Jackie padded through the alleys of Death City, her weapon behind her. She thought she heard screaming behind her, and turned...only to slam her nose into the wall of a dead end. She heard Sabrina stifle a chuckle and glared. She saw a dim shadow, and strained to identify the soul it belonged to...

"That's him, over there," Sabrina whispered to Jackie, pointing to a shadowy figure as she dragged her partner into a nearby alleyway. The figure was vaguely humanoid, but was impossibly thin and appeared to have three arms that dragged on the ground. His soul will be delicious she thought, as her stomach grumbled hungrily.

"Let's take his soul. The sooner, the better. Let's get him," she said, opening her hand, then closing it around the familiar weight of Sabrina in her hand.

Sabrina laughed. "I'm hungry." She focused her eyes on Sven, trying to concentrate on the battle, but mostly thinking about how good his soul would taste. Her tip gleamed, and she asked Jackie "Hey, do you want to practice soul resonance?"

"Ok. Why not?" Jackie concentrated hard, braced herself. "Let's go! Soul Resonance!" she and Sabrina said simultaneously. Jackie could feel electricity stemming from her and vibrating into Sabrina. Her bright green irises contracted around her dilating pupils as she lifted Sabrina up, her blade glowing powerfully, and swung her at Sven.
(meeeh, I keep hitting add poll insted of reply >.<)

Ohh, this is fun, she thought, trying to match her soul wavelength. Jackie's wasn't particularly stable, so Sabrina tried to focus on keeping hers in alignment. Her hilt had shortened and her blade had lengthened into a deadly point, now glowing black. She was slashed into Sven's abnormally thin body, and he disappeared into a whirlwind of black ribbons, with a delicious kishin egg in the center. She popped her torso out of dagger mode and plucked the glowing red egg out of the air with a slight "glop". Sabrina opened her mouth wide dropped the egg in, chewing and then swallowing, satisfied.
"Well, that was successful," Sabrina announced, losing her dagger form and returning to her usual, human self, "How many souls have we collected now?" She tried to remember, but she never could. The number of souls she had collected left her head almost immediately after she heard it. She supposed it was good that Jackie had a better memory than her.

Jackie grimaced. "One." She stared at the ground, her face burning. Her inability to collect souls frusturated her immensly.

Oh. One kishin egg. Was that really all they had collected? "That wasn't what I expected, but lets go get some more!" she said, trying to be optimistic. She was sure that there were some unclaimed missions they could claim and collect. Sabrina didn't think Jackie would be any happier, but it was worth a try.

"Haha, yeah. Let's go get some more." Jackie said, grinning evilly, her chin-length black hair swiveling as she turned her head, running back towards the school. She noted its ever-glowing candles easily, and ran to the mission board. Jackie looked it over, waiting for Sabrina to speak up.

Sabrina scanned the mission board, searching for a suitable mission. She was tempted to claim a witch, but she knew that would be too hard, and, after all, her goal was to get as many kishin eggs as she could. She finally decided which one to pick. "Got it," she told Jackie.

"Kyn and Ken, huh? Sounds great." Jackie said. That last kishin egg was way too easy, she thought, but these two sound like a great challenge. Absently, she looked through the faces around her but saw none of interest. Hmm.

"Do you want to do this now or later?" asked Sabrina. She was still a bit hungry, and two more kishin eggs would satisfy her. On the other hand, Jackie might want to spend time with others. Still, they had only collected one kishin egg. Maybe she needed to remind Jackie of that.

"We should probably start now, but we shouldn't do any more today after this. There's simply not enough time in the day." Jackie said. Too right. Oh well, tomorrow was another day. Unless I like, die in my sleep or something. But really, how likely is that? "I kinda want to go see what the loser gang is up to."

"Okay, lets go kill those kishin-babies," said Sabrina grinning. She turned her arm into a dagger and took out a cloth. She self-consciously began to polish her dark blade.

Jackie looked quizzically at Sabrina. "Yeah. Although, it dosen't say when they usually come out. Ah well, now's a good time." she said, noting Sabrina's dagger-arm. Sometimes, she envied her weapon's power. Imagine being able to intimidate people that easily! People, as a class, Jackie had noticed, were usually more intimidated by a human who had strange powers then a human who held a weapon. "Hey Sabrina," Jackie said. "What's it like, turning into a weapon?"
