slowly began cutting around the out rims of the Nathanal’s heart. Nathanal grunted softly throughout this whole process but refused to scream or cry. Blood was pretty much going every where as Dalus went on with this little process. It only took a matter of more minutes before he finally got Nathanal’s heart completely cut out. He laughed as he rose to his feet the dagger and heart now still in his hands as she glanced back to Korryla and gazed at her for a few moments before speaking.

“The poor bitch.”

With that he turned and walked off.

It took about a good eight hour before Dalus made it back to where Eric was keeping Nasse. Dalus walked through the open door and than closed it and locked it behind him. He than pulled the container out and set it down on the table in front of Eric as he himself took a seat next to him.

“There you go.”

Eric arched a brow slightly at the container “And this would be exactly what?”

Dalus grinned “Nathanal’s heart of course what would it be?”

Eric chuckled softly “I see very interesting, thank-you.” With that he rose to his feet and gazed down at Dalus “What do I owe you for this?”

Dalus still had a grin tugging over her lips as he spoke “Let’s just say you now owe me a favor.”

Eric nodded “Alight sounds fair enough to me.”

“Good; now to our next order of business.”

Eric nodded once again “Alright and what might that be?” he said as he took his seat again next to Dalus and waited for him to speak.

“Sikta is now backing in the states and is ready to help out.”

Eric nodded “Good and do we know how large her army is?”

“No, have you forgotten that Korryla had pretty much whipped out all of her army when they where in Russia? But Sikta has spent a lot of time training and training a good portion of a group of men that were left.”

Eric frowned a little at this and just nodded his head once again “I see, interesting and do we know when we can expect to hear from her again?”

Dalus shrugged softly “She told me last that if things got complicated she would write me. But if everything went according to plan than she would meet us here.”
“Well I guess we should be patient and wait for her than, anyways any news on Gunn?”

Dalus shook his head “No there has been no word form him. Ever since Korryla started going on her killing spree everyone went underground word still has not gotten to everyone just yet that she is not doing that anymore.”

“What about the use of Drylic?”

Dalus once again sighed “No we don’t even know if the creature is still alive. I’ve been going through an extensive search to figure out exactly what is going on.”

“Alright; anything that you would like to know or have questions about?”

Dalus sat there for a moment just thinking his face holding somewhat of a serious expression “Well, what you plan on doing with Korryla?”

“Well when the chance arises the plan is to kill her.”

“And do you have the faith that you can beat her?”

“I guess that is something we are going to have to see.”

“What do you mean? It’s a simple yes or no answer; do you think you can beat her or not?”

“Look Dalus I don’t have all of the answers to everything. It’s all a part of chance and I’m willing to give my life to see if I can or not. I’ve never once fought her, but I do have faith in myself is that good enough for you?”


Dalus grinned and nodded “Yes, Eric that is good enough for me. What about her avatar? Are you going to take them both on at the same time?”

Eric nodded “That is how I planned on it.”

“I see well if you want help you know where to find me.”

Eric just nodded again as his eyes drifted to the globe in which Nasse was still in. The temperature in that thing had not changed at all, but the guilt that was eating him up inside was almost unbearable. He turned his gaze back to Dalus to ask. “Have you ever had someone in which you wanted but all they did was betraying you? And you just couldn’t bring yourself to kill them?”

Dalus arched a brow as he glanced from Eric to the globe in which Nasse was in and sighed somewhat before he spoke.

“We are both roughly around the same age Eric and we have both loved and than lost our love ones. Many aspects are different now than what they were before. You above all people should know that you can’t make someone love you. I understand you care deeply for Nasse but her plans have been long set ahead before you even really got to know her. You can’t change someone’s heart and how they feel about you. You above all people should have known that Nasse works to improve herself and that is exactly what is going to do.”

Dalus paused for a moment to perhaps just let all of this set in. The two of them sat there in silence for a few moments before Dalus once again began to speak.

“You have a couple of choices to try. Show her that you do care and show her your world and what it is like and the things in which you have to deal with. It’s the one thing you can try to do to at least show her how you feel. Or you could take the latter of these options and let her freeze to death in there. Take your pick but the choice is yours to make. There is nothing I can really do to help except what I just did.”

Eric nodded as his gaze slide back to the globe “I know; thank-you again Dalus.”

With that Dalus stood up and grinned “Ahh think nothing of it. You know where to find me if you need anything and if something comes up or changes I will be sure to send word to you.”

They both nodded once again to each other and than Dalus turned and left. Eric sat there for a good while longer before standing up himself. His lingered there on the globe as he just stood there and stared at, she was in there and she was more than likely getting closer to death with each passing moment. Why did he care so much for someone in which he could never have? Maybe it was the fact that he could never have her or call her his own. They were all just thoughts and had rushed through his mind so long ago when he had first laid eyes on her. Shaking his head softly he turned and walked out as well to finish the business in which needed to get done; for he could no longer linger on her as much as his heart desired it she was nothing more to him.

Korryla Awakes To Find Nathanal Dead

She grunted softly as she tried to sit up. What had happened? Why didn’t she see that coming? Why didn’t her ‘other’ step in to help or take over? Her mid section was covered in blood; dry blood none the less at least it had stopped bleeding. Her eyes fluttered open as a soft whimper escaped from her lips. Something didn’t seem right and yet she could not think of what it could be. She wanted so badly to move but the pain was just too much at the moment. Than out of nowhere it had hit her, the thing that was wrong. Where was Nathanal? Oh God, no. Quickly she forced herself up to a sitting position as she let out a soft whimper again as the pain coursed through her body as tears were streaming down her cheeks. She got on her hands and knees and began crawling her way over to where Nathanal’s body was laying. It took several minutes for her to make her way over to him and when she saw him, the blood, the missing hearts, the guts, it all made her skin crawl for the very first time. Her body went completely numb as just kneeled there staring at his body “Damn YOUR ERIC!!! DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!!”

Her voice echoed out throughout the area as the tears kept on streaming down her face. How? More of the questions why? Why did Eric want him dead what was the purpose of killing him? She pushed herself up to stand as her knees began trembling; the pain was still coursing through her body with every movement that she made. Holding her left hand up palm facing outwards Nathanal’s body she fire a small fire ball at his body and watched as it erupted into flames. She fell down to her knees as she folded her hands and began to speak.

“Your darkness of creatures deserves no more than what they should get. But this one did nothing to deserve this, he nod nothing to take another in this life that he was made into now. If at all leave me damned for life but take him. His soul should rest, rest in a land of peace in which he should be at for ever.”

With that she rose to her feet as her breaths began to quicken with each passing seconds. Of course the insanity and the anger began to all kick in at once. Her focus began to blur the flames of darkness in which she knew became her only thing in which she could see for the vampiric instincts began to kick in as she turned and screamed. “ERIC!!!!”

Forlia Finds Nasse

Her wings were spread out to their full length as she was just standing there over looking the building in which she had watched Dalus walk out and several moments later Eric walked out. There didn’t seem to be any guards but how was she going to get in for surely the place was locked, right? She wasn’t going to waste anytime trying to think about it. Leaping into the air she began her decent down from about 60ft up. Once she reached about 20ft she tucked her wings in behind her and began to simply fall. She landed on the ground in a crouching position with her eyes gazing straight towards the door. Quickly she rose to her feet and began walking towards the door; she stopped just inches away from the door. Lifting her right hand she placed her hand around the door knob and tried to open it. But the door was locked. Taking about a good 5 steps back as she once again lifted her right hand up, palming facing out towards the door. “Small key fire blast!”

Quickly a small odd looking orb that was surrounded by a green flame appeared. Within seconds she fired the orb out towards the door and the moment it hit the door it blew it right out of the hinges in which were holding the door in its place. That wasn’t the bad at all, so with that she began walking forward as she entered into the building and saw the table, the two chairs; which were now pretty much broken in two by the door. About 10ft in the center was a globe and Forlia was pretty much guessing that Nasse was inside there. It looked as if something was going on inside, but what? Where and how the fuck was she going to get rid of the thing? She quickly began searching around looking for some sort of control panel for this thing. Shit! How the hell.. where does it open up at? “Fuck!”

She began searching all over the place before running out to the globe and hitting it with her bare hand. Glass.. so that means it has to be controlled somehow. “Open!!”

And with that the globe simply opened up from left to right. It was frozen on the inside and there in the middle laying there with snow and ice was Nasse, freezing to death. Quickly she scoped Nasse up into her arms, turned and walked quickly out of the building. As she got outside Nasse stirred slightly as her eyes fluttered open. “…Forlia?”

Forlia smiled faintly and nodded somewhat before leaping into the air, her wings spreading out to their full length as she quickly took flight up into the sky. Nasse’s body began shaking badly before she had passed out. Forlia set out on her journey now; a journey in which she had to find a safe place to put Nasse so she could go back and find Korryla and Nathanal. Hours had seemed to have passed and she was still up in the mountains searching until she noticed an entrance to a cave. Forlia landed several feet away from the edge as she gently laid Nasse’s body on the ground.

“Nasse? Nasse please wake up.”

Forlia’s eyes soon caught sight of the figure in which was standing at the entrance of the cave; she squinted her eyes somewhat as she just try to study the figure for a moment before speaking. “Who are you?”

Slowly the figure lifted her head and stepped out form the shadows of the cave and into the light. For the told depths of an unkind mistress that holds more to what merely binds her to this place. Bond to the craft and the art of war this maiden must carry out a job in which she has no desire to hold. Yet destruction seems to always be at her doorstep and with no place to call her own she accepts her duties and carries on. She stands about seven foot five, with long white hair, pale skin. Her eyes are covered by dark sunglasses which conceal her completely purple eyes. A white tang top, white pants, and black boots. She is truth; truth to seek out all evil. She grinned somewhat as she began making her way over to them.

“Hmm, well let’s see here; why don’t you tell me who you are first.”

Forlia arched a brow slightly and frown before speaking “I am Forlia and again I ask who you are?”

The woman chuckled slightly “My name is of any importance until I have all the information I need.”

“And what exact information do you need?”

The woman let out another soft chuck as she crouched down to the ground her eyes gazing over Nasse and than back to Forlia.

“You see I am what people refer to as the truth. I seek out all that is evil and destroy them. Who is your friend?”

“Interesting I suppose; my friend here is Nasse.”

The woman nodded “And what is wrong with her?”

Forlia shrugged softly “She was taken hostage by a man named Eric who took her to a building and had her locked up in a globe like thing where I found her freezing to death.”

The woman again nodded “I see, well in any case my name is Mistress Leia. Help me get her into the cave and I will see what I can do.”

With that the Mistress rose to her feet and turned around and began walking into the cave. Forlia once again scoped up Nasse; rose to her feet and followed the lady into the cave. The walked for quite sometime in the silence as neither of them spoke a word to each other. Finally the Mistress came to a stop where a small fire was burning.

“Put her next to the fire so we can warm her up.”

Forlia did as she was told and laid Nasse on the ground next to the small fire. Rising back up to her feet she looked at Leia. “Now I must ask you a favor.”

The Mistress grinned “And that would be?”

“I need to go back and find Korryla and Nathanal to make sure they are alright and to let them know I’ve found Nasse.”

Leia arched a brow slightly at the mention of Korryla’s name, though she nodded before speaking “You look like Korryla, so now I ask you who exactly are you?”

Forlia rolled her eyes as she began to walk to the front of the cave. She stopped and tilted her head down somewhat “I am Forlia; Korryla’s avatar.” And with that she walked out of the cave and leaped into the air as her wings once again spread out to their fullest length and she took flight and left. Mistress Leia had walked out of the cave and watched as Forlia took off. Truth, here was the truth of in fact with this encounter she was dead sure that she was suppose to be helping them.

Forlia finds Korryla

Korryla had not and at the moment still could not move from the spot in which she was standing in. The pain coursed through her body still and all she wanted to do was die. Hope? What hope was there for her now? Nathanal was dead and she was guessing Nasse was pretty much dead herself. A soft hiss escaped form her lips as she jumped forward and began running through the woods as quickly as she could carry herself. The pain ran up through her feet, her legs, her stomach, her chest and all the way up to her head. But she did not care for now it almost seemed that she was turning the pain into an ungodly amount of energy. Finally she reached the edge of the forest in which she saw Forlia; quickly she came to a stop as her breaths came in short gasps. Her voice was rough and somewhat demonic as she spoke “Why weren’t you there?!” She cried out as the black tears started streaming down her face once again.

Forlia arched a brow slightly as she tilted her head somewhat to the right. “What are you talking about? What’s wrong?”

“You weren’t there!!!” Korryla cried out again. “You always said you would protect me!! Why weren’t you there?!” Again her words were drowned out by her own tears.

Forlia quickly made her way towards Korryla “I don’t understand what is wrong? I was helping you remember I was out looking for Nasse. But what the hell are you talking about?”

Korryla charged Forlia as she threw herself at her. Forlia simply grabbed her and held her tightly to her as Korryla screamed “He… he is dead!! They killed him and its all my fault!!”

Forlia just held Korryla close to her and sighed somewhat “Come on we have things in which we need to get done. I’ve found Nasse and she is in a safe place at the moment, but we need to get going.”

Korryla slowly came out of the insanity in her mind as she nodded and broke out of the embrace. Her gaze fell upon the ground as she sighed herself. “Is she okay?”

Forlia nodded “Yes, she will be okay, I meet some woman and she said she would watch over her and help take care of her until I got back.”

Korryla arched a brow slightly “Who exactly is this woman?”

Forlia frowned somewhat “It’s not easy to explain. She said her name was Mistress Leia, she also mentioned something about being truth.”

Korryla nodded as she lifted her gaze to Forlia “Alright, take me there and let us figure out exactly what is going on.”

Forlia smiled faintly as she spread out her wings turned around and grabbed Korryla by her shoulder as both of her wings started flapping up and down; her and Korryla were now on their way to go get Nasse. It was now just a matter of time in which would lead to a must chaotic journey that Korryla would now have to face.

Sikta contacts Dalus

Ring!! Ring!!
“Hello?”

“Dalus?”

“This is he; what do you want?”

“Your not very nice to someone you have not spoken to in a very long time.”

Silence on both ends before Dalus finally spoke. “Sikta, I was wondering when I would be hearing from you.”

She laughed “Aye; listen I knew where Nasse is and I also know that Forlia and Korryla are on their way to where Nasse is at.”

“Oh? Last time I saw Nasse was locked up by Eric. I take it that is not the case anymore?”

“No, her current location is with Mistress Leia.”

Dalus chuckled softly “So it is lady truth herself who will be making an appearance in this. How wonderful is that to know.”

“Dalus look I know that Eric wants to take care of this his own way but we have an opportunity to seize all of them and we need to take this time to move and do it.”

Dalus once again became silent as he considered this. “Sikta I understand that you want to move on this but I gave Eric my word and he wants to take care of this than we let him. First mistake he makes he is going to end up dead.”

Sikta sighed “Dalus I want your permission on this before I make my move and I’m not ending this conversation until I get what I want. So now I’m telling you again we have a chance to take them by surprise and you know damn well that we will not get a chance anytime soon if we wait.”

Again nothing but silence; yes Sikta had a very good valid point but what would Eric think about all of this? “Alright you have twenty four hours to do what you want. If nothing gets done I want you to get the hell out of there is that understood?”

“Yes it is thank-you. I owe you one.”

“That indeed and I will come to collect when I can.”

With that Dalus hung up and Sikta was just grinning.

24 hours Begins Korryla Meets Mistress Leia

It took a little bit longer than expected for them to reach where Forlia had left Nasse at. About two hours down and still it seemed hopeless. The fog was beginning to set in and with the change of weather that was beginning to set in it didn’t seem as if the two of them were going to make it through the mountains. But there a little ways off to east Forlia spotted the Mistress and Nasse standing near the edge of the cliff over looking everything. Coming in slowly Forlia put Korryla down before landing on the ground herself. Nasse smiled faintly at Korryla “I guess I owe you a thank-you.”

Korryla shrugged softly “Don’t worry about it.”

Mistress Leia stepped closer to the three of them “Now I hope don’t plan on running off and taking her anywhere she has a long healing process ahead of her and needs to find a safe place to stay for awhile.”

Korryla glanced at the woman and nodded “I see thank-you for helping her, my name is Korryla.”

Mistress Leia smiled slightly and bowed her head as well before answering “It was not a problem Korryla I am Mistress Leia.”

“Alright, now we need to find a safe place for Nasse to stay and than we need to get going. Nathanal is already dead and I’m not about to loose another one of you.”

Mistress Leia arched a brow slightly and even though they could not see it Korryla knew that she was being question or the woman didn’t understand something. They stood there in silence before the Mistress spoke.

“Look I don’t entirely understand what is really going on. But I see something that all of you form a very good team. I don’t see all of the evil that is usually there when it comes to dark creatures. I’m here to help you if you want my help.”

Korryla arched a brow slightly “Look Leia I really don’t know who you really are. I’m sure like me you’ve heard the rumors and the stories like I have about you. I don’t want anyone else getting involved for I can’t grantee anyone’s safety anymore. Things already got extremely dangerous for the people who know me or around me. You want to help than that is great I’m going to need all the help I can get but I’m not going to ask for it.”

Leia nodded “Alright fair enough you just got yourself an extra set of hands but I do things my way and for my own reasons I travel alone.”

“Fair enough.”



20 Hours to Sikta’s Deadline

For the time being the four of them had went into the cave to try and figure out exactly where to put Nasse. The clouds were rapidly moving in as the storm began to get on its way as well. The wind was blowing and hollowing and moving about 50mph as the rain began to pour down. Sikta’s deadline was going to slow everyone down but they were already half way up the mountain. They being Sikta and about fifteen of her best people; she wanted Korryla out of the picture to ensure that her people and the other vampires were going to be alright. This right now was all going to based on time and accuracy; she had to do this, had to make sure that everything would be alright. An hour had just pasted and they had barely gotten any further than where they were before. Damit they had to get moving for they needed to get to the top of this mountain.

Another hour had passed as they were still climbing up the mountain. No one said a word about the weather they all just kept moving as one and trying very hardly to get to the top of this mountain as quickly as possible. This time though they had made much more process than Sikta had planned for. However the further they moved up the mountain the worse the weather had gotten.

16 hours To the Deadline

They had reached the top with 16 hours to go. Standing off to the side away form the entrance cave there stood Sikta soaking wet from the rain. A demoness brought forth from the lands of hell, darkness consumes her insides and at the moments in time she looks like an angel brought down from the heavens, but her true nature id perfectly clear. Standing at about five foot six with long blue hair, golden eyes, and a slim well built body. Dressed in all black leather with black boots; strapped to her waist is a silver chain which holds two black 9mm guns on each side black katana strapped to her left side. Her skin is deep grayish color which seems to make her almost look like a drow or at least give people the impression For everything is not what it seems for what it seems for even the most darkness creatures on this planet lies a much more darker secret.

They were all soaking wet and with the wind now blowing and about seventy miles per hour they all felt as if they where going to be blown away.

“We can’t just run in there!!” One of her men shouted.

“We don’t have time to scale this place we only have 16 hours left!!” Sikta shouted back. But she knew he was right them just running through the front entrance was not going to be the greatest of things in the world to do and they had to do this right.

“Alright!! Listen up!! I need five people to come with me!” Sikta turned to one of her other men and shouted “Give me six hours to get around and in there. Seek shelter behind those rocks and once six hours have passed you go through the front entrance!! If you reach them before I get there go through the plan as followed!!”

The man nodded “Got it!!”

With that Sikta and the five other men turned and five other mean turned and began making the journey to the other side of the mountain. The rain was pouring down even harder as the wind was rapidly blowing out of control. Sikta new damn well why the weather was as fierce as it was. The so called holy grounds in which the cave was laying on was said to have been blessed by the Mistress herself. The woman of truth in which so many people had come to know her as; the woman that had shown up on her land so long ago in hope to rid the earth of her. Heh that was a story to finish at another time.

Ten Hours to Deadline

The other ten men that where waiting finally started to move to the front entrance of the cave. Yes, it was time to see if they had the skill and the power to follow this out. Wearing all black suits that almost looked like diving suits but not quite; geared with guns, bullets, and katana’s and skilled in the art of war and black magic. Slowly and quietly they began to make their way in.

Nasse sighed softly as she turned to look at Leia who was intently had her eyes gazing towards the front of the cave. Finally the silence was broken by Nasse as she took a few steps towards Leia.

“Ten hours this storm has lasted over ten hours, is it always like this up here?”

Leia tilted her head down somewhat before turning to look at them all “No.”

Korryla arched a brow slightly as she rose to her feet “What do you mean no?”

Leia sigh softly “The last time a storm raged on like this I was in a very large battle.”

Nasse blinked “But your not in a battle” her voice was full of concern.

Korryla took a few more steps towards Leia “You are after a fallen angel from heaven. Is this you’re doing?”

Leia’s head dropped to the ground as she stood there in silence.

Korryla shouted “Answer me!!”

Leia’s head snapped up as her eyes locked on Korryla “No!! It’s not so we now have two possibilities. One someone is making this storm happen.. or..” She paused as the other thought hit her.

Forlia frown and rose to her feet “Or someone is on their way in here to attack us.”

Leia’s gaze snapped over to Forlia as she just stared at her in somewhat of a shock look.
Korryla shook her head “Is the front entrance of this cave the only way out of here?”

Leia said nothing.

Korryla snapped “God damint Leia answer me!!”

Leia jerked her gaze over to Korryla “No”

“Fuck!!’ Korryla ran her hands through her hair quickly as she looked at Forlia “Don’t you worry about me just get you and Nasse out of here. Got it?!”

Forlia blinked “But you can’t on everyone that comes in here!!”

“Don’t argue with me just do it!!”

No matter how they looked at it they never had enough time for the moment that they stopped thinking for that split second all ten of the men where standing their with their katana’s in hand as once of them screamed out. “Freeze!”

All four of them jumped and jerked their heads up in the direction of the men. Blood shed; was this all they had with them? Nasse slowly stepped back towards where Forlia was but a little more further off to the side as Korryla took another step forward as she came to stand right next to Leia. “This is it? You’ve got to be kidding me right?”

One of the men called out “If you want blood shed than so be it. If not than just come with us.”

Korryla laughed somewhat “Oh and who exactly are you?”

“Part of the SincoLepakla clan.”

Leia’s eyes grew wide with shock as she stared at them and mumbled softly “Sikta…”

Korryla arched a brow and glanced over at Leia “What?”

Leia slowly glanced over at Korryla “This must be what is left of Sikta’s clan. I thought I killed all of them off after I killed her off. But it looks like I might have forgotten a few. I guess now a part of my past has caught up with me. Something in which doesn’t involve you. I’m sorry for this I should have told you to leave the moment you got here.”

Sikta’s blade was drawn as she inched herself slowly against the wall of the cave making sure she was still deep within that shadows. No one ever saw it coming for no one had realized it. Her movements were sharp and quick as her blade was forced out of the shadows and was pushed through right into Forlia’s back. As Sikta forced her way out of the shadows she pushed the blade even further into Forlia. Forlia let out a soft gasps as her eyes grew wide with fear. Korryla spun around to see the fear in Forlia’s eyes, the
woman that pushed the blade in her and Nasse who was now being held at gun point with five more men standing around her. Leia’s eyes grew wide once more as she stared at Sikta “Your… your suppose to be..” Leia could not finish the sentence for she was in to much disbelief.

Sikta grin as she yanked the sword out of Forlia who than fell to the ground on her knees her eyes locked on to Korryla. Sikta simply shook her head as the grin was still playing over her lips. “Dead? Oh my dear Leia I’m already dead.”

“But… I….”

Sikta chuckled “No no you forgot one important thing. The place I came from is the place I went when you killed me.”

Korryla just stood there staring at Sikta as a blind fury and rage slowly began to fill her. Sikta grinned at Korryla “Now now my dear it is pointless to even think about killing me I will just come back like I did before. Now if you want you friend Nasse here to live you will simply just come with me.”

Leia glanced over at Korryla as Korryla met her gaze “Spare the bloodshed for now it will be easier this way.”

Korryla’s gaze fell to the ground as she just stood there. Why? Where was her ‘other’ at? Why hadn’t she come out like she had done all these times before? Was she relying on her to much? Was this really her time to turn in like this? Damint she could not figure it out and as her gaze slowly slide to Forlia she was now fighting back tears. Slowly her head nodded “Alright we’ll go.”

She didn’t even here her own words as she spoke them. Everything was happening so fast and she could not take her eyes off of Forlia who was still kneeling there staring up at Korryla. The ten men that were standing at the front of the cave move towards them and took whatever weapons that they had on them. Sikta pulled out a leather bad and pulled out three things that almost seem to look like handcuffs.

“Now time for the fun part” With that Sikta slipped the handcuffs on all three of them, they all having their hands cuffed behind them. They were not normal hand cuffs they were made out of black and blue steel and had a pinkish glow to them. Nasse grunted softly.

Sikta chuckled softly “My dear you must be a while lot weaker than we had expected.”

Korryla arched a brow slightly as she glances from Nasse to Forlia who was still kneeling on the ground, her eyes still wide with shock and she was covered in her own blood and her breathing was slowly coming to a stop. But Sikta didn’t seem to be paying her any attention so that must mean … No don’t think about that she will be fine.

“You see the hand cuffs you think you are wearing hand cuffs but you are really wearing is not what you think they are. But anyways we need to get going.” With that each of them were escorted out by two men each. Sikta however was still in the cave with Forlia as she crouched down beside her and whispered softly in her ear “A good servant always seems to die early, but I won’t give you that satisfaction of dying early.”

With that she rose to her feet and caught up with the others when she saw Korryla’s gaze slide back to hers and she saw Sikta just grinning at her. The weather had not let up not one bit for the rain was still pouring down and it looked like trying anything seemed hopeless; Korryla turned to Sikta “How the hell do you plan on getting us down this mountain like this?!”

Sikta just grinned and shouted back “They are called ropes my dear they work wonderful.”

With that they all began to get on their way to get down to the bottom of the mountain.

Seven Hours Dalus & Eric

Eric sighed softly as he lounging in the chair in Dalus’s home when Dalus came walking into the room and arched a brow at Eric. “You don’t look to happy.”

Eric shrugged “It’s been storm for almost twenty hours now.”

Dalus nodded as he took a seat next to Eric “Yeah that is had, kind of makes you wonder about some things now don’t.”

“Yeah, any word from Sikta.”

Dalus grinned “Actually yes there has been. She is working on something right now and has about seven hours to get back here.”

Eric arched a brow slightly as he sat up in the chair. “Is there something your not telling me?”

Dalus nodded “Aye there is; Sikta saw a window of opportunity to seize Korryla, Forlia, Nasse, and Mistress Leia. So I gave her twenty four hours to do so. No one is supposed to be killed but they are supposed to be brought to me.”

“I see and you just now feel the need to tell me this now?”

Dalus shook his head “Nay my friend you know damn well you two don’t get along for shit. So I gave her the chance to do this,”

Eric nodded “Aye don’t stress about it.”

So he did have a problem with this but that doesn’t mean that he was not going to give her a chance to get this done or try to do this. Shaking his head softly he rose to his feet and walked towards the window before speaking.

“So do you think she will come back with them?”

Dalus shrugged as he watched Eric “Really don’t know but she has a real grudge against the Mistress.”

Eric turned and looked back at him “Oh really and what exact kind of grudge is she holding?”

Dalus grinned “Well you see Sikta has never been beaten in a fight before, never lost and always fought to the death. But when the Mistress should up on her doorstep it was the first battle she had lost. The first time Sikta had died and the first time she had to go through the torment of coming back.”

Eric arched slightly “Come back? Die? You mean go to Hell right?”

Dalus nodded “I mean exactly that, Sikta was killed by the Mistress in a battle that lasted about twenty four hours and stormed just as bad as it is now. But anyways she died that night and I buried her the next morning. A week later she showed up on my doorstep in grave pain, but after that she decided that she would make sure she would have her chance again with that woman.”

There was a moment of silence between them both before Dalus went on. “You see Sikta came from the pits of hell, you can kill her, burn her body but it will always send her back to Hell. But the on thing that no one knows is that in order to rid the world of her when she dies her soul and body must be blest so she can return to heaven.”

“What? What do you mean return?” Eric just kind of stare at him somewhat of disbelief.

Dalus just sat there with the grin still playing on his lips “I mean exactly sounds like.”

“Hmm, interesting.”

At that moment the front door opened and there stood Sikta standing in the door step soaking wet. “Is it alright if me and my guest come in?”

Dalus and Eric both turned around quickly to look at her as Dalus nodded with a gentle smile playing over his lips “Of course you can my dear.”

With that Sikta stepped into the room with Nasse, Mistress Leia, and Korryla who was than followed in by all of Sikta’s fifteen men. Dalus rose to his feet as his smile only grew.

“Well my dear have truly surprised me tonight. This is really something Sikta and you still had a few hours to spare.”

Sikta just smirked “I see you had doubts about this?”

Eric arched a brow “Where is Forlia?”

Korryla snapped “Well mister genius if she is not here and Nathanal’s not here where the fuck do you think she is at?!”

Dalus just chuckled “Such hostility, you poor thing. Oh well at least your still alive.”

Korryla’s arms flared slightly as she let out soft scream and everyone turned around to look at her in shock. Sweat slowly began to break at upon her forehead. Again she let out another soft scream as her arms seemed to have tried to flare up again. She collapsed to her knees as she grabbed her head as a voice echoed out around them.

”Release me Sikta. Release me at once!! If you don’t you know what you are bidding yourself to. I give you the chance in which the others will not get.”

Sikta just stood staring at Korryla in disbelief well they all were. Again the voice echoed throughout the room.

”Sikta release me, do this and I will spare you.”

“Shut up!!” Sikta shouted.

[I]”Sikta I know your secret, your dark secret in which no one really knows. The one in which can kill you and make sure you never come back!”[/I}

Sikta gasped softly as she ran quickly over to Korryla and pulled out a gun and slammed it into the back of Korryla’s head. Korryla grunted softly as she collapsed to the ground Sikta jerked her head up towards Dalus “Get them locked up now so we can talk!!” With that she stormed out of the room. Dalus nodded to her men as he told them to take the three of them downstairs to the cellar.

Eric and Dalus both walked out of the room as they found Sikta staring out into the darkness. How could it be? Who was that voice that was speaking when Korryla’s mouth was not even moving? Her secret, how can anyone know about that? For the only person that truly knew about that was Dalus. He wouldn’t tell Korryla something like that for the both of them were on the same side. She shook her head softly as she sigh “Look Eric I know that you want to take care of Korryla yourself but she needs to die and awfully fast.”

Dalus nodded “I agree with her as well.”

Eric nodded “As do I what do you have in mind?”

Sikta grinned evilly as she kept her eyes intently on the darkness that was still lingering outside. “Call upon ever dark creature and let them know. Have them all come here to watch her hang.”

Dalus chuckled “I like that idea.”

Eric nodded “Sounds fair enough arrange it and we will stay here to ensure they don’t get out and we will hold the process at night so everyone can be there.”

Sikta and Dalus both nodded in agreement.
