Drake woke up yawning, he wasn't sure how long he had slept, he couldn't honestly remember the last time he had slept. It felt like he had just woken up from a coma though, hibernation. He felt completely recharged. Drake sat up looking around letting his brain register where he was for the time being, he remembered that he was on a boat. With ghost, and a guy possessed by an angel. Looking to his side he saw Maria there, she seemed like she was out of it. He decided to let her sleep and got out of the bed, he walked out the little guest room. Sareena: Awake finally? Drake looked over Sareena was sitting on the couch, she had taken her sling off "How's your arm?" he asked her, she moved it a few times. Sareena: Healed but still sore...won't be doing anything to crazy with it... "Well at least you're feeling better..." he said nodding to her, Drake walked out on the deck and looked around. The ocean looked nice, though the sea air was getting to him a bit. He looked over seeing land not too far from there. Drake wondered how long they had been sailing, he wasn't even sure if Rhode was the one sailing the ship or if his ghost friends were. He never bothered to ask. Voice: Knew you'd be here soon enough Drake turned around someone landed on the ship. It was Alastor he cracked his neck walking over to Drake "You knew I would come back" Drake said to him "I told you I would when I finished up with Mephisto" He added. Alastor smirked at him. Alastor: Yeah I know...glad you did though, just had to put out a fire involving one of the Samael's generals. If we're going to attack Baal, now would be the time "Fine, seems like you have a plan. Lets here it" Drake said to him. |

Rin twisted slicing through the air and intercepted a red bolt. It bounced off her sword and she was surprised when she realized it was an arrow that had deflected off her sword. Two more came in rapid succession and met the same fate as she turned to look at the source of the arrows. A dark armored figure drew the string back, and she saw it seemed to be made purely out of red energy. The bow itself looked sturdy and both sides held bladed edges. There was a shift in her stance, as she prepared to bear down on the opponent before her, and they seemed content to wait. Rin was the first to move, running at an angle forward. She was tracked by the archer and he let one fly. Her wrist flicked launching the arrow aside, and he pulled back again. She prepared to deflect it again but this one shot out faster than the other one with no indication that the draw had affected the speed at all. Her blade missed the redirection by a hair’s breadth. She felt pain arc up her right arm the opposite of her dominant arm, and it continued to spark demonic energy as she ripped it out and dropped the arrow to the ground. Blood spilled out with it but she didn’t have time to stop as another bolt came at her. She ducked low to ground and with a burst of speed closed the distance, her slash stopped short as the figure’s bow intercepted. Hard as metal it seemed, though light enough to carry? Rin twisted around trying to find a gap while sidestepping. She brought her sword across to slash but the sudden pain in her side sent her blade wide. Her second blow as easily parry, and reposited. The blow from her opponent’s bow slashed a line down her chest and he drew an arrow calmly back letting it fly near point blank into her other shoulder. She coughed for a moment surprised at the fluid movement of her opponent. She forced herself to stand, even with the blood slowly running down her arm and unto her sword. As the man pulled back for another shot she felt a bloom of energy within her, and without hesitation she slashed, a black red arc leaving a trail as it passed through the air and slammed the armored figure backwards into a tree. “You’ll regret that,” said Rin jumping forward. She deflected another arrow shot and pierced, the armored figure with her sword. It hissed at her grabbing her blade and trying to pull it out. “Oh no you don’t.” Rin pushed Muramasa in further into the figure to the hilt. The creature hissed and Rin jumped backwards dragging the creature’s weapon with it, and then landed about ten feet away. The ‘string’ powered to life red and she pulled back. An arrow of red formed from nowhere. “No… only demons can use that weapon… how did you..” started the demon gasping for breath. It had almost got her sword out of its chest when she let loose the arrow. It flew true and smacked straight through the gap in the T-shaped visor. The man began to glow red in a brilliant light and then exploded. Her blade came soaring at her from the explosion and she caught it with a free hand. Her shoulders ached, and chest was forcefully healing itself. Her blade she noticed was pulsating red, it had been fed by her blood and whenever that happened it usually went crazy. She was already starting to feel its presence slipping back pleased with the work she had done thus far. Bloody work. Gritting her teeth she pulled out the second arrow that had hit her, and more blood spilled before she was done. She moved to head back and regroup at the mansion’s front. It sounded like the battle was still going on but at least the initial break of demon had been dwindled down. She came out of the forest near john and Drake. “We need to regroup,” said Rin walking up to them. Her long black hair was starting to rise and fall with an imaginary wind, and iris was starting to glow dully red enhancing her already red eyes. Edited by Rin Kurai, Aug 25 2015, 03:36 PM.

Grunts burst through the forest in a group, charging the right side of the mansion. A small green ball landed at their feet giving them pause. It had a small cylinder at the top and the characters “M67” written on the side of it. “Hey, douches!” Rhode yelled. The grunts looked up at him and snarled. Rhode gave them a thumbs up and the grenade detonated, shredding the grunts with shrapnel and blasting them all back with the explosion. He grabbed his radio and keyed it. “Right side of the house is clear. Anybody need any help?” He pulled the empty drum out of the AA12, replaced it with a fresh one and dumped the empty into his carryall. He made his way back to the front of the house, examining the fight so far. Tren looked busy fighting one of the guys who’d come in through the portal with the others. Drake was fighting a freaky thing and got in trouble but Buck showed up to assist. He couldn’t hear what Buck said but he understood the body language well enough. He would stand while Drake got back to the mansion. Rin also popped up near Drake and John. The three of them could handle most anything. Rhode was sure of it. “Any end in sight?” Hard to say. My senses are dulled but I still feel plenty of demonic power here. Hard to tell which is your friends and which are the enemy. I can feel Uriel preparing something though. A shield to protect this place. We’ve used similar magic in the past to protect our outposts from demonic invasion. It’s effective, but a huge power sink. “So Uriel works the mojo and we get a safe zone?” essentially, but at a cost. Rhode keyed his radio. “Uriel is working on something to push the demons out. I’m falling back to the house to protect her and Tony while she does so. If you need my help, just say my name.” |

Sareena saw someone fall off the roof. Sareena: Oh no She ran outside and looked around seeing Maria laying there. She was burned on her right side and bloody everywhere else. Sareena ran over to her kneeling next to her, she started to look over her wounds. Sareena: Maria... ___ Blood, who's blood, Drake wondered as he looked around blood was in his eyes. His hand he couldn't feel his hand that stupid demon had beat him senseless, the demon cocked its head to the side again preparing to stab Drake on its sword until it was shoulder charged out the way. It went flying screaming something about that attack being a titan hax. Drake looked up at the guy who just saved him, he started trying to stand but he had lost way too much blood. "Maria" Drake said she wasn't responding. The demon came to a stop it looked at the soldier in front of it and jumped back going through a portal again. "Maria come in" Drake said his wounds slowly healing there still wasn't a response. Drake started to make his way to the house as per the advice of the 7 foot machine man. "Have to get to Maria" Drake said as he stumbled some before coming to a stop, the demon came out of a portal in front of Drake swinging its sword at him again. Drake growled and was stabbed in the gut. The demon twist the blade, but Drake didn't fall to the ground. The demon looked at Drake turning his head to the side as Drake grabbed its arm with his demon hand. "I won't forgive you..." Drake said pulling off the demon's arm and smacking him with it. The demon fell to the ground as Drake started to hit the demon repeatedly with its own arm until the thing was a bloodied mess on the ground. Drake's eyes glowing red he held out his demon hand and the demonic sword flew over to him Drake grabbed it and demonic wings appeared on his back. "Baal, are you in there...can you see through your lieutenant? He failed, I'm coming for you...your brother is coming for you" Drake said stabbing the sword into the head of the demon killing it. He turned to look at John, Rin and Rhode. "Mortal, Halfling, Arch Angel" Drake said to all three of them. ___ Uriel made it to the back of the house with Anthony, she pointed. Uriel: Over there stab your sword into the ground and concentrate on your angelic energy Anthony nodded and ran over to the area she pointed at. He pulled out his dagger it morphed into a sword and Anthony stabbed it into the ground. "What are we doing here" He asked her she looked over at him. Uriel: I said concentrate not question me...now concentrate. Anthony nodded "Right...right...concentrate" he said closing his eyes he started to glow blue as did Uriel. She had her eyes closed mumbling something in some unknown language. The blue glow started to cover the entire mansion. Uriel: This should be powerful enough to ward off most of the demons I do not want here... Edited by Drake, Aug 25 2015, 08:44 PM.

John was ready for an attack by the demon and started walked towards it. Of course, as he neared it, it jumped through a portal. John glanced at his motion sensor just as a red dot appeared near Drake. John spun around, taking aim with his pistol, but the damage was done with the Demon slashing at the man. In an instant, his previous weapon sets went away, and he yanked his assault rifle off his back, aiming down the digital sights. Drake was stabbed before he got a few shots off at the demon, perhaps stunning him enough for the enraged Drake to rip off the demons arm and beat him with it. The man's continued metamorphosis stunned him, and his reflexes took over, and he took at Drake. He picked up his words he said to the thing, but even though he killed the Demon, John didn't drop his aim. A human going through a demonic transformation like this was completely alien to him, and he didn't trust it, or Drake. He only dropped his weapon down to the low ready when it looked like Drake wouldn't attack. Spawn... A term used for demons and the like that he was use to. Right now, even if they were on the same side, Drake wasn't human to him, and the term just kinda flew out there. He turned his head slightly to the left when a quiet beeping noise went off in his helmet, and letters popped up on the side of his HUD. AI START UP INITIATED 3... 2... 1... AI ONLINE. SELF DIAGNOSTIC INITIATED SELF DIAGNOSTIC COMPLETE. NO FAULTS FOUND. PLEASE WAIT. Well, that was good, his partner AI was finally coming back online after being damaged in the blast bringing him to the past. Why did the bomb need to be facing backwards. He wondered what would have happened if it was facing forward, towards him, and he was blown to the future. He shrugged internally, and remembered Drake saying something about Maria. That must have been the sniper from before. Given that all the previous took a second to do and comprehend, he turned back to the house, seeing no one. Quickly, he ran around to the side, where Maria was, along with Sareena. He stopped next to them, kneeling down. He reached behind him, opening a compartment by his power pack, and taking out a cylinder. This is Biomedical Foam. It will help her out. Spread it around and in her wounds, and she will be on her feet in no time. And ill need that back when we get the chance.. He handed the small canister to the woman. He would save his second one for if they needed it, but he would need it back. He was just glad his suit made its own. He was about to go back out to the fight until a barrier was set up around the estate. He looked back to the two women, before nodding and going to ensure all the opposing demons on the inside of the barrier were dealt with, and he collected his DMR.

Rhode pointed to himself. “No, my name’s Rhode. and the angels name is Azethlor. My name isn’t ‘Arch Angel.” He said. He pointed to the sword in Drakes hand. “Can you put that thing down? You’re kinda freaking me out man.” That sword is pumping power into him the mortal body was never meant for. He is beyond tainted. Rhode rolled his eyes. As far as he was convinced, if you had unpaid parking tickets Azethlor considered you tainted. John bolted off at rocket speed back to the house but not before calling Drake “Spawn.” “Thats quite the compliment.” Rhode said. “Spawns a pretty cool superhero.” |

Tren slashed through the demon with an over handed slice and charged forward sending a wave out taking out three assaults. He heard a tsk tsk tsk behind him. Ziken: Your wasting too much energy, demons are aggressive let them come back to you and react. You waste minimal energy that way. "I don't need your help," said Tren twisting his blade and beheading the next demon. A goatman slammed two fists onto the ground and then came forward. Tren growled bringing his blade up and slamming it down into the goatman's head fighting his strenght for a second before it split the demon in two forcing two halfs to split to either side of Tren. Ziken: Don't fight their strenght, allow it to do the work for you. Excalibur should cut through most demons with no problem. "I said SHUT IT," yelled Tren as three demons jumped him. In a twirling spin he sent the bodies flying backwards each one dismembered in a different way. Ziken: Flashy, but unnecessary. This isn't a some dance before judges, and I can tell your study is incomplete. Tren turned on Ziken getting ready to slash at him if he kept talking but he was interupted by the presence of a shield going up. As it passed Tren he felt calm, and Ziken stood watching it surround the mansion. Ziken: Guess she finally decided it was enough that you had managed to hold this well. Work on those things will you Pendragon? Tren gripped his sword and then let it relax. The man wanted to get stronger, well fine he'd think about the advise he had been given and try to apply it in future battles. See if it suited his style, but he would be damned if he'd ever consider Ziken a master. He headed to the others, seeing almost everyone gathered in once spot. "Ho there, is it over already?" asked Tren looking at Yang who walked up without his tails out. He wondered how the boy was doing but there wasn't much time for that now, he appeared to be in control for the time being and that is what mattered. "It appears so," said Rin looking at the source of the shield. Uriel and Anthony seemed to have been doing most of the work. She could only guess at what they had done, it was like her wards but done on a much grander scale. She looked to Rhode. "I think this is what your ship needs." She pointed up to the sky before turning to head off to talk to Uriel and Anthony. Tren sheathed Excalibur for the time being. "Well I'm not sure what Alastor is going to say about all this but I'm sure it's safe to say he already knows," said Tren. |

Sareena looked at John when he handed her the foam. She turned back to Maria then to him. Sareena: Err...thanks? She said as she started to put the foam on Maria, hopefully this with her natural healing factor or rather unnatural healing factor would get her back on her feet. What the hell happened out there, something told her she should have gone out to help. Nope instead she watched after Anthony who by the way was gone now. Where the hell did he go? ___ Uriel looked at Anthony "Barriers up" he said to her breathing hard, she nodded at him but up front the bright red light could be seen. Uriel backed up. Uriel: We're not done yet...I need you to hold him off for a second Anthony. Then I can work. Anthony turned to her his ribs still hurt like hell but "Yeah, I got ya...lets get to work" he said as they spread both their wings and took off over the house. ___ Drake looked at the one who took off into the house. "Like a frightened child" he said walking towards Rhode "Then its just you and me arch angel...Azethlor" he said walking to him "Drake!" Anthony yelled coming from over the building. He slammed into Drake forcing him back. Drake growled "Another angel!" He yelled punching Anthony out the way and right into the ground. Uriel: Heavenly divine light bind this evil! Drake looked up and got hit with several spears of light pinning him into the ground. "Damn you Uriel! Let me up!"Drake yelled his voice not his own. "I'll kill all of you Angels! You hear me! You won't lock me away again!" he yelled growling. Uriel fell to her knees breathing hard. Uriel: Anthony get the sword away from him, that won't hold for long! Anthony ran over to Drake and kicked the sword from him. Drake still growling at them. "Free me! Free me!" he screamed Anthony backed away looking at Drake his eyes still glowing red "How long will this last?" He asked Uriel, she walked over to him Drake growling at them both. Uriel: I don't know it depends on how much power he used...Azethlor...what do you think? |

John scooped up his DMR, placing it on his back next to his assault rifle. There were no more demons around to kill, he was just doing a double round to ensure all was well. It didn't look like that for Drake, however, who was freaking out for some reason. He debated on going over there, but with half the house there, it was well taken care of. Let the metahumans deal with each other. Uriel stabbed him with some light... something or other, pinning him to the ground, and they took the sword away from him. Being there would just cause problems and a flustercuck. Instead, he went back to where Maria and Sareena were. We should get her inside. Your buddy Drake is loosing it for one reason or another, and it would probably be safer. Uriel, Anthony, and a few others are with him to try to calm him. He took back his biofoam cylinder from Sareena, and if she gave the ok, would pick up Maria and bring her into... wherever he was led. Either a couch or a bed. |

Rin stopped near Uriel and Anthony watching their bout with Drake as he was pinned to the ground. He was having trouble with his sword making him do things he normally wouldn't, she had some experience with that and she sympathized. It was hard to deal with. "Drake this isn't you. You choose who you are, not who you were born from," said Rin getting close enough for him to hear. Her sword wasn't pulled out but Drake didn't have a weapon either. "It's only your friends here." Tren finally caught up, with Rin after leaving john and Sareena letting them know he'd be back he was going to check on Drake and the others. Something was happening with them. "Remember Drake, you said it was you who choose your family. Demons, Humans, and angels among them," said Tren trying to augment Rin's attempts to get through to him. "You've got this evil inside you, and I know it as well as you carrying what I thought was my destiny for a long time. Let go Drake," said Rin calmly trying to reassure him. "Everything is ok now." Ziken picked up the sword nodding to Uriel and backing up from Drake. The scars on his chest pulsated red for a moment and then faded to normal. Tren noticed it was the one time he had ever seen Ziken grow uncomfortable. He frowned, that sword meant bad news. Ziken: If its the same to you Uriel I'll keep this sword until it is time to pass it to Drake. I don't intend on using this weapon, I've already pissed off god enough as is. |

He touched the sword for only a few moments, but he is particularly receptive. With the Guild enhancements and the arm already in place, the sword found an excellent place to take root. He burned through a lot of energy regenerating the physical flesh though. “Let him up so he can face me.” Rhode said drawing Starshatter and pointing it at Drake. “Buddy, i’m afraid i’m going to have to ask you to leave my friend or i’mma blast you.” Good job Marion. That’ll calm the situation down. The sarcasm was positively dripping from Azethlor’s words. Rhode rocked the hammer back. “I mean it Ass Butt. You back up outta him or i’m going to send both of you straight down to the same place. At least there he’ll have a chance to fight you himself on equal footing. So what’ll it be, you going to fight little old mortal me or are you gunna run away?” |
