Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I didn't like it then either." Markus muttered, putting his finger to his forehead. He withdrew his Tanto, and threw it into the air, catching it by the handle again. Adrian grinned, and made a small cross symbol. He then withdrew two of his Bayonets, they left a blue trail as he withdrew them which lingered in the air for a few seconds, these were blessed continueously for the past fives hours and were his most powerful weapons. "Bring it on mine enemy" Jacob said, extending his fingers and turning them into pure titanium alloy, the same method he had used back at the docks.

All of the different weapons had the same deadly sheen, the faint purple outline which meant that they were interconnected and powerful. Adrian dodged the attack by parrying it, blocking it with the flat of one of his bayonets, he sliced one upwards towards Leo's neck.

Markus caught the blade with his mind, keeping it in place. He did a vertical stabbing motion, aiming for the top of Siyo's head.

Jacob jumped backwards, then forwards again almost instantly. He did a clapping motion, the pointed metal fingers swinging towards Arik's side in both directions.

"Oh you know deep down you enjoyed it" Siyo said putting his hand out

"Jacob the Jester, catchy" Arik said putting his hand out

Leo smiled as he put his hand out. As all three hands where out a sheild formed to block all of the attack. Once they had finished they disbanded the sheild. Leo stood their and nodded to Siyo and Arik. "Now we strike"

"With the power of loyalty" Siyo said turning into mist that wrapped round Leo's right arm

"With the power of trust" Arik said also turning into mist wrapping around Leo's left arm

"With the power of Family" the rest of the spirits said incasing Leo

Siyo's mist turned into a black lance that Leo held while Arik's turned into a sheild. The rest of the family turned into a suit of armor, As Leo stood their looking like a black knight spikes grew from his back as white mist came from his mouth peice.

"Hmpf" Leo put his sheild up and Adrian as Adrian bounced off the sheild and back to his orginal postion Leo stood up and looked at Adrian as he pointed the Lance at him as he lent forward and charged his lance passing past Adrians right side as the sheild was near to his face. Suddenly Arik's arm extended from the sheild gun in hand as he pointed it to Adrian's head and fired.

Leo smiled as he put his sheild infront of the X shaped slash as it disbanded, but then as many bayonets impaled through Leo's armor and the screams of ghosts could be heard as they fled from Leo. "s**t" Leo whispered as he disbanded the armor and lance and sheild and put all the energy in his hand. He started to charge the enegry, "Make your move". He said to Adrian.

Adrian spun the blades, and laughed loudly, throwing them down with such force they were embedded into the stone floor. "I amnae one for yer special Magic, and me family isnae exactleh supportive" "Well if you wore some decent clothes once in a while we'd take you more seriously" They hissed, using the tone of a petulant nanny in their strange conglomeration of voices. He shushed them, and said "But I do know this, if ye're gunnae convert yer family into a ball o' Spirits then dunnae do it in front o' a Scotsman carrying explosives." Before he said a word more he threw down one of his specially made Vials, full of his Alcohols... and gasoline.

The bullet hit Adrian full in the chest, sending him shooting backwards into a wall. Markus' voice overtook Adrian's, as they merged together, they said "Feel the Family's hatred" He snatched the Bayonet in the ground, it overflowed with raw purple-black energy, lighting up the entire Mausoleum with a foreboding yet faint light. "Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death" They whispered in Unison, drawing it back for the throw, "I shall feel no fear. The Rosedales will never fear Death, Death is a warm and welcome friend." He threw the Bayonet, it split apart into hundreds of tiny purple needles, "May you no longer feel your limbs!" Raw red lightning crackled from them, and they split into more, they exploded into tiny mushroom clouds on impact. With that, Adrian leapt out of the Tomb, and became the night itself, running on wings of Darkness all the way to Las Noches.

-{Exit to Las Noches}-

The area around Ceon's grave was silent and still as usualy. Moss started to creep up the headstone and a single flower lay on his grave. The ground started to rumble and the surrounding creatures fled from the site. A dirty and bloody hand burst from the dirt, and soon after Ceon's grave burst with dirt flying everywhere. Climbing ontop of the scattered dirt and wood, stood Ceon. But he had changed, he was pale, and his hair was charred black. All his teeth were jagged as were his nails.

Ceon sniffed the night air for the first time in a long time and he looked over in the direction of the park, foggy memories of locations and family returning to him. He sped off into that direction, leaving the air behind him struggling to catch up.
(exit: central park)

Jaden swished his tail as he wandered int the graveyard. This was a good place to cool his temper at Ceons return. Overall he was still furious but at least things were slowing down for him and the urge to just break things to pieces was fading.
