The Soul Labyrinth

Tolkalee shook his head. "This is going to be annoying," he sighed. "This man is able to stop time like me, but he can do it better."

"Oh boy. Tatsuo, let's do this." Her sword transformed into a man.

Knight F didn’t bother to deal with them. On the other side of the hall, a figure wearing a formal blue tuxedo with a crystal rose in his pocket walked towards Tolkalee and Hinata. “So…these were the ones the patrol group was talking about? Jeez, give me a break…” Knight E complained.

Tolkalee lowered his voice so that only Hinata could hear him. "Don't you find this strange…?"

"A little. Still, I've dealt with tougher." Tatsuo helped Hinata up.
(Btw, Tatsuo is basically a soul, but he's more resilient than the souls of the labyrinth because he has part of Hinata's soul in him.)

Knight D arrived soon after, coming down from the ceiling. “Hey, Rainer, can I have these?” Knight D asked. “Whatever…I don’t wanna waste my energy on these people…” Knight E insisted but with a grin.

"I mean, they found us so quickly after the announcement," Tolkalee was still facing Knight F, but he knew where the other one was. "I don't know, I might be being paranoid, but it's almost like someone's toying with us."

Knight E was annoyed and kneeled down, sending a wave of his energy towards them. Not even an instance after he touched the ground, Tolkalee's mouth and neck was covered with cold crystal like gems. “Geez…you talk too much…” Knight E complained (again), scratching his neck.

Tolkalee's crystal flashed brightly. He turned to look at Knight E, crystals breaking off of him. "Sorry," he jerked a thumb at his blue crystal necklace. "Mine doesn't like yours. Plus I'm not dealing with you right now. Be patient and wait your turn." He turned back to Knight F.

Hinata was leaning on Tatsuo's arm.

Knight F turned back to Tolkalee, stating “If you’ll excuse me, I have other mortals to take care of. I’m currently not your foe…” he then proceeded deeper into the hallway.

"Coward." Hinata coughed.
"Not now, Hinata," Tatsuo said.

Knight E was physically tired and Knight D has just came back from patrol, so they aren’t in their best forms.

An instance after Hinata said that, Knight F appeared in front of her. “Manners please. You’re suppose to be the adult here…” he warned before appearing again where he was before and walked away.

"You're right Hinata, he is a coward," Tolkalee agreed nodding his head.

Hinata coughed again.
"If I were only an adult…" Tatsuo gently squeezed her arm.
"If I had my full powers, I would kick his a-"
"Hinata!"

"Yeah, pity that he has to go," Tolkalee sighed. "He just doesn't want to lose to another time manipulator."

"He must be a weakling, to be afraid of you."

Tolkalee glanced at Hinata. "No, he just doesn't want to lose to a girl."

"First off: don't call me a girl. I am a woman. Second off, he would lose to me anyway." Hinata smirked, but started coughing.

Tolkalee lowered his voice again. "I know that, I'm just trying to egg him on."

Knight F sighed. “Waste of time…” he continued to the large door at the end of the hallway. Opening it, he went to the outdoors. An announcement was then made…
“Attention. Knight F please proceed to the clock tower immediately. Thank you”

Tolkalee looked between the other two. "Now this just seems unfair. I'm still exhausted, and you're still recovering. Get a few more of them in here, it might be an even fight."

Hinata smiled.
"I prefer action."

Knight D stopped E from doing anything. “Wait first, they’re possibly planning something…” he warned as he held his hand up. His arm morphed into a huge blade while his other morphed into a cannon like weapon. “Judging from Cronos’ speech, the male is a time manipulator and the female’s possibly older than the both of us…some back up might be nee—“ Knight D said before turning to Knight E, not seeing him.

Tolkalee had to laugh. "I had a plan before you got here."

Knight D is seriously confused on where the hell is Knight E, as he doesn’t sense his aura nearby either. Without Knight D and the other two knowing, Knight F paused time and took Knight E out of the room, afraid that he might turn the room they’re in into a flat field if he goes all out.

"Hinata, I'm actually going to have you do me a favor," Tolkalee mumbled.

Knight B walked into the room they are in, unaware of the commotion going on. Without hesitation, he created bloody spikes from the ground beneath Hinata and Tolkalee. Knight I walked in from another door with a bloody spike by his throat. “NATHAN!!! CHILL THE FUCK DOWN!!!!” Knight I exclaimed.

Hinata looked at the spikes, feeling one that had pierced her.
"Oh dear…"
