As Luen wrapped itself around his wrist, Atticus would look at the doll, "Nice seeing you again, Luen." Atticus commented before looking back at Charlotte, "There is no need. In my training, I gained the ability to create portals and I am able to freely go to and from the Netherworld. I guess that this is a sign that I am more demonic in nature now. Meaning my body is getting more unstable." he stated, just as there was a knock at the door and Shira along with Krieg, would enter. Before any introductions could be made, Atticus approached Krieg, "Show her some respect." he demanded, "I don't care where you are from, how you were raised, or what kind of twisted things happened to you. When you are in the presence of my mother you will show her respect and introduce yourself properly." Atticus was a little upset because he was able to sense Krieg's and Shira's little fight and was irritated because of it.
Shira glanced towards Krieg "Uh..." then Atticus began speaking to him about being polite. She sighed before looking at Charlotte who waved at her. She looked at Atticus then "I assume you told her about everything going on?" she asked curiously "What's the plan?"

Krieg looks at Atticus smirking "You don't know twisted til you see a pool of blood surrounded by the ones you kill and calm down momma's boy!" He looks at Charlotte "The name is Krieg. Just watch out when you are around me." He sits down looking at the group "So momma's boy you tell her what Texas' real name? TX117A? You wouldnt known it was him if it wasnt for me."
Charlotte leaned against her desk slightly and tipped the glasses that were on her head over her eyes. Data appeared on them for a moment before putting them up on her head again "Nice to meet you Krieg. And I believe my daughter is in danger so if you two would please knock it off and focus on the task at hand." she said. Shira smiled slightly at how Charlotte handled things before speaking "Uh... Krieg needs a place to stay too, that is another reason why I brought him. Hopefully that is alright..." Shira said. Charlotte nodded "Yes, I can find a place for him. Has to be bomb proof though..." she said, muttering the last part.
Atticus was in a really bad mood and Krieg's little antics only worsened it. Krieg had no idea what he was getting into, in trying to provoke him. Sighing, Atticus decided to let him be for now, as he did not want to have to deal with another weak-minded kishin. Atticus stood away from the group and let them speak to Charlotte, "Well, it seems that our business with him is concluded." he stated, simply writing Krieg off. "Shira, I will be heading to the Netherworld, on my own. Thanks to Luen, I may be able to find Mirai." he told her. "I don't think the Netherworld is suited for you, especially when you aren't necessarily at the strength capable enough to within the madness there." Of course he was talking about her not having her shinigami powers, but who knows, she could probably withstand it.
Atticus sighed as Shira stated that she would be coming as well. Well, he knew that she would not trust him to go on his own, especially since he suggested torturing Texas. "Fine, but I should tell you, that before coming here, I met up with Despair and sent him on ahead." Atticus looked over at Charlotte, "I told Charlotte, already, but I gave Despair the task of retrieving Texas, no matter what the cost, so more than likely, if he finds the two and they seek to attack him, he won't hesitate to strike and you know more than I, that at their current level, neither Mirai nor Texas, can stand a chance against him." Atticus warned before holding up his mechanical arm and emitting a black beam from it. The beam would hit the wall and form a black portal, connecting this world and the Netherworld. "With that in mind, we should move out immediately, before Despair gets to them." As he finished speaking, Atticus did not wait to hear Shira's response to him, essentially, sending out Despair as an bounty hunter to capture Texas, as he went through the portal.
Krieg looks at the group "Blow off the guy that helped you get this far? I see how it is. Shira, it be best if we don't see each other anymore." Krieg started to walk off going back to Death City. (Exits)
Shira watched as Atticus went one way and then Krieg decided to leave "W-Wait! Hold on!" she called to Krieg. Charlotte tapped her shoulder "I'll get him." she said. Shira stared at Charlotte for a moment before turning and going into the portal. Charlotte turned then and disappeared. ((exit))
After trying to get enough energy as well as rebuilding her realm, Charlotte appeared through a door into her office. Rubbing her head with a tired and worried expression. Her daughter, Mirai had sent her a quick telekinetic message explaining everything. Now her and her friends were going to attack the Machinist Order. She frowned, she wanted to do something but since Lord Death was still in no shape to take charge, she had to stay at Death City and keep watch over it. She sat down and looked up at the ceiling.
As Charlotte sat in her office, no doubt worried about everything that had transpired, she would sense an powerful soul wavelength appear in front of her door. Suddenly, there would be a knock and without waiting for Charlotte to reply, the mysterious figure would open it and enter her office. "My apologies, for the intrusion." the person stated, revealing his rather young face, with striking silver hair and dull grey eyes. "Death Scythe Abel Cross, codename: Terminus, reporting in." Abel stated, as he stared at the witch. Walking over towards her and taking a sit in front of the desk, Abel gave off a rather cold aura. "Sorry for barging in, but there are a few things that I am to discuss with you, since you are the acting Leader." As he said this, Abel never once looked away from Charlotte.
Charlotte's gaze went to the door right when she felt his wavelength. It seems to be a weapon. The man came in then and introduced himself. She stared at him for a moment before turning her hair to face him "Right. Nice to meet you." she started "What do you need?"
"Actually, there are many concerns that I have." Abel began. "Firstly, now that you are sort if in charge, you will need to organize a meeting between all the Death Scythes, so that you can properly explain the situation." As of now, there were only about two Death Scythes in the city that knew of the current that of Lord Death and what happened to the City itself. "Secondly, since Lord Death is not in good health at the moment, I would advise that you place Lady Shira and yourself, under my supervision. According to my Intel, she is currently without a partner and has left the city to go and fight some Organization, not to mention the fact that you, yourself have been attacked and injured as well. Of course you know that this is not acceptable. As she is the only active Shinigami at the moment and you are the current leader, both of your safety should be considered first and foremost. So, I would like you to appoint me as her guardian and your bodyguard." Taking a quick breath, Abel continued to speak, "Lastly, my colleague, has informed me of the current situation surrounding your family. While I can not understand your own feelings, I must assist that you focus only on the City and its people at the moment. They need your help more than your sons."
Charlotte stared at Abel as he spoke before leaning back in her chair and sighing "Right. I will announce a meeting soon... I want to wait for any more info on the Machinist Order though in case that meeting needs to be... expanded a bit." she said. "As for matters involving you..." she waved her hand and a file appeared. She opened it and flipped through the pages before reading for a few moments "...Alright... You are allowed to be Shira's guardian for the time being... and I guess I do need a bodyguard of sorts so yes to that too." she said before the file disappeared. "There is a chance I may send you to where ever Shira is... I don't like the fact that she is there, especially if the group they are fighting has abilities that can counter non-humans. Any group like that would love to get their hands on a shinigami..." she explained with a serious expression.
Abel didn't seem surprised by the fact that Charlotte pretty much agreed with his concerns. Though, something in him, told him to keep an watchful eye over her, but this is nothing new for him. Abel is not a very trust worthy person. As the file appeared before him and Charlotte read it, Abel only sat there, not say a word. Once everything was said and done, he would finally speak, "I figured as much. So, as a precautionary measure, I've been in contact with a member of the group that Lady Shira is traveling with. He is more than enough to take care of her, so for now, I will be here, watching over you." Abel told her, before clearing his throat. "Also, as a little bit of advise, you should not believe everything you read." he stated, in regards to her pulling out his file.
