Drama? Renna had always had a sense of plotting about her, deception -betrayl - killings, it was everything she was created to do. Not Lucy, she was created for the sole purpose of well... Being stronger than Renna, to be a weapon to absorb the powers out from Brian and into her own form. Perhaps thats what she had always been destined to do, to be alone?
Her talk with her Father as of late had sent her back to her room at the Abbey crying for hours upon end. She had perfect control of her powers and even though if they were developing too fast! Still! Why didn't they trust Lucy? Cautiously they moved about like a chained tiger in the zoo, admired and looked after, only from afar.

But Alex, the so-called-Uncle was the first to come under her blind rage. The detemrination of Darkin supurring her to go to his abode - of which Arumu showed her, and went off to kill him.

All Ravenlocks were bad news.

And, perhaps somewhere in her mind Lucy Ravenlock despised the name she was given. But then in a way it suited her perfectly. She had a family - a fueding fucked up family, but a family nonetheless!
Alex had managed to reveal something of his powers to Lucy and Arumu, and that would go noticed and noted, but Lucy was far too deep in her grief over the arguement with Brian that plotting was the last thing on her mind...

"Mistress..." Mu stated as the twins held eachother in their embrace, cheeks together, heads turned right at the crying form upon the bed.

"Do not cry... Alex will look after you. He promised."

"Promised..."

Lucy's eyes red and stingy opened half way to stare down at her own two hands, would she accept the fact that Brian was afraid of her becoming the next Renna, and go down that path? He always so damned feared she would, so... Why shouldn't she?

She had no reason not to anymore.

But then, the child that eas Lucy still loved him and through all the mixed up feelings inside of her head. She damned well think it over first.

But perhaps that has already transpired. She had to get out of here. She had to hide.

"Brian will kill you, before he lets your-"

"Powers grow stronger. More out of control-"

"Mistress, what is it you want to do?

"To do?"

"I am afraid... So afraid..." Arms wrapping around her bent knees, she hugged them close to her body and began to rock. "... Alex... Is right. All of them are bad. Alex has done nothing wrong to me. Father... Is confusing. Mother, is gone. Antie Jewell... I don't see her."

"Mistress we must think of something-"

"We cannot allow you to come to harm-"

"Or sadness-"

"Yes, sadness."

What to do?

What am I to do?

Tell me... What what?!

Your powers are strong. Fierce. Destructive. All that power yet no direction.

Then... Then...

Eyes closed, she pushed herself to the edge of the bed... And began to dress herself. Velvet jacket over sailor fuku. Velvet and laced choker from Brian, golden necklace from Li Li, short sword strapped around her waist then with a heavy sigh she unsheathed the sword.

Turning to the door.

"I'll accept it."

The dorms that morning were silent. A peacefull sunlight with high tempertures, a nice warm day in Rhy'Din, at the Abbey. The grass's morning droplets were evaporated as soon as the sun's bareing heat touched them. Light, present everywhere.

Actions had taken her this far.

The dorm's wood was a shade of black that no fungus ever possessed, it was like the sunlight was being absorbed into the wood itself, leaving a strange and odd shadow that - even at the most brightest places such as the roof, turned darker, and darker.

The children did not stand a chance as they slept for Lucy herself had began to slaughter them as they dreamt.

Sword, jammed down into their throats - cutting off air to the vocal chords, preventing their screaming but not their slow minute's writhing before they bled to death in such a horrible, and slow manner. Darkin's pressense... Was gone. Renna, gone.
There was only Lucy, the most strongest pressense in the whole area, a dark pressense with a misguided loneliless and power that when Renna first started out, she had. But Lucy was not Renna, Renna was a psychotic bitch who - for whatever reason did not love. Lucy did, and still does - she just thinks no one ever returns - all of them bad, bad people. Maybe all except Alex.

Sword in, sword out, blood too.

Repeating... Almost like clockwork. Perfect motion. Perfect aim eachtime.

Every body that fell to her sword was injected with the same power the Priestesses had and... As time went on the bodies of the children bubbled - their skin blistering, their forms writhing and standing - bleeding from every orifice in their face a black, gunk.

In the common room she sat playing the piano calmly... Hair hanging down her bloodied face, smeering blood all over the once clean white keys. Droplets of the scarlet liquid dripping down her face to drip from the end of her nose, chin, and lips. The beastily snarls and mutations behind her was almost soothing, it was like as if finally the children which feared her had finally accepted to what she was.

Their Mistress.

Her friends forever...

"The transformations are complete." Aru and Mu stated together as usual taking point on either side of Lucy as she sat playing.

"Then... They are my friends?" Lucy's playing of Phantom of the Opera slowed to a stop, playing the song, 'The Point of No Return" once again. It was fitting for this situation and now... There was no going back now.

Brian would not forgive. He will kill you. Or, he might even just leave you be. For you, it's all good.

Darkin urged.

"We are your friends." A chorus of voices echoed out ghostly behind her. Standing, keycover closing the bloodied face of Lucy turned upon the common room full of Black Monks and smiled with teras dripping down her cheeks.

"Let's go... Home..." Lucy whispered, eyes glancing up sternly to Arumu as she gave her first command. "Take us to the Den..."

They did leave.

And what of the dorm?

It simply imploded.

As he made his way down the stairs from checking on the girl he and Des had assisted the previous night, Brian ran into her. Her monks surrounding her at the piano, as they spoke.

Brian had to smile as he noted her reactions, she was everything her mother said she was and more. But in truth it was a lost cause, as the child was hardly a child and her powers were taking over.

A mental game of chess had begun to see where her heart lay in regards to whatever became of her, Brian or even Renna. Granted Brian knew full well he told Ren he was done with this, he had to see for himself.

The girl hardly disappointed, she played each move as brilliantly as the last, and even as Brian took the conversation to her friends, Jewell and even Alex in an attempt to upset her balance, she held steady.

Brian smile faintly as he left her in the Inn, and resigned himself to whatever was to come. He was not having any of it, and would not step in. He prayed Charlotte also felt the same. Sides, he knew the Abbey maidens would hardly sit back and let this slide in any event. They would soon come for the girl, and Brian still needed to talk with Mother in regards to the sealing.

Off he went towards Abbey, but first it was time for a piece of cake. So a course change was complete and he headed off towards the cake shoppe. Then again, cake with Charlotte would be divine. So course change again, first Charlotte then cake.
