((EEP! CLASS TIME!!))
Heswina's body disapeared in a flash of white light as the weapons lunged towards Shadow. Each weapon had a mind of it's own and would use it to slay Shadow. The weapons had no body to strike, and had no mind to effect, the only thing he could do was fend off their attacks until the mystic strings faded and died.

Shadow raised an eyebrow at the weapons and laughed. He simply melted back into the floor but as he did he made an odd sign with his left hand. As he completed it there was a slight distortion and he was upstairs while a duplicate of him moved rapidly back and forth beneath the floor of the dojo. It possessed his power signature while the true him upstairs seemed bereft of magic. It would stall the weapons while he looked in on Dear David, 9's dearly beloved son. He moved through the door to his room and smiled. Working quickly he used a claw to pierce the flesh of his left thumb and moving the hair back from behind his ear traced a quick pattern with a touch as light as his own hair brushing his skin. The glyph would cause David to hear screams of pain and a voice whispering that "they just wanted to hurt him", any time someone began to use magic on him. At least until the glyph was removed with holy water or a purifying spell.
Shadow stood and nodded. It was a good thing the boy had been so badly injured last night and was unconcious. Now it was unlikely anyone would know until too late.

Now that he had finished what he had come to do Shadow summoned the double to him and as they merged he merged with the floor and shot down an outer wall and into the earth. He was heading rapidly to his tower but decided half way to make another detour.

9 walked in slowly. She was quiet as her hands shook slightly from the the vileness of the thousands of souls crowded around her own. She worked so hard to turn away from that life. She owned the Black Company and made it onto a welcoming place for everyone. She even found a boy that she called son.
As she walked up the stairs 9 clenched her jaw. She wasn't about to loss to Shadow. And if need be she was willing to give up her own life to stop him.
She stopped walking just outside of Davids room. Resting her hands on the door 9 quietly prayed for his saftly. 9 slowly pushed the door open just enough to see if David was still breathing and ok. She smiled as she saw his chest rising and fallig with each breath he took.
9 closed the door behind her and walked back down starts. she took a seat on the couch with her her hear in her hands. She was worried what Shadow might do if she didn't stop him soon.

::Matsuo enters in the darkness of the rafters bored, she drops down and lands softly and heads to her usual seat. Sitting down she grabs her silver flute and begins to play a soft tune, light and airy as it seemed it still had a dark and melancholy melody that made you stop and listen to the song closer::

"Hello Mastsuo. How are you today?"
9 asked softly. She didn't look up from where she was sitting.

9 looked over to Matsuo when she didn't get an answer.
"Matsuo... are you ok?"
9 spoke a little louder this time to make sure she heard her.

::Matsuo smiles in return, still a little embarassment on her cheeks. She shakes it off and then smiles sweetly::
So what is going on? It seems tat you are slightly different then we last talked.
::Matsuo looked at 9 closely, looking into her eyes noticing that something was a miss::

"Yes...do tell 9..." He cooed gently from the rafters, slidding down into the light of the Dojo.

"What is it Xol?"
9 said with a growl. She quickly turned to Matsuo
"My son is dying and I don't know how to save him."

::Matsuo turns to Xol a look of hate in her eyes::
So then, Xol, how is your new "puppet"?
::Matsuo then returns her attention to 9::
What is his maladies?

"I really thought you were smarter 9. I had hoped you wouldn't fall for such petty tricks as the ones Tysrais is using on you. Although in time of weakness I guess we let other things guide us instead of our brain." He grinned maliciously, slowly walking towards her. "Tell me 9, are the Rose swords still active?"
