((Gomen....I'll fix it..))
The demon looks at the body. "This isn't Myrr....." the demon grows. He calls to his sniper units. "YOU IDIOTS!! HOW CAN YOU NOT TELL IF ITS A HALF DRAGON OR A GOD damn BUM?! GRAAH!! THAT'S IT! WHEN WE GET BACK TO BASE, YOU GUYS ARE IN BIIIIIG TROUBLE!!" The sniper units shake in fear. They were in big trouble....really big trouble.
The demon growls in anger. "We'll find another female. We will. For our master we will." He mutters. Then he disappears.

Shive's heart felt as though it had snapped. The only other love of his life had just become a monster, completely under the control of another, and he could do nothing about it. Tears streamed down his face as he grabbed the claws, and choked,
"Myrr... I don't know if you can hear me, but... if you can, please... snap out of it. Fight this thing's control. Please Myrr... I can't lose you."
Evihs looked on with interest, then scoffed and hovered in the air.
"damn, Armageddon. That's low. I like the way you think." He stated, grinning (well, as much as he could grin, anyway).
Shive merely held the claws in his grip, staring the hybrid dead in the eyes. He slowly let go of its claws, then stepped backwards a bit. He couldn't do it. Even if this thing wasn't Myrr anymore, he just couldn't fight her.
If she's lost, then I have no reason to live anyway. He thought with remorse.

"I... I don't... want to... hurt you..." Shive could have sworn he heard Myrr's voice tremble from the monster she was turned into. "He's... He's... too... strong... Arma... geddon... He's... controlling... me..." The abomination's form started to shake as if having a seizure, and Armageddon snarled, closing his remaining eye to increase his concentration. The shaking stopped and the hybrid lunged again socking Shive in the stomach and winding the dragonkin. She reared her leg up, kicking Shive away, before walking towards him again.
Armageddon mentally growled, 'damn, her spirit is strong, it will take most of my concentration to keep her from going rouge.'

Shive screamed, his eyes losing their luster.
"FIGHT HIM, MYRR! I KNOW YOU CAN FIGHT HIM OFF IF YOU TRY! PLEASE! I CAN'T STAND TO LET YOU GO!"
Evihs laughed again, then leaned over to Armageddon and asked,
"Want me to shut him up?"
As Shive was kneeling, his soul torn apart, he heard a voice in the back of his mind.
You wish to save her... yet you cannot. Not at this level.
Shive paused, then asked,
Who're you?
If you had been listening, you'd know. But it seems you can finally hear me now...
Shive's eyes slowly drifted to Ragnarok, and they widened.
No way... He thought.

Armageddon opened his eye to look at Evihs.
"No thank you, it's not his screaming that's disrupting me, Myrr's spirit is stronger then I expe- YARGH!" The demon screamed in surprise. At that same moment, Xeno-Myrr shrieked clutching her head with her hands.
"Get... Out... of... my... head..." the hybrid growled lowly, thrashing. Armageddon snarled, redoubling his power, but his newest 'puppet' was still resisting.
"damn, Evihs, I'll have to retreat with my new servent for a while, I need to deal some respect into her. If you wish to join, you know what energy signature to look for while teleporting." Armageddon set as he took time to right himself. He grabbed Myrr with his jaws, light enough that the grip wouldn't hurt her, but strong enough that she couldn't escape. More of Armageddon's necro mist filled the area as he made good his escape.

Shive screamed, stretching his hand out as if to grab Myrr, but collapsed, a sobbing shell of his former self.
That's.... two, I've lost now... He thought helplessly.
Evihs merely scowled at Shive then shrugged.
"Meh. He's had enough punishment for today." He muttered, than vanished.
Shive lay on the ground, clutching helplessly at the dirt. His eyes lost all shine, luster, or hope in them as he closed his eyes, tears billowing out of them once more. He bared his teeth in anguish and frustration, and his chest suddered with each sob.
I'm sorry Myrr...
(( o/' Angels fall without you there... o/' ))

"SHIVE!" Solranous' bellow came through as he dropped in on the Xenomorph hive, Kisara and Onyste following suit quickly.
"damn it... What the hell happened? I sensed Myrr here, and then she disappeared, and then she was back again. What the hell is going on!? And most importantly, are you alright!?" Solranous was panicking, and he felt he had good reason to.
"We would have been here sooner, but it was hard for Solranous to find who we were looking for." Kisara supplied, staying a short distance away from Shive and Solranous. Something bad happened, something very bad... And she didn't know what...

Shive just couldn't answer. He was too heartbroken to even breathe correctly. He pulled his face up and gave them such a look of despair that would make Daedalus pause.
Solranous suddenly felt something breathing on his neck, and the three turned to see Evihs standing there in all of his Hollow-ness. He laughed,
"Aw, he's just bitchy 'cause his girlfriend was mutated into a freak of nature and taken away by Armageddon. That's all. Oh, and by the way, hi."
Evihs glanced around, and he suddenly stared at Solranous, then at the dragon's sword. He let out a low growl as his eyes narrowed, and he snarled at Solranous,
"Keep that damn thing away from me."
He then vanished without a trace, leaving the four to stew in their thoughts. Shive started to get up, but stopped when all fours. He bit his lip and shuddered again, more teardrops splashing onto the ground.

'Hollows, nothing good ever comes from 'em.' Something hissed that only Solranous could hear.
That voice again? From the sword... Just who is it. Solranous thought.
'Eh? You hear me? About god-forsaken time! Do you realize just how long you have made me wait!? I am not a very patient Zanpoktou.'
Solranous blinked, pulling out his sword. "Z-Zanpoktou? What the hell is that?"
The dragon could feel something 'blink' back in surprise. 'VHAT THE HELL IS VRONG VITH YOU!? YOU BE A HOLDING ONE RIGHT NOW!!!!' the voice screamed at him, causing Solranous to flinch physically.
"Ouch! No need to shout!" Solranous replied back.
'Vell, now that you hear me, its time for you to learn all of the secrets of this sword. I need to arrange a training spot to make sure you and Shive can unlock you power at the same time. You'll need all you can get to defeat Armageddon.'
"That name again... Who is Armageddon?"
'I can't say for sure, but he's shown himself most often as a demon wizard. And I don't mean the 'smokes and mirrors' tricks'
"That bastard mutated my daughter..."
'Aye, and you want revenge, don't you? You'll need to harness the power of a Zanpoktou to defeat him. And I can't say if there is a reversal to Myrr's transformation.'
In his mind, Solranous cracked all of his knuckles at once. "When the hell do we start training?"
'You are ready to go, but Shive still needs to snap out of his 'oh my, I have no life left, let me just rot away while I tell myself how bad my life is' attitude. 'Cause that ain't the Shive I've heard of.'
"And its not the Shive I know."
"Shive... I swear, we'll get her back. We'll find a way to get the Myrr we all care about back. Hell can freeze a thousand times over before I let the two of you down. I don't care how powerful Armageddon is, we'll kill him." Solranous growled. He held a hand out to help Shive back to his feet. "I can't do it alone, I'm counting on you for this. More importantly, Myrr's counting on you. You say you been dead three times before, This can't be any worse then that. Now come on, and get yourself together!"

His eye twitched. He slowly staggered to his feet, his eyes hidden from view. His hands clenched, and he turned around, his eyes still hidden from view by shadows. They flared open, and Shive's iris's were...
Orchid?!
The dust beneath him swirled a bit, and he hissed,
"You have NO idea..."
He stepped forward towards Solranous, then shoved his face near Solranous's, and growled,
"I may have died several times before, and I doubt you know what that's like. But I've lost too many people I've cared about in my life, and THAT is a THOUSAND times worse than dying..."
He turned around and continued as the dust died down.
"I'm just not going to bother anymore."
He started to leave, but, for some reason, he couldn't move. He wanted to leave, but something inside told him not to. It was no Hollow, no Zanpoktou, no otherwordly psychic force. No, something else clawed at the back of his mind...
He just stood there, and stared at the ground, trembling as he bit his lip.
Why can't I move?
((Orchid= reiatsu))

'Shive... Please... Don't leave me like this...' Myrr's voice called, seemingly distant, Only the dragonkin could hear her. 'Please... Don't... don't abandon me... Please...' her voice faded, as if she been taken to far out of range.
"damn it, Shive! Stop being such a pansy! What happened to the Shive that help us fight the Xenomorphs? What happened to the Shive who swore Revenge on his brother, and always had his companions with him, no matter what? What happened to the Shive that snapped me out of my rampage, potentially saving millions?" Solranous said. Why was the dragonkin just throwing everything away? Was his life truely that horrible?

Shive merely stood there, his eyes wide seemingly in shock.
He's right, you know. And if you truly cared for her, you'd at least try to save her. There's still a chance. A voice spoke to him.
Shive glanced at Ragnarok, and the voice stated,
No, that's not my name. Go with the dragon, and you shall learn what it is. Learn it, and save the one you care for the most.
Shive choked, his eyes closing. He recalled all the times he had spent with Myrr... the hot springs, the river, the Zoanoid fight, the Xenomorph invasion... the Christamas party...
Shive's fists clenched, and he turned to Solranous, his eyes glowing orchid again.
"Let's go." He stated flatly, but with determination in his eyes.

Solranous smiled. That was the Shive he knew. "We'll have to train in somewhere secluded, somewhere where Armageddon will never think to ambush us. The best bet we have, is the site of the crater in the mountains. No life normally grows there, so Armageddon shouldn't be paying any attention to that area. Let's go." The dragon jumped, flying out from the demolished power plant and flying towards the mountains. Kisara glanced to Shive.
"I'll be waiting back at Solranous' house. Do me a favor when you fight Armageddon. Fry him right in the face with that acid of yours for what he did." With that said, Onyste turned to one of the walls, white pods on her fore ankles and chest firing grappling hooks to the top. The false dragon hoisted herself and her rider to the top, before sprinting away.

((Hey Azure, not that it's a big deal, but it's 'rogue' not 'rouge'. Rogue=uncontrolled. Rouge=red makeup. I kid you not.))
Solranous kept flying when suddenly the sky in front of him grew bright, brighter than if he had been flying into the sun. It was WarAngel. Her helmet was off, and her 'new' face could be seen. Her face was the same, yet somehow holier, prettier...more Angelic. Her hair was also different: it looked like strands of light blue glass that glowed faintly, and was now long enough to reach her waist.
"You are going to need help." She said, her voice filled with soothing power. "Unfortunately, I cannot assist you. I must destroy Armageddon. But my counterpart here will assist you in training and in fighting Armageddon, should he still be alive by that time. However, he may vanish on you to come to my aid."
As she said this, she gestured to the right, where Aphostos was hovering with a single pair of his own Angel wings.
"I am sorry for your friend, but she will have to die if she fights me. But you need not worry: GOD has her soul, her body is worthless. Especially in its wretched state. Farewell, for now."
Then she donned her helmet, letting her hair flow out from underneath it this time, and vanished in a plume of light.
"So, where to?" Aphostos asked.

(OOC: ...Whoops...)
"There is a crater site in the mountains, that is our destination. Shive and I are going to unlock our Zanpoktous so that we can use there strength when next we encounter Armageddon. I'm quite sure that you, being a demi-god, already know just what he can do. And... you know that Myrr is, or perhaps was, given the situation of the timeline, my daughter. I have to get her back by defeating Armageddon. I have a very bad feeling that he is hiding his true potential for power. To raise the dead in such a way that they are sentient and capable of blending in with truely alive beings. Even I have a hard time comprehending that kind of power... It defies all logic, science, and perhaps even magic itself. So... If you can help us train, it would be very much appreciated."
After speaking Solranous waited for a confirmation from Aphostos before continuing on.
