Lily watched at this before blinking at Maroon ready to go. The gates of the spirit world rose up to meet her but this time, she wasn't going in as dying. She was going in to bring someone to living. The difference made her heart lift. Letting out a howl herself, the gates opened to let her past. She padded down the way before stopping as she waited for the ceremony to begin.

Maroon srayed where he and so did the others moving from their spot could accidently trap Lily and Jabari. Maroon closed his eyes and thought of Lily -"I hope you can hear me?"- He said he had to close his eyes -"FOr now this is how I will be speaking to you."- He said not waiting for her to answer his question.

Regnar stood on a dune spotting the ritual from where he stood he placed the box down opening it. A rifle and severel Cased bullets lay inside he took the rifle looking over it he took 4 bullets and plaaced it in the mag, he then layed down holding the rifle steady. "Hm, interesting..." He said before putting his finger on the trigger he kept the safety on. "It would be cruel but anything so support the peace." He said waiting patiently.

Claws got over the dune before spotting Regnar and his men. Looking in the direction he had been, he spotted a ritual going on to bring Jabari back. Oh dear. Claws thought before letting out a screeching howl that echoed through the desert. The sand shimmered around the ritual wolves before rising into a dome around them. It flashed once before settling into a light glow. Claws nodded once he was done his work, the forcefield should hold steady for a while. He turned back to the men before lifting his head slightly, "Back down and you shall live. Fight, and you shall die. Your choice." He said in a monotone voice, his face a neutral cold expression. He could sense invisible Norse Shifters taking their places beside him and in front of the forcefield. If the hunters did not back down, they would become visible and fight. If the hunters did, they would stay invisible and provide extra backup for Lily and Maroon. Claws flicked his ears, his eyes pinning straight onto Regnar, holding his stare.

Regnar kept his gun pointed at the dome "Strange for a group to attack a lone human" He said smiling as he adjusted his scope. "But then again Ive killed shifters and humans alike, I guess the saying goes for me You may be called monsters but I? Huh just a soldier following orders and sometimes not following them." He said pressing a button "Even if I fail this area will be bombarded..." He said smiling still not looking at the shifter. "I dont fear death I forgot fear many years ago shifter" He said "Maar wat kan ek se, dis lekker"( But what can I say, its nice) He said holding his weapon in place.

Claws simply blinked, what the hunter said, that last sentence, reminded himself of what he had done years ago. Claws moved to sit down in front of Regnar, his Norse Shifters becoming visible to sit beside him. "Fear is simply something to hold you back. Death is simply something that happens when that time comes. But don't go by me, I only know what happens when shifters die. And the examples are right in front of you." Claws said evenly, no trace of fear in his voice or body lanuage. He would never, couldn't actually, be scared again. He couldn't feel fear anymore. That would always stay with his former leader Stormfire, that fateful day when Claws found out what death felt like. He tilted his head before Thanatos appeared behind him. Thanatos, looking much like his father, said, "Put the weapon down Regnar. There is no need for that here."

Regnar kept his rifle in place knowing the power it had "huh, so your not dead huh?" He said not looking, he was told that the boy was killed many years ago, "And as for you my good sir shifter, we may not fear some things but there are still alot of things we fear and fear does have 2 factors you live by fear or die by it, but did you know theres third? The third one is the one where you protect someone else for fear of their safety, but in this case I dont mind shooting through you both." He said looking through the scope "I still have my mission now if you dont move out the way Ill make sure to target your loved ones after this mission is done." He warned clicking his tongue.

Claws simply blinked before chuckling, "My loved ones? All of my loved ones are already dead. The only one I care about that is alive is fighting his father." One of the Norse yawned before trotting down towards Lily. "Shoot me then. You will not harm Lily, especially since she can not fight at the moment. Honor is something we all hold high with us." Claws said before silver fire rose to his paws. It didn't move but stayed dancing on his fur as it turned from silver to golden and back again. Similar things were happening with Thanatos and Rezhar as well as the Norse Shifters. "Why do you follow Horus human? You must know by now that he wants to wipe out the whole human kind, and never have peace within the desert." Claws said, flicking his ears at the human. Once the hunter had finished being of use to Horus, he would be killed. That was known very well considering Horus was willing to do it to his own son Rezhar.

Regnar only carried on adjusting his rifle "killing the female? No no no" He said with a chuckle "She isn't my target besides the bullet wouldn't kill her since she is already dead, my target is the bloodline of Horus" he said licking his lips, they were as dry as the desert "I'm not here under Horus's orders, I'm here on behalf of ADFA." He said "And don't speak of honor around me, anything that kills has no honor." He said waiting, there wasn't any point shooting the boy while he was half dead. He could still be saved even if he was shot in the head, Regnar had to wait before shooting, but he knew if he took too long the missiles would kill his target along with him.

Maroon grew worried a dome had appeared "dang it we need to moonlight" he said the others nodded before one of them that wasn't in the ritual reach to their side and pulled out a red rock lowering his head before throwing it to the top the red rock glowed then exploded. Sand flew everywhere but the warriors were still out of harms way.
