Nyx twitched but kept her mouth shut just wanting to put the demon down so he can be tended to before, if possible, it was too late. Joker followed and sighed. "This is fine Dusk. I shall request that you be the only one allowed to come down here and leave me and Nyx to tend to Monty. I also would like to request that if you could put something like a sound proof wall around this area or rather ignore the loud roars and screams from here, I will be happy. I'll come up and down for supplies if I need them okay?" He asked, motioning for Nyx to enter the cell and set Monty's body on the bed gently and on his stomach rather than his back for specific reasons of course.

Dusk frowned some but then she nodded. “I’ll… I’ll do that. If there’s anything else that you need then tell me. I’ll set up the barrier but I need to go find Rave.” She had a feeling that the composed man was beginning to break and that was someone that they couldn’t risk breaking anytime soon. Sighing softly, she began to walk around the room, shadows coming up quickly as she gestured, the motion causing them to nearly solidify around the area. Nodding when she was complete with the task, the woman glanced over at him, smiling slightly. “Just call for me if you need something but… I don’t think that I’ll be welcomed with Monty for a long time, Joker.” Giving a slight bow/nod to both Nyx and the medic, she was gone in a swirl of shadows, off to find Rave.
Who was a lot harder to find than she had expected.

Joker blinked but didn't say anything else for he had Nyx help him clean up Monty and to focus on the physical wounds before they could get to the mental and emotional ones that might hurt him more. As for the comment that Dusk made, it was best to let that in itself unfold because even though Monty has made himself out to be one of the most unliked person here, there was still more to him than met the eye that could surprise anyone. He just needed to be given the chance yet alot never did so the demon acted like a animal most of the time.
Hibachi was downloading a game as a thought came to him. "Where's Kalore?" Was someone out to find him? If not then anything could happen to him if he didnt come back to be accounted for. "I didn't give him his damn communicator and tracker. Damnit!" He snapped and started to click away in getting live feed for all of the elven lands. It was just then that one of the live feed videos he spotted two people making there way away from the lands to a different border.
Blinking some curiously, his attention went there until he clicked for it to zoom in. Gasping softly he, whooped loudly in his mouthpiece and started to do a tacky victory dance, setting the video feed to keep following the two that were moving away farthr and farther away from the border into another city. "I so rock. I'm the greatest thing in the world. Eat your heart out Bill Gates." He grinned widely.

Rave’s communicator and tracker weren’t on him anymore so no one would be able to tell where he was. He had found traces of the others, knew that gambler was on the move to… somewhere… but the man didn’t follow her. He had no reason to. Now that the immediate threat was gone, he was left there, standing on the ledge where his love had been buried, Isabelle, and… just stared. He wasn’t going to jump, wasn’t going to do anything stupid, but he had to just look at the grave and think for a moment. Surely all of this was some hoax… something that he could just wake up from. Problems like what had happened with Sin… those were things that he could handle. This? This thing with Gambler? That wasn’t something that he would ever be able to handle, that much he knew.
“Cecilia…” He didn’t move as he heard the shadows behind him, listening as Dusk’s footsteps moved closer to him. “Rave… What are you doing here?” She looked over him, noticing that the watch and the other things that Hibachi had given all of them were gone. Where had he put it? Probably on one of Harley’s creations. If the Lich knew about it, she didn’t know. He probably wouldn’t question the man for doing much of anything. He didn’t speak back, however, so she spoke her words again.
Nothing. Rave just stared.
“What are you talking about, tech guy? You’re freaking loud…” touching his ear, Harley grumbled and there was a sound of agreement by Eldin and Talon both, though only one wore the communicator. “Sir, Hibachi, what is it that you found?” The young man looked up from his work on Kyoshi, mostly just checking on the other instead of doing other work. He was curious on what had made the man so excited. Did he find Gambler and the other man, Sin? If he did… would that be a good thing if he found them together?

Hibachi rolled his eyes. "Stop crying. I'm not telling you anything after being so mean to me." He was so happy that he was being weird and ended up pressing his face to the computer. "Alright, alright, alright....I'll tell you all....If..." Oh no, if it was an if then Hibachi was going to make them say something ridiculous so that he could inflate his ego but really he was going to tell them anyways. "I promise to tell you the greatest thing since Jesus if you all do something for me."

All parties groaned softly but Dusk spoke to him, “Just tell us, Hibachi. I don’t mean to be rude, but I think that all of our nerves are a bit shot at the moment.” There were soft sounds of agreement once more, but none of them were noted. She only had eyes for Rave, making sure that the man didn’t bolt or do anything un-Rave-like. Dusk didn’t think that he would do something stupid or anything like that, but sometimes… sometimes one had to truly wonder about people. Her old mentor was one of those people that she worried about, most of the time without truly meaning to.

"Nope. Nope, not until I get my stuff back and if you all tell me that I'm the greatest, technical genius this world as ever seen and that you will worship the ground I walk on because of it." Hibachi grinned more, if it was possible. Yet it was a short lived when the shadow of a tall, beautiful amazon woman fell over him and ended up throwing a large fist at his face, making him fall back, ripping the his headpiece off.
However, even though Joker was hearing him and didn't like being interuppted, Nyx was only there to ask Eldin for more supplies and items. The amazon took it upon herself to just end the madness and make the wizard tell them. Grabbing him by the collar of his shirt, he was coughing and smiling. "Hey babe." The amazon twitched but calmed down quickly. Hibachi was thrown at the ground where his head piece was. "Put it on Hibachi." Her voice was calm yet there was a thick line of steel in it. The man did as she said.
Standing behind him she grabbed his hair and pulled a bit, leaning close enough to brush her lips over his. "Your going to tell them what you found. If you don't, your going to have your spine ripped out of you and turned into a necklace. Believe me, I know a few people who would love a new bone necklace for their collection." Hibachi paled slightly, having to be quite attached to his bones. Clearing his throat, he nodded slightly. "Alright. I was looking around the elven lands in search of Kalore since he doesn't have my equipment but instead of finding him, I think I found Sin and Gambler. As of right now I'm tracking them through the live feed. If I still keep it on them and finding out there they end up, we can heal up and build up a way of learning the routine there to finially finish this up." Hibachi was shaking slightly. "There....I told them happy?"
Nyx nodded slightly in approval. "Good Hibachi. Now, if your going to have an outburst keep it quiet. There are some who need the silence to contentrate. Otherwise, I'll give you a reason to be deaf. Nice ears." She said, looking at one as he flinched away. "You win." Nyx turned around and went to where Eldin was caring for the knocked out Kyoshi. "Do you have any cloths, a old big shirt, some ointments, a needle and thread and....ear plugs for Joker?" She asked the young elf in a polite manner that was opposite of her scary manner. Nyx was such a charming woman.

Listening to the bits of what they could hear, some of Dusk’s group paled; others just laughed. Harley and Talon were the ones that were laughing. Harley had to admit that the woman was interesting, but just not in his own taste, but Talon… Nyx was interesting to him. Neither spoke however. Dusk thought about the words for a while before she sighed some. “I think… that we need to track them down, see if there’s any way that we can place a shadow on one of them or some form of trail. Just in case you lose sight of them with your satellite or whatever it is that you’re using for the live feeds, Hibachi, but I don’t know anything about what Sin or even Gambler can even do. Ideas?”
Eldin was pale, nodding slowly. “Um… I have all of that but the earplugs. I’m sure that… that there’s something like that around here.” He got up, almost as scared of this woman as he was Dusk when she was angry. He flitted around the area, soon coming up with all of the items save for the large shirt. “I have some spare cloth that he could make into a covering, but I think that all of the large clothes in this room belong to Kyoshi… I don’t want to go through his or the Queen’s things…”

Hibachi sighed. "If you can send a shadow to track them that would be fine but don't let it touch either of them. I'm pretty sure that Gambler will propably think that you guys will do it so if she's sacrificing herself to keep you guys from getting those spiders or something worse, she might even suggest to the bad guy to leave far away. Sin is no doubt figuring it out since Rave took the boss out with the shadow thing. Let me ask, do you track down with the shadows by having it attach to the person's shadow or just like a tracking device?" If there was a difference then perhaps they could use the former instead of the latter since a person wouldn't be aware of that...right?
The amazon raised a brow and nodded slowly. "I have no such reservations." Looking around she spotted a big white shirt laying around, somehow since Kyoshi is generally a tidy person and picked it up. Walking over to Eldin she patted his head lightly and took the items. "I thank you and when the old man wakes up, let him know that I owe him a shirt, alright?" She said, watching him like a predator.

Eldin’s eyes were wide as he continued to watch the woman in front of him. She scared him… by a lot. Slowly nodding, he bit his lip again, “U-Um… okay.” Why was she staring at him as if he was doing something wrong, like she was about to kill him or something? It wasn’t nice and it was making him highly uncomfortable. Eldin couldn’t do anything about it, however, before he was slowly nodding and he soon moved to be able to get back to Kyoshi, watching Nyx as a mouse watches a friendly cat. They’re nice for now.. but how long would that last? “Anything else, Miss Nyx?”
“It’s not like a tracking device, but something that attaches to the shadow. It’s nothing physical or even sensed by most people.” It would just wear her down depending on how far out they went. Dusk didn’t like the idea but she knew that Rave wasn’t going to do that with the others that were around him. He seemed… upset and there wasn’t a damn thing that she could do about it. “I’ll do that if you wish me to, but I really just want something for if we decide to get her or something. That way we won’t lose a chance or something.”

Nyx narrowed her eyes on the elf but then smiled slightly, softening her hard expression just a bit. "Yes, I suggest you put something loud on like music or find cotton balls to cover your ears. Your going to hear a demon scream." It sounded pretty forbodding yet the amazon didn't say anything else and walked away to let Eldin do his job and help Kyoshi so that she could help Joker, help Monty.
"That's a tracking device only not in technical terms, Dusk. If you can attach something to another that is like a GPS system then it's a tracking device." Sighing some he started to click away in hacking into the govenments satellites that were left behind. "Anyways, the important thing is for as long as I'm capable I'll follow them. If they get out of sight because of whatever limits come up, I'll give you the last coordinates of that location and from there you can send out the shadows. Right now, we need you and Ravey to get here and get better." He tilted his head to the side.
"If you ever find him, let him know that if he's going to let this sh*t get to his head then he's better off sitting on the sidelines. Gambler doing this suicidal thing is enough for one group to handle. Losing another one with his mind all over the place is not needed." Especially when Joker's mental state was calmer than it should be but it was still a hair-breaths away from snapping to insanity. Monty was down and his state was uncertain and Kyoshi was slowly getting better thanks to Eldin's expertise.
Hibachi clicked away some more, his hand developing pain from all the ferocity he was typing, "Look I don't mean any offense or anything. I think we need to be like the predator who watches his prey and learns about it until it's the right time to attack on his territory with the full strength of our peoples."

Dusk shrugged, “In a sense it is, but it’s not like it gives live feeds or anything. It just sits there until the user calls on it, then it actually shows the user where they are.” But she didn’t defend the idea or shoot it down. Whatever it was that they did, the other probably had the best idea on what to do. She frowned some as he spoke about ‘Ravey’, shaking her head, “Don’t call him that, Hibachi… but I’ve found Rave. We’re securing the borders.” She watched as the other seemed to stiffen, narrowing his eyes. Did the man truly think that Rave wouldn’t do his job? He loved Gambler, but if she was going to do this then she was his boss first, lover second; especially when they were doing something as risky as this.
Paling, Eldin went back to work before he decided that maybe he didn’t want to be there anymore. Well, he didn’t think that there was anything that he would have enjoyed hearing if it was loud… “What did she mean by finding something to block our ears?” Just what was it that the woman was planning on doing? The only demons that he knew were Monty and Edward, and he knew that Edward wasn’t here so… he guessed that they had grabbed Monty. How bad of shape was he in? Would they need help? Even if they did, Eldin didn’t think that he would do well in helping them…

Hibachi shook his head. "Dusk, can you all just cut this crap out about being offended by the littlest things? We have bigger problems to deal with. You have to keep your nation safe and I need to make sure we corner the bad guy and get the boss back. We all need to rest and come up with a good plan but the only thing I suggest is that no one save Gambler. As far as I'm concerned, if she doesn't want it then leave her alone. As long as Sin is gone with his spiders we should settle for that."
Joker sighed softly and nodded when Nyx came to help him. "He's right. When I'm done here I'll check up on everyone to make sure they are mentally, emotionally and phyiscially capable and then I have to see what's being done to help those in Area 6. Afterwards we devise a plan whether or not someone calls Rave Ravey and or whatever the hell is being said. Set aside all the ego and let's get to work." The insane man's voice was sharply a complete three sixty of his cheerful self.
Turning to Nyx he motioned for her to hold down Monty's legs since he tied down the arms. "Alright. It's time to operate." Taking out his handy scalpe, but bit the handle to keep it there and instead had a needle and thread then pressed the tip point to the tender and highly sensitive flesh making the demon snap his eyes open and create such a roar that it was a pierce, animal like sound mixed with something else that would make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up on end and well...Anyone near by will hear it.

“We are getting to work, Hibachi, Joker.” Dusk’s own voice was sharp. “But if nerves are high enough, then why push it? Now, Rave and I are checking on our borders, making sure that my lands are okay enough to do what needs to be done. None of us even want to go after gambler. She’s a big girl now and she can do as she wishes.” Honestly… Dusk would want to go after her but it wasn’t her place and I f this was what the woman wanted then so be it. As long as Ellwood and the other elvish areas weren’t in risk because of the behavior then so be it. She said nothing else as she was speaking softly with Rave, asking about the things that were around.
He didn’t speak for a while, hearing what she was hearing before he sighed, shaking his head. “I’ve seen Kalore and he seems to be doing well enough. Harley…” The man took another step forward, raising higher slightly so that he would be able to find where the man was, nodding when he did. “The last of our people are safe, then. For now, at least.” It wasn’t a comforting thought, but it was how it needed to be. He gestured and the two were walking, shadows consuming them as they quickly checked over their lands, checking on Kalore, Harley, and Talon. It seemed like Edward and the others were in the best shape that they could be and Talon’s group was beginning to work on helping those in Area 6.
“We got it here, Boss. Work on messing with the borders.” Ziggy was with Talon, his arms crossed and a nearly bored look on his face. “The spiders can be killed with ice, so if they come back that way then that’s what we’ll do. Talon told us of the things that you guys dealt with and I’ll look up on some of Hell’s creatures from Edward and see if there’s anything that we need to prepare for.” Talon spoke, mostly to Hibachi, “Is there anything else that we need to be on the lookout for here? We’re doing some build up at the moment and patching up those that can be patched, but you got any ideas on if we’re going to be attacked or not? Or did Gambler’s move make us safe for now?” Neither of them cared enough about the woman for them to care too much on her.
Hearing the roar, both Eldin and Kit jumped sky high, clutching their chests with wide eyes. “What the f*ck was that?!”

"If you do push it then your going to end up with the thousand mile stare and we need to prevent that from happening. If anyone of you, most especially Rave since he's the one suffering in silence, no doubt we need to push some of you. If you don't then you need to stay back with the disabled." Joker reasoned, speaking over the loud Monty who was moving around viciously, moving the single bed against the walls in his thrashings and almost dislodging Nyx in the process.
Hibachi rolled his eyes, but kept doing his job without stopping for a second. "Look, once your done just get back here period. Gambler just gave in to the demands to keep all of us safe for a long a** time. Most likely until he's capable of extracting her soul and abilities all in one shot. We need to, at the very least stop that from happening. If that happens....Well....There are worse things than spiders to worry about alright? Do you all copy?"
