Walking around in her usual robe and mask the Jashinist glances round to find everyone busy, Jared strides over with a hand wave making her turn to look at him.
"hey, haven't seen you in ages. Your just as beautiful as ever too" he smirks making Lily inwardly roll her eyes and glance at Hidan who seemed to be his usual looking self without the swearing.
"I've been busy" she states calmly glancing about the streamers and other strange things that would be for a party, a cake was at the side making her slightly amused to what was going on.
"so have we, the celebration of 4 years of Jashinism is upon us. All of the higher-ups will come down and everybody who is part of the religion will be united for a large sacrificial game" Lily nods her head slowly. "it will be interesting to see what you look like in your true form" he laughs. "you'll even be given your very first weapon that Jashin has chosen" Lily gives a confused stare before being tapped by someone, turning she glances at a rather old looking man,
"ah there you are, I hoped you would be in Lady Celena" the man bows with a briefcase in hand, the man points towards a large door while ushering the woman forwards.
"I have brought you Jashin-sama's order, I hope it's to your liking" the brief case pops open and hit's the table softly, inside is a silken red cloth that holds tightly to a black fabric in which hides and protects something from unneeded eyes. Lily's pale hand reaches in and pulls it out with an emotionless masked stare, a quick flick to the side sends the cloth sliding down the item. Clutching the leather handle to what could only resemble a sword slowly becomes visible, another swing and slice is followed only to be accompanied by a swift twist and dice. Lily's lips curl into a smile that unhinges when person who brought the sword in the first place hands it to her.
"I also brought you cuff's, you'll like these" he smirks pulling at the red fabric and holding up rather heavy looking armoured arm warmers, the man takes them and starts to slip them on either side. Arms held upwards into the shape of an 'x' and the sound of fine steel chimes to two long metallic blades pierce the air and shine the piercing eyes of the owner back.
"are they to your liking my Lady?" the man asks closing his suitcase and bowing towards the woman whom only nods and keeps total concentration on her new 'toys'.
"if you excuse me, I'll let you be" he steps backwards avoiding the shut door and leaves as fast as possible, a sheet of paper is handed to her that she glances over quietly with interest.
[so I just chant this and I'll get my main weapon? I wonder what ill get if Hidan has that scythe…] the thought of the albino makes her sad for a moment, Jared comes trotting over to glance at the new cuffs and swords at her hips.
"need some help summoning your form? And main weapon?" he enquires leaning over her as Lily shifts from his touch and shakes her head.
"no thanks, I'm sure I can handle this on my own" seeming miffed he nods before going to help the ladies by the bookcase instead, sighing the masked Jashinist runs from the room before anyone else can annoy her, sitting alone in one of the main halls Lily stares at the parchment that was filled with the strangest symbols.
"suppose I should give it a try" she murmur's pulling out the knife from her bands and turning her attention to her wrist. "…here goes nothing" her perpetual lilac eyes close as she shifts the trembling blade against her skin, gulping she presses but pulls away quickly in fear of the movement. "…" staring at the blade her eyebrow furrows, placing it back she tries again but the trembling of fear starts over until she drops to her knee's putting the blade away. "pathetic…" she murmur's softly before staring at the symbol. "I wonder what would happen if I…" getting up she places down the parchment Lily starts praying while reaching out her hands into fist's while tensioning the muscles in her fingers as this action opens portals in the ground slowly spitting out 2 medium poles from inside the vortex.
Grabbing both of them and interlinks them together into one she watches the process in awe, one half was tattered with wing like blades and leather straps flaying from it and the larger blade like fin glinting a deathly red glow, the leather straps wrap around her arms like tentacles where as the other half is glowing a gentle blue. The large blade is ridged and griped like teeth with antler like root sticking from the start of the blade fixing it to pole, the glowing strings intertwine into the ragged leather boosting extra chakra into the woman's body, the pale Suna nin's chakra level rise's and keeps rising without faultier until the ground round her feet start to shift, sink and crack under the pressure. The light fluffy feeling starting to fade until she stands quite happily looking at the weapons, the fact that she needed blood was perplexing because from what she could see nothing bad happened but as she swings the blade she screeches out in distress to her spine cracking.
Dropping with one of the blades dug in the ground she pants and tightly grips it, breathing deeply with one eye closed and one half lidded in pain.
"what…" she gasps out feeling the pain ripple again, the Jashinistic symbol bubbling at her feet as Lily watches the thread of her scythe tearing away at one half of her flesh, it feels and crawl's like black spiders to her horror upwards, right now she should be dead. The raven haired girl's heart had stopped for the transformation but in order to accommodate it, first it had to stop. In other words she was having a heart attack, all the internal organs would need to be shifted so while she is having a heart attack she is having liver and kidney failure too.
Lily stops screaming but its not because the pain has dulled in her throat, it's because her gullet and vocal cords are tearing and reforming meaning she literary can't make a sound. By now the cartulary gland should be working over time flooding her body with endorphins to relive some of the pain but that to has shut down, anybody else would of died of shock long ago but it wont let her. This transformation without blood would still work but it drives her through the fire and keeps her alive and even conscious to endure everything second of it, Lily's pupils suddenly burst out to flood her eyes completely in black while the Jashinistic symbol spirals out to replace it. The spiders crawling to form a single black feathered wing while her other half forms the reminisce of a boned wing, her decayed wing sitting on the half of her body that was now nothing but bones where the robe would show her skin. An eye opening up on it's elbow with the Jashinistic symbol watching out, the symbolic necklace around her neck heating up as the black draws blood away from that side to store it inside while the flesh helps form her wings, falling to her knee's she blacks out finally from the pain.
Groaning Lily twitches her boned hand against the ground as she opens her eyes slowly to look at the bones, screaming she gets up in a flash to stare at it with wide-eyed horror. Eyes tearing up the bones then at her ribcage as she pulls at her robe to find skin and flesh still upon her leg. "what…" checking the rest of her body she finds that only her upper half torso was bone, something shifts as her head twists to look at the eye on her wing copying her own eyes expressions as she screams at it. Slowly her hands reach behind to touch the wings with unsure worry, her weapon strewn on the ground close by calling for her attention as it glows, unsteadily Lily turns back to the eye that swivels with her to stare in an eye-lock.
The Jashinistic symbol in its eye acting like a pupil that dims in light as if it where dilating, blinking she finds that it blinks with her. Reaching up it closes quickly before her head trails back down to the bone, opening and shutting her pale flesh covered hands reach up to run against it. It felt like real bone as her fingers trial and stick in-between the hole on the other side, opening and shutting it to her astonishment it moves just like anyone else's ordinary limb. Pulling at her ribcage she raises her eyebrow.
"…is this supposed to happen" her voice sounded different as she grabs her mask in surprise.
"why do I sound more…angelic?" her hands reach up to touch the skin clinging onto her collarbone too keep her throat covered, gulping Lily reaches under her mask to touch warm flesh on both sides. Pulling off the mask her wing seems to let her see what's on her face, gasping she stares at her symbolic eyes and the skeleton print that Hidan had from his ritual's and yet it was the pale white of her skin with black printing out her bones instead.
"I feel so light" her voice tingles in her throat while getting up shakily to her feet, the new weight on her back was something different. Taking sure steps forwards Lily reaches for the weapon before topping over with a thud.
"…this is going to be complicated" standing back up after picking up the scythe there is something behind her that makes a strange sound of panic, turning her head to look at the priest staring with wide eyes. Literarily screaming he turns on his heel and runs for the hills in terror towards the party, blinking slowly she glances at her wing eye that seems to be making the same apparent expression as her own.
"I have a bad feeling about this, don't you?" hearing shouting the girl gasps widening her eyes when they come storming in with their weapons raised.
"it's true! A spawn of the devil really is in our sanctum" someone preaches making her take a step back, weapon raised in defence.
"I'm not a demon!" Lily plights as they creep forwards anyway.
"Back to hell with you demon!" taking another step back Lily looks to Hidan with panic, begging for help in-which he looks away from in disgrace. Lily's eye wing swivels to stare right at her as she looks back up at it, it flashes at her as if thinking like her, hearing someone come right at her the raven haired nin jumps backwards with a skid before attempting to flap her wings in distress. Half only one wing made the movement awkward but she only wanted to lift far enough to grab something to keep them away from her.
"I'm not a demon, why would a demon carry Jashin-sama's symbol if I was!?" she cries out running as fast as she can away from them, unknown to her that there were more eyes on the back watching behind her.
Running into the library she slams it shut and looks round for any kind of escape route, running quickly while her hair flicks from side to side Lily jumps onto a table and uses her brace blades to claw her way up the bookends to the top to perch and stare down at the door being slammed at powerfully.
"why wont my portal open…" she curses trying to manipulate it again only go have it backfire on her, the doors break open as the attackers pile in to look for her. Crawling further back Lily gulps timidly wishing she had her puppets to keep her safe, she knew nothing about how to actually use the twin-bladed swords or the swords at her waists. Pushing her wings in to a close the pale Jashinist peeks one wing up to look over the edge, a blade flying past missing only by an inch as she pulls it back with a flinch.
"come down here and meet your maker 'Celena'…if that's even your real name!" someone yells out in anger whom was most likely Chad, even they had turned on her just showing her how bad this was becoming.
"her names Lily…" the albino suddenly speaks up from the crowd but disguises it as they glare.
[traitor!] she glares keeping away from the end of the bookcase as the rabble comes closer to the centre of the room, there is sudden silence when a voice speaks.
"what is going on?" they enquire the voice sounded so recognisable as she leans out to stare down on Skew, her eyes widening as he turns to look up at her, his own eyes widening as well.
"Môn cher?" "cara mia?" both of them speak at the same time as she then glances to see that they had paused in time, out of confusion she stays hidden until he shifts his hand for her to come down. His eyes widening further when he see's her leap off with the pair of demonic angel wings, and slip along the wood polish floor across the ground behind him, skidding to a halt in front of Skew before bounding up and straighten her posture to stare in right in the eyes. Eyebrows had raised to the heavens at the stunt, his head shifting to look at the impossible height she fated then back at her.
"what are you doing here…" he questions with a confused expression before looking at her body and then at the sash and weapon, it dawns on him as he looks her up and down once more. "you're the matriarch Lord Jashin spoke of? Of course…why didn't I see the resemblance in that puppet" he hits his forehead while the raven haired woman stares at him in complete confusion still. "ah…I'll explain this all to you later Môn petite chou-chou" nodding slowly his hand is raised to unfreeze the men, they give perplexed looks before jumping to find her right in front of them next to Skew.
"alright, why are you chasing a matriarch? You do know it's against your religion" his eyes aimed straight at the priest who is supposed to be controlling them, his eyes shifting to the albino then back to them all.
"she's a demon…" one calls out in a scowl as he shakes his head.
"so she looks different in her ritual form, this doesn't mean she is a demon. Leave it at that and go enjoy the party before any of the elders find you causing mayhem" he calmly points as some shift and move without hesitation while others need a bit of persuasion to shift away from the spot.
Skew turns to glance at the bone before taking her hand to examine it, his movements shifting to pull and touch the wings.
"this is very strange cara mia. You shouldn't have any of this…even your Jashinistic print is wrong" he hadn't noticed all the eyes watching him until now as he widens his own to stare at the symbols, he takes her chin to see her clearly.
"what did you do…the only thing you have right is your weapons" he mumbles this glancing it over seeming rather impressed.
"your chakra level is also very impressive…I'm just glad you can control it without doing anything bad…well…kind of" his eyes shift to look at the ground where she steps that had been scolded with a semi-permanent Jashin symbol.
"I followed the rituals to summon my weapon…then this happened" Lily stares gloomily at her bony hands that Skew was still fiddling with in astonishment. "it might have something to do with me not using blood?" he stops to look up at her with an unsure expression.
"without blood? How on earth did you manage to do that…without blood the ritual shouldn't have activated but…ah you used one of the ritual halls didn't you?" she nods hesitantly. "well…I believe you've used the blood of about 100-200 rituals, perhaps?, all at once…this is something that Jashin-sama will want to hear about" Lily gives a worried expression to this but Skew just rubs her fleshed shoulder gently. "don't worry, he wont be mad. Actually I think he'll be just as impressed as I and the elders when they hear about this…since it hasn't been done before" he smirks while she just glances away quietly, he just raises his eyebrow in thought. "lets go to the party then" the girl doesn't shift as she glances down to the floor quietly.
"if it's okay…I think I'm going to the real world…they'll be hungry right now" she doesn't make eye contact but he just rubs her neck with a grin.
"I'll save you some cake Lily-sama…you'll need something sweet while I'm explaining why I'm here anyway" smiling at her she smiles back pleasantly before nodding happily, to her luck the portal opens making her thankful. As usual she wasn't wrong in them complaining about food that they were to lazy to get, food on the table she puts Hidan's by the door but stands staring at it quietly.
She couldn't help but feel slightly alone not having the albino yelling down her neck all the time, frustrating to watch him yell at other people and it just made her feel alone when he didn't even give her a passing scowl anymore with his bright red eyes and usually unclean and bloody hair. Groaning inwardly she turns quickly to leave the door before anyone noticed her just standing there looking like a lost dog but she probably was in his eyes. [stupid lamb] she cursed quietly walking down the dark hallway towards her own room. Stepping out from the empty recesses of the corridor she stands staring at the bed in its pristine as usual manner.
