Travis laughed again."You know, I like you. More then all the others. Most girls start blubbering at this point. But you..."
He reached out a hand, caressing her cheek.
"You I will enjoy breaking"
"You won't touch me."
She jerked away from his touch..
She was a little scared
She jerked away from his touch..
She was a little scared
"Oh I won't, will I?" Travis said, amusement in his voice once more.He wondered who her godly parent was.
Or if she could use her powers to defend herself at all.
Well it didn't matter. He was a very powerful child of Hecate. Whatever she tried to throw at him, he could crush.
Courtney glared.
"Don't test me boy."
She spat
"Don't test me boy."
She spat
Travis lowered himself down to the ground so he was eye level with her."Such a pretty flower. I will quite enjoy snapping your delicate stem" he said, hands going down to her waist as if he hadn't heard what she'd said.
Troy stopped running, panting as he looked around frantically.
He hadn't heard another scream in quite a while and was beginning to feel...lost. Where are they?!
Courtney gasped eyes widening.
"Get off!!"
Vines shot out wrapping around his neck
"Get off!!"
Vines shot out wrapping around his neck
Ah, so a Demeter.Travis whispered a quick incantation, and the vines blackened, then died.
They fell away from him, writhing on the ground.
"Nice try"
Oh look, she was already starting to shake.Travis leaned closer.
There was a predatory gleam in his eyes.
"Courtney!" Troy yelled, cupping his hands over his mouth.
He was getting desperate.
He tried again, louder this time.
"COURTNEY?!"
"TROy!"
She screamed.
Then whimpered
She screamed.
Then whimpered
Oh, thank the gods!Troy spun around and took off in the direction he'd heard the scream.
It had sounded like it was close by.
Travis sighed and rolled his eyes.
"Great. Now I have to use my powers on him too" he said, hands still on her waist.
"You won't use them on me."
She whispered.
She whispered.
There she went again.'You won't' this and 'You won't' that.
She was so scared.
It was...cute.
"Mmmm...I think I will" Travis answered, the perfect little spell suddenly popping into his head.
"No.." She said sternly.
"No!"
"No!"
"Ssssshhh"Travis put a finger to her lips.
He could hear something.
Voices.
Troy slowed, and then stopped entirely.
Maybe the element of surprise could somehow help him here.
There they are!
He ducked behind a tree, pressing his back against it.
Courtney's glared.
"Stop."
She mumbled gainst his finger.
"Stop."
She mumbled gainst his finger.
Okay, he needed to act before anything happened.I've got this
Troy jumped out from behind the tree, and before Travis could say anything, shouted what he needed to say.
"You will not use any of your powers on either of us until I say the word!" he yelled, using charmspeak.
Courtney was shaking with fear. Tied up.
Defenseless
Defenseless
Travis scowled.Dang it!
Stupid Aphrodite.
He stood up, sighing as he turned to face Troy.
"Why hello there"
Courtney siGhed with relief.
"Troy.."
She whispered
"Troy.."
She whispered
"Sorry I didn't get here sooner" Troy said curtly before turning his attention back to Travis.He couldn't let his guard down.
"Get away from her" he growled, using charmspeak once more.
Travis scowled and walked forward, stopping once he was a foot or so away from Troy.
Courtney trembled.
She couldn't move.
What if he do something to Troy!?!
She couldn't move.
What if he do something to Troy!?!
Travis crossed his arms.Oh, this was going to be fun.
"Take what you said back" he ordered, meeting Troy's eyes.
Troy frowned.
"Take what back?"
"The thing about not being able to use my powers on you guys"
Courtney frowned.
"Troy just.. Walk away. I'll be one!"
"Troy just.. Walk away. I'll be one!"
Troy's eyes flashed with anger."What?! No! I'm NOT leaving you alone with him!" he practically yelled, a hint of panic in his voice.
This was not good...
Travis sighed.
He didn't really want to think up something to get around the whole 'not using powers' on them thing, but it didn't seem like he had a choice.
Courtney squirmed against the ropes.
She had to get loose
She had to get loose
Troy could see Travis thinking.He was somehow going to do something that would get them right back on square one.
Okay...think...think...
"Don't say anything" he said, using charmspeak once more.
Wait, could the guy do magic without saying anything?
Courtney looked around frantically. Come on!!
Travis's eyes narrowed.Did Troy really think that would solve this problem?
Ha!
Meanwhile, Troy was wishing for someone who could help him out to suddenly appear.
This guy is about as good at fighting as I am
"Okay.. Quit staring. Let's jut go.."
Garnet headed out to the field with her spear for practice- with her earplugs in, to get used to the situation she would eventually have to be in. Well, probably.
Troy looked at her.He wished it was that easy...
I'll just go over and untie her. Let's see what happens from there
He stepped around Travis, starting forward.
Courtney sighed.
This was.. She never felt so scared
This was.. She never felt so scared
Garnet found a practice dummy at the edge of the field and dragged it out further to the center. Then she began hacking at it with her spear. It was tricky, handling a weapon that didn't have a blade along it's entirety.
Hm, would it be more fun if the girl was untied?Travis decided to let him untie her.
He'd just tie her right back up after he was done with Troy.
Troy was soon in front of Courtney.
"I'm so sorry about this" he whispered into her ear as he started working on the ropes.
Gah, it was tight!
Courtney buried her face in his neck.
Just wanting him to hold her
Just wanting him to hold her
Troy swallowed hard. It was hard not to hug her right then and there.
But he needed to get the ropes off and away.
A LONG minute passed....
Finally, he got the ropes off.
Courtney's ankles and wrists were red and she wrapped her arms around him.
Courtney's ankles and wrists were red and she wrapped her arms around him.
SHe trembled.
She couldn't help it
SHe trembled.
She couldn't help it
Troy hadn't realized he'd been holding his breath until then.He let it out, relief crashing over him.
It was going to be okay.
They'd get out of this stupid situation.
Soon.
She stood still in his arms.
Her legs weak
Her legs weak
"Aw. This is so sweet Troy" Travis said, voice mocking.Troy's jaw clenched.
Hey...wait a second?!
How was the guy talking?!
Garnet thunked the dummy soundly over the head with the butt of her spear and then stabbed it through an imagined chink in it's armor and defenses. Dead as a doornail. Time to work with a monster dummy.
The charmspeak shouldn't have worn off that fast!Troy reluctantly pulled back, dropping his arms.
"Just run away. I'll take care of him" he said in a low voice, hands curling into fists.
"No.. I'm not leaving you wih... Him."
"I'll be fine" Troy lied, grabbing her by the shoulders and quickly spinning her around.He shoved her hard, hoping that would start her running.
Please
She glared.
Hands clenched
