"Yeah, final stretch... lets hope all of this is worth it..." Due to the surroundings, and the situation, a song poped into Aleta's head. "It's not like I'm walking alone into the valley of the shadow of death
Stand beside one another, 'cause it ain't over yet
I'd be willing to bet that if we don't back down
You and I will be the ones that are holding the Crown in the end
When it's over, we can say, "Well done"
But not yet, 'cause it's only begun
So, pick up, and follow me, we're the only ones
To fight this thing, until we've won
We drive on and don't look back
It doesn't mean we can't learn from our past..."
She started to sing it out loud, quietly. "Everybody, with your fists raised high, Let me hear your battle cry tonight! Stand beside, or step aside, We're on the frontline!"
Rafeal caught up to her, "What are you singing?"
She shrugged, "Meh... a song I heard before." Aleta turned around to look at the peak of the mountain behind her. She could almost feel the enemy approaching, she couldn't see him yet, but she knew he wasn't very far behind.
(( Frontline is perfect for this right here.
Why are you annoyed? xD You attract stalkers for some reason.))

(( I dispise the people on my soccer team, and It's not like I don't like the guy, it's just that I see too much of him! I talk to him here, in school, he follows me into EVERY thread, hell we hang out on a weekly basis! It's just that there needs to be SOMEWHERE, that I can just get away from people who know nearly every aspect of my life. And I also dispise people talking about me behind my back, )) The twins became irritable, their bodies began to spark, sending those to the ground gently.
"Daddy's not gonna like it! I'll tear you to shreads!"
"Daddy's gonna be mad if you don't play! I'll rip you in two!" Crea's arms became blades and Prea's became guns.
"I'll put somany holes you'll look like swiss cheeze!"
"I'll cut you up so bad it'll look like you just went through the shredder!" Crea flew at her, and Prea flew above, raining bullets down on the metal head, Mary dashed aside, turning into a roll as she tugged out a desert eagle, along with her katana. She dashed in a circle around them, Prea's bullets sprayyed nearby. Mary shot her arms causing a resounding scream, and temporarily put her out of commission, Crea joined the fray. sliding infront of Mary and swung violently, uncoordinated. Mary began to fend them off until clashing with the child.

((I couldn't stand people like that... I actually like to be alone... -_- I guess I'm lucky I'm not the type that attracts people.))
There wasn't much talking within the group, they just marched ahead, the song kept playing over and over agian in her head... it was begining to get annoying. Soon, after about an hour of walking, they reached the entrance of the cave. A cold draft came up, Aleta shivered. "Here it is..." She couldn't see anything. It was pitch black inside, Aleta stuck her hand through the threshhold of the mouth of the cave. It was a combination of the fact her hand totally dissapeared, and the feeling of her flesh being compressed. "... What the hell...?" It seemed to be covered in some sort of forcefield.
Rafeal looked at it, "Thats wierd... can I try?" He tried to stick his hand through, "OUCH!" It shocked him. "I can't go through!"
"Don't worry, I have an idea." Aleta stared at it, thinking. She took a deep breath and stepped into the entrance, and steped back. Now I know why I'm the only one who can do this...
She gathered a ball of light energy in her hands, and put them through the entrance, and punched a hole through the 'wall' of shadows. The entrance flickered, the shadows dissolved, the entrance was open.
"Okay, now whos up for a little dungeon crawling?"

((*scratches chin,* any idea on who invited/let him in the first place? =3= I don't think he knows any of you guys..)) Duriono carefully stepped into the cave, quickly sliding in after Kagura gleefully walked through. "I swear if there's a random encounter I'm gonna flip.." He took a few more steps and stopped, looking around. ((Insert tales of symphonia music. You all need to play that game by the by. =3= It's @#$@ing epic, also where I got the gatekeeper demon thing from. Although their stories and purposes are extremely different.)) "Master.. What are you doing?" Kagura stared at him confused. Duriono quickly took a few more steps, before some sort of shadow demon showwed up and lunged at him, Duri quickly drew his broadsword and sliced it in half. "god @#$#ing dammit.." He grumbled, sheathing it. ((Duriono gained 12 experience points!8D)) She fended off the blades as efficiently as possible before rolling aside and vaulting over a car, quickly popping up again and opened fire on the twins.
They flew around the bullets easily, then retaliated with a fierce burst of fire and ice. Mary quickly ran away from her position as the car exploded behind her, she didn't look at it. Like the badass she is.

((Let who in where? The guy you were talking about?))
"Ah! What was that? We take a few steps from the door, and we're already being attacked?" Rafeal was startled, Aleta as well. That was unexpected. "These are dangerous places... stay on your toes people..." Aleta took out her blade.
The walls had a wierd, dark luminesance to them, just enough to see by.
((Yep, this part is going to feel a lot like a videogame! biggrin Lets slay some monsters! xD But first I gotta eat... see ya tomorrow.))

((=o= nevermind, it's not important... *Is trying to wait him out* C'mon.. ask me about it.. go ahead.. then I'll drop the bomb... Also: While I am nonviolent I also have problems sharing my inner thoughts -stage fright and fear of hurting someone else's feelings..)) Duriono retrieved his twin revolvers, holding them up near his head. "So, any idea of what the boss is gonna be? I hope there's not gonna be a mini boss too" He grumbled. Showing how much time he's spent with Bishop, playing violent videogames whenever things got boring. He was always awesome at games like Kingdom hearts and some fighting games, surprisingly not so good at shooting games and would complain that the characters are so flimsy. The only exception was Uncharted in that case, he really loved that game... But this is going off topic. Might as well give you another tid bit of what's going on in Guardian's fort. Mary sprinted away from the twins who were barraging the landscape with several elemental attacks, Crea flew overhead and dive bombed her suddenly, slicing her across the back. Mary went sliding across the parking lot, her jacket tearing with the fall.

She shakilly got to her feet, a rather large gash down her left arm. Unfortunatly her headsets had survived the tumble, and thus were uneffected. Her head raised slowly as she ran a fist across her lips, wiping off the small traces of blood. "Some children need to learn some respect.." Mary stood tall, and instantly saw her reflection in a demented child's wide eyes. Crea put both her hands together, resulting in a large blade being formed. Quickly haulling it above her head and slashing down at Mary, who slid around the child, landing a few quick thrusts on her backside. Prea rose up behind her, an axe now in her arms as she slashed Mary from behind. When she turned around it was too late~ Blood was thrown into the air. Mary's eyes shot wide open, the twins flew away over onto the other side of the field. "..Bishop..." She whispered, looking at the man standing behind him. "I seriously #$@#ed up on that one.." He panted, quickly regaining his stance. Blood spurted from the wound, Bishop was a really wierd guy... He attracted all of the stereotypical blondes in the world, but he had always wanted a certain violent one... "But.. why?" Mary continued, speaking as if she had just watched the galaxy implode on itself. "I'm not quite sure why.. but it's basically cause I felt like it.." He smirked, looking back at her. "Enough talk, the others are healling.. So c'mon lets bring on the pain train!" He grinned, and pointed his gunblade out at the twins, shooting a single round at them and dashing after it. Mary sprinting right up behind him, Bishop leapped into the air as if the dissection hadn't even happened. He rainned down several other bullets from there, while Mary dug in on Crea. Slashing efficiently, she slid away and leapped onto a streetlight, swinging around it to bound up at Prea who was flying above the other, She dug her knee into the side of her head, sending the demon to the ground. Bishop placed himself under Mary and caught her on his shoulders, she bounced off and pinned down Prea. Slamming her fist into the back of her head until she blackked out. Bishop backstepped and roundhoused the approaching Crea in the face, now that they're forces were divided, the twins stood no chance. The child fell to the ground, both twins began to glow violently as Zephyr made the scene, a demonic grin on his lips as he floated down from the heavens.  His arms spread wide as he came to a halt infront of the wounded Bishop and Mary.

((I'm exactly the opposite of you! I'm somewhat violent, (not that I go looking for fights or anything, just when I get mad I will hit things...) and I have no problem with shareing my thoughts.
You shouldn't be afraid to do so. Although, saying what you're thinking can get you in trouble...))
Aleta took a deep breath, and took another step. The echos of breathing, heartbeats, and water dripping from stalagtites created an eerie tune, almost like music. The air was cold and damp, and... things lurked here. She could feel it, evil things that haven't seen the light of day in thousands of years. I'm going to creep myself out if I keep thinking like this...
She turned toward the group, Rafeal, Kagura, Duriono and June were near the front, and Yumi and Dante ((can't forget about them!)) were near the back. Of course, June was still sleeping. I wonder if she'll be able to fight...

((It's not that drastic a difference, I only say I'm nonviolent, while I have a tendancy to beat the crap out of anyone who annoys me too badly /: I slammed a kid in the face with a binder for making an annoying noise over and over again for a week. As for the sharing my thoughts thing, that's totally true =3= I always think before I say anything, and I often think the worse possible senario will occur.. it usually does but still))
"I feel so at home here~" Duri said, a fangged grin crossing his lips. Stretching to both sides of his face, he looked like he was about to go into his more demonic form. The grin left him when Kagura began clinging to his side, staring into the darkness with wide eyes. She was clearly nervous.. Why exactly?
"Yo, Kagi what's wrong?" He asked hastily, glancing over at her with the corner of his eye.
Kagura was slipping Duriono's headset back into his pocket, Duri didn't notice this however.
"Nothing!" She looked up at him suddenly with a wide smile.
"....Alright then.." He rolled his eyes, moving on.

((Meh... you're right. But I have more restraint for people I don't know... I will hurt my brother. Especially if he calls me retarded... I hate that more than anything... I got called retarded a lot when I was a kid... -_-))
Rafeal knew exactly what the final boss was... but he didn't say anything.
"Kagura, we have nothing to fear but fear itself. We know what we're getting into. Danger, possibly death. But we have to keep going, at this point, we're the world's only hope. Maybe our actions could bring peace, and end the war. This box here," She held it up as she turned toward the group again, "was the only thing SIN wanted, thier plan for ultimate victory, to crush the final resistance. Well, the world will never see it again, hopefully..." She noticed the entrance was still open, Zethriel is going to follow us...
"Let's keep going. Staying in one place isin't a good idea..." She walked ahead, Rafeal followed cautiously behind her. "Whats that?" A sound like... a bat screeching was heard.
***
((Remember, this is a few hours earlier.))
"There is a way I can be free of your mind, a way I can exist outside, to help you." He crawled up further, and sat on his head, and bent over so they were face to face, Ketress was upside-down.
"How?"
"I guess... if you gave up something else..."
Zehtriel chuckled, "What is it? My soul?"
"Your body. Let me control it!" The demon grinned, "Don't worry, you'll still be present, your twisted mind will be there, you'll still think. Maybe if we win this little game, I'll let you go once in a while to rule the world or whatever.~"
Zethriel bit his lip, furrowed his brow in thought. Power... unimaginable power... I could have the box...
"We could have the box..."
The voices spoke again, they had been absent for a while...
"Do it master."
"You'll win, think about the possibilities. Perhaps you'll be rewarded by The Senteniel herself once you restore her powers!"
Zethriel shook his head, clearing his thoughts, trying to seperate what was real and what was imaginary. "Do it."
But what if... He began to consider betrayal,
"Take the offer!"
What if he lies?"
His feeble mind fought for control, "DO IT!" The voices urged him like they always had, and he gave in.
"Okay.... I'll let you take me Ketress. As long as you keep your promise to release me on command." His shoulders went limp, he closed his eyes. The demon grinned with satisfaction. A body to control was a useful weapon for a demon like him, a servant of the darkness. Zethriel would be useful.

Kagura kicked the dirt with her foot, looking at her feet while doing so.
"I'm not scared.." She mumbled, then stopped for a moment, allowing the others to move past her.
When the sudden screech sounded throughout the area, she covered her head and stumbled for saftey. Which was Duriono in the case,
"Master protect me!" She ordered, Duri half shut his eyes in response.
((=_= just read the two pages you missed..
Also; FUUU! >< Why can't anything be easy!))

((I just found a ton of Hunger Games flair on Facebook! I found my favorite quote, "Here to finish me off, sweetheart?"))
The shriek was heard again, a shadow appeared, and Aleta ran toward it.
"What the hell are you doing?!" Rafeal drew his bow.
"I'm going to kill it, what do you think I'm doing?" She knew the best way to do this was ignore her fear.
It took her a while to see the creature, it was basicly a huge insect-like thing. "... Duri, do you know what that IS?" Aleta jumped out of the way as it swooped downward, then up again. Apparently, they walked into a cavern. Aleta couldn't see the ceiling, the creature was hiding somewhere in the stalagtites above. (or where they stalagmites?)

Duriono twirlled out his twin revolvers, strafing back and forth as he shot up at the ceiling afew times trying to get it to move again.
"I think that thing just might be a fiend of somesort.." He guessed, Fiends were usually large in size, however most had no elemental weaknesses or resistances except on a certain point. The game was often to figure out a weak point and exploit it. Duriono twisted the barrel on Faith's Resound, and pointed upwards at the ceiling, as he pulled the trigger a ballad of dancing lights spewwed forth, lighting up the ceilling and caused another screech, the insectoid was covering it's eyes.
"That was pretty obvious." He pointed out, "Living in caves, can't see in the light..." Kagura covered her head even more when the demon shrieked again.
"Kill it Master! Kill it!" She shouted, scrambling from Duriono over to Aleta who were a ways apart.
The light eventually faded, causing Duriono to lose his target, it swooped down again and snatched up Kagura while she was running to Aleta.
"Kagura!" He shouted, shooting a few more rounds at the creature.
"Master you're not doing a very good job of protecting me!"

"Hang on Kagura!" It can't see in light... Aleta shot a ball of light energy at the fiend. It shrieked again, and dropped the demoness. "Are you okay?" It came back, and tried to pick her up again. Aleta stood her ground, and pointed one end of her blade upward. The tip sliced its belly open, blood splattered over the group. The creature let out a final bone-chilling scream, and it flew into a wall on the far side of the cave.
