Aries was flipping a coin out of sheer boredom. Behind him, locked in a sealed off room with a see through material, was Zaaria. They had been there for an hour or so.
" Huh. Maybe they won't show up. Damn. Was kind've banking on that...."
(( Open to Mute ))

Zaaria was slowly pacing up and down her cell, surveying all she could see, and keeping close eyes on Aries.
-
Aries was sitting down, his legs crossed. " Stare as much as you want. I'm not pulling anything here. I'm just waiting."
-
"For who, may I ask?"
-
" Switch and Jaden. There's no point in calling my new ally until they show up."
-
"What makes you think they're coming in the first place? How would they even know? And who's this new ally of yours?"
-
" Switch is connected to me through the Darkness in him. Of course, it's very subtle and he'd probably only know when I'm sending him deliberate messages. As of right now, he'll be drawn here, although he won't know why. As for my ally, you've never met him, but Switch has."
-
"Then by all means, introduce him. Or her, whoever it is"
-
" He's not the social type. Prefers to only be called if something is really important."
-
"I'm not the social type either, and I only like being called to important situations too. Sounds like me and your new friend will really hit it off"
-
" What's next, you want me to set up a date?"
-
"If it means you'll get to the point and bloody tell me who this guy is already, then sure"
-
" Fine. Although he's much more hostile than me, at least right now." A portal opened up on the ground. For a few seconds, nothing happened. Then a Guardian stepped out, or at least, he looked like a Guardian. The same tainted Darkness that loomed inside of Aries loomed inside of the new person. It was Lake, and he wasn't in a good mood. " What the hell do you want?"
-
Zaaria stood there for a few moments, trying to process exactly what was going on. She just stared out of her cell at the two figures. "...L-- Lake? How did you--? Wait, you're not--... Ok, someone explain please. I can't be assed to use this many brain cells at once"
-
Lake looked at Zaaria. L,"Who the -blam!- is that?" A," Ah this is my new friend, Zaaria! She was just dying to meet you!" L," You know I don't want to be bothered for stupid shit. All I want is Erik dead, and then I'm leaving." A," That's all fine, but you don't need to be so gloomy about it."

There were a few things not quite right with the whole situation: Lake was making no attempt whatsoever to Attack Aries; the room felt even more dark than before the moment he appeared through the portal; and he was not acting his usually joyous and positive self in the slightest. "Lake... You're not... Please tell me you're not..."
-
L," What? Turned? What's it matter to you?"
-
Edited by Moot: 12/17/2015 12:50:10 AM"This... THIS was your new ally?! Wow... Just wow Aries. It wasn't enough to corrupt one guardian, oh no. No you had to go fcuk up someone else's life too! How many more have you 'turned', as you so disgustingly put it?! How many?! Where the hell is Korvic? you 'turned' him too, huh?! You sick, horrible, repulsive, foul... Thing!!" In an outburst of rage, Zaaria punched the the transparent material containing her in the cell and groaned slightly as she fractured a few knuckles. A tiny crack formed on the material where she had struck it.
-
A," I didn't turn him. He did that himself. His own choice." L," Can I leave now? I have better things to do than this."
-
Edited by Moot: 12/17/2015 12:53:18 AM"Pfft! Like I'm supposed to believe that... How was this [u]not[/u] you?!"
-
A," Fine. I'll prove it. Lake, how's Abby?" Lake moved like lightning, with a knife to Aries' throat. L," Say that name one more time, and I'll kill you."
-
"That doesn't prove anything. You turned Switch into a dark guardian, and yet he would have done a lot more than just put a knife to your throat. And he would have done it a lot sooner. And a lot more painfully" "So. How did you do it?"
-
A," Just wait for it...." Lake's arm was engulfed in the same material that a Knight's armour is made of. He picked Aries up by the throat. A," Love is a powerful thing. It can heal.... And it can corrupt. All I had to do was sit and watch."
-
Edited by Moot: 12/17/2015 1:02:44 AM"Ok, still a bit too cryptic to actually answer the question, Aries. And I'd hurry up and answer it before your throat gets crushed to oblivion"
-
A," Oh I'm perfectly fine. It took me a year to fully master my abilities in the Darkness. Lake's only had a day. I'm still much more powerful." Lake scoffed, and slammed him into the wall that separates Zaaria's makeshift cell from the rest of the room. The force of impact caused the whole thing to break and crash.
-
Zaaria didn't waste a second of time hesitating, and she didn't bother to fight back. This fight wasn't hers, and she wouldn't have a chance of winning if it was. She dashed past both Lake and Aries, giving Lake a quick look of thankfulness and sad sympathy, before sprinting away.
