"Hahaha, pain won't work on me. I can selectively give control back to my target of areas, so you see right now I've given all pain reception back to the host!" the possessed Emiko replied as she attempted to wrest herself out of Jen's hold - despite doing so would most likely tear a ligament or even dislocate a joint. And if what the girl said was any indication, whatever pain that was felt would all be felt by Emiko herself! "If you don't let go I will break her arm." It was clear that being unable to feel her host body's pain had removed any sense of self-preservation from Kuroki as long as she's possessing someone.

"I won't let you." A familiar voice called out as a darkened hallway suddenly grew bright, and Jen knew just who it was. "I won't let anyone hurt my friends, no matter what I have to do..."

"Star!" Jen exclaimed before shoving the possessed Emiko aside, while jumping back at the same time as the photomancer unleashed a ribbon of light towards the possessed girl, noticing that instead of a smooth and steady beam it was more intense than usual, pulsing erratically. And there her friend stood, with one end of the ribbon of light in her hand and another hand holding the pendant... which Jen knew was a restraining device - a power limiter if one could so put it that held the brunt of her power, lowering it to a manageable level where her hard-to-control elemental side isn't able to cause damage to the side of Star that is human.

"But just how did you..." Jen gasped in astonishment at the sight of golden eyes as Star lifted her head. It quickly became clear that there was a part of Star that is speaking that isn't Star. Was she able to tap into her aeon powers and still maintain control? Just how did she manage that? That was what Jen could only wonder... "That is like, totally hardcore, amico!" Jen cheered as she pumped a fist triumphantly.

"Traitor!" A voice would suddenly scream, and Jen whirled around to catch sight of the Grim Reaper flying towards Star, scythe poised. "How can you attack your teammate?! Let her go!" And before Jen could react, the cloaked angel of death had struck her friend with his scythe! Shocking, and in her shock Jen failed to notice that the scythe drew no blood.

"Star!" Jen yelled. "Emi-chan's possessed, verdammt it! And you killed Star for restraining her!? Give me back my friend, demon! Or I'll see you in hell for it, I swear!" Jen screamed as she ran forward with her M4A1 in hand, before whirling around to deliver a strike to the reaper's head with the butt of her weapon.

Its bedtime! Bed=Ethnic Time=Cleansing
Crow watched as Jameson delivered the final blow, the machine falling over. The pyromancer jumped down from Amourette, landing with a soft thud, the man began to walk towards Jameson, but before he could get any closer, the sound of the machine stirring caught his ear, he turned around in time to see Amourette knocked away.

"Amourette!!!" He yelled as he turned to chase after the dragon, but before he could even move, the machine struck at Jameson, knocking him away. Crow froze in place as he looked at Jameson's body. As he stared at the man who saved him countless times. Something snapped.

"You people killed Edmund..." Flames began to circle his body, changing color rapidly as his rage continued to build. "I wasn't there to stop you...but...but...YOU WON'T HAVE JAMESON!!!" He yelled as fire poured from his body, black flames shooting into the sky, parting that clouds, as they took the form of a dragon.

"No mercy....I will slaughter all of you....starting with you...." He said as he pointed towards the machine. As quick as he pointed he was off, rushing towards the hulking piece of metal. As Crow jumped from the ground his hands became encased in black flames. The pyromancer launched black fire balls towards the head of the machine, trying his best to blast a hole in the thing, if he couldn't destroy it from the outside, he would break it from the inside.

Born with a heart broken from the start
Emiko suddenly gasped very loudly, as if she had been under water for a very long time, past her limit, and finally broke the surface to take desperately needed gulps of air, filling her lungs with the oxygen she needed to stay alive.



Confused and disoriented she looked around, turning her head from side to side in hopes of seeing something she recognized, but it was all white. A sterile, cold and empty white. The kind that is in horror movies, and the next person to die is obviously the girl running down the hallway with the same kind of flickering white lights.

“Hello?” Emiko called out, feeling a chill of dread, “Is anyone here! Helloooo?” she took a step forward wanting to explore this vast empty space, hoping to find an exit, but something was holding her back. “What the…” she looked down to see black rope around her waist and quickly turned around to see a huge black obelisk behind her, connected to the ropes. Only thing was; it wasn’t ropes, as Emiko soon realized when she tried to tear herself free, because they snapped only to sway in the air and then connect again. It was like they were alive.

“No. Stop it,” she angrily muttered while struggling to free herself. Quickly snapping the black veins that were holding her back Emiko dashed forward in flight, but one lashed out at her followed by several more and grabbed hold of her foot. She fell forward, hitting the ground hard with a loud thud. Groaning she tried to get up but was at the same time pulled back towards the obelisk. Fear gripped her heart and Emiko screamed while kicking her legs, trying to break the black veins only to get her other foot caught as well. “NO!” she struggled harder, kicked around and with her arms tried to pull herself away but she was still slowly being reeled in.

Suddenly a sharp blinding pain shot through Emiko’s arm, immediately maker her scream a high pitched scream out loud, arch her back and instinctively cradle it as if that would protect it from the pain. Tears welled up in her eyes and quickly overflowed, streaming down her cheeks as she squeezed her eyes shut and writhed in pain. It felt like her arms was going to break, or maybe it already was? However, the second Emiko stopped struggling against the ropes several shot forward, grabbing her around her thighs and waist and pulled her back incredibly fast. Just like a fish on a hook. She groaned in pain as her back hit the cold stone obelisk while still carefully holding her arm. The searing pain had thankfully stopped and was now only reduced to throbbing.

She didn’t understand why this was happening. What had she done to deserve this? Was she a bad person? "Why am I being punished like this?" Tears welled up in her eyes again, but not from the pain but self-pity. Emiko hadn’t noticed it yet, but she was slowly being merged with the obelisk, and as more of her body would be pulled in she’d be consumed with dark thought and memories, ultimately losing herself as the room grew darker and colder.

Jonathan glanced at Jaws's head off to the side. "His loss." Jonathan said coldly, the shadows influencing the War of Roses faded away leaving the rose coloured swords in their original form. They had served him well and at least for now they would continue to serve him, while Jonathan didn't know how long that was for he knew that he would have to make as much use of them as he possibly could before they finally disappeared.

"We should continue on." Jonathan muttered as he began to move upstairs, he was wasting time standing here time that he could be using to find his friends and assist them. Jonathan turned away from the broken body of Jaws and began to walk upstairs, as he did he drew in shadows from the surronding area recharging his amulet. He would need to have some more power to use against whatever was going to be in their way when he caught up with the others.

He finally arrived where the others were to see Jennifer going to attack the reaper, he didn't know what the hell was going on but it was evident that it was chaos. He had to intervene obviously. "What in the hell is going on in here?" Jonathan said looking towards their general direction, however he did not make direct eye contact with any of them in case the body snatcher was at work here. He however kept them all within his peripheral vision, his blades readied in case he had to take action.

GROUP 1: CROW + YOUMA + JAMESON + AMOURETTE

The machine slammed backwards, however the flames which burned into his chest were drawn inside two vents. The eyes began to glow with new light and the energy of the fire was shot back as another of the massive eye lasers..

But it was too slow.

+ OLIVER

Oliver flew through the air, slamming into Crow fist first and knocking him out of the way of the massive beam, the shockwave from the blast causing them both to roll away.

"YOU MORON." He spat annoyed. "You think getting pissed will help anyone?! you're always controlled by your emotions! That's your biggest problem!" He said, practically ignoring the robot as he stomped over to the boy and slammed his fist into him again with a glare. "That's for leaving without saying anything you big idiot!" He spat.

He turned to the machine. "Control. Control separates us from them. Even when we're in pain we think. We act appropriately. That's why we're not murderers. Because when we want to murder people we STOP. CONTROL." He said clenching his fists. "This calls for one of the classics. One of those big all or nothing attacks.." He said with a grin. He glanced to Jameson. "You in?"

"...... Oliver.. I.."

"no time to talk about what an idiot you are. ARE YOU IN?!"

"...Yeah!" He whipped out his evoker.

"PER

SO

NA!"

Caesar summoned again over his head. "You shoot your lasers, crow does his fire, I do my lightning. We do it together. No way it can shunt that much energy. It'll overload and blow up."

"And if not We've got a White Queen in play."

"Huh..?" Jameson turned to the machine, reaching out with his mind. "Oh! OH!" Jameson said eagerly. "This could work!"

"On three!"

The machine drew out it's sword.

"one.."

The machine raised it high into the air.

"two.."

The machine sent it crashing down!

"THREE!"

GROUP 2: EMI + STAR + THE REAPER + JEN +JONATHAN

The reaper halted, faltering for a moment. Possessed..? He turned to the girl. He then glanced to his charm. A charm that took all his ghost powers into the human world.. Did that included possession..? If so..!

He turned to Jonathan. "Be ready. If they're telling the truth I'll figure out a way to force her out, then YOU strike hard and fast!"

He turned to Emiko, forcing his spiritual energy into her and possessing her.

~~~

Normally he'd simply be forced into her body and take control of her. Instead he was sucked into this great while expanse. Not far away he saw a massive spreading black goop. He floated over to it before spotting Emiko. As soon as he saw her he rushed over. He tried reaching for her but his hands simply phased through..

Whoever was in control here was strong.. He couldn't take control. So he'd try something else. He turned off his reaper charm and assumed human form. "Emiko?!" He roared out. "Emiko!!" He rushed to it. "Come on! This is your body! You can do it!" He reached into it, desperately trying to touch her, to grip her, despite his hands being immaterial. "Emiko.. I.. come on.. I.. I need you." He said in a low voice.

"You're the only one I've got... You can't go away just like this.. Not like.. not like.. not like dad.."

Its bedtime! Bed=Ethnic Time=Cleansing
Crow's body jerked towards the ground, landing with a loud thud, as he became disoriented for a few moments, as he regained his senses, he prepared to swipe at whatever attacked him, but as his hand flew towards the figure's face, it froze in mid-air. His eyes showed a fear as he stared into Oliver's eyes, his flames dieing down as he seemed to revert back to normal. But even in doing so he said nothing, he just listened to what Oliver said. Control...it was what separated them from killers...it was true, every word of it. But Crow knew he was far from perfect, he had killed, hell he had been locked up these past few months for a murder he committed, and while in his mind the people may have deserved it...they where better then that. All of them, they where above mindless killing. His head jerked back as Oliver struck him for leaving, he showed no emotion, but inside he was smiling, it was good to see Oliver again after being away for so long.

".....Good to see you again...bro...." Crow said as he got up, getting to his feet as he looked over at Jameson, seeing that he was ok. It was strange that Oliver had managed to snap him out of his rage, but the two shared a connection, as close as Crow was to Jameson, he may have been even closer to Oliver, but that was a story for another day.

"So all out attack? My kind of plan...simple..." He said as his flames sparked up, his eyes showing a great determination. Oliver was right he did let his emotions control him, but no more would he be a slave to his anger. This was his chance to change forever. As Oliver counted down, Crow began to charge for the attack. His eyes narrowed on the machine as Oliver gave the go-ahead to attack, the pyromancer let loose with a powerful stream of flames, putting his all into it, if this plan worked, they would be able to get to the others.

Born with a heart broken from the start
The bright white rooms was becoming darker and darker and Emiko was standing now, the black veins had pulled her up and like snakes they were circling around her limbs. She was starting to feel week, it was like those living ropes were sucking out her energy, her hope and her motivation to fight. Her eyes and nose were red and silent tears were still trickling down her cheeks and her head hung low with a glazed expression on her face. She was seeing things and reliving every scary moment from her childhood and everything that had ever made her cry.

As Emiko grew weaker the living veins worked faster, pulling her in and enveloping her in a black goop. She squeezed her eyes shut as recent memories started to consume her. Memories that involved Deus. Reliving them made her heart ache and tears flow faster down her wet cheeks. This seemed to give the living black veins a boost in power and speed, and they almost completely wrapped themselves around her. And the last thing Emiko heard before she disappeared into the obelisk and black goo was her name being called out by a familiar voice.

The world that had now become hers was cold and completely pitch-black, it was that kind of darkness that made you question your existence because there was nothing else to be seen. It felt like she had been reduced to nothingness. There was nowhere for her to go, nothing for her to do but let the darkest of her days and thoughts repeat themselves in her mind, numbing her. “I’m sorry…” Emiko whispered. I lied. I told you that I wouldn’t leave… but I lied, she thought. She had left him now. She had let herself be caught and sucked into this nightmare despite that she promised that she would never leave him willingly.

But I didn’t want to! I swear! She cried out internally. How could she do this to him? How could she say that she wouldn’t leave, that she wouldn’t be like everyone else in his life that had abandoned him and yet do the exact same thing. She hadn’t even put up a real fight. She didn’t deserve to be with him. Maybe he was better off without her? What if she’d leave him sooner or later? Perhaps it was better it happened now. He’d spend the rest of the year getting over it, and then never let anyone in close again. Never. Soon he will start to forget me. He’ll erase me completely from his mind and it will be like I never existed. I’ll just be another ghost from his past. Nothing more, nothing less…

No… she suddenly though, No! He wouldn’t forget me! He cares for me, and I… I… Emiko sniffled and got up on her feet, clenched her fists, took a deep breath and then yelled out “And I love him!!” She stepped forward in the darkness without really having anywhere to go, “And I want him to know that! I want him to know what I feel!!” she continued yelling, “And I’m going to do everything I can to make that come true! I want to be with Deus! It isn’t going to end like this! I’m not going to end like this!!”

Of all the things. Of all the possible ways she could have been attacked right now.

Star's eyes widened in total shock as the scythe moved through her, the ribbon of light falling away from her hand. The attack didn't cut her physically, but in her current state, she recognized it for what it was instantly. An attack to her soul. An attack to her, at the moment rather tenuously controlled part-elemental soul.

No, she thought to herself as she felt her physical body feeling suddenly exhausted. No, no, no, no, don't...

Don't panic.


Too late.

Star let out a shout of pain and fell to her knees as her elemental side recoiled from the blow, her powers slipping out of her control like water through her fingers. She hugged her arms close to her chest, her body shaking as her head fell forward. Light crackled over her skin in erratic pulses as her breath came in short pants. The photomancer clenched her teeth together as a particularly hard shudder coursed through her.

"Stupid..." she said under her breath. "Of all the ways to attack me...God..." She closed her eyes against another wave, mentally trying to gather her powers back to herself .It was no use. Like a scared child, her elemental powers were running wild. As it was, she had only been able to control them for a short time. Deus had, in effect, put her on the fast track to complete insanity.

And the death that came with it, presumably.

She forced her right hand to open, her necklace falling to the floor. "Jen..." she said. "Pendant. Quick."

"Stupid..." Jen heard Star speak; barely audible as the part-elemental sounded in pain and completely exhausted. "Of all the ways to attack me...God..." The purple-haired girl immediately felt a gush of relief at learning that her closest friend was still alive - and closer examination revealed that the scythe drew no blood - presumably it was some sort of psychic or spiritual assault. Although it didn't take a genius to figure out at this point that Star was far from being in the clear - despite her earlier impressive display of willpower by not only reining in her elemental side but actually getting it to do her bidding, Jen knew that Star was also at her most vulnerable in that state, as she was doing all of that through sheer willpower. And the slightest disruption to her focus would cause the unstable elemental powers to rage out of control. It was like revving up a car's engine to full speed, and then disabling the brakes and steering wheel.

"Star, quickly! Your..." Jen said as she rushed over to Star, getting down on one knee next to the photomancer.

"...Pendant. Quick." Star finished what Jen was about to say as despite her entire body appearing to rebel against itself, the photomancer forced her hand open to allow her pendant to drop to the floor.

"I got it!" Jen shouted as she retrieved the pendant, taking it by the chain before wrapping the chain around Star's neck and fastening the clasp. "Did I do it? Did I?" Jen asked somewhat nervously as she rested her hands on Star's shoulders, hoping she wasn't too late.

ENLIGHTENED SWORD "RISE FROM DELUSION"

A powerful blast of energy erupted from behind the mecha. A massive roar came ripping through the atmosphere of the French Alps, accompanying a gigantic flare of blue inferno that towered over even the mecha itself. Cool blue flames danced around menacingly, looking like the very flames of hell itself, with the silvery blade of Roukanken being its core. Holding the oversized katana over her head was the Calamity Demon, half-phantom Kotoka Youma, leaping off from the mecha's back and into the air after scaling up the mecha completely unnoticed.

"Reminds me of the time when I made King Denim mad about 598 years ago," The girl said lightly, with a slight smirk on her face.

With a deafening roar that shook the whole alps and potentially starting a whole mountain-range avalanche the gargantuan ethereal blade of blue inferno was brought down towards the mecha, the girl clearly having the intent to cleave the piece of contraption cleanly in half straight down the middle!

Jonathan glanced towards Jennifer and Star, it was good that Star's elemental side was held back in place. However he couldn't exactly rule anything out yet, after all he ahd to wait for the body snatcher to appear before he could judge anything, hopefully though the reaper was doing a decent job of getting the body snatcher out of Emiko's body, at least good enough that he wouldn't have to wait much longer.

"Well then, it seems like we just have to wait now." Jonathan spoke as he glanced back towards Emiko, he wasn't sure how much longer the reaper would take but he was more then ready for when he succeeded. However to make sure he had enough ammunition he began to gather shadows from the nearby area into his amulet, he didn't know how strong the body snatcher was outside of possessing someone, for all he knew she could be as strong as Jaws (minus the material changing thing of course). If that was the case Jonathan wanted to be more then prepared.

Group 1: OLIVER + JAMESON + CROW + AMOURETTE + YOUMA

The beam slammed into it's chest, the fire raked across it's body, the lightning blasted it backwards, and even a spray of ice slammed into it's body from the limping wounded Amourette, ripping a hole across it's body, allowing the massive blade to pierce deep into the body and send an explosion through the machine..

However not of flames..

Golden light that rained down on them all, healing injuries, revitalizing them, giving them strength.

~~~

"This is... my wish.." Elias said tearfully before falling to the ground, blood pooling at his feet. He was dying.. The strain of his powers was too much.

Either way the Professor only began to laugh. He walked to Elias with a mad smile. "It's done... it's ready.." He said laughing more and more wildly. He kicked the boy's body away sending it rolling across the floor with a painful crack. . "MY BLACK QUEEN! MY ENDGAME STARTS NOW! You did it boy! You lasted just long enough..!"

GROUP 2: STAR + REAPER + EMIKO + JEN

Yuri found herself having more and more trouble controlling the body. She'd never in her life felt someone fight back so forcefully. Even though the girls were distracted and this was her chance to escape she couldn't manage to even move properly!

~~~

Emiko was freed, the black pillar faded away and Deus was able to grab her. He pulled her into a tight hug, resting his head on her shoulders. "Moron! This was what I was worried about you moorooon! I leave you alone with these crazies for five minutes and you nearly die!" He said before releasing her. He grinned broadly. "You're stronger than you think you are, ya know? I can't believe you beat her.."

Either way he dissipated, and Emiko would find herself in control of her body

~~~

Yuri was.. forced out!? She was flung out of Emiko's body, slamming into the wall forcefully. She groaned a bit and rose to her feet, disoriented and dazed..

~~~

The reaper emerged. "Yay, I did it. My.. magical spell that shows her what she wants to see to help her fight possession worked." He said lying through his teeth. However they didn't have long to celebrate, Star was going nuts and Yuri was recovering quickly. "Uh..! what?! Huh?!"

Oh right, he stabbed her. "uh.. Did I cause this? Shit! Can I help?"

Crow watched as the light fell onto the group, his energy returning, which considering how much he used to get here, was a good thing. He looked at Jameson, running over to the man, looking him over carefully.

"Boss...are you ok? Your not hurt severly are you? Do you need us to get you out of here?" He asked franticly as he moved around their leader, making sure he was ok before they kept moving, his eyes went to Oliver ever so often, he knew it wouldn't take long for Jameson to figure out what he did, but if Oliver found out, he was sure his brother-in-arms would have something to say, but at the moment he didn't want Jameson to know either.

"So where do we go from here? Are the others going to be ok?" He asked as he looked to Oliver, feeling that he would know the state of the others.

Jonathan continued to watch Emiko as the reaper had gone inside her to fix this. After a while eventually the body snatcher was sent flying out straight into the wall. This was the opportunity that Jonathan had been waiting for and could finally grasp. Despite the fact that his comrades were in a bit of trouble Jonathan couldn't let the body snatcher get away into someone else.

It wasn't soon after that the reaper came out as well. When he asked what he could do to help Jonathan just glanced towards Star. "Just make sure that you didn't do anything bad." Jonathan gave a small comment "I'll finish her off." Jonathan said as he looked back towards Yuri, now the main trouble that would occur was if she could see. There was one main way of fixing that.

Jonathan manipulated the shadows around him into forming a blindfold to attempt to cover over Yuri's eyes. If she couldn't make eye contact she couldn't possess people, at least Jonathan hoped that the thin layer of shadow would prevent that. However he wasn't finished yet, he still had more to throw at her. He manipulated even more shadows into several concentrated little orbs hovering around his hand, he fired them off towards Yuri attempting to at least knock her out.

The girl staggered around trying to regain her bearing. That last attack surprisingly drained her a helluva lot. Damn... she thought she got her powers back, but apparently it's just not enough... "Tch... Who the hell are we going against here anyway... to have a giant mecha in store..." The girl muttered in annoyance, dispelling Roukanken with a brilliant shatter as she trudged her way through the snow towards Jameson, Oliver and some huge dude with spiky hair. "So? What now? I'm pretty sure it's not done until we get the Professor,"
