he caught what Admin said and glanced over just to see the spear
coming towards him, color seeming to drain from his face a bit
before he shifted his stance, the spear slicing into his shoulder
before sticking halfway through his shoulder, the same side he was
using to try and block Lilith's sword.
an agony filled ell was soon ripped out of him as he gripped at
where the point exited, fighting through the pain as he forced
Lilith back and away before stumbling back himself, swearing up a
storm out of pain.
Lilith quickly regained her balence. Her eyes suddenly turn cold as
she realizes that he is hurt. She slowly moves towards him. Ice
shoots out of her hand. It slams into his hurt shoulder. She moves
closer. Before he knows it she moves the ice sword up against his
throat. "I can kill you right now" she warns. "But I won't unless I
have to. I'm giving you one chance to give up. Tell Suzan to stop
fighting and to not harm anyone. If he dares try to freeze or toss
me this sword will end up in your throat" she threatens
he let out another sharp shout of pain at the ice hitting his
injured shoulder, staggering back before he leaned against the
wall, pressing his head back when she pressed her sword against his
neck.
''you can torture me for all i care.... but i can't just tell him
to stop'' he said rather calmly, staring her down as he stayed
where he stood.
"Why can't you tell him to stop?" She asks. The ice on his shoulder
slowly starts to expand as it slowly works on covering his whole
arm. She glares at him. "A true brother would try to save his
brother" she shakes her head "tsk. Madrix is right. He IS just
using you. I guess I'll just have to kill you" she won't kill him.
Not yet at least. But she hopes the threat can make a good reaction
''you don't have the guts to kill me.... the moment you do Suzan is
going to rip your head clean off those pretty little shoulders of
yours.....'' he growled, a sly smirk forming across his face.
Travis was hoping to buy Suzan some time to try and save him,
knowing that all he could do now was talk his way out of being
killed.
"That's enough" Lilith tells Admin as she shoots another ice chunk
at his shoulder. She hopes she can say anything to change his mind.
She lets out an annoyed sigh. "Why are you to stubborn?" She asks.
"Why are you even like this?" She asks
Travis clenched his teeth as he bit back any pain filled noise that
threatened to escape from being stabbed in the other shoulder than
hit for a second time with ice in the originally injured
shoulder.
he kept the bleeding to a minimum thanks to his blood manipulation,
doing what he could to stay alive even if he was close to being
killed, chuckling as he decided to lay his head back and close his
eyes.
''and why are you such a brat?'' he retorted childishly, rather
amused as if it were a game.
The ice creeps over his hurt shoulder. Intending to limit as much
blood loss as possible. She ignores his comment. She presses the
blade deeper into his skin, causing a tiny droplet of blood to
form. She then releases the pressure. "I should just kill you right
now" she says with irritation. "Do you not understand the reality
of what just happened? You murdered so many innocent lives! And you
hold zero remorse. You wanna know why the Hunters are so intent on
finding me? Because I kill people like you" she shrugs. "To them,
it's still a crime"
he tensed up and hissed softly, annoyed at how she pressed the
sword into his neck before it released, soon looking at her with a
more serious expression.
''of course i do... i honestly thought we were just going to
overthrow the chief and take over the village, but i follow my
brother with whatever he has planned...'' he grumbled, sighing as
he flexed the fingers that weren't pricked.
Travis soon quickly lifted his arm up, ignoring the searing pain in
his newly stabbed shoulder, and grabbed onto the ice blade without
hesitation, pushing it back before lifting it up completely and
bringing Lilith right up against him.
''so a solo hunter...? jeez, i figured your type would've been more
with the hunters instead of being hunted as well... eh, nothing i
can really say about that.... hm, i hope you don't mind i steal
this from ya~'' he said, the last sentense a bit of a purr before
he sneaked a full on kiss on the lips from Lilith before he shoved
her away and released the now bloody sword blade.
he was fully aware she'd be mad, but showed no regrets on doing
what he just did, simply smirking as he stayed put where he was
pinned by only the spear now.
Lilith hit the ground hard. She stares up at him open mouthed with
a bewildered expression. 'Did he really just-?' She gives him a
disgusted look and spits on the ground. "You know. I was beginning
to think there was some normalness somewhere deep inside the pits
of your soul. But it appears you are purely insane" she lets out an
annoyed huff. "You wanna know why I took this job? I took it to get
back at the Hunters who wanna kill me for doing their job. But you
know what? I have a new goal now" she pauses and shakes her head.
Why is she even explaining herself to him? She raises a hand and
the ice on his shoulders starts to cover his arms and work it's way
down his chest. "Suzan can kill me if he wishes. But I am gonna
bring you down with me"
he just simply listened to her ramble on and watched how she
reacted, fairly amused as he let the ice form and laughed.
''oh i take that "purely insane" comment as a compliment! and it's
not my fault on what job description you chose... and death by
freezing, not the worst way to go'' Travis rattled off, not seeming
too worried about his death at the moment now.
"Tch" she turns to glance at the preoccupied Suzan. "Enough of you"
she forms yet another ice sword. "Do me a favor and die quietly so
I can focus on killing your brother" her voice takes on an
unnatural detached tone. The usual emotion in her voice was gone.
She takes two steps towards Suzan glancing at Travis in the corner
of her eye in case he tries to escape her hold
Madrix stepped forward until he was behind Lilith. He didn’t intend
on using it, since it only had one use but... This was the only
shot he had. He quickly unsheathed his knife and jabbed it at
Travis’s head, planning to hopefully bring the blade down his face
and to his neck even if Travis managed to stop him. It was his only
shot at helping, since Lilith seemed to be on the smaller side of
the win scale.
"No good except for rotting huh? Just like you when you die right?"
Poppy questioned, the heat from her anger burned. She wanted to see
him die.

Eve rubbed Maeve's back as she still looked a bit shaken.
Now that Madrix was taking care of Travis; Lilith can take care of
Suzan. "Thanks Madrix" she tells him softly before looking at
Suzan. She quickly remakes the ice wall. After that, Lilith charges
towards Suzan, ready to stab him with the homemade sword. She hopes
he'll be too preoccupied to notice her.
.......
Maeve tenderly touches her neck. She is relieved that she cannot
feel the scar that must be there. She swallows, feeling the urge to
say something but not knowing what. She relaxes slightly under
Eve's comfort
