"Come on Arianna..." Felix taunted. "You can make a move, or I can make it for you."

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."

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."
