What were those idiots doing?! "Don't protect him!" Seriously?! Making a noise of disgust, Na'ima hurried after Mordred, pushing past the fools trying to get in the way. She thrust her halberd out, holding the end of the handle in one hand while swinging it and making an attempt to catch his ankle on the curved edge of the blade.
Na'ima came to a slow shortly after that, wincing and pressing her hand to her side where Mordred had stabbed her. Damn him.

He could be brave. He knew he could, knew that he could be brave and do the right thing. He'd seen proof in the empty eyes of his family, when the right thing required their lives.
This was no different - it just required his.
"I'll be the bravest ever for you," he promised, losing sight of him through a teary blur. He leaned into his touch, not minding the prickle of his claws, and reached up to gently rest his hand on his. "But um, won't...you're better and handsomer than me, my Prince. Will I be good 'nough so no one knows? Sos it works?"

Yuki stared at Riley, bewildered, as she pleaded with him. It was enough, thankfully, to give him pause and the man's tense stance relaxed a bit. She made him unsure of his actions, battling between the logic of his side and theirs. If he was alone in it, it would do no good anyway. If he couldn't rally them to follow the idea - naive as he didn't realize it was - he would only in turn be fighting against allies instead.
He set his jaw, and wordlessly nodded, turning his gaze from hers. "I'll stay out of the way." Yuki said, sounding defeated.
Keeping his tonfa in hand, now only for their own defenses, he wordlessly watched her go to Estel to tend to her wound. As before when Riley was occupied, his attention was around them in search of other, thus far unseen threats.

Breathing coming in short gasps, Jason sprinted back the way he came, skidding to a stop then running down the other corridor, his heart in his mouth for the safety of his two friends.
Up ahead he could see a swinging light, and as he drew closer he saw none other then Mordred, though there was something very off about the man.
"What the-" Jason stumbled as a knife came his way, just scraping him on the cheek to leave a small cut. With a yelp of surprise he scrambled away from the Great Knight, gazing about for his friends. Ah, There they were.
"Yuki! Riley!" He called out, coming to a stop very out of breath. "I just - Mordred - He tried to-" He then looked at the ton furs Yuki had ready, and looked just a little concerned. He remembered the last time he barreled in the last minute and tried to talk to someone.
"You're not possessed are you?" He asked uncertainly.

Hearing the man's familiar voice calling his name, Yuki's attention snapped toward Jason as he ran up to them. "Jason," he greeted in a tone that suggested his relief, tonfa briefly doubled in one hand so he was free to clap the other man's shoulder.
With the question of possession, Yuki managed the smallest hint of a smirk and shook his head. "Don't think so, anyway."
"Did you find anything?" He noted the new wound on his cheek, trickling blood, and he looked back toward Riley to see if she'd looked up. Perhaps he should ask for something for Jason to wipe the blood from his face.
At least it was the smallest wound he'd had to witness in his entire time in the castle...

The friendly gesture had the knight relaxing, relieved Yuki still had his senses.
"Thank god, I really don't want to fight you." A large sigh, and he returned to gesture and clasped his shoulder in return. Only to remember how inured it was and pulled his hand back. "Ack, sorry." Looking apologetic.
To his question, Jason frowned. "I found Galahad...barely alive, and a fraction of what he used to be. A gaunt shell...I don't understand what could of happened, but I would guess magic of some sort. There are other knights with him now, so hopefully he should be..."
He didn't finish, unsure of what he should say. Killed? He didn't want to see his sworn knight dead...

After bandaging up both Estel, and Johan, she could see that her words had their intended effect on Yuki, and briefly wondered if she'd made the right choice. The wind had been taken out of him, and it was her fault. But he was safer now, and -
"Jason!" She stumbled to her feet and ran to look at the wound on his cheek, holding his chin firmly as she did so. She gave Mordred another hard glare, even as she pressed a bandage against the skin to stop the bleeding. Her hand itched to return the favor, because the urge to kill had already tainted her heart now, and it refused to go away.
"The only one possessed is that man, that monster." She spit out, refusing to look away from Mordred as he continued to fight through the knights that came down the corridor.

"Thank you," Estel murmured to Riley, closing her eyes. She clutched her quarterstaff with both hands, reluctant to let it go.
She probably could have got up to fight, but she had a feeling that would probably just undo all of Riley's hard work.

Honestly, the man's shoulder was considerably better than it would have been without the aid of a healer. However, having Jason clapping his hand against it had him flinching and giving a short sound of protest. He chuckled a little, though, knowing that it was something he'd done without realizing soon enough that it might have been uncomfortable.
He gingerly ran his fingers over the bandages at his shoulder, carefully rubbing against the ache that had flared up and lightly rotating his shoulder. As he listened to Jason relay what he had seen of Galahad, Yuki gave a bit of a wince. It wasn't obvious if it was in response to Galahad's state, or the pain in his shoulder.
He dropped his arm with a sigh, stepping back quietly as Riley rose to tend to the other man's cheek.
"Perhaps he was corrupted by the shadows, as well." Yuki said in regards to Galahad, sounding almost sympathetic in his tone. "If he's as far gone as you say, I'm not sure if he can be helped." Jason had said that there were others, too. Hopefully... They could handle the situation.
"I'm afraid I don't know where to go from here. Camelot is crumbling from the inside, and I fear over whether any of these Great Knights are to be trusted... What can we do?"

Jason gave a small smile to Riley as she checked over his wound, half listening to Yuki talk about...shadows or something. "Mmm.." He responded, sounding distant. He was finding it hard to focus all of a sudden, as if something was tugging at him
His mind was showing him strange images. No, they weren't strange, they were..beautiful.
He could see his family welcoming him, their love for him overflowing . He felt brave, confident, extremely powerful as a great knight. He was so rich, he had never had so much money in his life. Everyone respected him. Everything was wonderful..
The grail had given him these tings. No, it would give him these things. He needed it. He didn't need anything else but the grail. No one else deserved it but him. It was his right.
He needed it.
His gaze lowered, hair hiding his eyes as Riley tended to his cheek. Then he grabbed her wrist, squeezing it until it hurt
"Where is it." He said slowly, his voice more deeper and menacing.
And then he grabbed the front of her dress, furious eyes glaring daggers into her own. "WHERE IS IT??"

She couldn't blame Jason for getting distracted. She left him to be, releasing his chin and returning his smile with her own tender, shy one. Yuki sounded out the same predicament she'd been feeling, which was that there was no clear answer anymore, and they had no idea what they were supposed to do. It was disheartening to have lost the path to the light so quickly, but the Great Knights had left them in nothing but chaos.
Jason's hand wrapped around her wrist, and her body tensed with the sudden feel of skin on skin contact. She'd been so good about it until that moment, because she could tell this was different, and she instantly went on alert.
She was right to.
"Where is what?" She whispered, her voice already trembling. The bandages dropped out of her hand when he tightened it, and the skin around his fingers turned white with distress. She opened her mouth to complain, but it was too late. His hands were on her and it was too much and she froze, terrified beyond compare at the feel of it even more than she was terrified of Jason himself.
"Please - don't - touch - " She couldn't breathe, she couldn't even get the words out, her lungs rasped painfully with each forced gasp and she curled inward, wishing nothing more than to wither away in that moment.

While it couldn't rightly be said that everything was calm, it seemed that they had been out of immediate danger. The white knight still tried to keep out for signs of movement that weren't of those he could recognize, just in case.
Jason was the last person he would have imagined to be a threat. Suddenly he was snatching at Riley's wrist and acting much unlike himself. He witnessed it, his stomach lurching. It was happening again.
In the moment that Riley was suddenly struggling to breathe past panic, Yuki was wedging his arms between them. "Jason!" He was shouting, remembering full well that something so simple wasn't about to snap him out of whatever enchantment he was under. No, they weren't likely to be that lucky.
One tonfa pressed flat to Jason's collarbone, seeking to push him back from Riley. "Forgive me," he murmured in the same instance, to one or both of them.
And the second came up into the joint of Jason's elbow with violent force. Not to jerk the it into bending in the natural manner in the hopes of him letting go in response, but striking it from below and in the opposite direction to dislocate the joint to force his grip to release.

It was obvious the girl was in distress, but it didn't matter to him what so ever. He knew she had it, was keeping him from the beautiful dreams he craved so much. How could she so cruel as to deny him? She didn't deserve his sympathy or his pity.
His eyes held a feral glint to them, his grip tightening on her shirt. "The Grail...I know you have it!"
Yuki's voice was easily heard, considering he was standing right next to him, but he ignored him. But the man was determined to get his attention, and it was hard to ignore a tonfu shoved into his ribs. But with his eyes on the first he missed the second one hitting his elbow joint. Jason roared in pain, forced to let go of his captive. Thankfully while it hurt, the joint still seemed to function, and now he set his sights on a new threat.
"How dare you keep me from what is mine!" He snarled, hand placed on the katana as he belt. He dashed forward, withdrawing the blade from the sheath to slash across his midsection, wanting to gut the man for his insolence.

She stumbled back the moment Yuki stepped between them, forcing Jason's hand to let her go. It took several moments of hyperventilating, useless on the floor, before she could even think to try and understand what had just happened. But of course Jason was being manipulated, she'd been in exactly his situation, and the poor man had turned on her because of it - a fact he was going to regret when his mind was given back to him.
Unfortunately, as she watched him attack Yuki as well, she knew there was more danger at stake than just physical harm.
"Stop!" She screamed, scrambling back up to her feet and standing between them. She reached out to grab Jason's arms, her hands trembling even as they wrapped around his wrists. "He's not in his right mind, this isn't his fault. We just need to stop him. Help me - " Riley pleased up at Yuki, her eyes wide with desperation. She wouldn't be able to hold him in place for long, but neither would she let Jason hurt Yuki anymore. At least if he hit her, it would be retribution for what she'd done.
