With a cackle to every step through the pitch darkness of their passage, Attra held on to the heels of the panicking Daphne, unaware that she had another passenger in her travels, an Alexandrian Soldier. The worst of the two evils grinned widely, a door opening up to reveal their location-- The Nowhere Wasteland. She tossed the Scientist onto the ground, and finally realized the soldier tagging along.
"UHgh, Dead Weight." mumbled the heartless side, standing straight and resting a hand on her hip. The other hung loosely against her thigh.
"What should we do...?"
"I'll handle it." an odd grin came upon her features. She extended her free hand to the sky, and within the grasp of her fingers, a menacing scythe appeared, "Sorry, but you aren't important to me, girl." she spoke to Ria. Keeping an eye also on the scientist, in case she decided to run away.

"Oof!"
Daphne wimpered as she crashed onto the floor of the wasteland, the sleeve to her labcoat being torn slightly by a jagged, jutting rock. She ran a hand over it and saw she'd been cut. Swearing under her breath she looked about her surroundings, noting that this was indeed no place for someone of her calibur and, when she tilted back to see a large castle-like structure in the distance, she began shivering.
"Naught Castle..." she whispered, turning over to see her kidnapper readying a scythe against her comrade Ria.
"No!" cried out the scientist, crawling over slowly to cover the other Alexandrian. "Please, don't hurt her...what do you want from us? Why are we here? Where is Sai, and where are the general and the others?!"

"Whaa!" shouted Ria, falling a bit aways from Daphne on her side. She would get up quickly and unsheathe that standard Alexandrian sword at the sight of the kidnapper, "S-stay where you are!" Ria would nervously warn, trying to protect the scientist, even though the scientist was doing so much to protect her.
She looked to their surroundings once, already having been here before, she decided to ignore it. The young soldier watched as a scythe was created in enemy hand, and she advanced forward.
"D-Daphne..!" whispered the soldier, wanting to protect her instead. She had better training than the scientist in the field, the least she could do is act as a young shield.

"Whats this...?" called the darker twin, cackling at the two "brave" souls; one asking questions and defending the younger one while the other just defended-- and NOTHING was happening, "Hahahhahaa, pathetic."
Attra twirled the scythe dangerously near the two, showing she could use the weapon well, and in the mean time threaten them to stay still.
" These two seem quite attached." echoed her "good" half.
"You are my prisoners, of course, you idiot woman." The heartless whispered, licking her lips, "And I will get to do AS I please if you don't be good little girls and stay still."
The two knew better than to call out their plans-- to Lure Sai here and to end him, as instructed by the Fallen. Afterward, she would be free to do anything with the unwanted bait... anything.
"No need for Torture...!"
"Yes..." whispered Attra, resting the bladed end of the scythe against the ground and lightly placing her boot over it in a cool pose, "... Be good girls, and you'll come out of this alive." she lied.

"R-Ria, no, stop! Withdraw, stand down! As your s-superior..."
Slowly Daphne attempted to stand up, rather cautious as she stared down the Heartless' reaper. "As an Alexandrian Soldier..." she started, her whole body shaking; try as she might, she couldn't control it. So much for the training she'd received back on Gaia.
"As an Alexandrian Soldier, General Beatrix...has taught us to-to fear nothing, not even a signature Heartless like yourself. You may be an elder being, b-but regardless, I shall not allow you to feed off our terror."
She slowly backed away and collected Ria with a free hand, while the other reached for her barely-unholstered handaxe. She brought it up protectively and glared down the Heartless, tears welling in her eyes.
"We've been tr-trained to be Alexandria's finest. You'll have to kill us before we stand down for your plans to come to fruition!"

"Hoooh?" Attra raised an eyebrow. With every step back Daphne took, the heartless girl took one step forward. She swung the scythe like a massive pendulum, causing sparks to fly off with every contact it made with the solid stone beneath. She was playing them at this point. A smirk crossed her features and she began to sway her body from one side to the other, balancing out with her massive scythe's movements, "Trained, you say? Know how to deal with heartless, you say? Wow. Now I'm nervous." she joked.
"Don't kill them so soon! We need them alive...!" Nivea warned.
"Correction..." countered Attra to the air, "We need one of them alive."
-------------------
Ria tried to stand forward, being brave in defending Daphne, but the scientist wasn't letting her do her job! She kept that standard blade pointed at the heartless, growing nervous as the scythe was being used as a pendulum. While Daphne spoke, she noticed those red eyes of the enemy dart this way and that, as if focused on another conversation.
"She's nuts..." whispered the youngest soldier to herself, gulping afterward at the enemies choice of words. "...just one alive...?" she squeaked. The grip on her sword got tighter.

Nexus and Airinose streamed through hyperspace, leaving only a long trail of light behind them.
"Faster Airinose, they might be in trouble!!" Nexus yelled out
"As you wish, I'll go as fast as your magic and my wings can take us" Airinose replied
The ball of light that they were traveling in let out a burst of light as the dragon added a burst of speed to their travel.

"Stay away from us," Daphne tried, attempting to sound as noble as any Alexandrian visitor aboard the Red Rose. "You have not been given permission to approach me, and you'll be sorry if General Beatrix or her allies find you..."
She gulped hard, hoping that she was right. Attra's closing-in, however, dissuaded her deeply. "Ria, I'm here with you...please, be patient and don't worry."
SWISH!
The swing of the reaper's pendulum was a bit closer now than the Head Scientist had guessed, and she had to jump back--Ria in tow--in order to keep from being decapitated.
"Get away from me! Fire!" She tossed her small axe at the Heartless, her eyes widening as it combust into a mild flame.

Airinose and Nexus streamed through hyperspace, finally arriving at "the world that never was", the ball of light they were creating streaking a crossed the sky as they looked for their targets.

"You talk too much!" Attra grunted, dashing forward now and about to decapitate them BOTH. The moment the axe sparked in flame, she twirled her scythe and deflected it and sent it far from the two.
"What are you doing!?" That voice would sound almost distant, "We need her!!"
"We don't need her TONGUE, though!" cackled the crazed heartless, swinging the horrible weapon up to strike it down with grace, "OR the heart of the other!!"
---------------------------------------------------------------------
-KSH-SHIIIING!!- The scythe was stopped midway into striking the two down. Ria had blocked it with the blade of her sword, and her hands held it up, her whole form quivering from the disturbing strength behind that blow. She was holding the heartless back now.
"G-gnrr!!" grunted Ria, "B-By order of the Alexandrian Army... s-STOP!"
---------------------------------------------------------------------
"You Blocked it...?!" Attra sounded, surprised at the gutsy move of the young soldier, "I see.... you think you are not going to make it easy on me are you!?" a sick grin came upon her features, pressing down further on the scythe, causing Ria to go on her knees.
"TCH! YOU WISH!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"D-Daphne get back!!" cried Ria, losing her grip and ready to jump out of the way as soon as the scientist did.

As she was told to, Daphne jumped back as best she could and crouched down, hugging her knees to her breast.
"This has got to stop! This is crazy, crazy! Where is Sai!"

As Nexus and Airinose flew a crossed the sky, they finally found the soldiers they were looking for. Nexus pointed out to the side "Airinose , there, go there" he said as he saw the scythe being swung around .
"I'm trying Nexus, but i don't have nothing left" Airinose was breathing heavily
Nexus looked at Airinose and patted her neck, "Don't worry i'll handle it" Nexus told her. Before she could reply Nexus leaped from her back falling down to the ground below
"Wind, Earth, grant me your grace" Nexus called out as he fell. Nexus hit the ground, not more then thirty feet behind the soldiers. When he landed he sent up a huge puff of smoke, but before the smoke even began to clear, Nexus shot out of the cloud like a cannon.
"SHhh'ink" "Clang" Nexus's sword was pulled out quickly and landed against the scythe. Instantly the weight on Ria was lifted as Nexus placed his other hand on his own blade and began to push the Heartless back. While pushing at the Heartless Nexus looked down at Ria and smiled, with the look of worry still in his eyes " You.....you called for me?"he said

"Nexus!" cried Ria, happy to see him.
"What the--" The heartless gasped, her eyes narrowing at the sight of the dragon hunter, her grip on the scythe becoming tighter, "I DIDN'T INVITE YOU!" she yelled, and twisted the scythe with such a force, it bounced both the weapons of the youngest soldier and nexus away long enough for her to twirl the stick end of her weapon to lash at Nexus obviously injured arm. A cheat move, of course.
Ria saw the happenings, and using her training, she twirled to the injured side of Nexus (in a dance like manner) and blocked the oncoming scythe attack, "Weasel!" she shouted, blushing lightly as she looked to Nexus, "I... I did call for you..." she smiled softly, looking over to the villain, "This woman was after Dr. Daphne for some reason!"
"Things are getting too complicated...!" Nivea, that small voice in the back of Attra's mind sounded, "We need a new plan!"
Attra jumped back and held her ground there, pointing the bladed end toward the three and thinking quick. In the play they were quite the saps into helping out those in need, so...
"Wait-- what??" before anything else could be mentioned, Attra's body changed to that of Nivea's -- the human that was locked inside for a while. The scythe grew heavy in her arms and she had to lower it. Now she was the one in control... "Ow... uh"
Nivea looked up to the others and grew a little nervous-- understanding what the heartless wanted to do...
"Wow... um... how did I get here?" she gasped, "Who are you guys??"

Nexus stared with his sword pointed outward, his eyes never left it's dragon like look, he watch in confusion, as the dark shadow that surrounded the heartless in front of him began to shift and swirl turning into a hue of light. Nexus shook his head a couple times before sheathing is sword.
He reached out and put his hand on top of Ria's bringing it and her sword down, forgetting to remove his hand afterward. Keeping his eyes on the woman "I don't know what you are or how that other person was part of you, but you are still apart of her. so please hold your ground for a moment." he spoke to her in a calm tone
Nexus turn to look at Daphne, he looked her over to see that she was ok , then with a little nod he turned to Ria.
Before Nexus could think of what to say his injured hand was already cupping the side of her face. "Are you ok, are you injured, i was worried i wouldn't make it in time. " he was able to say that, even tho his heart was still thumping loudly, no longer from fighting but from more now.

the heartless saw the opportunity and took it as any un-fair fighter would.
the executioner reared back her palm and forced charged darkness right into the dragon hunters side, just under the arm. "you to are so cute together... shame i have to kill you... oh wait no it isn't the heartless chuckled "you do know that wasn't funny shut up...
