*Hi just made that sickeningly smug grin of his.*
Hi: Oh I can assure you, your friend Galantros is in my specialized care at the moment. It was rather pleasant, torturing his fragile little mind to... persuade him... to come to me of his own accord. He's quite the "mama's boy", you know...
*A quick flick of his wrist, and hell souls materalized into tangible forms around Inazuma, screeching as they tried to claw her flesh apart. Jacob's unconcious head was already beginning to grow back a torso. The satan simply re-decapitated the necromancer, enjoying the muttered groan of pain Merak let out.*
Hi: Also, there is MUCh worse I could do to Jacob, believe me. *His claws sank deep into Jacob's skull, forcing their way into his brain...* Oh my... he has so much information here, methods on removing so many curses. Things that could help all of existance... Why, he's even so close to eliminating that niearcim's curse on his head...
...Wouldn't it be a pity... if he simply forgot it all?
*Hi's claws squeezed a bit into the necromancer's head, causing blood to pour out*
Hi: Surrender, Inazuma... or do you really want to do this to your friends?
- - - - -
*Dieamos skidded along the ground, plowing through dozens of demonic trees and uprooting them in the process. Green flames still burned at his flesh from where he was blasted by the hell beast's attack. Both had gotten in some rather good blows... Dieamo's was missing several limbs, and one of his arms had shattered... Bone jutted out of his left forearm. Hi's latest summon was bleeding from various punctures and scratches, and a few of it's heads were missing flesh, revealing bare skull.*
*As Dieamos struggled to get up, he noticed the niearcim mage entering the bunker. He moved to stop him, but the hydra-like demon pounced, various fangs sinking into his neck. The demon's body started to wrap itself around Dieamos, attempting to crush him.*
Dieamos: Just how long has that b*****d been keeping you hidden from us?
*A sudden thought came to him... his shadow goblins! Now that he was entirely free of Hell, his specific goblins would be as well... He summoned them, urging them to come to his allies' aid, all while trying to free himself of the hell serpent's grasp.*
- - - - -
*Earlier, soldiers and civilians alike in Barton town were confused. The shadow goblins that had been causing havoc and destruction simply stopped. They were all perched like grotesque birds on various trees by the thousands, just staring off into the sky. Those hell chains faded into view around their necks, glowing that evil red color.*
*The command was given to hold fire, unless the demons started attacking again. For what seemed like an eternity, the demons sat in the trees, barely moving. Then all at once, the chains around their necks shattered, each demon screeching in an excited manner before taking flight, moving back towards the direction from where they came. Guns were aimed once more, in case it was some sort of trick... But every single demon ignore the residents of Barton Town.*
Soldier:... What the hell was THAT all about?
- - - - -
*A blur of movement, and then Trunnth was slammed against the far wall, wings torn to shreds, and several ribs exposed through nasty gashes, oozing with some manner of sludge. When Veni attacked, Coatli resisted the urge to laugh. Seemingly out of nowhere, the mage unsheathed a machete and blocked Veni's attack. Kwurmtis tried to shove his spike tails into the niearcim's back, only to have them grabbed by the mage's free hand. The appendages were crushed, then ripped off savagely, as Coatli hurled him towards a small group of wounded soldiers that were attempting to get to their feet. Both demon and military were sent sprawled against the floor.*
Coatli: Rosemary, your husband is a very stubborn man.
*The mage tried to assault his mind with a massive headache, while still blocking his blows.*
Coatli: He's making it difficult for me to keep my contract you know... Perhaps... if I don't end up killing him, one of my friends may come back to recruit him. He'd make a fine labor servant.
*several blocked blows later, and Veni finally managed to make a cut against the mage's side. He flinched, but only smiled as his blood and a bit of his intestine spilled.*
Coatli: A fine move, but let me show you how it's done...
*The mage's machete suddenly shifted to a green color, and as it was swung at Veni, it seemed to melt and wrap around the barrier protecting him. Sephiroth could feel the protection being removed, altered, twisted. Before he could react, he found his own barrier had been turned against him. It slammed him against the ceiling with enough force to knock the wind out of him. The invisible shielding pinned his limbs, making it near difficult for Sephiroth to free himself.*
*Coatli didn't stop to watch all this either. Soon after he swung and released his blade, his nails grew into sharp claws and swiped at veni's neck in an attempt to relieve him of his head. The vampire found it was difficult to avoid the blow, but barely made it. It was Coatli's other hand that found their mark. The fingers there turned into slithering tendrils that struck out like a snake, piercing through the vampire's stomach. Powerful venom started to pump into the injury, as he made his appendages twist Veni's insides into interesting shapes...*
Coatli: Stand down, and let her come with me... *His hand gripped a handful of Veni's stomach innards and crushed them* I'd rather keep my little bargain for now, and she doesn't seem to want you killed...

Hi: ... Fine.
*With a snap of his fingers, the demon Dieamos was fighting vanished from thin air, seeming to melt as it caught flame. It reappeared next to the satan, it's various injuries gone without a trace. Dieamos stared at Hi...*
Hi: A bargain's been struck. My services in return for her servitude, I think that's a pretty damn good deal. Hell, it's downright generous of me. I'm just making sure she doesn't try anything... In fact, for extra insurance...
*Several creatures screeched and howled as they rushed out of the dead forests, joining up with Hi. They surrounded Inazuma along with the hell beast. Looking past their mutated and decay forms, she realized they were once vampires. She didn't know it, but they were the very same vampires that Hi had slaughtered and brought into his control earlier when he first arrived. The hell beast itself lowered one of it's heads right at the back of her neck, sharp teeth glistening with saliva. Hi stared off into the distance, and growled.*
Hi: Dieamos, call off your pathetic bats, or I'll simply kill Inazuma now. I'd rather not, she certainly has more use to me alive... I'll be back for you, angel. *He laughed as he rushed towards the bunker... Oh, this is all going rather well. For now, he would actually keep his word. He had planned on wiping out the niearcim here anyway. Inazuma wouldn't dare try anything... He still had Jacob's head with him, and Galantros was still being guarded. And if she did attempt something foolish... His hydra-like serpent would simply snap her wings off like a butterfly, and finish her from there. *
- - - - -
*Coatli grimaced at the pain, before making an odd gesture with one of his hands. An indescribably bright, blinding orange light filled the room for a moment, as unnatural flames bursted out of his palm. The fire rushed down his leg, and spread in a circle around him.*
Coatli: Very annoying... *The flames died down, revealing a number of the same small black creatures that had torn THoR apart. Screeching, they started to climb on and jab at Veni, while Coatli attempted to throw his machete straight for the vampire's heart.*

BlackMN *Rosemary let out a yell of pain as the machete entered her side. She had managed to jump at Veni to save him. Ending up on top of him in a sitting posistion and still unable to get up, she sent a dagger through his lower jaw, tongue, and up into his skull so he couldn't give her an order to get off of him. She was also blockng out any thought from him too. She moved her other hand to the blade in her side and pulled it out.**Veni looked up at her, first in surprise, and then in slight anger and sadness. He wasn't angry that she saved him, but was angry that she knifed him. He wrapped his hands around her arm and tried to pull it away from his neck despite the fact that he knew how futile it was... His hands lowered a few seconds later as he stopped stopped trying to loosen her grip. Blood trickled out of the wound on his neck and filled his mouth... he swallowed knowing better than to try anything since she could possibly render him unconscious with a twist of the knife.**Rosemary looked down at him sadly and said in a low voice.* I'm sorry... *She laid forward onto him, partially in a protective sort of way and partially because whatever venom in her hurt and made her not feel quite well. She still held the knife firmly in place. *
Coatli: Well now, if all this little drama is over with...
Minazi: Githar, don't!
Coatli: It never ends...
*The reaper tried to lunge at him from the side, a blade made of energy shifting out of his hand... however, he was still weakened from the numerous injuries he had received in the past couple days. Before he could blink, Coatli had picked up his dropped machete and viciously cleaved him almost in two. He went skidding to the ground, leaving a glowing color trail of energy blood. Minazi ran towards Githar in a panic... Coatli took this as her attempting to attack him too, so his blade sliced through the air. Missing an arm, Minazi fell to the ground, not too far from her beloved*
Coatli: Oh, I do apologize Rosemary. It was self-defense, you know. But their wounds aren't fatal...
*Minazi crawled toward Githar, fear in her eyes... his wound wasn't sealing up like it should. She worked fast to remove her cloak and his coat to wrap around the injury to stop the bleeding as much as possible. His body couldn't regenerate anymore, having taken far too much punishment. Minazi could only keep him alive as she poured energy drink on his face.*
Coatli: My, he must be weaker than I thought. No matter, eventually he'll be whole again... Use that drink sparingly, and he'll survive. See, Rosemary? I've kept my word. *he idly wiped the blood off his blade using the suit of one of the dead soldiers on the ground. Casually, he used small silver blades ("Come prepared, my motto" he said) to pin Veni's ankles and wrists to the floor so he couldn't stop the mage.*
Coatli: Now, come with me, my dear. *He helped her up, his nails digging into her skin... she realized he was increasing the amounts of poisons in her to such a level that she could barely move. He wasn't underestimating her, he was probably using enough to kill a large elephant in seconds. She then felt his hands checking her pockets, casually tossing away her gun and other weaponry* No need for those little toys of yours...
*He gave a dark grin, his teeth exposed through some holes in the bandages around his face. He made sure Rosemary was alert enough to watch his next action, but weak enough to keep her in his grasp. The symbols around his hand that was his contract to his deal faded, letting streams of blood flow. He grunted in pain, but ignored it. It would be worth it*
Coatli: About that little deal of ours, Rosemary. I don't think I shall honor it, heh. I have quite a few frustrations to work out now, after all this hassle... *he slowly looked at his machete as he swung it back and forth, the blade dripping with his blood that leaked from his arm... he then gazed at Black and Shy* It's time I had myself a little fun... Poison filled needles slammed Rosmary to the wall, pinning her in the same places of her body as her husband was pinned. Humming some strange, child-like tune, Coatli slowly walked towards the kitsunes*
Coatli: Watch carefully, dear. You can never begin your training as a niearcim mage too soon...

*Though she could sense that Dieamos was watching her draw, it wasn't as easy for the other demons to see that the abomination was doing so... Having empty eyesockets made it easier for him to appear as if he was simply staring off into space...*
*Dieamos only shifted a bit, scratching a bit at the stubs where his wings were beginning to grow back. It was his way of telling Inazuma he got the message. However, he couldn't just up and leave. The creatures around Inazuma would get suspicious... So how would he go about his task?*
*...His shadow goblins, of course. Mentally, he ordered them to seek out Galantros. He also sent a few back towards Barton town... he was going to see if he could get some soldiers to arrive here. If anything, they at least can distract the massive hydra demon while Hi deals with the niearcim mage... Thus allowing him to free Inazuma. The smaller vampire demons wouldn't be too much of a problem for him to handle personally...*
- - - - -
*Coatli's hand gripped Rosemary's jaw tightly... the pressure he was applying was enough to fracture the bone*
Coatli:... You know, you make a very good point. Besides, I can take my time with it back home. Hmm, perhaps this was all worth it after all.
*He focused for a moment, his eye staring at the others to make sure they wouldn't try anything foolish... It was then they all realized that the barrier was finally gone. Dark energy started to swirl around in the center of the room as Coatli uttered his incantations. However, a blade through his throat canceled out his teleporation spell*
Hi: If these souls are going anywhere, it will be to hell with ME, mage. *he recalled his dagger, the weapon flying straight out of the niearcim's throat and back to his hands*
*Coatli was shocked for a brief moment, but his expression turned to one of anger and hatred as readied his machete. Hi never was a patient creature, and struck first, moving just as fast as the mage. Coatli's blade was barely brought up in time to block the attack, and as the satan's dagger struck it, sparks flew. Each struggled for a moment, their weapons trying to shatter each other, before their masters began striking at each other with their claws.*
