Welcome to Gaia! ::

Mindscape

Akakage was still sprawled on the ground with the constant memory becking him on to die. "It would be easier to just die..."

Then the landscape changed again. Revealing a memory he has not thought of in awhile. It was when he just started teaching in the school as deducted from the younger looking him. "Wow I looked different, I forgot I had a ponytail before. Good thing I cut my hair." with a small smile on his face. As the scene continued he was reminiscing of one of the first conversations with Silver. "I remember that, that was the first time she scolded me. Wait there's more to this memory. I never stay behind to see her reaction." Seeing the blush dawned on her face, "This memory isn't mine. But how..." as the memory ended he was again bombarded with memories but this time they all were similar situations. They were memories of all the times he escaped one of her scoldings and he couldn't help but notice how she changed with every suggestion or trick he had.

Being revitalized at all the new memories he stood up shakily. "I don't know what's happening but I feel a lot better now." As he said this the whole world went pitch black once more. Then an eerie mist started to settle around Akakage. Out from the mist came a figure. It was Akane in a beautiful kimono. She had the medallion around her neck.

"Akakage-kun why?" Her face had tears streaming from her beautiful face. "Why did you kill me?"

Akakage's strength was wavering this was what he worst feared. "I didn't want to, I loved you!"

She didn't answer him all she did was revealed her red katana. Giving him a sorrowful look, "I'm so lonely without you Aka-kun. Come join me." As she dashed forward and pierced through his chest.

Gasping, he felt the weapon pierce through him. "Aka...ne... why?" he asked as tears were rolling down his face.

"Don't worry Aka-kun, no one will miss you if you died." She said with a psychotic smile on her face.

Reality

Akakage's body convulsed in reaction to what was happening in his head. In response a little bit of his demonic aura was leaking from his body slowly giving him a more lively look.

Teme kept his link with his master although the strain is tiring him. "Silver you saw didn't you?"He was referring to how her memory had helped him a little. "His body is beginning to heal itself thanks to your memory but we need something more. I'll be able to project your voice in his head but for only a limited time. You need to say something that will remind him of you. Are you ready?"

((Sorry it took so long, I was eating dinner. To help you out Silver, sometimes its better to sing than to say anything. wink ))

Namen gasped, just barely managing to move her leg in time, but he had managed to slice off quite a bit of the back of her skirt, shortening it considerably in the back. She only noticed because she felt a considerable weight change due to the two round weights she kept on her skirt being part of what had been cut off. She laughed, though her sword was stuck in the ground, and she refused to let go of it. "If I didn't know better I'd say you were trying to kill me!" she said, yanking at her sword. It came up a little and the dirt began to pucker. This was no good. She didn't have near the manly strength Varnis did. She'd have to trick him into pulling it out somehow... Going against everything in her, she released the hilt of her sword and hopped back a little. "Oh, look, Varnis. You win." she said

She swung it around once or twice and then lowered it. Her eyes shifted towards the scythe, It's deep blue handle was made out of some rare metal. The large, curved diamond blade seemed to sparkle underneath the light of the sun. She seemed to have a glow of pride in her eyes as she looked once more to the sword, though there was a hit of sadness that was in her from before.

((True, but she wouldn't think of that right away LOL))

"My voice?" she questioned. She thought a moment. She said the first thing that came to her mind.
"Akakage, stop slacking off! You're stronger than that! Now prove it!"

((No, he's fine. :3 Namen's only sparred with her grandfather and only really knows how to predict her grandfathers moves. XD Namen, however, is a dirty fighter. lol))

She smiled. She still had the dirt in her hand, and as soon as she had her sword in her hand, she threw the dirt full force where she estimated his face might be. "Just kidding!" she called. She knocked his armored chest with the butt of her sword as she ran past him, so she'd know about where he'd be attacking from next.

As the dirt went into Varnis eyes and mouth, he cringed in pain with the dirt in his eyes. He had started to rub his eyes in an effort to get the dirt out, until he was butted with Namen's Rapier, he fell to the ground. He quickly got back up, but he couldn't see, because of the dirt. "You got me with that one..." He had said while trying to get the dirt out of his mouth. He grabbed his Katana, and looking around trying to find her, but he couldn't see he because of the dirt in his eyes. So he decided to force himself to cry to get rid of the dirt in his eyes.

((You could have taken my Katana when you ran away you know. And yes dirt in you eyes hurts, but saw dust is even worse... >.<))

Luna shook her head and stood up from the table she had been sitting at in the Libary attempting to get all her missed work done. The pile was gone for now at least so she packed everything is a black bag and walked to get something to eat as she now realized how hungery she actually was. On the way she heard the sounds of combat but didn't really think about it as it was something she used to hear every day, besides this was a school for weapons training.

"That's the last time I go off campus for something," thought Horatus as he trudged up the streat toward the school. "The intire trip wasn't worth it. Could have sent a group of students out to get the damn thing and made it a mission instead of hiking all the way out there and back." Marching up the stairs he slammed the doors open and continued to his office where there wasn't any noice, dust, or any other bothersome anything.
