"Shall I give you despair?"
How much time had passed? Nana knew not, but she had the vague sense that a considerable amount of time had transpired before she realized it. Where had she been and what had she been doing? Who was she for that matter? What was she? The tall blonde woman opened her golden colored eyes as she came to realization- she had been asleep. A deep sleep that robbed her of time and reason. She sat up from her comfortable bed, naked and stared into the mirror. A visage flashed before her briefly, a similarity to her own self which she did not quite recognize. She was uncertain as to when it had happened, but the woman known as Nana had lost her memories. Her identity, her preferences, accomplishments and even her crimes: all of them had gone in an unknown instant. She would have been completely lost then, a husk of her former self- but her constant companion had helped her regain just her name. The demon that resided within her, Zalambur. How had she lost her memories? She couldn't be certain, but she couldn't even remember certain emotions even now.. how they felt and even what elicited a reaction to them. She knew of only one emotion, a hunger for pleasure. This had become her driving force, her reason to continue living. She stood from her bed and disregarded the other six naked women who were passed out in her bed. They were her offerings, sacrifices even if she so desired. The woman dressed herself in her usual attire- a semi-see through fishnet outfit that covered her rich black undergarments. She threw on her overly large fur coat atop her scantily dressed figure and then made her way out of the room. Today she had agreed to take on a mission with a certain man, a colleague of hers apparantly, from her old life. He knew her, yet she could not remember him. One reason she had taken this mission with the man known as Erebus, was in hopes that she would rekindle memories while being near the man. She was the first to arrive at their rendezvous point. There was no telling how long she would be waiting, yet part of her seemed to know it would not be long. Once he arrived, she would greet him casually, though her eyes remained dead with disinterest. "Good morning, Erebus." she would say. The way she said it sounded painful, as if she had practiced speaking normally for hours to herself, for which she had done. WC-426 WC Total-???

Erebus arrived at a street somewhere in east of Hosenka. He carried with him all of his gear and clothes, a spear fastened to his back and a sword holstered against that creating an X cross at his shoulders and hip line. His hair was pink and grown out past his ears, which still had the same metal beads pierced through them, his facial expression was in ponder as he approached a lit walkway and met at the rendezvous point.
The woman was the same he’d become familiar with in the past, he had practically watched Nana grow. So he was hesitant to meet a reaction from her when he arrived. Though, was shocked to see her not as her usual self. “Ah, Nana.” He said. Entering the area and looking around at the lanterns on peoples doors. “It has been awhile, I hear you have new ventures. Are you familiar with the gangster we’re meeting up with?” Erebus said.
His hand reached for his shirt collar and he pulled a lacrima tube that casted a 4K picture of a pale burlesque bald man, he had a single missing tooth and a gold underbite grill. “Big Eye Barney.” Erebus said, in reference to his enlarged pupil on the right side. “Rumor has it, his eye is a magical implant. Worth a steep bit if it’s true… But little could be determined by our connection. Prior to the Akudama, he was protected in the Underworld.” Erebus said, allowing the hologram to fade, and the lacrima to fizzle into arcana dust. He only had a few more of those, but this was a special circumstance.
Erebus wanted that eye.

"Shall I give you despair?"
Had there been a hint of disappointment of fondness in their meeting, it was lost on Nana. While she was indeed Nana, the very young adventurer that Erebus had tutored in the ways of the dagger, it was also not the Nana that Erebus knew. She was something new, or different. Had she not found common interest in the Akudama Syndicate, Erebus would be just another face: a threatening face at that. Not that Nana felt or understood the concept of danger any longer. The humanity within her had been snuffed out, replaced by something more feral, or even demonic. One look at Nana and her old teacher would know that she was no longer his pupil. She was in her own right, a force to be reckoned with. The new Nana also knew of Erebus' reputation and regarded him equally as dangerous, though with disinterest. "A minor gang, although their leader often finds expensive wares with his sticky fingers and insightful... eye." she would say, allowing the pun to hang in the air. This man was the very target of their information gathering. If the rumors of his eye were true, there could be small wars in the streets while several petty gangs sought to take from weaker gangs. In this case, they'd want the man's eye if it was indeed magical. Information was power and an eye like that would give any gang an advantage- just as it was doing for Big Eye Barney. Unfortunately, his endeavors ahd stirred the ire and interest of rival gangs. "It would have been quite less convoluted to hire us to kill the man and retrieve his eye... rather than investiaget the rumor." she would say, equally character-like of her former self. Some things never changed. Nana nodded down the ally passed their rendezvous point towards two men just thirty meters away. "Those two work of Big Eye Barney. Let's tail them to his hideout and ascertain for ourselves the validity of this rumor." she would put in as a suggestion, curt and to the point with business. While her and Erebus were now associates and fellow Dons of an upcoming dark guild, there was little reason for them to conspire. Something tugged at Nana's heart but she lacked the ability to understand it or its implications. There was a hole in her heart and soul, which she was filling with the only thing that seemed to sate her anymore. Lust. Of course lust came in many forms. Currently, she was lusting after information to gratify the tug within her entity. After this mission was over, she would sate her body's lust as a reward for a job well done. WC-448 WC Total-874

Erebus was preoccupied with Nana, as she explained that getting jobs ‘well-done’ was more inteiquinh than stakeouts. Whereas, he would normally agree, his opinion was resolute. “I am in agreement, I’d rather just take it as well. But there’s a chance to really grow our influence, expand our control on the streets.” Erebus made a grand gesture towards the path before them, and all the night-life and neon lights keeping the magic town buzzing.
“If there was anything I learned, getting this far. It’s that you’ll need lots of that.” Erebus smirked at the end of his words— he moved with a haste to his step, behind the cover of a wall with Nana— the two peered across the highway at some goons Nana had suggested were related to Barney. They caught sights of the targets, these lackeys, and Nana sought to waste no more time here and follow them.
“I guess it couldn't hurt, I’ll take the lead then.” Erebus said, pushing forward to creep through the darkness and maintain a short distance behind the pair. Nightstalker made every step muffled like a pillow foot, carrying the man towards this unsuspecting duo. It was then that he came within earshot, and eavesdropped into the conversation the two were in midst of…
“Hurry up and let’s gett’t back to the boss, you know this meeting is impor-“
“Shut up! Don’t you even mention a thing outside of the lair, you know Barney will pull your eyes out!”
“But what’re we doin’ bout the new Dons and their tax on the Black Market, why hasn’t Barney called us sooner, it’s been a week already?!”
“I just told you not to speak of the shadows, you know they rule this city!!”
Erebus clicked the communicator on his ear, in case Nana had taken another route and wasn’t right beside him anymore, while he stalked the targets. “Do you copy?— good— it’s a pity we don’t know how big his gang is by the numbers, if we knew what kind of influence this guy had. I would say we should take their uniforms, but at this rate— I’m sure that this meeting will be small, and whatever is ahead of us should be an easy bag.”

"Shall I give you despair?"
Erebus had decided to tail the two lackeys of Big Eye Barney. Nana had decided that she would remain within a close proximity to them, but still out of site. While the two men were on street level, Nana had followed them inconspiciously from the rooftops. Infiltrating the target's base could prove challenging if the two Akudama Syndicate members couldn't appropriate effective camoflouge. The camoflouge in this case would be Big Eye barney's lackeys' uniforms. Not so much uniforms, as a way of fashion to indicate that they belonged to their small time leader. Alleviating those two men of their clothing could be a challenge, for multiple reasons. First, obtaining their clothing without causing a scene in which would give away the Akudama Syndicate members' location and identities. Second was obtaining the clothing without harming the articles themselves. A damaged outfir would be a red flag to any organized crime that was able to outlive the inquisition of the Rune Knights, The third reason for the difficulty was the purpose of the meeting. That was what the two Akudama Syndicate members didn't know. Even after tailing them, the one with tight lips kept interrupting the loose mouthed one and it gave no indication to Nana or Erebus. After observing from a short but safe distance, Nana would finally give her own assessment. "It seems we will have to take their outfits by force. Wait until the two of them go around the next corner. It is cut off from the other streets for a good fifty meters. We'll kill the cautious underling and pry out any information out of his loose-mouthed buddy before we kill him." she would say into her magitek device, conveying her opinion of how they should handle this situation, to Erebus. Murder, torture, stealing. These were but a few crimes Nana had or would commit this day. She waited from above and looked for an opportunity to strike the men without damaging their outfits.

Erebus nodded at Nana’s declaration formally, and mystified into thin air. He tailed the men alongside the blonde don— remotely on the other side of the street, staring the two down like a vicious 5th dimensional terror stalking their forms. Nana was adjusting to her take her own measures Ere figured. Erebus was already so silent, that he never emitted sound, for as long as anyone had known him. Carefully he pulled there, caps off and they floated backwards as Erebus carefully placed them on the ground.
Then, he rammed both their heads together— knocking them out cold, as he re-formed into the shade of the building’s alley.
He waved Nana down to approach. In the meantime, Erebus expected she would loot them and undress their bodies. He pulled out a Telescope, and looked down the block, as the road abead forked and also trailed a hill descending their location. In the distance, Barney’s lair could be identified by party lights, and bumping House music. Which came from the street’s only club on this side of town.
“Or maybe I was wrong— looks like he’s having a party.” Erebus changes out of his own things, and leaves his gear in the alley behind a mattress that is cut through the center. He dons the uniform of the Goon and awaits Nana— as she is cued to lead.

"Shall I give you despair?"
Nana knew Erebus was fully capable of incapacitating two lackies, even without damaging a disguise outfit. That was why she had reiterated her idea to him, so that he was tracking not to damage the clothes. All that was left was for an overwatch until Erebus had done the deed. She watched from the rooftop as suddenly, the two men were picked up and their heads were bashed together. Both men were knocked unconscious, effective but also a slight inefficient action. Looking around cautiously, she didn't jump down until she was sure that no one would disturb them for the time being. Satisfied, she leaped from her rooftop perch and landed on the opposite side of Erebus, across fromt he two prone unconscious men. "Let's hope one of them will wake up." she would say nonchalantly as she reached down and began to unclothe the men from their outfits. She left them in their underwear and then slapped the talkative man awake. He awoke with a start and nearly screamed until Nana clamped his throat so tightly that he could not suck in any air. She grabbed his unconscious friend as well and began to squeeze until that man also awoke in a panic due to the lack of air. She held them up in the air, suspended from the ground by her sheer magnitude of strength and slightly released the grip on the talkative man. "Talk quickly. Answer my questions or your friend will die." she would say and notion with her head with emphasis to the suffocating man as he clawed her her iron grip in futility. "Tell us where Big Eye barney will be during this party of theirs. Tell us what your important meeting will be about." she would demand with cold uncaring charisma. Her lifeless eyes showed that she held no compassion for their lives. "The big boss is going to be on the main stage until he finishes giving a speech to the new underlings. Afterwards, he'll retire to his treasure room where he counts and recounts his riches." the talkative man would blurt out, not caring for his ally's life- but his own. "We're the spies from another crime group and the we have a meeting to tell the boss what we know. I told you what we know. Kill this other guy but spare me!" he would beg. His ally was already suffocating and couldn't understand what was going on. With a single squeeze of her hands, she broke both of the mens' necks. their limp lifeles bodies dropped from her grip and hit the ground hard. She wasted no time and began to strip off her own clothing as she spoke to Erebus. "We'll infiltrate their party and look for an opportunity to meet with Big Eye Barney alone. We'll approach him on his way to his treasury and profess to be the spies from the other cime group. I'll do the talking, you observe Big Eye Barney and find out if the man truly possesses the rumored eye." she would explain to Erebus. By now, she was fully dressed. She rolled up her own clothing and handed the clothes to her companion Spur. "Hold onto these for me, Spur." she would instruct and prepare to make her way towards Big Eye barney's party.

Nana’s brute actions, made even Erebus need to look away. He wasn’t particularly the most fascinated by bloodshed, it was normal to him. But it was the kind of normal experience you didn’t particularly enjoy all the time. Something of it, stood in the way of things. But like other things, killing was a result that founded result. So he couldn’t hold it against her too much.
They both dropped their clothes and changed, it wasn’t like Erebus hadn’t been doing the same things for years. These tactics, while all the silly and unconventional, had an uncertain irony for working.
Erebus was the second to go into the Tavern which had been flipped and renovated into the coolest nightclub in Hosenka. With LEDs and women, void of an upper-garment, threw back glasses and shots and screamed.
Ere himself even found a bit of alcohol, grabbing it off a plate, and pitching two back himself. He then pushed and wafted through the dark club. Approaching a door protected by two bouncers.
This is where Erebus would confide a little bit of trust in the Lust Don. Perhaps, with her arsenal, she would be a more accepting fit to be let into the other side of parties like this. Meanwhile, Erebus would simply hold up here. Searching for a way to meet her around the other side.
“Where you need to go, I won’t be able to follow. Trust me— I’ve seen places like this before. What I’d rather you heed— is some advice, try to avoid deception. Don’t drink anything handed to you— and wait for my signal. I think I know a way to really make an entrance…” he recalled a woodshed a few houses ago, he might have something fun in mind. To truly sate the sadistic side of oneself. Finding ways to spur a new story were important— and thankfully, Erebus knew a few things from his time, to really infest the mind of terror.
He turned away from the blonde and headed back for the door— where he’d stumble down a few of the steps, feeling his shots beginning to take their solution.
Inhibitions? What inhibitions.

"Shall I give you despair?"
Nana was the first to enter the building. The music was loud and the lights were all bizarre. The "night life" or whatever of the degenerates. Males and females gyrated in undulations from the beats of a DJ who stood at the far end of the room. The smell of sweaty bodies mixed with the pugnant spell of various alcohols. Out of everything in the building, Nana recognized one sight. In a far corner to the left of Big Eye Barney's private chambers, was a table with two men and one woman. A small pouh of red powder sat on the table. The powdered bag danced myriads of shapdes of living red as the various lights bounced off of it. If Nana could smile from pure satisfaction, it was from this. Lust. Gratification of her own products being fown even n the most degenerate of shadows. "It seems my product is even in a pit of trash like this." she would say absently. More toward Erebus than anything, and in response to him instructions. She hadn't actually responded to him. He was acting like a big brother or father figure who worried for her chastity. As Erebus stumbled down the stairs, one would normally question if the man could pull this off. Erebus was an exceptional man however. Nana knew even if he sat down and drank a barrel of alcohol, he would still find a way to accomplish whatever he set out to do. It was similar for Nana, although her ambitions were less than wholesome or even violent. Violence was only the most common and direct method to get what she desired. With Erebus out of sight, Nana would loosen her blouse a little bit to make sure her ample bosom was impossible to miss. Effective. As she approached the two guards at Big Eye Barney's door, both of their heads turned to become magnetized to her explosed cleavage. She began her acting. "There's so little alcohol in here! I heard the boss had the best booze." she said, ending her statement with a disappointed tone. The two guards looked at each other, perplexed. Their job was to make sure no one entered the boss' room without an appointment or approval. "By the way.. I'm supposed to meet the boss about a rival gang. He's... expecting me." she would say, pausing briefly to accentuate her point. It was seductive and business altogether. The two guards got the message and one of them disappeared into the room for a second. One minute or so later, he reappeared and Big Eye barney was standing behind him. He too oggled her hourglass figure and rested his lustful eyes on the exposed skin of her cleavage. Nana gzed even passed him briefly to the others in his private room. Various women of relative beauty. Not only did Big Eye Barney have an eye for magical items, but also for beautiful women. He was in luck or so he thought, for one of the most beatiful stood before him. How had this woman been in his business without him knowing? he could only imagine how the other ruffians treated her and a sense of pride and selfishness overtook his mind. "Ah so you're one of the spies that was selected to check on the rival gang. Well. I can see why you got into the rival gang." he would say and then motion for the guard to let her into the room. Nana brushed passed the guards nonchalantly. She had been given permission by the "big boss" after all. As Big Eye Barney sat down comfortably on his sofa, Nana pusheed herself between his small harem of women and wedged herself directly onto Big Eye Barney's left side. So close in fact, that as she crossed her luxurious and long legs- her overlapped leg slightly rested on Big Eye barney's lap. She looked directly at him as he spoke, her eyes not wavering at all at the disproportionately large right eye compared to the left eye. She could only assume that was a sore subject and the quickest way to lose his favor. "Let's hear your information, my little bunny~ Afterwards, how about you join my harem. You're too good for the likes of my lackeys.~" he would say in a sweetend tone. The other women weren't happy to have an exceptional beauty intrude upon their layer of mediocrity. They attempted to distract Big Eye barney in various ways, but Nana proved their efforts futile. One tried to poor a glass of alcohol for the boss, but Nana siezed it from her grip and began to pour the drink for him, herself. Pleased, he took the cup with one hand as he casually snaked his other hand around and over her shoulder and rested his free hand against one of her breasts and squeezed with a strong sense of authority and ownership. "Ahh.. booze poured by a beautiful woman is the best!" he would say with an exclamation that even his two guards from the other side of the door heard. WC-848 WC Total-2,603

Erebus first grabs the tools most usable to him. A finely wound gauze tape, he begins covering his forearms and face with it, hiding his traces as a criminal anyone would recognize immediately. Then explores the room, locating a yellow saw— a chainsaw device as you’d have it.
He quickly retrieved it and brings it to a large work table, and pulls a dangling string. The string illuminated the dim room, and Erebus furthers his impatience by yanking downward on the device’s clutch, attempting to resurrect it with the sudden electrical spark created from the friction within.
One time— and slight buzzing could be heard, the sound of a fan beginning to spark back to life. A second and third time, and the same result. The power was low, or fuel one… “Fucking bullsh—“ he stopped his thought processes off like this always, a little bit of aggravation and you can figure anything out. Ere found with his self trying to get the smallest and rather most insignificant things to do his bidding was his greatest mood killer.
“Come ooonnn.” He started again, yanking the long string from the motor’s side.
“Come on!” Throttle button pushed, and clutch ripped upward with the strength of a superhuman. Erebus failed to see his chances, he began to shuffle about the room. Pushing boxes of glass over, and more or less finding his own methods of finishing his little episode.
Finally a small red gas can was located behind a tool shelf. Erebus unscrewed the black cap against the mechanical device he’d laid across a wooden table, lit by only the toolshed’s ligjt above.
After filling to the line, and watching some of the gas spill down the side, Erebus managed a cheek smirk. The fumes of the diesel stench reached his nose, and he breathed the scent of the gasoline. Before his arm took one last spin at the machine— if it didn’t work now, he was going to be shit out of luck.
But God shines upon his favorites.
Vrrr—brr-brr-brr— “Oh yeah…” —VROOM! Erebus kicks the wooden door open, and outside the building. He stares fifty meters away, towards the nightclub.
The chainsaw gripped behind his sweaty palms, hummed and rumbled for a target to saw along its spinning metallic chains. He begins setting off towards the building. Quickly some guards noticed he was approaching. They placed a hand on their sword-sheathes, and a hand in front of their bodies.
“Halt!”
Erebus lifts his head to the moon, unbothered by trivial bystanders in his game.
His form becomes invisible, but the sound of the chainsaw doesn’t. All of a sudden the guard is picked up by the chest, the red innards flying outside of his back. As he rumbles and the blood soaking his shirt decorated Erebus as a red blob, an invisible man. He began a sprint for the stairs, slicing and chopping down bodies. The commotions causes screaming. Albeit, the sound of those screams turned out to be unheard, and so, person by person, Erebus hacks and takes down humans like a weed eater, back towards Barney’s wall.
He wondered… “Wonder if they know I’m out here yet..?”

The power was low, or fuel one… “Fucking bullsh—“ he stopped his thought processes off like this always, a little bit of aggravation and you can figure anything out. Ere found with his self trying to get the smallest and rather most insignificant things to do his bidding was his greatest mood killer.
“Come ooonnn.” He started again, yanking the long string from the motor’s side.
“Come on!” Throttle button pushed, and clutch ripped upward with the strength of a superhuman. Erebus failed to see his chances, he began to shuffle about the room. Pushing boxes of glass over, and more or less finding his own methods of finishing his little episode.
Finally a small red gas can was located behind a tool shelf. Erebus unscrewed the black cap against the mechanical device he’d laid across a wooden table, lit by only the toolshed’s ligjt above.
After filling to the line, and watching some of the gas spill down the side, Erebus managed a cheek smirk. The fumes of the diesel stench reached his nose, and he breathed the scent of the gasoline. Before his arm took one last spin at the machine— if it didn’t work now, he was going to be shit out of luck.
But God shines upon his favorites.
Vrrr—brr-brr-brr— “Oh yeah…” —VROOM! Erebus kicks the wooden door open, and outside the building. He stares fifty meters away, towards the nightclub.
The chainsaw gripped behind his sweaty palms, hummed and rumbled for a target to saw along its spinning metallic chains. He begins setting off towards the building. Quickly some guards noticed he was approaching. They placed a hand on their sword-sheathes, and a hand in front of their bodies.
“Halt!”
Erebus lifts his head to the moon, unbothered by trivial bystanders in his game.
His form becomes invisible, but the sound of the chainsaw doesn’t. All of a sudden the guard is picked up by the chest, the red innards flying outside of his back. As he rumbles and the blood soaking his shirt decorated Erebus as a red blob, an invisible man. He began a sprint for the stairs, slicing and chopping down bodies. The commotions causes screaming. Albeit, the sound of those screams turned out to be unheard, and so, person by person, Erebus hacks and takes down humans like a weed eater, back towards Barney’s wall.
He wondered… “Wonder if they know I’m out here yet..?”

"Shall I give you despair?"
Nana wasn't certain how Erebus would handle his own business on the matter, but Nana had ways of accomplishing their goal, even if Erebus proved to be passed out in a ditch somewhere. For now though, the ebst thing to do was to keep Big Eye barney comfortable and non-suspecting. The tricky part was divulging any information about the other gang that the spies were assigned to report about. If Nana didn't know any of the details and she began to make things up, this small time crime boss might realize she wasn't actually one of his underlings. "Say.. You look somewhat familiar.." Big Eyed barney said, snapping nana back to her thoughts. Of course she would seem familiar. She held a considerable reputation in the country of Fiore and beyond. Most only knew her by name or by her iconic wepaons, Veritas and Aquitas. The dual gunblades that had assisted or even carried Nana throughout her rise in infamy in her earlier days. Not that she remembered most of it, but it was there and unable to be retracted from the whole world's recollection. She smiled disarmingly at Big Eyed barney and poured him another glass of alcohol. "I get that a lot. I think it's usually because guys try to fllirt with me." she would say nonchalantly. Big Eyed barney was already giddy from the alcohol, a second glass would dull his awareness more. Suddenly there was a minor humming noise. It was inconsequential to everyone but Nana. The music was loud. the movements of bodies and the flashing lights easily camoflouged the sound, but it was still approaching. Nana wasn't certain what the noise was, but before too long- the sound would become much too loud even for the music as it became clear to which direction it was coming from. The front door. Moments later, carnage ensued as a bandaged man burst through the front doors and began to whimsically swing a chainsaw at anyone in his path. he was heading straight for Big Eyed barney's private booth area and Nana fully suspected she knew the culrpit. She took advantage of the situation to get as much information out of the small time crime boss, before things would become too hectic. "Oh no! That's one of my creepy stalkers! He wields a magical weapon!" she would say loudly.. loud enough for even Erebus to hear, feigning surprise and fear at the commotion. Surprised but trying to save face from nearly being startled to death, Big Eyed barney thought to impress his new harem woman. he sat his glass of alcohol down and yanked open the door to his booth just as Erebus's ragged form covered in blood, would come into view. His two guards reacted but would find themselves as no match once Erebus chose to kill them. Big Eyed barney stared intently at the weapon as his guards went to meet this crazy stalker. His magic eye analyzed the weapon and he laughed to himself. "Bah! That's not a magical weapon. I have an eye for these things, my dear. That's just a regular chainsaw." he would say smuggly, confident his two guards could handle a singular lunatic with a regular chainsaw. Nana had picked up on the subtle nuances and information. It seemed that the rumors were true about Big Eyed Barney's magical eye. Now Nana just needed a way to escape without drawing the man's suspicion. That was where Erebus would come in handy.

“A simple tune up will change his tune quick.” Erebus said, as he slaughtered mercilessly to the music and strobe lights, with brutal and vicious aggression like that of a monster, cracking and dismantling bones under the pure blunt force of the strikes, following by the saw caning the walls in bone marrow and guts.
Erebus unrevved the chainsaw, after decapitating all real threat to his life.
He had what he wanted, and simply dropped the machine. The information and the fear, were the only genuine things Erebus saw fit in acquiring. Upon hearing Nana, and her charade, Erebus sighed. “Yes I am a stalker, a stalker of you Barney— and of her, thanks to you sending her to stare at our enemies, it led us to you. You think you’re more worthy than those Eternal Nightmare mages… Or maybe the Akudama Syndicate? You think you sit at a table with the real bad guys, a piece of shit Chainsaw was enough. You’re owned. I declare you nothing, but a subordinate. As do I take your little spy there, with me.” Erebus said, amusing himself with a narcissistic sneer to his babble— he wasn’t a good actor, not like Nana. Of course— it was all just an act from the start, this was Erebus plan so she could get close to Barney in the future, to manipulate his actions in benefit of their organization. So he quickly showed how serious he really was.
“So my first course of action, is to reprimand all of your networking, all contacts.” Erebus peeled his head to the side— cracking a joint bothering him somewhere in the neck, his tone had grown fiercely more serious, pit-like and empty. As if his husk was hallow of soul or spasm. “Or I’ll rip that fucking eye from your face.”
Erebus had said his peace, and really. That was all he needed to do, the man in his nakedness groveled and wept, realizing how useless he truly was. What fear he had amounted, what reputation he commanded. Was useless to Gods— and Erebus was not even a God, simply. The better man.
“…Oh God… oh God… OH GOD NO— PLEASE, JUST DON’T KILL ME. ANYTHING, BELIEVE IT, I CAN SEE THINGS OTHERS CANNOT. AND I’VE SEEN SOMETHING IN YOU.. YOU’RE THE TRUE EVIL IN MAN ARE’T YOU… CONJURED AS AN INDIVIDUAL, YOU REPRESENT SOMETHING GRAND— SOMETHING PLANNED. I SWEAR THE FEALTY OF MY RANKS AND MEN AND I CAN STAND IN, SO THAT YOU NEVER HAVE TOO. I AM AFRAID OF THE DEMONS AFTER DEATH, ONE’S OF TALE. I KNOW THEY WILL HAVE ME IF YOU DO NOT!!”
Nana liked to quarrel the mind of others. Erebus wasn’t one to do so, and yet even he couldn’t help but laugh and clap. Time had done a number on the good efforts and graces of Ere… In his late twenties now, he couldn’t help but feel the infamous cast on his image, in fact, he had become it. Knowing all too well the shit that spewed from this ass before them— Barney— was the result of accepting death— and giving Erebus his soul. In that way, Erebus was more demon than Human— but he wasn’t, he was just man. True fear, lied in man— the most deceptive, and creative, creature in the cosmos. To demasculate a gang leader, a terrorist and respected criminal aristocratic… and the even further depress the individual’s lackluster soul as not enough, at the lowest status quo, the Underworld. That was something beyond regular man, and Erebus didn’t spend a drop of mana.
The Don, pitched one last glance at his colleague and waved her away. “Leave, I’ll see to it that you can watch Barney, and his cohorts, as a General. What is your name then— (Assuming, alias going forward with Barney’s cohorts is ‘Pestilence’) ? Speak and hope to never betray this opportunity.” He then kicked the chainsaw to the furthest reaches of the room and sat at a chair on the shadier side of the room, incense and foreign scents which were hazy and ghostlike gave one the prescense of a predator spirit, staring down a wounded gazelle. Erebus was going to like it here… in Hosenka.
He had already patented this man’s militia, and loyalty, in the subjugation of humiliation, and surrender.

"Shall I give you despair?"
Erebus had really done a number on Big Eyed barney's club. not only his club, but his personal image as a crime boss and the leader of hs immediate followers. Plus his image as a man. Cowering in fear before the bandage wrapped Erebus, Big Eyed barney had given up on himself in every way. A coward at heart, the man had soiled himself in fear, an instinctual reaction of prey when they were about to be devoured by a ravenous predator. All of Big Eyed Barney's harem had scattered when their crime boss' forces had been dispatched and the man himself had surrendered to the threat of Erebus without a fight. All of the women had fled, except for Nana. Whom had sat patiently in her seat while the display of power and submission played out before her. On one hand, she had edged this whole situation to fruition, but she could never truly predict what Erebus would do. Improvising was simply the most effective strategy. It required very little planning after all. The base requirement was the understanding of the foe's mental structure and desires. Big Eyed Barney was easy in those regards. He had simply chosen a location where there was a power vaccum to flex his own power. Now that real power had come in and swept him along in its struggle, he folded like a castle of cards. Truly pathetic. Overall, the two AKudama syndicate members had accomplished their primary goal. To Nana, this Big Eyed Barney and his little band of misfits hardly seemed worth her time, but Erebus had thought of something. Not one to give away their own secrets, Nana played along. "Ofcourse, big boss!" she would say, once Erebus had laid claim to her personage in a show of authority over Big Eyed Barney. In this way, Erebus had advocated Nana's fake identity into fruition and further elevated her fake identity above big Eyed Barney's clutches. In that manner of things, Erebus was looking out for Nana. Again. Once bid to leave, Nana would trudge passed big Eyed Barney's groveling position without a second thought or glance. He was chaff after all, fodder, a footstep to be ascended to further glories. "You may call me Anna, big boss! I will take my leave now." she would say and then wade through the bloodied floor. It was a play on words that she deeply enjoyed. Anna was merely her real name but mixed around. She secretly smiled to herself as she stepped on top of broken coprses, not bothering to avoid them or go around them. Only Erebus would recognize the play on words.
