 ❦Sloth❦ ❦Walking through life unnoticed, knowing that no one cares❦ She should've incapacitated him completely. Another error on her account. Honestly, how many mistakes could one make in a day? One too many, apparently. She wasn't expecting the male alchemist to send electricity and fire her way. Make that two mistakes too many. She did not flinch from the attack, merely let her fast healing take care of the problem. The sickening smell of burning flesh and hair filled the air as Sloth stepped out from the blaze, her regeneration apparent to any watching and her clothes… well, gone, turned to ashes by the inferno. She was not one to dwell upon embarrassment (or any emotion, really) for long, and sent another wave of hair at Ace. If she had enough energy for emotions, she'd be getting quite annoyed with him right now.❦Too consumed in their masquerade, no one sees her there❦ [[Sorry. I guess I've been doing that as of late. orz]]

 Ace snaps his fingers again as spiked walls appeared all around sloth closing in for the kill except the top but unknown to Sloth it was a trap. "Man it takes a bit to kill you guys...or girls in this case."

 The hint of a smile that graced his lips instantly vanished. "Are you blind, or simply deaf?" he sneered. "Do you not see the stone in my hands? It needs no human sacrifice now. Simply use alchemy and it will take that energy and in return give you access to its power. It matters not what kind of alchemy. Make fire again, grow a flower, erect a stone pillar. Do whatever it is that your body allows you to do that mine cannot." Holding out the stone in his palm, he looked at her with dead eyes. An offering for her to take, he would not set it in her hand. "Sloth. Stop playing around," he told the naked girl. "I have two more for you to activate for me and Sloth once you are satisfied with the activation of this one," he reaffirmed to Ren.

❦Sloth❦ ❦Walking through life unnoticed, knowing that no one cares❦ It was just not her day. She would've just let the walls crush her, but then she had no idea how she would've gotten out. She already knew the opening at the top was a trap; she wasn't dumb, unlike her past reincarnations. Still, she believed Treachery would need her help (especially with this guy).
"Alright." Her voice echoed out of the collum. She jumped straight up, ignoring if the enclosing spikes scratched her body. At the top, she flipped, dropping headfirst towards the earth. Before Sloth hit the ground, she somersaulted, righting herself to land as gracefully as a cat on her feet. Staring at Ace with empty eyes, she said nothing before disappearing from his eye. To the untrained eye, she was invisible; in fact she was moving at her maximum speed, throwing punches and kicks. Her hair added to the fight, acting as a whip and extra hands. Even now, Sloth still had the dead expression on her face. She just wanted him to be still so that she could go back to being a statue.❦Too consumed in their masquerade, no one sees her there❦

Ren shook her head and slowly walked toward the boy. She was walking like a scared animal. She wasn't scared, but nervous, then again it was funny to her because she couldn't feel those emotions. Slowly she reached for the stone. She picked it up and looked at it in her palm. "Anything I want," Ren couldn't believe she was staring at the stone in her hand.
"The legendary stone, the philosopher stone. Those who posses it no longer bound by the laws of equivalent exchange in alchemy. To gain with out sacrifice to create with out exchange. I've looked almost my whole life for it. Now I have it." Ren whispered the line she had heard in her dreams over and over.
This moment was bittersweet for her, she was going to see her brother again, and yet at what cost to everyone else. Well now was the wrong time she grew a conscious. She wouldn't let the death's be in vain she knew that much.

The smile resumed its place on his lips as Treachery watched Ren take the stone into her hand. He gauged her reactions, waiting for her to activate the stone. He knew how tempting the promise of granting any wish could be. It was the very base of human nature to wish, to want what you do not, or cannot have. "Yes, thrilling isn't it?" he asked in a monotone voice.

Ace had focused the electricity around him so that even if sloth was able to land a hit it would hurt her too as Ace saw her coming with every attack blocking and trying to counter at the same time.

"Not yet, but in a moment it will be." Ren watch as she mentally turned the stone into a necklace. Placing it on her neck so she wouldn't lose it. Quickly she took out a knife and cut her finger open. She began to draw a transmutation, not just any though. Satisfied with the turn out of her blood circle Ren looked up at Treachery. "You might want to step back, after all you where pulled from the gate. Like I was, we are more likely to get pulled in." Her voice was cold, and she really didn't care like warning her employer. She got her little prize though, so it was fair.
Clapping her hands she watched the light show happen. Nothing bad was going to happen this time. She would get her brother back. Then it dawned on her, she could get him back. Her first love, back from the days when she trained with his mother. No one though at a time, that's how she messed up the last time. No she would get her wish, she would be able to get her brother back one and for all.

A red sparking appeared along the lines of transmutation. The red amber itself glowed a life of fire within it. Treachery's smile grew. Then an unexpected thing happened. At least to everyone but Treachery. With a final spark, the glow of the transmutations circle faded to nothing. With it the life of the alchemist Ren, her soul sucked into the red amber. The fire red glow of the stone dimmed, but did not go out as the boy reached down to her limp body to retrieve the stone. "Gullible. It is these very same actions that create more of us," he said in a calm, but cold voice. "At least now there will be one less of you to torture us. Have fun at the Gate. It is after all, what you wished for."

Ace notices Ren dissapear but decides not to overeact or do anything as he is preocupied with Sloth at the moment and now has to deal with Treachery "If your name is Sloth than why do you move so fast?" Ace says laughing as he tries to strike her again with random rocks to throw off her concentration to let him get a punch or kick in.

❦Sloth❦ ❦Walking through life unnoticed, knowing that no one cares❦ Electricity coursed through her body, but she didn't bother to stop attacking due to the pain. Her muscles, however, still responded as a human's would, causing her attacks to go haywire. Sometimes her punches would stop just before she landed a punch, and her legs would twitch as she kicked, causing her to go a bit off balanced. However, her hair made up for the handicap her body was causing her to have.
"Just cause." was her reply to Ace's question. In all truth, she didn't know; she'd just been made that way. It was not in her nature to question things. She jumped, flipping to the side as she dodged the stone projectiles. While some of them did hit, she took no notice and her body healed quickly. Shooting out, her hair aimed for him again, this time just barely wrapping around his ankle. With an audible snap, she whipped him across the field and against the wall, standing up shakily after. "Last one." she murmured, quick stepping to return to Treachery's side.❦Too consumed in their masquerade, no one sees her there❦ [[Okay, Auto-hitting again, but sometimes, it's needed in fights to move things along. Just not too much, I'll agree.]]
