to keep herself up on her hands. Her body shook with tremors spawned from fear, it subsided a bit as she realized he wouldn't shoot himself. As he went onto tell her he'd be going to hell she wondered if he realized she was still holding the job of Charon and got to decide that. Personally, she figured he was going though hell already, hence the situation.
The lifeless corpse had her thrown into a mini panic attack, she knew what it was for. She'd close her eyes and wait for teh gunshot, for teh first time a sob escaping her. Instead, she was surprised to hear music. His proclamation to those watching had her looking up. She hadn't realized just who was watching. The angels sent a chill through that was easily masqueraded by her still shaking body. Then he'd start singing. She didn't know he was able to sing till just now. She'd listen to the lyrics and she was a bit surprised how well they fit.
The song ended and she'd be left staring at his extended hand. Was he serious? "I'm sorry," she said honestly. Her heart, the one he currently had, would practically be buzzing with the hope that it would work out, that he wouldn't make the puppet pull the trigger. "Lucian, I'm sorry."

He'd sigh and fall back to his knees, his entire body going limp. His despair would fade leaving him with nothing but remorse, and more than anything else, love. He understood what she'd wanted to accomplish and it made him feel honored; feel loved, though he wished she'd of held off. And she'd know what he thought given their connection...one he planned on keeping. He'd appear behind her and place his hands on her wounds, her legs not quite regenerating, but rather...he was replacing them. Her legs existed no longer; this pair was completely new, though they'd work and feel all the same. He'd make sure her body was repaired, and during the time he'd hover over her she'd probably feel a tear or twenty hit her. "Y'know, if you're gonna pull crazy a** stunts like this n' force me to freakin' sing all the time...well we'd really need to work on that. N' I want you to ignore the blood..." He'd healed his own wounds as well as hers, though the black blade sticking through his chest through his heart was a whole other story.
"You're both so damn ungrateful that I actually feel a festering rage; a tremendous calling to rip you both apart! The LEAST you could do is ******** DIE! It's not like another Death can't spawn; it's not like I can't give Lucian's power to someone else! Someone DESERVING!" Unterkiel would drive the longsword deeper into Lucian and grin...though he'd notice neither of them would actually wither. Lucian hurt and no doubt Shade would feel some of the affects as well, but nothing to worry over. "...What, were you bluffing the whole ******** time!?"
He'd grab the blade before it could reach Shade and laugh. He'd stand straight and disappear from his current position, taking Shade and placing her on a small couch and disappearing again, all within the same moment. He'd appear back in front of Unterkiel with his rifle in hand and smile as he fired a shot into his right shoulder, annihilating his right arm. "Nah, I wouldn't bluff in a situation like this. It's just...well, it's real damn simple, actually. Pendant's a part a' me, n' I can't die. Only thing that can kill me's in this gun n' it's gotta hit a specific spot! Sure, it's gonna hurt n' make me n' her feel a lil' sick, but man...you chose the wrong freakin' time to try n' do me; do US in." As he watched Unterkiel's expression turn from blistering aggression to confusion he'd appear a few meters back. "Later, ******** style="color: blue">Unterkiel would find himself in a rather compromising position; from the sides he had Uriel and Jophiel with two-pronged pikes, Zadkiel's head resting between each of the two sets of prongs from left and right. He could feel the flame of Michael's sword on the back of his neck while Raziel himself stood with a rather...eccentric...sword aimed at his throat. "To tha left ya got a weapon meant ta light up tha dark n' the right's gonna put out tha light so ya ain't gonna be goin' poof now are ya? Nowhere ta open a portal n' ya ain't got tha option I blessed ya with, nor tha one yer partner cursed ya with. Yer field ain't got time ta spawn n' yer allies are...well, tha ones ya broght here are sleepin' nice n' quiet n' ain't gonna wake from their rest 'less the good lady Death says so! Ya lose ye slab a' Sin. Time ta go home..." With that, the three lesser Archangels would disappear with their traitorous kin.
Raziel, pretty blade still in hand would turn to Lucian and Shade, a bit of a wide arch to keep looking between thus he'd grin and send a wave of excess power to knock Lucian over to Shade and appear not far from them. "Nah a'm glad I ain't forcin' no one's hand n' worryin' 'bout what's gonna happen without a Death n' such. World's got 'nough problems without a million people not dyin' runnin' 'bout; I'd lose me mind in a jiff I no laugh! Nah...ya may be workin' against me, but Death's a celestial entity that all worlds really on n' we can't have it dyin' on us...'least not without the cowboy tellin' me ta pull the trigger. N' I can't kill ye Lucian 'cause I need somethin' in place ta keep Death sane; last thing we need is random reapin's n' splurges on innocent murder a week outt'a each month. 'Sides, I hear you'll be gettin' yer own fancy title...I can't very well kill celestial bein's, can I? N' I mean celestial as in ever-present all-powerful beings a' mass influence. Nah' whatever ya might consider Kain when ye see em'. So fer now I'll leave ya be n' wish ya well, but don't be hearin' me wrong: If ya need ta be replaced, I'll set up the interviews n' kick yer asses ta the curb. So be good!" He'd grin and fall back with one foot crossed over the other and arms stretched out, head titled to his side before disappearing in the usual light.
"...Well, two outt'a three dealt with n' I gotta say that you n' me ain't emotionally stable, at least not to a decent point right now. At the same time, we got Kain killin' people like...well, like Kain. N' I got this funny feelin' that Greece ain't gonna be the same...so I'm gonna leave it up to you." He'd then move to whack her upside the head. "N' get this straight: I'm your PARTNER. The guy that LOVES YOU as well as the guy that's gonna ferry souls for ya. So don't go ********' with me again, not like that. Now...I ain't so stupid as to try n' tell Death what to do. I work as her partner; she's the Captain. So Captain, what're we gonna do?"

A sigh or sorts escaped her as relief washed through her. She got that he understood, wasn't happy with it, but understood why she did what she did. He was behind her, fixing her legs before she had a chance to really say anything, and before she had a chance to tell him they'd mend in a day or so, she'd caught sight of the blade. Much like when he'd ripped the hook through his neck, and opened the wounds on her neck, the sword through him would open a hole in her own chest.
She'd flinch, but nothing more as she stared up with hate filled eyes at Unterkiel. "Your an idiot if you think thats how a new Death is chosen." she'd leave her quip at that. She wasn't in the mood to go into details about how a new Death came about. It wasn't anything special like everyone kept waiting for it seemed. Either Shade chose who would succeed her, or in the even that she can't, the first to get both the cloak and the scythe take over after her death. She'd blink as Lucian moved her to a couch, plopping her down before going back to the evil being.
She'd realize, as Lucian told off Unterkiel, that someone else was about to show up. 'Back up, Lucian, Raziels here.' IT really was a force of power she wouldn't soon forget. Quite unique in it's own way, and it seemed to always leave her feeling edgy when he was about to show up. She'd watch the scene of Unterkiels and smirk as she realized there were indeed a few bloodangels souls looming about teh roof of the castle.
That smirk faded as Raziel knocked Lucian toward her, catching her off guard. What he was said next really knocked her a new one. Last time she'd seen him he'd called her a rotten Death, and that she was lazy. Was he complimenting her? She stiffel a laugh, and just shake her head and smile. "I promise I won't be going insane anytime soon. Learned my lesson, I swear." She'd wave as he left and blink as Lucian popped her upside the head. "Your ain't stupid, but you'll whack Death upside her head, if thats not an oxymoron, I'm not sure what is." She'd move and punch his arm. Kains not so happy attitude could of dripped through the floor with how thick it was, and it was starting to make her uncomfortable. "Umm, I think anywhere but here would be a good idea. Hopefully, he won't be in the mood to follow." She frowned up at the ceiling.

Before Lucian would have a chance to respond, the room around them would morph, bringing them to an arena of sorts. The two of them, would be located upon a large circular base. Four towers would rise from the black fire beneath them, large chains connecting the plate they were upon to the towers. Between each tower would be warped version of different areas; warped library, warped castle bridge, warped courtyard, and a warped Romanian neighborhood. Of course this meant they had been transported to a rather large area. From the plate protruded a long path leading to a long stairway with thin stairs leading to Kain's throne, Kain standing in front of it. Two more towers rose from the black fire that seemed to go on forever on either side of the plate that Kain's throne sat upon. The tops of the four towers shake for a moment, and atop each a different element would appear. To the tower that could and would be considered the northern tower would be a brilliant red flame. The eastern tower would have a large boulder, cracked open with several glowing green roots spreading out, connecting to the tower. A fountain would let water flow over several tiers before cascading down the southern tower. The western tower would be encompassed in a cool breeze with air swirling about the top in a small whirlwind. The two towards next to Kain's platform had a ball of glorious light atop the left, hard too look straight at. The right would have a black cube slowly rotating, giving off a sickening feeling of dread. There was a final tower behind Kain's plate with a final chain connecting to it, though the top of it was bare.
"In invite you both to use your powers to escape; rip open time and space and create rifts! Do as you like, and by all means travel through them! Though, I warn you now...you'll only end up back here. Say you wanted to transport yourself to a southern region of Earth, or a southern region of another world, or even dimension! You'd merely end up at the corresponding elemental pillar at the proper distance representing where you'd want to go. The world of the dead's no good either; you'll find yourself in the black fires beneath us which will burn at you in a brand new way! You have my sincerest promise that escapes is impossible until I, personally, destroy each of these towers. This does mean, however, that I am at a disadvantage as well. I'm unable to use my time-slowing powers, nor am I able to create pocket dimensions...at least not to escape. This is a world, or rather a twisted dimension meant to trap those within it until there is indeed a victor of the battle! And should you destroy a tower your own selves it will regenerate and begin to attack with the corresponding element. So I suggest you leave them alone." His voice would echo in the strange world, his form too far to see with any ease.
He'd appear before them while rotating his neck, still in his "celestial" form though he was quite tangible. He had found it rather hard to escape into this world's astral plain, thus he had little choice but to be on the material. "Feel honored; I've not fought anyone in this form for ages. No one's been such a thorn in my side..." He'd aim the long, beautiful blade of Muramasa at Death and grin. "You were in my territory...granted the dead souls of the world are yours to claim, you'd of been better of procuring them without stepping foot in this damned country. If you intend to bring my soul to harvest as so many with your title have tried, then be my guest!" He'd then place the blade on his shoulder, blade aimed behind him where he knew Lucian would appear. "And you dared to infiltrate my castle just to whine and moan over your betrayal...and eternity to live and you still haven't figured out that there's nothing more to life than inevitable betrayal. And you even granted her redemption...how sickening."
"Life's not full of betrayal unless you invite it into your life! To be betrayed means YOU did something that was sufficient, or you yourself ain't sufficient any long to someone's standards. That's why all the kids you've ever had have died at YOUR hands; your FEAR that they'd betray their daddy! N' given they were all born with hearts, they'd of probably wiped you out. Not 'cause of betrayal, but 'cause YOU NEED TO DIE. N' you've known that for a century; at's why you've betrayed everyone before they could YOU! You've lived your life based on paranoia. In the end, you're the traitor. Ya ran away from your family 'cause you were a freakin' wimp, then when one of your brothers finds ya, he DIES because you decided to listen ta some a*****e mumbling on about power rather than his PLEA! I'd a' never got close to em' if you'd a' listened to HIM! N' since then I've watched you. You parade around bitching about ignorance, and fear, and betrayal, and cowardice...your whole life you've been bitching about YOURSELF n' tryin' ta cover it up with MURDER and DESTRUCTION. You're a scared dog that needs ta be put down...you've gone so far as ta threaten Death. DEATH. The Inevitable END! Your FEAR of being stabbed in the back; of losing all your power has lead you to an arena with DEATH. If anyone's a traitor, it's you ya ********' coward."
During the entire time he'd spoken Kain had turned and begun to attack him in a blind rage. Lucian had been fighting him off, Muramasa deflected each time, though BARELY each time by the final piece of Ishado's armor: His gauntlets and grieves. He wasn't able to really keep up with Kain's speed, though he was able to foresee the attacks of a man in a berserk state. "The hell is this!? Thought you Celestials were void of emotion; you'd evolved beyond it 'cause it slowed you down!" He'd laugh as Kain tried to cut him down the center over and over and over, each time blocked until Lucian would shift his right arm to force to blade to bounce in the air, staggering Kain, allowing Lucian would knock Kain's jaw off with a right hook and send him flying into his throne with a left roundhouse. Lucian would land and grin, wiping the blood from himself. Kain's blood. "N' you ought'a know better then ta touch my girl ya lonely piece a s**t. Jealous are ya? GROW A PAIR!" He'd look to Melaina and smile. "Well Hot s**t? He'd gonna recover n' get himself under control. Ready for this?"

Annette had moved to the banister that overlooked the main room before Kain, and the two others disappeared. She'd waited to see if maybe they'd come back after a moment, but as nothing happened, and there was no ripple in the fabric of space in time to signal otherwise she moved on to the fire place and pulled the log forward to open the door to the lab.
Breifly she wondered where Fuast was as she walked onward.

Faust would appear like a distorted image from the wall, almost seeming to pull a bit of it with him. He'd look to the fire and through it into the lab entrance. "An easy decision I suppose?" He'd shake his head, none too happy he now had to actually do something, regardless of what work she gave him. He'd need to calm the chimera before it could strike, which required finding it before it found her, which was more of a headache then anything else. He'd also need to kick the cage and silence Kain's demented creation before it said anything they'd all regret. "After you...madame."

Shade would find herself sitting awkwardly on teh couch they'd been on before being carted off to Kains realm. Her arm was scorched a bit, but it was mending, and she was still playing the fight out over and over in her head, between Lucian and Kain. Her right hand still gripped the scythe turned sword, and she watched as Lucian pulled Kain up by his rib cage more or less and sent him into a place filled with every person he'd tortured in his past.
And just like that, Kain was gone. Something akin to disbelief seemed to fill shades head for a moment, before realization kicked in. Kain was no longer in this realm. She'd stare at Lucian as he'd take a seat and look at her. Deaths cloak would slip from her and to the floor and she'd drop the sword as she moved forward to wrap her arms around his shoulders tightly. She couldn't help a small bubble of laughter. "We go back home." she said smiling.
"What did you two do?" Annette stood just outside the fireplace, hands fisted at her sides to the point her nails had cut into her palms.

"By two a'm gonna assume you mean me n' the late Kain, 'cause sayin' my girl had a damn thing to do with anythin' would be friggin' ignorant. She was caught up in a battle long since overdo; a pawn to torture just ta get me ta stop bein' so friggin' lazy." He'd sigh and stand from the chair, his hands slipping into his coat pockets. "The short version's all that matters: I hit em' so hard he went back home, n' he ain't gonna be comin' back. Now he's in that Void-thingy he liked blabberin' about with all the ******** he took so much pride n' slayin'. Damn bit a good that does when ya go to a world where they're back n' immortal, 'least that's what I figured our of his rantings."
"String theory; please do look it up." He'd emerge from the same whole Kain had been blasted through, back to his usual old self. Hell, he'd even have his Site Agent uniform on and his black hair would still look half-brushed. His lazy red hues were lazily glaring at Lucian. "Think of two lines horizontal and parallel. Now label them Universe A and Universe B. We live in A. Kain came from B. Kain essentially destroyed Universe B, killing everyone in it and turning it into what he referred to as The Void. He then began to mesh each destroyed world, galaxy and universe with The Void. Now, no matter if there's a Heaven, Hell or otherwise, the matter from his enemies did no disappear...we know that's impossible. HE absorbed their powers, but not their lives. The Void began to re-create itself, creating worlds where the souls of Kain's victims were given their bodies, and thanks to the power of the universes he merged with it, even their powers back. This means The Void is nothing but a bunch of angry victims waiting for the day their nemesis would return...return to a world cursed and blessed by eternity. Kain, nor the others, can die. Kain can gain their powers, but not quick enough...not with so many enemies. Kain is now in his own personal Hell, continuously tortured and plagued by his victims mono e mono and in wars."
He'd place his pinky in his ear and itch and fling something at Lucian. "To sum things up: You punched him, as you said, back to his world. And every other world he's destroyed, populated by everyone that hates him. He knew it would happen; this world's Vincent gave you the armor to make sure it would happen. And from beyond the grave, his own brother from this world granted you the weapons needed. And the SCP here granted you a reason. I doubt you knew where you were sending him, nor do I think you know how you did it. But be glad you did, as I'm glad that world rejected me, thus allowing me to return to my life here. Sadly people now know my name but I'll deny it to my last breath. I'm still Agent R:17 - Gemini, Feign Malik. Lucian, you're still a D-Class Agent, and Shade here is...Shade, SCP-088. Or something like that."
He'd then turn his attention to Annette. "The clones were a part of him. But you knew that. What you may not have picked up on was the fact they were connected to Kain, feeding off of him as if he were a battery. Without their power source, rather the only thing keeping their cells stable, they died off slowly and painfully. Thus, with one punch, this little D-Class managed to kill 21 individuals of beyond S-Rank power. Normally I'd subdue him and take him in, but it seems the Sites are gone...somewhat bothersome. Shade needs to be returned to her cell, Lucian needs to be stripped of his armor and the armor classified as an SCP and studied and Lucian himself needs to report back to...someone. And you Annette...I suppose you'll become and SCP as well."
He'd place his hands in his pockets after straightening out his hair a bit and begin to walk out of the castle. "Not like I have the power to apprehend you all, though. Not like I'd know where to take you if I could, or did...lucky, lucky you."
Lucian was insulted in so many ways, repeatedly even. The guy looked familiar other than his minimal resemblance to Kain. He didn't figure him for an agent. He didn't figure anyone even remembered the Sites. Given he'd never taken orders from Feign, he was highly confused. Thus, he'd look to Melaina. "Do you have any clue who the hell that arrogant p***k is? I mean, I think he's this world's Kain n' Kain's world rejected his a**...but he's not all that strong, barely civil n' a pawn to the Overseers if there's any left. Hell, guess it makes as much sense as me n' the other universe with the taboo-cards or whatever n' the muteness." He'd then turn to Annette and become very blunt. "Am I gonna need to punch you too?"

Rozalin would appear by Annette's side, her arms folded across her chest, Kain was gone.... how? She'd look around, before her gold hues rested on Lucian. "You did warn him didn't you?" She'd chuckle then look to Annette, who was no doubt pissed beyond all comprehension. "Annette.. I am pissed off as well, but don't worry between you and me, I think we can figure out something" This was whispered in her ear.
Nacrissa went and pounced on Shade, knocking her down and giving her puppy licks, her tail wagging fiercely. I knew you and Lucian would work something out! He loves you and you love him.. Though.. She'd get off her, and stood, her eyes glaring to Lucian. He burned the freakin' house!

Shade praced herself but was knocked over anyway, and couldn't help but laugh as Narcissa played teh part of loyal body guard. "Easy Narcissa, my arm ain't healed yet." she smiled and sat up as the wolf girl mentioned Lucian burning the house. "Yeah, but given the state that Greece is in, I'd say it would of burned anyway." she gave a sad smile. "Hemera will do something about all that most likely."
Annette had watched Feign leave, wondering where he would go. As Rozalin showed up with Narcissa she simply took the time to calm herself. "You sent him back to where he came from, but what did you do to prevent him from coming back?" she asked, her tone ice cold and hard as she kept her composure.

He'd laugh a bit and point to himself. "Same reason that I..." He'd then point to Melaina. "N' her couldn't. Figured out that's where we were after a while; that place he dragged us to...some little pocket of it currently uninhabited, obviously used as his throne there. He had power over the Void thanks ta his elemental trick, a rendition of an attack he uses. The pedestals shattered, namely the middle, he cannot reign as a God there. So, just like us, if he were to try n' exit via one a' his tricks, he'd end up in the opposite spot of the Void." He'd then look to Rozalin and smirk. "If you're so upset I can send you there as well." He'd then return to his chair and sigh, his hat falling over his eyes. "N' since Feign's back, Kain has no connection to this world and lost all others TO all others...more simply, all the power he gained from his other selves n' other worlds is gone. Returned TO those worlds...worlds still within the Void, with individuals waiting for it to return to give him his just desserts."
