Oh dear, one of you appears to have completely lost it. Now's not the time to try and put information that I'm sure you don't have in my head!
I don't know if you even have the ability to do that.
I really doubt it.

>Uh, uh, shit. Hit him with the ax!
>No, wait. Bad plan. Run away very quickly.

>Throw axe at him
>Make a run for it.

I toss the axe at Kanden. Not to hit him or anything, mainly to distract him while I run for the door. I feel a bit... funny for running away from a spindly little guy. Heh, if I told my brother, he'd never let me live it down. Then again, if I did, he'd know that this guy apparently meant business and was not to be fucked with.

As I hear a metallic clang, I start a mad dash for the door via the opposite side of the altar in the middle of the room.



Before I can notice him, he's already cut me off at the door. Damn, He really is fast. He's blocking the door with the spear thingie.
"Please don't try to run. You will not get very far. Just give me the amulet. I don't want to hurt you, girl!" he says.
"No! It'll kill me anyway if it take it off right now!" My reply puzzles him.
"Huh? What? Who told you that? No, it's perfectly fine to remove it. But if you don't do it soon, something wor... er. Nevermind.
Just give it here, already."
What? Guess I may need to take another look at that scroll. Eh, if I can get out of here without him runnin' me through, of course.

> Try to negotiate a plan where you two end up working together.
> Kiss him.

I am fairly certain he and I are way beyond that. I can't jus- wait. What was that last thing you said? I heard that!
DID YOU JUST TELL ME TO KISS HIM?
WHAT.
MUMBLING TO YOURSELF ISN'T GOING TO MAKE ME NOT HEAR YOU. YOU... ugh, y'know what? Loathing as I am to say this, but that may actually work. It might distract him and give me a chance to slip away. Might. Gods, I can't believe I'm actually considering this. What are you lot doing to my head?

"u-Um. Fffffine," I sorta cough out,"I'll hand it over if you leave me alone, gods..."
"Ah, good. Thank you, I truly detest fighting. And yes, you will never see me again. I promise."
Kanden comes back out of his little battle stance, holding that spear upright at his side.
"Alright, I'm going to come closer. Just don't hit me with that spear... thing or whatever."

I take a few steps toward him, pulling out the amulet and get... uncomfortably close. He looks at you guys, then up at me, confused.
"Hm? Miss Licia," he says, recoiling slightly, "You... uh, do you really need to get that close t-AH?!"

I pull him even closer and... ugh, give him what amounts to a Bremin kiss. This better work, or I'm blaming you for this!!

>NOW, WHILE HE'S CONFUSED! BITE HIS FACE OFF!

[Seccom-Masada]

>NOW, WHILE HE'S CONFUSED! BITE HIS FACE OFF!

I stop my nuzzling and try to bite him! My teeth actually catch something and I yank away something... hard?
I don't think this is his face.



I look back at him. His look of confused shock quickly turns very angry, like he...

He shoves me backwards and I stumble toward altar! That little bastard is strong!
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!" he wails. He then glares at me, flustered and pointing shakily.
"Y-y-y-you... PERVERT!! E-enough already! Don't be weird!! s-Stop screwing around and hand over that damn necklace!!"
Oh gods. His calm and slightly deep voice is now... his voice cracked and now sounds not unlike a little human girl.

Also that didn't seem to distract him long enough. I may be in trouble because he seems a little angry!
He starts walking towards me again, raising his spear.

Good idea about the glasses. I'll hold onto them for a while.

But I don't know about dodging Kanden's moves. He moves so quick for me to react, but I'll try. I raise my hands in front of me to try and grab his spear when he swings it again.



I was going to block a swing... But he doesn't swing it!
"No one forces kisses on an Anijan Seeker!!" he shouts.
He jabs me in the face with the bottom of the shaft. Right in the brow. It doesn't feel good, obviously. Why did I think he would swing a spear??
As I reflexively grab my face, he doesn't stop. He keeps spinning and twirling that spear, and every blow hits.
If he needed these glasses to see, it damn sure isn't apparent.

He gets me in the nose, cuts me lightly in arm with the blade, jabs me again in the stomach... he just doesn't stop. His last strike slams the shaft up into my chin, knocking me on my ass in front of the altar. I also dropped the glasses.
How is he so strong...?
Dammit. h-He's going to kill me isn't he? I can't... I have to get up... can't mo-

"Haaa... NGH!!" I wheeze out.
Sudden massive headache. Gone as soon as it came. Hyperventilating.
Room's real damn warm suddenly. Can't think straight. Something wrong.

>I'm out of ideas, honestly but...
>PLEDGE YOUR SOUL TO KHORNE AND PRAY FOR HIS BLESSING!

"Corn... Corn? Corn."
Voices in my head gone crazy. Might as well go too.
Easily shove myself to my feet, raising my arms toward the little meatbag. Room's on fucking fire...
"CORN! BLOOD FOR THE CORN GOD!"
Can't stop smiling now. Arms feel stiff. Something definitely wrong.



Little meatbag steps back. Looks scared.
"A berserker?? Damn! And this one's gone off the deep end..."
Gonna move closer...

>Do a cool kick-flip and knock the spear out of his hand
>Run away. For real this time.

Not that agile, crazy voice. Got a better idea though... Ain't running either. Can't.
I leap forward and swipe at his little stick. Meatbag tries to guard with it. Snaps right in two.
"Hn?!"

Still stunned from me breaking his little toy. I grab him by his collar and lift him up by one arm. Little bastard feels weightless.
Dropped the bottom end of his stick thing.
"Hnhnhn..."
Drawin' back for a punch...

> Say you're sorry but the necklace commands you to protect it at all costs.

Think we're pretty far past sorries, crazy voices. Little meatbag nee-
*Shnk!*
Oh. Still has the other end. Stabbed it into my leg. Bastard. Hurts a little. Made me drop him.
"Rgh...HA! I don't have time to deal with your new problem, Miss Licia! I think we'd both be better off if you went to sleep for a while."
Hand's on the little handle. He presses a button on it. It starts buzzing.



...Pain.
A lot of pain. Intense, searing pain shoots through my whole body. What did he do...
Shaking. Arms and legs are locking up.
"hraaAAAGH.... HRGH.... NAAAAAAGH!!!"
I fall to my knees.
"Very sorry about this! Wouldn't have happened if you had just given me the amulet."

So damn painful... can't take it. I fall to the floor...



The pain eventually disappears... but... I can't seem... to stay... he's gonna... take... ungh...

[Thade]

>Well. RIP Prota.
>I'm gonna fuck that little prick up though, mark my words.

[Mr. Fountain]

>We'll protest!
>We only talk to you, Licia!

[Megantron]

> Licia! Stand up and fight!

[Seccom-Masada]

Licia has lost consciousness...
