Demios frowned as things seemed to be getting worse, he turned to see a group of people in white suits. He had herd Amara and frowned, granted his magic could do various things, but he knew most of his normal spells would be able to be blocked. "Jupiter Thunderclap Zap!" He yelled as he threw a lightning bolt at one of them. Unfortunately his spell was blocked fairly easily. He then looked at Amara who apparently lose control. He decided to try another spell "Mars Snake Fire!" He said shooting a large fire snake at them. Yet again they easily blocked his spell. He looked at Che "I don't think my magic will do much good here" He said.

Che said, pure disappointment dripping from his every word. It was as if an old friend of his had taken his dream...his life's work and twisted it into murdering monstrosity. Oh wait... Once again, the sly grin that usually graced Che's face was now gone. In it's place sat a blank stare and a grimace. The bum meant business now. There were three more humans and now a few Owls were draining in through the back door. Outside there was screaming and following the painful symphony was a deep crunching noise. Che's grimace broke, but only slightly. From the vegatation's wall burst and dark red, three headed dog made of electricity. The humans that were standing in it's path were massacred and thrown about the store immediately. The Skater's hadn't stopped even after the dog bursted through the greens, frying them on the spot. Now smiling toothily, Che snapped his fingers and the dog stood erect. Pointing forward, the new owner of Will's beast said calmly amongst the sound of the rollerblades, "Sick'em boy. Sick all of them."
Amara's attack had done enough to keep a few of the Owls at bay, but where they fell, others simply jumped over and continued. The ******** were they coming from? And Owls? Amara was right. It was either the UNS, or a bunch of likeminded people attacking the best of the best. Either way, they were going to die. Angry Che is angry and they'd soon know this. Will's beast scampered to the attackers like a dog heading towards a bowl of kibble. It's claws burned scratches into the ground as it turned around Che. The Owls it stopped were held down and torn to pieces, but the once that got through came with force. One was screaming, releasing a sonic pulse that had the force of a shockwave and the other came shooting dark brown spines. Che, now frustratedly furious beyond measure wasn't about to have this. Not from members of his own organization...."Demios. See that dog? It's your chariot now kid. Have at it."
~~~
Noel was right somewhat. The top of the house was destroyed, but the bottom was intact. Even at the top there was shelter, but the large gaping hole that was at the end of the hall wasn't going to make hiding easy. ~What the hell is this...it's a serum of some sort. Crap, I hope it's not what I think it is....~ The Life Owl had an idea of what the green syrupy liquid in the darts were. The UNS was growing smarter everyday, but this may be their worst weapon against the Owls yet.
"There's no time! They'll keep coming and they'll kill us if we stand still God!" Thomas said after negating attack after attack that struck him. Like a real cowboy, he was chewing away at the negation that entered his mouth when he took pain. Spitting to the side every few seconds, he returned fire melting down a few of the Owls. It was until a needle-like object struck that he decided to worry about the situation as a whole. His upper body was returned to it's flesh state and so was his gun. Just a simple six shooter now. Death looked up into the crowd with eyes as wide as the desert. "What the hell..." Quickly, he took out the dart, but his powers didn't reactivate. Only his legs remain covered in Negation. His eyes shifted to Noel and Will in slight fear. "I think I see now what Life was talking about...they have weapons...and they hurt. Real bad."

Demios nodded to Che and held his hands out before forming a leash out of magical energy and then climbed onto the animal. He then held his hands out turning the leash into reigns for him to hold onto. He then used the dog to take out more people. "Are you guys almost ready to go?" He asked. He then held his hands out "Well if they are immune to my normal magic lets try this" He said. Suddenly his hands glowed black and an eerie purple. His eyes seemed to glow black and then a ray of energy shot out. When it hit one of the men who was coming at them he turned and began attacking his allies. Demios then looked at Che "All aboard who's coming aboard" He said.

There wasn't many things that fazed Morgan in her state, she had been continuously firing at the oncoming skaters starting to fret about the black ops at the front of the store. the sudden crash however jerked her thought process and she simply stared in wonder at the huge dog of legend she had herd all her life about. "Cereberus!" she breathed watching the dog take to che as if it were his pet, more firing drew her attention again as Demios' shield suddenly became useless and she collapsed among the fallen shelving as bullets and other numerous objects rained her way, sent by humans and owls alike. Bastards work with owls, but what do they really think of their special companions? she thought suddenly angry at the skaters. her side hurt, from what she did not know and she had little time to look as Demios jumped on the giant hell hound and called all others to mount. Breathing hard she knew she just needed a few moments to her self to reach Depression and the mutt before she could consider herself in some kind of safe zone. this was definitely not what i had planned for today she thought to herself as her hand touched a can that had fallen off the shelf, "hairspray!" she said and shivered thinking what could have happened if one of those had been hit, a light bulb went off in her mind and she suddenly threw three of the cans at the raiding party, and explosion occured as one of the bullets ripped through the compressed can and Morgan had barely enough time to scramble for Demios and the dog. "Help me up!" she shouted putting her life in their hands for the time being, she really didn't have much to loose if they did decide not to help her, her mom had already disowned her and her greedy room mate would take charge of all her stuff if she died, that is if the government didn't confiscate it due to her apparent association with these owls. Yeah she sure had been living the life lately.

((If I need to edit, I will later. It's kind of a busy day for me. I only skimmed the posts.)) Cecilia made it down the stairs safely. Yet, before she could join the others, a few more bullets headed towards her. Cecilia's foot caught on a loose floorboard and she fell foreward, landing rather hard. The two consoles, which she had been carrying landed under her "cushioning" her fall. There was a very audible crunching sound. Was that the consoles? She lifted herself up into a sitting position and looked down. Yup, now the Nintendo was in the same condition as the Sega. However, there were more important things to worry about than rescuing a few consoles. Moli would understand. She approached Roulin and the others. It was difficult to run with her injury that hadn't been completely healed yet. "Do you know how many there are?" she asked Roulin over the gunfire. The meeting had ended quite some time ago. A few of those who were at the meeting had dispersed to do something else. Bailey had decided to look at the small knick knacks upon the shelves. Quite a few of them appeared to be antiques. Yet, she did not have much time to admire their beauty beneath all of the dust for she heard what sounded like gunfire and a few crashes upstairs as if the guns sounded. Before she could ask what was happening, she was forced to drop down to the floor as four bullets flew past her, hitting the wall on the other side. Her vectors seemed to want to free themselves in order to defend, but from what she heard from Roulin, some of the guns were more powerful than others. "No, stay put for now," she ordered them firmly.

Meanwhile some of itachis fire creations appeared as well blocking for will so he didnt have to worry about the darts flying into him while vaporixing people. A few also appeared to defend thomas since his negation was not covering his whole body anymore he was now vulnerable to attack and they needed all there people alive for the battles ahead. Itachi himself was inside the house still using his element eye to see through the fire creatures and attack from the safety of the house still. He created one for johan too since he needed something to absorb for some energy. " Johan here absorb that for energy for your ability. " said itachi as his fire creatures began attacking as well those that werent focused on defense. Of course they were created and controlled by itachis ability so they werent near as strong as andersons annoying spirits.

((I apologize for not being online earlier today. I had an emergency pop up with our family dog's health.))
The combined attacks of the shock waves and such managed to shatter the mirror shield Kate had sent up with Athena and Perseus. The Eternity Owl grimaced in annoyance and slight pain. The spirits of Athena and Perseus appeared to cry out in agony, but without sound, before dissipating and returning to the Eternity Realm. Kate forced herself to stay on her feet. She wasn't about to die at the hands of some American soldiers or Owls.
She raised her arm above her head again, this time shouting out: "Eternity: Poseidon! Zeus!" This summon brought forth the two spirits. Zeus' appeared as a huge man floating above in the sky. Poseidon appeared next to his fabled brother in the sky. Immediately after the arrival of the two Greek spirits, large yellowish lightning bolts began descending down upon the attackers. A large gushing wave of water overflowed from underneath the ground of Che's house, but the floor of the house and the area where Kate stood with the hiding team mates remained dry. This wave radiated outwards from Che's house, washing away most attackers in a violent rush of flood waters. The added force of the Zeus' lightning proved massively effective as well.
Kate stood as she was, holding her arm above her head and eyes narrowed. "Damnable Americans...." she growled under her breath.
"By all rights, Anya," Johan said after wandering over towards his daughter. "You should be dead for what happened in Berlin..." Johan murmured under his breath before using his ability to absorb Itachi's sacrificial flame creature. The Mirroring Owl then made his way out of the house to try to help in the battle. He ran towards a group of still advancing soldiers, drawing his sword and then swiftly slicing through them.
Anya noticed Genya hurrying towards her. The Poison Owl narrowed her eyes and scowled. "Stupid kid! Hide or something! You wanna get yourself killed?" she shouted at him as she got to her feet. Most of her injuries were healed enough by Erin that she could quite possibly participate in this battle. The Poison Owl pulled out a gun from her holster on her belt and began firing at some of the soldiers.
Erin had followed her sister's example. Well, as much as she could without getting shot at too much. Even Aeon's shield wouldn't hold up for very long though. She watched as Kate's summoning Poseidon sent out a rush of water to knock soldiers off their feet and drown them. Erin figured she might as well do her part in this battle too. The Artistic Owl closed her eyes and concentrated enough. A few of the soldiers began bleeding out of their eye sockets and out of their ears. They would be dead in a couple of minutes or so. While Erin didn't really like having to kill anyone, it seemed as though this battle was either kill or be killed.

Che had caught another attacker's helmet in the curvature of his foot. The kick the owl had thrown wasn't meant to attack the man anyway. It was meant to catch him. Once Che had his foot planted against the man's neck, he swung his it down sending the operative slamming into the ground. His helmet was smashed to pieces and more than likely, his jaw was broken. "Amara!" Che yelled to the other end of the store as he jumped onto Demios's new pet. "His helmet is broken. Be a dear and do your thing on him will you?" The fatherly smile appeared on the italian's face once more as he issued Amara a finishing tactic. When she was finished with the man, she'd know to hop aboard.
"We might need to hurry. More people may be trying to get in here. They may be carrying those as well." Che pointed down to a dart containing a green liquid. He knew already what it was...the government had tried this bull before. It didn't work then and it won't work now. Reluctantly, Che lifted Morgan onto the sparkling dog and patted her off. "Alright Morgan, if you live through this, I'll consider you an Owl. The Shotty Owl. Sound good?"
~~~
Roulin's eyes remained forward focusing mainly on the hundreds of owls that were heading in their direction, but he could still see Cecilia thanks to his vision. Without looking back, he responed to her, "There are quite a few Cici. Quite a few...it's like they just appeared out of nowhere. Either that, or they've been waiting around here for a long, long time. We might need to leave soon. This isn't a fight we can..." Just as Roulin started to think of cutting his losses, Kate, the Guardian of the Gates, uplifted a massive tidal wave that spread out in all directions. The water was electrified to do more than just remind the other Owls who were the best. Roulin's laugh of joy and success soon faltered to a light chuckle and then a fearful, yet determined stare. The wall, after taking out about twenty of the hundred upon hundreds of Owls, froze in place....
"Woohoo Kate! That's my girl! Haha! Way to--go?" Thomas's demeanor changed when from the ground up, Kate's attack had solidified into a massive...crown of water. This was not good at all. If these Owls were smart, then they'd know that they were now playing a game of basketball. At the center of the hoop were their targets. "Ahh s**t!" lamented the man of Death, "We've got ourselves a situation...no a crisis. We might need to get the ******** out of here while our hides are still on us."

((Other - Genya))
"Ara?" Genya sputtered with wide eyes. "But you are hurt! I can help!" Who else was hurt? The Alchemist Owl was sort of oblivious in this aspect. She looked partially hurt to him, and here she was, firing guns at people. This scene was such a mess. The Alchemist Owl spotted Daryle firing off wind blasts, knocking over a bunch of different stuff. The Japanese had missed Daryle's "attempt" to make friends with their attackers. He then realized something. "Ara? Where is Deeemios?" -----
((UNS - Will - Uh, I'm not sure if I understood how the ice wall is heightwise. ))
The Satan Owl nearly snarled as the fight went on and he continued to rain destruction on their attackers. "Target the f***ing weapons!" Roulin was on to something, and apparently, Thomas had now experienced what the concerning matter was. This was not good. For the Death Owl to be put partially out of commission like that would mean easy takings and captures for the attackers if those green darts hit everyone. Fortunately, the Heat Owl, Itachi, decided to step in to help out instead of acting like a useless deer in headlights. Noel was trying to perform a mass teleport, but the attackers were closing in too fast. Thomas, the man who employed the teleport the most, had even mentioned the pointlessness of the action. There was a brief feeling of slight victory when the electrically charged water suddenly erupted from beneath the foundation of Che's house and swarmed toward the humans and Owls flushing them away, but that changed when the waters froze.
F*ck Will was a bit agitated and a bit worried at this point. If they could hold off enough time, the teleport could work, but.....damn it. He stomped hard on the frozen water, cracking it with some help from his lightning. "Death, stand back. If you're going to fight, aim for the f**king weapons" Clearly, that pretty much meant "You're useless right now. Get out of the way." "Withdraw." The devil was not happy about this turn of events. Will was not one to withdraw so willingly, but he wasn't stupid. How the hell was such a big group of Owls supposed to disappear in the masses? For once, the devil considered drawing on the strength from his own contacts, but they wouldn't get here in time anyway, but if this not-so-little rag tag team of Owls in Che's house could get away, Will was pretty sure he could foot them all with his contacts. The escape part was the first concern though.
With a grunt, the devil launched the cracked ice wall at the attackers and managed to erect an electrical field to attempt to by some time and add another layer of shielding on top of Aeon's shield. For more distractions, the blonde summoned forth more lightning demons to wreck havoc along with those who had submitted to his will in the enemy's masses. He was able to pull this off still with relative ease because he wasn't as tired as the others. At this point, the key was really just creating distractions and avoiding getting hit by those things.

Amara looked at Che and what he had done. When he told her to finish up she smirked. "No problem" she smiled as she closed her eyes and probed the depths of this soldier's mind. She skimmed for information that would be valuable to the team. Once she finished she erased the man's memories. He'd be of no use dead...but then her eyes flared as her dark personality ignited him in a psionic flame burning him alive. Amara regained control and looked in shock. She was not trying to do that.
She then lifted herself up on the sparkling dog and sat behind everyone else. Amara telekineticly lifted the needle and put it in her bag. "They're planning on doing massive dosages of this, into the water systems, air borne, ect" she said shaking her head. "Let's go" she said silently, afraid of what would happen if she had lost it completely.
Noel looked at Will and helped him as well. Damnit if they only had some time the mass teleportation would work. Holding her hands together a sphere was made. It was sparkling white lightning that grew to the size of a beach ball. It soon zipped into the air disappearing into the night sky. The sky then immediately glew white as white lightning rained down upon the enemies like rain, it was that frequent, killing hundreds on impact.

Kojiro groaned slightly, he began to stir a little as he slowly began to wake up, his eyes opened slightly, however they were unfocused, the symbol on his eye was still present, flickering lightly. Amidst his blurry gaze he made a small light, "...Where am I?..." he thought inwardly, the symbol on his unfocused eyes slowly faded away, and the snow began to subside. Kojiro could not make anything out for a second, however his blurry vision began to clear, the first thing he saw were his hands, slightly cut up but nothing even to consider minor. He felt heavy, and ached a little, he sighed, "...It's always the same thing...I reach a breaking point and wind up waking up somewhere else..." he figured hopelessly he noticed he was no longer on the roof, then a small glimmer of hope appeared in his mind,"...could I have been dreaming?" he wondered, he felt bandages on his body, the last time he woke up in someone's care Nat was there,"...Nat?" he mumbled as he looked around in a slight daze, his eyes fell upon a strange figure, he squinted his eyes to get a better look at the stranger,"...Raven?..." he mumbled with a light groan, he was very disoriented for some reason, he was not even sure why, even when he wore himself out before falling asleep, he never felt this fatigued.

((TFP---Serena))
Serena had just stepped back into the main bedroom after leaving it to take a nice hot shower. So she was pleasantly surprised to see the kid stirring.. She shook her head with a small sigh when the boy mumbled two names. He was still disorientated. “No I am not Nat or Raven.” She said in a simple tone that dismissed Kojiro’s guesses without hesitation. “You sure got yourself in a right state.” She proceeded without giving her name. That can wait. “Judging by the amount of injuries you have…I can safely assume that your offence and defence strategies are either lousy or non existent.” These were probably not the kind of words the kid wanted to hear. If anything he needed comforting or gentle reassurance, but he was in the wrong place for both of those things. “Moving along. How are you feeling? Heh, pretty crappy I assume.” She turned her back to him and began to fuss over a jug of water. She poured some of the contents into a glass and mixed in a few strong pain killers.“Here, drink up.”
Serena pulled a chair over to the bed and sat down, she studied the boy with mild interest. Before granting him her name. “My name is Serena.” She said while she played with a strand of hair. Her hair was still dripping from the shower, she had always preferred letting it dry naturally as suppose to burning it with a hairdryer. The woman looked at Kojiro in a serious manner as if sensing the boys confusing she spoke again “We are still in New York, this is no dream, and your friend is still dead. Nothing is going to change those facts. Do you understand?” Serena’s tough love rule remained in tack and wont be breaking anytime soon. “In other words, this is a living hell for you right now. For me? It’s a giant playground.” A bold statement but one that was very true in her eyes.
((UNS---Daryle))
“Retreat?! Really now? Ah, just when I was getting into the swing of things.” The Breezy Owl had heard the command. He had also seen what it was that was they intruders had brought along with them. The green substance that was stored and fired in syringes was not something he nor anyone else in the house wanted to be hit with. Before he moved away from the window, he clapped his hands together and fired out several small tornados, to buy him time to move away from the window safely. From somewhere behind him, Daryle heard a very distinctive Japanese accent.
Daryle rounded on Genya, evidently the Breezy Owl was not in the merriest of moods. His green eyes held no playful sparkle for once. “Do you not understand the words sit, stay and be quiet?! Don‘t worry about Demios, you will be no good to him full of bullets! BAKA!” He was not trying to upset the boy nor to scare him. He was simply trying to make the boy understand that this was a very dangerous situation. “Come on, we need to move away from the window.” He reached out and grabbed Genya by the upper arm before dragging him further into the house to where most of the others were. Taking a deep breath, the blonde looked down and the young Japanese kid “Sorry for shouting at you. Eh….I guess I was a bit shocked to see you walking around so carefree. You have to understand that you were putting yourself in grave danger back there.” Daryle was not a angry person by nature, and the small display with Genya had been one of worry as suppose to annoyance. He would have reacted the same way if it had been his daughter.

Demios looked at the others as the got onto the dog as well. He then looked ahead "Okay, yah!" He said as he used the reigns to make the dog begin to run. They then began to head back towards the house. "Hang on guys this may be a bumpy ride" He said. He hoped the dog would be enough to get them back to the house.

Kojiro looked towards the stranger as she walked into the room, "...What?..." he thought inwardly, as she analyzed his injuries, he looked at the bandages and then back at her,"...Offense? Defense?...I don't ever choose to fight...I have no will to kill somebody with such precision! I never plan for combat...and even so...." he stopped talking as he took the cup, he looked inside and then looked at her,"....I don't want to drink it...." he mumbled, almost in a whine. However his eyes slipped from the cup, as she continued,"...So he really is gone..." he mumbled, suddenly a small pang of anger shot through him, he noticed a drop of water come from her hair and in that same instant, he pointed a finger towards her, freezing the tips of her hair, "...Don't talk about my family like he was some nameless soldier! he was more important to me than you would ever understand!" he whimpered, the symbol was entirely gone from his eye, however the confusion and sadness was clear as day in the distraught expression of the ice user. He flt pain rush right through him, and the heavy sensation did not waver. He listened to her finish as simply looked at her,"....who...who are you?" he wondered.

((TFP---Serena))
Serena shook her head at Kojiro’s opinion about fighting. “And it is that kind of attitude that will get you killed, never mind those who end up fighting to protect you.” She surveyed him carefully before continuing “This is not a game this is a war. And whether you like it or not, you will be expected to fight. Its either kill or be killed. Right now, you are a sitting duck. A hindrance to your precious family.” Her eyes were cold and unwavering. She sighed when he said that he wished not to drink the water. “I couldn’t care less if you don’t wish to drink it. I was only offering you a way to be rid of some of the pain.” She leaned forwards and took the glass away from the Ice user and placed in on the bed side table. “Though, you probably deserve the pain you are feeling. Its your own fault that you feel it.”
A dark smile pulled at the corner of Serena’s lips when Kojiro made the tips of her hair freeze. “Ah…a touchy subject…hmm” She did not linger on that small sentence, there was no need to…in time she will use even more harsher words to provoke him. “Who am I? I am but a wondering soul passing through.” She laughed softly “I am a Owl much like yourself. I came here in hope of living a better life. It was by pure luck that I stumbled upon you up on the roof.” She was not going to reveal the real reason behind her being here, nor that she had been watching him for a while now. Hell, she was sure if she mentioned the Satan Owl he would probably react in a violent way…oh wait, he already said he didn’t like fighting. Such a shame. “Now, I believe it is common courtesy to tell a person your name after they have given theirs.” Serena was not paying any heed to the boys ever so depressing eyes. He needed to learn that she was not about to take him in her arms and comfort him. “Oh, and do unfreeze my hair. It will only be troublesome when I try to brush it“ A simple request, though her expression screamed ‘Do it or I will shave your hair off’
