Dark Syo walked along the forest outside of Magnolia with his equipment on his back. He was running out of light and needed to set up camp. Finding a clearing in the forest, he began setting up a tent and used the nature around him to make some makeshift seats around what he was going to make a fire pit as he placed stones in a circle with dried twigs around it. With a tent large enough for two and all his stuff stored in it, and a fire pit ready, Dark Syo sighed with an irritated look on his face. His other self didn't grab any food, so he had to waste time hunting a wild animal for his meal. While cooking some rabbits on the fire having skinned them, Dark Syo stoked the fire as night settled in. With seven rabbits cooked, he started eating the first off the stick he had impaled it on. It was hot, but it didn't matter. He was a fire mage. He was use to the heat. Though he was having trouble because of that damned disease he had to find a cure for. He really needed to find some clues on how to fix it.

There was a dark energy around here. Reika could sense it. She was there to capture Syana, that traitor's bitch, but that plan was to take place a little in the future, and Reika wanted to have some fun. This dark energy sparked her interest. This was Magnolia Town, or at least close to it. This was generally a happy town, and not one that harbored such hate and evil. Reika grinned. This was going to be interesting.
"Looks like you have a bountiful feast here." Reika stepped out of the blackness of the forest. The light from the fire flickered across her face, making her visible to the skinny boy in front of her. One eye was completely cast in shadows. The other's pupil was way too small for the amount of light shown. It gave her a kind of crazy look. She held her hands out, showing that she had no weapons. "As you can see, I have not come with the intention of harming you. But if you insist on fighting, I will have no choice but to crush you like the puny human you are. So, let's get along, ok~?" She giggled.

By instinct, Syo could tell something or someone was approaching. Or rather, he had the feeling that a predator was approaching him. So what did he do? Nothing. At this point, he welcomed any predator to take a bite out of him, and he would simply bite back. And consume it, just like he was doing to these rabbits. When the person turned out to be a female human shape, he went back to consuming his meal without so much as a hint of care on his face. With the words spoken to him, the most he did was give recognition by directing his eyes at her, his jaw still moving as he ground the rabbit meat between his teeth.
"Harm or not, I'll bite anything that bites me, and eat it if I can. After all, with this disease, everything I touch and eat is tainted, making it mine exclusively."
Saying so, Dark Syo revealed an evil grin as his heterochromatic eyes gazed at the girl, not even caring to analyze how strong she would be. He didn't care. The only thing that interested him was the fact he could feel darkness swirling around the one his eyes were fixed on.
"Madness clings to you. A pleasant sight after years of one-sidedly gazing at those sickening displays of affection and positive mental fortitude."
Saying so, Dark Syo took another large bite out of his food and began chewing again without regards to his manners or how he spoke. Even his face seemed to give out a sense of not giving a single flip. All that radiated from him was madness and the desire for blood. Though for himself, he still had to find that cure to the cursed disease he was carrying. Was no fun if you couldn't roast your victims alive and maybe devour them later.
OOC: Somehow, Dark Syo became a cannibal while I typed this up...

"Deadly Crows." Reika cut right to the subject, her signature smile never wavering on her face. She held her hands behind her back an pranced around the fire, taking a good look at Syo. She studied his appearance, his stature, how he held himself. She was greatly amused by his different colored eyes. In a way, she saw herself in him. He had an anomaly, like her. She was albino. His eyes had heterochromia. They were different in a similar way. She stopped prancing when she was directly across from.
"Madness clings to me?" Reika laughed, tilting her head back and holding her wrist to her mouth. "Boy, I am madness the incarnate. I exist in everyone, everywhere. I can be killed, but never truly erased. I live inside of everyone." she stopped laughing and snapped her fingers. A stool materialized just behind her, and she sat down on it. Her white dress flooded out around her. "I, too am sick of people not connecting with the madness inside of them. Everyone would benefit from it, don't you think?"

"Regardless whether they benefit from it or not, I'll just continue doing what I embody; Negative Emotions. Until the eventual day this personality disintegrates and the other me wakes up from the slumber he entered. Which I hope he never does."
Saying this, Dark Syo looked at the girl who sat down. Finishing off the first rabbit, he tossed the scraps, bones and stick and all, into the fire. Best to burn it. What fun in there was murdering if they were dying of disease? Picking up the next one, he was about to take a bite when he thought. "This body and its original mind is called Syo, but... Let's see... This me doesn't have a name. So, how good is your naming sense?"
Saying that, he took a bite of his rabbit as he gazed at the girl in white. "Gimme a proper name, at the least too, Girl of White." Munching his rabbit with a closed mouth, he simply stared at the girl for lack of anywhere else to look. He wasn't particularly looking at any part of her in specific, mainly just keeping his gaze in her direction you could say.

"Syo." Reika repeated the name, turning it over and over in her mind. She knew that name. The name resonated with her memories, She knew it, and yet why did the origin evade her? The young girl thought on it for a bit, watching the rabbit bones dry in the fire. The bits and pieces of remaining flesh faded to black, and more smoke rose to the sky. Ah, that was right. Syo. Syo was that Maddox's bitch's side boy.
Reika's grin never faded. "Ray." She said definitively. "But before you say 'man, that was so random', let me explain." she giggled, stretching out her hands together and then slowly bringing them apart in an arc fashion. A small screen projecting Reika's thoughts appeared in between her hands, revealing a miniature version of the fire. "You're eating over a fire, which is casting shadows across yourself." she said, and a chibi version of Syo appeared next to the fire, holding a stick with a piece of meat on it. "And, you kind of look like a rabbit!" On cue, rabbit ears appeared on Syo's head, along with a fuzzy bunny tail. The syo on screen looked loli. "So, your name is Usagi no Kurayami. And from that, I got Ray. You're. Welcome."
She giggled again, and put her hands down. The screen disappeared.

Listening and watching the things happening in front of him, 'Ray' simply shrugged his shoulders after being given a name. He didn't particularly care what he was called, as long as it had no relation to what his other self was called. Still, as he watched the screen of him eating, he couldn't help but smirk. Oh, how evil he looked both now and on the screen. He loved it. That feeling of a murky darkness that is swallowing the light around it. And his blue eye with its unnerving gleam made the perfect preference to his likes. Usagi No Kurayami. From the books he had read, there was one thing he came across.
"Reminds me of Caerbannog."
Saying so, he shrugged his shoulders again and returned to eating, finishing off his second rabbit and chucking it on the fire. "Tch. Because of this stupid curse, I have to prioritize finding a cure rather than hunting that two-timing air-headed thing and her cohort..." Saying this as a mutter under his breath, Ray put emphasis on classifying Syana as a thing. On top of being someone who could return his mental state to normal, her very existence infuriated him because of the inherited negative emotions from his other self. But because of the disease, he was left with no choice but to hunt her down another day. And having seen her capabilities thus far, he knew he was getting behind.
"Two on one, and they are stronger than I am, especially with this damn delay. Tch." Clicking his tongue again, he lamented anything he could. The disease which inhibited his ability to get stronger. The duo that were stronger than he was and would continue to get stronger. The inferiority complex he had with everything and everyone around him. But given the mass of darkness in front of him, he felt it would be alright to be underneath this one. If only in power. There were some things Ray wouldn't stand for, after all. He wanted his freedom.

"Reminds me of Caerbannog."The boy said. Reika had no idea that Ray was so educated. He looked like he had been living in a ditch all his life. Nonetheless, Reika giggled at his expertise. It was true that he resembled the Killer Rabbit, only that he did not look so innocent or as small, white, and defenseless. He had a sort of darkness to him. Something that warned others of his strength and his anger. Something that kept animals, even the stronger ones, hidden in the forest.
"Tch. Because of this stupid curse, I have to prioritize finding a cure rather than hunting that two-timing air-headed thing and her cohort..." The white mage perked up at the sound of curse. This boy was infected with the Deadly Crows Virus. Reika grinned. That meant that he truly was defenseless, without magic to help him. But she had not come there to harm him. "Two on one, and they are stronger than I am, especially with this damn delay. Tch." Instead of acting ignorant, Reika began to laugh rather loudly.
"So the side bitch is angry he's a side bitch?" Reika laughed loudly, hovering her hand just in front of her mouth. "And here I was, thinking that you were either unaware or did not care!" She continued to laugh,throwing back her head and pressing her hands to her stomach, laughing so hard that she actually felt pain in her abdominal region.
And suddenly and without warning, the laughing stopped, and an eerie silence filled in between the two. No animals or even bugs sounded around them with sound, scared both by the virus and the madwoman. There was a kind of thickness in the air, like the gas had suddenly changed forms and was now heavier on those in it. A devilish smile on Reika's face.
"I'm going to take care of her." She said, though she was going to do quite the opposite. She let that sink in for a bit. Ray should have known how strong she was, now that she had materialized a bunch of random things out of thin air.
"Ah-Ah-Ah~" She clicked, "But there's a catch. When I get your girl, you must join Phantom Cloak."

"Found out just before coming here. Syo saw her smooching another guy. Thanks to that, I finally dominate the mind. Still, I've inherited those negative emotions, so I'm cursed to follow that guy's whims even after I've taken control." Saying this begrudgingly, Ray continued to eat his last rabbit. He was a bit of a glutton, only because he needed the energy to continue to get stronger. Listening to the girl in white continue talking, Ray had his interest piqued when he heard she was going to 'take care of her'. That surely was to his advantage.
"A catch... Then I also have my own conditions. You pull this off and torture her, break her mind for me, to the point she never comes back. I'll join this Phantom Cloak of yours, but I will NOT be bossed around. I'm finally free, and I won't let this freedom be taken from me." Saying as such, he stopped eating as he thought about his condition. So far, if his condition was agreed upon, then he may as well not be in the guild. Taking the last bit of rabbit meat, he chucked the last of the bones on the fire.
"However, should you approach me directly, then I'll follow your orders, and only yours from your own mouth. You're the only one I will recognize, and I will cut down any others who try to act superior to me. Deal?" Just like that, Ray looked over to his tent, prepared to get some rest so he could move on and find a cure the next day.

"Oh dear, I regretfully inform you that they have probably done more then just kiss~ mhumm~?" She hummed and then broke into another giggle. "I knew that Maddox boy. He used to be in Phantom Cloak, before he went rouge. He had always had his way with females, you catch my meaning."
Reika winked, lying through her teeth. She hoped to agitate the boy, even if it was just by a little. Her attempt was probably unsuccessful, though, as Ray admitted that he did not care for the girl. Anything Reika could use to get under his skin was a step towards making him loyal to her, though, so she was just testing her grounds.
"I'll make sure to break her will, and as a bonus, I'll mutilate that Maddox boy, too." Reika grinned. This was perfect. This entire set up was perfect! She got to have fun with a girl, enact rules over a lost Phantom Cloak member, and even gained a member! A brutal laugh emitted from her throat, far different from the light giggle she had let out earlier. It was deeper, and full of malice. Yes. This plan was perfect. Now she only had to direct this boy about Phantom Cloak.
"You misunderstand." She stretched out her hand in front of him with her palm facing upwards. A mini-holigraphic of the guild mansion flickered above her palm. It was dark and ominous and big and glorious all at the same time. It swiveled around just inches above her palm.
"Phantom Cloak is all about freedom. The only time I would call upon you is if the guild needed defending. You are free to do as you wish, as long as you don't ally with those light-guilded dogs." she giggled. "But I don't think that'll be a problem. All you need now is a guild stamp. Where would you like it?" She outstretched her other hand, materializing a small stamp machine. "You are free to place it wherever you wish."

Ray showed a devilish grin knowing the other one of the two timing pair would also see hell. But still it irritated him that he could not do it himself. Standing up now, he took a glance to the one in white as he heard her giggling. Full of malice, making a pleasant sound to his ears. After all the positive feelings he was deprived of, he fed himself on darker emotions which had now become somewhat like sustenance for his mind. In turn, his own face distorted in a somewhat pleased and wicked expression as he listened.
Coming to a halt since he was on his way to his tent, he returned to eye level with Reika as she spoke about what Phantom Cloak was. And then brought out the guild stamp. Being told he could choose where it went, he thought for a moment before an evil smirk plastered across his face from ear to ear. Snatching the stamp, he used his free hand to open up right, blue eye more and dug his fingers into his eye socket to pop out the eye more. When it was out enough, he used the stamp to imprint the logo into his eye before closing it and placing a hand over it until it settled, handing back the stamp.
"There is a lacrima shard embedded in this eye with part of my self trapped in it. Like this, as long as I am Ray, this mark will permanently be in my sight and the sight of others."
Saying so, he moved his hand away and kept the eyelid closed as blood trickled down. This was his way of showing his loyalty to the dark guild which could guarantee his freedom to carry out his own will.

Reika began to laugh as he grabbed his eye, a sickening, incredibly loud laugh. It began as just as a chuckle, but then grew to an absurd volume. She drew it out, before pressing her hand to her stomach and keeling over. She rolled around on the ground, kicking her legs around from side to side.
When she was done, she stood up. "I'm impressed. You will be most useful." She winked, and with a snap of her fingers, the stamp disappeared from his hands. "Let us meet again. You are most interesting. Please do take care of yourself. It would be a shame if you were to lose to this... passing plague." Another giggle.
"I will meet you after you are done with tending to your body." She smiled. "There is no need to contact me. I will know." She did a little twirl, keeping her hands behind her back and dancing around. If Reika felt anything like happiness, this is what she was feeling. When she was a few feet away, she turned back and grinned. "Farewell, Ray." She continued, visible until the thickness of the forest consumed her.
