With Kathiren-

She stood still, 1643 smiled and used one of Hyacinth's paws to hit her aside. Kathiren hit the wall with a sickening thud, and slouched over. 1643 laughed at her in victory as she used Hyacinth's paw to send the limp body of Kathiren sliding across the floor.

-With Hyacinth-

The darkness threatened to choke her, but she could see what 1643 was doing. She saw the limp body of her sister, she wanted to cry out to her and beg her to just get up! At that moment all her pain over her sister turned into rage, rage that had one and only one target. 1643. She ripped off the vine and swam her way up to the surface. She pulled herself back onto solid ground, and while 1643 was distracted she grabbed what might have been a throat. 1643 laughed at her, but Hyacinth stood strong facing one of the things that had tormented her for years.

"What are you gonna do little Kitty Cat? Hmm, try to stop me? Oh. Wait your too late, 2938 is dead!" She laughed at 3038, who looked at her angrily, she felt the grip around her throat tighten.

"You wanna know what I'm going to do?~" Hyacinth purred, "I'm going to kill the bitch who used my body to kill my sister." She growled, using all her strength to crush 1643's neck. Which cracked and splintered under her hand, her eyes showed no mercy, only rage. She continued to break and crush 1643's spine. 1643 let out a screech of agony, as her body was torn to shreds leaving nothing behind.

-With Tord-

There was no way that Kathiren had let herself die like that. He punched in her chip's code and looked at her vitals. Everything was flatlining but there was no alert that she was dying. He looked at it closer, finally noticing the small pixel sized arches that made up her heart beat. He looked away from his arm in time to see Hyacinth collapse in her half form. Kathiren got up and hugged her sister, and whispered something to her. Tord watched as her vitals slowly went back to normal, that's when he noticed the feathers hanging out from Kathiren's shirt. She had played them all, and surprisingly well at that. Kathiren moved her hand to reveal her sister's broken visor, it was smoking. She carefully put it back on her sister's face, it looked completely brand new. The digital eye appeared, and Hyacinth hugged her sister tightly. Behind Tord the two girls were waking up as well. They saw their father sprawled out on the floor, Elenora panicked for a second before her sister calmed her.

"Its okay he's just knocked out, he'll be fine." Aquila reassured her, Tord flinched he had forgotten that Ellie had placed a curse on him to protect him. There was no way he could deny that he knew her now.

"Fæn.." He muttered under his breath as the girls noticed him, to which they both remained dead silent. He could almost feel Aquila's gaze burning into his back, seemingly asking for him to look back at her. Kathiren looked at him for a second almost amused at what was happening before Hyacinth scolded her for scaring her. Aaron opened the doors startling Tord, he looked at the medic curiously but was careful not to look at Aquila.

"Sorry sir, Paul and Pat were going to kill me if I didn't find them..." Aaron sighed nervously, Tord looked at him sternly.

"How could you lose them in the first place?" He asked growling at the medic, who shrank away from him.

"T-They teleported out of my room s-sir.." Aaron explained stuttering in fear of his leader, who growled at him. Aquila began yelling at him in a language he didn't quite understand.

"Hei! Älä huuda häntä! Hän ei tehnyt mitään väärää!" (it's supposed to say: Hey! Don't yell at him! He didn't do anything wrong!) Aquila screamed at him, but Tord dared to look at the girl who saw everything he had done. She growled at him, he realized his mistake and began to cover it up.

"Are you scared of me?" He asked her with a smile, she moved in front of her sister.

"Why would I be scared of someone like you? Devil. You don't make me scared, you make me want to make sure you are nowhere near my family." She growled moving closer to him, "You don't make me afraid. You make me disappointed, in just how foolish you were in your past, and how foolish you still are." At this point she was in his face, "You make me sick." She spat as Kathiren picked up on the rising tension and pointed it out to her sister. The two of them walked closer to the two.

"Hey Aquila how about I train you on how to use your talents better, while my sister Hyacinth here watches Ellie?" Aquila backed up to her sister and looked at the other two sisters.

"How do I know I can trust her?" Aquila asked gesturing to Hyacinth, who had no eyes for her to look into. Hyacinth paused for a second, thinking of a way to show her, that she was trustworthy.

"I can show you. But you can choose what you see, so you don't think I'm tricking you." Hyacinth offered and Aquila nodded in agreement, Hyacinth's keeled down and pressed her forehead against Aquila's for a second. She was careful not to hit her visior on the girl's face. It was seemingly brief, but it was a enough for Aquila. When Hyacinth moved her head away, Aquila looked at Ellie.

"Alright, Ellie go with Hyacinth, and Hyacinth will go with Aaron, so Paul and Pat don't kill him. While I will train with Kathiren, so if I'm needed, most likely or not, Mr.Devil here will be watching us so they can contact him. Aaron, please take my dad out of here.." She had everything laid out, but when she said 'Mr.Devil' she put her thumb over her shoulder and pointed at Tord. Kathiren nodded, pausing for a second.

"We're also going to need the normal training room mostly because it is smaller and has the practice dummies, later on however we will need actual people but not right now." She explained and Tord nodded, "I won't be as hard on her, as I was taught, but I will not tolerate unnecessary foolishness though." She told Aquila who looked at her curiously, but nodded anyways.

"...How were you taught?..." Aaron asked her, she looked at him with a blank expression.

"Learn, Adapt, and Survive or die." She growled quickly so it was difficult for the children to understand. Aquila looked at her as the two made eye contact, her expression made her confused. "How about we start with weak spots?" Kathiren suggested with a sigh, and Aquila nodded. The two girls watched as Hyacinth, Elenora, and Aaron left. Ironically with Elenora holding one of Hyacinth's hands as she skipped down the hallway. Kathiren looked at Tord, "Perhaps You, Paul, and Pat could go do something else? I know for a fact that you must have something better to do." She urged him, he didn't quite get it and looked at her confused. "Well I don't know, maybe home movies?" She asked as the gears in his head began clicking, processing what she was telling him.

"Oh Right, what about Edvard?" He asked and Aquila made a growl-like sound.

"Don't worry about my Father. I can do that. Matter of fact-" Aquila growled and Kathiren covered her mouth, Aquila glared at her.

"Don't let your anger get the best of you." Kathiren commanded moving her hand off of Aquila's mouth. "Just go sir or you might be attacked by this little wolf." Kathiren sighed, he nodded and walked off. He opened his office door and pulled out the small flash drive from the box Bella had given him. He sighed knowing his parents would be there at any moment. He plugged in the flash drive into his computer's port, letting it load as his parents opened the door and got settled down.
