She nodded, taking a few steps closer, it wasn't so bad given it was only a remnant of Spiral, not the real thing. "You realize this is going to be the easiest thing in the world, given that he ain't no where close to being dead." She fiddled with her necklace. It wasn't impossible to pull the shadow away from Lucian, but she'd basically be yanking his healthy as a horse soul out of his body, and she was willing to bet it would protest.
She stared long and hard at the shadow. She wanted to check out that third entity as well. She looked back up and took note of the stitching on his mouth. Would explain why he wasn't talking. 'Ready when you are then...just say when, and the fragment might have to release the bounds, cause those are going to sting and be nothing but a hassle.' She wrapped her fingers around the stone of her necklace as she spoke.

The fragment nodded, releasing its bonds.
"Now!" he called, urging Lucian to keep a hold on himself.

Narcisa would yelp as the silver nitrate just grazed against her as she leapt out of the way, it was still enough to burn the hell out of the lycan. Howling in pain, she'd fall over, her lycan form melting from her body, closing her eyes she tried to focus on where the nitrate got her. The would would slowly heal but Narcisa was in loads of pain and tried not to show it. She'd place her hand on purplish bruise mark and slowly rose. "He isn't well...... he must not....see Lord..Vincent..." She'd realize she was naked but for now she didn't care.

Shade yanked her necklace off, teh chain breaking clean. The purple leaked into her eyes in there entirety, leaving no difference in color in any part of her eye. Those candle wax looking wings had show up too, a glass bottle hung from one wing, teh soul of Hercules still inside. The necklace itself melted, leaching onto her hand as she moved it and stuck it through Lucian grabbing hold of his shadow. "Deep breath." she warned then yanked hard.The distinct sound of metal being ripped apart sounded as the threads that connected the shadow to him where ripped and torn. Her free hand moved to force his actual soul to stay put. She took a step back and held tightly to the shadow. It twisted in attempts to get free, tendrils of it trying to reattach to Lucian.
Annette haad moved to stand by the wolf as she howled. Pulling her long coat off she knelt to wipe away the silver. It didn't bother her at all, and her instincts as a doctor had kicked in. "See me in the Catacombs later, I'll have something for teh burns." she instructed flatly. She moved next to lay teh coat over teh girl before standing to watch the spectacle.

ALLOW ME.
A scythe erupted from nowhere, hooking into the shadow and pulling it free. Spiral sprang out of the body, and Death replaced the shadow.
YOU HAVE DONE WELL IN MY ABSCENCE, YOUNG LADY. BUT I HAVE SAD NEWS TO REPORT. ASHURA HAS PASSED.

Shade in took a sharp breath as Death showed up, she wasn't expecting that. She moved and took the bottle from her wings, tossing it to Death. She hadn't had the time or energy to take him to him earlier. "Well that takes care of a few problems, but brings up more in it's place. That means Gilgamesh, Arthur, Enkidu, and the others are home free." She'd say this, meaning for it to be English, but everything came out in Greek in this form. She gestured toward teh bottle. "One less to worry about."

Death placed the bottle in his cloak, then pulled away the hood to reveal... a perfectly normal, human face. Not the most handsome, but not a skull, either.
"Listen, Shade. If, by some happenstance, I am targeted, I want you to take over for me. I am not as... strong as I once was." he said softly, "I doubt, though, any of the heroic spirits or embodiments would be so foolish. Goodbye for now."
And then he vanished.
"It's just as he planned." the fragment stated quietly.

He wouldn't scream, squirm, or anything else really. Well, other then pass out. He looked happy as he slept, though! It wouldn't be long though before he'd awaken again, his head throbbing...his quick recovery was all thanks to a conversation he'd had in another realm with a certain restrained individual. He'd look about the area and see Melaina...and he smiled. Spiral's absence made him grin, and the fact he'd hit the wolf made him chuckle even. "I take it...things went all good? Oh owe ya one, hot s**t. I really do..." Only Melaina could hear this of course.
Soon though his eyes would grow wide and he'd flip his gun, turning it into a Remmington style Trench Gun filled with nasty explosive ultraviolet rounds and take aim in what seemed to be the air, though it was soon filled...
His sword was on Lucian's shoulder, the point actually touching his flesh. His cape would flow behind him quickly in the non-existent breeze to symbolize his anger, though one could see that from the glare in his crimson hues and fangs bared at Lucian. "Yes, now I remember you! You seemed very familiar but I couldn't place my finger on you...I wasn't aware you vere immortal! Had I known it vas you things vould have been...extremely different. But don't speak, little Lucy! As if you could..." He had to chuckle at Lucian's predicament and his own joke.
He'd quickly disperse as a swarm of bats and fly up to a statue of Michael, quickly taking his form once more. "You vant your payment for something you did centuries ago, yes? Tell me, am I still expected to pay up in gold, little Lucy?" More chuckling. "No...I vill pay you with the same armor you pierced through to end the wolf's life. I've been meaning to give them out...the girl's will go to Narcisa as it was meant for stealth. Karlan's armor vill go to you...Melaina, is it? It is meant to improve upon powers of the...dark...variety. Annette, you vill take on the armor of your brother by dark blood...I believe he'd have it no other way."
He'd vanish into the statue and reappear from Annette's shadow, looking over Narcisa. "I'll make sure that anything beyond a piercing hit form those damned bullets vill never touch you again...my apologies, to all of you for my sleep." He'd look over them all, though his eyes would stop on Melaina. "Interesting display with Death...I tried to make it here in enough time to ask him who so kindly brought me back, but obviously I failed."
With a snap of his fingers (from here on, please post in "Castle - Conference Room" though I will finish my post off here.) and they would all appear within a large room dimly lit by torches at a table of oak and seats of iron. He'd take his seat at the only throne there, the armors (armors can be custom designed; meant to enhance powers to Kain-level degrees and protect from nearly any weapons) all laid out before them, with name tags even! "Please...sit, examine. Speak."
Migoto was already there, still working on his own custom armor made from silk as opposed to the clunky metal that made his joints hurt. "My apologies my beloved Lord, but this is the best room to create in; plenty of room and a hard surface! I do hope I don't get in anyone's way...but if I do I'm sure you'll keep your mouths shut and get over it."
Lucian...had no time to speak. He had come expecting payment, yes, but Vincent was right. Had he wanted gold? Did he wanted Euros, or was he expecting some other currency? But when he found himself before the armor he'd pierced to kill a Sh'Zual, he'd grin enough to tear his stitches apart and thus force them to vanish. He'd take his seat and run his hand over the plate he'd pierced...the wonderful memories. "I can humor you I suppose; I know that this kind of payment doesn't come without further service." He'd switch two name tags, though, making sure Melaina was next to him instead of Vincent.
