➟"I'm not selfish! I just...I just need it for something important! I don't know what it is yet, but as much as I dislike to admit it, your right. You can't look at everything that I've done and said and say 'that boy isn't selfish'. Your justified in protecting what is yours...really you are. Who am I to just walk in here and take your stuff?" Standing tall and not moving an inch he felt a bit weird. "Your trickery won't work on me though, I need that gemstone. Your trickery may have fooled me the moment you showed me my dead body, but you also made it clear that you have some sort of power. How else did you release my heart only to kill me with it? Smokes and mirrors won't last you long. Once I get out of this place me and Dovelette are off to find the next to-I mean gemstone!" The women spoke in riddles, she seemed to be the manipulative type. Whatever the case he was under her reign, helpless against the girl's twisted game. Almost falling under the girl's complete control he resisted as best as he could. Watching his dead body along with Dovelette's gave him all the incentive he needed to stop himself. His efforts would clash with the girl's power. Conflicted his whole body twitched as his one arm lifted, blade at hand, shook vigorously. "You know nothing of my mother! Keep her out of it!" Of course when the girl mentioned Donovan's mother he naturally assumed that his true mother was back home. "Her love may have been fake...maybe I didn't feel it...but I still care for her. You won't touch a single strand of her hair, I won't allow you to harm my family!" In frustration he lost focus as his arm went downwards. At the last second he gave every ounce of willpower he had within him to push his arm out of the empty bodies way. "We could still be friends...not everyone is completely evil...maybe your just grumpy or had a bad day. Friends look after each other though, becoming my friend means I'm not some toy. I have feelings, a heart, and most importantly I have at least one person who cares for me. Thats all I need." Launching the energy wave from his blade it missed the two bodies, just a bit. "You won't make me a puppet, I won't let you. End this world and put me back in my body."

I was about to make a research for you XD
Malevolent Playgrounds
They say that witches are born from princesses who were not rescued.
"Would you be my friend? ... don't play with me dear, you are 8 years too young to be my friend." Once he barely missed the bodies the woman's laugher would echo from the shrine, it seemed the was waiting in the halls. Refusing her "generous" offer would dictate the beginning of the match. Donovan would have to play his cards correctly. Despite not being able to hear Dovelette, he still held the gemstone he took from the previous Djin, he should be able to use Zoey's heart. The girl's voice teased Donovan as the shrine would start forming cristaline flashes. Something was wrong. And without warning, the whole shrine jolted thousands of electricity volts that would toast the bodies if it wasn't for Donovan who used Zoey's heart to warp them out of it. Which left him badly wounded. It would seem Zoey's heart made him weak against lightning attacks. Which just now, the redheaded woman revealed to have.
There it was again. The woman's laugh would haunt the fields, waiting for the next sneak attack to happen. "You can't deny your destiny Donovan, you are already a puppet of this game."
➟It didn't take much to understand what Donovan thought of the red headed female. She was sick in his eyes, someone who loved to watch others suffer. Despising sadistic tendencies in a person really made him have a new outlook on the women. "You know it'd be a lot easier to make friends if you didn't try to shock them to death. I'll get out of here and I won't follow a single thing in this so called "destiny" that you have made for me." Inexperienced with using the new heart he had acquired before he didn't think he'd be able to teleport the lifeless bodies to safety. "This heart is going to be the one to finish you. It came from the very gemstone in that lake not too far away from here." Attempting to use Zoey's heart would have to wait. She wasn't in his line of sight, probably awaiting another sneak attack at the moment. Naturally he knew the capabilities of all hearts but how would he be able to use this new one to his advantage. Sending shockwaves wasn't ideal when she was no where to be seen. "Come out from where your hiding!" The look on his face was that of a frightened child that had been separated from a parent. Scared and lost he looked around but alas he couldn't seem to find her. It worried him to great lengths knowing that she was lost. Donovan could listen for hearts but he somehow doubted she had one. Sensing emotions was off the table either. It either had something to do with this realm or the people he was around.

Zoey's Heart? This is what I mean. I'm terrible at picking up hints. xD Don't tell me anything or leave hints that are too big. It wouldn't feel right if I weren't to contribute as much to my first mission. >:3

The woman's sinister laugh would echo through the corridors with no decisive source or way to spot her. Donovan could feel himself observed at every single moment. The soothing sound of bells wouldn't be enough to ease the boy's heart in this situation. Suddenly, the lamps that hand on the corridor's would began to manifest a static field around them of course, this wasn't a good sign, moments after, the lamps would start shooting jolts of electricity towards Donovan. "Oh I didn't create this ill fate for you my dear." The soothing voice of that woman would wishper through his ear, as her hands would sudenly embrace his body form behind, holding his position still as the Jolts traveled towards them. "It was your dear mother who did this... if there's one to blame, it should be her." The woman whispered deviously with that soothing voice as the Jolts were each second closer.
➟"Don't you dare speak ill of my mother, she had nothing to do with this! Where I'm from thats a death wish!" Closing his eyes shut he concentrated on teleportation. He didn't need much either, just a few inches or feet to distance himself from the women. Electricity was the least of his problems at this point, time was running out and he didn't even know why he should care as much. Something about story time? His life was in danger and he was risking it to get a toy so he could play some game and attend this story time he heard about from Dovelette. When you thought about it, it sounded completely foolish. If he were to come across Dovelette, should he survive this, he would be very cross and give her a very stern talking to. Even so everyone had a weakness for kind hearted children, she probably had no idea she was even risking his life. She probably thought Donovan could handle it, it made the young heart user a little less mad. Just in time he successfully teleported four feet away from the women. It looked as though she would become the unfortunate one and get zapped by her own electrical capabilities. Foolish to think such things so soon however. Everything wasn't done yet exactly, getting ahead of yourself could have meant absolute death. Falter now and the young boy might surely regret it. "You know nothing of my mother." His voice was raised in frustration, he had no clue as to why she would continue to verbally attack his mother.

The jolts traveled towards the woman who's silhouette vanished after prolonged exposure to the jolts. There were clouds of steam where she once was. But the eerie feeling in the halls didn't gave the idea she was done for. The air suddenly felt cold, as once more the boy's body was touched by that sinister embrace. The redhead would peek from his shoulder to meet with Donovan's gaze. "Oh but I do know her, more than her little boy at least" She giggled, enjoying his annoyance towards her. "Where I come from, this... is a death wish..." The woman replied, before planting her lips upon the boy's neck. Without warning, the jolts jumped right into his body upon contact with the woman's lips. The kiss was prolonged around 5 - 10 seconds, but was enough for her to release the boy and observe the damage upon his body. "If our little hero wishes to play mommy's little game, shouldn't you need a villain so you can play the hero?" The redhead smirked, savoring the tip of her index as it was stained with burnt clothes. "C'mon, little hero... let big sis Melani play the villain for you.." Exclaimed the redhead, she was clearly enjoying torturing the poor guy.
➟"You really are a pain in the neck..." After feeling the electricity surge through his body he couldn't shake the jittery feeling his body felt. "At this point I'm done listening to your sinister words. I'm not falling for your trickery either. You won't manipulate me anymore, I simply won't allow it!" The boy's arms shook as he tried to pick himself off the ground so he could stand and face the women. All the injuries he had been dealt were slowly getting to him. "I'm not going to perceive myself as a hero either. For goodness sakes I'm only demon. There is very little I can do here except fight my hardest and hope to win." So far the women had been appearing behind him rather constantly. If he were to know where she would strike next it could mean a potential victory. The women had also displayed only electrical use of her powers. This meant that the entire shrine was his enemy as well as the women's body it seemed. She held some electricity in her body, otherwise the jolts he felt not too long ago from the women wouldn't have been real. "Electricity and illusions...countering this...how should I go about it...?" In the meantime while he was thinking his hand was raised. Perhaps the secret of victory was through the use of what Donovan thought was Dovelette's heart, teleportation was certainly a great asset but he couldn't use it that easily. He hasn't managed to master the new heart in use at the moment. "A useful heart indeed..." He said to himself. Firing off a shockwave towards the redheaded women he awaited her sudden disappearance and reoccurrence behind his back.

hmm I'm starting to worry about Illo when he has to face her sweatdrop

Just as soon as the shockwave would collide with her, the blast would show her figure was no more. And just as predicted, or imagined by Donovan, pair of burnt arms would extend from behind him attempting to hold onto his figure, perhaps another jolt attack. "ara ara... aren't we in a bad mood?" Asked the redhead, attempting to embrace the boy's figure. It had to be something with sneaky attacks a back stabber tactic.
There was once a woman named Melani Du Couteau. She was in love with a rich boy, how convenient that is? They swore and talked about ever lasting love But the fates would had to change The night of the reaping had arrived.
➟Grinning triumphantly he felt a job well done but when things didn't go back to normal he figured the battle wasn't done yet. Dvelette wasn't around so he could safely presume that he was still trapped in the female's illusion, or the world of the undead. Whatever was the real case at the moment. Finding the once elegantly smooth and silky skin he freaked out, a sense of depression and regret temporarily remained over the boy. "I'm not in a bad mood...I just...I'm sorry." Dread reigned over him as he felt bad for injuring the women so badly. It was mostly due to how she was justifiably defending the gemstone for a good reason while he planned to take something precious for a reason he did not know. "It didn't have to be this way. We didn't need to fight but it was inevitable I guess, sorry I burned your skin." Backing away from the pair of arms he reluctantly raised his hand again but couldn't seem to bring himself up to launching another attack at the women. "Forgive me." Closing his left eye he launched one more shockwave in the hopes that this battle would end and he'd travel to the last Djin. Fighting wasn't something he liked to do, but he had a sword and a duty. Protect what was important, fight for his beliefs, and be there for those who couldn't defend themselves.

Illo has no idea what he's in for when he has to face her. She's so strong that Donovan wouldn't stand a chance without Zoey's heart. And even with it he's still getting pummeled and will continue to get pummeled. Poor Donovan. T^T Its okay though, because Donovan has miracles on his side. ^^

Yeah, I kinda wonder how would he handle her tho > .>

Both of the woman's hands would suddenly start jolting sparks, she was trying to finish this fight as well. But, with the upper hand now, Donovan would escape her grasp and blast the woman's figure once more, before her silhouette would start fading. The whole shine would shine bright before everything would return to normal. There he was, with his hand extended but still not reaching the gemstone. "Onii chan, you have to grab it, it's not going to jump into your hand by itself tehe ~<3" Replied the little Dovelette, still clinging oh his other arm.
The reaping would not be stopped and soon she lost all of the ones she loved On her final moments she grieved in distain.
"Perhaps on your next live you should study medicine I heard it holds a way to cheat death"
The reaper smirked from ear to ear and then Melani's soul she would finally eat
With her memories lost, but her heart moving on on her next life, she took the reaper's advice looking into medicine for no apparent reason to save the lives of others in exchange of those she couldn't
The years past on, but the woman was still weak and so the reaper left Melani she was obviously of no use.
➟"Huh?" He rubbed his eye just to make sure that everything he saw was real. Dovelette was back and everything seemed to calm down...for now. There was still one more "toy" that needed to be acquired. "These toys better be worth it..." Grasping the gemstone quickly he noticed its beauty. It was much like the first one he had come across, beautiful and shiny. In Donovan's eyes it still wasn't worth being beaten and electrocuted. "One left..." Once more he looked at the picture and the coffin. Wondering what all of this meant he began to seek the last gemstone, but not before sighing. "All of this fighting...woe is me." A faint smile was on his face as he looked back at Dovelette. "She was tough but you managed to help me through it. Thank you Dove." Abandoning the shrine he was on his way to the final toy. "All of these people here are really mean aren't they? Except you. Your the only sweet one that won't try to ki-I mean act mean towards me." Realizing that he was about to talk about death with an innocent child he quickly cut himself off mid way through his previous sentence.

Interesting reason as to why Melani would want to take up medicine. Nurse mortem would be moved I bet...

"oh I would never act mean with Onii chan, Onii chan is good with me and loves me much." The girl replied playfully, pulling onto his sleeve while pointing at the other side of the shrine. "C'mon Onii chan. lets keep moving we only have 1 toy left, then we can go to story telling." Said Dovelette, jumping at times of excitement.
➟"Thanks Dovelette. Lets get going now." Donovan walked towards what he thought was the next area in which he'd visit yet again, another enemy. "Hopefully someone doesn't get the jump on me again. I hope that the gemstone I find is already guarded by someone, surprises are a bit too much for me right now." Determined to discover what story telling was he walked at a fast pace. While walking he was wondering what these gemstones would be needed for, as well as what the new heart he acquired could do. He didn't stop to find out though, he was beginning to get the hang of the first heart he had found so there didn't seem to be any need. Besides he was sure that if the time called for it, the heart would pull through for him. What began to bother him the most though was how he had come across the heart. It was clear he had obtained it after he had left the shrine but who did it belong to? The female's heart? So many questions piled on top of one another made him anxious. "Where is the next area...?"

As they traveled to the next portal to get the final gemstone, they would be transported to a realm with no citys, falls or halls, There was only a desert filled with desolation and despair. The sound of raging sand would fill the air, along with the sounds of a mourning voice who cried helplessly in disdain. Just few steps ahead, you could see, through the sanstorm, the form of a behemot would haunt the place. The sound of his winks are like cracking mountains while in motion. Whis whole body would seem to shatter the earth with each step. Better hide, better not appeal for its atention, as the very growl would insite a raging storm. The dragon would walk through the sandstorm. Unable to see beyon it's nose. As if it was hunting for something.
This vast desert would seem to have some ruins in the center, yet it was few feets away from the colossal creature as this one appeared to walk in circles around it, never to reach it's location. But always hunting upon the sound of a mourning woman.
"Onii chan, be carefull, she's very violent... oh.. the dragon is dangerous too." Said Dovelette while hugging onto his arm. As if she feared the raging winds would drift her away from Donovan.
➟"Great...a desert. I love deserts..." Speaking sarcastically he walked around a bit more before noticing the gigantic dragon. "What did I get myself into...I'm going to die here aren't I? This desert will be my coffin to hold me until my body decomposes and disappears from the earth." Realizing that he was talking negatively about death again he quickly cheered up for Dovelette. "I mean lets go get that third toy. Hopefully she isn't too violent. That last one nearly killed me, I'd hate to see what this one could do." Despite his brains desperate calls to run away from this place at that very moment he couldn't just abandon everything he had worked so hard for, so in the end he bulked up and walked quietly towards the ruins. Tip toeing he made sure Dovelette was okay. "Don't go getting hurt now. Remember what happened back at the lake, protecting you is important for me. Try to stay quiet because if that dragon catches even just a glimpse of us we're dead. Got that?"
