Blood and guts, or candy for ghouls? [Ask for Invite]

[Hamura]

Hearing talk about Shiki being capable of making a useful mask out of the skulls, Hamura watched and listened as Jormungandr said that he would be taking the one on his right. Figuring that that would leave the one on his left, he temporarily placed his tanto back into the scabbard before turning on his feet and moving towards the "green hag" at breakneck speeds. Slipping his blade from the scabbard, the first cut served to sever the head from the top portion of the neck, seeing as this was the only part of this creature that seemed to serve any purpose. The second cut took off the other arm, while the third and fourth severed the knee joints, the fifth and sixth sliced through the torso, while subsequent cuts carved the bigger portions into smaller and smaller bits.

By the time he reappeared by Jormungandr's side, the hag's body collapsed into a mass of blood and gore, not recognizable in the slightest as it looked like a heap of rancid meat at best. Holding the head by the hair, he figured that he should be taking the head back to see if the same thing went for him. If someone could make a mask like that for him too that would actually help him with his business as a shinobi, he would quickly get over the fact that he was wearing the skull of a gross, deceased hag creature. As he made his way back over to the real Hamura and Loki, he shot a glance over at Jormungandr and jokingly addressed him as he spoke.

"See? you're not the only one capable of pulling over tricks on such dim-witted creatures."

[Madame Loki]

"Yeah, but... I it did first." Jormungandr said as he smiled at Hamura. Loki looked up over at he boy and motioned for the head that he had to be giving to her. Jormungandr began to walk over towards Loki, and handed her to head of the Hag. After Loki was given the head, in several smooth motions she stripped the skin off of the Hags face and head. She then held the skull there in her hand, but before she did anything else, she looked into the eyes of the dead creature, and then ooze began to fall out of the skull. Loki had use heat to melt the soft tissue of the creature, including it's brain.

After everything had oozed away, water manifested and washed the skull clean. As she wiped the skull steam come off the surface of the skull head, as it not only cleaned, but also cooled down the surface of the skull. She looked over the skull, while saying, "You boys might want to look for the Mecromancer. There's no doubt there is a secrete compartment somewhere around here. I'd looked dry patches of land, and sense out the flow of magic to guide you there." Loki guided them, as it seemed that she was content with letting the young ones handle this. She wasn't sure if either of them could sense out chakra at all, but that was going to be their problem.

[Hamura]

When the boy handed the head over to Loki, it seemed that she was busy with the boy and didn't really have a lot of time for him on the matter. It figured though, seeing as he wasn't really part of the family, so it didn't really matter. Letting go of the head, he violently kicked it into the marshes where it quickly sank into the murky waters and filth. Though not dirty, he still felt the need to scrub his hands over his trousers to make sure the taint of the hag was off of him entirely. Putting his tanto back into the scabbard before putting his hands into his pockets, he heard it rather clearly when Loki talked about there being an entrance nearby somewhere.

In response, he headed over to the portion that had previously been closed off by the barrier, figuring that this was the most likely place for such a hidden entrance to be. Sitting down, he closed his eyes and focused his senses on his surroundings while focusing his chakra on chakra signatures around him. Figuring that he would be able to pick it up if he tried, he made the most out of his sensory abilities in hopes of finding what they needed in order to move forward. Though it might take him a few seconds before his sensory abilities peaked, he considered it to be a small sacrifice in the greater scheme of things.

[Madame Loki]

"That'll be easy... as long as the Necromancer has a pulse." Jormungandr said to his mother who looked at her son curiously. She wasn't aware that he had trained any tracking methods, especially not any that would help in this situation. "Really now?" Loki asked curiously. "Well you said it yourself didn't you? There are no living creatures in this area. That of course excludes the Necromancer. That being the case, with no animals or other warm bodies other than ours... tracking their heat signature will be easy." Loki smiled as she listened to Jormungandr's thought process.

the boy turned towards the are where Hamura was walking in, and his face began to change. His eyes turned serpent-like, and his forked tongue, slithered out, and he took in the heat signature. Anyone in 60 meter range in front of him. He could see the heated marked foot steps in the marsh and and could sense the heat of someone below them. He looked down and pointed. "She's there...." His finger then moved along the marsh as he tracked the heat, and then pointed at a patch of dirt some 20 meters away from where he was. However she got down there, is over there." He said to Hamura not really sure what kind of door was going to be there.

[Hamura]

Finding a faint glimmer of chakra that was receding into a certain direction, he figured that it was all that was left of the barrier that had first been here. This meant that whomever had put up the barrier was the owner of the chakra signature, and who that owner was was something they were all already quite aware of. However, as he could point out the direction, that would only take them closer to the general area of the entrance, which was when Jormungandr explained that he had more or less found the Necromancer. When he looked around to see how the boy could know about such things, he saw the serpentine features in his eyes and mouth, showing that there was in fact something off about him.

First it had been something to do with icy blades not even breaking his skin, and now with the eyes and tongue. Whether this was also something he had received as a genetic gift from either Loki or Shiki was something he doubted, mostly because he had seen Shiki a couple of times now, and had not seen a single reptilian trait about him. As for Loki, he knew that she was a witch, though he figured that being a witch was not at all like how it was described in childrens' stories. No, there was something else going on here, though Hamura could not exactly figure out what it was. Deciding to drop it for the time being, he wandered over to where the boy had pointed them out to go, which was also where the chakra signature had gone.

Kicking into the dirt a bunch of times, revealing a rather old well. Whether it belonged to an old settlement that had been here many years ago or if it had been placed here as a means to distract people, the fact that there was no water inside of it and an old wooden staircase heading down into a torch lit space gave away the fact that this was no well at all. This had to be it.

[Madame Loki]

Loki continued to look over the skull and then looked over at Shiki, "Actually...masking a mask from this... may require a more delicate touch. I'll take care of it myself, this time." Loki examined the skull with a smile on her face as she was already getting some ideas where following through her mind. She might need to get some assistance dealing with clothing. If she found some good help, she might be able to extend that into a line of clothing for the Hunters, who visited the Tipsy Turtle. As Loki looked over the Skull, Humura and Jormungandr found the way to the Necromancer.

As Hamura looked over at Jormungandr, he stuck his forked tongue out at him playfully, as he feature returned back to being humanoid. Jormungandr trotted over towards the opening, and Loki followed behind him as they began to enter into the space. It was rather dark in here, even with the torches, but that made little different to Loki, and Jormungandr. As they headed down, she looked ahead, and then said, "I see you there... Oath Beaker. I'd asked you come quietly, so that I can grant you a quick death." Loki called out to the women who was sitting in a ritual circle. She didn't seemed to concerned at this point, was the ritual already complete?

"You're too late young one. The union has already been consummated." Loki titled her head to the side, and then her eyes widened a bit, "Consummated?! You... no... you...married and banged a demon?!!" Loki's frighten looked quickly turned to shock and she started to laugh. She didn't seem concerned at all. The Necromancer, frowned at her clearly upset, "I would not give my self to something as simple as a Demon!!! I am not a weak willed witch... I have my pride."

"You aren't a witch at all... Oathbreaker..." Loki said plainly. This clearly upset the Necromancer as she as about to retort, before clawed hand came out of the shadows, and grabbed her shoulder, "Calm down my love. Do not let her wile you up." Demonic figure stepped out of the shadows and he towered at about 6'8 ft. This was no demon, "Well aren't you a handsome... Devil. Seems she has better taste than I gave her credit." Loki said with a smile, as she mostly meant that the Necromancer's choice of obtaining power was, while vile... far more sound than most.

The Necromancer, and her Devil Husband began to speak to each-other in Truespeak. Loki smirked and then spoke in Truespeak herself, "I can understand you... you know." Jormungandr smirked as he looked at the two of them and then said, in Truespeak himself, "Me too... kind of." The two of them than looked over at the witch in her son. As she said in Common, "My offer still stands. Surrender, and I'll grant you a quick death. Hell I'll do you one better. Take your bitch of a Oathbreaking wife, back to hell with you. I'll seal you both up, and you can spend eternity together. I'll be sending you both back to hell anyway, this way it won't hurt as much."

[Hamura]

When Loki and Jormungandr entered the place first, Hamura waited a while before going in as he really did not care much for tight spaces. Having no idea what they might be getting into down there, he sent down his clone in order to do some recon for him. Feeling like it might be best to stay out of things for the time being and letting his clone handle it, he was ready to hop on in at any time if he deemed it necessary, which he did not really do at this point. Given the way Loki described things to be, she was not in the least bit bothered about all of this because there was really nothing alive around them that might be hurt by it.

As that was something that more or less shaped how he saw things, mostly because he had no idea as to what demons or necromancers really were, or to what degree he needed to actually worry himself. So as Hamura remained outside, the clone hopped down and seemingly leaped right into the middle of a conversation. Only understanding a portion of it, one of the biggest things he managed to pick up from it all was that the woman sitting in the circle was married to something that stepped out of the shadows not much later. Having never seen a demon before, he was having some trouble believing that this was in fact one of them as it seemed more like an angel.

That said, he only knew about these things from what he had learned from books regarding their languages, which really only told him so much about them. Clearly they would need further investigating within his own time, though he had yet to figure out where he might be capable of doing such a thing. For now, he'd be standing by as Loki took the lead.

[Madame Loki]

"I will not resign myself back to hell. At the world of some witch... how about we make a deal?" Loki's eyes narrowed as she looked at creature before her. "This is why I prefer dealing with Demons, rather than Devils." Loki waved her hand out in front of her disinterested in anything he had to say. "Devils talk too much..." Loki said as she looked at the creature, he was visibly upset, as was the pride of such creatures. "You think yourselves above demons, but you're all the same sweetheart. The only difference is... demons start in hell, you devils turned your back on your duties and was cast to hell. So really... you're nothing more, than angelic warlocks. Twisted ugly things, un able to keep promises."

Loki words bite into the Devil, it was easy to see where Jormungandr, modeled his demeanor towards his opponents. Evil intent and energy fell off the body of the Devil, as it stared at Loki. She simply smiled at it. "You are lucky this is such a special day. Or I would have reduced you to ash! Do not be foolish-less. I offer you your life, and power in return all I ask is -" Loki put up her hand to stop the Devil from talking, "Enough... You have nothing I desire. A Lefaye does not need the power of Demons and Devils to dance with the Gods." Loki smirked at the two of them there, and the Necromancer, took a step back, as fear was visibly on her face.

The Devil on the other hand had a face of pure rage stretch across his face. "Well that is good... at least you know your history. I am the Grand daughter, of Morgana LeFaye." The necromancer, visibly trembled when she heard the name. The Devil, clenched his fist. "Wretched, girl... I smelt the blood of Devils running through your veins, but you are Lefaye... explain." Loki Shrugged, "Echidna..." Is all Loki said and the devil snarled in rage, "Abomination!!!" The Devil shouted as he charged Loki. She just stared at him as her Sharigan flared up with power.

The Devil had flown forwards with a might flap of his wings, but was then stopped in his tracks. He let out a whelp of power, and dropped to his knees. In his mind he believed himself to be stapled to the ground by giant stake that pierced through his body. She then began to walk towards him. As she approached, the Devil saw her Y'la spirits, floating around her, and they began to latch onto his body. "Truly... an abomination." He said as he knelt there able to move. "I've been called worst... Now I gave you a chance. don't say I didn't warn you."

"It doesn't matter... We'll be back... kill us all you want. I rule in hell, death means nothing to us!" The Devil said, and Loki began to giggle as he spoke. "There are worst things than death, my handsome Devil. I'll send your lovely wife there to hell without you, and leave you here, trapped in an eternal stone prison. My garden could use some decor. I wonder... without you there... how will they treat her in hell?" Loki smirked at the Devil, as he clearly seemed to care for the Warlock a great deal. Even these creatures loved something.

"I'll do anything, just don't please. just tell me what you want from me." The Necromancer said as she got down on her knees next to her "husband". Loki looked at them and then turned to Hamura and Jormungandr. "Alright... I'll make you a deal. Tell us everything you had planned... everything. and I'll let Hamura and Jormungandr here cast judgement on you." Loki looked at the boys again, "You boys ok with that? You did most of the heavy lifting up to this point."

[Hamura]

Thinking about all of the things that were being said, Hamura did not really like the direction in which things were going for a bunch of reasons. He figured that it was likely unwise to trigger the creature or the necromancer, as cornered animals were the most dangerous things out there. When cornered, even a rat would dare attack a lion if it believed itself to be out of other options, and the lion might even learn to fear the rat in that instance. Due to his own lack of magic and magical understanding, he wondered if a shinobi like him could really contribute anything at all if it came around to a real fight between them. Even if the devil was immobilized now, that did not mean that it would remain there for much longer, or that the Necromancer would continue cowering like a rat that had not yet decided to lash out.

In a way, part of him shunned the idea of having to cast judgement on the two of them, but on the other hand, he figured that such things were also part of his life as a ninja. After all, he had been told to hurt or kill people for the sake of completing a mission before, and while he did not like doing it, he did it anyway because that was what was needed of him. That said, all of the people he had killed so far were people who deserved it by either trying to kill him, trying to or actually hurting and killing innocent people or killing animals and destroying their homes and offspring for no reason. And that was perhaps the weird part about all of this. He did not know these two, nor did he have any idea of what they could truly do, just that they had been doing terrible things that could very well have caused people to get hurt.

As for the undead she had called back into life, it seemed more like reanimating the bones than actually calling a spirit back to the body. After all, had that been the case, the horde of zombies would most likely have put up much more of a fight due to primarily being ninja of the old days that were left to wither and rot after dying here. While raising them back to life was despicable, if it was for the sake of protecting an unborn child, he felt like it was somehow not as bad as he originally believed. But that said, there were still too many variables that he did not know. These were things he needed to know before he made a choice, before he would make part of the decision that would get someone killed or leave them alive.

"Fine, I'll agree to that, but I'll need to know everything."

"Speak, and be quick about it." Jormungandr said to the two of them as they knelt there. The Warlock looked at the two boys and then looked over at Loki. The devil kept his eyes fixed on Loki, and began to speak, "I am one of many devils and demons... driven back to the depths of hell by your Grandmother, and her allies, millennium upon millennium ago. I Sat there and watch for countless years, as humans slowly destroy what was rightfully ours. This dominion did not belong to you!!"

"At the rate you were going you would have destroyed this world and many others. It was a desolate waste land. You upset the balance that was suppose to be." Loki said, as she looked at the devil that knelt before. "It was paradise to us, and your grandmother stole it!! Not only that she stole it and gave it away to humans!" Loki rolled her eyes, "Whatever... this conversation is going no where. Just speak of your intentions." The Warlock looked at Loki and then the boys, "We going to take it back. Take it all back. You say the Demons and Devils failed at their chance to rule this plane, but the humans are no better, and are weaker. It is the right of the strong to rule! This realms belongs to our kind!"

Jormungandr tilted his head to the side, "So you intended to summon this guy... make an army of undead, and then what? Take over the world? It can't be that simple." The Warlock smirked, "Smart boy, of course... even with the two of us, and our allies, it would not be enough to take on thee world. But we didn't need to. All we need to do, is reverse what the first Coven and their army did." Loki folded her arms, "You wanted to reverse the seals? Bring the armies of hell to earth?" Loki sighed, it was such a stupid thing, "You underestimate Humans. Even if I we didn't arrive here, that would have never worked." Jormungandr said, as he folded his arms.

"Perhaps... but this was our home first, and you stole it from us. Can't blame us for trying." spoke the devil, with a solemn voice. Devil's were as chaotic as demons, they were evil but seldom were they pure evil. "Hmmm, but what did you plan on doing with the humans of this world if you were successful?" Jormungandr asked curiously. He seemed reasonable so maybe, "I intended on putting them back in their place. Serving there superiors." Loki sighed as she expected as much. Devils weren't pure evil but they certainly thought themselve superior, to most others especially humans

"All the humans I killed up to this point I needed, for the ritual to summon my beloved. I turned myself away from the Mother Goddess, because..."

"Because you love that devil there. Yeah... yeah. You communed with him for i assume several decades, and he tempted you into turning your back on your oath. In the process he taught you how to summon him. yadda yadda... I've heard enough." Jormungandr said as he waved his hand in the air dismissively. Jormungandr looked over at Hamura and then said, "They're kinda twisted. Honestly I think going splitting them up for via my mom's previous method would be best. Send the Warlock to hell, and keep that devil trapped in stone here. Think it's fitting. They stripped loved ones apart, think it's fair that they experience the same."

The Warlock had a terrified look on her face as she looked at Jormungandr. The boy was cold... much colder than she had expected him to be. She looked over at Hamura with pleading eyes hoping that he'd offer a softer punishment.

[Hamura]

Hearing all of the stories the devil and the necromancer had in store for them, he listened as both Loki and Jormungandr seemed dismissive to their pleas, or rather to the pleas of the necromancer. The devil seemingly only cared for one thing, and that was for all of the humans to bend the knee to the devils as they took back the world that had been taken away from them. Though one thing seemed odd, and that was that in the stories and lore, the demons and the devils were by no means friends or allies, as the devils resented the demons almost as much as they did the angels that made them into what they were now. Regardless of that, he could not really gather up a whole lot of sympathy for the devil that seemed to care little to nothing about humans, seeing them as insignificant creatures that should be serving them as overlords.

As for the necromancer, if she was anything like Loki was, he figured that there was more humanity to her than the devil. Listening to her as she spoke about how she had only killed enough so that she could summon the creature that had impregnated her, there was only so much sympathy to be had there as well. Though he had no understanding of the concept of love or the kind of emotions parents felt towards their children, he figured that there were plenty of others in the shinobi world that had killed people for their own gain, yet somehow managed to cover it up as doing it "for the sake of their village and country". So as he thought about what to do next, he took in Loki's thoughts and Jormungandr's thoughts while thinking out loud.

"Some say strength comes with being callous and uncaring, that bitterness is what keeps people from making mistakes they'd make if they'd let emotions get in the way. So by that logic, we should seal one in stone and send the other to hell, let them fend for themselves while spending the rest of eternity apart."

While that would have been a good punishment, he felt like that did not cover all of the bases. There was one thing which Loki and Jormungandr were both overlooking, and that was the fact that there was still a child in the equation, albeit an unborn one. As someone who had grown up without parents, at least for as far as he could remember, he had only the strange and faint glimmer of love for those that had spawned him. But if he were given the chance to choose between remembering what his parents were like and how it was to grow up with them, or continue living life as he did now and having no idea as to who they were or why they gave him away, there was really no need to actually say out loud which path he'd end up choosing.

"But that is not what I believe, not entirely. I feel like we should send the both of them to the underworld together, as well as their growing child. While I feel no sympathy for either of them, there is a child growing that has yet to do good or bad things, and that can't be punished for the sins of the mother or father."

Turning back to Loki and Jormungandr, he wanted to see the expression on their faces as he talked about the parental angle. Though he knew enough to say that Loki and Jormungandr were not likely to be related by blood, he figured that they did truly consider one another parent and child. And while he himself could not relate to this, he figured that bringing up the subject might speak to them too. Whether it would be enough to break the rather callous outlook they had on things was something he was not sure of, though he wanted to make sure that his intentions here were not underestimated or wrongly interpreted. He wanted the two of them to suffer for what they had done and would by no means offer them any leniency. What he wanted however, was a fitting punishment that at least gave the child a chance at a future and making something out of itself, just like Hamura himself had done.

"Send them both to hell. She'll likely become a target for demons, as well as other devils, meaning mister devil here will likely not have the time to continue scheming if he wants his wife to stay with him and his unborn child to make it into existence. Living out their days in hell with demons hunting after your traitor and the devil that impregnated her seems like a worse enough punishment to me, but at least they'll be together. After that, I'd rather we just get out of here…"

[Madame Loki]

Jormungandr raised an eyebrow, as he listened to Hamura, "Ah... you do know that just because they consummated their union, it doesn't mean she's pregnant right? I mean she could be... but it's like way to early to tell, right?" Jormungandr shook his head and walked over to Hamura and patted him on the shoulder, "I know you're young and may not know about the birds and the bees... but I'll tell you about it later." Jormungandr gave Hamura the thumbs up, as he teased him a bit. Loki looked over at Hamura and then looked at the two demonic love birds. "You're soft Hamura... softer than I'd expect from one of Shiki's soldiers. However there is a small chance she could be pregnant."

Loki said as she walked over towards the two of them. She the squatted down in front of the two of them. "Hmmmm... if there's a chance than... I guess banishing them both would be better. But the child could be problematic in the future. Witch and Devil Hybrid... could be very dangerous." Jormungandr responded, as she folded his arms and looked over at the two. Loki looked back at her son, "It won't be anything we can't handle." Loki turned her attention back towards the two of them in front of her, "Besides... there are ways to... manipulate it's future." Loki looked at the two in front of her and weaved hand seals with her left hand.

Her Sharigan glared into their very souls and she spoke, "You will remain in hell, and raise any offspring you have, to be better. You must strive to make them into beings of virtue, that can be boon to the human race, not a threat. This is you punishment... this is your Geas. Understood?" As she said this both of their eyes glazed over, and they stared blankly at Loki. They both then nodded their heads, "Yes... We understand." Loki stood up and dusted off her hands saying, "Good..." As she stood there, she began to chant something under her breath. And then her energy over flowed.

A devil was then summon forth by Loki herself, and it stood before her. She stared at it, and then said, "Take these 2. Keep them together." As she made the request this knew devil looked at her, "Payment..."

"You get to keep your life." Loki said plainly. The Devil looked at her and could see the two Y'la spirits that were floating next to her. Those alone were enough to give it pause, then he felt the flood of power coming off of her. "I still need some sort of payment."

"Take a look at you passengers there. They'll be payment enough." The devil turned to look at the subdued, and spelled Individuals. They didn't seem to be fighting the moment, as they were Geased to live in hell for all time, so they would do nothing to slow their ability to get back. "Hmmm... Very well. I accept your terms." The Devil then vanished as hellfire engulfed the three of them and they disappeared. Loki let out an annoyed sigh and then said, "The Geas should stick, but there's always the possibility that it will not. If that comes to pass, they'll be back... and if she was pregnant, than they'll be back with a powerful beast in tow. I hope you will be ready to face the responsibility when that time comes."

Loki turned and walked back out of the well that they had been in. Jormungandr place his hand into his pocket and then followed after his mother. Once they were outside, Loki turned to Jormungandr... "I think it's about time... we headed home." Jormungandr nodded his head, and then turned to Hamura and then looked back at his mother, "Ummm, if they come back, and Hamura has to deal with them. Wouldn't it be best to make sure he's ready?" Loki raised an eyebrow, and then looked at Hamura, "If h want's to come with us I don't mind, you could use a training partner other than that old Vamp. But that would be up to him and your father."

[Hamura]

While things might have sounded weak of him, he felt like it was punishment enough to send the two down to hell, where one of the people that was responsible for sealing away the demons and devils would most likely not be welcomed. Still, he felt like it gave them a chance to survive, even though the odds would not be in their favor at all. When Loki called in a devil as well, it made him wonder why the necromancer had resolved to the summoning of a devil by spilling blood and wasting lives, yet Loki did not. Figuring that this was because the devil she had summoned was perhaps less powerful and the other one had been bound by magic, he did not really care much for either of them. So far, the demon he had seen had been gross, while the devils he had seen had been self-serving and greedy, not to mention that they were stronger than he was.

If creatures like that were to come by in force and break these seals that kept them from the shinobi world, there was no doubt in his mind that they would likely win if it came down to strength and power alone. While people like Loki might be able to stand their ground, at least for some time, there would come a point where people like her would die too. Given the stories of the legendary shinobi of old, Hamura did not know a whole lot of shinobi that were even close to their level. Aside from Loki and Shiki, most other fighters, shinobi or otherwise, would not last long in a war with demonic forces. If anything, the world had grown weak due to the times of peace and prosperity, just as Shiki had said. When the devils and the necromancer eventually disappeared in a burst of flame, Hamura's clone burst apart, sending the things he had seen and experienced back to Hamura who was still waiting outside.

Entering through the well, he walked up to Loki and Jormungandr as they were in the middle of a discussion. Talking about how the potential offspring of a devil and a warlock would make for an incredibly powerful opponent, Jormungandr brought up that it would be quite something for someone like Hamura to fight against. While he hoped that he would never need to, he knew better than to believe that this child would grow up to be a virtuous being with a father like that, though that was what he wanted it to become none the less. But if it were to turn out that Loki was right and that it would become a threat somewhere down the line, the young shinobi did not believe himself to be capable enough to stop it. So when Jormungandr and Loki brought up that they could take him with them in the hopes of getting him ready for such things, he would not waste the opportunity.

"Personally, I feel like I can hold my own with a sword, even though the only real weapon I have is this old Tanto my grandfather gave me. I can hear and smell most people coming from far away, and my reflexes are quite well developed. As for my mind, I guess I'm a pretty quick study, though I don't think any of those things would do much to help me beat a creature like that."

Temporarily bringing up the things he was actually good at so Jormungandr and Loki would not believe him to be some kind of incapable, impotent child, he also brought up the fact that he did not honestly believe himself to stand much of a chance against monsters like the ones that had just been sent down to hell. It was true that he could somehow feel people and things coming at him, that he could hear and locate things from quite a distance and respond to it almost before his mind even registered it. Aside from that, he truly was a prodigy when it came to studying and learning how to utilize new information and teachings, but all of that was just by mere human standards. When faced with whatever Loki and Jormungandr were, or with these devils or devil hybrids, he was already on the losing end because most of them were immortal, at least in terms of longevity. He however, had only walked the earth for twelve years, and was just a fleshy mortal to boot.

"So if you guys have something laying around back where you live, or have some place where I can study up on these things and how to beat them, I'll be coming with you."



[Potential Exit]

[Madame Loki]

"We are going to a place filled with creatures and individuals, much more powerful than anything you have seen here today. There is a school there, that I intend to enroll Jormungandr. His only 4 months old, but today's events have shown me that he is more than ready." When Loki said this Jormungandr smiled and then in a puff of smoke, he transformed into his true form, being to excited to hold back what he was. The Huge Quetzalcoatl newborne slithered around it's mother, and licked her with his forked tongue, with a clear smile on it's face.

"If you wish to come with us, then take my hand." Loki reached out her hand and waited for Hamura to take it. She then vanished in a flash of Yellow flickering light. She also took Shiki with them as well, as they teleport-ed to the front gate of Alleve's Hallow.
