Nibankari (Posting ready, SIGN-UPS CLOSED FOR NOW)

"Warn us about what?" Jas lazily looks back at Solon.

[X_Hero]

They were now inside the temple, and the inside was just as amazing as the outside. Small windows all along the inside of the temple let in the light of outside and hit the other wall. After looking through for a bit, they came to a large room, where on the opposite side, were steps leading up to what appeared to be a sphere that was broken in several places.

"Wow..." Akutai awed at the magnificence of the sight.

[THEBIRD]

"Don't touch anything," Solon snapped. He hid his left arm behind his back and kept his distance from the sphere.

[Anarchy_Jas]

"Why are you so darn jumpy," Jas kneels down by the broken sphere. I don't even know your name, so how are you gonna tell me what to do?"

[Nils_13]

Ryuki walked up to the sphere, completely oblivious to anything around him. He looked at the shards lying around it. He snapped out of his trance, and looked at the light dancing off of the walls. It was amazing, better than any story he had read in his life. Finally, he said something,

"Sol, quit worrying..... You're just wasting your breath...." he said, continuing to bask in the radiance of the room.

[X_Hero]

A rumbling began to sound. It was faint, but it was noticeable enough for them to be weary.

"What's that...?" Akutai asked a bit nervously.

Out of nowhere, a large creature ripped through one of the side walls of the room, sending pieces of rock everywhere.

The creature was deep violet and black in color, with menacing red eyes and large teeth that could possibly shred you to pieces with just one bite. It stood atop three legs which were attached to its body, and two arms with scythes at the ends waved at the group. Akutai recognized it instantly, and just stood there.

"Me-kashikyo..." Akutai said, his voice trembling a bit.

[Anarchy_Jas]

Jas reaches for her Duel Vipers. She stares at the creature waiting for it to make a move.

[THEBIRD]

"Oh no... Not again. See, Solon? This is what happens when you try and help people. That's why you stick to being an assassin. Stick to being an assassin!," he said to himself. "Can we atleast not touch the sphere?" he added to everyone else.

[Nils_13]

"Oh, no....." Ryuki muttered. This was one of the few times he had been terrified in his life. He stared at the menacing look of the creature, unable to do anything. His life passed before him, as it does with nearly everyone in a life or death situation. It was almost as time itself had slowed down, each second seeming like hours. Ryuki felt like he was just frozen in that flux in time, unable to act. His breathing began to slow as the realization of the danger he was in took its place in his mind. He had read some about the vile, wicked creatures before, but he thought he'd never face one in real life.

"Th.... they.... they're not supposed to be on the islands..... This is.... impossible!" his mind tried to battle with the complexity and danger of the situation all at once. It was too overwhelming.

[THEBIRD]

"Am your Viper at its eyes!" hissed Solon to Jas. "It being blind can only help us."

[Anarchy_Jas]

"Come on you big chickens," Jas continues to watch the creature. "It looks like it's fight or die now..." She whips her Vipers out, and starts shooting.

[X_Hero]

The bullets only bounced off of the thick skin of the creature. Akutai had no clue on what to do. But from behind the creature, the broken sphere faintly flashed a bit of light. It wasn't very strong, but it was enough to get Akutai's attention. He then noticed that his sword was already back in it's sheath. Could this have to with that sphere? He drew the sword again, and it was glowing like before.

"... I think we have to fight it another way." Akutai said, his fear somehow beginning to ebb away slowly.

[THEBIRD]

Solon relaxed in one of the palace chairs.

"It's different every time," he sighed, leaning back. "Enjoy the fun while it lasts."

[Nils_13]

"Calm down, Ryuki...." he told himself over and over again in his head. He finally regained enough sense to analyze the situation and react. He pulled out his book and staff. His staff was glowing with the same faint light as the sphere behind the demon. He bscked up enough to be out of danger, for the time being.

"Let's see how resilient you are to magic...." he muttered. He began to mouth a spell. It was the same one he had shown to Akutai. Needles of ice formed in front of Ryuki. He held the hand with his book in it out towards the creature, causing the needles to fire at it.

[Anarchy_Jas]

Jas growls, and starts trying to look for a weak spot on the thing.
