Melevolent bowed respectfully. ''I wish not to intrude Lord. I am a messanger only. My Lord Gerard wishes your allegiance. And he wishes m to tell you, The enemy- Our enemy- Have your Brother.''
Harry cawed again. ''We warpcrossers. Keepers of Balance. The force of Evil. Too strong. We require assistance.''
Jack was in his room. It was a kind of Dojo, but more modern. He had weapons of all sorts on the wall, and he now wore nought but untarnshed white robes, like the ones worn by the Samurai of ancient terra. He was Meditating, waiting for someone to ready him, to take the fight to the enemy.

Banshee felt for a moment Midnight shy away from her father's rage, but it was a moment. Then he felt her anger and confidence, along with the effects of his personality bleed into her own. She ignored her father's anger her hands falling easily to her hips the picture of not only feminine beauty, but also power and confidence, "You were rather unspecific as to which you wanted now weren't you." half her face draws in a harsh grin, "I brought you a shadow, a more powerful shadow in many ways." she looks down at Matty with a hungry grin, "But if you don't want him I do." she smiles and looks at Magnus and the children, "I am not impressed, should I be? the only reason I don't lop them in half to see what is in side is that they may be useful at some point." she chuckles, "Good job you can procreate? I assumed you were aware of your dick. Since you operate it so much while we were on mission..." she grins lifting Matty and turning to stride off.

Banshee chuckle with evil glee, the Insults Midnight were returning with were much better. He then sensed something and Forced Midnight to turn and jump back- Which saved her form from a crushing Axe blow from Zora. ''How dare you! You filthy (please do not swear)!'' She swings again, Banshee taking over fully for a few moments and Forcing Midnight back again. Then He ducked her thrid swipe and tore Zora's chest open, her blood splattering over Midnight. He followed up with a scream which ruptured a large number of organs, adn knocked Zora out. *She'll live. Crazy (please do not swear)...* He mutters, psychicly, ebfore reliquisihing Controll to Midnight.

"Zaknafien.....Roland...kill auntie Midnight." Magnus said under his breath as the two boys tore forward. The shadows sprang to life around Midnight sensing something dangerous approaching Mathius. The impaled one of them, Zaknafien, and proceeded to dismember him. "Magnus looked in shock and pure horror calling off his other son.
Gerard smiled, "Maybe he can be of some use after all. Keep him my daughter you did well." He watched as Malevolent came bursting through a portal followed by a man about the size of Magnus. "Where is my brother?" Crell muttered.
Ty awoke to the sight of a ceiling, Solara's computer room. "I'm going to them. They want Drakka, I'll take on the guise and go in." Ty said to Solara knowing she would hear but most likely not answer. "I still love you and thats OUR son. Are you coming or not? I won't say your wrong for not going in. Its suicidal I know."

Midnight grinned at Magnus, "I'm sorry brother dear.. but you are no longer the strongest. All those years you were allowed to beat me, all those years you got to torture me for the smallest mis-step." she smiles at him malevolently, "Well all those years I honed my mind, and now I am rewarded for my intelligence. Sadly your rewards are over, biceps that could kill a cow aren't much use." she points with her free hand at Zora, "Unless that is the cow you plan to kill." she leers at his children, "Your daddy is a fool, if you come near me I will tear out your heart and show it to you before you die." with that she waves at her father and leaves the room headed for her room where she drops Matty on the floor and begins to go about building Banshee's body for him with a smile. *You could always go into Matty's body if you like... I know the runes and spells for a transfer like that.*
Solara looks up from her screen the only thing left of her crying is the tear stains, "Neji is coming here soon, he will be leading the assault. Wait for him, and then we will go together..." she looks beaten, utterly damaged and she returns to clicking things on the screen with her finger.

Banshee shook his head, His foul grin rading to a toothy frown. *I require a bidy bigger than his. My own body is all i want now. Though being confined here with you has not been unenjoyable.* He grins again. *i say We killl the other Children. Before your halfwit brother gets any ideas.*
Korvus enters Jacks dojo, bows respectfully and sits opposite him. ''You've taught me much Jack. I have practiced and practiced with the blade and i think i have finally mastered what you have taught me. I come to get you, as we re ready to begin the attack.'' Jack nods, opening his eyes. ''Thank you Korvus. Please, take your weapon and await me.'' Korvus nods and leaves.
Jack stood, not bothering with his armour, or any of his gadgets. He wanted t either fight as he is, or die trying. He takes two Katana's off the wall, as well as a spear, 3 throwing knves and a hand-scythe. He straps these in the places thy are most useful- his belt for the katanas and scythe, his back for the spear, and the knives up his sleeves. Then he left the dojo and came into Solaras room. He saw Solara's tear stains and he moved to comfort her, sitting beside her and putting his hand on her shoulder. ''I'll get him back. Its my fault he's gone, so I promise you, I'll get him back. Nomatter the cost to me.''

Solara turns to face him a fresh wave of tears taking her eyes as she presses into Jack's body sobbing. "I want my son back.."she sobs into his chest her extreemly long white hair falling down her back and around her face which is pressed to Jack's chest creating a sort of blockade from the rest of the world. He can feel his shirt become hot with her tears as she clings to him. She remains with him holding her for several blissfilled moments. The sad serenity fades quickly as she pulls away from him whiping the tears and the stains left on her face away, "No.. it's not your fault. I knew what she wanted... I really thought she would go after Ty.." she chokes slightly on the next few words, "Not Matty.." she looks ready to cry again but she restrains herself by biting her lip hard, her white teeth closing in on the scar always on her lip.
Neji strides into the room where Jack, Ty, and Solara are a grim look on his face as he notices Ty's cold gaze on the couple. How come he never noticed how much seeing Solara and Jack together bothered Ty before? He shook the thought away and did his best to grin, "Sorry to interrupt your very cute threesome.. but it's time." he glances at them, "We have to re-balance the scales." he looks at them, "We are walking into certain death. They have us out manned and over gunned. But I have faith we'll make it." he smiles at them all his short cropped silver hair making him look like Harry in his rough and tumble youth days. "For Harry" he says simply as Solara slashes outwards with her hand a reality comes apart showing the world of Nightmares.
...................................
Midnight grins at Banshee as she slices her hand with a blade allowing the blood to drop onto the very old empty armor she took from the walker's armory. It hadn't taken long to carve the runes needed on the armor. Matty is forced to watch from her bed where she had deposited him to free up more floor space as her blood pools into a puddle and then expands crawling over the armor and into it quickly. The armor slowly begins to rise as it is absorbed into the bubbling dark flesh. Midnight continues to allow her blood to flow drip by drip from her arm towards the floor until a hulking monstrosity not unlike Banshee's old form stands motionless before her. Easily 8 feet tall, the creature stands with pieces of the runed armor showing. Midnight grins as she steps forward and carves now on the creatures flesh with her sharpened claws 4 final runes. She speaks slowly as she does, "Transfer.. Control.. Reshape.. Soul Bind.." the 5th and final rune is placed as a deep red glow emanates from the runes, "Permanent." she says as Banshee is sucked from her mind into the creature. The feeling is intense, pain and pleasure combined. A feeling of freedom and slavery all at once. This is more than the transfer to her body, this nearly brings him to his knees with psychic pain. The monstrosity itself kneels roaring in a deep terrifying pain. The Banshee sees his own Talons. Then he sees Midnight looking at him her deep red eyes smiling slightly and a grin touching her face, "How do you like it... You can reform it to look like what you want." she smiles turning to look at Matty, "And now I think it's time for some fun."

Banshee breaths in, out, in, out. Like every breath is a struggle for survival, his new throat rasping. ''Flesh. new flesh. Armour... Ah, the feelings are good. The pain is good, though it forces me to my knees. I should not be on my Knees. It is no place for a daemon.'' He stands up, flexing his new muscles. ''This is... Excellent. Truly excellent.'' He tilts his head back, cracking his neck. ''Thats it.'' He raised his arms. Then he let out a massive scream, Fury, Pain and Glee. ''I agree. Lets have some fun. Such a little thing. Fragile.'' He says, staring into Mathius's eyes, his fiery gaze promising ain and suffering.
Jack held Solara close, Whispering words of Comfort in The ancient tounge of angels. ''Never once did i suspect that. Mathius, he seemed too interested in her, but she seemed harmless. who knows what Banshee has awakened in her. And what gifts he granted in return. What a fool i was for trying to kill her with his blade...'' He looked up as Neji walked in, smiling at his joke. He stands, his weapons ready for him to draw. He had a large stain from where Solara ad been crying. He ripped off his shirt, knowing none should care. If they did, it was no skin off off his back. His bare chest was muscular, yet heavily scarred, the marks of years of self harm under banshee's influence, and more self harm in the years of recuperation.

Ty looked at Neji and began preparing his body,shadows formed first a chainmail then a cloak that covered the pained look on his face. How could she still be with him, after everything and now their son being kidnapped. It was a travesty. "Neji, I am truly sorry for Roxa's actions, his rage fueled that and allowed him to grasp control for a moment. And before you ask, yes it pains me to see them like that, love is strong but I cannot allow it to make me choose rash decisions." Ty left it at that and shadow phased to the gate of the crosser homes.
Mathius' eyes flitted open to see a large man and Midnight standing before him, "Let me go..." He said in an angry hushed tone as he realized what was going on." When no answer came from the his eyes turned pure black, "LET ME GO!" He yelled lashing several shadow spikes at the man, Banshee, who dodged them with ease and screeched at him. "Emperor damn you Banshee you squealing (please do not swear)!" Mathius said regaining his bearings.
He continued to lash out until suddenly a door opened somewhere behind him and Magnus burst in. "Give him to me!" Magnus yelled charging in unaware of the consequences to his actions. His charge was met by a dozen edged shadows that impaled him, curved back and impaled him again. "Gah...da...damn you..." He cursed coughing up blood. A hate and fear filled Mathius turned his head to see the spectacle and smiled. "Burn..." he muttered and the shadows blazed bright white. A nightmares worst nightmare, it caused Midnight to flinch back and Magnus screamed in pain as his body turned to a pile of ash.
Gerard watched his sons death and looked at the healing Zora and her now fatherless children. "Your punishment for his failure my sweet daughter in law is death." Gerard helled up a clawed hand and arced lightning through the children as their bodies collapsed he looked at Zora, "Any last words?"

Gone, the pain, the rage, the crippling stupidity is smoking in a pile on her floor. She turns grinning at Matty as her hand reshapes into some tendrils moving past the shadows and plucking him from the bed like a ripe apple. Slowly her hand retracts until he is held before her placed on his feet as she eyes him her eyes sparkle with something in them, something dark and scary. The shadows react to her closeness and the danger in her eyes rushing up her legs binding her to the floor. "You just made my day..." she says her hip length hair moving of it's own accord towards him as her hand reshapes to normality. He is drawn forward towards her dazzling red eyes as her hair entangles his neck slowly. The shadows constrict further wanting to harm her, but they cannot react for she isn't harming him.
Her deeps red lips meet first his neck gently nibbling at it. WIth her tormentor gone, it seems ironic that she should first touch a male on his ashes. The irony is not lost on a calculating mind like hers as her lips travel up his jawline until the meet his forcefully. The shadows seem confused as they release her legs slightly allowing her to move forward towards him her hands meeting his face not delicately, but not hard enough to bring the shadows back. She smiles her hands loosely draped around his shoulders as she pulls back and smiles sickly sweet, "Restalphia." the shadows know something is wrong as reality bends and warps about them, childhood terrors and dark omens rush at them as the chain around Matty crumbles only for him to find himself held in place by monsters too horrifying to describe. Banshee can see that this is the truest world of shadows, here when he looks at Midnight she appears as one of them to him, a creature so dark and tainted that words alone cannot capture what she is. As Matty looks upon her he sees what appears as a harpy. As her teeth spread he can hear her own cries in his ears. Captured like ocean in a sea shell, the screams of thousands echo around him, yet all he can hear is hers. "You will join them..." she says with a terrible smile as her hands reform into claws and she offers Banshee the first blow.
Solara can feel Ty's thoughts. He sees her gaze fall on him as old mixed feelings stir within. She looks at him, her youth is reflected by his eyes. So young, so innocent, so in love. That love is still there, it's darkned, tainted by mistakes and lies. Damaged hopes and dreams are there. The controlling hands that once made her feel so safe. She didn't have to think with him, he thought for her as well. But he loved her, he loved the damaged smile. The look of pleasure as she began helping raise Matty.
Then her gaze flicked to Jack. She admired his chest. His strength, his compassion, and his gentleness. Her strength, her decisions reflected from his scars. Love written by a thousand tiny scratches. Each one had felt her lips tender love. She had helped him, she had made the nightmares go away. He loved her, he loved her perfection deeply, completely. In is smile she saw her own whitewashed hair as she dragged him through meadows and tumbled down ravens. She saw their kisses in the sky and the dances in moonlight. He loved the strength. Was Ty right.. had she been loving Jack for so long that she had forgotten his flaws.. was he to blame for her son.. she wondered sometimes, if what she loved about Jack was that he is more damaged than her.
Somehow she managed to stand her psychic blade forming as she entered where angels fear to tread. Darkness greeted her light, like a moth to a flame it bounced off of her as she stepped forward into the city that made up the Nightmare's realm. She could see the gothic stronghold as monsters rushed forward to attack them.
Neji nodded to Ty, "It is forgiven.. come." he leaps through the poral with a strong look on his face. Time to man up he thinks.

Ty races forward, homing in on his son's shadows. *Solara, should I not make it out of here I want you to know that everything will be taken care of. In our old home under the third step lies a box, inside is a flower and a key. The first flower you gave me on that very first mission, the key is to the lock box I kept all those years and never let you see inside.* Ty continued running through the corridors of the Nightmare realm. His shadows pulsed, they were stronger here in this place and they led him to a large open room where Midnight, a man, and Mathius all stood , but they were disconnected from this realm.
Ty walked to his son stricken with fear and the shock that he had not met one Nightmare on his journey. He whispered in his son's ear, "Mathius if you can here me I want you to know that it is not real. Where ever you are is an illusion. Ty reached into his sons mind, saw the frightening images and shied away, he saw Shade, and every single soul that the daemon had murdered.
Mathius could hear something, a faint whisper as the darkness cut into him, his shadows slithered inward' unable to fight back he screamed in pain as a 'dog' bit him. His eyes grew dark once more as he tried to break free his screams of pain becoming screams of rage, the shadows finally lashed back out cutting the side of Midnights face. His power slowly started to escalate as the shadows pushed forward growing and growing.
..............................................................................................................
Drakka was following behind Neji, he sensed an familiar presence hear. The daemon man, and his brother. "Crell is close at hand." Drakka muttered in fear drawing a large spear.
..............................................................................................................
Gerard waited holding back all shadows as he sensed the break in the barrier. He smiled as Ty found Midnight and again at the fact they not only brought the shadow but the plague bearer as well!
(All I can post for Drakka and Gerard till others post.)

Banshee smiled, a drak, twisted, sadistic grin that only an psychopath can preform. He raised a finger, which ended in a long, ebon claw. This world was his world, full of fear and creatures of evil. He reached out, and touched Mathius's Torso. The pinprick was nothing, then mathius's blood begn to boil in his veins, heating rapidly and causing his whole body to writh in pain. Then suddenly, the whole ordeal ended and Mathius's blood turned to ice, freezing him in place for about 10 seconds.
Jack entered the portal, his spear ready and in hand. His throwing knives were on his belt now, having lost the top of his uniform. One of the enemy leapt up at him, and he threwthe separinto its throat as it roared. The spear passed clean through its head, and the besat collapsed beside him. Jack grabed the spear end, flipped in tinto his hadn and brought it down through the creatures head. It shuddered and died. ''Korvus, are you with me?'' Jack said. Korvus came up behind Jack, Still in his armour but armed with the same weapons. ''I am.'' Jack nodded, turning to the others. ''I am going to find Banshee, and be rid of him once and for all. I'd tell you to send them to hell for me, but thats basicly making them hit the ground.'' He then smiled, gazed into Solaras eyes and thought, so she could hear him, *If I don't come back, Mathius will be safe enough to rescue. Banshee will die before me, i assure you.* He waited for her reply.
Harry sat on Nejis shoulder, gazing at the scenario. ''Neji. Captain. Touch forehead. Mine. Important.'' It shifted postition slightly so it could look at Nejis eyes. ''Harry want speak.''
Malevolent was on the battlements, his old lute in his hadns. He tired of the great game, the one they were playing. It was like chess, and all the black side had left was a king, a queen and a pair of Pawns. The whites had thier own pawn, stuck behind enemy lines, as well as a king, two knights, a queen, and a castle.He sighed. They were winning. The beasts Gerard had created were nught but a bumper in the road for the warpcrossers. He began to play a tune on his lute, an ancient song from before the emperor of mankind had come, before the humans had even discovered long-range space travel. He culd not remember the name, only the tune and the words.
Zora stared around at the messy piles of gore her children ha become. So soon, so easily. Magnus, her love, was dead. She had nothing. She fell to her knees. Then before Gerard could kill her, she sliced her own head off with her bladelike arm, her head rolled arcoss the floor, a defiant look on its lifeless eyes.

When Mathius finally came to from the assualt he smiled, an unholy evil smile as his bright blue eyes raged black and the shadows reached up to Banshee. "So Banshee you still love to play games?" a raspy voice said coming from Matt. "Well I like to play games too!" The shadows moved up binding Banshee in place, Mathius' arms burst into the bright white flames causing all the beast around him to shrink away. As he fell to the ground he smiled again, "Lets PLAY!" He screamed turning every shadow on Banshee and attacking in full force.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Spoken like a true warrior..." Gerard muttered before turning his arms into his weapons of choice, a claw and a massive sword. "Crell, your brother is yours for the taking so long as you will stay around and help my army after this little scuffle." Gerard says to the oversized daemon who simply nods and marches down a corridor searching for Drakka,.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drakka pauses behind Neji, "He's coming....RUN!" Drakka yells only to be stopped by a ball of gore. He draws the spear, stabbing through the beast only to have it puncture straight in. "Guess this calls for my powers." He mutters raising his arms and a swarm of flies comes forward. They bite at anything attempting to harm Drakka, sucking at the pus that starts to seep from his body.

Death, even in love there is death. Both of them are telling her good bye if they should fail to return. She looks at Ty and nods a slight smile touches her lips from all those millenia ago. She looks at him and for a moment, just a single moment he feels like he sees her old love for him bloom. Then he watches her stride forward to Jack.
She looks at him and he feels her love rush over him. She kisses him, a kiss so loving and soft that if he never returns the feeling will remain on her lips forever, "I love you." she says simply. Her amrs release him as another beast charges forward only to impale itself on her psychic blade.
Neji nods at the bird touching it's forhead curious what it needs to say.
Midnight doesn't stray from the light of his shadows as they attack Banshee she comes forward her clawed hand sinking into his shoulder, straight through muscle to the bone. Then she flexed her hand as blood dripped from her cheek landing on his chest, "Your so adorable in pain." she says with a smile as nightmarish monsters come forward at her beckon. "Have you ever felt what it is liked to get ripped in half?" she says smiling her arm hand teasing down his chest not cutting him but rather tickling, "You'll love it." she says as the monsters reach out for him and another shadow cuts her arm.

Neji's mind flashes with light, then he finds himself in a white room, abaout 8 cubed feet. there are two chairs, both facing a table. One is unnocupied. In the other sits harry, back in his human form. He smiles weakly. He looks older than he did when he had died, his white hair turned to grey. ''Hello Son.''
Jack looks into Solara's eyes. She Kissed him, so... passionately. Then she told him she loved him. She sounded sincere- she was sincere. Solara didn't lie. He let her go as a beast attacked them, and watched her impale it. Then he Kissed her back, and whispered in her ear ''I love you too. I always have, and always will.'' Then he Ran down a side passage, towards a sudden daemonic laughter.
Banshee laughed at Mathius's attacks. He remembered the biggest advantage of having served jack all these years. The light no longer hurt him. *he unfurled from his cowering state, still laughing, 3 voices in one. ''Poor Mathius. Your best attacks, rendered useless.'' He delights in the knowledge that he is immune to his victims attacks. Then he realises Midnight is not. He immediantely raises a shield around her, though he doubts mathius would hurt her.
