Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Let me through," hissed Blade as he heard Tessa shout out orders to the rest of the boys. He was going to have one hell of a fight on his hands for sure. But unfortunately, he was no Date Masamune or Sanada Yukimura so it was only a matter of time before he would be overwhelmed.

"RIYO! MITSU! GET OUT OF THERE!" he tried to shout. He couldn't see what was going on over there but maybe they could get away still.

Trying to make his way towards the other room, he threw out a punch and an elbow at some of the closest boys. If he could get one of them to get a nose bleed..maybe just maybe he could at least draw the attention of one or both vampires. It was a long shot, but he needed to make use of his resources here.

Taking a few of the blows, he grunted and staggered back while bringing up a foot to try and catch a boy in the groin. Not the cleanest way to fight but... again.. resources.

As the one boy managed to block his elbow and avoid the kick, Blade narrowed his eyes. It seemed that he had a little more than the average brawler here, which didn't mean all too well for himself.

Seeing the boy drop down, the thief jumped just in time to avoid getting tripped. On the way down he tried to plant his foot into the other boy's face.

Now the wind magic was something Blade didn't expect and it successfully blew him back a few feet. Stumbling, he managed to catch his balance and once he did he looked at the other bow with a grimace. He couldn't see it, but he could feel bits of wind here and there, signifying magic lingered here. Perhaps that could be used to his advantage though.

Taking in a breath, he tried to focus his energy. He found it more difficult to tap into his magic in his current state, but he at least was able to concentrate more effectively without the rest of the Hive down his back.

Drawing in his hands, he quickly thrust them outwards, launching a sizable fireball... though it seemed to be aimed for the boys standing in the way of the door to the other room rather than his actual opponent. The thief was already trying to prepare another attack just for that.

Before Blade could send off his next attack, the blast of air had hit him squarely in the chest, knocking him back into the wall. He had at least lit the other boys on fire... which if he could get past this one kid, would at least make things easier to go through them. But first.. he needed to get past this wind mage. And even then, he needed to think of what he could do if he could get that far.

"Dammit...", he groaned as he pushed himself away from the wall before finding himself being drenched once more thanks to the water pipe being smashed open. Well great. It was tough before to gather his magic but now it'd be even worse. Instead of attempting to fireball him, he just rushed forth at the other boy, feinting an attack from the left before shifting to try and catch him on the right with a kick. In the meantime, he was trying to gather up some magic to get in one attack a little later.

"Don't you have anything better to do than to be a pawn?"

The hive boy didn't even bother to block, his focus was on making an attack. As Blade approached the boy took one step closer before aiming a straight kick at Blade's gut just as the thief's kick came around. Hoping to use the boy's momentum against him he forced a great amount of airflow down his leg to amplify the kick and hopefully force Blade back. If he was unable to push Blade back the kick would no doubt connect.

Despite the noise Mitsu couldn't seem to pry her eyes away from Desmond, not until she heard Blade yell for them to run. Eyes darting to the side shortly as the noise began to pick up in the other room, they settled back on Desmond in the midst of him trying to emphasize his true answer. Her brain was grasping at that answer trying to desperately cling to it, but his following words, the ones spoken as clear as day were like a forceful blow. Suddenly she felt her sanctuary that had felt so solid and secure was now made of fragile brittle glass and one good blow would shatter it around her.

Mouth pulled into a tight line Mitsu did her best to will back the tears that had started to well up in her eyes, but they cascaded down her cheeks of their own accord. Her mind was already dazed and confused. Images of their times together, remembering the words he had spoken, but then there were other thoughts clouding her mind. Images of things she was sure she had never seen before. If felt like her mind was being invaded by someone else, someone with malicious intent. "Please....stop Desmond." She begged afraid that her mind was about to break.

While his words were what she wanted to hear, Tessa couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Could he not put a little feeling behind those words? How boring. Pulling out her camera as well she snapped a picture. At least the girl's face was exactly what she had wanted. "Words are such a bore, I think its time to move on." Camera held ready for another photo opportunity, Tessa beamed a smile. Despite the noise in the other room she wasn't about to let it interrupt her fun. "Strip her."

At that command, Mitsu's eyes grew even wider, vision darting from Tessa back to Desmond. Balling her hands up into fists she shook her head a far greater look of fear on her face than before. She couldn't let them see....if they found out....Suto would find out. If he found out there would be a far greater punishment than any of the hive could dish out. "N...no, please don't Desmond." She began to tense up, her body shaking uncontrollably. "P...please."

Riyo had pulled her face away before Klyde's tongue could gather up the red liquid he so desperately sought after. He couldn't even bring himself to speak anymore, his mind in turmoil over what he was doing. He wanted to stop, to pull away, to let her free, but he did just the opposite. His head dipped down until it was level with her throat, his tongue darting out across the vein pumping blood through her body.

Riyo's words were a blur on his mind, he didn't realize she was talking until he heard 'I'll feed you.' Not holding back any longer, he moved forward, mouth opening to expose those elongated sharp canines. With a quick snap of his jaw he bit down, the first taste of blood sending his mind into a feeding frenzy. Pressing a little closer to keep her from moving he started to drink more readily, his mind all but gone at the moment.

Already in motion and with the air pushing him, Blade wasn't able to move out of the way of the kick. His eyes widened as the other guy's foot slammed straight into his gut, knocking the wind out of him. He tumbled to the ground, clutching his stomach and gasping for breath. Using magic now was more or less hopeless.

"D-dammit..." he wheezed while struggling to get back to his feet.

"Let.. go of me.." Blade managed to get out as he felt himself being grabbed. The thief tried to struggle against it, but it was hard when he was still having trouble breathing. So over all, it shouldn't have been too difficult for the hive boys to keep him down right now.

He could still hear bits and pieces from the other room, and it definitely did not seem like the girls were able to escape. What added a little sick feeling within was he heard what sounded like a snapshot. There were only a few things in mind on why they would be wanting to take pictures.

Desmond's eyes seemed shocked when she practically begged him to beat her. His heart may have been dead... But she was really pulling at his heartstrings. It looked like Klyde had stopped and he couldn't be sure why, but he had his own problems to focus on.

When Tessa once again suggested, a little more firmly, that he stand aside, he noticed the holy item around her neck. That b***h. Scowling as the men approached, he kept a firm hold on Mitsu. "I said I could do it, goddammit." He hissed through his teeth, not particularly caring if Tessa tried to burn him.

"What's wrong?" Riyo asked, licking her lips as she saw the blood trailing down his face. "Did I cut you off too soon? Poor baby." A fake pout overtook her face, though it didn't stay as the grin reappeared moments later.

Nami's eyes narrowed as Klyde pulled back. If he was that desperate, there was no way he was satisfied after less than a minute. But that didn't matter. "Hurry up then Klyde. Take her dress off. We're waiting for a show here."

"Yeah Klyde. Hurry up. Take it off." Riyo echoed Nami, grin never faltering.

Nami's eyes immediately darted to Riyo. "Are you mocking me? In YOUR situation?"

"Ahh, you really don't understand the situation at all, do you? It's alright. You will in a second." Riyo's hands reached up to Klyde's cheeks, using one of her index fingers to gather the escaping blood and lick it off. "C'mon then. Live up to your reputation, mad hatter."
