::Just before August is impaled by the enraged Burmecian child, Lillith throws up an air shield. Oliver bounces back into Lillith who wraps her arms tightly around him, though he tries to scratch at her and growls with primal fury, she simply winces when he swipes her and uses her free hand to stroke the fur on the top of his head::
It's over Oliver. You won. He can't hurt you or anyone else anymore. You don't have to be frightened anymore.
::She looks towards August and glares as if daring him to try anything::
A few years back, I spared your life. Don't make me fix that mistake today.

Oliver struggles and kicks for several seconds, his growls turning to crying, suddenly and without warning. He grabs onto Lillith and burries his eyes into he clothes as he bawls.
"I'ate myself-" His muffled voice exclaims in the throws of tears. "It hurs', it really hurs."

::Oliver feels himself being rocked back and forth now that he's holding still as Lillith whispers into his ear::
Shhh Its okay. Its all over now. You didn't do anything wrong. You've done beautifully.
::She signals for Kenny to get August. She wants the murderer as far away from Oliver as possible::

::August gives Lillith a cold gaze from behind the blood and fragmented glasses.::
This hasn't ended yet, you've just nabbed the bishop and knight, the King and Queen are still on the board.
::He turns away then, spitting out the blood from his mouth onto the floor. He's still doubled over on the floor in pain, unable to move.::

The atmosphere quickly changes outside, the fighting silences and there comes instead a loud commotion. A glace out the door shows uniformed police surrounding the area, arresting Hooks, checking bodies for vital-signs and securing the area.
A few moments later a portly fellow in a sharp and clean uniform, accompanied by several other officers enter the warehouse. "Lillith, my dear!" Excitedly exclaims the Constable as he approuches her. "Thats where you have been, nice work wrapping this up. Lindblum owes you a quite a debt... though it would of been nice if you informed us of your intentions." The Constables motions for the officers to cuff August and they decend upon him like locusts, subdueing him. "We're dealing with Rena as well, certainly a mess here." He chuckles. "Glad all of you are alive, hows Oliver?" Looking down to the crying child. "He going to be ok?"
The officers hoist August up, their hands tightly wrapped around his cuffed arms. They drag him up to the Constable.
"Well, August Krasnow, you are hereby under arrest by order of the Crown of Lindblum." He turns to Lillith. "Anything you wish to add before we throw him in the wagon?"

Thank you very much. I'm sorry about not clueing you in, but you've already seen what happened to Ames. I'm guessing he's been monitoring the police somehow, and we knew he'd flee if you started moving. I'd check your office for bugs constable. As for him
::She throws a dark stare back at August who's eyes are still locked on hers like she's the one in the cage, not him::
Just get him the hell out of my sight.
::She gets back to her feet, lifting Oliver with her. He's small enough for her to carry on her hip::

::Back outside as the others watch Echidna being led away by the police, her eyes suddenly snap back open and she looks around wildly from her captors until they land on the heroes. Then she just smiles and laughs her shrill cackle, tossing her hair back and forth in throws of madness. Then like the corpses she had enchanted after August killed them, she starts to sing::
Attend the tale its near its end, But just around where the trail does bend, A hidden player of hatred born, a heart full of ice and a mind full of scorn, has come to plague the world once more.
In the pale moonlight see her, see her gaze does gleam, with a hunger in her eyes to seize the dream.
::She doesn't stop laughing the entire time she's being led away. jerking this way and that, trying to get a good look at the heroes again::

"You heard the lady, get him outa here!" The Constable yells, his officers obeying, dragging the beaten man out to the street towards the wagon where, already, Rena has been set, her mad cackling shrill pircing the air.
Back with Lillith the Constable pats Oliver on the head and further congradualates them both on the job. "Lillith, would it be alright if you can come down to the station sometime later. I would like it if you were with us during our interrogation of August. You know more about this case then any of my men at the moment and your insight would be invaluable. Is that alright with you?" The pericing cry of Rena's laugh fills the air. "I would like to talk to her as well, but my brain just isn't in any condition to deal with that. Probably have to write her off as a lost cause unless one of your team can translate for us." He sighs. "Crazy woman."

::Lillith sighs::
Whatever we have to do to get this over with. But I'm afraid Ech...
::She has to stop again and correct herself::
Rena is under custody of someone else in our group. Would it be possible to get the paperwork for a transfer?

::Eva sighed a bit as she watched Echidna get carried off before going over to Rainii before giving Dante a worried look due to how fatigued he look::
"Leviathon was it? Your a lot bigger than what I've heard about you...thank you for helping us though I'm a bit worried on how Dante's looking right now..."
Just like what happened with Ifrit.....
::She turned her attention back to Rainii and gave a slight laugh::
"Rainii why is it that we never come out unscathed...."
::Rainii's wounds started healing as Eva did one more spell for regen to get any other wounds she may have missed before going over to Iole::
"Everyone's who injured line up....I'll get to you in a moment."

Levithan responds to the compliment. Well, you are kindly welcome... But right after Eva mentions Dante and leaves to heal the others, he gives a puzzling look. Yes... he will...
He turns to him and before Levithan could respond: Summon ceased!
His solid watery self dispersed into flowing water, splashing down the ground. Dante chokes as if he just drowned. Then...
"Damn... Echinda--" Then he takes a look around the area to see all is calm. He grasp on his chest... "What... is going.. on.. with me.."
He pummel to the ground, face-first, as pyreflies start to surround him but not leaving this time...

::Eva notices Dante on the ground after she healed the others who was injured and ran off to be by his side causing her to curse again slightly::
"Not again...don't you dare go up in pyreflies form again..."
::She continued to try and heal whatever was injured though she's not entirely sure what is exactly causing him to act like this::
Come on...think think....the memory trigger?
::She turned her focus on the trigger with a frown at how cracked it was before she places both hands over it::
Its worth a shot....
::She closed her eyes and started to concentrate trying to repair the trigger::

The crack was temporarily sealed by the Eva's ice magic... but as it was being sealed, the ice tempered the glass orb to cause another minor crack on the side.
In an instant, he jolts back up... bu seeing Eva he starts getting flash images of a shadowy figure... then something... unrelated: occasional machine gun fire.. rocket firing.. then he sees someone giving a hand, an otherworldly but familiar weapon at hand: "Looks like you overdid it as usual, eh buddy? Need a smoke?"
Then everything goes back to normal. He slowly gets up slowly, clenching his chest. "Who... was that man.." He whispered lightly... though not realizing Eva being a tad close. He turns to her. "Thank you, Eva... your magic makes everyone feel better." He smiles a bit and moves a streak of hair over her ear then look around the aftermath of the area, still baffled of what happened. He once again tries to recall anything.. but the same chest pain.. the same static sound in his mind.
"Ugh... take to explain what is happened while we get back to the others. I... I cannot seem to recall anything... other than water in my lungs..." He readies to leave with Eva and the others.

::Eva just smiled at him and helped him stand as everyone was leaving for Takano's place::
"Why is it things are never simple with you Dante..."
::She said jokingly before she started looking back at the aftermath::
I can't get rid of this feeling...I don't know what it is but its not a good feeling....
::She shook off the thought before Dante could see her troubled expression as everyone left the area::
