here i go...

[Cora/bob/hprox6/cryybabyy01]

she quickly set her bones and mutterd the word needed to heal them as he punched her breaking her concentration... she winced in pain as she coughed... gasping for breath she was afraid she might cough up blood... "why.... is it...." she spoke slowly trying to breath, "that you wish to .... kill me so slowly?" her wrists were broken and thus leaving her still pretty defenceless. she still tried though... unable to hold on to her dagger it had fallen to the ground. the man she spoke to was seth, the man who she wanted death upon since she was 10, this man infuriated her, being three feet taller than her, he wore a sword at his side and his hair was long, and white. seth harbored a demon inside of himself and that was what was killing cora... she had been fighting a couple hundred undead just before seth chased them all off, she had not slept or ate in three days eather she was already beyond tired. his demonic aura was strong, now that the demon was loose.
"Why do i wish to kill you so slowly? I promised Seth that I would kill you slowly for bugging the hell out of me. You should again blame all your problems on him.... like you always do!" The demon smiled at Cora and sent a blow to her shoulder, it looking like it was dislocated after the hit. "And your making it all the more slower by healing them!"
her sword was already broken, and she had nothing left but her dagger. as time went on they continued to fight, cora growing weaker and weaker though the demon didnt seam to tire. the demon sent an electrical shock through cora's body, the pain was immence to the point where she couldnt stand it she dropped her dagger the electicity only intencifyed. tears pressed out of her as she concentrated on staying alive. The demon stopped his electric attack when Cora started to shed tears. "And now it will end..." He picked up Cora's dagger and held it high as he stood over Cora in a position to stab from above... the dagger came down with in a quarter inch of Cora's forhead. However it did not go any further... the demons arm was vibrating and would not budge....
cora was finally able to move, and control her tears... she slowly backed up... out of immediate reach of the dagger... she quiverd... never had she been so close to death, she wanted to stand up and run away but her body shook to fircely to do so... she was more afraid than she had ever been before... her heart had litterally stopped for a moment just before the dagger came down on her.
The hand turned around for some odd reason... surprise socked the demon controlled Seth's face. The dagger was now pointing toward Seth! The demon tried to stop it but could not... then it struck, plunging deep into the left side of his chest. The demon let out a yell as Seth fell to the ground...
cora watched half in delite and half in horror... the man who she had tried to kill for so long now was eather dead or dying... and the man who threatened her life just moments before had just dove her dagger in his heart... remembering esactly what dagger he had struck himself with she yelled out and ran forward grabbing the dagger from his heart and running by as quickly as possible... she kept running though... she was obvously running from seth.. .just incase he didnt die.
The black aura around Seth expanded and contracted, seemingly gone haywire. Then it exploded outward sending a powerful gust of wind/energy in all duirections for a large radius. Seth was on the ground clutching his bleeding chest. "Please god.... i hope it's gone... it's a shame i missed my heart by inches... if he is still inside of me, then she may still be in danger..." He then grabbed toward the knife... to realise it wasn't there anymore. "d**n..." he said to himself.
she kept running untill she was far in to the woods she leaned against a tree so tired by now that she could colapse right there... she breathed heavy... thank full that she had her dagger at the very least, she read the inscription out loud for some reason hoping to comphort herself, "to my little sister, my yondolla keep you"
Seth got up painfully, realising that he had a dagger wound in his leg. He looked around for Cora and her dagger. Then a realisation came to him. "If the only way to be forgiven for my blind actions so many years ago is to die by her hand and in order to guarantee her safety is to die, then I may as well kill 2 birds with one stone. He felt around with his magic for fear and located it in the nearby woods. Still clutching his chest painfully and limping from his wounded leg, he began moving towards Cora's direction.
cora fell down, she almost passed out where seh sat, placing her dagger where it belongs her stomach growled at her and her weary body threatened to never move again... she only hoped that he had died... that the dagger had gone through his heart, then she wouldnt have to worry about it... she wouldnt have to do any thing and she certainly wouldnt have to hate him anymore.
Seth neared where Cora sat breathless against a tree. He himself moved from behind a tree and collapsed on the ground nearby. "Finish me..." he muttered to Cora. "Fulfill your wish and rid me of my suffering at the same time..."
cora jumped at his sudden appearance, she was up and almost ready to run again in a mere moment not exsactly hearing what he said though her run was sluggish and she appeared run down... she didnt want to die that night... her race normally lived for another good 159 years
Seth laid there, cursing silently to himself. The pain was incredible, he had a hard time getting to where he currently was and could go no further. "d**n... d**n....... d**n!" he said to a gradual shout. The last shout hurt him though and he had to stop to catch his breath. "Punctured my frickin lung...." He caughed violently and loudly, a waterfall of blood pouring out of his mouth creating a small pool on the ground next to him. Consciousness was fading slowly... to slowly for Seth...
what he had said finally clicked in her mind, he had told her to finish him off... how did he exspect her to do that? she barly had enough enerjy to lift her foot anymore, let alone drive a dagger in to him... she finally tripped over a rather large rock just sitting there on the ground... she was to tired to pick her self up... she just lied there rolling over on to her back... she hurt and was tired, and hungry.
Seth had to try again. He crawled his way in the direction Cora ran... pausing many a time, breathing heavy, moving slow, and coughing violently every now and then. He kept going though, he needed to end his own life for his and others sake... "I HATE BEING THE SOURCE," *caughs violently, blood splatters everywhere* "OF EVERYONES PAIN AND HATE!!" He shouted. he could barely move. He began to cry. "And all for some foolish dream of paradise..."
of course cora hadnt gotten far before she had collapsed... "if only the healing spell could at least fix my stomics constaint growling... i think its broken." she mutterd quite serious... she could hear him coming and tried to get up but couldnt even bring her self to do that much... she gave up, and just lied there... her hand on her dagger.
Seth started crawling further. He could see Cora now, collapsed on the ground as well. She was still breathing. "Good...." he muttered. He caughed some more spitting out a volley of blood on the ground and tried getting his breath back.
she saw that seth was bleeing through the mouth now... she almost felt bad for him, and she would have if she hadnt just almost been killed by him... she could finally sit up though she wanted to run off she couldnt, she could barly sit there... she was tired and weak...
"Throw me your knife..." Seth said to Cora. "For the better good, please let me end it here.... for the both of us...."
she took her dagger from its sheath, so many deaths at its blade... her brothers... her nices... thousands of nameless hunters, and so many more that she couldnt fathom to think about... what was one more. she threw the dagger to him with out a word.
The dagger landed a hands breadth away from Seth. Seth took 2 more crawls forward before grabbing the knife. "You always wanted to kill me by your own hand... but it looks like you dont have the energy to do that huh?" Seth laughed "At least it can be by your dagger..."
cora sighed, she said nothing though... feeling the weight of all the deaths over her head... and all the blood spilt by her hands... though the only two people in the world whom she had ever decided needed the death was her brother and seth... as with the deth of her brother she was positive she woudl eventually resent her self for what was going on... though she did nothing to stop it, she wanted his death that badly. she wanted his so badly she was willing to forget about the pain that would be caused by it, and just let him die... after all she could probbably sleep more deeply knowing that he wasnt around any longer.

[Cora/bob/hprox6/cryybabyy01]

He caughed up some more blood. “It’s weird, now on the pinnacle of death do my memories come flooding back vibrantly… It’s like…” He stopped there. There was a rustling of leaves far off, but near enough to hear. “Cora. Take your dagger and run… I sense Vincent! He is here and pissed! Run!”<br>cora was angry with her self for doing it though she took hold of her dagger and placed her hand on the wound near his heart.... she had gained a little bit of enerjy from resting for a moment, she mutterd the same word that she had mutterd millions of times before... only this time it was different, she was healing the one she wanted to kill for the second time... "i cant belive im doing this again." that was twice now that he was so close to death and she healed him, there was something that compelled her, that made it so that she just couldnt leave him there in his pathetic state... using only a little of her enerjy she didnt know how well the spell would work but she placed the dagger in its sheath and started to take off... if he didnt die in a couple minouts she figured the one he called vincient would kill him.
Seth smiled at the thought that Cora had enough respect for him to heal him in his situation. He could get up, but just barely. The rustle of leaves grew closer... only then did Seth realise that they were coming from the direction Cora just went!
cora kept running untill she ran streight into a tall figure... she fell backwards grabbing air where her sword normally would have been. 'oh s**t' she thought to her self, not using the properlanguage for a cleric she just didnt care... she didnt have enough enerjy to fight any one, and who ever this man was she really didnt want to apologize... she got up and began to run past him... more tired than she had ever been before though to afraid to stop.
Vincent felt her run into him and as she started to take off, he raised his arm. A ball of black energy shot out to her... only it did not harm her. Instead she was trapped in a transparent floating black bubble. "Come, I have another pest to pick up." He said and moved toward Seth. Seth saw Vincent come to him and raise his arm. The same thing that happened to Cora happened to Seth. "I am the one you want! Leave her out of this!" Yelled Seth through the bubble. Vincent replied, "She has more to do with this than you could possibly imagine. She is the true source of all of my problems. You were MY tool and she broke you. Now she will pay. And with that, they were off toward Vincents city.
cora was just astounded by suddenly being picked up in a black bubble... she was confused as to what spell or what ever might do this... and as to why she was being picked up, when vincent got to seth she began to understand, "let me out of here!" she yelled drawing her dagger quickly and attempting to pop the bubble knowing it was useless before she even attempted.
Ignoring Cora, Vincent began to talk. "As much as I would like to torture and kill you for my pleasure when we reach my castle, I have lot of business to attend to. I may have to throw you two in a cell and hope you dont rot alive over the course of 5 days. When I get back, we are all going to have some fun!" During this last sentence he laughed a cold hard laugh.
cora continued to try and hack at the 'bubble' surrounding her... frustratied, "WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING!" she yelled out to the man, "AND WHO ARE YOU?"
"I am growing tired of your whining.... but I shall answer your questions..." Vincent started talking to Cora. "You have alot to do with everything. Sure Seth is the one who turned away from the darkness, but you are the reason why he stayed away from being my personal tool. And as for the second question, my name is Lord Vincent... you may have heard of me have you not?"

Seth remained silent knowing full well how easy it was to get Vincent pissed off. He tried to motion this to Cora throuigh his bubble, making the finger rub against the throught sign that universally meant, "Be quit, don't say another word..."
cora didnt see seth at that moment she intently glared at vincent, "so your the one who sent that demonic thing after me!" she was pissed though she had given up trying to pop the bubble... after all she only had enough enerjy left to eather be pissed off or hack aimlessly at the buble... and at least if she put her enerjy twords the anger she could get some answers.
Vincent laughed a hollow laugh. "Yes, I am the one that sent Seth's demon to kill you! I wished I was there to see the brutal beating he gave you. I got word from my bird friends the ravens that you were giving quite the show! I have seen and participated in many beating in my time, but the ravens made it sound like no other! And the look on your face showed how weak you are!" He laughed with glee at these images that had been described to him. "I heard Seth went through alot of emotional pain as well. I see that confused look on your face. He didn't tell you did he...?"
she glared at him, "there is a lot he hasnt told me... though what do i care... all i want is his death!" she replied furious.
Vincent shook his head. "tsk tsk tsk. Seth? It looks like your "friend" isn't your little friend after all! What a shame, you led a lie this whole time, grasping to the thought that she may just be your friend while here she wants to kill you?" Vincent laughed loud and hard. The castle was nearby now. "Don't worry my sweet Cora, you will get Seth's death... and yours as well." At that point they entered the gaping darkness that was the entrance to Vincents castle. Vincent wlaked up a grandstaircase as the bubbles stopped moving. Guards came in and escorted the bubbles to a holding cell, in which the bubbles floated in. After the door shut, they popped, dropping the two passengers o the ground.

[Cora/bob/hprox6/cryybabyy01]

Seth reached into his duster pocket and pulled out another loaf of bread wrapped in cloth. "I know you do not accept things from others, but you will need food... I have butter as well, but am not sure of the condition it is in. He reached into his pocket again and pulled out a oddly shapped lump of cloth. He pulled off a piece of the bread and dipped his finger into the butter, spreading it ontop. He started to eat.
cora said nothing but she turned around and stomped off to the oppisit corner of the tiny holding cell... she sat down with her back to the corner... there wasnt anything she could do... and she only glared at seth... not willing to take anything from him right then.
Seth knew she didn't want to die and would eventually have to come eat some. So he didnt bother her or say anything about the bread. However, after finishing his piece (which was only a small corner of the bread) he said, "Well, I am going to take a nap now. I'll leave the bread here if you want any, just try to ration it though. We will be fed sarcely and poorly for the next few days and the bread is going to be the only good thing to eat here. You can have the bed if you wish..." He layed himself down on the floor, using his duster as a pillow. "Oh, and one more thing. Don't try to kill me in my sleep. I want to be awake when I die, for I am afraid of pure darkness...."
she said nothing not moving from where she sat, hearing every word that he said though not responding as if she hadnt... she thought carefully about it, trying to figure out why she had healed him... it wasnt like she was going to try and sleep in thoes chambers... as the ours passed she grew more and more tired... but she never fell asleep only thought trying to figure out her own actions.
As morning came, no light entered the room. There was no place for light to come through. Seth looked around and blinked slowly examining the room. "Where the hell am I?" He blinked stupidly a few times after rubbing his eyes.
cora replied groggily from where she still sat, "your in a holding cell stuck with me... in vincents castle." she replied still sounding upset. she didnt look at him, or say anything more.
Seth jumped slightly at the noise. "Oh yes. Did you get any sleep? Did you eat any bread?" He sighed and looked around at the familiar room. "Hey, this is the smae cell I was i earlier yesterday!" she gave no responce, though the untouched bed, and the un touched bread were the first clues to her even more tired out state, if she were to even try and stand right then she might not beable to... after all what had happend only the day before had drained her of all her enerjy...
Seth noticed the untouched vital things a human needs to live and sighed. "Why do you insist on starving to death and putting yourself through all of this? There's nothing to protest against. I can tell your hungry and tired. Just eat and sleep. There is no reason not to."
she grumbled at him, "because of the laws layed down." she replied... not willing to give her explination at that moment in time. she just set her head down on her now pulled up knees
cora sat there tired, frustrated and hungry. angry with her self... she could have let him die, he finally knew why. so... what was her reason for her stupid actions? not just the first time but the second aswell. obsessed in thought she slowly drifted away from the reality. she rememberd the look on her brothers face as she thrust the dagger that he had crafted for her only 16 years earlyer in to his heart. that almost pathetic 'im sorry' look. "it would make it so much easyer to hate you if you werent so hell bent on protecting me." she mutterd her head still on her knees, "just like big brother arent you?"
whith that almost inaudible murmer of anger she drifted off to sleep, not wanting to sleep but being unable to keep her self from doing so. as time went by she shudderd in her sleep, the forgotten moments of the day she killed her brother came back in her dreams... recalling every moment to the exstent one can dream its vividness seaming like the real thing. "i hate you big brother." she mumbled in her sleep her whole body flinching as she thrust her dagger into his heart, he coughed up blood on her and fell down slowly to his death... her dreams were alwase vivid but this seamed almost more real than normal. tears had come from with in her though not a single whimper or noise other than the one line she had spoken in her dreams.
Seth smiled as she drifted into sleep after complaining a bit. He sat and waited for her to wake. While sitting there he played tick tack toe with himself in the dust to pass by time. When she got up finally, he knew the only thuing that would be conversed was through arguement. "I wished I could have met you without doing the stupid thing I did..." He said to himself. He noticed he said it kind of loud, and hoped Cora didn't wake. He whispered softly this time. "I was soo foolish, careing not for anyone else but myself and putting people through so much trouble to do my dirty work.... just like Vincent did with me...."
as the hours passed she did cry in her sleep as usuall though in stead of recalling several past moments it was just the one repeatedly... she slowly awoke with much more enerjy though her stomic growled at her louder than it had ever before... she was sore from remaining in that same postion for so long... she stood up with out a word and paced the couple inches between the wall and bed trying to stay away from seth...
"You act as if I have some disease you don't wish to catch!" Seth smiled as he said this in a soft calm voice. "I suggest you stop worrying about our past for temporary and eat something."
she glared at him, and saw the bread still sitting there... she was angry with her self though she took a tiny pice of the bread and quickly went back to the corner where she had sat down originally, "forgive me yondolla." she said almost inaudibly... though she said nothing in responce to seth... she slowly ate her tiny portion... wishing that she wasnt there.
Seth picked up what she said however, since the dungeon was so quite. "Why do you say that? All you did was eat a piece of bread... why do you have to forgive someone for it... it's no big deal..."
she glared at him with out giving a responce... seh obviously wasnt going to speak to him... she thought about it for a while what the man had said... and what the demon had said, 'how long has he rememberd?... was he deciving me to stay out of my wrath?' she thought as her eyes began to stare off in the distance again.
"Why must you keep this grudge against me?" This time his voice had a slight tone of irritation.
"maby because im foolish, maby its just thats the way my mind works... maby im just crazy... i dont know, but my deep despise for you can not be forgotten." she replied sharply
Seth nodded at her words. "I can accept that... but why do you wish not to eat when you are hungry or sleep when you are tired?"
cora replied, "i trust no one near by as i sleep... and its not like i dont want to eat... its that i cant accept things from others weather stolen or givven..." she didnt give the real reason why she wouldnt sleep, it was more pride than any thing... having people see her cry and knowing that she did was terrible for her.
"Ahhh, so this not accepting things from others has to do with other reasons than being stubborn? Very well, I see... and I'm sorry I misjudged you." Seth said, in a truely sincere voice.

She glared at him, "my goddess layed down the law that no one shall take from others what they may need to survive themselves, weather given or not... I've explained this so many times, it’s pointless to repeat my self... besides why would I not want to eat? that only makes me weaker."
"You speak the truth. I am sorry if I have offended you in any way..." Seth walked over to the corner of the room and sat down faced the wall, hunching over and reaching into his pocket. He pulled out something...
Cora pulled her necklace out from beneath her clothing; she pulled it over her head looking carefully at it. that necklace meant at least a long time ago that she was in yondolla's favor, of course now it was nothing but a lie. she played with it twirling it between her thumb and pointer finger watching it spin back and forth.she let out a small sigh, thinking back for a little while.

[Cora/bob/hprox6/cryybabyy01]

Music started playing from a flute-like instrument in the corner. The tones of this flute to the ear where like a giant rainforest with the cascading waterfall nearby and the bright birds flying through the sky where to the eye. Seth played a swift but soft tune that gradually built up speed, faster and faster, and then slowed to a gradual stop.
"that was nice." she said still sounding some what bitter, she might as well be nice, after all she didn’t think that she was going to escape with her life, the man that had entrapped her in the bubble was just to strong, and he had told her she was to die in about four days now...
"Thank you. It was a song my mother sung to me the last time I saw her.... before she was killed. I still remember the tune to this day, even when I lost my memory, I remembered that song..." Said Seth with a slight tone of sadness.
she laughed a little "I know only one song of my people, though that is more than most..." she paused for a moment and continued, "not many of us remember our own language anymore... my big brother taught me as much as he could before he died."
"May I hear it?" Seth asked. "I am fond of music from many regions!"
she seamed to think about it for a little while and finally she agreed, she began to sing it though the lyrics were a little rough sounding though it almost rhymed. each note of the song was carefully sung as to not butcher her race's last remaining song, that actually means something.... it only lasted for a little while and she abruptly stopped, and seamed to think for a moment...it was obvious she had forgotten part of the song.
"What's wrong? How come you stopped? It is a beautiful song...." At that there was a screech as a metal flap opened at the door. A tray was shoved through that had a steaming pile of slop on it. What it consisted of was beyond Seth. "Want any food?" He laughed sarcastically at the joke.
"what do you mean?" she asked, not exactly realizing that the slop sitting on the tray like thing was food... she had only been stuck in a jail once, and though it was for two hours she managed to climb up a rather rocky wall and climb out... they hadn’t had a chance to serve her food.
"I seem to have forgotten the rest of the song, I'm sorry..." she said in response to his first question
" It's alright... even hearing the beginning of your song, I could tell the rest would be just as nice... You haven't been served prison food before have you?" Seth laughed for some time then said, "See that mess they just shoved through the door? That’s what they expect us to digest..."
she dropped the necklace, and when it hit the floor it made a rather heavy sound echoing through the tiny room, she picked it up quickly... and looked back to Seth "how do you consume it?" she asked rather seriously... it didn’t look much like anything she had eaten before.
"Consuming it is the hard part..." Seth told her. "It is quite soft, like mashed potatoes, but it tastes no where near as good. Firstly, it is hard to swallow for you will gag from the taste. If you manage to get it down your throat however, it will shortly come back up... I have no idea what they put in it and never wish to know..."
she sighed, remembering what mashed potatoes tasted like would be more difficult than trying to remember the ending lyrics of the song that she had attempted to sing, "I haven’t had food like mashed potatoes since I was 6." she mumbled at him... not looking very interested in trying the mush that sat on the tray

Seth looked at her for a moment, then looked away. "Where I came from it was rare to have mashed potatoes... I've only had them 3 times... So I guess we're in the same bucket. All I remember is that they tasted good." Seth walked over to the tray, picked it up, and sent it back through the metal slot. He then took the bread and broke it in half. He put one half on the bed along with a half
portion of the butter. "As of now, I disown these. They are not mine and are free to be taken by any hungry souls nearby...."
Cora rolled her eyes, though did not get up... "the bread I ate earlier will surface for now... after all you did say we must ration the bread we get..."
"Yes, we must ration the bread we have. You don't want to end up eating that... that stuff... and I don't want to feel guilty for giving you bread when it goes against your morals... So you can conserve your half and I will conserve mine!"
she nodded in silence, trying to remember the translation of the song that she had been singing... her mother never used the hafling language, but she would often sing the whole song in the common language...
Seth sat on the floor again and began playing the small instrument. It flowed along beautifully until there was a sharp whistle that emanated from it in a repeating pattern. "d**n..." Seth said to himself as he examined the instrument. He spotted a little notch on the part he blew into and noticed that it must have started when he stabbed himself in the chest... Seth shivered slightly at the
thought, but continued to examine the crack. "It's broke..." He pocketed it and sighed....
"you know if I was in yondolla's favor there is a rather simple spell I could use to fix that..." she replied a little bitterly...
Seth looked down at the floor in mention of the goddess that he removed from Cora's life... He didn't reply to what she said. He lay back from his sitting position and closed his eyes. "I was such a fool... maybe I still am..." He whispered...
Cora gave no response, she thought better of it... though she wanted to say something to him... for some reason or another she wanted to comfort him though she thought of what he did to her so long ago forcing her to steal like that, she kept her mouth shut trying to distract her self again with trying to figure out the last of the lyrics...
Seth lay there quietly, thinking about his past... then falling to sleep he began to dream... (Seth begins the quietest of snores on the outside of his head )
"keep you safe, keep you warm... our people may be gone my dear..." she muttered in the same tones as the song she had sung only quieter, "some day they will be found again, the ones of old...." she trailed off almost sounding depressed as she did... trying her hardest to think of the words that were after that, she remembered it was something about meeting up with ancestors in dreams and in death...
In his dream Seth could see his mother. She was smiling at him as he sat at the table playing around with the new flute she gave him. All of a sudden men wearing all black bursted through pretty much every entrance in the building. One of them cut his mother in half, sending her blood all over him. He stared in shock, and then.... screamed as more gashes opened across his back, sending pain through his spine. He began.... to cry as the little girl in front of him did after killing her mother. The girl turned into a more recent face.... as he told the new girl to steal a gem from a nearby church for him. The girl later lost her goddess and vowed to... "KILL YOU!" Shouted the now adult Cora as she came at him and a blue cat jumped in the way sending blood... all over the woods ground. Another cough sent up more blood as a dark figure picked him and another person up in bubbles of energy dropping them off in a room in which Seth.... was being tortured. He screamed… He screamed as he woke...

[Cora/bob/hprox6/cryybabyy01]

she jumped a little looking at him, "are you alright?" it was probably the worst question she could have asked though it was almost an immediate reaction to his scream that seamed of immense pain... "...I mean, what is wrong?" she said kind of aquardly, she obviously was trying to find the right words to ask, she wasn’t used to anything like that
Seth was breathing heavily... he looked around the room for a minute as his breathing calmed... "Nothing... nothing... just a bad dream..." He still couldn't get over how real it all was though. It was like he relived his whole life in a condensed version... only with something extra added. "It was all too vivid for my tastes...."
she replied rather sadly, "I know what it is like... seeing the moments of your life that you want to forget in a dream....." she trailed off for a moment though continued, "it is worse than so many other things... to have to relive each moment over and over." she knew what he meant by a 'bad dream' it was far to obvious
The day went by without much talk or fun. Finally Seth walked over to the door and peeked through the window slot. Three guards stood nearby. He then looked around the room. The walls angled such to where it made small crevices on either side of the door. He looked at the table, on which stood a bucket of water... probably the same bucket of water that was there the last time he was in the cell.
"what are we going to do?" she asked quietly, still not moving from the spot that she had sat down in hours before, she was sore from sitting in the same spot for to long yet again so she decided to stand up and pace back and forth for a while, she didn’t like being enclosed in such a small space, she was used to the wide comfort of the woods... where she could roam anywhere and still have something at her back in times of need, though trees sometimes failed to help.
"I am thinking of an escape plan... but I doubt it will work. There is a spell cast over the castle to where only dark magic will work... and also they have our weapons..." Seth seemed to be struggling in his mind over something.
Cora quickly looked down at where her dagger was supposed to be, "when did they take it?" she asked sharply, "do you know where it is?" she hadn’t realized her dagger was gone, maybe she had just forgotten but either way it was gone, and she seamed distressed that she didn’t have her dagger.
"I used to work here, remember?" He said looking at her. His face showed no signs of him enjoying memories of working here. "I know where it is and how important it is too you. I will ensure you we will get it before we escape... If we escape..."
sinking into a depressed state she nodded, "thank you..." was all she could say at that moment she was dumbfounded, she couldn’t believe that it had been missing for so long and she didn’t even realize it... her most prized position, even more prized then the pendant that she still held in her hand, was that dagger and she didn’t have it, and had no guarantee of ever getting it back....
Seth looked troubled on his face. He looked to Cora as if to ask a question, but then thought better of it.
she had noticed that look on his face and rather oddly asked, "what is it?" her tone not the friendliest but not necessarily angry either...
"I have a plan of escape... but it involves the use of my dark magic. As much as I hate using it, I may have to as our only means of escape. But I want to know if you are comfortable with it before we try....
she paused almost a solemn look cast across her face she contemplated it, of course she wasn’t comfortable with it, how could he even fathom her being comfortable with it... after all that same magic she had coursing through her body just a couple days before, the pain it had caused her... "if it will get us out with our lives." she replied.
Seth sighed. "Alright. Stick close to me. You have no means of defense other than my magic. Here's the plan: See those two crevices on either side of the door? I wan you to get as far into one as possible. I am going to create a miniature explosion in the room, which will bring the guards in. Then I will take them out and we can escape the castle... with your dagger of course..."
she nodded in silence doing as he had told her to. hiding in the crevice next to the door, she couldn’t believe what she was doing... she was actually working with Seth, of course part of it was the fact that she had to in order to get her dagger back, and probably to save her own life... she would just have to hold off on her hate for him, just for a little while.
Seth got into the opposite crevice as Cora and held his palm outward toward the middle of the room. A small black ball of energy appeared and shot out, creating a fairly loud band as pieces of the floor flew in multiple directions. The guards heard the noise and opened the door window to investigate. Seeing their prisoners missing, they opened the door to see where they went. Then all of a sudden, Seth came from his crevice sending an upper-karate chop to the first mans throat, crushing his adams apple. The second man a blast of energy to the head, completely disintegrating it from his neck. Then the third one dropped to his knees, begging for mercy. The man was surprised that a person with so much dark energy could be so kind after Seth had tied him to the bed using the sheet. "THANK YOU SOO MUCH!!!" The man cried out to Seth.
Cora watched never moving from where she had been told to stand, she was quite defenseless with out a blade of some form in her hand. in silence she waited, not exactly sure of what was going on, it was all happening to quickly.
As soon as it began, it was over. "Come, everything is clear." said Seth to Cora. "Now to get your Dagger!" He ran out of the room and up the spiral staircase leading to the entrance room.
Cora ran quickly and silently behind him... ever cautious of what was going on, she would have to rely on her since of hearing to be able to tell if some one was coming though what she was going to do about it she had no clue
Seth took a left that lead up the grand staircase and entered a side room from the main upper level door. In there was a library, most of the books banned. A few dark mages were in the room and noticed something odd about the pair coming into the room. "DUCK! NOW!" Seth yelled to Cora as the mages shot blasts of energy at Seth. "Get behind a bookcase!"
Cora ducked behind the book case in an almost immediate reaction, watching carefully what was going on.

[Cora/bob/hprox6/cryybabyy01]

Seth created a field that dissipated the enemy’s blasts. As soon as that happened, electricity sparkled around Seth's body, gradually getting larger and licking it's surroundings. Then it jumped forward at the 4 shocked mages and fried them to death. The electricity went almost as quickly as it came. "The confiscation room is right at the end of the hall! Let's go!"
she came out from behind the book shelf and carefully ran towards the room that he had spoke of, not opening any doors, for fear of what may be on the other side... she was defiantly for the moment afraid of Seth though the fact that she was so anxious to get her dagger made it impossible to tell....
Seth opened the door and walked in. A single man was standing in the room. He raised his hand as Seth walked toward him as if about to shoot a blast of energy... until Seth grabbed his throat and snapped it on the spot. He then motioned toward Cora to come and look for her dagger. As she looked for her dagger, he looked for his sword and Shurikens.
Cora only had to take a moment’s glance and found it instantly, she picked it up hastily. if one didn’t know her nature better, they might have thought she had hugged it for a moment, looking to Seth for a moment she said with a rather large smile, "thank you." for some reason she was happy, though the still had to make their escape she didn’t care so much any more, realizing that she had almost lost the dagger was terrifying to her, especially since it was the last thing she owned that linked her to her family.
"No problem!" Seth said as he strapped his shuriken belt and sword to himself. "Now let's get out of here before any more hell breaks lose..." As he said that, a shadow appeared in the room. "It's a little to late for that, Seth!" said a new and mysterious voice. "Rufio... part of the Blade Dragon division am I right? I used to be your commander..." Seth said aloud. The other entity in the room laughed with glee. "Yes, but now I am the commander. and have orders from Vincent to kill you once you escaped!" Seth froze for a second. How could he have known that they had been planning an escape? "Cora, I want you to stay somewhere safe. This guy is a powerful assassin. I can take him... maybe you can escape. I'll hold him off!" Seth withdrew his sword and came at the shadow.
"but I don’t know where to go!" she yelled out to Seth, looking once again rather scared of what was happening. "ill never find my way out alone...." she wanted to not be there she wanted to be some where else but she was where Seth was and had to deal with it...
"Back through the library, down the main staircase, and out the main door! You can do it! I know you can!" He took his whistle out of his pocket. "I don't want to have this broken in this fight... it has too many memories, take it and go!" The shadowy figure seemed to have not cared about what was going on and could care less about the girl. He had his stare set on Seth!
Cora caught the whistle and though still unsure of herself she pushed through the doors, and practically sprinted down the stairs working her way as quickly as she could. not exactly knowing what was going on, though for some reason she was reluctant to leave Seth there.
The shadowy figure and Seth stared at each other for a few seconds. Then they both disappeared into a misty cloud. Reappearing in different locations shooting multiple types of magic attacks at each other. Once a minute passed of dodging, shooting, and blocking they both drew their swords and came at each other. The man known as Rufio, knocked Seth's sword off to the side and threw a knife at his exposed side. Seth made a quick noise of pain on impact, but shrugged it off. Rufio hit Seth’s sword again and knocked it out of his hands. "You have grown weak Seth! Now I own you!" and with that, he brought his sword down on Seth... which Seth caught between both of his hands. He focused all of his energies to his hands, sending his highest voltage of electricity through the other mans sword. The man fell over dead. Seth pulled out the knife from his side, retrieved his sword and started to leave the building.
she kept moving on, out the door and through the woods, she kept running back the same way she remembered coming, every step she took she only concentrated on taking the next as quickly as she could, hoping that she wouldn’t be followed.
Seth made it down the main staircase and got tripped up by something. He fell down the stairs and landed face down on the marble floor. A heavy boot stepped on his back. "Why do you insist on resisting?" said the voice of Vincent. The tip of a whip appeared into Seth's vision. "The way I will kill you will take a long time and you will lose your blood slow..."
once she felt she was far enough away she collapsed right there sitting down, she would wait for Seth... being that she was a far distance away she didn’t figure he would come exactly in that direction, but she figured she would just rest to see if he didn’t come... for some reason unknown to her she was worried for his life, though she didn’t understand why after all he had done to her, after all that had happend, she worried about him? not knowing what happend to him, after a day of waiting, he never showed up... she walked off... unsure of why she waited, she didnt understand it but as the hours had passed she told her self that he would be there soon, finally she had decided that waiting for a day for your enemy to arrive was to long... she had to go back and get her sword eventually she would get it fixed... she wanderd on her thoughts kept coming back to him, her eternal enemy and the man, who despite all has protected her.
