I chuckled; the girl had spunk, I'll give her that much. Luckily, one-ten isn't out of my strength level, and I made sure to steady her as the demon was throwing her around, my active ability showing as a clearish-white glow around my whole body.
That's when I noticed the other guy.
"Awww, man, another one?!" I groaned.

" Transformation" Sora growled as his hands began to shoot smoke out as well, pressing his hands to his head he let out a scream. The scream had a strange edge to his voice, like it wasn't completely human... then he started to laugh. It was an insane, loud laughter, wide eyed, wided smiled. His face was showing burn marks on his skin, which got bigger and bigger as even his hair caught flame and burned away. Soon his entire face with burning away from the fire, and yet he continued to laugh. Soon the fire burned away his face completely, until he was nothing but a skeleton wearing clothes. Fire burned around his face, the skull suddenly turned to the demon and roared. |

".......yeah. Another one...."
I turned toward it, glaring.
"Look, we're a little busy at the moment, we'd appreciate it if you left us the hell alone until we finish this fight?"
Not that it was gonna anyway, but hey, a guy can hope, right?

Hearing an insane laugh, Shiki looked to see it coming from the first boy she'd helped out of the wreck. His skin the melted away until all that remained was his skull and the rest of a skeletal body under his clothes. Then she heard the orange haired boy yelling at him, thinking he was a demon. Shiki figured he could be, but decided to see what happened. She delivered one more flaming punch to the demon before jumping off. The demon of course wanted it's revenge and swung at her, hitting her with the back of a clawed hand and sending her flying towards the orange haired boy.

Sora, no...Ghost Rider was about to react to Neku threatening him when he saw Shiki being attacked. Flames constructed around his hand and formed a flail, he swung it out and it wrapped around her, with a brief jerk he pulled it and it pulled her to him where he caught her safely.
"Otherborn...I am grateful for your assistance earlier, now allow me to return the favor." he set her down briefly and pointed at the demon. "back to your cell demon, your warden has arrived..."

"H-hey! Don't you t-"
I stopped, his words registering.
"....wait. You're here to help?" I'm sorry, I sounded skeptical, and sort of incredulous.
I couldn't really help it. I'd never really met a demon who helpd us before, although I'd heard of a few.

Shit, this is gonna hurt. That was Shiki's only thought as she flew through the air. Suddenly something wrapped around her and jerked her back in the opposite direction. Does it really have me again? She was proved wrong when she found herself in the arms of the flaming skeletal boy. She was speechless as he spoke, mostly because the wind was still knocked out of her. Once he set her down, she stood by him for a few seconds before backing up to stand next to the orange haired boy.
"Whatever your name is, I don't think it's our fight anymore." She said as she focused on the skeleton boy.

"Neku," I told her absently. "Neku Sakuraba... and you might be right."
I didn't get it. "What's up with that guy?" I muttered to myself, crossing my arms. "If he gets in big trouble, he'd better not expect us to save his bony ass."

The large demon was already weakened from Shiki's attacks, Ghost Rider knew this as his other weapons began to form on his body. He reached up and grabbed his sword, the blade's tip making sparks on the ground as he dragged it. As the larger demon lunged for him and swung the sword, slicing at the demon's face before slipping under it and slicing it's chest. Rolling back from a last ditch attempt to crush him, Ghost Rider ran up, leaped in the air, and cut straight down: dividing the creature in half. As the creature melted away and burned they were hit with the news that it wasn't over: the eyes on the street posts began to turn their attention to them. Otherborns...The buildings next to them suddenly began to morph, pieces of it blew off and hovered in the air like time froze. Pieces of the bus began to fly around forming a make shift gate, out of the tarmac monsters began to come out, smaller grunt demons but still lethal. Ghost Rider turned his skull to the other two and said, " Fight for your life." He spun the sword in his hands as the demons began to run towards them. |

The words that ran through my mind aren't appropriate for everyday communication.
"THis is why I hate this place!" I groaned.
I spun towards the girl, grabbing her by the shoulder. "We've gotta fight, just like he says, or we'll be drawn through!" I knew there was a note of sheer terror in my voice; very few things scare me, but the Otherworld itself, not the half-vision seen though breaks in the veil, scares the shit out of me.
Been there. Done that. Not doing it again. Hoping I'd gotten my point across, I spun back around, summoned the fire in both my hands and charged into the fray.

Ah yes, the typical, 'when you think it's over even more enemies attack' show. And you know something?
It sucks every. single. time.
Shiki noticed the fear in Neku's voice, but said nothing of it. When it came to the idea of falling into the Otherworld, well there weren't many jokes to go around. She nodded at Neku, agreeing with him. "Right." With the demons starting to form around her, she could feel the trail of demon blood in her veins react. Gosh she hated this feeling, but she'd just have to ignore it. Whenever a group of demons showed up, this was the consequence.
She ignited her hands with fire, glaring at the demons charging at them. With her eyes on the one straight in front of her, she prepared to fight.

I sliced out with the energy emanating from my palms, reveling in the feeling I got from using these abilities. Jumping back, I took a moment to mentally grab a piece of the scenery that still seemed to be sitting on the ground and hurl it at a demon about to slice the girl open from behind before returning to the fray.

Hearing a roar behind her, she glanced over her shoulder at the dissipating demon that had just tried to tear her open from behind. Neku had taken care of it though, and Shiki made a mental note to thank him later. That is if there was a later for them. Turning her attention back to the demon coming at her was her next move. She dodged a swipe from it then managed to preform a flaming uppercut to it's disturbingly large jaw. While it stumbled back from the hit, she released a stream of fire at it's neck, destroying it. She barely had time to celebrate, in fact there was no time. Once the first demon was down, another charged at her from the right. Glaring, she jumped away at the last minute, trying to get at it from behind.

I grinned, then spun, taking out another demon, before shifting my attention to a larger one. My eyes glowed with the same energy as my hands, and an uppercut of force from below sliced it clean in half.
Panting, mentally reminding myself that that attack took too much energy to use very often, I continued slicing at the demons that were surrounding us.
"Dammit, there's just no end to them!" I shouted angrily.

Ghost Rider began to hack at more of them with his sword, cutting them down as quick as he can. More did come as Neku pointed out, he whipped his flail and pulled one to him. It allowed him to cut it apart as it passed him.
"They are being directed by a higher level demon or incantation, find the demon or incantation and take it out the veil was solidify and we'll be pulled back to the human verse."
