| Later that night~~~ *found out that Ninako already ate and couldnt find Kagene, so she gave up and walked back into the kitchen to find Marisa washing dishes, Vincent washing the counters, and Kagami and Jack mopping the floor. They notice Yan in the room and wave.* Jack: "Ossu! Welcome back." Kagami: "We wanted to repay you for the meal and started cleaning up." *stands in the same spot, a little surprised* "...Sokka." *Everyone turns around to look at her in shock. Marisa walks over to Yan and looks back at Vincent.* Marisa: "Hey, you all said she was mute." Vincent: "We thought she was." Marisa: *looks back to Yan and smiles* "Well anyways, we havent introduced ourselves yet. My name is Marisa. The one washing the counters is Vincent, the ones mopping the floors are Jack and Kagami. Whats your name?" "...Yan. I dont talk much..." Jack: "Ah, its all good. Its better than talking too much." Kagami: "Kind of like youre doing right now?" Jack: *rubs the back of his head in embarrassment* "Eheheh, sorry. It just feels a little weird talking to a monster." Vincent:" By the way, judging by your ears and tail from earlier Id say youre a type of fox demon. You wouldnt happen to be a kitsune, would you?" *stares dumbfounded* "How did you guess?" Vincent: "The proportions are correct, though I could be wrong since I havent seen any of your powers yet. So I wasnt wrong?" "No... You guessed right." Jack: "Sugee. A real kitsune. Can you manipulate fire and illusions like the legends say? Are you like a billion years old? Can you shapeshift?" "Um..." Crap. the master made me promise not to tell them anything... "...That is--" Marisa: "Ive been wondering this for a while, but what's that tatoo on your foot?" *Yan's eyes widen and she immediately looks down to see her illusion still broken by the master. Quickly she repairs illusion and the crest dissappears. She looks back up at Marisa.* "What tatoo?" Marisa: *looks again* "Huh. That's strange; I thought for sure that you had a tatoo on your foot that seemed like Id seen it somewhere else before... Oh well! Back to cleaning!!!" *everybody goes back to cleaning and Yan sits down while in deep thought* This is going to be harder than I thought. I need to be more careful. And the master isnt making it easy. Jerk... |

 "'Up is down'? Well thats maddeningly unhelpful."- Captain Jack Sparrow |
| *floating down the stairs deep in thought* "Hmmm, the floor looks dry now . . . but I just had to take precautions . . . still why would my Lord want me to do such a task? It`s actually pretty easy . . . but hard to do at the same time . . ." *enters the kitchen, and sees the people cleaning . . . looks at the table and sees Yan deeply thinking*` "Ehh? They`re cleaning? . . . now I`ve seen everything ahaha" *Kagene decides to go invisible and takes steps towards the table . . . once arriving he whispers words that the humans cannot hear* "Hey there Yan. How`re things going? Oh yeah, came to remind you that I ate the udon you left at my Lord`s room, he didn`t seem hungry, and the food was pretty good!" «--- is a ghost (cannot tell the difference between warm/cool food *He looks at the other side of the kitchen, at the part that hasn`t been cleaned yet and sees an empty pocky box on the floor* " . . . " Jack: Hey did the room suddently become colder? Kagami: Come to think of it, it has . . . what happening? *The pocky container then floats and is thrown directly at one of the humans* Vincent: Wha-wh-what THE!? *right before it hits Vincent, the container goes through a portal and it dissappears . . another portal opens and drops it in the garbage can* Jack: what just happened? Marisa: Hey, show yourself! *after hearing this, the rest of the humans show surprised reactions at how Marisa just randomly yelled . . . Kagene decides to appear* "Wow, your senses are becoming sharper by the minute . . . really, you didn't have to yell, from seeing your reactions I can tell that none of you are the culprits, so I cancelled the action before anything happened" *Vincent takes a step forward and points at Kagene* Vincent: You . . what ar- "are you planning? . . If your going to say that again then theres no point in greetings this time . . . I`ve actually come here to do some work this time and to not play around . . ." Kagami: What do you mean by that? It looked like you were playing around a little while ago . . " . . . well then, aside from that, I have to do what I was asked to do. So, you . . if you may come with me again . . . someone asked me to get you" *Kagene points at Marisa . . Then Jack reacts and try to get in Kagene`s way* "getting in my way I see . . . well then . ." *Kagene puts his right hand in his pocket . . . little do they know is that right now he opened a portal inside his pocket, which the other end directly leads to a human heart, he slowly starts to squeeze* Jack: gahh, ugh... *kneels* " . . . truth be told, I dislike such a method . . . I`ve only used this move once in my entire 577 years of living (in fact, I didn`t even need to put my hand in my pocket) . . . if you understand, please get out of my way and let me continue what I was going to do, otherwise it`ll start to hurt" *Marisa takes a step forward* Marisa: St-stop this! . . . fine I`ll go with you . . "I expected nothing less . . (wait, I heard these words somewhere before . . ), that was the correct move on your part" *Kagene releases his grip on Jack`s heart and removes his hand from his pocket. Both begin to depart . . . Kagene open a portal to the Lord`s room* "Really I have to do this, wouldn`t want to risk you slipping . . right? Besides, it`s faster!" Jack: *slowly starts to rise* yo-you monster! *Kagene pauses and turns around* "Your right . . in a way, I am a monster! I do admit it, but I dare you to look me straight in the eye and say it more clearly!" *Feeling Kagene`s surge in excitement, and seeing a somewhat sad look on Marisa`s face, he refrains from saying any further* "Good choice . . you guys remember what I told you earlier about how everyone here is different? You had first hand experience that each of us residents differ in personalities . . . why don`t you try using this? I mean . . . this game is going to be boring, if it`s left one sided like it is right now . . ." Vincent: What do you mean by that!? "I`ll let you guys find that out yourself . . ." *Kagene and Marisa step into the portal . . . once inside the portal dissappears, a voice resonates within the kitchen as an after effect* "Oh yeah, forgot to say thanks for cleaning the kitchen! We should get to know each other one time! Cya again soon!" *At the other side of the portal nearing the Lord`s room" Marisa: Brother... why did you do that? "The friendly attitude? That`s because they seem to be improving . . . really, I bet they`ll like beings such as us much better once they get to know us. . (I mean, they really don`t have long to live anyways . .)" Marisa: No . . . I meant that harsh attitude before ` *Kagene`s smirk slowly fades, and he stops right at the door before opening it* "Trust me, if I had not done things the way I did, those humans would have went through more of a hellish experience than what I gave them" *While saying that, Kagene sternly looks at the door* *Marisa looks down. . . Kagene puts on his usual smile then slowly opens the door leading to Lord`s room, he`s about to enter with his usual casual talk but before he could even announce his entrace, he`s interrupted* "Hmmm, Kagene . . I see you`ve already fulfilled your task. You may enter!" |

| *Both Marisa and Kagene enter the Lord's room and commence thier dialogue* "Ahh, Kagene I see you've brought your sister just like I asked" " . . . yeah I did, why do you need her anyways . .?" *Seeing Kagene's change in attitude, Marisa just stands there quietly, thinking* (That's wierd, isn't nii-chan usually smiling? why is it that he's like this now? He's probably hiding something from that guy over there . . .) *Seeing Marisa standing there quietly, the Lord then speaks to her* "Hmmm, haven't seen you in a long time. your begining to look just like 'her' "Umm . . . who? " . . . my Lord, I think this is not the right time to bring back such things . . ." "Hmm . . on the contrary. Right now would be the best time to bring such topics up. Surely you and your 577 years of living should have given you at least that much knowledge!" *After hearing what the Lord says, Marisa stares at Kagene in shock* "Di-did he just say what I thought I heard!? Your 577 years old? "Yes I am . . ." "Then how are we siblings?" " . . . . ." *Seeing as Kagene refuses to answer, the Lord speaks up* "Your mother was a unique human being. Even though she was human, she was able to live a long life. She was blessed by the supernatural from the day of her birth. During this time, she gave birth to the two of you. Both your and your brother are 560 years apart." "Wh-wh-what!? No way, this can't be true!? Then why do we look about the same age . . . *Kagene replies reluctantly* " . . . it's true . . . we half ghosts live for an eternity . . . I was frozen at the age of 18 for my entire life . . . half ghosts grow normally until they reach the late teens, then after so, their body will cease to age and thier powers fully manifest" "N-no way . . . you mean to tell me that I'm about to go through that? "Yes you are . . . or should I say, you already have . . . do you remember how I was several years ago? Have you ever wondered why father, mother and myself always looked the same ever since you were born?" *With Marisa still in shock, the Lord then starts to speak* "Hmm Kagene, seems like I finally got you to tell her huh? This should be really hard on the both of you, well at least I brought this to the clear." *The Lord tries to hold back his laughter* *Kagene's aura starts to go maniacal, to an extent that he hasn't reached before . . . his hair and skin becomes snow white, his usual trademark smirk then become a hysterical demented smile* "Hahaha, that power, it resembles your father's! I never knew that you that kind of strength!" Too bad that your father isn't here to see this, he'd be proud! " . . . . HmMhMmMmHmMmM . . . HaAhAaHaHaHaAhAhAaHa! Do YoU kNoW hOw HoW lOnG I HaD tO kEeP tHiS a SeCrEt fRoM MArIsA!? yOu ShAtTeReD hEr eMoTiOnAl CoNsCiEnCe . .

I'lL hAvE fUn CuTtInG yOu uP ^^" *Taking out his katana from a portal, Kagene rushes directly to the Lord while invisible, then performs a slash . . the Lord evades the slash and sends a burst towards Kagene at point blank . . . Kagene retaliates by opening a portal in front of himself to abosrb the burst, then opens another portal behind the Lord which releases the burst back at him . . . the Lord takes his own hit, some blood starts spilling, yet the Lord seems unphazed. Kagene laughs maniacally at the sight of blood now splattering around himself. The Lord quickly regenerates as Kagene licks the blood of his fingers* "Impressive! Your skills improved since the last time! Your fighting style is definently the same as his!" "hIs!? I dOn'T kNoW wHaT yOu MeAn By ThAt AhAaHaHaAhA, bUt ThIs Is OnLy JuSt ThE bEgInNiNg~~" *Kagene thrusts his fist in a portal directly connected to the Lord's heart . . . the Lord counters by severly raising his aura and focusing it on his own heart . . . Kagene pulls back his arm, only to see that it's inexistent . . . it quickly regenerates* "OoOh, ThAt KiNdA hUrTs . . . ToO bAd It'S aLl GoNe By NoW~~ i WaNnA sEe MoRe BlOoD~~~" "I'll admit, you came close the last time you time you fought me . . . but do you honestly think that same trick would work twice!? *From hearing the Lord's small dialogue, Marisa realizes something, then rushes in between the two* "STOP THIS!! *her scream can be heard around the mansion* " AaHaHaAhAa . . . MaRiSa? WhY dO yOu StOp Us? CaN't YoU sEe We'Re HaViNg FuN!" *The Lord smirks* "Brother, stop this pointless battle, it's going nowhere . . . besides I have a feeling that he did this for my own good . . . *with his hysterical demented smile still on his face, and blood all over his clothing, Kagene tries his best to respond normally* " . . . HaAhAaHaHa . . I dOn'T kNoOoOw WhAaAaT yOoUuUr TaAaLkInG aBoOoOuT~~" *Before Marisa can reply and tells Kagene what she knows, the Lord interrupts her* "It's as she says. All along I did this so that she can finally move on" *Hearing this, Kagene reverts back to his normal self . . . then puts on his usual smirk* "Haha okay okay I get it! If Marisa is okay with what happened, then I don't a see a point of continuing . . . . that's in the past!" *A glint goes through on Kagene's left eye as a blue flame erupts from it* "But, then again. I'm on to you, and whatever your planning" "Hmph, the way you can smile even while threatening others . . . I see you got that from your mother. ." *ignoring that remark, Kagene leaves the room to continue with his usual antics . . . to him, nothing even happened in that room. Marisa is about to leave . . .* *Still shocked by now knowing the truth, as well as seeing a side of her brother that she's never even imagined, Marisa hesitantly speaks while looking at the floor* " . . . Well if you'll excuse me . . . I'm going back to my friends . . ." "Wait right there! " . . . . ." "So I guess you've found out right? From here on, do not tell anyone within this mansion . . . you may leave" *Marisa walks to the door and slowly opens it, taking one step out of the room* "Those friends your returning to . . . you should cherish these moments with them" *Marisa exits the room, while walking alone in the unfamiliar hallways thinking* "I don't even know where to go in here . . I'm lost, and brother left on his own again . . . it kinda feels like 'that' time . . ." |

| *Yumi stops playintg the piano and walks out if the room* *while walking down the hallway feels sleepy* *walks into a room that Yumi had never seen before* "i guess that i can take a little nap here" *thinks to self* "now that i think about it the human never had met me before...oh well i can care less" *yawns while curling up to go to sleep* "oh i forgot to close the door...*pauses and thinks about it* it doesnt really matters" |
| *walking down the hallways of the upper floors with a hand on his head* "Geez . . I can't believe I actually lost it . . . not only does my Lord now know about this unfortunate side . . but Marisa as well . . . just what does my Lord plan to do with that . ." *while walking he encounters the humans who also happen to be on the same floor, they're approaching Kagene somewhat cautiously lightly armed. Kagene sees this, then smirks at their attempt* " . . .ahahaha, what the heck are you kids doing at this time of night? Not only do you have weapons . . . but your also walking in the wrong hallway." "we were told that in order to escape this place, all we had to do was to defeat your master . . " *Vincent declares to Kagene trying to be brave* Person F: Yeah . . we also heard Marisa's scream coming from this direction . . "Oh really!? In all actually, you guys don't even stand a chance ahaha. Geez, I can even sleep right in front you and all your attacks won't do any harm to me whether I choose to become transparent or not" *realizing something is missing, and still having a grudge on Kagene he interrupts* "Hey you! Where's Marisa!?" "Oh her? I believe i left the room before she did, so i wouldn't know hmmhmm" *Jack swings kitchen knife towards Kagene, but this time he lands a hit* "TELL ME WHERE SHE IS, OR I'LL SERIOUSLY HURT YOU!" "well well, so I let you hit me, and now your all high a mighty?" *Kagene says this as he instantly regenerates and licks the blood of his hand* Person G: "Wh-what the!? No way!? Before we can't even hit him, and now that we do . . he instantly recovers?" "Tsk tsk tsk, that's why I said, you can't even dream of hurting me, even if I slept right of you . . . you know . . . I'll give you two clues, since you guys are playing this game . . . Marisa, the last time I've seen her was in my Lord's room a few moments ago . . . his room is down this very hallway" *shocked reactions surface on the humans faces* "Wha-what!?" "Let me finish . . . I assure sure she's not hurt though ahaha . . . " *somewhat relieved for the news, then calms down* "In that case, we'll just go rescue her! *He firmly holds onto his weapon as he speaks* "TcH, wHaT fOoLs YoU hUmAnS aRe . . " *Kagami hears a terrifying voice coming from Kagene, then tries to ask calmy* " . . . umm, did you just say something?" "Haha, nah. . that must be your imagination . . I'll tell you this though, in this place you cannot hope to even see the master unless you prove yourselves to the residents here" "yeah . . . we've been told that before . . . but don't you mean to kill the 6 of you? "Hahaha, aren't you guys getting a little ahead of yourself!? Kill!? . . . do you honestly think you guys can pull off such a thing? Beside . . Kill, may be a little too overboard . . some residents here may have specific qualifications or set rules in order to test your worth (although nobody has ever passed my requirements ^^)" "GRRR, TELL US THE ANSWER ALREADY!! "Your a little too dramatic aren't ya. . do you think I'd actually tell you such a thing? This is a game, and you are the pieces moving around the board, it's up to your own decisions with what you want to do . . . . and with that in mind, I'm leaving for the time being . . ." *Kagene falls through the floor as his exit, leaving the humans confused once again* "Damn, that guy is just annoying! Hey comes and goes and never gives us direct answers . . . he's playing around with us!" "Jack, think of it logically . . . would you rat out your own comrades in such a state? Even the monsters are treating us in a somewhat odd manner . . . at least they helped us in some ways" " . . . . . . ." "Besides, from the way he spoke earlier, he must be telling the truth that Marisa is not in trouble . . . even if we indeed heard her scream earlier, that doesn't mean she necessarily hurt" "Yes Kagami . . your right on that point . . . but that also means that right now we're in more danger than she is . . . for all we know, we could be the targets . . . " . . . so we just have to prepare for the worst then? . . . hey Alex, you listening? You've been following us for quite a while, yet your always so calm . . why is that? . ." ~~HAPPENING AT THE SAME TIME~~ *Marisa quietly walks the upper floor hallways in thought* "This place . . for some strange reason, it kind of feels like I've been here before . . . why is that . ." *She spots an open door in the hallway, and out of inherited curiosity, she decides to check things out . . . looking in the door she someone sleeping* "umm . . . could this be another resident of this mansion? . . . I really don't know what to do, and for some reason I feel safer staying here than in those hallways . . ." *She decides to take a seat on the opposite side of the room of the person sleeping and starts thinking out loud of all that's happened hoping that nobody hears her* "turns out all these things I've been feeling lately were because of that . . it seems like brother didn't want me to know for some reason . . . and that man he calls 'my Lord' . . . Kagene . . how can you forget . .." |

| *was sleeping soundly, until someone opened the door to her room* This room was supposed to be hidden by illusion. Not even the master can see it. Who saw through it? *cracks one eye open and sees Marisa sitting on the opposite side of the room* Ah, Kagene's sister. *immediately goes back to sleep* Marisa: *gets up and slowly walks toward Yan's hoshi no tama sitting on the dresser, entranced by it* "Nostalgic..." *touches the hoshi no tama and recieves a flashback* "Our parents are busy talking. Wanna go outside and play?" "Okay!" "Im coming along then. If you get hurt, Dad will somehow find a way to kill me." "Hai~ Kage oniitan!" ~~~ *Marisa bounces a ball back toward the person who passed it to her. The person's face is out of focus, yet she can tell the both of them are smiling while enjoying their little game* *hoshi no tama glows, then fades.* *eyes shoot open. Rushes over to Marisa* "Wh-what are you doing?!" *the now faded hoshi no tama flies toward Yan and phases into her chest. eyes widen* Marisa: *still doesnt know whats going on* "What was that?" "My hoshi no tama. And you just activated it." Marisa: Hoshi no tama... It sounds so familiar. "How did it activate? You mean the glowing and fading?" "That's not supposed to happen unless youv'e activated it before." *drops to knees* Marisa: *crouches down* "Im sorry. What does it mean?" Vincent: "It means that your'e now her master. She has to be your bodyguard and follow your orders for as long as your'e alive." *both Yan and Marisa turn their heads to the door* Jack: Sorry. Door was open and we kinda heard you guys talking. Kagami: Don't worry though. The map that Yan gave us shows that each room is on its own floor. Thanks for the map, by the way. Marisa: "What did you mean 'master?'" Vincent: "Kitsune are born with a ball shaped sphere called hoshi no tama. When they learn how to speak, the hoshi no tama phases out of their chests. When someone else touches it, they absorb a portion of the power and become the kitsune's master. The kitsune is then once again able to phase the hoshi no tama back into their chests, and in return, their master is now like the hoshi no tama. But that's strange. Because usually the person who becomes the master immediately like that has to have come in contact with the hoshi no tama before the kitsune has physically turned 5. Otherwise it would take 3 days for the effects to take place." Marisa: *turns back to Yan* Why did you have it in your room on the dresser?" "Because... I was hiding this room. Hiding my hoshi no tama was the only thing seprarating the master from my eternal loyalty." Jack: "But now... he still cant get the power of the hoshi no tama because Marisa has it?" *nods* Kagami: "And youre now Marisa's protector." *nods* Vincent: "The kitsune has to protect them unless they reject the power of the hoshi no tama. Then the pact is broken and the power returns to the hoshi no tama." Marisa: "How do I reject the power?" Vincent: "That I dont know. It has something to do with the harvest moon. But for now, it can't be helped." Its only a matter of time before the master finds out about this. |

| ~~~HAPPENING AT THE SAME TIME AS THE ABOVE POST~~~ *Kagene is found in his room thinking . . . you can see several pieces of paper on his desk and a books organized on a shelf . . . . an open chess board is seen near the window . . . the pieces are arranged in such an order* Chessboard said: BLACK
WHITE
*Kagene looks at the chessboard* "Hmmm, ahahaha! For some reason this board almost looks like our current game aha! I'm eager to see to the humans even hope to put up at least an entertaining challenge before times up!" *Kagene then resumes thinking . .* "Geez . . now that my Lord and Marisa know about THAT, how can I continue the progress on this play? . . .* *Kagene starts getting dizzy and sees a flashback of 500 years ago* *At midnight, the full moon is up. Inside an old house is a young boy and two women who appear to be in their teens* "Mom . . where did Dad and mister . . . go?" *thinking for a bit. Then sways her purple hair, she smiles, then gives an answer* Mariya: Oh them? They said something about a war between humans breaking out, and they decided to put a barrier around this place. So that no humans can enter this area. *In thought, sitting on the same side of the table with arms crossed* Young Lady: "Really . . . humans are not the brightest species. They fight each other just to attain a small fragment of power, and when they do . . they just abuse it, if only someone were to teach them a lesson." "nnnn? miss . . isn't Mom a human though?" Young Lady: "Yes she is, but she's an exception . ." *she looks at Mariya with a friendly look* "She was blessed by the angels since birth, giving her a long and prosperous life . . . one can say that she's not entirely human anymore ^^" *the door quickly opens up, upon opening, it breaks down . . two men looking around their old teens enter . . one man has snow white white hair and and a recognizable smirk across his face. . . the other man is not clearly in focus, and appears to be a dark silhouette . . both men's clothing are covered in crimson blood, yet both are not wounded. . . * Kagetsuki: Hey there, we're back! *He waves to everyone, wiping the blood off his clothing* "Dad! Your back!" *Young Kagene runs up to his father. Their little reunion in interrupted* Dark Silhouette: . . . really, after what we just just did, we come home . . . . and You just HAD to break a door again. . such a fool . . Kagetsuki: Ahahaha, don't worry, don't worry. Soon, we'll turn this home into great mansion one day. Your gonna help me as well. Dark Silhouette: Help you!? If you want my help then why don't we battle it out. *He replies with a small smirk on his unclear face, an aura starts to emanate* Kagetsuki: Haha sure, I'm all for it! same rules as last time then? Whoever does the most damage before the full moon rises wins! *both guys leave, you can hear the sounds of a playful fight outside. Young Kagene also leaves to watch the fight, trying to imitate whatever the older guys are doing.* *As the three go outside, the two young women stay inside, lightly laughing* Young Lady: Really, those guys . . all they do play around . . Mariya: True, but it looks like their having fun at least! *Kagene gets back to his senses . . . * "Hmmm, seems like an old memory . . . I wonder whatever happened to that young lady, and the whereabouts of that guy . . ." *At this time, a signal goes through his head* " . . . I have a gut feeling that something interesting is happening to those humans . . might as well go and check things out." *Kagene leaves the room. As he leaves, one of the bishops move towards the opposing side, and the two knights begin to move as well* |

| *having left the room, Kagene arrives at the room he hasn't been in before . . . he encounters the humans* "Hmm . . . I had a feeling that there was an extra room here, but I didn't know it actually exists . . . might as well drop by and see what's happening inside" *having entered the room, he sees that some of the humans are frozen on the spot, Yumi in one side somewhat looking like she just awoken, and Yan with Marisa found near a dresser off in the other side* "Haha what's happening here!? Judging from the looks of things, I guess miss Ninako was here as well? . . . asides from that, for some reason . . something in the room feels different . . . Marisa, what happened a little a while ago?" *looking somewhat troubled standing beside Yan, being somewhat confused from what Yumi said, not knowing what to do with what Ninako said, and knowing something about the Lord that she's supposedly not allowed to tell anyone, she keeps silent* "Haha, something tells me that something interesting just happened . . . hmmm, I take that back . . more than one interesting event happened" "Hey You! What've you been doing up to now! Why are you here now!" "Haha, like I have to tell the likes of you" *Kagene pulls a large weapon from his pocket* "What the!? How did you get something like that from there!?" "Relax, relax . . . can't you tell . . . this was the very weapon you've been holding up to now . . . I just decided to take a look at it haha" *he finishes his inspection, then throws the weapon out the door . . . the weapon goes into a portal, then comes out another portal right above Vincent . . . the weapon falls then plants itself standing upwards on the floor . . . barely cutting Vincent's face, it bleeds a little* *somewhat shocked that his own weapon was taken in such a round about way, and fearful at what just happened* "He did this before . . . . he utilizes dimensions and gaps . . . not to mention he seems to be able to act like a ghost at will" *smirks, then gives a sarcastic laugh* "Wow . . . your sure knowledgeable when it comes to the supernatural, I honestly didn't know haha!" "YOU! Get us out of here right now! I'll kill you!" "No way, this is your problem, deal with it yourself . . . besides, I told you several times already . . . I can't die haha . . . technically I'm already dead ahaha" "You . . someone's already looking for you . ." "yeah I know that . . I just decided to do this first aha" *turns to Marisa and Yan* "Hmm . . . I don't know what exactly happened regarding you two . . . but for some reason you girls gives off a different aura then a few minutes ago . ." *with no response from either, Kagene then turns humans* "Haha you humans are sure unlucky! You ran into 4 residents within the span of 1 minute . . I'm really interested in how you'll retaliate aha . . . besides about your current situation . . . I'm sure that ice will defrost in due time hahaha! . . . too bad, that there's nobody that can easily melt that for you . . . perhaps, a fire user?" *before leaving the room, he gives a quick glance to Yumi* "Well, well . . . seems like you got to meet each other again haha . . for now I gotta go for a bit . . I have some things to do" *Kagene leaves the room nonchalantly . . . Marisa looks even more confused . . she looks at the door only to see a slight change in Kagene's appearance . . . his hair is starting to become snow white while he's leaving* *Knowing he's being watched . . . Kagene dissipates, leaving no trace behind* " . . . . what does he mean by 'got to meet each other again' . ." *Kagene uses a portal to directly respond to Marisa . . . his voice resounds in her head, nobody else can hear it* "HaAhAaHaHa, YoU dOn'T kNoW!? tHeN pErHaPs YoU'lL rEmEmBeR oVeR tImE hAhAaHaHa!" *displaying a look a fear to the others, she slightly trembles . . . . the others in the room don't know what's going on* "Th-this voice again . . . what does he plan to do . . ." |
|
| *watches Kagene leave* So it's happening to him? Strange... I though that it wasnt supposed to happen unless something happens to the master... * not knowing that Marisa was looking at her as if wanting to ask a question* "Well... I kind of read your mind just now..." "Eh?!" " Must be a side effect of what had happened. Marisa has the power of Yan's hoshi no tama and so now Marisa can hack into her mind." *sighs in defeat as a sweatdrop appears* "Sorry! I didnt mean to, it just sort of happened." *another sweatdrop appears* "Its not your fault." *is shivering* "Oi, I hate t-t-t-to interrupt, but Yan? D-do you have any kinda spells or m-muh...magic that can get rid of this ice-e-e? Im freezing..." *remembers that Ninako froze her* "Ah, sorry about that. Ninako isnt the type to hold back her thoughts towards people. I apologize for what she did, even though if she had been serious, it would have been far worse." *walks over and places one hand in front of Kagami's leg and the other below her chin in a ninja hand sign with two fingers up. Yan looks at the ice as her eyes flash and the ice instantly turns into water vapor* Nice timing, though. Hopefully Marisas forgotten what she asked-- "Ah! I heard that. You never did answer me. You know why Kagene and the others are starting to act differently! Why is everybody acting so differently? And why arent you? Please tell me if something bad has happened to niichan!" *looks down* "When a monster becomes a servant to a master of a resident of their house, they recieve a certain mark that proves it. But... the mark alters whoever recieves it. It reduces their power, keeps them from being able to leave, and it divides your mind." "So all of you here..." "We all have 2 different personalities. 2 different beings in one body. And the master wills 1 personality to be dominant, but if something happens to the master, such as his control over the marks is weakening or something like that, then the 2nd personality will come out. When it does, the person will even look different and have a higher level of power. Sometimes even a different kind of power." "But that still doesnt explain why only niichan has transformed so far." "We all change in order of who became a resident first, second, third, et cetera, and whos crest is bigger. Kagene's crest is biggest and so he transformed first. But since the 2nd personality is not dominant, it tends to go back and forth between personalities until one becomes stable for long enough." "So what youre saying is that when the master loses control of the crest due to age, the 2nd personality is no longer held back and then both personalities become eventually interchangeable?" "Yes. Though we cant control when we change and when we change back. Also, the second personality is held back for so long that its usually not as..." "Controlled?" *nods* *stands up and starts to leave the room* Wait-- *gets pulled back into the room by the force of the energy from the hoshi no tama* "What was that?" "Its what happens when you give me an order. My body moves on its own." Not to mention it hurts to be pulled like that. *read thoughts* "Oh... sorry about that. I was just wondering where you were going." "It was about time I told you something." *everyone leans in to listen closely* "You smell funny." *and they fall comedically* *Jack's armpit was a little too close to Kagami's nose, and...**turns to stone, as eyes roll to the back of her head. "If you want to follow me, Ill show you where you can bathe to get rid of the smell." *sweatdrops* I guess youkai dont know what sweat is... *all leave the room and Jack drags statue Kagami along while trying to keep up with the others* |

| *Is currently in his study, curiously looking at the now changed chessboard* " . . . . seriously, is it me, or did the pieces in this board move since the last time i checked it . . . why is that" *gets a flashback* *set around 200 years ago, around the industrial era . . . young Kagene (his appearance is similar to that of what he look like now) walks into a large room of a mansion only to see his father and man playing chess* "dad . . ever since this mansion was built not too long ago . . . you two have been keeping yourselves in this room for quite some time . . . and playing chess?" Kagetsuki: "Son, there is nothing wrong with playing with an old friend *he gives a glance to the dark silhouette of a person*, besides we only stay in this room for 4 hours of the day . " Dark Silhouette: Kagene, times are always changing . . . the humans are too busy in an industrial boom, there shouldn't be war coming from their kind any time soon . . . Kagetsuki: Hahaha, yeah he's right . . . those humans are too busy on their own matters . . if a war were to breeak out it would probably only be a great war if it were around 100 years from now. We can live our lives here at peace! *hearing their random conversation of wars and such . . . Kagene's curiosity becomes zero . . he then leaves the room* "Well . . . I don't really care what you guys do! I'll just go outside and train myself!" *leaves* Dark Silhouette: Haha, your son must be at the awkward age then? I'm eager to see how grows up to be like! Kagetsuki: *scratching his head full of snow white hair* . . hahahaha yeah, I'm sure he'll grow up to be good being . . but for now, it's 200 years too early for him to even think of matching up against one of us ahahaha! *remembering about some more events happening back then, Kagene's answer was given* "Hmmm . . now I remember . . . that man was the one who gave me this chess board . . . I wonder why though, and exactly what does this thing do . ." *Kagene's hair become half white, and a demented smile appears on half of his face . . right now he looks as if he were two people at once* "HaAhAhAaHaHa! WhY dOn'T wE aSk ThAt MaN tHeN!?" "You crazy!? If I knew that, I would've asked him already . ." "CrAzY aHaAhAaHaHa! WhO's ThE oNe TaLkInG tO hImSeLf!?" " . . . even if I am talking to myself . . . I know that your just a second personality . . . your existence was solely created 100 years ago from my feelings of the 7 great sins . ." "RiGhT rIgHt! ThE sEvEn GrEaT sInS hAaHaHa! PrIdE . . aNgEr . . LuSt . . GrEeD . . LaZiNeSs . . GlUtToNy . . AnD jEaLoUsY aHaHaAhAhA! bUt, At ThAt TiMe . . WaSn'T tHaT mAn AnD fAtHeR hApPY tO sEe Us LiKe ThIs!?" " . . yeah they were smiling when it happened . . almost as if they wanted this . . . even mom and that woman weren't really surprised either . . . what's all this about . . ." "HaAhAaHaHa! SpEaKiNg Of WhIcH . . wHeN cAn We GeT tO kIlLiNg ThE hUmAnS tHiS tImE!?" *Kagene left eye erupts a blue flame . . he then reverts back to normal . . but strangely he continues talking to himself* "Haha, in due time, in due time. This batch is different then usual . . they actually want to put a challenge this time . . making it fun . . For now, we'll just continue with this entertaining game and see what may happen next . . . . if the killing were to begin, it should happen around 2 weeks from now . . other than that I have nothing to fear about my sister's well being hahaha!" *He then sees some fog rising from within the walls . .* "Ehh!? Someone's in the onsen!? Might as well go and check that out then . ." *Kagene leaves the room . . this time bringing his chessboard with him* |
|
| *sets up shampoo, soap, and towels on each side of the baths* That should be enough. There are extra towels and soaps just in case Kagene, Ninako, Yumi or Master decide to bathe later. *Yan pauses momentarily, gripping heart* I dont quite know how else to explain or describe it, but... the feeling that came after the hoshi no tama was absorbed... when I was given an indirect order, too. These things seem all too nostalgic... like theyve happened once before. *shakes head and stands up* Oh well. It cant be helped. Besides, if I cant remember it, then it must not be very important. *goes to the entrance to the onsen and ushers humans inside.* "Sugee..." "Its so big!" "The male side is on the left and the female side is on the right." "Got it! Me and Vince'll be over there then. Thanks, Yan!" *runs off, dragging Vince* *grabs extra towel and goes to the changing room with Kagami and Marisa* Yan. I have a task for you to accomplish. Come quickly. *sighs, leaving the room without changing. Yan tries to leave* "Wait a second." *pulled back into the room by invisible force*Itetetetetete... "What is it?" "You headed towards the changing room with us and then left all of a sudden. Arent you gonna bathe too?" "Yeah. When I get back. I have to take care of something. Excuse me." *falls upwards through the ceilings and flies to the right until Yan is standing in front of the master.* "You called for me?" "Yes. *smiles darkly* I have a small mission for you to accomplish... "And what might that be?" "I have already given Ninako orders to kill one of the humans. She is free to pick which one to kill. And that is where you come in. My previous orders for you to take care of the humans come into play at this point. In a week, I want you to report to Ninako the things you have learned about the humans. Strengths, weaknesses, intelligence, positions in the group, and anything else. This will help her in deciding who is best to kill. And while I am fully aware that Marisa is now the owner of the power in the hoshi no tama, now is not the time to discuss it. As for her new abilities to read your mind, I am currently blocking your mind from her, so no need to worry about her finding out. That is all." *leaves* "Oh, and one other thing." *turns around* "Be careful. You started living here a few hundred years after Kagene did, and about 75 years before Yumi and Ninako came. You are second on the list to transform. And with Kagene's second personality coming out already, yours will be coming out at any given time now. And when it happens, I will be unable to block your thoughts any longer." "Understood." *leaves* Why is he acting so nice and being helpful all of a sudden? He didnt even make one joke and get me mad... Nevertheless, I was right... but if our second personalities are coming out, then that means that the master is about to-- *eyes widen* ...Meanwhile... *hears Yan's thoughts and laughs* "So she's figured it out. I wouldnt expect anything less from my offspring. Yes, Yan, the reason Ive been nice to everyone lately is the same reason Ive been in my room all day every day. I poisoned myself. I made a promise to a good friend that when one of us were to die, the other would come and teach both our family's kids the ways of this mansion... " *coughs violently as black, glittering blood comes up from his stomach and onto all over the floor* "... as well as the truth of what happened when you all were too young to remember. The incident that caused you all to forget everything." *lays on the bed, looking at the ceiling* "I hope that Ill at least live to see the end of the game." |

| ~~Happening at the male side in the bath~~ " . . . . . . ." "Yo Vincent . . . why you so quiet now? Did something happen?" *Vincent puts on a thinking gesture, trying to sort out his thoughts* " . .no, isn't this a bit out of place . . . we're trapped in the cursed mansion with monsters all over the place, not knowing what they are planning . . . yet we're here happily taking a bath . . ." *Alex comes into the onsen as well* "Haaaaa~~ . . . we should just enjoy the moment for now . . I mean some of them aren't all that bad" "Yeah! From the looks of it, all we have to worry about is probably that girl that uses ice, that crazy guy, and that Lord person . .right!?" "That's what getting me . . . in truth we havn't seen her that much . . . that guy seems to be playing games with us, and also happens to be Marisa's brother . . and we don't even know who the Lord is . . . on top of that, I'm not entirely sure of the other residents plans . . . how are we supposed to get out of here with our current state of things . . ." *Jack starts winding his arm, as if he was exercising* "No worries, all we have to do either defeat the Lord or just end that stupid guy's game of his! *after a short pause . . . the male's side of the onsen starts becoming bloody red, and the bodies of dead corpses start to appear within the waters . . . . the three guys then jump out of the onsen in surprise and disgust* "Wh-wha-what the heck was that!?" "HaHaAhAhA, yOu FoOlS! tHaT's WhAt YoU gEt FoR tAlKiNg BaD aBoUt SoMeOnE wHeN yOu ThInK tHeY aReN't ArOuNd AhAaHaHa! *the guys start seeing a feint shadow of a man across the onsen, covered in a fog . . . they turn towards the exit, only to find that it's been blocked off with more corpses . .* "damn . . what the heck is going on here!? All these dead bodies . . .urgh . . "FaCe It! YoUr NoT gOiNg To EsCaPe HaHaAhA! *the man glides closer to his confused victims, the brace themselves . . . shortly after the fog disappears, and the humans turn towards the man . . . only to find Kagene laughing in a hysteric manner* "Hahahaha! What the . . . your reactions are just priceless!" *They look around and find out that the onsen is back to normal, and all the corpses are gone* "YOU! I swear I'll kill you! *Jack attempts to attack . . only to slip on the wet floor . . his body phases right through Kagene's and falls into the onsen* "We told you already, We can't die . . We're already dead . . . besides that . . . you guys are really laid-back considering your current situation . ." "urg . . "what are you here for . ." *putting an sarcastic gesture, Kagene answers* "We just came here to see who exactly was in the onsen at this time . . nothing else . . . " *getting back to his senses* "Then . . what about the corpses we saw moments ago . ." "What corpses? . . . maybe you three were just seeing things . . . . " "Don't lie! your crazy antics are not going to work this time!" *Kagene starts to hear some splashing water on the other side . . . the girls are getting out of the onsen in a rush, curious to try to find out why the guys were screaming just a while ago* "Hmm . . guess it's time for us to make our escape then haha" *Kagene falls backwards into the onsen . . he opens a portal just above the water surface and falls into it, allowing him to leave the area* "damn . . WAIT! . . . geez, he's gone . . . *Vincent starts to put things together* "That voice we heard in the fog earlier . . . such a terrifying voice . . . who was that? . . and . . is it me, or does that guy's talking pattern seems a little different . .? ~~Happening at the lounge room of the mansion~~ *Kagene steps out of a portal and sits on the couch, a smirk appears across his face* "Hahaha, those reactions were just great, I can't wait to see what else the humans do!" *the other personality starts to appear* "HaHaAhA! nIcE mOvE wE dId! tO uSe ThE pOrTaL tO bRiNg ThOsE dEaD bOdIeS iNtO tHe OnSeN aHaHaAhA! tHeN tO tAkE tHe CoRpSeS aWaY, lEaViNg No TrAcEs BeHiNd!

"haaa, true true . . . other than that . . . are you done with the preparations for the next step?" *after a short pause* "Haa never mind, of course it's ready by now . . . let's go the destination then!" *Kagene stands up, then walks towards the stairs* |
|
| *walks into the onsen** Devilish side* "what the hell is going on over there" *see the girls starlted by the screaming of the boys on the other side* what was that noise, sounds like the boys over the wall "no need to waste your time of being worried of something...it could have been Kangene trying to frighten them" *heats up bath water with her fire* "how the hell can you guys bathe in such cold water" |
| *while walking back towards the onsen, hears screaming from the boys and immediately reaches the place* "What's going on here?" "Well, wer'e not exactly sure. I heard nii-chan's voice, then all of a sudden the boys started screaming." "We would have checked it out, but we got startled because of their screams and accidentally got our clothes drenched." *yumi rolls her eyes* "You would have caught colds if you had put them on wet." Humans are more fragile than I thought. It makes them easier to kill! Shut up! "Alright, Ill go check on what's happening." *flies over the wall, accidentally scaring the already shaken up guys. They then realize who it is* "Oh, sorry Yan." "Can you tell me what happened? We heard you screaming from over the wall." "It was just Kagene's other personality. He thought it would be funny to pull a prank on the humans." Damn it! That butt licker beat me to it. I wanted to be the first to scare them with a prank! "His second personality?" *eyes widen* "Did it look like he just came out on his own or Kagene willed it to come out?" "Well... it was kind of hard to tell that..." "But I don't even think his second personality came out. The voice was Kagene, but his hair was half white." *a little relieved* "Sou ka." He's still not accustomed to the second personality. Good. That means I have a bit more time before mine comes out. You mean take over? Cause I pretty much have all the freedom in the world to speak while Im in your head. Or at least I will soon. Any minute now actually. You mean its about to start happening? Not tel-ling~ Cause then you'll be mad.. Damn it! Haha, were starting to have the same vocabulary! Shut up! *starts to see black dots and feels dizzy* *both guys run over to her* "Oi, are you alright?" "Im fine. Don't worry about me."*pulls away and phases through the walls into the hallway* False alarm! Hahaha! See? Pranks can be really fun! I just made you think that I was about to take over. That was fun for you, not me. Do that again, and Ill kill you. Well youre no fun. Besides, its impossible to get rid of me. Even more impossible than you dying. Whatever... *goes back to the onsen* |

"'Up is down'? Well thats maddeningly unhelpful."- Captain Jack Sparrow |
| *Kagene enters an empty room . . the room looks as if it hasn't been used in quite a long time, and the dust around the room signifies that nobody has been there either* "Heh . . seems like everything is still in place, shall we continue with the operation?" "HaH, lIkE yOu HaVe To AsK yOuRsElF wHeThEr To CoNtInUe YoUr OwN sChEmE!" "True, but for me to continue, I'll have to seal you away a bit to lower suspicion" "FiNe By MeEeEeE! i JuSt WaNt To FiNiSh WiTh It AlReAdY aHaHaHhAhA!" *Kagene seals his other self, and reverts back to normal. He then takes out the chessboard and places it on the floor wide open. Then removes a book from his pocket, and recites some lines . . . afterwards a short rumble is felt throughout the mansion. Kagene takes out his sword from a portal and stabs directly into the 2 dark knights on the chessboard . . . the room glows and hidden objects start to appear . . the room is no longer empty anymore . . . a notebook etched with the hiragana for "Kage . ." is found at the end of the room. Kagene picks in up* "Hahaha, mi'Lord . . . We can't believe you actually tried to hide this away from us this whole time . . it was only recently that We remembered . . but this book was originally our father's" *The door slams open and a dark silhouette enters Kagene's view* "So, I guess you finally remembered about this place . ." *Kagene throws the notebook into the portal. The portal leads to a place only known by Kagene* "well of course . . you and our father used to play around in this room many times several years ago. We would like to say 'How can we forget!' . . . but unfortunately we did forget." "well then, it's about time I stop hiding things from you about the whereabouts of your father . . why don't you take that book back out and begin reading it?" *hesitantly Kagene takes the notebook out, and opens to the first page. Reading it . . . a little while later, a shocked look appears on his face.* "Haha, this is literally the first time I've seen you shocked in your whole lifetime . . you always keep that fake smirk on your face, this expression suits you well" "Tsk . . damn it . . we didn't even consider this possibility . . . hoi, I think it's about time for you to come out, you can finally have some fun and play around with him like you always wanted" *Kagene's skin become pale white and snow white hair appearsr, a demonic aura surround him as a demented smile surfaces on his face* " HaHaHaHa ThAnKs FoR lEtTiNg Me OuT aNd GiViNg Me ThIs ChAnCe To HaVe FuN! WeLl ThEn, I gUeSs ThIs'Ll Be ThE fIrSt AnD pRoBaBlY lAsT tImE yOu'Ll sEe tHiS fAcE!" *Kagene with his demented smirk, makes a gesture with his left hand . . . about to speak, the Lord interrupts him* "I know you probably know this already . . . but do you know about the true extent of your own powers? . . Most beings mistaken it for portal and dimension control . . . that's true to several extents . . . but it actually leads to an alternate dimension . . a world different than this place . . . have you ever thought what exactly is the space from here and there?" *Kagene grits his teeth trying to keep his usual composure. he then feels a light presence behind him . . . turning around, he sees a large white shadow . . . and before he realizes the outline of that shadow, Kagene is struck to the ground, severely bleeding, he reverts back to his normal self . . . and mentions a last line before going unconscious* "D-da-damn it . . . if I knew that . . . then this would be different . . ." "KuH . . . tHiS fOrCe . . . It'S sTrOnGeR tHaN tHaT gUy . . I cAn'T bElIeVe We GaVe HiM aN oPpOrTuNiTy To HiT uS fRoM bEhInD!" *The Lord step closer to the white shadow and Kagene's unconscious body* "I knew you'd come . . . but I didn't think you'd hit your own son this hard . . are you sure about this . ." Kagetsuki: Hahaha, yeah of course! I'm sure that hit would only be enough to keep him down for about 5 more minutes. Hesitant to say this . . but he's sure grown up to quite an interesting kid, I might even say he can compete against us at this time. 'Well, that may be true, and it seems like he was able to easily co-exist with the other self. But as of right now there are more pressing issues to deal with. Kagetsuki: Like what? The humans I saw at the bath a few seconds ago . . surely that's not a problem! "No that. . I'm talking about the fact that I'm currently weakening as of this very moment. By the way, how goes the revival of your wife?" Kagetsuki: It's going pretty good, I found a way to get her back . . I just need this idiotic son's co-operation. *Kagetsuki lightly kicks the sleeping Kagene on the stomach, who is fully healed at the moment. then faces the Lord* Kagetsuki: Well we should continue with this later, I'm sure Kagene will get up any moment now. "Yeah your right. Then again your probably going to use this time to see your daughter as well?" Kagetsuki: haha you know me well . . don't worry though. I'll make sure I'm not seen! *Kagetsuki nods then dissipates, the Lord nods back and leaves the room . . . shortly after . . . Kagene gets back up . . holding the two broken black knight pieces on his hand* "Hmmm . . . this has just become more interesting . . ." *he says as he crushes the two knights to pieces* |
