9 rode a small black pony with tan hide and a cream colored main and tail into town. She dressed in black riding paints and shirt. Two belts over lapped her hips with 4 sets of daggers on each belt. The White Rose sword gently bounced on her right as she rode.
She came to a stop in the center of town and sighed. The few people that where left wouldn’t be trusting at this point in time. As she hopped off her pony 9 pulled the rains over the horses head to lead him around.
“Hello…”

An angry and pained look filled her face. 9 dropped the rains of the horse as she realized there wasn’t anyone left alive. She promised the town protection for helping her so many times and in there greatest need she let them down.
“I’ll kill whoever did this. I promise my friends this will be righting and I will bring you all back some how.”

Xol dashed through the forest following after the woman and her blade. To avoid detection he leapt up into the tree tops and moved at such a rate he was nothing more than a black blur. It was exhilerating to say the least.
After a couple minutes the woman entered a ruined town to which another pange ripped through Xol's mind. He had destroyed this town and slaughtered it's inhabitants. A slight grin formed on his lips and he clung to the highest portion of the tree overlooking the ruined town.
His attention snapped back to the woman, guiding her horse through the town on foot. With another leap, he was sailing out of the tree top and into the air. He landed a good 15 feet in front of the woman and turned slowly, narrowing his crimson eyes at her. His eyes skiped back and forth between her and the sword. "You are...lady 9-lives. Pleasure to meet you again, but unfortunately this won't be a pleasant get together. I'm here for the......the sword. The...White Rose." He struggled, scruntching up his nose in thought.

"Xol what type of Game is this?"
She snapped at him. Her voice was hurtful and sad as she looked up at him
"You can't have the sword. And if you try and take it I'll kill you."
9 hissed at him as if he was the devil himself. Her eyes narrowed on him. She moved her right hand so it was resting onthe hilt. She didn't know what to think at this point. She only wanted the wrong to be righted once again.

Xol placed two fingers to his temple as his eyes rolled back into his head. Shattered memories began to flow through his mind again. One that burst through was a feeling for the woman in front of him...one half love the other half pure insane hatred. He inhaled sharply and removed the fingers from his temple, crimson eyes returing to gaze upon the woman. "This is no game..." He started, sensing the hurt in her voice. "...I have come for that blade. Nothing more. There is no point in wasting your lives here over such trivial matters." He finished, saying lives oddly like it had a hidden meaning.
"Hand over the White Rose...and be quick with it. I sense someone else coming." He growled, unsheathing Infinity which pulsed with dark energy.

Focht stops just far enough away to not be a threat, only a nagging worry. He watches the exchange between them, ready to help. His sword is nowhere to be found on him. He mutters under his breath knowing this isn't his place to step in the middle.
"9, don't listen to him......"

9 unsheathed the sword as she tightened her grip on the hilt. She was dumfounded but his words. Keeping her cool 9 took a few steps back and grabbed the rains to her pony.
“I would never hand over the sword. No to Tj, Aeris, and not to a cold blooded killer like yourself!”
She winced at her own words. Her voice was bitter and harsh as she spoke. She didn’t want to think about the meaning of his words right then or the fact that he and Clyde killed everyone here.
“I’ll kill you before I haven over the sword.”

Xol sneers at her words and sighs slightly. "Very well then...you have left me no other choice." He growled, walking towards her.
Infinity hung loosely at his side, but he could swing it up with deadly force at any time. He stalked her, letting the power in Infinity grow. As it pulsed, little rocks on the ground started to move around and lift into the air along with small amounts of dirt.

9 shifted her weight uneasily as she sent the horse running. She knew she couldn’t take him in a fight but she couldn’t give up the sword with out there brig problems.
“Xol… do you really want to do this? Think about it. I can bring back everyone. I can save this town and you…”
She voice pleaded to him as she dared not to strike first. She moved as he moved to keep space between them, hoping it would giver her a better fighting chance.

Her words sting him somewhere in the back of his mind, but he keeps moving forward. "Why would I want you to revive the town after I worked so hard to destroy it?" He grinned, baring his fangs.
"And no 9...even you cannot save me. Enough talk! Hand over the White Rose!" He roared, slashing Infinity through the air and unleasing a massive wave of dark energy. The dark energy wasn't like before though, streaks of blood red lighting coursed around it. He had finally realized how to unleash the true power of the Black Rose.

9 gasped in fear as she held the White rose up infront of her. To her dismay the sword put up a shield around her to protect her from the dark energy wave. Never was the sword protected her in the past…. She new then something was wrong.
“Do you really want to take my life for this blade Xol? What about the life of another? Stop and think about that your doing!”

Xol scowls at 9 and raises his left arm parrallel with her. The air around her suddenly starts to grow heavy. He clenches his hand closed and the air starts to condense around her in a sort of orb, slowly beginning to crush the air from her lungs.
As the air crushes 9, Xol turns to Kogashi as he rushes into the town and stabs Infinity into the ground. The ground underneath him falls into a black void as a football field sized hole appears under him.

9 dropped to the ground as she started to gasp for air. The Rose sword was tight in her grip. She felt the air around crushing her and the air from her lungs. As she fought to breath she whispered one word. “Vanish” and the white rose was gone.
She let out a grunt in pain. without the swords to keep the shield up 9 now felt the full force of Xols power. She head swirled as she fell to the ground. She body starting to tremble from the crushing air.
