Facing the Enemy (closed)

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She circles around Lyvaki and Lirr watching the two of them carefully listening to each of their words. She then raises her gaze controlled to Lyvaki.*

"She has done much worse than that before Lyvaki. You helped me become more like her. For that I am grateful, but I have done as promised. I have delivered her to your hands. However, I never said I would let you keep her...."

[Triune]

*Lyvaki whirls to glare at Kyra and sneers at her*

"Do you think I am not prepared to handle your betrayal, Monkey? Take her from here and that little genetic virus that's swirling through your bloodstream will not remain dormant and you'll suffer such a lingering painful death that you will beg to die... You're on a leash little ape... It's as long as the galaxy but when I yank on it you'll heel to me..."

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She chuckles as she walks closer to Lyvaki. The smile staying upon her face.*

"Did you think that I did not know of how you would play your end out? I heel to no man and no woman. You wouldn't be foolish enough to do such to me. You do not know who you are dealing with, slave."

[Triune]

*Lyvaki blinks for a moment at Kyra's words, Lirreka forgotten for the time being. She lashes out trying to slap Kyra across the face as she had with Lirreka.*

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*Her reflexes are lightning quick as she grabs the hand of Lyvaki before it hits her and she twists it until a pop is heard. Kyra then twists the arm behind Lyvaki's back and pushes her down towards the floor.*

"You will listen to me Lyvaki or I will cause you so much pain you will beg for a swift death. Do I make myself clear?"

[Triune]

*Try as she might Lyvaki cannot get free, she struggles and hurls obsenities at Kyra but as the arm twists tears fall as she ceases her ranting. A whine escapes her throat as she nods giving in to Kyra's demand.*

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She looks down at the woman with disgust.* "Ah, I see how you are...all talk and no muscle behind your words. Pathetic."

*She leans down closer to Lyvaki's ear and twists the arm up higher on her back to where her elbow is bent and Kyra's knee is pressed into her lower back. Her voice comes out very soothingly and seductive though laced to the core with tensity.* "Now, tell me how you were planning on keeping me on a leash with this virus. What is it you have done to me? Hmm?"

*Her lips brush against the wet cheek of the woman as she presses her knee harder into her back.*

[Triune]

*Lyvaki's tears hit the floor as she trembles in pain, the muscles in her shoulder tearing. She manages to speak after a moment.*

"The virus... it is an organelle. It responds to a transmission signal once a day. As long as it receives this input it remains dormant. Failure to receive the signal triggers it to start growing."

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She pulls harder and popping is heard in her lower back as the pressure there increases as well. Kyra's hand goes for her serrated sword as she grabs the woman's head by the tails in the other hand pointing the blade to her neck.*

"This transmission....where does it come from?"

[Triune]

*She points to an old transmitter on her dressing table totally unable to speak from the sharp pain that wracks her body.*

*Lirreka in the meantime has remained trapped in the chair though she could have easily slipped the bonds many times over. No she watches this with interest.*

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She looks back at the transmitter and uses the Force to pull it towards her and pulls her blade away long enough to grab the transmitter and returns the blade to the woman's neck.*

"Tell me more about this transmission. Quickly...my patience is wearing thin."

[Triune]

*Babbling answers, the frequency the time of day, even the dial code needed to activate the transmitter all tumble from her lips She's a scuttling spinless thing eager to save her own hide.*


*A chuckle flows from Lirreka's lips as she grows tired and easily slips free.*

"There you see Kyra, that is what the Danthiri once was as a people, a spineless plotter that hid from the light of challenge and force."

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She forces the woman to repeat the information again and keeps her down on the ground with the blade at her neck.*

"Why did you spare her life, Lirreka? You knew she would create problems for you later. You should have killed her ages ago."

*She feels her lips grow ice cold again but ignores it pursing her lips together to heat them.*

[Triune]

*Long languid steps brings Lirreka closer to Kyra, she reaches out to put a gentle hand on her shoulder*

"Because even the spineless fool that kneels before you has use. I do not kill unless I have no other choice. It seems odd to me that I a stranger to this galaxy is one of the rare people that does not kill out of hand... I admit her usefulness is at its end but until this time she has provided an occasonal thorn in my side which has kept me 'growing. The organelles are working on you, I can see them in you now..."

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She throws the woman to the ground with disgust and sheathes her blade. She puts the transmitter in her pocket and turns to look at Lirreka*

"What are you talking about?"
