Aruna

Aruna's voice echoed through the portals.  "Zeke, i've called you a false demon before, told you about the burden of fused minds.  Ironic isn't it?  For one who wants to impose his will on the world suddenly is having his will crushed by another.  Last time you attacked me in a human alley way and took me captive, humiliated me, but we came to an understanding, you even helped me find my way.  Don't worry.  I won't be such a bad host."

Steel walls emerged from the ground around them, encasing the two in an air tight box.  Within the darkest void, there was no escape from the light.  Even then, you could hear Aruna's voice through the steel, but at this point it was a mere whisper.  "Would you accept that outcome as natural selection or would you fight that fate?"

"Lulu, can you tell me what he knows about the grace?  What is his game?  Why did he help me?  This information is as precious."

"I'm afraid it's not something anyone wants to hear. But fine." And with that, he let go.

"Follow me."

Continued in the slums.

ZeKEBAB

Zeke was wide-eyed as his arm swung at empty air, but before he could tell her form in the corner of his vision, the blade punched straight into his gut and slammed him into the wall. A pained gasp ripped from his throat, and the pain shot through his whole being. This wound was different - it felt real. Just like that vampire's weapon... but without the protection of a battle within a match. This was a true fight to the death.

Sweating and squirming in pain, he tried to pull the sword out of his gut and cast a spell - only for his magic to flicker away. At that same moment, walls of iron smashed through the floor and caged the two. And that damnable demon's whisper...

"Aw, thanks for the hospitality. It's so wonderful getting to play with the two of you that I might puke." He sweated and experienced the struggle firsthand. But even with the cards stacked against him, even with his this weapon lodged into his core and killing him inside, even with the angel shoving her way into the recesses of his mind-

He smiled heroically and denied them the satisfaction. He wouldn't surrender.


Earlier today

I guess that's it huh. Well, whatever, I had a great time. Nothing in this place gets me more satisfied than the feeling of fists colliding. And so, ZEKE just walked among the city's sidewalks, taking a bit to breathe in the city. A shame the vampire king just ditched him so coldly, but eh. He'd live through it. Maybe I should let Aruna know about the brat... and that other thing. It'd be bad if the cute little demon gets blindsided already. I bet she's just fooling around unaware of anything. I wish I could be that blissfully ignorant.

As he enjoyed a quiet stroll, he noticed something sticking out.


HAYABUSA'S VENGEANCE - A tale of PASSION, ROMANCE and BLOOD THRILLING ACTION!!

"Heh. What a waste of time." Was this what humans referred to as a cinema? Oh, right, he heard that a lot of romantic intrigues pop up in those places. Man, now he really regretted not dragging Val there. Maybe he should get Serana and Joseph some tickets. It might actually be fun.

5 Minutes Later...

"Have a taste of my folded steel, brother!"  *clash* *clang* "No! It is you who shall die! Witness my technique!" *slash* "Aieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!"

Staring wide eyes at the multicolored screen that blared all these cacophonies, Zeke blushed through the whole thing. This emotion, this intrigue... he was absolutely hooked! Was this another expression of individuality - just like fashion? Humans were truly fascinating.

Oh my god, can I do that?

Maybe he should look for one of those so-called ninjas. They looked like worthy adversaries. Or maybe...


Gritting his teeth and his every muscle, he fought to tear the sword out of him.

Bern:
Lulu

With a flick of her hand, the shining sword slammed sideways and threatened to pull Zeke into a corner.

"No, not that. Earlier.." She pretty much ignored the movie visiting experience it wasn't relevant to what she was searching but it revealed some clues. That's why she pushed further in and looked for his last memories together with this so called Vampire King.

" His mind is truly disgusting, I feel dirty just looking at his recent memories..... I don't want to look deeper..... Please." Her thoughts came to Aruna yet she sounded meek, all her usual bravado was gone as she pleaded with Aruna to not have to expose herself a second longer than needed.

Aruna

Aruna's eyes widened.  I understand.  I apologize. I suppose we must do this the old fashioned way.

Sinking into his portal, he emerged from the ceiling, landing on the top of the box without making a single sound.  Still holding his dark blade in hand, it began to glow, its overwhelming glimmering light obscured by the cold steel trapping both inside.  For a moment he looked at his blade.  So you can't do everything huh?  Or perhaps.... Ezekial has it, the power of a human...

Then lets cut off his limbs....

The glowing blade of darkness, now coated in light, grew to the size of three men.  Aiming for Zeke's arm, he thrust the blade into the box, severing the limb.  "So you refuse to accept your fate so long as it happens to you huh?" the demon said, its voice still muffling into a whisper from the steel.  "That sort of spirit will make it hard for me to interrogate you, but that just means I will have a challenge to match the conquest of the so called heroes of old."
