[@EurmalEye][@Maria 127] Shela screamed loudly as she felt the fangs dug into her neck. After a minute or two, Shela stopped struggling, and simply stayed still. When Argentina was done, the wall reappeared and the masked man revived Shela. He laughed softly, speaking to her with a caring tone almost. "You see Shela, even your friends turn on you. The people you trusted, but that can all change as long as you come with me. I can make you strong, I can give you power." Shela looked over to Argentina then looked to the masked man. She closed her head and lowered her head with a soft, sad sigh. The masked man held out his hand for her and she slowly looked up to him. "You must be lonely, come with me, and you can see Leval again. You just need to trust me." She looked down once more, not saying a word, then she slowly stood herself up weakly. She slowly walked up to the masked man and spoke to him quietly. "Please, don't hurt my friends." The masked man continued to hold out his hand for her as he smiled brightly. "Of course Shela, just come with me, I promise." She slowly grabbed his hand and with that, she came out of the cage. He snapped his fingers and her collar fell off. She pressed her finger against her neck for a moment before closing her eyes. "What about them? You promised." The masked man looked to Ceres, Argentina and Irvine before snapping his fingers. Suddenly, there collars would come off and Argentina would no longer feel hungry. He looked to Shela once more and stared at her. She spoke again. "Who are you? When will I get strong?" The masked man laughed a little before putting his arm around her. He began to walk slowly, but made sure everyone could hear him loud and clear. "Me, oh, just call me Arken, and you're powers? Simple, you want to get strong, then change. Don't let yourself be pushed around anymore." He clicked his fingers, and suddenly Bandit would appear in his hand, he gave her the toy before speaking again. "Make yourself strong, make yourself change. Now, where is that academy?" Shela stopped and turned to him, she grabbed Bandit for a minute before looking back to him. "The academy? It.....it's......just past the maze." The masked man nodded and waved his hand over her. He then spoke once more. "Show me, and you shall be rewarded. Soon, you will meet Leval again." She looked to the floor, not saying another word. [b]Pozuzy[/b] Pozuzy looked to Leval as he came over to him. His eyes glowed red for a moment as he listened to him. Was he suggesting that he cheated? That he took advice from another? "No help! No no no! Do not help Pozuzy! I do not cheat! I have to do it by myself! I am always on my own, always! It's just me, always me! Pozuzy is sin demon, Pozuzy is scary! Pozuzy is always scary! Pozuzy master trickster! I be best! Nobody laughs at Pozuzy, NOBODY!" He tilted his head for a moment then looked to the others, more specificly Red who laughed at him. He then looked back to Leval, staring at him for some time.
