Asriel sat in Britney's living room using his Aura abilities to help with repairs have been doing this for the past two days. Brittney was painting a wall; while her brush strokes strokes were smooth, Asriel knew she was troubled by her brother being a Shadow Warrior, for him to be a an envoy of Suecra. Asriel finished wielding metal reinforcements for the door, sighing as he watched his love for a while.

"Whoa! What happened here?" a voice called as Brittney put down her brush, the voice belonging to someone they hadn't heard from in a while. "Nightmare! Where you been bro?" Asriel asked, wheeling over to properly greet his friend. "School, unlike you two," Nightmare said, putting a binder on Asriel's lap, making him groan; there had to be a month's worth of assignments in it!

"My house was attacked by... a Shadow Warrior," Brittney said, her voice catching slightly as she almost said her brothers name. Asriel took her paw and squeezed it, giving her silent comfort; she held his gratefully, returning the pressure. "You go take a break; I will explain to him," Asriel told her with a kind tone, kissing her paw lightly. Brittney blushed but nodded, leaving Asriel to explain what happened.

"Brittney's brother, Jason, is a shadow warrior. He just attacked us out of nowhere. None of us saw it coming,"Asriel explained, giving the shortest explanation he could that would make the most sense. "Oh. I can see why Brittney would be upset," Nightmare said, nodding his head in understatement. "I'm sure she is. Her aura tells me that much anyway," Asriel said, a note of worry entering his voice. Brittney suddenly rounded the corner, a half finished sandwich in her paw and a smile on her face. "Brittney? That was a quick break," Asriel told his love as she approached, raising an eyebrow to her. "I know, but there is something that I just remembered from my time with Arceus. In order for this not to happen again, there is something we can do."
She told the two, her smile spreading.

"There is?" Nightmare asked, confused and wanting to know what she meant. "Yes. With the power of all of the light warriors combined, we can make all of our homes Light Sanctuaries. We and our families will be safe from shadow warrior attacks there, and they'll know it. The Shadow Warriors would not be able to attack them; they would only hurt themselves in the process," Brittney explained in a calm and collected matter. "Brittney, that's a great idea!" Asriel said, wrapping an arm around her waist, his excitement clear in his voice and aura. "Just one of the things I learned during my brief time with Arceus," she told them with a wink.

"One problem, however. We need Orron for it to work. We should make getting him back out next priority," Nightmare said; Asriel nodded, agreeing with the statement. "I'm perfectly fine with that. I remember what Arceus told me about that," Brittney smiled, placing a paw on Asriels shoulder, knowing that Orron's actions had hurt her love the most. "Good. Let's hope you have what it takes, then," Asriel said, knowing that she would be able to do it.

"Do you know where Orron lives?" Nightmare asked Asriel as they all walked into the house. "Yes, but what are we going to do? The seal is still over his mind," Asriel asked the Umbreon. "I will take care of that. I just need you two to pin Orron to the ground or a wall; I can break the seal, but I will need you two to hold him for a little while," Brittney said as they sat at the kitchen table, bread, Oran berries and chips on the table; the perfect food for a meeting of this caliber. "Nightmare, can you call Flae and tell her to come over to Brittney's? We could use her help," Asriel said; Nightmare nodded, taking out his phone and stepping out to make the call. "Now, what should we do?" Brittney asked, her eyes looking thoughtful. "Do you think you could heal my back fully? I need to be battle ready ASAP," Asriel suggested, hoping that he would not be putting too much stress on Brittney and her body; his aunt had warned them that a over use of magic could make one's body burst into flames.

Brittney nodded, telling him that she would try. As they ate, Nightmare came back, saying that she would be over in twenty minutes. "Also, she will be bringing pizza," Nightmare told them as he took a seat. "Good; the calories will help Brittney recover," Asriel said; using aura magic drains the user quite heavily, from what Agua had told them. Brittney explained the plan as Asriel wheeled to the bedroom he was staying in.

Soon Brittney came into the room, rolling her shoulders for the magic she was about to use, her paws glowing a faint white. Moving very slowly, Asriel stood up and moved to lay on the bed, having to fight down a curse as pain laced through his body. Brittney closed the door and took a seat on a stool beside his bed. Placing her paws right above his back, the Braixen warned him that it would hurt. Nodding, Asriel relaxed as much as he could.

Ten seconds later, Asriel passed out from the pain, his world going black.
