Seto held out his hand and fired a basic ki blast at one of the ghouls. He then hit the other ghoul with the hilt of his katana.

"Definitely not friendly." he said. "They should get some friendship lessons from Casper."
 
"Looks like we'll need to pick this up." Asuza threw a fireball before swinging her leg out to another ghoul, the foot lit up in flames as well.
I'd attempt the Sun Shower Spell, but it would catch this whole forest on fire... She thought.
 
"Theoretically speaking yes, I could purify them, but right now I don't have the time to do that! If these creatures hit you with their claws you will have a poison coursing through your veins that restricts your movement greatly.... we do not need that happening with this situation." Youko said, smacking another incoming ghoul with her staff causing it to collapse to the ground and disappear.

"What are we supposed to do then, just kill these things? Red says there's something different about them and I want to know what exactly it is!" Alurora combated, quickly maneuvering out of the way of another ghoul that was headed her way; hitting it with the hilt of her sword to push it back away from her. The ghouls that had been after Rena had now taken hits from her sharp fall, quickly disappearing into the ground after impact.

Finally, the raven reached the remaining two of the group; letting out one last caw before flying away from the two, going deeper in the forest as if returning to someone. In the raven's place, more ghoul creatures appeared from behind the trees and immediately dove for the two females.

"It IS the bird, I knew it!" The female demon said, immediately withdrawing her dagger and quickly stabbing one of the creatures, followed by attacking the second one with conjuring a ball of dark energy and thrusting the ball at the creature; falling to the ground almost immediately.

"I guess I gotta step up too, I can't just stand here and letcha do all the work!" Serene said, turning towards another ghoul that was heading towards her and withdrawing her wand, she made a waving motion at the creature; orange light beginning to come from the tip of it. "Pumpkin Barrage!" She exclaimed, soon after a barrage of pumpkins emerged from the tip of the wand, then hammered into the ghoul; it exploding almost immediately on contact.

After Asuza's and Seto's attacks on the ghouls nearest them, one more appeared from the shadows of the trees; being much bigger than the ones prior, and it had a purple glow coming from its claws instead of the darker tint.

"I should have figured you were going to waltz up here even if you knew what exactly you would be getting yourself into, but... I can say congratulations, you very slightly surprised me." The female said, before a ball of ice was immediately thrown at the male; aimed at his arm with the spear in it before she letting herself fall towards the ground, her figure now being able to be fully seen.
 
Oriko noticed the ice ball and tried to dodge it, but it hit his arm, causing him to "drop" the spear, which disappeared upon falling a short distance away.

"You got me the first time, but I'm not letting that happen again, you damn witch!" Oriko rushed at the figure, summoning another light spear as he thrust the light object at her.
 
"Must be the big brother." Seto said. He held out his hand and fired multiple ki blasts at the big ghoul.
 
"Then let's toast it." Asuza said. The fire witch took hold of her fire opal pendant and began forming a snowball-sized fireball, not wishing to use up a tremendous amount of energy or burn the forest down with it. Firing it forward after Seto fired his ki blast, and exclaimed, "Burst point!" She hoped it would hit and burst apart to burn the ghoul considerably.

I wonder if the other people crossed paths with anything yet? If only we could chase that raven... She thought.
 
As the ghoul was being hit by the consistent fire attacks, the larger ghoul let out a guttural shrieking noise as it backed away to try and get away from the flames; swinging back and forth trying to hit Asuza and Seto, but instead losing one if its arms from the extent of the fire. In a last ditch effort to attack, the larger ghoul then jumped towards the two, its claws on the arm that had the lesser amount of burns on it, extending just a little bit further outwards than normal.
------

"Finish off the other one behind you, I'll get this one!" The demon called over to Serene, jumping out of the way of the ghoul's claws that had been aimed at her, then immediately jammed her dagger into the ghoul. The creature let out a louder noise of protest as the weapon had dug its way into its heart before it collapsed and disappeared back into the ground. "Since it seems we're going to be stuck together for quite some time, I suppose I should fill you in on my name. I'm called Constance." The now identified female added.

"Not the best time for you to be tellin' me that, but I guess better late than never! I got this other one, so just try and not trip over yourself!" Serene said, turning her attention towards the ghoul present behind her, it seemed slightly hesitant to attack, but eventually dove for the witch. "Bat swarm!" She called out almost in an order like manner and pointed her wand at the ghoul; bats coming from the wand and swarming around the creature, screeching and scratching at its face causing it to back off and instead of trying to assault, running off into the depths of the forest.
-----
"Come now, we don't want to resort to that do we?" The witch said, but quickly attempted to maneuver her way out of the spears path; her arm being clipped by it in the process causing her to cringe slightly, before dragging something or someone out from behind a tree closest to her. "This is whom you were assigned to find, am I incorrect?" She called over, holding the member of the church that appeared to have both his hands tied behind him as well as a blindfold covering his eyes.

"Under normal circumstances I would try my best to try and purify these creatures, but we just cannot afford to given the situation Alurora! We don't have the necessary equipment to keep them bound, so I could perform the purifying ceremony." Youko said, a hint of sadness tinting her eyes as she hit the last of the remaining ghouls with her weapon; it disappearing after a small roar. Alurora watched, not sure what else she could do at this point.

"I... I'm sorry.. I just thought that... we could try and help them.." She said, her voice having the sound of defeat in it as she let out a small sigh. "Hopefully everyone else is alright I suppose." Alurora said to her animal companion whose ears twitched and head tilted slightly in return as if concerned.
 
"Dodge!" Seto said as he sidestepped out of the way.
 
"What are you playing at here? Why the hell did you turn all of those people into ghouls but not the church member? Tell me right now!" Oriko growled as he held his light spear up.
 
Asuza barely missed the Ghoul's attack, but its Claws had sliced her upper arm through her dress. Asuza hissed in pain. This didn't come without a retaliatiom from her however. 

"Tch. I paid good money for this dress, and you have the audacity to soil it?" Her tone was cold, but her left hand lit up with fire, tightly gripping the Ghoul's arm while it had been outstretched. 

"I'll burn you to a crisp for that." Said the fire witch; there were few things Asuza cared for, and her clothing was one of them. "Quickly, stab it!" She shouted towards Seto.
