Wings? - Part 3, Toshi Hijikata has fun in hell.

[Zer00]

"NOW!" He mutters to himself as he takes a strafing jump to his left, evading the chain.
"Phew... that nearly.. AHHHHHH" He screams out with pain, apperantly, Toshi forgot
that chains werent arrows, they return back and sometimes hit what is in the way.

He quickly arises, to find himself again facing that Kyton which is spinning the chain
at a menacing speed.
"Not time for pain... Pain comes after victory" he tells himself while smirking at the Kyton.


Suddenly, Toshi stares at the Kyton with the oddest face, as someone who is constupated,
"Come on wings... Work!" he mutters as he tries to flap his new wings.

Laughing at him, the Kyton sends a flail headed chain at Toshi's direction,
"Ahhh... Work.... Work..." He tries to flap his wings only to get hit on the chest by the chain and get thrusted back onto a wall.

"Ugh... That thing... I cant fight it without a weapon..." he mutters while laying prone on the ground holding to his chest.

Rising slowly, he watches the Kyton spin the chain once again, this time the chain has a blunt edge, like some kind of a small hammer tied to a chain.

Breathing heavily and holding his chest, Toshi looks at the Kyton with a desperate look. "Maybe this time... if I just let it act as an instinct..." he mutters.

The Kyton throws the hammer-headed chain at Toshi.
Suddenly his wings contract and cover his front, the chain hits yet bounces off the
wings to a different direction.

"This is my chance... NOW" he mumbles and storms towards the Kyton.

The Kyton swings Toshi's sword in an attempt to hit him, Toshi dodges the blade and
in an odd yet bold move, he rams his horns into the Devil's flesh, piercing through
its flesh and causing it to drop the sword and fall down to its knees for a moment.

Toshi picks up his sword, spits, and looks at the kneeling Kyton,
"You chose the wrong bastard to mess with, Idiot".

As he raises his sword for the kill, preparing to slash the Kyton's head down.

"That is enough, Hijikata" Suddenly, a familier voice is heard.

He turns his head and sees the Erinyes which he has already met.
"You're late, I was sent to make sure that you arrive", she speaks.

He lowers his sword kicking the Kyton to the ground, "Consider yourself lucky, chain freak", he growls at the Kyton.

Wiping off some sweat, He places the sword in the scabbard over his back, he then marches along with the Erinyes Towards Mephistopheles' halls.

As they approach the grand halls of the Archdevil, Toshi looks around at the frozen planes of Cania.

"Is it always like this here?" He asks the Erinyes.
"What do you mean by that, Hijikata?" She answers.
"This place.. This Hell... Being frozen" He replies.
She chuckles slightly, "Yes, it has, toy, now dont interrupt me with other stupid questions
such as these" She looks at him and speaks with a Patronizing voice.
"Hmph". He twitches his face at her, "So be it, <Kara-Turan> Wench", he mutters.

About an hour passes by, Toshi looks at the Erinyes again, examening her wings.

"What is it?" She asks aggressivly.
"The Wings... Can it be used for flying?" He asks.
"What kind of stupid question is that? do you think you have them as a decoration?" She replies.
"No... Its just that I couldnt understand how, that is all" He answers.
"You'll learn, eventually, or you'll die trying" She smirks and chuckles.
"Heh", He replies while stretching his forhead for a moment.
"So why wont we fly there?" He asks again.
"Are you daft? I can use them, but you cannot, and I'm not about to carry you all the
way to the Archdevil's halls" She replies with a patronizing tone.
He growls, "Just... Stuff it." he answers.
She chuckles in a sadistic tone, "Very well, Toy Hijikata", She smirks.

They approach the Archdevil's hall, crossing a bridge to the gates of the keep.

[Nyarlathotep]

Good stuff...makes me regret that Toshi got chased out of Selgaunt for dwarfacide, seems like I missed out on meeting an interesting character.
I'm looking forward to seeing Toshi get caught up in the plots of the devil Mephistopheles(also great choice of fiend for such a Faustian plot ).
