Gray shot a look at the monitors, as did Kali. Code was running all over the place but Gray spotted the rogue virus coding coming from Lilliths mainframe and threw himself into the chair next to Augustus. Kali spoke in the ancient language again and several more robed figures appeared, she gave them instructions and they disappeared again, several other robed figures were still running in and out with sackfuls of ice, stacking them against different conduits and circuitry. Kali, looked over the set up and then back at the power flow, there was no venting system should there be any kind of feedback. She rushed off leaving Gray to set his own hacking program running. Gray wondered if the mansion would take much more of the thundering energy now running through the hundreds of servers.

Back in the virtual world Augustus stood and stared at Lillith, still pitying her.

"Charon is my mother, yes, imperfect, perhaps but then nothing or no one is perfect. Every living being makes mistakes, it is how we learn and move forward. Fuck is also a poor choice of word, it is simply an abbreviation for the crime of rape and since my mother and father still have a relationship, I don't think of my conception the product of rape. Bastard child? Again, wrong. I know who my father is, I always have."

Lillith was still backing away, grovelling in the dust, trying to get near enough to Augustus to touch him, all the while playing with herself and moaning in deep pleasure. Augustus simply considered her vile and revolting.

"You know you want me Moebius or is it Augustus, do you really know who you are? YOUR FUCKING MOTHER TRIED TO KILL YOU! YET YOU DEFEND HER!"

Augustus stopped and looked down at Lillith.

"You truly know everything and yet nothing at all. Charon has always protected me as has Kizmat, they had to make some difficult decisions but I am a man now, not a child and I can understand that what they did was for the greater good, for the balance to be retained between light and dark. I am both Moebius and Augustus, the King of Shadows, the ultimate balance. Lillith give this charade up before I have to destroy you."

Lillith sniggered and a huge dust cloud began to gather around her.

Back in the computer room, Gray was fighting for all he was worth with the virus program. His eyes flicked quickly up at the power monitor, it was holding steady but Augustus couldn't draw any more power. Kali ran back in the room, she was out of breath and looked tired.

"vented the servers, rigged more power from shadow realm...hang on..."

She stumbled forward and hit a small switch on Augustus' console, the power dial now showed an infinite amount of power for Augsutus to draw on. Kali collapsed into a chair, she couldn't stand any longer with the room shaking so violently, she looked up at the feed from CM7. Evangelion was starting to seem confused and disorientated, good, it was working.

Back in the virtual world, Lillith continued to rant on about his mother, his family, Mortismere, Seer and finally Fein Dacor. Augustus thought about what she was saying and expanded his mind further into the programming, he was everywhere, then he saw what he was looking for, the way Lillith was communicating with Evangelion, it was already partially blocked by the sheer amount of energy he was absorbing, he began to see who Evangelion was, the bitch really was sick but he re-directed the energy and used it to create a shield between Lillith and Evangelion.

"Why did you do that to your son? Why did you make him your slave? Unable to think for himself and yet you call Charon imperfect."

He shook his head sadly as Lillith screamed profanity at him, trying to distract him by approaching him in every sexual way she could but he was now too powerful, he had absorbed energy from the shadows, the shadow realm, from the Earths core itself and dark energy, Lillith raged on...
