"If I'm going to help you out, let's get one thing straight. I just don't feel comfortable being called "Lady Eva" or any out of respect. It's all I hear, so if you mind just calling me Eva, that's fine with me. With that in mind, I'll definitely show support if the chance comes up," Eva said, fussing about this because she was not liking the formalities that much. --- "I̷̧̨t̸̡̡̀'̴̨͘s̸̀̕ ̶͝q̴̶̧u̷͞҉̛į͜͡t̷͡e̸̛ ͟͠͏͠͞t̡̛͠h̨̛̀͢͞e̸̵̢̡͝ ͟͢͟l͘̕͡͡ó͘͜ǹ̡g̡͡e͘͢ş̛͢͟͏t̸̛̀ ̴́I̸̢̕͢͠ ͢͏̴͘h̷҉a̢̡͏͢͝d̷͘ ̧̕i͏ń̴̡͜h҉̨̛̕͜a̵̵̡b̷̵͠i͠҉̀͡t̶̢̀e̵͠d̷̶̨͝ ̵̡͞ą̛̛̀͝ ̛͝h͡͝͝ǫ̸͞s̛͘͢t̀́ ̡͢b̶̢́͞o̕͘͝d́̕͟͝y͡͏͟͞,̧̡̀ ̵̛́͟͢K̷̸͘ą̷̨͝í̴͞k̡̨̕ą͠ ͏̧̡͡n̷͟e҉͝҉v̶̡́͘͟e̵͞͞͝҉r̕͟͢͡ ̨͟c̷̡̀l̢e̶̴̷̶ą̸͟͝r̢̛ĺ͜y͝҉ ͢͢f̶҉̨͠i̴̢̕͠g̵͠u̸̕͜͡r̸̛̀́͢ę̴͜d̷̕͡ ͏͢o͏̨̡ứ̕t̷̢̕͢͏ ̴m̛͝y͜͢ ͞͡p̀͢҉͘r͜҉e̴̕s͡͏é́̕ń̴̢̕̕c̸̷̢̧͞e̡͝͏ ͢҉w̢̕͢i͢t̸̶̶͜h̕͢͝͠i̕n̕͘͜ ̵̷̵̨͟h̢̧ȩ̢͘͜͠r̢̨̛̛̛.̵̷̛͜͝ ̢̛̕͏̛Ơ̴̶͟r̷͜į̸ģ͜͠i̶̧̡̕͟ņ̴́́͞a̢̛͟l̢̕͟͝ĺ̛y̢̕̕͝,̸͟͏ ̶̧̧̕I̢̛͝ ҉̴̶͜a̧͡҉͜͢í̸̕͝ḿ̶̸̕e̷҉̷̛͞d̷̛͡͠ ̀҉̡t̵́͜͠͡o͏̧͏͏͝ ̀͘s̴̢l̵͟o͝w͘͠͏̷l̶̴̢͟ý̧͞͡ ́͏t̸͘͜҉͝a҉̵̸k̸̶̡̕͜e̵̵ ̷̨͟͟ç̀o͘҉ņ̢̧͢͏t̢̀͠͝r̨͠ò͞l̸̢̛ ̸͞o̷̴͘v҉̨ę͏̶r̵͞͞ ̵͡h͟é̢́r̀̀͟͞,͟͟͢ ̶́͏̀b͟͜͝u̡͡͏͞t̢͜ ̢͝t҉̷̛͠͠h̵̴̛́a̵̷̵t̡̕̕͢ ̧̛͡p̡̨͘͝͡e͠͡ş͠͠k̕y̷̷̧͟ ̛́͠w̸̢̕͡ì̕͘͜l͜͏̸͜͝l̢̡ ҉̸ǫ̷͢͏̛f͢҉ ̸͡h̶̢̛ę҉r̕͏҉s̴҉҉ ̡̛͟m̧̀͠a̷͜d̛͡e͡͏ ̡̀҉t̨̛̛͘͝h̸̸҉̀͞e̸͏͟͞͏ ̷͏ṕ̢r̡̧̡̕ó̢̨͝c̷̨e̷̢͢͠ś̵̛́͏s̸͢ ̡̕͞d̴͠҉i͠͝f́̀͜f҉̵í̶̵̧̧ç͘͟͟u͝͞҉̸l̴͡͡t́҉̨́ ́͜͞͠t̸̴̡͘̕o̴͞ ̡͠c̢҉ó̸̢̢͜m̷̀҉p̸͞҉͘͝l̡҉̴͞e̸̴̵t̶͜ȩ̸̷.̨͜ ̡̛̕S̷͘͢͠o̢͘҉̵,̕͟ ̵a̶̵͠ ͟͞c̷ḩ̧͜͠a̕҉̴̧̢ǹ̨g̸̴͝e̛̕͟͝҉ ͝͏̴̀o̴͢f҉̨́́ ̴͠p͝҉l̷̡̧̢͞a̧͜͡n̷̴s̵҉̴͡ ̴̢̢̕͢w̛͘a̴̸̧͜s̷̕͟͡ ͏̶̀͜n̴̢͜e̴͢e͏̢́d́e҉̡͢d̡͘͡͝͞,̷̨̧͢ ̴̴͟á͡ǹ̡̕͝d̷҉̴̴ ̴̀͢͜͞t̸̡͢͜͠h͘͟ȩ̀͘ ̀̀͜͠b̵̴e̶̴̡͠à̡m̧͟͝ ̷̧͟͠y͠͞͠o̸̸҉̷ù͏̧͝ ̵̷̵͘͞f̸̢ơ̸̴̧͝ć̵̨͠͠u̸̴̷̡ś̕e̶̛҉҉d̶̨͞͞ ̷͠͞t̵̛́o͜ ̶̕p̢҉́́u̸̴͢͟r̶҉̢͟ģ̢e҉͜ ҉́́͢m̸̧̨̕͘e̵̶̢̕͘ ̧҉҉̧ò̴̵͟n̸͠l̶y̴͡͏͏ ̷̷͘͟g͞҉à̶̴̷͘v̶̴̡͝e̸̢̡͞͝ ̨̕͢͢m҉e͟ ̴̧͟a̴̢͠n̶͏̵͠ ̷̷̛͟͠ǫ̴͞p̴͢͝e͘͏n͏̧҉̡i̷̕͝ń̵g̵̡̕͝ ̛̀͡t̴̷͠͡ǫ̶̀͟ ̶̢̀́m̷͏̡́a̸̴͏̷̛ķ̴͢͢e̛͘ ̡͟t̛́͢͝͡h̢̧̕͞a̧͘͞͝ţ ̡̡́c̢̕h̸͜͡͝a̧̨͘ń̶͟͜g̴̵̕e̛͟͝͝ ̸̧̛͞o̸̵̧̢f̡̢̕ ̵̧̛p̸͢͞͡l̕͞͝a҉̧́̕ǹ̡̕.̸̸̢͞ ̛͢Ì̕͝ ̕͞҉l҉̸èt̵͞ ͠ḩ̸̵́̕e̶̷͜͝r͏̡̧́̕ ̢̕͞͞f̢a͏̧l͟͟͞l̵̷̛͝ ̶͠s̛͢͟͜t̶̸̷͞͠u̡͞ǹ̶̛͘͞n҉͢͡e̴̛͡d́͞ ̢̨t̀͝o̵̡̨͘͠ ̷͘͠t͞h͏̡e̵͜͠͏ ͜l̶̢̢͞i͏̵̀́ǵ́h̵̨͜t̛,̷̴̛͡ ̷̡͜͠g͜͟͡͠í̷͟͠v̛i̡̧̧̛͡ņ̡g̵̨̡͟ ͜m̸̨͜͝e҉̴ ͢͏̷̧̢t̨̢͜͡h́͘͝e̸̡͟ ̸̛̕͟͠ờ̡̨p̢̀͟ṕ̷̴̧͘o̶҉ŗ̸̶t҉̷̀͟͏u͟͜͢͞ń̴̶í͝t̷҉҉y̡͘ ҉̷͞͏͟t́o̴͠͠ ͘ş̨n̶̡͟ą̴͘t̡c̵̨͞͝h͢͏͏҉̡ ͝t̷̢̡͢͞h̸̛́҉̧į͜͞͏̴s̵.̶.̷̵̶̀.̴̷̸́a̶̧͘ ̵̛͞͞s̡͏̡̡h͟͟͝͡à̴̡͢r̢͟҉͝d̶͘ ́͝͞͡o̸͜͠f̶̀͟͝͞ ̶́̀h͜͢͠͞e͘͝r̸͞͡҉ ̴҉s̶̕o҉̵́u҉̵̧̢l̶̀.̷͟͜͠," the shadow explained that it had possessed Kaika for awhile, but never got the chance to fully take control of her. Holding the piece that it claimed to be a part of Kaika's soul, the crystal shard dissolved into the shadow's form, almost like absorbing that piece into it's darkness. As that happened, Kaika, who was unconscious, started to show signs of intense pain as part of her soul was taken in by the shadow being.
