" I bet you'd say anything to get me to stop wouldn't you?" Keyra turned at every crossing listening as Phelan closed in on her.
"I'll leave once my swords have been returned to me.... I have to teach the elves a lesson of loyaltyand then the humans to stay out of my forest." Keyra said catching her breath.
"No I just want you out ... Keyra take the peaceful way out.." Phelan pleaded to her.
Keyra laughed for a moment before dashing a differentt direction. "You really want me out... Just like all those years ago. I helped you and you turned on me..... I just wanted to see your newborn son and you wouldn't let me do that.... You want me to listen to you now, when I was on your side and wished you no ill will you helped to cast me out."
Now Phelan caught a view of Keyra heading towards the dinning hall and still kept after her.
"Isn't this fun..... I spent many years being an outcast... I'm use to this life now... but to lose children was the hardest part, and I want you to share that.... watch me kill your son.... But I assume you've had a few years so there must be more. Can I kill them too?
Darlena had cut the head from the gaurds body to prevent a wild lycanthrope from being created. Naldany was calming the maidens as Nikkii began to organize the gaurd for an interior search Olantar and Blexanu had already taken off behind Phelan.
"Naldany I must locate the children... Keyra might be here for them thinking revenge. She had a few offspring but they was killed by hunters and her own poisons.... She might be seeking to do the same here.." Nikkii picked up the front of her robe to her her move faster as she went towards the bed chamber area.

"Keyra, why don't you just turn and fight me? You keep saying you were on my side, but you tried to kill me I don't know how many times. You think everyone owes you something, but you are nothing more than a cutpurse murder and a coward. I have shown time and time again that I don't want to fight you and offered you time and time again a solution, but you refuse. You are afraid of being normal, afraid of living a nice life, we all have been wronged against, you must choose what your response will be.
You chose to kill innocent people. You choose to continue to do so and now you are trying to kill me and my family. So I call it as I see it, YOU ARE A COWARD!" Phelan ended shouting at her as they came into the dining room and circled each other.

"There is no innocent ones in this land, you would know that." Keyra circled her way keeping Phelan across from her. "I see Nikkii never bothered to try and get a protective barrier for you.... That girl that you had the boy with has a mark and Darlena is one of my kind already but.... you can be turned. " Keyra bared her fangs at Phelan and started to change to a werewolf.
"Daddy look out....." a small girl's voice came from the side of the room where the cooking was done.
Keyra's eyes fixed over there and she halted her transformation. "Is she innocent? I bet she has a sin..... Now what will it be? Save her or save yourself......"
It was then Olantar came into the room and Blexanu grabbed Zealott from the doorway dashing with her out of the room.

Phelan lunged as she turned for Blexanu, who was dashing away. His blade sunk into her leg and a howl like nothing Phelan had ever heard came from Keyra. It reverberated throughout the church.
A massive grotesque head turned back to look at Phelan who was now putting a bit of distance between himself and the beast. The glowing red eyes burned with hate and narrowed as they pierced through Phelan. Phelan felt dread wash over him. He calmed his nerves and set about the task of defending the almost definate onslaught. He relaxed his muscles so that when he called his strength to them they would spring like a machine.
Keyra and Phelan stood staring at one another. Time seemed to stand still, saliva dripped from the fangs of Keyra and hit the ground with wet thuds. Phelan didnt' move a muscle and the floor groaned beneath Kerya, as they sized each other up.

Keyra would make the first move leaping right for Phelan taking a swing at his head. He rolled out of the way avoiding what would have been a fatal strike. A giant chuck was missing from the chair she hit on the way over.
The howl only made Nikkii hurry towards it, close by Aramis was watching thru a crack in the door. Nikkii pinched the back of his neck and pulled him from the door.
"Ow grandmother I think that she is in there and fighting with father ..... Zealott , I left her in there." Aramis said looking up at Nikkii.
Nikkii pushed him aside and gave him an evil glare. "Boy, cowardness does not suit your heritage... follow me. I will put her down like I should how done years ago. Keyra was much more bulky having exchanged speed for strength, allowing Phelan to get a few slashes in when she missed but with every other miss she would land a hit of her own. Nikkii obsevered now how both parties had their share of damages, Keyra's arm's bled but was healing already, Phelan with an angry slash to his chest. Nikkii stepped forward chanting spell increasing her own prowess and as Keyra went to strike again she was halted in her tracks unable to move. Then that was quickly followed with red markings covering her body.
"Keyra you know what will happen if you make another aggressive move with the brans placed on you ... now stand down girl... or I'll destroy you." Nikkii said her hands glowing ready to execute another spell.

Phelan curled his lips, bared his teeth and snarled at Keyra.
"Why wait?! She is the only person I have met, besides perhaps your parents, that has such a capacity for hate and evil!" Phelan roared drawing back his sword to finish the job himself.

"I'll finish her Father... watch ."Aramis said dashing out from behind Nikkii.
"Aramis NO!!!" Nikkii shouted but the boy was swinging Keyra's own swords to stike her down.
Keyra reverted her form to make the boy miss and make minor contact with her. That however, broke the root spell freeing Keyra. As Aramis fell over Keyra's back she jerked him down by the wrist dislocating his right hand. Blood flashed from Keyra's body from the brands reaction to aggression. Taking the swords from the boy she was hit by Nikkii's spell. The burning smell for her flesh was sickening, but she grit her teeth and launched an dagger into Aramis' leg and another into Nikkii's hand. Keyra made use of this time to dart past Nikkii while she attempted to pull the dagger from her hand.
Keyra was lost now she couldn't tell which way the exit was and she needed time to heal, so she cast her vanishing spell and went further down into the holding cell area.
"This is the last place they would look for you Keyra.... just need a bit of time to heal this leg wound." Keyra muttered to herself.

Phelan rushed to the boy and gathered him in his arms. Then over to Nikkii who was trying to unlodge the dagger from her hand. Phelan helped by giving it a hard pull and it came free with a gush of blood that streaked the floor.
"Will you two be ok?" Phelan asked.

"Yes I will see to Aramis get her out of here or something, I will treat him in a minute." Nikkii had started her healing spell. "Phelan she is injured and treat her as you would an injured animal."
Phelan nodded to her and went out in the direction Keyra did. Darlena was following her scent wen Phelan crossed her.
"If your looking for Zealott she is with Naldany and Tailu in the ceremony chamber under Blexanu's care.... but Keyra is still here in the house... odd thing is she smells as though she is bloodied and went down the stairs to the holding cells." Darlena Had her sword drawn and ready as she lead the way downstairs.
"Your mother and myself did some damage to her, but in the end it was hard to tell the extent." Phelan said.
"I know her abilities aren't as strong as my own, so she might be uncapable of fighting. "
The cell area was dark and cold Darlena took one of the candles from the walls. Soon they came apon a wounded and near sleeping Keyra in the back of a cell. Darlena kicked the cell door shut startling Keyra.
"No .... you can't Keep me here." Keyra protested running up to the door.
Darlena punched her in the face sending her to the floor. Keyra put her hand to her cheek.
"You hit as hard as Kyrinn did..... no wonder he hated you so much." Keyra commented.
"Kyrinn!!! He is alive?" Darlena asked shocked by what she herd.
"No ..... He perished many years ago another victim to my poison." Keyra smirked.

Olantar was soon down there along side Phelan he looked in amazement at Keyra locked in a cell.
"Oh listen to you .... you said I am evil look at you all you can think of is to kill me...... pathetic. You know you can't beat me on your own so you use a woman to do your dirty work, you lacky lapdog." Keyra brooded and growled at them as she backed herself into a corner."
"You said Kyrinn and you knew him from your time as a hunter.... With my mother?" Darlena pushed for a quick answer from Keyra but Keyra was not going to give it to her that quickly.
"Yes.... when I was Lady Nikkii's ward... I pulled him from the dessert and she healed him..." Keyra said sliding down to a seated position.
Nikkii and Naldany came down to where they was now.
"Excellent... she is caught." Naldany said smiling to Phelan. "We can turn over her corpse to the counsil and this could elevate our houses standing in Neriak.
"Mother.... you knew Kyrinn? I never knew that you knew him and didn't tell me that you helped him." Darlena turned to Nikkii.
Nikkii looked shocked at first then frowned and looked to Keyra. "Yes he even became a hunter such as myself but I thought he succumbed to the curse years ago."
"No mistress he survived and lead his own hunting group that assisted in the slaughter of my pack and my young." Keyra said standing back up carefully pulling a pouch from her sleeve and cupping it in her hand.
"Your young for the most part killed by your own poisons from what I understand..." Nikkii turned her back to Keyra and looked back to Darlena who was looked very frustated.
"No !!!! they made me do it..." Keyra threw the pouch that burst open when Phelan reached over to stop it from hitting Darlena. I pink dust cloud surrounded them for a few moments doing little more that making them cough.
"What was that and attempt to dirty us with dust." Naldany said wiping her face clear.
Nikkii was brushing her arms and her eyes grew wide, Keyra started laughing.
"No I remeber how much the mistress kept her desires in check, always in control and used lust to manipulate others into doing as she wished..... well now she won't be able to and in fact her lust will control her...... and you other two. You will see in a few hours." Keyra stepped back from the door and sat back down.
"You little lier when I get the key I'm comming in there to kill you." Darlena growled.
Nikkii pulled her back and sook her head. "No she isn't lying that was a mixure of herbs that stimulate desire in women and we need to get an antidote for this or...... Keyra give me the antidote, Now! I know you always keep some with you."
"Nope .... not this time... I left it in my home. Your gonna kill me anyway so I see no reason to help you.. so enjoy constantly seeking a man's touch for the next few months."

"Lets get this over with before you all go man crazy and lose your wits." Phelan glanced to Naldany and chuckled at the thought of her over the next few months. "and you....you and I are going to have some fun." Phelan said to Keyra pulling a whip from the wall.
Phelan knew that he could easily hit her through the bars, for most it would be next to impossible to do, but Phelan had an uncanny dexterity for such things. He drew back the whip and sent it forward, slicing through the air. The crack was deafening as he pulled back on the whip and it connected with Keyra's face. She howled in pain again and wiped the blood from her cheek.
"Let's just see how fast you can reheal." Phelan said in a cool muderous tone.

The fleah wound slowly healed before his eyes as Keyra grinned at him.
"Me go with you? Your mad, hey now that I thought about it there was another girl she was fun to play with like you.... " She was cracked with the whip again. "Or you can keep hitting me with that ....and they go crazy with lust." Keyra chuckled.

Phelan cracked the whip on her again and again and again, until blood flew in the air. Screams echoed throughout the lower floor.
"Just tell them what they need to know or we can do this for days, months, years, pretty much however long your healing can keep you alive. You thought you have known suffering? I think you will be in for a suprise, I gave you the option to leave peacefully, but you have tested my paitence for the last time." Phelan said as he raised the whip for another blow.

"Wait , you hit me again and I'll turn these swords on you the moment you leave." Keyra's cuts started to close. "And if I get to full strenght you know I'll get out. But I won't kill you .... I'll sire you." Keyra braced for another hit closing her eyes.
"My'love...." Naldany had placed her arms around him and was cuddling him. Darlena shuttered looking at them and ran out, Nikkii glanced for a second at them."I must find some way of surpressing this..... "
Keyra giggled at them leaving. "It starts... my the morning she will crave your touch ...... or any man's. I can take you to it but you have to let lil ol' me out."
