Willow nodded and then looked at the box and frowned. "From you huh..." she said looking back at her father. "Sanya and I don't have any real... hereditary traits." she said while Sanya looked away, a bit upset. "We were created from his blood but..." she said shaking it off. "Nevermind. There isn't time to dwell on things like this now. Ill head out. Sanya, lets go." she said and Sanya stood up rushing to her side. The two walked out of the cave, Sanya looking a bit upset. Willow, mad.
"Sister... Are we real girls?" Sanya asked making Willow stop. Willow looked at her and shook her head. "No, not at all. We weren't created to be 'normal'. So, stop dwelling on it. It will only make you upset and I don't feel like dealing with your crying right now..." she said walking ahead of her. Sanya looked at her sister and shook her head. "But, its bothering you too..." she said softly, catching up to her sister.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Diabound woke up minute later. He sat up and sighed. He could hear the whispers of Nocturne screaming in his mind and they made being up almost unbearable. He looked around then at the table nearby. There, was a box. It was neatly crafted, with small angelic designs on it. He walked over to it then opened it and sighed, "Strawberries... They were always your favorite Adrianne..." he said to himself closing the box. He looked at the bag nearby and saw the petals in it and smiled.
"Trying to hold this back huh? I hope it works for infections this late... Oh well..."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The voice laughed at her attempt even though it was working perfectly. "That's quite amusing... No matter, Thanatos isn't required of me much longer anyways. He can be your pet again... As it always has been..." as his voice echoed through the makeshift hallways, the eyes faded like smoke from a fire being put out. The darkness itself burned away, leaving a gray concrete-like area beneath. The madness was being burned away.
"(We... We did it! Now, all we have to do is get into your body and that will allow us to leave him and we can defeat him with ease! Let's go!)"

Kira walked back into the room to see Diabound up and looking at the table. She was carrying a bundle of blankets over her arm. She sighed, shaking her head. By this point it had been a few weeks since she had told him she was pregnant, and they hadn't so much as talked about it. Too much was going on. And she felt wierd bringing it up in front of the girls. She put the blankets on a chair next to him and sat down at another chair on the other side of the table. She was slightly out of breath from all the walking and feeling a little winded. No pain, just, even for angels, a pregnancy was draining. Especially for them, considering how fast they grow in a short amount of time. Alot more taxing. She was already nearly halfway through, and was showing pretty well, but she didn't let it bother her, nor did she let it interfere with her work.
Her mind wandered to the little bit of conversation she heard between the two sisters before they left. It made her wonder.
"The girls. You made them the same way you made Placid, yes?"
------------------------------------------------
Nuriko smiled. "We're already in my body. Just gotta realign positions..." and closed her eyes, concentrating.
Thanatos had been kneeling in a cave towards the front. He wasn't showing any signs of pain, but he wasn't moving either. He sighed, then closed his eyes before starting to change. Shrinking, becoming more woman-esque. Soon enough, there was a woman standing where the monster had been, her indigo eyes scanning the room. It was empty. It appeared they were in the same room she was in last time. She sighed, stumbling forward. The purification and transformation took slightly more out of her than she expected, as she slowly walked out of the cave. As soon as she reached the entrance, she spread her wings and flew off.

"That's correct. However, they are slightly different. They are more powerful than him, they are more along the lines of the FINISHED product." he said sighing. He looked at Kira's body and noticed it changing slightly. It made him look away and he became anxious, "I see the little one is growing at a healthy rate..." he said looking back at the vial on the table. He picked it up and shook his head before almost collapsing. "I... I am weak still..." he said sitting back on the cot nearby. He began to become dizzy and started to sweat a little. "This is irritating..." he said looking at Kira. His eyes looking at hers, hoping she wasn't able to see the encompassing negativity from the fatigue
"You look worried... Is something wrong?"

Kira smiled, picking the blankets back up and moving over to Diabound, sitting next to him on his cot. She put a blanket on him and set the extras next to him.
"I brought these out for you. You need to rest. Oh..." remembering his comment about the baby. "Yeah. A little girl. I hope you don't mind the name Khirai." she rested her head against his shoulder, smiling and relaxing a little. Then at his last comment, she looked a little sad.
"Isn't there a chance for them to live a semi-normal life one day, if they wanted to? I just know it bothers them. More then they like to let on. and I figured if Placid managed it..." she trailed off, looking into the distance before resting back against the wall.

"That name is perfect, like you." He said smiling a bit. When she had asked him about the girls, his facial expression changed. He was aware of their wants to be 'normal'. But, he couldnt let them be that way... yet. He looked at her and then watched as her expression changed, becoming sad over the thoughts of Willow and Sanya not being normal girls or living normal lives. He sat close to her and sighed.
"Your concern for them is something I thought I wouldnt see." He said smiling a little, then he couldnt hold off answering her any longer. "They could... However they would never want to leave my side as long as I am on a mission." He said sighing, knowing it wasnt fair to them. He though about the two of them. They didn't know what true love was. Romance was foriegn to them. Diabound sighed at the thought and shook his head.
"I want them to live normally. But, it wont happen as long as I live..."

She chuckled a liitle. "I am far from perfect..." then she smiled.
"I care about them because they are a part of you, in a way. They may not be entirely my children, but... " she looked off into the distance, resting her head against his shoulder as he sat near her. She reached over and held his hand.
"Only time will tell. We'll see what happens. I'll be here for you no matter what..."

willow and Sanya continued down the path and as they reached the base of the mountain the sun had hit its set. Sanya watched the sunset and smiled at its beauty. She spoke highly of the planet's beauty, some that only existed here. Though the views were small in comparison to the heavens above, but, they had their own beauty to them.
"Sister... Why is Father trying to hurt everyone...?" she asked making Willow look back at her and then away without giving her any emotional looks whatsoever. "Because, everyone hurt him." she said almost at a loss, "Because everyone hurt us... Forced us into cages..." she said it almost trying not to clam up. Sanya frowned and looked away from the sunset, trying not to remember the pain she and Willow had dealt with, being locked up like animals. But, then the Guardians ordered their execution. But, for what purpose? Because they defended themselves?
Willow became slightly irritated. Then she shook a little, trying to hold the pain back, she swallowed it. "These humans are the sacrifice of what THEY did to us. They might not care over an Island. But, once Big Brother is released... They will care when their precious planet is nothing but a desolate wasteland like its moon..." she said regretting her words slightly. Sanya sighed, "Father... Wants that?" she said almost wanting to tear up. Willow stopped and looked back at her slightly upset. "Yes... He does..." she said looking back at the mountain they had just climbed down from.
"He wants it more than anything... Payback..."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Nobody is ever perfect love..." he said sitting up a bit, trying to fight the infection. He was starting to halucinate, he could see Willow and Sanya there even though he was aware they were gone. "Wha...?" he mumbled watching as the two had picked up the vial and injected themselves with the liquid. They smiled, almost overjoyed.
"Now we ca be like you Father... Mad...." they said before they began to melt before his eyes. He shook his head and the laughter came back,
"You see the pain you are causing around you yet you care not who it affects... You are such the cold father like I knew you were..."
"...Ngh!"
"Whats wrong? Cat got your tongue? No worries, in time I will remove it from your mouth with my bare hands..."
Diabound stood up and looked around the room and it became dark, he made his way to the table and looked at the vial and stared at it. He began to see Kaiden's face, as a child. It grew into his age when Placid held him back, then threw each other into Paradox. He held his eyes shut and tight, trying to ignore the laughter around him, he could hear the beast clawing at him, trying to break him. But, he couldn't allow it. Not until it was removed, killed.
"Y-You... need to leave...!" he said to Kira as she sat there. "Get out of here... please..." he said as the laughter continued to get louder and louder in his head. He began to shake, his head began to throb as the laughter started to get louder. He grunted in pain, he held his head tight, feeling the madness becoming stronger. He looked around the room, eyes wide with fear.
"This... This isn't normal... This is no infection... He is calling to me!"

Kira gazed at him. She stood up and walked over to her bag on the table, reaching out and pulling something small out of her bag. "You are stronger than this Albert... since when have you ever let anything control you?" She turned toward him as she said it, eyeing him seriously.
"If this isn't an infection, then you have the ability to block him out yourself. You're giving into him, don't give in... You have to hold this back, at least for a little while longer! You know I'm not going to leave you." she stepped toward him, wrapping her arms around him gingerly. As she did so she reached up behind his neck and clasped a chain together. As she stepped back, around Diabounds neck was a beautiful silver chain, which appeared to be blessed with incredibly powerful holy magic. It glimmered a pale white. On the chain was a ring, very beautiful. Had a holy diamond in the center with a gem on each side, one flaming red, and one a deep vibrant blue. On the inside, there was an engraving in angelic script which read 'together forever.'
"You gave me that years ago, when we were happy. I kept it all these years because even if we were separated, I still cared about you. I had decided when I returned to you that I should give it back to you, should you decide you want our life to move forward one day, if we survive all this. If not?" she smiled, tears falling down her cheeks as she stood in front of him. "Then at least I will die by your side." as she kissed his forehead.

Diabound cringed and his mouth opened, speaking a voice not his own. It was deep, horrid, and grave; "You think he can hear you? He is being fed my influnce slowly. I am eternal... Mother." the voice said as Diabound began to kneel on the floor, the voice continued to berate her further, "You are in love with such petty emotional beings. Unlike him, I have evolved to something way more than emotions can stop. I am your baby, the one who will soon cause more death as he did before... Now, take him. Know that as long as you all remain on this island... on this planet... You are all going to die by my hands..." and with that the voice ended and Diabound hit the floor and laid there gagging, trying to catch his breath.
"I.... I can't... My body can't handle this...!" he said as he saw the diamond, he remembered what he was there for. The pain was just an obstacle now. His body, another obstacle. This wasn't sickness, it was possession. Nocturne wants a body to become more powerful as it was when he and Placid were one. Though, now, it seems it will add to whats already greater than before. Diabound stood up struggling, leaning against the table again.
"I don't think... I can cure this." he said looking at Kira and his heart racing. "Nocturne is eating at me alive, because he knows it can work... But, we HAVE to release him..." he said stubbling to the bed again.
"Oh, you WANT me around?"
"Not in ways you would want..."
"Oh, so you can kill me right?"
"What?!"
"Oh? You thought it wasn't that obvious?! Why would ANYONE want me revived?! For their leisure?! For REVENGE?! HA! I knew what you were doing the second you came here! You aren't here for revenge! You are here to settle mistakes you made! To clean your slate! TO REMOVE ME FROM EXISTANCE!"
"H-How did you know I was planning that?!"
"...Hehe, because father... You just told me..."
Diabound's eyes grew wide, and his heart raced faster than before. The laughter of Nocturne ringing around him. Diabound sat there and shook his head and grunted in pain looking at Kira, hoping she would understand what he was going to say.
"Now... Its time to share what my plan is..."

Kira listened to Nocturnes insults quietly, only bothered by the fact that he was using Diabound to deliver them. As he insulted her, she smiled sadly. "A mother always loves her son, no matter what kind of monster they are." She watched him, her eyes sad. She didn't like seeing him like this.
She moved towards him, kneeling in front of him, holding his hand and watching him.
"I'm here. I'm listening."

"My plan is simply put. I want to control Nocturne and kill him. Simply put, cleanse him. Purge him from existence..." he said looking down ashamed. "I want to put him down, to give him peace..." he said tearing up, "I want Kaiden to finally forgive me... To be at ease finally..." tears fell down his cheeks and he leaned forward as the laughter rang through his mind.
"I want the heartbreak that I caused everyone to end...!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the two girls reached the storefront area of the town, Sanya continued to stare at the pendant of their parents. "Willow... Is there anything we can do?" she said causing Willow to turn to her. "What do you mean?" she asked Sanya putting the locket away. Her blue eyes saddened by the actions of that day. "Well, I mean can we try to convince father to let it go? I mean... I don't want anyone to get hurt..." she said and Willow shook her head.
"You are to soft and easy to forgive Sanya," she said looking over the strawberries, "Doesn't it bother you that they forced us into a cell for a year with barely any visits from Father? That they barely fed us because they didn't find it 'worth their time'?!" she said squishing a strawberry in her hand. Sanya looked at the fruit and sighed, "I don't agree with what they did, but, they... wanted to keep themselves safe... They may have been cruel but can it really be that easy? An eye for an eye?" she said paying for a bag of the ripest strawberries. Willow stood back and sighed, "It is in his eyes... To him, we are everything to him. This... Is what he wants so there is no stopping him." she looked at Sanya and the two started towards a florist.
"So, we should accept the inevitable... Everyone here is gonna die..."

Kira smiled, holding him close to her. Then she sighed, not sure how to say this.
"We can't do this alone, love. Think about it. Think back to all those years when we had to seal him away in the first place. Who was the only one who had the strength to stand up to him? We need help... " she closed her eyes, afraid of the reaction she would get from this. "What if we got Nuriko to help us? She was the one who put him in there in the first place. And she LOVED him. If anyone can help us set things right, it would be her..."

"Nuriko..." he said sighing, "That girl... has caused more problems in my life than I can count..." he chuckled thinking about her proposal before really thinking about it. She would know as well as Axel where to obtain these souls. If they don't get them soon and quell Nocturne SOON then he would be able to break through the seal without any issues and there would be no way to seal him up again, causing the Apocalypse. He sat there shaking his head, "Would she help us...? I mean, we are potentially bring hell on earth to life..." he said looking over to see Sanya and Willow standing in the entryway. Willow, looking upset and Sanya, saddened.
"Father... We need to talk..." Willow said, standing firmly in place. "We need to stop these acts... Go home..." she began as Sanya nodded in agreement. "We... We don't want to hurt anyone..." she said it then gulped. Diabound sighed, knowing they wouldn't understand why he was risking the lives of everyone for this.
"Girls... Please... Just know what I have planned doesn't involve hurting any of you... Trust me..." he said taking Kira's hand and holding it slightly tighter than he had in the past. He was trying to give them hope, however, it was almost false. As he finished his last set of words his eyes became heavy.
"I promise to protect you any way I can. I will promise you that..." he said falling asleep. Willow looked at him and sneered walking off out of the cave. Sanya looked at her then back at Diabound. Tears began to fall as she tossed the petals on the table and she walked off and sat in a corner, huddled up alone.
"This... This feeling, what is it...? Im tired of this pain..."
