(Well well....... Nexus cracked, huh? I thought he'd take this a whole lot.... easier.)

Vasti's eyes widen as he sees the calm and collective Nexus had fallen backward at the revelation the Owari had given. He automatically shuts off the presentation of the image. "The Cataclysm, eh? And why.. are you keeping this a secret from everyone else?" He inquires now walking in mid air. "I don't see why you have to be so secretive, as now, you have a league of people acknowledging you as an ally."

Thelma waves her hands in defense. "Oh no no no... you misunderstood. Men from Obsidian City cannot leave. With an exception of Le'ej, all men who are born from Obsidian City are bound here and here alone. We are in a much more, luckier state than any of them, if I must admit.."

Elizbeth cups a hand on her mouth. "True. They may have boundless power... but these men must have something to balance out their tendencies to level what is in their path. The ego... is the best way for them to .. stop.. from becoming smart-asses." Elizbeth bends her head. "They'd have to think twice than to make a scene."

Elizbeth laughs at Kenzie. "Stay here for a little longer. A man from this city might take notice of you soon. I can guarantee. (Thelma flicks at her) Elizbeth. You raise her hopes up too much.

"Oww....."

Ersha listens on a bit to Baph-san -- up until Ojo walks over to them and calls for her and Cybele. She grins at her and Cur-chan. "Stick around. We'll... be back." She dashes off, ahead of Cybele - who was yet to end her talk with Repter and Ayu. "Ojo-sensei... what do you mean she's lost control?"

"I'm not sure.... but.... she's been acting off since this morning. I myself, am scared. There's something growing on the back of her neck and she's been hacking at anything in sight, declaring something was wrong with her..."

The sadness from P'ire's face made Jeiel know that she wanted, by all means, to help Ozma overcome her confusion. Jeiel breathed out in a huff. "Alright. I'll let you do that. But ... simple request: bring me with you."

Sebyl looks at him in aghast. "J-Jeiel, are you sure ?? What if something happens while you're inside Ozma's mind and (is stopped by a hug from Jeiel) Hey... I'll be fine. I've been holed, blinded by this woman. What else is she going to do, break my jaw? I'll let her do that. So as long as it'll get her back to our side.

Le'ej: (drops his head) Noble effort, Yozama.

Jeiel: You read my mind. (Gives him a peace-sign)

'See." Dima turns to Drac-chan sternly. "You wouldn't believe my efforts. How easy it is for outsiders to doubt..." She eyes toward Isaac. "Welcome to Obsidian City....... Isaac Kifer. (Bows) Please. Stay still for now. Your recovery is slow... but after 11 hours you will be in prime condition. The other members of your ranch are out by the kitchen. Now.. I must take my leave."

Dima proceeds out of the doorway. "Heiki..... you raise a rabble like this again...?"

Just as Ersha leaves with Ojo Cybele looks at Ayu and Repter with a knowing glance. "As far as I know... only Nathan Mika and that Mindflayer are those we should look out for. " She prepares to leave - and finds Ayu following her. "Alright..... just.. stay behind us. You might not like what you're going into."

Joining up to Ersha and Ojo, the four return to where Jeiel, Le'ej, Pi're, Sebyl and Blances are, monitoring Ozma. The arrival of the four alarms Jeiel.

"Jeiel-kun... Nunnally is..."

BOOOOOOOOOOM!

Jeiel hears a destruction downstairs - in the open backyard of the Obsidian Palace. "Is that.. Nunna?" Le'ej furrows his eyebrows. Something crosses his mind....

-

As Repter tracked where the explosion, someone appear by his side. The Dorome Dima. The one who was behind Le'ej from the moment they were introduced. "You are .. Repter, correct?" She asks. "Please..... prepare a stunning bolt. When we arrive.... and I give a signal fire it."

The Shoggoth Kagami looks at Sky and Silent with a pleasant reaction. "Do you wish to talk to someone? We have a communicator here. It allows you to converse with someone outside the boundary of Zion. " She offered.

At that same time, the explosion from one of the corridors intensify. It was Xena, ripping and tearing at the Mindflayer set before her. Just when she imagined it was done, the broken body of a Mindflayer splits to two more and hovers around with mocking gestures at Xena. "Come on, then, RIP us apart. Sate your anger.. your fury.. your bloodlust!! COME THEN!!"

They weren't attacking Xena. They were simply... inciting her frenzy,

And around that time, Dima arrives. "HEIKI  DIASPHORA, CEASE THIS ACTIVITY!!"
