 ___ ___ __ _________  ___ ___ "Trust me, I don't pick fights I can't win." Ephraim heard the door to his cell fly open suddenly, and there stood the dungeon mistress, a sadistic smirk on her features. "Ah, it's about time you stopped pussyfooting around here." Ephraim said."Mm... so strong. So handsome! You're perfect. The perfect slave. And Krul said you belong to all of us... Hehehe.... She's so stupid. Letting you be free reign. But I'm going to take advantage." She stepped in, undoing the belt around her short shorts. "Ever since I was assigned to this dreary dungeon, I haven't had any slaves of my own. No fun of my own... But you're about to change that!""I can see why you would have to enslave someone to have fun with them. You're a pretty hideous creature.""What did you say?!" Her smirk was replaced by an angered expression.Ephraim grinned to himself. Unstable emotions? This would be easy. "You heard me. Most women could have all the intercourse they could desire, but you? You have a face only a mother could love.""Shut up! Shut up!! Krul is no better! She's only been intimate with her slaves!""Haha! You're comparing yourself to Krul? That's rich. She's a gorgeous, dominant queen who anyone would kill to be with." He licked his lips. "Mmm.... the whole time you're having your way with me, I'll be thinking of her.""Shut up! Damn you!! Krul is a b***h! A fool! Who put me here for...! Ngh, it doesn't matter!" She drew out a handle, and a whip materialized on the end. "I'll teach you to respect me!" She reared the whip back, lashing Ephraim four times quickly. "Squeal, you pig! Lowly human filth should not talk to me like this!""Heheheh!" Ephraim grinned up at her. "Is that all you've got?! Give me more! MORE!""A masochist, is it? I'll have fun with you...!" The whip suddenly changed matter, turning now into a lava whip, essentially. "Heat like this is usually too much for you weak fools to handle, but let's see how you take it, b***h!" Raising the whip, that sadistic grin returned. "Say it! Say you're my b***h! SAY IT!" She swung the whip down...."Checkmate..." Ephraim muttered, jerking his head to the side. The whip wrapped itself around the chain attached to the brace around Ephraim's neck. It happened so suddenly the dungeon mistress was left shocked, and in only a moment, the chain melted entirely. Ephraim shot to his feet like a bullet. "Let's try that again." He grabbed her by the face, slamming her skull into the bars. She collapsed, unconscious. "No wonder Krul delegated you to this boring task." He stepped out of the cell doors she had so carelessly opened. "Oh." He turned back around, crouching down to take the keys off her. "Thanks, b***h." He muttered to her, before standing and exiting the cell, closing and locking it behind him.
He spun the keys on his index finger while whistling, strolling over to Autumn's cell. "I think it's high time we left this dreary setting, little lady." He said, unlocking the door and opening it. "Now, you wouldn't happen to have any magic that could bring me my lance, do you?" Or escape, perhaps. But where was the fun in that? (( OOC: ))

     While Ephraim was...dealing with his new unpleasant friend, Autumn was keeping as silent and discrete as possible. Had she heard any footsteps, she would pretend to be sleeping and await them out until the silence returned. From there, she would pick right back off where she left. On the floor a distance from her, was a small piece of iron, likely chipped off some how, by the last unfortunate soul in this cell. That tiny piece was her only hope to trying something. And so she had got to work with her magic to capture the piece of iron, it floated into the air with the help of her magic, only to slowly move toward the wall and slowly, quietly, she attempted to keep control of her magic to scrape the piece against the brick wall. Grinding it down into a sharper object..She had at first, thought about shaping it into a key, but that would be hellishly hard to do. Her magic was limited here, and not quite as strong within the Reaper's realm. So, instead, the moment she had it just right, long, sharp, a blood suckers nightmare and quick end, she let it float into her hand, which she closed around it..
It wasn't long after she placed it into her hand, that she would hear the echoing of a cell door closing, followed soon by the sound of ...whistling? Was it one of the Reaper's, trying to act cool??
No. It was....Ephraim, with the keys and looking quite entertained, despite all that had been happening for him. "..Ephraim..your okay....!...And...free..somehow..? " Okay, that part didn't matter. Though she might have to ask him how he managed to escape this one later. "...I would be more then happy to...but, how? They kept going on about how it is impossible to escape, and if no one has come for us, ...well, it makes me wonder if what they say is true.. What if we can't get out of this cursed realm? " She didn't care to be the one without a positive attitude but it was difficult to believe at this point. "..Ah..ha,ha..That ..might be another challenge....Unless they were stupid enough to put your lance here somewhere after they brought you here..There is something I might be able to try, but, it's not discrete and it's almost certain every Reaper would feel the presence of my magic..I think we want to avoid getting overwhelmed with Reapers at this point? The closer we can get the throne room, the better chances I won't have to use such a strong field of magic to locate it.." So, they would have to make it from the dungeons and find their way to the throne room, or at least as close to it as they could get without being spotted.

_______________________"Trust me, I don't pick fights I can't win.""Well, of course I am." Ephraim said nonchalantly. How many times had he said something similar in a similar situation before? He was having some kind of deja vu. "Oh please, Autumn. Do you have no creativity?" "Creativity" was one word for it. "Frankly, all we have to do is force a Reaper to evacuate us from this realm. I vote Krul." Ephraim certainly wasn't one to take a loss sitting down, was he? Then again, he had never REALLY lost a battle before. It bothered him. "...Or someone, at least. Mm, perhaps I shouldn't have been so rough with that one." The poor dungeon mistress that would have a lot of explaining to do once Krul or someone else found her. 'Well, come along then. Stay behind me." Could Ephraim be stealthy? Sure, he COULD. But where was the fun in that?
Leading Autumn through the halls of the realm, Ephraim spoke. "I've been through a bit of this place on a prior visit. I can probably remember my way to the throne room." It wasn't too far away...
Turning a corner, the two were faced with a Reaper. She stopped in her tracks, her eyes widening. "Hey there cutie." He grabbed her by the face, ramming her skull forcefully into the wall now. She collapsed onto the ground, groaning in pain as she was still just barely conscious. "Eh, you'll do." He reached down, grabbing her by the hair and beginning to just... drag her along as he walked. Say what you wanted about his methods, he was certainly efficient.
"Ah, here we are." He walked into the... surprisingly empty throne room. He dropped the girl's hair uncaringly, causing her skull to hit the ground. Poor girl. Then again she was a Reaper. He looked at the throne, where it seemed his spear was leaned against the wall beside it, almost as though it were some trophy. "Heh. Cheeky." He grabbed the spear. Then, he looked down, seeing the broken arm of the throne still on the ground. "Ah, memories." He crouched down, picking it up as well. "This could be useful." He made his way back to the two now, grabbing the Reaper again and dragging her along. "Come along, Autumn."
Taking the two into a small, isolated room, he shut the door behind them, forcing the Reaper into the middle of the room. "What's your name?""...R-Riya...." The Reaper said lowly, glaring at the man now."What a lovely name," Ephraim stepped forward, driving the spear down into her knee, and pinning it to the floor. She began to scream, but he was soon on her, covering her mouth. "If you don't want your pain to become tenfold what it already will be, you won't scream." He said seriously. Tears began to well in her eyes, but she nodded. "So why are there so few Reapers around, Riya?""Th-there's a party going on... in Mathilda's room...! Apparently to celebrate your capture...""Heh." Ephraim grinned. "Ironic, isn't it? Too bad you didn't attend." He grabbed her by the face. "Now, you're going to take us back to Gaia, understand?""B-but... if I do that, Krul will-""If you DON'T do it, what I'll do to you is far worse than what she could manage." His voice was so pleasant and calm as always, it oddly made his intimidation all the more terrifying. "Now, you're going to take us back to Gaia.""N-no... you can't make me....""Hmmm." He forced his gloved hand into her mouth, holding it open. Rearing the arm of the throne back, he slammed it into one of her two fangs harshly. It knocked the fang out of place, and once again he covered a screech that she tried to let out from the sheer pain. "Niki is a smart girl," Ephraim told Autumn. "She told me that one of a Reaper's most sensitive areas is apparently their fangs. Ironic, isn't it?" Since it was also one of their greatest tools. "Come now, Riya. Be a good girl, won't you?""I hope you die."Ephraim sighed, reaching into her mouth and ripping the fang out of place, and covering another scream. Afterwards, Riya was breathing heavily, tears streaming down her face from the utter pain. "Mm, you're better to be rid of it." He said, holding the severed fang up to look at it in the light. "Now, do I need to take the other one too?" He leaned down, his voice becoming low. "Or would you rather I jam this into your eye and use it to rip it out?""Okay! Okay! I'll do what you say! J-just, have mercy....!""Excellent." Ephraim tossed the fang to the side, standing and brushing his hands together, then turning to face Autumn. "Go with the kind girl, Autumn. I have matters to discuss with Krul." Namely about their apparent child, and how he had no intention of allowing it to grow up here. ...Though it might be for the best to escape now, while there was such an opportunity, still...(( OOC: ))

It was no question that Autumn was in a state of being completely uncomfortable. But she wouldn't let it really bother her, what he did to this Reaper was likely very well deserved. It was just to bad it wasn't Krul, she was the one who deserved all of the torture. She just hoped this particular one had done something terrible so she actually did deserve the painful treatment she was getting from one of the most unexpected people she knew. "........" ...She had nothing to say, just kind of looked away for the rest of his torturing season to the Reaper. "Gods, he's just like mom when he's desperate.." She thought to herself. It was a terrifying thing, for the rest of the Reapers that was. Maybe knowing how far he would go would cause them all to think twice on ever attacking him again? Though who knew, Reaper's were known to never give up, and to try harder the next time.
"Huh?? " She snapped to attention, looking to the two of them now. "..Your crazy, you know that? Do you honestly think i'd just accept and leave you here like that? Krul is the one who got you in the first place.." With her help, ugh.. But still.. " And you want to go back and have a little chat with her? No way! I'll come with you. At the very least I can be backup, and paralyze her if she tries to do anything.." Plus, she really wanted to give her a swift punch in the face for all of this.

_______________________"Trust me, I don't pick fights I can't win.""...Mm, very well." Ephraim said. "I can't say no to that face." He patted her on the head. She reminded him of Eirika back when she always wanted to accompany him on his little misadventures. "But do try to point your paralyzer at her this time." He said, turning now back to Riya. "Now, Riya," He ripped the spear out of her knee. "Stay here, and don't say a word to anyone. If you're not here when we return, I will find you. And what I did here will be nothing compared to what I do to you." Turning now, he exited the small room. "Coming, Autumn?"On the way to Krul's chambers, they passed the loud room where the party was apparently being held. Reapers throwing parties like that. Who knew? Ephraim honestly wished there was a way to have peace, but he wondered how possible that would be... was there any goodness in Krul? Any way to make a treaty? ...That would be put on hold as Krul's door was knocked off its hinges, crashing onto the floor. Ephraim stepped in, shrugging. " Door was open." He said to the tiny Reaper queen, assuming she was there of course. " Your attempts to hold me were cute while they lasted, but now I'm on my way out. But our apparent child... I have no intention of letting her be raised here. Without me." (( OOC: ))

- Krul -
    Krul was there, standing at her balcony over-looking the crimson blood red skies. Her hands were placed against the walls edge, as she lightly leaned against it. "Mm, I knew you would find your way back to my bed.." She said in a softer, teasing voice when the door came crashing down. Of course she felt his presence nearing, but she also didn't seem all to concerned. "But, a threesome? I'm not quite into that. " She smirked, receiving the most grossed out look from Autumn. "Not yet anyway.." She really wasn't, it just made it fun to watch Autumns creeped out expressions.
" So, my dear king. You've come in hopes to take away my child? " She turned fully now, facing him with an amused stare."Impossible. That child is undergoing a procedure that can't be undone. If it is stopped, the child dies or if by some miracle, it survives only to have severe brain damage. Now, I don't think you would want that for your dear, sweet child? You couldn't even get passed the field that is protecting her. By now, she should be growing dramatically. And in this process, she learns everything she needs to know. How to survive by Serenitian and human blood is the first thing taught. She will also only know me, as her mother. " But what of her father, what would she know about him? It seemed he wasn't included at all. She wasn't about to make the same mistake again.
But there was also something else she wasn't mentioning, and the likely hood of that being mentioned to him ever in the future was also slim..
"So, to put it simple. The day she wakes up, she will only want to fulfill her purpose, she will want to survive. She will know nothing but how to kill. "

_______________________"Trust me, I don't pick fights I can't win.""Well, I can't deny that it is rather comfortable." Ephraim responded to her first words. As he expected, she wasn't all-too surprised to see them here. He couldn't help but grin at her next words. "Oh no, don't be ridiculous. I don't share. I want you all to myself." This was certainly the proper time for this sort of talk. Poor Autumn. Then again, he had said she should leave...
"My child," He said in response to her referring to the child as only hers. "Well, if it's already started then there's no helping that. But I'll be taking her when the process ends. I'll teach her what she needs to know." He stepped further into the room, twirling his spear a bit. "If you try to stop that, I'll kill you. And that's not just bedroom talk this time." As if it was last time. "Though you did seem to become more excited when I said that..." He said, putting a finger to his chin for a second in thought. Then lowering it. "I suppose I'm not one to talk." Hopefully Autumn couldn't hear this. The poor girl might have to put a deafening spell on herself so she couldn't listen to these two.... flirt? Threaten each other? The line between the two seemed to be blurring more and more.(( OOC: ))

- Krul -
"Hmm, you know, if you keep talking like that, I might have to take you to bed again. " Krul smirked, it seemed this series of twisted flirting was never ending. "Or maybe you -really- want me that bad. It's okay, you can admit you prefer a vampire over a scaly mermaid. You couldn't even have the amounts of fun we had with a mermaid, you know.." Yeah, poor, poor Autumn.. Glancing to the pink haired, awkward looking teenager she had to snicker to herself. "You know, if you are keeping record of this, he didn't seem to mind a single thing I did to him. He's such a naughty king.." If only it was one of Azura's daughters here, rather then Autumn, gods, how much fun she could have messing with her head.
"You really think you can take them, do you? I would love to see you try. I could use some entertainment. To see your own daughter put you down, I can't wait to see this happen..in fact..." She paused a moment, no more words were spoken, which might cause for a little confusion to Ephraim.
"Oh,darlings..Come to your mother. I have two special treats for you. Show your mother all that you've learned, bring them great misery and make me proud!"

"Are you sure about that? You seem so eager to take away your little kiddie. I think you just want to make a whole lot more with your queen. " She grinned.. "Oh for the love of...! Ephraim, did you forget why you decided to come face her? Or is THIS why you didn't want me to come?! To flirt with your new lover?? I swear, if your being unfaithful to Azura, your going to have a lot more then Reapers to deal with when we get back! " Autumn, that was. Probably not very threatening, yeah. But she was certainly determined to teach him a lesson!
"Hee,heee.." It was to amusing. Quite perfect, actually! "Hmm? Oh, you most certain have won victory, locked up with me. Keeping the Reaper's population growing, definitely what you wanted. Mm? " His last question would go unanswered still, but the malice in her eyes was clear to cause worry. A silent Reaper, was never, ever a good thing.

     Suddenly, Krul would vanish from the room, but what followed was a bit more devastating then even she may of expected, as a blue wave came crashing into both Ephraim and Autumn, the force would likely send the two back violently, to crash into the objects closest to them, be that a wall, or the bed. What was certain, was it would be quite the painful hit. Before Ephraim had a chance to get himself up, or even realize what was going on through the disorientation he would likely sustain from the surprise attack, he would find the edge of a long, sharp blade placed directly at his throat as a older teenage girl stood before him, holding the spear firmly in place. He might see...a few similarities..to himself, with the teal hair and strangely familiar golden eyes, just where that side came from was a real mystery, and a little alarming all the same.
As the girls golden eyes locked onto his, while he was still down, she moved a foot slightly, only to bring it down onto his knee. That would keep him from running away, had she managed to do so.
But that's also when a irritating presence caught her attention, and a wave of heavy gusted wind would fly directly at her. All it did, however was blow her long teal-hair elegantly within it's breeze, but had no other affect as the one casting it may of hoped for. Autumn should of just stayed down... "...."
Something of a massive snake was suddenly just....wrapped around Autumn! Constricting her movements to a complete zero, and making breathing a little more challenging, but not cutting it off completely, she didn't want her meal cold, after all. Once she had finished off this man, she might have a little more feeding time to enjoy. She did all of this, without even ever looking into Autumns direction or breaking concentration with Ephraim.

_______________________"Trust me, I don't pick fights I can't win.""You think you're my queen? You-" Ephraim was stopped as Autumn started talking. He glanced at her. "I cannot say I'm very intimidated." Then again Autumn had shrunk him down to being very small once, he remembered. He wondered what all she could do with her magic.
He was about to address Krul again, but in the next moment she vanished. He immediately braced for a strike, as he expected one to come, and come it did, but not from Krul. The attack was stronger than he expected, sending him into the wall, where he made a slight indent, before sliding down to a seated position. And in the next moment, the end of a spear was at his throat. Oh boy. He looked up, to see... "...She gave you a spear. Of course she did." He muttered. "...What in the world are you wearing." Did Krul think this was an okay outfit? As she moved her foot, even the subtle movement didn't go unnoticed, and when she tried to bring it down onto his knee, he quickly slid his leg back, taking that moment to reach up and grasp the spear's shaft, moving his head to the side and attempting to force it to stab deeply into the wall, to lodge it there. Depending on how strong she was, that may or may not work. Then he got to his feet, attempting to grab her by the arms and hold them behind her back, as a way to keep her from attacking without hurting her too bad of course. He didn't want to outright fight her if he could avoid it--only to kidnap her. ...For good reasons.(( OOC: ))

He was quick to figure her out, it seemed. Unfortunately, she wasn't aware of who he was, to her, he was simply a intruder, and a possible meal. Her golden eyes narrowed into his own, she didn't have any interest in answering him about her clothing, nor did she seem to want to speak at all. She was just..fulfilling her orders, and that was to be rid of the intruders, slowly.Obviously Krul knew somehow, it would be that easy. Getting rid of Ephraim was like trying to get rid of ..well, Krul. It just wasn't possible! As she made her attempt to demobilize him with a attempt to shatter his knee, Krul would witness from her hidden location, that her daughter wasn't quite battle ready as she should have been. Had she been, nothing could have stopped her, yet Ephraim was able to read her movements before she ever got to make them. It wasn't long before he had the shaft of her spear grasped in his hand, and out smarted her by lodging it into the wall where his head was only seconds ago.
Oh, boy. She wasn't making the best impression. Though she WAS fully awakened only a few hours ago, it wasn't so bad for being hours old.
And then she tried to grab her by the arms. "...Get..your filthy hands...OFF ME!" Her voice practically rang out in such a force, it caused her own powers to react, resulting in a sonic boom like affect! It would no doubt blow Ephraim back once again, and take a little of the room apart in the process. The ceiling noticeably began to crumble, some of the poles on the bed cracked and broke off, small items shattered through out the room and area surrounding it.

_______________________"Trust me, I don't pick fights I can't win."Her form may have been a bit sloppy and her movements easy for him to read, but Ephraim still had to admit, she was already quite gifted in combat. Considering this was likely her first battle, it was extremely impressive. The main reason he was able to outdo her so thoroughly was because of his wealth of combat experience, and his formal instruction in warfare. Instruction he would hopefully pass on to her to help her hone her raw talent.
Though what she lacked in experience she made up for in special abilities, it seemed. He was caught off-guard by her sudden screech, sending him straight down onto his back, covering his ears. They were ringing horribly... what kind of ability was that? His senses were utterly debilitated by that for a few moments, as his ears were ringing and his vision was shaky. He blinked his eyes quickly to try to refocus, but what she did had a severe effect that would last at least a good few seconds it seemed.(( OOC: ))
