Lance let out a small groan as the Iv was stuck into his arm his eyes became weary. He tried struggling to stay awake but to his disappointment he failed Gently falling asleep.

Lucien frowned as he was told he wasn't allowed to kill anyone. A man ran into the cell room over to Lucien and whispered into his ear "Sir there is a commotion in the plaza that requires your assistance, It seems Noelle is angry" Lucien smiled and stood up looking at Zero. "Excuse me i have some matters to attend to"

Lucien made his way out of the door to the prison facility taking off into the air and flying into the center of the plaza landing carefully. "Hello and welcome to the government assistance division how may i help you today?" he said wickedly looking up at Noelle playing dumb.

"You can stop playing dumb with me for a start," Noelle points the blade of the sword at Lucien, blood and other parts from the guards still dripping from it, "You know why I'm here and you better not have hurt him."

Just than, Noelle hears someone calling her name. Crap, I can't get anyone else involved in this. What was Charlie thinking of sending someone after me..

Ted frowned lowly and stepped back slowly. "This isn't good.... I may like fighting the demons and beasts, but you can have fun with this one." He said cautiously and watched her for a moment before going back to Charlie who was leaning against the corner of a building.

While Lucien went to take care of the intruders, Zero rolled the sleeping man into a secret part of the government facility. He strapped him down to a table and stationed two armed guards outside the door just in case the beast was more then he could handle. He turned the machine on hoping to provoke the beast awake and take some of its essence for government use.

Noelle half listens to what Ted says and sighs with relief as she hears him leaving.

Putting all her attention on Lucien who had pulled out a new sword, Okay.. maybe this wasn't such a good idea after all.. if he gets one upper hand with that thing.. I am going to have to be very careful.. She narrows her eyes, "Experiments? How dare you and your sick partner experiment on him!" she yells, rage in her eyes and not caring about Lucien's new blade, charges at him and swings the blade at him when she's close enough..

OOC: Sorry, was at high school orientation =\

Leo, his power still halved picked himself up from the arena floor. "Ugh... must have blacked out... Where did everyone go..?" He said, tiredly walking towards the restaurant in search of Charlie and the others.

Lance awoke in massive pain. this machine was tearing him up what was this man trying to do "AGGHH, If your gonna kill me do it!" He said yelling at the top of his lungs struggling to get free "If you don't kill me and i make it out of here so help me i will kill you!"


Lucien smirked and cackled realizing he had touched a nerve. "Well, some one has high feelings for this man?" He quickly brought up his sword and clashed with Noelle they were now face to face. "How about a little kiss darling?" he said licking his lips and smiling insanely at her as he tried his best to push her off the blade.

"Idle threats from a pathological liar, if you transform we would not have to go through this, so Transform for me and we can finish this quickly." He turned the machine up higher hoping to get the kitsune to come out and play.

"You wouldn't know feelings if they jumped up and bite you in the ass, Lucien," Noelle replies coldly as he manages to block her blade with his, "All you feel is hate, no wonder no one else in the home wanted to be friends with you. They knew how messed up you really were."

Lucien gritted his teeth as the his blade added more pressure on Noelle's blade. "You think you have me all figured out don't you.. You miserable little whore... You know nothing about feelings or caring for others that's what got you separated form your sister in the first place, And as I recall i remember poor little old Noelle crying in corner because she had no friends as well!!"

Lucien slid his foot towards Noelle trying to knock her to her feet. "Your just a little child. do you really think he feels the same about you? A poor little theif who does nothing but break others hearts.."

Lance Screamed in utter torture as the pain doubled. Yet lance wasn't changing how strange on further inspection even though his pain was Unbearable he was keeping calm his emotions lowered. It was as if the pain was doing nothing to his mind just his physical body. "You think im just going to let you use me like this? as long as i stay calm that spirit of mine stays locked up.." He smirked with the chesire grin "So tough luck getting to me there is nothing you can do to upset me at this point.."

As Leo finally kicked open the door to the restaurant, he fell on the couch, he could barely stand. "Hello.... anyone home...?" he asked, muffled from being face down on the couch.

Ted had forced Charlie to come back to the restaurant and shoved her through the open door. She stumbled a few steps and glanced over at the couch that Leo lay on. "...Hey..." Smiling weakly as she stumbled over to sink down onto the floor by him. "See you made it back." Murmuring with a wet wheeze and cough as she watched Ted lock the door and block it up. "Someone.... Someone needs to go watch out for Noelle or Lance will never forgive me...."

Leo astonished to see Charlie hurt almost lost his cool. "Sorry... but I'm in no condition to fight..." he said getting up weakly. He then searched through his pouch and dug out his last piece of candy, handing it to Charlie. "Here.. it has healing properties but it's not meant for serious injuries. Hopefully though it should ease your pain." he said with a weak smile. As he sat back down on the couch, glancing at Ted.

Lucien's reply was like a slap to the face for Noelle, "You don't even know how many things I have came to regret over the years but don't you dare bring my sister into this, you never knew her or the reasons why I did what I did back than."
If he keeps adding pressure, there's no way the blade of this sword can take it..

"I know he feels the same for me or don't you think I would of been long gone by now." Noelle was so angry, she hadn't noticed Lucien sliding his foot toward her til one of her legs was knocked out from under her and she ended up landing on her rear...

Charlie grit her teeth at a wave of pain before taking the piece of candy and staring down at it. "What the heck is this...." Watching the man's back as he left and Ted came over to take care of wrapping the wound. "Crazy people we meet... Heh you sure do know how to attract them don't you Charmaine?" Ted said cautiously as he attempted to get her to pull off the torn shirt. "Yeah.... I guess you're right Ted." Smiling lazily and leaning back against the couch. His facial expression changed as he heard her speak and realized she wasn't upset at the use of her full name, to him this meant she was definitely hurt. Although he turned when Leo came back and tilted his head. "Oh....So you're staying after all? Well then be some help and put pressure on this wound for me."

(im sorry to do this but i will leave Tor in charge of my characters if she wants but i have to go outside and get my daily exercise)

ooc: D'awww.... This shall be fun. =D
Edited my post too~

occ: for who? lol.. o. .o I'm staying up a bit longer through before retiring.. also did small editting to my post..

Leo not knowing anything about medical procedures looked confused. "Won't adding pressure to the wound only make it worse?" he asked unsurely pressing his hands against Charlie's wound.

"If we put pressure on the wound itself and keep it even, then we don't have to worry about more blood spilling forth. The only thing we have to worry about right now is that glasses dude might have grazed a lung with that knife." Sighing, Ted hurried over with another first aid bag and went to work wrapping the wound securely. "Anyways... This is the only thing we can do before taking her to the hospital."

Leo nodded and continued to put pressure on the wound. *Thinking* (The situation is dire... I cannot let them know I'm injured too... must help them as much as I can..) "So Charlie, how're you feeling?" he asked with a weak smile.

Charlie groaned lightly and looked up at Leo with a puzzled expression. "Are you okay? I thought... He got you... I thought we'd lost a rebel..." Smiling sadly as she took a rattling breath. "You fought bravely... Thanks."

A twisted twitched on the edge of his lips. "I have been watching you young man for days. I know that Lucien and you share a secret desire for the same woman. You can remain calm and tied to my table as my partner skins her alive. I will be sure to keep you awake enough to hear her screams." He walked over to the other side of the room searching for a syringe. He mocked in the girls voice. "Where is the Killing Kitsune! Why didn't he help me!" He thrust the needle into the young mans arm drawing a blood sample at least he would have that even if the man did not change.

Lucien's plan was working he was using her anger against her to keep her off guard but now he had the advantage. "Well, looks like i win dear and after this im going to kill that pet.. What was his name Vance?Vince? Bob? Ahh it doesn't matter im going to kill him anyway right?" Lucien smirked as he pulled his blade straight up pointing it downward at Noelle's heart Thrusting it downwards.. "Die.."

Lance's eyes widened.. Thoughts were rushing through his head.. [she was fighting Lucien?!? no.. Oh god please no] Lances teeth grew longer and wider in size as he began to squirm about... "HOW DARE YOU LEAVE HER OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!!" His hands and feet turn to claws 2 extra tails sprout from his back.. "ILL KILL YOU!!"

Yes! He thought, stopping the guards in their tracks. Every one had their trigger his seemed to be the girl outside fighting Lucien. "Kill me? She will be dead before you get out of your straps... whats that... a scream... or the smell of female blood." he waited until the beast fully emerged before completely sticking the needle in and drawing blood, and the DNA he needed for testing.

Lance struggled and squirmed as the Straps started to tear and buckle under the strength of his kitsune form. "You know your blood will be a nice color to paint the town with" He looked up at the man his eyes red and insane like. "Hmm i wonder what i would use your intestines for.. Oh yes Christmas banners." the chesire grin appearing on his face as the right strap broke under pressure. "Oopsie seems that i have been a bad patient."

Noelle managed in time to bring the blade of her sword up to block Lucien's from plunging into her chest, There is no way I am going to lose this battle.. I have to calm down.. He's no different than any of those druggies or murderers I have fought in the past.. Images of everyone back at Charlie's flashed through her mind, she hoped Charlie was okay.

Than an image of her twin back the day they had been separated at the foster home, 'Please promise me, Noelle.. You won't stop searching for me when we're old enough to get out of this Hell..' How her hand had slowly slipped out of Noelle's as that government official dragged Collette away and had brought Noelle's world crashing down..

And Lance.. she had never expected to fall in love with someone like him, oh she had dated a few times before turning sixteen but usually the guys never called back for a second date.. when you had a psycho ex-best friend, what did you expect?

But first of all, she needed to get some distance between her and Lucien so she could plan out her moves this time instead of just running in like a complete idiot. Putting all her strength behind her sword and pushing upwards, she tries to use Lucien's blade to throw him off balance.. it would only give her a few moments at the least but any spare time that Father Time could grant her, she would gratefully accept.

After all, she had a promise she now intended to keep..

Leo winced at Charlie's statement. "You shouldn't be thanking me.. without you and Noelle, me and Lance.. well had things played out to there advantage I would have been as good as dead adding as to why you got hurt... thanks.. Charlie.." he said, gravely.

She smiled lightly and winced at a stab of pain. "Hmmm.... We can leave the talking to later... For now I should get to the rebel hospital and will you check on Noelle?" She asked with a easy frown. "I worry that she'll push herself to hard on this battle... Don't interfere, just help if she's down for the count." Mumbling as Ted and Jason prepared to hurry her out the door. Charlie gave in to Jason's insistence to carry her.

"Right.. you got it.." he mumbled as he watched Charlie go out the door. *Thinking* (I'll need to go buy candy for myself soon if I want to fully heal myself...) Leo staggered outside, falling a few times heading towards the plaza. Once he reached it, he sat down on the ground watching the two fight.

Leo, slowly understanding Luciens plan was worried Noelle would take the bait. *Thinking* (I'll just have to step in if things get too rough for her..)"

During the time that Lucien was on the concrete, Noelle had taken the chance to get back on her feet, thankfully everything seemed to be intact expect maybe her pride..

"How many times do I have to tell you, your not my best friend. My best friend died all those years ago when whatever the hell you are showed face." she says in complete disgust.

Narrowing her eyes as Lucien brings the walk talkie to his ear before responding to whoever is before telling her.. Lance was dead.. No.. he can't be.. "Your lying, he's not dead.." she mutters weakly..

Not bringing her sword up to defensive position over the shock of that news even through Lucien had his pointed at her and was telling her that not only did he know where Collette was but Lance's mercenary friends.. and that they would suffer the same fate as Lance had if she didn't.. kneel in front of him..

There was no way that Noelle would risk her sister's life but she wasn't just going to kneel in front of him, she was not that stupid. "Fine, let's make a deal first. If I kneel to you, you will promise not to hurt my sister or his friends. And you will leave the others here alone. And I want that promise sealed in blood.."

Charlie looked up at the doctor and frowned deeply. "Just do a quick patch job doc cause I need to get back out there as soon as possible!" She demanded sternly and glared up at him, the fire burning brightly in her eyes. Ted frowned and shook his head as he squeezed her shoulder and Jason spoke up. "Charlie you can't! You probably knocked a lung and you're trying to go back into the fight to soon! You can't d-" She cut him off midsentce with a low growl. "Then bite me and make me Were if you think that my body isn't strong enough! Because right now I'm sure that stupid enemy is going to pull a good trick on Noelle and I can't let her die or just lose."

Leo didn't think Noelle was going to fall for his trick, but in anticipation his sword was unsheathed and he was ready to come out of the shadows and strike Lucien.

Noelle doesn't answer right away even with the blade near her throat and his hand on her cheek, she knew something wasn't adding up but what.. "I said in blood, Lucien.. I won't kneel or bow till I see you do that."

Lucien was done negotiating he had here right where he needed her. "Fool, You have failed you let me get to close" He said smiling wickedly raising his blade. "let this be known as the day that the mighty Noelle dies at the feet of the friend she so carelessly threw away, Let this also be the day everyone realize that the Slaughtering Kitsune was nothing but a hoax easily defeated by a man with tranquilizers"

Lucien was happy he was finally going to get his vengeance one fatal and her death was promised. "Die you aweful Bitch." he swung the sword down at her neck attempting to behead her with his newly designed sword.

A giggled was heard from the roof tops as from no where a red and black flash of color appeared in front of Noelle. A women with black and red hair black clothing, Black and white arm warmers and black gloves with spiked knuckles and cat ears was balancing her self with one hand on the ground in front of Lucien parrying his attack with her free hand and spinning on her hand kicking him with both her feet.

"Don't talk bad upon my big brother you meanie." she said doing a front flip and landing on her feet. "Tsk Tsk Lucien don't you know better than to not give a women a fighting chance?" She said helping Noelle up to her feet "Now shall we kill him sweetie?" she said winking to Noelle

Leo almost fell backwards at the sight of the new female. He thought she was a ally but... "Big brother... that just can't be Lance's..." he said wandering off with the sentence. Studying the new ally carefully, trying to make sense of the situation.
