Again, Pendragon hesitated before answering. Things were being said that he didn't expect, that didn't make sense within his rules. People didn't change. Suzume was changing. He would just have to adapt..
"Your not yourself..." He said weakly. "You don't know what your saying. He had to look away, down at the ground instead of her. "The woman I fell in love with wouldn't give in...." Pen said quietly, half hoping nobody would hear. He looked back to see her reaction, there was something different about his expression. The fight had gone out of him, he was just like everybody else. No longer that powerful person filled with confidence...
Just like everyone else... Broken.

Suzume looked at him with sadness in her eyes, she leaned foreward and kissed him softly on his cheek, "Please understand... I'm not doing this to hurt you. I'm doing this to survive, please come with me." She said as she stepped away. Suzume had made her descision, she was going to press on and live, not a single shard of doubt shined in her eye and she walked over towards Lucifer, "Please Pendragon, it's for the best." She nodded, her voice still calm and serene.
The mysterious figure in the murky black waters opened it's mouth as if to say something but nothing came out and instead a current of the sticky liquid forced it'self down her throat and the figure shook with the pain of the force and convulsed terribly, eyes narrowed from the sickening feeling of the liquid crawling through it's system. It's hands clutched around it's own neck as if trying to release a chokehold, defiantly trying to speak at the same time, fighting. Whoever- or whatever this creature was, it seemed to have the will to fight that Suzume had lost. The creature grew smaller, oddly enough and it continued thrashing about, it's appearance less human now and it was the same dark hue as the water, nearly impossible to make out the difference from it and the liquid as if they were one.

((I'm gonna take a wild guess that the thing in the wall is the real Suzume...))
When Suzume moved closer Pendragon turned away once more. He didn't stop the kiss, but refused to lock eyes with her. "Best... for who?" He asked softly, still looking away. By giving in, Suzume would save herself. But what about everybody else? No, No, No. Lucifer needed to be stopped.
"I won't...." Pen said very quietly, shaking his head slightly. Ever so slightly. "I won't...." He repeated. "I..." In some ways, he felt as if he was being forced to choose between Suzume and the lives of many.... And the scales of his decision were so very tipped to one side...

(I tried to hint it as much as possible... but then comes the question of... who's the OTHER Suzume)
Suzume looked up at Pendragon sadly, "Well then you'll be joining HER soon enough." she said, her voice still eerily calm, Lucifer dissapeared and Suzume smirked, "I just need to clear you out of her vessel and then me and Ouwashi can finally proceed with destroying this pathetic world..." she crossed her arms and smirked. This certainly WASN'T Suzume in any sense of the name.
In reality, the creature trapped outside the safety of the clear zone was the real Suzume who was wrapped in her fox form for protection as she was pulled by the liquid. They weren't barriers to her mind, it was her mind that she was trapped in- a small portion was saved from Ouwashi and it was closed off from her now. She tried to keep from closing her eyes as she drifted into the darkness as a silohuette in the deep ebon sea and she continued drifting despite how she tried to get back towards the safety where she knew people were like Tsubame and Pendragon... and that traiter she saved. She shook her head and she continued working her way to try to get closer to them so perhaps they could help her. She knew there were things she could handle on her own and many things that she couldn't and needed help with and she was realizing that she wasn't going to be able to gain her own freedom by herself- it wasn't that simple.
Tsubame and Ouwashi continued with thier battle, Ouwashi was finally being driven back and Tsubame needed to focus so as to not mess up terribly and lose the ground she'd worked so hard to gain in the fight.

((Okay, I know I'm not supposed to post pure ooc, but I'm confused. I'm a freaking idiot when it comes to this stuff. I'm new to roleplaying as well, so I've never done this sort of thing. Laugh all you want, but please help me. By the way, Suzume, I'll post roleplaying stuff when someone helps me. ^^))

((Okay, purple posts are in Suzume's head... so it's kinda a completely different RP, there are TWO RPs going on here technically. You can disreguard the purple posts or parts of posts. They ARE interesting, though. Pleasure reading for the rest of us. Simple. Purple text= roleplay of inside Suzume's head and exclusive RP between Pendragon and I, ask to join. Characters in this RP are: Pendragon, Suzume (as well as her alter-egos Tsubame and Ouwashi), Lucifer, and The Imposter. (The imposter will be revealed soon) Plain text= What's going on in reality, this includes the battle. Ouwashi shows up in both RPs because she has a presense in her mind and she's in controll of Suzume's body and will attempt in the art of ass-kickery of you all. The concept of this fight is to defeat Takami and Ouwashi without actually killing them. Perhaps disabling them in some way. For a more full idea on what's going on, try reading the roleplay! ^^ It's like a story! Trust me. The earlier you start to get what's going on, the easier it'll be later on and this plot is worth it! This is going to end part 1. There'll be a break in between and part 2 will commense. (I'll inform you of both of these times!) Thanks for the question, I'd rather explain it to you guys than have everyone not understand! )

Darishan regarded the girl's strange appearance. He wasn't one to be unobservant, and she surely hadn't been anywhere near him a moment before. Deciding it was really her business of whether she preferred materializing over walking, he put it out of his mind.
"Who are you?" he asked in his monotone, not taking the necklace. Not to be rude, but he was cautiously suspicious of people offering help. A necklace did not really seem that helpful by itself anyway, though it could be enchanted.

"My name is Calida, I was asked to keep you safe." She said with a smile and a demure nod to Darishan. "The necklace will protect you." she said as she offered it to the necromancer again with a kind smile. Her voice wasn't exactly pressing for him to take it, just a kind tone and manner- it's hard to tell exactly what was going on here.
Israfel stepped out of the way of Duemi and Lyra's attacks with a somewhat unhappy expression on his face, "I can see that you're glad to have the chance to 'talk' with me again- and so soon!" he said with sarcasm, his ebon hair lilted over his golden orange/yellow eyes as he smiled, an even more sarcastic smile towards the leopard and girl in cheetah form. The electricity that Duemi sent towards him seemed to stop yet inches from his clothing and he didn't really seem to notice, Israfel hadn't even taken the time to take out his knuckledusters- it would be a shame to scar the skin of such a pristine body, that would be a shame- it really would!

Hmmm... Electriy isn't working.. Hmmm... Duemi thought, seeing that the electricity wasn't even hitting him. So, she modified the plan and put her palm on Israfel's chest and sent the electricity into his body directly. With her other hand she tried to put Zephyrsprit back away but cut her finger. She shook her hand and managed to put the curved blade back into its sheath.
MEANWHILE
A pearl colored dragon stood at the entrance of a cave, high in the mountains. Her wings where tucked in tightly against her body and the wind was picking up. But as Duemi's blood fell into the blade of Zephyrspirit, its homing beacon was activated, the first time in about five years. The dragon now knew how to get to Duemi. She had been trying to find her for five years. Duemi was the only burden left from her past that needed to be ridden of. It had taken this long for blood to get Zephyrspirit, but now that it had, the dragon wasted no time getting there. She jumped off the cliff into the full force of the storm heading to Twilight Moon Academy.

Israfel frowned, "Okay, this all didn't work out quite how I thought it would..." he said as Duemi's hand touched his chest and he placed his hand on top of hers, "But if you say you're sorry, I might overlook your hostility." He said with a smile as he leaned foreward and landed a kiss on Duemi's lips. Darkness wrapped around Duemi's hand and cancelled out the electricity- the obvious answer to his previous problems with the electric based attacks of the lovely Momojiri.
Neko finished his summon and his writings began to glow a soft golden hue, a creature began to materialize above the symbol and to be honest it was quite the odd beast, it's maw filled with teeth, walking on two legs as if it were a sauropod and posessed a long tail, tipped with an almost steel barbed dagger, large metallic claws on it's reptilian feet and it's eyes are a dark blue color like early sunrise. It snarled and sticky saliva was revealed on it's teeth.
"I expected something a little better..." the raven commented.
"I think I messed up somewhere." Neko said in response as he looked at the summon.
"Oh really?" the raven cawed with heavy sarcasm.
"Oh creature resurrect to life anew, complete your purpose so this pact with death I may undo." muttered Neko under his breath and the creature's eyes turned bloodshot red and began making headway towards the canyon, it steps carried through thin air and towards Takami who seemed without an opponent but Neko wasn't exactly the best for hand-to-hand, his summons were the best thing he had.

Duemi drew back her fist and punched Israfel in the face. Perhaps strong enough to break his nose. Lyra let out a startled growl and pounced on him, sinking her claws into his flesh and now was snarling in his face. Duemi of course now wanted some mouth wash and her irritation resulted in many sparks of random electricity to arc off her body, mostly hitting the ground. Duemi pulled out Zephyrsprirt again and now decided to slit Israfel's throat.

Jatza just stood there, not knowing how to fight, as she was a supporter. She ignored the gecko, wondering why it wanted to sleep now of all times, and waited for one of the teachers to move.
"Who in the world am I supposed to fight?" Jatza said to herself, but in reality, hoping to get a response. She wished she could just leave, or ask Terent, but he was gone, to who knows where. Maybe she made a mistake by coming here. Maybe she wasn't able to become great. Maybe she should just wander the lands as a healer and an entertainer, never staying long enough for them to know her name.

Pendragon didn't seem at all suprised at her outburst, in fact he was re-assured by it. This wasn't his Suzume. No, his Suzume was much stronger than this, probably why Pen had fallen like a fool for her.
Pendragon locked eyes with her once more, facing her for what she really was. Another opponent.
"You must have a different script to me." He said, his voice cold. "Because that doesn't sound like a happy ending to me."
Pendragon's eyes seemed to flicker upwards, for just a second.
Takami raised his sword, waiting eagerly to meet this beast Neko had summoned in battle. It was not his style to make the first move though, Takami would rather wait and watch. Wait and watch, and learn.
"And besides, how can the guy get the girl if the girl's actually an evil duplicate?" Pen said, making jokes til his last breath. "What kind of a story is this anyway!?"
"You know what? I think it needs to be re-written. Hmmm... How about...." He reached into his long red coat and drew out a pistol. "I blow your brains out." He aimed and fired twice. "And everybody gets to live."

"And how about I teach you the rules of this place." The imposter mocked and the barrel of Pendragon's pistold warped and tied into a knot. "I was asked into this place, invited to live here due to other... misfortunes. You are merely an intruder." She didn't seem too fully frightened by what Pendragon had said, "Besides, the real question is what happened to your precious Suzume? She's obviously not here... and one can only imagine what would happen to her if she got swept away in the waters of Styx." she motioned to the dark waters that ominously surrounded them.
The creature reached Takami and went headlong into a biting attack, jaw slavering and releasing a screech from it's vocals as spines raised on the back of it's head and the metal barb on it's tail lashed around viciously as the spines rose all along it's back, the creature looked very much like a depiction of a veloceraptor perhaps.
Neko shook his head as he watched his undead beast begin to fight, his method which he used wasn't very useful for summoning weaker creatures such as this one, because it required him to controll it's every movement instead of mentally superimposing what he wanted it to do, his fingers moved as if he were pulling strings though he tried to make it as discreet as possible.
Suzume drifted through the waters, she would have seen dark spots in her vision if everything wasn't pitch black anyways. A faint glimmer of red could be seen and she smiled weakly as she tried to pull herself through the murky blackness towards the wall which separated her from Pendragon. Her turquoise eyes shimmered brightly, though they were beacons of the weakness overcoming her from lack of air and the liquid death that poured into her system.
Israfel ducked out of the way, but not nearly fast enough as Duemi's fist slammed into his right eye and he stepped back and away from her and he tore Lyra from him, the leopard's claws ripped out of his flesh and he looked at Zephyrspirit, "Well, well Momojiri... I give you my affections and then you act this way towards me? That hurts, it really does."
"Oh! There she is! The little darling." the imposter mocked as she saw Suzume. The imposter's turquoise eyes faded to green and her hair lengthened into curled light brown tresses that fell to her shoulders and she looked quite ladylike and delicate- hardly suited for the life of a common slave like Suzume had. Indeed, this person had been a slave and indeed she was from Suzume's past, this person was known as Hikazu.
Terent looked towards Jatza, "Either this Ouwashi person or Takami- it seems to be the general idea." His elven ears twitched and he breathed through the gasmask on his face and joined in the flurry of battle against Ouwashi with a smile, though it was hidden by the respirator.
The water was quite different inside, Suzume fealt things brush against her, fingernails raked down her back and torn flesh clung to her own, disembodied parts drifted past her and it was only thanks to the limiting range of view that she didn't see all of them, bodies of soldiers, bodies of children, bodies of old, bodies of the unborn, all of them dead, men, woman, everyone would come to these waters- it was the River Styx and there was no escape from it's churning rapids, there would be no escape from death, for all are doomed to die in the end.
