Re: Goodbyes and Farewells.

[Athemise]

I ran into the coffee shop knowing I was late and hoping I’d make it in time to see Ella, “Sorry I’m late” I panted trying to catch my breath “I lost track of time. What’s going on?”

[Sveinn]

"Easiest carcass to find." He replied with a grin. "She hasn't figured out how to form yet or posses something like Militis can." He was non-plussed by Athemise and stared at her. More trouble.

[Margurka]

“I am here,” I stretched out a hand, “have you said your goodbyes?”

A hollow psychic presence emanated nearby, something disturbing, like a mind emptied of its own will. The lack of its presence made it difficult to focus in on the source immediately, but any psychic dragons in the area could easily trace it if they sought.

[Ella Lyghtstone]

‘Ah, I see now.’ I said to him and turned to Athemise. “Um drama is about to happen, Athemise.” I smirked towards her, relieved at least one of my friends came.
I stood and faced Margurka. “I won’t be going with you, Margurka.” I said my tone flat and eyes grew harsh.

[Athemise]

Not knowing what was going on I walked to the counter to order coffee, “Black, please?” I said to the barista. I then got my coffee and walked back to Ella just keeping a small distance in case anything was going to happen. As I took a sip of my coffee I felt a small psychic presence but decided to ignore it. *Just ignore it Athemise. Let’s not go looking for trouble again.* I thought to myself.

The temperature of the room rose slightly, heat wafting from my direction the moment Ella responded. Those who had been present for dark dragon transformations in the past could feel an all too familiar brood in the air.

“I see,” my crushed face winced, anger fluttering across it in alternation with confusion and pain. I dropped my arm to my side and stepped away, turning from Ella.

“I suppose it was too much of me to hope.”

[Ella Lyghtstone]

“It wasn’t at the time. And if two things hadn’t happened I’d be blissfully ignorant and leaving. However I can’t standby someone who enslaved an entire race of people.” I voice was even but cold. “Know this. I am greatly restraining myself from snapping your neck right now.” My arms were shaking hard at my sides. I was sparking and thunder was closing in outside. My hair on my head and arms were raised from the effort of not attacking him and keeping my power in.

[Athemise]

I continued to sip my black coffee and took another step back again, “Well I know how this is going to end.” I said to myself and sighed.

[Margurka]

The void mind’s presence grew, apparently in tandem with the heat in the room.

“Snap my neck?” A forced smile twitched its way onto my face, as I resisted the growl rumbling within my chest. I turned back and stormed forward, stopping centimeters from Ella’s face. Black veins pulsed through my eyes, ink clouding over them and simultaneously pulling back; as if something were consuming the darkness as it manifested. I shook my head with glossy eyes and a face contorting between scowls and disturbed smiles.

[Sveinn]

"Christ Ella, couldn't just say you were sorry it wouldn't work out could you?" He shot at her under his breath after what she said. Leave it to her to elevate things. He was alarmed by the change that overcame the fire dragon and stood up suddenly. Why couldn't people ever have a normal breakup around here? "Look Margurka we have to go. We've got plans that start in," He paused to check his watch and scowled, "ten minutes. Ella we're going to be late thanks to that little stunt you pulled. I'm not missing the portal whether you're there or not."

[Ella Lyghtstone]

I shook my head. “Yeah, let’s get out of here.” I said all my confidence dissipating out of me as black eyes stared at me. I started to back away towards the door. “Goodbye Margurka.” I said and was out the door.
