Anya was about to say something else when a flash of light suddenly interrupted her. Once second she was standing in the remains of the Night Owl's airbus and then next she was standing in midair in a very dusty and disheveled bedroom. "What the--!?" Anya said aloud, then, her body dropped down to land unceremoniously onto a bed. Granted, she wasn't in the exact same bedroom as Nik, Will, and Roulin were. But the bed raised a plume of dust as she landed on it. "Ow!" Anya said aloud again in between two sneezes. It didn't necessarily help any that her shoulder and side seared in pain when she landed either. "S***!" She was grateful that the ancient bed miraculously held her weight and didn't collapse. It was then that Anya decided to take stock of her location. She was, of course, in an abandoned house in a bedroom. From the looks of things, it seemed to be the master bedroom. There was moss and vines growing through broken windows and along the walls. Not some sort of home, Anya would be living in, that was for sure...
====
One moment, Kate was staring at the lifeless body of Nathaniel. The next, she was standing in a very old and disused kitchen. She blinked, startled. This was clearly not a lived in home as she would have thought it to be. There was dust, mold, and moss covering most every surface. There was even some vines growing through the window over the sink. She didn't even want to look into what was a refrigerator in previous life. It smelled awful. Though not as awful as the Death Owl had when she had met him in New York City. Kate literally shuddered at the thought of both Thomas and what she could possibly find in that old forgotten refrigerator. Well, I know I'm not in New York anymore...' Kate thought to herself with a sigh. At least she didn't have to look at Nat's dead body anymore. 'But where am I now? I know I didn't bring myself here with Hermes...'

Bailey blinked a few times and looked around. She was clearly no longer in New York, but in a pantry of some sort. It was a little hard to see, but she could feel the dust on the floor underneath her legs. This house obviously hadn't been cleaned in quite awhile. Shelves lined the walls filled with moldy food. She grimaced at the smell and without realizing it began to lick her hand like a cat would and run it over her face. "This place could lose a little TLC, ~nya~" Upon realizing what she was doing and what she had said, she stopped and gasped. "Oh no! I'm starting to behave like a real cat, ~nya~" Her hand flew to her mouth. She stood up and began to open the door to the pantry, but discovered that it was stuck. ~Nya~ she wailed scratching at the door like a cat that wanted to go outside. Finally, forced to use the strength of her vectors, she pushed the door open. Because of the amount of force she used, the door came off of its hinges and fell to the floor with a rather loud thud. She looked around hoping to find Demios and make him suffer for what he had done to her. Yet, she was distracted by what appeared to be a moth flying by. ~NYA~ She excitedly ran after it batting at it, behaving like a playful kitten, Demios forgotten for now.

Che had his fun outside. Now it was time to return to the work that was inside of the house. Seconds after entering the door, he was met with a myriad of strange happenings. Demios, the traitor, was the first to speak to him. His words of affection for Genya were drowned out by the sight of cat ears. The confused man looked at Demios with an almost tilted head and asked in a puzzled tone, "Why the hell are their cat ears on your head Laharl? They make you look like a Neko fangirl or something." To answer the teen's question, Che replied, "He's right there with Thomas. The person I thought I killed not too long ago. Might want to get him before he kills him."
Before Thomas could spite Che with a good one-liner, the owl of death now had a cat eared boy in his lap. "What the....get offa me kid!" Hastily, Thomas placed his hands beneath Genya and rolled him onto the floor. "Damn it. Never did like science too much. And that's my power's smell. Not me kid." Thomas looked up at where Che had stood only to find Demios standing by himself. "Still gonna getcha Che. One of these days..."
Che had walked into the room that the screams were echoing from. He'd passed Moli with a wave and a brief wink. The teen responded by brushing off more bugs from his blood and sweat drenched clothes. "So it looks like Will is trapped between walls huh? You see how a human feels now right? Trapped between heaven and hell? You want to go up or down? Haha!" To the others in the room, he just smirked. Apparently, the blueberry was Roulin's assisstant. When the boy healed, there would be questioning. Until then, he'd wait for that and introductions.

((UNS - Will))
It seemed there were now two others in the room, a female and a male. He could see part of the...blue skined... female figure because she was standing up on the other side of the bed, but in a moment, that disappeared as she fell to her knees and cooed for Roulin. Now, this other male, was standing in front of him listening to headphones. He smiled serenely at Nikolai. "You must be pretty smart. What do you think?" The Satan Owl fidgeted slightly, and then heard Che's footsteps followed by Che's comment about Heaven and Hell. He smirked. "Oh? And you stink like Thomas, Cheani. Hmph. Che, you've always been one for words. Seems you did learn something. I know where you're going, and everyone in this house too." He wiggled his left arm and managed to touch part of the floor and destroy part of it. Clearly, he didn't intend on accepting Nikolai's help. He faltered, but he managed to hang up with an arm before balancing himself and pulling himself onto the second floor before dusting himself off. "Old Thomas's treat, eh...couldn't have picked a better place." He glanced over at Nikolai again. "I don't believe we've met in person." Then he glanced over at Roulin and Cecilia and smirked. "Really..."
-----
((Other - Genya))
"NYA!" Genya cried as he was forcefully rolled out of Thomas's lap. "Sample!" He madly tried to keep the swab he had from touching the floor, so it wouldn't be contaminated as he rolled and rolled and rolled.....into Demios. "Meow?" Genya blinked as he straightened his glasses and blinked, a bit dizzy from the rolling. The boy's back was on the ground, and his position was similar to a cat belly up waiting for scratching.

Johan heard the few thing that were said to him by both the Herald of Wind and that of Gravity. Two Heralds? Well, now, Johan would have his work cut out for him. That was, until he was mysteriously and suddenly teleported away from New York.
The Mirroring Owl was in the middle of producing a blast that was similar to Raven's shockwave, but with a mixture of Itachi's flame and heat energy mixed in. It would have produced a strong explosive force which he had aimed in Noah's direction. But that the second he sent it out, Johan was teleported to Che's house. Specifically, the living room. Where the explosive force was released and sent directed towards the couch upon which Thomas was seated on. When he noticed his mistake, the force had already knocked into the couch...

At first, Erin remembered watching the battle taking place in New York after reuniting with her sister. Then, everything went white and the next thing Erin saw was a moth-eaten coat. She was stuck in an old ratty coat closet. "What?! Where?!" she whispered to herself. trying to put as much space between herself and the old coats as possible. This movement, raised a cloud of dust and moth balls, which caused Erin to let out a loud sneeze. She stepped backwards and felt the wood of a door behind her. 'Thank that God I don't believe in!' Erin thought to herself before hurrying to open the door behind her and step out of the coat closet she was in.
====
Kate turned to face the door which seemed to be to a pantry, or what remained of one. The door had been knocked from its rusty hinges and had crashed to the tiled kitchen floor with a loud dusty thud. As Kate watched, a girl sporting cat eats emerged from the remains of the pantry. The Eternity Owl simply watched as Bailey began chasing after a mere moth, which was probably something a tiny kitten would do. Kate rolled her eyes. "Hey. You. Yes, you Bailey Summers, with the cat ears." she spoke out loud enough to catch Bailey's attention. "Stop chasing moths and act like a normal person." Kate wasn't really in the mood to deal with a silly girl chasing after moths and acting like a cat. She wanted to know where she was and she was going to find out whether Bailey knew the answer or not.

A voice made itself known to Bailey, which brought the young girl back down to reality. She ceased chasing the moth and turned around to face a young woman that she had never seen before. The woman was very attractive, yet there seemed to be an underlying sadness in her eyes like she had never smiled in her life. What could be ailing this young woman to make her appear so sad? Bailey scowled when she mentioned behaving like a normal person. "It's not exactly my fault ~nya~," she said unable to stop herself from "nyaing" at the end of every sentence. "That one guy named Demios did this to me ~nya~," She tilted her head and looked around. "I wonder where we are ~nya," she said in bewilderment scratching her cheek.

Roulin's blurred vision had started to return as the pain started to die down. Around him were familiar energies, a few of which he didn't too much care for. Placing a face to them all, he could now tell who was surrounding him. There was Will, Nikolai the shadow guy, his father Che and his assisstant who he thought would be left behind to die...he closed his eyes, ashamed at his own perceived weakness and finally sat up on his bottom. His out of commission arm was beginning to heal itself finally, but it stung as if alcohol were being poured onto it. The owl of life looked to his right to first notice his now blue and velvet partner Cecilia. Her wound was still present and blood had stained most of her shirt. Her aura was still low, reverberating lowly with pain, but she was here. She was alive. "You...you made it out...oh thank god..." He said to her in quivering tones. With his working hand, he reached out and placed a hand on her shoulder making sure that she, as well as everything else around, wasn't a dream.
"Her, me, your brother...the lot of us kid. And ******** you Will. I told you not to call me that damn it!" Che retorted to the blonde mentor of his. After barking at Will, Che looked down at the two, then up at Will. His gaze then returned to Roulin and Cecilia who were still kneeling and sitting on the dusty old floor. He watched them with a smirk, but remained silent for a moment. When the time was right, he asked aloud, "I'm guessing this the Suit of Hearts in your makeshift team huh? I thought hearts were red. You suffocating or something Ms. Hearts?"
Che's words hadn't made their way into Roulin's mind. The only thing he was worried about was whether or not his actuall mission was a success. Focusing mostly upon Cecilia now, he asked in an almost worried tone, "Is Lomoli and Khalifa here? Did we save them?"

Nikolai immediately recognized the voice of the man in the floor. He smiled and said, "Ah, so you're the Satan Owl that Anya was annoyed at. Well, you probably know who I am." Nik flipped out of the ceiling and landed on his feet in front of Will, smiling widely, and extending a hand to him, "Good to meet you Mister Beelzebub. Name's Nikolai Krane, but you probably already know that don't you?" Nik bobbed back and forth as he looked at Will, he seemed like a semi-decent guy, despite the inherent evil and the fact that he was Satan incarnate. Nik turned his head and waved to the worrying Cecilia and the injured Roulin, saying, "Heya guys, how was your battles? Well, you're both alive, so that's something." Nik turned back to Will and smiled, waiting for him to reply to him or maybe he was just listening to his music...

Ember could not belive what had happened, first she had been starting to enjoy herself as she ran around with some of the boys among the UNS, A potential Candidate for Tim's position, Luca whateverhislastname is and a boy who thought he could control fire... Itachi she thought his name was. She had just started to get Excited when they suddenly vanished, out of nowhere. "What the hell?" she thought flying to the mass of metal that Luca had been using as a shield and then streaming to the hardening lava that marked Itachi's vacant stand. "F***!" she said lightly landing on the ground as she looked to the sky and then about again irritated due mostly to the fact that she had lost a pair of playmates and the lack of alchohol in her system. Alcohol was Ember's elixir, her potion, her eternity, her balance, without it she was out of control, and at the moment since there wasnt a sign of alcohol present Ember was more irritated than she had been in some time.
"Adam!" she shouted having noticed the Gravitiy herald not far from her current position talking ot some one who she did not recognize imedeatly, "ADAM! WHERE IS THE BEER!" she shouted again glowing white hot as she became irrationally irritable.

Cecilia's worried expression filled with relief as Roulin spoke. Out of the corner of her eyes, she could see his wounded arm slowly begin to heal itself. She gently touched his good hand, which had rested atop her shoulder and smiled cheerfully, although it was strained. "Of course I made it out alive. I don't plan on dying that easily," she winked at him before turning to someone else who had spoken to her. She didn't know who he was, but apart from the eyes, he was the spitting image of Roulin. It was the first time she noticed anyone else in the room. Her eyes also fell upon Nik and a blonde haired man who appeared to be stuck between floors. Finally, her eyes rested once again on the one who had spoken to her. "No, I'm not suffocating, which is surprising because you smell like something has crawled up your a** and died and it's been there for awhile," she sneered before answering Roulin's question. "According to him they have," she said pointing to Che. She then turned to Nikolai. "Would've been better if I hadn't been shot by some damned third party." She ran her bloodied fingers through her white hair streaking it red with blood, but not caring. She was in need of a shower anyways. "I'm Cecilia Charmers," she said to those who did not know her.

((UNS - Will))
“I’ll call you what I want, Cheani,” the devil snapped playfully back at his former student and friend, purposely using Che’s hated name once again with emphasis. Will looked at Cecilia and Roulin. Che’s comment had been a bit amusing. What did the girl want? A Purple Heart Medal for sitting by Roulin? Roulin clearly cared for her, and that was obvious even without the words that came out of Roulin’s mouth.
The blonde then turned to look at the white haired Nik. Of course, Will already knew who Nikolai was. He smiled slyly. “Ah, and you're Anya's stalker. William DeScythe, Nikolai. I do have a name though many know me by others…as you seem to find amusing. A pleasure to meet you.” The blonde held out his hand for Nik to shake, but then retracted the hand. “I trust you have been treating Anya well?” It wasn’t really a question, more a statement. “Speaking of which…hmm….” He nodded, smiled, and began to head out toward the door to the bedroom.
And then Cecilia spoke, and Will had to smirk at the girl’s answer. “She’s right, you know.” He winked at the Celestrial Owl and Roulin as he walked out the room. “I’m sure the four of you can handle the situation. Rou, you’re giving your weakling of a father a heart attack with that girl and yourself….you don’t even need a Suit of Hearts.” He chuckled and just happened to pass the master bedroom, where he spotted a blonde girl on a dusty bed. Remnants of a dust “bomb” were still up in the air as if she had landed recently. There was something familiar about the girl. Of course there was. “Ah, Anya, fancy meeting you here. Safe landing?”

Kate frowned slightly upon Bailey's answer to her statement about the cat ears and antics. "You are referring to Laharl, Summers..." Kate replied, rolling her eyes at the girl. She was deciding to deal with Bailey's incessant 'nyah-ing' for the time being. Though, it wouldn't be long before Kate found it irritating. "Hell if I know where we are..." Kate muttered in response to Bailey's spoken question of their whereabouts. The Eternity Owl then proceeded towards the other exit which seemed to lead to another part of the house. She said nothing to Bailey about it though as Kate didn't see the need to. Right now Kate planned to see if Che was anywhere nearby. Maybe he knew what happened.
====
Anya was just deciding to get up from the dusty old bed when she sneezed again. She wasn't sure if it was from the dust again or some other reason that someone somewhere had mentioned her. But she attributed it to the dust clouds anyway just because that seemed the more logical of the two reasons. Anya had just placed her two feet on the floor next to the bed and was getting to her feet carefully so she wouldn't hurt herself any further than she already was. That was when she heard a very familiar and very hated voice. The Poison Owl blinked, startled, and turned her head swiftly to look towards the door of the master bedroom. She was very displeased to find the person standing there to be William Descythe, The Satan Owl. A person she had thought she was finally rid of when she left the UNS. Her eyes narrowed instinctively as she glared at Will. "Well, Well. Look what the ******** rat dragged in... It's the Satan Owl. Just the person I didn't want to see..." Anya retorted.

Che raised an eyebrow when Cecilia had snapped back at him. He grinned a toothy grin, then looked over to Will with his insult prepared. He opened his mouth to proceed with the acidic verbal assault, but stopped, exhaling the air he'd gathered. Cecilia had passed his test. Could she stand him? No, but if he did ever decide to bother her, he knew she'd be some fun, even if it was predictable. He didn't bother giving her his name. She'd get it eventually. "You've got yourself a good one son." Che said to Roulin after flipping Will off. "Better than the whiney pale healer you used to hang out with. If you guys will excuse me, I'm going to go into the kitchen and, you know, grab something to eat out of my...."
"Whoa!" Thomas had leaped out of the way of Jonah's attack. Had it hit him he'd have been far more than just damaged. His ribs would've been all but disentegrated. "What the hell Joe? Ya almost got me with that! C'mon! I can't lead your a** dead!"
~If I still lived here, I might care about that....man I love being homeless.~ Che thought to himself as uncaringly as he would've spoke it. There was a hole in the wall now and the couch was...well, it was for sitting anymore. Turning a blind eye to the two UNS members, Che entered the kitched. There he found Kate and another Neko thing. "So...if you're in the kitchen, does that mean you're going to whip up something for us Kate? The freezer still has food in it. That is if the bacteria hasn't gotten to it yet."
~~~
"Good one Cecilia. By the way, that jerk happens to be my dad. Cheani--I heard that damn it!--Jesus...Cheani Presidiomni." Roulin revealed to Cecilia with a curt smile. Looking around the dirty, dusty room, he brought his arm closer to his waist. He knew that wouldn't keep infection out, but it was worth a shot. "Greatest dad in the world...anyway, we should get out of here....get Moli, Khalifa and get out of here asap."

Noah Rosso
Noah stood in mid air as if on solid ground, once Raven had deflected his attack with her own concussive force, a smile was brought to his face as he thought it would have been more fun than he had originally thought. The winds in their immediately area began to stir and he was about to go on the offensive but a dumpster which flew over his head causing him to shift his attention to find the source to only witness Adam arriving on the scene. "Well if it isn't Mr. Gravity himself. It's quite rear you come to the actually battlefield." He spoke teasingly before turning his attention back towards Johan as it felt a disturbance in the wind. Johan was preparing an attack and could feel the heat upon the wind which only made him smirk as he used the wind to reflect the light in the area rendering him invisible as he swiftly dodged blast by falling to the ground though landing soundlessly. His destination would have been behind Johan but the minute Noah was to 'assassinate' him, he disappeared without a trace leaving Noah confused and searching for him. "Where did he go?" He questioned as he lifted his right hand to scratch his head as he looked around the area before focusing back in on Raven and Adam. "And what reason is their to tell you, wouldn't that take all the fun from the mystery?" He called out from behind the woman in a teasing or mocking tone with no desire of attacking her since it was futile for her to resist thinking she could handle two heralds and on top of that she wasn't even at her peak. "You will know in due time." He finished with a smile on his lips as he checked his surroundings for Johan
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jaylin LaQuiel
Jaylin had planned to sneak up on the Herald of Electricity with ever intentions to blowing a whole right through his metal clad body, with the armor he had on which resembled a scorpion by the tail he charged the tail which was actually a rifle cannon or simply put an ion cannon as he call it since it fires energy but regardless he wouldn't get his shot off as he was teleported out of the city just like everyone else on his team and even the UNS as he would come to find out. "What the hell happened? Where am I?" He stated as he then realized in was in a house of some sort and in the garage at that which was infested with roaches. Jaylin couldn't stand to be in a place like this and even less when critters are trying to climb up ones leg, a shot could be heard as he fired one at the ground which caused the little critters to scatter while he walked into the house itself seeing as he heard voices. " Who rat whole is this?" He called out as he eye'd many of the very people he had come to hate and all fell under the title of 'UNS'.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Khalifa Marcellus
Khalifa wasn't to far behind Lomoli as they traveled at high speed making their way to the battlefield in which they planned to bring hell to the Fallen Phoenix and anyone else who stood in their way, they were beaten and tortured and planned to repay them tenfold if not more. Swiftly evading the buildings that still stood, Khalifa was on the ground just below Lomoli, the battlefield was just coming into view when all of a sudden everything shifted and changed and Khalifa was going to plowing right through Che's house if he hadn't teleported just before he hit the wall into the house though still hitting a wall just not hard enough to go through it with just enough time to hear Roulins question involving himself and Lomoli. "I'm here.... Halfway anyways." He stated irritatedly as he was already in pain and this just added to it. The wall he crashed into would be his resting place for now as he didn't even feel like moving anymore. "Where are we anyways? You could have left me where I was if I knew we were coming to this s**t hole." He called out.

Amara looked up and she was in front of a book shelf. Unlike others she was fortunate not to land in a place infested with moth balls or dusty beds. She recognized this place immediately from Che's mind. She looked as she saw a photo album as she opened it. The smell of must, mold and age itself reeked from it. She saw Che and Dante in pictures with their parents. She smiled as she saw a young and happy Che in Italy. She glanced towards him and continued to look at the pictures.
Noel had landed in another room of the victorian house as she looked at the pictures that hung up from it. Will was here....Thomas was here...so the man who they thought were dead was still alive. Will...what the hell is Thomas still doing alive? Why are we all here together she asked her satanic counterpart. She looked out the windows as she awaited for her answer. Everything was calm so it didn't matter for her to go downstairs and speak.
