Lucian  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Oh I doubt that. What they did to her, there wasn't enough left for a grave." Twice, twice now Ten had spoken as if she knew someone she had never met, Lucian would act harshly if she did it again. She would be able to see him keeping count on his left hand. He had two fingers out and wasn't really trying hide it. "You lack the understanding that if she were here, I wouldn't be this way, I wouldn't do these things." Lucian took a step up towards his throne but stopped and turned to face Ten again. "I would kill it if were not my son's and given what I have heard about you, that must be entirely possible. No wonder your son has so much animosity towards you. He may be unsure you are his mother."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"If you think this has a happy ending, then you haven't been paying attention."

 “Now it sounds like you’re acting like you know me—“ Ten held out 3 fingers to Mock Lucian. Lucian himself had made assumptions about her, and his own son, and Eleven, he can claim he knew them, but really he didn’t, if he did, he would have known Eleven was not on lucian’s side. Lucian failed to know the agreement Ten and Nine had together was Nine’s idea, and in the past hundred years, She had only been with one other man besides her husband, any offspring would no doubt be his.
Ten was going to make a comment, saying how a woman who shined like the sun wouldn’t want her son being treated this way, she didn’t have to know her, if Nine’s mom was as good as Nine and Lucian both claimed her to be, this would be torturous for her. Instead she asked him: “So—What you want is for Nine to side with you? Is that it? To reign beside you? What if he did that, and brought me and your grand children along? Is that the only reason you and him are fighting, is because he is failing to see how he needs to work with you, not against you?”

Lucian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"You know, I feel it is time I teach you an important lesson." Lucian once again restricted Ten's movements as he walked over to her. A meat cleaver appeared in his right hand. "You lack respect, you lack common decency. I haven't the faintest idea how your son turned out so well. Clever enough to fool you and your husband into thinking he would betray me. Tell me, what did he tell you the last time you asked him to betray me?" Lucian looked at the meat cleaver then he looked at Ten's hand. There was a line that should never be crossed and Ten had crossed it, she would suffer for it, or those close to her would. you could only mock a man who fully recognizes his insanity for so long before he cracked. "I don't want him to rule, I don't want him to fight beside me. I want him to survive my conquest. I wanted him somewhere safe, away from the war. Then he escaped. I am a monster, I am insane, and I am no longer the man my wife loved, but the world needs me to be. You will learn that."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"If you think this has a happy ending, then you haven't been paying attention."

He was going to kill her, and she knew that. He didn’t like being challenged, but she didn’t care. she was going to whatever she could to piss Lucian off beyond reason, he just forced images into her husband’s mind, something that would emotionally scar him for his life, and Lucian expected her to be the Numbered woman she should be, quiet, submissive. He could hurt her, but he had just hurt Nine, and for her, she would die with satisfaction, knowing she upset Lucian.
“I’ve never once asked my son to betray you—If serving you makes him happy, that’s all a mother could ever ask. That’s all nine wants, is Eleven to be happy as well.” Ten couldn’t move much, But enough to stroke her husband cheek and kiss his forehead. She could die, knowing she had always been on Nine’s side, even in her darkest hour.

Lucian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"You're not a very good listener. I said I wouldn't kill you or your son because it would hurt him. That has not changed in my madness. But this, won't hurt him." Lucian smiled and within one brief stroke, quick as lightening, he severed the three fingers she had mocked him with and tossed the cleaver aside. "Lesson number one, don't mock a mad man we tend not to take it well." Lucian turned away from Ten and began walking towards his throne "Especially a mad man who can torture and kill your son. Then again, nothing I can do to him would be any worse than what you two have done. However if I restored his emotions first, then I could do worse to him." Lucian shrugged and made his way up the steps of his throne. Before sitting he shook his head slightly as a migraine moved through his skull. He was fine thought and finally sat down again. "Eleven is not happy, your husband made sure of that. On the bright side the boy can vent to me, and he has. It is generally between the lines of his reports but believe me, he keeps few secrets from me. He is my spymaster after all, not yours."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"If you think this has a happy ending, then you haven't been paying attention."

Ten keeps her scream inside as Lucian removed her fingers. Her hand bled as she held it close to her body, covering her clothes, Ten was always a heavy bleeder. But was Lucian telling the truth about Eleven? Ten didn’t keep tabs on eleven enough to know, she kept her distance from him, but did Nine know? Did Nine know this was a possibility?
When Lucian spoke of tormenting Eleven with Emotions, Ten looked up, still holding onto Nine, who she was hoping would come out of his trance soon, she couldn’t help but wonder now. “What would I need to do in order for you to give Eleven back his emotions?” Ten was willing to kill anyone in order to do so, apart of that darkness inside of her still. Even if Lucian didn’t request someone to die, he requested something else, she was willing to do it.

Lucian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"The only way to fix your son, is to damage another. As Nine, he knows Eleven can be fixed, they both do. But neither are willing to pay the price." Lucian shifted his weight and looked at his son who had ceased his shaking. "Nine will be waking soon. When he does, he will be different. Take care of him." With that said Lucian reclined in his throne and sat quietly as his son suddenly began shaking violently. The shaking grew more and more violent as Nine's ankle began to glow, then the glowing faded and Nine opened his eyes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"If you think this has a happy ending, then you haven't been paying attention."

"Damage another? What do you mean?" Did Nine really know how to fix eleven, but lied to her this whole time?
"What did you do to him?" Ten looked up to Lucian regarding Nine.

Nine  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"He showed me everything. That, that shaking, was his death." Nine said as he stood slowly. His body was sore but he was not angry. He understood now, he understood everything his father had done. Lucian said nothing else to either of them. Nine turned and slowly began limping towards the door. The ankle that had begun glowing felt as if it were on fire. When Nine reached the door he stopped and turned to look at Lucian. The numbered son's eyes were watery and he could hardly bring himself to speak. "I am sorry. I am so sorry."

When Nine got up from Ten's arms, it was as if he lifelessly walked away from her. "Nine--" Ten said quietly. Standing up, she followed. she didn't ask why he said what he said, Lucian dying, she followed and would ask questions later.

Nine ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lucian said nothing in response to his son. He just gave a slight nod, then Nine turned and walked out the door. Lucian stopped blocking their powers and Nine was gone, he had returned to the tomb.
(Exit)

 Dameon strolled into the throne room with a smirk upon his face. He had informed deceased soldiers next of kin of their passing and had arranged for their funerals. Only the coffins would be devoid of bodies as Dameon had taken to resupply his undead army, it would have been a waste of resources otherwise. The bodies were still useful and as such should be used until they were no longer able to, true to their oath of fealty to fight until they were released from it or again unable to fight. Thankfully Dameon could reanimate them to continue that fight. It was what they signed up for after all.
"You look downright irritated. Did Abryon ruffle you up that badly? Or did something a bit more entertaining happen while I was out?" Dameon asked with tilt of his head. He had been unable to watch said spar due to his 'punishment'. As if seeing the distraught face would affect him in anyway. He had slain millions of innocents during each time he came to power in this realm.
"Have you gathered any news upon the whereabouts of my estranged wife?" he asked growing serious. "If not then it's fine. She doesn't understand what we are trying to do. Then again, many people don't seem to get the bigger picture, do they?" he chuckled at that. So many people did not understand that to remake the world one must first destroy the current one. It was a concept that he had many times tried to do but with his curse he was unable to fulfill that goal. Then again he had given up upon that goal and simply aimed to eradicate the human race in its entirety. He was only speeding up the inevitable after all. If left to their own devices, humanity would eradicate itself through their endless wars and conflict.
"Perhaps you have something you need me to do? A town you want gone? A man you want dead? Tie up loose ends? There isn't much to do afterall. We have the Doma, we have the Zaibatsu, What else is their to control? Who else is there left to fight? Aside from the few rebels who are no match for any of us."

Penelope returned to the throne room with an unusual expression, or lack there of, spread on her face. Her eyes seemed rather blank and confused and her head was tilted towards the ground. It wasn't the Penny that people had come to known that walked into the throne room. I don't understand. Her thoughts whispered as she approached Daemon and Lucian. Penny was silent for several minutes as her mind wandered aimlessly after mere ghosts of thoughts. " I want to help. I may not be strong, but I want to help." Her quiet sentence was very loud compared to the eerie silence that had over taken her. Penny returned to her thoughts after the statement. Her gaze fixed on the ground as she furrowed her brow a little. A part of Penelope wanted to run away again. She had no idea why she came back. Her mind argued that Ixio loved and supported Valaria but the other part of her was screaming that she would only lose more people she loved.
The blonde locks that framed her face slipped forward to hide the green-blue eyes which had narrowed ever so faintly. " I don't want a baby sitter. I want a mission, a job, something to do that will be productive in the long run." She added before fallign completely silent. The demons that had taken hold in her mind whispering hopes of a mission that sent her up against a beast that would slay her with ease. A shadowy figment of who she was at heart offering some hope but her mind turned away. She was too focused on those who had disappeared from her life at the moment. It was far too hard to look away from that fact. She could only hope whatever came of her rather thoughtless move would help.

Lucian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Abryon did nothing. It is not what any of you could have done. My son came by and forced me to remember things I would rather have forgotten." Lucian spoke in a low tone as he twisted the ring on his finger briefly before reaching up to the one on his chest. His eyes were those of a sad and broken man, not a king, not a conqueror. He blinked the look away and returned his focus to Dameon. "I haven't heard news of your wife, however I find the timing of such events to be peculiar. Your wife vanishes, and my son shows up. In all honesty, he may have answers I lack, but he will make you pay for those answers. He will make you pay dearly if you go to him" Lucian took a brief pause as he adjusted on his throne. He did have a task for Dameon and Penelope. Though it pained him to send someone he considered a child into war, Penelope was not giving him choice, she demanded an assignment, and she would get one. "I require the two of you go to the Doma, kill the usurper Gyokuen. If you time your strike well, you will arrive along with another party seeking Gyokuen's demise."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"If you think this has a happy ending, then you haven't been paying attention."
