It had been a few days since she had left Diabounds mountain cave after getting her hand and arm fixed. He had done a much better job of bandaging it, and it was still rather tight. She avoided using that arm as much as possible, so as to not upset it anymore. She hadn't seen much of anyone in those days. Rei had left after she started staying there, wanting to give her time to herself. She still wasn't entirely sure if that was what she needed, but it got her away from her family. Except for Hikari, who stopped by on her way up the mountain once the other day. Nuriko stood at the edge of a small ledge next to the beach. Her face was mostly expressionless.
She found herself staring off into the sunset, humming the tune to a very familiar song. As the sun set, she turned and walked into the forest, wandering into the deepest parts of the forest. Standing on the edge of the dead space in the forest, her hand twitched. Her hair blew in the breeze. She found herself wondering if she'd ever be able to get herself back under control. She sighed, closing her eyes.

Nocturne was standing in the negative zone and the energy was flowing freely with him. His eyes were shut, his mind was fluctuating with pure madness. He could feel the darkness coming over him, the seal was breaking. He opened his eyes and drew his blade. The zone became stronger and the deep energy became violent. His heart began to race, but, through that energy, he felt her. He turned toward the forest, seeing her slightly. His eyes grew white, and his temples tensed.
"S-Stupid... Woman....!" he said grunting loudly. The zone began to shake as laughter echoed through it. The darkness was here, and Nocturne was losing the battle. "You think being here was the smart move? Please... Humor me on the reasons for your stupidity!" the voice rang through and it shook Nocturne at his core, causing him to fall to his knees. "I... I won't let you win! You aren't taking me again!" he roared, as his eyes began to glow. "And who is going to stop me? You realize there isn't a person willing to do so..." the voice crawled to a halt. Nocturne looked up and toward Nuriko and screamed. "No! LEAVE HER ALONE!" he yelled out in pain. The zone became even more violent, and the sound of ominous chuckling came over.
"Its time..."

Nuriko stopped and turned towards the noise. She had been incredibly surprised that she hadnt felt Nocturne earlier, especially in the state he was in. Her mind started racing. She was unsure of what to do. If she had noticed sooner, she may have been able to slow it down somehow. But she was out of time. She sighed, stepping forward slowly until she heard him shouting not to touch her. It made her stop, confused.

"Welcome, its nice to see you again." the darkness sang as she entered the zone. The violence shifted, and the pressure became unbearable. Notcurne wasn't able to speak or move, allowing the darkness to speak. "You have no idea whats happening... Good..." Nocturne managed to move his eyes to her. "This place holds me in a very special realm of being you know... This fool thought if he brought me here, you and your little friends would be SAFE." the pressure released slightly allowing Nocturne to move more.
"Nuriko! RUN!" he groaned. The darkness began to loom, the zone began to grow still and cold, the suns rays loosing ability to shine inside the zone. "This fool things you can leave. You both will no longer be leaving here in one piece. Now..." he said as Nocturne convulsed, "I wish you to see me one last time Nuriko..."
He manifested himself, looking like a crazy version of Kaiden. His head was down, but, sported his signature grin. "DOESN'T THIS FEEL WONDERFUL!?" he shouted stepping on Nocturnes neck, applying pressure. "Now, Nuriko..." he said stepping off and walking slowly toward her. He lifted his head and his eyes opened, the blues glowing like vibrant sapphires. His eyes were fixated on her, and they were wide.
"...HOW ABOUT WE GO FOR A WALK?!" he said as the entire field grew dark. After a few minutes, the zone dissipated, the air became clear and clean. Nocturne rose up, weak and shivering. He looked around, noticing the zone was gone. He looked for the corruption. and then eyed Nuriko. His eyes grew wide with fear.
"N-Nuriko...?"

Nuriko stood there for a second, watching everying happen with widening eyes. She was calm faced, though her mind was racing. His words shocked her. Then everything went black. She looked around the darkness wildly. Then it hit her. She could feel the corruption worming its way through her body as the darkness around her dissipated. Her breathing quickened as she dropped to her knees, her fists clenched. She looked up at Nocturne, tears in her eyes as she fought his control with every ounce of strength she could muster.
"I... i'm so...SORRY!" Her voice cracked, her eyes squeezing shut as she doubled over. She knew didn't have long.

Nocturne stumbled this way to her side, knowing she didn't have hardly any time left before he was there and in control. He grabbed her shoulder and sighed, "You are a stupid girl, before much longer, he will be all over your mind. Clawing at your very soul." He stood up and shut his eyes. He picked her up in his arms and walked with her. He only knew one place he could take her in which her initial powers would be dulled. "Im afraid you will need to be hear for... awhile." he said walking inside the tomb. It was barley lit, but, with sunlight. "Until further notice, I and Kaiden will be the only ones allowed here. If we see your condition worsen, you will have to be chained up like she was... Strange when you think about it, given how frail she was, she still gave me a run for my money once in awhile..." he said placing her near the light. He felt them nearby, the other two knew she was here, the surge of power giving her away like a fish out of water.
After a few moments, Aniko ran through the door her skirt went still as the air stopped flowing. She stared at Nuriko, seeing the pain and confusion. She began to tear up and she rushed to Nocturne and slapped him square in the jaw. Her face was red, tears flowing. She kneeled to Nuriko and took her hand.
"What... What happened"?

"Sure... because I can... READ... minds... HOW THE FUCK WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW!" She shuddered, her voice cracking worse. To make things even worse, her emotions were flaring up. She could hear the laughing in her head. She clenched her fists again, causing her hands to bleed. When she was placed on the ground, she barely managed to look up as Aniko entered the room. She growled.
"NOT... his... FAULT!... I'M... the idiot... I should know EVERYTHING!!" His voice was starting to show, making it sound as if both were talking at once. She closed her eyes, tears falling down her cheeks. When Aniko went to touch her hand, she pushed her away, knocking her into the wall opposite her.
"DON'T.... touch me..."

Aniko could hear him in her voice, it was happening faster than anticipated. She stood up and looked at Nocturne. "Why would you... Why would you let this happen to her!?" she said grabbing his shirt. He pushed her off, and readjusted his suit. He didn't speak, walking out of the tomb. She stood there looking at him then as he vanished, she fell to her knees. Was this planned? What was going on? She screamed at the top of her lungs. All of her hatred came out in one single word.
"PEEEEEEST!" she screamed. Her voice echoing through the tomb. As the echo ended, Pest walked out from behind a nearby pillar. "Im already here stupid..." he said walking past her and kneeling next to Nuriko. He grabbed her chin and looked into her eyes, he could see the corruption eating at her. "Why did this happen to you...?" he said as his mask clicked. Aniko walked up slowly and kneeled next to her. "Sis, what... what do we do? Tell us... Please..." she said starting to tear up again.
"P-Please Nuri... Tell us..."

Nuriko cringed in pain.
"I... came into the forest... to be alone. Didn't know... he was there... Seal broken... the other one decided hed much rather... have..." she screamed in pain, her eyes flashing as they started turning black. "I.. don't have... much time..." she dug in her hands into the ground, writing in pain on the ground, the darkness starting too seep out slowly.
"Kaiden...i'm so... sorry..." she moaned as she closed her eyes.

Nocturne walked in the night air slowly as he reached the Mansion. He eyed it before looking back at the Tomb, then, began walking back. He figured telling Kaiden wasn't the wisest idea, but, he needed the assistance of someone. Not even he knows what to do for once. He stopped, looked up at the night sky and grunted. "What a fine mess we have all gotten ourselves into yet again... Gah..." he said tightening his tie. He walked back toward the Tomb entrance and looked at Nuriko from afar. He sat there pondering if somehow, Kaiden might help. In this place, the corruption cant spread, her energy is too low to allow it.
"I have an idea... Kaiden may be able to help..." he said thinking. Aniko looked at him angrily, "Are you insane? You want Kaiden to see her like this?! Have you got no heart?!" she said stomping fiercly. "No, niether do I have a soul like you. Im heartless, I was created to be as such..." he said tapping his chest. "All I want is to die, and I want that... thing, to die with me. Is that hard to ask?" he walked closer, hands in his pockets. Pest stood up and adjust his robe and settled his mask.
"We can't allow anyone else to see her like this, or know. If word got out, someone could get hurt or worse. We all know how stupid Tori can get when she is in danger..." he said looking at Aniko. She looked at him and shook her head, "No, you're right, but, what can we do...?" she said as a noise shifted from the doorway. A man stood there half open eyes, white hair, red-eyes.
"It stinks in here... Doesn't it Nuriko?"

Nuriko heard placids voice and growled. The laughing in her head was starting to get to her. On top of the fact that with all the effort she was putting into holding nocturne back, she was lacking in the emotional control department.
"Stay... AWAY... FroM... ME..."
------------------------------------
Adrianne was sitting in the living room with Albert, Kaiden and the twins. Khirai had been in bed already. And this feeling she was getting in her head was making her feel very uncomfortable. She was carrying a glass vase with some flowers that khirai had picked her earlier. Then she realized something, and it made her drop the vase, which shattered on the ground. She turned to look between Diabound, Kaiden, and the twins, a look of sadness on her face.
"Nurikos been corrupted... HE'S taken her..."

Placid stood in the doorway and folded his arms. He sighed and looked toward the direction of the mountain, he knew that Adrianne knew. He grabbed Aniko and pulled her outside.
"You. Tell me what you know. Exactly." He said eying her. She looked down and sighed, "Nocturne was becoming Corrupted and she got too close I think..." She said folding her arms, her top was tight, her form filled her outfit and left little to the imagination. Placid shifted and looked at the mountain again.
"Ok, you and I need to stay focused." He said tossing his hair, "Go inside and keep a very close eye on her. I need to assure that idiot best friend of mine stays put. Ok?" She nodded and he walked back inside and stayed a small distance from Nuriko. Placid looked back toward the mansion and grunted.
"This sucks..."
---------------------------
Willow groaned, "So that's what that was?!" Sanya shot up and looked frightened. Kaiden looked at them in confusion, "What are you guys talking about?" As he said it Sanya and Willow both grabbed him, "Shut up and come on! Nuriko needs you!" Willow shouted. Kaiden's face changed and he shot up and looked at them, "Where?!" he shouted and they led him outside and they ran toward the tomb.
They reached the Tomb in a matter of minutes, and they walked in. Kaiden was the first one inside, he looked at her and as he stepped closer, Nocturne stopped him.
"No. You of all people shouldn't be here. She's not stable and you are-..."
"No. I can't let her be alone with him here!" he said pushing Nocturne aside. He ran to her side and he looked into her eyes, seeing the pain she was feeling.
"Nuri... I'm here now...

Nurikos eyes went wide as she saw him next to her. She pushed him away as fast as she could, tears streaming down her face.
"DON'T TOUCH ME! WHY!" And at that she burst into uncontrollable tears. The room pulsed for a split second, then the sobbing turned into uncontrollable laughter. Which with both Nocturnes and Nurikos voice sounded incredibly unnerving.
"Oh, no. By all means! All the poking I was doing to her didn't quite do the trick. Whose brilliant idea was it to bring him here? Definitely made things much easier for me..." he went silent after that, the only sound being made was Nurikos sobbing.

Kaiden shivered at the sound of the overlaying voices. He knew this feeling, he could tell it wasn't long before Nuriko was going to be his. If that happened, nobody could stop her, she was too strong for them in this state.
"Nuri, listen to me, you just have to hold on for a little longer! We will figure out a way to stop him!" He said looking into her eyes. "You promised me long ago you would always be there for me, I am going to be here for you now. As I should have always been." He stood up and walked to the twins, they looked at one another and then to Kaiden. He looked at them both and sighed.
"I have a small request. Find..." He shut his eyes, he knew this was gonna suck to say aloud. The whole room was eyeing him and Nocturne clenched his hands. Shaking his head in dissaproval.
"Find... Go find.... Tori..."

Nuriko took a deep breath, struggling to adjust herself even the smallest amount. She was suprised she had the ability to roll over slightly, but she managed to maneuver herself into a sitting position against one of the pillars. She looked toward Kaiden, her face sad.
"I'm so... sorry, Kaiden." She reached out her broken wrapped up hand to touch his, just barely. Then she gasped, the pain causing her to curl up slightly. She looked back up at Kaiden.
"Parshath... you have to... give... him back. He was not... meant... for you... Tori... needs... Parshath..."
