"Ugh...it's okay Michael-kun...if it makes you feel better...this is one of the least horrible things she's done..." Meora keeps a sort of half-grin on her face while continuing to struggle against the magic. Ammi attempts to use her flames to force the magic off of her, and maybe pry herself free. It looks as if it's starting to work, but Nimika spots this, and pushes even harder on all 4 of the people she's trapped. "No. Bad kitty." Nimika scolds, wagging a claw at the goddess. She turns when Srg addresses her, and cackles. "Perhaps I'm just tired of their existences. Maybe I don't want a brother, a best friend, a new friend, or a big flaming bag of fleas hanging around me." "USO-TSUKI!" Meora hisses. "Sephie would never say something like that! You're not even a good imitation- GAH!" Meora's outraged outcries are replaced with the sounds of chocking as Nimika moves some of the magic holding her to the ceiling up to her neck. After it looks as if Meora is seconds from losing consciousness, Nimika stops with a giggle. "You're too loud for your own good, you know that?" Nimika smirks. "Thank you." Felixter thanks Srg for the use of his magic. "But what if I don't drop you? It'd be much more entertaining to let you stay up there. Who knows, maybe you'd starve to death..." Nimika suggests with an evil grin. Suddenly, the doors to the hotel open again, and what comes running in is an adorable, fluffy angel cat. "Mommy! Don't worry, the others are coming, and I saw everything from the Heavens! I know where-" Cloudy halts as soon as she sees Sephie. She's about to say hi, but the raspberry-colored eyes are unmistakeable to the angel, even when in the form of Sephie. "N...Nimika..." Cloudy trembles where she stands, her big green eyes getting even bigger with fright. "You know where what now, dear? You say you saw everything that's happened from the Heavens...?" Nimika turns to face the little angel completely. She glances up at Ammi with a smile that holds nothing but the worst intentions imaginable. "It seems that your little girl here is without a babysitter...don't worry, though. I'll gladly fill the position, free of charge. I mean, after all, Ammi....aren't we just the best of friends?" Nimika says. "DON'T YOU DARE!" AMmi flares up with desperation and rage, trying once more to pry herself free of the magic to save her child. "Cloudy-chan, RUN! HYAKU!" Meora cries with some of her remaining strength. "Come here, dear!" Nimika moves fast towards the small angel, sending her magic lashing at her. Cloudy screams, and narrowly dodges through her small size and speed. She flees down the corridor and disappears down a corner. Nimika gives chase. "G-grr...!" Natasha struggles against Fedora-man's magic, but in the end, ends up getting overpowered. "...What do you wish to know, sir?" "Aw...she stopped being loud and screamy." Amber frowns. "Too bad...you think we accidentally killed her?" Clancy murmurs.

"Well, upon coming back on a new life, the fatal wounds do heal...but..." Felixter glances towards the doors as they open. "Sephie! Oh, my dear child, we were so worried about you! What happened?" Ammi rushes to Nimika's side, feigning a relieved smile. "Eh, don't worry too much about it." Nimika says in Sephie's voice. "She tried to send me back off to the Demon Highlands so I could get brainwashed and become another one of Kebaratsu's puppets. Of course, she's not the only one who can make a portal...or kill a person or two." She snickers, just as Sephie would. Felixter feels slight unease at how good the imitation is. Meora tries to think of something that only a living Sephie could know or do...then grins as she gets the perfect idea. "Ne, Sephie-chan, what's going on with Kiroketsu-kun? He died when you did, right? Where is he? I feel like we should be beating him up for not protecting you. Because, y'know, that's kind of his JOB." "Kiro? Ah, I tried tapping into his thoughts to yell at him earlier, but he was still unresponsive. Seems he drank so much that he passed out on the dining room floor." Nimika laughs. "Ah...is that so...?" Meora keeps her cool on the surface, though inside of her mind, she's a bit freaked out by the fact that whoever this is knows exactly what happened to Kiroketsu, and wonders how it's possible. Quickly, she thinks up something else that could only happen with a real, living Sephie. "Well, maybe we should go into the dining hall and mess with him. It'd be funny~...." Meora suggests with a teasing tone. "You can go on ahead with that, Meora-sensei." Nimika sighs a bit wearily, with a tired smile to match. She turns around and starts heading away down the hall, back turned to them all. "I might go rest up some...I'm pretty tired..." "P-Perhaps I should check you over, Sephie. Make sure nothing's wrong. It'd be terrible if you went to take a nap, and then never woke up because of something horrible Nimika did." Ammi suggests before she can get too far away. "What? Ah, fine." Nimika rolls her eyes, and goes back over to Ammi. Ammi makes a small incision in the girl's wrist, and pumps her healing flames into it. Everything appears to be completely normal and fine. The fire has no strange reaction. "Ah...seems you're fine..." Ammi mutters. "Oh? What, are you disappointed that you don't get to nurse me back to health, Ammi?" Nimika coos teasingly. "That's adorable." "Well, you know how much I care about you all." Ammi chuckles lightly. "Here, Sephie." Felixter steps up to her side. "Why don't I accompany you to your room? Just to make sure there's nothing there waiting to kill you in your sleep or anything." "Man, you guys are all actin' a little weird now..." Nimika backs away from the group with a confused frown. "I know you're worried, but c'mon, we've faced Nimika like this before, and on much more serious terms." "Well, that is true...I guess we're just a bit on edge. A brand new world and everything..." Felixter nods slowly. "Sheesh." Nimika turns her back on the group again. "It's like you think any moment, something's gonna strike from the floor, just out of nowhere!...Something like...this?" Her voice becomes a bit deeper, and she glances behind her at the group again, her eyes flashing a raspberry color. Before they have time to react, Nimika's signature red-colored magic grabs Felixter, Meora, Ammi, and Michael from beneath them on the floor, and slams them against the ceiling. It pins them there as Nimika laughs, returning to her normal voice, but keeping Sephie's appearance, save for the eyes. "Aw, your little act was so cute, you know? But really, come now, did you honestly think I wouldn't see through it?" Nimika shakes her head. "Sorry, but that's just not the way it's going..." "W-why did you even come back here?! Aren't you finished yet?!" Meora growls, trying to struggle against the magic force. "Oh, I'm finished with Sephie for now, yes. I'm just killing time, making sure everything goes smoothly. I mean...you've wasted enough time now. It shouldn't be much longer until it happens." Nimika hums nonchalantly. "Until what happens?! What have you done, you horrible woman?!" Ammi shouts. "Yes...not long at all." Nimika turns around on her heels and starts walking away for the third time. "I think I'll just keep you up there awhile. You don't mind, do you? I didn't think so. I'm going on to check the progress of everything now. I'd say there's...a minute or two to spare." She says aloud, half to herself and half to further taunt the group stuck to the ceiling as she leaves them.

"As far as movement...I'll be okay." Felixter replies to Michael, leaning against the wall outside of the doorway. He pushed himself off, steadying himself on his feet so he can stand. "However, I'm not alright at all when it comes to everything else about this situation. Nimika told me nothing of my sister's whereabouts or what she did to her. She only gave me images and options to ponder on, and I'm guessing that not a single one was the truth..." While he talks, Felixter takes Ammi's other bracelet, her missing seal, out of his pocket and hands it back to her. "Wicked woman..." Ammi growls, putting her seal back on. "If I get my claws on her..." "I wanna beat the slimy smile off of that witch's face too, but our top priority here is Sephie-chan, especially now that we know even less about her situation." Meora says. "Well, knowing Nimika...I don't think she would've just went ahead and killed off Sephie completely. She knows about Lucille's powers, plus she would've wanted to be able to torture her while she did it. She was definitely not given enough time for that." Ammi explains. "You think she hid her somewhere?" Meora asks. "I've tried searching out Sephie's scent the whole time I've been here...I've gotten nothing." Felixter adds. "Neither have I. It's possible that she used magic to mask the scent." Ammi suggests. "What should we do, then?" Meora frowns, crossing her arms. "Well...it's either check everywhere we can, or wait for some kind of sign, if there ever is one..." Ammi relies with a grave tone. "That might take too long. We've no idea what is happening to her right now." Felixter growls in frustration. "Yet, I cannot think of anything else we can do..." "To make things worse, if Nimika and Natasha made their way here...their other sisters can't be far behind, save for Nelodine. Nelodine should be coming here soon anyway...but I think she said she was going to help the kids get ready while Ammi was away." Meora sighs. "And then there's also Kebaratsu's OTHER henchmen...the Demon King, his assassins, other annoying people I'd like to shoot into swiss cheese..." Outside, Nimika's black apparition form floats towards the remains of the zombie bodies outside. Most of them are torn apart and burnt to ash, but there are still precious few that seem to be whole, save for some wounds. She floats into one, and the body stands up. Slowly, Nimika's appearance takes over, and the body morphs into her own, complete with the same clothes and features. "Ah, that's better..." She sighs with relief, then touches her claws to the large purple jewel in the center of her necklace. It begins to glow. "...Nimika, is that you?" A dark voice emanates from the gem, as it acts as sort of a walkie-talkie. "Yes, Master." Nimika replies. "I suppose you've got our location already?" "I've been listening in the whole time." The voice chuckles. "Shava...an interesting world with a strange ruler, it seems..." "What are your next commands, Master?" Nimika asks. "...I'm sure you can think of something." The voice replies in such a tone that you can almost hear the evil smile behind it, and the necklace jewel stops glowing. Nimika takes a moment to think on these orders, and then her eyes light up with glee. "Yes, yes...of course." Nimika cackles quietly, and shapeshifts into someone else. In seconds, she's taken to form of Sephie, and is now posing as the missing cat demon girl. Of course, her eye color stays raspberry, but with a bit of magic, they turn blue like hers also. "This should be fun..." Nimika grins, going back through the doors into the hotel. "GET. YOUR. HANDS. OFF! Don't you people know ANYTHING about personal space?!" Natasha shrieks when Fedora-man puts his hand to her forehead, and struggles a bit. "WRONG!" Clancy shouts again, and shoots her in the side of the head with another muffin. Natasha growls at Clancy, but turns her attention back to Fedora-man. She glares at him as he speaks, then starts to smirk. "Me? Tell you anything?" Natasha laughs. "Oh, I do apologize, but I'm afraid I might not be of much use to you. See...I know nothing of the Master's true intentions. I only know that we've targeted Sephie's group for years, so she's the one we're off to kill. The Master NEVER tells anyone his true plans. Not even my dear sister Nimika, his most trusted and beloved worker. So, I suppose you're just out of luck." "....WRONG!" Amber cheers aloud, and shoots another waffle at Natasha's face. "STOP THAT! IT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE SENSE!" Natasha cries.

"Hell yeah, Michael-kun! Ikou!" Meora nods in agreement when the zombies have been taken care of. She turns and runs into the hotel. Ammi gives Michael a warm smile before turning and hurrying after Meora. Inside, she quickly tries to scent out anyone familiar. "I think Felixter is down that hall." Ammi says finally. Both of them run in that direction. "Man...I really hope some of our other friends get here soon." Meora comments on the way there. "So do I. If things are getting this bad here...I worry what they might be doing to our friends back home..." Ammi murmurs with concern. Nimika doesn't seem too worried or surprised by the appearance of the angry Fedora-man, until she suddenly feels her windpipe being strangled. Felixter uses the chance to get himself up, and race off to find his sister. Nimika watches with a smile. "He'll...never..." She croaks. Then, she goes limp. A black apparition with raspberry-colores eyes floats out of the body, and disappears through the ceiling with laughter. The body Fedora-man is choking turns into someone completely different from Nimika- a random demon woman she probably picked off of the street and killed for the body. Inside of the dining hall, Kiroketsu has turned completely grayish-white, and his eyes have closed. A few seconds later, his figure flickers like a hologram, and disappears altogether. "G-GYAAAAAAH! STOP THIS MADNESS! LET ME GO!" The screaming from outside behind the hotel is coming from the witch in green. The shadows stand beneath her, having tied her up in shadow ropes and dangled her upside down from a fairly high tree branch. Amber holds a large frying pan and some odd kind of gun, while Clancy holds onto a butcher knife bigger than his own head and a gun that looks the same as hers. "NO! You will play our game by our rules." Amber huffs. "W-what are the rules?!" Natasha hisses. "WHAT COLOR IS THE NUMBER H?" Amber demands. "W-what even-" Natasha begins. "WRONG!" Amber aims the gun at her, and it shoots a waffle with a face at her at a high speed. It flops onto the ground, and Natasha is left blinking it utter bewilderment. "No, no, Amber! We have to ask her about the Master's plans and all that junk, not our own questions!" Clancy says. "Here, watch me. NATTIE...DOES THE MASTER'S PLAN HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH WHAT COLOR THE NUMBER H IS?!" "I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION!" Natasha shouts back. "WRONG!" Clancy announces, and shoots her with his gun. His gun shoots muffins with faces at her instead.

"Ngh! Get your hands off of me!" Natasha continues to flap her wings wildly and caw in her raven form. She stops as soon as she's handed over to the shadows for interrogation. "Oh no...not these two..." She morphs herself back into her regular form, and takes a step back from the shadows "Heeeeey, it's Nattie!" Amber cheers. "Hi Nattie~!" "You want her to tell you something?" Clancy looks towards Fedora-man, then back at Natasha with an evil grin. "Are you hiding secrets, Nattie?" "You stay back! I know how to fight you off. I can create light easily enough. Look! The sun's out!" Natasha points towards the sun, hoping they'll look, and be distracted long enough for her to flee into the hotel as well, or maybe use her magic to create her own portal out. The shadows don't move, however. They only walk closer to her. "Oh Nattie, that's not going to work! The sun's rays are too wide-range. Only concentrated light scares us, tee-hee!" Amber giggles. "Come on, Nattie...why don't we play a game?" Clancy adopts an even creepier grin, as does Amber. They move in to grab her wrists with tendrils of shadow from their own bodies. "N-no! Stop! I demand you let me go, r-right this instant, you fools! The Master will send others! They'll come no matter what you do to me!" Natasha cries, trying to pull against them. All the shadows do is laugh... Ammi and Meora watch Michael use his powers to destroy most of the zombies in their wake, taking care to stay well out of his way. Ammi continues manipulating waves of flame to try and wipe out the rest of the horrid creatures. "Nice one, Michael-san!" Meora calls out to him with approval. Inside of the hotel, Nimika sits on the bed of an empty room, licking the blood from her claws. She waits there idly until Felixter flings open the door, enveloped by unmeasurable fury. It only gets worse when he doesn't see his sister anywhere. "What did you do with Sephie?!" Felixter hisses sharply. "I don't know...what DID I do with her, Felixter? There are so many things...so very many gruesome things I could have done. I mean, why would the Master decide to show you any mercy...much less me?" Nimika purrs tauntingly in reply. "I could have killed her and hid her carcass somewhere. I could have taken off her head and hid it in the fridge of the hotel's kitchen. I could have injected her with a new, incurable strain of Demon Rabies and let her go loose. I could have had her possessed by something. I could have fatally poisoned her and hid her somewhere else in the hotel. I could have sent her back off to the Demon Highlands, and she could be getting executed, brainwashed, tortured, or married to the Demon King right this very moment. Who knows? Maybe I'm wearing jewelry right now that holds her soul within right now..." Felixter starts to engage his hellion form, growing horns, bigger wings, and bigger claws. His eye becomes a sharper, icier blue. "You will tell me where she is. Right. Now." Felixter demands. "Ooh, scary...you think I can't do something similar?" Nimika cackles uncaringly. Felixter growles, and moves towards her to strike. The witch is too fast, even with the increased speed of the hellion form, and is choking him while holding him above the ground with her magic. "Silly little boy..." Nimika tsks. "It's not right to hit a girl, you know..." "You're...no girl..." Felixter retorts through his choking. "You're...a...HAG..." Nimika narrows her eyes. "Oh, is that right? Well then-" She suddenly brings him down hard onto the floor, and then slams him repeatedly back and forth from wall to wall of the room, leaving some cracks, but not making too much of a mess. She drops him onto the floor. "It's also not right to address a girl so rudely. My, and I thought you were supposed to be the more polite, gentlemanly twin..." Nimika tsks once more as Felixter struggles to pull himself up. When he gets close, she just slams him back onto the floor again with her magic, and laughs about it. "Nope...I'm not doin' so good...but it's not the beer..." Kiroketsu rasps. His color steadily drains, leaving him a much paler purple than he should be. He closes his eyes with a miserable moan.

(Now it gets serious. My replies could drastically become longer >:3 Oh how I love writing villains XD) Sephie's group turns to watch Michael boost his way up onto the roof. They're all stricken with sick surprise when they see who he's addressing. "She followed us here?!" Sephie cries. She knows she really shouldn't be surprised, but Nimika is never a welcome sight. Ever. "Honestly, I'm more surprised it took so long." Felixter mutters, narrowing his visible eye up at the witch. "Well, well...what do we have here? A new friend of Sephie's little rebel group to add to our target list?" Nimika seems quite entertained by the appearance of Michael up on the roof. "Perhaps I'll just have to make note of that, if you prove to be a real concern...but, for now, who I am doesn't really concern you. I'm here for the twins down there, not you." "G-GAH! Let go of me, you swine!" Natasha caws harshly, trying to use her own magic to free herself. "Are you serious? She couldn't even handle that simple of a task? Either my sister is completely incompetent, which is highly likely regardless, or Shava is much different of a world..." Nimika sighs as she glances over at her sister's situation. She doesn't do anything to help, though. "Well, it matters not. I was only sending her away so I could be alone with everyone. The Master already knows of this place and their location, just by us making it here..." "Hai? Well what are you gonna do, then?! It's just you against all of us anyway!" Meora calls up at the witch. "Oh, don't fret, dear. This battle between us certainly won't take long. It'll all be over soon." Nimika replies with a sickly sweet smile. "What do you mean...?" Sephie growls. "Well, the stage seems to already be set for me. All that really needs to happen for everything to get set in motion...is one...good...SHOVE!" In a flash, Nimika holds out her hand, and a force of violent red magic lashes out at Sephie's group on the ground, particularly Felixter and Meora. Felixter attempts to spread out his wings and stop himself, but by then it's too late. He and Meora have been sent flying into a particularly thick cluster of zombies on the field. "FELIXTER! MEORA!" Sephie cries. She's about to go after them, but Ammi holds her back, and then flies after them herself like a black and silver fireball. Nimika jumps back down onto the ground behind Sephie as soon as the coast is clear, pulls her back hard by the hail, and stabs her through the chest with a silver knife from her belt. "There we are. Well then, all of you other strangers have fun, then." Nimika laughs, grabbing up the dead girl, and rushing inside of the hotel. Ammi gets back to safe territory with Felixter and Meora. They look to be unharmed, besides being a bit bruised from the impact. Felixter immediately springs into action. "Ammi, Meora, you stay out here and keep what zombies are left at bay!" Felixter orders. "Hai, Felixter-kun!" Meora nods quickly. Ammi doesn't say anything, and just goes back to frying the undead. "Oooh, this is getting gooooood~!" Amber giggles, watching everything while sharing a bucket of popcorn with Clancy. "Who else do you think is gonna die before this is over?" Clancy asks through his munching. "I hope it gets even more bloody~!" Amber sings. Half-conscious on the dining hall floor, Kiroketsu is roused by a horrible pain in his chest. "W-what...?" He mumbles sleepily, but becomes alert as soon as he sees his chest start to bleed out a dark purple, and gets a feeling like he's fading. "Awwwww, Sephie, not agaaaaaain!" He sobs. Though he knows he's about to come back, he's still annoyed by having to die. With the time he's got left, he taps into Sephie's thoughts. "Oh, good. Nimika's here. Just what I wanted." He huffs.
