That behind Masquerade

[Seirra Darque]

*Even as Viea looks around the room a sound of a silenced gunshot reaches her ear as an electro-net is fired at her.*

[#@rand#=3.7612680625739543%@]

*AND promptly misses the Dark Lord. The sound of the gun being reloaded reaches Viea's ears as she no doubt spins around to see.....

.....An Adult Nikita wearing a black form-fitting bodyglove! She smirks at Viea.*

"Well hello Mother, I bet you're certainly surprised." She brings up the net gun once more.

[Amara..Valk..Dark one]

Adena's eyes widen at the figure before her, instantly her sences flare to life, as she clentches at her plasma torch, looking at her Daughter, the same daughter who was killed almost 2 years ago! The Dark Lordess knew something was not right, but her emotions swelled, muteing rational thought for a moment " Ni,,Nikita?" she stammers, taking a defensive stap back. the last fight she had with Nikita in the Keeps Docking bay saw Nikita send Adena flying THROUGH a duro steel wall, and into the main hall, where it was Lirreka who managed to chase the Crimson haired Warrior woman off. " no, this is not right, she created you, your not really you" the matron hisses, still batteling the numb feeling in her gut.

[Seirra Darque]

*Nikita grins wickedly, a mirror of Viea's own grin at times.*

"Oh come on Mother, how many times have you faked your own death? It's amazing what a Fleshcrafter the calibre of Sable can achieve when she has the time, corpses, skins, you name it. But what am I saying? You're going to see first hand." She fires the netgun again.

Adena should have seen the shot coming, but was over whelmed with the image of her daughter, alive. with the final screams of warning the Dark Lordess moves quickly, thrusting off her heeled boots into a back spring, hoping to spring off the wall, and out of the way to a safer distance, though not quickly enough, the netting, heavily electrified glances the ancient force users left calf, sending a surge through its nerve receptors and blowing the servos. the moment Adena's feet touched onto the wall her leg failed, not responding to neural command, and sends the Huntress crashing to the floor.

*Nikita smirks and drops the netgun and pulls her double saber from over her back. Igniting them brings a laugh from her*

"Awww did mommy fall down and go boom? I always told you that leg would be the death of you old woman. Time for a new Dark Lord to take the reins, a younger one, one more capable of leading this rabble you call Sith." She approaches the fallen Viea "Get up and at least show enough dignity not to die face down like the spineless woman you are.." Her words are cold, heartless and harsh as she spins the saber around with skill much like Viea remembers.

[Amara..Valk..Dark one]

Adena looks up with hooded eyes and a toothed snarl as she pushes herself to her knees, , bringing the top of her hand to her busted lip, tasteing the coppery liquid beeding up, her anger swelling, the last time she fought, nikita in all rights would have killed her, however, Adena thought, that was not Sith to Sith.
" you always were a obsessive woman Niki, just like your Father, you don't know when to stay dead!"

[Seirra Darque]

*The red-bladed doublesaber blurs as Nikita moves it into attack speed, she feints for Viea's weak side then attemps to drive home a shot to the other side*

[#@rand#=1.7131670636836898%@]

[Amara..Valk..Dark one]

still suffering from a slight case of shell shock, Adena would have lunged like a starved dire wolf at her daughter, however she was not thinking, fuled by her own desire to discover what is going on, rather than make a killing blow, the Dark Lordess grabs for the mid bridge of the sabers shaft in the attempt to roll the Chrimson trussed woman over her.
[#@rand#=5.69834006380651%@] -3 =9 ( due to a disabled leg, and down on her knees

[Seirra Darque]

*Nikita manages to keep from going over and instead twists the saber and thus their arms as she tries to lock it against Viea's throat and strangle her to death.*

[#@rand#=1.4406983877364956%@]

[Amara..Valk..Dark one]

Again unable adena knew she could not get to her feet, so in responce she brings everything to her movement as she could, reaching out to grab Niki's forearm, and bring her down into a arm bar, if not to break the others arm all together
[#@rand#=14.328575574985922%@]

[Seirra Darque]

*Niki's arm snaps and it only brings a gleam of predator to her eye, no cry of pain not even a wince as she disconnects the saber and tries to strike at Viea with it in her good hand.*

"IS that the best you can do Mommy? Breakign your little girls arm? How pathetic! Lirreka was a better mother to me and she loathed me!"

[#@rand#=12.244024353419734%@]

[Amara..Valk..Dark one]

Adena feels her jaw crack, and a weaight decend on her head as the fists connects, , though she did not wence however a sound did indeed seem ro roll about the room like that of a gathering storm, cascading about them, the Dark lordesses eyes flashing instantly to a deep emerald as she reaches out, collecting the air about her, moving the particals rapidly, charging the ions..placing her hand firmly on Nikitas chest and attempting to relase the charge as a direct solid bolt straight into the heart

[Amara..Valk..Dark one]

Critical check [#@rand#=16.88427515475733%@]

[Seirra Darque]

*The girl screams as the ionic energies pour into her flesh, and in an instant Niki lies dead in Viea's arms, for a brief instant. With a flash of darkness the body vanishes as does the majority of Viea's wounds. A thick black nimbus of energy flows from where the body was and into Viea's flesh. It gnaws and rakes at what little humanity, what little goodness that remained in her tearing at it.*

[Amara..Valk..Dark one]

Adena seems to convulse slight;y, almost as if reacting to a burning itch she cannot reach, running her fingers through her hair, and pulling as she cries while the remaining adriniline winds down,,,what the hell was sables game now, useing Nikita like that, did it really matter?, no, no it did not, what mattered is she was bing played; the Empress thought, and this game would end soon enough. " YOUR LIFE IS MINE!" she bellows, her eyes shifting yet again, taking on a nearly crimson hue as something deep inside her stirs..

* Adena gained 2 DS points*
