The curse of Samhain has transformed what used to be a factory within the city into a gigantic prison where the citizens of the once-peaceful Creamland are kept locked up and tortured. The bars are rusted but strong, the walls stained in blood, and there is no light but the auburn beams that weakly stream through the grimy windows. Hundreds of innocent navis are crammed into the too-small space with little hope of escape. The entire prison is staffed with dozens of Dark Dimension soldiers serving as guards. Some of the prisoners have escaped thanks to an attacker from before, but the prison has been fortified again and better prepared for outside threats. There exist no threats once one ends up captured within the prison.
Special Role-Play Information: Those captured as prisoners within the Dark Colony lose all strength and abilities here, rendering them powerless and incapable of escape.

Wave entered the area from the Pride Wall... it seemed he had beaten everyone else here, somehow.
The place seemed a little creepy, so Wave kept quite as he 'snuck' inside. He hadn't noticed the prisoners yet, as he had just stepped in to the building, but out of some sense of stupidity, he mustered up the courage to yell inside, as he stood at the front door.
" ... A-any body hooomme?"
Yeah... Not smart. But atleast he'd have a chance to high-tail it back to the group if something stronger than himself made its presence known. After all, he'd rather know what he'd be up against, if anything, than face his fear of the unknown by searching inside.

Disturbed by the loud noise caused by Finale's explosion, as well as Wave's call, a group of four three-horned demon guards emerged from the darkness, shrieking and leaping at the boy with their sharp claws extended. Despite that, this was the least of the worries...
Outside, Nightwind silently sailed down, landing behind the building and making use of a hidden entrance in the rear. He made his way between the rows of caged prisoners - all unconscious from a dark spell - and turned a corner, coming to the entrance. He smiled darkly as he watched the demons leap into action, merely observing for now.

Hearing no response at first, Wave took a step inside for a better look around, as he knocked on the open door an ignorantly yelled again.
" Trick or treeaa--- Whoooaaa!!!"
Caught off guard entirely, the first demon collided with Wave and was sent tumbling out of the building. Wave didn't get an accurate count of how many had just pounced him, but he knew there were several. One-on-one, he felt pretty confident against these things, but four on one was a whole different ball game. Wave kicked the first one off, only to be pinned down by the next.
Before he had the chance to knock that one off as well, a second piled on top of the first, and then all four ended up dog piling the poor boy, each of them somehow managing to get a hit in on him. He dropped his weapon back at the door, so it wouldn't do him much good now.
" R-Rain! ... Release me!!"
At his command, the rain begin to drizzle just slightly. It focused solely on the spot Wave and the demons were piled, and fell no where else. Within seconds, the light sprinkle became a torrential down pour until a massive block of water -- outweighing the five bodies combined -- fell from the sky and collided with the group.
" Wind! Detach me!!"
Using the Elemental Ability Finale had given Wave earlier, and strong gust of wind pounded the group shortly after the water fell, separating the 5 beings like a bowling ball to a set of pins. Elemental control had its advantages... but now was no time to gloat in his apparent success. Wave was outmatched and outnumbered, and there was only one thing to do...
In a mad dash, Wave practically flew into the building, slammed the door shut behind him and bolted it down with anything he could find. Not at all noticing Nightwind yet, he slumped down against the door to sit on his butt and catch his breath.
" Weell.... That could've gone worse."
Not having Warrior around to protect him was risky... But if that's what it took to get Warrior back Wave thought it was worth it...

Dear. Fricking. Mother. This is going to go horribly, Finale thought, as he saw what he was up against. 4 demons and Wave locking him out. Wonderful.
"Well, no use fighting what I don't have to. . . Gahh, that hurts."
And it really hurt. Using his mask was a horrible idea. It basically put him back at a spastic V1.
"Dig a deeper hole for yourself Finale. Always gotta help the lower Vs out. . ."
He looked toward the demons with a look that was a cross between 'I hate you' and 'Don't hurt me!'. Today was going wonderfully.
Finale had decided that his best course of action was to back away slowly. This ended with him tripping over a few bones, and ending up lying on the ground next to another pile of bones. He decided that he'd just give up. No use fighting when you are bound to lose. He closed his eyes. Death would come soon.

The demons had assumed that the blue boy had caused the loud explosion, and were confused upon seeing this other, strange, decayed-looking being on the outside. Two of the demons went back to the door and began clawing at it mercilessly, trying and so far failing to get back inside.
The other two turned to Finale. One of them, standing closer, spoke - its words strained, its language skills obviously underdeveloped, and its voice high and shrill. "What side? Tell now. Fight with us - against us? Speak!" It held out a claw menacingly.
Inside, the situation was even worse. Nightwind walked over to the small navi, his energy tail flowing in an invisible wind. It expanded and engulfed the unsuspecting youth, the dark energy serving to effectively immobilize him. It wasn't paralysis, exactly - it was more like being submerged in a pool of some cold, thick, disgusting sludge, too viscous to move through. The frigid darkness stung like frostbite all over his body.
"I see you're resourceful... but weak, of course. Far too weak to stand up to me. You know that, don't you?" Nightwind stood still, waiting for some kind of response, his mane flickering like a dark flame.

Wave shivered at the over-powering force of the navi. Well, it seemed as if Wave was right. Things could have gone worse. As he stood there, unable and unwilling to move, he somehow fought the fear that was beginning to entice him. A strange feeling of warmth lit inside of his body, a spark of Faith rose up in him as he stood to his feet, albeit slowly.
" Y-yeah? So w-what?"
The clattering of his teeth was affecting his speech, and his shivering jaw slightly hindered his words. He felt his muscles tighten all over in response to the freezing substance, and somehow he was able to speak through it loudly enough for his voice to be heard.
" I'm n-not here for y-you or anyo-one else...."
He heard the demons outside, trying to get in. It sounded like there were less of them than before, but he remembered seeing four before he came inside. Demons don't just disappear, either, so there wasn't a very likely chance that any fewer would be out there, if he did open the door.
" I'm here... T-to find W-Warrior... A-and bring him b-back..."
That was about all that needed to be said. Wave would normally just sit there in fear, in the presence of one that much stronger than him. Where he mustered up the courage to talk back is uncertain, but he couldn't let any demons stop him from accomplishing what he had come to do. And whether or not the other mysterious navi would help him or hinder him wasn't too much of a concern -- but Wave communicated pretty thoroughly (or atleast as thoroughly as he could) that neither of them were any real threat to each other's reasons for being there.
Wave was here to find and 'rescue' Warrior. The other Navi was clearly here for whatever reasons Wave wasn't sure of, but he wasn't here so much to hinder those plans, so long as he got what he came for -- Warrior.
He continued to stand there, still shaking and shivering, while waiting for the navi to respond, if he would at all. He kept an eye on the door as well, so that the demons wouldn't catch him off guard if they managed to break through.

Finale smiled at the demon. He was still laying on the ground eyes closed. There was nothing more he could say. "No side." Finale decided he'd put this so the demon could understand him. In other words, slowly and painfully. "No side. I just want to. . ." Finale's body locked up. He suddenly felt extreme pain. And his eyes shot open. Something was odd. This pain was unlike any other pain he had felt. It was a rush of individual pain covering his body. It felt like a collaboration of many individual evils trying to kill him inside. Finale looked to his right. A mask was mixed in with bones and rubbish.. His mask!He grabbed it and put it on his face. A voice came into his head. "ION'S DEAD." It was disturbing to say the least. Finale stood up, but immediately fell back down onto his knees. He saw The Truth. "What just happened-" Suddenly, Someone was standing over him, and he was lying down again. The figure over him was adorned with bla ck armor, and a strange navi logo that looked like a clock.
"ALL I WANT. IS. TO. DIE!"
The figure ripped through the demon. Finale tried to move. It was like he was fixed there, unable to move. The clock-logoed navi let out another shriek in it's sudden and disturbing voice.
"DIE!" "DIE!" "DIE!DIE!DIE!DIE!DIE!DIE!DIE!DIE!DIE!DIE!DIE!DIE!DIE!DIE!DIE!" The black-armored navi moved through the second demon. Finale thought the armored navi was odd an erratic. He didn't manage to catch it's face, but somehow it was gone as sudden as it appeared. Finale was unpinned to the ground, but decided it was probably safer to stay still.
Inside the building was where the strange navi really was. Somehow standing in between Wave and Nightwind, the strange black-armored navi's face was shrouded in an ethereal darkness.
"IF YOU HURT THIS KID. I. WILL. KILL. YOUR. SOUL!"

The darkness around Wave deepened and the energy became unbearably heavy, forcing him onto the ground and beginning to crush him. "I'm not just a soldier, you know. I'm also a bit of a spy. I was flying over you as you gathered on the beach. I saw and heard what happened. And more importantly, I know where Warrior is. I can even take you to him. Of course, he is in my service now, and I cannot allow you to see him until you are too. It's simple, really. You can join him on the winning side and be with him again, or I can delete you and you'll never reach him. Looking at it logically, the answer is obvious."
Just then a dark shadow moved in, screaming something about killing his soul if he hurt the boy. How... interesting. And unwanted. With a massive flap of his powerful wings, Nightwind unleashed a gust of evil energy that hurtled toward the black thing. It looked like a shadow moving through the air, translucent but dark and with nothing to cast it. The wind blew over Wave and pushed the thing far back, ripping it to shreds as shards of blackness formed within the air, propelled by the wind like razor-sharp missiles. The tattered remains of whatever it was flowed back into the body outside, and the two uninjured demons, recognizing it, leapt on Finale and ripped him apart, hoisting his limbs into the air and shrieking in victory until his data completely destabilized.
FINALE.EXE DELETED
Nightwind turned his attention back to Wave. He pulled in his tail closer, and the semi-solid energy cocooning Wave dragged him over to Nightwind's feet head-first, nearly crashing his nose into the horse's hard combat boots. "On my home planet we had a simple loyalty pledge - the same one I performed when I enlisted in its army, and the same I performed when I gave myself over to my Lord Samhain. I bowed before him and kissed his foot as a sign of respect and reverence, an acknowledgement of his superiority. I've taken care of the bowing for you. Now complete the pledge, or die alone without your precious friend."

Aluminum and Memory were walking down the path and reached the building. They saw a few demons outside the building, but Aluminum was feeling cocky and ignored them. Lightly pushing on the door, Aluminum found it somewhat rusted. Placing his hands firmly, he shoved the door open, slamming it into the wall. When the outside light flooded the room, he saw the one they called Wave and Nightwind.
Wave!" Aluminum called to him. He rushed up to him. What are you doing? Be careful around this guy."
Memory also came into the building, keeping an eye on the two demons left outside. Seeming like loafers, he doubted them to be real problems. Unfortunately, Yaiba escaped from Aluminum and raced outside. He started dueling as best he could with a demon.
Locked in a battle, Yaiba was fighting as hard as he could with the demon. With his special defensive prowess, he kept up the pace rather well. Now granted, he was starting to lose, but he kept a fighting spirit going.
Aluminum was completely oblivious to this while he kept his eyes on Wave and Nightwind. "Shouldn't you be with your master right about now? More importantly, what brought you here to this building?"
Aluminum broke his gaze to see the full of the room. Navis everywhere were imprisoned and KO'd. "What?! Ooh. you guys are really getting on my nerves." Aluminum then turned around to see his virus dueling outside with a demon. "Yaiba! NO!!" He blasted the demon with a light-powered energy, deleting it on the spot and saving Yaiba's life. That left one last demon.

Wave remained idle for a little while... biting his lip in deep though. He certainly had to find Warrior -- and if this navi could help him do that, why not join him? He just had to grab his friend and get out, no need to stay around for a huge fight. But.. what if...
" How do I... know you're not lying?"
Wave lifted his chin, trying to see Nightwind's face, as if he'd be able to test the Navi's honesty by looking into his eyes.
"How do I know... you're telling the truth?"
But Wave knew he couldn't be lying. He saw with his own eyes Warrior join this guy, back at the beach. No, he was certainly telling the truth. Perhaps this was just the next step he needed to take, in order to complete his mission here.
" Well... if you can take me to Warrior, then so be it. But... Do I have to kiss your foot?"
He wasn't really stuttering as much now, as his body was slowly adapting to the temperature of the cold stuff that coated his body.
" I know it's a sign of 'respect' from where you come from... But where I'm from, its... just...."
Wave paused a second, before finishing. He thought he'd heard something outside, but then continued when he assumed it was just those demons at the door again.
"... It's freaking gross!!!"
A second later, Aluminum came crashing through the door. Wave looked back, thinking it was the demons... slightly satisfied to see something different, but slightly uncomfortable considering the fact he'd have to choose sides again -- Either go with Nightwind to find Warrior, or stay behind to help Aluminum. The boy still didn't notice the other navi in the area.
He remained silent as he watched what would transpire next... which would ultimately determine which decision he made...

From the lower levels of the prison - the basement dungeons, designed to hold Creamland's most powerful warriors - two more demons came charging up a stairwell. They were both elites, six-horned warriors assigned the most vital of tasks. They each leaned forward, the rings formed on their heads by their horns glowing with a red energy. Two burning, fiery laser beams launched from their skulls aimed at Aluminum. Knowing these alone would merely injure and anger this clearly powerful adversary, Nightwind diverted much of his power from the tail holding Wave in place. A second, darker, more powerful extension of his tail shot out at Aluminum in conjunction with the demons' lasers, exerting dark, cold, crushing energy. The combined assault overwhelmed the heroic navi's admittedly formidable body. His last sensations were a terrible mix of searing heat and stinging cold, accompanied by the extreme pain of having his body and code compacted into a crushed, corrupted mess that soon failed to function and burst into nothingness.
ALUMINUM.EXE DELETED
The demons turned to launch themselves at Memory, but Nightwind used his extended tail to signal them, telling them to stop. Perhaps this could be a two-for-one deal. "You have yet to show any... terribly overt hostility. I'll give you a chance to join the boy in surrendering and pledging your allegiance to the Dark Dimension and its glorious Lord Samhain. Otherwise, your deletion will be swift and uneventful."
He looked down to the boy at his feet. "As for you... if you cannot even obey this simple command, what use will you be to me as a loyal servant?"

With that dark energy finally focused on something other than Wave, he gave a sigh of relief and scratched his eye. An itch had been irritating for a while. The moment of consolation was quickly cut off by Nightwind's response, though. Wave sat there for a second, before leaning forward while grunting and murmering to himself.
" Warrior... I swear you owe me soo much for this..."
Wave tilted his head toward the foot, with quite an unpleasant expression about his face.
" ... It stinks."
Wave glanced up, but he knew Nightwind wouldn't take that for an answer. He leaned a little bit more, to atleast signify his obedience... albeit a whiney act of obedience at that. He puckered his lips while squinting his nose, still about ten inches away from the foot, and approaching it oh so slowly. At a snail pace, he'd move forward just a little bit, then pull his head back, then lean in just a little more, and jerk back again.
He was actually getting closer... but very, very slowly. When his lips were a little under an inch away from the boot, he took a deep breath in, over-exaggerating the action just to prolong his inevitable surrender, then began moving forward even slower. At this point, it seemed more like he was pointing with his chin at the foot than his lips. But alas, when his mouth was just millimeters away, Wave sealed the deal and leaned in, barely scrapping the edge of his lips to Nightwind's boot, and then yanked his head back immediately, gagging quite over-dramatically.
" Ack!! Glhoaa!! Inlck!"
He continued for a few minutes, and even went so far as to licking the dirt on the ground, trying to 'wipe the taste off'... He held both hands at his neck, still standing on his knees, and took in several deep breathes before spitting on the ground behind him, then wiping his face as he stood to his feet. The little tantrum fit he had just illustrated was almost humorous, but quite an embarrassing scene to watch. Kids these days.
"... "
Not a word, but a deep, agitated breath, as if he were communicating to Nightwind with his body language, 'happy now'. Wave crossed his arms and sat cross-legged by his new 'master', waiting for Memory to either do the same, or regrettably watch his demise. He mumbled to himself immature complaints as he sat idly by.
" Never had to kiss Warrior's feet... Feint's foot never stunk that bad... Faith atleast washed her feet... I had to kiss a foot before I ever even kissed a girl... That foots probably gotten more girl-kisses than I have... My foots never been kissed... I don't make people kiss my feet... My feet don't stink..."
And on and on he went... mumbling softly enough not to be fully understood, but his voice could slightly be heard. It wasn't too bothersome... for the first few minutes...

Nightwind rolled his eyes. "Good enough, I suppose. Now quiet down before I change my mind." Bored, the demons had slaughtered Aluminum's pet virus in the background. Nightwind looked to Memory once more. "Well? What will it be?"

Memory was appalled. The demons that were unleashed were almost as strong as him. Then they attacked Aluminum- a formidable foe. Unfortunately he was gone when Nightwind destroyed him. Soon after, not quite as surprising, Yaiba was deleted.
Now the proposal came. Disgustedly, Memory addressed Wave.
"It is a shame to see the young so quickly swayed to evil. I apologize for this."
Memory's wheel started turning. Then, the speed quickly grew to a nice pace. Extending his arm, he sent Wave an electrocution. Not strong enough to delete him, but the young boy wouldn't be waking up anytime soon. Memory couldn't bring himself to delete the young one- not yet, anyway. With his wheel still spinning, Memory turned to Nightwind.
"Well. I'm sure you can see, with that display, what my response is. I'd rather die than serve the likes of you!"
Memory knew his chances of survival were slim to none, but he still kept up the fight. His wheel spinning crazily, the floor underneath them began to churn and sway. Soon, everyone was standing in a pool of water. Memory proceeded to attack Nightwind with jolts of electricity.
