"Let me go Soranaki!" Natsume demanded as she struggled to fight against the rope Soranaki had used to tie her up.

"You can dream on it Shuka," Soranaki shot back, watching her fight with malice in his tone while taking out a piece of paper. "You should suffer like how I did before."

"What on Earth are you talking about?" Natsume didn't know much about Shuka, but it DID seem like something she would do.

"That's none of your concern," Soranaki shot back before he smirked, "But I wonder how your friends will react to seeing you work for me."

"As if!" Natsume scoffed. "I would never do that!"

"Heh, you sure?" Soranaki chuckled darkly. "Because I'm not letting you go."

"Huh?"

Soranaki looked at the paper and began reading from it, "Thee shall now bow down to me. Thou are now my puppet. I bind my strings around thour soul and control everything single part of it. Thou are now mine."

Natsume had begun getting a headache when he started, but it suddenly increased, causing her to scream in pain as she thrashed around, begging for the pain to stop.

However, Soranaki ignored her and continued speaking, "My wants are now your wants. What I wish to do is now your task. Follow all my orders without fail. You are a puppet, yes, but you are MY puppet."

"No! I'll never bow down to you! Agh! Make this headache stop!"

"Devote your life to me for eternity. Your old life is now meaningless. I am now your only reason to live! Now come forth my servant!"

"....Yes Master......." Natsume's eyes had become blank. Her once-vibrant chocolate eyes had turned dark brown due to the ritual. In her mind, she now served Soranaki. But she still felt sad over leaving her old life.

Luckily, Soranaki had thought of this. He took out a milky white potion and gave it to Natsume, "Drink this."

Natsume obediently complied. As she drank, her emotions were slowly but surely locked away as well. Her eyes became even more blank and she became more rigid. Her struggles ceased to exist, as if it hadn't been there before.

Then, she kneeled in front of Soranaki, "What do you wish for me to do, Master?"

Soranaki ordered, "Destroy the Agency."

"Yes Master," Natsume accepted.
