Nani yawned as she finished the last of her treat and then looked around the area she had been placed in. The wonders of humans and demons now a days.... she yawned to herself before stretching and starting to mildly walk about. They think they can contain a Cat of all things... she mused a bit grinning for a minute as she thought of both Nino and Matsu. Now I wonder how that other girl is doing..... Nani mused a bit more. The one with Aoi attached.... Emiko yes.... Stretching again, Nani proceeded to walk a fraction forwards before a black hole seemed to appear in front of her. Disappearing into it, she came out the other end to find the familiar girl who appeared completely in shock.
"What's wrong, child?" Nani mused aloud. However, it would come out as more of a 'meow' sound rather than an actual talking. Emiko appeared to look down and then stare for a minute.
"Nani?" she finally asked.
Ah yes such a pet name.... If Nino had not been the one to chose the name, I would not have accepted it... Nani sighed a bit and sat in front of the red haired girl before shaking her head and then staring at her. Sorry for the intrusion into your mind, my dear, but as a Cat, I cannot speak human very well.... Emiko seemed to suddenly recoil at hearing the thoughts in her own mind. The red haired girl looked around a fraction before looking back at Nani. Yes me... you know me as Nani, no?
"You're..." Emiko said staring down at the cat before her.
Indeed... I'm not just a cat as you can tell... I was wondering if you have seen Nino or Matsu... their spiritual pressure disappeared from my radar, earlier.... Nani mused. Emiko shook her head after another moment.
"Nino... disappeared with Sho somewhere..." Emiko finally answered aloud.
Ah as I thought.... Nani sighed outwards. This is worrisome then....Emiko do you sense the demonic energy around you?
"I...." Emiko said before suddenly tightening as though feeling it and realizing it. "What is going on?" she finally asked staring down sharply at Nani. "And who exactly are you if you're not just a cat?"
I've gone by many names in different life times.... the cat mused back. I actually prefer the name Nani, so if you would be kind enough to leave it that way. And as for the demon pressure... I can only guess that we have some high level demons in the building... and also.... Nani turned her head a bit. There is a fight not far off.... and Ame is there.... Nani looked back at Emiko. Come... we will figure this out together.... with that, Nani began walking out of the garage. Nani found that the girl was not following and seemed to sigh. You have a question?
"What do you know of what happened to Nino?" Emiko finally asked.
He is Yang and Yin was twisting their emotions.... Nani answered back. Now we must go... come.... with that, she continued on and began to hear Emiko's footsteps as well.
"Explain more..." Emiko said aloud as she followed. "I want to know right now..."
It is their secret not mine.... Nani answered back. I will keep their secrets just as I have kept every one of my previous master's secrets... I must tell you the hardest one involved Cleopatra.... Nani shook her head and continued walking. Now that poor master of mine was truly cursed with something else entirely..... A chuckle escaped the cat but the sound came out as more of a purr. Emiko said nothing but continued forwards with the cat.

Just as Aiba and Aisling had entered the generator room, Aiba felt the familiar chill run through him, and just then, he saw a shadow creature reach out towards Aisling. Seizing the girl and pulling her back away from the creature, Aiba managed to keep Aisling from the attacker. Dang.... another shadow..... Aiba thought to himself.
Stupid beast! Ookami yelled sharply before taking sudden form and tackling the creature straight to the ground. You will perish for your attack! With that, the Wolf tore the head off the beast with his teeth. Almost instantly, the shadow creature disappeared. The Wolf sighed a fraction before shaking his head in irritation. I will let nothing harm Aiba... I refuse it....
Dog.... the Bear mused his thoughts only to the Wolf who ignored them.
"Are you alright?" Aiba asked looking at Aisling who appeared startled.
Aisling nodded a fraction. "Yes thank you," she answered back. Aiba nodded and then watched as the Wolf walked back from finishing his work. The Wolf sighed a bit to himself.
Aiba looked back into the room once more. "Okay I think it's save....now how do we restart it?" he asked. Aisling appeared to look around the room and step inwards again.
"Um..." Aisling said as both drew closer to the machine. "It looks like... wait what is this?" Aisling asked reaching out and taking hold of a metal piece that looked obscurely lodged in the generator. Aiba blinked in confusion.
"It doesn't look like... it should be there at all...." he finally said.
"That's what I'm thinking too..." Aisling answered back. "Let's get the piece out." With that, both took hold of the rather long metal piece and pulled it outwards. Almost instantly, the roar of the generator began, and the lights flickered a bit before starting to turn completely on once more. Aiba sighed outwards and rubbed the back of his head.
"Well that wasn't too hard," he grinned a bit. "But it looks like someone willingly did this...." His head shook a bit as though he were unsure of what to make of it.
"And there was a shadow creature guarding the generator..." Ailsing pointed out. Aiba nodded a bit. Both turned and stared at the generator a moment watching it work. Suddenly Aiba tensed again and pulled Aisling out of the way. However, in that minute, whatever he had seen was suddenly gone. The dark haired boy blinked a fraction. "Aiba? I... didn't see anything..Did you see something just now?" Aisling said aloud. Aiba shook his head a bit.
"It was nothing...." he finally answered back. However, in the back of his mind, the dark haired boy debated whether or not he had actually seen that nothing. "Come on... let's get back upstairs..." Aiba said aloud. Aisling nodded, and Ookami sighed outwards before disappearing into Aiba's ring again.

"Heh, never thought you were! Actually, I probably deserved that," the demon finished. Sho just stared downwards darkly. There is too much at stake here for such things.... he thought to himself strangely finding himself far more tired than he had been previously. At that point, Sho wanted to take a nap or something of the like. He shoved this thought form his mind.
"Don't hurt him! H-he's not bad!" a girl had said causing Sho to look at her. A summoner..... he thought to himself calmly. "I'm m-mean, he's a demon and all, but... he hasn't hurt anyone!" the girl had finished. Sho just sighed outwards before standing fully and crossing his arms.
"You all needn't worry, that Matsu guy already made his threat to me. He didn't seem like he was messing around," Ohno heard the demon say aloud and simply sighed to himself. If he saw Matsu in the face of when he was slipping... he probably got one damn talking to.... Sho closed his eyes upon thinking on this. "I'm not hurting anyone." Sho didn't say anything but seemed to simply meditate now.
Suddenly the lights flickered back on. Ohno let out a light laugh and worked a smirk onto his face. "Ok I won the bet on the lights everyone pay up," he grinned. Sho resisted the urge to smack his face. Aine and Mei Rin blinked in unison. Merrick appeared for a moment to seriously consider this. Sephira was now rummaging around in her pockets for money until Edanial smacked his forehead and said something to the effect of 'I think he's joking'. Both the girl who appeared to be clasping something and the demon who appeared her butler behind her simply appeared to be watching the scene as extra spectators.
"I'm guessing someone got the generators working," Aine mused a bit to herself. Mei Rin looked at the other angel in confusion for a moment before receiving a smile. "Don't worry about it, Mei Rin," Aine answered back. The younger angel simply nodded a bit to herself.
"I wonder what caused the lights to go out in the first place..." Merrick said aloud, and Mei caught sight of Aine giving the man a cold stare.
"Who knows," Ohno mused lightly back with a grin. Suddenly it hit the red haired man that he hadn't seen Ame in quite some time. "Has anyone seem Ame?" he asked after another moment. Mei Rin appeared to blink and shake her head. The red haired man nodded a bit to himself feeling somewhat worried right then and there. She can usually take care of herself though.... he thought to himself after another moment.
"I need to get back to work," Sho finally sighed outwards. "Ohno, you're the people person. Keep an eye on those four." Sho made a motion to both sets of girls and demons. Ohno laughed lightly before nodding a bit to himself. "I'll be back later," Sho finished. "Don't do anything stupid."
"Wouldn't dream of it," Ohno grinned back watching Sho Sakurai walk away right then and there.
"So who wants to play Twister?" Ohno grinned. Mei Rin blinked.
"Oh that sounds like fun!" Sephira's voice suddenly called. "Come on E-kun let's play Twister!"
"A game?" the girl standing not far off appeared to blink a fraction as though not expecting it.
"Yep! Come on let's play~" Ohno laughed lightly.
