''like i'd let her try and best me.... beside's you're being a buzz kill..'' she muttered, twitching slightly as her eye's glowed with her poisonous and murderous venom filled gaze.
dark shifted back and looked at magnolia a bit worriedly, ear's pinned back slightly.
~~~~~~~~~
tony gritted his teeth and clutched the grip on his sword.
he unsheathed it and the blade suddenly sprang to life with bright light across the blade with angelic symbol's.
''go back to hell from wench you came before my father's blade slice's your soul's right from you're very twisted core's..!'' he practically hissed.
aqua shifted to a bigger size and hissed loudly, baring her razor sharp feline teeth.

Wither looked at her, her eyes having a look at was unreadable. "It would be even worse for you to get burned, Magnolia," she said, the statement almost sarcastic but not quite. A small, small smirk began to inch its way on the corner of Wither's mouth. Magnolia was ruthless--it was one thing that the she-demon respected about her ally and one of the reasons why she didn't choose angels (or Tony) for the particular mission.
"Like you would even poison me," the fire demon cooed, her eyes sly, "You wouldn't touch a bone on my body, would you?" she purred, her eyes casting a sort of magical sense that made Wither want to draw closer to her. And she did, her face an inch from the fire demon's face. The she-demon smirked. Instead, Wither smashed her fist into the demon's forearm, snapping it with a crack and surprising the heck out of their prisoner. "Try me," Wither snapped, stepping back and nodding at Magnolia, just a little bit.

"Now, you wouldn't risk slicing one of your minions, would you?" The demons said in a unison, one of the he-demon's hands on the angel's shoulders. Symbols began to glow in front of the angel, sending blasts of angelic fury towards Tony and Spectrum. Spectrum leaped out of the way, ducking to prevent the attack from piercing through his skin. The demons snapped, a chain of darkness forming around the angel's arms just as she tried to throw a weak punch at them.

---

tony blocked the attack's with the sword and narrowed his eye's.
he made an ancient symbol with his hand's, sword still wielded as he chanted in a very cryptic and ancient angelic language.
two beam's of light split and shot from his hand's and slammed right between the he-demon's eye's and dodging the rebel's that were held hostage.
~~~~~~~~~~~
magnolia grabbed a handful of the fire demon's hair and both of her hand's and grinned evilly.
''we'll make you suffer until you talk.. now spill it before a snap one of you're f---ing leg's and rip it clean off your body!'' she laughed maniacally.

(this is when you wanna run from her, lol)

(Another reason why I like playing demons rather than angels, pft...)
Spectrum flinched, muttering a curse word under his breath as he watched the he-demons hiss in agony. They cussed up quite a storm before falling to the ground, weakly. Angels are not to be underestimated, Spectrum noted in his head, rushing over to the captured rebel and undoing the chains that bound her hands. She gasped for air as the darkness faded away from her eyes, and Spectrum looked right into her irises. She looked horror-stricken and in pain. "Are you okay?" He asked, holding her arms very softly. She nodded and rose to her feet, but stumbled. "T-thank you," she murmured to Tony, her eyes grateful. Spectrum noticed the blood that soaked through the back of her clothing just as she fainted.
~~~~~
Wither's mouth broke into a small grin that she couldn't hold back. It wasn't that she enjoyed people in pain (that was only when they deserved it), but it was something about other demons that just amused her. The fire demon let out a huff of air, turning her head sideways so she didn't have to look at Magnolia. It probably would've hurt her hair. A small, small speck of fear shone in her eyes but she did her best to cover it. "I'm a high-ranking demon, you slave. They would rip off your head--no, they'd shatter your skull if you even lay a finger on me!" The demon snapped. "Damnit, just tell us where the f---ing base is," Wither muttered.

---

tony stumbled a bit and breathed heavily, muttering to aqua before the hybrid feline strode over to the demon's on the ground, walking around spectrum and the other rebels, and stepped on the intruding demon's head's with her giant paw's.
he went over to the wall and leaned against it, his sword's blade loosing it's light as the power ebbed away from him, along with the light in his eye's.
''i forgot how draining that spell was...'' he grumbled quietly.
~~~~~~~~~~~
magnolia tilted her head all the way to the side to where she could see the fire demon's face and pouted a little.
''aw... don't you like my toxic gaze...?'' she purred psychotically, her pout changing back to her crazed and psychotic smile.
she put her knee lightly into the she demon's stomach and yanked on the hostage's arm's, dislocating both of her arm's from her shoulder's while driving her knee into the fire demon's stomach.

Spectrum easily lifted the angel up in his arms. He shot a worried glance at Tony, which was replied with an anger scold from Kaleidoscope. "Don't speak to him, Spectrum. Keep walking!" Spectrum nodded and began to walk towards the infirmary, Kaleidoscope trailing behind him.
~~~~
The fire demon squirmed, just a little bit before Wither saw the pain take impact on her face. Wither's hand went to her mouth and muted her screams, just for a moment. She released her hand and shook it out, returning both hands to her umbrella. "Ready to talk, she-demon?" Wither asked politely. The demon squirmed, fear showing greatly in her eyes this time. She turned her face away from Magnolia. "I-i'd rather you kill me," she said softly.

---

tony watched spectrum and kaleidoscope walk down the hall with the weak angel that was held captive, blinking a bit.
kaleidoscope only follows spectrum... he thought.
aqua strolled over and laid down, delicately lapping the dark demon blood on her paws to get rid of it.
''we might not be the only one's keeping a secret tony...'' she purred.
~~~~~~~~~~~
''that can be arranged... but we need you alive, so spill it..'' she hissed quietly.
she edged her hand a bit to where she about twisted the fire demon's arm around, to where she caused more pain.

Spectrum lay the angel down in the infirmary. "What happened to her?" The nurse asked quickly. "She was being mind-controlled," Spectrum replied. The girl mumbled, shifting on the infirmary bed. Her eyes opened. Kaleidoscope looked at the angel, her face stoic. "Spectrum, look at this..." Spectrum looked into the angel's eyes. Her irises were completely pitch-black as if she had been possessed by a demon, and she was grinning. She rose, her hand swirling with light magic. "You chose the wrong demons to mess with," she cooed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The fire demon's eyes widened. "I'm the key. I'm the only one that can get you in," she muttered, her lips pursed. Wither glanced at Magnolia and shrugged. "Get us in," she said smoothly, standing up with her umbrella over her head. She gradually faded into invisibility.

---

magnolia let the fire demon go and stepped back, pouting a bit while crossing her hands.
''then get going'' she said, her psychotic rampage suddenly gone.
dark sighed and pinned his ear's back.
~~~~~~~~~
tony wandered down the hall with aqua, back in her smaller size, around his shoulders purring soothingly to him.

(Sorry about the one-week hiatus on this one. I sort of felt like I reached a dead end and no matter how many times I've tried to do this one, I just gave up... Really sorry wolf >~<)

The fire demon opened her mouth. "I'm not sure if--" her voice faltered and she returned into silence. Wither's constraints of darkness slipped off of the she-demon. The fire-bound demon rubbed her arms and began to head towards the mountain, her posture and face once more pristine; her face showed poise and confidence. A mask to hide her true identity, Wither thought. The fire demon pressed her palm against the mountain.

"Enter," she said, her tone cryptic. The rocks crumbled, revealing an entrance. She continued to walk forwards into the mountain, Wither following.

"There are guards beyond that I will not take you past," she said tonelessly. Wither's eyes narrowed into a glare. "Shall we go through the torture process again?" She murmured. The fire demon grinned. "The master would've killed me anyways." Her slammed a dagger in her heart and fell to the ground, her eyes glassy. Wither bit her lip. Damn.
~~~~
Kaleidoscope thrust her muzzle into the air, a rune of light forming. Light flashed in front of the corrupted angel's eyes, blinding her. The angel screamed in pain, her wings unfolding. Angelic auras danced on her hand as she flicked it towards Spectrum. At that moment, Spectrum felt a searing pain in his shoulder. His eyes glazed over with light. Kaleidoscope? He thought, blindly forming a spell. "I've got this.

The light faded away, Kaleidoscope taking energy away from him in order to cast illusions. Spectrum's head throbbed and, with terrible timing, he switched genders. "Now? Are you serious?" Kaleidoscope thought before pain washed over him.

---

magnolia instantly broke out into quiet swearing in demon language and was pulling on her hair a bit out of frustration.
~~~~~~~~~
tony heard the screaming and was running down the hall, aqua clinging to his jacket yowling.

Potty mouth, Wither thought to herself, her eyes fixed on the hell-bound beasts that acted as guards. "They'll catch our scent sooner or later," Wither muttered silently, glancing at the fire-demon. And the corpse will only make them even more suspicious... She took the fire-demon's hand, which was already beginning to grow cold, and under her breath murmured quick words in a demon's language. The body shattered until it disparate into nothing. With slightly less energy, Wither began to strategize.
~~~~~~~
The searing pain still burned on the angel's skin. She unfurled her wings and grabbed Kaleidoscope, flying up to the top of the room. The creature made a hissing sound but did not attempt to reason with Spectrum. There usually was no reasoning with Spectrum. The angel took out a bowie knife and began to fly towards Spectrum, lashing the weapon out at the angel's shoulder.

Spectrum jerked to the side, only nicked by the weapon. Spectrum released Kaleidoscope, energy suddenly flowing through her. Dodging another slash of the knife, Spectrum slammed her foot into the angel's stomach. The angel made a strange hissing sound, dark purple runes shining on her skin. Distracted, Spectrum did not to anything to stop the bowie knife from slitting her cheek. She huffed, ignoring the pain it bestowed on her, and flew back. She dashed forward again, slamming her foot once more at the corrupted angel, nailing it in the neck.

magnolia pulled her hood over her head and stuffed her hand's into her pocket, walking on ahead of wither, dark following behind his master with his limp.
i'm done waiting...... i'm doing this my way.... she thought, doing a quick swipe of her lipstick across her lips before hiding the lipstick she had.
she chuckled a bit and stepped close to one of the guard's, looking up at the demon she was right in front of with the shadow of her hood hiding half of her face, while the other have was different from her normal face.
''so what's a handsome devil like yourself doing here....?'' she asked a bit innocently, but still with some of her demon charm as well.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
tony skidded to a stop and ran into the room, watching the fight going on with wide eye's.
aqua sat on her master's shoulder and watched along with him, tail swishing a bit from side to side.

(amazing come back ever, plus i had to do that part with magnolia.... lol)

(BRAVO)
Wither's ears popped, maybe a bit in surprise. She just smiled and shook her head, watching from behind the boulder. She stood up just a bit, her back pressing to the cold rock. Slowly she slid across its cloak that hid her from the guards, slipping from the rock to another. If I can get close enough... The large, fifteen-foot demon's veins pulsed with lava. It looked at Magnolia straight in the eyes, inches away from her face. The other guard, this one not a beast but a demon, perked up. He looked straight at the rock Wither hid behind.

Taking short, quiet breaths, the demon slowly charged up a pulse of dark energy in her palm. The male guard strut over to the rock and she leaped up, slamming her palm over her mouth and dragging him behind the rock. In surprise, he struggled and took a breath of the darkness, his veins faintly glowing with purple. Although he would've still been injured, Wither slit his throat to be sure that he died. She peeked over her shoulder above the rock, but the beast had not noticed.
~~~~~~~
The corrupted soul's pitch-black pupils flashed with malice as it stared straight at Spectrum's amber-colored gaze, bent over on the floor with blood trickling out of its mouth. "You have made a huge error in your moves, angel," the demon-angel said, smiling to show blood-stained teeth. Confused for the slightest moment, Spectrum halted. The angel, with speed that seemed to be equal to light, slammed its knife at the side of Spectrum's neck, pinning her against the wall. She felt the warmth of blood against her skin and gritted her teeth.

"I could play with you, you know," the angel cooed, putting the knife to her windpipe. It dug just a little bit harder. Kaleidoscope slowly slipped a bit more energy into Spectrum, allowing to angel to regain her confidence and strength. She unfurled her wings once more, but did not catch the angel off-guard liek she had intended to do.

Spectrum slammed her foot into the angel's shin instead and knocked her off, although it hurled a bowie knife into her right wing. She grabbed the knife and slit the corrupted angel's throat, flinching and looking away as she did so.

(REVIIIIIIVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEDDDDD)

magnolia grabbed a hold of the guard's collar and forced a full on kiss onto the unsuspecting demon, her eye's open and lighting up with the toxic sign's.
her lipstick lit up a bright toxic green as his vein's glowed the same color.
magnolia broke away and let the demon go, backing away as he fell down.
she grabbed a napkin out of her pocket and left a lipstick mark on it, putting it onto the back of the demon.
~~~~~
tony ran in and went to spectrum's side, putting his hand over the wound on the side of her neck before muttering something, and the wound healed all the way to where the corrupted angel's bowie knife dug.
''a-are you alright....?'' he asked worriedly.
aqua kept an eye on the corrupted angel on the ground growling slightly.

(OHMYGOSH ITS ALIVE WHOA)
"Ah. Yes. You killed him," Wither said, trying to retain her poise in the situation. To be honest, it had surprised her. Speaking quickly off the top of her mind, she smiled curtly and scanned the premises once more. She whipped out her umbrella, the veil falling over them, keeping them from being seen. Wither glanced sharply to her side to find the bright orange from before on her shoulder. Wither huffed, sweeping her hand swiftly at the creature, knocking it off. It leaped back onto her head, laying there comfortably. She sighed, moving towards the pitch-black arch grudgingly.
------
"Yes," she said choppily, looking at the other angel with guilt. "She was innocent, Tony. I killed her." Spectrum looked towards the ground. Kaleidoscope slipped into Spectrum's lap.

---

magnolia chuckled as she walked along beside wither, crossing her arm's as she grinned in satisfaction.
''oh how wonderful it is to use my specialty again! and to be out and about in this revolting place, so many horrible memories here~'' she hummed rather cheerfully.
~~~~~
''spectrum it had to be done.... once someone goes corrupt like that they can't be saved... i've seen it happen before to an angel......'' he muttered, his voice catching slightly at the last part.
he pulled her into a hug and held her close after he healed her, trembling slightly.
''h-hey.... i.. i need to tell you something... meet me at my room here in a few, i'll have aqua sitting outside to help you find it better..'' he mumbled, his voice shaking a bit.
he cupped her cheek gently and kissed her on the forehead, then got up and headed to his room with aqua following, shrinking back to her original size.

Wither simply chuckled, out of both amusement and sheer surprise. "It's a hell of a place, isn't it?" She added cheerfully. Wither spun her parasol out of sheer habit, albeit the creature that had insisted on following her. "If you mind?" She said a bit scornfully, swatting at her head. The creature purred sarcastically, sweeping its tail across her hair.
--------
Spectrum stood there blinked, Kaleidoscope at her side. "Get up, Spectrum. Might as well go." Spectrum nodded, stretching out her wings a bit as she stood up. She turned the hall, trying to navigate her way to the room.

---

magnolia looked at wither and blinked, her lip twitching into a crazed looking smile before she broke out into a maniacal laugh, wrapping her arm's around herself.
''oh that make's my side's hurt!!'' she laughed.
dark snickered at what wither had said and grinned.
~~~~~~
tony went into his room and left the door cracked open enough so aqua could get in after spectrum and her companion got there.
he paced restlessly and had his arm's crossed, his one hand covering his mouth while he stared at the ground.
think, think, think.... how can i tell her who i really am.....? i've kept my true identity secret for so long... who know's how she'll react.. he thought, a bit scared.

"I told you it was to the left! But did you listen, Spectrum? No. No, you didn't. You've got to have more trust in me, I swear... Not to mention, your memory and navigation skills are utter crap!" Kaleidoscope huffed in annoyance, flicking her tail sleekly.
"Oh, shut up. It's a big place! We were bound to get lost eventually," Spectrum grumbled. Kaleidoscope slipped in front of her, reaching the slightly open door. Spectrum sighed and knocked on the door before poking her head in.
"Hey... sorry we took a bit," Spectrum murmured tediously, her face pinking.
"I wonder whose fault that is..."
Shut up, Kaleidscope.
---------
Ignoring their lack of sanity, Wither moved on to the elevators. The glass doors opened automatically with a bell's ring, opening to a small space.
"I've always despised this thing," Wither said, sighing. She pressed the 'A-B' button, holding the elevator door open for Magnolia and Dark.
