[color=bc8dbf]“I’ll be keeping you as long as it takes to ensure my sister believes I questioned you three thoroughly otherwise, she’d likely subject you to a wide range of interrogation practices. Most of her preffered methods are a step away from torture.”[/color] Ryner responded to Max. [color=bc8dbf] “I know locking you away is less than ideal but there are few places on campus she won’t violate in her search so I put you away somewhere even she isn’t foolish enough to overstep without reason. I’m sorry it upsets you but I am doing my best to l keep you safe at the moment.”[/color] 

Ryner evaluated Eris with wry amusement as she considered isi offer. [color=bc8dbf] “As much as it feels like making a deal with our mutual colleague, I’d only be too happy to accept your assistance. Keeping this as quiet as possible and reducing the visibility of your three’s involvement is a high priority after securing the campus again.”[/color] Ryner leaned back against the desk, smoothing out a few wrinkles on her jacket. [color=bc8dbf] “I am curious about the expected reciprocity. One good deed deserves another afterall.”[/color] Ryner’s attention shifted as a faint knock echoed in the office, eyes taking on a far away look as she seemed to look past the door into the office for a few moments, but she was back quickly enough, her smile strained at the edges.

[color=f49ac2]“They’re shutting down the campus.”[/color] Dennis said quietly, his face pale and his voice trembling. He hadn’t loosened his grip on Amaris at all. It took him a few moments to process Amaris’ request but he nodded slowly at her. He blinked, his attention returning to the present and he tried to smile, strained at the edges but a smile nonetheless. [color=f49ac2] “Ye-yeah. I think, uh, I think I can do that. We should start heading back to the dorms. Do you think you can stay with me on the way? I don’t want to be alone right now.”[/color] Dennis admitted quietly, clearly embarrassed as he looked anywhere but Amaris.

[color=f49ac2] “And of course, I’d find a way to pay you back. One good deed deserves another afterall.”[/color] Dennis promised.

[color=red] “I don’t care about your pretend titles. Nothing but pretty, shiny names so vampires can lord themselves around, inflate their pathetic, fragile egos to forget that they’ve gotten [i]soft[/i].”[/color] The vampiress spat, pushing off her spot and circling Victor, sizing him up. [color=red] “And you specifically mean absolutely nothing to me. Killing you would only be a waste of time. The only vampire I mean to kill if it comes to it is Ryner but not tonight. Tonight I want her to break over her little herd. All these cattle she rounded up and doing nothing with them.”[/color] The woman laughed bitterly.

[color=red] “That’s what broke her in the first place. The things she has [i]done[/i]! If they knew, what she did all those years ago, what [i]we[/i] did, how [i]we[/i] “reveled”, they wouldn’t put her on some pathetic pedestal. If you think this is bad, you should see some of the benders we went on. We’d starve ourselves as we wandered the world, only eating when we found an entire human settlement to sate our appetites. The four of us could drain a village in a blink of an eye. [/color] The vampiress sighed. [color=red] “We terrorized the night. Every few years we’d split and see how many places we could obliterate, how many families we could decimate. I always had the lead but Ryner was always on my heels. And then the wars started and poof, Ryner became the poster girl for lame. Sent a friend of hers to leave us with stakes in our chests and a sunrise to greet. Good thing I knew a few tricks.”[/color] She stopped circling, back away from him to stand next to the edge of the building closest to the water. 

[color=red] “Why did you have to get in the way? Everything was going perfectly. Mostly. Truth be told, I wanted one more before they scared the herd back to their pens but that can be overlooked. It’s much easier to kill them all when they’re all locked up in close quarters.”[/color] The woman tapped her finger thoughtfully against her cheek. [color=red] “I guess I will have to kill you before I can go get them.”[/color] And she lunged, closing the gap with a single step and hand going for the throat.
