--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inari
Alita and I immediately went on the defensive.Our anger instantly reaching new heights.We could feel Ash go through every option.He was trying to figure out what to do, how to protect his family, and how to protect us.He started going through so many options but slowly we could feel him going toward one option and then all of a sudden we were cut off.
Wha..
"Alita what's going on why can't we connect to Ash!"I yell.
"I don't know its like something is blocking us!"She says worried.
"This isn't good we have to find a way!That priest isn't here for anything good!"
"I know and I'm trying but it's like someone put up a roadblock in our soul paths there's nothing I can do!"
"Shit!!"
"Ash you remember Father Jacob right?"Ash's mom Kathrine says.
"Of course.How could I forget someone so small."Ash says with a smile.
Alita and I immediately stopped what we were doing and turned.That was Ash's voice but something was wrong.His voice seemed tinged with fake emotion and his smile sent a shiver down our spines.
"Ash the Father is taller than you."Ash's mother has a confused look.
"I meant he seemed like a short person growing up is all."Ash said with a smile full of mockery.The priest just gave a forced smile.
"Hello, Ash, it's nice to see you again.I would like to introduce a new member of the clergy.Meet Father Issac."Father Jacob says.
"Hello, Father bas-I mean Father Issac."I see both the priests eyes twitch at Ash's correction.
"Well, it's time for dinner so lets head to the dining room.Ash show them the way while I get the food."Kathrine says.
"Sure".Ash watches his mother go into the kitchen."Right this way Father Small Dick, Father Bastard."
"Keep making your little jokes while you can after tonight we will see how funny you are."Father Jacob snaps.
"Well you would know about little wouldn't you?"Ash mocks.
"Why you little shit I going to enjoy using you!"Father Issac sneers.
"Sorry dumb bastards aren't my type.Plus I'm no choir boy."
Both the priests looked at Ash with hatred and anger while Ash just kept a smile full of mockery.
"Inari it's no use I can't connect to Ash at all.The only thing we can do is wait until he's alone and try to talk to him."Alita says worry coating her words.
"We gotta do something!There's no way he's equipped to take on these two!He got lucky last time but this time they are most definitely prepared!"Im pissed how could this happen?
"We just have to see how this plays out and pray everything goes okay."She says with a sigh.
"Fuck!"I use one of Ash's favorite words.

Ashs mother returns and everyone takes a seat."Father why don't you lead us in grace?"she asks.
"Sure."He then starts to talk but it's not grace it's an incantation!Next thing you know there is a steak knife 1 centimeter from the priests forehead hovering in the air.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ash?????
"Now now little kit I thought we agreed that I would handle this."
"He was chanting something I couldn't let him hurt them!"Ash says.
"They are fine it seems to be a stasis spell of some kind.Now little kit let me take care of this my way.All you need to do is sit back and learn."
"Well kid the knife is a bit much what if someone got hurt?"Father Jacob says with a smile.
"I believe that was my intention needle dick."I reply.
"Alright that's going to stop now!As you can see we are in control and don't even bother with your little psychic trick, it won't work on us anymore.Now say my name."He snaps.
"Hold on hold on two more.Your dick is so ugly, it's like a pimple with a pulse.Your dick is so small, your choirboy took it to court and they threw it out for lack of evidence!"I say in a hurry.
"Enough!Do you think you are clever!I can end your family in a second!"He roars.
"Not clever just have access to the internet."I replied with a smile while waving my phone.I mean I could come up with some but who has the time to think these days?
"Still so annoying well soon you will learn to keep your mouth shut."He motions something to Bastard.Bastard gets up and takes a wicked looking dagger and holds it to Tim Jr's. throat.I feel the little kit explode in anger but manage to get him calmed down.
"Now we wouldn't want to do something dangerous now would we?"
"You need to learn respect and if we have to kill a few of your family members we will."Bastard says with a dark smile.
My eyes narrow in anger.I don't like being controlled.Especially by two little members of some worthless little gods religion.
"I'm listening but if you put a knife to my brothers neck again I will slaughter everyone you have ever known in front of you!"
The priests looked startled by this outburst but nodded then smiled."Good now that you know what's at stake we can continue.You see we have need of someone with your skills Rogue."
I just give him a bored look.
"You don't seem surprised?"
"Not hard to put together if you've seen me actually use my powers."I say.
"Right.Well after you ruined my plans and set those whores free I wanted to kill you and your entire family.But Issac decided you could be useful.A super in our pocket could help further our plans and all.Eventually I agreed after all you may have some connection to god if you were able to sever my connection to the whores."He then gives me an evil smile.

"Hmm so he has no idea that they are connected to me?That means we have some tricks he won't see coming.By the way why can't I hear the girls?"Ash asks.
"No need to worry little kit for now I have blocked them off they wouldn't approve of your decision to let me handle the situation.You know this all they do is try to control you after all."
"*sigh*Fine Darkness I won't bring it up but they are just as much apart of me as you are.So just as I have to accept you, you need to accept them.Also whats with the little kit?"
"You have to accept me because I am you.Just a part of you that you've kept walled off just like Lightning and ICE.We have been quite upset with those two.We wish to be whole but you doing as they say all the time is quite annoying.Also you are called little kit because that what you are.A young fox."I tell him
"Im weak against women you should know that."
"Agreed and we shall revisit this issue but we've missed quite a bit of what Smugly penis has said."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alita
"I've tried everything I can think of to talk to Ash but nothing has worked and now he's making a deal to work with this priest!"I cry out
"Now boy later tonight I want you to meet us at this address be sure not to be late we would hate for anything to happen to your family."Father Jacob replies.
"Of course not now release them and lets eat dinner shall we?"Ash says.
The priest recites another incantation and the family continues on like nothing ever happened.2 hours later the two priests decide to leave and Ash heads up to his room.
"Ash!What's going on with you how could you agree to work with him!And what happened why can't we connect to your soul!"I yell.
"So many questions Little chicken.But for now don't bother me I need to prepare."
"Chic-CHICKEN!!!Who the hell do you think you are calling an Arch Angel a Chicken!"
"I dont know Alita I think it suits you."Inari laughs.
"Coming from the hag fox."Ash pipes up.
"Hag!!Ok you little bastard you asked for it."
Inari starts to go at him but he turns and flicks both of us and we smash into the wall.Then he waves his hand and were bound by black tendrils.
"Alita I know what wrong with him now.And it's far worse than we imagined."Inari says.
"What is it?"
"He has something that makes him dangerous even among kitsune.The darkness element."
"What does that have to do with anything?"I ask confused.
"The darkness element is different than all the others.It corrupts and brings out the worst in a person.It's possible to win against it but few ever do.In fact as far back as I can remember only 2 ever have.I dont know how Ash activated it but if he lets it fully take over this city is done for."Inari replies with a scared look.
"It's that bad!?"
"It's worse..."
"You said that each element is part of a kitsune.That one has to accept them to be whole as a person.That each element is an important part of who they are!"I scream.How much has she held back!?
"I know but the darkness element is different.It only means that the kitsune is destined to cause great pain."
"You said that there were people who won?Why can't Ash?"
"They won but only after killing hundreds over the course of 300 years.Even then they decided to allow themselves to be killed because they couldn't live with what they did."She says with a saddened look.
I looked at her in horror.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ash
"I heard everything they said."
HAHAAHA.Do you think that will be you?Darkness laughs.
"Will it?"
"No.I would prefer to be part of you.But you have to earn it.You are far too fun to be locked up.Dont worry tonight all you need to do is learn one important thing."
"And that is?"
"That sometimes people need to die."
That shocked me to my core.
"Don't worry little kit it won't bother you as much as you think.Now watch and learn.How I use our abilities will be great practice material."
I dont know how he did it but he managed to make me look like something straight outta my fantasy books.I had your classic assassin look.With a black hood covering the top of my face and shoulders.The long sleeves with concealed daggers.A brown vest made of leather with a white shirt underneath..A black belt with pouches.Black leather pants and fingerless leather gloves.Finally I had dark boots that screamed ass kickers.
"Whats with the look and how did you do this."I say with awe.
"I figured youd need a look and with a name like Rogue why not this one.As to how I combined all of your clothes you had."Pride filled voice.
"Wait I have no more clothes!?"I hate shopping!
"Little Kit you have more than enough money."
"Thats not the point!!"
"Hush its time to head out."
I shut up but was still pissed as he jumped from the window to the front lawn.
"Now to take care of the little spies."He waved his hand and two guys appeared carried by black tendrils."Ok little kit watch and learn."Then he held his palm up and dark shadows started to engulf the two.Then when all you could see was a mass of black.He move my hand into a fist and the shadows crushed the two men into paste.
He let the shadows go and all you could see was a mangled mess of flesh and blood.He walked up to the bodies.
"This is only the start little kit."

Fire and Blood
There are a lot of stories about people reborn into a fantasy world but most such individuals seem to be young, inexperienced and forced to start from the bottom up. But who attempts to summon a nobody, expending vast magical power to do so? What if there is an effort to summon a champion of the celestial host and strip them of their free will, binding them by their True Names only to be foiled as they vacate themselves to follow possession by another? What if the one summoned from something approximating our own world is a veteran in her thirties who now finds herself in a form alien, powerful, but far from invulnerable? It involves a whole lot of fire.

8 103Talius
The two moons of Talius gleam with a hypnotic glow; Araius with the color of a cooling blue, and Kranos beaming in a gentle orange. Arairus obscures Kranos with his enormous celestial body, letting Kranos peek out only halfway. This means that it's the month of Gantelos, the season of cold that hovers over Talius for half a year. It also notifies the residence of this planet that the dreadful Fuune will rise from the deep snow, deep from beneath the crust every night and feast on the humans who inhabit this tundra-infested world.
