Hane had never seen Tenshi like this. She'd fakes tears before, to get the Guard to give in, but never like this. Hane didn't make any expression, but it pained him to see her like this. But she had reason. This illusion, it represented someone from Tenshi's past, and it was someone close to her. No one else here could even fathom what this person meant to Tenshi. Mo perhaps, but even he didn't seem to react to this person. Hane could only just grasp at what an immortal person, seeing someone from their mortal life, felt. The guard watched her silently, down at Tenshi as she refused to do anything against the illusion. Finally, Hane took a deep breath, letting it out to break the silence, and then leaning forward to give Tenshi a hug. The very first, and probably only hug Hane would give someone. "I understand, Tenshi." He muttered, before pulling away and turning around, prepared to face the illusion now like any other enemy. No, this illusion wasn't an opponent, he was a pain that was plaguing Tenshi, that Hane promised to remove as swiftly as possible. The illusion prepared to attack, but the instant Hane's eyes glowed, the fight was already over. His training and new strength made Hane's Light-Speed attack impossible to even follow. The illusion of Tenshi's past tried to react, but only left a small gash on Hane's side, in return for the Guard's sword going right through his chest.

Mitasu was a little annoyed that her Illusions were defeated so quickly. But they served their purpose, leaving the field open for her last game, Mitasu could tell she would not walk out of here alive as she was, but she wouldn't go down without a fight, wouldn't go down without breaking Tenshi as much as she could. Taking a breath, Mitasu created the last of her pawns, smirking slightly as the creation in her arms came to life. If this didn't break Tenshi, nothing would. Gesturing for the others to follow, Mitasu walked out from behind the rocks, facing off against them all. Sayo, Iruka and Sakana following behind, and Tenshi's unborn child in her arms, in a hope to show Tenshi exactly what she lost all those apparent years ago... Because if she reacted so strongly to Rifi, then this will be much worse. "Don't you all look Broken. Tenshi dear its been such a long time, your daughter says hi." Mitasu smirked as she brought the baby closer to her, keeping the face hidden to torment her more. "Oh yes, your baby would have been a girl, so cute and innocent. Such a shame my beloved boss killed her before you ever knew." The baby began to cry, and Mitasu gave a chuckle. "Don't worry little one, your mother will be joining you soon."

Hane felt like more damage was done by removing the threat before Tenshi's eyes, than to let it remain. He felt pain in his chest, knowing how badly it had felt to remove his own friends, even nightmare versions of them, and then just thinking how much suffering it must have caused Tenshi. But Hane hadn't hesitated, knowing what a worse outcome could be should he choose to not act today. And, in defeating this illusion, Mitasu finally decided to show herself, marching out from behind the rocks with a small group in her wake. Hane's eyes fell to the child in her arms, eyes glaring up to the witch as she spoke. So, her only option left was to break Tenshi, try and wound the one that feinted confidence daily, but could be considered the easiest of all to break. That was why Hane believed she was being targeted, and why Mitasu was using her energy to summon all of these people. Friends, Hane assumed, from Tenshi's past. Silent as ever, Hane only listened to the acidic words of Mitasu, trying to resist what she said. But, when the wicked Demoness mentioned what this child's fate clearly was, and how she planned on having Tenshi join, Hane did finally snap. Without noise, of course, but he went against his wise judgement to activate his magic again. It probably wouldn't hurt, considering how strong everyone was right now, but with the speed, Hane felt the strain as well. He couldn't get to the infant, but the others around Tenshi, Hane made quick work of. He'd done a loop around Mitasu, slicing through all three before coming to stop before Tenshi. The guard took a few breaths, "If cowardliness is how you wish to die Mitasu, then so be it. But don't think you will harm Tenshi before you die."

Tenshi froze as Hane gave her a hug, the one and only he ever gave and willingly was a part of, she was shocked to say the least, this being far too unlike him. She briefly noticed Rifi's illusion disappear, Hane having got rid of him. It hurt to see again, the memories of his first death plaguing her mind, but she knew against it all it wasn't real, and Hane did the right thing... It was so much easier this way. She heard herself whisper a faint 'thank you' to him, whether he heard it or not another matter. But that was quickly diminished as Mitasu spoke. Tenshi looked up, eyes widening once more at those around Mitasu, more realistic illusions, before her eyes settled and remained on the bundle in her arms, her simple words screaming in her ears. Tenshi's hands moved to her stomach, the ghost touch of the baby she lost thanks Shinda. It hurt, too much to think about, this baby in Mitasu's arms used as something to break her, and Tenshi hated to admit it was working. All she wanted to do was go over there and take this baby away from the monster, cuddle her and protect her from harm. But Hane acted before anything more, killing the other illusions behind, even if the damage caused was too late to fix. Tenshi began to cry once more, when hearing Hane, seeing what he would do to help, and now she was stuck trying to stop him for hurting this illusion of her baby before she could at least see what she lost, and asking him to end its life so she didn't have to live with that knowledge... Even hearing her baby would have been a girl was enough to break Tenshi. She could feel herself shake as she held onto Hane, wanting the support from someone she trusted, though she would apologise later, having made her choice. "Hane... I cant... I want to know, but I cant. Please." Tenshi didn't know if he would understand, she barely understood herself, but she hoped the slight courage she has found to talk to Mitasu would be enough to make it all clearer. "Its all a lie Mitasu, I wont fall for your tricks again." Tenshi knew saying that was too late, she already had, but it was easier to fake the confidence, then let Mitasu see how badly she was broken. |

Akvan sent a mental thank you to his sisters, they seemed to have courage he and Gensho didn't. Blinking a few times, Akvan placed a hand on Gensho's shoulder, thinking it was about time after all these years that he play the supportive one. "Gensho, i-it's alright. He's not real. The Onrah we know, w-would never say that." He muttered, before taking a breath. With all said, Akvan couldn't resist averting his eyes when Onrah was struck down, the blood seemed so real, and pulled up the memories of what the brother witnessed that night long ago. But Akvan was grateful he was gone, Hada and Labari did well. Now it was time to wake up and stop all of this suffering, before Mitasu got her way over all of them. He looked around, finding his eyes on Mitasu and how she finally emerged, tormenting Tenshi with illusions. The ex-queen was completely broken by them, despite the confidence in her last words, Akvan could see the truth in her soul. Mitasu had gone far enough, and it would come to an end now. Feeling guilty for not helping as he'd promised, to distracted with the nightmare Mitasu gave him, Akvan was quick to move. He took a quick glance at the baby in Mitasu's arms, fighting to ignore what horrors it stood for and just looking instead at the magic it was made from. Then Akvan rose an arm, "Mirror Magic: Nightmare Illusion Magic." He chanted, feeling the new flow of magic. With it, Akvan took control of what Mitasu could do, and into her own mind as well. The evil she did to others came from suffering of their past, and now Akvan could do that very same thing to the original Nightmare murderer. First, he cancelled the illusion of the infant, making it disappear without a sign of suffering to cause further pain. And then he attempted to see what in Mitasu's past he could use. There was emptiness in her mind, other than a few memories, but the first Akvan witnessed was enough for him to pull back. He saw a Demonic creature, with soulless white hair and purple eyes, and a gaze he of all people couldn't forget. Akvan couldn't summon an illusion against Mitasu, since there wasn't one, he could only make sure she could summon no more. Beside, what Akvan saw distracted him heavily, holding the Sun child's breath back. "You... knew him? Mitasu... you knew Shinda?" He asked towards the witch, fury in his eyes at even the mention of that name.

Despite the confidence Tenshi showed, Mitasu knew so much better, she knew her plan worked, and that she was broken, just as she tried to do years ago. It was a feat in itself, and she hoped that she would have done Shinda proud if he was here. But the sudden switch in things made Mitasu laugh, as the Sun Child came into play. She could feel what he was trying to do, and she was lucky that there was none he could use against her, having made sure she had no care for anyone once the war started all those years ago. But seeing his shocked expression, made things all the more sweeter, as it showed of more ways to bring out the worst in people, as well as get some revenge, and some joy. Smirking as she looked to the Sun Tear, Mitasu cocked her head, not all bothered by having no illusions to back her up. "Knew Shinda? Tenshi never tell you? I was second in command for him in the war, doing anything he asked of me. He is my boss." Mitasu looked to Mo at this point, if they knew not that Mitasu knew Shinda, then it was obvious, they never knew of his involvement. "Shinda meant a lot to certain individuals here. I wasn't the only one who knew him... He had a lot of Demons on his side back then." Mitasu gave a small smirk over to Mo, before turning her attention back to Tenshi. "Tenshi here knew him quiet well, he was the one to kill all her friends, her love, her unborn child, tried to kill her... It didn't help that once, before he knew of the Angels true nature, he was to become her dear brother in law..." It was always something Mitasu laughed at, how ironic it all was. But that time was over, Mitasu reached down to her blade, swinging it in her hand once, looking back to the group. "Hmm, I'm tired of talking." In a single blink of an eye, Mitasu had moved towards Tenshi and Mo, the two being the only ones she wished to kill, Mo for lying to her, and more so Tenshi as un finished business. No longer caring of the others, and their involvement.

Mitasu wasn't going anywhere without a fight, Mo could have smiled at the effort she went to to break the others. It reminded him of the past they shared, the war they fought together. As much as Mo cared for her, he also knew Mitasu would die today. Another friend lost. Mo remained outside of the fights, looking to the nightmares Mitasu gave Tenshi. He didn't recognise them, people clearly lost before Mo was old enough to remember them. But Tenshi seemed to care a lot, which told Mo just how close she was to them. The Demon stayed away, letting her old guard take care of things. Mitasu was determined to take Tenshi down with her. He looked up to her as the Demoness directed him and Tenshi, peach eyes just begging Mitasu not to let anything slip. She spoke of Shinda, and the way she put it annoyed Mo. The purple Demons lips lifted with a growl, "He did once, but don't forget what he became Mitasu. That Demon was a monster! He manipulated us, and perhaps he's still manipulating you..." Mo called towards Mitasu. He glanced up to Tenshi, then back to his once friend, "I thought I could bring back a friend of mine, and have you help us create the future we really wanted. But, maybe the poison Shinda placed in your mind is still fresh." He mumbled, looking towards Tenshi again. He dodged Mitasu's attack, landing close to Tenshi. "Tenshi, I want you to realise I'm still on your side, there are doubts I'm sure, but everything I've done is for the sake of the world we want to create." Mo stated, and even as he spoke his body began to change and grow into that of his Dragon form. "And I'll take down my old friend, for the sake of my new ones." Mo growled, turning to Mitasu. Things were different now, Mo had a lot of power, even backed up by the Sun child's influence. He gave Mitasu one last look, a smirk, that only she could see. Before his snake like neck whipped forwards, and jaws snapped around Mitasu's weaker body.

Tenshi wasn't proud to say that she hid behind Hane throughout everything, but that's precisely what she did. Mitasu wasn't someone Tenshi wanted to mess with herself, and she knew she couldn't fight even if she wanted to. And hearing Mitasu talking about Shinda sent shivers down her spine as she remembered what started his reign, his drive for the war, and how he killed his friends because of all of it, seemingly non remorseful for them. Memories of better times filling her mind, alongside the fear of what people would thing when hearing of this. But noticing the look Mitasu sent to Mo made Tenshi question things, despite how she was feeling right now, and Mo's words, she wanted to believe them, knowing that Mo changed sides once, but hearing how he was the one to bring her back... It was too much, seeing as he could have told them earlier on. But she would give him the benefit of the doubt for now, for old times sake. She shook as Mo changed, taking down Mitasu once and for all, the only long term injuries claimed here being mental ones, and the physical able to be fixed with time. Tenshi let herself relax seeing Mitasu dead, the woman no longer able to plague the world, relief running through her body. But it didn't remain long, as the events came rushing back. Clenching her fists, Tenshi moved away from Hane, looking to Mo. "Thank you, Mo." She was thankful to her old friend for what he has done, even if it was difficult to show it. But it was all too much, looking to the group, gaze lingering on Hane, Tenshi dropped her gaze as she prepared her wings. "I'm sorry everyone..." With that, Tenshi left for Shiro, needing time to recuperate from the events, and to sort out her own feelings, and prepare for the inevitable explanation she will need to give to people. |
