Standing up, Xeion looked at her seriously through the blue goggles he wore while still retaining his smile.
"Are you certain about joining the Ravens?" Xeion asked bluntly while sporting a serious tone in his voice. "Because this isn't a game, you know. If you screw around, the enemies all over are going to eat you alive. To be honest, you seem like someone who would slack off at the first chance she gets. Am I right or wrong?"

Sadhbh became very insulted after he straightened back up, and thought to herself. "Maybe I should've listened to myself, and kicked him when he was bowing..." She then calmed herself, and tried to talk to him normally. "I'm completely positive. If I wasn't certain I would've stopped as the large amount of electricity passed through me." She got out her sentence without any problems, and smiled sadistically to him. "Trust me, I won't slack off. I will be a great Bount, and a great Raven. That is all I will be, and nothing less." She then looked back at Ky hoping he would reply soon.

Xeion smiled. "So I guess Ky was right when he said in his letter that you were a stuck up pre-madonna with a superiority complex. It's no wonder why you two get along so well." Xeion snickered then looked up at her once more with his cheerful outlook once again. "Well then, if you're finished, why don't we sneak out of this party and get you all prepped up, hmm?" Xeion said, walking up the stairs to a room on the second floor where they were supposed to etch the Raven's Mark tattoo on her forehead.
"Come on, don't be shy." He smiled, motioning over to the girl to go over to the chair in the middle of a man and a woman who stood beside it.

Sadhbh let another sneer inhabit her face as he finished his sentence, and then chose to remain silent. She followed Xeion into the room, and looked around for a bit. He then spoke again, and she moved forward to the chair. Sadhbh took a seat then looked back at him. "So, What exactly are we doing now?"

Raising their hands over her head, the two people began to chant, revealing themselves to be alchemists, as a large, white circle, full of words and sentences from alchemy books grew bright, radiating with immense power.
"Okay, now we're gonna have to let out your "inner" soul. Basically, for us shinigami, this is just like obtaining a shikai wherein you have to face your zanpakuto spirit. However, since Bounts can't get a zanpakuto spirit, you'd just have to confront your shadow self i.e. the embodiment of all your past regrets, failed dreams, fears, shortcomings, all that. If your ready, just say the word and I'll knock you out now."

Sadhbh watched as the circle glowed around her, and became brighter. "Oh, I see how it works. Anytime you're ready then, just knock me out." She said smiling confidently back at Xeion, and felt confident inside as well. She believed deeply that she had none of these problems, but would soon see that she too had some things to face.

Xeion smiled. "Good luck." He said and approached the girl with his finger raised. With a simple touch to her forehead, Xeion transferred a small amount of his reiatsu as an electrical surge which hit the young Bount girl's brain, altering her brainwave pattern slightly so that her brain would get "shocked", thus allowing the girl to go into an unconscious state. While waiting for her to finish, Xeion sat back and put Yuki on his lap. She seemed tired, but who could blame her? It had been a long day and even ghost girls need to rest.
"Hey, you okay, Yuki-chan?" Xeion asked while holding the young girl.
"Yeah...onii-chan, but I'm feeling tired...right now..." Yuki replied and yawned.
"Oh, okay. Sleep then, I'll watch over you, okay?"
Yuki smiled. "Thank you, nii-chan..." She said and kissed Xeion on the cheek before she went to sleep. As he cradled Yuki, Xeion also watched over the Bount girl, hoping that she would be just fine.
((You know what to do, Sadhbh-san. Good luck. 3nodding ))

((Me likes your plan of making it like the shikai thing, Xeion. I knew I could count on you.))
Just entering after he had entertained his guests downstairs, Ky looked at the people inside the room and saw that everything was well underway. The ritual was slowly proceeding successfully as he assumed that Sophie was probably dealing with her inner demons right about now, just as he, Xeion, Catherine, and all the other Ravens before them did under Jin Kariya.
Taking a seat beside the door, Ky crossed his legs in and held his hands together on his knee, just like a nobleman, waiting for Sophie to finish or for Xeion to wake up. "If this lady can pull this off, I'll bet she'd want to test out her powers immediately..." Ky thought to himself and began hatching a mischievous plan. Not destructive or anything, just mischievous.

[Enter From the Raven's Nest] Ken entered the mansion, helmet under his arm. He looked around and saw a bunch of people he didn't know. He tensed up and went upstairs to hide his helmet. He then came down and got a glass of water. He went to the corner of a room and sat down, sipping water. He looked around nervously cause a bunch of strange people he didn't know were talking out him. He tried to calm down, but just ended up hyperventilating. He then closed his eyes and, with much difficultly, fell asleep, in the chair.

After what seemed to be hours, Xeion woke up with Yuki still sleeping. Looking around, he saw that the ritual was still incomplete as Sadhbh was still in her unconscious state. Even though countless hours have already passed, the two alchemists presiding her, however, seemed unaffected by fatigue or any of the normal things that a normal human would experience during a strenuous activity such as this. They looked like they were used to this sort of thing being alchemists wherein patience is the name of the game.
Standing up with the young Yuki in his arms, Xeion proceeded out, seeing Ky also asleep on one corner of the room. Descending down the stairway, Xeion saw that the guests were beginning to leave and the wrap-up crew were diligently cleaning up after them. Xeion smiled and silently thanked the maids and butlers who were so hospitable to him and walked out of the door.
Placing Yuki safely in between him, Xeion started up his Rider and rode out. His job was don and everything was okay. Now, all he wanted was to head back to the Sereitei.

Waking up from his slumber, Ky yawned slightly and examined the room around him. Sophie was still in the process of obtaining her Raven's Mark while the two alchemists that aided in the ritual were starting to show signs of fatigue. It was understandable, they were still human, after all. Standing up, Ky extended his hands and began to take control of the ritual himself and relieved the two alchemists of their duties in order to allow them to rest for a bit, much to the appreciation of the two alchemists.
"She's taking longer than what I expected. She must really have some issues. Now if I could only find Ken..."

Waking up and hearing the Raven's process being done, he jumped up and ran down to where he saw Ky, Sophie, and two alchemists. He ran over to Ky and said, "Oh my god, I am so sorry. I fell asleep and I am missing it. What do i do?" Ky then pressed his thump and index finger on the center of his celtic cross and said, "Come to life with darkness and light, Schicksal-Blätter!" The twin swords appeared in his hands and he then looked to Ky to see what to do.

"Ah, good timing, Ken. Be a good boy and go sit in that other chair and let my two friends attend to you." Ky ordered as the two alchemists who were resting a bit earlier stood up and awaited for the boy. They were quite ready to give out yet another round of the same ritual, but this time, on Ken as Sophie was being tended to by Ky himself.

"Alright, I will, origato." Ken said as he walked over and sat down. He looked at the two alchemists and nodded.
