Welcome to Gaia! ::

((XD its ok! Not everyone knows about mangas and animes...My friends like alot of animes and mangas that I've never heard of!))

Netsubo finished charging the crystal. It seemed to glow from a power within,"Who am I healing first?"She inquired.

((this doesn't sound good at all...it's excting!! XD I'm sorry for the OOC bits, but there are reasons I have that can be backed up with evidence from the series that Ren could act how I depict him as! XD))

Kristal looked back up at Netsubo, and sighed again for the millionth time that day. "I would say that you should heal Shizuka-chan first, but--..."

Her head snapped around as she heard a dark, deep voice with the vision of a flaming red bird. Hao looked up suddenly too, having heard its voice as well.

"...they're in trouble!!" He cursed lowly, breaking free of Horo's grip and dashing past the ones gathered there. "Damn, I don't care if I'll get killed for this, but I have to show them that I...can...be...nice!!!"

Kristal looked from Netsubo to Hao, who was running off with amazing speed for someone who always flew or warped everywhere. "Um..." She tried to speak, becoming too confused about the entire situation. "...Hao can be nice...I think...he is Yoh's twin, after all..."

"And that's an explanation for his behavior?" Ren scoffed at her, crossing his arms. Horo began to laugh at the squabble, and looked over at Netsubo to see if she was laughing too. She wasn't, however, so Horo stopped laughing and tried to look a little more concerned. "How do we know we can still trust him, though? I don't still."

"Master Ren..." Kristal sighed, hanging her head. "...Netsubo-chan, I see what you mean by the impossibility of going after Hao and the others." Spiral made a small sound of disapproval as she approached him with rapid steps. She looked too serious for once; could she have possibly been considering something like..that? "Spiral, I know that we're related and all, and that I don't own your note, but..." She closed her eyes for a moment, inhaling slowly in an attempt to give her more courage. "...I want to make the deal. Give me your eyes for today."

((ooh! suspense! XD ...shouldn't we wait for Tinmaiden-san to get back on? and sorry fer the DN reference, but Spi is a shinigami...))

"Uh..." Kristal hesitated for a brief moment, so Spiral decided to take over for his nervous, timid little sister.

"I am a Shinigami, a God of Death." He told them calmly, floating up to oversee them all easier than he could while floating at Kristal's eye level. She looked like she was about to protest, but Horo and Ren were too caught up in what Spiral had just said fpor her to stop her little brother there, so she capitulated and let him continue. "I own what is known on the World of Death as a Death Note, in which if a human's name is written in it with the face of that human in one's mind, then that human will die."

"Unbelivable!" Ren shot at the spirit, though his voice held a tint of fear in it. "Shinigami don't exist; they never have and they never will."

Spiral disappeared and within the blink of an eye he was in Ren's face with a murderous look in his pitch black eyes. "Then again, there are humans all over this universe who say that spirits don't exist, and yet here we are, shamans that have just witnessed the Shaman King Tournament, and who are at this moment, talking to the spirit right before your very own eyes." Ren couldn't reply to that, but Spiral shrugged and just continued to speak. "Face it, Tao; you're living in a world of impossibilities, why not just have one more thing that is as impossible as channeling and communicating with ghosts? Or how about having a teammate that can bend the very fabrics of aTime and Space?"

"Spiral, stop it..." Kristal finally protested, stepping up to stop her spirit ally. "I just wanted the eye deal for today; I know you and I can do that, too. So why do you have this...need to explain everything to them? Couldn't you just explain the deal of the eyes of a shinigami?"

"I can't do that, and you know it, Kristal..." Spiral whined in a childish voice, twirling around in midair as if he was bored with standing still and looking serious. "You know that they would never understand anything if I did that..."

((ending this there, because it got long. gomene...I'm getting kicked off, so till tomorrow!! really, it's my fault for spending about five hours on here straight and testing my sister's patience, though...))

Smirking, Spiral neared Netsubo as close as he had been to Ren. "Well, there is neither Heaven nor Hell..." He noted in a scary tone of voice, though it was deeper than his usual childish voice. "But there is MU...the world where humans slowly and agonizingly painfully turn into the shinigami of the Near future..."

Horo, Kristal, and Ren were all silent in the space of a minute; Horo pondering, Ren fuming, and Kristal fidgeting. Finally, Spiral regained his post higher above them all so he could look down on them all with his now slitted red eyes that held no trace of light in them. He looked as if he was going to continue his explanation, but paused for a few seconds to choose his choice words.

"That's about all you mortals need to know, really..." He shrugged in a nonchelant way. "This eye deal which my sister and I have is different for a normal human, however, because we're related. That means that she's half shinigami..."

Kristal twisted further into herself, away from all the cold hard stares even though it was where they were dwelling. "I-I'm a freak..." She muttered lowly, half hoping that no one would hear her. "...I know I am..."

((heh. Shnigami Spiral is so cool...I have a picture of him, but it's in my camera...))

Spiral smirked. "Now there's a human who actually understands!" He laughed, taking an apple out of his pocket and biting into it savagely. "Ignore me as I eat this. I'm just here to watch now."

"Spiral!!" Kristal sighed, after bowing in thanks to Netsubo. "You never answered me about that deal...and you know, you're my spirit ally, and therefore you can't just sit around and watch..."

Horo nudged Ren and shrugged. "I have no idea what's going on. Do you?"

Not much has happened actually...Um, Krystal was about to make a deal for the shinigami eyes with Spiral, her spirit ally/brother who's a death god...um..Shizuka's friend is about to get taken over by one of those spits...and Netsubo has a fuly charged blood crystal ready to try to heal the spirits out of everyone..))

rofl go for it!))
