Nero moved out of the way of the kick, leaping over a box. Before he disappeared behind it, a shot was sent at Lucky from his heavy pistol.

The shot was stray, and due to the circumstances that Lucky had predicted before, it missed. Landing behind the boxes, Nero looked at his gun with a hint of confusion. "How did I miss that?"

The voice continued speaking to her. "Hel... hel... p... hel... p."

"Shit that was close," Lucky sighed in relief befor he began running once more, panting this time as he threw another coin. "Can I dodge his next shot?" he asked as he threw the coin, getting a heads. "Fuck, will I survive!?" he growled, throwing it once more, this time getting a tails that did nothing in helping Lucky feel better about his luck.

"I'm sure she'll be fine," Kane reassured Pandora as he turned towards a still glaring Adam. "Now, shall we finish these guys?"


Minam had managed to run into the ship as the explosions rang out and made his way towards the room the cargo was in. "Kathy are you okay!?" he called out, noticing the large cloud of smoke coming out of the room.

"That means you are interested dear. Interested in learning more about Riftborn from a good source, because well who better than the direct source. And I'm interested in dealing with problems while avoiding causing myself more," she replied back calmly.

Robin frowned, confused - what did it mean help? Robin tried to communicate back by thoughts, as crazy as it was even though she was pretty crazy herself.

..What do you mean help? And why are you making me look insane, voice?

Metzli furrowed her brow, boring her stare into the dark tome's ancient pages of text. "It's bound from animal hides and human skin, to be exact.." She murmured, seeing the words blur together in a cryptic mess. The dizziness was entering her mind, forcing her to sit down. Sighing, she took her eyes off of the Book of Shadows for a while.

"Just what is it doing here, though?" She rubbed her eyes, letting a yawn escape. She didn't want to admit it, but she was growing tired. The emotional and physical strain was beginning to take a toll on her.

Seeing Metz's exhaustion, Colt took over reading the book to see if there were any clues. The multiple tongues all bled together and gave him a headache as well, but he was able to keep going. "This is real interesting stuff. Real dark, messed up stuff... but interesting nonetheless." He remarked dryly. "I'm gonna keep looking to see if I can find anything about your cure, if it exists we'll find it."

"Doubtful it'd be in there. The Book of Shadows is a record of all black magic and witchcraft since the Middle Ages, so I doubt there would be a cure in there. A book about alchemy probably wouldn't fit any better..." She pondered aloud.

Colt sighed. "Perhaps you're right." He mused. "I'm a killer, not a healer anyways... but I'll keep looking through this just in case any of it is usable." He said as he went over to Aya. "And how goes your work?" He asked her quietly.

She shrugged, silently agreeing with him as she stood up once more to examine the messy piles. Though she had yet to find anything further on the cure, she did see a stack of blueprints and yellowed sketches. It displayed a set of weapons, with rushed Japanese characters in the margins of the drawings. One showed a set of brass knuckles with large, claw-like extensions and three-foot wristblades on the outer edges. Some other pages depicted types of armor, designs for more weapons. She examined the clawed gauntlet drawing and read aloud at the top in messy kanji;

"Gia's Primal Brawlers.. It looks plausible to make. Might be a bit difficult, but still doable." She thought out loud, squinting to study it more closely. The designs were rather intricate.

Adam let out a loud roar as he and King fused once more, his body becoming completely surrounded with shadow as he glared at Kane, who simply fused with his own guardian, spreading his light wings out. "Pretty nice trick you've got," he grinned before speeding towards Adam, only for the shadow user to do the same. The two collided with each other, sending out a blast of light and shadow as they flew back, only for them to quickly crash once more.

Minam had run into the cargo room, going through the cloud of smoke and spotting a panting and wounded Kathy as she was regaining her wind once more. "You're alive," Minam said in relief as he ran over to the girl. "What the hell happened here!?"

"Ugh, the damn captain of the ship just had to meddle, making my job harder," Kathy groaned in annoyance, wincing slightly and she held onto her wound.

"That looks bad," Minam pointed out, concern on his face as he realized that Kathy had managed to absorb half of the cargo. "Will you be able to hold out? constant use of your power to full capacity is bad."

"At thsi point it's best if we just try to get as much as we can," Kathy panted out, staring at the cargo. "If it means we'll get to leave the way we want then I don't care! now cover my back in case that old fart gets back up."

Drew bit his lip, he hadn't seen this girl since he had to drag her out the maws of several monsters. Even then, she was rather abrasive after receiving help.

Some how, taking a deep breath and mustering as much courage as he could, he knocked on the door to the girl's hospital room.

"Hello" He greeted through the door, "it's Drew Alexandrite, i wanted to see how you're doing. Mind if i come in?"

The girl blinked when she saw Drew. "Ah... hi..." She turned her face away from him, it having lost its cover. Underneath, parts of the skin on her face looked to be scarred and boiled. It was still a source of shame for her.

"How are you?" She asked. She seemed a lot calmer now.

--

"Ah... I'm breaking through, I think. I just got some thoughts down on paper," Aya said, passing the paper over to him. "Maybe, just maybe, we can find out this sigil and reverse-engineer it. If we can, we'll be able to do what we need to."

--

"I'm only interested in my own goals, dear," Ripred stated. "For the price you're giving me, I might as well be giving you my help for free."

He stepped back once more, turning the woman gently. "And what exactly is it that you want from me, Ms. Fuhrer?"

"I'm okay" Drew smiled, "You don't have to turn away if you don't want to, i actually think your quite pretty. Plus it's harder to talk to you if your looking at the wall like that."

Drew pulled a chair next her bed and sat down.

"Do you mind if i ask your name? Or where you're from?"

The girl opened her mouth a bit, before closing it. She looked at Drew, but then opted to look at her covered legs. "... Dusk," she said lowly. She didn't give her place of origin, but she hoped her name would be enough.

She glanced over at Aya, silently wondering what the older girl had found. She had to wait several minutes to clear her dizziness before she could get up and walk over to the Riftwalker.

"Check out these sketches. Not sure what they're doing here, but it's probably possible to build." She showed the blueprints to Aya, looking semi-excited.

Drew smiled. "It's nice to meet you, Dusk." He greeted "I was a little worried about you, so i wanted to see how you were doing. I'm one of those people where i couldn't stop worrying even if my life depended on it." He joked "You comfortable? Do you need anything? I can run and get you some snacks or something if you want?"

"No one named Fuhrer is good news" Curt thought to himself, being rather used to the oddly appropriate names superheroes have.
He decided he'll keep an eye on her. Somewhat literally.

"Something that'll help you as well actually. Something that will create a rift that'll work against Null. I have a pain who left alone could lead to enemies neither of us want. So I want to get rid of him. But if I do it then it won't work since I need to frame Null for this to work to the full extent. I'll even allow a bit collateral that will have no effect on me," she told him. "And this will have quite the interesting effect on your brother," she whispered into his ear.

"Huh? Oh, that looks nice," Aya looked at them before turning back to her books. "Real nice. Good weapons for you."

--

Dusk blinked at Drew's willingness to help her. It was strange, really. She didn't know how to reciprocate. "Ah... I'm fine. I feel fine. Thank you."

"Hm... Says it's made from the bones of a lycan. That might be a bit tough.." She murmured, working quickly to decipher the hasty Japanese.

"Say, Aya.. You wouldn't happen to know where I could find some lycan bones, would you?"
