Rin looked down at the base before them. It was similar and yet much different than the previous outpost they had come across. There was another Pyramid structure at the center of this places, but trenches, vehicles, demons, where camped out all around the main structure with other buildings surrounding the main structure. There even looked to have an arena of some sort where some sort of gathering was taking place to watch people fight on the inside. They had managed to come up on a ridge over looking the base in the distance. Ziken: Here's hoping there's someone strong down there. The now human looking demon scratched his black beard looking down as if unamused. Yahiko was glaring down at the demons below as if they were all beneath him, and that left Yang who started like he normally did as if there was no realization behind his eyes. Just where was Adrian anyways? They had lost him not to long ago in his driving truck though Rin couldn't remember the exact moment she had just looked back and he hadn't been anywhere in sight. "Looks like they are preparing a force to go, up north. You can see them gathering supplies to the north side. My recon shows that most of them are at a sort of arena watching fights before they head off," said Rin to the others. "We could send some to mess up the supplies, others to get into that building. There having some sort of meeting for Ba'al's higher ups." Ziken: Sounds like there might have been promotions after my killing of Dracolos, and some of their other ranking officers. Ziken grinned a bit at that. Rin turned to Anthony to see what he thought. "Still thinking it's a good idea to attack? The more damage we do here the less they can do up north right?" |

"Whoa Paws...whoa" Anthony said bringing his cat to a stop next to everyone else. He looked down at the demon base, there were several goatmen and some grunts out there, but that was probably only the tip of the ice berg. "Yeah" Anthony said to Rin's comment "They are looking like they are ready for war...but with who?" he said, he was thinking for a moment. "They have to know that Mephisto is done up north, they were the ones that sent Drake up there right?" He questioned. Anthony climbed off of Paws and patted his side the cat started to purr slightly. "They should know they won't need such a large force just to take the north, its almost as if they aren't about to move north, but are preparing to defend the dark zone..." he sighed heavily realizing they may have made a mistake rushing down here. Baal's army was on full alert, not getting ready to move, this base looked hunkered down like they were expecting an attack. "Think they are at war with some third party we didn't take into consideration" Anthony asked Ziken since he would most likely understand the demon politics at play here. He turned to Rin when she said should they take the base "We could, it would weaken Baal, but who the hell would we be helping if we did" he said, he didn't want to admit it but it felt like that Angel that Uriel memories spoke of. "Samael" Anthony said to himself. |

Ziken gave a hearty laugh as if Anthony had made a jest of some sort to him before he turned to the boy. Ziken: There's always a third party when it comes to demons. Killing one house strengthens another, as I said I am here to gather power for myself. In defeating Ba'al I become stronger, and so do the other demon lords vying for power here in the mortal realm. One step forward is one step back it always has been since the dawn of time. God is fickle, trust me on this one. Ziken looked scanning down below at the demons making ready. Ziken: My guess is they are definitely preparing for something, though Mephisto may be gone, I doubt he will be gone forever. We have six other Primes in the mortal realm he could be preparing for war with, and each of them have generally staked a claim in a different part of the world. You could be right that it is Samael that he's preparing for, your link with that Arch Angel might be onto something. "If this Samael is going to attack perhaps it would be a good thing to let both forces kill each other?" asked Rin considering the implications of them attacking one of Ba'als strongest bases. "At the very least it might attract Samael to attack this weakened area and perhaps we would get answers then from Samael's agents." Ziken: I don't know who Samael would send, his horsemen or one of his servants to war but someone would indeed come. |

Anthony looked at Ziken as he explained how the demon houses were always vying for control. Constantly fighting one another to be the strongest, but this was something else. Samael wasn't a demon at least that is what his link was telling him. He was something worse. "What is Samael...he's not a demon" he said to Ziken "Uriel isn't afraid of demons, this guy though had her petrified as if she could barely breath around him...whatever he is, this is more than just a demon house trying o destroy another one" he said standing up and going back to Paws, he grabbed a canteen and started to drink water from it. He wasn't sure what the next move should be, weakening Baal would work in their favor if they were going to attack, but would it be a good idea to help out this...Samael. Attacking Baal would only help him, would they be trading in a Prime for something much much worse. He rubbed his head slightly. He turned to Rin "The question is do we want Samael's attention though? If he is worse than Baal it maybe best to try and fly under his radar..." Anthony told them, he heard the truck pulling up he looked over seeing Adrian get out. Adrian: Good news guys, I was able to get our communications working. We should be able to bounce a signal off one of the AGUG satellites to call the others. Anthony nodded and walked over to Adrian getting the phone from him. He started to dial the number "Lets just hope that none of them lost their phones" Anthony said to Adrian. "Come on pick up Maria..." he sighed some until it answered "Maria, this is Anthony...where are you guys? What you mean you don't know...okay I'll wait for you to find Drake" He said sighing. |

Ziken: Samael? He's a fallen angel I'd say, and there's always been wars between Angels and Demons since I can remember. I was born sometime after the first angels had already fallen. Ziken waited until Anthony was off the phone before continuing. Ziken: Your choice, but if Samael is involved he probably already knows much of what is going on. "When where you born?" asked Rin curiously, and Ziken looked over to her for a moment thinking over his answer. Ziken: Old enough to have changed my name numerous times throughout history. I've met both numerous devils, and angels before they even were written about in books and texts. Yahiko: That old and you aren't some big shot of your own huh? Ziken's eyes narrowed on Yahiko, and he started at him for a moment. Ziken: Powerful enough to kill you... boy. Yahiko: I'd like to see you try. It looked like they were both about to go at it but Rin quickly changed the subject. "So Anthony where are we meeting up with the others?" asked Rin hopping to defuse the situation a few notches. Ziken looked to Anthony as if he was the decision maker Ziken was going by currently. |

Anthony hung up the phone walking back over to the group just in time for Ziken and Yahiko to go at it. He looked at Rin "I dunno, Drake said they would call when they got there" he said shrugging. Adrian: Okay then, new plan... Anthony looked over at Adrian his eyes widened as Adrian walked over to them holding one of the demon cannons. He smirked aiming it at the base. "The hell you doing Adrian?" Anthony asked, Adrian turned around with his pennywise mask on. "Oh great" Anthony said face palming. Adrian: I'm making a decision since you're being indecisive! He said firing the cannon the kick back knocking him on his ass. The fireball slammed into a building down below blowing it up. Suddenly alarms started to sound across the entire base. "The shit Adrian!?" Anthony yelled he pulled out his sword and his wings formed. "Guess we're attacking them...I'll go by air" he said taking off into the air and flying down to the base the demons started to fire their weapons at Anthony distracted by the flying human and not paying attention to anyone else. |

Yahiko was already heading down the ridge charging before the blast went off, and he met the demons first carving his bloody way through the front lines before they had even gotten defenses up. Ziken: I'll flank from the right. Ziken was off, and Rin nodded to Anthony as he said he would provide aerial support. Rin then looked to Adrian. "Give us some covering fire but don't get knocked on your ass this time!" yelled Rin as she shot off driving her own hellcat forward. Yang looked at Adrian offering a hand to pick him up and helped him aim with his tails wrapping around the cannon to hold it steady. "Fire when ready," said Yang. Rin followed into the gap after her brother, knowing their styles would compliment each other, and she jumped form her Hell cat as it hoped on a group shredding them to pieces. She landed in a spin slashing through demons and spraying blood. She then cut her way up to a group of assaults who shot ice at her. She slashed at each shard blasting them to nothing but mist with each swipe, and Yahiko beheaded one with a stroke and then another with the back slash. Ziken grabbed the sword in his hand tightly and as he approached he jumped from his hellcat and then suddenly with a burst of speed faster than even the cat's charge came forward blade pointed out and back behind himself. The blade held high and drawn shown like a bright star. Ziken: Your blade is still as brilliant as the day I killed you brother.... lets see if its power is still there. Ziken cut the first demon and they exploded in light sending out shockwaves of energy. It burned into Ziken as he did but he swung into the next and another explosion of light, and then another. Soon the explosions were piling up from Ziken's end of the army and demons were starting to flee from him but they could not run fast enough. Ziken's onslaught was impressive for anyone watching. Yahiko had just finished off another group as Rin jumped forward to intercept a cannon shot aimed straight at him. Rin took it head on blasting backwards sliding along the ground far away, Yahiko without looking sped towards the demon who had shot her and sliced first through the cannon and then through the demon. Only he would kill her but now was not the time, her weakness he now knew is she would protect her friends. Something he could use against her later. He kept his pressure going not going to look for his sister she would be fine. Rin stood up dazed, she had lost her blade somewhere.... and demons were surging everywhere she couldn't locate it in the mess and was weaponless. She blasted a three demons with some of her wards but it wouldn't be long before she ran out. Slamming a open palm into a goatman he froze solid from her last ward, and a follow up punch shattered him. "Where is it....?" |

Adrian looked at Rin when she told him not to fall Adrian: Sorry the thing had more kick back than I expected He said this shaking his head and aiming again this time having Yang to back him up. He fired it slammed into several demons blowing them up. One of the goatmen pointed at Anthony who was still in the air. Goatman: Shoot that Angel down! Grunt: Sir we got more incoming! Anthony was dodging the blast from the demons. "Shit" he said swooping down and slashing a few in half. He took back into the air but was shot in the back this caused him to slam into the ground, he rolled a few times before flapping his wings making him regain his balance. He swung his sword cutting a few grunts in half as he flew backwards. He saw that Rin had lost her sword and was looking like she was getting overwhelmed. Flying towards her he swung his sword cutting into one of the demons that was around her. "Looked like you could use some help" he said to her, cutting into another demon. Anthony flipped his sword around stabbing it into the ground creating a barrier around the two of them. "This should keep the demons at bay until you can find your sword" he pulled out his gun and spun it on his finger. He handed it to Rin "Told you I'd teach you how to shoot remember? Trigger, hammer, barrel, point this part at the demons pull the hammer down squeeze the trigger" he said to her "You got 8 shots make them count till you find your sword" he flew out of the barrier and punched a demon. |

John had been scouting out the base for some two days now, getting the hang of the movement of the demons here, and how they reacted to little things. He found that they though they were pretty well dug in, and didn't care for safety precautions. He found it quite easy to infiltrate the place on multiple occasions, allowing him to take bits of explosives to rig up for when he chose to make a solo assault, or extra ammo. He was glad his weapons could be converted to shoot this ancient rounds if he ever ran out of his own. It was day three now, and he just saw the biggest change: there was a giant fireball erupting at one of the buildings. Yea... that wasn't good at all. He replaced his DMR with his assault rifle, making sure he was still cloaked before going in to see just what has happened. Turns out, a handful of people decided to assault this place. Well, there went two days of planing to take everything down quickly. He was surprised to see an angel in with these people, him almost getting shot out of the sky. No... he was shot, taking a round to the back and tumbling down. Without dropping his camo, he began to fire at the demons, keeping them off the angel, and whoever he was helping out: some woman. His camo would flicker with every round he fired, showing glimpses of the giant armored man offing the demons with extreme precision and prejudice. These demons fell easier than what he was use to, so one round was enough to put down most of them. Some grunt saw his shimmering camo as he fired, and decided to walk right up and hit him in the back. John barely felt anything, and his camo dropped, showing all dark armor and red t-visor. The grunt backed up a step before the supersoldier grabbed the demon by the throat, crushing it easily, and throwing a good 50 feet away. He simply continued firing, letting his shield take any rounds that flew his way and were lucky enough to hit him. |

Rin nodded to Anthony accepting the gun running forward she dodged the first goatman she ran into swinging a sword akin to a zweihander. She ducked under the blow sliding inside his reach and pointed the gun to its head shooting. As it fell she used his body a ramp to jump high and see if she could see her blade around. She spotted it in the distance. A demon slashed at where she would land and she dropped into a roll pointing the gun off to the side catching it in another head shot. It almost felt like using an extendable blade, point and kill. Her next three shots hit a demon as she rushed towards it. It fell just in time for her to see a demon reaching out for Muramasa as it was glowing red. She shot the hand of the demon as it flinched back, then one at the knee of the demon and finally ended with a pull of the trigger to the face. The demon fell over as she was out of ammo. Grabbing her blade she waved to Anthony across the field that she had gotten her blade back. Yahiko found himself surrounded on all sides now. His eyes glowed red, and his blade was starting to pour red energy off it. It was starting to feed on the kills he kept wracking up, driving him further to recklessness. He charged forward slashing up four demons. He looked down as he felt a pain in his side. A sword snapped into his side. Grunting he pulled it out throwing it like a knife straight into a demon in the distance and then he turned around looking at the pile of demons he had left behind him and smiled wickedly. "I fear that if I was down there I'd become an enemy in short order...." said Yang as he licked his lips looking at the bloody mayhem happening down below. A woman stood not far off from hip shielding her eyes seemingly from the sun in the distance. Yin: You know there might be enough food down there to sustain us for a long while if you just went down there. Demon flesh isn't as good as human's but in that ammount it wouldn't matter. Yang's eyes flickered over to the spot where he saw his hallucination and tried to ignore her, just like he was ignoring the happenings down below. He focused on holding the cannon steady. "Fire again Adrian," said Yang focusing hard on his task. Ziken found himself now towards the others having driven the right side further and further into their own lines. He had spotted someone going in and out of focus, and they were killing demons. He positioned himself nearby, as his blade sunk into an assault that sprayed fire out at him. He was completely unharmed by the attempt as the creature exploded in a brilliant flash of light. Ziken: Name yourself friend or foe specter. I've no time for anomalies in this fight. Ziken twisted the straight sword and stabbed behind him hissing as the explosion back. Just holding the sword brought him pain, but it was a pain he could withstand. |
