Hel takes a breath of relief. She extends her hand out to Vozreal, about to seal the deal and keep her promise, until IAMUS appeared right in front of Hel. Hex growls out What!? But they're both too slow for IAMUS when he impales Hel with the needle.
A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A ! ! ! ! !
Her shriek fills the room as Hel gapes at the needle sticking into her chest. The runes glow and sear inside her flesh as the manifestation runes she casted on herself fight for dominance. She kneels to the ground, clutching the needle and bends her head to the floor as she screams in pain.
Hex looks behind her and stands back in shock and fury at her writhing sister.
Writhing in pain.
A pain she did not cause.
Hex bares her teeth at IAMUS and her hair becomes razor sharp and volatile. Her claws become huge and deadly. Her gaze hungry and wrathful.
YOU IMPUDENT FUCKING SON OF A SOW BITCH!!!
She lunges her claw forward and impales him through his midsection with her index and middle digits. Then she curls her claw into a fist and begins slamming him over and over into the ground with relentless force.
SHE IS MY PREY!!! HER FLESH IS ONLY FOR MY TEETH!!! HER BLOOD TO MY THROAT!!! HER SOUL IN MY CHASM!!! YOU ARE NOT HER DEATH!!! HER PREDATOR!!! HER HUNTER!!! HER SISTER!!!
She slams him into the ground one more time and the earth breaks beneath into a huge crater.
I AM!!!!!
Meanwhile as Hex does The Thing, Hel feels her grip onto this world slipping away as the needle further deactivates her existence. The voice from before rings in her head.
