*To anyone with keen enough hearing, the front door could be herd closing and cutting off a string of muffled curses as the owner cradled her arm, furiously rubbing at the red streak running across her pale complexion from the fiery arrival. The blades moving from her path as she wove through the fields in the direction of the shore, the passage of time hitting Kalie like a wall as the suns came into view.. all five having been partially blocked by the palace floating just outside.*

Tor looked towards the direction where Kalie had ran and arcs of blue energy began to dart through his hair. He did not put the chain around his neck, but flung it at Vince instead, telling him to put it on as he dashed out, floating just off the ground at points in an accelerated run. Wouldn't take him long to catch up to Kalie

*Darz can't help but roll his eyes. As he watches Kargin dart out, he looks at Vince before, quitely, putting up a Chaos Bubble. It surrounds Darz for one, simple reason. He wants to watch what will happen with absolutely no consequences. Darz smirks as he wonders if Vincent can see the rolling Chaos outside the Seas of Limbo.*

*Hearing the door echo the sound it had made several minutes earlier, Kalie slowed her pace and turned her gaze back to the house, while still walking backwards. The sea of sand dunes coming to life just over the horizon behind her growing with every step. Squinting..she blinked.. why was he..? He had company to take care of.. and..and.. *
*Halting her retreat and quickly hiding her arms behind her back, the lightly burned one still encompassed by her other hand, Kalie watched Torment somewhat nervously for the first time.. while wishing she had picked a shirt with sleeves that morning...*

"Torment."
A massive fireball erupts out of the gem in Vincent's general direction.
"I will not have this vessel suffer any indignities. Our agreement stands only if you are the one to bare this gem."
A robe of fire snakes across the room and hooks onto Torment's boot as he walks. Its probably very hot, and pretty painful too, but it drags the gem along behind Torment.

EDITED: Vincent was unphased. Fire on a person of fire did nothing. All it succeeded in doing was singe his shirt, which feel away as his one wing came from his left and covered over his chest. The bulk of the fire was taken in by Vince, using it for energy later; he'd have to let it away a bit later, so he didn't burn up.

The small gem darts up to Tor's hand as he see's Kalie stop, he had intentionally dragged him thus far. He paused entirely for a moment and stared at the Gem, "Just cool it, literally." He wrapped the chain around his wrist, not putting it around his neck for he was far more used to bracelets than amulets 'round the neck, "You keep the heat down for a bit and I'll put you 'round my neck, but for now, just ******** cool it." He sealed the gem within his hand as it dangled from his wrist, slowly walking up to Kalie, "You didn't have to run way out here...don't have to hide it either. I can feel it just as much as you can. Its a one way thing unless I force it it seems. Just, here..." He held out his empty hand, slowly glowing a dim white with highlights of blue to heal the burn, "Kalie, when I'm gone I want you to go back to Gaia, hide somewhere I wouldn't be able to find you. Stay with the GPD if you have to, for all they know you've done your time by now, and then some. I just don't want you getting hurt. I wouldn't even let you come if you begged it of me Kalie...."

*Smudging her foot around in the patches of earth barely visible through the long grasses, her chin fell.* "I was taking a walk.." *Her head tilting to the side enough to see the burn erase itself in a manner that it could have never existed..* "you didn't have to.. it would have healed after a while.."
*Still doing her best to look away, Kalie's voice took a somber tone..* "I don't.. I'm afraid of loosing you again.. and not being there to make sure its not permanent.."

*Darz looks at Vincent and walks over to him. Something...doesn't smell right about him. He can't place his finger on it, so he is intent on an answer. With the Chaos Bubble still surrounding him, he isn't able to come within anything less than four feet of him. Darz quirks a brow.*
You... You have his scent on your person.
*Of course, Darz is refering to the one who, in his eyes, died a long time ago never to return -- Torment. He wonders if Soulscour has that same...dispicable scent about him.*
Hmph. Knowing Kargin, he'll want Kalie out of this.
*Darz walks away from Vincent, not really caring for any sort of answer. As he does so, he dispells Chaos Bubble and leans upon his senses to know where Kalie, Kargin, and Viper are. Personally, he could care less for Viper's presence in this. He'll accept his help, however.*

Malazar snorts loudly at Torment and Kalie's sentiments.
"Fine, cool down, right. Kalie, I'm sorry my port burned you. Torment, you owe me. Vincent, you're a form of life lower than the amoeba. Person with the Chaos powers, hello."
The gem glints.
"Happy now? Can we leave?"

Vince moved towards Darz a bit, not really for any other reason, just because. He looked to him with a sigh and nodded, glancing about. "Because for a time Soulscour was using my body."

Torment turned away from Kalie and started back for the house, "This time, I'll be dealing the death. I'll not be letting myself succumb to it. I may have lost magical strength, but I will no longer obey death. I will command him." As he walked away the pheonix upon the back of his shirt seemed to be in flight, it's wings flapping as the wind whipped across the Razor Fields. He slowly raised his arm with the gem hanging on it as he left Kalie behind, "We'll go tomorrow, we haven't the data needed yet, and I hadn't expected such a prompt arrival from you." His arm dropped to his side as he simply kept walking.

*Sighing Kalie lifted her eyes enough to see him walk away, without the slightest goodbye. Stuffing her hands in her pockets, she turned back around and kept walking for the sea, she wasn't ready to leave the plains just yet..but the house wasn't the warmest of options either. Her silhouette dimming as it blended in with the blue haze emerging just above the rolling mounds of golden grains.. * "I hope this isn't good bye.."

No words, just an evil cackle.

*Darz looks up, and it is for many reasons. First, Vincent's words. He'd been merged with...the worst of Kargin's soul. He lets out an audible growl. Second, he can sense the foul and pure evil on the air from Viper. He'd prefer not to work with such a force, but it would help balance the good Darz'll be doing. Third...he feels a strange dispairing on the winds. He can't tell who its from, not being a psionic, but, at least, he can identify it as Kalie or Kargin...or both.*
Into the miasma we soon shall march... Shall we come out? Destiny doesn't know; Fate frowns. *smirk* I like Destiny better. Ends up being right more often than Fate.
*Darz smiles for the first time since arriving, but it quickly fades. He thinks on how they will face Soulscour. What little Darz knew of Viper shows him as wildly unpredictable...but Darz knew better than to say any were that way. Vince has revealed more of himself in his silence than he may ever have imagined. Kargin and Kalie...may well prove to be the most powerful two "Champions" to face off against Soulscour.*
We must have Kalie as we had to have Tarma. I have the feeling that our strongest warrior will be the ones holding the strongest energy.
