Beelzenef dragged himself to his feet and climbed onto the back of his companion.

"Ymm vunlac, nadnayd! rayt du dra vundnacc!" The goblin warlord declared

*All goblins who had been fighting (or attempting to fight) heard the orders and followed*

*watches as the goblins make haste to flee*

Well they sure took of then eh?

*looks at everyone still on edge*

Oi! Food then? Even got some fish fer that cat. S'abit cold out. Wouldn't hurt tuh warm up a bit around the fire some ya?

Well that may have been a bit of an over kill. S'pose what's done is done..

*gets up and uses the nodachi to take a few whacks at nearby trees then kicks them away from the area the food is cooking so that they they won't ruin the meal.*

Thera had managed to climb a tree...though it took her a bit of time to figure out how to do it..the cuts on her hands could attest to her climbing ability. She looked at Reikai, and smiled nervously.
"Yes, I am aware that I have wings, and could have flown up here." Thera spoke to the bird.

He turned, disgusted by his opponent's cowardice.

He then placed his demonic hand over Zerron's face, cutting off the flames and forcing them to explode at point blank range. As Zerron lay stunned, he then lifted Zerron from the ground by his throat, black flames tearing at the man, and began to squeeze, taking delight in his kill, ignoring the cat that could not harm him if it tried...

*Back at the goblins underground base*

Due to the burns he sustained from Ty in the last fight Beelzenef was being seen by the healing goblins. As the goblin elders approached he said "Vun huf, fa femm vulic uh muudehk yht bmihtanehk. E crymm dyga ib so najahka fedr dra Panther girl yht ran vneahtc mydan"

The Elders nodded and slouched off somewhere

He looked at her, still choking the life out of Zerron.
Then black flames burst into existence in front of her, driving her back, preventing her from interfering.
He then just squeezed harder, ignoring her completely...

He didn't waste time with repartee or an insult. Instead, he simply raised his other hand, took Zerron's arm, moved it gently away from his face as his black flames encased Zerron's harmlessly - then threw him aside like a ragdoll, sending him rolling across the ground before slumping against the nearest tree.
He looked at her again.

Then words, cruel, black dark words, came bubbling up from inside him. He instinctively tried to stop them, but out they came.

"I died... I died, and you left me. You said you'd love me, always love me. But I died, wanting to hold your hand, and you weren't there. You failed me when I needed you the most. You're pathetic - I've done so much for you, made you happy, fought for you, died for you. But the one time I truly needed you and you left me to die in the dirt."

His eyes narrowed. "You make me sick to think I once loved a deceitful uncaring wretch. You used me for your own ends, made me love you. Well, now I see you for the lying traitorous freak you really are."

Something inside him balked at saying these things, but he couldn't stop his mouth, something else was in control.

"You've made it very clear that you didn't love me. Not the way I loved you. So perhaps I'll start hurting you."

He took a step towards her, and flames surged around him and her, cutting off her escape.
"I wonder how long you can scream for... lie to me before you finally crumble into cinders..."

Oi now I think this forest has seen enough flames ya? I said there was food on here. Knock off yer games and stuff and eatchur fill. You lot are going to give me indigestion...

*walks over and holds a deer shank in Ty's face*

See? Food.

*Shoves it into his empty hand before pulling out a flask with magical symbols on it and taking a long swig then starts limping back to the rest of the food with a humph ande a grunt*

Zerron got up and heard what ty was saying.
"listen to yourself, you never wanted trinity harmed. your... your minds corrupted by someone, something and If I have to fight it out of you, then I will!" he took his dagger out and charged it with white and blue flames.
" you always cared for her and you distroyed a whole city to protect her, just like you did with that demon! Listen to her!" why am I saying things like that?
Because of me. [/i]
can I use you then?
Sure, why not. might be able to shock some sense into his mind.

Zerron put his knife away and pulled out seans dagger as he jumped into what was left of the trees above, waiting to make his next move.

He threw away the lamb shank, a bit confused if he was honest.

Then he started moving closer and closer to her, his face locked in a murderous scowl, ignoring Zerron completely.
"Do you honestly think that that's all it will take? A mere apology? I tried to come back but you left me no choice - I CAME BACK FROM THE DEAD FOR YOU!!"
His voice suddenly thundered, and the black flames roared around him.

"I BROKE THE LAWS OF THE UNIVERSE FOR YOU! And you couldn't even bring yourself to tell him no, to fight him off, to balk and fight and scream at the very idea of leaving me. You just went along with it. Pathetic."

He was now almost close enough to touch her, and his deathly expression had not changed one iota.

"What was I to you? Some pawn you could drop, some toy you could throw aside? You took from me, everything. I gave you everything, never even so much as thought twice about it, and do I need to remind you of what happened in Darmaku'ul?"
He shook his head in disgust, and his voice went deadly quiet.
"I did nothing but love you. And you. Have done nothing. But use me. I was nothing to you."
He was now so close he could touch her, and he did, stroking her face.

Then he drew his hand back, ready to tear her head off.
"So now, you're nothing to me..."

the damned fool, I'll kill the lowlife that did this to his mind, I swear it!
he positioned the knife just as the voice said.

thats perfect. but that may not work right now. get ready to save her, I'll give you a speed boost.

Speed boost? okay it better work and I hate you for making me do this....what are you some kind of angel?
he got himself ready for a rescue.
Of sorts, now get ready and good luck.

*Takes off his coat and sighs watching the tension. Mumbling*

...... waisting that shank... wanker...

Zerron held on to the branch, ready to launch himself towards ty and trinity.
This idea of yours better work,
Of course it will. we're ninja, remember? just shut it and focus.

It would be so easy.

He stood there, her completely and utterly at his mercy. A thought would be all it took.
The shadows swirled within him. A life, taken, cast into the void.
But...
His fist shot forward -

And stopped, quivering, inches from her skin.
He frowned, and did it again, and again, aiming for her head, her chest, her ribs.
But he just couldn't touch her, couldn't hit her, wouldn't hit her, would never hit her -

The black flames roared in disapproval, and he stared at his fist, then up at Trinity, looking in her eyes.
And somewhere in his own eyes, something screamed for him to stop, and made him take a step back before the something was consumed by shadows.

He looked at her - and it seemed there were two voices he couldn't control. And the other one, the one who hadn't had the chance to speak, managed to say quietly, "How could you think I'd ever hate you, Trinity? I... I love you..."

Then he let out a growl of annoyance, the voice vanished into the dark once more, and he decided to simply burn her alive, summoning flames into his hands to release at her... if he couldn't kill her, he'd make her suffer at least...

*Walks past Trinity pausing to drape his overcoat on her. Shortly glancing at Ty.* Ere ya go girly. Cover up good or you will catch your death out in this snow...
*Stands under the tree Zerron is in.*

A wave of blue energy went into Zerrons body as he let go of the branch, launching himself at trinity as fast as he could.
Grab a hold of her and tightly, I'll take care of the rest.
he grabbed trinity in his arms and held her tightly like he was told. okay now what...

just at that moment, the dagger flashed and they where outside of the forest, looking towards the flames of where they where, on the horizon.
so thats how he gets around so quickly...

Tye had jumped off of Sirion's back, and and walked forward, the only thing in sight was the vast forest. Tye thought that he could handle the treacherous depths of the forest so he walked into it. being enveloped by the darkness he started to get slightly scared, with a slight disturbance. in his own neck he was anxious, entirely scared. he walked deeper into the thick and brush. this was a bad idea for Tye he was entirely terrified.

A Shadowy figure emerged and it slowly made his way towards Tye; Tye wasn't scared of what was coming at him, instead it had a soothing feeling that was surrounding it. as it grabbed onto Tye's leg it slowly broke his composition down, his leg turned into nothing but energy that evaporated into the air. no pain came from it, This shadowy phenomena had engulfed his whole entire body, until Tye was nothing but a figment of imagination, almost non-existent. He was neither alive or dead. Though the minor impact he did leave on everyone will remain. His physical form will not.

Tye had been evaporated to nothingness. He now just "Is" He may not be around with everyone Physically but he lurks in the shadows, and even in the daylight, He is the tug you feel on your shirt when no one is around, or the laugh you hear out in a distance. His love will echo throughout his friends heads.
