Vice walked outside, a growl resonating from deep inside of his chest. The Gigantos was slung over his shoulder, its breating stable. He continued to walk from the bar, having no real destination.

Fenris followed after him, watching Axel with a sad expression. "Vice... you... created Axel...?"

Vice did not speak for awhile, thee growl still coming from inside of him. Finally he decided to answer her question. "The person you know as Axel does not exist. Axel was an experiment made from the souls of three different creatures. One was a Gigantos who should have died in battle, but clung to life long enough to freeze at the battlefield. When I found him he could not survive with what little life energy he had... so, by request, I put the core of my son into him. The combination of the two made Axel." He did not look at her as he spoke and just kept on walking.

Fenris stopped walked, eyes going to the ground as she curled her hands into tighter fists. She body was shaking after hearing that. "Experiment...? Vice... you're cruel. Playing with life through science, no matter if it was to save a life... it's torture, Vice..."

Vice stopped after she spoke and gently lowered the Gigantos to the ground. "Torture is being alone infinately... I helped these creatures. The Gigantos did not want to die, so I kept him alive until I found a means to allow him to survive on his own. Something invaded my son's body and made him to horrible things... my son requested that he be killed and his core placed into the Gigantos." With a snap of his fingers a rip in the air appeared in front of him. The whole time he spoke he did not look at her. "I granted their wishes, neither died or was controlled... and yet I am still cruel? Fine then, cruel I shall be." He picked up the body again, this time throwing it through the rip.

Sapphira watched him for a long moment, then lowered her head in shame. "I-I'm sorry... I-..." She walked up to him, placing a hand on his arm. "I... I just hate hearing something referred to as an experiment, having been one myself..."

When Sapphira tried to touch him he moved suddenly away. He spun around as he did so, now looking at her. His silver eye looked down upon her with immense anger, no shine coming from it like normal. On the other hand, his red eye looked very sad... in response to this, Vice closed his red eye. "Do not touch me... And without a real name, he gets reffered to as 'Experiment.' And I am sorry that someone was so cruel as to experiment on you, but that does not give you the right to judge me. You know nothing about me, nor the ones I have come in contact with."

Fenris kept her head bowed, feeling as if she were being lectured. She kept curing to herself in her head for screwing up. Right as he finished talking, she walked off, further into the forest, staying as silent as possible.

For a moment Vice wathced her walk away. A part of him was just going to let her leave, but... "Stop." He said sternly, a hint of kindness behind his voice.

Fenris did as he said, stopping, though, keeping her head bowed still. She did not want to look at him, having lost the courage.

Vice walked over to where she was, moving himself in front of her. He did not do anything for a moment, then suddenly put his arms around her in a gentle hug. If she did not want the hug, all she would have to do is move. "I am sorry for my unkind words. That woman puts me in a foul mood and I seem to have hurt you in my anger. Is there something I can do to make it up to you?"

Sapphira leaned her head against his shoulder after a moment, closing her eyes. "I just want Axel to be alright, Vice...He had been nothing but kind to me, which in these times is hard to find."

"Do not worry about him. The body is stable, I will put him back into the chamber and he will be fine. Then I just make a slight modification to my theory and implant the stone again... and it should go smoothly." He smiled slightly and ran his hand up and down her back to comfort her. "And from now on I shall try to be kind to you, I believe you deserve it."

Sapphira nodded slowly, then brought a hand up to wipe the tears from her eyes. She nodded, then slowly backed away from him, forcing a smile. She hugged herself, staring up at his eyes. "Thank you Vice... I hope for my friend to be well soon then...?"

His red eye had opened, though it still looked sad. The silver eye had also calmed itself. "Yes, he should be fine soon. Already some of my helpers are preparing the Chamber. All will be well." He nodded to her and gave her a bit of a smile. "And if nothing else, I am a man of my word. When I say he will be fine, then he will be fine."
