You wouldn't have come here at all, seeing how uninviting and dark it is, if it weren't for a figure with a torch rapidly escaping away. You follow it, and their figure seems to distort for a moment, no long human, but a creature, both light and shadow-
- And then they turn into the next room and their footsteps stop. They have not noticed you yet, and have pulled out a beautiful green staff - Gawain's staff. They offer it to a black cloaked person in front of them. That person nods, and leaves.
The figure then turns around and it is none other than Mordred. He looks stunned, and then that expression turns into a coy smile. "Come now, you didn't think we would just stay idle forever. It is important for us to keep ah, certain duties, if you know what I speak of."
As he speaks he takes a few steps back. You can tell he is trying to escape. You are the only exit out of the room.
"I really am sorry," continued Mordred, not sorry at all, "but I still have other matters to attend to. So many people need me." A dramatic sigh.
You immediately fall over before you can ask what he means. Mordred has stabbed you. You hear his footsteps escaping quickly behind you.

VERSUS MORDRED
You must make a quick rp post first responding to this prompt. First, roll 1d10. That is how much damage Mordred has done to you (your HP). Your HP has been refreshed from this point onwards. You can pick WHERE Mordred stabs you as in his haste to leave, he wasn't very clean or precise about it. Once you've been ah, stabbed, you don't have to do it again when entering this thread. Now, there are a couple of options to do
gaia_star[ Fighting/Chasing Mordred ] The violet snake is escaping again, and it seems he is fine with baring his poison fangs, just so. You have an opportunity to chase him and attack him. He taunts you as you chase him, hurting your pride more, though you can tell he is getting frustrated he can't shake you. He has 50/50 HP. Please post it in bold red at the top of your post his HP. If he reaches zero HE WILL PASS OUT (wait for a gm post). You can EITHER attack OR defend three times per day. You take 5 auto damage per attack! You take no auto damage if you are defending.
gaia_star[ Defending Mordred ] You can choose to defend Mordred... for REASONS UNKNOWN. Roll your usual attack dice, but mark it as defense. ADD to his HP at the top of the post in BOLD RED. You can EITHER attack OR defend three times per day.
gaia_star[ Questioning Mordred ] Do you really think he will answer you? You can always try, asking questions in bold red in your dialogue!
gaia_star[ You may also stay in this thread ] and RP with each other. Feel free to break off into [ PRP ] to discuss matters. You can also write a solo in your JOURNALS reflecting on what has happened. All of these will count towards gaining another sacred card as long as you post over 300 words!
If you have anything that you'd like to revisit, you can come back here too!

Honestly, he thought that maybe it was one of the other knights, running in search of a way out. Yuki hadn't checked to see if Jason or Riley had followed, and his focus at the moment was trying to catch up to the person ahead to suggest they keep to groups. For safety.
Because it was just foolish to go running off alone... As he had done.
Nearly faltering when the figure in front of him changed, Yuki blinked as though his eyes were playing tricks on him. Maybe the bump on his head was worse than he thought, or the torchlight and surrounding darkness was playing tricks on his eyes.
The surprise he wasn't expecting was to turn a corner and witness an exchange of Gawain's staff into the hands of a cloaked figure. Not knowing who either of them were, Yuki stood frozen in place and dared not even breathe.
When the man who'd handed over the staff turned, his face coming into view to reveal his identity, Yuki realized that he'd just witnessed something he most likely shouldn't have.
Mordred smiled, and Yuki tensed. The white knight narrowed his eyes, trying not to betray his concern of being face to face with the Great Knight. With the way that everything was going, with what he just witnessed, trusting any of the so-called Great Knights was not high on his priority list.
Barely invested in listening to the man talk, more interested in staying alive, Yuki moved when Mordred did. He wanted to keep distance between them, but sought to block his way from escaping back down the corridor and toward the friends that may have been not far behind.
The apology sounded just as fake as it was, and Yuki was slowly reaching for Darius when a sharp pain ripped into his side. Crying out, he crumpled forward, clutching the wound as his chained tonfa clattered noisily against the stone floor.

Uru could have gone the path he believed to have led him out, but he found that if there were secrets that the castle held, he wanted to find them. He hated having secrets. It was when he noticed a light diminishing into one of the corridors. He had called out to see if it were another knight but it did not respond. His first thught it was a guard from the castle who had stumbled upon their passage and was reporting back to the Great Knights. He gave chase.
A man greeting another, and the presence of Sir Gawain's staff angers him further. He may have been mad, but he was a Great Knight and that was his weapon. Uru lunged forth before he was stabbed as the b*****d escaped him.

Shun quietly made his way through the darkness, trying to see where this corridor lead. When he saw the torch fleeing further ahead, he picked up his pace to try and tail whatever it was. That staff. He recognized it. And soon, he recognized the one who had taken it. Narrowing his eyes, his hands clenched into fists.
Mordred looked like he was trying to get out. But he and the others were in the way.
Then, all of the sudden, he felt a sharp pain in his chest. He recoiled and staggered back. Pressing a hand to the source, he could feel some warmth oozing out between two of his ribs. It wasn't deep. It wasn't fatal.

"Mordred, you treacherous b*****d," Shun hissed as he turned sharply towards the fleeing man. If he wasn't happy with the Violet Great Knight before, he was fairly pissed now. Without a second's thought, he drew his katar to his hands and started to give chase. The wound that the great knight had inflicted upon him stung, but he did not let that slow him down.
"What do you gain from causing all of this madness? And how the hell did you get out of that casket?" he demanded as he moved in to strike.
He wasn't trying to kill the man. Not yet, no. But he needed the Great Knight to not be running away like a coward right now. And he was willing to play rough to stop him.

[ NA'IMA ENTERING ]
There he was. Mordred. How he got out the casket she had no idea, but then she had never truly seen him in the casket, simply been told it was him. He was certainly sketchy enough to be Morgana's 'unforgiving son'. She felt a pain in her side as Mordred came close and she gasped, doubling over a moment with a hiss of pain. What the hell? She brought her hand back to check it, noting the blood on her palm. He had stabbed her in the side but it looked to be just a graze, but enough of one to cut flesh and sting. Thanks, Mordred.

((Wrath Enter))
The hallway was dark, foreboding, and yet Wrath seemed strangely drawn towards that darkness, as if the danger that exuded from its depths was like an addiction to him. He followed Na'ima close while struggling to see, all while listening for signs of any threat.
And then, two shadows, and a voice. Wrath frowned and stepped forward, but the figure, Mordred, he realized now, came rushing towards him, pushing past first Na'ima, then himself.
Pain. It barely registered at first but then, suddenly, there it was, a sharp pain that made him wince and bend slightly doubled, his glance going to Na to see that she was affected the same. Stabbed. Mordred had stabbed them both.
Mordred had stabbed Na'ima.
Rage began to boil up within the large man, and Wrath saw red, as, howling with anger, he took off after the violet serpent.

MORDRED HP: 40
He tried to run, and already there were others on his trail. "Who was that you gave Gawain's staff?" She called out as she also chased after him. She would just ignore the cut, it was fine. She wouldn't bleed out or anything of the sort, she just liked this dress. Ah well.
She lashed out, aiming low in an attempt to hook the blade of her halberd around one of Mordred's feet and trip him. It wasn't terribly effective.

The pain was agonizing, and it easily caused someone as small as Thackery to crumple, but when he turned his eyes up to Mordred again, they didn't hold any pain. He understood. An accident, that's all. This wasn't meant for him! His Prince was just frightened, and he would have been too - he didn't want him to end up in a casket, and thought the Prince probably wouldn't want that either. Right? Yes, yes, probably right. He didn't seem to like it in the vision that didn't make much sense to him now, aside from the inclusion of Mordred itself.
He had to help him. He had to save him. He just had one more chance to not fail his Prince, and this would have to be it.

"I need you!" Thackery cried, wincing as he forced himself to stand. His eyes stung with tears at the thought of losing him again, of never ever getting to see his beautiful perfect face and body and entire self ever, ever again.
It was unbearable.
"Take me with youuuu, I'll help I'll be good! I'll keep them all away!" Wide-eyed and horrified at the sight of those who sought to harm him, he ran back and forth in a panic. "You gotta gooo, pleaseeee Prince pleeease, faster! Use magic whisper stuff! Pleeeease hurry!"

Chel paced behind Shun and Estel, following them from the corridor of fire. The claymore had long since come off her back- the sound of fighting her alerted her that her weapon needed to be out and ready.
When she arrived, she received the back end of another's swing. It barely grazed her and it had lost it's momentum but it was still there.
"What's going on?" she called to the ground, confused and alarmed by the action. She was already coiling to strike Mordred in retaliation, but she wanted some information first.

"Take me with youuuu, I'll help I'll be good! I'll keep them all away!"
"Then prove it," whispered a voice, both close and far away. It sounded like Mordred but it was also unearthly, far from human. "Prove that you are loyal. Show me."

"What are you doing? Are you mad?" Shun asked the knight that clung to Mordred.
"He is a traitor!", he added, before glancing back as he heard a scream from behind. Estel and Chel were in this hall as well.
"Get up you two, and help me bring Mordred down. He is the one responsible for us being sent into the dungeons. Not Galahad. I heard him speaking with the other Knight, seeding paranoia into his heart," he hissed, "Also, he is supposed to be dead right now."
It hadn't quite occured to him that the vision he saw could potentially be of what was to come, rather than what had already transpired. With a shake of his head, he turned back towards Mordred, then rushed forward to close the gap between himself and the other man, aiming to drive his blade into his back.
