- Rifts Earth Administration Building-
.
Lluvia was standing in front a few admin members. The talk with her father got her nothing. He had no idea hos Azul did what he was able to. But he looked happy for it. The Trickster explained he would look into it subtly the next time he and the others joined back with the Creator.
Right now she was checking on a request to look into the Jua-Mu incident.
"I am sorry Operator Lluvia, but no record shows you put in the request." The clerk said.
"Here is the request order, printed and signed by the brass. As well as the digital log of the conversation. You want try that lie again?"
"I see the evidence but it was never done completely. Surely you understand this?" The clerk was about to say more but Lluvia ripped him from his seat. "Ahhh please, I didn't do it!"
"Put him down!" A few guards yelled. They approached for a few steps before their legs gave out.
"Bwoom!" Lluvia flared up with Devil power crushing them in an instant. She didnt kill them but they were in agonizing pain.
"Traitorous insects." Lluvia sneered as she tossed the guard around the room with a Biotic Lift. The clerk was tossed around as well. Sitting down, she accessed the screen. "Nothing but a bunch of dumbasses following idiots."
As she keyed away an Administrator moved about in the shadows. He gazed at Lluvia checking her level. Is misread telling him she was level 60. That was from what her level was. Feeling he could take her, he jumped down.
"Hup!" The Administrator caped fluttered a little. "Assaulting Administration personnel is a grave offense."
"So is killing an Administrator." Lluvia found what she was looking for. "Those bastards are all gonna fry!" She was good at tech. Especially with all the technology, Azul messed with. As the Administrator moved to grab her, a blast of biotic injury exploded his organs.
"Ahhhhh!" The administrator screamed bloody murder. His health plummeted as he tried to recover Lluvia was already attacking again. "Waiit.."
"Schlick!" Her hand stabbed his chest as she pulled him up by the throat. Eyes rolled over as she used the Melding on the admin. The problem was that it would burn out his mind completely as well as his soul.
"Ah, I am really glad for where my User started. Some abilities are just better than others." Dropping the body as it disintegrated from a rune spell. "Death to traitorous as they say." The entire room lit up in magical might. Something she was not known for.
"Fwoosh!" The explosion blew the facility floor apart burning all inside. The quick meld informed her known were innocent. All members that were part of the Users and Administrators performing a coup.
Lluvia left back to a few places before she would head back. Several Rift Police were already at the scene trying to put the fire out.

-Medical-
.
Galtea and Galtana watched from a window as one of the floors blew up at the Administration building. Galtana eased away shaking her head frustrated.
"How foolish, the person must want trouble." Galtea said. She shook her head as a doctor was looking at her results. "What do you think mother?"
"I am more worried about these results." Galtana said. She knew who did it. She was the one who helped her get in. The results of the quest showing it was not over yet. "Why do you have so many mental blocks in place still?!"
"This will not go well at this rate. You may have recovered physically but this is not good for your health my dear." The doctor was covered head to toe in lenses. Each scanning at the results reading different things. Off to the side, he consulted with the System for the effect to her psyche. "Dreadful indeed. Defintely stopping your growth."
"I know. But it is what I want for now." Galtea answered sheepishly.
A few weeks later and Azul was back in his Nether World. He spent time in Mortal Kombat causing some problems as well as solving problems but other than that, things were good. But coming into his Nether World, he felt off. It was trying to tell him something. trying to warn him to leave before he gets hurt.
"What is going everyone?" Azul asked those gathered. "Everything ok?"
"Yes and no." Galtea said rubbing her elbow. "I have picked up your mannerisms my User. I want you to do something for me. I know you won't like it. You are gonna hate it actually. Hate me actually."
"Eh... then dont ask me then." Azul said. He had a smile on his face and was just joking. "Come on, just out with it. Do you want me to go to a World I hate or something?" She shook her head no. "Is it another Administration mission or something?" She shook her head no again. "Do you want me to go help another User in a dangerous place?"
"Yes and no." Galtea started to cry. She gripped the front of his clothes. The biotic strands to hectic for him to check. "Please dont hate me. I want you to help him. I have to ask. I just have to!"
"Help who?" Azul felt the biotic strands starting to enter him from the others. He frowned getting a general idea of who it was she wanted him to help. "You can not be serious.... This is a really bad joke." He broke free ripping his clothes.
"She is." Mileuda said arriving. The others popping in right after. "I am sorry but.. can you do it?"
"She loves him as much as you love us. As much as you love her." Tietra said. She couldnt look Azul in the eye. "I know we are asking for a lot but..."
"I have no real opinion on this matter. It is better I dont say anything." Jaina said standing to the side. 'Galtana must have known this was coming. Haa, this will not end well at all.'
"I am of the same agreement." Riku said at first. "But I think you could talk to him."
"They are crazy!" Aurora yelled. "I dont know why they are like this, but hell no." She looked at them and stared with hatred. "Did you forget he was responsible for so many deaths? What he did to the Nether World. What he did to each of us? I have not!" Her sisters stood behind keeping her calm somewhat.
"I think it will help matters. Bring a resolution to everything." Zelda added.
"Screw resolution." Lluvia said appearing. "I am not ok with this. To think that man ruined you so badly that you could forgive him. Love is not only blind, but stupid." She was tired from making sure not to lead back to Azul with what she did. If she was in her full state, she might have killed some of them.
"I.. know. Logically I shouldn't want to help him. But I cant help it." Galtea said looking from her. She looked back at Azul who just stared. "Please say something!"
System: Consitution Check 0 Fail. Willpower Check 0 Fail
"Kuff!" Azul spat out blood and lost control of his power. "Raaaaaaahhh!" Lines of power ripped through his body.
"Bwoom!" He was then Rifted away by a black Rift.
"Where did he go?" Mileuda asked first.
"Where Galtea!?" Tietra seconded upset. She felt the effect on her bond with Azul first. 'It hurts. Why does it hurt so badly?!'
"We dont know." Lluvia added. "He has been isolated from us all. It's not even by the Administration or by the Avatars. Directly by.. the System auto features. The Creator did it."
"He has been sent somewhere else entirely beyond me." The Trickster said appearing. "Be at ease daughter. He will come back. I hope." He grabbed his daughter to keep her from lashing out.
"You did this! You ruined everything!" Lluvia yelled at Galtea. "We had everything we wanted. Power, happiness, points. Even a few Users on our side. Why ruin it?!"
Galtea looked appalled. She didn't think this would happen. A little yelling but not him going away like this.
"Galtea.. do no regret this." Galtana appeared speaking to her daughter. "This will not end well."
"Who went with him?" Tifa asked. Her eyes scanned the area and a screen. "Almost everyone is here right now."
"Just Skarlet and Bass." Zelda said. "I couldnt catch on fast enough. I think Hilda is with him. Oh and Onyx as well."
"The problem is not that." Ciela said as Techlis held her hand. "Its gone."
"The statue with all his rage and fears. The old part of his psyche." Jaina answered feeling things might be just a little bad. "I do not envy the World he has gone to."
"Or the inhabitants. They are gonna most likely all die." Tifa said frowning. An obvious distaste in her mouth. "I am gonna go Inform Quistis. She won't be happy about this."
"Happy about what?" Quistis asked arriving. The Rift behind her a milky white. She had a troubled look on her face as she looked around. "Where is Azul? I felt him call to me. Which was really weird."
"He Is gone." Lluvia said gripping her father's shoulders. A look of rage building up in her again.
"Well, when he gets back let me know. I have something to tell him."
"We dont know when he will be back." Galtea said meekly. "He is outside Administration control."
"Is he in danger?" Quistis asked gripping her stomach absentmindedly. "No, he will be fine." Quistis then rifted away. She rather not hear anymore.
"Azul is missing." Tanith said arriving. "He vanished right before our eyes. Silveria stayed behind to look for him."
"Wait he is gone across the different places." Aurora left and came back a few seconds later. "The other him is missing according to the ship's computer."
"I dont know how that could have happened." Galtana said. "Only Administrators and Avatars can do that."
"He is an Avatar candidate." The Trickster said plainly. "But even this is beyond what he should be capable of. Unless the System pulled him to go somewhere he would need all his strength."
"It is done." Galtana said. "I have made copies in the places he was currently. Only a few seconds interval of time was adjusted."
"If he dies.." Lluvia said lowly. "I dont know what will happen."
"We kill Galtea is what will happen." Dyshana said nonplussed. A dark gaze in her eyes. "Even I feel pain from him not being here. I do not like it. Not one bit."
"You will not harm my daughter." Galtana said. "She did what she had to. Same as the rest of you have done at one point in your life.'
"I have not made someone so mad that they coughed blood and then were rifted away before something happened to them." Aurora said. "You may be more powerful than me, but it doesn't mean I still won't try to kill your daughter and you." Her biotics flared up.
"She won't be the only one." Tanith said.
"Everyone calm down." Tifa said. "I know you are angry. I have my guard up and I can still feel it. the pain is stifling from his Nether World. It knows he is not hear. We just need to try and go on with our lives till he gets back. He will be back. We all know he will." She gave a look around to everyone then opened a Rift. "I am gonna get to work. It is the best thing to do to stay busy."
She left signaling Lu Bu and Diaochan to follow with. Quite a bit of people left to various places and to do various work.
"The User Thrasher.." Ciela said to Zelda. Alita was to furious to talk with at the current time. ".. he is doing farely well. Mosty bashing the Undead and Skaven. If any one is needed a place to went, that is the perfect place."
