"And Tris... You shouldn't have use that fire on me. Please, will you promise me you will not use it on me again? I don't want to cause you to drained your power and be opened for a attack," Nyx said.
"That fire had nothing to do with it," I answered, but then stopped. I couldn't let on that I knew anything about my psychotic state and how the Leader had drained my energy at that exact moment to be used later during the state.... "I just haven't slept in a while...."
"Tris don't lie to me," Nyx answered, "You always make that face when you lie....like you are ready to laugh it off...."
"Then don't lie to me and act like you really care," I answered.
"Tris...." Nyx statred.
"Look I don't want to see any of that crying and what not. We're not little kids anymore," I answered.
"Tris I didn't mean it like that...." Nyx started.
"And stop calling me little kid names like Tris. It's Triskix," I said. Suddenly I felt a burning sensation in my neck. The Leader was using the Pact. My fingers went up involuntarily and felt at the invisible ties.
"Tris...kix.....are you ok?" Nyx asked.
"Kinda sore thanks to RaXi here, but other than that fine. I would heal up all these bruises...." I lied. I could feel the pact ties tightening to the exstent I was going to be strangled. "Either way...it looks like the fights have to be stopped..." Still tighter.... "And it was a nice show....guess I'll just pass everyone...." I tried to sound calm but my vitals were in a panic.. "Also I need you to take over for a bit. Just send everyone back to the caastle and have them do whatever..I'll be back..."
I opened a portal and walked through. The tie was becoming looser as I appeared in the Leader's room, but they were still at a point that seemed ready to kill me.
"You called?" I asked glaring at him.
"Yes.....I wanted to let you know that I won't do any more experiments on you, but the process seems to be going according to plan. With all of the elements here it will soon be possible."
"And then I get my goal," I answered, "but something tells me it won't be that easy...."
"Of course not. We can't begin to until they have become stronger..."
"Fine....I'll begin missions in a day....most need a chance to recover and thanks to you I have to put on an act that the healing fire takes a lot out of me...."
"Ah yes sorry for that inconvenience...."
"It's nothing," I answered, "Is that all?"
"Yes....oh and also there have been signs that Kristian has been growing in strength. Just though I'd tell you."
"If he comes I'll kill him simple as that," I answered.
"I bet you would," the Leader laughed, "Anyways I'll let you get back to your ordered chaos...."
"Ordered chaos? sounds about right...." I answered walking away.
