Reikas scooped up his dagger and turned, landing in the ground and striking a defensive pose...Then he saw that Sesshoumaru was on the ground. What in the...?He paused, staring at the demon. Is he...?
Cautiously, he approached, and poked at Sesshoumaru with a toe. "Wow...he's out cold." He bent down, and wiped his blades on the demon's sleeve.
"Lord Reikas, Lord Reikas, we're here!!" A squad of five angels came flitting in from behind the Seraph. Reikas turned.
"You have the worst timing, you know..." he said. "You're late. Restrain him and take him to the Angelic Stronghold in the West."
All five angels stopped in perfect vanguard formation. "You...beat him? I thought you needed help..." the point angel said.
"I thought so too...But, it doesn't matter anymore. He'd out cold. Take him prisoner. He's the son of the Taisho. Possibly dangerous..."
"Umm..alright..." The five broke ranks, corcling around the demon on the ground. A few cast suspicious glanced at the other demon nearby, Reiki.
"Don't mind him...he doesn't seem to be malevolent..."
"Al...right..." He five angels together conjured another light sphere around Sesshoumaru, and lifted him between them. Reikas watched them leave in a pentagon.
He turned back to Reiki. "There really is no reason for you to be here anymore..." He sheathed his daggers, and jogged over to the ruins of the ESB.

Reiki raised an eyebrow, and leaped up off the pile of rubble, landing on another, shorter one, then to the ground. "I didn't have a reason in the first place." He in formed Reikas, smirking.

Reikas glanced back, and shrugged. "Do as you will. You don't seem to be a threat to me, so I don't really care, demon." He leapt up on the rubble, got down on his hands and knees, and crawled through a small opening that led into a surprisingly large cavern of mangled steel, shattered glass, and broked concrete.
He dropped down to the floor, his boots crunching on the glass, and he began to make his way through the wreckage, carefully.
But, not carefully enough.

"WTF!!!" Reikas cursed loudly, staggering backward, his hands on his forehead. "Who the hell put a steel beam there?!" He glared up at a thick steel girder sticking out of a wall of rubble. It blended into the uniform gray background, and the angel had totally missed it.
"Grrr...Gah!" Ticked off and with a newly aquired headache, Reikas grabbed the beam and bent it back, into the wall! "There! Jeez...I'll bet Kratos hit that, too...Ow, man..."
Shaking his head, he continued on, now more cautious than ever.

Reiki snickered from behind him. It's not everyday you get to see a All Powerful Angel walk straight into something. He grinned, still following. However he was leaping from one pile of rubble to the next, to a beam, to another pile of rubble, instead of following on the ground.

Reikas whirled around, not realixing that Reikai had been behind him. "What the--did you follow me in here? What are you doing?" he asked, glaring up at the demon. He now had a slowly growing goose egg just above his right eye.

All that did was make Reiki laugh again. Usually it's kind of hard to have a straight face and be serious when you've run straight into something. "Yeah, I followed you. And what I'm doing is laughing." He grinned.

Reikas scowled. "Stop laughing at me! I didn't see the stupid beam, alright?!" His head really hurt.
He turned on his heel, and stormed away...right into another random jutting beam.
"DAMMIT!!!" he screamed, this time falling onto his butt. "What the hell is with this place?! By the gods!!!" He scrambled to his feet, and blasted the beam apart magically. "There!" He stomped forward once again. "When I find you, Kratos, you are so dead..." he muttered under his breath.

Reiki was sitting on a pile of rubble, laughing hysterically. "Kill him? You're here to save him aren't you?" He called after Reikas, still laughing.

"Shut UP!!" Reikas yelled without turning.
Suddenly, movement beside him. Reikas stopped, turning. He knelt down as he caught a flash of something white beneath all the gray.
It was Kratos! Reikas got down on hands and knees once again, and crawled through another small space in the rubble. There was the Seraph, lying on his side, unconscious, with a small pools of blood beneath him.
Reikas snickered. The angel had two huge bruises on his forehead.
"Hey, Kratos, get up, you lazy bum!" he yelled.
"Mmmm...ng..." Kratos groaned, and shifted. "Go away."
The Seraph snorted. This...could be fun. He could see that the blood was from a cut on his shoulder. Kratos must have fallen asleep sitting up, then slid down to his side onto a piece of glass.
Gently, he poked the side of Kratos' head. "Hey, Kratty-boy...Naptime's over...!"
"But I wanna sleep..." Kratos batted away the hand absently, waving his own around. He was still unconscious.
"Hey, get UP!!" Suddenly, Reikas smacked Kratos across the face.
The sleeping Seraph shot up so quickly that he hit his head on the low roof of the small alcove. "DAMN, I'm up, I'm up!!" he yelled, cringing and putting both hands on top of his head.
Reikas snorted with laughter. "Ha!!"
Kratos opened one eye, baring his teeth angrily...Then, when he saw who it was, he grinned. He pointed at Reikas' forehead. "...You hit those same stupid steel beams, didn't you?"

"Yeah, it was halarious, you shoulda seen it." Reiki was leaning against the wall next to the hole Reikas had crawled through. He had his arms crossed and was still grinning.

Kratos snorted again. "Who's that?" he asked. "C'mon, Reikas, let's get out of here. I'll kill you later, when you force me back to the Angelic Stronghold, for waking me up."
Reikas raised an eyebrow. "Hmph. I think you'll find a nice present when I force you back. You may forget all about me." The angel turned, and Kratos was presented with a wonderful view of Reikas' butt. He shifted positions, and jettisoned the Seraph out with a powerful kick from behind. Reikas went flying face-first into a solid concrete block inches to Reiki's right.
"That was for later, in case this present of yours really does make me forget about you!" Kratos called. He protracted his wings, and glided out of the hole smoothly. He stood fluidly, gazing at the newcomer. "A demon? Why has Reikas come with a demon?" he asked.
The Seraph was on the ground, writhing. "DAMN YOU, KRATOS!!!" he yelled at the top of his lungs, his face buried in his hands.
Kratos looked down, and kicked the Seraph lightly. "Oh, stuff it, Reikas. You shouldn't have come to find me. I was enjoying that dream you so rudely woke me from." A red welt was forming of Kratos' left cheek from Reikas slap, accenting the two bruises on his forehead that matched the other Seraph's.
he turned his attention back to the demon before him. "So, you are...?" he asked, eyeing the creature.

Reiki was a little busy trying to quit laughing. After a few moments, he slowly got it under control. "Reiki." He replied, still snickering quietly. Angels were halarious. "Could you guys do that again? I'm enjoy it." He grinned.

"I'm Kratos. And, I don't think Reikas would appreciate diving head-first into solid concrete a second time...Otherwise, I'd glady kick him in the butt again. I was enjoying it, too. He needs it."
"Oh, shut up!" Reikas staggered to his feet, lowering his hands.
Kratos pointed at him. "Hey, you're nose is bleeding!"
Reikas growled. "Oh, yeah?!" Swiftly, he pulled a dagger from his boot and slashed the other Seraph across the cheek. "HA! YOU'RE FACE IS BLEEDING!!!!"
"Ouch!! Jeebus, Reikas, chill out!" Kratos staggered backwards. "You almost hit my eye!"
"So? You broke my nose!"
"It's an improvement."
"What was that?!?" Reikas was not amused.
"You heard m--Hey, HEY!!" Reikas had launched himself at Kratos with both daggers drawn. "Stop attacking me!!" Kratos grabbed Reikas' wrists. The pair struggled, driving Kratos back until he hit a wall. "Oi, Reiki, a little help here?" he called.

Reiki grinned, "Help? You look like you're enjoying yourself so much though." He teased. "Alright, fine." He snickered quietly. A black misty substance appeared between the two Angel's. It had tinges of red in it. It seemed to materialze, and the moment it did, Reikas was no longer pinning Kratos against a wall, but was instead pushing against the black mist, which suddenly sucked him in, and vanished.
It reappeared about ten feet in the air, and it was suddenly raining Reikas.

"WHOA--mph!!!" Reikas hit the ground hard.
Kratos snorted. "Nice...What was that?" he asked, glancing at Reiki. He walked forward, and leaned over Reikas. "Oi, you okay?"
"Define--okay..." Reikas pushed himself up off the floor, glaring up at Reiki.
"You're okay." Kratos turned, and glanced at Reiki. "Very nice. Cool mist. Again, what was it?"
Reikas stood slowly, scowling.
