Thistle felt his breath leave him as a dark shape hurtled up to catch him. He closed his eyes, waiting for the end.
Instead, he felt the heat that was slowly causing his skin to peel away lessen, the disappear suddenly. He stifled a cough, breathing hard. "Starfire?" he whispered, momentarily confused. "Oh. Thanks for the save. Seems I owe you one." He looked around, confused. "Where are we?" he asked, whispering in the girls ear. "And when can we get out of here? Fire isn't really my friend." He gestured to his badly chapped skin.
He flexed, rolling his shoulder. "Oww..." Letting his inner power out again, he quickly healed all his wounds. It was a trick that took concentration, and couldn't be performed in the heat of battle.

Starfire stayed quiet until they reached the bottom of the stairs, her grip still tight around Thistles wrist, she checked around the corner and heard nothing she camly walked around the corner. Seeing the chains lined up against the walls with bits off blood splatter on the wall behind it she continued to walk until she got to a room.
She didn't dare go in but sat outside the door. She let out a loud sigh as she began to catch her breath again. "We're in the dungon, or well part of it. I told you not to pull anything and you go and pull some shit that will cause a lot more shit for me since I brought you here... Thanks." She closed her eyes as she moved the hair that hung in her face to the top of her head. "I've never actually been down here. But that doesn't matter. We just have to stay down here until things die down. We could sleep or something." She shrugged keeping her voice low. "Basically just wait till what's his face doesn't wan to kill you then we could make a run for it." Star suggested.

Moving slowly, the demon stalked down the hall. Two guards turned the corner, eyes going wide when they saw him; red hot, bloody and disheveled. Just a glare was all they needed to turn and move on.
There were so many halls, doors, corners to hide. His armor was even starting to cool off already, the white hot glow fading to red and then back to the dark gray of it's regular color.
Shifting his now folded injured wing, Zell grimaced. That white light certainly packed a punch, not one he cared to be hit with again.

Thistle stopped, causing Star-fire to turn around and face him.
"No." He declared, staring at her. "No more running. I'm sorry, but there is only one way out of this." He took a deep breath.
"Kill me." He gulped, looking past the girl. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. Kill me, and call Zell down here. Then, after he is satisfied, heal my dead body."
Letting out a sigh, Thistle fell back, his soul leaving his body.

"What!? No!?" Before she knew it of he could respond, he was laying unconscious on the ground. She sighed and and ran a hard throigh her hair again. Star grabbed her staff and gabbed it through his chest. Pulling it put of his lifeless body she watched the blood leave his chest. Star wanted to make it look like they had fought she put his blood on her arms.
Cautiously she walked back up the stars covered in blood looking for the armored demon.

Hearing a sound behind him, the general whirled around, letting his weapon fly with him. Seeing that it was only the girl he stopped his weapons path just as it reached the scouts neck. "You."
Zell stepped closer to her, the waves of heat rolling off his body caused the air to ripple. "Where did he go?" His accented voice was rough and angry before he noticed the blood on her. Furrowing his brow, his left eye flickered with fire. That's interesting....

Her eyes went wide as she stared at him. "I killed him. That was the reason why I brought him here. But you had to get in the way." She hissed pointing a finger at him. "I was going to show him around before I brought him downstairs to the dungeon so I could kill him. But you left the perfect opening when he dropped." Lying at every word she said or mentioned she sighed before she ran a hand through her hair. Star was trying so hard to keep it together. She turned on her heals and began walking back down the stairs. "Follow if you wish but he's dead."

The general glared at her skeptically. He had just spent the last twenty minutes battling that man yet this girl was able to kill him so easily? "Let us remember who attacked first." He growled, before crossing his arm and following her. This he had to see to believe.

She smiled at his comment. "Remember who was close to him."
Alking down the stairs and turning a corner there laid the dead body with a stab wound right through his chest, blood on the floor and her weapon beside him. "See. I told you."

A look of dissapointment crossed the generals face as his flaming eyes fell the defeated man. He sighed, stepping over and nudging the body with his still steaming steel boot. "Its a pity really." his lilting voice was back to its mask of indifference. "He was a strong opponent. I would have liked to see if his strength was enough to defeat me."
Something didn't seem right about the whole thing...but it was over now so what did it matter. "Next time you're looking to kill someone don't do it in my domain, girl." Zell turned, towering over the scout as his eyes returned to normal, his body cooling. "I don't care what the lord has to say, if you cause me any more trouble I'll fry you."

She stared ar Zell, straight in the eyes. She feared for her life but didn't show it, an urge to mimic him made her giggle. "Do you mind calling me by my name? Girl sounds, pathetic adding the fact that I can fight by your men ad I can beat this one and you couldn't prove's that i'm more then just a child." Crossing her arms over her chest she took a step back a kneeled in front of Thistle. "It was an easy kill really."

Expression unchanging zell crouched down in front of the half demon, leaning in. Voice almost a whisper, he spoke. "It's easy to stab someone in the back, catch them off guard."
Lighting fast he grabbed her upper arm pulling her closer, his iron grip almost scalding hot. "I could always show you later." his whisper was dangerous.
Letting go, he stood, voice back to normal its normal calm volume. "But I much rather face my enemy head on. You may have survived one battle but you're still a child. If you ever fancy facing me in head on combat, talk back to me again." Even though his face was solemn his eyes flashed with fire, almost challenging her to.

She pulled her arm back from his grip. She hated him, even more then the monster in her head. "I didn't stab him in the back. Look." She said turning the lifeless body over, seeing that the staff didn't get all the way through his chest just enough to kill him. She stood up again. "I'm not fighting you." Her voice going to a whisper, she felt weak, almost defeated by such simply words.
"You're a monster..." Her voice was quiet she was almost asking to die. Her eyes stayed focusing on the ground. If she looked up, who knows what would happen. "You're nothing. You're.... Alone." She finished before looking at Thistle. The feeling of emptiness filled her.

The general actually laughed, his deep voice ringing through the dungeons. "A monster? Why? For doing my duty? For defending myself against an intruder to this plane who seemed hell bent on killing me? For disciplining someone who keeps bringing up the fact that she's strong enough to fight in my army but will not bow to it's commander?" He snorted. "I will have you know that, in fact, I had not intended for our little confrontation in the throne room to come to blows. Let us remember who attacked first."
Zell furrowed his brow as sweat beaded on his forehead, not from the heat, but rather from the poison that coursed through his veins. White light. Toxic stuff.
Crossing his arms he stared down at her. "You were the one who betrayed someone who seemed to trust you, child. I'm not the one who is alone. And where that came from, I can't begin to imagine. Reflecting your own feelings onto me perhaps?" He cocked his head to the side, expression indifferent. With a small sigh, he finally turned and started walking back to the flight of stairs. "He was a strong opponent and I respect that, try and deal with his body respectively."

She closed her eyes, maybe he was right. "Oh, I will." She mumbled off to herself, the sound of clattering of armor followed him up the stairs. She didn't care for him and she is strong enough to fight in that army, she would never bow to someone like him. Starfire thought about little things but one stood out the most. Quickly she jumpe over Thistle's body, grabbing her staff she quietly followed Zell up the stairs. Quietly she hesitated to place a hand on his wing and begin to chant the heal spell.
The feeling tugging at her to do it but the fct that she will regret it, knowing that he was stronger then her, starfire gripped onto Zell's wing and quickly began to chant. "Swprd cut spear stab mace smash arrow jab let the white light of healing desend upon thee," she continued the chant as the white light flowed through her into him.
