((Here's what you missed after you left, Amber. Color-coded list:
White = Methuselah
Orange = Ayla
Green = Viconia
Yellow = Aerie
Red = Sirus))
Methuselah was able to get a good view of everything from up high. Soon he was pulled up and aboard the ship. He watched Sirus with annoyance and anger, ready for anything, but he did not move. When the taller man behind Sirus spoke, Methuselah's blood red orbs finally shifted away from Sirus. At the tall man's words, the crew began laughing and making remarks. Methuselah grit his teeth but did nothing. He couldn't, for Xiu's sake. His eyes then fell back on Sirus just as the Dark Lord raised his hand, immediately silencing the crew. When Sirus mentioned adding something to the deal, Methuselah shook his head.
"Nay, Dark Lord. What thou hast previously requested ist our deal. I Shalt fetch the Thunderer and woman in exchange for m'lady Xiu, and shalt only agree once there is proof that she ist alive, as we hath discussed. Unless it directly involves what thou hast already asked, any additional requests art entirely different and may be denied. I am not thyne lap dog."
Methuselah was playing by Sirus' rules, as much as he hated it: He was not attacking, Ayla was not attacking, and even though he did not know where to even start in fetching Fiskar and Mina, he'd do it- as long as Xiu was alive. That's the offer that had been set on the table. Unless it directly involved fetching Fiskar and Mina, or perhaps benefited Methuselah slightly (though he doubted it very much so), then it was an entirely different deal.
At Ayla's mind send, Methuselah cast a quick glance to Tent City, making sure that both Ayla and Sirus' troops did nothing before his attention returned to Sirus.
- the troops on the ground would all be standing in fromation and stairing at tent city, just waiting for tent city to do something but even though the troops had weapons in hand and some troops was even stairing a hole through Alya and vici and Aerie, the troops would have there weapons in hand but make no move. the canons and crossbows on the ground would be armed and ready but nothing would happen, they would be just waiting for the trio to make a move.
Sirus would still be look in the face of Meth and as he hears his wards about Sirus new request, Sirus grins evilly and speaks-
Sirus: we will see about that.
- Sirus turns to Boon and nodes to him. Boon then steps forward across the floor towards the back of the ship and then he stops. Boon bends over and grabs the two rings that was linked to the floor but as boon pulls on them, he opens a set of doors to a set of stairs leading down into the ship, down to the brig. Boon then stands to the side to let meth go down the steps with Sirus. Sirus walks over to the steps and stops as he turns back around and looks to Methnods his head to say that this is the way. Once they got down the steps, Meth would see the ceil with the torture device in the center and on the front of the box would be the small block that he can look through to see Xiu.-
*Ayla would be standing just outside of the Gate, she would now and then look up at the three Airship then back at Sirus' troop she had no plans to attack but would IF she was attacked. She would look at the troops then at Viconia and Aerie as the two of them were standing next to her and laugh a little.* you know I do think Sirus is scared of us *She would then go on laughing*
*Viconia would hear Ayla and nod laughing some herself* I think your right Ayla *And she too would go on laughing at the troop. and they would all see that the three woman were not there to attack but just to watch*
*Aerie would hear her mother and Viconia and smile* I guess that mean I did a good job if they are afraid of us now *She too would start laughing as she would also be watching the Troops*
Methuselah continued to watch Sirus as the tall being stepped forward and to the back of the ship. Methuselah finally tore his attention away from Sirus and watched as the man opened a stairway down into the ship. Sirus began walking toward the stairs, turning and inviting Methuselah to follow him with a movement of his head. The General followed, albeit still cautious around the crew.
The albino descended into darkness that was only lit by the stairway and purple crystals. He could not see Xiu anywhere. The vampire frowned at the cell with the torture device. It was as if there was a box encasing something inside. An animal. A dragon. Xiu.
Methuselah stepped forward and peered into the small opening. He saw closed eyes. Was she alive? Dead? Sleeping? His vampiric hearing told him that she was alive, but barely. Her breathing was shallow. Her heartbeat was very slow.
Methuselah would send a mindsend to Ayla. "Xiu ist alive." Was all that he would tell her.
The albino turned away from the torture device and look to Sirus.
"T'is a bit much to locketh m'lady up as such, aye?" he said.
Behind him, a set of eyes shot open. Fiery eyes glared not at Boon for locking her in the torture device, or even at Sirus for being his prisoner, but at Methuselah. Xiu's temper tantrum had to quickly be extinguished once she was placed inside the torture device. Her temper was causing more harm than good to herself. And so she had forced herself to meditate, to use as little energy as possible, to not move even an inch. Slowly, Xiu's eyes fluttered shut. She didn't have much energy left to even meditate.
Methuselah, upon hearing her heartbeat pick up, had turned around, but Xiu's eyes were closed and her heartbeat slowed down once more. He looked back to Sirus.
- Sirus stoped at the bottum of the steps as he watched Meth seeing if Xiu was still alive and even Sirus him self would hear her heart beat but no matter how she felt about meth or Sirus, Sirus's next move might make Xiu hate him alittle more.-
sirus: like i said, i allowed you to see that she is alive and so fare no harm has came to her....which is something i didnt promis. I want you to do one more thing on top of our deal and then you can have her, if not then ill end her life now.
- Sirus holds up his hand as his hand bursts into black flames and suddenly Meth should start hearing the sounds of gears and pullys moving over head and in the walls as suddenly the front of the box would begin to close in on Xiu as now the spikes would slowly begin to push and piece into xiu body and and the smell of fresh blood would hit the air. the box would keep closing in on itself if Meth didnt agree to Sirus's new request.-
*Hearing Methuselah's mind send Ayla would stop laughing and look from Viconia and Aerie* Xiu is alive *was all she said*
*Hearing Ayla Viconia would take a deep breathe and nod* Good Adalon will be glad to hear that
*Aerie wold stop laughing too and nod hearing her mother* that good now to just get her back
Methuselah parted his lips to retort, but Sirus raised a hand, which burst into black flames. The vampire grit his teeth, ready for an attack on either him or Xiu, but it didn't happen. Instead, Methuselah heard sounds of something moving. He then heard a cry of pain, which switched to a cry of anger, before fading into a cry of pain once more. The albino spun around swiftly to see that the box inside of the cell was closing in on itself, with Xiu still inside. He did not know about the spikes, and just how little room she had to begin with.
He spun back around to face Sirus with a rather hateful glare and bared fangs. It had all been too easy up until this point. He should have known that the damnable cheater would force an advantage over the situation.
"Enough!" he demanded. "What ist thyne additional request?" he hissed, angrily.
- sirus loosened his grip of his fist and the flaming hand and the box would stop right where it was, the box will not loosen unless meth agrees. Sirus steps over to the ceil in front of him and takes his finger and start runing his nail down the pole but his nail would start cuting a groove into the iron. Sirus would then speak.-
Sirus: you see, you also have something i want, you have two loves and one is carring my child. so I consider you a man whore, and it is time to give one of those loves up but the one who carries my child is not the one I want, for she must choose to be with me, not me make her. so what i want from you is Innocent, give her to me with faskar and the blue haired lady and you will get Xiu back alive, i give you my word!
