NiGHTS caught the massive beast with his arms, causing the fangs to pierce his skin. He clenched his teeth, and Scykle grabbed Youko from behind, pulling on her hard. He wasn't super strong, but he would try.

NiGHTS turned his head around, then suddenly screamed "BOO!". The girl screeched, then disappeared in a flash of light. NiGHTS smiled, then turned back to the matter at hand.

[Aura24]

Youko began thrashing her head, sinking her fangs further into NiGHTS' arms. She winced when she felt Scykle pulling on her from behind; she raised her three large tails and lashed against his head to knock him away before taking to the air, taking NiGHTS with her.

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS screamed in pain, and Scykle flew back and hit a tree. His wounds were becoming worse. The purple Nightmaren planted his foot repeatedly in the fox's chest, in an attempt to get her to let go.

[Aura24]

Youko grunted each time NiGHTS delivered a kick to her chest and has had enough of it. With a flick of her head, she hurled the purple Nightmaren away, grazing her fangs on his arm in the process. Noticing that the Dreamer was gone, the red fox released a roar of fury before flying off into the distance.

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS hit a tree with a "THUNK" and fell to the ground, coughing. He looked over at Scykle. "What the hell?!" he shouted. Scykle shook his head, covered in black goo and gashes. He laid his head against the tree, and sighed.

"I think...Youko's still got her Nightmaren programming in her..." he panted, "I lost mine when you showed me that horrible scene, apparently, but she hadn't been there..." He coughed up some black stuff, then closed his eyes and moaned.

[Aura24]

Youko eventually landed on the grounds of Mystic Forest, lashing out and destroying anything that stood in her way as she snarled with fury. Her mind was cleared of emotions and has no memory of what she was before her Nightmaren self took over.

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS looked at Scykle with concern, then took off to find Youko, following her trail of destruction. Scykle sighed heavily, wanting to go with him, but completely unable to move.

[Aura24]

Youko's ears flicked when she heard NiGHTS, turning her head to where she heard him coming from. She snorted with irritation before darting further into the forest.

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS darted after her, dashing through the forest and dodging trees left and right. "What is WRONG with you?!"

[Aura24]

Youko snarled, and in a shimmer of light, her body splitted into three copies of herself before they all took off into three different directions.

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS stopped, then looked at all three of them. "Son of a..." He put a finger to where his chin would be, and started to think. What could he do to stop the ignorant fox...? He snapped his fingers.

"I've got it!" He began to look around frantically, until he found a Dreamer; one of HIS. The pink-haired girl looked up at the Nightmaren, giggling.

"Hello, NiGHTS, how are you?" she asked, waving. NiGHTS shook his head.

"Don't worry about that, I need your help," NiGHTS chuckled. He grabbed the girl by the back of the blouse, then pulled her higher up in the air. "OH YOUKO! I've got a nice tasty morsel for you!"

[Aura24]

Youko perked up when she caught the scent of a Dreamer close by. She looked up and saw NiGHTS holding onto the Dreamer she met earlier. Her eyes gleamed, before the red fox took to the air towards NiGHTS and the Dreamer, drawing closer and closer.

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS dropped the screaming Dreamer, then delivered a drill kick to Youko's face, between the eyes. The girl hit the ground, still screaming, and ran frantically away. NiGHTS would have to be sure to apologize, later.

[Aura24]

Youko yelped, pain flaring across the spot where NiGHTS kicked her as she shrilled loudly in agony, disoriented from the attack. She was sent flying into the trees, slamming against the branches before falling to the ground below, lying still.

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS looked down on Youko, then floated down to her, being extra-catious.

[Aura24]

Youko's body laid still, her breathing was low. Suddenly, she rose up in a flash and lunged at NiGHTS with open jaws and a snarl..

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS floated backwards, then delivered another kick to Youko's side; he wouldn't let her get the jump on him anymore. Scykle had made his way to Mystic Forest and limped his way out to where the scene was taking place.

"Youko..."

[Aura24]

Youko yelped again, backing off. She snarled over at NiGHTS again, starting to circle quite a distance from him, not noticing Scykle was there.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle stepped up next to NiGHTS, then took a fighting stance. "N-NiGHTS...I can help..." he managed. NiGHTS smiled, shaking his head.

"You never give up, do you kid?" he laughed, then turned to Youko. Scykle looked her in the eyes.

"C'mon, Youko, snap out of it..."

[Aura24]

Youko increased her snarls, venomously glaring at Scykle, baring her teeth aggressively as her three tails swayed behind her.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle sighed heavily, suddenly losing strength enough to stand. NiGHTS turned back to him. "Aw, c'mon, not now!" Scykle fell to one knee, holding himself up with at fist.

"Maybe, wasn't the best idea to come here..." he groaned.

[Aura24]

Youko began to advance slowly towards the two Nightmaren, growling softly in anticipation of tearing them both to shreds.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle, feigning (a few) of his injuries, suddenly jumped on Youko's back, wrapping his arms around her neck. NiGHTS leaped back, comfused. "What the...?" Scykle held on tight, not letting go.

"C'mon, Youko! You remember me, don't you?! Please?!"

[Aura24]

Youko bellowed in rage as she thrashed about madly, trying to get Scykle off and ignoring the words Scykle were saying to her. She began slamming against the trees in an attempt to get him off, but was also injuring herself.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle was being thrown around, but nothing much worse than what he'd already endured. If he held on long enough, whether she remembered him or not, she'd knock herself out.

"C'mon, I taught you to speak! Remember? Sick-ull!"

[Aura24]

Youko stiffened slightly as a distant memory emerged in her mind, but she furiously shook it away, still trying to get Scykle off her back. She turned her head towards her back, trying to bite at him as she barked ferociously.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle gripped tighter, repeating his name how he'd taught Youko to speak it not too long ago. He wasn't sure at this point whether he'd have to hold on until she knocked herself out or not.

[Aura24]

Youko roared furiously, managing to snap her jaws around Scykle's arms and tried to pull him off.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle yelped, hitting the ground. He was finished, and out of energy. NiGHTS floated down to him, and sighed. "You're gonna get killed, Scyk." He picked him up and tossed him into the bushes, then turned to Youko. "C'mon, you mongrel...let's dance!"

[Aura24]

Youko's eyes narrowed, then her body shimmered in light and three duplicate Youko appeared before NiGHTS.

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS growled, "C'mon, you mutt! Can't you fight me head on?" he grinned, "If I can beat Clawz, I can beat you."

[Aura24]

The three Youkos began circling around NiGHTS; the way their moving, it was hard to tell which one was the real Youko.

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS looked around, ready for anything. He clenched his fists, and stood his ground.

[Aura24]

Suddenly, all three Youkos lunged at NiGHTS at once..

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS dropped flat to the ground, deflating like a balloon, then slithered underneath the cats. He reappeared on the other side of them, smiling. "What's the matter? C'mon, attack me."

[Aura24]

The three Youkos snarled over at NiGHTS; one of them charged towards the purple jester.

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS flipped out of the way again, making his way slowly to a set of ruins nearby.

[Aura24]

Youko growled with irritation, before taking off after NiGHTS like a wolf on the hunt.

[EZEKiAL]

NiGHTS stood in front of a stone pillar, smiling. "Come get me, you flea-bitten mutt!" he taunted.

[Aura24]

Youko roared, charging towards NiGHTS and leapt up towards the pillar he was on, swiping for the purple Nightmaren.
