"Welcome to Makuto's Emporium. Where I have all which you seek."
"Wow…" Eyes sparkling from all of the weapons and potions loitered around the walls, Samson paused at the shriek and outcry of some of the animals in the shop.
"Evening Lord Makuto." Said Abbott with a bow. "I am Abbott The Omega of the Red Letter."
Walking from behind the counter, Makuto strode over to the shop's door, closing and locking it. "It appears my merchandise has arrived earlier than expected." Inspecting the carrier of his package the shop owner's head bobbed up and down. "You must be one phenomenal warrior to be able to escort these items."
Handing over the goods with a smile Abbott shrugged his shoulders. "I am capable of protecting myself."
Placing his merchandise on the counter Makuto shook his head grinning from ear to ear, hearing the whispers of the magical items beneath the scarlet cloth which concealed them. "I'm sure you are capable of much more than that." Walking to the back room the shop owner came back with a wine colored pouch. "I believe you should find this suitable for the energy utilized to make this journey."
Accepting the pouch Abbott bowed with gratitude. "Thank you."
"Gratitudes are in my favor brother. I thank you for the deliverance of my merchandise. If there's anything I could accommodate you with let me know." Extending his arms to the vast shop he called Makuto's Emporium the shop owner bowed. "Pick whatever it is that you like and I Makuto will show you favor."
"Maybe another moment." Said Abbott scanning the shop for his disciple. "Our day have yet begun and i need not to waste it with idleness."
"I understand." Bowing, Makuto scooped up his goods. "Please visit at any moment you wish."
"Thank you." Abow, facing Abbott, browsed the store in search of his Abhah.
Cycling through jars of floating eyes, beaks, arms and other organs of animals Samson jerked at the tap of approaching feet. "Quite fascinating isn't it?" Abbott asked taking a gander at the array of animal parts knowing the multitude of options that any one of them offered. "To be able to use the instruments of the divine itself."
"What do you mean?"
"Just that these items will be transformed to magic, potions, barriers, or even become one with the patron." Smiling at the twisted confused expression of his disciple Abbott shook his head. "It's time to leave and create our next tale."
"Can it be one with demons?" Asked Samson
"If that is what you wish." Replied Abbott pulling out a pendant with a scarlet gem nestled in the caress of a dragon of gold. "But first allow me to contact Scarlet X and let them know of my transaction.
~Village of Tumaini Mwasho~
"This is the village you love so much." Bursting into laughter Molmet shook his head. "All there is, is stick and stone. I guess you Ruachs yet remain primitive." Descending from the heavens, interrupting a song and dance the demon waved as if he were on stage.. "Worry not for I Molmet have come. Worship me and you shall survive. Reject me and." Molmet threw Tia to the ground. "End up like your elder."
"Elder!" Shouted a vanilla coated woman with curly gold locks. Running to Tia's aide the villager scooped her cold body into her arms. Looking up from a tap on her shoulder both of them nodded at each other then their third member. Saying no words as she rose the woman stood and presented the body to the rest of the villagers.
Rotating his head watching the villagers stare at the body in silence Molmet growled when their heads dropped. Swooping on the carrier of Tia the Arcane snatched the Elder's body out of her hand dangling the corpse as if it were roadkill. "You will no longer pray to any other god. You will worship Molmet." Throwing the body into the blazing fire with a grin the bull head demon roared. "I require sacrifice."
Turning a menacing smile to the presenters Molmet could feel the rage, despair, and hate radiating from them. "Yes…" he moaned, inhaling their emotions. "You three will do." Speaking in his own tongue the smoke from the fire began to twist and shift responding to his speech.
Staring at the fire in horror the villagers clenched hold of each other in fear as the smoke took on demonic faces then departed the flame entering the body of their companions transforming them to subservient entities. Grinning at the completion of the Arcane possessions Molmet spread his arms out in glee. "Welcome to the third dimension." spoke the Arcane. "From here on, we will rule over these Ruachs."
"We await your orders." replied the Arcanes with a bow.
"Great now herd these animals and kill everyone whom display hostility or refuses to worship my glory."
"As you command." remarked the subordinates' hands over their heart.

"Beg your pardon, lady Nutri but there is a difficulty in which I am not well acquainted with." Peeking over his shoulder making sure no else heard his statement he pointed to the lower decks. "It seems that your guest are undergoing quite a traumatic experience. I believe it's due to his ill passenger."
"Thank you." Bowing, Nutri turned to face the door leading to the lower parts of the ship. "I shall nurture the lil ones." Strolling down below to the children's chambers the Inkan Evol paused at a loud bump against the walls followed by a crash.
Boomf, barging into the room Nutri jaws dropped at the now conscious teenager hemming the doctor up against the wall. "JunBee…JunBee?" she said in confusion. Bolting over to the doctor, the Evol caught the young man by his shoulder. "JunBee?"
Snapping at his transgressor, Junbee dropped his prey, placing focus on the new arrival. Dashing across the room with inhuman speed the five foot six freckle faced boy pounced on a more delectable morsel.
Evading the attack with ease, Nutri faltered for a moment at the arrival of JunBee's siblings allowing the raved teen to land a strike.
"JunBee!" Galloping over to her brother hugging him Kem looked up into his red eyes. "You're alive."
Peering down at the kinky haired girl a flood of memories washed through JunBee's mind. "JunBee" hearing another set of voices bombarded him once again, sending a surge of videos and pictures that brought him to his senses.
"Kem? Ori?"
