Chapter 13 - Do you which to live

Martha's screams still echoing in the cave, the elders were on their last straw,if they couldn't make her talk then Ileus would and everyone knew that Ileus is as dangerous as he is cunning. Taking in a deep breath Elara turned heading to the exit of the cave" let's leave her be for now, it would take an hour more before the effects of the poison wears off, when she heals we would start again". They all left the dungeon standing just outside it's walls, " when would those creatures stop making us do their dirty work it's tiring" Elara sighed, her eyes looking distant, all of them had to pay a price for their abilities but none had to pay a price as dreadful as hers." The day the curse is lifted we would be free from their control, that's what Simon said right?" Reiner said,he could not get himself to stand in a place. Without waiting for anyone to reply he said" Seems nothing we have done to her would make her talk and she's knows well we can do nothing to harm the girl, I don't even think they would allow it" Reiner said angrily, walking around in a circle, his thick red hair could be seen from a mile away. Bright red hot lines stretched from his eyes down to the corner of his lips.

" Oh I should just burn her to death, she deserves worse than that even" Reiner yelled, his entire skin lit up in a golden hue similar to sunlight. Reiner Emberfalls had the ability of fire or as most call it red chaos. He has the ability to harness the power of the sun, with just a snap of his fingers he can make an entire mortal army go up in blaze. " Do calm yourself Reiner or I would have to freeze you for a little while" Frost said lazily gazing at the gate to the dungeon, he closed his eyes for a second taking in air. Elder Frost was known to be a very peaceful quiet man, his beautiful sliver hair complemented his sliver crystal eyes giving him the look of a beautiful angel,he rarely spoke sometimes even when asked questions. His ability as his name is the ability of ice. He could turn anything to ice as long as there is a bit of moisture in it,he equally could inject poisonous liquids through the ice which could kill a mortal being instantly and this can be done to any amount of people at the same time. Reiner turned angrily, his face redder than his eyes" I would like to see you try Frost" he said walking towards Frost who rested his back on the wall paying no heed to the nagging man. "I'm going to burn that pretty hair of yours clean off your head, let's see if you can remain unperturbed after that" Reiner said taking a fighting stance, his fists covered with fire. Frost took a look at him, his eyes held no amusement to Reiner, he yawned returning his gaze back to the gate. Reiner being proud and stupidly aggressive couldn't take being ignored and charged towards him with his fists but before he could get close to Frost to deliver a blow he was chucked into the air and left hanging. Reiner knew that there was only one person who could stop his attack like that, he looked down to see Thorne's hand strongly wrapped around his neck. " Thorne let go of me this instant" Reiner said trying to remove Thorne's hands from his neck.

Thorne turned to Elara waiting for her order," do you plan to behave yourself Reiner" she said with a frown, she still found it strange how after hundreds of years these two can't get along. Reiner angrily glared at her which made Thorne tighten his grip. " Yes, yes I would behave now let me go you big dummy" Reiner crooked nearly out of air. Thorne dropped him with a loud thud returning to stand closer to Elara. Reiner glared at all of them about to start another fight but they had footsteps approaching. They all stood straight knowing well who Ileus brought along with his,all except for Frost who casually leaned on the wall. As Simon came into view they all bowed their hands in respect. " Has she said anything else" he said directly to Elara. " No Lord Simon she refused to tell us anything about the girls parents or what the girl actually is". Elara looked away, " she blocked me from accessing her memories as well and I can't see anything regarding the girl, something powerful seems to be preventing me. My ability can not help you, I'm sorry Simon" . Simon didn't say a word, his eyes fixed on the entrance to the cave. "You all have done your best, we are grateful for that". " It seems Vashti didn't tell us everything about Olivia, I'm sure Martha was working under her influence. I guess I would have to get what information I need from her any way possible " he sighed. This wasn't something he enjoyed doing, torturing people, he was never really good at it before. That was Michael's specialty, he always had an unpleasant way of making people talk. A lot had changed since then, back then he still thought there was a difference between right and wrong, that love did exist in this terrible world, he believed that family couldn't harm one another. " How stupid you were Simon" he muttered to himself. During the time of the great war,he had to torture countless people to gain information about Michael whether he wanted to or not for he knew Michael wasn't taking it likely with his people that he had caught. At first he felt sorry for the people that had to endure his torture but as time went on he felt quite indifferent about it. Simon walked into the cave, he could hear a girl crying bitterly but even that couldn't ignite any emotion in his cold heart. Simon stood in front of Martha who kept crying and muttering to herself. " Martha I do not wish to hurt you but you have given me no other choice, I have to know everything about this girl" he paused taking in the dusty air of the cave" l ask you this only once Martha, do you which to live".
