It's dark, desu...! W-why is it so dark? Where am I? [kicks frantically and the sound of metal echoes around her. she's definitely not in her forest any longer, and can feel the plants slowly beginning to die without her presence, which only makes her pounding and screaming more frantic] L-let me out, desu...! Let me...l-let me out...! Let me out

[seemingly floating in the air, hands behind his head, just looking...amused]

Get yourself into some trouble, did you?

[dritte_tochter]

[eeps, then tries to hit him] W-w-what do you think you're doing, desu? Get me out!

[firebranded]

[she hits nothing but air /o/ pops up behind her] I'm doing what I'm thinking. And why should I?

[dritte_tochter]

That doesn't make any sense, desu! [turns around to face him, bumping her head in the process and wincing] A-and because you're my knight, desu! You have to do what I say!

[firebranded]

[sniggers, the sound somehow...meaner than it usually is, tail flicking back and forth] Do I look like a knight to you?

[dritte_tochter]

[glares, noting the tail uncertainly] You look like a stupid Matchstick, just like always, desu! But...but you can get in here and...and you know where I am, so...!

[firebranded]

[tsks] Seems you've got me confused with some other "Matchstick." I'm not much inclined to help anyone who can help themselves. [pretending to be the other Axel? no way to tell them apart anyway /o/]

[dritte_tochter]

What...? [frowns, trying to get a better look at him, but it's dark and maybe she was mistaken and really, she just wants to go back to her forest before everything dies and her own life begins to ebb] B-but...! I don't...I don't know how to get out, desu...! I don't know where I am but you...you found me, so...!

[firebranded]

There's always a way out of a place. If you can't figure it out then you deserve to be stuck where you are, don't you?

[dritte_tochter]

I...! [awww, she's really upset, Axel, so much so she doesn't have a snarky comeback for you] B-but...!

[firebranded]

[is acting rather...evil, looking almost bored with her suffering] You say you have woods you need to protect. So do I. But you don't see me getting caught by some idiot.

[dritte_tochter]

[and now she's angry] I didn't get caught because I wanted to, desu! He cheated! [tries to hit him again] My forest...it's dying! I can't...I can't stay here, desu! He locked me away and I can't...I...!

[firebranded]

[once again disappears and reappears, amused] Why don't you use all that energy of yours to get yourself out? Oh wait, I forgot. You have people coming to save you. How fortunate for you.

[dritte_tochter]

I-I tried to get out, desu! I can't! And...a-and at least they care, desu! You...you're just a horrible, horrible person...! I hate you!

[firebranded]

That just means you're a failure, doesn't it? I've seen humans smarter than you.

[smiles~] Now what makes you think I'm a person?

[dritte_tochter]

[and now she's devastated] I'm not...I-I'm not a failure, desu! I'm not...h-humans aren't better than me! All they do is destroy and torture and kill my trees, desu...! They aren't...they aren't better than me!

[she's crying now, thanks] You aren't a person, desu...y-you're just horrible...!
