Once Keepa made his appearance, Violet felt uneasy. While it was trying to be charming, something just felt off. If it wanted to feel friendly, why snuff out the light? Why try to scare them? Nothing about this was adding up. She wanted to call him out on this, maybe he just doesn't realize how he's coming off. Violet's met all different kinds of people today, who's to say this one isn't an ally. However, Violet knows Kite didn't let this one out. In fact she had no idea where it came from. She looks to Kite to see his reaction. Fear. Complete and total fear. She'd never seen Kite look like this. Even when he fought the other Kite, he stepped forward with resolve... but now... [color=598527]Call me[/color][color=507723] Walker, i[/color][color=476a1f]t's a pl[/color][color=3e5d1b]easure K[/color][color=354f17]eepa.

[color=darkviolet]If Kite's afraid of this thing then what does that mean for [i]us[/i]. I couldn't place the feeling before but now I get it. Just looking at this thing... I get the same feeling as fighting a Nightmare from my world. That same lingering dread from just being around them, this 'Keepa' is oozing it. This feeling just won't go away.[/color] The more she looks at it, the heavier that dread felt. Violet starts to see the events unfold. But one stands out more than anything. She can't shake the vision of Kite getting himself hurt again. What's scarier is that she feels 'hurt' may be the least of her worries. The memory of Kite's previous death keeps playing back in her mind even though she wasn't aware of how severe it really was. [color=darkviolet]Kite almost got themselves killed before, barely hanging on by a thread and they were confident about that fight. Now, Kite's completely given into fear. This thing can really kill us. This thing wants to kill us. This thing is going to... no. Not again. I'm not going to let myself do nothing again. I promised Kite I wouldn't let anything hurt him. I have to do something. ANYTHING![/color] Violet activates her ball and charges it up with all her power. The ball bursts into an ethereal yellow flame. Violet knows that color... the ball changes that color when her primary emotion is fear. Even if she's scared, it's not going to stop her from doing what needs to be done.

DUCK![/b][/color] The ball streaking past Walker and slamming that thing square in the middle of it's head. [color=violet][b]I'M NOT LETTING YOU HURT [i][u]ANYONE[/u][/i] YOU MONSTER[/b][/color] Realizing she was shouting out of fear, she tries to regain what composure she can. Talking now to Walker: [color=violet]That thing is evil incarnate. Don't be drawn in by its words. I had to make the first move before [i]it[/i] did. Sierra! You could have been in a lot of trouble! It's clear we can't makes friends with it...[/color] As she says this, she looks over to the scared Kite before setting her eyes back on the monster in front of her, [color=violet]so there's only one other route to take...[/color] Violet stills herself for whatever comes next.
