(( No everyone is still there, all Lust did was make him see what she wanted him to, like using an illusion.And to answer your other qustion yes the nine circles of Hell were visualized by Dante Alligheri, he wrote Inferno which was the basis for the catholic version of Hell. ))
Anderson felt his body slowl being lifted off the ground. He gasped and reached out to grab the ground but he was to far off to do anything. " No Put me down! I don't want to leave! " He tried futily to grab at the ground. " No! Dante! We can't leave him he needs ou help dammit! " He shouted. He couldn't stand to see his father like this he didn't know his cousin Roulin was dead, whichmeant he had no idea why his father was like this. Anderson just had a terrible feeling his father wasn't coming back from this one. " he's the best,he'll be fine he can't lose not now, he's never lost. " These were the only comforting words he could think of to help himself.

Nova was about to jump in when Aaliyah stoped her attack and went to benkei's side. A good place considering his status as the sheild owl and all. " I know its hard but raven and koj both woulf not want any of us dieing pointlessly they would never forgive themselves if we did and the satan owl and the UNS leader are both amped up right now by the feel of them we dont stand a chance as things stand but things never stay the same. We can regroup at the closeest secure building by which i mean its not going to tumble to the ground and plan out our next move and the chain of command for while raven is gone. We will need a temp leader to stand in while raven is away to get anything done properly." said nova as he began to withdraw from the battlefeild himself now.
Itachi cursed again as he widened the barrior so he could get close enough for will to hear him despite what was going on. Of course he was very annoyed with will basically kidnapping raven and kojiro as it seemed beneath the UNS team and any of the teams for that matter considering how the presidents capture went over with everyone. It seemed foolish to incite war with TFP when the heralds were acting like this and dante and thomas as well. " Hey will we need some orders things are getting a little crazy as you well know. what do we do about the heralds and the earth herald we captured any bright ideas we could use?" asked itachi loud enough for will to hear and get his attention somwhat.

Thomas's vision began to blur when Lust neared him. Thanks to his own ability though, the illusion didn't manifest. Instead, his vision remained flickering between what she wanted him to see and what he did see in reality. "Just like being in one o' those joke haunted houses. You're gonna have to try harder than that to take me out son. Way harder." Once Minos's tentacles put the bind on him, Thomas inky body simply melded through eating away at the demon's arms. Finally, to escape the column of fire that was encircling him, he enlarged the area of his hat's brim. It covered his body, but after passing through the Hellfire, his hat was no more. As the darkened cinders of his dark hat flitted to the ground, Thomas cursed. "s**t. I really liked that hat..." The Death Owl was now on the offensive. He punched once and a rose-shaped blast of negation was sent traveling briskly to Dante. Behind it, he spat. The second attack was completely hidden due to the size of the previous attack. Even that small amount was enough to kill anyone it came into contact with. Because it wasn't much though, it would have to expand slowly bringing with it pain unimaginable.
~~~
"Ha! It's Aaliyah!" Moli exclaimed in suprise. Even though she was on the other team, he was still happy to see her. There was no one that could've gotten them to safety except for her and Amara and Moli somewhat feared Amara. "The only thing we can do now is watch...I'd rather sit this one on the sidelines anyway....."
~~~
Timothy stood his ground watching Aaliyah and Will duke it out while Thomas edged closer to Dante. The Herald nodded to himself just as a smile overcame his lips. His intention from the start was to do just this. Create confusion and take down each leader one by one. Thomas had succeeded in stopping Raven. Timothy still needed her dead, but that would wait. He had a knew plan. A new mode of operation. The metal covering his body dripped off of him into a puddle of dark grey soup. He formed it into a disc and placed it beneath Sabrina who seemed to be out of it at the moment. ~The game has changed now and we're going to play by their rules. I'll see you all back at the sanctuary.~ Timothy and Sabrina vanished in an electrified flash of light that disabled most of not all of the lights in the area. As the sun set and the battles ensued, people that ran and hid began to come out once again to witness the tide turning battle. Even without knowledge of the events beforehand, the people were sure that if Dante lost to Thomas, the world would definently change.

L showeved his hands into his pockets and looked up at the two power houses going at it. Dante was strong yes...but angry and not allowed the full potential of the Satan OWL with Will still living. Couple that with Thomas recently having left his little haven all nice and reviatlized, L could do little more than sigh. If things began looking too bad he'd step in, but really with the light fading he could do little more than stall.
When Timothy spoke again he looked to his fellow Herald with a blank emotion. They were at odds now...but L truly hadnt stepped in his way yet only declared his intention to. After running a hand back through his hair he spoke to Sydney. "Things really haave become quite a messs...haven't they..." Looking to Will he wondered what the current Satan planned to do. Thomas killing Dante would be an awful thing...and the man still held two of the youths with him.
(since I really cant think of much other than a one line post for FLo right now, just assume he followed Benkei...sorry sweatdrop )

((UNS - Will - Long post warning. Sorry. sweatdrop ))
What a f***ing crybaby, Satan thought dismissively as he heard Anderson yell out and waited for Noel’s response to his explanation of the Great Four murder loophole and Roulin’s death. Maybe she would blame him for what happened and what was happening now, but Roulin was dead, and there was nothing to be done about that, and this fight was now happening whether they liked it or not. What an attachment he has to Virgils. How could he possibly help? Die? He sounds like Dante and Che when Noel and I dragged them apart while they were screaming “Let me at him! Lemme at him!” and fighting back in the day. Will didn’t know that Anderson was actually Dante’s son.
Will heard Itachi loud and clear. He wasn’t going to hand Kojiro and Raven over to Itachi for obvious reasons. A fight between the Fallen Phoenix and the UNS members would be imminent if he did, and frankly, the end result of that would probably just be him zapping them all to get them further away than they already were and taking Raven and Kojiro’s bodies back. So, Satan would stay where he was, a good distance away from the others and within the chaos. The Satan Owl scoffed in his mind. Orders. Always asking for orders like lost lambs or baby toddlers who had no brains. No independence or judgment. If the UNS were a bit more like Will’s establishments, they wouldn’t have to worry about anything. Then again, the UNS members weren’t exactly as experienced as Will’s “employees” when it came to most matters on making decisions. The lifestyle wasn’t exactly the same, but there were similarities, even with one connected to the underworld and the other an “official” organization.
Will’s ideology obviously differed from Itachi’s, and he never wasted any time thinking about the logic. To Will, the president’s capture was not a dirty move. It was a necessary move by Raven to get what she wanted. The UNS keeping Raven and Kojiro was not dirty either. The Fallen Phoenix members were simply “prisoners of war,” “enemies” captured in battle. A fact of life.
Then, there was Sabrina. Will couldn’t possibly allow Thomas to take her, and an excuse of interrogation could delay Thomas, but Will already knew everything he had to know…basically anyway, from Timothy’s outbursts. Thomas didn’t know that though, and Thomas would only relish Timothy’s words because he wanted the Heralds to come to him so he could kill them, and Will couldn’t have that. ”Why are you still here, Itachi? I told you all to get a safe distance from here. All of you Owls. Hmph.” Satan didn’t even give Itachi compliment on the UNS taking down Sabrina… not that Itachi had a part in it anyway. Well, what would be the better gig? Kill her or free her and manipulate her all the way. Or convince her. Decisions. Decisions. Decisions. But then, he noticed the flash of blue lightning and the sudden disappearance of all electrical light sources that had still been operating in the mess. The Earth Herald Sabrina was gone. Thanks again, Timmy. At least she’s safe from Thomas for now, but I know you won’t just leave everything the way it is. “Forget the Herald. She’s gone. Any other questions, weasel?”
And then, there was also the matter of Lucien being the next Death Owl. If Lucien didn’t know, but Thomas found out, the Death Owl could potentially use Lucien to help him kill off the Heralds and then kill Lucien…or just flat out kill him, but Will didn’t think Thomas would just flat out kill Lucien. If Lucien knew and Thomas didn’t, well… then it was possible Lucien might try to kill Thomas after Thomas’s usefulness expired. If they both knew, that could result in either of the aforementioned possibilities and yet other ones. Who was going to “train” the new Death Owl and make sure he didn’t go astray like Thomas? That was another matter.
The power imbalance between the teams was shifting again with current events such as Raven being taken away as the leader from the Fallen Phoenix, Roulin Life Owl being temporarily dead, and potential other casualties…if Dante died. Unfortunately, it was entirely possible that the Night Owls and Fallen Phoenix would likely be easier targets or dismissed aside as bugs… hopefully, that could work for those teams though, the latter part anyway. Sydney’s right. With all this f***ing drama, it does throw everything on the dangerous path toward instability, but damn it. We’re trying to fix that now in the most unobvious way possible because no one is working as a team, and we’re all trying to sabotage each other. Lovely. I wouldn’t have it any other way. Makes it all the easier for me. In addition, the new God Owl had yet to be revealed. This was going to be one long haul before Noel and he could officially pass on their titles, and that sure as hell wasn’t happening before Thomas was dead and the new Owls were trained.
Satan smirked as he looked down at Raven and Kojiro’s “peaceful” bodies and then around him. Ah, sweet chaos... But his smirk lessened slightly as he picked out Thomas’s figure and the Negation headed toward Dante as Thomas broke through. Even if the lights in the area had shorted out, it really didn’t seem to have much of an effect. The flames from hell were bright enough to light enough and leave ominous shadows of some of the Owls in the area. You will live, Dante. You MUST live… outsmart that a**hole. I can’t just stand by like this. If I only didn't have these two f**king dead weights to hold on to... Will's thoughts were aligned with L's, and it wasn't as if they were communicating about it.
Satan basically telepathically yelled to Dante's mind. ~Dante Virgils, for your own, Che, Felicia, AND Roulin’s sake, CLEAR your f***ing mind and put up some defenses NOW, you sh**ty successor of a Tattered Owl!!!! LIVE! You are NOT dying here! Do you hear me? Put up that damn defense and clear your mind! Get the f*** away from Thomas!~ Meanwhile, Satan was very quickly improvising some possible plan if Dante didn't respond to that "yell." Will didn't yell that often, and hopefully, it would help break Dante's current mentality...and what he yelled wasn't exactly common out of Satan's mouth. It wasn't like Will at all. Perhaps, he was being melodramatic on purpose.

As his attacks were thwarted one by one Dante grunted. When his Hellfire was reduced to nothing he was mildly stunned, in his rage he couldn't thin of what to do next. His mind went blank as the negation energy flooded towards him. Suddenly a voice pierced his rage and shot him back into reality. His eyes widened and focused as Will's voice filled his head.
He returned to the fight and quickly leapt to the side the negation energy flooded past him but consumed his right arm from the elbow down and his leg from the lower thigh down. A thunderous yell escaped from his mouth as his arm from the elbow down suddenly fell off and decomposed and his leg detatched itself and fell off. He quickly slashed off his arm and leg to prevent the negation fro mspreading up his body with his iron claws his bleeding shoulder dripped from a constant flow to soft drippings his leg equally as mangled. He gasped for air inhaling and exhaling deeply. He grunted at the pain but luckily the negation was over. With the massive spike in pain and Will's words Dante had returned from his madness and regained his composure. However was it to late for him to regain control of the fight?
He had lost vast amounts of blood from his wounds. He could feel his architech seals fading as his body returned to normal. Soon his eight summons were retracted back to their circles of Hell, now that Dante had used up his energy with his angered attacks he was drained. He wobbled a bit before falling backwards. He landed in a slightly reclined position resting on a charred piece of concrete. Breathing heavy as his shoulder stub bled over his body, his leg stub bleeding over the ground. He smiled and coughed up blood. His vision was getting blurry. " Sorry Will, I guess in the end all I was was the Tattered Owl, not the Satan Owl. " He sighed and placed his remaining arm over his waist. " Noel, Will......Don't let that son of a b**** win.....I lost control, Roulin's death, I suppose it was like reliving my own son's demise I suppose my memorial attatchments were my ultimate demise. I was to blinded by what I had done to see that they were hindering me. "
His eyes suddenly focused and black energy shot from his dismembered leg and arm as his eyes suddenly became black. " Remember what I told you Thomas, Death is only scary once, you may have an advantage in thie world, but just wait until youi enter my domain, I will go ahead and reserve a special place for you in Hell, next to Lucifer himself. " He said before he coughed up a spray of blood again his eyes returned to normal and the energy stopped flowing.
He leaned back against the hot concrete and closed his eyes. " Everyone......Stay strong, don't ever underestimate your enemies, never stop believing brighter times will come, from here on out you're all on your own. I couldn't be prouder of all of you, my generation couldn't stop this war from happening, but yours can you are all the best of the best, now make me proud and live to the fullest......stop Thomas......End this cycle of hatred " His words grew softer and softer until they were only a whisper.
Dante closed his eyes as his blood over filled the concrete slab and dripped over down onto the ground nearly ten feet below. He opened his eyes once more, staring straight at Thomas, no longer with eyes of anger or coldness, but of pity, he pitied Thomas because he would never know this, the feeling of accomplishment that he felt, he had crafted the best owls, he knew that they would struggle but they would finish what Che and he started all those years ago. he could see soft silouhettes of Che, Felicia, Giovanni, his mother and father, and even Rochelle all the people that had passed before him, he knew that this was his time his reign as the successor to the Satan Owl was done, he had no regrets.

Noel had nothing else to say, even if she did, she couldn't believe what had just happened. It seemed that the world had just stopped. Her student...her student she had trained since he was a teenager had just died....she...she couldn't help but feel she was failure..."it..it's...my fault...." she said trailing off. She said nothing as she closed her eyes saying a prayer for Dante. She then turned around as a jet appeared. "Night OWLs....we are leaving" she told the rest who were still on the team. "Moli...Aeon...and anyone else who considers themself apart of this team let's move....NOW!!!" she said assertively. It seemed as if her whole disposition had changed, she would never lose another life to this war...not again...Will this plan better be fool proof or I will personally have Thomas' head and your nuts in my hand she projected to him.
Aeon looked at Moli's expression. "Hmmm" she said not saying anything else as she looked as the battle commenced. She couldn't believe it...he just died like that...all of that power...and he still died. When Noel spoke she looked at Moli..."...I'm guessing...that's our cue" she said referring to Noel's tone. "Let's go..." she said as she began to head that way with Demi in her arms.
As her body was being lifted away, Sabrina couldn't help but feel a feeling of defeat and weakness. She began to gain some feeling in her body as she looked up at Timothy. "Damnit...they have my bracelet..." she muttered as she closed her eyes.
Amara looked in shock as her eyes widened. Did Dante just die??? He was one of the most powerful OWLs she knew and he was just dead...Thomas has to be eliminated...and soon she thought to herself. She would meet with Anya and Amaya soon...and maybe even include Will in this as well.
Aaliyah agreed with Nova. "Yes...you're right...let's go" she said to him and Benkei and Nat. "I suggest we leave the country...it's too dangerous here..." she said as she began to proceed to leave.
Vincent looked at the battle as he sat and their and watched. This was the first death he had ever seen as tears filled his eyes. He was too young to comprahend everything at that exact moment...he just sat their in a silence.
Noel sat on the jet as she looked over Paris...it was a waste land. As promised she would rebuild it. The ground became in tact...the Eiffel Tower began to appear slowly and all of the debris disappeared. This would never happen again..not on her watch...

Nova noded slowly as he used the metal in the area to create a platofrm of sorts for his team to stand on. " Alright all of us FP get on this platfomr i'll teleport us to Egpyt it shouyld be safe enouh there to regroup and i doubt the other teams are anywhere near there as well. Unless you can think of somewhere else we should go then be my geust and mention it now. Just say the place and were be there in a moment." said nova as he closed his eyes and focused on his magic as a magic symbol appeared over the large metal platform he made.
Itachi was rather surprised with what he saw. Was dante the leader of the night owls really dead? with him and raven now gone it seemed there UNS team had a massive advantage right now and unless things changed it seemed they would be winning this war. Still as long as thomas was around he doubted anyone truely won besides him and it left a bitter taste in his mouth as he turned to follow after the other UNS members to regroup with them all. He tried to ignore wills annoying comments and knew that he had little experience making his own choices as he had been commanded by others his whole life.
Zane saw what happened and was quite sad about it. there leader was as good as dead if not dead already. He had been forced to stay quite far back to avoid the heats effects and turned to sand as he reofrmed on the jet taking a seat and waiting for the others as he figured that noel would likely be taking over as leader if dante didnt reutrn. It was only natural considering her status as god owl and all.

Thomas's radiant white eyes followed Dante from the sky to the ground. His attacks had landed and their job was now done. The dying Owls words didn't scare the owl of Death. No. Instead, they somewhat empowered him. It was the many that he left behind that sort of terrified him. 'I crafted some of the finest Owls.' That bit was true and couldn't be proved otherwise. Every Owl that was ever under Dante's wing came out to be something far greater than just a U.N.S leader. Still, he was the mastermind of that. He was now dead. Each Owl would now just be another Owl. No more, no less. Thomas's signature grin began to extend more before his serpentine tongue lapped his forest of teeth.
While Thomas didn't like Dante, he did have a grudging respect for him. That was the only thing keeping him from spitting on him right then. "You know Dante, you were always a wonder to me. I don't know what strategy you employed, but you always managed to outlive even the best of us. I guess it was your patience. In the next life son, don't let your weakness be your breaking point." With those parting words, Thomas turned and looked at Will. Noel's jet was leaving. He wanted to attack it, but he knew Dante's death was enough for today. Progress was made. They had Raven. They had Kojiro. Roulin was dead. "Leave his body here. As much as I like the smell of death, Dante needs to take a break." He quipped in reference to Dante's reclining posture. "Let him rest. As for us, I think a nice big dinner is in order. Who's with me huh?"
~And just like that, Dante, your precious successor is no more. You know the next person on my menu is you Will? Or should I keep my promise and kill Noel while making you watch? Your choice my dear friend.~
~~~
Moli's eyes widened to the size quarters when Dante was struck by Thomas's brutally lethal attack. His jaw dropped heavily and if it were any heavier, it'd be on the ground. "Oh my god....no...." His clinched fists began to glow a bright orange. It was only until Noel's soothing yet commanding voice crossed his ears. He walked onto the jet, his eyes still attached to the shattering scene before him. Che wasn't strong enough. Roulin wasn't strong enough. Apparently Dante wasn't strong enough either. There was only Noel, himself, Zane and Demios now. "Aeon...my uncle...my brother...they just..." Once on the jet, Moli fell into his seat at the midway of the jet and his eyes glared forward. If he could blast beams from his eyes, the entire front half of the jet would be gone.

((UNS - Will - Armand, Amaya, and Benkei will come in the next post.))
((How old is Thomas exactly? I need an estimate to make certain comments for Will.))
Too late. Will was too late. The "yell" had worked, but it was too late. And now there was another matter to shove on the plate. A new Satan Owl. Yeah, sure, Dante. You died before I did. What a promise you broke. Well, rest in peace, Tattered. I did see you as a legitimate successor, you know… don’t worry, we’ll kick the s***t out of old Tom and send him off to a gratis vacation in hell. Will wasn’t particularly pleased with the outcome, but there was nothing to be done about it, and he couldn’t let it effect him. He was definitely not happy though, but he wouldn’t show it. As he looked down at Dante’s body, the Satan Owl smirked, and Thomas would be able to see this smirk, but it could be misleading what he was smirking at. ”What a pity, Dante,” he said sarcastically. “You still couldn’t prove yourself in the end. An utter disappointment.” Was the God Owl now more willing to enter into the realm of violence? Perfect. Unfortunately, that could also make her more predictable. He knew how she felt because he had gone through a similar experience with Che, but he had been more composed and he hadn’t seen Che die in front of him. The difference in personality made a difference too. ~Have some faith, Noel dear.~ He simply projected back to her sarcastically. He would have to tell her about Lucien being the new Death Owl at a later time when she was more equipped to deal with that news.
Satan laughed seemingly in delight as he looked around to those remaining, meeting the Light Herald’s eyes for a moment before passing on. And hopefully, Itachi had watched carefully and learned something from the events of today. Hopefully, that was the case for the others who had observed. ”Let’s go, Thomas,” he chided, seemingly agreeing with the UNS leader’s spoken words, as Paris rebuilt itself courtesy of Noel. “And bid Paris au revoir.”
~ Tommy, I should thank you. You’ve evened it between Noel and I. Now, I can drag her to hell as she cries over her student, and I’ll just savor it. Dante was lacking a bit in that department, but I’m sure you had fun, and you got your sweet revenge on the man who supposedly killed you so many years ago…Oh, seems you lost something though. Need a new hat?~ The Satan Owl dropped down to the ground and reverted back to his human form, still carrying Kojiro and Raven. He nodded toward Paris rebuilding itself. ~Leave Noel be. She has her uses, at least until you have the world.~ Inside his mind, Will tempered himself before he spoke the next words to Thomas through their link. This was necessary, and because Dante had died, Will had to make the illusion of sacrifice. It would seem to Thomas that Will spoke with a sort of defeated tone. Will spoke in a way that didn’t make the defeated tone obvious, but for Thomas’s current mentality, it was subtle enough that the Death Owl would notice. But that defeated tone was coupled with a sarcastic “I know more than you do” tone, and “don’t think you’ll get that far without me” tone. ~You are the UNS Commander, and I, the Devil, am a mere soldier…~ The words were loaded, and Thomas could take it however he liked. That defeated tone was there, but Will knew what he was doing. He was Satan after all, and those who crossed him always had “it” coming to them.

L stood watching paris rebuild itself. Will had stepped in to actually save someone which was...somewhat uncharacteristic of him. Though given it was his succesor it wasnt all to surprising. Still, it wasnt enough, and now Dante lay at rest, and Noel was thouroughly pissed. Thomas had won the day, but the short look he had gotten from Will told L that the Devil man was planning something. What it was at this point, the light man could only guess but given that Timmothy and Thomas were both upsetting the balance completely L had to hope Will's plan would resolve this. L walked before the Tattered Owl and gave a nod in respect. While never being on good terms with him, it was only right to pay his respect. "Daamn kid... causin alll this trouble then goin to rest before us...well I guess you earned a break..." With a sigh he turned a gave a short wave over his shoulder. "See ya around Dante Virgils..."
The look L gave Will as he passed by said all he needed to. Something along the lines of "I hope you have a damn good plan because as of now we're screwed." After that L vanished, heading off to his own little sanctuary to work out a new plan.

((wow.... just wow... I am so behind right now. I had something planned for Owen, but I think I may have missed my chance to bring him back to the surface so to speak. lol sweatdrop I'll go ahead and post quick reactions for each of my characters then. It might take me a while to edit them all in though.))
((Fallen Pheonix: Owen
Question for Mahareshi: is Roulin's body still down in Death's sanctuary underground? If so, I might just have Owen stay with him when he wakes up. But it is entirely up to you.))
((UNS: Anya))
Everything was happening so fast that Anya didn't really have too much time to take it all in. First the Heralds started fighting with each other, then Thomas came back, Dante got pissed off at the Death Owl and the two of them started fighting. This resulted in Dante getting killed. Not that Anya really cared as she had next to no interaction with Dante personally anyway. But it was still shocking to see someone with as much power as Dante get killed so easily by Thomas. That's when Amaya tugged on the Poison Owl's sleeve, jolting Anya out of her stupor of shock. Anya turned her head to look at Amaya. "Uh... Yeah. We should go." she agreed begrudgingly. Anya hated to admit it, but Will was right when he said that they should get out of the area as soon as possible. It was then that Amara's telekenetic powers lifted Anya, Amara, and Vincent off of the ground. This caused Anya to lose her balance as she had not been really expecting it. Anya then returned to her old self and scowled over at Amara. "It's about time, Amara!" Anya said aloud, commenting about how late Amara had come to their rescue.
Before she could get any sort of reaction out of Amara, Thomas asked if any of them were hungry. "What the f***ing hell, Thomas!? Do think any one of us besides you feels like even looking, let alone thinking about food right now?! If you do think so, then you're a damn f***ing idiot!"
===
((Heralds: Sydney))
Sydney remained levitating where she was as a now full-blown argument between L, Tim, and Ember ensued. For once, her annoyance with how everything was going showed on her face with a slight scowl. "Enough!" She finally shouted, her voice echoing in a rather dark and scary manner. "Why keep cleaning up these messes, Ember, as you call them, if you're tired of dealing with it all!? Why not just sit back and let the world fall apart at its own hands?!" she shouted at the Fire Herald. If it was one thing Sydney did not like about Ember was the fact that she was hypocritical in a sense. Ember believed that Fire as an element should not be confined, and yet Ember was confining herself to Tim's orders and agenda. "We are not being slaves to these people, Timothy. We are are trying to save their lives."
The Darkness Herald then watched as Timothy teleported himself and Sabrina away from Paris and back to the Heralds' shared sanctuary. As things stood now, Sydney agreed with L's standpoint on what actions should and should not be taken. She did agree that Thomas did need to be destroyed, but all of the great four? Was that really as necessary as Tim made it sound? The mere fact that all of the Great Four were alive and well meant that the balance was intact. Tim and Thomas messing everything up and trying to kill everyone was what was upsetting that balance. It was rather ironic how even though Thomas was the Death Owl, he seemed to be afraid of his own death.
However, before Sydney could really think up her next move, Thomas and Dante were fighting. Hearing L's opinion on the matter, she turned to glance at the Light Herald. "Dammit, Gaeta. This is exactly what Timothy wanted to happen! He wanted confusion and chaos to occur so that the great four would annihilate each other without us really having to anything. Syd replied, not realizing that she was actually snapping at L at this point. It was mostly out of her frustrating confrontation with Timothy though, and not L's fault.
It wasn't very long before Dante was struck with a fatal blow. The shock was enough to knock Sydney for a loop (so to speak) and bring her back to her normal self. Albeit with a slightly surprised look on her face as her shocked gaze watched Dante fall to the ground. When she realized what her face must look like to those watching her, Sydney's mask of emotionlessness returned and she looked away from Dante's now lifeless body and off into the distance. She did hear what L said to Dante as the Tattered Owl died though, but said nothing in response to that. But when L vanished, Sydney floated down to the ground to land silently next to Dante's body and looked down at it for one final moment, not saying a word out loud. However, she did whisper a short prayer of her people to a deity that did not exist anymore, just to wish the Tattered Owl a safe journey into the afterlife. With that, the Darkness Owl then turned away from the now-rebuilt Eiffel Tower and melted down into her own shadow to put herself into a sanctuary of her own to calm herself down.

Dante's body lie motionless his eyes cloudy and fogged over now that his heart had stopped the bloodflow ceased. Yet his eyes remained fixed where Thomas use to be, and his mouth was curled into a soft smile. His hand that he had placed over his lap was gripping a small photo a picture of the Night Owls that he had taken every year they were all so happy, he knew that they could do what he and Che couldn't and now like the others had said after 700 years it was his time to rest.
Anderson who had been taken inside of the jet (Just going to assume Amara did that.) He sat slouched in his seat his hair falling over his face, he didn't speak, what could he say? His father had died thinking that he was dead and he had lost his chance to do anything. He felt a small tear fall from his face it fell gently into his lap. He clenched his hands into fists and looked up his eyes swirled with emotions. He shook his head, he couldn't lose focus, not now. He looked up at Noel and opened his mouth to speak. " What now? Where do we go? Dante provided us our home, money, transportation, everything. What do we do now that he's gone?" In fact Dante had left the rest of his estate and money to the Night Owls in his will, he knew that this day would come and he couldn't leave them with nothing, even after Death Dante had a plan to help.
Sibal leapt through the air landing near the UNS.
" Target: Dante Virgils
Threat: Maximum
Status: Deceased
Mission 10023 complete, awaiting further orders. " His robotic voice remained unmoved as he folded his four arms and waited for Thomas to say something.

((Gees this is Epic, I could totally see this an anime, oh and Brandon read this post carefully, prelude to what we talked about a while back if you still want to use it in this one or the next one)) Aeon looked at Moli as she felt bad for him. She felt the same way when her parents died...even though they weren't dead...she believed they were. She then embraced Moli. "I'm so sorry Moli" she said trying to comfort him. She wouldn't say things would be better because she honestly didn't know what was to come. She looked at everyone else...they looked so hurt....what if there was world with no OWLs then none of this would even take place. A place where everyone's hearts desire would surface, normal lives, acceptance...she could only dream....
Noel had to compose herself she was now in charge as the jet began to take off into the sky. She stood up in the center as to address the whole team. She looked over to Zane. "You child did not come with us...I know who you are and what you can do, you will be put through rigorous training though and a thorough interview process....we will NOT have a traitor on our hands like we did for Lucien...." she said trailing off. When Anderson spoke she took in his questions. She would answer them...then mend things that needed to be mended. "Anderson...I know how you are feeling but if it comforts you we will be having a hearing of the will as soon as we land. We are going to a secluded island in which Dante told me about just in case he ever died before his time. The money and transportation is take care of, I did have a joint control as well. Now Anderson...Moli...I know you have lost all of your relatives...but you have each other...you both are cousins" she said taking a seat.
Aaliyah looked at Nova. "No not Egypt...take us to Kenya....I have my reasons, we can get enough rest, stock up on supplies and anything else there is we need" she said softly.
Amara looked at Thomas with disgust. "Thomas do you honestly think we are in the ******** mood to eat right now? Let's just go, we've won...don't gloat it's very unbecoming of you" she said as she walked past him with Vincent in hand.

((Fallen Phoenix))
Benkei sighed, and then blinked when Nova mentioned Egypt. Why Egypt? Benkei had never been there before, and he much rather preferred Japan because that was where he was from….but that was too close to his parents, who still didn’t know where he was. Hopefully, his younger brother kept his parents preoccupied enough with his smarts. Where would they go? This was too much. Dante, showing that ridiculous amount of power, was dead, and their Fallen Phoenix leader was now gone as well as Kojiro, and where the heck was Owen? Hopefully, he wasn't dead. It sucked. “Where’d you get Egypt from?... bah whatever.” Benkei grumbled. Then Aaliyah mentioned Kenya. Didn't make a difference to Benkei. They were both in Africa, and he didn't know anything about them. At least , he recognized that they were both countries in Africa...
---------------------------
((UNS - Armand and Amaya))
The Earth Herald suddenly disappeared in a flash, and Armand had to close his eyes because the flash was so much. Seriously? "Oh, no. That can't be," the scientist muttered as Dante fell. The Tattered Owl, Dante Virgils, was dead. Where did that leave the Night Owls? Well, they had Noel, but Dante was their main guy. Che's brother. Like Amara, Armand wasn't in the mood to eat. Well, anyhow, it was pretty obvious the UNS had the advantage now. That would hopefully make the road to world peace easier. He looked over to where Demi used to be and sighed. The boy should be safe with Aeon and the Night Owls. Would the Fallen Phoenix, on the other hand, be alright? Armand was on the UNS, but Armand was Armand, and he tended to care about people in general. But there was no doubt that the world was going to change.
Amaya was completely speechless, letting Amara take her wherever. She wasn't even thinking about appetites and food. It wouldn't be completely a lie to say that her mind was completely blank.
((Edited. - Sorry. Brain freeze.))
