After dusting herself off when the roots let go, Helena looked over at the scene with the three people and frowned slightly. They all seemed to know each other which wasn't a problem but what were they all doing here? Clearly not the bounty but after the girl in need of her powers. She was pretty surprised by how in demand that Misty woman was and wondered if this was just going to cause problems of some kind for her getting what she needed. Huffing softly, she ran a hand through her hair before walking towards the three and giving them a bit of an awkward nod. Helena wasn't exactly the best at socializing. Probably the whole lone wolf thing. "So uh...interesting way to meet people I'd say..especially the person im after but...well she got away so i'll have to keep looking for her. Anyway, the name's Helena since you were asking but uh...not exactly sure what you would want with me considering your business," she said with a grin at Ayu and Bo noticing the little bit of chemistry between the two.
 
Fully rested up Misty opened the hatch and walked out. "So this bounty how much is on me?" She said while she walked towards the group of 3 and away from the wolf.
 
Upon the woman's arrival, Helena frowned slightly before turning slightly to face her, arms crossed. "All you need to know about the bounty is that is more than I need at the moment..youre the target and I need this money..I don't understand why someone has it out for you but I'm just here doing my job...maybe under different circumstances this wouldn't be the case but your bounty is high and if I don't take it somebody else will either way."
 
Bo looked sternly in Helena's direction. "I need her for the time being so I'm afraid you can't follow through on your plans." Bo completely turned from Ayu and faced Helena. "We can compensate for the lost bounty." Bo turned his face away from Kid and spit out the words as fast as he could. "If I cut Kid's comic book budget." Kid's comic book burned in his hands. "Your kidding? Right Master?" Bo shook his head peeking one eye open. "If this goez to waste... I will have someone's head."
 
"No need to worry about his comic book budget, I have plenty of money I'll give her what I'm worth it'll be quick and easy and no losing of any comic books" Misty said as she took out a small satchel and opened it "So how much shall I pay you?"
 
The woman considered the proposition for a moment, her white tail flicking about, before she gave a slight nod. "As long as I get the money I need, fine... guess it's the deal we got to make if you really need this woman alive." Running a hand through her hair, Helena sighed softly and shook her head a bit before facing the group again. "Anyway...I guess that's the end of my business here unless my services are needed...I'd rather not stay here if that woman is still considering the idea of killing me at the moment.," she said with a dry chuckle.
 
Ayu stood there listening to what the others had to say and after a moment, she figured out why this other girl was after the girl who had killed the monster too. She was about to offer some of her money to make up for the bounty the girl would have been paid if she had killed the one Bo and Kid were after, but she beat her to it, and things settled down rather quickly. "Well... It's up to you." Ayu told the wolf-like girl, glancing at the other girl, it seemed she was a good candidate for a queen that those spirits in the astral planes wanted, but at the same time... She still wasn't too sure what would happen once a queen had been established. Turning towards Bo, she repeated her question "Those spirits in the Astral Planes, do you know why they want a queen?" she asked, knowing this last little mystery would need to be resolved soon enough.
 
Bo rubbed his chin and pondered the question, Kid mimicking him. "Something about me..." Kid cleared his throat and finished Bo's thought. "They want a Queen because they believe Bo is too reckless as King. They hope by matching him up with someone he'll be too busy to screw up... like last time." Both of their faces cringed and filled with guilt. "It wasn't my fault. How was I supposed to know the guy was still alive." Kid ignored Bo and continued on with the explanation. "Right. So anyways Bo has been slacking lately maintaining which spirits go in and which are free. He's been letting killers and beasts loose. And Now we have the more "democratic" ghosts nagging us to stop the barbarians as they called them." Bo opened a portal mirror showing six undead men in robes, some were skeletons, others mummies, and even the egyptian goddess who wasn't a goddess, her name was Pyhrra. "Pyhrra, I need you to use this mirror to show the events on the initial day of retaliation. " She nodded. The portal began to show a ripple effect. Once the effect cleared a bar full of people was depicted. A sudden doir flew opened no one walking behind it. Then the entry doir swung open three times never closing fully each time. From there it got ugly people were being thrown everywhere, used as shields, bats, and not a single one was spared. After the chaos calmed down one of the people's arm came clean off, It was used to write a message in ancient demon transcript. "We and the Astral Council have done all we can to decipher the message and so far came up with "Grant us our Queen.". This is where our theory of the Queen issue originated. Dismissed!" The portal behind him closed and he looked up to the girls. "Do you all understand what is at risk now?"
 
Ayu opened her mouth to speak, but closed it abruptly, her face turning a little red as she realized what she had been about to say would imply. She wouldn't mind playing the role of the queen of Bo's realm, it was certainly better than living in the arctic and escorting the few people who actually wanted to travel to that forsaken place. However she knew if she didn't say something soon, that other girl, the one who seemed to be adept with controlling plants might become their next queen, and she did say she wasn't so good with working with others... With a sigh and her face flushing ever more red she nodded showing she understood the situation and spoke "If all else fails... I don't mind being their queen, if that's what it takes to fix this mess, I'll do it." she said quickly forcing herself not to stutter too much.
 
"It does seem like this Queen business is pretty important...still just giving them what they want like that puts you in a compromising position because itll just give them an inch where they'll ask for more. I wouldn't know if you are a reckless king or not but even if youre matched up with a Queen," she said with a glance in Ayu's direction, "It's no guarantee that a Queen is all they want. What if they just cause more trouble? Make your Queen more...well cooperative for their sakes? It's probably a good idea to just look for alternatives at least and I think with Ms Plant Magic over there you'll have a good chance of looking for those alternatives...I normally dislike getting involved in these diplomatic but with this much at risk, least I can do is give my opinion. Although, if you do end up going with the Queen idea, you have a willing candidate." Helena glanced back in Ayu's direction with a light grin at her nervous disposition concerning the whole Queen idea.
 
Bo leaned over to Kid staring at Misty. Kid nodded, three seconds later Kid was sheathing his spear and Misty plummeted to the ground. A portal opened and Kid bowed dragging Misty into the Astral Realm home of Bo. Bo turned to both Ayu and Helena. Rubbing his chin he began expressing his concerns. "You see I fear that isn't what the message said, What if we interpreted it wrong? Maybe it's a warning? I dunno we can't read it. No one can!" Bo sat with his hands covering his face. He opened his eyes and spread his fingers. "Wait Ayu! When was the last you heard from Raven?"
 
Ayu looked rather concerned when Bo expressed his fears; it definitely would be an dastardly mistake if they had misinterpreted that messaged... Making the already dangerous spirits who had overtaken the Astral Planes madder than they already were wouldn't be such a good thing. When he mentioned Raven however, she recalled that Raven seemed to be the most likely person to be able to read the demon language... It was a good enough hope to go on, at least then they'd be sure that they're doing the right thing. "Hmm..." Ayu looked to be in thought for a moment trying to recall what job Raven had said she was looking into when they had graduated, and after a moment her face lit up and spoke. "She said she was looking into becoming a teacher after graduation I think... Only question is where she would be though..." She said looking towards Bo with an inquisitive look on her face.
 
Helena's ears perked in interest at the name as she looked at the group and spoke. "You said Raven right? I do believe back home I've heard of a Raven, someone who was fluent in studying the languages of demons. I don't know her personally of course but I have heard of her. From what I understand she lives in a town that's not very populated, real isolated but she comes into my town every once in awhile for research and such. Maybe she'll be there," Helena offered with a light shrug.
 
Bo quickly clapped his hands together and pointed them at Helena, his eyes showing different magic circle designs. "Take me there A.S.A.P. For now if you wish to help, Come with me. I will fill you in this much, if you come there is no turning back. Memories employers, recent friends, employees, clients, everyone that has come into contact with you will be wiped. With certain exceptions..." Bo looked at Ayu then glanced at his arm looking over to Helena. A bandage covered his forearm, but it couldn't have been from the mechanized arm experiment that was conducted on his entire left arm. But, on the day of the Astral mission Bo had a strange tattoo on his right forearm as well as Kid. Bo shook his head. A portal slowly opened behind Bo. "I need your help lives are at risk... once again."
 
Helena had taken a glance at Bo's arm for a moment with a slight frown forming on her lips before she looked away and sighed softly. "Look, I don't normally like getting involved in affairs like this...I'm a bounty hunter with a curse...not some savior of lives...Besides I know so little about any of you..I'll take you to where you need to go and all but I can't guarantee that I'll be sticking around for all of this..I thank you for helping me not get killed and all but joining on some escapade..it takes some convincing...I dunno but either way just follow me alright?" Shaking her head, the woman shifted quickly to take the shape of the white wolf that had appeared earlier before going through the portal first with the others following behind.
 
Bo pulled the Kitsune out of the portal. Sealing the entrance, still leaving the portal up he explained his actions. "Don't ever do that again... No one can enter the Astral Plane without cloth armor or a certain tattoo. Walking in with your curse form would've stolen it immediately causing you to be normal, doing it again would then kill you sending your soul to my plane. Unless, this is what you wish change back we will walk through the Astral Plane." Bo let go of her tail. He lifted the seal and began towards the entrance when a huge bag of money landed in front of him labeled "SOUL TAX". Bo clasped his hands and then turned back to Helena. Tears attempted to fall down his face, but his anger overpowered it. "Do you know that being a guardian of souls is a very stressful job... I bet not being able to pay your rent is also stressful... How did I know because every tenant in that Japan district just died. This is no longer diplomatic this is war on humans. I'm solving this if you really wish to stand by and die... I'm sure I'll talk to you later. Your navigation is no longer needed Raven lives in this district correct?" Bo left the bag of money and a hidden note in it is they tried to touch the bag would appear. The note would say: I see this is what the true way of a professional magic hunter is, in that case take the bag I don't need it. Here is the spell if you two ever do decide to join me, inscribe it on your forearm. Talk to you later.

Bo walked through the Japan gateway, and forgot to close the portal at the farm. He reached the other end of the gateway to see the bloody apartment building and a demon soul writing another message with a severed arm. His eyes allowed him to see his "Free Spirits", but he's never seen other spirits like the "Demon Spirits" Then this message is against the Astrals. He looked around for Raven's study hall. When he found and abandoned building with the same name the tenant spirit gave him he realized it was a while ago he met Raven here. Bo kicked the door down and found some transcriptions to "Snake's Canyon Lake". "What is she doing in that demon infested... Right, I better move." Bo transformed into a giant blue and black nine-tailed fox and ran to Raven's location. When he reached the door he transformed back to his human form and knocked on the door.
 
After careful consideration of Bo's words and the realization of all of Japan's tenants being killed so senselessly, the kitsune woman thought that..maybe the man did have a good reason for his actions. He had stopped her from going through the portal and risking her life and powers after all...maybe it would be best to assist in this fight. To fight and to find the solution needed to end all this. She hoped this would be the right choice after all. Picking the bag up and reading the note and spell within, Helena inscribed the spell on her arm and with a firm and determined nod of her head, decided that she would proceed forward with this. There wasn't much choice...if she did not help then their would be one less to help save these lives...

Raven heard a knock on her door. 'Who could that be?' She put the book that she was reading in some ancient demon text down finding something to pause her place. 'There that will do.' She got up and went to the door. Then she opened it surprised to see Bo standing there. "Hello long time no see. How have you been Bo?"

Ayu nodded slowly, she understood the weight of the situation, and she wasn't about to stand by to watch... She was gonna help, just like old times, so she picked up the bag of money listening to Bo's message with a smile before she inscribed the spell into her arm as well, just like she was instructed. The kitsune had already entered the portal before her, and she followed behind closely. There wasn't a chance she was going to stand there and watch while lives were at risk to do that. "There's no way I'm leaving you two to fend for yourselves... I'm coming." She thought as she stepped through the portal wondering what lay beyond.
 
Helena glanced back to see Ayu stepping through the portal and gave the woman a nod before walking forward to follow after Bo. "I have to admit, you and your friends have quite an important mission ahead of you...and from what I can tell you've have others before that were very much like this where lives were at risk. But I'd guess that's just an occupational hazard," she said with a chuckle as they continued forward.
