AND FINALLY...

Heavy hearts and unshed tears seemed to follow them as they walked the dark path behind the tree. Three trials they faced, now they marched to meet the Witch.

The scenery changed, not unlike the other two times. A splendid rose garden grew under their feet, the dark sky showed no stars and no moon. A thunder roared, the wind greeted them as they faced each other once again.

Those who entered the trials looked tired and hurt as the walked to the center of the garden, where a sole crystal table stood. Behind it, and leaving her cup of tea, was Beatrice, the Endless Witch, smirking widely as she saw them arrive.

"Not bad, not bad..."

With and elegant move she took out her pipe, and pointed at Apollo. "She forced you to kill her, didn't she?", a chuckle, as she pointed at Firion. "You had to lie to yourself about your friend, even as he died in your arms".

She took a long smoke, before pointing at Yuan. "And you must have experience killing your old lover! At least you did it cleanly this second time!", Beatrice laughed loudly, and pointed at Django. "Was your father a hard opponent? I see denial shields you from what you don't like..."

Beatrice stood up, the tea cup and the table disappearing. "You killed an innocent girl just to see if you could fly again. So heartless of you", she chuckled, pointing at Evan. "You all were very entertaining. It did help to cure my boredom a little! But things must end for them to start again, and your las trial is here... They shall lose everything for only one to gain everything in return"

"I wonder.. who of you will it be? After killing your own hearts, killing a bunch of strangers shouldn't be difficult at all, should it? Only one of you will prevail to see the sun tomorrow..."

Her loud cackles boomed alongside a thunder, as rain started to fall. The Witch moved her hand and a gigantic steel cage fell on them. It was the last game...

Beatrice smirked, her face illuminated briefly by lightning.

Oh well...

With those two fighting, everyone's focus had shifted. That was good.

Evan walked to the side of the cage closest to Beatrice and gave her a smile. "They are getting busy already..."

[He has a little smile, he's certainly not enjoying this, but he realizes that right now there isn't much to be done.]

Before I get killed by someone in this crazy cage, can I ask you a question, miss Beatrice?

[identity profile] wantmybrainback.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
Dying with unanswered questions only creates silly ghosts.

That's what I get for being polite, I guess.

[A short pause, he's thinking a little about how to say the question.]

I was thinking about the day we met.

You talked about a man... Well, mentioned it in passing.

Is he important to you?

[Sees a piece of cage fly, and a guy he guesses must be Mr. Scratchy entering the fight. After a few seconds, they are pretty in a little world of their own.]

Of course you do, miss Beatrice, I refuse to believe that someone like you would forget such a simple thing.

[identity profile] wantmybrainback.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Chuckles.] No, no offense intended, but you are not my type.


I was wondering why you were here playing silly games with easily breakable humans instead of spending time with that person.

What's the point in lying to a dead man, miss Beatrice? [Smiles at nothing in particular... That fight in the middle looks scary as hell.]

[identity profile] wantmybrainback.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
I could ask the same.

[He's also looking at the fight] Of course we wouldn't want the judge for such a sadistic game to be a being that can care for others like that, would we?

[identity profile] wantmybrainback.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
Was he in one of those games? [Ahahaha, no changing the topic. If he's going to die, at least he'll know a little more about who the hell killed him.]

[identity profile] wantmybrainback.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
I'm tempted to ask you to tell me there is no such an important guy in red.

Will you refuse, miss Beatrice? [Thoughtful voice now.] Or maybe you'll find a workaround... that's not hard, you are smarter than me.

Chibi!Evan: *golf clap xD*

[identity profile] wantmybrainback.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
Workaround!

You are pretty cool, miss Beatrice. Maybe with can try with "no such being" next time?

<3
