The soft melody in the water was soothing to her. If she didn't have to be anywhere else, she would have loved to remain here longer.
Hearing her phone buzzing, Ava lifted her head from the water, she moved her hand over to grab her skellyphone that she had brought along, almost forgetting it entirely, and checked the text received.
With a snap of her phone, Ava stood to her feet and started towards the exit. Now..here's hoping she didn't get lost along the way..
(( Exiting ))

As soon as the fallen angel stopped struggling, even for half a second, he knew he'd gotten the upper hand. Cain knew her well enough to know what pressed her buttons, was smart enough to know how to press them just right, and was just enough of a d**k to do it without hesitation. Bella went still in his grip, and his silver eyes maintained that steel-like quality, keeping himself at arms-length from the pain he knew he was inflicting on her. He didn't miss those tears. If he could have, he probably would have drank them in a glass like a fine brandy. He hated her, more than he hated nearly anyone else -- he could be cruel to anyone, but not like this, only a few could put him on this destructive path, like he had some sort of vendetta. Like crushing her might appease something inside him he wanted to crush in himself.
Her struggle was weak for a moment, but the demon didn't relinquish his grip even the slightest, knowing even before she started that she would thrash and fight. This, too, he drank in, and it fed that dark anger, even as he struggled to hold her. Taking a step forward to steady himself, he pulled her harder against him, shaking her again to try to still her, the water around them churning violently because of their fight.
"Why, so you can go crawling back to that stupid flipper bird?" he hissed again, eyes narrowing, "So you can give him that pretty little sad look you wear so well, and he can wipe away your manipulative tears, call me a p***k, and you can think, for one second, that you're going to live happily ever after? Why isn't he here then Bella? Huh?!"
Cain gave the fallen angel one last shake, staring down at her furious expression before half shoving her back into the water, panting a little both in his own fury and their physical altercation. One of the rings she had been wearing had come off in his struggle with her, and for a second he looked like he might throw it at her for good measure, his eyes flicking down to it. After a second, he merely gave her a dismissive look, snorting under his breath.
"Go ahead and try it. See how long that lasts."
Slipping the ring onto his finger, he turned to leave, leaving something he seemed to have wanted to add unsaid.

"DON'T YOU ******** TALK ABOUT ROWLY LIKE THAT YOU DON'T GET TO TALK ABOUT HIM YOU DON'T EVEN DESERVE TO BREATHE THE SAME AIR AS HIM YOU SON OF A b***h-"
She tore through the air, flinging herself at him as he turned away, and latching herself to his back. Her hands grabbed every strand of hair she could get, and she pulled, and pulled, trying to bring him down so she could drown him in the water and be rid of him for good.
"I WISH YOU WERE DEAD." She spat out in a vicious, and heartbroken cry. "I WISH YOU WERE ******** DEAD. DEAD." The last word cracked, her voice breaking in agonizing hurt. "WHY CAN'T YOU JUST. ******** hands stopped pulling, and she pushed off of him, dropping down into the water in a messy clump, and she put her hands into her face and ******** you, Cain." She sobbed out through her tears. "******** ******** you."

Skylar frowned again and shook his head.
"Zeke, I don't think you know the difference between 'borrowing' and 'stealing.'" He said. Staring curiously at where the flowers had previously been. Where had they gone? "In fact, I do believe your version is one and the same."
Oh boy, lecture time~
Fortunately for Zeke the topic was quickly dropped and forgotten, since Zeke decided to bring up the whole slime and water issue again.
"I'd sooner smell like snails than step into that water!" He said quickly, putting his hands up in defense. If Zeke thought he could wrestle him into that pool without a fight, he had another thing coming! Though just before anything could happen his phone went off.
"Hmm?"QUIBBLE Are you sure you are saving a human? I don't think you should pry any further if that is the case. Meet me in my office ASAP so we can discuss together this situation.
"Time to go to the chop..." He groaned, slipping the skellyphone back into his pocket.
On the bright side, that text has just saved him from the pool.
Exiting to Quibble's office!

Westhor, who had fallen asleep somewhere, woke up at the vibration of his phone. The text from the professor caused him to whine, mostly to himself now that the cave was pretty empty, before he picked himself off the floor and exited the area with the rest of his peers.
--
Malcolm had spent a long time wringing his clothing dry; for some odd reason, his classmates seemed to like pushing him into the body of water, which had... Became rather odd as time rolled by.
As the students filtered out the caves, so did he; he had a meeting to attend, after all.
[Exit for both!]

The demon was barely listening at this point, his back to her as she screamed obscenities and insults, adjusting the ring he'd slipped on. He'd achieved most of what he'd wanted to accomplish, sort of, his anger having mostly dissolved into a deep, dark sort of loathing coupled with a satisfaction. The rings were still on her fingers, save the one he had stolen, but where that had been a primary objective before, it came secondary now -- a minor loss he was willing to ignore. Wading back towards the edge of the pool, he began turning his attentions back to the cavern itself, his eyes shifting around the edge to where only a few more people lingered. Most of the students having left during their fight, which was fine by him. He wasn't paying hardly any attention to the fallen angel at that point, if any at all, having fazed out her screams almost entirely, so when she launched herself at him, Cain almost fell with the force of her body against his back. It was only a well-placed step that stabilized him, allowing him to catch himself and her before they went crashing into the water. Snarling angrily again, he reached back to grab her by the shoulder again, trying to pry her off him even as she pulled at his hair, fingers digging into skin ruthlessly until she finally let go.
For a second, as he spun around to face her again, he looked absolutely furious. There was a hellish fire burning in his eyes, his fingers curled into fists again, and for a good second it looked like he might actually hit her. Instead he just stared, listening to her cry for a good few moments, barely picking out her curses as she sobbed through her fingers. The tears didn't seem to evoke any pity from him, but at least they quelled his anger -- muscles relaxed underneath taut skin, blood returning to his knuckles. His expression, too, evened out again, that look of disinterest taking over again, like he was watching something boring or listening to a speech he didn't believe in. After a few moments of this, he finally started moving towards her again, crossing the distance between them.
"You're a mess."
Leaning down, Cain reached under the water to scoop her up, hooking his arms beneath her knees and behind her back to carry her bridal-style. He didn't know if or for how long she'd allow this, but that suited him just fine -- he'd already proven he was not above dropping her.

And she was a mess. She was. But that didn't mean it was Cain who got to try to put her back together again. He lost that right a long, long time ago.
The tears stopped when he picked her up, as if she had turned the knob on a faucet. She looked up at him, and the look in her eyes was pure unbridled evil. She grinned toothily, and her leg came up to kick him right in the crotch.
Yeah, he was going to drop her. Yeah, it was worth it.

There was that half a second where he was anything less than a monster. The truest form of a monster, the type humans related themselves to when someone was so heartless and cruel that no other word would do, the type that they tried to make the halloweentowners out to be.
And then that half a second was gone.
He knew half a second before she did anything that something was up. He'd known, even before doing it, that the reaction would be something along the lines of what she did, but that stupid part inside him, the part he had been trying to crush ironically, had ignored it. He'd turned his eyes down at her, eyebrows lifted skeptically as she'd stopped crying, and that toothy grin was enough. Cain let go of her a second before her knee came up, glancing off the junction between his legs and narrowly avoiding what could have easily sent him into the water completely. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to save him completely -- spitting a curse, the baphomet curled his shoulders a little in pain, a shudder running through him. He didn't turn his attention back to her, even after he recovered enough to straighten, his eyes staying closed as he merely stepped over her, reaching up to snap his collar.
Giving her any more anger would have given her far too much credit. He was, however, willing to give credit where credit was due.
"I suppose it's true, then -- I should have never trusted a whore."

There was another chuckle from the behemoth before the gave the other boil a light pat and stood. The fact that he was getting so bent out shape over this amused him to no end. Still, it was probably wise to stop teasing him.
However, though Avery opted to stop teasing him, Dis was just starting.
Poor boil.
Fortunately, Jinhai was there to stop him, or try. It was probably impossible to stop Dis from acting like.... Dis. Not that it lasted too long either way. Shortly after, just about every skellyphone went off, causing most of the students to depart. Which meant he probably should as well.
"Well, its been fun, but I think I've seen enough oddities for the day. See you around."
Exiting!

Unfortunately, Cain was all too used to Bella's mood swings - really, it was why he'd dumped her in the first place. So he wasn't going to be surprised when she suddenly started laughing madly, and splashed water at him over and over.
"AHAHAHA LOOK WHO'S TALKING, ONE OF THESE DAYS YOUR d**k IS GONNA FALL OFF!" She giggled, sounding more like a playful child than a vindictive b***h, and started kicking the water around her, before getting back to slapping it with her hands and splashing him relentlessly.
"Is this the first shower you've taken in like a month? BETTER MAKE THE BEST OF IT!"

She was completely right, by this point he was used to her mood swings. He hadn't tolerated them very well, if you could even say he tolerated them at all -- the first time she had completely batshit on him, he had dropped her so quickly that people had been surprised. Which was saying something, considering Cain lost interest in most women very very quickly. This had been different though. She had been an exception in almost every case he could think of, from his initial deviation from his 'normal type' of ghoul all the way to the way he still used every opportunity to get under her skin. Their screams had made the walls of the demon dorms shake, and he didn't just mean when they argued. That last fight, where he had quite literally dropped her outside his door and shut it in her face, he had almost been surprised at how angry he had been -- even as they fought, in the back of his mind there had been this incredulous voice that pointed out he had never given any of the other girls even half as much attention as he was at that very moment, screaming at her.
Surprisingly, now that he wasn't connected with her, her rampant mood swing didn't faze him at all. Turning his body a little to face her, Cain watched the water as it hit him, doing little damage to his already-soaked suit before flicking his eyes towards her, lifting one brow as he was so wont to do. "You're a crazy b***h," he finally offered, no malice in the least in his voice, merely the type of interest one got from watching a trainwreck.

Bella stopped splashing, and gave Cain a surprisingly fond smirk. "Yeah." She agreed with a nod. "I am. And you loved me." She walked by him, and smacked him hard on the a** - but she just kept going, head tilted just slightly back to give him a smug glare. "Sooo.. what does that make you?"
She kept walking. Let him chew on that for a while.

Cain had never felt so silenced in his entire life. So stunned, that as she walked by, once again slapping him on the a**, he had no retort. It wasn't until she had almost left the cavern completely that he thought of something, belated though it was. And by that time it was too late. She had left him standing there, alone, knee deep in the water, surrounded by the gold treasure beneath the surface, staring after her with a look in his eyes with an emotion that most would never admit existed in him.
And he would never forgive her.
Exit~

"Oh- er..." He blinked when she never really answered his question. As Moira suddenly ran off, Norvie snapped out of his moment, shaking his head before rushing after her, "W-wait up! Where are you going??"
