((wow this makes it hard for Ishoa to RP.. XP))
Ishoa knew the wind brought more then just Aili into the Green house. He felt the subtle lively presence of Aldora. At first he thought it was just the plants energy showing appreciation for Ishoa's care. Aldora visited Ishoa plenty of times though so he was able to give it a definite signature, but lately Aldora has been getting better at hiding herself.
After Aldora was called out Ishoa let a friendly smile twoards her but began to clench his chest slightly. Pure magic was something Ishoa wasn't too fond of. It seemed to be everything Ishoa wanted to be. Pure. Neither Tainted nor holy. Even so the Pure magic repelled Ishoa away from Celestial being Tainted himself.
Soon after Aili combined herself with Aldora Ishoa's grip on his chest was tighter. Slowly he clenched his teeth a bit. His own demon blood told him there was something he dreaded in the room. It started to boil at the sight of Aili's pure state.

"As of now, I am half dark and half holy. You will remember everything that has happened. If this healing magic is pulled in correctly, it will be just the same as before. I would suggest you use it often until it's just as efficient as it once was. Although your mind might be able to keep up with what is going on, your control hasn't been exercised in sync with it for quite a while.
Too dilute the blood, Aldora will be encasing it with with dark magic while I pour in my powers of light. You can never fully purify or taint something. A trace of darkness or light is present in everything. At most times, it is an insignificant prescence that can be ignored. I cannot change the properties of such powerful evil, but I can allow it to diffuse so it's not as harmful. Aldora will be taking it into the shadows and disposing of it where no living being may access. Because it will be diluted, darkness will avoid the holy part and the light will avoid it because it is tainted. You could say Aldora will be taking it to the 'in between' or 'no-man's land.'
It's not a 100% guaranteed that no one will be able to find or use it, but there's only a slim chance of that happening. Destiny, Chance, and Fate will do as they please.
To start the diluting and recovery of your healing magic, I just need to p***k a finger as a direct access to your blood."

Celestial listened with great interest, it really seemed thought out, and not as complicated as she thought it might have been. Celeste wondered though, if the taking of her dark blood would make her feel whole, she had been born without a part of her heart, or so it had always felt, maybe this would make her happy.
She was slightly surprised that all they needed was a p***k of the finger, but it was supposed to be a healing not a maiming. With a small movement, she ripped off the golve of her right hand and held it out, she was sure that the woman would not activate her healing powers, and that was the only reson she did it.
Glancing over at Iosha to see what he was making of the situation, she was astonished to see his teeth clenched, the tell tale sign was a muscle that flinched in his cheek randomly. She was once more puzzled, what was he feeling? Was he in pain, angry at them or simply acting weird.
Careful not to let her thoughts drift too far, she returned her gaze to Mother Aili, waiting for them to begin to operation. Carefully she separated her legs so as to gain a more braced stance. Her thoughts were channeled into a single stream of thought, this was what Celeste did to brace herself from any pain she expected, her own form of quick meditation.

Aili pulled out a small box of medical needles and selected one before replacing the small box into the pocket of her lab coat.
With a quick fluid movement of obvious long termed practice, the needle broke through the surface of Celete's ungloved index finger and was deposited in a cloudy mass that was held by Aili's right hand. The cloudy mass was in fact Aldora's magic weaving around to collect the blood-tainted material.
In a soft smooth reassuring and almost hypnotizing voice, Aili began to speak once more. "The point is to remove the tainting as your blood passes by, not to drain you of your blood. Your blood is what gives you life and what you were born with. It belongs to you. The invader of your blood is what I am removing." As she spoke, dark particles were streaming out into the cloudy mass. From the same right hand that was holding the cloudy pouch, a consistent stream of holy magic flowed in, obviously of a greater concentration than the that of the dark particles from Celeste's blood.
"I am not done, but one blood cycle has been pumped through. I will do two more cylces, just to be sure." The healing magic that once lashed out wildly around Celeste was now pulling in closer and wavying about like a ribbons in a gentle breeze. However, Aili's magic was preventing the magic from fully pulling in.
"I'm keeping your magic out of your body for now so the dark particles cannot hide within your magic. You might fill chilled as I send some of my magic into your blood. I will call out all my magic as soon as I am sure all that is left if your blood."
A short golden thread to the magical eye, entered the blood droplet and soon came back out and attached to Aili's left hand. The left hand clasped over her right hand and the pool around Celeste melted back into Aili's body.
As soon as Aili removed her left hand, Celeste's magic streamed closer until it fully entered Celeste's body.
Eeriely, Aldora steped out from Aili's body, so that Aldora stood in front of Aili with Aili's hands ontop of Aldora's hands which clutched the cloudy pouch.
"It's done. I'm sorry if you are unnerved by our separating, but I could not let the darkness pass through my body, nor can I hold on to it without Aldora in me."
In a blink of the eye, Aldora was back to her normal childish self, bag of diluted darkness clutched tightly in her right hand. "Bye byes! I'm off to the in between!" With that said, Aldora walked towards a few shadows which enveloped her when she stepped on them.
Aili let out a deep sigh when Aldora left. "I did my best. I've removed everything that was considered an intruder to your blood." Aili staggered slightly, but quickly stood straight up only to cover a small yawn.
"I haven't done that in such a long time. So sleepy..." Aili's eyes drooped a bit. "Oh excuse me. Sorry, this isn't the time to be sleepy."

Celestial felt the pain, it wasn't even close to being a nusance, she was so used to pain that it bothered her less. The chill however, was new, she had always been sensitive to cold, her teeth clenched tightly. She refused to move, it would be over soon.
Finally it was over, with a small frown, she dabbed at the blood pooled on her finger and then carefully put her glove back on, she probably didn't need it anymore, but she didn't want to carry it. Smiling at Aili, she thanked her intesely.
"It's alright, I've fainted a couple times infront of people, sleepiness isn't nearly as bad."
Celestial then paused to examine her body, it was not so much different, it just felt lighter, it was nice, but the hole was still there. Oh well, she had lived with it her whole life, it would be fine.

Ishoa stood there by the side, slowly moving one hand twoards one of the tables which held potted plants. He leaned agaisnt it with one hand still clenching his chest and looking straight over at Aili's methods. He studied them carfully being a doctor himself. ... so this is what Purity can take you to... this is what comes after years of experience..
The Plants slowly seemed to react twoards the light from the pure magic circle underneathe Aili's working area. They opened up twoards it. As if trying to collect the light from it. Ishoa took notice of this carfully. Ishoa smiled and watched Aili's delicate hands work about guiding each stream of blood going this way and that way. Draining each one and purifying each one.
Finally after the process was finished Ishoa slowly released his grip on his chest and regained a normal face. He watched as Aldora sepreated from Aili's body. It didn't suprise him. He has seen it before and has learned about it through time. As he saw Aldora sepreate and wave joyfully to him he couldnt help but wonder. Was that a false smile on her? Then seeing Aili swoon a bit Ishoa instincivly rushed over to her to offer support to her.
Ishoa then turned to celestial. "... im going to take Aili back to her dorm room... I trust that you will be safe here?" Ishoa asked her with a smile, but didn't wait for her response as he started to walk twoards the green house.
"better yet? Come with?"

"So tired" Aili mumbled.
"Ah! I've got a shift in the afternoon!" Aili shot straight back up before falling back into Ishoa's arms. She weakly grabbed a fistful of Ishoa's doctors coat. "Can you take my shift please?"
Unable to fight the fatigue, Aili fell asleep on her feet, her now limp arm dangling at her side, before she heard any response.

Celestial watched the girl dissapear, wondering if Shaiya could go to that place, would she be repelled by her sister's own blood? Oh well, hopefully she was untainted now. Snapping from her thoughts, she watched as Ishoa helped Aili. When he asked if she was going to be alright here, she was about to say yes, but then he asked her to come with, it was surprising, she didn't know these people that well, but he was asking her to come, and she didn't want to seem rude. "Alright" Celestial moved through the spot where the barrier had been and took Aili's arm, putting her shoulder as a support fo rAili, being short, she wasn't even sure if it would help, but it hight have been a nice gesture. "Where is her dorm?" (( http://www.gaiaonline.com/guilds/viewtopic.php?page=15&t=1588512#49278352 ))

Bukotsu had walked in the greenhouse which he found to be peaceful, but more people were here, he didn't mind.
"Wow, I didn't think anyone else would come...I guess i was wrong..." Bukotsu said to himself as he walked on through the greenhouse.
He only wanted some time to himself. Walking over to his usual spot, he took a seat at the table farthest away from the door. Reaching under the table he had his large bag case he left there earlier. Opening it slightly, it revealed all of his salves and medicines. Setting his things up he went off further into the greenhouse.
Bukotsu was looking for a blue spine cactus, and a simple mint. He would use it to make a very powerful salve for serious burns and simpler wounds. The mixture and the diluted solution of salt water would be need for such a task. Walking around until he reached the farthest from his table, he found the blue spine cactus. He suddenly stopped walking and bent over with his knees as he only needed the needles and some of the blue green skin of the cactus.

((geez I wanna revive this place!))
After picking up the things, he walked back to his table and set his things down and got down to work. Pulling out his mixing bowl, and several chemicals, some dilutes, hydrogen peroxide, and simple citric acid . Crushing the needles with a mortar in the bowl, he carefully mixed the peroxide and citric acid together and added them together. The compounds began to mix and combine. It began to look like a goo like substance.
With that, he slowly poured it into a test tube bottle that was in his case. Setting it down and cleaning out his things, he finished on one thing, and now he would work on the next thing.

Kruck strolled into the greenhouse, his demeanor thoughtful. Everything seemed to trigger a memory recently, even this greenhouse and these plants. What was so weird about it is, most of the things that triggered past memories had little or no relation to the memory. Kruck shook his head, slightly confused. Who knew if this nonsense would ever end.
He started to wander down an aisle and soon his mind was finally clear. The moist, thick air in here was so calm and soothing. The plants were so full of life and the ponds intersposed timely among the plants were filled with cool, refreshing water. Assuming it was fit for drinking he had had a taste.
He had to admit all these clearly exotic and beautiful plants were impressive. When one first heard of a greenhouse on a high school campus, one did not think of something this...this...wonderful. Around the corner he heard a slight sound. With quick reflexes he ducked behind a overhanging shrub (one of those curling plants) and crept along, weaving in and out of the dense inner section of plants seperating two aisles.
Momentarily he came to the last gathering of plants. Beyond that, he could see by peeking out while carefully remaining hidden, was an odd sight. A young man, who he assumed was a student, was at a table in a corner surrounded by plants and trees. On the table was an assortment of things like a test tube and a mixing bowl. From what he could see, the young man was cleaning these things out. Kruck was quite curious at what this fellow was upto. He decided to wait, stay where he was, and watch to see what he could learn.

"I'M SORRY KURRY!!" Rene whipped her head from side to side. She couldn't help herself, she was scarred and her only link to the past besides Aili had turned her away. No, he wouldn't even look at her. He did not even get to the point of turning her away.
Rene's soaked eyes began to lift up, the gold eyeshadow gleemed off of the shinning tears still hanging from her dark lashes. A narrow sun-soaked green leaf met her eye.
"AUH!"
Rene stumbled back. Her breath, without her control, tonned down from its rugged pace. She turned her eyes. No longer was she in her brother's room in the church. At the moment the distressed appearing teen was within the confindes of the school's greenhouse. Tropical bushes, frens, trees, and flowers engulfed her pressence from everyside. She knew instantly that she had once again gone somewhere with out her knowing it, or without memory of it. She whimpered. Another droplet of water slid into one of the trails on her flushed cheek.
"Why?"
Rene leaned forward and clentched a hot pink flower. Her fingers curled and dug into the delecate smooth petals.

Split decisions were something that, when one had them a lot, that one got faster at making tough, fast decisions, so fast it was almost reflex. Kruck had made many a split decision. When he heard a girl's cry he didn't even wait to see if this man saw him or also heard the girl. Quickly making his way to where the sound was made, branches and leaves whipped against his face and arms and legs but did not slow him down. He once tripped over a small log but did not fall; he stumbled and immediatly kept going.
Finally he burst into a clearing, out of breath and red streaks lining his exposed skin. Small trails of blood flowed from several of these. His blue eyes narrowed slightly at the sight of the distraught girl. She had a flower in her grasp and seemed to be letting out whatever emotion plagued her on the flower, a victim.
Kruck's head swiveled side to side, looking for any sign of that strange man, or anyone else for that matter. Seeing no one, he slowly approached her, and gently lay his hand on her shoulder."...Are you alright?" was a qustion asked bluntly, honest concern showing.

((KRUUUUUUCK! ZEAJKKKKKK 4laugh YAAAAY! If you dont remember me I'll thing of something painful to do to you! rofl Oh, and Kurai told me to say that you need to go to the areana. You have a battle right now.))
Rene's hand clentched the flower, it's deffensless petal's collapsed under her grip. She did not even hear the person rush up to her rescue. It was a surprise when his hand rested on her.
"I used to be able to feel its pain. I would have the same clentching I'm putting on this flower on my hand, or in my mind. I would sometimes be able to feel its happiness, its relieve when I let go."
Rene rarely talked to strangers. She wouldn't talk to classmates or aquantances of this subject or anything deeper than her ditzy jokes and little conversations that they brought up. She could barely talk to friends about anything that about herself. Maybe she had reached her limit. It did not matter any more. No one cared, and it would be a long time before she found someone who would. Her loneliness was deterating her soul.
The tearful student pierced her nails through the leaves into her palm. Her fingers relaxed and the hand fell down, the petals soaked with their own clear milky blood tumbled from her release.
"And that's not what scares me."

(yeah i remember you...as steve and doug butabi would say, "sup". lol umm i did post at the battle but i was a little late so im not sure whats gonna happen sweatdrop )
"Pain." A bloody hand reaching out of a grave. Legs flailing around, trying to find a surface to rest on. A head, gasping its last breaths. A body, the head neatly cut off. "Pain."
A past he didn't want to remember. A past that was far from forgettable. So he would focus on this girl, hoping that talking with her would allow him to forget again, for longer, maybe to never remember again. The past does deserve respect for bringing one to one's present state. He did respect it, though it had taken a while. That was not the problem. Focus...
Her words did require focus, that was the sweet thing about it. What she said was almost poetic in its nature. He admittedly was confused after she added the last sentence; he couldn't connect the two while she obviously could. A sudden longing to know what the connection was, what she knew. That's not important right now.
"What does scare you the most? And so, a simple question.
