Nimm nodded. "I understand." she said with a smile. "So then, since you'll be teh one enjoying the scenery, where would you rather I meditate?" she kept her smile, really wanting him to pick this time. While she waited for his answer she folded her hands behind her back, rocking on her heels. Faintly, she wondered what Rayvn was up to now that she wasn't all by herself in the forest anymore.

"I know somewhere you can meditate...well, maybe." He'd drop his scythe, letting it sink in to the ground lazily. He'd let it drag behind him as he'd walk, trying to think this one through. She wanted to be close to him, but at the same time if she wanted this to work he couldn't be a distraction.
Eventually, he'd find he went in a full circle around Nimm. He'd arch a brow at the circle on the ground, then look to Nimm with a sick grin. He'd rip he scythe from the ground and bring it smashing down in front of her, though she'd be hit with nothing. Within that circle, everything would simply disintegrate from several meters down.
"Just fall in; I'll push you in if I have to. Then you'll be forced to use your dormant powers given I've been feeding off of your normal energies since I begin 'thinking.' Only energy you'll have left to use...is that. SO HA!"

Nimm had to jump back a bit as the hole formed, more out of reflex then anything else. It wasn't what she was expecting that was for sure. At the mention of being pushed, she frowned and looked up at him, remembering the whole roof incident. "No pushing please."
She looked down into the hole. "And on the off chance I can't make this work?" she asked.

"Well, if you can't make it out, you're most likely going to die." He was being quite honest, making sure there wasn't any sort of tone to her voice that could make her think he was by an means kidding. He'd look down in to the deep hole, then begin to twirl his scythe.
"This is intense training, and it has a very high success ratio...but it's not perfect. You might be part of the select few that die, and in the end I'll drain you of your blood and energy. But, I promise to put you in a nice grave!" He'd then look to her over his shoulder and smirk.
"Unless...you're too scared to do it?"

She listened to him with a look of mild interest. It wasn't that she didn't believe him, but rather she had more faith in herself then to let herself die at the bottom of some pit. "I thought you knew by now, there's very little that scares me." she smiled and took a step off teh edge into the pit.

"Fear's what governs the universe. Your pride simply means you fear failure, but that's not really the problem right now." He'd itch behind his pointed ear, then conjure up a little metal block to sit on to observe her. Once he was relatively comfortable, he' grin and look to his wrists, now taking in more of her energy at a much quicker pace. At this speed, one could see it as an almost ethereal wave leading from her form to his wrists.
"Your gonna be as useful as a corpse her soon, so I highly suggest you start working on it. I'm not gonna just jump in an save you, either. You die, you die. If you somehow get out of that hole without your dormant powers, I'll slice you in to itty bitty pieces." He'd smirk and chuckle a bit with malice flaring up in his eyes, letting her know he really wasn't kidding.

Nimm looked up from the bottom of the hole, frowning slightly. 'This would be easier if I knew anything about meditating.' she kicked a loose rock and leaned against the wall of the hole, closing her eyes and letting out a sigh. She tried to focus a moment on what fire actually looked like. She did the same thing when she had to judge the distance of a jump or how she would have to fall if landing from some where high up. Planning it out in her head, the only mental image she could come up with was the small campfire she'd set up in the cave back in the woods. Little by little she took teh images of teh cave away, leaving just the fire there.

He'd watch her, though he wouldn't quite see her. By the time she'd started, he'd snagged another one of his chocolate bars and begun munching, though his mouth moved as slow as that of a moose. He was too lost in his own world to really enjoy the taste, which was quite rare for him as chocolate was often a remedy to removing him from these daydreams.
Her situation brought up how he came about his powers. First he was let out of a large iron tank and forced in to a world he was completely ignorant to. He didn't know what power was, much less how the hell to use it. But, once he was clothed and slightly briefed on the things around him and what he was, he could at least feel something inside of him. He couldn't bring it out, but Vincent remedied that with his various tortures, and eventually Singe, or Kharlan back then, awoke his powers out of a mixture of fear of the pain and the rage he felt towards Vincent.
Eventually, his eyes would fall upon Nimm again and his chewing would resume normal speed. He'd more or less used the same method on her, though he'd spared her the pain. She was in the same situation he was: Either use the power or die. He'd just sit on the edge of the deep crater, his right leg swinging with his left rucked under it. His right hand was slowly tapping the scythe against his shoulder while the left slowly fed him his tasty treat.

Ravyn would continue to follow Nimms scent. she noticed a cottege to the far north, this was odd... She remember something Nimm told her, about her family and how they grew strawberries? She'd shake her head and continue walking, it was starting to get dark, her violet hues would glow softly against the dim light of the sun. "I hope your hear Nimm, I hope Singe kept his promise..." Shed sigh deeply and leap up into the tree, she would continue her search in the morning, for now the elf needed to rest.

He'd pass Ravyn, though not quite purposely...whatever, she'd catch up eventually. She had that...goat or whatever she road, right? Right! He'd just rely on this magical goat to get her there in plenty of time. He, however, had managed to leave the mansion when Kain had begun to sleep in the core. he knew it wouldn't be a long rest, and he knew what the outcome would be. Thus, he needed help, as much as he hated to admit it. The only one he could count on for help...well, really, there was no one to count on. Micah was nowhere to be found, and he doubted the boy would even care. He wasn't quite the hero anymore. Draega needed to keep Maya under control, though she seemed to be breaking down her own self. Thus, he was left with the man sitting on the edge of a hole beyond a vast strawberry patch.
Once he'd come to the cottage, he'd catch his breath having ran without using his power the whole damned time. He'd happily rob Nimm of whatever the hell there was in her home to drink, and join Kharlan...or Singy or whatever on the edge of the hole. When he found Nimm at the bottom, he could only think back to an old movie from Earth starring Anthony Hopkins. It made him giggle.
"So. Glad ta see yer doin' o-be kay-be. I assume ya got that body a' yers under control n' ain't gotta fear bein' sucked up again, eh? ...N' what n' the name'a Mary is with tha killin' stick!? It's huge n'...na right!"
He knew the king of all hollowed-out dimwits was on his was, but he knew the lord of all things mentally retarded was also generally harmless. When he figured out he'd raided Nimm's cottage, he grew a little pissed, but it wasn't anything he couldn't replace. He'd keep munching on his chocolate, listening to the moron ramble on.
"Well, you see Ishado, sometimes brute force isn't enough to get the job done! Sometimes, we have to really make our opponents suffer, and I like to think three cursed blades to the body could do the trick. And honestly, it's not really a scythe. It can be morphed in to one from it's original staff form, and before you ask, YES! I FINALLY FOUND THE BOOK! Your brother left some dumbass clues, but in the end Nimm pretty much uncovered it for me. And before you ask why she's in the hole: We had some fun with the book, and in the end found out she has some relationship to Mephistopheles himself, which sure as hell kicks your bloodline to the curb. She has all this fire energy built up and no idea how to exert it...so I stole her energy, threw her in the hole and told her to either use it or die."
"...Kay then. Grats on finely findin' Kain's cheatin' book a' guess. N' the method fer tha girl sounds all good; better n' wha He did ta ya a' least...bu' a' think tha other girl's gonna be really pissed about it n'end up ********' it all up."
He'd shrug and watch Nimm with a thick red brow arched, then look to Vampire Man again.
"Okie dokie, so yer buddy Riot ended up betrayin' ma' brother n' takin' off ta become the leader of tha' H.E.C. thingy. He sent Setsumei of all ******** ta kill Kain, but get this! Kain BROKE tha barrier n' pounded tha lil' s**t in ta next year! Lil' b*****d's gone mute from wha I hear. N' Kain and tha weirdo Micah kid got in ta one of them dramatic over-girl spats, n' in tha end Micah just kinda walked off after makin' Draega feel like scum n' busted Kain's life all ta hell. So, he went n' locked himself n' this planets core. But: We both know Kain dun' like heat, much less magma. But he stayed there fer some time...n' now he'd slowly, but surely, emergin'. N' it's makin' the planet shake..."
"...And you're thinking your dumbass brother's gone and done what he always does when his heart's put on a skewer by his friends, right? Well that's ******** fantastic; figures that when I finally free myself he pulls this s**t! Figures when I find a nice world to live in, he goes all emo! Figures when I find a girl I got a crush on, he's gotta go berserk!"
He didn't quite catch on to what he'd said, and neither had Ishado, but that was partly do to the fact Ishado figured two people in a shack meant...well, Love Shack? Little ole' place people can get together? Yeah. Secret feelings went over his head, and revealing these feelings went over Singe's apparently.
"Well, then I suggest you wait here granted Nimm gives you her approval. You n' me are probably the only ones on this damn planet that want to keep it alive...besides, I don't work well with anyone but you n' Mitsaki, and given Mitsaki' either dead or yet to be heard from, I think I'll stick with you. No doubt Kain's going to come out with some new powers, but I got a whole new arsenal. He'll be prepared for you though, Ishado. I suggest you come up with something new."
"Aye, if ya ain't ever been right 'bout nothin' before yer sure as hell right 'bout this ma friend! I'll figure somethin' out, don't ya worry. N' I'll crash outside if it'll make her feel better...Ravyn's gonna get her eventually, n' I dunno how much room this place has. Guess we be waitin' till then, eh?"
[]†[] No more small font for Ishado; his color's hard enough on the eyes. If it's TOO hard, please speak up so I can find another on! []†[]

Ravyn' felt Ishado's familiar fiery aura as he passed her, and thus she would take off after him. No she didn't have Moon, the b*****d betrayed her, her ears twitched as she heard the familiar roar of the giant cat. "Dammit moon..." She'd stop and turn around, the tiger panted and bowed his head deeply, I am sorry to upset you, I wish just telling you what I thought, I know you care deeply, but sometimes- The tiger's ears pinned back as he was cut off. "No, your jealous, you ALWAYS were the jealous type Moon, your supposed to be my familiar and mount, I I made friends with you, big mistake.."
She'd continue to walk away from him and then met up with Ishado and Singe, she sighed and felt a little nervous upon seeing Singe, Nimm was no where to be found. She'd rush to the end of the hole and peer down. "What the hell Singe?! What are you doing?" Her bright violets would shift to him, as they narrowed and awaited for an answer, she knew he possibly had a good reason to have her best friend in a hole... hopefully.

Oddly enough, whether it was due to the lack of energy (thanks to Singe) or the meditation, Nimm wasn't able to actually hear what was being said up above her. She'd tuned out most of it, and had been busy focusing the energy in front of her. At first she felt a slight tingle run through her body, but after continuing to focus on that feeling it slowly started to heat up till it felt like warm water had been sent rushing through her veins, except it wasn't water, and it wasn't really in her veins so much as just under her skin. It started at her head and worked it's way down, causing her to wiggle her fingers as she felt it reach teh tips of them.
'Now how to make it solid?' she let a breath out with the thought, trying to visualize it in her hands or something. After that didn't work she tried a different approach, trying to force that liquid heat she felt to one hand. This seem to be more effective, as she felt the heat move, and concentrate into a smaller area, the collective heat much warmer in one area then it was spread out. It wasn't till she felt the heat above her hand that she opened her eyes. In her palm was a small, apple sized ball of flame. It was a normal looking flame, the inside blue fading out to red at the edges as it flickered like a lit candle. A very happy smile curved her lips as she stared at her accomplishment, it was more then she thought she'd get, that's for sure.
The voices above her suddenly filled her ears as she realized that Singe was no longer alone at the top of the hole. She could hear Rayvn, panicking about the fact that she was in a hole with no way out. Ishado seemed to be there too, though she couldn't remember hearing why it was, The only reason she knew it was him was the flash of red hair she caught a glimpse of. Her smile faded to a smirk as she shook her head and snickered. Moving to the middle of the hole she tossed the small fire ball up so that it was visible by the other three, hoping to grab their attention.

"She was a bad girl and needed to be punished." He said this with the most casual tone, as if it were true given no detail on his face would change in the least. Screwing with people's minds, specifically those of people that overacted was always so fun; no doubt a habit he had picked up from Kain.
Once he saw the small fireball emerge from the hole, he'd smirk and look down at Nimm. He'd let the scythe rest against his shoulders so he could applaud her, honestly proud she was able to conjure any sort of flame so quickly.
"Not bad for starters, kid, but you got the blood of the Master of Masters in ya. You should be able to explode out of there in no time, now that you can at least conjure a bit. Now, focus on conjuring, but at the same time, make sure that flame knows who's boss and force it to get you out of there."
A bad girl? Wow, that was kind of kinky, but that was something he really didn't need to think about. He'd have to focus his attention on something not related to the subject...Ravyn'! He'd look to her and pat the ground next to him, specifically between him and Singe...though once he'd receive Singe's glare, he'd pat the ground next to him, away from Singe!
"So, where's tha goat? Though' tha' damn thing was like yer shadow er' somethin'. Eh, whatever. N' wha' this twisted ******** meant is tha' he through 'er in tha hole 'cause she ga the energy a' Mephistopheles in 'er...y'know, fiery guy? Mephistopheles, Satan, Lucifer, the Morning and/or Dawn Star? She's all sorts a' gifted with tha energy runnin' through her. N' in these desperate times...he throws 'er down a hole n' tells her live or die."
Something seemed wrong about that...ah well! It was working, so however wrong it may be was more or less obsolete. He'd just watch the fireball come up, then grin and clap wildly for the girl.
"Na' THAT'S tha spirit! Nah ya just gott'a go with wha' The Lord of all Sucking sad 'ere n' you'll be in business! 'Least until he throws ya n' a new hole n' tells ya ta develop yer hellfire..."

"Don't give him any ideas please." Nimm called up. She was starting to feel a bit tired all of a sudden. "Rayvn, I"m fine. No need to panic I promise." She went back to figuring out how to get out. Knowing how to at least gather the energy wasn't the hard part anymore. It didn't take her nearly as long to bring back that warm feeling a second time.
Now she tried to force that same heat down through her feet, making something like an updraft would of been useful, but she wasn't sure if it would work all that well. 'I doubt an updraft would be strong enough to get me out of here...what else?' She did however, without realizing it really, start a nice upward breeze of heat.
Nimm took a seat against the side once again, holding her hand out and making a smaller fire ball. It was pretty easy now that she knew how. Closing her eyes she held onto it a moment. 'Too bad fires not solid, that would be useful.' She moved and tossed it at the opposite wall. A small clink sound caught her ear and she looked up. Where she'd tossed the fireball was now something orange that glinted like glass. getting up she moved over and picked it up. It looked like crystal clear orange glass, though it gave off heat just like fire. And just like the fireball she conjured the inside was a deep blue. "Hey, Singe...Is it possible to solidify fire?" she called up, still turning the stone over between her fingers. It was light weight but didn't seem teh least bit fragile. She turned and angled her throw, tossing the small gem or whatever it was up next to the metal block Singe sat on.

There was something so very wrong about what Singe just said, she'd shake her head and look to Ishado, seeing that he patted the ground between him and Singe she chuckled, then shook her head once more. She'd walk over to Ishado and sit beside him, she would stretch herself crossing her left foot over her right shin.
She'd let out a sigh of relief, it wasn't that she didn't trust Singe, she still was very over protective of Nimm, dark orchids would look to the flame and a smile appeared on her pink lips. "Moon really isn't my Shadow, he said something that sorta pissed me off, so I ran away" She'd shrug her bare shoulders and looked at the flame once more.
