[b]Anumi wakes up, dangling by a leg from a large tree. She glances around at the scene in front of her... It's dark and cold. She's alone though, just... Well, she doesn't know where. Her head is bleeding and her skin has several deep cuts along it. Tears well up in her eyes as something crawls from the shadows towards her, a grin on its face.[/b]
[i]"Where are your heroes now? Your gods? Your friends? They are gone... All gone... My... If only Damien could see this... I would love to hear spew stupid and then die trying to commit... And Val? She's dead... Killed her... And Caldon... Well... He's dead... And the rest... I killed them all... Don't you see? After you... I'm all that's left..."[/i]
[b]Malform sits down, wide eyed at his work. The rag in Anumi's mouth keeps her from screaming. The tears flow freely now. This is it. Death. She knows Malform. To him, it's just a game gone to far. But he enjoys it. This wasn't Lucien anymore.[/b]
[i]"Dearest girl... Gentle woman... How sad it must be to see your end... Right before your eyes..."[/i]
[b]Malform pulls out a sharpened rock and approaches Anumi. He slowly pushes it into her stomach. His smile seems to encapsulate his face.[/b]
[i]"Farewell..."[/i]
[b]He leaves her, dangling... Slowly bleeding out...[/b]

[b]He starts to ache but proceeds, and finds himself in a....[/b]
-
[b]Its a massive open field filled with grass and wheat stocks. Two people stand nearby, talking together. They look young, and very similar. On is clearly a younger Lucien the other is... Almost the same, just taller and longer hair. His eyes are also a bright yellow.[/b]
-
[i]Might be a source of his problems....[/i] [b]he flicks his fingers and Anumi pops up out of no where[/b] "Had fun?"
-
[b]She blinks.[/b] [i][u]"No! I hate those stupid things..."[/u][/i] [b]She looks around and notices the two.[/b] [i][u]"Where... Are we?"[/u][/i]
-
"Lucien's mind, did you have fun in the pocket dimension though?"
-
[i][u]"No... Like I said... I hate the damn things..."[/u][/i]
-
"You can do everything there y'know"
-
[i][u]"I prefer my reality..."[/u][/i] [b]She steps towards the two boys, clearly not wanting to continue the conversation.[/b]
-
"Alright" [b]he flicks his fingers again and the little cub appears on your shoulder[/b] "That lil guy really likes you"
-
[b]Anumi ignores the words and stops in front of the boys.[/b] [i][u]"Lucien?"[/u][/i] [b]The green eyed boy turns to her, the other one turns to but a very strange a grin is spread across his face.[/b] [i]"Yes...? Who are you? How do you know me?"[/i]
-
[b]He creates another portal, just in case, and the lil lion purs[/b]
-
[i][u]"I'm a friend... How are you?"[/u][/i] [i]"Uhh... Okay... Well this is weird... Come on Daemi... Let's leave..."[/i] [b]The two boys move off into the field, disappearing among the grass.[/b] [i][u]"Mphm..."[/u][/i]
-
"Memories are my specialty, I am god here" [b]He flicks his fingers again and the boys are back[/b]
-
[b]Anumi frowns.[/b] [i][u]"That's cruel... Keeping someone locked up..."[/u][/i] [b]Anumi puts a strange emphasis on her words.[/b] [i][u]"Why'd you bring me here? Why are you still doing this to me? I don't understand..."[/u][/i]
-
"I thought you could help, since you know Lucien better than I do"
-
[i][u]"Or perhaps... You could try giving him some space? Look... Just let me out... This isn't the place for people like me to dwell."[/u][/i]
-
"Hmpf" [b]he flicks his fingers again and you're in the forest again, away from Lucien [/b] "Some thanks would be nice since I saved your life, multiple times now"
-
[i][u]"Yeah, thanks..."[/u][/i] [b]She folds her arms and cocks an eyebrow.[/b] [i][u]"I don't understand what you see in me..."[/u][/i] [b]Anumi shakes her head and looks up at the Avalon.[/b] [i][u]"Besides... You have better things to do than worry about me, right? Or even Lucien..."[/u][/i]
-
"Not really, I'm just a bored, innocent and lonely cyborg looking for a soulmate" [b]he says with a sad tone[/b]
-
[i][u]"Right... Well... You can do better than me..."[/u][/i] [b]Anumi begins to walk off, headed no where in particular.[/b]
-
"Not really, if I'm quite honest then I'd say you're out of my league"
-
[i][u]"Well... That's a new one... Look, I'm going to join the FN... I intend to watch Lucien from this point forward. I owe him a debt and he is my priority. At this time... I'm not looking for friends, or even intimate partners... I'm looking to protect Lucien."[/u][/i] [b]Resolved by her words, Anumi's eye glow with passion and determination.[/b]
-
[b]he nods, a tear in his eyes, and he flicks his fingers one last time, and you find yourself alone[/b]
