Welcome to Gaia! ::

As the Tzimisce took his leave of the area, the orb that now contently floated around Jan's upper torso with a bopping motion switched to a more maroon hue.

"I take pride in the idea that I could make you feel even slightly uncomfortable after being with Roan for so long."

Jan's shadow finally gave one strong ripple before a two dimensional figure began to rise up from the center of it. This shadow manifestation once fully emmerged then looked at Jan with its wicked grin, the orb speaking with the voice of Nickolie's wife.

"I've an idea as to how we can get Roan to show herself, if she is around. But you should be prepared for a.....Lively reaction from her."

With that said, the shadow began to grow, as though filling with air, being blown up like a balloon, certain aspects of the Corbin shadow changing.

"You'll see. Might not want to stand too close to me."

As features of the shadows structure changed, the pitch black single colour, save for the eye and mouth gradually faded, then began to swirl and seep into the body, like water circling a drain at various places.

Finally, 'Corbin stood beside Jan, his hair cut much shorter, though the same colour for the most part. A few braided strands of cerulean dangled from the man's head, along with a fringe of grey. One blue eye, and a wealth of wild facial hair, grey sprouts all through the raven beard.

With no change to the bone structure of the face, just a change to the scars and tone, the man sported a white dress shirt with black sleave bands, celestian headwings and ornate designs that marred his body the same as Corbin's.

This much older man then began slowly walking forwards, looking around as he called out with an all too familiar voice. It was outragious. Surely Jan would notice as Corbin changed, just how little difference there was between him, and his father.

"ROAN!"

With no response, 'Corbin' gave a sigh along with a shrug. If Roan was here, and had noticed his change, there was something up. Jan was right, while she would more then likely know it was actually Corbin, he thought she would THROTTLE him.

"Guess I have no choice. This'll sting like a b***h."

With that, Corbin took a long, deep breath, despite his not needing air. He then crossed his arms over his chest and gripped his shoulders before his skin and bone structure began to change.

Showing signs of strain, he managed to wince out.

"Come on...Changling..."

His knees then buckled and he hit the floor in a huddled head, as his hair grew in length, and turned brighter and brighter. It was gradually then, that he stood, a changed man. Hopefully in Roan's eyes, this would be just short of heracy.

"Get out her women!"

Kaiser stood in the middle of the ice forest, barking orders.

Wincing, Corbin was dubbed the powerhouse of the clan, brute force incarnate, though he would always feel his brain rattle around in his skull when Roan hit him, esspecially when she meant to cause serious harm.

This was it, he had drawn her out with his extreme gamble, and if he didn't act accordingly, or quick enough, he'd end up a smear.

Slowly, as he winced, his voice returned to normal first.

"I'm not sure what hurt more...The Discipline, or the result, desired or not."

Corbin's face then slowly reconstructed itself, returning to his younger, sharper features, along with the colour of his hair.

"WOMEN!"

Kaiser's voice errupted from behind her, although upon her turning her attention away, Corbin's tail whipped to coil like a tightly curled spring between the two, before potence ran through Corbin's veins like a tidal wave, and the tail hit Roan in the gut with a tremendous force.

The orb, that had mimiced Kaiser's voice then radiated a maroon glow once more, and as Roan, still gripping Corbin tightly flipped over head landing on her back, the icey ground turned to a quick sand like substance, which rapidly pulled the Cainite women down before solidifying around her figure, leaving her head, neck and tops of her shoulders free, her shins exposed, and her wrists to her hands free.

With her confined, Corbin rolled backwards, and landed sitting over her chest, under the solid stone now.

"Now play NICE! Jan and I are here to help."

Snarling, Corbin had to summon all his will not to try and squash her head against the ground with his potence, and instead as she tried to get up, dropped his weight on her, refusing to move.

"NOT, untill you come to your senses. A; I was cursed with magra, I didn't have a choice in it like YOU did with take. You know how much I hate not having control. B; dont talk to me about men leaving you, My mother was used against me, just like I used that albino b*****d against you before she was murdered. C; I had to endure my father dieing TWICE. D; yeah, I have Tzimisce blood, but thats because that sick ******** Ice put it there. Again, no choice. Sure, if Lineage or Magra left, I might act something like you right now, but."

And this is where his potence showed, as his palm crashed down on the ice just aside Roan's head. A spider web of cracks and fissures spread out through out most of the forest, he was showing just the same amount of discontent as her now, as the ground trembled and the nearer of the 'trees' toppled.

"Wouldn't you do the same for me?!"

Sighing, Corbin slowly pulled himself off of the women, then turned his back on her. With his hands sliding into his pockets, he shivered slightly, starting to regret the amount of force he used in his still healing condition.

"I haven't betrayed you, Roan. I never have, and for the life of me, cant see myself ever betraying you. The s**t i've gone through to find you out of sheer worry, and the fear that you couldn't be found."

Sighing again, he produced a cigarette from his shirt pocket, and lit it. After a long drag, burning half of the cigarette, he continued.

"I'll release you of your word to my father. Right now. If you really think i've betrayed you, and if I have in your eyes, then if you think I did it willingly and with full knowledge, then strike at me. You could destroy me with such ease, being my sire."
