"But don't I must be Kaja's apprentice first?" She asked quietly. "But I will join you when you die."

Ukay shook his head. " If I do the ritual you won't become her apprentice... " he looked at her with sad eyes. " But you have to have the ritual done to come...or the Shadow will think of you as a offering... " .

He gazed sadly around the place. " You know where I attacked you? " he said.

"Yes. Right over there." She said quietly, pointing to the familiar trees. "But how did you survive that pain?" She asked. "It will hurt much." Her voice quavered

Ukay grinned uneasily. " It will hurt when my soul is forced out and the Shadow replaces it...but then the pain will go...I'll just be a wondering soul then... " he sighed. " And when I attacked you is because me soul is already being pushed out...and the Shadow's...entering... "

" Please have the ritual done...I don't want to be alone... "

"Yes, Ukay. I will. But can you not travel into another body?" She said as she stepped in front of Ukay. She stopped. "This is not a trick, is it?"

Ukay sneered slightly as a joke. " Oh yes, it's defently a trick, because I am really faking about being scared about being killed..." he sighed and smiled at her sadly. " Also I can not travel into another body...it shall be impossable... " the thick tendrile with the blade on the end hovered around Moritum. " So may I do the ritual? It won't hurt...much... "

"Scared or not, I will still come." She said softly. She stepped in front of the tendril. "Now."

Ukay grinned at her. Tons of tendriles shot out of his belly and wrapped around her, carefully not to go near her belly. " fool " he whispered.
The large tendrile slashed her belly, no cut was made. But her insides gone...
A blob fell from Ukay's belly, unlike the tendriles which where ad ark colour, the blob was birght green.
A tendrile carefully picked up the pulsing thing, and put it in Moritum's mouth, tendriles blocked off her nose and mouth.
" Swallow or die " Ukay said.

Moritem swallowed the thing. "Now what?" She thought out loud in a whisper, unable to proses what Ukay just did.

Shinna charged at Ukay bitting him hard on the neck and pulling him away shooting light at the other ryori.
"YOU IDIOT! you have free will and you waste it, you stupid fool!"

She leaps at the ryori and plunges her paw down its throat and rips out the blob and putting her in a sustaining bubble to keep her alive.
