[QUOTE="eris404, post: 2819482, member: 5338"] Jade arranges the sleeping boy and Serai side by side on the ground and tends to them. Their pulses and breathing are strong, so he leaves them for the moment to free the children in the cage. The encaged boy is suspicious and watches the elf closely as he picks the lock on the door. Opening the door, Jade says, "It's alright. We're here to help you." There is a bright flash in Jade's face. He is blinded by the afterimages dancing before his eyes, but he still has his wits about him. "The children are under a spell!" Jade warns. He grabs the sleeping girl and realizes she is comatose, her breath frighteningly shallow. "You're evil!" the boy hisses. "You're here to kill us!" His face is a snarling mask twisted by fear and anger. He reaches for the girl, but Vor (Martha) lashes out from under Jade's cloak. With a menacing hiss, the snake snaps at the boy, barely missing his pudgy hand. Both George and Dante try to placate the boy, who fights and spits at them passionately, and so they find themselves simply tying his hands and feet. He squirms violently and curses as they carry him to rest with the others. While Jade minds his charges, George loots the bodies of the dead and drags them to the firepit. He loathes the idea of burning them here and now and decides to wait until the others are ready to leave. Jade gently shakes Serai awake. She blinks in confusion, looking first at Ishii, then Dante. "I'm sorry, Serai," Dante says, but she turns away, her face as cool and set as stone. "We should rest here," Dante suggests. Looking around at the blood and bodies, he amends, "Just for a bit, of course. We'll need our strength for the journey back." George finishes his grim work and crouches next to Serai. "I'm sorry, too," he whispers. "George, keep an eye on them," Serai whispers back, eyes wide with fear. "They're still under the nymph's charm. They might do something...rash." Unnerved, George rises and backs away. With relief, he notices that Jade, Dante and Ishii are huddled together a little way away. Between them, he sees the glowing blue crystal which they are contemplating. [/QUOTE]
