((Alright! I like you two. razz ))
"Come on," Kurai grunted at Windy, then paused. No one seemed to be moving anymore, and everything had gotten disturbingly quiet. She wasn't even sure she could hear the static from the massive screen behind them anymore. Kurai looked between each of her companions as a creeping sensation sent shivers down her spine. Everyone seemed to be waiting and listening, but Nex and Rohan looked like they were concentrating. She looked nervously between them both trying to gauge what was going on.
"I... Is it bad?" She finally ventured, not sure who she was addressing.

((OH ITS GAME TIME, to follow who I am talking about take a look in my journal. Posting entry on Unraveller's now, one moment please after this post is up.))
Rohan met Kurai's stare with his own and nodded a 'yes'.
"I am going to destroy you Rohan Zantos, Celestia's victory is omnipotent, the Nether will do nothing. You and I have un-finished buisness." said Tiena's voice.
"Kurai," Rohan said "When I was in Celestia, I had an acquaintance, Her name was Tiena. She's mad that I left and went to the Nether, so when I left the ranks of the Nether, she decided to hunt me down, the angsty ex-girlfriend she is," Rohan cleared his throat at the awkwardness of the conversation. "She's here with her Unraveling cronies."
In addition to all the things on the material things on the world known as Lenoria, the spiritual worlds were now adding to its decay.

((No prob, but I'm afraid I'm gonna have to cut out here within about a half hour or so. ^_^; ))
"Ce...Celestia?" Kurai muttered in disbelief, "N-nether? You've... But they're just storie..." Kurai fell silent. She remembered what so many had said about the World of Blood when she first sought it out. No, she shouldn't be surprised. If anything, she should have been expecting it. Hadn't she already proved there was more to most stories than people gave credit.
"What do we do?" She asked stiffly, tonelessly.

Celia looks at Rohan in shock, the words knocking the wind out of her.
'Celestia?!'
She looks down, her gaze worried and unsure.
"There's such a thing as....a place called...Celestia?"
She looks down confused, her worry evident as her hair returns to normal.
'I'm a Celeste...is their a connection?'
She shakes her head profusely, her thoughts becoming too much.
'I shouldn't worry about it now...There's an unavoidable battle coming...'
Her stare becomes stern once more.

((Raveller entry up))
Rohan turned to Kurai, still somewhat distracted by Tiena's voice. "They are testing us, the way it goes is this: I used to belong to both sides before I created the Astral Beast- Nex will tell you all about that- anyways, I maintained my chi connections to both worlds making me a neutral party in all their doings and undoings. Well when they decided to try and go to war they came looking for me and I told them both 'whoever tries at me first will be my enemy.' I still hold chi lines to both worlds meaning in this situation, if Celestia kills me the Nether chi will become my life force, aligning me with them and putting me into a form you don't want to see. Thus, they will go to a losing war and vice versa."

"Lovely," Kurai rolled her eyes, "As if there weren't enough wars taking battlefields here already. But if we're just being tested, they're not going to try too hard to kill us, right? And they can't kill you without losing the war? So what have we got to worry about?"

Celia swiftly shakes her head at Rohan's response, disappointed at the slight possibility of finding her existence crushed before it began. She frowns at him before slightly turning her body away, her sword ready in front of her, it's blade gleaming, ready to be stained with blood. Her hair goes dark once more.
"Who cares? No harm in a little fun now is there?"

Kurai eyed Celia with a bit of concern, blinking a bit to make sure she wasn't just tired. This seemed like such a drastic change from her unsure and timid personality before. Was she really the same person? Maybe battle brought out a different part of her, like...
No, better not to think abut him. She needed to be ready for the oncoming battle. And with few ingredients left, that meant she would need to remain calm and focus on the emotions left behind from those who lived and died here.
((sorry but I've gotta get to bed. Calc test and whatnot in the morning. I'll be on tomorrow night, though. Until then, 'night everyone!))

Rohan acknowledged Kurai's reasoning, "Yes this is true, they can't kill me for the sake of the war," Rohan assured "However, this is Tiena, she'd try and kill me for sake of killing me because we have had a past together. She might do it totally ignorant of her duty, though," Rohan paused to consider, "Imprisonment and keeping me alive on their terms would be the other option. Remove me as a factor entirely. Though that question only holds one answer," Rohan smirked and held his Mp7's up "To prevent imprisonment, the hunted must kill the hunter."
Rohan looked at Celia, very curiously, she had undergone a serious mood swing. "If thats gonna be the case Celia, I need you to be stable. If you pose a harm to any of us because of some uncontrollable rage...there might be a problem," Rohan insinuated and thought of a proverb from his teachings many years ago, something that played a massive role in his life so far "If you can't tell your friends from your enemies, then its time to go." Rohan then lightened his tone despite all the chaos hoping to show some sort of character "I need you to be on my side in this."

Nex had slid down the side of the building, using the daggers to slow his fall enough. After a quick glance here and there, he was with the others in no time, back beside Rohan.
"Yeah, ask me..."
His eyes narrowed on Rohan, though his tone of voice showed sarcasm.
"Would it be awkward if I called you poppa?"
He grinned confidently, somewhat at his own joke, but more-so to the upcoming fight. Nex then looked to Celia.
"I'd like to see ya say that when you look down to see a tip of a sword pokin' out of your chest! Talk about awkward! Feels so weird... Anyway, that's a good attitude to have, I guess, just don't let it consume you. Overconfidence is the greatest enemy."
A hand rested on one of the Wakazashi's hilts. Nex's next words seemed to defy his others, but in truth he wasn't overconfident, but just liked to laugh.
"Whoever this is, should hurry their asses up..."

Celia turns to him slowly, her smirk fading. She sighs, not lowering her stance once.
"Do not fret so...I have not lost myself to Dark mode in over many years, I don't plan to end that hiatus."
She smirks again.
"Though I must say, the thought of cutting through flesh does interest me. I want to stop being weak for once and try to protect those around me...I don't want to lose anyone again due to my lack of power. Celia lowers her eyes sadly.
'Never again...'
Celia then smirks at Nex.
"I actually have smiled during that situation...sadly..."
She smiles sadly as she fixes her stance once more.

Nex's ears twitched, thinking back to his lessons on social interaction...
"Yeah, I could see that. I remember just thinking 'Well that doesn't belong there!' before blacking out from blood loss. Let's just say it helps to know healers, and helps even more that my body is designed to amplify those heals. Nothing is indestructible, so it's a good attribute for a weapon to have."
Those lessons were useless.
"Healing is more useful than protecting. You can't always protect someone, and can never protect them from themselves... So don't regret it so much... And at least you can always lend a heal if your around, no?"

Celia chuckles darkly. She raises her hand, her fingers beginning to glow a light blue.
"My healing is how I survived...I've never had anyone to heal unfortunately after that incident...."
She shakes her head, her silver hair swaying with the action. She looks up at the lifeless sky, her red eyes empty.
"So...please...don't try to teach me in what can save people...I just do what I can."

Nex grinned a little.
"Alright, fair enough..."
He then laughed a little as well.
"And hey, with any luck you'll get the chance to heal me when this fight starts. I tend to get a little reckless when I know there's people to have my back... It sounds stupid, but it's a controlled chaos that throws off the enemy and increases speed."
He nodded, as if ensuring what he said was true, which it was.
"Honestly, I'm curious to see what you can do..."
Social awkwardness and all, one could tell Nex was just genuinely curious, and didn't mean anything else.
