❛ the more difficult route then, ❜ he said bluntly arms folding calmly across his chest. ❛ anything easy would have no challenge in it. ❜ or amusement rather, but that was besides the point.
“ the mere idea of you believing you’re clever enough to outwit me is amusing, don’t you agree? ” blade quickly meets the throat of her enemy without slicing through just yet. the lady loves a good hunt and tailing down this demon was surely one of the many adventures she strode on without faltering far behind. thousands of years in experience blessed her well, mind and spirit, “ a name would be nice. ”
oh, he was smart, but all the same, mistakes were made, and while he thought he was ahead? the reality was he was already a step behind. typical in all reality – ky always knew his ego would get him in trouble and this was just one of those times. “what is more amusing is you being able to keep up with me,” he said, as he lifted his neck slightly – a grin following suit. this would be fun, but only if he played his cards right. if he didn’t? well, things wouldn’t go over well… least of all for him. “an’ it’s ky’lar.” a pause, “the son of blackheart.”
“you WILL not harm this baby. i WON’T let you!” the blonde tried to think of ways that she might be able to escape long enough to keep herself and the baby safe. it may require teaming up with someone that she would rather not face. “ and i KNOW you’re better than that – at least when it comes to ME. even if you don’t want to admit it.”
“i really think you’re FORGETTING who you’re talking to,” he said, taking a step forward. “i could have thrown you to so many DEMONS during our time together, but no. i protected you – i SAVED you and all i ask is you get RID or DISPOSE of that that..” his nose scrunched up in disgust. “thing.” oh, he knew she wouldn’t go for it – why would she? after-all, humans did enjoy caring other humans. it was just plain logic, but to ky… that child could RUIN all his plans. even if in reality… it WOULDN’T harm anything at all.
“AGREE to disagree,” she replied, tone polite, but pleased to move on from that sort of conversation. “Ky’lar – interesting name. Roots in what culture, might I ask? I’ve never heard it before.”
Moving on from that orginal topic was easy. Though, the one he was walking straight into was a bit harder – at least in his mind. Still, he wasn’t going to deny the answer to the question. “Truthfully? Not many have – I know more about my family than my name.” Then again, he doubted that it mattered. “You could fill a cup with what I know about my name an’ my family – it would maybe be three drops.”
“it’s called money,” he said bluntly. “almost everyone can be bought with it.” of course, that was already known, but he felt the need to say it anyways. “it’s nothing to get impressed with.”
he continues to FIGHT, not wanting to give in, hands PRESSED against his head, fingers GRIPPED tightly to his hair. it feels like he’s winning….maybe he WILL win….except he was WRONG. the pressure built up in his brain, && mjolnir FELL to his knees, hands shaking, avoiding the GAZE of the man now controlling him.
‘ iii….yyes. what is it you WISH? ‘
PERFECT; he had gotten them to yield. this control WOULDN’T last forever, but for the amount of time it would last? he’d make sure to do what was needed ( even if it could quite possibly destroy thousands of lives ).
‘ many things, but for starters? i want to bring the world down to it’s knees- after that? we’ll go from there.’
The question didn’t phase Mary and she answered with little consideration. “I’ve spent my life hunting monsters. My humanity is about the only thing that sets me apart from them.” She didn’t know if he could still understand what a powerful asset it was to have a human will to live and fight. Or maybe his reply had been intentionally barbed to hide his true feelings. “I’ve heard some of your kind actually miss your human side.”
“my kind?” he couldn’t help, but scoff at that. “i don’t consider myself a demon.” on most days at least. “nor do i consider myself human – you think your pesky humanity is what sets you apart?” oh, he was getting angry now; his hands even balled into fists to show it. “your kind and yourself are made of mud. sure, you might be flesh an’ blood now, but trust me… i never had a human side to miss.”
