Metals breathing began to stabilize, the soft glow of the heat of his chains died out...slowly he rose to his feet. His stringy white locks fell down in front of his face...a deep huff followed by a growl left his chest, ejecting from his mouth. His eye's flashed opened leaving him staring down the hall way through his eye lashes at the back of some guards. They had not yet noticed the two. Slowly Metal started to wind the chains around his thin, but very strong hands. His glare remained on the back of a guard. The sound of the dragging chains began to make vampyres notice.
Linia was in her true form something to which when seen by the vampyres made them freeze in confusion. Their eye's went from Metal, angry faces, mouths popping open like a bunch of fish to retort, yell, demand, to snapping shut. Eye's drifted over to the terrestrial and a blankness over took them.
< I was thinking I would stay for the party...dance a little? > Linia said to Metal, her tone was laden with mischievous undertones. A dangerous thing.
Where lips ought to be there lay smoothness. That was until a crack that began to split wider and wider appeared, black flesh that was smooth and somewhat wet looking, peeled back. It revealed a razor blade cage for teeth. This caused the vampyres faces to wretch in a twitch of disgust before giving out a war cry and charging forwards at them.
The scene felt very much like a slow motion action scene for Linia and that was partial because she slowed it down with her strange eye's, eye's that had sonar built into them along with a few other things. She had to in order to witness the sheer power and speed that backed Metals current anger. His foot at stepped forwards as well, the beginning of his own lunge. Linia jumped up from behind metal into the air having pushed up off her own foot. Metals right hand cranked back his opponents head shot upwards to look at metal as he just noticed the movement. It was too late. Metal sent his chained fist down into the skull of the vampyre spattering brain matter to the wall. From linia's chest, burst tendrils of black inky symbiote. It struck out and wrapped around the chests and arms of four vampyres. Linia's form pulsed forwards disappearing for a moment. When she reappeared behind the vampyres she was covered in blood. The vampyres bore gaping holes in their chests...Linia released them allowing their carcasses to hit the floor.
More guards flooded through. Metal let some of his chains unravel on both arms flinging it out for two vampires. They coiled around their throats. Sending ice down the length it reached the vampyres in no time putting them into a deep solid freeze. Wretching his right arm back it snapped the head of that vampyre off. The same right hand balled into a fist and planted its self into the gut of the frozen vamp shattering him to pieces. His left hand yanked back simultaneous to his
Scorpion kick 0:32 which also shattered the other once animated vampyre. As more vampires flooded in Metal went to work with moves that Linia only knew as martial arts because she had seen Oni move in similar ways. All Linia knew was how to mutilate. To eat. As they mowed down vampyre after vampyre Linia let them fall through her symbiote letting them pile up in the Shadow zone never to be found. Just eaten. They cleared the hall in less than 10 minutes. Linia let her head dip back letting her mouth open in a primal scream of rage! It felt soooo good to unleash like this! It was victory. It was pleasant. Oh if only she had a reason to conquer worlds she would make quite the accomplice for Metal. She looked to him.
< Time to go >
"My sword..."
Linia shook her head.
< Onyx has it with her. She gathered everything when she and the others left here. Time to go. >
"...Well I am not leaving until I find Marcus. I have something for him...Take me to the top of this tower...tonight...someone's moving up in the ranks."
Linia would heed his request. Grabbing him she did take him to the top of the tower. The events, the details to what was said, to what he did to the vampyre Marcus is with Metal. Linia was busy getting into her loot bag of vampyres while he took care of business. And when Metal was finished with Marcus he went for the current leader next. That night Metal ended the family reign of the Amourie clan. The next to take the thrown...would be left to Cillian. Cillian Sangria. At his word, Linia would transport them back aboard the deck of the Asper. She went back to the shadow zone leaving Metal free to do what he pleased on the open sea. When Linia was done her feeding she nestled herself high up in the crows nest coiling like the most ugliest dog you would ever see.
