[i]A chuckle escaped Yuria's mouth as she turned towards the bullet on the back of her neck, staring straight at it's shell.[/i]
"A: If I told you, you'd kill me anyway. You act as though I haven't been in a situation like this before. Lay down your weapons, call off your sniper, and your Hollow doesn't end up in an even worse state. And when I say that, I mean it.
B...I didn't know Royal was going Hollow. When we met, he...he was depressed. Crazed. I didn't know how to react to him. He was so different...I wanted to help him, I could have...but my top priority was Anri.
And C? I don't want Royal to kill Anri, you dingbat. Where the hell did you hear that at? Unless...Unless he's gotten to that point in Hollowing...Oh dear Kaathe."
[i]Yuria sounded as if she was actually deeply worried about Royal's condition.[/i]
"...It doesn't matter now. I'll help him after this, Anri deserves more attention."
English
-
[u][b]If you want even the smallest chance to help Anri, you need to stop threatening to make her worse. Just tell me what you are going to do.[/b][/u] *Vorim is clearly not playing around. He seems to be getting a little angrier because she doesn't seem to be taking him seriously. Another shot is fired, the bullet stopping just before it hits her mask.* [u][b]I am the only one keeping your head from popping, and I can pop it if I want to as well. Tell me.[/b][/u]
-
"Oh, so now you're telling me to stop threatening. Yet if I don't tell you how I'll help your Hollowed friend and my previous student, you'll kill me. Mm. I expected something like this...[i]especially from a Sphirinian.[/i]" [i]Yuria then began to laugh manically, before eventually calming down. She seemed much more serious now, although she was staring at the new bullet.[/i] "It is Halloween, isn't it? Anri would probably want to go trick-or-treating. I should've gotten her a costume or something, alongside this." [i]Reaching into her pocket, Yuria drew a human-like object, faceless and old, yet it possessed some sort of power - the ability to cleanse someone, to free them from the chains of Hollowing. A Human Effigy, an item that didn't require the murder of a human being.[/i] "...Now, do you know what this is?"
-
*His ears lay back and his eyes narrow at her.* [u][b]You are the one who was in the wrong. I have the right to threaten you. Being a Sphirinian has nothing to do with it. If you want forgiveness, start acting like it.[/b][/u] *He looks down at the object curiously.* [u][b]Sketch told me, it's an effigy. That's not going to work forever though. We need something permanent.[/b][/u]
-
"The only way to make Anri permanently cured is to kill and consume the soul of a Fire Keeper, or sit upon the Throne of Want. And I would not recommended either of those choices. She would die before we even obtained the soul, or even defeated one of the Four.. So no. There is no permanent cure to Anri's condition. This is a fate she knew she would suffer, at the beginning of her journey. And she took that risk. She took the risk, and thus...look at her now. I just want her...to be happy, jolly...worry-free once more. To act like she was with...Vio. You wouldn't know Vio, but...she and Anri were more than friends. Inseparable. I wish she was like that once again. I want to see her that happy again. Especially now, when she has matured and...grown up. ...Can you bring her out here? Please?" [i]Yuria had mixing emotions at this point. Depression, guilt, sadness..the list continued. She sounded genuine, and in truth, she was being genuine.[/i]
-
[u][b]Or, she can take someone's humanity. She will still be a hollow even with an effigy. She can't be worry-free if she is only going to turn back to being a hollow. I knew Vio, I knew how happy it was. You forced her to become a hollow, you forced her to do all of those horrible things.[/b][/u] *You hear another gunshot and Vorim once again, stops the bullet.* [b][u]You can probably tell what our plan was.[/u][/b] *Another shot is fired and Vorim stops it as well. Extremely faint and distant cursing can be heard.*
-
"Then kill me already. G-Get it over with. But before I go... Tell Royal...I-I love him. A-And that I'll always be there. Always." [i]Yuria stuttered a little within the sentence, as she sheathed Darkdrift and fell to her knees. She fumbled with her steel mask, taking it off and lying it to the ground, revealing a pale, older, angular, and crying face. Her jet black hair was tinted with grey, and hung loosely at her shoulders. She stared right into one of the bullets. The one that would tear through her skull.[/i] [i]Footsteps could be heard within the Dojo. Someone was coming to the entrance.[/i]
-
*She reached a hand under her arm, hoisting her back up.* [u][b]Shut up and get back to your feet. I'm not going to kill you, yet. Royal is going hollow and we are still debating whether killing you will make him worse or save him, although Sketch has already made up his mind, I have not. You are going to permanently restore Anri to who she was. I honestly don't care whether you live or die, but we also have Royal to deal with and whatever events you said would conspire if you died. So I have no choice but to at least let you try finding someone who deserves to die and to try to convince Royal not to murder anyone so we can actually help him. Sketch thinks that he somehow convinced Royal to go on a murdering spree in your name, and so you have got a very big mess that needs cleaning up. [i]GOT IT?[/i][/b][/u]
-
[i]Before Yuria could even respond, the gates to the Dojo opened, revealing a slightly furious Hollow.[/i] "VORIM! Let her go! NOW!" [i]Anri stormed out of the Dojo and straight towards Vorim and Yuria, who became much paler at the sight of the Lord of Hollows. Anri didn't seem angry at Yuria...but at Vorim. The question was...why?[/i]
-
[u][b]Stay back Anri! I'm just helping her up![/b][/u]
-
[b]Yuria:[/b] [i]"...A-Anri? Why are you so angry at V-"[/i] [b]Anri:[/b] [i]"I'm not angry, I'm DISGUSTED. Holding my mentor at gunpoint, with the original intention of murdering her?!"[/i] [b]Yuria:[/b] [i]"Anri-"[/i] [b]Anri:[/b] [i]"No! This is absolutely disgusting!"[/i] [b]There was something very different about Anri, that was for sure.[/b]
-
[u][b]Anri! Our plan was to kill Yuria! You were okay with it! She wronged you! She made you a f@&$ing hollow![/b][/u] [spoiler]Don't you dare tell me she went insane without dying. Don't tell me she thinks she's the lord of hollows now... Is Yuria meant to die here?[/spoiler]
-
[b]Anri:[/b] [i]"And I forgive her for it! Nothing she can do will change me! Nothing she can do will permanently help me! You need to let go of the past, and accept her. I forgive her for what she has done. What happened years ago is unchangeable. She seems to want to actually try to help..and you'll holding her at gunpoint, with a sniper from afar shooting at her?! What's wrong with you?!"[/i] [b]Yuria:[/b] [i]"Anri. Calm yourself."[/i] [b]The Hollow began to calm down immensely, although it looked as if she was sweating. She was actually angry about the entire situation.[/b] [spoiler]Anri forgave Yuria for her previous actions. She's researched Hollowing, and has come to the conclusion that nothing will help her. Not Yuria's death, not humanity...nothing. And you'd be surprised to see someone you knew about to get shot by a supposed friend, wouldn't you?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]You said humanity would f@&$ing save her! And Yuria is not a friend! Vorim and Sketch are![/spoiler] [u][b]YOU'RE WRONG ANRI!!! YOU ARE WRONG!!! I AM MAKING YURIA FIND A WAY TO SAVE YOU PERMANENTLY!!! AND EVEN THEN, SHE STILL HAS OTHER ISSUES THAT NEED FIXING![/b][/u]
-
[spoiler]Dude, a Firekeeper's Soul would fix her permanently, not humanity. Humanity fixes her until she dies, then she'll be Hollow once more. With a Soul, she can die for an unlimited amount of times, unless her soul is literally taken and crushed.[/spoiler] [b]Yuria:[/b] [i]"Both of you, calm down!"[/i] [b]Yuria's attempt at peace didn't work, as embers started to swirl around Anri.[/b] [b]Anri:[/b] [i]"Let. Her. Go!"[/i]
-
*His voice suddenly becomes calm but filled with anger.* [u][b]Anri. We are trying to help you. Please don't attack me for caring. I know that Sketch loves you, in a platonic way of course. The second I'm alone in a room with him he either starts talking about his kids or how he is going to save you and stop Royal from murdering you in Yuria's name. He has been obsessing over how he is going to help you and return you to who you were. If he cares that much about someone, I should too. I am TRYING to get Yuria to help us permanently save you. Please, don't attack me.[/b][/u] *By the time he was done talking, his expression had softened and he actually looked extremely upset.* [u][b]I want to see Sketch relaxed again. He's gotten better about public breakdowns but all bets are off when he's alone.[/b][/u]
-
[b]The Lord of Hollows fell silent, fit once, and the embers swirling around her dissipated away into the air. After a moment, she turned her back to Vorim and Yuria, beginning to walk away from the two.[/b] [b]Anri:[/b] [i]"Tell Sketch I said hi. And that if he wants to chat later, I'll be available."[/i] [b]The previous Unkindled stormed into the Dojo, leaving both the Sphirinian and the Sable behind.[/b]
-
Edited by Skatch142: 11/5/2016 9:09:23 PM*Vorim turns back to Yuria, the upset look not disappearing.* [u][b]N-Now. Do y-you understand t-that you need to help us c-completely clean u-up your mess? Do you promise th-that you a-aren't going to s-start something else a-and ruin more p-people's lives?[/b][/u] *You've noticed that the anger is gone, replaced by sadness as he stutters like he always does.*
-
[b]In response, Yuria only sighed, her head hanging low as if she was actually quite angry at herself. Which in truth, she was. She had caused all of this, over some sick belief.[/b] [b]Yuria:[/b] [i]"I promise. I'll do my best to fix her. And if that isn't enough.. No. It will be enough. It'll be more than enough to save Anri. I only hope it is, anyway."[/i]
-
[u][b]Good.[/b][/u] *Two of the bullets that were fired float over to Vorim. Vorim pulls out a marker and rights something on both of them in an unknown language. He sends them back where they came from.* [u][b]I've just t-told Sketch to s-stop firing and our a-agreement. I've a-also g-given him Anri's m-message.[/b][/u]
-
[b]Yuria:[/b] [i]"Good, good.. Should we go ahead and get going? It would be for the best...still not sure about how my head isn't gone just yet."[/i]
-
[u][b]I'm stopping th-the bullets.[/b][/u] *A bullet above his shoulder floats closer to his head. The aura around the bullets is the same shade of glowing blue as his eyes.*
-
[b]Yuria:[/b] [i]"Still."[/i] [b]Yuria proceeded onwards into the Dojo, trusting Vorim to keep the bullets in place and not send them flying towards the back of her head. She'd find Anri though. Perhaps she would be able to cure her, at least for a while.[/b]
-
[u][b]You still need g-give Anri that e-effigy though. But you aren't allowed t-to even be n-near her without Sketch o-or I.[/b][/u]
-
Edited by Orn: 11/6/2016 3:19:56 PM[b]Yuria suddenly stopped in place, turning slowly towards Vorim. A look of absolute hatred engulfed her pale face.[/b] [b]Yuria:[/b] [i]"I will be around her...WITHOUT you or Sketch's presence, thank you very much. Good day!"[/i] [b]The last two words were said with disgust. Yuria may as well yelled "Go to hell!". She stormed off, muttering about something.[/b]
-
Edited by Skatch142: 11/6/2016 4:13:51 PM*He follows her, his eyes starting to turn yellow.* [u][b]Yuria! You have proven that you can't be trusted! I don't care what you say your intentions are, we are not leaving you alone with her! And if that means I have to follow you around all day long just to make sure that you don't talk to her without one of us there, then I am d@&$ well going to! Stop being a b@&$# because we aren't giving you hugs and kisses the second you came back. You seem to be angry at yourself because of what you did, BUT YOU CAN'T F@&$ING UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AREN'T THE ONLY WHO'S ANGRY AT YOURSELF! The fact that you aren't just complying with the terms that we are setting out for you is REALLY making me question your motives. You heard what I told Anri about Sketch, you doing that to Anri doesn't just effect you and Anri! It effects US too![/b][/u] *And like that, the anger returned to Vorim as he screeched back at her.*
