After sniffing around, I finally found the scent I was looking for. N's scent lead us to a very strange warehouse. For some reason....something felt wrong. I felt almost....scared.
"Well....the scent is in that big warehouse. We're here but....something feels weird....I don't like it here guys...."

"Of course it's gonna feel weird, blondie!" Hanako was in a miniature form of herself, laying on her stomach atop Zatch's head. "The Jack of Blades is probably in there, you know. But what do you mean, Zatchie-Zatch?"

"I....Don't know. It just feels wrong. He....somethings wrong. I don't know what." I start to shiver a little.

I pad up next to the two, "Regardless we gotta get in there." My ears are laid back in worry. "Think its got traps?" T.V. teaches you a lot sometimes... Especially mystery shows...

Hanako shrugs and jumps off his head, taking her full-sized form in mid- air. "Well, it's to be expected, you know. Jack's in there. What do you think, Gin-tan? Are you ready to go in?" She didn't bother to acknowledge the women in the group.

So this is it eh? I don't like it. Not one bit... There's definitely something off. Like, this would be the setting for a trap or something in a cheesy movie. "I think we're ready. After all, we're a group of highly spirited and determined individuals working towards a common goal for those we call our friends and allies. Or something..." I reply, snapping out of my thoughts. "Let me check for traps first." I take of a bracelet of mine and tossed it in my hand a couple of time. "Weapon ÄRM: Arrow Rain!" A large crossbow replaced the bracelet in my hands. Aiming it upwards, I pulled the bowstring back, loaded a magical bolt, and fired above us. In moments the space between my party and the warehouse was pelted with an amazing amount of arrows. "There we go. If there were any traps, they would have been activated." I said, taking a few steps forwards. It's like they want us to come in... Like they're waiting for us...

"Oh, you are ALL so cautious. It's boring. Come on, let's just go!" Hanako leans forward on the tip-toes of one foot and pushing open the door. "Noobs, let's go!" And the door falls in forward, Hanako collapsing right on top of it. "Owie!" She calls, not bothering to get up. She wanted one of the others to help her up, and by "others" it's intended at Zatch or Ginta.

Zatch runs over to help her and pull her up. "Are you okay?" He holds his hand out. "You aren't hurt are you?"

"Not yet, she isn't. No." A voice rang out from before them. There, before them sat the man they were looking for. The Jack of Blades. His burning yellow eyes looked at the group before him before rolling derisively. "I must admit, Ms. Orihara... I did not expect to see you here. I'm assuming your brother didn't send you, did he? No... Izaya would not risk such a thing, after all, I'm about to become a Demon Lord in both power and territory today. If anything, Izaya Orihara would wish to be a very close friend of mine." He looked at the others with her.
"And you brought friends. Wonderful." He rose from the dusty couch that he was sat on and clapped his hands loudly, before crossing them against his chest. "But I'm afraid to say that we aren't open on the weekends, so perhaps you should come back another time. You see, I was busy preparing for the conquest of The Void, but upon sensing you approaching, I sent everybody on ahead and waited to solve this personal issue myself. Have you met N recently? Wonderful boy, he's really matured recently." He locked eyes on Kiara, smirking, she fit the boys description of her.
"The things he would do for you dear... Truly wonderful. Or rather, terrible. He killed a man for you the other day, did you know? Beat his face in with his bare hands until nothing remained. It was a truly spectacular sight, I thought I'd need to get Itami to pull him off him at first. Actually, speaking of which." He clapped his hands again, before the floor rumbled around them. A large, brown scaled body covered the outside of the door, trapping everybody inside.
"I had Itami summon a serpent demon for the purpose of sealing your exit. The serpent is currently wrapped around the building like it were a rat, it will no doubt look amazing... It will be the news in the city for months!" He lowered his hands to his sides.
"Now, shall we begin?"

"N did what?" I roar at the demon, my form rippling. "What did you do to him? That doesn't sound a thing like my N!" Forget the demon serpent... I'm going to RIP this "Jack of Blades" to shreds!
Roaring again I RIP from this human like form, leaping forward as I do. Forget the rest of them, this man - this DEMON! Words will never be able to describe the pure hatred I have for him. My claws unsheathe and dig into the ground as I barrel forward, every intent to destroy this devil!

"Divide and conquer. It's a strategy that has existed throughout generations, and has always proved to be ultimately useful. Let me demonstrate." He gracefully sidestepped the girl as she pounced towards him, before slamming his palm onto the ground. A red mist suddenly cut Jack and Kiara off from the others, an ethereal barrier that prevented the others from joining the fray, instead, some of his lycanthropic minions prowled out of the shadows to do battle with the others. Jack meanwhile, turned his attention back to Kiara, two daggers slipping into his palms.
"I won't kill you." He admitted. "N would never forgive me. But shall we dance, my Lady?" He gave an extravagant bow.

"Can't promise the same for you!" I snarl back as I flex my claws, I've never been in a fight like this before, but I know what to do, how to keep my pride safe. I am a LIONESS, I am the strongest hunter in Urbadelphia, I will destroy any foe.
Shifting my weight I pace back and forth, "Then lets dance, Jack." I begin to circle left, wondering if he'll do the same or if he's so confident in himself he doesn't need to study me... Not that I need to learn him, I learn on the go!

"Ahh. A demon who actually speaks our mother tongue. I must admit, it has been some time since I heard someone speak it..." Jack let the girl circle around him as he examined the daggers in his palms. "You know..."[/i] He started, spinning one of the blades in the palm of his hand almost casually, before turning to face the girl, joining her in the circling motion.
"I'm actually excited for this. It's been so long since I managed to truly stretch myself since arriving in this city... Seifer provided some temporary fun for my human form, but you? I can see the passion burning in your eyes, and dare I say it, I will have to work for my victory here today."[/i] He Pointed one of the daggers across at Kiara. "What do you hope to gain from this? N? You realize where he is right now, right..? What he's doing..?"[/i]

"Gain? GAIN!?" I snarl lowly after roaring at him. "You may have filled N with your poisonous words, but I will not falter!" I race around him, darting to get behind him, to swipe at him, less dangerous with out a knife pointed at me.
"I want you DEAD!!!"

"By all means, get in line with half the Otherworld." He told her as he leaped backwards away from those claws. Her rage was making her easier to read, but twice as deadly of she did hit. He would need to tread his ground very cautiously for the time being... "He does it all for you, did you know?" Jack asked as he flicked out a third knife, juggling the elegant blades between his hands like a circus act. "Always he asks me, 'Am I strong enough to protect Kiara-chan yet, Jack' and do you know what I told him? After he killed that man? I said yes. I told him he was ready, but I'm exchange for my tutelage, I wanted a favour of him."[/i] Jack grinned devilishly behind his mask.
"See, this is where people make assumptions. Young N hasn't sold his soul, nor is he doing anything wrong. Right now, N is preparing for war. Along with my son and officers, he is preparing to help me take back what is mine. I am a man of my word, once we are done and if N believes himself strong enough, he can return. But I cannot risk you all hitting my rear flank and distracting him, I need to make sure you're not going to be in the way. It's nothing personal, it's just how war works. You want N back, I want my home back."[/i]
