"Arianna...I would never discard you." He told her as he took a step closer. "After all, I need someone willing to do what needs to be done in my new world. One that is flawless and without those who would seek to hinder its glory. And as for your brother? Well, if you were to accept my proposal, I can...remove...the vampirism from his bloodstream."

"Without those who would seek to hinder it's glory.. it's kind of you. To say all of that." Arianna figured that Irina would've loved Felix, really.. well, the Irina of the past. "...Explain the "removal" to me."
-
"The plague I created eats away at the blood cells in the boys streams rapidly to the point where there is little oxygen flow to his brain. Because of this, the body changes and evolves into one of my creations, a feral. It seeks blood from outside sources to sate its own blood. I cannot guarantee your brother will not feel pain in the process that is long and annoyingly tedious to explain...but he won't be converted into a mindless beast either."
-
"...I understand." Arianna sighed, nodding with some amount of approval. "...The Dojo would not help me, for being the daughter of a maniac. The Dojo would not help Isaac, for being a traitor, and one who hungers for power. Alex is dead. Falk and his daughter are likely dead. Whoever takes control now.. will be another god among men, concerned only for themselves under their facade. If I returned, there would be no change. Just a celebration, and boom - nothing. ...Thank you for the choice, Felix. I will accept your offering." Arianna didn't know if she was being played or not. But Felix was her only ally, the only person that was there for her and Isaac. She nodded, placing her fist over her heart in some sort of pledge.

[spoiler]RED ZONE[/spoiler] "Ah..." Felix said as he walked closer to Ari, so that he was in speaking distance. He put his hands behind his back as he walked and held them together, nodding in approval. "Arianna...this choice...it was the right one, I assure you." He told her. "Together, we can take control of this imperfect world and make it beautiful. And you, will be at the helm..." He told her as he got even closer to the girl.
-
Arianna had a good idea of Felix's true goal. If he would not toss her aside, if she was equal, and if she would be "at the helm".. "Stop where you are." Arianna whispered sternly, her voice laced with poison. "...You're right. A plan [i]is[/i] always logical - so you'd turn the emotional, ex-Dojo girl that bested you in combat as a "perfected" slave, wouldn't you? Not cast her to the side, or simply kill her." Arianna was hiding away her fear, buying herself some time: she could not allow Felix to get close, yet she had to keep watch on his magics, too..
-
Felix raised an eyebrow at the girl as she spoke. "Mmm. These are your own thoughts, not mine Arianna." Felix told her. "If you truly think that, then I suppose this deal of ours cannot continue. But if you put aside these paranoid thoughts, you will rule the world..." he told her as he denied her order and took another step closer, so that he was able to look her in the eyes and was a hands reach away.
-
"Alliances and promises are built upon trust." Arianna backed away, out of hand's reach. "You give me no reason to trust you.. but I [i]want[/i] to help you. I want to help conquer and control this world, and wretch it from the Dojo's hands!"
-
"Then what must I do to earn your trust...Arianna...?" Felix asked. But Ari could hear a hint of annoyance as he spoke.
-
Arianna stared at Felix, biting her lip for a moment. "You know of my capabilities, and my powers. I know nothing of your's, necromancer. I know naught if you will save Isaac."

Edited by Inflatablepants: 7/1/2017 8:08:39 PM"I will show you my capabilities, Arianna." Felix told her. However before she could pick up on the ominous tone of the crown Prince's voice she heard the smashing of the pavement behind her. Before she could turn she felt the smack of the tendril hit her back as she was sent flying towards Felix. Then, she saw the sharp spike of ice in his right hand brought up as she flew towards his opened left hand. Her throats was caught in his cold grip and he slammed her into the ground, giving her no time to recover before he brought the spike of ice down, and stabbed her through her stomach. "But, I've changed my mind. If trust is the only thing you rely on, and knowing a paranoid girl like you, I will never earn that trust. So, you will die. And I will simply take the world myself."
