Roxa stopped in his tracks of laying down shadow wards and other safety precautions. A wave of pure hate washed over him, fueled by millenia of entraptment, a large being was moving this way. It was chasing a man, Jack, but he had no clue he was being followed. Ty had to choose, let him die or warn and help him. *Jack get the hell out of there! Somethings coming!* His mind screamed to his old comrade.
.........................................................................................
Mthius watched as they kept torturing him, he would feel his death approaching then blink and be whole and healthy again. He had finally grasped that this world was not another realm but an illusion inside his mind. He smiled, games of the mind were his domain. "Midnight....tssk tssk tssk...how will you know now?" He said in a taunting tone as he melted into the darkness only to appear behind the gruesome twosome moments later. He multiplied the, shadow doubles, and they began walking a circle. Break the concentration and will of the holder and freedom was his.

Neji looks at his father and then rushes forward to him ignoring the chair until he slams into a barrier at the table length. "This place is not for memories." a hallowed voice says as he nods slipping into his chair, "Dad. What can I do?" he says simply his hands folding on the table as he looks at his father, "How's death?"
Solara watches him go wind whispering through her white hair as she watches him disappear into the night as another creature leaps at her. She turns throwing it back with her mental abilities slamming it into a house as nightmares stream from the buildng monsterous mounts and dogs following as Solara is left by Neji to deal with them. The easily flood over her little cuts and blows landing now and again as she shields Neji who seems lost in Lalala land. She never once cries out, just keeps swinging and throwing creatres.
As Matty comes out of the Restalphia he sees Midnight collapsed over a chair and Banshee standing statuesque his eyes clearly off in nowhere land. Midnight's breathing is strained as her body twists and writhes he isn't certain if it is pain or pleasure, only that groans escape her lips and small cries. Sweat pours from her face and body. Banshee stirs clearly out of the Restalphia as her eyes begin to open a pure red color. She looks weakned by controlling it because she slowly begins to move again.

Banshee Stirred again. ''Well... Unexpected Mathius. It seems you have found a way out of her World of Nightmares and Darkness.'' He picks Mathius up, holding him by the neck, and held him close to his head. Then his mouth opened impossibly wide, and Banshee let out a Unchecked scream, the sound Making all creatures, good or evil, stagger and turn thier headis in confusion. Several Hellhounds were blasted apart by the scream, indeed the only creatures unaffected were Banshee, Midnight, due to the wards he had placed on her, Harry and Neji, away in thier own world, And Jack, who had long since become used to the Daemon Prince's greatest weapon. Mathius however, he got the brnt of it. He was blown backwards, breaing a few ribs as he impeacted the solid wall, and making a large dent in it. His ears were ringing, unable to hear anything, blood trickling from burst eardrums. his eyes watery nd stung, and his body numbed with pain. He could see Banshee laughing.
Jack Heard Tys Warning and Brought his Sword Round to see what was Following him. He saw nothing. ''Blast and Damnation'' he muttered. Then He leapt up onto the roof, Where ty could see Him. He watched the Hellhounds get burst by Banshee's scream, and Everyone get knocked back. ''Ty, what is it? What's following me? And are you alright?'' He looked round to the Source of the scream. ''That was Banshee Ty. He's going to Kill Mathius if i don't hurry. If there's something you can do to keep the creature off me, Do it!'' He Looks at Korvus too, who nods once, and begins to Cut the remaining Hellohounds off off Solara, his New found Blade skills proving to be deadly and Efficient.
Harry smiled at his Son. ''You look older every day son. Such a Handsome Lad.'' He sighed, looking into his son's eyes. ''Death is fine. Heavan is... well, its beautiul. But i'm glad your not there. Though... I expect to see your mother there soon, if i can be honest. She doesn't look like she is taking my passing very well.'' He Sighs again, Still Staring into Neji's eyes. ''I sense you are Troubled. What is it Neji. What Ails you?''

Neji stares at his hands for a moment digesting the information. His mother is going to kill herself. He's seen her in this state before... years ago... When Kor was taken. She had sobbed herself to sleep. The only thing that kept her going was him. Raising him. Would the baby be enough this time, would it keep her going with her beloved husband gone... Only time would tell. Then he looked up at his now old father. No longer young, virl, immortal, but still loving. His voice was soft, "Why me.. I am a terrible choice for captain. You lead them before you became a crosser... mom led people before she married you...why not Ty or Solara?" he says his blue eyes meeting Harry's. As the Neji of reality strikes out at a monster his blade twisting with ease as he begins to help again and jumps his massive light covered wings spreading as he soars towards the fortress his mind still with Harry.
Solara's wings also appear still fairy-like as ever as she lunges at more of the monsters entering minds and forcing them to fight one and other. No longer protecting Neji she bubbles herself using her mental power over her physical abilities.

Harry smiles again. ''No, you are the best choice. Solara, Ty... Both fine soldiers, fine people. But Solara is too Indesicive, adn Ty and Roxa are tainted with rage. Jack is a fine swordsman, but he would reject leadership if it was offered, and Korvus... He's too... Blunt. He isn't creative, unable to see past whatever is in his face. You love a human, for a start. Its brave, and you wethered through critisism for it. You are The Captain Neji. You will do me Proud. Just be Yourself. And I can talk to you like this once a week. Only once a week mind you, so be carefull.''

*Daemon or Nightmare...I can't tell but its stopped and gone after Drakka!* Ty yelled seeing Banshee rise out of the trance. "Damn...never thought I'd have to fight you again..." Ty says lifting his son with the shadows. They both stood, Mathius very unsteady, "Son get out of here..." Ty whispered his eyes glazing black. "No dad this is my fight." Mathius muttered standing in a ready position. Flames and shadows slid from his body as he hummed, changing tone ever so slightly every few seconds, a technique taught to him by Jack to keep concentration.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The daemon, Crell stalked past Jack oblivious to the man and marched towards Drakka, Neji, and Solara. He roared and smiled, "Hello brother..."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gerard stood from his throne, "Time to take the fight into my own hands....I want the controller of the screeching daemon. Bring me Jack." He muttered to Rage. Gerard disappeared into the darkness searching the corridors of his palace a constant stream of sinew and gore following him.

Neji looks at his father, "Why not mom... it might give her something to live for..." he says bluntly although he seems more convinced since he isn't studying his hands as much. He shifts slightly in his chair feeling overwhelmed some what at the sight of his now grey father. The thought of growing old now feels scary to him. He thought his parents would always be there. Then he thinks of Ayowin... she'll never have that problem. She knows her mother is not immortal and is now dead. And him well.... she despises him with every part of her being. He sighs outwardly at that thought returning his gaze to his hands.
As Crell approaches Solara moves in front of him as he smacks into her mental shield her voice shrill and dangerous, "Back off he is under protection of angels." she says her psychic blade at ready.
Midnight has stomped groaning and her eyes are opening as she comes out of the Restalphia and groans once more before moving quickly at the sight of Ty and matty, "This will be fun after all..' she smirks.

(you know, It has to be Jack who kills Banshee right?)
Banshee looked at Mathius. ''I see Little Jack has been teaching you some tricks. Too bad, I know every one of them. They will do you no good here.'' Then he lunged out, lightning fast and closes his hand around mathius, The shadows and flames forming around him rather than doing him any harm. ''Did you Forget what i'm made of Mathius? Did you!'' He slams him into the ground, 9 times over, then tosses him aside like a rag doll. He then draws his Blade, stands ver Mathius and prepares to make the killing blow.
Suddenly, Jack threw his Scythe. It embedded itself in Banshee's leg, making him stagger, the Vital blow instead piercing Mathius's left leg, shattering the bone and causing heavy bleeding. Had the hit made contact, mathius would be body bits and a messy stain. Banshee turns to jack. A Bolt of white Lightning flashes, followed by a deep roll of thunder, Like 500 bass drums being struck almost simultaneously. Banshee took his blade out from Mathius's Leg, and Began to advance on Jack.
''Little Jack, in the flesh. Not hiding anymore? Aww, shame. You were much cuter as a coward. Whats with the barechest look anyway? You loose your shirt? Or did somebody get it soaked?'' BAnshee laughed. ''I can see It in your eyes, Solara, the pathetic angel. She was crying on you wasn't she?'' Banshee was now within Striking Distance of Jack. ''She was Faking it you know. She doesent love you. How could she? Weak little jack, covered in Scars and as cowardly as a rat. You let me take her son. He's in so much pain because of you.'' Jack breathed out. ''Don't... Ever... Call Her PATHETIC!'' He yells, and throws his spear, striking Banshee in the chest. He staggers backwards, Surprised by the strength behind the blow. ''You know nothing about her! Nothing!'' Jack leapt at Banshee, Who blocked his attack, But Jack ame round for anither hit, cutting his abdomen Banshee cursed. ''She's stronger than you know! She's Braver than you know!'' Every sentance strike, Jack makes another Blow at Banshee. These are all Blocked, But banshee is Being Forced Back. ''She's Smart! Beautiful! She listens to eve3rything every has to say and She never jumps to Conclusions! Pathetic? I know whats pathetic here! YOU!'' AS he finishes, Jack strikes Banshee's sword out of his Hand. He then goes on the Assasult, striking him Repeatedly. ''You should have died... Long ago! You should be a rotting husk! You're a pathetic daemon! You scream and hide behind you Curtain of lies! You are Nothing compared to her! NOTHING! '' Banshee is knocked back, falling from the roof He and jack were battling on. Banshee is covered in angry rips. Jack raises his blade, which is struck by lightning. The flash puts pasts of his face into shadow, his eyes illuminated. ''Now you'll die. And never darken this world again!'' With that, Jack jumped down and Impaled Banshee with his Blade.
For Banshee, the Pain was Excruitiating. His every vein set alight with white hot fire, his eyes stung as though 1000 hornets had stung them at once. His scin crawled, his musles atrophied away, and his entire body began to dry up. Cracks started appearing on his form, blazing with blue light. ''How? How coudl you kill me? How... Your a weakling... a Nobody... doomed to die alone... you... you...'' Banshee's continued attempts to speak were halted as his voice died, the cracks appearing on his skin getting larger and Larger. Then at last, his form exploded, chucks of flesh soaring through the sky as a balefull wind that sounded like ten-thousand souls screaming at once. Hellhounds were blown apart by the hurrican of screams, whilst others crushed by the chucks of daemon-flesh. Sections of the fortress were blown to rubble. Gerard himself narrowly aoided being crushed by a falling pillar, knocked form its base by a hand of blazing shadow. All of Banshee;s gifts to Midnight, her strength, power and daemonic knowledge was sapped away. and then it was over.
Jack knelt on one knee, covered in Banhee's blood. His sword was ash and shards of metal, his skin burnt in places. He was breathing Heavily.
--------------------------------------
Harry shook his head again. ''Kes is too old. Not that thats a bad thing, but she isn't as fit for duty as she once was. Neji, this task was appointed to you. You are the only one i belive can do this. You must, for me.''

Ty took advantage of the moment, Mathius was completely down for the count, he wrapped Midnight in a blanket of shadows and tightened them. He the. Turned to Mathius and began working on healing the wounds. "Jack? Someone is coming! I think it's the leader!" Ty yelled after bandaging the wound and pulling Matt next to Midnight. *Solara I'm taking Matty and the girl to our house. I will lock her in the second floor bedroom and throw up some defenses.* Ty said moving both his pale son and the now awake and thrashing Midnight.
-------------------------------
Drakka was doubled over, Crell's presence was raising an ancient presence in Drakka. "Damn, damn.....Aghghghhgghh!" Drakka yelled as his skin boiled to pus and he changed into a large daemon prince. Flys buzzed around him and looked up, eyes now a sickly green. "Come at me brother..." Drakka mumbled to Crell as the two Dawkins began fighting an epic battle.
-------------------------------
Gerard stood from almost being struck by the pillar, he wanted that power. Jack must be consumed for the colony! He thought as he entered the room Ty was leaving and alone sat Jack. Gerards arms quickly changed to blades as he smiled, his face covered in a grin of malice! "Jack....."

Jack sighed, shakened by banshee's deaqth throws and tired from the relentless assault. But he stood anyway. ''Gerard I assume? The oddball leader of this happy little family? I met your Daughter. She was scared of you you know. Right up untill my old friend banshee possessed part of her. Imagine what it must be like now? Banshee's dead, taking away his gifts and her energy to boot. And now she's held by one of the most terrifying men in existance. I wonder, Will she call for you? Or remain silent, fearful of the evil Ba***rd of a father who mistreaded and abused her. Afraid to call for the hep of the man who should be her protector. I know the feeling. My fatehr was an awful man too. Death was the only thing thyat made him say sorry. In his death throes. Now you can say sorry, for everything you've done. And we'll put you in a nce cell, with food, water and a soft bed, and maybe even let you and your daughter see eachother once in a while. Or i'll kill you here. and you can try to atone on your deathbed.''

Midnight does indeed thrash for a time in the shadows writhing like a chicken with no head. Magnus had tortured her like this, a very confined space and a smothered feeling. Her breathing increased speed as she ceased thrashing and began to hyperventilate she could feel sweat beading on her forhead as she felt hot and clammy within the shadows. She feels close to vomiting but her rate of breathing and heart beat are too quick to allow such a thing. She covers her head trying thinking it is all a bad dream. Tears come out the sides of her eyes as she begins to thrash again and scream.
Even with Neji fighting at her back the two are becoming over whelmed. With the two daemons fighting around them it is making it hard to maintain footing as fire and disease and blood smash through buildings like they are legos. The tide of nightmares isn't so effected, they slash at the two angels forcing them closer and closer to the edge of a cliff. Reality morphs and forms to the desires of the nightmares forcing Solara and Neji to play by their own rules. Solara can sense Jack is in trouble and she looks at Neji, "Go help Jack now!" he shakes his head at her,"I cannot you can't hold them off yourself." she points, "Now! I can hold." he stares at her, "Neji if he dies I might as well be history because Jack is my history! Now go." he shakes his head but leaps off his wings spreading as he soars for the room he can sense Jack is in.
Solara for her part kicks off the ground and begins to face the nightmares in the air hoping to split them enough that she can continue to fight them.
As Neji runs through the corridors he comes face to face with Rage and Malevolent. Then his own anger and pride surface as his two flaming blades appear and he lunges at them throwing light at their faces.

Gerard smiles, "Your taunts do not effect me and your weaponless! How do you expect to kill me?" He yells as he moves towards Jack. His feet tread across something, small but thick and puddled. He kneels down low looking at the puddle of blackness. It shifts away from his hulking mass and a figure made of solid blackness appears behind him. "Gotcha (please do not swear)..." The figure mutters pulling him into the shadows.
Moments later Gerard stumbles out and Ty in a whirl of shadows appears. "Stand up Jack..." Ty said holding out a hand as Gerard started to stand. "We have to finish this, I sent 11 clones to help Solara they should be there in a second."
Gerard stood, the darkness that enveloped him, had tried to squeeze the air from his lungs but with a simple arc of lightning he was free. "So now I have the Shade and the Host..." He muttered as his arms turned to normal then back to swords. "Lets go..."
------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Solara danced in the air, 11 portals formed and out walked 11 Ty's. They all stared in marvel at the display before jumping into the fray of battle, shadows ablaze and whirling like liquid death. They cleared out a vast majority but 5 were taken down by a pair of massive "Hydra", multi-tendriled beast with the same transforming power as the other nightmares.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mathius awoke in pain, but saw a group of shadows extending from his legs, one was bandaged, and they led to a writhing ball of shadows. "Who'd the old man stick me with this time." He muttered realizing Ty had used him as a shadow prison...again. He unfurled a small amount and looked upon the face of Midnight, battered and bruised. "Dammit..."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Crell and Drakka, both now full daemons, were tearing each other apart. A passing onlooker would think someone had massacred a large group as the blood and pus pooled in large amounts on the ground. Crell was missing large chunks of flesh as Drakka pinned him to a wall and vomited a massive amount of putrid black acid into Crell's face.

Midnight stares at him and then anger flies across her face like a falcon in the sky. "You!" she says lunging at him slamming him hard into the ground now on top of him her hands around his throat as they twist into place and begin to squeeze , "I'll kill you!" she yells in his face her misdirected rage powerful as he feels his breathe cut off. Her hips squeeze together hard on his stomach as she stops him from kicking her off. "You took it all!" she yells drawing back her hand as it forms into a blade and brings it towards his head fast.
Solara is in poor shape. The nightmares seem to be locking her off from the Ty clones purposefully trying to spill her real blood. Two Hydra's circle her snapping at her sometimes taking real flesh other times missing and losing a head or two. Her blade drives into one as she lunges into the air again only to find two harpys clinging to her and clawing her flesh. The force her into the ground with a crunch. The shadow Ty's are being disposed of with relative ease as another hydra is crunched between dark earth. It crumbles to the ground, and Solara disappears from sight. The last thought Ty and Jack hear before her mental line to the collapses is something like *Oh (please do not swear)!*

Jack is smiling slowly. ''You think I'm weaponless? I knew something like this would happen. I prepared.'' Then he holds out a hand, and Korvus, fighting a nightmare beast nearby, tosses him a Katana. Jack Catches it, then brings it into the attack position. He readys himself to fight.
Suddenly, a burst of blood emits from Gerards chest, like a shower of gore. A massive hole is left, a blow which would have killed any normal human. Through it, Malevolent could be seen, his hand smoking from the spell. ''Curious. You don't have a heart Gerard.''
