Jemuzu: There's a needle in the haystack Ai... I'm gonna find it. I don't care how long it takes... Besides... This is the last time.

ica:*smiles and in psy* a.k can you hear me?

Ai: last time for what?

Jemuzu: I'm retiring... I'm tired of all this Ai... This... Idk, drama... I wanna be with you. I just wanna live a happy life with you, Yakusoku... A.K., Sylvia, and Kyle if they choose to come too... But... I wanna actually be with you... I wanna go to bed thinking of what kind of fun we can have the next day... Instead of how I'm gonna have to stop the next appocalypse...

Arekkusu K.: Yeah Ica... What is it?

Ai: yes... i suppose i do too. but i would never take anything that we've been through back... i would do it all over again... because every fight that we ever fought brought us closer together... one even gave us a son.

ica:are you ok i'm starting to worry about you

Arekkusu K.: Yeah... I'm with Alice.

Jemuzu: And I'd like us to one day... Maybe have another...

(sorry 4 the late reply, but this vid got my attention. Gomen...)

Ai: yeah that would be nice too...

(I'm sorry I was gone all day! I was at japantown and then I went bike riding with my mom and it took forever to get home. Sorry!)
Echo grins and pulls out two knives, stabbing Abyss and Oz in the back. The same wound appears on Alice's back and blood starts seeping through her dress.
Alice: What the hell..?
Oz: Damn it...
Echo: *chuckles* Even though your a Baskerville you still trust to easily. I told you 'Echo is only an echo of noise'
Abyss: Zwei...Why do you keep coming back?
Zwei/Echo: I have no need to answer that.
Echo/Zwei jumps up, using the trees to get to the roof of the manor.

Jemuzu: Yeah... It would be... *kicks down another door*

inside this room, there is an operation table and surgical tools.
Ai: this is it...

Jemuzu: Let's take a look around... (starts looking in cabinets and lockers, wherever organs could be hidden.)

Kyle: Dammit! (chases Echo/Zwei)
Scorpion: (looks up) Someone's on the roof.

Ai opens the biggest cupboard. it is filled with hearts.
Ai: before they become a hybrid you need to get rid of their heart. how many of the angels hybrids are there? there are hundreds of hearts here. so which one is mine...?

Echo/Zwei runs toward Kyle, her arm turning into a blade and stabs him in the stomach then pulls it back violently, jumping back.
Echo/Zwei: Now, now Datenshi, no need to be so rude.
Abyss goes to the roof and Echo/Zwei smirks at her then takes out a knife.
Echo/Zwei: I wonder how many of these it will take to kill you two?

Jemuzu: I'm taking all of them. I'm returning each one to who it belongs to... (closses his eyes and hovers his hand over the hearts and they all start to beat.) Starting with yours...

Kyle shoots feathers at Echo/Zwei

Ai: thank you... i want to be able to feel my love for you again.

Jemuzu: *eyes still closed picks up Ai's heart and it starts to glow, it then flies in a blast into Ai's chest.. He opens his eyes* Ai...

molly:*looks up and eyes glow red and in psy* never mind dad hold on to them a little longer *looks at hanzo* i better tell ica to hide arekkusu III

Ai: *smiles* i can smile again... i feel emotions again.

Echo/Zwei jumps out of the way and runs at Abyss, slashing her then throwing a knife at Kyle.

Alice: Something must have happened to Oz....

Kyle deflects the blades harmlessly away.

Jemuzu: How do you feel? I mean, physically too, are you alright?

Ai: yes... i feel much better. now to deliver every one else's hearts back to them.

Jemuzu: Right... I know just where to start... (bags up the hearts and brings Ai back to hell with him to where he left Yakusoku and the others)

Ai: Yakusoku first...? *walks over to him* Yakusoku?
Yakusoku doesn't move.

Echo/Zwei: Really now...Your barely fighting back. Thats no fun....*smiles* Ah! How about I bring back Dulldum?
Strings appear all around Kyle, Abyss and Echo/Zwei.
Echo/Zwei: My little chains took so long to recover, but it's worth the wait.

ica:*looks up and turn's into articuno and in psy* quickly hide

Jemuzu: I can't yet, upon Yakusoku's request. I'm to bring Lily back first.

Ai looks at Lily. Lily is emotionless as well and she isn't moving.
Ai: they are all the same... they don't move at all.

molly:*sees something fall from the siling and lets out a big bird like screech and quickly grabs hanzo's arm*

Jemuzu: They have no heart... *gives Lily her heart*
Scorpion: Get downstairs! *goes to the roof*

Echo/Zwei: *chuckles* Oh look, Scorpion came to play~!
The strings wrap around Scorpion, making it so he can't move.

as soon as she gets her heart back, Lily looks around.
Lily: i'm not in her mind anymore... where exactly am i...? *sees Jemuzu* hello.

Jemuzu: It works... *gives Yakusoku his heart*

Yakusoku: *sits up* my head hurts... *looks around and sees Lily* your okay...
Lily: yeah... i'm fine.

Abyss tries stepping toward Echo/Zwei, but the strings cut her every time she moves.

Hearing what sounds like combat, Aether phases out of material existence and re-materializes in front of Echo/Zwei.

Jemuzu gives everyone else their heart back.

Echo/Zwei: Your that guy from before...
The strings also wrap around Aether, making it so he can't move.

Yakusoku: dad... *sees Ai* you... so you still going to push us aside just because you don't remember us?!
Ai: Yakusoku... *hugs him* i'll never do that again...

Jemuzu: Keeps his eyes on everyone to see how they react.

A spear rips through Echo/Zwei's shoulder.
Scorpion: GET OVER HERE!!! *pulls her towards the strings*

Madison: (to Jemuzu) why did i have to be saved by you? i hate you...
a Light Angel with long blonde hair and icy blue eyes stands up.
Lily: *sees her* Mina!
Mina: hello lily... it's been a long time.
Lily: i missed you...
Mina: i missed you too, little sister. (turns to Jemuzu) thank you, Jemuzu... but not for saving me, for saving Mourner. you granted her wish and ours... to be free.

Jemuzu: Don't mention it.

Echo/Zwei does not stop Scorpion and when she gets to the strings they move out of her way.
Echo/Zwei: *grins* Are you still upset I used your son and wife like that? *in Yasahono's voice* "You let me die Hanzo"

Mina: i hope to see you again... perhaps soon.
all of the angels besides Yakusoku and Lily disappear.

molly:*goes down stairs and un sheths her blade just in case and in her mind* please be careful hanzo

Hanzo: (pulls off his mask and his head turns into a firey skull)

Echo/Zwei: *chuckles* *sarcasticly* Scary.
Abyss, despite the strings cutting her, runs through them --so she only gets minor injuries-- toward Echo/Zwei.

ica:*in psy* quickly get under my wing

Scorpion spits flames at Echo/Zwei.

(gonna hit the hay, ttyt 'night)
