Blye was overjoyed to hear Kakushin agree to help him. Blye hadn't looked too much into the future, he wanted it to be a challenge of his resolve to do all of this without getting hints on how to do it. He was so glad that bringing the King his children, albeit to witness an awkward reunion, worked in his favour. Kakushin had actually looked to Blye with belief, like he thought the young man really had the power to everything he said he would. And now, he had a King on his side. Not yet friends, but allies, and Blye knew he could rely on Kakushin to stand up for him, accept the King of Humans at least on the Angel front. All Blye needed now was Humanity to stand with him. He had a feeling Demons already were, with their King healing from fatal wounds, but knowing the connection between the Angel and Demon King, Blye knew Rurushu would be just as fine with this new crown.
Now, they went to officially end the war. It was enough that the Angels and Demons had given in, but there was one group that remained to hold the flag of war. The Saints, a group made by the Council, the only spearhead of Humanity left, that right now didn't have anywhere to point. It was a battalion no longer needed, so Blye knew peace must be made there before anywhere else. He agreed to not only go with Kakushin, but Blye also offered to speak on the King's behalf, as well as his own. Things would go well here, Blye was confident, without even glancing into the future to check. They soon got near the Temple, it wasn't far from this area of Rycora. Blye glanced over the half destroyed structure, taking a quick glance into the future. He turned back to Kakushin, the children and his guard. "Many have already left, I'd say the ones left here are those who valued this place more as a home than a base for war." Blye stated, walking closer. They were in view of the Temple, if there was anyone left to guard it, and eventually Blye called out. "Anyone who remains inside!" Blye called, cupping his hands around his mouth. "I am Blye Setai-Nushi, future King of Humans, and I come here with the King of Angels. We wish to end this conflict, and end it peacefully. Are there any among you who wish for the same thing? If so, we would be honoured to talk to you!"

Hino was glad for Doragon's help with the ones who remained behind to help and to save what was left of their home. Hino didn't think he could do this alone, not after losing Marzzi, and in fear for his poor children back at the orphanage, as well as helping Jasper and comfort the others in grieving. It was all too much even for him. He didn't blame Kakushin for what he did, he understood the pain and hatred he must feel, all he blamed him for was the death of those innocent, or those who wanted to change things by the end. People like Banto, Hino cared not for, too lost already. Not much of the temple remained in tack, but the lower levels had resistance, and were almost as they were, few extra landmarks now in place, so it wasn't difficult hiding out here and feeling safe. The disappearance of the two children from their cell baffled the others, but Hino knew they must have been reunited with their father somehow, and that took some off the pressure of Hino... Even if the shouting from outside suddenly put it back on. Hino was closely followed by a couple of the others as he headed out, Jasper in no condition to do so himself. He didn't fear facing the king, but he did worry for what might become if the wrong thing is said, but he would do nothing but try and set things right. Looking to the group, Hino gave a smile and a nod to all before speaking. "All who are here want the same thing, too much death and pain has been suffered from all of our mistakes." It was as good as any to start with, before Hino looked to the two kids and smiling. "I'm glad you are back home with your parents Sky and Art. I did not wish to keep you trapped here much longer, and as you both know, never at all in the first place." Hino looked to Hane next, having heard years back on what happened to the guard. "I apologise for what happened to you, if I had known Banto planned such a thing, I would have tried to stop something, no one should suffer like that for simply protecting." Here Hino turned to Kaku, and though a little wary, held his hand out for the king to shake. "My formal apologies to you as well. I understand your pain, and I hope you can begin to understand some of us here never wanted a war, it was all the councils games and mind tricks that caused this. Some had no where else to go, all we wanted was for this place to be a home, one that could protect, this war has shown how that was lies to cover the truth." Hino didn't say much more to the king, letting him think over what was said, as Hino knew some may have tried this tactic before, but he then turned to this Blye and holding out his hand for him to shake as well. "Hino Esu, current in command of the Saints as Jasper recovers, we want peace as well, we wont play as the councils puppets any longer."

Kakushin planned to hang back for much of this at first. But that changed when he saw the Temple once more. Something he'd destroyed, inside there were probably people still suffering, crying over lost loves ones. Kakushin looked away, only clearing his head when Blye started to speak. Reassured by the Human's words, Kakushin let the blue-haired young man call to the Saints. Quite soon, a group came out of the Temple. Kakushin recognised them all, the one at the front most of all. Hino, one of the original members. He was one of the few Kakushin hadn't hated, though then again, many Kaku did hate hadn't been entirely under his control. The King's face relaxed more and more as Hino spoke, first to the children, then to Hane. Apologising for the actions of his Saints. Or rather, the individuals who had done Kakushin's family such harm. Hane finally spoke up, "It was my honour to protect them. Suffer as I may have for the past years, it was my duty. That being said, this Banto, he is dead now, yes?" Hane asked, there was almost a flicker of a smirk to his last question. Kakushin chuckled a little, though rather dryly, before he had Hino's attention. Kakushin looked to the offered hand for a little while, silent in his thoughts, before one of his hands appeared from behind his robe, taking a firm grasp of Hino's. "There are apologies to be said on both sides. We both had a common enemy to fight, and yet for these long years, our attentions were only on one another. This war was just a giant set up to bait Angels and Demons alike into fighting, and we were foolish enough to be tricked, just as you had been by your Council. So, I am sorry for the damage I have done to your Temple, perhaps... once things settle, we can agree to trade assistance, into rebuilding your home as well as mine. It may have been before your time, but at one point, it was my job to create Peace. A part of me wants to return to that old job." Kakushin replied, smiling slightly.
It seemed to stand that everyone wanted peace here. But of course, just this small group of ten or so people couldn't stop such a large conflict. They needed to hit the true source, which apparently, wasn't the Saints. Kakushin waited for Hino to finished, seeing how Blye was ready to talk, and took a hold of the young man's shoulder to interrupt. "This war has broken many things, including a sense of order for all our races. I plan to return to lead my people, as small a race as they might be now. But, if you wanted my opinion, Humanity also needs a leader, and this Council of yours has never really fit the role." Kakushin stated, glancing to Blye a little. "There is a crusader of peace amongst your people, that I would humbly recommend for the task. For as of the whole hour I've known him, he's done nothing but inspire." Kakushin added, gesturing to Blye, if his speech wasn't enough. Kaku didn't say anymore. Blye wanted to take the crown, become Humanities King, so he needed to speak for himself.

Things were going well, Blye stood there and smiled as Hino spoke to Kakushin, and the others. Apologies all round, so it seemed. A perfect outcome, considering how it could have turned out, if corruption was still in the hearts of the Saints. One could say, that is was a good thing Kakushin killed some in the Saints. Death wasn't necessarily evil, cutting life short for someone was, but it all depended on when one was destined to die, their purpose for the future. The deaths of those in the Saints. Some weren't for a cause, and Kakushin rightly apologised for that, but others, they had a purpose in dying. The purpose of making peace possible right now. Blye seemed to stare off at nothing at some point, letting the two sides raise the white flag together. It was done, pretty much, now. Only a few more steps, Blye thought to himself. His blue eyes moved to Hino when the Saint spoke to him, and Blye smiled, returning the hand shake. "Hino Esu, you do a good job. Not only for this place, but for the orphanage, a place close to your heart. It seems you value family more than anything, as well as giving help to those who sorely need it. I like that." Blye replied, filing Hino's past along with the others. Something Blye didn't predict was Kakushin suddenly turning to Blye, and speaking on his behalf. The boy felt surprised to hear Kakushin recommend him, and very honoured, to the point of almost blushing. Blye chuckled, looking to the King of Angels and nodding his head. "Kakushin speaks the truth, our race does need a leader, like any successful group. It's a role I've longed to take for my whole life. It might not sound very humble of me to be so confident about accepting such power, and assuming I'm perfect for it, but I am confident. I'm confident that I can help change things, not just for Humans, but for everyone. I don't just want to make our nation proud, I also want to make every future generation proud of us too, and our friends in the skies. Let the word Humanity ring with ideas of compassion rather than greed." Blye replied. He bowed his head a little to Hino. "Of course, becoming someone so high up isn't done with just the words of one. I ask for the support of you, Hino, and all the Saints here, in my journey to accept the crown. I've said this to Kakushin, that I will refuse to take the role as King until it is granted to me from my friends and allies. So I want those I trust, and those who can put their trust in me, to be the ones give me that crown. I ask if you, and your family here, would become my friends?"

Hino was taken back that Kakushin apologised, but wouldn't complain, and he was grateful for such a gesture, one he was more then willing to accept and knew Jasper would take as well. He only hoped that if Marzzi were here, he would also do the same, even if Hino knew he would if Hino's next words were answered. "Most here never wanted your home destroyed in the first place, and it created much tension from the beginning, I'm certain they would be more then willing to help, alongside me. But I wont force my family into doing so, but know if you need assistance, you can find it here." Hino was more then willing to help out, and knew others who would be as well, but he would not force it, and he hoped Kaku understood. "If I may, once things have settled down and peace is restored, understanding if you do not wish this, as I wont blame you. But can you please make sure Marzzi is well wherever he ends up, his views all changed once we found out about the council, and I do not wish for my brother to suffer." It was a lot to ask, but Hino needed to, if for Marzzi's sake, he was always a brother to him, and a great friend to many, a protector, Hino couldn't imagine him suffering for what he had done under bad influence. Hino turned to Blye here, just as taken back with him as Kakushin with his knowledge and desires, but they were much agreed upon, as well as hoped for, and Hino had no doubts that he would make a find king to them. But he did have some issues he wished to raise before accepting fully, if only due to bad experiences. "I would wholeheartedly accept right now, as I fully agree and trust you. But before I offer that, I must say this. Jasper is not to be used any longer, the council almost killed him for his views and beliefs, I will not allow that to happen again. And my family here, are not to be used as puppets again, I trust you wont do either, but I must hear you say it for the benefit of it being set in stone." Hino would not let them be used again, wouldn't let everyone feel as if they had to do anything said again, not after all this.

Blye went back to listening, before pursing his lips on an idea. Like a schoolboy, he raised his hand a little. "If I could offer something here... My assistance is also up for offer when it comes to rebuilding both of your homes. It is the least I can do, if.. with your help, I can fulfil my dreams." Blye added, smiling brightly. How exactly the small young man could help, they'd have to find out. Blye knew exactly how, but he'd keep that hidden, sometimes surprises were nice. Kakushin's gaze turned away for a moment, the mention of a name seemed to tug at his emotions. "I don't know if our friend made it up to Aura or not. But, he died by accident, with blood on my blade. If he has made it, I promise he'll be looked after." Kakushin replied, a small smile returning to his face.
Blye looked to Hino, a grin continuously growing on the future King's face as Hino agreed to trust Blye in his endeavour. There were conditions of course, and Blye nodded his head a little as Hino spoke. All understandable reasons, terms that Blye needed to meet in order to have friends in Hino and his Saints. Blye pushed up his glasses, "You will have more than just my word that I won't use Jasper, or any of you." Blye announced, hands pushing down into his pockets. "Might I see Jasper? He is badly injured correct? You and Marzzi found him outside the Baransu Tower and brought him back here." Blye asked, barely waiting for an answer before moving to go inside the Temple. Led by the Saints, with Kakushin and his little band of Angels following hesitantly, seeing what bad memories this place had, Blye took a look at all the damage the Temple had taken. Repaired in places, but since the attack had happened so recently, evidence of the destruction was still very obvious. They walked quietly, with Blye staring at a wall, before he suddenly cleared his throat loudly. Getting his party's attention, Blye took one hand from his pocket, and placed it against the wall. With one pulse of blue energy that rippled through the stone work, everything around them suddenly began to shake. Blye channelled his Reverse Time magic, and caused the Temple to start repairing itself. Broken bricks reformed together and floated back into gaps in the walls. Pillars realigned and held up a slowly rising ceiling. With a few scraps and cracks as stone connected against stone, and after a few minutes, the structure was completely rewound to it's fixed state. Blye's magic returned into his hand, the young man exhaling heavily, before turning back to Hino, with an innocent grin on his face.

Post by Saiken on Mar 5, 2016 22:37:04 GMT
Saiken was one of the few who stayed behind when the voices called out, and despite the fear he felt when both Haru and Doragon went with, he knew his brothers would be okay, and with the little noise from outside, he knew no major battle begin. It gave him confidence to follow out, he wanted to see if Sky and Art had made it back to their parents okay after the disappearance, as well as help out however he could. He had no problem finding his way around the halls, having walked them so often, even with the rubble around, he only had a problem as he got closer to voices, and one of the fallen pillars he stood on began to move. Sliding off, Saiken smiled and gave a laugh before looking to see who it was making this possible, eyes shining at the sight and all those around, even if there was slight fear of the Angel king... But he ignored it, if Hino, Doragon and Haru let him in, then he must be safe. "THAT WAS SO COOL! YOU HAVE GOTTA TELL ME HOW YOU DID THAT!" Saiken came rushing over skidding to a stop in front of the man, his enjoyment strange considering all that recently occurred, but Saiken had gone through these things so often, he knew there was no point dwelling on the bad. His eyes moved to his two younger friends and smiling. "I'm so glad your both okay, gave us all a fright when you disappeared..." Saiken again, hadn't spoken to them much over time, but it was enough to consider both friends and be grateful they were alright.

Whilst Blye was willing to press on, the others were stuck just staring at him. Blye almost felt like blushing at all the attention. Someone else came rushing along, a younger boy, and Blye chuckled awkwardly at all the awe the boy gave him. Blye looked down to the kid. "It's just my magic, Saiken, just like yours is to control metals, your brother Doragon can control elements and Haru can move the earth or make things grow." Blye announced, grinning a little more. It was practically second nature to check a person's past the moment he spoke to them. Perhaps to Saiken, Blye looked like a mind reader, meanwhile the truth was that Blye had simply had a good long read at the boy's past. Another interesting one, then again, Blye thought the history of every single person he met was inspiring. Blye looked up towards Hino. "I hope this serves as a symbol of my word, at least part of it. I'd still like to meet your friend Jasper." Blye said, waiting to press on to find the resting leader. Kakushin had moved up to Blye's side. "This power is incredible... Could I ask, if you plan to?" Kakushin began to ask, almost reluctant to say his wish, as if it wasn't right to ask Blye to keep performing his little 'miracles'. Blye simply chuckled. "Oh, I plan to help fix your home, I did say I would, didn't I?" Blye replied, and a little more light seemed to return to the Angel King's eyes. Behind them, the children seemed to converse about things. Art seemed shy about Saiken at first, knowing his face but only that, right now everything was pretty new to the young boy. He eventually spoke back though. "It was super scary! Me and Sky were here then boo! We were in a forest!"

After the first initial moment, Sky remained silent, holding Arts hand and trailing behind the others. There was so much she wanted and needed to say, but either didn't have the words, or moment to tell them. Hane, Dada, Hino... All had something, and she feared for Havok as well, as she hadn't seem him yet, nor got word on his health. It wasn't until Saiken came along, and Art spoke about it all did Sky snap, and get out everything she needed to say. "Saiken, I'm so glad your okay as well, what about the others? Jasper... How's he doing?" Sky needed to know, with what was being said about him being hurt, Sky feared that it may be too late, and she didn't want that. "Da- Kaku... How's Papa? You have yet to mention him." Sky had a mix of hatred and sadness to her voice. Hatred to Kaku for what she had heard, she didn't think she could forgive him for that, and Sadness as Papa wasn't here as well, and that means something is wrong. Next she turned to Hane, eyes setting in a glare as she worked out something more to say to him. "Stupid old man, did you even fucking think about what we would feel if you really did die for our sake... WE THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD." Sky hated thinking that all these years, and she knew if she didn't say that now, she wouldn't, and that was a memory she refused to keep to herself. Turning to Hino now, Sky gave him a smile. "Thank you, I know you think this was a prison to us, and I admit it was, but you and several others tried to have us comfortable, and I will never forget that effort you made." Sky knew she wouldn't hate any of the survivors an those who remained, as they were mainly the ones to help out, and despite it all, she would miss Marzzi, even if he wasn't the nicest. She hoped he would be reborn, and she would make sure Dada... Kaku, would follow through on his promise, and get Papa on her side if need be. Turning next to Blye, not wishing to miss him out, Sky kept these words short and simple. "Thank you, and sorry for all your losses." She knew he would know, having looked into his memories briefly and seeing much pain, she had no doubt that he would do the humans good, and keep to all his promises. Sky was about to say something to the others, but that is when she caught glimpse down the hallway, eyes widening in happiness and joy. "HAVOK!" Sky went running down the hallway, jumping into his arms and sobbing. "Your alive! Thank god. You okay, how hurt are you?"

Post by Havok Feron on Mar 6, 2016 21:59:34 GMT
There was only so much a kid with a damaged mind could take. Havok was first told to not trust Banto, then he and his master saved Marzzi from an attack, and Havok was congratulated for his bravery, working alongside Banto to protect their own. It felt so strange to the boy. As he recovered from the few wounds he'd received from the fight with the other Kyuban, Havok spent time alone. He couldn't place this feeling, like... going against Banto felt right, but also like betraying the man who'd saved Havok from being a simple minded beast. Havok had spent some time with Sky and Art, but they'd become distant ever since the time he'd taken them outside. Havok felt guilty for what happened, how it scarred them, and the only way the boy could think of to make it up to them was leave them be.
Whatever this war was for, Havok didn't know, but he had a feeling everyone else was starting to feel the same. No one knew what to do, and Havok didn't know either. When the Temple was attacked, Havok went to the highest point for a vantage, watching Banto fight the Angel. More fighting, and as it went one, Havok saw so many lives taken. Marzzi fell, as well as others. But Banto seemed hungry for more. More pain, just like Havok's master always wanted. He was a Kyuban in his own way, Banto was, and as Havok watched the battle, he grew sick of it. Years of being pushed around finally came back, and Havok only remembered feeling both angry and sorry for his master, as he pushed him from atop the tower.
With Banto gone, and many in the Saints working hard to save the others, or fix their home, Havok went in search for his two friends. The door to the dungeons had been completely blocked in by rock, which Havok worked hard on to remove, panicking as he dug away at crumbled stone. By the time Havok had gotten in, hands bloody from the digging, the cell was empty. Havok stared at the vacant prison, so confused, and even more fearful. Sky and Art were missing now, Havok's mind picturing them dead, like all the bodies the Saints had managed to pull from the rubble. The Kyuban couldn't even smell his friend's scents in the air, he had nothing to go on to find them. With all the stress, pulsing like a head-ache in Havok's head, all he could do was hide. Everyone was just as confused and helpless, and for once, Havok didn't have an owner to turn to for help in coping with it all. Banto's methods of calming Havok down might have been harsh, but they at least worked. He hid away in the library, safe and secure on the non-ruined part of the Temple. Havok didn't move until he heard voices, louder and new voices outside. His head poked slowly out of the door, trying to pick up on the voices. And, like a startled animal, the moment the Temple began to move, Havok darted for cover, hiding away from the magic, until it settled. Only then did he explore a little further, and as he turned a corner, he spotted the small group. Hino and the three brothers, followed by the Angel King, an odd man with glasses, and another Angel. Then there was a little blur, and Havok felt someone hit into his stomach, a little head of dark hair. And a voice that made Havok smile with relief. "S..Sky! You are.. alive! And Art." Havok responded, seeing the little Demon boy come rushing over too. Both were crying, which made Havok frown. "C..cry? Is.. is something w..wrong?" Havok asked, smile dropping as he worried for his little companions. "Havok... I am alive.. and.. better. No more cuts.. but I am... confused." Havok admitted, looking around, then towards the group of adults, then down to Sky, hugging her back tighter, thought his face looked pained, "Sc..scared of.. losing friends.. or what to do. My owner... B..Banto is dead now."

Sky looked up to Havok and smiled, wiping the tears from her eyes before hugging him tighter. "Happy tears, because your alive... We thought the worst happened." Sky didn't dare think what would have happened if he really was, the thought alone was terrifying. Giving another smile to Havok, Sky took his hands and pulled him down to their level so that she could look him in the eyes as she spoke. "You wont lose your friends Havok, not again. Your going to come back with us, we need our big brother around okay? It hurts too much without him." Sky didn't care what Kaku said about this, she was letting Havok stay, and that was final, whether he liked it or not. Looking down to Art, Sky patted her brother on the head, smiling down softly to him. "What do you say Art? Fancy having Havok around as big brother more permanently?" She already knew the answer, and she sent a glare back to Kaku in a dare to say otherwise on the choice, though it was probably weak due to her red eyes, Sky knew it got the point across. Dragging Havok by the hand, helping Art along, Sky brought him to the group, giving a quick introduction to those who didn't know him. "Mr Blye, Grandpa Hane, this is Havok, he helped us a lot while trapped here, he's like our big brother and you need to treat him with respect, because he's saved us on more then occasion." Sky gave a nod, hoping that nothing horrible would be said from anyone here.

To the others, Blye probably seemed like a stranger, just hanging around whilst they all spoke to one another, at long last being able to talk. The young man kept quiet as they did, but really he understood them all very well. Knowing everything about them all. To Blye, they were well-known friends, but to them, Blye was just a glasses-wearing odd man with a smile on his face. As everyone spoke, Blye kept quiet, blue eyes watching each conversation. Kakushin's eyes dropped a little when Sky, first, called him Kaku, rather than as her father, and then asked about Ru. Kakushin swallowed hard, "He's... Papa is.." Kakushin trailed off, and Sky was drawn elsewhere, to the King's relief. Blye smiled sympathetically to Kaku, before patting his shoulder. "Your husband is alright. I've given him a little bit of my magic to help, and my friends are looking after him right now. Ah, yes, my friends, you really need to meet Nick, great guy, his actions speak as well as my words do." Blye muttered, carrying on with his innocent eavesdropping into other's talks, now that the Angel King looked a little relieved. There was a gasp from behind, both Blye and Kaku alike looking back to the pale faced Hane. "I was too busy protecting your lives, young Princess. And that kind of language is beyond filthy, where on earth did you pick up such vulgar words?" Hane snapped back, face stern, but also surprised and a little hurt on only a level Hane could feel. Kakushin seemed to show a true smile from it, Blye picking up on his friend's little moment of relaxing. The young man then turned his eyes to Sky, preparing to reply to her, before she spoke first, and made Blye's eyes widen. Somehow, she knew about his past, and for a brief moment, Blye's entire appearance turned very defensive. After a moment of silence, Blye pushed up his glasses, clearing his throat a little, "I'm not.. sure what you're talking about, young Miss. But, it was my pleasure." Blye replied simply.
Sky then ran off after some boy, close to Blye's age, with blonde hair. There was a little reunion going on over there, including tears, and at some point, Art began jumping happily to something Sky asked. Then, the little group of kids came back over, Sky turning to Blye and Hane, before introducing her friend. Blye didn't really need the introduction, by the time Sky had finished talking, he knew everything about the young Kyuban boy, though his past got a bit more primal as Blye went down it. Blinking a little, Blye smiled and bowed his head. "Pleasure to meet you, Havok... Feron. Your last name is Feron, you didn't know this until now, having lost your family so young. But, you've made a very good new one, with Sky and Art here." Blye stated, smiling brightly to the Kyuban. To everyone else, Blye suddenly inhaled sharply. But for him, he'd just come back from a very soon to happen event, planning to make sure it didn't occur. He turned to Kakushin, noticing the shaky hand over the King's sword. "Havok means no harm to your children. From a young age, he was captured by Banto, altered to become simple-minded, then controlled like a slave. The fact that he'd even go so far as to go against every order and rule he'd been taught to know, just to be friends with Sky and Art, is more than enough to prove our friend here's loyalty to them. Remember what I told you about Humans? We're not all the same, well, the same goes for his kind too. And also.." Blye's eyes moved back to the confused Havok. He chuckled a little, "Yup. If I were you, I'd start warming up to Havok.. he's.. pretty important." Blye said, a mysterious tone to his future-seeing voice. Kaku's hand seemed to relax, he'd come to know, even after such a short time, that Blye didn't mess around about these things. With that settled, Blye hoped they'd move on, glancing to Sky and giving her a slight wink as they went though.

Sky gave a cheeky little smile to Grandpa Hane before chuckling. "Marzzi... We didn't see eye to eye, and I got into many verbal matches with him, the score was half and half." Thinking on all those matches, Sky kind of missed them, he always managed to make her think more then most, and she turned to Hino after remembering what he asked for him. "Mr Hino, if Marzzi makes it to either side, I'll make sure he's okay, and visit him and report back to you on how he is doing. I don't see why if you and Kaku allowed it, he couldn't even stay down here with you guys to grow up... Though I know of this Angel Ningen, hopefully still alive who works with mechanics, and might like the young protégé to teach his knowledge to." Sky didn't want him to be cast aside, and would make sure on that promise. When she returned with Havok, and noticed Kaku go for his weapon, Sky was grateful that Blye intervened, but still had something to say on the matter herself. Walking over to Kaku, she gestured him down to her level before giving him a hard hate filled stare, and whispered so only he could hear. "You may have disowned me and Art as your family, but that doesn't mean I have to give up Havok as an older brother because you have issues with the fact he helped us and we decided to pay that back by sticking by him. Dare lay a finger on him, and you not only sever any chance on making things right between you and me, but I'll make sure Art grows up knowing what you said, how you felt... That's a promise." Sky didn't say anymore, instead moving back over to Havok and hugging him and Art close, content to now just sit and listen to what everyone else had to say.

Hane didn't seemed to respond. Perhaps he was too flabbergasted by the young lady's vocabulary, or too respectful of the fact that, whilst this Marzzi had taught Sky rude words, he had also sadly fallen and had many a friend around here who mourned him. So the guard kept quiet, his usual really, only mumbling every now and then. The King glanced to Hino, nodding to Sky's statement. "Ningen in out there somewhere. He didn't want to take part in the war, just continue building. I know my brother is out there, and if Marzzi makes it, Ningen will do everything he can to care for your friend, of course, Marzzi can be raised wherever it's deemed best. He'll be a part of my people, and I only want the best for them." Kakushin answered, glancing over to his daughter. Kakushin paid attention to Sky mostly, keeping an ear out to her conversations, and his eyes followed her as she and Art ran to someone else. It was the Kyuban boy, the one who'd helped defeat Banto, but, Kaku's eyes still watched him carefully. He was helpful, and Kakushin didn't consider this Havok a threat, but... The last Kyuban Kakushin saw was his brother, after Ikiru had been killed. His body, it was corrupted beyond repair, turned monstrous and savage. Kakushin also heard how Ikiru had killed so many, lost all aspect of himself, and had been put down by mercy. Kaku's face was void of emotion, but his green eyes looked pained. He could just picture it now, how one day, Sky's friend could lose himself, return to Kyuban instincts. She'd have to make a choice that day, and Kakushin didn't want Sky to have to deal with such a thing. Honestly, Kaku's mind was conflicted, voices muffled as he thought on that, and his hand instinctively rose to his sword. All he could see was Ikiru, then this Havok, how the latter could one day become the first. He thought on how it would crush his children, and how Kakushin wouldn't let that happen. Blye's sudden voice woke Kaku up, the King blinked, and listened carefully. Blye seemed to read minds, or perhaps predict Kaku's future actions. Either way, the wise young man's words perfectly calmed Kakushin. He reassured the King that this Havok meant no harm to his children, and Kakushin took that to mean now, and in the future. Kaku nodded slowly, before planning to move on. Sky then gestured to him, and catching a look of her glare, the parent winced a little, before crouching down. He couldn't find words to reply, Kaku's eyes only widened, Sky's hateful words burning into his ear. Kakushin could remember what he said, and knowing Sky heard it clear, and believe Kaku's intentions at that time to be his own, not from the evil infused into him, made the King's heart sink. "I never wanted to hurt you," Kakushin whispered back, finally, "if you love him that much, I won't hurt him either." So long as he doesn't hurt you, Kakushin thought to himself, before getting up, giving a slight glance to Hane and the others, before pressing on with them.

Hino remained quiet throughout most, glad that Havok was alright and well, before he turned to the others over the Marzzi issue. "Thank you, that's all I can ask." When it seemed as if Sky had something to add to the matter, Hino wasn't afraid to admit to tearing up a little at her words, it seemed so surreal that after all the time he had them imprisoned, she was still as kind and bright as ever, and Hino couldn't be more thankful. Crouching to Sky's level, Hino took her hands and gave a smile. "Thank you, after all we have done, I cannot be more grateful for your support. Know if you ever need our help, we are there." He wouldn't make such a promise to the others, but he could make an exception for these children they did so wrong by, if only as start to make it up to them. Letting the last conversations dry out, Hino looked back to Blye. "Here, let me take you to Jasper, I need to check on my brother anyhow, and after we shall go wherever you need to help with your quest to become King, you have out help." Leading him down the now repaired corridors, Hino took all into one of the lower level healing rooms, it was the least damaged, and to where they put Jasper and worked on him to help. "Any changes?" Hino couldn't bare to lose another friend, not after Marzzi. And was upset when the healer shook her head, he began preparing himself for the worst. But he did look to Kaku to explain something. "I'm not sure if you know Kaku, but the council used him, his powers, and Jasper hated all of this since the beginning, but they threatened him with something, and I know it was a hard thing to lose. Hence why Minato is now burned down, he didn't do what he needed to. I suspect he either had a choice between Nanari, his mother, or someone else. And hated both choices." Hino didn't know the whole story, but he knew Jasper and how he thinks, knew what the Council had planned, and came up with his own assumption, and he needed Kaku to understand.
