~as the swords clashed, she too jumped back, pretty impressed actually. misako's rank WAS a lot lower than hers too.~ "not bad, but not good enough either." ~she smirked.~ "what happened to your power? you're so much weaker from what i remember." ~she mumbled evilly. she just saw mariko take her misako's body, but she didn't and doesn't know they're 2 different people/personalities or even sides.~ "no matter, i'll just finish off the girl first then." ~she grinned as she looked over to chinatsu before charging for her this time.~
*seeing Misako disappear, and Chinatsu run after her, Mikaru let out an angered growl. hiding in the shadows, the followed them. stopping, she saw a demon who attacked misako, then went straight for Chinatsu. what really confused her, was what kikimi had said.* "mariko? ...what the heck is that person talking about?"
*Walking throughout Ningenkai was none other than the feared Nanami. she was walking on the sidewalk, trying to find people to hurt so she could entertain herself. she was just finished with a person, so her hands were covered in blood. she licked her fingers with a grin on her face. as she continued to walk, she suddenly stopped seeing a few others before her. 2 humans, another hidden, and another which seemed to be a demon. Looks like she will have fun today!*
::As Misako saw her aim for Chinatsu, she wanted to hastily block the attack. However, she abruptly stopped when she felt another presence... and she knew exactly who it was.:: 'Mikaru...' ::She thought to herself. And now, not too far away from them was another girl. She looked so young, but there was blood covered all over her.:: "Mikaru, get out of here..." ::She mumbled to herself, knowing that Mikaru was a lot weaker than she was, and the enemy she previously fought was a lot stronger.::

*And so the girl saw Misako looking her way. looks like that who she was going to go after now. She soon giggled a low and creepy giggle.* "Oh, will you be my entertainment?" *Then she giggled again* "Please, dont die as quickly as all the others..." *She then giggled once again before stepping forward her hands becoming surrounded by spiritual energy.* "This will be fun..."
When Chinatsu saw that she was charging towards her, she quickly jumped into the tree, before the girl had the chance to hit her...Chinatsu looked at her arm and noticed that she had a smal cut...''she's fast..." Chinatsu thought to her self. She then maked a big jump landing besides Misako, thinking that she would be the only person that could trust at that moment....
::Misako turned her head over to look at Chinatsu in surprise. She didn't actually think Chinatsu was able to jump out of a tree landing perfectly. This gave Misako the idea of how Chinatsu wasn't a full human, but she didn't bother asking about that.:: "Are you alright?" ::She quickly asked before turning her head back to Nanami who had just spoken. It didn't take her long to realize the spiritual energy surrounding her hands.:: "That girl seems surprisingly strong for someone her age..." ::She mumbled under her breath.::

"I'm fine...but I'd like to know what's going on here..." Answer Chinatsu before her eyes widened when she saw another young girl also covered in blood not to far from them. "Do you know this girls?" Ask Chinatsu looking at Misako with a kinda angry face....
"I would like to know the same thing..." ::Misako replied, then paused for a moment after hearing the second question.:: "I'm afraid I don't. However..." ::She then glanced over towards Kikimi. Kikimi kept saying how she knew Misako's demon form, although Misako didn't know her at all. Misako debated if she she should tell Chinatsu that, but then decided not to.:: "It would be for the best if we didn't know them... wouldn't you agree?" ::She quickly asked, shooting Chinatsu with a quick smile before having it fade away, her serious look returning to her.::

~as chinatsu jumped out of the way, kikimi just stood still as she heard the two speak. first low chuckles could be heard, then the same roaring laughter as before. she then turned over to look at the two, her small eyes full of hatred for them both.~ "oh what a shame, mariko... and here i was hoping that you would consider being my former ally again." ~she said once again sarcastically before shrugging. it was then without warning when her hair suddenly lunged towards the two. every strand of her hair was like a deadly whip now.~
"My name is Misako, not Mariko. I was never your ally, and I never will be." ::She confirmed calmly, yet anger was evident. Then her eyes suddenly narrowed as she saw the hair lunge towards her. Having the sword in her hand dissolve and disappear, she hastily pulled the ribbon out of her hair. Once again, she channeled her spirit energy through it and suddenly it became a whip similar to Kikimi's. Using that, she was able to deflect the attack, but then she quickly turned over to Chinatsu concerned.::

*Mikaru noticed the other girl standing not too far away from them, but her attention was suddenly drawn away as she saw Kikimi attack Misako and Chinatsu. pulling out her trusty katana from her sleeve, she suddenly shot out like a bullet. good thing Misako was able to block the attack, and then from nowhere... Mikaru appeared in front of Chinatsu blocking the attack with her unsheathed katana. due to the level difference she was nearly knocked over by the force, but she managed to catch herself.* what the heck are you 2 doing?! *she asked enraged.* Misako don't listen to what that wretched demon has to say- she's just trying to trick you!
"tsk, what an annoyance... i'll get rid of all of you!" ~she shouted out. it wasn't long before alot more strands of her hair started flying towards the three of them at a rapid speed.~
*Standing there with an innocent look on her face, yet a twisted evil in her eyes Nanami skipped forward standing beside Kikimi.* "Don't kill them all, please save one for me... I won't get a chance to play with any of them." *She mumbled in a whiny kinda tone. It was weird but she knew she wasnt a match for Kikimu so she didnt even bother attacking her.*
~turning over to look at the little girl, kikimi smirked while being able to continue the attacks at the same time. she doesn't mind a little help... her goal WAS to kill all HUMANS wasn't it? suddenly she stopped the attacks and then just looked at the girl.~ "go on, knock yourself out."
Every one was fighting...Chinatsu was geting really angry, and sudenlly her demon form tooked over giveing her the posibility to use her powers. She jumped into the air creating a tornado of flowers and pointing it at Kikimi
::Misako continued to evade and deflect the attacks, that was until Kikimi suddenly stopped. What startled her, was Chinatsu's demon form. That definitely wasn't something Misako was expecting. Her emotions of course didn't show. It was nice to know that Chinatsu would be able to defend herself. Turning her head to look at Mikaru, her eyes suddenly narrowed with a bit of sadness in them.:: "Mikaru, you... don't truly know me." ::She mumbled under her breath, not sure if Mikaru could hear her or not.::

~kikimi was impressed by the sudden change chinatsu made. continuing to smirk evilly, she jumped back while slashing at the tornado with some of her spirit energy in the sword, hoping then it would disappear.~ "so you are my opponent?" ~she questioned, her body shaking with excitement.~
*Nanami stepped forward, towards Misako, her hands still glowing with the spirit energy. She felt that Mikaru was too weak for her to "play with" so she chose Misako instead. She licked the blood off her hands once more and then let out a twisted smile* "Come, play with me! ...Please don't die as quickly as the others though... I will cry." *She said innocently, yet mysteriously*
'I don't sense any demonic energy coming from this little girl.... but...' ::Misako thought to herself. She wasn't able to get too far in her thoughts though.:: "What are you saying?..." ::She asked the girl, while remaining cautious.::

"I WANT TO PLAY... NOW!!" *She shouted out angrily almost as if shes having a tantrum* "heheheheh... this other person I was playign with died too quickly... I ripped his heart out and he just kept screaming and screaming. Then he died... and I was sad... but now I have someone new to play with!" *She then giggled while walking closer to her now*
"Y-you what...?" ::Misako asked, a bit shocked by what the girl said. That was one of the most sick and twisted things she has ever heard. As the girl stepped closer, Misako began backing up. It wasn't due to fear, but rather... she didn't like fighting kids.:: "What is the reason for your antics?" ::She questioned her rather harshly.::

"Regret is a different beast when you live for centuries." -Kurama
"Why..." *Nanami tilted her head to the side* "Isn't it fun?" *Right when she was done talking she suddenly sped towards Misako and tried slicing through her shoulder with her hand. Even if she didnt hit, the energy infused would be so strong it would be able to do damage from a few feet away*
[hope you don't mind if I use some color too...^^"] Chinatsu was kinda shocked when she saw that Kikimi survived her tornado. Her eyes started to narrow and she thought to her self "she is more powerful than me, and my tornado it's my only ability besides my great flexibility..." Chinatsu tryed again, and jumped into the air creating two smal tormados. "...hope this will work..." takeing one big breath before pointing them at Kikimi.
[Of course I don't mind! ^^] "It's-..." ::Once again, Misako wasn't able to finish, since she saw Nanami race straight towards her. She managed to jump back before Nanami reached her, but due to the strong impact of it, she still managed to get injured. Wincing a bit, Misako looked at her shoulder seeing a slash on it.:: 'How was she able to get me...?' ::She questioned herself before glaring back at Nanami.::

(hope you don't mind if i use colors too then!) ~as chinatsu tried the same attack, kikimi would use two strands of her hair as a whip, slashing it at the tornado once again hoping it would disperse once again.~ "now please don't tell me that's the best you can do... i was just getting into this." ~she said while smirking almost as if she was teasing her. she always loved toying with her opponents before she killed them. out of nowhere, her whiplike hair aimed a slash straight for chinatsu. if it were to hit though, it wouldn't kill her. she did that intentionally.~
(Yaaayyy colors!) *Seeing how she managed to hit Misako she squealed out with joy* "I GOT YOU!!" *she giggled insanely before calming down. she was actually having fun* "And you didnt die either, Im so happy!!" *Her demonlike red eyes never left Misako for a moment, she was too involved with her little "death game". After that she once again charged for Misako aiming for the same spot, this time using 2 hands instead of one*
Chinatsu saw the strands comeing right at her but didn't had time to get out of the way, so she got hit and wounded pretty bad...she felt on the ground and tryed to get up, thinking that Kikimi was much powerful than her and if her tornados didn't work she didn't stand a chance with her...she then got an idea and her face brithen up
::As Misako saw the girl charge straight towards her again, this time she jumped back once again as soon as she saw the girl move, so she managed not to get hit. She snapped her whip towards Nanami, but missed on purpose. That was just supposed to have been a warning shot. From the corner of her eyes, she was able to see Chinatsu. Turning around to look at her, Misako's eyes widened:: "Chinatsu!" ::She shouted out, forgetting about Nanami for a split second.::

*When Nanami saw the whip fly towards her she jumped back with fear* "why would you attack me...?" *She asked in a hurt tone of voice. as soon as she saw Misako suddenly turn, that was her chance! Rushing towards Misako her hand glew with spiritual energy and she aimed a powerful strike for Misakos stomach*
"come on, get up." ~the demon taunted with her usual smirk. she could easily- or so she thinks- kill chinatsu now, but she decided not to. she gets her pleasure from torturing other people. ah yeh she was definitely a sadist. her eyes narrowed with suspicion as she saw chinatsu's face brighten.~ =what is she thinking?= ~kikimi thought to herself.~
Chinatsu got up and with a careless smile her all body started glowing with spiritual energy...Suddenly, her eyes narrowed and she put her hands on the ground creating a tornado under the ground meant to go straight twoards Kikimi. "You're finish..." sayd Chinatsu hopeing that this will defeat her
~seeing how chinatsu stood up while having a careless smile, kikimi immediately knew that she was up to something. being extremely cautious, when she saw chinatsu's body glow with spiritual energy, she immediately jumped back right when the tornado appeared from underground. although she did this, the tornado still managed to cut a bit of her leg. looking down, her eyes narrowed but a roaring laughter echoed throughout the area.~
::Seeing how Chinatsu seemed alright, the minute Misako turned back over to face Nanami, a sudden pain occured in her stomach. Her eyes widened with the pain she felt, and as she slowly looked down, sure enough she was hit by Nanami's attack.:: "How... reckless of me..." ::She muttered. As she spoke, her hand slowly reached up for Nanami's wrist, hoping to grasp it to keep her in place. She tried her best to ignore the pain, and remain on her two feet::

*She managed to blow another hit! oh how happy she was!* "You should know to never turn your back like that..." *She whispered in Misako's ear in an eerily creepy voice. Just as soon as she was about her pull her hand out, Misako grabbed her wirst. Glaring angrily at her she tried jerking away* "LET ME GO!!" *She whined. Although she was evil, shes only a CHILD still*
(Gosh I missed alot ...and yay for colors! xD) MISAKO! *Mikaru cried out seeing her get hit. she wasn't paying attention to anything/anything else besides Misako and Nanami. she gave a death glare at Nanami, and pointed her unsheathed katana towards her* You will regret the day you were ever born!! *She scowled before charging towards Nanami trying to slash at her* (I hope black isn't too hard for all of you to read xD ...)
(Fine for me :DD!) *Nanami saw Mikaru charge towards her. Her eyes narrowed, feeling anger for the first time. Surrounding her other hand with spirit energy, she was able to grab Mikarus sword and shove her back hoping it was at least a few feet* "DONT RUIN MY GAME!!" *She shouted out angrily before spirit energy surrounded her and the wind picked around her, shoving Misako away in the process*
*And sure enough she was shoved back. Landing on her feet she glared at Nanami.. obviously she was no match* Why you no good little... *She growled feeling pretty irritated about now*
"Misako!!..." yelled Chinatsu. "...she got hurt because of me... Chinatsu thought. Her eyes narrowed looking with anger at Nanami. She almost forgot about Kikimi, and wanted to go to Misako to see if she's all right and need any help.
::As the strong wind knocked Misako back, she managed to remain on her feet, although not for long. Falling to one knee, she placed her hand over her stomach wound, wincing. A tiny of icy blue flashed in her eyes for a split second when she heard Chinatsu and Mikaru.:: "I'm fine... don't... worry about me." ::She stated, trying her best to sound normal. She managed to get back up, now taking Nanami seriously.::

*And little Nanami would giggle evilly, still having the time of her life* "So your name is Misako?" *She would giggle some more* "You... FINE?" *Turning over to look at Chinatsu she curtsied in a mannerly way* "Dont worry, once Im finished with her, youre next!" *She cried out joyfully*
~seeing how chinatsu turned her back, kikimi let out a wicked grin. still having her materialized sword in her hand, she ran straight for chinatsu, hoping to stab at least some part of her body. all this time she's been going easy, she doesn't want her opponents to die TOO fast now.~
::Glaring at Nanami now, Misako clenched her teeth.:: "I beg to differ!" ::She shouted. It was right after when she lunged her whip towards Nanami's shoulder, slicing downwards, hoping to leave at least some type of huge gash. And if she were to hit, before she would cut down completely, she pulled her whip out. She of course didn't want to kill the child, but rather just injure her to some extent.::

*Before careless Nanami even had a chance to turn around, she was suddenly hit in her shoulder. As Misako sliced down she shouted out in pain. Then suddenly Misako removed the whip which surprised her, but she was definitely lucky. Grabbing her shoulder in pain, it wasnt long before she bursted out in tears falling to her knees* "I HATE YOU!!!" *She shouted through her sobs* "Ow ow ow...! ...Help...!" *She continued to cry. Looks like her more childish innocent side was beginning to show... just a bit*
As Chinatsu turned, she saw Kikimi chargeing right at her. Before she had a chance to move out of the way, she felt a terible pain in her rib, and her eyes narrowed as she looked at her wound. She grabed Kikimis sword and pulled it out of her. Chinatsu lost a lot of blood and was very weakened.
::Misako blinked in surprise as she saw Nanami break out in tears. As she glanced over her shoulder, a small, inaudible gasp escaped her lips.:: "C-Chinatsu...!" ::Misako shouted. Trying to run over to Chinatsu, her stomach wound would stop her, and she once again fell on one knee. She winced, while her ribbon whip returned to normal. Since she saw how Nanami was injured, she didn't think that Nanami would be able to get up for a while, so she decided to tie her ribbon back in her hair before glaring at Kikimi.::

~seeing how she hit chinatsu, kimi shook with joy. seems like everyone was injured now except her and mikaru, but she could take mikaru... or so she thinks. everyone only got hit since they had their backs turned... not something you'd wanna do in a battle.~ "how does it feel?" ~she ****ed her head to the side with a smirk and questioned her. deciding to do something new for a change... she glanced over to misako.~ "shame on you, for hitting an innocent child like that. is it because she's different from all the rest? ...are you going to end up betraying your other friends like what you did to me... mariko?" ~she asked while hiding the anger.~
::Misako's eyes immediately widened, now feeling a bit guilty for what she's done to Nanami. Her eyes narrowed right after hearing Kikimi. She already had enough physical pain, and now Kikimi was making things much worst by bringing emotional pain in the process. Misako's hues flashed a tint of icy blue once again, but this time it lasted longer than the last.::"Get away before I kill you." ::She growled, obviously indignant. That was none other than her demon form which took over just a little bit.::::Right after, Misako's hues returned to normal, and didn't remember what just happened at that second. She just continued to glare at Kikimi.::

~kikimi immediately knew mariko's voice. as soon as misako returned to normal though, kikimi hues widened in a sorta psychotic way. suddenly appearing in back of misako, she bent over misako's shoulder placing her cheek against misako's.~ "getting angry now?" ~she asked mysteriously, enjoying herself.~
::Misako's eyes instantly widened when she felt kikimi's cheek pressed against hers. In an instant, she spun around aiming a punch for Kikimi, hoping she would get back, and keep her distance. She didn't say a word though, but rather her teeth were once again clenched and a look of hatred... or even fear flared up in her eyes. She was pretty much speechless,, possibly due to her fear of Kikimi.::
