The icy cold winds of Vonhalo sliced through the raw skin of Lupin's newly forged body; he could feel the stinging pain but did not move from where he stood atop the highest peak of Mount Vanholo. " I know you are here, Black Rain, and I am pleased that you seek me at this time," Lupine said, his voice low and menacing as Kurio ame walked across the sky panels of crackling black lighting formed under his feet.
Upon stopping across from Lupine, the lighting slowed and became a solid platform. Kurio ame was silent for a moment, his breathing deep and slow "The air here." motioning around him, " It is pure, untouched by evil for so long. I almost forgot how disgusting it feels in my lungs." Kurio ame said, closing his hand as he did; the sky darkened over the village of Vex, Snowtown and the city of Vonhalo with were at the base of the mountain
"What are you doing?" Lupine said, a hint of fear in his voice. Kurio ame looked out at the thriving city and the villages below. The people are living there going about their daily living normal lives as they always have.
Kurio ame spoke to Lupin without facing him. "Lupine, what would you like to see a portion of my power." Lupine nodded and watched as Kurio ame opened his hand. In interest, the black clouds cracked with red lighting, and rain as black as night fell to the earth. Lupine watched in horror as the people there screamed in unimaginable pain as the skin began to melt from their bones with each pouring rain droplet; in less than an hour, all that remained was the bleached white bones of those who once lived there.
Lupin looked at Kurio ame with a sense of aw and a hint of fear but spoke calmly to him, " What do you gain from helping me? Your power seems quite capable of destroying any other Multiverse or reducing Vermillion city to ash, but instead, you chose to help me in my goals. Why?"
Kurio ame was silent for a moment then said, " I seek Xenoventaris" Lupin froze upon hearing that name. Even though Lupin had never seen his face or had met him, the sound of his name brought back memories long forgotten.
Kurio ame took notice of this and said calmly, " you realize the name, but you don't know why and I can guess that you don't know of his initial role in your creation." As Kurio ame was forming his next word Lupin grabbed him by the throat, his eyes blazing with blue hellfire, black streaks of blood ran down Kurio ame neck as Lupions razer sharp nails dug into his throat
" Think carefully of what you say next, Mortal. Your powers are impressive, but they are nothing compared to my own."Lupine said, baring his long sharp fangs
Kurio ame replied weakly, " I have nothing left to say, Master, I will follow your commoned to my dying day." Lupine released him, and Kurio ame gasped for breath as Lupine opened his arch angel wings Kurio ame gritted his teeth; he knew that attacking Lupine would be foolish; finally catching his breath, Kurio ame said: " Lupine, can you at least tell me what your plan is so that I know what to do." Lupine closed his wings and looked at him thoughtfully, thinking over his options; then, bending down, he said,
" Very well, But first you must tell me."Lupine said angerly Kurio ame could feel Lupines low hot breath that smelled of ash and burned flesh burning its way into his nose as Lupine spoke softly close to Kurio ames face " How do you know my true name?" Lupine, his voice hissing with malice and bloodlust
Kurio ame was silent for a moment, unsure how to answer, becoming impatient with intense speed. Lupine thurst Kurio ame down onto the ground. The impact broke the earth into a massive crater. Kurio ame coughed up blood as he stood up, his torso scared from the impact "What do you care? You have cast that name away!" Kurio ame cried out as he drew his white Ash'shar're Dragon duel blades from his back.
Lupine stopped and stared at the pure white blades gleam in the late afternoon sun. " That is impossible, and No one can wield Ash'sha're blades except ..." He stopped. Lupines gaze turned dark as he drew his Ash'sha're blade
" Kurio ame, You are no Bladewalker! Who have you killed and stolen their holy swords!" Lupine cried out Kurio ame looked at Lupine darkly and said plainly, " Ryi'june and I don't know your true name. But I can see that once you were a Bladewalker, and you had or still have a connection with Ryi'june Dra'ghoul. Now we can fight it out knowing that neither of us will win, or you can tell me your true name and what your plan is, so I know how to help you. I give you my word; no one else will know."
Lupine put his blades away and replied, " Very well, I trust you with this information but be warned breaking my trust will result in your end." Kurio ame nodded, putting his blades back " understood." Lupine paused for a moment, then said, " My true name is...
