NAME: Zulqarnain; goes by "Zul" ORIGIN: Given to him by Jeremy; Arabic for 'great king with many horns.' GENDER: Male DOB: October 31, 2008 STAGE: Sigel SOUL: Baphomet ESSENCE: Lava Ice Rock ORIENTATION: Pansexual, Polyamorous MARITAL: He has two very important loved ones. ALIGNMENT: Neutral Evil and struggling.
FOOD SOURCE: As a Sigel, he can eat human food to sustain himself. Minerals and sediment of rocks are his most fulfilling food source when recharging his power. He can snack on heat and cold, enough to tide him over, but 'snacking' on one more than the other throws off the opposing element.
LIKES: Sunbathing; unique looking beings; listening to and discovering music; playing with small animals; his fish; flying. DISLIKES: Being treated as less than an object; being ignored; television shows; long movies; close-minded individuals in regards to Raevans; ignorant humans.
PERSONALITY: From the day he was born, Zul has had little concept of personal space, rarely acknowledging the social protocol of a personal bubble and staying out of it. He's gotten better about it as a Sigel but he still tends to inch closer than is polite. The demon has an enormous ego, but it rarely gets in the way of dealing with others; he doesn't need anyone else to tell him how amazing he is, because quite frankly, he already knows. Acknowledgement and courtesy go a long way with this strange Raevan and his unusual mannerisms.
Zul's understanding of words and the power they hold expanded when he was a Frei, tutored and enlightened to the tales spun by flattery and compliments, something he uses to his advantage shamelessly as a Sigel. He has a great love of fighting and sparring; his tolerance of pain is remarkable. He knows his powers are great and terrible, but he has no desire to prove himself to anyone when it comes to his prowess. This once friendly being has darkened some with age, wearing secrets beneath his smile and a dangerous power behind his striking blue eyes. Not one to be walked on or brushed aside, he expects equal treatment from strangers and friends alike, having no tolerance for ignorant or willfully negative individuals.
POWERS: Molten - Active - Zul can generate lava offensively or cooled lava defensively. He can also use heat to his benefit. Arctic - Active - Zul can generate coldest ice or a cold touch. Regulate - Passive - Since he's grown, Zul's default temperature is lower than normal. It might have something to do with growing with Eternal Ice's essence within his form... Demon Blood - Passive - He's able to heal all his wounds - internal, external, flesh or bone - rapidly. He rarely bruises and shallow cuts are a near non-issue. Sixth Sense - Active - Zul can see the dead and those that keep them: angels and demons. He can interact with them and they him. Minor Possession - Active - If he touches someone who suffers an unnatural affliction, he can use his power to 'push' it out. This does not grant him any sort of control over the being in question.
[.STR] 72 - One of the strongest Raevans, he's a force to be reckoned with in a fight. [.END] 68 - Not only can he dish the damage, he can take it. His stamina is impressive. [.INT] 60 - He's learned much since his time as a Frei and is now more manipulative in his dealings. [.MAG] 58 - Potent, but yet still imbalanced, he can easily lose control if he's not careful. [.CHA] 57 - Though he's learned to groom himself to be proper, but still has no regard for how others view him. [.FRD] 56 - This once friendly Raevan is less so; he is less honest in his politeness. [.HMR] 50 - Zul's sense of humor is still dry, if not a smidgen malicious. [.CRT] 47 - He's a bit more deceptive and under-handed, having no time for imagination; critical thinker.
[ Frei ]
[.STR] 38 - Zul's highest stat. He is stronger than your average human but isn't quite a super hero. [.END] 33 - When he plays, he plays hard, and plays long. Good luck keeping up! [.HMR] 25 - He takes everything in stride and is generally passive in view; it's quite difficult to ruffle him. [.FRD] 23 - Polite with good manners. He tends to be touchy with those he considers his friends. [.MAG] 21 - Very strong when concentrated due to his nature, but limited. Over usage comes with consequences... [.CRT] 20 - Not exactly one to think outside the box; often straight-forward and blunt. [.INT] 19 - 'Common sense' confuses him; differentiating gender-specific words and possession is beyond his understanding. [.CHA] 16 - Zul's lowest stat. His smile is charming, but he relies on himself and doesn't much care what people think of him.

NAME : Alexandria "Alex" Vizcatti-Falcone GENDER : Female AGE : Born August 7th, aged 36 years OCCUPATION : Ex-Head of Research, Lab 305; Zoologist. RACE : Human ORIENTATION: Bisexual. MARITAL: Hasn't had the courage to try again. ALIGNMENT: Chaotic Neutral RESIDENCE: Gambino Isle
FAVORITES : The calming blue of the dark ocean beneath bright sky. She thinks big cats - like tigers - are the greatest thing ever. A peach bellini on a hot day is a guilty pleasure, especially paired with fettuccine alfredo. Movies with humor and action gain her immediate vote, but she's known to snuggle in front of a romantic tale or two. If a beat is solid enough to sway her hips to, she loves it; catchy tunes send her into fits of sliding across wooden floors in her underwear. DISLIKES : Thinks diamonds are just expensive glass and that gold is 'icky.' Never had a taste for marzipan. Large groups of people make her uncomfortable. Can't help but wrinkle her nose at hard liquor. People who stare at her scars makes her self-conscious. She's always found it hard to talk about herself, finding that defining any one part of her as difficult, if not impossible. Matters of the heart are clumsy and ill-tended in her hands. HOBBIES : Her work is her life. The pottery wheel is her one place of pure zen. Animals are like family: she collects them when possible. Finds coffee shops to be a good place for reflection and peace. Enjoys learning new things and has a knack for languages. Likes to box and run on the beach for exercise.
LOOKS : 5'8", 160lbs, naturally olive skinned; her frame strong with work muscle and comfortable curves. Her hair is a matte black that rests halfway down her back, oft pulled behind her head in a bun with the tips splayed messily in the effort. Vivid eyes of kelly green shine beneath severe and unshaped brows, set over a sloping nose and perpetually smiling cupid bow lips. Alex is a living roadmap of scars: her left leg, from just beneath her knee to her ankle, is a mess of scar tissue; she has a circular scar over her left hip (front and back); a small, vertical one just below her neck next to her spine; barely visible surgical scars on the outside of both forearms; a stretch of lightning threaded scars from the right side of her neck almost to her elbow. She is mostly found in a comfortable tank top and a pair of jeans, preferring casual comfort over fashion.
PERSONALITY : Spunky, outgoing and fearless, complete with the scars to prove it! She has a view on life that borderlines obscene optimism, warm of heart but a bit lacking on the social skills department. Alex doesn't let that stop her from trying, which will frequently land her in strange but humorous situations. The Italian generally gets along with everyone, suffering from foot-in-mouth syndrome more often than not but truly meaning well. Kind, generous and considerate of others, she goes out of her way to do anything she can for those she would call friend; Alex is fiercely loyal, but step on her bad side and you may never find her favor again. Stubborn and headstrong, she can be extremely serious when it comes to her work ethic and what she expects of others. The woman is quite intelligent beneath her layers of goofy and playful banter, wanting to be the one folk can rely on in a pinch; this can lead her to be somewhat inconsiderate of her own well being, to the point of being reckless if it comes between her and someone close.
HISTORY : Alex was the second child born to Isabella and Giovanni, her brother Brad five years her senior. She was raised with a strong sense of family and loyalty, brought up by her artistic mother and 'business orientated' father; she later found that her father dabbled in less altruistic endeavors, but his heart was in the right place and she never forgot that. He died in a harbor 'accident' when she was eleven; her mother followed him a year later, medically of an enlarged heart. Alex lived with some family and friends for a time before entering college with the intention of being an anthropologist. Two years in, the feisty woman changed majors without warning, picking up zoology instead. She aced the course and graduated with flying colors, quickly attaching herself to a firm on Gambino Isle, favored for the odd or questionable jobs dealing with the local habitat. It's said she had a hand in the domestication of the Gwee and their brethren. At the start of 2009, she began working for Lab 305, and in 2014, she suddenly disappeared from it without warning or good bye. She's seen working zoology again, and if anyone questions her, she doesn't seem to know what the 'Lab' is...
Be careful when you are holding this jar, as inside sat a peculiar piece of rock that is hot and cold at the same time. Ridiculous right? Everyone knows that fire melts ice, and water puts out fire. The two elements cannot ever co-exist with each other. But upon this rock which Kyou discovered in a post-volcano eruption ground, is the embodiment of fire and ice. The heat within the rock which was a piece of the volcano should've subsided and harden into a rock now, and there shouldn't be ice on it. What a mysterious rock isn't it? But again, I have to stress that you need to be extremely careful as you hold the jar, because the fire portion of the rock is extremely hot, like lava from the volcanoes; and the ice tip is extremely cold, like the tip of icebergs in North Pole.
[It is important to note that Baphomet as Zul's soul is NOT a Satanic god, but instead a high ranking demon.]
Baphomet is a name of unestablished origin. It first appeared in trial transcripts during the Inquisition of the Knights Templar in the early 1300s. Some modern scholars believe the name to have been an Old French corruption and misspelling of the name Mahomet [Muhammad].
However, in the 19th century the name came into popular English-speaking consciousness with the publication of various pseudo-history works that tried to link the Knights Templar with conspiracy theories elaborating on their suppression. The name Baphomet then became associated with a "Sabbatic Goat" image drawn by Eliphas Lévi.
Baphomet, as Lévi's illustration suggests, has occasionally been portrayed as a synonym of Satan or a demon, a member of the hierarchy of Hell. Christian evangelist Jack Chick claims that Baphomet is a demon worshipped by Freemasons, a claim that apparently originated with the Taxil hoax. Léo Taxil's elaborate hoax employed a version of Lévi's Baphomet on the cover of Les Mystères de la franc-maçonnerie dévoilés, his lurid paperback "exposé" of Freemasonry, which in 1897 he revealed as a hoax satirizing ultra-Catholic anti-Masonic propaganda. Lévi's Baphomet is clearly the source as well of the later Tarot image of the Devil, in the Rider-Waite design. The downward-pointing pentagram on its forehead is enlarged upon by Lévi in his illustration of a goat's head arranged within such a pentagram, which he contrasts with the microcosmic man arranged within a similar but upright pentagram.
The symbol of the goat in the downward-pointed pentagram was adopted as the official symbol—called the Sigil of Baphomet—of the Church of Satan, and continues to be used amongst Satanists.
Filled Soul Bottle & Fel Essence Alex never saw them herself, but she knew: all stories had to start somewhere.
Zul, the Frei Beauty and intruige, fearsome and fascinating; the Guardian and the Raevan regarded each other as one in the same.
Zul, the Sigel It'd been a long, hard road out of hell, but she had a great fear in her heart that hell came with him. [Cert]

Being redone.

Raevans
Anastacia :: ❤❤❤❤❤
It's taken near a life time for both of them, but it seems their upstart in first meetings has become a bygone. Zul views the spider queen with a bit more fondness, if not some guilt - she is family to him, even if she doesn't view him the same way. They're starting down the path of building something better.
Basil :: ❤❤❤❤❤
He's not sure they've met, but he recalls Alex asking him not to be judgmental of him.
Cesc :: ❤❤❤❤❤
The stag is one of the most other-worldly individuals he's met, and in a good way: he isn't strange, he isn't immature, but is an old soul with a very steady and respectable outlook on life. Zul enjoys Cesc's presence immensely and finds solace in the peaceful moments they share.
Cordelia :: ❤❤❤❤❤
He hasn't seen the femme fatale for so long that he isn't sure when they last DID cross paths -- he simply knows she'll always be precious to him, no matter where their lives take them.
Cruz :: ❤❤❤❤❤
He's met the crocodile briefly. Though he'd like a more active part in the other's life, he's not sure it'd be welcome, given that Zul feels responsible for him.
Domevlo :: ❤❤❤❤❤
Met briefly in passing; he has no opinion.
Eirdirsceol :: ❤❤❤
Without question, Zul looks down on the minty Sigel for all his bravado in the name of his brother and clear hatred of the demon, but he refuses to give Eiry the pleasure of his ire. The Wisp had given the Baphomet a great deal of trouble when they lived together, making 8 months of his life a miserable existence. Because the vile trickster is precious to his Rivener, Zul has never spoken a word of it, cold in reception to Eiry but without resentment. He just doesn't like him very much.
Ethiriel :: ❤❤❤❤❤
He's met the silver beauty a few times; though he's done all he can to see her smile, he's only been around her in sadness and reservation, unable to reach her past her repose.
Lazarus :: ❤❤❤❤
Time has tempered their friendship, along with the mistrust of his relations with Xiu. Zul has felt his admiration dwindle with his own encroaching darkness, making efforts to avoid his old friend now, especially with the seeming abandonment after Alex's accident.
Lucia :: ❤❤❤❤❤
He'd never do anything to compromise his friendship with the kitten - he'd take lives to see her happy - but she's been absent from him for so long, he simply hopes the best for her.
Luka :: ❤❤❤❤❤
Met briefly, but has no real opinion of him outside of being a troubled soul.
LuLu :: ❤❤❤❤❤
He hasn't seen the ink rabbit in a long time, but he still thinks fondly of her and will always consider her most special.
Melisande :: ❤❤❤❤❤
He's sure there are words to describe what the Muse means to him, but he hasn't found them yet. If Rivener is the night, swathed in promise and delight, then she is the dawn of day, the first touch of spring in an eternal winter, joy and beauty incarnate. She is delicate, but he knows she is not incapable: he knows well that rose has thorns. He is proud, every day, to be able to see her smile and know that she see's him - and wants to be with him, even with his darkness that wells within.
Revontulet :: ❤❤❤❤❤
His relationship with the Aurora is fairly new, but Zul has become immediately fond of her after a meeting beneath manufactured stars. She's more mature than most of the Frei's he's met, earning his interest and trust.
Rivener :: ❤❤❤❤❤
The Scorpion saw him at his best, his worst and everything inbetween and still remained by his side, a feat Zul had weighed his own moral compass by in how he deals with others. Rivener taught him much as a Frei and believed in him when no one else did, the likes of which very literally saved his life in the most dire of moments. He loves the dark Sigel with all his being and would do anything for Rivener to be happy at his side for all their days. Zul takes great pride in Rivener being his, and does what he can to make his beloved satisfied in their life together.
Sevilin :: ❤❤❤❤❤
The first Raevan Zul met, Sev has always had a mixed image of a delicate flower and a stubborn princess in the demon's head. He doesn't really know Sev anymore, but is positive in memories about him.
Vyn :: ❤❤❤❤❤
He hasn't seen Vyn in what feels like a lifetime, but he'll never forget the Rose; her darkness and delicate nature paired with her immeasurable strength and steadfast resolve have made her special to him, a silent guardian to her well being.
Xiu :: ❤❤
He doesn't hate Xiu, but every interaction has been a bad one since Xiu mysteriously dislikes Zul. The demon does not forgive Xiu for attacking Alex without apology.
Zurine :: ❤❤❤❤❤
It's been hard for Zul to warm up to Zurine - no pun intended - given that he still feels responsible for her death. She is not the same Raevan, however, and through a few meetings of mutual displacement, he is starting to turn around his behavior around her.

Humans
Alex
Anita :: ❤❤❤❤❤
Zul is terribly fond of Anita, thinking her 'fantastic' largely due to his Frei-affection for her as an employee of a video game store. Since then, he's found that she is spunky, has her own set of opinions that he rather enjoys and that more than most, she is capable. He trusts her, and it's no small feat. As such, he is responsible for the essence that gave her Cruz, something he is mighty proud of.
Aphismet :: ❤❤❤
The demon does not like Aphismet. What once started as a great like and enjoyment of the man as a Frei quickly dwindled into annoyance and distaste, thinking the man to be utterly oblivious to what was going on in his own house and useless in matters of making his woman happy. He does not approve of him dating Alex and routinely tries to sway the woman towards others he finds more 'worthy.'
Brad :: ❤❤❤❤❤
This man is his, through and through. Brad - or 'Bear,' as he likes to call him - taught him the things that Alex could not, specifically about roles in society, politics, familial life and that emotions were not reserved for opposite genders. Zul learned the hard work of physical labor and comradery of working as a team at Brad's workplace, as well as many truths about the diversity of human kind from his coworkers and the man's open mind. Zul has largely been responsible for nudging the man to remember that there's more in life than work, especially during the times Zeke was busy.
Kyou :: ❤❤
To Zul, Kyou is the root of all the bad things that have happened to his woman. Of course he understands the warlock is responsible for him being alive, but he doesn't feel it excuses the way Kyou is reckless and constantly putting others in danger with his lack of information or active presence in Raevan lives. It's ill misplaced, but the demon does blame Kyou for all the bad things that have happened both to Alex and his fellow Raevans and as such, he has a hard time finding compassion for the man. He's beginning to think the warlock's eccentric behavior isn't a show and that the man is just genuinely that oblivious, something Zul is trying to come to terms with, even if it isn't right.
Neil :: ❤❤❤❤❤
The Irishman hardly knew what hit him when Zul decided he belonged to the demon. He once likened the man to a human appearance of Rivener, which immediately endeared Neil to the Sigel. Neil taught him about work ethic and how to use his power without letting it get out of control, an invaluable lesson. He also learned how to balance his power as a byproduct. Zul will always be grateful to Neil for not ostracizing him immediately, and is one of two suitors he enjoys trying to push Alex to, especially given that the red-head has a long standing history with the Italian.
Shepard :: ❤❤❤❤❤
Zul is trying not to like Shepard, he really is, but it's a losing battle. He reasons that any man who can be around Alex, Vivi and Cesc all the time and not spend his life in worship clearly has issues. On the other hand, he respects Shepard's aloof nature and strong presence, especially during the summer he helped Alex. The demon begrudgingly admires the man and does rather enjoy his presence, despite his lingering jealousy of Shepard's remarkable place in life. He is the second individual that Zul constantly tries to steer Alex towards.
Vivi :: ❤❤❤❤❤
Oooh but Zul is about two steps away from stealing Vivi away and flying into the night with her. This woman appeals to him in the most comfortable, sensual way he's ever known; despite her being human, he finds that they click, as though their darkness matches or at least, their 'demons' get along well enough to keep each other company. He can't quite put his finger on how the woman has ensnared him, but she has, and had Vivi not had the relations she had with Alex, he very likely would have courted her himself.
Zeke :: ❤❤❤❤❤
Like Vivi, Zeke is two steps away from Zul claiming him as his own. He's has an enormous love and respect for the human vet, not only because he makes Alex happy and is Brad's better half, but because of the life he exudes and the sheer joy he brings to the room when he enters. He thinks Zeke's sense of humor is the best and gets along with him on par with what Zul would consider a best friend. Despite not seeing much of each other, he thinks well of the man, and looks forward to a day when he can see him on a more frequent basis again.

Thanks PB, I'll have to fix this cluster at some point.
Frei
keepit's art gifted by soutou. snuggaboo's art gifted by ...? Honeybii's art gifted by ...? (I want to say Herb??) Kay-Ray-Zee's art gifted by Ravina Loki. [Sakura]'s art gifted by ...? (Or was this one Herb??) SO SORRY GUYS, I only saved them with the artists. E NE;
Monday night, the hour hand just ticked past number twelve on the face of the clock. The moon was bright and round in this particular night, a full moon. If werewolves do exist in this world, tonight would be the night where they prowl the streets, or the forest, whichever they prefer. A low cloud drifted across the moon, shrouding it's light that shone onto the land below, the streets were dimmed. Street lights flickered a little as a sudden cold breeze ruffled the trees outside the laboratory. But other than that, the night was oddly quiet tonight, too quiet for comfort.
Kyou stood just outside the lab doors, sipping on a cup of warm hot chocolate. He just thought some fresh, cool midnight air would do him good after cooped up in his laboratory for so long. Ears perking up he listened intently to his surrounding. Strange, even the crickets are not chirping, no frogs and certainly no cicadas either. The silent was so intensed, it's starting to hurt Kyou's ears somehow. Fighting a shudder from the creepiness that surrounded him, he decided it's best to get back inside the lab lest a werewolf decided to appear.
But as he turned around towards the lab reception doors, a sudden noise not far behind him caught his attention. Although the break of silence pleases his ears very much, but the nature of the noise scares him. It was the sound of someone breathing very heavily, as if out of breath, or hungry for something that they're too excited, and it seems to be growing louder by the second, as if the sound is slowly approaching him. Whatever it is, Kyou is not going to wait outside to see. He dashed back into the lab behind the glass lab doors without a back glance as fast as his long legs could carry him. He locked the doors and stared out into the darkness, if anything tries to attack him, at least the glass doors will become a barrier protecting him, he hoped.
He squinted into the darkness, looking for any sort of movement that may be the source of the sound. It was really dark outside since the moon seemed to be hiding behind a cloud still. But vaguely, he could see a figure not very far from the lab entrance. It was small, and hunched, and definitely too wobbly to be a werewolf. The figure slowly approached the lab, as it passed a lamp post that litted up his face, Kyou recognised who the face belonged to.
"Jeremy!" Kyou exclaimed, unlocking the doors immediately and rushed out of the doors. Grabbing Jeremy just in time before he collapsed onto the floor.
"Jeremy! Are you alright?!" Holding Jeremy in his arms, Kyou placed a hand onto his chest. Only to come in contact with... blood? Kyou stared in shock at the blood on his hand, his eyes fell onto the trail of blood that Jeremy left behind on the streets. It must be really bad if he's bleeding so much.
"No! Jeremy!!" Kyou screamed as the weakened man passed out. Despite the cold midnight air, Kyou was sweating. His hand was shivering slightly, but he tried his best to stay calm. Drawing in a deep breath, he checked Jeremy's pulse. "Thank God..." he muttered in relieve. For a moment there he was so afraid that Jeremy had died. But he still have a pulse, although it was weak, and he was still breathing too.
Backpack? Baphomet?? Kyou wondered, confused. Jeremy wasn't carrying any backpacks when he collapsed. Taking a look around his surroundings, he narrowed his eyes to see clearer in the dim lights. There, about 10 feet away from them, sat a backpack on the ground. What was so important in the backpack?
Before that though, he had to send Jeremy to the emergency ward first. If only Tsu is in the lab right now. But he's probably sleeping at home or getting himself drunk in a bar somewhere. He couldn't just leave Jeremy here alone out in the dark. Desperate, he cried out. "Help!! Anyone around??! I NEED HELP!!! HELP!!!"
A week had passed, and Jeremy had finally being moved out of the Intensive Care Unit. His condition is stable now but he is still unconscious since he was admitted. The doctor said it's probably due to his age as well, his body couldn't recover as fast as younger people do.
Kyou had been visiting him every other day, hoping that he would wake up soon so he could ask him what exactly happened. He is still in possession of the filled soul bottle that Jeremy gave him, and he still don't know what to do with it. The smoke in the bottle had been swirling violently all this time, so violently that the bottle even vibrates sometimes. Kyou is worried that whatever soul is in it might break out on it's own soon if he don't do something about it.
As he sat in his office with the soul bottle settled on the table, he stared at the furious soul swirling behind the one inch thick glass. He can almost be sure that whatever is inside the soul bottle is the thing that injured Jeremy so badly. If this was one of Jeremy's exorcist jobs, he could just kill off the demon or ghost, why would he capture it in a soul bottle? Kyou wondered. Jeremy knew very well what the soul bottles meant for Kyou, so does this mean that Jeremy wanted Kyou to use this to create a Raevan? He wondered as he stare at the soul bottle, which had just started to vibrate gently on the table.
Picking up the bottle, he hung it by the ring on a hook to prevent it from breaking itself by vibrating against the hard table surface. If that is what Jeremy wanted, Kyou will do it then. Besides, since it's already in a soul bottle, waste not, want not. Dragging out his box full of fel essences, he clicked open the lid to start searching for a fel essence to go with the soul. He wasn't sure what soul it was, but judging from Jeremy's scope of exorcism works and his wounds, he could roughly guess that the soul was of a demon. And he mentioned 'Baphomet' before..? He couldn't be sure. Rummaging through the box, he had a good one in mind to use for it.
Careful not to touch the glass directly, he pulled out a jar by it's lid. A large chunk of rock sat inside, one tip covered in ice, but in the other edge you could see the insides of the rock burning. Kyou had wanted to use the Lava Ice Rock for a Raevan, because this was one of first fel essences he found. He felt like this is a good time to use it.
Standing up, Kyou went to grab the soul bottle to prepare for the Raevan creation process. But as he took a step forward, he forgotten that the fel essence box is still in front of him, and he tripped, falling face down onto the ground. He heard a sickening crack on his face, which is probably the sound of his nose breaking, and another loud crash not far ahead of him. His winced hard as he lifted up his face to look. The Lava Ice Rock sat idly on the floor of the lab, broken glasses scattered about it which was used to be the jar that held the fel essence. "Damn it." Kyou cursed under his breath. The jars were designed to resist extreme temperature, but they are still not indestructible. But perhaps the fall had blurred Kyou's thinking, or maybe it had affected his judgement somehow. Or maybe the pain on his nose was affecting his brain, he just knew that he must get the Lava Ice Rock. And without a second thought, he went and grabbed it with his two bare hands. An action that he regretted immediately as the extreme heat of one end burnt his left hand and the ice tip of the other stung his right hand sharply. "AAAAAAAAAARRRGH!!!!!!" he screamed loudly as he dropped the rock onto the floor, his left hand scorching in excruciating pain, he could see his skin burning off! While his right hand stung like no other as the ice burnt his hand like how dry ice would. The combined pain was so intense, that Kyou keeled over, he fell sideways onto the floor and felt himself losing consciousness.
Right at this moment, Lazarus burst into Kyou's office. He had heard the scientist's scream and rushed here to check what was happening. "Oh my God KYOU!!!" he shouted in alarm. Rushing to his side, he checked on Kyou's wounds, his mind racing. He needed to do some quick temporary first aid treatment on Kyou's hands before it's too late. He took note of the piece of fel essence laying in open air on the floor and the shattered glass. Somehow, he felt his head throbbed for a moment when he stared directly at the fel essence. Annoyed, he looked away and focused on heaving the semi-conscious Kyou up and dragging him to the adjacent bathroom with all his might. He turned on the cold water tap of the bath tub and dunk Kyou's hands underneath the running water.
"UUURRGH!!" Kyou groaned loudly and his body jerked from the contact.
Grabbing on to Kyou's arm, Lazarus held his hands under the water steadily, just in case he jerked his hand away. Kyou was almost unconscious at this point, his nose still bleeding profusely from the fall. He needed medical attention, and he needed it BAD. Moving Kyou around, Lazarus adjusted his position so that his hands stayed under the running water at all times. Then he headed out to call an ambulance. As he passed Kyou's office, he saw the fel essence again, and the Baphomet soul bottle hanging on a hook, waving slightly. Sighing, he picked up the phone in Kyou's room and dialed for the ambulance. He will finish Kyou's work later for him.
