The Cathedral (Ministry of Death)

╔══════════════╗☢╔══════════════╗


Ganta's eyes flicked to the side as the air suddenly stirred only to redirect to the entrance where a man now stood.  He immediately recognized him to be Wei, as Emilia had informed, from the event in New Tombstone.  He turned to face the individual as he made a beeline to Emilia.  The heat from his body made the sticky substance coating him give off a light steam.  He watched quietly as the two began to speak to one another.   Then Emilia went on to introduce him to Wei.  In return he received an introduction from the the man with the new information being only his last name.  He didn't feel the need to introduce himself to the man since, in a way, Emilia already did.  He just gave the man a slight nod in return.  Then he looked to the side at the mess he had made.  The whole place was wrecked and coated in the remains of the creatures he had killed.  Whoever this place had belonged to would not be pleased.  At least, he assumed as much.  He looked back to Emilia, "Request to transfer combat data?" he decided that it would be in their best interest to share what he had learned during his fight with these creatures.

As Egil drew nearer to the cathedral on his motorcycle, he could tell that something was amiss...the door was ajar, and there was a general sort of...uneasiness around the place. In fact, as he got closer, he could see...were those holes in the front walls. His heart immediately leapt up into his throat and he nearly swerved a bit as they drove--had the cathedral been attacked while they had been away? He drove up to the cathedral as quickly as he could and parked--letting Crispin get off before he got off, letting the bike fall over, having forgotten to put up the kickstand, he ran to the doorway and quickly moved just inside--only to see the remains of tentacles monsters strewn everywhere, three people he didn't know, and no sign of any of his teammates that they had left there. His eyes slowly widened, and he felt like he couldn't breathe. The scent of blood hit him in the face like a smack, and he couldn't help but take a step back. He tried to speak, but his throat felt tight--what was this? What was happening here? And..was it his fault for leaving...?

---------------------------------.-----------------------------
Crispin felt his smile die more and more the closer they got to to the cathedral. The first clue that something wasn't right was that the door was open. As they moved closer, Crispin inspected the building, noticing holes that he knew hadn't been there before. The whole place seemed to be covered in the dank, heavy aura of death he normally found so comforting.
Crispin got off of the bike, pulling the vita out of his pocket. The device seemed to turn on by itself. He waited for Egil to park the bike, following after him to the door as he mentally clicked away at the device. As he stood inside the doorway, Crispin looked up, taking in the strewn bodies of the tentacle monsters with an innate half dead envy. Someone had found their peace today. He tore his gaze from the monstrous corpses to the three strangers whom seemed to be the buildings only occupants. Crispin stood in front of Egil reflexively. A quick glance out of the corner of his eye told him-his....boyfriend.... was taking this as well as expected. He put a hand behind his back, holding it out for the other boy to hold. It wasn't much, but it was some kind of support. He half glanced at Egil, holding up his vita with a message across its screen, angling it so only Egil could see.
Father Death Said to meet at Skulls Pass earlier. Maybe we should check for everyone there?

Egil saw Crispin pull himself in front of him, and when the whitette saw the blonde's hand, he began to reach for it--but stopped as he saw the message on the Vita's screen, letting out a quiet gasp.
"We were supposed to meet them there..." A million thoughts ran through his head--it had been his idea to leave. He had been the one keeping them there so long. And it was because of him that Laina had stayed, too. All of them were late, all because of him, as far as he was concerned--and he was daunted by the idea that people might have gone into battle and gotten hurt because of his absence. His breathing began to hitch a bit--and he abruptly turned, heading back towards his motorcycle, throwing off his casual clothes in the process and opening up the bag attached to the bike, tugging back on his combat attire before hopping back onto the bike again. "W-We need to go--!" He waited for Crispin to get onto the bike, then pulled out of the area, driving as fast as he could in the direction of Skull's Pass--and just hoping that he wasn't too late.

Wei scoffed as the two ran off somewhere else. Once Emilia mention alternative areas, his ears perked. He slowly dragged his head towards the armored woman. He had determination, fire, in his eyes. As if he was searching for something.
"Tell me, do you know what ever became of Josephine Beaumont..." He spoke softly, in fact it was rather soothing. Wei's no angry voice sounded like a weather-worn concern family member. It perhaps revealed the true feelings of how he felt towards the Suicide Squad. Regardless, Wei's calming gravel posed a question....Where was Josephine Beaumont?

Ganta was alarmed by Emilia's reaction to him.  So the remains of these creatures had an unpleasant smell, he noted as she told him that he needed to wash it off.  With nowhere to currently do so, it would need to wait.  In the meantime he went ahead and sent the combat data to DAMA.  He looked up and to the door when he picked up two individuals having arrived.  Then as quickly as the came, they left.  He lowered an eyebrow not knowing who they were but saved their faces.  He looked back to Emilia when she suggested leaving but Wei ended up speaking to her afterwards.  He just continued to stand there as the data finished sending.

"Krieg intelligence shows that she entered numerous places, here being one of them. My fath-- Emperor Xiaohan was with them. If not for a moment..." He said a slight blush to his cheeks came about when he offhandedly mention his 'father'. His sentimentality to Cao was..surprising for a clone. Jolyne being a notable example of a clone was not so fun to deal with.
However Wei showed a bit of, humanism differently than most. Whether it was by Cao's DNA that ran through him or whatever the case. Wei attempted to hide his humanity. If only for a short while.
"However reports are lost after such events..."

Ganta was still silently standing about as the two conversed.  In the meantime, he continued to look about and store details about this place.  But then Emilia finally called out to him.  He turned around and walked up to her, "Do you need something?" he asked.  With what just occurred, he had quite a few questions himself but he wouldn't ask.  For now, his attention was back on Emilia.

There was a dull noise outside the cathedral as what appeared to be an aircraft of sorts approached.  Dantalion was seated comfortably in the driver's seat with Liimu, probably petrified, behind him.  "Oh?" noticed the front door ajar and a vehicle outside.  "It appears that there is someone already here," he informed Liimu as he brought the craft to a stop and landed it steadily.  "Push the button to undo the seat belt," he stated as he undid his and opened the door to the open air.  He stepped out inhaling, "Do you smell that?" his question directed towards the absolutely putrid scent that hung in that air.  It was definitely coming from inside the cathedral.  "You okay?" he asked just to be sure she wasn't shaken up too much from the ride before they'd go in to investigate.

During the whole flight, Liimu was in a fetal position. She wanted nothing to do with this. She wanted nothing at all with it. As she soon the doors opened, she roughly removed the belt and pounced out, taking several breaths in and out before regaining herself.
"What did you-?"
she then stopped, and sniffed the air. She looked around and then back to Dantalion. "You're right...there was a battle here too...I smell...death...which shouldn't be a new smell but...this is different.." she pulled out her stone knives.  "Approach with caution..." she stopped and looked like she was praying, and suddenly, a psychic wolf appeared next to her. She started to walk slowly toward the Cathedral.

Suddenly, a small object could be seen in the sky. The speed it was coming in was unimaginable- And there seemed to be a trail of a black liquid type of substance following it. The object grew nearer and nearer, flying towards the Cathedral.

Liimu was about to get to the door, when her brain pinged, and she turned. She saw something coming. It was small, but it was coming.
"What the-?"
she got a closer look. Was that a person? Flying? Either way, she ran toward the object. She had to wait a little while for the target to get closer, but soon, it did. Liimu put out her hand, activating her telekinesis, and then grunted as the object slowed. Liimu sighed and put the object...no...person down. Huh? "Dantalion...do we know this person. He is badly wounded.." she said, looking over him, carefully examining his body.   "These are burns...3rd degree...cuts and bruises...by the Earth Mother...what happened?" she looked at the other man for an answer.

Dantalion looked to Liimu as she quickly made her way out of the vehicle and steadied herself before picking up on the scent he mentioned.  Then she proceeded to arm herself and summon a wolf before cautiously approaching the cathedral.  He pulled off his gloves and tucked them in his pocket as he trailed behind her preparing for a possible battle.  What happened next was something he did not expect.  He looked up as Liimu did to see the falling object as she slowed down the fall.  He approached her as she asked him about this person, as it turned out to be.  "I'm not entirely sure if he is with us however, I did see this person in the Cathedral earlier as a guest."  He continued to watch as she looked over their body and saw all the wounds.  "I have no idea.  Here," he moved closer, "I'll patch him up."  However, before he could do anything, the male jolted up with a start and began vomiting violently.  Then the kid began shouting somewhat incoherently but he did pick up on Kraven's name.  There must've been a battle going on and he was stuck in the middle of it.  First things first, his tone was serious, "Please, you're going to need to let me fix you up.  Then we will do what we can to help.  Would you allow me to?" he asked seeing that amount of injury and blood loss would make the sanest man delirious so of course it did to the small male.

Ganta watched Emilia as she had DAMA scan the gooey remains that he was currently covered in.  He lifted an eyebrow when he heard her say that the stuff was attempting to regenerate.  In response, he began heating up his body in an attempt so burn whatever was still on him.  With this, the smell of the stuff burning got worse but he didn't want it on him anymore upon hearing this bit of information.  Then his alert jumped back up when she informed him of others outside.  He was still in defensive and he approached the doorway cautiously.  "Shall we engage?" he questioned since he did not recognize the individuals and they were definitely not like the creatures he had just killed.

Liimu looked frightened as the boy started to vomit. It was far worse then she thought.
"Calm down! You are in need of care. Hold still."
she said, and took off her coat to put her over him. She looked at Dantalion. "We should get home...if there are people there, we can hold them off. It will be easy." she said and looked at her wolf. The wolf went forward and into the back of the Cathedral. It started to growl as it smelled people inside. Liimu felt a pang in her head.   "There is someone inside..."

Liimu listened to Crona's crazy story. It was not sitting with her well.
"If what you say is true, we'll go support them. YOU must rest. Your body has suffered many wounds, and likely they are internal and external as well."
she looked at Emilia and Ganta, glaring at them. "Thank you yes, but this is property of the Deathworshippers. Please leave our home. I will only warn you once." she slowly picked up Crona, craddling him in her arms.   "Come on...let's see if Mocha can help..." she started to walk inside.

Dantalion looked over to Liimu as she also attempted to comfort the boy.  Then he looked back to the cathedral after she informed him that there were in fact others inside.  It was then that an female walked out to them.  He stood up straight in response as the woman informed them of the condition of the cathedral.  He lifted an eyebrow in response, "Is that so?"  Now he would have went on further to question her, but he was interrupted by Crona's distressed shouting.  His eyes widened as he took in the jumbled information in regards to the condition of their superiors.  This male was not listening to reason despite Liimu's attempts to calm him.  With irritation, his eyes lit up in a bright green hue as he spun around to seize the boy by his arms.  "There is nothing I hate more than foolishness!" He forced the boy's larger lacerations shut quickly and unpleasantly before dropping his arm and turning away.  He held his clawed hands over his face breathing deeply.  "L-Let's look around inside," he replied quietly before walking towards the building.
