It was quiet for all but the sound of stone on metal as Malik sharpened her battle ax. Venatrix sat in the corner her lips were a thin white line on her face as she seemed lost in thought; yet every mussel on her body seamed taunt like she was about to leap out and kill anyone in reach. Everyone was on edge as the plane headed for their destination in America. Yami was hanging limp in his seat he and the other yamis were being sustained by Venatrix; Yami would be incapacitated until they had arrived. She had not said much scenes Yugi had been kidnaped and what she did say was a message to the UN basically watered down to 'We are going to get Yugi back if you get in our way you will be declaring war with the Cybertronians and the Shadow Realm; so F*&^ Off and stay out of our way.'
She ran her fingers through Yamis hair in a motherly fashion trying to sooth her nerves a little. It helped a little but not much knowing what she would have to do soon. Malik seeing her 'Mother' in such distress stopped sharpening her Ax and walked over to Venatrix resting her hand on her knee. "It's going to be fine Mom Bakura, Yami, and me; are more than enough to take out those ninnies that dare to hurt a Hikari."
Bakura got up and walked over too "She is right Mom we will get the Shrimp back and make them pay you'll see." He said well patting her back in a comforting matter.
Venatrix gave a small smile "thanks you two but that is not what has me so worried. Hikaris have an aura defense to protect them if he is hurt as badly as I think he is then the leader of the group will need to have his soul destroyed because it is too tainted. It is the one power I have never wanted to try or use at any time."
Malik flinched at the thought "that bad hu?"
Venatrix just grunted and affirmative not wanting to talk anymore of what was to come in the near future. The rest or the trip was silent except for the sounds of the wind and the engines of the plane leading Venatrix to a light dose. She jolted awake when she felt the plain lose altitude starching her stiff wings as far as the cabin would allow causing Bakura to spit out a few feathers that had gotten in his mouth. "Sorry Kura" she said in a soft tone Bakura just grunted not really caring one way or another. They exited the plane to the sun setting in the Nevada desert Yami was carried on Venatrix back as they headed to the base which held Yugi. Venatrix silently thanked Primus for the foresight to put tracers on everyone from Yugioh as her feet touched the desert sand, it made finding him so much easier.
Bakura placed a comforting hand on Venatrix shoulder not saying a word, for none were need. There were three motorcycles for them to take waiting for them at the base one had a side car in which Venatrix placed Yami in as they headed out to Yugi. The wind was stilled that day so no sand flew in their eyes as they road along the golden plans they stopped at least quart of a mile away from where Yugi was supposed to be. They got off the bikes as Venatrix woke Yami form his slumber. Yami Jumped up and started to go tortes where Yugi was but was stopped by Venatrix. "Yami I need you to focus we are all going after Yugi but we can't get him if you go all shadows on them right now you need to keep a cool head for Yugi, can you do that for him?" Yami's eyes took on a cat like shape as he nodded a yes looking ready to fight at a moment's notice. "Good I will give them a minute to surrender if they don't then their lives are forfeit to you whim. Alright let's get to it and get our kith back from these devils" Venatrix said with a grim face. Venatrix cleared her throat and used as the bots called it her wrath of god voice that carried throughout the base where Yugi was held. "This is Venatrix Allspark of Cybertron you are in violation to the dimensional peace treaty if you do not surrender in five minutes your life is forfeit."
"So what now?" asked Yami in a tight voice.
"Now we wait and then we strike." The small group was silent as they herd the coyotes cry and watched some of the men of the base run off into the cold desert night. They just let them go they made their choice not to fight they were not going to kill them for that. One minute passed the two then three then four still nothing else finally the fifth one passed they still had Yugi. "Well kids they made their choice time to have at them."
Malik shadowed into the throng of guards that had stayed she let out a crazy laugh as her Ax bite into their flesh and spattered her with their blood, her red eyes glowing like a demon. Bakura cackled with sickening delight as his sword seamed to sing as it tasted the blood of the enemies. Yami went after them like a wounded animal shadowing from one guard to another with a primal battle cry and he sliced them in two with his saber.
This happened all before the guards realized what was going on once they got over the shock of seeing their co-workers die before their eyes; as the shadow with glowing red eyes seemed to come out of nowhere and kill them. Them the air seemed to split with an un-earthy screech as Venatrix attacked with twin swords the moon gleaming off her wings and silver hair eyes glowing blood red giving her a look of a dark angle of vengeance as the light form the gun fire glissandi in her eyes. "WHERE IS THE HIKARI WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH MY KITH YOU ANIMALS?" Yelled Venatrix in a righteous anger as she tried to get into the underground facility the guards were so focused on her that they did not notice that the yamis were taking them out faster than before.
It took twenty minutes until the guard were ether out cold, dead or dying "you've done well yamis let us go save the Hikari if you see anyone else give them one chance to surrender. If they do not kill them they knew that they would die for breaking the treaty and have taken our kith. So for them there is no mercy no more second chances" she hissed as normally blue eyes now glowed a bright blood red with silver slits. The yamis nodded red eyes glowing with a bloody glee from the blood bath they had just had. They entered the base meeting no more guard a few scientist saw them coming and ran they let them go. They meet no resistance until they reached the door where Yugi was behind; there was a small platoon of men waiting for them. "You have a choice surrender or die, there has been enough blood shed to night we just want our kith and we will leave go home to your families and let us pass for is the money you are getting worth your life?" A few men left the others stayed "you have made your choice now so be it" she looked at the yamis "have fun with them my children."
The yamis tore into them as if they were wolves, blood and gore went everywhere. The blood that spattered Venatrix's face seamed to glow in the artificial light and her silver skin. Venatrix walked over the dead to the door as it opened with a soft whoosh. Just like her first dream Venatrix saw was a sheet of white covering a body on a table well a hand dangled off the side blood dripped off it to form a small puddle on the floor. Venatrix keened to the heavens as she fell to her knees crying to the heavens in a puddle of blood that came from the Hikari she had failed in her duty to protect her kith. She saw the man with gray hair and a scar over his left eye "Leland 'Silas' Bishop, do you know what you have done?" asked Venatrix knowing what was coming next. "You have taken the life of my kith and a pure soul your own soul is for fit to me you have crossed a line and you are too dangerous to ever live again." she said her voice took on a deathly tone that no mortal could mimic no matter how hard they would want to her eyes a ghostly gray that were nether light nor dark tattoos appeared all over her body as she turned to him.
"Oh I think I know sweaty for from what I have found out I can use you to make an item. So instead of a ninety nine people I can just kill you and get all the power of seven items in one go." He said well pointing a gun at her head with a grin on his face; he was about to become the most powerful man on Earth at it was all thanks to this abomination and the bait that the young man had provided for him. He pulls the trigger aiming for her head; he watches as her head is thrown back with the force of the bullet as it goes through her head. He is surprised when she turns to him with the hole in her head streaks of black coming from her eyes like tears; if he had been anyone who knew the Transformers lore he would have known that it was dark energon.
The yamis shadowed in behind her when they heard the gun shot "Yamis take the Hikari and leave I do not want to risk destroying you" said Venatrix.
"But Venatrix…" started Malik in a worried voice
"NOW MALIK!" the Yamis take the Hikari and leave trough the shadows not caring what would happen to Silas but gave Venatrix a worried look. She ignores them, her eyes stayed on Silas she waits until they leave before she started to give off an eerie light that was almost dark in nature. "I call upon the power of Unicron this soul has proven too dangerous to continue for balance will never grace his soul so it can no longer be take thy body and devour this soul for all to be he cannot. For I am new life and the last breathe before death. I am Rebirth and the destruction of eternity when the beginning came I was there when the end will come I will be there. Your pain is my own as my joy is your own; I am order and chaos in balance. I am your mate and lover along with your enemy and brother we three are the balance that will be and not be. For I give you his soul to take destroy and recreate."
She no longer looked mortal as she moved tortes Silas she looked un-earthly a goddess on earth come to avenge her child. Silas didn't flinch or move just accepted his fate as it was; Venatrix put a hand over his heart and pulled out his soul before Unicron used her body to destroy it. Silas gave off one final scream before his body turned to dust. Venatrix said a soft prayer "I am Life that all are given I am Death that if fair to all, I am the good in every soul and the evil that can come, I am order and chaos, the light and the dark. I am the goddess of balance the Allspark I have judged with soul a danger to all let everyone know the fate of the souls that are a danger to the balance that I protect for I am nether pure good nor am I pure evil remember the day that the soul was destroyed and learn so as not to be next." With that said Venatrix left Yugi was still alive and need help fast there was no more to do here.
