After following Beatrice through the long halls to Raswaal's office. They reach their destination and Kajah is met with Emilia,Subaru,Ram,Raswaal,and a small floating cat like creature waiting for him.
Kajah: uhh this looks like an intermission...and who is that floating cat?
Beatrice: please have a seat Kajah.
Kajah: oh right my bad.
Puck: Hello there my name is Puck. Now I'll need you to sit here for me please and relax.
Kajah sits in the center and Puck goes to Kajah and puts his tail on his forehead.
Puck: (hmmm I can feel extremely strong and menacing demonic power. Not to mention this mana is unreal...there's so much within him.) Oh! I can see he has the same power as you Subaru.
Subaru: same power?
Puck: yes the ability Shamak,but...theres something else I can't explain.
Kajah: oh you can use shadows to Subaru?
Puck: Shadows? You mean Shamak?
Kajah: oh I know it's called that. However I wanted to change the name of it cause I made it more useful than just for status effects or debuffs.
Puck: huh? What do you mean?
Kajah: oh I'll show you all this thing I become called the Shadow Knight. Heh it's pretty cool.
Raswaal: Well now that's very interesting, but Pack where you able to sense anything else?
Puck: well yes. There's a great power hidden and locked away with in you Kajah. Did you know this?
Kajah: hidden power? Well not really honestly. I haven't been able to feel anything to be honest.
Raswaal: hmmm well Emilia your call.
Emilia: I still trust Kajah so whatever it is I'm sure Kajah has control over it.
Beatrice: I see alright then ill be going now.
Emilia: eh? Wait where Beatrice?
Beatrice: oh to see what Rem and those kids are up to.
Ram: huh Rem is with those kids? Thats where she's been?
Beatrice: yep. Well bye everyone I'll be going now.
{Beatrice leaves the room}
Raswaal: well Kajah you said something about a Shadow Knight? Do tell more of this.
Puck: yes what have you been able to do with the Shamak ability?
Emilia: yes I'm curious to.
Subaru: if you can do something more with that ability please show us.
Kajah a little smothered by everyone but agrees to show them.
Kajah: GAAHHHH!!! Ok Ok! But we have to be outside..
Emilia: oh ok.
Everyone goes outside to the front of the mansion,and Kajah gets some nice distance from everyone.
Raswaal: (oh I'm very interested in this Shadow Knight thing)
Subaru: (what can you do with Shamak? Show me Kajah.)
Puck: (let's see what you can do demon boy)
Kajah: alright this is a good enough distance.
Meanwhile Rem is watching the kids play outside with them,and Mei senses Kajah's demonic aura increasing.
Mei: NYA NYA NYA!!! EVERYONE KAJAH IS GONNA TURN INTO SHADOW KNIGHT!!!
Rem: Huh?
Rez: WHAT REALLY AWWW YAH!!
Zephyr: oooh I cant miss this
Toru: where where?
Kiskue: OH?! I must see this to
Mei: This way come on Rem follow me.
Rem: o...ok? (Shadow Knight???)
Emma looking up at Rem with a cute look.
Rem: come on I'll carry you ok Emma? *with a warm smile at Emma*
Emma gets carried by Rem to the area the other 5 kids went to.
Subaru: hm? Oh look it's Rem and the kids,but how did they find us so fast?
Rem and the kids meet up with Subaru and the others waiting to see what Kajah has to show them. Subaru explains everything to Rem and she to gets interested.
Rem: Shadow Knight?
Rez: yah it's this really really epic black armor Kajah is in and, makes him ridiculously powerful fast and impossible to take down.
Zephyr: yah he gets this cool eye to. HES SOOO COOOOL!!
Mei: NNNAAAAAYYY!!!!!
Subaru: you all seem to speak highly of this Shadow Knight. Now I'm more curious and excited to see
Emilia: me to honestly
Kajah: hahaha you guys are making me blush,but enough stalling. I hope you all are ready.
Just in an instant Kajah's voice got really serious and calm
Kajah: because I enjoy showing people who are interested,and I don't disappoint.
Kajah removes the bandage around his arm to reveal his demon arm, and then he removes his eyepatch revealing his crimson demon eye in doing so his black horn appears again.
Subaru: (w...woah..)
Kajah: Ready.
Kajah summons his demon sword Oblivion and then Yells
Kajah: SHADOWS!!!!!
The Area is covered in darkness and no one can see but then they hear Kajah's voice yell something else.
Kajah: SHADOWS REFORM!!!
The massive dark clouds come in and focus where Kajah is standing and creates a tower of darkness. Out of the darkness everyone can see one glowing red eye. Then they see a silhouette of a right arm moving from with the tower of darkness moving slowly. Before they could say anything the arm moved quickly to the right dissipating the tower of darkness and leaving a thick black mist left.
Kajah: this is what years of training and meditation can do for your true potential.
Kajah: takes one step and then another before finally revealing him self. Everyone is shocked and amazed by what they see.
Subaru: (n-no way.)
Puck: (what?!)
Raswaal: my my young man you are a very special user of that ability aren't you. I have never seen anyone manipulate Shamak at this level before.
Ram: (that Aura is intense)
Rem:(this power..it's from just him? All that mana and aura he's emitting is just unreal.)
Kajah: now then Raswaal,Emilia,Rem and Ram attack me
Rem and Ram:What?!
Raswaal: hm?
Emilia: wh-what??
Kajah: I want to show you all what this power can do. Don't hold back now. All of you can come at me if you wish.
Subaru: (he...can't be...serious...right?)
Puck: I say go for it Emilia. I'm very interested. I'll help you if need be.
Kajah: don't worry about anything getting damaged. I'll fix it that's a promise. Now then begin.
And everyone besides the kids and Subaru attack Kajah. Kajah taking on Rem,Ram ,Emilia, and Raswaal at the same time is just having the time of his life. He dodges and reacts to everything thats thrown at him.
Emilia: how is he so fast? His reaction time is just insane.
Rem: (how is he avoiding all of this...is that armor that powerful?)
Ram:(I can't even get close to him...what is this??)
Raswaal: (the power this boy possesses is unreal...I truly am interested in this one.)
Subaru: it's...it's like I'm looking at another person...is that really Kajah?
Rez: Heck yah it is
Subaru: Huh?
Mei: Kajah is super powerful when he's in that form,it's like he's a new person and knows what's going on around him at all times. That's why we feel supper safe when Kajah is around.
Toru: yah Kajah makes us feel safe and protected all the time. Even when we get into bad situations.
Subaru: I see...(so...this is your power Kajah...I wonder if...if I can learn this power to.)
Meanwhile the battle is still going on however everyone is starting to get tired from fighting for so long. Kajah on the other hand is at 100% still and has only been dodging and blocking their attacks. Raswaal also has been using little magic but can see that Kajah can hold his own even if he went all out on him.
Kajah: well it seem everyone is getting tired.
Emilia: *huffing and puffing* this ability is...something alright.
Rem: it's as if he knows all of our attacks.
Ram: and knows how to reach in time to avoid the next and block another one.
Puck: this truly is something boy
Kajah: this power is amazing yes but there is side effects
Emilia: Huh?
Subaru: side effects?
Kiskue: you will see what happens when he's in that form for too long.
Kajah dispels the armor and right after he takes massive damage all over his body as recoil from the armor.
Kajah: AAAARRRRRGGHHHHHH!!!!!
Kajah take a massive amount of damage from out of no where.
Emilia: *gasp* KAJAH?!
Subaru: KAJAH!!
Everyone calls out his name but Kajah put up his hand making them stop.
Kajah: heh don't worry it's just the effects. I'll heal up quickly,but that's the only problem with that power. Do to me using a power based off yin energy and then forcing it into something else. Using it in the way I do,this is the side effect.
Emilia: why didn't you tell us sooner
Kajah: cause I didn't want anyone to worry heheheh.
Subaru: *sigh* you idiot of course we would.
Emilia: yah I thought you where really hurt bad.
Rem: I agree you scared us.
Ram: I can't believe you didn't tell us about that side effect.
Kajah: eh...sorry. Normally 30 minutes is fine with no recoil but we went way over that.
Rem turns and looks at the kids.
Rem: did you all know about that?
Kiskue: Of course, but we saw how much fun Kajah was having so we didn't want to say anything. Besides we reacted the same way when we first saw his Shadow Knight form recoil.
Zephyr: yah and he heals super super fast go look.
Rem: Huh?
Everyone's turns back at Kajah and are amazed plus shocked to see all the cuts and wounds from the recoil damage that was done to him are completely gone.
Emilia: h...how?
Rem: (how did he heal so fast without healing magic?)
Raswaal: (this boy really is something else.)
Kajah: oh it's just a natural thing. I can heal from wounds that are not too bad off and or not internally serious.
Subaru: that was...amazing.
Kajah: heh thanks. Oh Subaru you have the same power right? I'm guessing you can't do that?
Subaru: n-no but...I would like to know how.
Kajah: hmmm I'll teach you when your 100% sure cause if your not carful you could hurt people and your self. Just think on it for a day ok Subaru?
Subaru: I-I see...sure I'll think on it.
After the little battle Kajah had to fix all the damages as promised and he began to do so while everyone else went inside to eat. Kajah insisted he fix the front first before doing anything else,but Rem offered to bring Kajah his food to him and so she does.
Rem: hey Kajah.
Kajah: hm? Oh hi Rem what's up?
Rem: here's your dinner. Eat it before you pass out from hunger.
Kajah: hahahah I doubt that will happen but thanks I'll eat it when I'm done.
Rem: very well
Rem sets the tray of food down and begins to walk back but then Kajah calls her back.
Kajah: Wait a minute.
Rem: hm?
Kajah: come sit with me and look at the sunset.
Rem: I can't I have work to do in the mansion.
Kajah: only for a minute besides I'll help you if want.
Rem: *sigh* ok I guess
Rem and Kajah sit together and watch the sunset.
Kajah: sooo Rem how where the kids earlier today?
Rem: hm? Oh they where great actually. Rez and Zephyr where playing some imagination game and Mei was trying to chase after a butterfly. Oh Toru was looking around in amazement and started smelling the flowers. Kiskue was sitting down reading several books. Emma was pulling me around pointing out things arou- what?
Kajah smiling at Rem mad her end her sentence.
Kajah: oh nothing just amazed at how much fun they where having around you is all. Normally they don't do that with strangers. Guess that means they trust you a lot.
Rem: trust...me?
Kajah: yah...let me tell you something about one of the children. Emma the smallest one was never abandoned or anything. Her parents actually loved her to death. It happened about 2 years ago. Her parents where coming to town to visit my grandmother because they know us so well,but...they got attacked by some random hell hounds. They tried to run away but they got surrounded. Keep in mind Emma is with them.
Rem: *nods her head*
Kajah: I herd a horrible scream nearby and I went to see what it was. What I saw was horrific and I saw Emma's half eaten mother around her daughter protecting her. So I rushed in before the hounds got to Emma and kill her next. I killed all of the hounds but...she already was in shock at what she had seen. Her cries still hurt to this day.
Rem: I'm...im sorry...that happened to her at such a young age.
Kajah: I agree. The time it took her to regain herself was about 4 months but, even then she would have horrible dreams about what happened. So I decided to tell her this. "Emma please don't be afraid because I will always protect you. I will be your Knight when ever you're in danger" and so I created the Shadow Knight armor. Of course not just for her but for all my kids. That being said those kids are the most important things to me. If anyone hurts them I will show no mercy,and Rem.
Rem: yes?
Kajah: I 110% trust you with them heehee they seem to like you a lot
Rem: i...im glad.
Kajah: Huh?
Rem: I'm glad those kids have someone keeping them safe always even when they are at their worst. I'm also glad they can trust me. Glad that you trust me Kajah. I to want to protect someone very important to me.
Kajah: oh? Your crush? You like some one don't ya.
Rem: I do, but...he already told me who he likes.
Kajah: Ah well then I say keep on protecting him still.
Rem: Huh?
Kajah: if you love him then protect him even if the feelings are not the same. Don't worry because I'm sure you will find someone who will want to protect you and love you all the same.
Rem looks up at Kajah and is amazed by what he said and how happy he looked saying it.
Rem:(he...i...what...is...this?) th-thank you Kajah.
Kajah: of course heheh I hope you meet that special someone Rem.
Rem: I...y-yah.
Kajah: welp guess I better continue fixing this mess I made hahahah.
Rem: i-I'll help
Kajah: oh Nono it's ok I did this so I'll fix it as promised.
Rem: well technically we all did but that's ok. I'll help still.
Kajah: heh alright if you insist.
Rem and Kajah began to work together the rest of the afternoon till it was dark. With them both working together they where able to finish fixing the front of the mansion.
Kajah: there all fixed. Thanks for the help Rem heh I probably would have messed up some parts considering i haven't lived here that long to memorize everything.
Rem: it's nothing really. I was just glad to help. Hey Kajah.
Kajah: Yah?
Rem: can you...can you tell me more about your eye and arm?
Kajah: ah...this.
Rem: oh no no you don't have to if it's personal.
Kajah: no it's ok I'll tell you. It was when my grandmother gave me this black sword when I was 16 years old. She told me to only unsheathe it when I'm ready to handle the effects. So of corse I unsheathe it heh. Well I lost control of my powers for a little and the demon sword gave me these demon powers and my eye plus arm. I guess Im part demon from it. But I'm also part human and part dark elf. My mother was a dark elf and my father was the human by the way. At least that's what my grandmother told me. Though I remember my mother quite well.
Rem: wow so your part demon,human,and dark elf?
Kajah: yep. How about you?
Rem: I'm a demon
Kajah: WAHH?!! Really?
Rem: yep here I'll show you.
Rem stands up and starts to focus her mana. Then all of a sudden a colorful horn comes from her forehead and emits a powerful gust of wind around her.
Kajah: w-wow...that's beautiful
Rem stops and gets a little bit timid after hearing what Kajah said.
Rem: th-thank you.
Kajah: It was very beautiful Rem. My horn is just black.
Rem: you do have horns that's right, I remember seeing them in the bath before and when you drew your sword to turn into your Shadow Knight.
Kajah: yah...but that was me suppressing my horn. I don't really like letting it out do to the dark aura it emits.
Rem: oh I see. I understand
Kajah: well it's night and I think We should head up inside. Heh you to considering how much work we did here.
Rem: yah I agree. Well let's go shall we?
Kajah: don't have to tell me twice.
Rem and Kajah both start heading back inside the mansion.
Rem: I like it.
Kajah: Huh?
Rem: your Shadow Knight form. I like it. I think it suits you perfectly teehee.
Kajah: *blushes a little* th-thanks.
