ZetsumeiRyu: Morphman, do not be a fool... Join us, or I'll kill you.... *he glares at Morphman*

Broly: I'll ask again, where is the man called Jaden?! I have to find him... *he looks at Maya* You seem the be the ringleader here... Tell me what I wish to know... Now!

Kalmar quickly formed his swords again, blocking a few of the Light Beams but unfortunately getting struck by one on his upper right chest.

He grunted and rolled out of the way of another Light Beam, and saw his prey retrieve his sword and charge at him. He shook his head, moving into a defensive battle stance, eyeing RD.

----Italy----

Daemonus stood atop the Vatican, watching his demon horde sweep through the holy city. He waited impassively, hoping that one of his subordinates would soon report that they had found the vault.

No matter, he thought absently, in the end, I will find this artifact and destroy this city.

Suddenly the shadow behind him distorted, growing into a large shadow demon. "Sir," it grumbled in a low voice, "there is something you must see."

Daemonus' deep voice chilled the creature to the core, "Show me."

R.D. stopped short of his dash and swung hard, shouting "Kougenjin!" and firing off an act blade of energy. As the blade beam shot out at Kalmar, he quickly followed and slashed hard at the demon hunter.

===The Vatican===

The guardian monks could hear the explosions and sounds of battle above them from their lair underneath the holy city. They seemed to know why the city was being assaulted, and they were preparing for it. They just didn't know who led the assault... a fact that would cost them dearly.

In the street, one of the monk warriors leapt atop the building that Daemonus stood upon, and readied a bladed staff. "Halt!" he shouted imperiously to the two creatures, "You shall go no farther!"

Morph chuckled. "I don't think I'd mind much for joining you, but why should I join someone of whom I know nothing but that she's a little girl? I prefer to know more of you and your motives first. After all, had Caesar known he'd be killed on the Idus of March by the senators of Rome, would he have let the senate exist any longer? Would he have any longer allied himself with them? Ochi." He replied in Greek, "No." He looked up at Maya, and then at ZetsumeiRyu. "Besides, if your right-hand-man is this little schmuck of a monkey's breed, then I would instantly get a major inferiority complex should I choose to become your left-hand-man."

"Bleh." Morph uttered. "Then I am to be equal to someone like my former friends. Real nice." He said sarcastically. "Anyway, I guess I'll ask you some questions then. One: What do you plan to do with humanity, and any other creatures not under your command? Two: Do you have any relationship to Kuro, and if yes, what kind of relationship? And three: do you play chess?"

Kalmar let the arc of energy pass over him, causing him minimal damage. He swung his left blade to block his prey's attack, then knelt down slightly to swung up hard with his right sword.

----Italy----

Daemonus looked at the monk that had interrupted him.

"Pathetic human," his voice shook the building they were on slightly. He grabbed the sword his from his side, advancing slowly towards the monk. Squeezing on the upper part of the hilt, the floating oval suddenly formed a long, red pointed blade.

(OOC:I know what your thinking,he's already posted that, well I edited it a little bit and I wanted to make sure everybody sees it for future refrence)
~Asia~
Seeing that Trigger,Sammule,the Elitro,the woman and her army were fighting, Mokitio joined them. He then spoke in the same tonge when he summoned the 2 ninjas but this time he summoned a blue dragon the size of a large hill. It looked like a normal dragon but everyone knew it was the spirit of one. Mokito then jumped on the dragon's back, it then flew up with a roar and made arch in the air and headed back down for 7 demons on the ground. When the Demons were in range, Mokito shot some type of energy beam at them thus killing the demons, "Seven down, Millons to go!" Mokito said sarcasticly, After Mokito killed the demons,the dragon then swooped down over two fire demons. Seeing that brething fire won't do much good agianst a fire demon,picked up the demons with it's claws and flew up tell at the highth of a ten story building and let go of the demons thus letting them fall tell death, "So,what do you think of my dragon,Lita" Mokito asked Sammule and Trigger, "I Don't recall ever seeing a rule dragon before,nice." Sammule remarked

R.D. disengaged and threw himself away from Kalmar, but he was slow. The demonic sword left a deep gash in his arm, and he cried out as he felt it burn. Nevertheless, he threw himself at Kalmar again, slashing again and again rapidly in an attempt to injure his opponent.


===The Vatican===

The monk spun his weapon expertly in his hands, then dashed forward at Daemonus swinging. He completely ignored the mist screen of Donovan's, focusing intently on Daemonus.

Kalmar laughed before parrying RD's attacks with both swords almost effortlessly. He leapt upwards, kicking at RD's head as he vaulted over his opponent. As he landed, he sprang forward in an attempt to body slam his prey.

----Italy----

Daemonus quickly lunged forward, slashing through the monk's staff and disemboweling him. He suddenly noticed a mist like screen in front of him.

"Who are you?" he asked the figure questioning him, "And the land I stand on is ruined. Why claim it for your own?"

Kalmar's kick landed solidly on the side of R.D.'s head, causing him to stagger backwards, only for him to get slammed forward from Kalmar's ram.

He rolled across the ground and righted himself, looking back up at his enemy before charging forward again while firing a pair of plasma bursts. He couldn't believe it.

He's toying with me, R.D. thought despairingly as he lunged at the demon hunter.

*ZetsumeiRyu decides to talk a long walk outside*

ZetsumeiRyu: Hmmm, what I did... To gain more power, was it the right thing to do... To betray my old friends as I did... Was it right? These memories... The flashbacks... I can't help but think this was the wrong decision... Maybe Juno and the others could have helped me... What do I do... Hmmmmm....

*ZetsumeiRyu looks out at the sunset*

ZetsumeiRyu: What do I do....

"Yeah..." Morph said. "Ummm... how do I put this? NO." He firmly said.

(OOC: Maybe, maybe not. After all, a soul can't be destroyed... it's like a glass ball. You can break it, but it leaves shards that can be put back together again, though they're fragile... dunno how it'd work when a soul is taken.

Also, Juno, with Donovan, there is only one 'man' there. One is Daemonus, another is a shadow demon, the third is a corpse bleeding all over the rooftop.)

ZetsumeiRyu: I can feel my soul still... I must make the right choice.... It is time... Soul of DragonFire hear me!!! Come to me now!! Escape from your prison that is Maya!!! *he looks back at the castle* It's high time I make my own decisions, and I have decided... Maya is going down.... I shall wait right here for my soul to return to me... Hopefully it's alright in there...

*inside Maya*

DragonFire's Soul: Man it's nasty in here... But I have to get free, return to my body, and finally be rid of Maya... *he wanders around* I just hope nothing attacks me in here....

*the soul of DragonFire looked at her*

DragonFire: Huh? Wait, are you...? What's going on? He who? I am so confused... Can you tell me what's going on here? I'd like to get out and return to my body.... And I'll help you too if you wish *smiles*

Morph's shoulders raised in a shrug. A smile appeared on his face and his eyebrows raised. A pose normally one would assume that the person would show he or she didn't know of something after a small accident had happened. "I don't think I will be joining you, little miss." He said in the fashion of Andrew, the Bicentennial Man. He pointed at her. "And one of those reasons is that I wish to see this girl you inhabit free. Somehow, I feel attached to her."

Dark...dark...dark. That is what plauged his...her's...or its mind. It couldn't remember who it was anymore. All it could remember was...nameless faces. An evil man who lusted for darkness...a family and two guardians who wanted nothing more but to see one person safe again...then...somthing that sent a tingle up the spine of the being.

A boy...was it? It felt some wierd sensation from the the boy...his blood red hair...his blood red jacket and dark blue shirt...and jean's faded in color. The being felt so intune with the body as if they were one. Who was this boy, who laid lifeless in a vessel of darkness? Was he something important...? Good...? Evil...? Both...?

Darkness took the boy away again. The being felt the need to see him again, but it was binded...paralized. Its will told him to break free from the binds around it. It struggled...or wanted to. It could not feel its body move...could it even feel. Nothing more than the lust for the boy...the lust to see him again..to know of him.

A cry, a whimper, a wail, a scream, a whisper, a song. All at the same time came to the being's attention. The darkness showed nothing however...nothing but the evil shade that loomed before the being.

It felt like the darkness was now closing in on it. The darkness wanting to take it and never let go. It felt the air being sucked from its lungs, the blood from it's heart, the knowlegde from its head. It wanted to cry out, in pain and in loss. Yet no sound was given. Finally, the darkness had won, taking what seemed its soul. The eyes of the being closed after hearing and understanding one whisper from the darkness.

"The fire of passion, will, and power burns bright...may it never go out." It seemed almost soothing, but devious at the same time. The being lost all sense of time and feeling, losing what seemed it's own body.

The soothing sound of water and fish filled the air. The being woke up by the disturbance, its brown eyes looking into the bright blue sky. It felt heavly wet, soaked even, but remained floating.

It turned its head to the left to see water, the right, water. It was lost at sea one could say. It then began to sink suddenly. Panicing, it flailed it's arms about and found it's balance in the water, treding now.

It didn't feel cold however, only wet. It didn't like it, so it began to swim briskly to a nearby island behind it. Only about three trees and sand were on it. The being finally was able to put it's feet on dry land again. It coughed as sea water had gotten into its throat.

"W-where am I?" It spoke to itself, asking the open air. Its body quickly heated up on its own drying its skin and clothes. It looked about itself, the same clothes as the boy.

After the look, flashes of fighting, darkness, light. All came at once. The being held its head in pain, barely able to take the pain. It fell to its knees groaning then yelling in pain. After a moment, the pain subsided as the last of the memories came.

It took a moment to recooperate and stood again. It looked over to the water again finding a reflection. There he was, the boy. The being was the boy, everything was clear once more. He..was Blazen..back again.

"I-I'm alive?" Blazen asked himself. "I thought I had.." He trailed off, unable to remember now. Only darkness filled that memory. He fought to get through the darkness, but to no avail. "So...what have I missed?" He asked the open air, and moving a strand of blood red hair from his vision.

Kalmar laughed as his demonic right hand lit on fire, the flames dancing yet not burning the demon hunter. He threw his hand up, slapping the two plasma bursts away before lunging forward and grabbing RD. Kalmar threw the youth across the port, the boy blasting through a small store. Kalmar dashed forward grabbing the boy before he could recover as he spun and threw him again, causing RD to fly through a brick wall and skip across the ground.

Kalmar laughed darkly again before calmly walking forward towards RD, bloodlust raging in the Demon Hunter's eyes.

"You are but a small sacrifice to pay for my redemption," he said darkly before roughly grabbing the boy with his left hand, and began pounding the teen with his right fist. After a flurry of strikes he shook his hand, and drew back to deliver the final blow.

Edited by Fallen on December 3, 2006 at 14:31:50.

The last blow sent R.D. flying down the street from the force of it. He groaned and pulled himself up into a kneeling position. His clothes were slightly torn, and he was bleeding and bruised. He couldn't seem to lift head as he heard Kalmar slowly approaching.

I can't let this go on, he thought despairingly.

Edited by RisingDragon on December 3, 2006 at 14:42:04.

Kalmar walked forward towards his weakened prey, chuckling darkly as he watched the boy struggle. He stopped next to RD, looking down on him with bloodlust.

"You have failed to entertain me boy, now it is time for you to die."

He raised his blazing demonic fist and looked at RD before smiling and sending his fist careening straight for RD's head.

----Italy----

Daemonus listened to the figure on his mist-like screen and felt a small force of demons appear around himself and his subordinate.

"Child's play," he spoke to the screen as he raised his right hand and absorbed all 200 shadow beings, "Then have your continent, I am only here to seek an item for my master."

With that he looked at his subordinate, "Show me." The creature took off with his commander following closely behind.

Edited by Fallen on December 3, 2006 at 14:52:08.

A thunderclap sounded as R.D.'s hand suddenly shot up and caught the fist. It blazed with azure light, almost as if the gloved hand was covered in dancing blue flame. Energy rose off of him like vapor trails. Kalmar's attack was stopped cold as the Second Cipher unlocked.

Light broke once more into R.D.'s mind as he looked up with a furious glare at the surprised Kalmar. The irises and pupils of his eyes seemed to have disappeared. R.D. roared as a aura of power blasted up around him, and lightning danced through the air, shattering windows and destroying electronic devices. With an enraged cry, R.D. jammed his glowing hand forward, bending Kalmar's hand at the wrist painfully.

===At the Vatican===

Deep within the sacred vault, the warrior monks prepared for what was to come. They could not allow anyone to retrieve the object in which they protected. As not only did they protect the weapon from others, they protected the world from the weapon. They could not allow the new evils plaguing the world to acquire it.

Above ground, more warrior monks threw themselves at Daemonus and his minion.

Edited by RisingDragon on December 3, 2006 at 14:57:33.

Kalmar's eyes shot wide open as his prey began to glow, stopping his attack easily. He tried to take a step back, sensing a sudden surge of power flow through the teen.

Something's wrong, he screamed in his mind moments before his hand was bent awkwardly, sending tendrils of pain shooting through his entire arm. He cried out as his left knee gave out, causing him to half fall to the ground.

"Your new powers will not stop my redemption, you are unimportant," he screamed as he looked up at RD, moving his leg to stand up and face his prey again.

----Italy----

Daemonus strode through the streets quickly, using his powers to kill the various monks that crossed his path. He swung his blade around, cutting a monk in half before catching the man's upper torso and head. He drew the monks face to within inches of his own, "You are a fool, and so are your brethren."

His cold voice boomed at the monk before Daemonus threw the halved body at the man's comrades and continued to walk towards his goal.

Edited by Fallen on December 3, 2006 at 15:08:05.

The ground practically exploded beneath R.D. as he launched himself forward, using the new Godhand attack and punching at Kalmar viciously.

===At the Vatican===

At the vault, the monks knew that their attacker had arrived. Screams coming from the church overhead rent the air. The monks prepared themselves for the inevitable.

"What the hell's going on now?!" Hugo demanded, as R.D. quickly turned the tide with a glowing hand.

Matt chambered his fists. "I don't know, but I think it's high time I got through this stupid, God damn barrier!"

His fists began to glow as well. "ORAAAAAAAAAAAAA~!"

Renewed by this turn of events, Matt unleashed a searing, high-speed volley of punches on the barrier, mimicking the attack his Stand Star Platinum had used earlier. He even carried the same battle cry of "ORA!" over and over through the air.
