After her attempt at distracting the hulking creature, Avril was quickly on her headset, trying to get in touch again with Lavan and Solei.

"We really need you to get here quick, guys! The big bosses spotted us, and one of them's Nanami's--"

Avril's frantic communication was cut off, however, when the guy that wasn't Giovanni used his own powers to kill the creature they had created...

"You monster!!" Avril exclaimed, all her focus turning on the mystery guy. Quickly, the knives that she had thrown into the now-dead monster flew out of it, towards the mystery man. This was followed by Avril herself, rushing towards him to try and punch him in the face.

Probably not the smartest of moves, but Avril really didn't like seeing what that boss guy did.

Aboy blushed as Damion took her hands. He always seemed to know what to say, to make her feel better...

“Thanks, Damion...” Aboy said, smiling, “I mean it, really... I'm glad you're my boyfriend...”

She looked up at him then, then stood up on her tiptoes, kissing him.

“So you want to try swimming or building a sand castle?” she asked when she finished.

The mystery man in white spun his cane around with one hand at speeds that were incredible. Somehow, he managed to catch each of the knives aimed at him in the end of the cane so that their blades embedded within the wood instead of the man’s flesh. When Avril tried to punch him, he slipped to the side.

His movements were fast and fluid like water. He was fighting with a style that was uncommon, and provided especially excellent maneuverability and reflexes.

Avril's punch missed its mark, and she seemed to skip past him... but as she did, she looked towards him, and used her telekinesis to try and shove him back. It wasn't going to be as focused as if the force was directed through a punch, but Avril wasn't happy and wanted to hit him in any way she could.

Beach

"Ahh... Don't mention it..." Damion started to get red again, before Aboy kissed him again.

"..."

Damion's head was still swimming up in the clouds, when she asked him about what to do next. He blinked a few times, to regain focus, before answering.

"Umm... Maybe we should swim! At least before it gets too cold to be in the water or anything..."

The man in white stumbled forward as Avril’s telekinetic push struck him in the small of his back. He fell forward, but caught himself on his cane and spun around. One hand clamped the hat down onto his head and he glared towards the blonde reaper with annoyance burning brightly behind his eyes.

“Utterly useless.” The mystery man scoffed.

Seeing that the mystery man was preoccupied with Avril, Giovanni turned and began to run out of the mine. This was bad. The whole plan had been screwed up, and by Nanami of all people. This could not get any worse.

“Where the hell do you think you’re going?” Nanami rushed in front of Giovanni, hands glowing with swirling snow and ice. “I want answers.”

“Damn it, Nanami… get out of my way.” Giovanni growled. “I don’t have time for this today!”

"Just what are you trying to do here?!" the angry Avril yelled out at the boss man again, as she used her telekinesis to retrieve all the knives she had thrown out earlier and make them circulate in the air around her.

"One of the biggest laws of Makai is to not interfere with the beings in the worlds of the living! And you're turning them into monsters and killing them like they're nothing!!"

Avril was not very happy.

Outside Coal Mine/Forest

Meanwhile, outside of the mines, Solei (and Lavan, I'd hope) was quickly running along, trying to get back to the mine entrance that Nanami and Avril had likely entered. She/They needed to hurry to help, especially if Nanami's dad was there.

Though there was a good chance that Solei didn't know of how Nanami hated her father, and how he was a really evil mob boss guy.

His thin lip curling into a snarl, the mystery man simply glared at Avril. “The laws of Makai? You spout such drabble and nonsense. Makai is a but a shadow of its former self. Shinigami, Miyamoto and all the rest of its so-called leaders have led it to become weak.”

He shook his head slowly. “You can’t even rely on the criminals in Makai anymore.”

His eyes moved over to Giovanni, who was speaking to Nanami.

While Nanami was having an epic confrontation with her father, Lavan grew relatively worried about her response over the comm-links, and decided to check up on what sort of trouble his girlfriend was getting into. Sounding by the tension in her voice, it was something pretty darn big. And since he had taken care of the bug problem in the woods with a lot of Solei's help, it was about time they made their way to back up the ice user and her friend.

"Alright, Solei! We took out the bug, but it's a bit too early to call it quits. Nanami's found herself in yet another situation from the sound of her message before she dumped the communication link, so we gotta get there pronto and back her up. But I don't want to just go rushing in, so we're going to make this a silent entry. Now come on, no time to lose!"

Without any further ado, Lavan turned about and headed for the mine and the area where he disabled a lot of the mining equipment and where Nanami was previously fighting the imp. It didn't take the pyro and his partner long to reach the area, and to see the remains of what was a pretty nasty fight. Destroyed equipment, molten steel, and a few places where Nanami had obviously taken cover at some point.

"Eeesh... Whatever she fought here wasn't a happy puppy..."

Scouring the area with his eyesight, Lavan made note of all the remaining cover positions, and enveloped himself in the same heat haze as before, becoming a transparent blur.

"Solei, follow up with whatever ability you have to hide your presence. We're gonna go in quiet and fast, and see what Nanami got herself into. Prepare for trouble, try not to get noticed, and hit hard and fast if you do. If Nanami's in trouble, wait for my signal, it will be obvious. When I signal, we hit hard and fast, try to overwhelm whatever's the problem with destructive firepower. You have any other suggestions?"

“… You don’t get it, Nanami. You’ve never understood. I always knew you were too weak for the real undertakings…” Giovanni said quietly. “I had hoped that in time you’d grow better. I did everything I could to stamp the weakness from your soul… and yet you remain so pathetic.”

“It’s pathetic to care about the lives of others?” Nanami growled.

“Yes.” Giovanni replied simply. “You’ve never understood… and you’ve become so weak… but it’s my fault. I could have done so much more. I should have done so much more…”

The mystery man did not even turn his head towards them, but he addressed Giovanni in a loud voice. “It is entirely your fault. I should have handled things myself. I foolishly believed you could have been useful to me… I gave you much. Power, money, I let you lead the mafia… and all you had to do was watch the damn girl.”

Suddenly he spun around and raised his cane. Giovanni tried to move, but the laser blast from the cane ripped through his chest before he could get more than two feet away.

Nanami’s eyes widened in pure shock.

Aboy paused, then nodded, looking towards the water.

“Alright then! Last one in is a rotten egg!” Aboy laughed, then hurried towards the water.

-The World of the Living-

A black haired young man grinned, stretching as he appeared in the world of the living, glancing around.

“Little late to the party...” Cess muttered, “Hope I'm not too late...”

He hopped back and forth, taking a few deep breaths, “Still not full power, not by a long shot... hope it's enough though.”

Cess then hurried forward...

Solei nodded along to Lavan's plan, as they arrived at the cave/mine entrance.

You have any other suggestions?"

"...If something causes the mine to start to collapse, I'll keep a path open for escape, but don't waste time, if that happens..." she answered the fire-reaper. It was hard to tell how stable everything would/could be, in there...

=============================

Avril didn't even have much of a chance to come up with something to say back to the evil boss guy, before he jumped into the conversation apparently happening between Nanami and Giovanni... and shot a blast of energy from his cane through Giovanni.

"You're..."

Avril was speechless, and near frozen in fear. This guy was insane. And really evil. She backed up a few steps, bumping into another of the units that contained one of the human beings this guy and his group had 'experimented' on...

=============================

The blast from the evil boss's cane shot straight through the exit/entrance of the cave, past Solei and (likely) Lavan...

"I think we should get there quickly..." Solei stated the obvious, before reaching towards the wall of the cave entrance.

She then recited another spell, which suddenly caused her to be covered near entirely by stone, before she continued on into the cave...

Beach

"B-but I'm not an egg!" Damion answered Aboy's statement, before realizing he better run after her, "And I hope I'm not rotten!"

He quickly ran... But then tripped in the sand, which ended up tackling Aboy in the process, to cause both to fall down.

"AHHHHH! Sorry, sorry!"

Nanami stood in stunned silence as she watched Giovanni’s body crumple and fall to the ground. His face twitched for just a moment, as if he was trying to speak, but his head fell to the side and he died without a word.

“Don’t feel sorry for him. He had plenty of chances to do his simple job. He failed, time and again, and failure cannot be tolera-”

The man in white had to jump to the side as a very large icicle came screeching by his head. He did so casually, as if Nanami’s suddenly attack had posed no threat to him at all.

“Really now… after all he put you through, are you truly going to let his death affect you?” The mystery man asked.

Nanami hurled several icicles at him, but he dodged them as easily as he’d dodged Avril’s knives. The man simply sighed.

“… Really, now… must we do things the hard way?” The mystery man sighed. Then he turned his hand and used the cane to fire a beam of energy right towards Solei. Luckily it missed her by a few inches. “As for the two of you, simply come out and make this easier on us all.”

Ice shot up around the mystery man’s feet, freezing him to the spot. Nanami was instantly upon him, raising a blade of ice to slit his throat. The mystery man was quicker – jabbing his cane forward and impaling it into Nanami’s forehead.

“Very well. We’ll do things your way. Seiryu, Sō ōku no sedai no tame ni anata ni tsukaete kita Nomura ichizoku no na no shita ni, watashi wa anata o yobu! Watashitachi no kodai no keiyaku o mezame sase, hatasu! Watashi no bijon ni hantai suru hitobito o hakai suru!”

In a fraction of a second, Nanami suddenly fell to her knees and let loose a piercing, horrible scream. Her eyes began to glow and became completely blue, and in an instant the entire cavern was covered in snow and ice.

The mystery man stepped back and smirked. “Now… kill them all.”

“Wahhh!” Aboy yelled as Damion tripped, taking her with him as he fell, landing in the sand.

She paused, blushing as she felt Damion over her.

“Ummm...it's okay...” Aboy said, her face quite red, “I'm okay...”

She didn't mind too much...

-Coal Mine-

“Dang... looks like I was a little too late...” a new challenger said, entering the mine.

Cess smirked, cracking his neck as he looked around.

“Sorry though, creepy looking guy in white!” Cess said, “Whatever you were planning to do with Nanami ends here. Shinigami-Sama has sent the best to deal with you.”

Cess was clearly a Dead Human though... His Sacred Energy was a new thing, after all...

“You got two options... Let Nanami go and I can kick your butt, or don't let her go...” Cess said, glaring now, “And I completely destroy you.”

Lavan got the message the moment the cane fired a beam of energy at Solei. He didn't dispel the heat blur immediately, but he rushed forward, invisible to the naked eye and energy suppressed until the last second. The moment he was within sight range of the man that fired the beam, the heat blur dropped and Lavan abandoned all pretense of stealth, wings bursting out of his back with enough force to lift a commercial airliner into the air, blasting him across the room in the blink of an eye, burning fist heading right for the man's face.

Unfortunately, he was a tad too late to stop whatever he did to Nanami, but the entire incantation and sentence was enough to give him the chance to get a free sucker punch. With very few places left where to dodge, Lavan was REALLY not giving him any chances.

"Sorry, Cess, we're a little beyond the diplomatic stage! We're in the "punch the bad guy in the face with fire" stage! Get with the program and start lighting things up, yeah!!!"

In the meantime, another being was watching through the eyes of the Pyro as he began his assault. Suzaku, in all its burning glory, watched through the eyes of the redheaded boy, looking rather rankled by the fact that someone decided to control Seiryu, the guardian of the Eastern Gate. It was enough to make the bird puff up its feathers in annoyance... And a little worry. If that sort of thing could work on HIM too, then that meant a lot of trouble.

A second later, the spirit of the burning phoenix brushed the idea off. Pfft. Seriously. Someone controlling HIM, the king of Flames, the Guardian of the Southern Gate, the most powerful and grandiose of the four guardians? Someone must have been dreaming real nice to have that sort of crazy delusion.

But... But this proved to be a good test to his container. How would Lavan handle this, it wondered? And how would this end?

Perhaps this would be amusing after all...

So Suzaku settled to watch, perching royally within the burning cage that made up its home in the pyromaniac's mind and soul, amusedly observing everything its little container did...

Lavan managed to connect a punch to the man in white, but as he fell backwards, reeling from the blow, he easily extended his cane and caught himself.

“No. Now you are at the stage where you will all be horrifically massacred by Nanami’s bare hands.”

As if on cue, Nanami turned and rushed at Lavan. Ice and snow whirled around Nanami like a hurricane as she charged towards Lavan at speeds that greatly outpaced what the girl was normally capable of. She thrust an icy dagger at Lavan, one so cold that if it cut through him it would cause even the famed fire-used to feel frostbite.

[?]

“… Ugh…”

Scarlet eyes flicked open to see a field of fresh snow. With a groan, Nanami turned over onto her back and looked up. Instead of the cavernous coal mine, she saw a crisp white sky overhead. Snow rain gently down and piled up around her. The jet-haired female sat up and rubbed her neck, which felt stiff and sore.

I was wondering if you were going to wake up.

Raising her head, Nanami looked up to see a young woman standing on a snow-covered hill, just beneath a barren tree. She was beautiful, with long cerulean hair and skin as white as the snow that fell. Her eyes were every bit as red and piercing as Nanami’s own. She wore a ceremonial gown that flowed in the slight breeze.

“Who-” Nanami began.

Do not insult me by asking such a frivolous question. I have dwelt within you, mind, body and soul since you were but a child. I am the Guardian of the Eastern Gate. Wisest and most cunning of the Four.

“Seiryu.” Nanami whispered. Slowly the slender woman climbed to her knees, only to find tremendous pain surging through her entire body. “Where am I?”

You are inside my head. Ironic, is it not? Seiryu replied, still gazing off into the eternal white horizon rather than looking back to Nanami. “It was the only way to protect your mind and soul. Your body is another story.

“… Why am I naked?” Nanami asked, raising an eyebrow.

You’re a disembodied soul. Besides, since when are you the bashful type?

Nanami groaned, but knew she had bigger concerns. She stepped forward. The snow was painful to her bare feet, but she pressed on, slowly making her way to the foot of the hill beneath Seiryu. “You seem awfully calm for someone possessed.”

I am not possessed.” Seiryu replied.

“You’re obeying that man in white. You’re attacking the people I care about.”

That does not mean I am possessed. I was given an order, and I must obey it.

“Bullsh-t!” Nanami growled. “Since when do you take orders?”

I owe him a debt. I do not like owing debts to anyone. I take no pleasure in killing your friends. Nor do I particularly look forward to Suzaku’s infernal squawking at me for killing his container, but it cannot be helped.

“What? You owe him a… debt? For what? Don’t you think you owe me something for all these years of living in my soul? And who in the hell is that man, anyway?” An extremely agitated Nanami demanded.

After the battle with The Overlord, my host was injured. We four Guardians used up a lot of power to imprison the Overlord for all eternity. He is the one who protected my host, while I rested to recover my lost energy. And when my previous host finally did die… he offered up his daughter to be my new vessel.

Nanami stood in silence as a cold wind blew. “… What are you talking about?”

His name is Takuma Nomura. He was one of The Overlord’s greatest lieutenants. When the Overlord fell, he went into hiding… but he controlled a criminal organization from the shadows, using his puppet, Giovanni. He made Giovanni strong. In exchange, Giovanni was to safeguard Takuma’s daughter. Pretend that she was his own.

“No… that’s not true… that’s impossible…” Nanami whispered.

Search your feelings, you know it to be true.” Seiryu replied.

A laugh steeped in melancholy escaped from Nanami’s mouth. “Great… so the evil bastard I thought was my father wasn’t… and my real father is an even worst type of evil bastard?”

Yes, I daresay you’ve no luck at all in the father department. At any rate, as I owe a debt to Nomura, I intend to pay that debt. It is far better that I do so by killing your friends than by opening the Gate, don’t you agree?

“No I don’t agree! I won’t let you kill my friends!” Nanami roared.

You won’t let me? Nanami, that sort of spirit is why you fascinate me so. You stand here as a disembodied soul… and yet you do not hesitate to threaten The Eastern Guardian.

Climbing the hill, Nanami soon arrived just behind Seiryu. “Your damn right I’ll threaten you. I’ve been content to share my body with you because you stayed the hell out of my way… but I won’t let you kill them. You listen to me. You do what I say. That’s how this works.”

That is not how ‘this’ works, I’m afraid. You do so fascinate me, child, but at the end of the day… you are not irreplaceable. However, I find this devotion to your friends to be rather charming. So I will make you a deal… let us watch and see what they do. If they can impress me as you have, then perhaps this can end without their blood being spilled.

“Perhaps isn’t good enough!” Nanami shouted.

And yet, it is all you get. Now hush.
