A pillar of a bright white light entered Xol's chamber. A tiny blue diamond decended the pillar and landed on the ground. Heswina's body exploded from the diamond, causing all of Xol's furnature to fly away from the landing area. His giant bed was nearly thrown through the wall as misc. furnature smashed against the stone walls. Violent mood swings, just another downfall of her pregnacy.

*Phia had been walking through the forest her eyes sweeping around for anything, she wasnt sure what to look for to find Xol's keep, she sighed heavily and kept going*

After awhile Phia came upon a rather large boulder set against a grove of trees, it was heavily overgrown and would have been invisible if not for Xol's energy signature emenating out of it. The closer she got the more overwhelming the aura would get untill it got to the point where she might have vomited. Upon further inspection the boulder front would reveal an opening covered by heavy vines, spider webs and various skeletons scattered about. If she dared to walk into the opening, Phia would walk along a roughly six foot long corridor that ended in a stone wall, covered with symbols to which would be unreadable. This is where she would stop and Xol would be able to meet her.

* Phi followed the aura to the boulder, by now she was incredibly lightheaded, she drew, once she saw the opening her sword and moved the spider webs aside along with the vines and went past rather quickly incase any of the web's occupants were still present. She walked down the corrider and stopped looking at the wall, the runes where similar to Hylden runes...but not enough for her to read*

Two plumes of acrid black smoke came up from either side of the corridor and formed into Xol, a few feet behind Phia. Due to the darkness only his glowing crimson eyes could be seen. "Give me your hand..." He spoke softly, however it still echoed in the expanse of the cave.

He chuckled and grabbed her hand firmly, drawing her close. "Fiesty as ever Mrs. Aakarshan..."
Phia's hand would start to burn, just enough to cause a slight bit of discomfort. Her body would them become as light as her head as everything around her blurred in a endless streams of colors, stopping abruptly as they reformed in the main courtyard of the Keep.
It was a huge structure, stone like most past castles of the European and Scottish eras, but more squat earning it the name of Keep instead of castle. The only difference was the stones were not a normal gray, but an Onyx black in color. They were also overgrow in some of the same plant matter as the front of the cave above.
"Quite noble of you Phia...giving your life to protect your child and husband. Foolish, but noble all the same." Xol grinned, sitting down on the edge of the fountain.

*she closed her eyes tightly as her head spun from the changes in the colors, she opened her eyes when it stopped and looked around in thought. She then turned and looked at Xol* when they ar' me only family left....I'll do anything to keep them safe....*she stood there, her gaze hard*

"I've always held an interest in you Phia and that's why I'm not going to kill you. When you touched my hand the 'method' I've been working on for these last few weeks was injected into your blood stream. That was the slight burning sensation you felt." He said, leaning forward and baring his fangs.
Xol stood and walked over to Phia, standing in front of her and equaling her hard glare. "Remember when you said, 'I can't control Old D'? Well...guess what? Now you can." A sick laugh escaped his throat as his eyes lit with defiance.
"As soon as D starts to loose it an let Old D take over, the nanites in your blood stream will slowly begin to shred your blood platelettes. The longer the little bastards are allowed to do their dirty work, the shorter your chances become of living as the platelette particles will evertually cause your organs to flood and clog leading to 'toxic shock'. A condition where the body becomes diseased with it's own chemicals and dies." He finished and tilted his head, narrowing his eyes slightly at the women before him.
"Ready to go home, luv?"

"Xol!" Heswina was standing up in a window, or one of her golams anyways, and was glareing down at Xol. She was obviously pissed off. "What are you doing, oh love of my life?" The message was sent dirrectly to Xol and was so encrypted that it would be nearly impossibly to decypher it. She had a soothing tone, but closer exaimination would reveal that she was very carefully covering her anger.

Xol walks over to Phia and places an arm around her shoulder, walking her over to the fountain where he makes her take a seat with him. "Listen to me Phia. All I want is the Black Rose...as I said before. Old D is extremely powerful and poses a threat to me in some ways especially in my endeavor to get, the Black Rose." he stopped and removed his arm from around her shoulder, blushing slightly.
"So...anyway...for the time being, you'll be my guinea pig. You'll be there to control 'Old D' in a sense and to make 9 more flexible in her thinking to relinquish the powers to me. If you're worrying about the side effects of the nanites in your blood, stop now. There's a saftery mechanism that allows me to stop them if things get critical, only me and you know that so let's keep it between us, eh?" He grinned and winked, standing up and offering her a hand.
"I told you that I wasn't going to kill you...now c'mon. Let's go back to the Dojo, shall we?"
Put your jealousy on check Heswina, I'm conducting buisness that's integral to my long term plans. This benefits both you and I, so think before you jump to conclusions and let the green eyes monster run rampant through you mind! He spat out telepatically to Heswina, well, her golem anyway.

"Jealouse? Heh, sorry Xol...you're mine and you'll never leave me. Trust me, I've made sure of that. I am just curious as to know why you're harrassing a good friend of mine. I would appreciate it if you not bring any harm to Phia there...as I said before, she's a friend and I would hate it if our relationship was soured because you hurt my friend." Heswina turned away, the anger was gone and she was laughing out loud as she made her way down one of the corridors, away from the window. "Oh, and if all possible, I'd like Phia to stay for dinner...your little imp friend is most helpful." Heswina was enjoying her little game of house wife, though whether or not she'd ever really marry Xol was a matter that was an up in the air toss up. If he ever asked her, she'd probably say yes, but she wouldn't actively persue a relationship as strong as marriage.

"Well then...that's a risk we'll have to take now isn't it?" He smiles, grabbing her shoulder and sliding her in front of him as he crosses his arms over her chest in an 'X' and they both explode into a plume of black mist.
