Apsenniel had wandered away from the party after everyone had left. So much for that idea. She frowned, pouting to herself. Why couldn't anything she planned go right? This time, though, it wasn't her fault. That strange Melanee had tried to hurt Lucee. Then, Lucee wanted to kill her. Terrible sign, that was. Ape hoped it didn't have a deeper meaning, and she didn't wish to ponder on it any further. Melanee had a place with the Immortals now, whether she wanted it or not. So far, only Ape knew she would be saving Lucee's life at some point. And Lucee and Melanee couldn't know, or it may change the events to happen. Anything really, could change the events. The less people who knew of her vision's details, the better.
For now, it was best to make friends with Lucee's sister. Apsenniel figured she must be scared down in that torture chamber, cold maybe, hungry? Best to hit all the bases, Ape decided. Stopping in the supply closet for the Hall of Ceremony, she made a point to grab several easy-open containers of food, chips, water bottles, and a blanket. That should be enough for now. Gaining the child's trust was number one priority at this point, even if it was just Apsenniel's trust. Her arms loaded, Apsenniel exited the closet and kicked the door closed, struggling to carry all of her items. Peering down both ends of the hall, Ape caught a head of hair bobbing, and yelled down at her, "Hey! Can you come give me a hand with this?"

Quinn had left Matteo's room, hoping he would get some sleep. She had been looking to find Rion when she got turned around in this large building. There were so many halls and rooms, and floors...Sighing Quinn was just about to give up. That was until she heard someone calling down the hall from her. Pausing in her step, Quinn turned around and made her way carefully back down the hall to where she had heard the voice. For several seconds Quinn observed the unfamiliar woman, watching her struggle with various items tucked away in her arms. Figuring the woman would be no harm to Quinn, she finally walked up to the woman, taking several items from her and tucking them behind her arm. After taking a couple of the crackling bags, Quinn pulled one of them that had been tucked behind her arm and observed it. "Chips." Quinn muttered to herself as she observed the loud, obnoxious bag with bright colored images on it. Was this the treat of choice today? Who would ever want to consume treats from such a noisy container? Smirking faintly, Quinn then tucked the bag of chips back behind her arm.
Looking back to the woman, Quinn gave a slight nod towards her as she awaited the woman to speak. This entire situation was topsy-turvy. Quinn was just lucky enough to know most of the individuals intentions. Looking down at the bag, Quinn listened to them annoyingly rustle against one another before looking back at the small woman. "I don't think we have met...I am Quinn. I was invited by Rion to accompany the Immortals after some minor confusion on Promise Island. Perchance, do you know where I would find this Rion figure?" Quinn would help the woman out in the task, she could tell from her thoughts she was frustrated, yet also confident about something. Though Quinn was curious, she figured she wouldn't poke for information that may just come out naturally...After all, Quinn was almost certain she knew where these obnoxious snacks were going.
Apsenniel gave a small sigh of relief as the woman took some of the load off her hands. A pe raised an eyebrow at her reaction to the chips, as if she'd never seen them before. Though, one never knew. "Hi Quinn, I'm Apsenniel. Friends call me Ape for short." She began making her way down the hall and towards the torture chamber, looking over her shoulder at Quinn's prying about Rion. "Um, yeah I know him. Had my wing broken, pushed me out of a plane.. but don't get me wrong, great guy." She face back towards the front and rolled her eyes. "He'll probably be down in the chamber if he didn't go anywhere, but not sure." Continuing down another hall that led to the torture chamber, Apsenniel curiously eyed the seal drawn near the door. Hmm. Rion or Reast must have left it there. Couldn't be harmful, could it? They'd had to have known Melanee would be getting visitors.
Only one way to find out, Ape decided, stepping over the seal and into the torture chamber. She didn't get stuck or burst into flames, so all good. She didn't bother to check if Quinn followed her into the room and made her way to one of the torture table contraptions and dropped the supplies she brought down on it. "There we go.. Melanee?" Ape asked aloud, scouring the room for the child.

Rion felt the door open a second time, he was mistaken, it wasn't four people in the room, but five. He didn't have time to use his feet for transportation and so, he used the shadows and appeared directly in front of the girl and watched everyone in the room, "There was a seal on the door for a reason, at least close the door if you're going to be in here." He stepped away from the girl and towards the newly formed group. Kyson, two twins which he had never met, and then Ape and Quinn. He looked at Quinn and couldn't help but smile softly, losing himself in her. He quickly shook his head and looked to Ape and saw that they had brought the girl food. He nodded towards her to go to Melanee. "Kyson, who are these boys?" He moved his eyes from him quickly to the twins and stared through them, trying to see what they were, if there was anything to give way to what it was that they were. Their powers were radiating from them it seemed, they were strong, young though and untrained in using all of their abilities. That was all that he could read them for.
He looked back to Quinn without thinking and approached her with a smile, "Thanks for comforting Matteo. He seems to enjoy your company. As do I actually..He was right, there is something calming about you." He looked at her with the softest look in his eyes and he truly did feel calmed. It wasn't often that he felt this type of emotion, but that was the problem, emotions... and it all came back to him.
The sky was dark, he was surrounded by bodies, countless bodies. He wasn't in control, Hollow was. He was in the process of turning back, the process of gaining control once more. Blood dripped from the corners of his mouth and from his hands. A hole in his chest gave way to where Hollow must have torn the heart out to increase his powers. Then, Rion realized the bodies were not that of humans, they were the bodies of Hollows. His Hollow had slaughtered all of his kind.
Rion closed his eyes and clenched his jaw, coming back to reality, forcing his emotions away, "I.....I'm sorry, what were you saying?"
Last Edit: Feb 1, 2016 23:01:06 GMT -5 by Rion Diamond
Kyson's eyes softened once he saw that it wasn't Rion or Reast coming through the door, and then he heard his voice and his eyes widened, "Shit.." He turned on his heels and smiled, running his hand through his hair with a smile, "Uh.. yeah, these guys are uh.. ex hunters, Kitsune.. Caleb..Callum.. We fought them when uh... We may have been destroying a hunter's base!" He backed up away from Rion as he got closer, he was always so intimidating. Then he realized that he didn't seem to care that they were there and his heart slowed a bit, maybe he was safe now. Then, Kyson's eyes turned to the girl he was approaching, "Fuck..." He muttered, that's the girl that escaped, he thought.

Caleb watched as all of the new people came in and eyes his brother to keep him calm and to warn him not to attack. The two woman who came in, they were..different, Caleb had thought, but the man, was...well, Kyson seemed to be afraid of him. If the Trickster was intimidated by somebody, there must have been a reason behind it. Caleb then realized who it was, Rion, He was Guilty and he looked at Callum and nodded, Rion would die, not yet, but he would. The twins had judged him. They found that he was guilty.
Caleb stepped forward and nodded towards Rion, "I'm Caleb, he's Callum." Callum stepped up next to his brother with a sly grin, "Yeah, we're Kitsune. I'm the Thunder and my little bro here is Ocean. Whether you know what that means or not don't matter to me! Just know we'll electrify ya!" Caleb looked at his brother with an annoyed look and pushed him, "Shut up you idiot..." He looked back towards rion and shook his head, "Sorry about him... like i said, he's an idiot. I'm the brain, he's the brawn."

Looking back at the door she had left open, Quinn was about to respond when her eyes fixated on him. Rion..The one who had welcomed her here...the one Matteo spoke so highly of..and the one she had sought out to speak to. Rion. A small smile fell upon her lips as kept her eyes locked on him. There were others in the room, and chips still tucked in her arms but it all seemed to fade away as Quinn watched him. There were so many things about this man that fascinated Quinn...He was such a mystery to her. Even the feelings he sent into the air changed from moment to moment. Almost in such a fast pace that Quinn couldn't keep up. The only individual ever Quinn wasn't able to keep up with... But now, here he was...Inches from her. It was a happenstance...something so coincidental, that it could have been planned...yet it wasn't...Was it? Taking a deep breath, Quinn looked down for a moment to regain her composure, to focus her thoughts. She then finally looked back up at him. "Matteo is effervescent child, you did well with him.. He just needed some reassuring."
In that instant it was as if the pressure in the room changed. It felt as though a rock had dropped into her stomach, and like electricity had sent her heart pounding. The smile that was once worn carefully on her face now slowly disappeared as her eyes widened. What Rion was feeling...remembering..it wasn't exactly guilt ...yet it wasn't innocence. Pain. A suffocating, needlelike pain....A pain that Quinn had only heard of in stories. A pain that had put Rion into a slight daze. Taking a step closer, Quinn dropped the bags of chips that had been tucked in her arms and brought her hands barely to Rions face as she watched him. No matter how little she knew him, no matter what her initial obligation was...she wasn't going to let him feel this pain alone. Nobody should ever have to feel this pain alone. Despite what she was created for, she was also made to be a guardian. And that's all Quinn could do to reassure herself that she was doing the right thing. "Shh, look at me" Quinn whispered in a calm tone. Her eyes were obviously filled with worry as she tried to pull him from these memories. The pain he felt filled her...the pain..the confusion..."Shhh" Quinn whispered softly again.
Once it seemed as though he was coming to, Quinn dropped her hands carefully back to her side. Her eyes remained focused on him for a few more seconds as she shook her head. Her heart still beating louder than usual, but slowly finding it's way back to normal pace. When he spoke once more...Quinn finally came back to reality herself. Looking around quickly, Quinn knelt down to pick up the annoying chip bags she had dropped. "Matteo is a good kid..That's all" She smiled softly towards Rion, though her eyes showed she saw more than he probably expected. Looking down at the chips tucked in her arms, Quinn bit her bottom lip for a second before looking back up at him. "I should probably get these to Apsenniel..." Quinn turned her direction slightly from Rion, but as soon as she did...her eyes narrowed on the other males in the room. Mumbling softly, Quinn couldn't help but sound slightly annoyed. "Trickster." Darting her eyes to the two twins next to him, Quinn walked down the steps and placed the chips down carefully in front of the banshee child. With her eyes still focused on the group, Quinn bit the inside of her cheek before speaking carefully in a mumbled tone towards the trio of boys. "Watch your step."
After a couple seconds of watching the trio, Quinn looked back at Rion, debating what could be said next. The trio in the room set her instincts off...While Rion seemed to center her thoughts. Rion brought out a personality in her..Which seemed odd to Quinn seeing as she was made for duty and not personal experience. Walking back over to Rion, Quinn was a little more careful with her expressions now as she spoke. "Is there any room here for one more? Just for a little bit, of course." Looking around the room for several seconds, Quinn realized how complicated yet interesting things were becoming...This is what Earth was...This is what it was to be neither innocent or guilty.
Post by Melanee Sinclair {Deceased} on Feb 2, 2016 2:47:43 GMT -5
Peeking her eyes open she heard the new voices enter the room and was curious as to who they were. She hadn't met them before but she had seen the two twins picture before, the third was one of the men the Immortals had tak... rescued, Melanee bided with herself. The hunters... they were the ones to blame for this, not the Immortals. The twins were considered high profile among the hunters, their abilities were considered a valuable asset to them. Melanee began to panic on the inside, the voices what they had said earlier, that she had failed and they were coming to get her... was this really them coming to get her...
However they didn't seem too concerned with her at this moment, she could hear more steps coming down the stairs and began to wonder who it could be. Seeing the food in their hands as they entered the room made Mel realize just how hungry she was... how long had she been here. As the hunger set in, so did the other aches in her body, finally catching up with her now that her mind had a moment to rest. The hunger seemed to mix in with the nausea caused by her head, she felt feint, and wasn't sure if that was from the hunger or the amount of blood she had lost from the gash in her forehead. The nausea and lightheadedness were followed by the splitting pain her leg, it might not have been broken, but it was fractured at the least. Finally, the pain from her elbow was setting in, numb along her forearm from whatever nerve damage had been caused. Melanee reached her left hand out to lightly touch the joint, before flinching in pain, she could feel crumbling pieces of bone through her skin.
She let the pain crawl across her skin, settling back to a lull before relaxing her body back up against the wall. She looked out at the others standing in the room, there were six of them now, to no surprise Reast and Lucee were nowhere to be seen amongst the group. Melanee she was slightly thankful for this, she feared what Lucee had to think about her now... it ate at her core. She felt ashamed more than anything, ruining a potentially great bond between the one relative she had left. She watched carefully, not caring to hear necessarily what was being said, even though she couldn't hear much of anything anyway with the constant ringing she heard from her ears. The voices were still there, the room she was in seemed to have amplified them, but she was thankful to have their volumes turned down momentarily.
Fearing the food and water they had brought to the room was for show, another form of torture no doubt Melanee wasn't sure what to do. They all seemed so distracted, yet any move she made could end in her death. She felt alone and afraid. She hoped for mercy in a quick death, but she highly doubted that after her attempts to kill... What she would give for a second chance. Trying to stay quiet Melanee simply sat there and continued to observe the strange events unfolding in front of her when she caught eye contact with the twins. Any color left in her face drained to her stomach, and tiny whimper escaped her lips. Realizing too late that the noise had come out of her mouth, Melanee closed her eyes and threw both hands in front of her face flinching in fear, followed by the sharp pain shooting up her arm. She quickly covered her mouth with the left hand and scream into her palm. Would this madness ever end...
Apsenniel put her hands on her hips as she finally found Melanee. Still hiding and obviously in pain, the poor child was scared to within an inch of her life. Ape chose to plainly ignore Kyson and the Idiot twins, though the tension between Rion and Quinn was almost palpable. Why had the new woman been so interested him? And why was he showing such an interesting soft side towards her? The questions were coming in waves, and the answers in a trickle. Apsenniel grabbed a water bottle, a box of crackers, and a blanket from what she'd brought in, and made her way over to Melanee, pausing to give a pointed look at Rion and Quinn. "Will someone tell me why we locked this kid up and nearly killed her? And why, Lucee of all people, asked me to save her, then demanded she be put to death?" Apsenniel was obviously out of the loop on this turn of events, and needed to be filled in quickly.
Shaking her head, Ape didn't wait for an answer before crouching next to Melanee. "Hey there, I'm Apsenniel. I saved your life today, so you owe me one." She smiled, trying to make a joke. "So, how old are you, exactly?" Ape questioned, cracking open the water bottle and handing it over to Melanee's good hand. She carefully took the other arm in her own hands, studying the injury. "Completely shattered." Ape shook her head, wishing she hadn't become an Imperial Traveler in that moment. Then, maybe she'd have been able to help heal the poor kid. "Rion," She turned her head back to glare at her acquaintance, "You better have something that can heal this girl's arm." Until then, the war skills from her past life were about to come in handy.
Gently setting Melanee's arm down, Apsenniel took the blanket and tore a strip of it off long-ways, before turning back to Melanee. "This is going to hurt." Ape explained, taking the water back so she wouldn't drop it. "You can scream if you'd like, but don't put any powers behind it. It might get ugly if you do." Ape didn't mean this as a warning, just friendly advice to the kid. "Alright.." Once again, Ape gripped the child's arm at the wrist and just below her shoulder, and quickly made the move to bend the joint back to it's natural position. She kept her grip tight so that any of Melanee's movement's wouldn't prohibit further movement during the process, and finally gripped the strip of blanket she'd torn before. Wrapping the elbow several times and continuing down the arm, Apsenniel then passed the cloth over Melanee's opposite shoulder and around her back, tying it off again at the elbow in a make-shift sling.
Nodding at her handy work, Ape looked the girl over again, moving down to the torn area of her pants. Gripping the material, she tore it off around the tear, leaving what was left of the child's dignity intact, and creating a stylish pair of half pants half shorts. Sure, stylish. Frowning, Ape felt down the leg, nodding that she didn't feel any broken bones, but there was significant swelling, perhaps a fracture. Apesenniel tore another strip of the blanket off, tying it around the leg in the same fashion as the elbow. The leg wasn't as much of a concern to her as the elbow, so a simple cast would have to do. Finally now, Ape tore a small piece of cloth from the blanket, pour some of the water bottle's contents on it, and began to work on Melanee's forehead, cleaning away the blood and dirt. Head injuries were each unique in their own way, and it was difficult to tell if it was truly a concussion or just a headache. "Has your head been feeling alright? Anything strange?" Ape questioned, curious. This child was going to save Lucee, and Apsenniel was determined to save her.
Post by Rion Diamond on Feb 2, 2016 20:40:30 GMT -5
Rion smiled softly at Quinn, he was okay. He felt okay. He knew everything would work out..somehow, he had a plan. But then, Ape's snappiness sent him into a spiral of anger and he turned on her, eyes pitch black, the room began to have a sudden bout of heavy winds and he smirked at her but spoke as calmly as ever, "You wanna go? Let's go. You want to threaten me? I'll make you regret your words and make it so you never speak another one. You may have been in charge while Reast and I were....handling our imbalances, but get this; We're back, and I'm not afraid to rip every millimeter of vocal cord from your throat if you ever dare even speak another threat towards me again." He was shaking with anger and clenching his jaw, restraining himself now, restraining his anger, restraining the darkness, restraining the need to slaughter Ape on the spot for even attempting a threat towards him.
He closed his eyes, fighting the darkness back, letting bits of the spirit guide loose to try and keep calm. His eyes turned a blue color, mixing the purple and black to come out with a blue. He shook his head and took a long, deep breath and turned back towards Quinn and grabbed her hands, trying to keep calm, he couldn't let that side of him show to her. He was changed, he was different. He wasn't a killer anymore and he never wanted her to know that he was.
He turned back towards Kyson now, his eyes still glowing blue and he tilted his head, questioningly, "They have ulterior motives for being here. They get out of line, either you kill them, or i'll lock you all into something you won't get out of...Like the damn box you hate so much." He kept swearing under his breath, he had to bite back his harsh words, he couldn't be this person, he didn't want to be this person, and he let out more of the Spirit Guide to take control, to keep calm, to be able to keep himself from slaughtering everyone in the room. He really needed to work on his anger issues still. He had been doing so well, but, then again, nobody had really threatened him in a long time.
Kyson stared at the redhead, his eyes fixed on her as if they were glues to her. She wasn't a Trickster, so it left two things. He wasn't sure which, Addy might know though. He started to walk towards the door to go and get her, and then Rion started freaking out on Ape and he stopped in his tracks, probably not the best time to leave. He turned and looked at Rion, his eyes were different. He had never seen his eyes this color before, and that was scary. It means something new was coming, it meant something scary was coming.
When Rion started talking to him, he looked at the twins and just nodded, he wasn't speaking a word, he wasn't having Rion turn on him. He wasn't going to have that rage focused on him. It wasn't worth it. He closed his eyes and just nodded, what else could he do?
Post by Caleb&Callum Reynard on Feb 2, 2016 21:14:19 GMT -5
The twins both kept their eyes on Rion, enver moving them. Callum stepped forward and smirked, then Caleb put out his arm and stopped his brother and spoke confidently, "Rion, Riond Diamond, the Judges have found you Guilty for reason of Genocide, murder, and bringing back the dead. Your sentence is death." And with that, Caleb moved his hand from his brothers chest and FoxFires of electricity and raging waters came forcefully towards Rion. Then, the slam of a door and footsteps were heard and the twins were out of sight. They needed a plan to take this one down, a plan that couldn't fail. One that was fool proof.
Post by Quinn Tisiphone on Feb 2, 2016 22:15:55 GMT -5
There was a slight fued between Ape, and Rion...And though initially Quinn wanted to interfere, she decided against it...This was the perfect distraction so Quinn could fix things. Focusing her eyes on the banshee, Quinn frowned faintly. The young girl had been previously judged based on the actions others brain washed her into doing. Being brain washed into doing something...Did this truly make her guilty? Thinking back to Matteo...Quinn realized she had misjudged...Maybe not in the beginning, but now with the current state of things.. Sighing softly, Quinn knew she had been rantipole, far too wreckless for her own good. How could she make such a mistake with only being on the planet a few hours now. Shaking her head ever so slightly, Quinn managed to maintain herself. No. She hadn't made a mistake. Quinn made the girl give out information on the hunters, meaning it truly wasn't a complete loss. Hesitating at first, Quinn whispered to herself in such a hushed tone it would be challenging for anyone else to really know what she was saying. "Aposýro". The word was simple, yet with that one simple word, an entire invisible atmosphere that had been surrounding Mel shattered and disappeared. Evaporating into the air like specks of dust. The insanity was lifted. Pressing her lips back together, Quinn redirected her eyes from the banshee girl. The child would have to prove she deserved the second chance now.
It was obvious by the raise of pressure in room that Rion was upset. It felt as though Quinn's body was under the pressure of a giant rock...The air was growing thin...Quickly looking back Quinn flinched slightly as she watched Rion. What was he?? Where did all this anger and torment come from...His eyes..His eyes...This only seemed to make the situation all the more numinous... Coughing softly to catch her breath, Quinn spoke softly. "Rion." By the time she spoke, it seemed he was already on the path of calming down. Closing her eyes she allowed her body to catch up with the pressure change once more. When others felt strong emotions, it was as though Quinn's body had to compensate the emotions.Not understand them as much as feel them similar ways as the host feels them. Anger, Sadness, Confusion...Basorexia...
Once finding herself back in balance, Quinn looked down at their hands that were now in contact. She was so fixated on how his hands felt on hers, that for several seconds she couldn't even look up at him. Brushing her fingers carefully over his skin, she made sure to keep herself calm as he attempted to calm down as well. In this moment, Quinn also took the time to take in each sensation that came with being in contact with someones skin. How diverse the different sensations were. and how they differed from other textures. Quinn paused before looking up at him, still not yet removing her hands from his. This was wrong...these actions, these feelings, wrong. Quinn was in a state of limerence with this man. How could she be so infaturated with someone she had just barely met, someone who was still a complete stranger to her. Rion had been so good to her, even though it seemed by reading others that this wasn't a typical emotion for him. Or that emotions weren't typical in general with Rion. No matter how much she reminded herself that this wasn't her mission, she couldn't let her eyes look away. After taking a deep breath, Quinn finally found the power to pull her hands back away. And it just so happened to be in perfect timing with Rion bringing up the box. The Box.. Of course the Trickster hated the box...But anyone who had ever been locked away in that box hated it. Pandora's Box. Quickly look up at Rion, Quinn gave a soft smile, reassuring him that she did in fact notice their ill-intentions. Acknowledging Rions threat towards the trio trouble makers, Quinn directed her eyes towards them as well. "I don't think we will have too much trouble." Of course she knew better. But she didn't need Rion worrying...Especially if it came down to the Box being opened once again. That box always came with a sacrifice.. With that being said, Quinn was ready to explore the building a little more. Figured she had the time to express some wanderlust of the facility while the others probably slept. It was then she heard one of the twins speak up. She looked back at them, listening to the duos for several seconds before looking down at the ground and then finally back at Rion. "They come off...impish. Rascal-like if you ask me."
A small smirk crossed her lips as she directed her attention back towards the door. Walking towards it, Quinn battled herself within her own mind. There was a part of her that knew she should walk out without saying another word, but then the other half felt the need to say something...anything to Rion. Keeping her eyes focused on the door frame for several seconds, Quinn felt herself stuggle with the true meaning of right and wrong... Pressing her hand up against the door frame, Quinn took a few more steps until she had stepped past through the door way. At the last second though, Quinn felt her entire body pause in what seemed an involuntary movement. Looking back, Quinn looked at the ground for a couple seconds, before softly biting her bottom lip. Slowly she allowed her eye to gaze back up at Rion. "You are probably busy, butI hope to see you around here once more. Thank you Rion."

Melanee was surprised to see the woman who called herself Apsenniel, she was one of the Immortals that had broken into their base to save Kyson. At first she squirmed away from the woman, not saying anything, but fearing her life had finally come to an end. However she soon realized that the woman's intentions were good. Her attention was caught at the mention of her sister, had she really said that she wanted them to kill her... the words felt like needles in her chest. In the short period of time she had known Lucee, that type of behavior seemed unlike her. What had she done...
She was shocked when the woman crouched down to speak with her. She took the water from her and ripped the cap off taking gulps from the bottle before setting it to her side and ripping open the bag of chips. She nodded her head while she stuffed the substance into her mouth, if what she said was true she had indeed saved her life. Melanee felt grateful, she felt incredibly guilty for doing such a terrible thing to one of their own, but in this moment she was thankful for their mercy. Had it been the hunters she wouldn't have lasted so long. Supernaturals were expendable to the hunters, when one failed they just killed them off and brought in new ones to take over their tasks. The Immortals were much more forgiving, even when she had wronged them they were still here offering her aid.
Her voice was hoarse but she did her best to answer Ape's question, clearing her throat before speaking, "I'm 13, it was my birthday a few weeks ago... the hunters, they spoiled me and gave me two whole pieces of bread with my soup for dinner. It was a wonderful feast." She had savored that extra piece of bread, it had meant so much to her. "The hunters told me there was a food shortage due to supernaturals taking farmer hostage, permitting only rations of food each day." To have extra food set aside for her was truly meaningful to her. "I get the feeling that... that's not entirely true now though, is it..." Melanee felt a little embarrassed that she had spoken well of the Hunters, seeing that everything they had told her thus far was a lie..
When Ape reached for her arm, Mel bit her lip, she didn't want to cause the others to be alarmed. Trying her best to hold back the kick in her screams, she turned her head to the side and held tightly onto her lip with her teeth. She didn't want to hurt these people, not anymore. Maybe she was wrong about them... clearly the Hunters hadn't been truthful with her, she didn't deserve this type of kindness after what she had done. Her head... Ape had mentioned feeling things strange, and she had ever since she was brought here. The voices had been flooding her head, but now that she thought about it... they were gone. She looked to Ape tilting her head, "I... I heard voices... they were yelling at me... in that room and when I got out... but now, I think they're gone.." Melanee smiled for the first time since she'd arrived at Immortals, the voices were gone, they were really gone. Filled with glee Melanee reached out to Ape and gave her a hug, an awkward hug due to the inability of her arm but she hoped the gesture was perceived as a thanks.

Rion clenched his jaw and knew what needed to be done. He was beginning to become to out of control. He had to make a few trips to a path of control once more. He looked at Ape, Kyson and the banshee, his eyes glowing blue still and he tilted his head, watching them all, "I...have to go." He dizzily made his way to the door and then shadows took him under their control. His eyes went black and then the pressure on the island thickened. Rion was losing control, and before he lost total control, he left the island. He took to the shadows and made his way back to the underworld.
