Illiana smirked for a few moments as she jumped off the windowsill while Kaio addressed her. "Either make yourself useful and go with one of your friends or we'll have to bench you for the duration of this conflict." Illiana then added a few words of her own. "Ooo. Did I finally strike a nerve Kai Kai? 'Useful' could mean so many things but I'll go along with your definition for now. Though if I may add some corrections to that statement of yours, this group is more of a convenient compatriot than a friend." Illiana then felt a glare on her back. She could only surmise that it could only belong to Qamar. Her smirk stayed on her face a for a few moments before sitting back on the windowsill. She could faintly see Qamar muttering something to herself. She decided to leave it alone for now. Boreas had then chimed in for a few moments before turning to Illiana. "Illiana, we're already stretched thin as is, we just had two weeks to train and have some down time, it's time we get moving again or risk losing this conflict. He is out there somewhere and by remaining here I doubt you'll see him again, especially since I doubt Master Kaio makes idle threats." Illiana's eyes wavered for a hot second before turning her toward the rain that was pouring outside. She toyed with the bracelet that laid on her wrist as she looked outside. "You don't think I know that? Idiot. I know where my priorities lie. I could care less about Kai Kai's threats anyway." She sighed before walking up to Boreas. "Don't go bringing up business that doesn't relate to you. Especially that piece of business. Just ignore it and leave to me and we could both go on our merry way." Qamar had then decided to chime in. "One who walks a lonely path finds it's hard to achieve ones' goals." She turned her head toward the girl. "Since when did you become a philanthropist?" She put a hand on her hip before sighing. "That path is however one makes of it. I've carved this path for 10 years and it hasn't backfired on me......" She paused before walking toward the door. "There's no harm in repeating a good thing.....If memory serves I believe Plato said that but I could be wrong." A small blue light emanated from her fan as she unfolded it, fanning her face. She then called out to Tinarah and Chrono. "I'll be joining you guys. I have a feeling if I go with the other group....it'll be a little....chilly." Illiana looked at Qamar before pointing down at her feet. "Let me know when you guys are leaving. I'll be getting ready in the meantime and Qamar..." A smile painted across her face as she spoke. "Secrets, secrets are no fun unless you share with everyone." She left the room to walk back to her chambers to gather her things that she would need on this mission.

Within her dreams, Illiana had found herself with her father and brother playing the piano together. Their father had opened up a journal of all the songs he had composed years ago. The three played the piano, violin, and sang to their heart's content with their mother clapping along to their beat and rhythm. Once Koa had fallen asleep, their mother had taken him upstairs to tuck him in for the night. Illiana wanted to continue playing and singing. Her father looked over at her and smiled before turning back to his journal. "Alright little light, can you keep a secret for me?" Illiana nodded her head. Her father opened up his journal to an entirely different page. Being the curious cat she was, she looked over his shoulder. "These are songs I never got around to finishing. I started writing the music but never finished composing or even put in lyrics. But someday, and it will happen, I want to be able to finish these songs but I might need some help. Do you think you can lend a hand?" Illiana nodded her head enthusiastically. He had torn the unfinished songs from his journal and passed them to Illiana. "If I can't get to those songs then can you promise me you'll finish them and sing them for me?" Illiana nodded as she held the unfinished songs to her chest. She opened her eyes and saw her dad slowly getting farther and farther away from her. "Dad?...Come back!!!....Dad??..Don't leave!!!....Dad???" She felt her body shake and immediately opened her eyes, reaching her hand out. "Daddy!!!" Illiana broke out into a cold sweat before realizing where she was. She started to catch her breath before addressing Taran. "Goddammit Taran. Don't scare me like that. Next time, don't use that approach. You'll give people heart attacks like that." Taran had then scolded her about her staying the night in the room. "It's not like this is the first time I've done this. Besides, I had important stuff." She looked over at the sheets of music before closing her book. Taran had then told her of the meeting Gero was going to be holding. "He's not gonna die if I show up late. Relax kid." She picked up her book and went to her room to put the book back. Illiana strolled into the meeting as Gero had already started. She sighed in boredom as she looked out the window. She then noticed Eilonwy sitting on the meeting. Gero had then requested Torrin to go back to the Realm of Darkness to see if they would be able to give Eilonwy sanctuary. Gero had then let the rest of the group decide how they were going to split up. Illiana had then decided to open her mouth. "If Eilonwy's going then bring Taran. You're basically asking her to go with strangers she doesn't know." She turned to Torrin. "I'm sure your people are nice but think about it this way old man." She then focused her attention back to Gero. "She'll probably be on edge from the different setting then what's she's used to now. If you guys bring Taran, not only will she be a little more at peace but she'll have a familiar face to talk to once Torrin and his group leaves." Illiana started for the door before turning back. "And while on that note, what if I refuse to go with either? I got stuff on my end to figure out." Illiana put a hand on her hip and her other hand up by her shoulder, palm up. "As noble and riveting this is, I'd rather not go." Illiana sat on the windowsill, as if she was getting ready to jump out of it.

Illiana kept walking nearby the trees feeling a bit more light headed than she was in the simulation. She could smell the scent coming from the lake nearby. Her vision was getting fuzzy and fuzzy with each step. She dropped to her knees as she started to breath heavily. Illiana then heard a voice call out to her. "Are you okay? You don't seem to be doing well." She turned her around to could barely make out who it was. She started swaying a bit from side to side. "K-Koa....?" She leaned back against the tree she was near and tried to steady herself. With her hand still on her head, she tried to steady her vision. Once her vision wasn't as fuzzy, she saw the owner of the voice was Boreas. "Oh...It's just you....damn..."' Illiana got back up slowly but dropped to her knee again. "I'm doing fine just a little under the weather if you're gonna be a curious cat." She knew it was more than 'a little under the weather'...................... During the next two weeks, Boreas had advised Illiana to rest for a couple of days. She decided to go against the advice but with some convincing from Taran, she finally got the rest she needed. After she was up and raring to go, Atmos had requested for Chrono and herself to train with her for a bit. She ran into Boreas along the way and made sure they weren't in public. He asked her if she was feeling any better. She nodded and kept walking. After her training with Atmos, she ran into Taran and he walked with her to a room she was using to practice her acrobatic skills. She and Taran talked for a bit as she practiced, Eilonwy had then found the two and joined in on their conversation. Once she was done, the two wanted to follow her to the piano room. The three walked into the piano room and Illiana walked to the piano bench. She closed her eyes as she placed her fingers on the keys. Illiana reached back in her memories and let those memories take over her fingers as they played. The piano playing went on into the night. At one point she had told the two to head off to sleep as she decided to stay. She grabbed her locket and opened it up. She began to play that same song once again to keep her mind at ease but still remember her resolve in this mission.

Illiana's form burned to ashes and from those ashes her previous outfit re-emerged. As soon as the letters emerged in front of them, a big sigh of relief left Illiana's mouth. As curious as she was about Torrin's sudden change in eye color, she decided it wasn't worth asking. Her head was pounding and she felt a bit hot. Torrin had then gave his thanks as she nodded. "Next time you wanna pull that damn stunt, let us know ahead of time will ya? There's only so much I can do with my limitations. I-" The room immediately started to spin around her making head dizzy. She immediately placed her hand on her forehead to steady herself. She shook her head as if nothing happened. "Just let us know next time. End of discussion." She kept her hand on her head before turning her head a bit. "But for what it's worth.....Good job....Both of you. Sorry I couldn't be much help." With that Illiana walked out of the arena and outside where the breeze had it immediately hit with a nice cold air. She kept walking until she found a spot where it was void of anyone. She collapsed onto her knees as she started breathing heavily. She summoned her blade and immediately turned it into her umbrella. She quickly reached inside and pulled out a thermometer. Illiana took her temperature and immediately sighed in irritation. "103.7....Could be worse. I'm sure it'll pass in a couple hours...." Illiana stood up slowly and tried to walk to the lake nearby but felt herself staggering a bit. She put a hand to her head to steady herself as she tried to walk, hoping nobody could see her.

Illiana was starting to feel a bit dizzy once again. She staggered back a bit and held her head. The next thing she knew she was on a boat. Her eyes widen as the Demon Tower went rushing past the trio. "Oh you have GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!! NOT THIS STUPID BOAT AGAIN!!" As Illiana shouted, the Demon Tower unleashed some of the shadows it held as it clawed their way to the girl, swiping at her and knocking her back. Illiana felt her consciousness slipping back and forth as she stood back up. She felt her head grow warmer and warmer with each blow. She reached her cheek and found some blood on her fingertips. She clenched her fists as she was absolutely done. "........Get....Out...Of..My way....." She walked up to the edge before shouting. "OUT OF MY WAY NOW!!!" With that, Illiana jumped up, hit the Demon Tower and aimed for the heart of the Demon Tower. Illiana attacked and used Sky Dive!
Illiana looked over to Boreas as he apologized to both her and Torrin. He went into his drive form and then launched an attack against the tree. She immediately felt a small pain as his attack connected. She then dodged the tree's attack with ease. Illiana looked back at Boreas before shouting. "Less apologizing and more offense!!! Do what you have to!! Just make sure it takes down this stupid tree!!" Illiana had then cast Firaga and shot it at the tree before changing the keyblade's shape into her Thorn Whip. She immediately jumped up and threw her whip as it wrapped around one of the tree's branches. The thorns dug into the branch as Illiana continously attacked the tree before letting out one last whip against the tree before jumping back to keep her distance. Illiana used Firaga and attacked!
