"Huh? Was that the deal? I just thought this if you didn't do what I wanted then I got hurt your little...whatever she is to" Malice confessed. Then turning her attention to Nathan, she smirked "so this is the one, huh? After all of this time, the Infinity Ring is finally within my grasp!"

Having expected her to be after the swords, Nathan's mind didn't immediately catch the name 'Infinity Ring' "I-I don't know what your talking about, I've never seen those swor-wait...did you say ring? Well that's a relief, I thought you were after the swords"

"I don't care about some slabs of metal, just give me the ring!" Malice seethed 

"Oh...um okay" Nathan said "hey, Luther was it? I think she wants that ring of yours"

"No! Not that ring, I gave it to him to find the Infinity Ring!" Snapping her fingers, the tracking ring flew out of Luther's possession and into hers. She pressed her finger on the top of it and the ring projected a large magical circle with a bunch off odd looking runes on it "what!? It's not here!?"

"I'm starting to think this is some kind of prank, because none of this makes any sense" Nathan said as he rubbed the back of his head

"GARH! I was so close. I know he's the one, this ring can feel the trace of the Infinity Ring's power on him, but the ring itself is not here. Where is it boy!?" Malice demanded

"Again, what ring!? I have no idea what your talking about!"

"Don't play dumb. Like that old man was stupid enough to give it you without telling you of it's power!"

That got Nathan's attention "wait...old man? You mean an old guy with eyes that look like crystals?" Malice nodded "ohhhhhh. [i]That[/i] ring. Yeah, I left it at home. Wait...why do you even want it in the first place? It's just a weird looking ring?"

It took Malice a few seconds to process what Nathan just said. When she finished, she started laughing "that old fool! He never even told you about the ring's power! I bet he just said something about how it was his 'last hope' or some other such nonsense. Heh, and the sad thing is that I can't even call you stupid for not knowing that the ring was special; compared to his other works, I bet it looks normal. Had I not know about it's power myself, I very well might have made the same mistake."

"Sooo...what happens now?" Nathan asked

"Now? Now the other boy, who's name I can't be bothered to remember, goes back and searches your home for the ring. You on the other hand, aren't going anywhere" Malice said with a terrifying smile on her face

Nathan gulped "...I NEED AN ADULT!!!!!"

"I am an adult, and now that you mention it...you might make a good toy for my daughter...after she brakes your mind and turns you into a good little sex slave" Malice said to herself

"Meep" Nathan squeaked
