Felines of station square

"Not even close" azrael said "he's my step brother"

~

Sylus slammed his elbow into venom while trying to regain his sight

"He is your brother none the less." smiled Chikanere putting a hand on Azrael's shoulder, "And that would make you other brother also related to him, would it not?"

~

Venom staggered by the blow, kicked Sylus in the crotch.

No not by blood" Az said brushing he hand away.

~

Sylus did the same move at the exact same time making them both go down

Venom K tumbled back as Sylus had hit hard then expected.

~

"Why are you deffencive?" smirked Chikanere, "Does your mortal heart fight the demonic part of you?"

"This is the demon. Chikanere, the mortals taught me more than you'll ever know. I chose this life. I married an angel for azegels sake"

"A fallen Angel." said Chikanere, "A most dangerous kind. Will she turn on you or will you on her?"

~

"Even if you are Right." said Rhine, "There is not much that anyone can do. But that is why I put that safety precaution that it this new body is harmed that it will affect your former body. In effect, I bound Sylus to you."

Azrael growled. "She's not fallen. She's a pure angel"

~

"Again you bound him to the black lion not me" Leo said. "I was one step ahead"

"But Angels and demons can never mix, my dear Azrael." said Chikanere, "The power that will be unleashed can ruin this whole world weather you like it or not. You son is now the key stone to the fate of the world. If he ever attains the power you wish for him, he will bring the world to ruin. From what I sence of your past, This Esper is one such being."

~

"And how long will it be before the black lion rouses?" asked Rhine ask she left her spire with Max/Leo's prism in tow.

"Like I will tell you dear Rhine "

~

"That's why me and cilia are training him. I know what will come"

"So you are willing to bring about the death of the world?" smiled Chikanere, "Because it is the power that is inside him that will do it. The more you train him, the more distructive the power will be."

~

Venom K cursed "A powerful demon resorting to such a cheap shot? Why not attack me at full strength?!"

mAzrael growled. "There's no avoiding it chikanere even the void will be undone when my son gains his true power. Allowing the world to start anew"

~

The lion grinned. "Who you calling a demon lord of poison" the black lion came out shedding the demon parts

"The void is eternal." said Chikanere, "It spans many dimentions and different worlds. By your constant training of your son, you would distroy the very fabric of exsitance as we all know it. For once he taps into the void, nothing will be safe."

~

"What is this new ploy Imp?" snarled Venom K, Trying to show a mortal side?"

The imp is gone. I am the black lion"

"Right." snarled Venom K, "And I'm the ruler of the burning hells. Give me a break! I'll smash you hard and send you back to your demonic mistress!"

The black lion stood there. "Are all the dusk emerald beings this stupid?"

Venom K growled as he charged towards the black lion.

High above, Rhine was just arriving with Max/Leo in tow, still trapped in the prism.

~

"Now you understand the pridicament you've placed yourself in, Azrael." said Chikanere, "To save the exsitance of all world, you must either dam your son to a life as an demon, or distroy him to protect what is good."

Well what do you know" Leo said

The black lion smirked "your fate is sealed" he grabbed venom and slammed him on his back.

~

Azrael growled. "I'd damn myself before I'd kill my son"

The mustard color of Venom K faded away as the midnight blue returned to the skunk's fur.

"Well..." said Rhine with a bit of shock, "You've done well at placing Myrkky down...But you should have never been able to do so...Why is that you were able to do it?"

~

"Oh by the way..." said Chikanere, "Did you noticed that four of your tails have desintagrated?"

Azrael tenced  "what!" He growled. "What did you do"

~

"Get rid of sylus and put Leo back in here with me and I'll tell you my secret" the black lion said

"Leo already has told me." said Rhine wickedly, "A Demon's bargin is never a sure thing. Right Sylus?"

~

"You see Azrael," said Chikanere with an insane laughter, "This void is unique. While I've been keeping you busy here, Sylus has been draining your demonic powers from you. And one of the things that he has taken is your ability to leave. I am your only hope to escape this void. Soon Sylus will not need the black lion and he will be revived by your power. But it you will still live only you shall fall to a mortal non demon."

Azrael smirked. "He already has enough energy"

Sylus appeared in the void. He was a demonic bull. Smirking. "Mistress I have returned"

~

The black lion smirked. Shattering rhines prison. "He's gone Rhine. "

Leo smiled. "We cut chikanere a deal knowing azrael was the key to bring back  sylus"

Rhine was at a loss for words.

~

"Would you care to finish your meal before we return to the mortal relm, Sylus" smiled Chikanere.

Then turning to Azrael, added "And all because that wonderful Leo gave me the oppertunity to drain out your demon powers. What a friend. Hahahahahaha!"

Azrael smiled. "He cut sylus a deal as well."

"Sorry mistress but I must save him for another time." He snapped his fingers and azrael vanished from the void. "He's the only once with the power to match the brat max. I've seen it first hand the boys power first hand"

~

Leo smiled. "What's wrong witch, black cat got your tongue?"

The black lion smirked. "Now I believe you have a thief to catch" he said pointing in the harbors direction.

"So you betrayed me!" snarled Chikanere.

~

"Humph!" snorted Rhine, "Not until I get Myrkky for the skunk! His body must burn!"

"Betrey you no. Set the field for a show unlike any other yes" sylus grinned. "I've played them all."

~

"Now I can't  let you do that." A sword came to her neck giro right behid her
