[gilded-thoughts]

Enderian. My sister. I think it’d finally time we’ve talked.. it’s been awhile.

@creation-by-a-god

...What the fuck do you want?

[creation-by-a-god]

I- do you not know how to read?

Ehem.. as i said. I think it’s time we talked. It’s been far too long. Meet me here at this address.

[gilded-thoughts]

Why should I?

[creation-by-a-god]

Do you not want to see netherum again? After so long?

Or maybe even..

Isla?

[gilded-thoughts]

...Fine.

[Enderian shows up at the address, hands in her pockets. She looks older from stress; white hairs growing from her jet-black hair, wrinkles etched into her skin]

[creation-by-a-god]

[Fable stood inbetween a set of trees. He looked the same except for age.. and the glowing golden eyes]

“Enderian! It’s wonderful that you could join me today.”

[the-mind-goddess]

[Her eyes narrowed]

It's not like I have much of a choice.

[creation-by-a-god]

[He just smirked]

“Cheer up sister! We have so much to catch up on! Do you not agree?”

[gilded-thoughts]

Sure. How's my son? My partner? Siblings?

[creation-by-a-god]

“Rae is doing wonderful actually. Isla. I’m unsure about.. but netherum. Why don’t you ask him yourself.”

[Fable would reach for a communication device]

“Bring them in.”

[Suddenly some men would drag netherum over. Fable throwing his arm out at them]

“Go on then. Ask him.”

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian quickly reaches out for them]

Neth-

[creation-by-a-god]

“Ah ah ah- not so quickly.”

[Fable raises his hand to enderian, before turning to netherum]

“Remember when you said, you’d do anything for me netherum?”

@captive-fire

[captive-fire]

[Neth looks… broken]

[They’re painfully skinny, face sunken and tired. Bruises and scars - some new and fresh, others older and fading- litter their skin. She’s grown a bit of a beard and their eyes slowly look up and widen seeing Enderian. They hold themselves back from running to her, trembling slightly]

Y-yes…

[creation-by-a-god]

“I want you to go get enderian for me. In return, you’ll get more time with soul, as what we agreed upon. Deal?”

[He stared at him with a serious look]

[captive-fire]

[She forces himself to meet his eye before turning to Enderian]

I…im sorry, ‘derian-

[They start walking toward her]

@gilded-thoughts

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian puts the pieces together and backs away from Netherum, glaring at Fable]

How dare you-

@creation-by-a-god

[creation-by-a-god]

“Look enderian. It really isn’t anything personal.. or well maybe a little. I just need you out of the way is all and best way to do that is to bring you back with me.”

[He shrugged his shoulders like it really wasn’t that big of a deal before turning to netherum]

“Oh and if you try anything-“

[He pulls out a small handheld button, his finger hovering over it]

“I’ll press this button, and soul will not enjoy what comes to her. Are we clear? You. Get enderian. I’ll give you time and won’t hurt soul.”

@captive-fire

[captive-fire]

[The blood drains from their face seeing the button and they turn back to Enderian, just frozen for a moment. Before he’s not]

[She lunges at Enderian, hoping to catch her off-guard, grabbing her arm]

@gilded-thoughts

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian yelps, being caught off guard but quickly regaining her strength. She tries to pull away]

[captive-fire]

[Their other hand comes up and tries to grab her other arm. He’s holding on desperately, pure panic in their eyes at what’s being held over his head]

[gilded-thoughts]

[She's caught and panics]

Neth- Neth please it's okay- we're gonna get you all out- me and- and Perix, we- we have plans please-

[Tears prick her cheeks. She looks nothing like the older sister they grew up with; the one separating fights, holding her feelings back, staying strong. This Enderian looked so... young]

[captive-fire]

I- I cant- i cant lose her again- i cant let her get hurt-

[Tears run down her cheeks as he tackles her to the ground with their whole weight. As he’s on top of her, her whispers]

Punch me, hit me- and run- go- get out- now-

[They quietly beg her, trying to disguise his words as noises of struggle]

[gilded-thoughts]

[She doesn't. She just takes Neth's face in her hands, looks for a moment, and hugs them. She doesn't know if it's for them or herself, but she does anyway]

[captive-fire]

[Neth freezes again before melting into it, crying into her shoulder]

…please- just run- go- go- you.. you need to go- run-

[gilded-thoughts]

You'll get hurt.. they all will if I don't come, won't they..?

[captive-fire]

Only if i let you go, not if you escape me - just hit me and run- punch me- hurt me so they dont hurt her-

[gilded-thoughts]

I'm not hurting you. I won't be like him.

[captive-fire]

Please- then you can get everyone out-

[They pretend to start fighting her grip, quite convincingly]

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian takes a breath and lets go from the hug, trying to break free]

[captive-fire]

[Neth grabs her again, the look in his eye telling her to swing at him]

[gilded-thoughts]

[She hesitates before punching them in the jaw, quickly scrambling back up on the pavement]

@creation-by-a-god

[creation-by-a-god]

[Fable just watches. He doesn’t do much to help. If he did, how is netherum supposed to earn their time]

@captive-fire

[captive-fire]

[Netherum’s head smacks the pavement as they fall and they start bleeding from his head and his mouth. She tries to get up and run after her but stumbles and collapses again, their head injury making her dizzy and disorientated]

[creation-by-a-god]

“Seriously..?”

[He stares at him]

“Get up, i did not bring you out here so nothing netherum.”

[captive-fire]

[They let out a soft noise, trying to get up again but not even sitting up before she collapses again]

[creation-by-a-god]

“Pathetic. Why do i even bother”

[He rubs his forehead, as he waves his hand]

“You know what. Enderian. Why don’t you keep him since you two are so.. close..”

[He turns his back for a second before raising his hand slightly]

“I have business to deal with.”

[-and with that, he snaps his fingers. A sudden flash of unfamiliar gold before he disappears]

@gilded-thoughts

[gilded-thoughts]

[She takes just a second to process before she's back on the ground, helping Neth]

[captive-fire]

[Their head wound looks pretty bad, bleeding a lot, and she’d bitten his lip during the punch]

[He groans in pain, reaching out to Fable just as he disappears]

No… no no no no- come back-

[gilded-thoughts]

Neth, we have to go-

[captive-fire]

No…

[They start crying, sobbing, trying to pull himself to where Fable had been]

No- come back- take - take me back-

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian tries to drag them back]

This is our chance to leave, Neth-

[captive-fire]

NO NO I HAVE TO GO BACK - I HAVE TO!- COME BACK!!-

[She tries to fight her grip, not very strong due to years of bad treatment, not enough food]

[gilded-thoughts]

We can get them out- Perix is on the inside, she can help, we'll get them-

[captive-fire]

I NEED HER- I NEED HER- SHE NEEDS ME I ONLY JUST GOT HER BACK- COME BACK!!

[gilded-thoughts]

Neth.. we can get them all back-

[captive-fire]

[Neth just starts crying, pressing himself into Enderian]

S-sh-she- she’s alo-alone now-

[gilded-thoughts]

[She hugs them, trying to be comforting]

We'll get them out..

[captive-fire]

I- i promised i’d come back- i p-promised-

[gilded-thoughts]

We'll go back when I know how to get you all out-

[captive-fire]

[They slowly sink to their knees, crying into her hand]

…i’d rather suffer there with Soul than be free without her..

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian's silent for a while]

...Neth, I can't go back.

[captive-fire]

I know…

[gilded-thoughts]

I want them back, we just need to plan

[captive-fire]

[They only just seem to notice the blood still seeping from his head, looking at it covering their hand]

…that’s… not good..

[gilded-thoughts]

We need to get you to the hospital..

[gilded-thoughts]

Enderian. My sister. I think it’d finally time we’ve talked.. it’s been awhile.

Enderian. My sister. I think it’d finally time we’ve talked.. it’s been awhile.

@creation-by-a-god

...What the fuck do you want?

[creation-by-a-god]

I- do you not know how to read?

Ehem.. as i said. I think it’s time we talked. It’s been far too long. Meet me here at this address.

[gilded-thoughts]

Why should I?

[creation-by-a-god]

Do you not want to see netherum again? After so long?

Or maybe even..

Isla?

[gilded-thoughts]

...Fine.

[Enderian shows up at the address, hands in her pockets. She looks older from stress; white hairs growing from her jet-black hair, wrinkles etched into her skin]

[creation-by-a-god]

[Fable stood inbetween a set of trees. He looked the same except for age.. and the glowing golden eyes]

“Enderian! It’s wonderful that you could join me today.”

[the-mind-goddess]

[Her eyes narrowed]

It's not like I have much of a choice.

[creation-by-a-god]

[He just smirked]

“Cheer up sister! We have so much to catch up on! Do you not agree?”

[gilded-thoughts]

Sure. How's my son? My partner? Siblings?

[creation-by-a-god]

“Rae is doing wonderful actually. Isla. I’m unsure about.. but netherum. Why don’t you ask him yourself.”

[Fable would reach for a communication device]

“Bring them in.”

[Suddenly some men would drag netherum over. Fable throwing his arm out at them]

“Go on then. Ask him.”

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian quickly reaches out for them]

Neth-

[creation-by-a-god]

“Ah ah ah- not so quickly.”

[Fable raises his hand to enderian, before turning to netherum]

“Remember when you said, you’d do anything for me netherum?”

@captive-fire

[captive-fire]

[Neth looks… broken]

[They’re painfully skinny, face sunken and tired. Bruises and scars - some new and fresh, others older and fading- litter their skin. She’s grown a bit of a beard and their eyes slowly look up and widen seeing Enderian. They hold themselves back from running to her, trembling slightly]

Y-yes…

[creation-by-a-god]

“I want you to go get enderian for me. In return, you’ll get more time with soul, as what we agreed upon. Deal?”

[He stared at him with a serious look]

[captive-fire]

[She forces himself to meet his eye before turning to Enderian]

I…im sorry, ‘derian-

[They start walking toward her]

@gilded-thoughts

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian puts the pieces together and backs away from Netherum, glaring at Fable]

How dare you-

@creation-by-a-god

[creation-by-a-god]

“Look enderian. It really isn’t anything personal.. or well maybe a little. I just need you out of the way is all and best way to do that is to bring you back with me.”

[He shrugged his shoulders like it really wasn’t that big of a deal before turning to netherum]

“Oh and if you try anything-“

[He pulls out a small handheld button, his finger hovering over it]

“I’ll press this button, and soul will not enjoy what comes to her. Are we clear? You. Get enderian. I’ll give you time and won’t hurt soul.”

@captive-fire

[captive-fire]

[The blood drains from their face seeing the button and they turn back to Enderian, just frozen for a moment. Before he’s not]

[She lunges at Enderian, hoping to catch her off-guard, grabbing her arm]

@gilded-thoughts

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian yelps, being caught off guard but quickly regaining her strength. She tries to pull away]

[captive-fire]

[Their other hand comes up and tries to grab her other arm. He’s holding on desperately, pure panic in their eyes at what’s being held over his head]

[gilded-thoughts]

[She's caught and panics]

Neth- Neth please it's okay- we're gonna get you all out- me and- and Perix, we- we have plans please-

[Tears prick her cheeks. She looks nothing like the older sister they grew up with; the one separating fights, holding her feelings back, staying strong. This Enderian looked so... young]

[captive-fire]

I- I cant- i cant lose her again- i cant let her get hurt-

[Tears run down her cheeks as he tackles her to the ground with their whole weight. As he’s on top of her, her whispers]

Punch me, hit me- and run- go- get out- now-

[They quietly beg her, trying to disguise his words as noises of struggle]

[gilded-thoughts]

[She doesn't. She just takes Neth's face in her hands, looks for a moment, and hugs them. She doesn't know if it's for them or herself, but she does anyway]

[captive-fire]

[Neth freezes again before melting into it, crying into her shoulder]

…please- just run- go- go- you.. you need to go- run-

[gilded-thoughts]

You'll get hurt.. they all will if I don't come, won't they..?

[captive-fire]

Only if i let you go, not if you escape me - just hit me and run- punch me- hurt me so they dont hurt her-

[gilded-thoughts]

I'm not hurting you. I won't be like him.

[captive-fire]

Please- then you can get everyone out-

[They pretend to start fighting her grip, quite convincingly]

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian takes a breath and lets go from the hug, trying to break free]

[captive-fire]

[Neth grabs her again, the look in his eye telling her to swing at him]

[gilded-thoughts]

[She hesitates before punching them in the jaw, quickly scrambling back up on the pavement]

@creation-by-a-god

[creation-by-a-god]

[Fable just watches. He doesn’t do much to help. If he did, how is netherum supposed to earn their time]

@captive-fire

[captive-fire]

[Netherum’s head smacks the pavement as they fall and they start bleeding from his head and his mouth. She tries to get up and run after her but stumbles and collapses again, their head injury making her dizzy and disorientated]

[creation-by-a-god]

“Seriously..?”

[He stares at him]

“Get up, i did not bring you out here so nothing netherum.”

[captive-fire]

[They let out a soft noise, trying to get up again but not even sitting up before she collapses again]

[creation-by-a-god]

“Pathetic. Why do i even bother”

[He rubs his forehead, as he waves his hand]

“You know what. Enderian. Why don’t you keep him since you two are so.. close..”

[He turns his back for a second before raising his hand slightly]

“I have business to deal with.”

[-and with that, he snaps his fingers. A sudden flash of unfamiliar gold before he disappears]

@gilded-thoughts

[gilded-thoughts]

[She takes just a second to process before she's back on the ground, helping Neth]

[captive-fire]

[Their head wound looks pretty bad, bleeding a lot, and she’d bitten his lip during the punch]

[He groans in pain, reaching out to Fable just as he disappears]

No… no no no no- come back-

[gilded-thoughts]

Neth, we have to go-

[captive-fire]

No…

[They start crying, sobbing, trying to pull himself to where Fable had been]

No- come back- take - take me back-

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian tries to drag them back]

This is our chance to leave, Neth-

[captive-fire]

NO NO I HAVE TO GO BACK - I HAVE TO!- COME BACK!!-

[She tries to fight her grip, not very strong due to years of bad treatment, not enough food]

[gilded-thoughts]

We can get them out- Perix is on the inside, she can help, we'll get them-

[captive-fire]

I NEED HER- I NEED HER- SHE NEEDS ME I ONLY JUST GOT HER BACK- COME BACK!!

[gilded-thoughts]

Neth.. we can get them all back-

[captive-fire]

[Neth just starts crying, pressing himself into Enderian]

S-sh-she- she’s alo-alone now-

[gilded-thoughts]

[She hugs them, trying to be comforting]

We'll get them out..

[captive-fire]

I- i promised i’d come back- i p-promised-

[gilded-thoughts]

We'll go back when I know how to get you all out-

[gilded-thoughts]

Enderian. My sister. I think it’d finally time we’ve talked.. it’s been awhile.

@creation-by-a-god

...What the fuck do you want?

[creation-by-a-god]

I- do you not know how to read?

Ehem.. as i said. I think it’s time we talked. It’s been far too long. Meet me here at this address.

[gilded-thoughts]

Why should I?

[creation-by-a-god]

Do you not want to see netherum again? After so long?

Or maybe even..

Isla?

[gilded-thoughts]

...Fine.

[Enderian shows up at the address, hands in her pockets. She looks older from stress; white hairs growing from her jet-black hair, wrinkles etched into her skin]

[creation-by-a-god]

[Fable stood inbetween a set of trees. He looked the same except for age.. and the glowing golden eyes]

“Enderian! It’s wonderful that you could join me today.”

[the-mind-goddess]

[Her eyes narrowed]

It's not like I have much of a choice.

[creation-by-a-god]

[He just smirked]

“Cheer up sister! We have so much to catch up on! Do you not agree?”

[gilded-thoughts]

Sure. How's my son? My partner? Siblings?

[creation-by-a-god]

“Rae is doing wonderful actually. Isla. I’m unsure about.. but netherum. Why don’t you ask him yourself.”

[Fable would reach for a communication device]

“Bring them in.”

[Suddenly some men would drag netherum over. Fable throwing his arm out at them]

“Go on then. Ask him.”

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian quickly reaches out for them]

Neth-

[creation-by-a-god]

“Ah ah ah- not so quickly.”

[Fable raises his hand to enderian, before turning to netherum]

“Remember when you said, you’d do anything for me netherum?”

@captive-fire

[captive-fire]

[Neth looks… broken]

[They’re painfully skinny, face sunken and tired. Bruises and scars - some new and fresh, others older and fading- litter their skin. She’s grown a bit of a beard and their eyes slowly look up and widen seeing Enderian. They hold themselves back from running to her, trembling slightly]

Y-yes…

[creation-by-a-god]

“I want you to go get enderian for me. In return, you’ll get more time with soul, as what we agreed upon. Deal?”

[He stared at him with a serious look]

[captive-fire]

[She forces himself to meet his eye before turning to Enderian]

I…im sorry, ‘derian-

[They start walking toward her]

@gilded-thoughts

[They start crying, sobbing, trying to pull himself to where Fable had been]

No- come back- take - take me back-

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian tries to drag them back]

This is our chance to leave, Neth-

[captive-fire]

NO NO I HAVE TO GO BACK - I HAVE TO!- COME BACK!!-

[She tries to fight her grip, not very strong due to years of bad treatment, not enough food]

[gilded-thoughts]

We can get them out- Perix is on the inside, she can help, we'll get them-

[gilded-thoughts]

Enderian. My sister. I think it’d finally time we’ve talked.. it’s been awhile.

@creation-by-a-god

...What the fuck do you want?

[creation-by-a-god]

I- do you not know how to read?

Ehem.. as i said. I think it’s time we talked. It’s been far too long. Meet me here at this address.

[gilded-thoughts]

Why should I?

[creation-by-a-god]

Do you not want to see netherum again? After so long?

Or maybe even..

Isla?

[gilded-thoughts]

...Fine.

[Enderian shows up at the address, hands in her pockets. She looks older from stress; white hairs growing from her jet-black hair, wrinkles etched into her skin]

[creation-by-a-god]

[Fable stood inbetween a set of trees. He looked the same except for age.. and the glowing golden eyes]

“Enderian! It’s wonderful that you could join me today.”

[the-mind-goddess]

[Her eyes narrowed]

It's not like I have much of a choice.

[creation-by-a-god]

[He just smirked]

“Cheer up sister! We have so much to catch up on! Do you not agree?”

[gilded-thoughts]

Sure. How's my son? My partner? Siblings?

[creation-by-a-god]

“Rae is doing wonderful actually. Isla. I’m unsure about.. but netherum. Why don’t you ask him yourself.”

[Fable would reach for a communication device]

“Bring them in.”

[Suddenly some men would drag netherum over. Fable throwing his arm out at them]

“Go on then. Ask him.”

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian quickly reaches out for them]

Neth-

[creation-by-a-god]

“Ah ah ah- not so quickly.”

[Fable raises his hand to enderian, before turning to netherum]

“Remember when you said, you’d do anything for me netherum?”

@captive-fire

[captive-fire]

[Neth looks… broken]

[They’re painfully skinny, face sunken and tired. Bruises and scars - some new and fresh, others older and fading- litter their skin. She’s grown a bit of a beard and their eyes slowly look up and widen seeing Enderian. They hold themselves back from running to her, trembling slightly]

Y-yes…

[creation-by-a-god]

“I want you to go get enderian for me. In return, you’ll get more time with soul, as what we agreed upon. Deal?”

[He stared at him with a serious look]

[captive-fire]

[She forces himself to meet his eye before turning to Enderian]

I…im sorry, ‘derian-

[They start walking toward her]

@gilded-thoughts

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian puts the pieces together and backs away from Netherum, glaring at Fable]

How dare you-

@creation-by-a-god

[creation-by-a-god]

“Look enderian. It really isn’t anything personal.. or well maybe a little. I just need you out of the way is all and best way to do that is to bring you back with me.”

[He shrugged his shoulders like it really wasn’t that big of a deal before turning to netherum]

“Oh and if you try anything-“

[He pulls out a small handheld button, his finger hovering over it]

“I’ll press this button, and soul will not enjoy what comes to her. Are we clear? You. Get enderian. I’ll give you time and won’t hurt soul.”

@captive-fire

[captive-fire]

[The blood drains from their face seeing the button and they turn back to Enderian, just frozen for a moment. Before he’s not]

[She lunges at Enderian, hoping to catch her off-guard, grabbing her arm]

@gilded-thoughts

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian yelps, being caught off guard but quickly regaining her strength. She tries to pull away]

[captive-fire]

[Their other hand comes up and tries to grab her other arm. He’s holding on desperately, pure panic in their eyes at what’s being held over his head]

[gilded-thoughts]

[She's caught and panics]

Neth- Neth please it's okay- we're gonna get you all out- me and- and Perix, we- we have plans please-

[Tears prick her cheeks. She looks nothing like the older sister they grew up with; the one separating fights, holding her feelings back, staying strong. This Enderian looked so... young]

[captive-fire]

I- I cant- i cant lose her again- i cant let her get hurt-

[Tears run down her cheeks as he tackles her to the ground with their whole weight. As he’s on top of her, her whispers]

Punch me, hit me- and run- go- get out- now-

[They quietly beg her, trying to disguise his words as noises of struggle]

[gilded-thoughts]

[She doesn't. She just takes Neth's face in her hands, looks for a moment, and hugs them. She doesn't know if it's for them or herself, but she does anyway]

[captive-fire]

[Neth freezes again before melting into it, crying into her shoulder]

…please- just run- go- go- you.. you need to go- run-

[gilded-thoughts]

You'll get hurt.. they all will if I don't come, won't they..?

[captive-fire]

Only if i let you go, not if you escape me - just hit me and run- punch me- hurt me so they dont hurt her-

[gilded-thoughts]

I'm not hurting you. I won't be like him.

[captive-fire]

Please- then you can get everyone out-

[They pretend to start fighting her grip, quite convincingly]

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian takes a breath and lets go from the hug, trying to break free]

[captive-fire]

[Neth grabs her again, the look in his eye telling her to swing at him]

[gilded-thoughts]

[She hesitates before punching them in the jaw, quickly scrambling back up on the pavement]

@creation-by-a-god

[creation-by-a-god]

[Fable just watches. He doesn’t do much to help. If he did, how is netherum supposed to earn their time]

@captive-fire

[captive-fire]

[Netherum’s head smacks the pavement as they fall and they start bleeding from his head and his mouth. She tries to get up and run after her but stumbles and collapses again, their head injury making her dizzy and disorientated]

[creation-by-a-god]

“Seriously..?”

[He stares at him]

“Get up, i did not bring you out here so nothing netherum.”

[captive-fire]

[They let out a soft noise, trying to get up again but not even sitting up before she collapses again]

[creation-by-a-god]

“Pathetic. Why do i even bother”

[He rubs his forehead, as he waves his hand]

“You know what. Enderian. Why don’t you keep him since you two are so.. close..”

[He turns his back for a second before raising his hand slightly]

“I have business to deal with.”

[-and with that, he snaps his fingers. A sudden flash of unfamiliar gold before he disappears]

@gilded-thoughts

[gilded-thoughts]

[She takes just a second to process before she's back on the ground, helping Neth]

[captive-fire]

[Their head wound looks pretty bad, bleeding a lot, and she’d bitten his lip during the punch]

[He groans in pain, reaching out to Fable just as he disappears]

No… no no no no- come back-

[gilded-thoughts]

Neth, we have to go-

[captive-fire]

No…

[They start crying, sobbing, trying to pull himself to where Fable had been]

No- come back- take - take me back-

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian tries to drag them back]

[She takes just a second to process before she's back on the ground, helping Neth]

[gilded-thoughts]

Enderian. My sister. I think it’d finally time we’ve talked.. it’s been awhile.

@creation-by-a-god

...What the fuck do you want?

[creation-by-a-god]

I- do you not know how to read?

Ehem.. as i said. I think it’s time we talked. It’s been far too long. Meet me here at this address.

[gilded-thoughts]

Why should I?

[creation-by-a-god]

Do you not want to see netherum again? After so long?

Or maybe even..

Isla?

[gilded-thoughts]

...Fine.

[Enderian shows up at the address, hands in her pockets. She looks older from stress; white hairs growing from her jet-black hair, wrinkles etched into her skin]

[creation-by-a-god]

[Fable stood inbetween a set of trees. He looked the same except for age.. and the glowing golden eyes]

“Enderian! It’s wonderful that you could join me today.”

[the-mind-goddess]

[Her eyes narrowed]

It's not like I have much of a choice.

[creation-by-a-god]

[He just smirked]

“Cheer up sister! We have so much to catch up on! Do you not agree?”

[gilded-thoughts]

Sure. How's my son? My partner? Siblings?

[creation-by-a-god]

“Rae is doing wonderful actually. Isla. I’m unsure about.. but netherum. Why don’t you ask him yourself.”

[Fable would reach for a communication device]

“Bring them in.”

[Suddenly some men would drag netherum over. Fable throwing his arm out at them]

“Go on then. Ask him.”

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian quickly reaches out for them]

Neth-

[creation-by-a-god]

“Ah ah ah- not so quickly.”

[Fable raises his hand to enderian, before turning to netherum]

“Remember when you said, you’d do anything for me netherum?”

@captive-fire

[captive-fire]

[Neth looks… broken]

[They’re painfully skinny, face sunken and tired. Bruises and scars - some new and fresh, others older and fading- litter their skin. She’s grown a bit of a beard and their eyes slowly look up and widen seeing Enderian. They hold themselves back from running to her, trembling slightly]

Y-yes…

[creation-by-a-god]

“I want you to go get enderian for me. In return, you’ll get more time with soul, as what we agreed upon. Deal?”

[He stared at him with a serious look]

[captive-fire]

[She forces himself to meet his eye before turning to Enderian]

I…im sorry, ‘derian-

[They start walking toward her]

@gilded-thoughts

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian puts the pieces together and backs away from Netherum, glaring at Fable]

How dare you-

@creation-by-a-god

[creation-by-a-god]

“Look enderian. It really isn’t anything personal.. or well maybe a little. I just need you out of the way is all and best way to do that is to bring you back with me.”

[He shrugged his shoulders like it really wasn’t that big of a deal before turning to netherum]

“Oh and if you try anything-“

[He pulls out a small handheld button, his finger hovering over it]

“I’ll press this button, and soul will not enjoy what comes to her. Are we clear? You. Get enderian. I’ll give you time and won’t hurt soul.”

@captive-fire

[captive-fire]

[The blood drains from their face seeing the button and they turn back to Enderian, just frozen for a moment. Before he’s not]

[She lunges at Enderian, hoping to catch her off-guard, grabbing her arm]

@gilded-thoughts

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian yelps, being caught off guard but quickly regaining her strength. She tries to pull away]

[captive-fire]

[Their other hand comes up and tries to grab her other arm. He’s holding on desperately, pure panic in their eyes at what’s being held over his head]

[gilded-thoughts]

[She's caught and panics]

Neth- Neth please it's okay- we're gonna get you all out- me and- and Perix, we- we have plans please-

[Tears prick her cheeks. She looks nothing like the older sister they grew up with; the one separating fights, holding her feelings back, staying strong. This Enderian looked so... young]

[captive-fire]

I- I cant- i cant lose her again- i cant let her get hurt-

[Tears run down her cheeks as he tackles her to the ground with their whole weight. As he’s on top of her, her whispers]

Punch me, hit me- and run- go- get out- now-

[They quietly beg her, trying to disguise his words as noises of struggle]

[gilded-thoughts]

[She doesn't. She just takes Neth's face in her hands, looks for a moment, and hugs them. She doesn't know if it's for them or herself, but she does anyway]

[captive-fire]

[Neth freezes again before melting into it, crying into her shoulder]

…please- just run- go- go- you.. you need to go- run-

[gilded-thoughts]

You'll get hurt.. they all will if I don't come, won't they..?

[captive-fire]

Only if i let you go, not if you escape me - just hit me and run- punch me- hurt me so they dont hurt her-

[gilded-thoughts]

I'm not hurting you. I won't be like him.

[captive-fire]

Please- then you can get everyone out-

[They pretend to start fighting her grip, quite convincingly]

[gilded-thoughts]

[Enderian takes a breath and lets go from the hug, trying to break free]

[captive-fire]

[Neth grabs her again, the look in his eye telling her to swing at him]

[gilded-thoughts]

[She hesitates before punching them in the jaw, quickly scrambling back up on the pavement]
