Diamond 1: Emma Frost [In Person]

[One of the bedroom doors bursts open and a blond woman dressed all in white walks out. She looks from side to side, cautiously, before walking down the hall.]

Scott? Hank? Logan?

[She stops, closes her eyes and presses her hands to the sides of her head. For a moment she is quiet, then she looks confused, and a little worried.]

...where am I?

[She frowns.]

I admit that the idea of being toyed with by some adolescent girl doesn't sit well with me. Seeing as we're all in the same situation...well, we have a common goal now, don't we?

[Not that it means people won't have secrets still. She's still wary.]

[He gives a nod, though his body language has lost the venom it once had. Business, tactics, fighting, those things were his safe zone.]

So far we've all managed to only combine our forces once. Even then there were people that very nearly screwed it up. Everyone has their own ideals as to how we're supposed to defend ourselves from the brat.

If this girl really has as much control over this dimension, this place, as it seems, it doesn't look like there's much we can do.

Though I'm curious. What caused everyone here to team up?

Essentially no. We can only resist. The only way I've seen people leave is they disappear without warning.

[Approaching the nearest window in the corridor he points out of it. The campsite was faded from all the snow, but it was still almost visible by the lake.]

We were forced out of the Manor by monsters called Kishin. Humans who had fed on the souls of others to attain strengh - disgusting things. We had to join forces and host an assault on the Manor. One team acted as a distraction to lure the Kishin away and others infiltrated the Manor to destroy their leader. Thankfully we had only two fatalities.

[She processes all this quietly.]

So. This girl put everyone here in a dangerous and fatal situation. And two people died.

Does she do this for simple amusement? Or is it an experiment?

[He gives a bitter laugh. Visibly tensing. Damned survivor syndrome kicking in.]

For her entertainment of course. If I had my way no one would have died.

It's not the first time either. She'll do it again. She won't care, whatever creates drama or makes it more interesting.

[Flexing his hands he feels himself transforming into that very large panther with the same red eyes as him. Growling at the back of his throat.]

How very twisted. If there was a way to contact her...

[But, apparently, there isn't, and they're cut off from the outside world.

She watches as Shiki transforms into a panther. Her expression suggests mild interest.]

Can't control that, can you?

[He shakes his head, to both matters. Thankfully this time round of becoming it she granted him a larynx of sorts. Though his voice has a deeper husk, a lingering growl.]

No. The closest we have is the rabbit. Even then he's the messenger from her.

It just happens, more often when I am angry.

[She pinches the bridge of her nose.]

We have a bloody rabbit as a go-between? Dear lord...

Perhaps you should stay calm, then.

[Sitting himself down he nods.]

You now understand what foolishness we have to live with?

Easier said than done.

[Though he's trying to follow the meditation thing Piccolo taught him. Just take deep breaths to steady the pulse.]

I imagine it only gets worse. God, I've been here for fifteen minutes and I'm already starting to hate it.

[Shiki lowers his head.]

Every so often we get a reprieve. She'll send us to somewhere that isn't the Manor, and allow us free reign of the city she sends us. We just came back from one a week ago.

Let me guess. There's no way out of those cities, is there? Or else we could all be on our merry little ways.

Of course. There is a fog that surrounds the boundaries, if we walk into it then we emerge right back where we entered but disorientated.

[For a moment he seems to rise up on his hind legs as he switches back to his human state, finally calming himself. Though sadly his ears seem to have remained.]

[The ears make her smile.]

They suit you.

Well, I suppose it was too much to hope that there would be such a simple way out. At least there's field trips to look forward to, I suppose.

[In response to that her ears draw flat against his head. Mostly in annoyance at the power than her.]

Thank you.

I suppose. Though if you go outside I'd advise dressing more for the occasion.

[She smirks, and flips her cape over her shoulder.]

I think I'll be alright. I'm resilient.

[Raising his brows he snorts.]

I'm so surprised.

Are you? Don't be. I'm full of surprises.

That I don't doubt.

[Though he couldn't help but wonder how many were down to unwanted rashes.]

Mmm. Never do.

[None, as it turns out =|]

You've been here for a long enough time. What is there to do around here, other than dance at the end of the Author's puppet strings?

[~~Of course Shiki's just a bitch.~~]

There's a training gym, a pool, tennis courts, games room, library. Enough to occupy someone for a long stretch of time.

~~[yep. Just like Emma]~~

Well, if we're all here for as long as you suggest, I'll need them.

[~~This'll be the start of a wonderful few cat fights.~~]

Whatever appeals. If you'll excuse me, I'm going to the training room.

~~[I'm very excited.]~~

Very well. I think I need to explore my new...home...a bit. It's been a pleasure, Shiki.
