Hey, Ariaz speaking, here to give ya'll some info on the up coming chapters in this part of "Kirin's life."

About: Kirin, now 16, is feeling pain from within him, then he finds out that it is demon energy manifesting inside him, if he doesn't learn how to control it, Corneria will be under attack by something very invincible.

New Chars: Pierce Phoenix, Fara's son, gifted with controlling wind, a walking body of 500 piercing rings.

Conner O'Donnell, Wolf's son, gifted with controlling fire, loves to sleep.

Lazlo but you already met him.

Fiona Phoenix, Fara's daughter, tries to be like her older brother, somewhat telekinetic.

Pinza Coraso, Panther's son, gifted with controlling Ice, spear master, nothing like his father.

11 years later

The Venom Prisoners ran for their lives in pure fright, trying to get away from the shadowy figure chasing them down the night streets of Corneria. They took a left turn into an alley and were trapped in, the figure landed in front of the only exit way out, the prisoners turned to their chaser and shivered back in terror.

"What really pisses me off about you Venom walking bums, is that you try to destroy everything around us. You know, that kinda makes me...ballistic." The figure spoke and grinned as he reached out behind him and grabbed onto the holsters on his back.

The figure drew out his two hand guns, one made of pure silver with bat wings on each side and a sickle on the bottom of the grip and the other made of pure gold with rubies in its sides and a long sickle ontop, about to fire at the Prisoners with unmerciful rage and bloodlust. The prisoners quickly drew their hidden blasters and fired away, but it was a feeble attempt as the figure easily dodged each shot and fired the blasters out of their paws with three precise shots, it was a hopeless attempt to win.

"Do you even know who I am?" The figure spoke as he stepped forward towards the moonlight.

The figure lifted his hood and revealed his face within the moon's glow, it was Kirin, a 16 year old Kirin to be exact, more violent then kind like before, his blue hair now longer and reaching down to his tail base, his body more slim and stronger then before, he was like his father but in a much different way: Torture first, never ask a damn question later. Kirin held his two hand guns and fired, screams of the Venom prisoners echoed through the streets of Corneria like an alarm sirin blaring over a base.

"You were messing with a professional Mccloud, Jackasses."

Back at the Base

Kirin walked through a glass door and sighed, cracking his back and let out a belch, holding onto his Soul Edge with one strong paw, looking around for his parents that had informed him of the prisoners escape. The familier old hare, Peppy, started walking up to him, more elderly then ever, it was a miracle that he was even standing at this age, though Kirin would never make a insulting joking about his age unless he wanted several hours of lectures.

"So did you capture them or, the usual, kill them?" The old hare asked, his voice had actually seem to tighten in his throat, his lungs weren't what they use to be.

Kirin looked at the old Hare like he would tell him the entire event, but even without thinking once or twice, his face could tell the answer to Peppy directly, leaving the hare to let out a dissapointed sigh.

"You killed them, see that's why they get so annoyed with you Kirin, when they ask you to bring something back, an actual live prisoner for example, they don't mean a lifeless body or a limb." Peppy began with one of his unholy lectures; Kirin, quickly grabbing his ears to avoid listening, quickly thought of an excuse to make the hare change the subject.

"The officials never told me that, they fired at me first, so they got what was coming to them, by the way, where's Mom and Dad?" Kirin asked with high hopes of changing the subject to silence the on going lecture, and, with greatest luck, it did.

"They're working right now, a new mission has come up…" Peppy replied, completly forgetting the prisoner problem.

"So the house is mine for the day…alright." Kirin grinned and rubbed his paws together, already dasterdly ideas formed within his twisted mind.

"They left a message you know." Peppy chuckled, knowing exactly what Kirin was going to do.

The ideas had vanished with lost hope.

"Ha…wha?" Kirin let out a worried tone, knowing that nothing good came out of a left message, especially if it was for him, the old hare held out a disk from his outstretched paw, slowly tooken from by Kirin's shaking paw, knowing that he would later regret hearing it, his thumb pressed the play button.

"Kirin, sorry but we're going to be out late, just giving you this message to tell you to not trash the house, alright? Good, we might get home at 9:00, love you honey." His mother's voice came from small disk in a trasmission tone, his heart sank with sadness as he turned off the message disk, his mother always figured out what he was doing, of course with the help of her telepathy. Kirin rubbed his chin, his thoughts racing to find an answer to counter her message, and finally it hit him solidly in the face, a grin slowly emerged from his muzzle.

"She didn't say not to have a couple friends over." Kirin snickered as he collected his bounty money and walked out into the night streets of Corneria.

8:30 P.M. Pheonix residence

Pierce lied on his bed silently as his eyes watched the colors of his lava lamps play along the ceiling, his rings jingled all over his body, so many piercing rings were put through the desert fox's skin that it made him look more than a freak of nature, the sound of his cell phone ringed against his ear, his ears flicked as his paw rotated slowly, pulling the cell phone into his paw with a tiny gust of wind.

"Hello?" The bored fennec yawned into his phone, wondering who would call him at such a time and out of the blue.

"Hey Pierce, its me Kirin." The voice of his vulpine friend rang from the other side, no doubt, filled with joy, Pierce knew that this could only be that his parents have left him the place.

"Hey Kirin, what's up my cerulean brotha?" Pierce chuckled into the phone, sitting up from his bed and flexed his muscles before they could go to sleep due to inactivity.

"Just bringing some friends over to the place, wanna come?" Kirin asked as he explained the situation.

"Err…sure what the hell." Pierce yawned as he stood up and hanged up, pulling on his appropriate clothing: A silver tank top, long orange cargo pants, and his black sandles. Pierce placed his cell phone into one of his several pockets and got on his jacket around him and around his arms, making his way for the front door, his paw gripped the doorknob when his ears perked up to the voice of a female.

"Pierce, where are you going?" An old yet youthful fennec spoke up, her voice uttering confusion.

Pierce forgot one thing that would either ruin his plan or allow him to go: his mom, Fara pheonix.

"Um…I'm…going to…Kirin's house, okay?" Pierce slowly explained as he awaited for his mothers answer.

Fara looked closely at her teenage son, those eyes of her could bore a hole straight through your soul that could make the strongest man cry, then she nodded her head and smiled, letting Pierce be on his way to Kirin's house. Pierce walked outside and moved his paws in a circular motion, sl;owly drawing the wind towards him in wide arcs of powerful gusts, creating an orb of wind and perched himself upon it, then after a few minutes of forming the orb to the equal power of a tornado, he zoomed off on the orb to Kirin's house as he left a strong dust trail behind his tracks.

"Wonder why Kirin wants some friends over, the last time I came, he tried to kill me with a lawn mower." Pierce thought and sighed as he shrugged and darted down the night streets of Corneria to the Mccloud residence. Pierce hopped off the orb as it began to wear itself out of wind and entered Kirin's house, looking at Conner, who was doing his best to stay awake, Pinza, who was coldly silent yet well mannered to pay attention, and Lazlo, who just gave the thought that he was paying attention but his eyes fixed themselves onto the adult movie that played on the T.V., sitting down while Kirin was telling them about his vacation plans. "I'm here."

"Oh, hey Pierce, welcome." Kirin greeted the fennec as he slid to the left to make room for his "Brother".

Pierce sat down across from Kirin and removed his jacket, throwing it behind him and directly onto the coat hanger, then Kirin looked up at Pierce and smiled, an expression across his face that put Pierce in a disturbed position.

"Hey Pierce, can you do that…thing?" Kirin asked him questionly, everyone looking at him with the same awaiting expression.

"Huh?" Pierce muttered and raised a brow confusingly.

"The back thing…where you…you know." Kirin muttered as he tried his best to explain what he wanted him to do.

"Oh that thing, yeah I can do that." Pierce chuckled as he finally understood Kirin's request.

Pierce stood up and bent backwards with, oddly, no bones popping out of place, then he pushed his torso in between his legs, then he turned his torso around to face his watchers, he was looking at the guys while his back was twisted and his legs were pointing towards his pals. He was truly flexible, beyond believable to be so flexible, it left many people who would witness this act very jealous.

"I never get tired of this, it's amazing." Lazlo chuckled as he was finally paying attention to the fennec instead of the moans and slapping sounds from the television.

"Well because you have to withstand pain by a lot to twist your joints like that." Pierce explained as he sat himself down after untwisting himself.

"Can't hurt that bad." Conner yawned as his eyes became half closed, unable to keep awake.

"It does, but not as much as have five-hundred piercing rings through your skin, I'm a walking Jingle bell!" Pierce laughed and rubbed the back of his head, a wide grin across his muzzle.

Everyone started to laugh with him, Pinza just sat there, not laughing, just frowning, a sigh came from his breath.

"Five-hundred? That is pain? When I had the flu, I had over two-thousand needles stuck in my flesh that touched the bone." Pinza explained as he spoke of the past experience, this caught their attention away from Pierce, ignoring the fennec's growl.

"And there lays the reason why your name is Pinza." Pierce countered the panthers statement, gaining laughter from the others quickly.

"You suck!" Pinza barked at the fennec angrily, never feeling so insulted before.

"Quiet Pinza, men are trying to talk." Pierce smirked, knowing that he had won against the panther and took the attention of everyone to him.

Pinza stood up with a stomp and made his way for the door, ignoring everyone else and trying his best to restrain himself from releasing his fury upon them.

"Hey Pinza, where you going?" Kirin asked the panther, wondering where he was going off to.

"None of your fucking business, imbeciles." Pinza barked back at them and slammed the door shut.

Kirin looked at the door like he was questioned with a quiz that he didn't know anything about, he didn't know what Pinza's problem was and, to be exact, he didn't really much care either, already he had forgotten the situation.

"We'll onward then into the night." Kirin yelled as the others yelled in joy, the living room now stocked with pepsi and pizza boxes.

The four talked while Pinza went home, freezing water puddles at his footsteps, his icy aura slowly pulsing around him, his anger was more then he could take as he stomped and shattered a puddle into tiny ice shards, paving his path with broken shards of ice as he walked home.

Out in space

"Hello? Is anyone out there?" A human voice spoke out through the bars off his cell, which was, of course, not even closed, his name tag bored onto his prisoners shirt, "Ariaz". Ariaz looked through the window confusingly after figuring out that his cell was opened, he didn't realize that he was traveling in a prison ship from Venom in space, full of boredum. "Not much to do here…wha' zis?

Ariaz looked at the red button before him, shining brightly with its red light, pupils shrinking and eyes widening, temptation made him want to press the button so badly, but his mind told him not to come near it, but when did his mind ever help him? With a shrug, he pressed the button quickly, and before he knew it, he was traveling at a high speed and his body crashing directly into the wall.

Ariaz clawed his way back to the console and pressed the button again quickly, flying, again, directly into the wall infront of him as the ship came to an exact stop and returned to its normal speed down, he figured out that his brain helped out this time, saying DO NOT PRESS THAT GODDAMN BUTTON AGAIN!

Ariaz looked outside the window with a dull face, taking him up to the amount of 30 minutes to finally figure out his situation and location, then he was scared, practically terrified.

"Oh! My! God! I'm in space!" Ariaz squeaked loudly and shook rapidly, his legs like noodles and his bravery soft like jello with the flavor of terror.

Ariaz finally figured it out that the outside was the universe, infinate and unable to be charted in one lifetime, what he didn't know is that he was in the Lylat system, not the solar system. The ship stopped, Ariaz didn't know why, all he knew is that it wasn't moving, and that was enough to make him panic, but his lungs wouldn't move, he didn't want to scream and cause trouble, especially to himself, then the door near the controls opened up, Fox entered through the door, examining the room carefully and looked at Ariaz, a slight gasp from his breath followed by one of Ariaz's loud gasps.

"I must be going insane, seeing an animal in clothes…yeah I'm insane." The human shivered and twitched.

Fox held up his wrist and activated his Comm link to the Cornerian military facility, a hologram of General Pepper appeared.

"Uh…General, we found something unexpected, a living human." Fox reported, his eyes shifting from time to time towards Ariaz and his curled up position.

"That's impossible, they were wiped out a long time ago." The general explained, sounding confused and, only a little, found it hard to believe.

"Well take a look for yourself." Fox countered as he cocked his head towards Ariaz.

The Hologram turned to the Human, General Pepper gasped slightly at the sight of the living being.

"Well I'll be damned, Fox, bring him down to the base, we might find some information about what the humans used to know." Pepper ordered after catching his breath.

"Can do, Fox out." The vulpine replied and deactivated his comm link.

Fox looked at Ariaz and sighed, the human was still banging his head against the wall of the ship through fear and instant terror.

"Alright, I'm just going to attach my Arwing to the ship and I'll fly us down to Corneria, ok? You going to live." Fox asked as he patted Ariaz's shoulder, hopefully trying to calm him down.

"Whatever, you hallucination of my disturbed mind." Ariaz shivered and squeaked, rolling around now.

Fox was confused by being called a hallucination, he didn't think Ariaz was intelligent, just plain stupid and dull like a thick rock.

"Lets get a move on shall we?" Fox asked as he left the prison hatch and onto his arwing, preparing the attachment.

"Go right ahead." Ariaz spoke out, slowly a grin came across his face, a silent chuckle came from his breath. "Thats right, foolish vulpine, bring me to my destination, so that I may show this system how a true god is born!"
