(I would like to point out the information i put in the title. It says Kratos because this topic is a pre-agreed meeting place for our characters. This topic is open to others posting in it as well, so feel free to join in.)
Slate walked through the town, enjoying the looks the people game him and his Uniform. That's right. Even your precious Gaurdian was unable to keep me trapped in his Abyss. Though it took me several years, i have returned. He continued walking until he reached the center of the city, then sat on one of the benches in the park.

"So you've returned," Kratos said as he appeared beside him. "I assume you had several near death experiences."

"Not really." I refuse to tell you! "Although the years were not so kind. First I fought through the abyss, which then spat me out into a strange space, most likely the gap between dementions. I was able to find my way back. I am continuing my quest to find Blade, although I am unsure of his current age. Heck, he could've died of old age while I was trapped in there. If you've cost me my revenge..." He cut off, not wanting to start a new arguement with this strange, powerful being. He looked away from Kratos, and his heart almost stopped as he remembered his old friends, and how he may never see them again. He felt torn in half between sorrow and anger. He wouldn't allow Kratos the amusement of sensing his feelings though.
(He does have feelings, he just keeps them buried.)

"You're lying. How easily do you think you can hide your emotions from a psychic?"

"Huph. I don't think anything. I only do as I am ordered." That used to be true. Oh how he wished for those simple days under Sensei. Although he would never go back, not after how Sensei had favored Blade over him. "Unless I have free time. Then I do as I please."

"Besides, you haven't lost your chance to fight Blade. Even though you were there for years, only a day has passed here. Consider those years a type of training to face him. Your friends are still alive and Blade is, too. As I said before, I can train you if you want. I've known your true intentions from the start. That's why I sealed you there. I knew you wouldn't LET me train you, so I thought I'd force you to train your way out."

"Right, that's what you were doing. Training me. The only person who ever has, and ever will, was Sensei. I need no further assistance." He emphasized the words "training" and "assistance", to show he knew enough to know Kratos had sealed him there to try to stop him from causing any more damage. He knew Kratos must have been itching to continue "training" him because Kratos thought he couldn't be trusted. And, perhaps to a degree, he was right. But Slate would never admit it.

"I know exactly where your rival is. Would you like me to take you to him? After those years, I think you may be ready."

Slate's mind reeled. This Kratos knew where Blade was? How? Why? "How do you know where he is? Is he in this city?" He knew the chance was small, but he had to ask.

"He is," Kratos said. "There is a resident here, named Mithos, who has a special notebook that record everything that happens in this city. Blade's arrival, our encounter, me using Tsukoyomi on you, sending you to the abyss to train, everything. With a simple swipe of an eraser and the stroke of a pencil, he can change the reality of this city as he pleases. I found out from him about where this Blade is. In fact, he met Blade personally to purchase a sword for his wife."

Hmmm... Useful information for Team Phantom Then, with a jolt, he realized the amount of trust Kratos must have, to give a Team Phantom member information like that. Didn't he realize that he could easily take advantage of that information? He knew he couldn't, because he felt a strange connection to Kratos. Friendship...? "Tell me where Blade is. I will meet him and duel him outside the city. You may not know this, but when two Hyrameki users fight, a large area is needed, or damages could be done.

"The arena should be the abyss, then. Within the safe area that the abyssal curse cannot touch. Damages can be done there."

"Very well. You may come with. You will transport whichever one remains back." He paused, "Lead the way." I'm coming, Blade, and you'd better watch out.
(we should make the challenge in Blade's Ranch after the battle between Blade and Kenji ends. Then everyone there can be teleported to the arena and watch the duel.)

"How about instead of us walking there," Kratos said, revealing his angel wings, "we fly?"

"If it a long distance, I say we walk. Or," he added, with a miscevious grin, "we race as far as the edge of the city, I'll use Hyrameki, you can fly. Sound fair?"

"Let's just teleport," he said, placing a hand on Slate and disappearing with him.
