Orin quickly facepalmed. He did not just do that.
"Whoa!" Utsuho said in awe and walked over to River, staring at his chest eye. "You have an eye just like me! Orin, come check this out!"
Orin shrugged as she sighed. Maybe she didn't need that plan after all, besides Yuugi could tell when a fight is over. "Wow mister River sir. I didn't know you could obtain an eye like Okuu. That's pretty impressive I would say!" She replied cheerfully as she walked to him. "Now....should we finish with the other enemies or what.
---
"Satori!" Yamame ran towards the end of the ledge. That was careless. Really, really, careless! She noticed that there was Yukari there, yeah that was the name of the person that was with the shrine maiden. She slid down the hill and walked up to her though she was a bit imtidated by her power. "Um...excuse me miss, mind if I help you with my friends? We want to fight for Satori!"

(OOC: Sorry, that was dumb of me. Let me fix that...)
The battle was all but over. Avarvice was dead, and the enemy that wasn't already dead was being routed, but Hakkyou didn't get any satisfaction from it, not when Satori might be dead. She hadn't known her except by rumor, but she was clearly a youkai she would love to know better. And worse, she had tried to help her, tried to separate her from the fight so that she could save them all with some brilliant strategy, but she couldn't save her when Lance stabbed her before her very eyes. She hadn't even seen him appear, there was nothing she could have done, but she dearly wished that she could have been the one to take that blade. Seeing Yukari appear brought her some comfort, however, that Lance would soon get what he deserves.

{OOC: Lance is my character, you can't just off him like that So I'm ignoring those events, he didn't even start fighting Yukari yet. You can't control anothers character without their permission, it's a staple in the world of roleplay. Hence why I rarely mention your characters doing anything in my posts.}
_________________________
Lance knew there wasn't any way for him to face Yukari, he could sense that Avarvice was already taken out. He swore, was this gonna be it for him as well. He managed to free himself from her grip and stared her down. When suddenly.
"Your opponent is me." The deep voice of Blade Soulheart said as his right foot connected with Yukari's head and sent her flying sideways. He landed with his arms crossed, the sheer force of his magical energy causing the darkness around the area to shatter. "Your job here is done, Lance. Get out of here."
"Right away!"
"You've got some nerve, Soulheart." Yukari snarled.
"You're the one who took so long to get out here, a leader should be right there with their troops, not hiding behind them."
"Tch, it doesn't matter. I'll end you now." Yukari said as she got into a battle stance.
"We'll see about that." He spoke without taking his eyes off her, he was deadly serious.
-----
"My...What a beautiful attack." Avarvice said as he stood up from where he had been sent not a single scratch on him. "I didn't expect him to take such a path. Truly amusing." He laughed quietly. "Sadly, such an ability cannot defeat me." He began walking forward as he suddenly vanished, as he was masking his presence. He appeared suddenly to the left of River and backhanded the white haired warrior several hundred feet. "The battle...is just beginning." He said with a cold voice as purple energy exploded around him and in both of his hands, a demonic spear appeared. "Allow me to show you true despair."
----
The battle between Ling and Yuuka continued, they were both beaten up, but they continued, their smirks never leaving their faces, it was truly a battle of the ages.
"Give up yet?" Ling asked her.
"Not on your life!"

Yamame looked up at the ledge where her friends were at and then back to the powerful foes. "Hm...I'll do it! For Satori and my friends!" She then took a deep breath as spiders began to come slowly from all sorts of place.
"Why do everyone hate the Tschigumos?"
The numbers of spider multiplied quickly as the bottom of her dress started to tear.
"It is because they are scared."
Spider appendages sprang from her back and tore the back of her dress.
"Of course, I wouldn't blame them."
She then out the bow in her hair, loosening her blonde locks and she then closed her eyes. The spiders came all around her and the air took a sharp, sickly, aura. She then opened her eyes, revealing one eye with one pupil and the other with seven. She smirked. "Yukari Yakumo, I would like to help you with your battle."
"Us Tschigumos like to hide our true ability as diease youkai!"
Kisume smiled devilishly. She loved when Yamame revealed her true youkai nature to people; As she watched blue will-o-wisp flames start to hover around her, a dark aura overcoming her previous one. ---
"No way...." Orin said wide-eyed. She then shook her head. She had to focus! That back-up plan was still in place and then the other thing she could use if that plan fails.
"Oi! So you want a bladefight?" Utsuho called out; she then held her cannon arm outward as it turned into a blade made out of nuclear energy. "Well you got one, you stupid asshole! You and your posse are through!"

As their allies unleashed their true power, Hakkyou and her friends quickly followed suit. Rumia's darkness spread out into two black wings and her eyes glowed ominously, Mystia's nails transformed into deadly claws and her wings grew, Wriggle, much like Yamame, grew out insectile appendages and she glowed brightly like the firefly she was. They quickly charged back into battle, ripping apart their enemies far more quickly than before.
Hakkyou herself couldn't do anything so drastic, not being an animal youkai, but as her power grew her emotions took form, becoming distorted copies of herself with various eye colors. They quickly flew out into battle, invoking the emotions that formed them on the enemy- Some of the enemy youkai went insane with bloodlust and tore each other apart, others were gripped with hopelessness and despair, still others became deliriously happy, but joyful or sad, they still lost their fighting edge and fell in battle. After a while of this, saw that Avarvice was not only still alive somehow, but that he getting the upper hand on River. All of her "emotes" turned as one and attacked the vile satori, physically and emotionally. Hakkyou herself hung far back, knowing that if this didn't work she had best be as far away as possible.

Avarvice simply yawned as all the attacks toward him were deflected by a telekinetic barrier. He smirked. "From here on, it's a one way road!" He laughed manically, he was really getting into this, that all changed however when he let his mind reading extend a bit farther and he heard what Blade was thinking, and what Lance was thinking, and what Yukari was thinking. Satori had been injured? Suddenly the dark aura around him subsided as he regained mental control, his spears vanished as he turned around and flicked his hand, sending half of his own army flying away. His loyalty didn't matter anymore, a member of his own race had been injured, a race he had founded. To dare do such a thing...Blade had gone too far. His presence dissipated as he reappeared mere feet from Blade.
"What is it, Avarvice?"
"I think you know."
"I knew you would turn your sword against me if that happened, but do you really think you stand against me?"
Avarvice looked at Blade with a haunted look, his fangs drawing blood from his own lips. "I'm going to rip off your own arms and choke you with them." He said coldly. He lunged at a ferocious speed, his claws ready to tear the limbs from Blade.
Blade's fist came down on top of Avarvice's head causing the Satori Youkai's face to slam down into the ground at incredible speeds, which made the ground crack. "Rejected." Blade said bluntly before turning back to face Yukari.
"You didn't kill him despite the fact that he betrayed you, maybe you do look out for your own." Yukari spoke with a curious tone.
"He was simply being loyal to a force far greater than me. The loyalty to ones family takes precedence over all."
"Family?" Yukari asked.
"Never you mind!" Blade roared as he charged forward, his fists colliding with her energy.
Tasuki returned then and grabbed Avarvice, before retreating into a portal.
____________________
Satori's eyes opened slowly, she found herself in a makeshift bed on a sofa. Her stomach portion hurt like no tommorow, but she'd live. She turned her head to the side and saw Patchouli sitting there reading a book.
"Good to see you're alive." Patchouli said as she looked over the book. "But you won't be able to move for awhile, that was a pretty ferocious attack you received."
"I guess so." She winced as a jolt of pain shot through her. "I can't believe I was so blind..."
"It's fine, just take it easy. You're lucky to still be breathing."
"Brought a friend" Tasuki said as he entered with Avarvice hung over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. He threw him down on another couch. "His wounds aren't that bad, he just has a mild concussion, some bed rest and he'll be fine." He quickly did a bed up for the guy.
"What is he doing here? Why did you bring an enemy here?" Satori asked, anger rising in her voice.
"You weren't there, but as soon as this guy found out you were wounded, he went ballistic, turned on Blade and everything. Granted, he wasn't much of a match and he has amazing luck that Blade went easy on him, but I haven't seen such passionate rage in a long time."
"He attacked Blade...for me?" Satori asked in confusion.
"Heheh...Yeah, and I won't tell you why. Perhaps it's because you're both Satori youkai, but maybe...nah, I think I'll let you figure that out on your own." Tasuki said as he withdrew from the room.

Tasuki is being a bit more cryptic than usual, Shoki thought. Curious about that new arrivals, she walked over to Satori and Avarvice. She could tell right away that there was something... ominous about the latter, but the former was conscious and gave off a far less creepy aura.
"Hello. You're a Satori, right? Is it true you can read minds?"
__________________________
Hakkyou's emotes quickly got up, though she herself was a bit depressed by how easily they were stopped.
"I really am useless here, at least against the important people."
"Maybe not." said another voice. She spun around to see Mima floating nearby. "I'm gonna see if I can take out Blade, but my Twilight Spark is going to take a while to charge. If he ever gets the upper hand on Yukari, I want you to distract him, and when I give you the signal, I want those copies of yours to hold him down, got it?"
Hakkyou smiled.
"I'll see what I can do, Mima."

{You know what, forget the post order. This is much faster}
Satori looked up at the girl who approached her, she seemed kind enough and even ab it curious. "That is correct." She replied in a weak voice, she was still in a lot of pain. "My name is Satori Komeiji, I can tell your name is Shoki." She sighed. "Trying to learn magic are you, a worthy challenge. I'd help you study, but I'm in no shape as of right now."
"Perhaps I can help." The voice of Avarvice spoke, he was already sitting up. "Such an injury won't keep me down for long." He rubbed his head before looking at Satori. Their eyes seemed to lock for a long time.
"I see..." Satori said as she buried her head under the covers. Was it true? Was he really...

(OOC: Sorry, I completely forgot about that, but ok, whatever works.)
Shoki looked back and forth at the two youkai, wondering what just passed between them, and more importantly to her, why either of them would want to teach her... then gave up. They could read her mind, doubtless they knew all about her already. As things are, she didn't know them at all, no matter what their appearance said, and if there was a chance to learn more, then it should be taken.
"Well, I'm grateful to both of you, but I think it really would be better if you two rest." See them still staring at each other with all three of their eyes, she asked, "Do you two... know each other?"

OOC: Hello, this is the writer, I'd like to warn you that the following post contains massive amounts of FEELS. You may want to lay down and cry afterwards, you have been warned.
___________________________
Satori peaked out from under the covers. "Avarvice...is my father." She said in a meek voice. "But I don't understand one thing...why weren't you there for us? Koishi and I...we went through so much, the pain...the sadness." Tears began to roll down her cheeks. "Why? Why did you abandon us?" It was then that she lost her composure and began crying. She clutched her blankets, but the sobs continued to come and she began to shake as the crying intensified.
Avarvice walked over to her couch and embraced her in a hug. "Because I couldn't...your father was a very bad man in the past. I've done a lot of things I regret...but the thing I regret the most was causing you so much pain. I can never forgive myself for such behavior. The moment that I saw you for the first time, I knew who you were...and when I heard that you were injured, I realized what a fool I had been. Such a fool. The anger I felt then, I cannot describe it. I sided with the enemy, I allowed them to progress, I led to you getting injured." He made a fist as he hugged her tighter, being careful not to irritate her injury. "Being unable to control your third eye, what pain it must have put you through. Had I been around, I could have taught you the ways to master it." He could taste salt in his mouth, how long had it been since he displayed such emotion? But it didn't matter, he held his own daughter in his arms and he'd sacrifice his life to protect her, to keep her safe. "Koishi...I can see why she followed the path she chose...However, I can save her."
Satori's sniffles stopped at the moment when she heard that. "Y-You can?" She mumbled in disbelief.
"Yes, it is easy work for a Satori such as myself, all I desire...is for us to be a family. To make up for all the time that we've lost."
It was then that Satori's arms came around him and she returned his embrace. They stayed like that for a long time, communicating mostly through their minds.

(WOW. OW MY FEELS AREA. omfg I just noticed Koishi's in the battlefield well fuck) Meanwhile at the battlefield, "Orin,Okuu!" They both looked to see Koishi appearing in front of them. "Koishi! Satori is going to be upset if you get hurt!" Orin yelled in disbeilef. Koishi puffed her cheeks out in a pout. "But I want to fight. Big Sis is going to be in trouble with this war going on! I want to help her and the others!" Orin and Utsuho looked at each other before sighing happily and smirking. "Well, it can't be helped. Fine then Koishi, you can help us ." Utsuho then looked around. "I guess the most obivoius thing is fight; Yuugi and Parsee are holding up well and I see Yamame and the others helping the border youkai." She then placed her chin on her head. "Hmm....What would Madam Satori say to do?" "Ooooh! I know! She would say take out the leaders first! That way the army will scatter due to no leadership!" Koishi said, waving her arms. Orin nodded. "That's right! So we need to find a leader, take them out, and their portion of the enemy army is easy pickings or they'll scatter!" (I'll be M.I.A until 1pm, 1:30pm since I have a practice SAT today)

(The feels, it burnsssss!)
One of Hakkyou's emotes hovered near the battle between Blade and Yukari, just out of sight, instilling a sense of hopelessness in Blade, that he couldn't win no matter what he did. It would be a slow progress, but ultimately unstoppable. What would start as doubt in his own abilities would become a belief that he couldn't escape from this battle alive. The rest of the emotes followed Rin, Koishi and Utsuho, hoping to help them out. Hakkyou herself kept a careful eye on Blade, making sure things went according to plan. If Yukari couldn't kill Blade now, then Mima's Twilight Spark would definitely finish the job.

Now this tactic would work, except that Blade showed no signs of slowing down. He continued to fight at full power, uneffected by the emotions. It didn't matter though, he was still at a disadvantage.
"You're weaker than I remember you being, Blade."
"There's a good reason for that." He said with a smirk as he was breathing heavily.
"And that reason is?"
"You'll have to find out."
---
"Quite the pain you are." The voice of Fate spoke up from directly behind Hakkyou. His nodachi already raised above his arc. "You are the most dangerous one here."
"Shutthefuckup!" River's voice cut in as he slammed a nuclear charged right hook into Fate's face and sent him flying backwards. "I'm your opponent!"
Fate quickly regained his composure and sighed. "Very well, if you wish to die first, that is no problem with me." He charged forward, although there was something odd about him. His mood almost seemed...indifferent. As if he didn't care if he won or lost.
---
Ling and Yuuka's fight still continued, both of them were on their last legs now.
"Let's finish this." Ling said as he pointed his naginata at her.'
"I agree." Yuuka replied.
They both charged toward eachother in what culminated in a massive explosion. What remained was a crater with the both of them laying next to each other, unconscious.
----
"I'm tired of all this crap..." River said slowly. "All these injuries...all these people getting hurt." The pupils in his red eyes became cat-like as the third eye on his chest cracked and then shattered, but flames continued to pour out around him as they formed something resembling a dragon above him. "I'm going to pay you back 100x for all you've done."
Fate raised an eyebrow, stopping in his charge. "That aura...that magical power...those eyes. The physical strength, the affinity for fire." Suddenly he dropped his nodachi, knowing that all was lost for him. He fell to hi knee's in disbelief. "You were never a Hell Celestial, nor were you a normal Celestial. The third eye that manifested was simply your powers being what you could understand. No, the reason you're so strong, the reason you were banned from Heaven, it wasn't because you were bad...it was because they feared you. River D. Scarlett, you're a Dragon Youkai!"
River's magical power increased even more as he let out something akin to a Dragon's roar that shook the ground.
"That's why Avarvice was unable to kill you, you never died. You simply made it look that way...maybe you were unaware of it yourself...but truly..." Fate trembled in fear, there was no way he could compete with such a monster. "All hail the commander, the prince of all Youkai."
"Stand up! I refuse to attack an opponent who won't defend himself!" River bellowed as fire wrapped around his fists. It was at that moment that he formed dragon wings out of fire. "Let's go!"
"Heh...so be it." Fate composed himself and readied his Nodachi. "I will fight you, River D. Scarlett. Allow me to see the true power of a Dragon!"
"DRAGONS! REQUIEM! BLAST!" The white haired youkai roared as he unleashed a raging blast that met Fate's blade, the two forces collided as a massive shockwave was sent outwards. In the end however, Fate was no match for the blast and was overwhelmed, however he was not killed. At the last second, he retreated using his superior speed, deciding to cut his losses.
River stood in front of the massive canyon that was once flat land, breathing heavily. He held up his right hand and looked at it. "A dragon...huh?"

"Apparently so..." Hakkyou said. "And thanks for saving me. I have to wonder though, what did he mean about me being dangerous? It's not like I've done anything really important here, and I compare to anyone in power... but I get the feeling you know what he meant. If you do, then tell me! Tell me what I can do to end all of this!"
"For a start..." Mima interjected, "I'm about to fire this thing, make sure Blade's in position."
"Oh, right..." The emote closest to Blade grabbed onto him, and Mima fired her Twilight Spark, creating a massive explosion. "Ok, River... NOW what can I do to end all of this?"

"Huh?" Orin cocked her head to the side as the emotes came beside them. "It's that youkai that was with us before this started! Expect more of her. Go figure" "Oh yeah!" Koishi walked to over to Utsuho and gave her a green device that seemed to be used for communicating. "A lady with a lab coat and purple hair told me to give this to you when I got the chance a while ago! She didn't tell me what it did though." "Really?" Utsuho put the device in her hair like a headband. "I kinda like this! Though I wished she told you, but judging by the structure, it's a communication device!" She cocked her head to the side. "I wonder why that lady would do something like that." ---- Yamame and Kisume looked on as Mima delivered the Twilight Spark to Blade. "Aw so we didn't to do anything?! What a shame." Yamame said with a pout. "Well, we did decrease some of the enemy army; I guess we weren't made for big battles. That's more Yuugi's job." Kisume replied calmly, the blue will-o-wisps going around her in a circle. "But now I guess the ringleader is gone so there's only one left and then everything else can go smoothly"
