After about an hour with no activity on the door, DeviWong Devi announces, "I believe we can recreate the weapons. Possibly better than the original daggers."

SebastianNemo Nemo says, "Yes, but we have a very limited amount of ColdSteel Cold Steel. But we should be able to craft 9 weapons."

Omi says, "And the prophesy is fulfilled. AshamAshari Asham would be pleased."

TomoLuKang Tomo nods, "So we need nine volunteers."

RenjiYoritomo Renji steps forward, "I will go." smiling to no one in particular.

"As will I" says Chen.

Alaistar Rolo hands Sacha back to Winter. And doing his best to look together and brave says, "I would like staff, if it's possible"

ZinRaishin Zin nods and says, "I will go as well".

SebastianNemo Nemo shakes his head. "You can’t ZinRaishin Zin. The process needs blood to work, you as a shadow have none."

TomoLuKang Tomo says, "Don’t worry, there will be much for the rest of us to do." ZinRaishin Zin nods.

SebastianNemo Nemo says, "I must go, I think I’m the only one who can complete the ritual, but I will need help."

DeviWong Devi says, "I will go to help".

"As will I" says Raven.

"Where the Guild goes, I will go to be their sword." VirgilBelmont Virgil says, stepping forward.

"And I will go...for WuWong Wu." Winter says.

Alaistar Rolo responds when Winter speaks up

Alaistar Rolo says, “No- there must be another. She is too young.”

Winter says, "I am not a child Alaistar Rolo. I make my own path. We are precious short on volunteers.

"I would go as well" Miyen Mi-yen says, "If I could be of help".

SebastianNemo Nemo steps in again. "You are brave LifeSpark Life Spark. But you must be elsewhere.” She nods.

TomoLuKang Tomo says, "I will take the last spot then."

With that they set together forging the weapons.

Alaistar Rolo speaks in a loud clear voice, “I must apologize to you all. I have led a life that has made it difficult to trust. And so I kept from you my true name. But the time for mistrust is over. As SebastianNemo Nemo has wisely stated what we are about to do will bind us forever. I am Alaistar. My wife . .. is Alexi.”

VirgilBelmont Virgil nods and bows to Alaistar, RenjiYoritomo Renji smiles at him. Chen bows slightly, and Winter hugs him. Miyen Mi-yen bows her head in a nod to him. Alaistar gives a bow to each in return

The weapons are crafted over the next 20 hours. During this time Omi sleeps and RenjiYoritomo Renji and VirgilBelmont Virgil take shifts doing the same. Miyen Mi-yen is awake the whole time, staying on watch and on guard. Alaistar Rolo would sleep with Sacha by his side. SebastianNemo Nemo works though the night, as does TomoLuKang Tomo, Raven DeviWong Devi and Chen, by taking the precious few remaining bits of ColdSteel Cold Steel while Winter drops the temperature down to near absolute zero. The ColdSteel Cold Steel liquefies and is molded. RenjiYoritomo Renji gets a wakazashi, Alaistar gets a staff, Chen gets a pentagram, VirgilBelmont Virgil a longsword, DeviWong Devi a sai, SebastianNemo Nemo a gauntlet, Winter gets a chain, Raven a ring, and TomoLuKang Tomo a shield. The mold is created with normal lead as the base, which is covered with carefully placed runes placed by SebastianNemo Nemo, DeviWong Devi, and Raven.

While the ColdSteel Cold Steel is still liquid, SebastianNemo Nemo goes to Miyen Mi-yen, "The notes here are vague, they call for the blood of the life opposite the darkness. It’s an old translation, but I believe it means the blood of the LifeSpark Life Spark. We know the LifeSpark Life Spark was here when the daggers were forged."

She nods. "What do you need me to do?"

“Bleed into the liquid metal, even a tiny bit would be enough.” answers SebastianNemo Nemo.

She nods again and reaches up to pull one of the two chopsticks out from her hair. She walks over to the vat of liquid ColdSteel Cold Steel. She pulls up the sleeve of her left arm and slashes down her arm towards her wrist, cutting into the vein with the pointed chopstick, holding it in the wound. She squeezes her fist and shoves in the chopstick, forces a few drops to spill. The blood doesn’t seem to want to flow out of her body, it hangs on but eventually drips out of her. As she moves the wound tries to seal it self up behind the chopsticks. Her face stays calm the whole time.

SebastianNemo Nemo says, "Now each volunteer must bleed into the metal. And speak their Full true name. One at a time please."
"Chen" Chen says simply and bleeds.

"[[RenjiYoritomo Renji Yoritomo" RenjiYoritomo Renji says, cutting his palm with his old wakazashi.

Alaistar takes a dagger out of his cloak from his left leg. "Alaistar" He drags the knife across his palm

"VirgilBelmont Virgil Belmont", "Sebastian SebastianNemo Nemo" "DeviWong Devi Wong" "Winter" "Raven" "TomoLuKang Tomo Lu Kang" they each take their turn.

SebastianNemo Nemo backs off and begins to chant, "Now focus your will on your item, as the ColdSteel Cold Steel warms. Invest a part of yourself in the item."

The ColdSteel Cold Steel cools and the weapons are done and solid, they are turned out of the molds and onto the table. While the weapons are still cooling each is fitted with gold rings somewhere on the handle 13 on each item. The rings have runes on the inside that burn like fire when they are applied to the ColdSteel Cold Steel.

SebastianNemo Nemo keeps everyone back. SebastianNemo Nemo says, "Ahem, now in theory, we can touch them, and we will be able to bring our souls into the shadow realm. But I’m not sure, one, how they work, two, if they work, and three, I feel we should be prepared to finish what we start as soon as we pick them up."

VirgilBelmont Virgil says, "Agreed."

DeviWong Devi says, "We do have an expert..." she turns to Hugh.

Hugh says, "The first touch is painful."

DeviWong Devi says, "Hopefully the preattunment we have done will prevent the worst of it, as well as us all only having one item."

Hugh nods. "You will see your soul for a moment, and one moment only. In my case, my soul was torn apart before my eyes by the energy."

SebastianNemo Nemo says, "If we have done this correctly, we will see our souls, and then we will pass them, they coming here, and us going to the shadow realm."

Hugh nods, "You can swap back by touching one of the rings."

DeviWong Devi nods, "They are physical representations of the 13 tethers that tie a human soul to its body."

TomoLuKang Tomo says, "In doing this you forever change how the tethers are arranged, I don’t believe we can ever undo this."

Hugh nods. "There is not much more to say."

Omi, Hugh, ZinRaishin Zin and NeruKazi Neru form up around Mi-yen. VirgilBelmont Virgil says, "And so let’s go over the plan once more before we change our lives forever."

Omi says, "The 5 of us, bring Miyen Mi-yen to the sealed chamber."

VirgilBelmont Virgil says, "We nine grab the weapons which bring us over to the shadow realm."

Raven says, "In the shadow realm the binding runes they have on the door will not hold us."

SebastianNemo Nemo says, "We cross over, and cross back, and undo the runes from the inside."

ZinRaishin Zin says, "Then we bring Miyen Mi-yen to the machine, hold off the wraiths in the light realm while..."

DeviWong Devi says, "We cross back into the shadow realm and bind the wraiths from the inside."

“Will our powers work in that realm?” asks Alaistar Rolo.

Hugh says, "I don’t know, I’m not...gifted..."

“ZinRaishin Zin?” asks Alaistar Rolo.

ZinRaishin Zin says, "When my soul was there I could access the darkness...It made me very powerful. However my particular gifts lend themselves to that."

SebastianNemo Nemo says. "Nothing to do but experiment!"

Alaistar Rolo responds, “Then there is nothing left.” Alaistar Rolo walks over to Sacha and kisses him on the forehead. He turns to ZinRaishin Zin and makes eye contact . . .and nods.

Miyen Mi-yen looks at the people around her, those not part of the nine, "And once you have bound the wraiths from the inside, what happens to the rest?" She motions towards NeruKazi Neru and Omi and the rest standing at her side.

Chen says, "If this works, there will be no more wraiths or hollows anywhere on earth, if this works we will bind their evil forever. If this works, we simply walk out over their corpses."

She nods. "Then let this work." she says coldly.

RenjiYoritomo Renji says, "And if it doesn’t, at least we all get to die together!" He snatches the wakazashi off the table. There is the tiniest moment of a flash where RenjiYoritomo Renji is not there, then RenjiYoritomo Renji appears again looking a bit shocked....with his colors totally inverted. Where he had black hair its white, his black parts of his Gi, is white, and so on. His skin however is a normal color. The inverted RenjiYoritomo S-Renji smiles his sheepish grin, and says, "Neat! Hello everyone, I’m RenjiYoritomo Renji’s Soul. heheh". Miyen Mi-yen nods to RenjiYoritomo S-Renji, with a flicker of a smile.

Alaistar Rolo steps to the table looks at his son and Winter. And then takes the staff.

RenjiYoritomo S-Renji looks like he’s listening to something, and says, "The wraiths can tell something’s up, RenjiYoritomo Renji can see them moving around we better get started."

Alaistar takes the staff after looking at his son and Winter then nodding generally

The others take their weapons as well. Chen S-Chen looks like a white wraith with no body. VirgilBelmont S-Virgil looks like himself, but covered with white armor like a classic fairytale knight. DeviWong S=Devi’s has two glowing wings on her back. SebastianNemo S-Nemo looks like himself but there is more fire in the back of his eyes, it’s hard to meet his gaze. Winter S-Winter’s white skin goes semi translucent, like it’s made of ice. Raven S-Raven looks like Raven but her hair is made of feathers. TomoLuKang S-Tomo looks like TomoLuKang Tomo but his beard is much longer.
Alaistar S-Alaistar looks sort of like himself, but bigger, like he was working out for years, his arms are wrapped in broken chains and his eyes glow softly green with an inner fire. His hair ripples as if it an unseen wind.

Omi nods when the last of them pick up their weapons. "It seems we will have more help on this side than we thought."

RenjiYoritomo S-Renji smiles. "I wouldn’t leave my Sensei behind."
