(Ythala:)"Hello? It's me, Tokugawa... I think it's about time we get ready to leave." Tokugawa said, his voice soft, and a bit hoarse, even
"O-oh!" Ythala said. Slowly she sat up, still sitting nearly on top of Okita as she stared at the door. Slowly, she looked up at her."Alright, Ytha-" As Okita was about to speak, they were cut off by someone knocking on their door.
"Hello? It's me, Tokugawa... I think it's about time we get ready to leave." Tokugawa said, his voice soft, and a bit hoarse, even.
"No... No, I'm not ready, Ythala..." Okita said bluntly, breathing out."O-oh!" Ythala said. Slowly she sat up, still sitting nearly on top of Okita as she stared at the door. Slowly, she looked up at her.
"A-are you ready...?" She murmured. Her voice sounded almost fearful. Gently, she wrapped an around Okita, clinging to her tightly.
Ythala stared up at Okita, her breath catching in her throat. The idea of no longer having to fear Adam.. It filled her with a sense of hope she hadn't felt in a long time. She knew it was dangerous, knew it couldn't be resolved peacefully...yet...she couldn't help but feel comforted by Okita's words. As if everything would be ok as long as she was with her. Slowly, she moved upward, floating beside Okita."No... No, I'm not ready, Ythala..." Okita said bluntly, breathing out.
"But I can't back down. I need to defeat Akaza. And then I'll defeat Adam..." No, she wouldn't just defeat him. She would tear him limb with her bare hands, tear out his insides, crush him into nothing, whatever it was. It was clear and apparent... She would stop at nothing until Adam had been completely and thoroughly destroyed.
"I will, Ythala... I will..." Okita said, hugging Ythala softly, gently running her hand through Ythala's hair.Ythala stared up at Okita, her breath catching in her throat. The idea of no longer having to fear Adam.. It filled her with a sense of hope she hadn't felt in a long time. She knew it was dangerous, knew it couldn't be resolved peacefully...yet...she couldn't help but feel comforted by Okita's words. As if everything would be ok as long as she was with her. Slowly, she moved upward, floating beside Okita.
"...please..." Ythala said quietly. She stared down at the ground, gripping Okita's shoulder.
"...please...s-stop him...".
"Come on, let's get up..." Kinzer said, grabbing her hand in an attempt to pull her up with him.Rhongomyniad twitched, visibly wincing and breathing heavily, and clearly having done this for much of the time she'd slept
"They went well..." Gabriel said with a smile, her wings gently fluttering as she began to move.Terevion was walking towards Gabriel's room to pick her up before encountering her "So, how did the lores go?" Terevion asked
Rhongomyniad practically jumped, coming up swinging and would clock Kinzer in the shoulder if he didn't dodge immediately"I will, Ythala... I will..." Okita said, hugging Ythala softly, gently running her hand through Ythala's hair.
Meanwhile, Rory and Kiara entered the center of the ship, both smiling softly at each other, seeming as if they didn't even notice that anybody else was there as they looked at each other.
"Come on, let's get up..." Kinzer said, grabbing her hand in an attempt to pull her up with him.
"They went well..." Gabriel said with a smile, her wings gently fluttering as she began to move.
Kinzer did indeed dodge, letting go of her hand as he did so. "...Rough night, I assume?"Rhongomyniad practically jumped, coming up swinging and would clock Kinzer in the shoulder if he didn't dodge immediately
"Good... I can tell somethings wrong besides the obvious... if you feel like you should, you should talk to Tokugawa." Terevion said genuinely as he stayed next to her
"Y-yeah...! Don't wake me up like that..." Rhongomyniad said, breathing heavily as she slumped down onto the bedKinzer did indeed dodge, letting go of her hand as he did so. "...Rough night, I assume?"
"Uh huh..." Gabriel grumbled, shaking her head as she went into child form, a form she found more comfortable, and thus, easier to relax in as her wings fluttered once more as both her and Terevion reached the center of the ship.
Ythala gently nodded, nuzzling into her neck as she took a shaky breath. She blinked rapidly, tears forming in her eyes."I will, Ythala... I will..." Okita said, hugging Ythala softly, gently running her hand through Ythala's hair.
Rhongomyniad grabbed it, clearly still recovering from her nightmare as she stood up"Yeah yeah, sorry." Kinzer said, slowly reaching out his hand so she could grab it. "Let's move quickly."
"Yes, summon them." Enkidu said, a chain slowly coming out of the ringTokugawa sighed, "Yes, I believe we should get started..." He said, turning to Gabriel and walking over to her, breathing out in relief that he could talk to her without looking up to her due to her height in Child Form.
"Your ring." Tokugawa said.
"My... ring?" Gabriel asked, tilting her head as she looked down at her ring. "What about it...?"
"It has... many, many people within it." Tokugawa said, flinching slightly as he glanced at the ring. "...I don't exactly... know what they are, though..."
"Are you talking about Shadow Soldiers...?" Gabriel asked, still seemingly confused.
"Yes! That is what they are called! They feel very similar to myself... In terms of... darkness. If that makes sense. Please summon them." Tokugawa asked, "I could sense them before and I recognize some people that may be able to help you grow in strength... But I cannot call them myself, obviously."
"...Summon them?" Gabriel asked, scratching her head.
(Poke.)David said nothing. Simply staring at the boy as he waited for him to continue. His gaze shifted slightly, glancing at Okita for a few moments before looking away, his eyes focused on the ground.
Masayoshi flashed a small, forced smile, before nodding.
Ythala leaned in closer to Okita, unsure how to treat the boy after everything that happened. She said nothing, simply looking away from him.
Lance who had walked in last, nodded. Having spent most of the time simply practicing the workouts that Metatron and David had taught him.
(Poke.)Jack just watched and listened Tokugawa
"A-alright..." She murmured. She was still visibly anxious, yet her squirming slowed as she felt Okita's touch.Okita clung to Ythala as well, more so to help comfort her. "It'll be fine, Ythala..." Okita said, glaring at Jack as Metatron sighed, rubbing the bridge of his nose as he glanced at Jack as well.
Gabriel nodded, breathing out once more. "Alright... How do I do this...? No idea... I think I remember Belial saying something whenever he summoned them... Something like... Arise...?" Gabriel thought.
"Uh... Arise." Gabriel said, nothing happening.
"I uh... Arise." Gabriel said once more, nothing happening again.
"How the hell do I get this thing to work...!?!" She shouted in frustratration.
(The ship's armor is like 7-C at bare minimum Midas lmao)David didn’t waste any time. Immediately he grabbed Gabriel, scooping her into his arms. He smashed through a nearby wall on the ship, pushing his gravity control to it's maximum as he flew at top speed away from the energy. The look of calm emptiness on his face was replaced with pure panic. He couldn't lose another one...not her.
"..I-is she going to be...o-okay?" Ythala whimpered.
