Takai's and Nathan's Mission: Rep Frey D. Sadoko

^Takai would be standing in an open area of the Darkness Lands his armor would slightly glimmer in the dark from the gray flames. Furiko would already be in her weapon form and strapped to his wrist with her crystal hovering in front of Takai keeping and eye on the energies in the surrounding area. Takai and Furiko would stand and wait for Nathan to appear so they could get this mission started.^

*Nathan would soon arrive after accepting the mission. Yumari already in her ninja blade form. H hadn't used her in a while and decided to get her some souls as an apology for neglecting her. When he saw takai at first he didn't recognize him but the scent was still the same. seems as though Nathan wasent the only one going through changes.*

"Haven't seen you in a while."

^Takai would turn and would notice Nathan and would notice his changes in appearance and power.^

Takai- Hmmm it had been a while Nathan-kun so are you ready I plane to get a large amount of souls and maybe a puppet or two.

^Takai would say this and he would then whip Furiko's crystal in the air and it would begin to glow meaning her dowsing ability was activated allowing her to be able feel the energies around the area. Furiko's crystal would the point in a direction which is where she felt a strong energy source and Takai would wait for Nathan to say he's ready.^

As the both of them were idly chatting, what they wouldn't notice is that a low frequency sound was humming about. It seemed to signal something, but since it was so low, they shouldn't be able to consciously hear it. Not to mention, they were talking, as well, so that made it even less noticeable.

"Well good cause I pl--" *Although low to the point where normal beings couldn't hear this frequency it was loud in clear to nathan's ears. Was something approaching them or letting them know that something was up with the area whatever the case was nathan was ready.*

"Be on the lookout takai. we may have company soon."

Takai- Understood Nathan-kun

^Takai would walk toward the direction of the energy Furiko's crystal could feel although Takai would motion for Nathan to fallow the crystal in front of Takai since he was picking up something with his hearing.^

In the depths of the darkness, emerged a being from the ground. She was tall, had hair that covered her eyes, wore a striped shirt and jeans with chains on them, and had long, demonic claws. This was Frey D. Sadoko.

"... I see you've heard my little song, bitches..."

She flexed her claws, licking blood off of one of them.

"... I'm the serial killer of your nightmares... And you're next on my list..."

"Well....thanks for making it easier to find you."

*Nathan would pick up yumari who was in her ninja blade form and twirled her through his gingers before griping the handle tightly. he was activating his soul perception as well as syncing his wavelength with yumari.*

Takai- Well if you don't mind we will be taking your soul.

^Takai would say this and he would reel in Furiko's crystal back into its holster and his arm would glow with a large amount of soul energy. From being in weapon form since this started Takai and Furiko where already linked mind and soul. Takai would stand his ground and wait for Frey D. Sadoko to make the first move although while waiting from under her would erupt a large amount of black poison that would cause he to go blind if she was touched by it.^

Sadoko smirked, already gone with the darkness once they even thought of attacking her. From the darkness all around them would come numerous claws, each surrounding them.

"Nine Inch Nails!"

The claws extended to great proportions, hoping to rend the both of them to pieces and claw out their souls.

((Do you know how hard it is not to say sadako instead of her name))

*Nathan and yumari had finally synced once the claws came towards them, in a rotation of his foot he began to rotate his body at high velocity blocking the slashes that came his way with yumari as he blocked one and held it together as his free hand began to glow a goldish color.

"Soul Purge." *With his free hand he unleashed a powerful purge of his wavelength towards the claws that spread outward hoping to hit 1 of them. If it succeed then through his pride soul he wouldnt be able to use her dark chakras. This came at hyper sonic speeds as he continued to block as well*

^With the help of Furiko's tracking ability she would be able to fallow Frey D. Sadoko movements which would be told to Takai via mental talk. With Frey D. Sadoko movements known Takai would move out of the way of the slash so it would only slash though his midsection leaving a large cutting gape in his side. Although right after words his cut section would simply leek out a large amount of poison reconnecting together looking as if nothing happened. This would be because Takai was in his Poison Body form making him mostly completely immune to physical attack such as the ones from Frey D. Sadoko. Not only that but from slashing Takai in his Poison Body form Frey D. Sadoko now has her hand covered in Takai's poison which would cause her arm on the side which Frey D. Sadoko tried to slash Takai with would go completely numb and would not moved. With Nathan attacking the poison should help him have a better chance of hitting Frey D. Sadoko but just in case Takai would point Furiko's crystal toward Nathan and Frey D. Sadoko before firing the crystal which would glow and resonate connecting with Nathan's soul. Nathan would then begin to hear a song which was Furiko's Finale song which would increase all of Nathan's and Takai's abilities temporarily. This would mean Sadoko would be being attack at a greater speed and power in a split second.^

The very moment Nathan and Sadoko made physical contact, even though he used his Soul Purge technique, it didn't affect her, for some reason. This is because she was already gone. She was inside of his head... She had now forced him to fall asleep... But standing up. (Sound familiar?)

She was also indeed in Takai's head, too, because even though he was in his Poison Body form, he still got touched. And now, she was in his head, too, forcing him to fall asleep. And because Furiko was in a mind link with him, she would be asleep as well... and Yumari, too, since Nathan was in Soul Resonance. And so, all of them were instantly forced into slumber... All of them were separated.. And all of them would be fighting Sadoko in their dreams alone without each other... Isolated. It was too good to be true.

She didn't say anything about this, but was going to let them believe that they were still awake... Only, they would be completely alone. Confused. Delicious looking... And Sadoko herself? Nowhere to be found...

((DAMN YOU AND YOUR INSANE CHARACTERS))

*Nathan would look around and find out that no one would be with him, not even his partner yumari. Something was vaguely familiar with this whole scenario but he didst know why. He looked around in nothing but the darkness of the lands. Something was off here, its sorta like a genjutsu but not at the same time it almost as if he was dreaming. Now remembering the description of the mission it was all too clear. This was a dream it was the same thing that friday had did to him during there battle but this time it wold be different. He would look down at his two rings and set one of them ablaze. this would be the rain flame as he would use its powers to calm the powers of Sadoko to the point where he can break out of it with his own mind. now looking around at his team there were in the same predicament that he was in. he went to yumari's body and set her ablaze with the rain flame as well causing the same thing to happen as the two of them were free. He then went and try to do the same thing with taki hopefully not being interrupted by Sadoko while he did this.

^While Takai was unable to tell he was put to sleep Furiko would be walking around the dream area and he would close her eye and use her soul perception ability and she would be able to tell the she was trapped within their own minds. Furiko would simply smile as she would be thinking that Takai had no idea what was happening as her body would begin to glow inside her mind and outside in reality. From inside he mind and outside as if sleep talking Furiko would begin to sing her Soul Etude which would echo around the area removing any and all status ailments that plague Takai, herself, Nathan, and Yumari just in case Nathan's ability would not work. This would wake everyone up and would keep it that way for now as Furiko would keep singing until she felt like changing the song. Takai would wake up thanks to Furiko and Nathan and would quickly stand up as Furiko would turn back into her weapon form strapping to his wrist. Takai would then aim Furiko and would fire he crystal which would glow meaning that Furiko's dowsing ability was active meaning she was locked on to Sadoko trying to hit her. The crystal would then shatter into multiple crystal's that would rocket toward Sadoko all at once from multiple directions trying to stab and grab her in place.^

(hahaha, Nathan made me laugh. Now to crush your dreams.)

Unfortunately for Nathan, using the Rain Flame in his own dream was absolutely useless. This is because he heard the tape that Sadoko played that allowed her complete control of his dreams... As if she were his dreams. The only problem is that if he used his rain flame on his own mind, he'd just do bad things to his mind. Not only that, in a realm where Sadoko ruled... The flame couldn't save him. But, just to be a bitch, she'd allow him to think he was free because it's just plain funny. This was her domain, but inside of his domain, therefore making her control everything that went on. Fuuun~.

Now, for Takai... Because he and Furiko were locked in their dreams by Sadoko, there was no way to link their bodies with their minds at this moment, and as such, she wouldn't be able to initiate a Soul Etude. They were all trapped indefinitely and separately until they could get rid of Sadoko from their minds. There was no way out of it... There was only despair waiting for them all. Nathan's flame was useless because it had no power in the dream, Takai's weapon couldn't sing while being locked in the dream... And Takai and Nathan's weapon couldn't do much to even try, so it wasn't even a good idea to waste their time. From everywhere in their dreams, they heard this voice;

"Are you scared..? Do the little pussies want to go back home...? Silly shit... All of you are on silly shit... I'll rip your souls out without you even having to wake up!"

((sorry for the wait))

*Nathan sensed his power wasent doing anything and assumed that she had powers that were greater then the witching Friday. He needed a way for him to get to yumari. Thats when he heard what she said about calling them pussies. it ticked him off when people hide in the shadows and shit of that nature.*

"Whose the bitch hiding out, You want my soul you have to fight me for it!" *The resolve allowed a Renaissance of Souls between him and his partner this allowed both dreams to connect and thus yumari would appear next to him already in her ninja blade form. His soul began to expand as a large dome of soul energy form into that of wolf's head. Hopefully this provoked her to the point where she came out*

^After a few minutes Takai would finally figure out his was trapped within his own mind alone via Sadoko's ability. Takai would sign and would float in a meditation position since he was in his mind he could do this and would begin to think about what to do. Takai would then begin to hear Sadoko's voice but would not react since he was not the kinda person to become upset from just words but Takai already knew if Nathan was already hearing this he would be pissed. Takai's body from inside his mind would then begin to glow green and outside his body would begin to due the same as the his mental plain would begin to turn green and mist would fill the area.^

Takai- Well you won't be getting my soul and also thanks for making this easy for me to get to you Sadoko being in my mind gives me and you a mental and slight soul link. Unlike others who have calming or crazy souls I have what you would call a Poison Soul so as long as you are in my mind you area slowly poisoning your body until you can't move, and unlike the others you are not immune to my poisonous soul.

^As Takai said this from his mind would release a wave of green cracks which would represent Takai's poison filled soul infecting not only his mind but the minds of Nathan, Furiko, and Yumari since they where linked though Sadoko's ability within her own mind. Although they would not be affected since all of them where made immune to Takai's poison quite sometime ago meaning no matter which mind Sadoko was in she would be slowly being infecting with Takai's poison soul which would poison he until she could no longer move or use he energy properly.^

(.. Hmmm... Time to crush your dreams AGAIN.)

Though Soul Resonance was probably possible in this state, it was not effective as well as it would be because of the fact that Sadoko was infecting both Nathan and Yumari's mind at once.. Thus, if they combined their souls and minds, Sadoko would only have double her own power inside of Nathan and Yumari's minds at once, thus making her have quadruple her original power. Think about it, it makes sense.

As for Takai.. Because HE had in fact, heard the humming, even though he did not notice, he was in the same boat Nathan was in. Even though his soul could most likely poison her... She was still in his mind. She was technically, in a sense, one with it, but separate from it. Just like she was with Nathan's, Yumari's and Furiko's. Thus, they'd only be hurting themselves or not hurting her if they tried anything like that... She was immune only because Takai was immune, or because the others were immune.

Now, she spake until Nathan "Keheheheh.. I'm not hiding... I've been here the entire time... You just can't see me. You're not looking hard enough... Pussy." Creeping from behind Nathan, there was a claw coming from the darkness. "... Maybe instead of trying to take me out of your minds with some pussy trick..." A claw would creep behind Takai... "... Maybe you all should just LIE DOWN AND DIE!!" Claws would be shooting at all 4 of them from behind, trying to rip their 'souls' out from their backs. Whatever happened to their dream body would happen to their real ones, in a sense...

*Nathan didn't care that her power had increased he got yumari and that all that he needed. He parried the claw and step back some as he watched the claw sink in back to the darkness. The words that she said kept getting to him. 'Not looking hard enough'. That's when it came to him, he closed his eyes and he began to focus. gray light could be seen in the darkness. It had the form of a soul, to be exact it was hers/him. Nathan had found it at last as he walked towards the sword yumari transforming into her chain scythe in the process.*

*He immediately took off towards the direction of the soul yumari being drenched in soul energy, he was going to combine the powers of his soul purge into the blades of yumari and aimed to slice her down the middle as he aimed multiple slashes of his wavelength towards the soul in attempts to pierce it. *

Takai

^As the claws moved toward Takai he would side step the slash avoiding it with little effort because in the beginning when Sadoko simply slashed though Takai's poison body it left traces of poison on her claws which Takai could since. Takai would the move back and would clench his fist and would send a large wave of soul energy toward Sadoko which was mixed with black poison that could cause Sadoko to become blind this energy could affect everyone even Takai himself so Sadoko would be affected if hit and even if everyone was blinded they all had ways to see with out there eyes.^

Furiko

^Furiko would jump high in the air out of the way of Sadoko claws being able to feel her energy with her Soul Perception. Furiko would the release a wave of crystals that would surge with a large amount of soul energy and would move at blinding speeds. Although these crystals where unique because they where locked on Sadoko's energy which ment they would fallow them though the mind of everyone else.^

All of the Sadoko's simultaneously converged with the shadows, easily avoiding all of the attacks.

"You all have forgotten... I'm everywhere in your dreams. Give up, bitches!"

Her claws appeared first from below each of them; trying to trip up Nathan, claw off Takai's feet and just plain grab Furiko. But then suddenly afterward, more claws from the top coming down fast. And then, without warning, in front of all of them. It would be the worst for Nathan, since he was running. For Takai's special case, her nails would try to trap him in a cage-like fashion first, then slice through him completely.

*Nathan with his blades still soul energy would spin in mid air causing the chains to slice and dice the claws in the surrounding area as he jumped back towards the middle of the darkness in his mind.*

"Maybe I can level the playing field."

*With that nathan began to focus, he was going to bring his inner world into his mind, even though she has control of his dreams and mind there was no way she would be able to manipulate a different realm that's completely different from the soul stuff. So now, nathan would be in his inner world, the flourish of grass within the area, the large cliff that seemed to be the pathway towards the moon itself. With this change of scenery there would be no place to hide but just encase his soul perception was still active and his eyes still closed. Who knows maybe this could make nathan wake up.*

Furiko

^Furiko would still be able to feel Sadoko with her soul perception and would once again be able to feel the grab coming toward her. Furiko would seem to let Sadoko grab her but th minute she is touched by Sadoko Furiko would disappear moving a fast speeds leaving behind a crystal which Furiko shot out of her body in the way of Sadoko's hand. This crystal however would not explode but would glow bright burnnig into Sadoko's hand as threds made of soul energy would wrapp around her arm. This crystal would begin to badly burn Sadoko's arm constanly sending surges of soul energy though her arm which would run up to her body. Furiko would then reappear on the ground and would send a wave of crystals toward Sadoko.


Takai

^As the cage of claws formed around Takai he would simply turn into poison and would slither around the claws like a liquide stream out of harms way, Takai would then turn back to human apperance and would begin to feel the energies of the others fighting and would begin to wonder how to help. Takai would then think of something as he would glow with soul energy which would once again infect the souls of everyone which would inculde Sadoko. Although as soon as he did this Takai would then take of his gas mask and a large amount of black smoke would come out of his mouth. Takai would then begin to cough because unknown to everyone who knew Takai from his constant training with poison Takai himself is now unable to breath normal air which is his poison. So now that Takai was sending his soul energy though everyone with out his mask everyone as well Sadoko would begin to become weak and feel like the could not breath although Takai knew unlike Sadoko the others could could power themselves up to over come the affect of Takai.^

Though it was true that Sadoko probably just couldn't control the scenery, she could control what went on in the scenery. Therefore, Nathan's scenery change wasn't all that helpful... Well, maybe to himself, but overall, it just left Sadoko in control still. His inner world was still in his mind. It didn't matter where it was; mind or soul. So long as Nathan already heard the noise, he was controlled.

As for Furiko, Sadoko's hand was in severe pain, but was retracted back into the shadows. Sadoko would then emerge from the shadows and smile grimly...

As for Takai, because this was a dream, she could in fact, make him breath without his mask if she wanted to. Only because of the fact she had control over what went on in the dreams....

Once she had handled all of the problems, rings appeared between herself and her opponents... Large, white rings surrounded by darkness... Something was about to happen.
