Malice looked back at the magical explosion and laughed "what a stupid girl, just blowing up an old house like that. Oh I'm sure she [i]tried[/i] to hit me, but I was just too good to get hit by such a sloppy attack and I''m talking to myself again aren't I?" she sighed as she said the last part "I really must get rid of that dreadful habit of mine, It's so unseemly. Oh well, at least no one's around to hear me. Now, I have a few things to take care of..." and with that, she vanished --- Nathan was finding this whole situation pretty ironic; he was just dragged somewhere he'd never been to before by someone he barely knew to get involved with a bunch of people he didn't even know. It was just like the indecent at Guardian. Hell, if he counted his conversation with Meria's grandfather, he could also add 'outed as a Dragonite' to the list of things that both incidents shared. However he didn't have much time to dwell on this train of thought, since there were far more pressing issues to attend to, like getting this Chloris girl out of here. "Okay, I know I already said this before, but I feel that it bares repeating; we need to get out of here [i]now[/i]. I'm still not fully convinced that the crazy lady from before is really just going to let us go, and then there's this guy...whoever he is. I can tell that he's bad news. Maybe the three of us could take him on our own, but there's a problem; her" he said while looking at Chloris "she is in no condition mentally to be around this guy if what she said is right. Whether or not she can fight, I have no doubt that she'll go after him in a frenzy if no one stops her, and we can't fight him and keep her safe at the same time. Right now; our first priority should be her safety. I came here to save a live, not to fight"
