(I NEED TO POST SOMETHING I CANNOT WAIT OR THIS WILL LEAVE MY BRAIN)
Misty struggles against the shadow chains, her breath the only sound in the whole temple. She looks back at the painting on the walls, she finally notices a throne with a snake sitting on it, looking down on the deformed animal-humans. Misty hears footsteps and stiffens, Maru peers down on the vulnerable Misty, "I finally have you" he whispers he walks around the altar shes chained to, "and all at the cost of this" he raises his bloody hand that Grant bit. He smiles and brushes her chin with his fingertips, "the lone she-wolf might be powerful, but the sly snake always strikes first." He smirks "I can finally become enlightened because of you Misty" He motions to the painting on the wall "When poison meets ice a toxic element is created, and he shall be crowned king of the high at the cost of melting the ice." Maru laughs "I will finally get back home" He picks up a dagger on the stone table near her head. "I just need your ice Misty." Misty starts to panic frustration contorts Maru's face, "stop moving!" He yells, he grabs her throat and descends the dagger to her hand "I just need your.... BLOOD" Maru hisses and flicks his snake tongue, his body begins to transform partially into his snake form. Scales creep across his skin, his fingernails grow into claws, his teeth sharpen into fangs and a tail drags across the floor. He slowly cuts Misty's arm, blood pooling fast, Misty tastes bile on her tongue, as the knife enters deeper into her arm, Misty yells out in fear and pain. Suddenly a golden light fills the whole temple, knocking back Maru and filling Misty with warmth even though the searing pain in her arm is unbearable she squints against the incredibly bright light. seeing a silhouette of a man in the light, she immediately understands what it is.
