Jack smiles kindly. ''The Moral is, the good guys always end up better off. And that the truly good ones are the ones who give people chances to atone for what they've done.'' He indicates the portrait on the wall, of the entire warpcrosser family, as well as Mort, thier erstwhile ally and family friend, and Nkarn Fenix, who is standing slightly away from teh group, his face still covered by his massive rebreather. Jack is there too, as well as Banshee, who is present as Jacks shadow. ''I'm part of the family. Joining was the best thing that i ever did- I'm safe from more evil, and i can atone for my own.'' He turns back to her. ''You should join us. You'd be freefrom your monster of a father. And you could have your bear back in reality, not just the one in your mind.''

Rage flinched as the fire and light hit him but they only grazed his tough scaly skin but then when he is slashed from his eye to his jaw something inside him snaps. Rage started grinning and jumped at Neji and starts hitting Neji from a distance with his tentacles but every blow is being deflected by Neji's swords but the blows were pushing him back. Rage was still grinning though because now Neji was now only one step away from falling off the rooftop...

Magnus winced as his wounds healed, scabbing in the black ooze that made up the majority of his form. "Damn you warpfucker, now you'll die!" Magnus roared as sinew tentacles, deadly oozing spikes, and every other nightmarish manner sprouted from his body. A single spike pierced Harry's stomach allowing the tentacles to entrap his arms as if pinned like a scarecrow.
"My father sends a message. He wants you to know that you have a choice, death or allegiance. Any last words?" Magnus chuckles as his blade arm dances around Harry's neck and chest. A blast from Harry's warpfire blinding him and causing to squeeze tighter. "(please do not swear)! I can't see! You'll pay for that!" He yells cutting one of Harry's arms off. "Answer NOW!"
---------------------------------------------------
"I have no issue with Warpcrossers. Begone, find something that will interest me!" The daemon Crell chatters before turning away a shadow cast on the ground revealing a towering spiked behemoth. "If you do not, I will feast on your soul and give your skull to my master."

Midnight looks at him her head cocked slightly, "All familys are (please do not swear) up, some just conceal it better than others." she looks at him clearly not believing his moral at all, "So tell me, what's this one concealing? Got a daemon in the family, I already know your story pretty well." she smiles lightly, "Looking at counter int for my family." she shrugs at him, "Host to a daemon, science expieriments, zombie infection survivors, Hell even the daemon is (please do not swear) up if our info was right and he is the son of Aeris Vaer."Midnight looks at him and shakes her head, "Yeah no I think you guys just put on a pretty white front." she looks at her hands, "Boo.." she murmers for a moment quiet with thought, "Let me have Banshee... you don't want him, I do. I can control him, and I won't use him on anyone not already deserving such a fate." she looks at him knowing he will say no. That will be a minor road bump and she reaches out her hand closing around one of the bars in curiosity at what it will do.
.................................................
Neji is still in terrible pain the only reason he is alive still is firm and perfected training. Even as he is forced off the building his wings spread from his back as he drops several feet. Long enough to let Rage catch his breathe and think he's won before Neji comes soaring back up swinging his fiery blades at him with fresh interest.

The bar heats up, ecoming white hot in seconds, the blessed metal burnong deep into Midnights skin. ''We may have issues, but unlike other familys, we use them as steps to climb abobve them. Others work around them or sit in thier shadows forever. I can give you banshee. We are a part of eachother, so to speak.''
Harry grabs Magus with his other arm, ducking a blade. A white light blooms inside harrys arm, and Magnus can ffel his energy and power being expelled from him ''Purify!'' Shouts harry, and a single bell toll sounded, before magnus was balsted backwards. His energy's almost gone. Harry grimaced. ''Still alive after that? Impressive. But not good enough.'' HE says, moving to finsh the blow.
Malevolent nods. ''As you wish. But I can tell you, Lord Gerard will not be pleased.'' Then he bows, turns and walks away, re-entering the palace in a black flash. ''Lord Gereard, The daemon wishes not to fight with us. He says he has no uarrel with our enemy.''

"Turn around..." Magnus whispers a smile across his face, as Harry turns a large spike projects from the ooze on the ground piercing his chest causing him to cough blood. "You made your choice, now pay for your actions." Magnus chuckles before opening a portal and calling to Rage. "We'll be back! Rage come my comrade!"
Gerard watches as his son collapses, blind and bloodied. "Malevolent, tell the daemon we will give him his brother."

It's said by most story tellers that on that day, on that world the skies turned white with rage, the undying pain of the queen of angels at her husband's death, it's said that all who wear the white eyes and hair of the warpcrossers dropped to their knees to honor the dead benovolent king. Others say that all who were on that world were purified by the sacrifice of the warp crossers and that the wife of light cried tears of the purest water cable of curing any ailment, but those stories... they lied. It wasn't a holy moment, hell it wasn't even pretty. As he fell to the ground spikes through his chest all who saw stopped to stare.
................................
Neji screamed as he dived for the spike trying to slash it, too slow, he knew Kes would have caught it, she would have stopped it, but she wasn't there. He turned in a blind rage, his father as he stared at Magnus his words were filled with hate, "You will die I will murder you!" he screams as they disappear, as all nightmares do when they have scared you. He rushes to his father's side his face bloody and painful, "Dad dad... what am I going to tell her? What are we going to tell the baby?" he stares tears flowing from his face, "Dad come on get up." he yells at him.
..............................
Solara is stunned, she knows how they move, but that isn't what has her in silence "Harry.... Harry wait don't go, we need you, Kes does, the baby she is having needs a father... Harry stay with us." she yells as she hears Banshee's laugh, because she, Solara could have saved him, if she had her healing power. "Kes Harry's..."
.......................................
Midnight screeches in pain pulling her hand back as it burns writhing on the floor in pure pain.
..........................
But now the story must turn to the Queen of angels, because it is she who is most damaged, one does not love for as long as they have, one knows when their partner of eons has passed, and even in her very pregnant state she drops to the floor, remember when I said she cried pure tears, well she did cry, but not holy water, she cried, hard shaking sobs that wrack the body, sobs that come from a place so buried in the soul you can only cry them once in a life. She wanted to believe he would come back and hold her, but she knew he was gone. She sat sobbing and gripping her stomach, unable to even move as she sat heaving as the baby itself responded to the anguish kicking inside, some say the baby itself screamed from within, no one knows if that is true, but I like to think she does know about Dad, knows he would have loved her so much.

Rage grinned as Neji came back but his interest was elsewhere- he was watching Magnus and Harry fighting but surprising himself he was relieved as he ran into the portal to escape the Warpcrossers. He was out of breath as he landed back and now was fearing the punishment he would get from attacking the citizens. Now Rage looked at Magnus and was waiting for him to tell Gerard of his attack...

Harry fell to his knees, Barely registering the voices around him. His vision swam, his head burnt, and his Body shook in oain. ''Neji... Neji... My son... I'm sorry you had to be here to watch me die. I... I have no regrets though. Not one. Even your choices, you made them and.... And...'' He stopped, coughing, spitting blood. ''And I'm so... so very proud. I'm leaving everything to you. You must... Must take my place as high captain... Take my sword...'' He weakly takes up his blade and presses it into Neji's hand. ''And tell your new brother... I'm still watching him. I will always be watching you. All of you. You'll see...'' Harry stood, shakily and slowly, staggering bacwards a bit, but pusing all aid away. Then he hel dout his arm one last time. ''Neji... Solara... Jack... Korvus... Ty... Mathius... Kes... Even my unborn... I love you all so very much. Goodbye.'' Then the white raven landed on his arm, and harrys body burnt into white light, Breaking away and fading, yet still blazing liek a sun. Then it was over, and Al that remained was a white Raven, Which looked at Neji and cawed, which sounded liek a word. It repeated itself, clearer this time, staring into Neji's eyes.
''Captain?''

As Harry collapsed, Ty's shadows fizzled for the first time since his awakening. Mathius released his own shadows and sat next to Ty crying. "Dammit..." Ty muttered standing up, *Solara, I'm gonna find the plague bearer. Get everyone else out of here.* Ty wrapped himself in shadows to look like a common street punk.

Neji stares at his father blood and tears rolling down his face as the blade is forced into his hand, "Dad. I love you. We all do."then Harry disappears and the raven lands before him cocking it's head, "No I can't... I failed the order when I was with the human... I didn't raise my daughter." he is choking as Solara moves from a portal *Neji stand up, look strong, we can discuss the captain business later. Right now they need you to be strong.* she stares at him moving to her son hugging him, "Shhh... it's okay. Come on." she slowly begins to help him to his feet, "Shh..." she says kissing his head leading his sobbing form towards the portal as Neji stands offering his arm for the raven to hop onto as they leave the accursed world. Solara slowly leads Matty towards his room still holding him as she looks him over, "Look you wanted in the world of adults. This is it, you make your own choices and people die..." she looks at her son smiling a very sad face, "Now pull yourself together because you cannot imagine what Korvus, Kes, and Neji are going through right now." she hugs him again.
Neji stands shaking, "No I am not the best one for this job, I am too slow, Korvus would be better." he looks at the bird, "Tell Dad he would be better."

Ty flashes in front of Neji, a look of rage upon his face. He grabs the boy in a shadow clawed hand and begins shouting, "Look you sniveling pile of grox shot!" Roxa's voice rings out through Ty, " Your father and me went through a lot together! I owe him my life and you are not going to disgrace his name! You will be captain or I will kill you myself and take your body as a vessel for my mind to lead them myself!"

The raven leaps from Neji's arm and Knocks Roxa back. It caws, the rasping sound ringing out with psychic power. ''No. Neji!'' It caws again. ''Neji... Captain!''
Jack stares at the painting of the warpcrossers, Harrys likeness fading. Neji's too, but it re-appears where Harry's had been. The White ravens eyes change, to harrys pale blue colour, rather than the usual yellow it had been. Jack stares in Disbelief. ''Harry... He's gone...''
Korvus staggers back into the room. ''He cant be! No no no no no! No he's not dead! someone tell me It's not true!'' He smashes a glass, laying on the side, pulling his hair.

Neji turns glowering at Ty a stare meant for Roxa as he reaches out to hug his brother, "Kor I'm sorry he is...Magnus killed him."he says softly blood trickling down his cheek where his skin is slowly beginning to reform, "we need to find mom right away." he says softly to his twin, "right now." He turns to face Ty, "Roxa shut your hole, you would be in my state too if your oh so precious TY or Matty were dead. I do not disgrace this title anymore than the man who tried to murder the universe with shadows could." he glowers as he sheethes his father's blade, "The next time you disrespect my pain or my choices you'll find just what my anger looks like." he turns back to his brother opening a portal to Kes with a newfound ease.

The White Raven Hops Onto Neji's shoulder, Still glaring at Roxa with Harry's eyes. The look seems to say 'Try that again, and I'll make you suffer.'' Then it cawed ''Captain. My Name?''
Korvus shook away his tears then took up his sniper rifle. ''I'm going to Kill Him for that. I'm going to burn his insides out and then put a bullet through whatevers left of him. I'm going to... to...''He punched clean through a wooden door- His bedroom door, and the he followed his brother through, pulling his helmet on so no-one could see his tears.
