Sandra put her hands on her head and leaned on the wall. "The mission was authorized, you didn't authorize it, but the puppeteers behind you did..." Sandra said under her breath. She smirked and walked away. Sandra had memorized the ingredients as she glanced at the list. "I don't know why he wants to do vampiric incantations around the Lion's cave." She walked off and sighed closing her mind reaching into her photographic memory. She stopped and looked at her side. Sandra looked at a phone on the wall and it rang. She picked it up. "Talk..." Sandra smirked. "Good... The leader is alone?... Good..." Sandra held the phone with her shoulder and cracked a couple of knuckles.


Aldis nodded. "I will watch him for you..." She said smiling happily. "I'd be honored to help you."


Keira sighed. "Mr. Ted... can we continue with the training? Obviously I was left here for a reason." She had a hand on the Book of Shadows that she was interested in. "Help me..."


Francine growled as she walked through the snow. "I swear..." She said to herself. "These people think that I'm more fragile than I look..." She kicked the snow and found a pay phone. Francine stood at the payphone and sighed. "The Cross, the Executioner, the diablo... and the all knowing.." She shook her head. "I can't stand it anymore... pawns... all of them.. just pawns... That was just like Deux another pawn..." She put her hands on the phone and dialed a number after putting coins in the slot.

An old man answered the phone. "Hello?"

"Elder..." Francine said. "I don't know what to say... I can't go on.. I smelt the way they think..."

"Are you alone?"

"....."

"You're gaurds are behind you aren't they."

"Yes...." Francine said aloud. "Take me home..."

"As you wish."

As Kevin walked the halls back to his room, he paused, and looked around. He couldn't see Francine anywhere. He scanned each hallway, and looked up and down every corridor. Nothing. He became concerned. He stopped outside the infirmary. Henenabled his communicator, open on all ports, so anyone could hear him as he spoke into it. "This is Kevin Katsuyori; does anyone know where Francine is? I can't find her in the facility, or outside of it, as a matter of fact. Where is she? Over..."

Trois looked at his communicator and blinked. "Wow... Francine has gone AWOL." He sighed and smirked. He clicked the talk button. "Hey maybe you need to focus on other things... She'll be back. This has happened once before with her..."

He stood there in shock. "I already called for reinforcements. I know how the government works... After the shit they just pulled, they'll be tightening up their defense. They think the best defense is a good offense, and that means there's a good bet that there's some Government sonsabitches out there... Sentinals. I... I'm going after her."
*Damn! What's she thinking!? She could get herself killed walking way the hell back to the Ullric place! Shit... This is no good...*
Kevin jogged intot he garage, and opened the door. Clambering into the cockpit of his mech, he spoke to the computer terminal, "Target serach, 150 meters, Species: Werewollf." **Roger. Searching. One entity found, moving NNE, at 2.1 mph.** "Good. Plot a course for that target. Now!" **Course plotted. Prepare for takeoff.** The mech blasted out of the garage with intense speed. Kevin got a bird's eye view of the snowy forest, as he looked for tell-tale signs of his love. **Warning; Incoming procetile. Taking evasive action.** The mech lurched to the side in mid flight, as a bolt of green electrical energy flew past him.
"Shit!" Kevin was right; their secruity is tightening. **Target sighted.** "Good. Land here. I'll go on foot." THe mech slowly landed flatly on the snowy ground in the middle of the sparcely growing forest. He hopped out of the machine, and saw boot prints on the ground. "That's her!" He ran as he followed them, and even though it was freezing outside, his palms still sweat. Finally, he saw a shadowy figure near a phonebooth next to a snow covered road. A car went by, and its headlights illuminated the figure. It was her. He gasped. "Francine!" He shouted. He ran full speed towards her, and met up with her.
"Francine...." He took her hand, and as she turned to look at him, he looked back into her eyes, and saw the emotions she was feeling. "What's wrong? Tell me. Please."

"I need to see my elder... He has something for me..." Francine said. "And I must do it on my own."

A car stopped by infront of her. ".... I'm sorry..." She jumped in the car.


Trois looked at his communicator and gripped a fist. He threw it at Kevin's father, James. "Get Kevin back here... His ass will be harmed by Keira if not Jack..."

Kevin only stared outinto the road, blannkly, unwavering. A tear welled up in his eye. "Francine..." Unfortunately for him, his time thinking of her was short. A rustling in the woods resounded, and Kevin spun around and drew his gun. As he aimed, he shuddered with cold.
**Target aquired. Preparing melee attack**
An internal computer spoke silently to the mechanized brain of a sentinal. Without any warning, a large, metalic hand lunged for Kevin, and grabbed him by the throat.
"Augh! Son of a..." The sentinal spoke. "Identify yourself." Kevin spoke as well as he could in the situation. "Kevin Katusyori.... of the... 369... JACK! ANYONE I NEED BACK-" His words were cut short, but he got enough in. The sentinal's other metal fist impacted Kevin's stomach with the force of a charging bull. He spat up blood, as he fell to the ground, holding his stomach. "Shit..." He weakly held up his pistol to the large mechanized terror and fired some bullets, which had no effect except for making sparks. It reached for the gigantic axe on its back, and swung down upon Kevin, who rolled to the side, dodging its attack. He got to his knees, and stared his opponent down, exhaling cold, wispy breaths. *This isn't good...*

Xeios paced the room, having an external monologue. He was going on about the proper defense, the most ample way to destroy everyone. The Lion would not go easily, he surely wouldn't like being a part of the chimaera.

"The Lion will not be with us."

"Must we force him?"

"No, no, this incantation I am brewing will take care of Jack. Or, at least make us free of his power. It will only be more impressive when we destroy him."

"A Falcon without his talons,"

"Precisely."

"But what will this incantation do?"

"Make us invincible."

"How so?"

"He is using holy energy, there are two ways to defeat Jack."

"What are those?"

"Avoid his strikes, and defeat him with a tap. Or..."

"Something much more sinister."

"Correct. We could...stop being who we are."

"You mean..."

"Yes, His attacks destroy the impurities, we will become light."

"But then how will we return to our normal selves."

"The reversal incantation."

"But when we do...become light as you say, what will happen?"

"Out impurities will be turned into purities, we will basically become the opposite of ourselves. Our flesh will be pure and holy...Angelic if you will, and his talons will be snipped, and his wings clipped, and his life ours."

"You mean, he, Replace Dalit?"

"Yes, we will possess him, and make him ourself."

"This will not work."

"It will, he is an executioner as well. And actually, the rebirth of someone you once knew."

"Do you believe he has any chance at defeating us?"

"Only if he were a god."

The monologue drifted into uttered words and nonsense. His pacing only sped up, and anyone looking on would simply be mesmerised by the movement.

Keira sat and looked at Ted her eyes grew intense. "I want to know all of her spells." She flipped at page and pointed at it. "This one too... I feel I have read this language a little, and I know that the word means "Dark Wind"."


Francine sighed as she sat in the car. "I want to go home..."

"As you wish... but please understand that we are having a detour along the way... We must pick up our pup." A warrior said. He had a smirk on his face through out the whole thing. His hair touched his neck and he a more wild look on him. "I'm surprised you're abandoning your fiance Francine."

Francine blinked. "I'm not abandoning him." She said looking out the window.

"No you're not..." He said with the same smirk. "You're doing your job and he's doing his. Taking care of those sentinals that were tailing us the whole way." His ice cold blue eyes looked back. "Besides, Francine, who knew you would defeat my brother for the throne anyway." He put a hand on the back of the passengers seat and looked back at the road. "We need a better leader than him.."

Francine nodded and looked out the window. "Thanks Kevin for understanding," she said over her communicator and turned it off.


Trois took out a gun and pointed out the door. "Okay men show us what the R & D department have you all suited up with!"

Werewolves ran out and started taking out huge bazookas and particle cannons.

Trois smirked. "Werewolves carry the strength of ten men. Therefore they can carry large weapons Kevin... Move!" Trois pointed his pistol at the enemy. "Ready!!!"

The werewolves all loaded their weapons.

"FIRE!!!"

A huge barrage of beams and missiles were sent right at the sentinel.

The sentinal could see the incoming missles and projectiles, and threw Kevin to the side, and he skidded across the snow and hit a tree. The mech held up it massive Axe, and swung it at he missiles, halving them, and exploding on either side of it.
**Classification: Infantry. Threat type: B. Adjusting bodily components for Ranged Attack.**
The Sentinal swung its axe around, and held it by the hand, like a machine gun. The barrel at the butt of the axe blazed forth a flash of light, as the chattering of machine gun fire erupted from it, and blazed forth into the armada of Werevwolves.
Kevin groaned as he looked up at the action with blurry vision, then fell unconscious.

Jack growled. No one wanted him to sleep. He stood up, feeling almost unnoticably better. He seemed to fade through the air, teleport to where Kevin was unconcious. He stared at the Sentinal, no shirt on and an annoyed expression on his face. He flowed through the air as the Sentinal shot at the Werewolves, casting a spell that blocked the bullets. He jumped onto the Sentinal and scareamed, punching into it. Using 3 different magic spells insantaneously to increase his strength, not to attack, he was easily able to break the armor of the sentinal. He ripped through it, disabling it in seconds. The sentinal didn't have time to anlyze him as he destroyed it, cursing loudly as he did so. He smiled evilly as he picked up the camera that sent signals to the Government base. He looked into the lens as he spoke, giving fair warning to his enemies.

"Listen motherfuckers, I'm tired. Give my comrades and I some godamn rest or I'LL COME KILL YOU!!!"

He crushed the camera in his hands, his face aflame with rage. He looked over at the unconcious KEvin and picked him and threw him over his shoulder.

"Stupid sentimental bastard."

He scoffed and teleported back into the base, dropping Kevin in the infirmary. He walked over to the PA system.

"This is Jack. If I don't get my sleep, I swear I'll snap."

He laughed and walked back into his room. Godamn idiots can't defend themselves. As he lay down, a werewolf, and a sentinal controller in the Government base each muttered a simultaneous exclamation.

"Holy shit..."

Trois sighed and looked down at the ground. "I swear if Deux was still alive... we would've been saved by her."

A werewolf patted Trois on the back and walked off.

Trois sighed and shook his head. "That's taken care of..." He took out his communicator. "Hey someone get Kevin's robot in base." Trois ran up to Jack. "It'll be alright. Where's Keira?"


Keira sighed and awaited for Ted's answer. She was going to read this language and work these spells to defend her base, her research center.


Sandra looked over at Xeios. "I'm off..." She said walking away. "It seems that my leader is available to talk to." Sandra waved and walked slowly knowing her next confrontation was going to be with the Lion.


Francine continued to ride in the car with the two gaurds. "Are you really taking me to my home?" She asked finally.

"Yep," the driver said with the same smirk. "We just said we needed to pick up one of our pups."

James hrried up to Trois as he saw him leaving the infirmary. "Kevin..." He looked away, and scowled. "I'll go get the mech." James walked outside past Trois and Jack, and found the mech in a pile of snow. He dusted it off and entered it. The controls for him configured automatically, and he set the autopilot to dock in the garage. After system shut down, he stayed in there, and thought to himself. "Kevin... You gotta learn some control, boy."

Ted snapped back into focus when Kiera sighed. "Righto then, Dark Wind....Well, these sets of spells are very devastating, but require some life force. Don't worry, only a temporary thing, it just makes you extremely tired, but if you push it, it'll kill you. Hmm...Kiera, you know the sensation of healing spells, right? How you feel uplifted like a big gulp of air was taken in? Well Dark Wind basically does the opposite, it sucks life out of all it hits. Depending on which level you use, you can either knock them unconcious or kill them, whatever your desire be. Now, to read the language, you need to consult this book. Somebody decided to write down a translation book for almost all the languages of Wicca so that time and mana would not be wasted translating it personally. This should make things go smoother."

He handed her the book and smiled, flipping open to the page with this language.It's nice to have company... Ted thought as he stopped at the page.




Jack turned to look at Trios. He was just in the doorway to his room, and sleep beckoned him.

"She's at Ted's. Now, can I get some sleep please? I'm only Wiccan. No sleep in a week is starting to get to me."

He smiled at Trios and walked into his room, falling facefirst onto the bed, passing out instantly. Snores could be heard from outside his room, though not loud ones.

*Morrighan sighed as she watched Jack walk back to his room. The regeneration spell hadn't had a chance to get to work before he got up. It would reactivate when he rested again and stay active until he was fully healed and re-energized... that spell had saved her life so many times she had lost count, it puzzled her as to why Jack didn't use it himself.

She walked over to the Vampire Torture room to check in on Aldis and Dalit, knealing down and giving him a warm hug. She sat down and leaned against the wall. If anyone needed her, they knew where she would be*

"Ah, it's nice to sit down for awhile."

This is odd, Jack thought as he lie unconcious. Once more, he was awake as he slept. Somehow. He sat in his mind for a minute, getting a grasp at how powerful he'd gotten lately. He was amazingly more powerful then when they had transcended Aren House...He noticed Morrighan's spell on him. He smiled as he slept, his body showing hints at what his mind was on. He wondered if he could cast a healing spell without waking up. He attempted so, and was delighted to see he could. His body only needed an hour of sleep now, before he was at 100%. He began to leave his body, his thoughts floating about 369 headquarters. He realized this was an amazing ability, one that should not be taken lightly. He flew to the Government base, planning on checking on Xeios. He was interested on how he was doing. He went in and saw Xeios in his insane self, talking. Jack overheard through this astral projection a few clips of Xeios's words....


"It will, he is an executioner as well. And actually, the rebirth of someone you once knew."

"Do you believe he has any chance at defeating us?"

"Only if he were a god."


Jack instantly woke up, his spirit flying back to him. He was at 100%, his body was shaking. He looked around, watching the shadows carefully. Somehow, he didn't need that hour. He threw on another shirt and walked outside his room, his eyes wide open. He realized his hands were cut open. Wow, the Sentinals were tougher he thought. He hadn't punched hard enough. He began wandering around the hallways, contemplating Xeios' words...What if Jack were to die and manifest himself back onto the planet?...Wait. Xeios had seen his light attack. He'd be prepared against it...That'd mean he'd do a spell that would make him angelic...It'd be much harder to beat him then...But the prophecy. He would kill the Lion, and train Dalit before he died. So could Xeios beat him with that prophecy? He had Kiera's foreshadow that showed a bleeding falcon...One of those prophecys was wrong. And there was only one way to find out.

Jack stood outside the Vampire Torture Room...He knew they had to attack soon.

"Hello, Trios?" Jack said into his phone, which he had quickly dialed. "Get me the statistics on our current army. I know we are waiting on werewolves and the Father's reinforcements, but I'd like to know if we have more than 100 soldiers."

Trois looked at his communicator and smirked. "All werewolves were just shaken up. They're at 100 now. Only two were put into an infirmary."


Aldis looked at Morrighan and smiled. "It seems that my brother has something on his mind. I will be back." She walked to the door and out the room.

Dalit stayed in his mother's arms and began to drift off to sleep.

"Jack..." Aldis said putting a hand on his face. It was cold to her touch. "You're freezing." Aldis sighed and took her jacket off revealing the scars on her arms. She smiled and leaned against the way. "You're going to kill yourself just like Mother." Aldis smiled. She looked at her arms, #413 Human was etched into her right arm. "Everytime I think about that night, my arm burns." She grabbed it. Father's truly dead.... She thought.


"Life sucking out of me?" Keira looked at her hands. She tried to envision her eveery breath being sucked from her mouth, each breath. A dark ball of wind began to grow infront of her palm. Keira's eyes widened. "Dark wind..." She broke her concentration and the ball broke. "Mr. Ted, who was this woman? Do I know her?"


Sandra sighed as she left her hands in her pockets, she then made her way to the entrance. She stopped for a moment and looked out. "If you're there Lion sir, come out before I leave." She closed her eyes and began to push on the door.


Francine began to look out the window and noticed the familiar territory. "Let me out..." Francine said. She reached for the door and it locked. She slammed her fist on the door. "You're taking me to the government. Traitor..." She snarled.

"Woah.... woah... Little pup, I told you, we're picking up one of our pups." The driver said. "I bet you know who she is... now duck down."

Francine growled and did as told.

Jack looked at Aldis with a smirk on his face. He gave her a fleeting hug while grabbing her jacket and putting it back on her.

"Same. I don't like to remember that day...the day they took everything. "

He lowered his eyes, the visage of the nation's flag burned into his mind. He remembered the days he despised the flag, the days he desecrated the flag...He was now to destroy it. That would be his final masterstroke.

"But we'll avenge mom and dad. And end this, once and for all."




Ted looked at Kiera. "Well, she was the Healing Wiccan of the Order, one of the strongest Wiccans alive. Her name was Vanessa Colbert, and she was very much like you. She was often very serious and worriesome about her teammates and she often bottled up her stress. Actually, she and the Elemental Wiccan of Fire was very much like Jack...Huh. Odd indeed. Never noticed that..."

Ted rubbed his forehead. He looked about the room as though he had been awakened, of sorts. "Anyway, good job Kiera. You conjured the spell on one try. You are an advanced Wiccan indeed."




The Lion stepped out of the corridor shadowed by lack of light and looked sternly at Sandra. His face was grim and deadly, to most normal men it seemed...devil-borne.

"Where are you going, El Diablo?"

"Out." Sandra said glaring at the Lion. "I don't need your say in this. It's one of my personal matters." Her eyes thinned. "I have someone to reason with..." She said and shook her. "No I have some PEOPLE. To talk to..." She walked out of the door. "And don't worry about your stupid betrayal crap, like I'd do something like that. After all for some odd reason I can relate to Xeios." Sandra growled. She took him from me... So I'll take her from him if I had the chance. She thought.


Aldis smiled and sighed. She closed her eyes and fainted in her brother's arms. "I'm so glad you're safe though."


Francine looked around. She grabbed her communicator. The passenger snatched it from her and tossed it out the window. He took out his communicator and talked on it. "Sandra we got you're conversation."

Francine's eyes widened. "Sandra... who's she?"

The driver smirked. "You don't know? My brother's girlfriend, and your enemy."

Trois knocked on the door and began to enter. "Hello Morrighan." He said a bit cheery. "I've got news for you." He held out a file and handed it to her. "Aldis will be left here to gaurd Dalit just a little while longer, you on the other hands are going to be out on the front lines helping Jack." He sighed and looked down. "To be honest I wanted to go out on this mission as well, but Keira said that she was going out with you all."


Sandra looked behind her and smirked. She turned around and put her arms around the Lions neck. "Infact, I'll show you how much I care about this." She kissed the Lion on the cheek and walked out. "I'll be back."


Fracine carefully watched the doors open. The Diablo walked out. Her.... She growled.

The driver walked out of the car and opened the door. The passenger put shackles onto Francine's hands so that she couldn't claw Sandra.

"We finally meet." Sandra said sitting besider Francine.

The car sped off.

"What do you want?" Francine growled.

"What is it?" Sandra asked. "How should I put this?... You're throne."

Francine's lip rolled just like the dog she truly was. "My throne... You can't have it."
