When Vixen finally spilled the beans Sacarius stood there, completely motionless almost like someone had replaced the actual him with a statue, I see, so she has a more dangerous side to her then he thought to himself, the fact that she had managed to kill off all the people within a 2 mile radius actually caught his attention the most, Thats actually pretty impressive... he added mentally, seeing as how it must've been rather exhausting hunting down every last person within that particular circle just to be sure they didn't make it out alive. He was at a loss of words, undecided whether he could focus on more so on the seal that was granted to her by her own kind, or the fact that she was a killing machine if you ticked her off, which didn't seem to be too easy as throughout the years she must've learned to control her emotions, as she demonstrated earlier.

Finally Sacarius made a movement, bringing the hand he had slipped into his pocket back up to adjust his tie, "I'm sorry to hear that, I had no idea you carried such a heavy weight in your heart" he said, sounding rather concerned and almost a little on the nervous side. The darker tint of her eyes drew his attention, he started to wonder if she might be restraining herself right now, as reliving the memories must've been tough on her, the thought of her snapping came to mind and Sacarius really didn't need that right now. Maybe if he could connect with her on an emotional level she'd put more trust in him, he stepped away and began to pace back and forth "Theres nothing like it is there?" he asked, his face still showing signs of concern yet understanding, "Feeling helpless as you take the life of another, it consumes you, it becomes all you can think of once the act is done..." he added, stopping in his tracks "...and no matter how long its been from that day, the thoughts will return, trust me, I know exactly how you feel" he finished his dark little theatrics, recalling events from his own past, although just bits and pieces.

Vixen listened to what they said, finally returning her hand back to her side. Yet her eyes remained the same. She turned to Sacarius."You have no idea. " She was going to say something more but then Mera hugged her. Something she has never experienced before. Her face showing her shock completely, emotion that she normally hides showing.
After quickly regaining her composure, she laughed a little. "Ha, I've tried. Doesn't quite work out. Not once has my seal been un done since that day only 7 years ago." She shook her head and laughed it coming out forced. Coming from someone who wasn't used to actually showing more emotion then normal

Sacarius was amazed by how concerned Mera was for Vixen, she had only just met the girl and already showed the concern that a sister would for their sibling. Although was slightly offended that Mera would whisper something to Vixen, it seemed like something that someone with a lack of trust for him would do, he wanted to smile but kept the same face that he previously had, Well, I wouldn't blame her he thought, adjusting his tie at the awkwardness of being ignored as such. Bowing respectfully as Mera had, although removing his hat while doing so to prevent him from dropping it, "It good to see some people would be willing to help others through their problems as you have, for that I am grateful" he answered, returning his hat to his head.

Sacarius turned his gaze to his watch, it had been getting rather late and he had some things to take care of, he looked up at Vixen when she finally answered his question, bringing a hand up with only his index finger up and wagging it like an authority figure "Tsk tsk Ms. Vixen, why would you say such mean things?" he asked playfully, a single eye fully open to once again reveal his snake eye. He lowered his hand back down to his side, a serpentine smile on his face once again So she had figured it out huh? Good to see some people have working brains, otherwise this wouldn't be as fun he thought to himself, taking a step to the side with both his hands behind his back, "Well, I got to say you're partly right, y'see I'm what you might call a catalyst, I have a rather infamous person's soul attached to my own. If I don't keep my strength up, he'll take over and try to complete his previously unfinished work, not exactly a good guy either. Y'see these are his eyes, I'm surprised most people haven't tried to kill me just because they saw them, thats why I have my eyes as I do now" he explained, closing his eyes once again and giving a light shrug. In truth he was happy that someone figured it out, since Siera had spoken with him earlier and hadn't put it together and the funniest part about that? She was the one to kill him all those years ago.

Sacarius giggled lightly and turned back around to face Vixen, "Say, have you ever heard about the tale of the Heroes of the Realm?" he asked, knowing that the tale was widely told to children as it was a part of the realms' history: Many years ago, one man threatened to plunge a single realm into oblivion, the other realms fearing this power sent in a few of their best and brightest to put an end to him, in the end only two were still left standing against the madman, one was a famous swordsman and the other was a conquering warlord named Siera Serenity Star, they were lovers from different worlds. The madman took the life of the swordsman forcing Siera into an unstoppable rage, in this state she had managed to drive her sword into the heart of the madman. This was the tale of the Heroes of the Realm, celebrated men and women who stood united against a threat that could've driven a single realm into the abyss, a joke of a story if Sacarius did say so himself, because nobody knew the true story, and even then he preferred to let others believe in the other rendition.

When Vixen told him that she hadn't heard of the Heroes of the Realm story a big grin formed on his face, "Ohhh goodie, story time!" he announced with a slight chuckle, "Alrighty, well about 1000 or so years ago, a well known scholar found something he probably shouldn't have, a way to end an entire realm, the discovery of this must've drove him mad or something because he actually thought he could do it. Although the probably with that was, when he began his work it required that he build a large monolith on the tallest building that he could find, doing this sort of alerted a few key figures and they ran on back to their respective realms to inform their lords, councils or whatever they had at the time. So each realm saw this as a potential threat and formed a small group of their best and brightest to slay the madman and return the order" he explained, stopping to look down at his watch once again, seems like he'd need to reschedule a few appointments now, oh well, best to improvise as they always say. He brought his free hand up to hold his hat once again, "Anyways, the heroes made their way to the madman but despite their best efforts he managed to knock down quite a few of them, leaving only two remaining, one was a warlord from the demon realm in human flesh, the other was a famous swordsman at the time that came from this very realm, believe it or not, these two were actually lovers from different worlds, not so uncommon now but back then... Oh it was treason!" he further detailed the story, letting out some laughter when he mentioned the traitorous act of affection between the two. When he finally settled down from laughing he cleared his throat, "Oh but alas, all good things must come to an end, the swordsman tried his damnedest to take the madman down, only to find his own sword ripped from his hands and plunged into his throat. But y'see the warlord, ohhh boy, she didn't like that one bit she became unstoppable with her rage and stabbed the madman right in the chest, through his black heart, and there ends the story of the Heroes of the Realm" he finishes his little story and steps away, that smile of his never fading.

Suddenly a chain formed around Sacarius' right arm, wrapping around until it was down to his wrist a spearhead shaped like a snake at the end of it, "Y'see, what a catalyst is, is a person with a spirit embedded into their own, usually by choice, me? Not so much" he said, displaying the spearhead by raising his hand ever so slightly, "I got all his memories, all his desires, and even his cursed eyes, the first time I discovered that he had possessed me well... I was too weak back then, he took over and made a name for himself as the "Emerald Plague", a pretty scary guy once you get into his head" he continued to speak, sounding rather bored by it all now, "But now, I'm me again, I have his strengths and I've never felt better in my life, but I got to be careful about how I act, or else I might end up giving him the reins again" he finally shut his trap and flicked the brim of his head to reveal his eyes both open once again, that damn smile still plastered on his face. Of course this was all a lie, but she wasn't an expert on spiritual presences and the realms, so how would she know that he was in fact the madman from all those years ago? Not to mention he thought the lie was pretty convincing, he even detailed the reason why he could recall the tale of the Heroes of the Realms so easily, what with having a front row seat to it all.

Sacarius nodded his head as Vixen took the bait, or at least he believed that she did "Well, thats the think y'see..." he started, bringing a hand up to his chin and scratching nervously, "There hasn't been a single person with eyes like these, not that I've met anyways, that means that someone going to think the wrong thing and get me killed" he stated rather blandly, it was true, those eyes of his were sadly a big giveaway if you so much as even heard the tale of the Heroes of the Realm. He waved his right arm and the chain dissipated into thin air, "The nickname isn't anything special, its just the media trying to scare people, not sure if it actually worked since I haven't heard anyone talk about it for some time now... its for the best I suppose" he remarks, sliding his left hand into his pocket but keeping his right hand free to motion as he speaks, he had a tendency to do that, one he could just never break.

Sacarius took a step forward and tapped Vixen on the nose with his index finger of his free hand, "You haven't changed since then so I'd say you're doing a pretty bang up job on that" he teased, stepping back once more, a chuckle escaping him as he did so. He removed his hat once more and bowed again, "It is getting to be rather late, I'm sure you agree with me, so I'll be taking my leave, if you ever want to talk about this further just look for the Green Duelist" he said standing back up, and placing the hat back on his head. Turning his back to her he walks away from the area, heading back towards the school as he had some unfinished things to get done, as soon as he gets far enough away Vixen's iPod turns back on, stating low battery with the music paused.

-Exit-
