Shadow | M: Dread, Ko, Blade, Wraith, Leatoria(ind) Shadow had just gotten all of the little ones to sleep when Dread called to him. "Shadow! I need your help with Ko!" Shadow limped out before tilting his head, navigating his way to the door. Ahmya came in demanding to know what happened and Dread took her to the room. Shadow waited a moment for him before saying, "Lead me to--" Shadow froze, his sightless eye turning to the lake close by. He could feel Blade and Wraith there, but no one else even though he felt like Ko was there.
Shadow limped down the steps before hurrying as fast as he could to the lake. He froze as he felt Wraiths power disactivate before turning his attention to Ko. Or what was left of Ko. The man in front of him seemed to be drained of all his fight. . .or willpower. He had felt a similar power just a little earlier. He closed his eye before reaching out, feeling until his power recoiled slight. Aura Manipulation mixed with Willpower Inducement. He shuddered before sitting down. He would need all the energy he could get for this.
Shadow moved the branches around the woman before stretching the shadows around her. Enveloping her completely in them, he roped the energy threads around her. Not her in particular, just that one power. Willpower Inducement. He flinched as the power started to reach out towards him before he started draining it. It wreathed, reaching out as if to start draining him. It would be a race then. He squeezed harder, trapping it but not entirely stopping it. He didn't want to stop it, that could potentially kill him. Instead, he reached inside the power, going through all the ones she had drained.
He found Ko's willpower, his spirit to fight and quickly linked Ko's energy thread to it. To make sure that Ko's personality came back to him completely, Shadow had to keep the power from swallowing Ko. He threw up a few energy shields, draining Ko's willpower back into Ko as fast as he could. He finished draining Ko's willpower out of the woman's power and abrubtly cut the thread linking them. He lurched back into himself as did Ko before opening his eye tiredly. He got to his feet, swaying before steadying himself on a tree. Multiple cuts ran across his arms and legs now, all of which were bleeding.
Shadow panted, his head tilted towards Ko to make sure he was okay. He couldn't feel his powers, which was he supposed normal right now. He was drained of energy, he needed to sleep. A burst like that, ouch. He shut his eyes as the pain slammed into him finally. He swayed again, breathing heavily. |

Ahmya and Blade I M: Dread, Shadow and Ko Ahmya growled as Dread tried to leave her, and successfully left her on their bed. What the hell? And he wouldn't even answer her when she asked who the hell had hurt him, stupid bastard. She pushed herself up, still exhausted and drained of most of her own aura. She limped to the bathroom and splashed some water on her face, wincing as it touched her long claw marks. She couldn't see out of that eye, or even open it. She didn't know if it was usable or not anymore, but she didn't give the slightest damn.
She went out of the bathroom, using a washcloth to press against her bloody eye. She was going after Dread. Gosh, she had to keep him in check and alive. She stalked outside, looking exhausted and grumpy. Where was he? Where had he gone? She went towards the forest, wondering if he was there. ~~~~
Blade was pissed. First off, Ko had changed and he hated change. Secondly, this little evil furball had shown up and he hated the thing beyond measure. And he was calling him uncle? Oh, he was going to be choked. He was about to rush the child creature thing and try and strangle it, when Shadow showed up. Some sort of odd battle took place after that, that was weird. He still had his sights set on Wriat, the creature was going to be punished. He kicked at the creature, hoping his foot would connect and punt the thing across the field like a football. The next thing he did was rush over to Ko though, knocking the man over and to the ground. His hands wrapped around Ko's neck, tightening dangerously tight. He let go and slapped the man hard across the face, punching him afterwards once. He then hoisted Ko up into his arms, sitting while hugging Ko. He had a few tears in his eyes, his emotions seeming to change from moment to moment. He felt vulnerable and exposed, which made him want to be comforted and valued. Yet, he had reacted out of his anger and feeling of being threatened with the situations. Blade was emotional unstable to say the very least. |

Ko, Wraith, and Dread Mentions: Shadow, Blade, and Ahyma (ind.) It felt like he just woken out of a coma, and now been greeted with pain. He blinks a couple of times in confusion, the soft crying of Blade entering his ears, and Wraith blowing a raspberry at Blade. Luckily, the kick went through the creature's body, and Wraith was left unharmed. Back to Ko, he pats Blade a couple of times on the back. Reassuring them both after what just happened. "I'm fine, Blade. I'm sorry for worrying you." He says softly, ruffling his hair with a small, tired smile on his face. That's when he smelt blood and his face pales, gradually pulling himself away from Blade, and looks around for the source. He found the cause of that scent: Shadow. Crap. Ko turns to Blade, "Go back in the house and wait for me there. Once I'm done with Shadow, we can hang out together. I promise." Giving the unstable man a quick hug before rushing over to Shadow, with Wraith following in behind. Ko examines the man's injuries and begins to panic, trying his best to use his powers, but it wasn't working. Why wasn't it working!?! He grew panicked and fearful. He can't let Shadow die, not after what he did to help him. "I-I don't know what to do. My powers aren't working." His heart was racing, his breathing grew heavy as he starts having a panic attack. That's when Dread approached them, limping over to the small forming group. "Easy. Breathe, Ko." He could tell that the young man was about to faint at any second and the blood wasn't helping either. Dread coats Shadow, well, with shadows and allows it to cover the entirety of the man. "It should stop the blood, but it won't heal it." Ko could feel his heart racing, the air in his lungs leaving him. Wraith sits there, thinking on what he can do to help them. There's no other healers here, most of the healers have left to raid that facility. Wraith stands up, lunging at Shadow and entering his body. Using his powers to mend Shadow's wounds. The thing is, Wraith didn't come back out. He was still inside the blind man's body. "Don't worry, Shadow! I'll spare you a bit of my energy for you!" Mentally communicating with Shadow, which means that others cannot hear him. Ko calms down when Shadow stopped bleeding, and he quickly catches Dread, who collapsed out of exhaustion. "All of us need to rest up. We need it." Carrying the scarred man back to the house, but slows his pace so he can also keep an eye on Shadow. Dread's main concern was Ahyma and her stubbornness, knowing her, she's probably out looking for him. |

Ahmya I M: Dread (ind.) Ahmya growled, walking through the forest. She wondered where the heck Dread had gone. She was confused where she was now, and she was trying to turn around, but as she could only see out of one eye, she had gotten easily confused at where she was. In her panic, she hadn't watched where she was stepping and the ground disappeared from underneath her. She made a small Yelp, then landed hard in the dirt. She had fallen in a hole, and she was hurting worse than before. She tried getting up and managed to get up after a little bit, but she tried to get up and climbed out. She failed and landed back down, this time on her wrist and causing some pain. She didn't break it, but it was hurting and she wasn't able to get back up.
"Help!" She called out, giving up and laying back down. Trying to conserve her energy. |

Shadow | M: Wraith, Dread, Ko, Blade "I-I don't know what to do. My powers aren't working." Shadow heard but couldn't respond. His body wasn't responding to him. Damn it. He was drifting into unconsciousness which wasn't good. Something entered his body and his wounds stopped bleeding, mending. The deepest one, however, seemed to simply settle. Oh well, that wouldn't matter. It was just another scar to add to his collection. He opened an eye as a little trickle of energy flowed into him. "Don't worry, Shadow! I'll spare you a bit of my energy for you!" A voice mentally said to him and he smiled. "Thank you Wraith," he thought, hoping the little creature could hear him.
Shadow pushed off the tree, leaning heavily on his cane as he heard Dread collapse and Ko say, "All of us need to rest up. We need it." It sounded like he was back to normal. Shadow would usually simply check but he couldn't access the energy threads at the moment. No matter, Ko was right, they needed to get back to the house. Shadow limped forward, staying close to Ko as he navigated through the forest. |

Jericho: Mentions: Ero Jericho felt Ero stir in hsi arms, but he kept moving on, knowing that they weren't safe until they were far away from Ibex, and sure enough the path he was taking led to the outside. The fresh air was incredible to take in, but now he had a new problem: how would he be able to get back to the barn? He was teleported straight there, so would he be able to get back? He walked outside and moved to the vehicle bay, ready to take a car out, but another group of soldiers found him and yet another gunfight broke out. |

Ko Mentions: Shadow and Dread Ko drops Dread off in his room first when they reached the farmhouse, and he watches Dread enter his room. He waits for a couple of seconds to make sure he's alright, then sets his sights to Shadow. Checking out his body out to make sure he'll be alright. "Here. Let me take you back to your room. It's the least I can do." He was confused, about everything that had happened. One minute he was Ibex, and the next he was back at the farmhouse. All of this doesn't make sense to him. None of it does. Ko places a hand on Shadow's shoulder, and was quiet throughout the small journey. "I'm going outside to get some air." He muttered to the blind man before taking off outside. Hands shoved deep in his pockets as he reaches the barn. Entering the building, loving the smell of hay and the utter silence the barn gives. Ko climbs up on the ladder to second floor of the barn, going over to a weardown spot in the hay. Indicating that he's been here before. Ko takes a seat, grabbing the folded quilted blanket he brought here to wrap around his shoulders. He does hide here when things get too stressful back at the house with someone wanting to kill someone for whatever reason. Nakao Mentions: Lucille and Ahyma Nakao returns back to the farmhouse after his romantic outing with Lucille. It wasn't really romantic, since they went to a bar, Nakao getting into a fight when some asshole flirted with Lucille, and they both got kicked out. It was the aftermath of the whole event that made everything worthed it, but he's not one to go into further details on what they did. That's when he hears someone call for help, and being the asshole that he was, wanted to go laugh at the poor bastard instead of help. Going over to the noise, only to burst out laughing when he sees his daughter stuck in a ditch. "Having troubles there?!?" Calling out to Ahyma, a grin on his face. |

Jericho: Mentions: Ero Looking around for a brief moment, he ripped apart the car that he was initially using for cover before running forward and charging the unit of soldiers that he was fighting with, bullets bouncing off of his now thickened armor. After he finished them off, he turned back to Ero and to his horror, another soldier had picked her up and was trying to take her back inside. With heavy steps he chased down the soldier and properly crushed his head before picking up his love. Looking around once again, he placed her in the passenger seat of an unmarked car and took off his armor and placed it in the backseat before getting the car into gear and taking off, hoping to find his way back to the farm. |

Ahmya and Lucille I M: Nakao and Karasu Ahmya was in pain, laying in a stupid ditch she had fallen in to. She was going to be stuck there forever, which was horrible. But it didn't compare to the horrible voice that entered her ears. Nakao, her father. She opened her good eye to look up at him, having some hatred gleaming in it. "Fuck." She grumbled, hating that he was now her only hope. She noticed Lucille, who was technically her step mother she supposed, which sucked worse. "What the hell do you think? Think I got myself stuck in there for shits and giggles?" She groaned as she slowly managed to stand. "Either get me the hell out, or fuck off." She felt her eye, wincing as she felt that it was bleeding again.
~~~~~~~~
Lucille raised an eyebrow. She was looking down at Ahmya, who had fallen in a hole. The woman was being very nasty towards Nakao, which she didn't like. She rubbed a hand on Nakao's lower back, critical eyes studying Ahmya. She knew she was his daughter, but that's not why she didn't like her. She was being rude to Nakao. She wouldn't make the choice for him, he could do what he wanted with her, either help her or leave her.
"I'm going to go check on Karasu, I'll see you back at the house." She mumured to Nakao, smiling as she focused on him. She kissed him on the lips quickly before she started to walk back towards the house. She hoped Nakao would join her soon, she yearned to spent more time in his company, especally after the events earlier. |

Jericho: Mentions: Ero After a bit of driving around, he was finally able to get back to the barn. He hopped out of the car and carefully carried the sleeping Ero out of the car and towards the house. It was a sight to see; he was carrying her bridal style towards the barn, but he had more things to deal with, most notably one of his newer abilities triggering and letting him see into her past, or more specifically from the three weeks that she was captured and seperated from him. He stopped and closed his eyes to focus on the memory, with a few tears running down his face when he saw how incredibly miserable Ero was without him. Yes it was probably due to her obsession, but he also knew that love also had a part in the misery, and when the flashback ended he soldiered into the barn, hoping to find a bedroom to let Ero rest while the sedatives wore off. |
