Waking back into Capsule Corp, Timothy was trying to focus on his new objective. He knew it probably wouldn't be too hard to get Yuki alone. After all, she had no reason to be suspicious of him. About to enter the medical wing once again, he noticed the red headed boy was still standing outside of the entrance. "Hey! You know, you have some nice hair." he proclaimed. He went on to ask kindly "So is that your natural hair color? What kind of shampoo do you use?"

Kaguyo did the only thing she could, which was start to freeze the water. She didn't think she would be fast enough this time, however... "LET GO!" she shouted, sending an elbow flying back into his face, "Let GO!!!" She sent elbow after elbow flying back at the man, even going so far as to try and drown him herself.
"What else? Aoki." Morrigan answered, "Konton. We need to kill him somehow... end all this chaos once and for all."

Itachi's dark gaze focused on Timothy and her left eye twitched slightly. "I dyed it." she spoke, figuring that he wouldn't have realized WHY it was dyed in the first place. "Where did you go..." she fished for a name. "Seems I haven't met you before." But the assassin didn't move toward him. Instead, she was quickly taking stock of the young man.

"Oh, well it looks really good on you!" he replied with a smile. He then held out his hand and said "My name is Timothy Jackson, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance."

"Wakatta yo..." Po-ar whispered. He was glad Morrigan's eyes were closed... for the fear that clouded the Tarnb-jin Ouji's vision was obvious for a moment. "If Aoki and Aoikage really have switched sides... Konton will be alone. If everyone were to mount an attack..." Po-ar sighed, closing his eyes and banishing the fear he felt. "We all need rest."
~ ~ ~
Reaching up out of the water, Ainsu grabbed Kaguyo's hair and pulled hard, bringing the woman underwater. His ki was flaring, keeping the water from turning to ice around him. Fingers tangled in the woman's hair, the Muse was hellbent on drowning her.

Her gaze fell on his hand. "Forgive me if I don't shake hands. Boke wa Itachi desu." The assassin's eyes kept him in check, watching for any hostile movements. After all the s**t she'd gone through with her interrogations after her Ainsu assassination attempt... the woman wasn't taking chances.
(((OOC: *uses a Val Kilmer, Doc Holliday, "Tombstone" accent* Forgive me if I don't shake hands." Oh yeah... you know it!)))

Timothy looked a bit disappointed, but he shook it off and replied "Oh..it's perfectly fine!". He walked up and casually leaned his back against the wall next to Itachi. "So Itachi, do you have a girlfriend? If not...need some help getting one!?" he asked playfully with a smile.

A hard coldness set itself in Itachi's gaze. "I don't date women." she replied honestly, her eyes never leaving Timothy. Just in case he was a threat. "I don't date anyone for that matter, but especially not women."

Timothy jumped a bit, shocked at Itachi's answer. After regaining his posture, he asked "So are you one of those homosexual men that keep popping up these days?".

What to do, what to do, what to do... Kaguyo couldn't breathe, couldn't escape, couldn't use ice to her advantage. What to do?! She decided to do the only thing she could think of, even if she had never expected it to go so far... Po-ar wasn't going to be happy with her or anyone of them really. Her ki flared, starting to evaporate the water; more importantly, she sent a ki ball at the drain. With a small explosion the plug was destroyed, sending gallons of water gushing into the drains. She couldn't help but laugh, actually able to smirk for the first time so far. "What now, Muse-sama?" she started tossing elbows again, "I'm not giving up!!" She had just literally decided the difference between life and death, at least so far as drowning was concerned. She landed another elbow square in his chin, willing to fight him tooth and nail to stay alive.
Morrigan yawned deeply. "Isn't that the truth..." she whispered, "But would Aoikage do it, I wonder...? Aoki would, no doubt..." Aoki was getting the first sleep he'd had in years, visible from their hallway. "He looks happy.... relieved.... doesn't he...? It's almost sad..." she glanced up at him, "I can't imagine what the demon did to him to make him want to leave...."

Mirroring Morrigan's yawn, Po-ar did the same. "He said something about wanting to lock Aoikage in the closet." the Tarnb-jin Ouji whispered. "Konton probably made it to where he'd crave bringing Aoikage back." sighing, the man shook his head. "I don't trust either of them... no matter what Kazuhiko says, Mor-chan..."
~ ~ ~
Fast as lightning, Ainsu grabbed Kaguyo's arms, preventing her from hitting him again. "Guess I'll have to kill you then." he spoke, his ki beginning to burn. Literally. It was the same sort of tactic that Aled had used on Aoki. Use the ki to burn the flesh. As smoke started to rise from the Muse's grip, he suddenly felt himself pulled backward, away from Kaguyo. Slamming into a rather solid body, the Muse twisted, trying to free himself. But one arm about his neck and the one over his forehead stopped him. It wouldn't have taken much to break the man's neck. "I think you've done enough damage." Aled hissed, holding Ainsu tightly. "Stop, or I'll snap your neck. I doubt either of you really want that because the second I do it... I'll burn your body to ashes. Neither will survive. Got it?" Smirking, the Muse tried to look back and up at the Tarnb-jin Ou. "Yeah well, looks like you have more fight in you than you let on. You'll give out eventually, Aled..." The Ou paled slightly when he felt Ainsu's hands, palms backward behind him, resting against his stomach. There were obviously small balls of ki gathered in his hands. "Who'll strike first, I wonder. I don't want to die, you don't want to die... it's a shame really. One twitch from me and I'll blow your stomach open." Aled's grip never wavered. "And one pull from me, and your neck will snap like a twig. Looks like we have a stalemate." "Looks like it." the Muse agreed with a devilish smirk.
~ ~ ~
"I'd rather not discuss it." Itachi spoke, pushing off the wall and walking across the room, her back to Timothy. If he so much as moved... "Aren't you supposed to be in there helping?" she asked, not looking back at him. "You're a medic, or at least one in training. Leaving Yuki-san and Morrigan-dono to fend for themselves? How many injured does this make now?"

Letting out a small sigh, Timothy replied "Everything that I could help with has been taken care of. Saving lives is still fairly new to me...". He smiled and added "So before my next class, I thought it would be nice to have a conversation with someone. After all, you seem to be an interesting person Itachi."

"I trust Kazuhiko." Morrigan shook her head, "Aoki, no idea, but... the way Aoikage is with him... Kazuhiko wouldn't bring a threat back to us." she admonished him gently. "You shouldn't have so little faith in someone who was once on our side."
Kaguyo had started to scream loudly; sure, it was one thing to shoot ki; it was fire-like after all... But to be burned by it whenever the strongest part of her spirit was ice... Well, it was absolutely agonizing. Once Ainsu had been taken away, she just focused on breathing and not passing out. "Kisama...!" she hissed, regaining control, "YOU b*****d!" She wasn't going to let Ainsu hurt Aled; she wasn't going to lose the two men in her life she actually loved and cared for. She charged Ainsu, using an intense shot of ki to amplify her speed; wrapping her arms around his, she tackled the man free from Aled. On the bright side, Aled's stomach would remain the pride and joy of his physique; on the down side, she had more or less defeated the purpose of Aled saving her in the first place. Pinning Ainsu to the ground, she started slugging him in the face as many times as she could. She had to use the element of surprise against him before his speed kicked in again. "CUFFS!" she shouted to Aled, "There has to be a pair around here somewhere!!" This had been his dimension once upon a time, after all.
Yuki in the meanwhile was taking blood samples from Watari, trying to figure out a way to single out his muse. She'd been studying for hours now with little success. She took off her glasses, leaning back in her chair. "Watari-kun," she glanced over him, "I need your help... I can't figure out anything from your blood OR Aoki's... just that both are different. Can't find a source. Do you have the energy to look??"

Sighing, Po-ar nodded. "I know but... he tried to kill you, Mor-chan. I don't take well to that from anyone really." the Tarnb-jin Ouji laughed softly, kissing his love's temple. "Maybe I'm a little too overprotective?"
~ ~ ~
Aled was moving the second Kaguyo had Ainsu down. He dashed out of the bathroom, looking through cabinets and drawers. Po-ar had rearranged everything it seemed. 'Kuso...' the man thought, digging and searching through anything he could find. Meanwhile, Ainsu was laughing hysterically. "You still love him!" Even though his face was turning into a rather bloody pulp... the Muse still laughed. "You love them both and they're both so ******** up anyway! This is brilliant! Insanity seems to charm you, hahahahaha!"
~ ~ ~
"What is there to figure out?" a voice spoke from behind Yuki. Aoikage had returned, his wings having disappeared altogether into his back. Looking at the scientist, the daemon passed a hand over his face and almost instantly, Watari was awake. "Not a very deep trance..." Aoikage spoke. At least until Watari realized who was there. Without thinking, well obviously it took a bit of thought, but quickly Watari slammed a ball of ki into Aoikage's face. The daemon stepped back, hands going to his singed skin. In truth, one couldn't blame Watari. He's just saw Yuki standing beside the daemon after all. And he was rather protective. Not to mention Aoki had caught his glance a bed away as well. "What the hell?" he spoke, completely sitting up and standing. Of course he had to lean against the bed for a moment, but he was more than a little freaked out. "Yuki... Yuki, daijoubu ka?" Hissing, Aoikage brought his hands away from his face, "That hurt." he said, trying to wipe away the burn marks. "You suck at fighting... but it still hurts."
~ ~ ~
"M... M'Lord?" Smirking, the demon's eyes opened ever so slightly. He took in the frightened palace guards, watching them with open amusement as they stood in a line before him. Lounging against the throne, quite comfortable, Konton allowed his essence of fear to blanket the marble floors. It was a tangible cloud that rolled forward, overtaking the guards and even causing one man to drop the spear he held. "What is it?" Konton asked, his voice deep and soft. The guard captain stepped forward. "M... M'Lord we..." he licked his lips, trying to find the words as pure fright boiled through his veins. "We are concerned about the change in leadership, M'Lord. It..." "Do you all have a problem with where I sit?" the demon replied, moving to sit up and stare the guards down. One of them visibly flinched, but they nodded. Smirking once more, Konton tilted his head to the side slightly. "Then kill me. Come at me with your spears." Not a man moved and, for a while it seemed like it would stay that way. But the guard captain suddenly charged, his spear down and aimed for the demon's heart. Konton stood swiftly, in a movement so fluid that he seemed to hardly move at all. He reached out, grabbing the captain's shoulder as he sidestepped the spear's thrust. With a sickening pop and a tearing screech... the guard's right arm tore free from his body. Screaming, the guard fell to floor, blood coating the marble. Konton however, simply watched the other guards. "Do you know why you fear me?" he asked those still assembled while the fallen man continued to wail. "Because I can dismember every single on of you... I can rend your flesh from your muscles, your muscles from your bone. I can break you, bend you, tear into every organ you possess. I can crush your skulls, drink your blood, and poke out your eyes. I can eat every last portion of your bodies... and finally... digest the very soul which makes you who you are." Konton smiled devilishly. "And you'll feel every moment of it. No release, no mercy..." One of the guards had outright fainted by now. The bleeding man had even stopped screaming, so terrified was he. Turning, Konton smirked to his victim. He lifted the arm, licking the blood dripping from the dismembered member... and then threw it at the terrified guard captain. "Get him healed." the demon spoke, stepping over the prone man and moving to a blank wall. Konton pricked his finger as the palace guards dragged away their captain. The demon carefully traced symbols and runes about the blank wall. It was the same fashion which he had used to transport Aoki to Po-ar's dimension, and to take himself into Kaguyo's mind. However, once a wall became a door, it was impossible for it to be used as a door to anywhere but the original intention. When the lines of blood began to glow, a strange scene swirled within this new door. Laughing darkly, Konton stepped into the Fae Otherworld...
~ ~ ~
A very thin needle suddenly appeared, embedded into the wall beside Timothy's head. "I don't have little conversations." Itachi spoke coldly, her gaze on the windows into the medical wing. She was watching everything inside, putting it to memory. For some odd reason, she had a horrible feeling...

Morrigan smiled, kissing Po-ar's cheek. "Perhaps." she agreed, "But I couldn't change you even if I wanted to, ne?" But she rose to her feet, moving to the windows. Like her lover she was good at concealing the worry in her eyes; what he sensed was a different story. Something was agitating the woman, and she couldn't place her finger on it. All she knew was that she had known this sinking feeling in her stomach before... A long, long time ago, when she and another used to rule her tribe in her homeland... "I think I'm homesick." she whispered to Po-ar, "We've been at your home so many times... I... I guess I just miss my family." she smiled sadly, glancing back at him. "I miss my home."
This only drew more rage from Kaguyo, grabbing him by the hair and leaning close. "URUSAI!!! Quit F#CKING with our LIVES!" she screamed, bashing his head off the floor, "I'LL F#CKING KILL YOU BOTH!" She got off him, grabbing his wrists and flinging him into a wall; it had been a very, very long time since Kaguyo had been instigated into such a frenzy. Her blood lust was the most powerful either of them had seen since her first few attempts on Aled's life. "URUSAI!!! U-RU-SAI!!!" She sent ice-shards splintering like glass into the man, followed by ki-empowered punches to the stomach. Another roundhouse kick to the jaw was in order; she got faster when she was angry. If he didn't start pulling his weight against her now, there was the distinct chance that Kaguyo would hold true to her word. "Ainsu," she whispered menacingly, "I know you're in there. Start fighting your battle you sonoffabitch! If I can fight it better than you can..." she glared, "Perhaps I SHOULD go back to Aled!" Another underhanded stunt on her part, but she always knew how to get Ainsu good and pissed off enough to fight. There was only one simple trigger, and he'd be just as murderous as she was. Mention Aled. "Help me Su-kun..." her gaze softened, if only for a second, "Let's fight side by side like we used to." Another stiff punch to the face and she was back on her battle frenzy.
Yuki smiled softly. "Forgot to tell you, he's on our side now." she calmed the scientist down, "Now, for the two of you... The cells are different." she looked to them, "I can't figure it out."
