Rathka_Final_Judgment walks in, a shaded figure obscurred by a thin black mist. His clothing is all black, from head to foot, and he wears a viel over his face so only his eyes, which are dull and dead, are visible. He is a Shadow Kindred, one with darkness. His suit is enchanted so when he is standing in darkness he is invisible. He has twin katanas strapped to his back, each four foot in length and razor sharp on one side. He flickers even as he stands there, as if not full physically present

Mistress_Tylantia enters slowly, grinning mischeviously and holding a long battle hammer in her right hand using it as a walking stick... her red shoulder length hair waves in a silent breeze as well as her pale green robe and her yellow eyes glint golden in some unknown light... Her striped markings, claws, and fangs label her not human, yet, her proper standing position and body proportions make her also not fully beast... she is a mix of both and a somewhat deadly combination...

 Mistress_Tylantia looks at rathka quite intrigued

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "so... why do you hide yourself so well?"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment sings "Long December" by Couting Crows to himself, ignoring Tylantia's words to see how long she will stand his ignorance

 Mistress_Tylantia smirks, amused, showing her fangs as she stands upright, holding onto her hammer quite casually

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...are you ugly?"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment eyes twinkle for a moment, just a brief moment in time, totally betraying his entire stature, as he sings his favorite part of the song, recalling his last great moment in time before his eyes go dull and dead again as they settle on Tylantia

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "disrespect is unwelcome"

 Mistress_Tylantia narrows her yellow eyes at him, her pupils becoming slits "I was only trying for your attantion, my dear fellow"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment reaches over his shoulder, unfastening the clasps on his katana's sheaths and sliding them out, making no sound as they leave the scabbard as the rest of him remains totally still, not even his clothes moving. the blades are just as black, totally unreflective, even the razor sharp blade, making him look like a living shadow

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "rest assured that you have it"

 Mistress_Tylantia smiles a bit, a fang sitting on her lower lip. She makes no move but just stares at him with her searching eyes "...will you tell me about yourself?"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "what is it you wish to know?"

 Mistress_Tylantia looks at him and points a clawed finger at him "what are you?"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment stares back at her blankly before speaking in a raspy voice much like that of dry sticks being dragged across concrete

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "i am a shadow kindred"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "i am nothing of this world"

 Mistress_Tylantia twitches her ears and then puts her finger to her lip "what is a shadow kindred?"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment looks taken aback that she isn't familiar with his type

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "i am part shadow and part flesh"

 Mistress_Tylantia raises an eyebrow and an ear at the same time

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "is that so?"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "that is why i have problems coexisting in this dimension"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "when i am in darkness i am at home, invisble to mortal eye, but perfectly at home with others of my kind"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment flickers even as he speaks as a lightbulb does when it is about to die out

 Mistress_Tylantia nods slowly and her smiles fades into a look of seriousness and almost even a hint of sadness

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I understand..."

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "i am twice as fast as a normal man in full sprint, and it doesn't even wind me"

 Mistress_Tylantia smiles again

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "and I am almost fast as a cheetah..."

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment smirks under his viel

 Mistress_Tylantia squints her eyes moreso than before

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...why do you keep yourself so hidden?"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "because of who i am... it is never good to directly behold a shadow kindred, it can be dangerous to the beholder"

 Mistress_Tylantia nods slightly, not understanding in the least, her ears pricked up straight

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "why not?"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment shakes his head

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "you ask entirely too many questions for my liking"

 Mistress_Tylantia frowns slowly, showing her teeth

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "and you are to hidden for mine"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "you are bringing yourself very close to harm by your incessant questioning"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "oh, like I'm afraid now... for once, I try and be nice. Look where it gets me"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I never should have taken that old sage's advice"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "he knew nothing"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "lost 65 gp on the bastard"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment snarls, stepping forward and menacing her with one katana

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "you are bringing yourself very close to my wrath with your insolence"

 Mistress_Tylantia growls to herself and then looks back to rathka, quite disappointed in his actions

 Mistress_Tylantia puts both hands on her hammer shaft and croutches a little

 Mistress_Tylantia mumbles "wrath... right..."

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...I was merely trying to be nice. Don't your kind like that?"

 Mistress_Tylantia hisses "Being nice isn't one of my specialties

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "I am going to kill you very soon unless you start practicing that"

 Mistress_Tylantia growls and then starts to laugh

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "you're going to kill me?!"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "yes  i am"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "do you intend to stop me?"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...wait wait... so if I hand cuff myself and hand myself over to you... is that being nice? Or maybe I should just take your katana and run myself through"

 Mistress_Tylantia giggles a little and looks back to him taunting playfully

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment snarls once more then decides he has taken enough from her

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "your little game isn't amusing me in the least bit, child"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "you had better end your jest before i end it for you"

 Mistress_Tylantia gets offended and flattens her ears to her head

 Mistress_Tylantia whispers "I am not a child, sir"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "you act like a girl"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "but I'll teach you to act like a lady.."

 Mistress_Tylantia growls

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment laughs

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "i guess i won't"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "because im going to kill you and consume your soul!"

 Mistress_Tylantia backs up a step, crouching as she does so

 Mistress_Tylantia looks at him, squinting her eyes and then stands up straight, her ears flopped onto the side of her head

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...you consume souls...?"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment steps into his attack, rushing forward in a blur, his speed almost too fast to follow as he holds his katanas out in front of him. as he nears tylantia he leaps into the air and spins midway through, coming down behind her and swings both katana's, the one in his left hand coming horizontally at the left side of her neck and the one in his right hand coming horizontally at her right side, just above the hip, closing together like a giant pincer

 Mistress_Tylantia while holding onto her weapon, rolls forward and to her right as he comes down on her and swings her hammer around to the right, holding it firmly at the middle part of the hammer, aiming for his back, aiming for it to hit its target about the time his feet touch the floor

 

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment brings his katana up and over his shoulder, holding it vertically behind him, his right arm over his shoulder, the four foot long katana more than long enough to block the hammer. as the hammer hits his blade, he spins 90 degrees to the left to face tylantia and swings it upward at her left armpit

 Mistress_Tylantia pulls up on the hammer and takes a step left (and forward) 90 degrees, feeling rathka's blade painfully hitting her under her arm, but moves quickly enough for it not to be too serious. As she is stepping, she swings her battle hammer up a lil and then across at rathka's stomach

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment steps back, rotating his left wrist downward so it is on a 45 degree angle and pointed at the floor as it intercepts the hammer, knocking him slightly back with the force of the blow, he is about three feet from tylantia when he swings the katana in his right hand in a horizontal arc from right to left at the left side of her neck, having still a foot or so of blade behind her to prevent her from simply stepping back out of hte way

 Mistress_Tylantia throws down the hammer, ducks her head, flattens her ears, and slams herself at rathka with amazing speed, her arms outstreached in front ov her, claws erect, and missing the blade entirely and getting nothing but a bump in her hard head from the blade's hilt, hoping that she will knock him down

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment grunts as she collides with him, feeling the pointy ass claws puncture his skin, his whole body flickering madly as if he is going to simply die out very soon. even as she forcese him back and he feels himself slipping, he braces his feet out behind him and pushes himself forward, laying the katana in his right hand with the edge at her back as he attemts to saw into her flesh using her own momentum to try and prevent her from escaping

 Mistress_Tylantia growls at the sword at her back and thanking god that she's a bit furry, she digs the claws on her feet into the very floor as she tries pushing him down, pressing her own body as close to his as possible, her natural instincts kicking in as her teeth bare and bite at his neck and each hand of her 5 inch and a half long claws reach around him and try to scratch from one side of his back to the other

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment leans back as he brings his right foot up, wincing as the claws tear through his thick clothing and into his flesh, making him flicker worse than ever. however, he puts his foot towards her guy, right above her belly button, and tries to propel himself back off of her, while at the same time dragging his katana back in an attempt to lacerate her from mid-back to her left shoulder

 Mistress_Tylantia drags her claws across his back and as his foot comes up, her teeth snap down at his ankle and her arms fly out, claws extended trying to hit his arm as he tries to cut her with his katana. Her tail also attempts to wrap around rathka's other leg that holds him up (as all this is happening) and yanks back, hoping he will fall

 

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment winces again and lets out another grunt of pain as he disentangles himself, feeling sharp teeth bite into his ankle and equally sharp claws scratch his back through his clothing. he falls onto his back and scootches across the floor with his elbows, holding firmly onto his katanas which may be his last line of defense, *cont*

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment *cont*and climbs back to his feet about ten feet from his enemy, holding both his blades at a ready angle, letting her make the next move in his little dnace

 Mistress_Tylantia takes a step back gains her composure and wipes her mouth. Looking down at her slightly furry hand, red stains and mats it down, signaling a hit. She narrows her eyes at him and picks up her battle hammer slowly, wanting to speak to him, but not sure if she should

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment takes a deep breath, his first dep breath of the fight, feeling his strength return with it. he is ready for another round as he stares at her, his dead eyes glaring with an evil gaze that is both emotionless and cruel at the same time, he wants her to approach him, to make the next move.

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "cumon, show me your stuff kitty"

 Mistress_Tylantia wipes her hand on her robe and inspects the cut on her arm quickly, licking it before turning to rathka and matching his evil gaze

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I should rip you to shreds..."

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "do it"

 Mistress_Tylantia smirks holding her battle hammer once again, feeling a safeness with is weight in her hands. She looks to Rathka and takes a step forward, slowly and almost taunting, swaying her hips as she moves, her tail hanging lightly in mid air. She puts her hammer on her shoulder and smiles

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...but why should I?"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "because if you want to keep your soul you would be open minded enough to fend for your own life instead of DEfending"

 Mistress_Tylantia growls slightly and focuses in on him once again, her senses finely tuned after her short rest. She sprints straight for him at slightly under cheeta speed, and as she is only feet from him she takes her hammer and does a spin, balancing perfectly aiming to smash in his ribs (and anything else the weapon may hit) as her tail, seemingly with a mind of its own, slides up towards his leg to wrap around it

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment reacts, seeing her coming at him and watching her spin he immediately knows what she is going to do. he holds the katana in his right hand upright so that the hammer with clash with it and with the katana in his left hand he swings down with all his might, trying to sever the head of the hammer from the haft, but the force of the hammer striking his blade is enough to know him back a foot or two

 Mistress_Tylantia smiles as the katana nearly severs the hammer head off and mutters a "let me help you" as her clawed fingers find their places and press down firmly... an unnoticable 'click' is heard and the head of the hammer spins so that it is in line with the handle. She twists her hammer up and around *cont*

 Mistress_Tylantia *cont* rathka's katana, aiming at his arm/chest area and hits the last place needed to release the head of the hamme and fires. The hammer head will disengage itself from the handle with jet propulsion type motion and blades extend from the aiming end of it as it is released from the handle

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment let's a screech escape his lips as the head of the hammer slams into his gut and knocks him back a little more. However, his proximity relative to the contraption didn't allow much time to accelerate, so, impaled as he is, he isn't much unbalanced. *cont*

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment *cont*with his strength waning he slashes his twin katans with all his might, both inward at her neck on either side, trying to decpitate her, alteast two feet of blade behind her as he slashes inward and slightly downward as well

 Mistress_Tylantia moves forward again quickly, bit still getting hit in the head by a hilt and in the same shoulder as before with ont of his blades. Grabbing ahold of the hammer head that just impaled rathka, she tries wrapping her legs around him to cause him to fall

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment falls backward, his katana's falling from his grasp as he hits his back and feels a sharp pain in his stomach. he reaches down and yanks the hammer head out of his gut and tosses it aside, thankful that his thick clothing didn't let the blades go in too far, and stands up, managing to get hold of one katana as he climbs to his feet, one hand over his wound

 Mistress_Tylantia throws down her hammer handle and looks at him tiredly. Not tired in body, but tired of this nonsense. She croutches, claws extended, and stares at him intently with her golden eyes, searching for rathka's drive and almost feeling bad for what she'd done

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment snarls vicously as he steps back away from her, kicking the discarded katana far across the floor to prevent her from getting to it. with his remaining weapon in hand he watches her, almost stalking as he circles, not finished at all, though blood soaks his black suit, making it glisten in places

 Mistress_Tylantia watches him with her eyes narrowed, her entire body tensed for attack, her ears plastered back to her head, and her teeth slightly bared. She hold her claws out in front of her for defense, watching him circle. She shakes her head every once and awhile to make this guilty feeling leave her head

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment moves in closer, about five feet from her, waiting for the perfect moment to move in and strike. his katana blade glistens as well, it being the one that hit her arm. he looks around and directly behind him he spots a candleabra. with a smirk beneath his viel he spins and cuts it in half, knocking the candles to the floor and extinguishing them. a shadow fills that part of the room as he vanishes from sight

 Mistress_Tylantia suddenly drops to all fours and lowers herself to the ground, very comfortable in the position as she opens her eyes wide, letting her pupils dialate and then adjust. They glow like an animals, catching a glimpse of light every once and awhile to show her presence. She tries focuses in on rathka's body heat, although very hard to bcause of his thick clothing... she lets her surroundings come in to focus as her sight adjusts

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment leaps out of the nothingness suddenly, with a scream that isn't even worldly he is right above tylantia, only a few feet from her back. his knees are tucked up under him and the katana is pointing tip down, all four feet of it aimed dead at the middle of tylantia's spine, only a few inches away from her skin when he leaps now and decending with all his weight as his body madly flickers with anger, hatred, and rage

 Mistress_Tylantia spins her head around, only to watch rathka's blade decend... Having no way of completely missing the blade, she tries throwing herself the opposite way of where he is coming down at her and forward. She feels his blade go in through her side, close to her stomach, but close to the edge of her body right abov her hips. She cringes slightly, now seemingly at his mercy for the moment

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment with his blade inside her he has nothing left to do but yank outward as hard as he can, attempting to shred the flesh from her body in one wrenching movement

 Mistress_Tylantia she stiffens every pat of her body and as soon as the blade moves, she tries moving with it, as futile as it seems. The blade cuts deep into her and she immediately curls into a ball as his katana leaves her. Shivering she realizes he is behind her and most likely ready to cleave her in half completely. She smiles slightly and speaks slowly...

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...this was my own fault..."

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment smirks slightly as he stares her down

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "i know"

 Mistress_Tylantia feels his cold gaze upon her and shudders but keeps talking

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I let myself feel sorry for you"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I don't know why I liked you..."

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment mercilessly raises the katana above his head, a shadow kindred knowing nothing of mercy as he poises himself to finish his work and consume her soul

 Mistress_Tylantia she cringes, her ears lying flat against her head as she turns to him like a kitten would looking at him with her glowing eyes, melded with fear

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment blinks his dead, emotionless eyes at her without pity, looking for the part of her to cut that would me most appropriate to take her soul from

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I should have realized what an ass you really were..."

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment scowls beneath his viel as he brings the sword down at her body, aiming to sever her head from the rest of her so he can access her soul and consume it, thus healing himself and all the damage she caused him during the fight

 Mistress_Tylantia ignoreing all pain, she pushes herself forward with an adrenaline rush like none other and rolls away from his sword, it missing her head but slicing her thigh

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment growls, wondering how she is still alive after the abuse he put to her, and walks over to where she lies, stepping directly over top of her, stradling her body as he raises the sword, aiming it for her chest, and brings it down with all his might, trying to plunge it right through her heart and end the fight once and for all

 Mistress_Tylantia rolls over and grabs onto his leg, letting the blade graze down her back deeply and whispers as loud as possible

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...it hurts..."

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment raises an eyebrow

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "does it now?"

 Mistress_Tylantia shakes while holding onto him as if for dear life and nods, gritting her teeth

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment slams his katana to the floor and turns and walks away from her, mumling under his breath

 Mistress_Tylantia lies on the floor and watches after him, a pool of blood reaching out slowly across the floor as she tries to reach for him, knowing he's his only hope

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment turns and looks back down at her

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "what do you want?"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "i spared your life as it is, what else do you want me to do for you?"

 Mistress_Tylantia whimpers slightly, biting her lip and tears staining her striped face

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "help me..."

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "please"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment gasps at her...

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "im a soul consumer, not a life saver"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment gets an idea

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "then make it all go to hell.... it hurts...."

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "i can take your soul as your body dies, then heal your body, then put your soul back into it"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment brightens up

 Mistress_Tylantia would raise an eyebrow, but doesn't have the strength

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "do it then... "

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "it will be much faster without your soul because closing the wounds on a corpse are easier than that of a living person"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment steps over top of her again, staring down into her eyes

 Mistress_Tylantia is a bit disgusted but agrees, nonetheless

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "it could hurt, but you will be healed in the end"

 Mistress_Tylantia looks up at him sadly

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment slowly puts his hands on her cheeks, placing his face close to hers and pulling the viel down. his skin underneath isn't a bit disgusting or otherwise abnormal, but rather very handsome and tanned, still filled with youth

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment slowly begins to take in deep breaths, feeding off of her own breath as he draws it into him, his body solidifying fully for the first time as the flickering stops and he appears fully physically present. now a thin black tendril creeps out of his sleeve, the another. then one from his opposite sleve

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment the tendrils are more of a mist, the same which accompanied him into the room, which now begin to seep from the seems of his suit all over his body, the neck, waist, ankles, everywhere, all curling around tylantia as he continues to breath in deeply, taking her life gently and painlessly rather than doing more damage to her body.

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment even as he does this he can feel the tendrils of black mist curling around her soul and beginning to yank at it, trying to dislodge it from her body and pull it into his possession, but taking a soul from the living is much harder and requires much more power, so he concentrates souly on taking her life first

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "just close your eyes and give in"

 Mistress_Tylantia looks  up at the most pleasant thing she has ever seen and tries to smile and mouth the words 'I'm sorry' as she closes her eyes and lets everything go

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment feels her breathe her last and immediately siezes the soul to himself as it begins to drift upward out of her body. rather than pulling it inside of himself to consume it, he keeps it close to himself but with no harmful intentions, letting the tendrils of black mist form a sphere around it where it hovers above his head as he prepares to set about his work

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment satisfied with her painless death he lets more tendrils of black mist whisp out of him and surround her, this time targeting all of the wounds which he had inflicted during the battle, closing his eyes, devoid of emotion, and letting his other senses take over as they seek out the vital areas where her blood seeps out

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment lets the tendrils slowly begin to flow into the injuries of her lifeless body, the bleeding halted and her body beging to cool, he needs to hurry now as he starts to close up the wounds in his own manner, all along his mouth moving silently only centimeters above her face as he chants

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "knit bone, darn flesh, stitch skin, weave breath, so it follows in this suit. you have no broken  bones, so let us just close up those lacerations"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment speaks more to himself the seemingly evil tendrils begin to pull the wounds together, bringing them back and closing up her exposed insides. finally, he runs the tendrils down the surface as the scar begins to vanish as if it is something that can simply be brushed off, and so it follows with all of her body's wounds, being acted upon in teh same way

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment lets out a long breath as the largest wound, the one in her side, begins to close and he stares at teh soul which hovers above his head, not quite ready to manifest it into her yet. he still has to follow the last leg of the resurrection, so he leans close to her, his eyes gleaming for the first time with something close to life as he draws face down to hers, closer than before, and touches his warm lips to her lifeless ones

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment slowly exhales into her mouth, not just air, but a part of his life, a part of himself, something that cannot be replaced, as if part of himself is going into her as he does this, but he feels no remorse at his actions, no regrets at giving part of him away, and with the life he imbued in her, her body begins to work again

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment knows that even though her  body lives, her soul contains her true self and the body is just a shell, so he sets about restoring her soul right off, first bringing it down in front of both of them where he holds it sturdily in place and begins to unwrap the tendrils from around it

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment stares down into her eyes, which are no longer glassy with death, but his own eyes have returned to their normal state. as the tendrils slowly unravel from underneath, there seems to be nothing inside, thus being the way of souls

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment begins to push down with teh tendrils, pushing it against her body directly over her heart, and the tendrils slowly flatten as if nothing was ever encased inside, but in actuality her soul has returned to her body, and he smiles at his work with exhaustion showing all over his young face, but he draws his viel up before she can behold him

 Mistress_Tylantia feels a sudden jolt of energy as life starts pulsing through her veins once again and she takes in a long, deep breath of refreshing air. Before opening her eyes, she places her hands behind Rathka's head and then opens them slowly, focusing her glowing eyes on him, staring at him in wonderment, contemplating why he had mercy on her... she only has more questions now

 Mistress_Tylantia looks up at him carefully and tries to focus in on his face, squinting as her fingerstry and pull his veil from his face

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment doesn't resist as he keeps both hands on her shoulder, blood trickling down his fingers on his right arm, but he doesn't mind as he stares down into her eyes

 Mistress_Tylantia pulls her hands back and removes his hood, her eyes growing wide and then shrinking in horror

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "whispers "I tried to kill you....""

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment is at a loss for words and oblivious to everything around him at the moment

 Mistress_Tylantia swallows and looks at him wondering if he's okay or not, for once in her life, feeling bad for the fighting

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...I'm sorry... I'm so sorry..."

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment nods to her understandingly, reading her face and eyes, her body language, feeling everything about her and actually feeling remorse for once in his life

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment coughs a bit and realizes that the blades went in his stomach a bit deeper than he thought

 Mistress_Tylantia narrows her cat-like eyes at him trying to read his actions. She licks her lips and looks aar him carefully, putting a claw to his soft face

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I have to heal you..."

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I don't know how to heal"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...wait"

 Mistress_Tylantia tries to think and starts to cry slightly

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "it's ok"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "i heal quickly"

 Mistress_Tylantia looks up at him, almost embarassed of her tears

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...oh"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment smirks, lying through his teeth, but letting his face show nothing, his voice sounding not at ally what it sounds when his viel is up

 Mistress_Tylantia studies his face carefully and touches the side of his mouth and then looking at it, a small red dot

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...its blood"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "don't worry"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "I'll be fine"

 Mistress_Tylantia shakes her head slightly

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "If I hadn't been so stupid...I shouldn't have asked all those questions..."

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment smirks again, taking her hand in his to get it away from his face and wiping the blood from cornerof his mouth with his viel, swallowing that in his mouth as best he can without being obvious

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I should have left you alone. If I did that, you'd be fine"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "We both would"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "you are fine"

 Mistress_Tylantia breathes deeply and her eyes get hot filling with tears

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "but you're not, and that hurts me"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "Cause I know I did it"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment closes his eyes, shaking his head

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "you did what you had to do to survive. if i hadn't been so selfish neither of us would've ended up like this"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment hums Daydream Believer to himself as he stares longingly into her eyes

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "thank you so much...."

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "for saving my life"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "don't"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "now, tell me what to do to help you"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I owe you so much"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "if i hadn't killed you, you would've needed no help"

 Mistress_Tylantia ...

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "you owe me nothing"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "But I was the one taunting you"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I deserved it after that"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment shakes his head

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "you should have just taken my soul..."

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "my own immaturity drove me to that"

 Mistress_Tylantia thinks about how immature she is and almost laughs

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "please, tell me how to help you... I want to do something for you"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "yeah... I wanna"

 Mistress_Tylantia reaches up and slides her hands to the back of his head pulling towards her and leans forward closing her eyes, pressing her lips against his softly

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment closes his eyes in turn and lets himself be kissed by her, moving his hands back onto her shoulders and up her neck until he cups her face in his hands, kissing her back delicately and realizing how rude he is for laying on top of her like a dope

 Mistress_Tylantia breaks off the kiss and looks back at him her bottom lip quivering a little. She looks deep into his eyes and sighs

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "what is wrong?"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I want to help you... somehow"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment frowns and wipes a streak of blood off of her lips then stands and wipes his own moutn

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "ill be fine"

 Mistress_Tylantia frowns and brings her knees up to her chest, stretching a bit

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "does it strike you odd that you were dead for a few minutes?"

 Mistress_Tylantia slowly stands as if on new legs and then loks at him

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...I find it... strange"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "i know"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "but i must be going"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I..."

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment puts a finger over her lips

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "when you see me tomorrow I'll be right as rain"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment laughs a bit

 Mistress_Tylantia looks up at him

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "i'll have to buy a new outfit after what you did to it and what jotham did earlier. hehe. But don't worry, I'll be fine when again we meet"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "if you're not, I swear I'll hunt you down..."

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "...and heal you "

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "or try"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment smiles as he walks over to his discarded katana, sliding it into its sheath with a drawn out painful movement, then walks unsteadily over to the other one, sliding it in crossing the first

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "if i don't come back tomorrow"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment says, "im probably still shopping..."

 Mistress_Tylantia looks at him

 Mistress_Tylantia smirks

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "you're funny..."

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "uh... no hard feeling over all this"

 Mistress_Tylantia says, "I still feel terrible"

€  Rathka_Final_Judgment turns and walks out as thin tendrils of black mist creep up around him and his body flickers like the beating of a heart. finally, the mist surrounds him somewhat and he finally blinks out, returning to his own astral state and leaving his voice to carry through the room and back to tylantia "none at all!"
