Infinity: Rising of the Soul Weavers

*Hoang - Run Back To You (feat. Alisa) *

"Hehe," Liz chuckled as she got Raven's approval to join them on their trip. "Are we bringing clothes and stuff with us, or anything else for that matter?"

"Oi, you're bringing us with you!" Suddenly, a voice called from the sky as light pink hair covered Raven's vision. 

Landing beside them on the rooftop, Aella smiled as she tried to pat Raven's head, who instantly jumped away.

Frowning playfully, Aella let it go for now. "Me and Zeru are coming with you. We've already told you that we're sticking around. We just went to secure the house and make sure Noah and some other people with powers were given the new guardian roles."

Landing softly near them, Zeru's dark cyan hair fluttered in the air as he nodded as well. "I want to protect you too, for what you've done. So, I'll be keeping you company." He smiled.

"Mistress!" A childish voice called out as the metallic door was opened once more. "We'll be joining you too!" 

It was the doll-sized man in the white suit that spoke as he stood on Ian's shoulder. Even though he looked similar to his old self, he was now more similar to a chibi kid-doll that can be said to be adorable. Yet that description wasn't accurate in Raven's eyes.

Ian simply nodded since his plan was simply following the archon candidates and observing them. He couldn't let them leave his sight.

Seeing them, especially the white suit doll, Raven gritted her teeth. Noticing that, Liz looked down while biting her lower lip. "Is it okay if-"

"No," Raven simply said as her mood did a 180 to the worse. "While you were under control when you did what you did, he wasn't," she clenched her fists. "The only reason he's still alive is because he hadn't harmed anyone directly, and that he's your follower now meaning he's harmless."

"Who do you think you are to speak to my mistress in this tone of voice?" He asked in his childish voice. 

Even though he remembered his little torture session just recently, he wasn't the type to tolerate any disrespect towards his mistress, coming from strong person or not.

Flickering in space and reappearing in front of Ian with her glowing golden eyes, some black matter suddenly splashed in the air and on Ian's face as Raven squished the chibi kid's body.

Watching it regenerate, she smiled sadistically. Feeling the air around her getting colder only contributed in making her grin wider. "Let's have some fun shall we?" She asked in a terrifying tone.

Looking down at him in her hands, her golden aura condensed around him as it formed a cube of sorts.

Without much of a word, golden blades were created inside the cube as they started chopping on the chibi kid's body.

Even though the surface was bright gold in colour, it was still relatively transparent, making it possible for others to see through.

Dark matter was vigorously being mixed with the golden aura as if whatever was inside was being prepared to be served as a smoothie.

"Raven!" Suddenly Axane's voice knocked everyone out of their trance. They were all watching Raven intently both in utter surprise and disbelief.

No one, especially Maria and Kayla, had expected her to chuckle or smile in such a dark manner that they were left speechless.

Shaking her head, Raven looked back at everyone as if just realising what she was doing. Looking back and forth between the golden cube and the group, she decided to leave the doll inside to suffer some more.

"Are you okay?" Axane asked while touching Raven's forehead and cheeks. She had mistakenly thought that you can tell if something is wrong with humans or soul weavers by testing their temperature in those areas. "Why did you flare your mana like that? I could feel your anger and sadness… are you ok?"

'Oh no… How did I lose control in such a trivial manner? Kay?' she asked for help since she was surprised Kayla hadn't warned her.

'I have tried,' Kayla said honestly, 'but… this wasn't you wanting souls or anything like that, this was you wanting to kill… that's all. I'm sorry I was confused and didn't know what else to do other than shout in your mind, but you didn't seem to care.' she was worried.

Shaking her head, Raven apologized for everyone while sitting back at her spot. "I'm sorry I was just a little bit mad…"

Not giving a chance for anyone to comment, she chose to continue preparing for their upcoming trip.

She argued a little bit that Zeru and Aella should refrain from joining them because of their condition and how they need the Erem Fruit, but they argued back that herself and Kayla can make another tree. 

Being as worried about Raven as she was, Kayla supported that notion and said that it's easier to plant an Erem Tree now that she has the blueprint.

Sighing softly, Raven understood and didn't argue back. Instead they focused on practical planning. 

They needed clothes, but they couldn't carry suitcases with them, in addition, they needed something to communicate with since they obviously wouldn't have reception in the Demon Plane for their phones to work.

"Hehe, I have the solution for your problems, mortals! Bow to me and I shall be merciful and bestow upon you some of my wisdom! Wuhahaha" Kayla said as she gave her best evil laugh.

She wasn't tired nor was she high from sugar. No, she was merely trying to brighten up the situation since everyone seemed so serious after what had happened.

Lifting her eyes to look into everyone's, they suddenly all burst out laughing as she felt the tension disappearing from the air.

'Phew, this is a success for me!' she cheered in her mind.. 'Alright, now to show off the work I do with Parallel Processing and Thought Acceleration during my spare time!' she thought happily as a wide smile appeared on her face.
