Rajaka chuckled as he stepped forward, nonchalant in his approach, until something gripped his leg with a burning desire. He felt the clutch of Mikhael, albeit weak, he [i]felt[/i] it. Maya looked upon her adopted squire in discontent. [i]Demonization.[/i] Maya lowered her hand and stepped away from Rajaka, gripped by something nostalgic. Rajaka looked back at Mikhael briefly. The corner of his mouth curved down behind his mask and he rose an eyebrow, confused and alarmed by the boy's sudden transformation. But a moment passed and he smiled once more, completely disregarding the possible danger that desperately reached out to him.

	"You've got yourself a winner here, Maya!" Rajaka mocked, turning back to here, and loosely dragging Mikhael across the ground with his titanic steps. Maya stepped back again, and again, but with his next step, Rajaka stomped hard against the ground. A yellow spire of energy rose and engulfed Maya's being for a split second before fading away. The woman fell to the ground in utter paralysis, victim to a power that the giant had kept hidden until now. "Cataclysm, babe," Rajaka spat, stepping closer and closer to the disabled Queen. "You'd think after [i]300 years[/i] you'd make some goddamn progress. But no! Yzeira sure was hoping though, [b]man[/b] was he [b]hoping.[/b] Never seen that kind of passion in his eyes since that [i]shadow dog[/i] made her way into the tower. You remember her, yeah? Good times." As he grew nearer, the queen did not move. She couldn't. Rajaka's overbearing magic had taken vice over her soul. "You were so close, too! Right on that line, that sweet spot! If only you were a little less prideful... Ah, look at me talkin' about pride!"

	Rajaka stood over the queen, Mikhael still latched to his leg defiantly. He turned back to the boy and knelt down to give him a closer look. The golden giant met Mikhael's crimson gaze with his own sun-filled eyes.

	"Hey kiddo, I'm gunna squish your mommy now," Rajaka mocked in an infantile tone, "It'll be qwick, so don't cwy too much!"
