Hinata turned as soon as she heard Syzen, eyes narrowing. She didn't bother trying to reply; instead, she tried to message Cassius.
Are you okay? She asked.

Not really… Jonathan’s basically dragging me to the equivalent of Hell right now… Cassius replied much faster than he should’ve.

Syzen charged Hinata with the two fish accompanying his side, pushing away Aisen and Fleura. Clenching his fist, he was going to get a direct hit on Hinata.

(Eh, no probs)

The angelic being sighed.
“Whatever you say pacifist” they then spread their wings and took off into the skies.

Oh my God! Hinata thought, eyes widening at what Cassius said. Quickly, she turned to Syzen, very pissed and very much wanting to end this battle. Now. She launched to meet him halfway, entire body glowing slightly.

“The taste of desperation… I enjoy this…” the corruptor inside Syzen left his body, leaving Hinata to hit the empty shell as the being disappeared into the dense waves.
The water levels then lowered, returning back into the ground they came from. Syzen’s body lying on the ground without any Zodiac Uniform on, only his innermost suit remained.

Hinata stood there for a moment, breathing heavily as steam rose off of her. Then, she turned, ignoring Syzen.
"I need to get to Cassius," She said.

“The Grand Plateau should be where he is” Aisen stated, calling the several pieces of glass and opened a portal.
“Hold on” he gestured a spell with his blade which turned the portal into an external one.
“This will take you straight there, Fleura—“ he turned to the Warrior.
“Yes yes, I stay here and heal all of these people while you two go do your little fighting, I understand” Fleura smiled softly as he answered.
Aisen nodded and headed through the portal.

Kye watched the figure disappeared for a moment.
Did he just call you a pacifist?
Yes he did.
Are you going to let that fly?
Oh aren't you funny. Seeing as how he already left I can't really do anything about it. Now if he were still here, I'd probably punch him in his teeth. And then likely get all mixed up in a fight.
Yeah, but that wouldn't be surprising now would it.
I'm gonna tune you out now and go wandering around.
Kye began headed off into labyrinth.

"Thank you," Hinata said, turning to Fleura for a moment before stepping through the portal.

Through the portal, Hinata was to find the so-called Grand Plateau on fire. It wasn’t flower petals that flew with the winds, it was ashes.
A demonic figure can be seen holding onto a humanoid figure while holding a fiery sword in its other hand. Though demonic, the figure showed signs of machinery throughout its exterior.

(Here, I'll help.)
Kye moved through the halls keeping to the shadows. He could hear so many things going on. Screams echoing the halls, what sounded like a fight going on somewhere. Because he spent so much time in caves away from people, his hearing with almost amplified. So hearing things from far away wasn't hard for him to do. "This sounds like a nice place. I wonder…" he slipped farther into the shadows. In a normal cave he could vanish with no problem, this would be more difficult.

Hinata quietly drew her sword, scowling at the sight.

It wasn’t surprising for Kye to come across a local of the place. A pale figure floated through the halls, heading in the opposite direction of where Kye was going.

The demonic figure threw the humanoid body in his hand to where Hinata and Aisen were. The figure was not Cassius; it was… Caleb, The Gunner.
The gunner slowly stood up, coughing out both blood and metallic powder.
The demonic figure jumped up and landed in front of the group.

"Were's Cassius?" She growled, the question not really directed at anyone.

Kye watched the figure floating past for a moment before having to look again.
Was that a…
Spirit? Yes, if you were going to say ghost you would be wrong. I have explained this to you before. Ghosts are only on the planets. This is place like hell, which makes them spirits.
Yeah, I know I know. But, it just floated past. Should I talk to it or something?
I don't know. That's up to you.

“He’s in the cave system somewhere—“ the gunner pointed to an opening in the distance “—I couldn’t get inside to save him ‘cause this maniac of a being was beating me like I was mashed potatoes…” the gunner replied, wiping blood from his mouth.

The spirit moved passed Kye before turning back and landing in front of him silently and gracefully.
“Looking for someone?”

Kye about fell backwards when the spirit landed in front of him. "Good god, please don't do that!" he exclaimed. "Hi, Uh, no I'm not looking for anyone in particular. Just kind of wandering. I hear there's been a bit of a problem going on here, which is probably the reason I was dropped here. The universe thinks I'm one of the best to fix problems apparently. Can I help you in anyway?"

“Uh… not me as an individual but I guess you can help with the place—“ the spirit tapped his chin to think.
“There’ve been rumors going around that some of the officials here, also known as the Knights, are planning on taking the Labyrinth for themselves. I’m not sure how true the statement is but it’s worth checking out” he explained.
“The best place to start might be the Royal Building, the one just next door”

Kye sighed. "What is with people and the need o be in control of something or someone? Yeah, I'll go do that. Since I have nothing better to do with my life. Hopefully this doesn't take to long and my girlfriend doesn't kill me for having disappeared again."
She's on a different planet from you.
And?
You shouldn't have to worry about it. Don't you remember? She had some problem of her own to deal with.
I guess that is true.

Seeing the animals struggle Loki decided to just cut their heads off

“Greed can do a lot to the Trinity, I’ll tell you that. This wasn’t the first this had happened” the spirit shrugged as he explained the following.
“Oh yeah and regarding the Knights, I am one… well, I was” the spirit added, straightening his posture as he turned to his fully natural form instead of a pale faint spirit.
The figure had a white suit on, brown hair, blue eyes, a fully white cape and gloves, a white top hat with a blue ribbon, a silver monocle with small jewelries of the four card symbols (spades, hearts, diamonds, clubs) tied along the string, and a red bowtie.
“The name’s Selik Barron, nice to meet you”

“He’s in the cave system somewhere—“ the gunner pointed to an opening in the distance “—I couldn’t get inside to save him ‘cause this maniac of a being was beating me like I was mashed potatoes…” the gunner replied, wiping blood from his mouth.

"That's- one way to put it," Hinata under her breath. She turned to demonic figure, swords ready.

(Yeah…Caleb will be the subtly hilarious one)

Aisen stepped up.
“You two go to the opening… I’ll take care of my future successor myself…” Aisen stated as his blue eyes flashed brightly and blinded the figure.
“Go!!”

(Here, I’ll give you something to do)

Fleura was examining Sebastian’s body.
“Geez, you poor thing” he was reprogramming Sebastian and was fixing his main board. He was sitting, sure, but it was more effective that way when it comes to fixing this piece of machinery with a human mind.

Loki noticed Sebastian and another person she didn't know with him. She calmly walked over, still a little soaked for the water, and asked him in a slightly shaky voice "Do you need any help?"
