Guardians (RP thread)

"I honestly don't know, but I can sure as hell try" Eli replied, "I knew this had to be a damn trap, but I still did shit"

Lei focused a bit and tried to control the water in the air. He managed to gather a little bit and controlled it at the cuffs but it did nothing. "If we get back to the house Ajax might know how to get them off."

"I might be able to get you free... If I do run as quickly as you can back to the house, directly the same direction I entered the clearing from." Eli puts his wrist next to Lei's and make the crystal start to get away from Lei, before it reforms Eli puts his own wrist in the place of Lei's, "Pull your wrist away and run now"

[It's only on Eli's wrists, Lei is completely free]

(That's what I thought at first but then the way you talked confused me lol either way the running part is there, get your character outta there lol)

"You can run too." Lei said. "We both need to go."

"I'm pretty sure there's tracking in these cuffs, as soon as I move she'll be back, so I have to stay behind Lei" Eli replied

"You don't know that for certain." Lei said

Quinn made it back to the house. "Ajax!?"

"Your sister just arrived back at the house" Eli said. "And you're right, I don't know, but I don't want to risk that. Just go back, I'll follow in 5 minutes. Don't stop for any reason until you're inside the house."

"But I don't know the way back." Lei said.

"I told you it's in the exact direction I entered the clearing from, run straight in that direction and you will make it back." Eli replied

"Okay." Lei started running in that direction.

Eli was alone in the clearing, so far no sign of the girl coming back. The crystal started to pierce his skin.

Eli used his abilities to keep the crystal from hurting him, "At least I can do this much..."

Eli's skin became covered with obsidian armor

Lei kept running when the girl reappeared again and grabbed his arm, stopping him. She pulled him back towards her, driving a small shard into his side/back just under his arm. "Tell your leader that if he wants the Hell guardian freed he'll have to come get him himself." She pulled away and disappeared again as quickly as she had appeared.

Eli felt the reappearance of the girl, "Shit..." Eli starts to run after Lei

The cuffs started to release smoke around Eli. The girl appeared just a few feet away from him.

"You..." Eli's eyes narrow looking at the girl

"Time to go." She said. The smoke surrounded both of them until they could no longer see the forest. When it cleared, they were inside stone walls

"So what's your goal? It's obvious you're unlike previous enemies we've faced. And you are stronger than the demons I've encountered as well, and I've encountered quite a few in hell." Eli asked

"I would imagine there'd be many demons in Hell." Was the only thing she replied, her tone and expression as flat and unreadable as always

Lei leaned a bit against a tree for a moment then mustering up some strength he continued running back towards the house.

Eli laughed a little, "Yes there are. So what's your story? Can I at least get a name?"

"My name is Yashvi." She replied. "This stone cell is underground with no windows or doors, just a hole for air in the ceiling." she nodded to the small hole leading up to the surface. "The only way in or out is to teleport. You will be staying here until my work is done."

"Yashvi huh? Well you haven't asked but I'll tell you anyway, my name is Eli." Eli looks at Yashvi curiously, "So what exactly is your work? And how long will that take? Cause I'm pretty sure I know some people that won't be happy that I'm gone."
