[Rp Locked to Pandoras_closet]

[element_wizard]

There had been a note at the front desk at the Inn for Alec. A request from Dale to meet him at a set of coordinates. The note didn't say anything else. It was kind of on the odd side, but Dale was odd.   So  after dropping off the  Spear of Fire with the other four weapons and trying to get the blue dye out of his hair (which didn't work at all) Alec portled himself there.

There being a rather random looking rocky planet that looked like Vasquze Rocks. And nothing else really, except for a metal structure with a series of doors.  It looked like it was just a wall... with doors.

But Dale was there.

Shoving the portal generator into his pack, Alec walked over to the Caretaker with a wave. "Got your note."

"Naaahg!" he screams in frustration and gestures out with a wave of power. Lorac explodes messily.

*Cycle restarts, as though to say: "Do it again. Prove it."

[elementwizard.livejournal.com]

A solid spike of earth shoots through the ground, spearing Lorac onto it until he its the ceiling and then after a few seconds of effort goes through the celing as well.

*Restart, but this time, Lorac is just standing there, his emotions, however, are coming in very clear over the link,* Alec, I love you, come with me. *Lorac's emotions hammer at Alec trying to override Alec's feelings with his own.*

[elementwizard.livejournal.com]

While that's all fine and good, Alec left that thinking part back a bunch of cyles ago and does a rather Pavlovs dog reaction of slicing right into Lorac and cutting him down.

*Restart* Alec? What happened? Where are we? *Again the other man's emotion's hammer at Alec*

[elementwizard.livejournal.com]

Being stuck in "Kill" mode doesn't really leave much room for conversation. There's a lovely spray of blood though.

*Everything goes black and then all of the trauma and rage in Alec goes away. The memories, knowledge, powers, and skills he's gained remain, but the trauma is as though it happened to someone else and has nothing to do with him. There's not even horror at what he went through. He feels relaxed and rested. Then the door swings open, ushering in the sunlight.*

Well most of the rage at least. The rage against Lorac is gone. Alec stands up and tests the weight of the sword in his hand. Still there. Still solid. Yes, very good. He steps outside, blinking in the sunlight.

When he sees Dale,he starts a full out charge sword flashing that white that it did when it started cutting through time and space. If it connects, it's probably going to hurt. Alot.

*Flicks a finger and Alec is frozen in mid run from the neck down, but can still speak* You seem to be a bit miffed. *Lights a cigar and puffs* You have every right to be, I suppose, but consider what just happened.

[elementwizard.livejournal.com]

Alec struggles frozen, trying to slip out of it by trying to slip out of the time and space that he was in. He blurs, his eyes focused on Dale with deadly intent. He doesn't seem to be in the mood for conversation or reflection.

*Matches Alec's attempts to free himself with countermeasures* I'm a Caretaker, Alec. You know better than to try and out power me.

[elementwizard.livejournal.com]

He really doesn't stop trying.

*Settles down and waits for Alec to either calm down or wear himself out*

[elementwizard.livejournal.com]

The ground explodes under the Caretaker in a hail of fiery chuncks.

*When the smoke clears, Caretaker is seated in mid-air over the crater* Cute *The chunks fly back in, and fills the crater back up. Within moments, it's as though it never happened*

Ready to listen to sense yet?

[elementwizard.livejournal.com]

He quites down, still glowering at him.

[pandoras-closet.livejournal.com]

What did you learn in there?

[elementwizard.livejournal.com]

Instead of answering him, Alec goes sullen. If he can't chop Dale into tiny little pieces, he'll just be difficult.

[pandoras-closet.livejournal.com]

Suit yourself. *Settles in to wait, knowing Alec all too well.*

[elementwizard.livejournal.com]

It's going to be a long wait. As the youngest of three children and being slightly spoilt, he has turned being sullen into a fine art. He also puts in a bit of a sulk.

[pandoras-closet.livejournal.com]

*Calmly lights a cigar and smokes it reflectivly, and continues to wait*

[elementwizard.livejournal.com]

The cigar explodes. He doesn't say anything.

[pandoras-closet.livejournal.com]

*Merely lights another one* I can understand you wanting to beat the hell out of me. But do you want to know why?

[elementwizard.livejournal.com]

"No. I'd rather splater you blood around the surrounding country side and leave your body parts for vultures to eat."
