She rolled her eyes and stretched out. "Oh hush. I had no choice but to come around." She stood up and looked down at him. "I must say I enjoyed those times once I learned to love you."
"How fortunate I was" said Tig'lath, "I had only lust in mind when i took you but you have turned out to be the only one I could ever trust. I am thankful for you. It was fate that we came across each other. It gets lonely as a Warlord. You can trust no one and always have somebody wanting to take over and you had nothing but love for me. This is why I cater to you. I run the risk of being seen as weak ,showing you such favor but I would kill anyone who would challenge my power and I have for you and, i always will." Tig'lath said holding Jez close to him, appreciating her sincerity and affection.

Jez laughed and pushed him away playfully. "Yeah... If they found out you were such a teddy bear then you might have a bit of competition." She smiled and started walking through the field.
"we arnt gonna walk out of here" he then closed his eyes and all of them began to glow, after a few seconds they vanished and appeared outside of the collapsing temple. Screams could be heard from the followers inside but Pierce's distinct voice could not be heard.
Xania gasped. She had never been teleported anywhere. She held her head as she tried to get her barrings and make everything stop spinning. "Great." She mumbled feeling really out of place now. She was definitely the weakest and most vulnerable.
Tig'lath,fallowing Jez met up with her "So Jez how do we go about taking down Pierce? You have always givin good advice to me on many tough situations and I am not sure how to approach this one" Tig'lath said at a loss for what to do next. He continued "If we dot find a way to match this Cosmic beings Power All our efforts will be lost"

Zatri stumbled to his feets and looked at the temple a part of him felt sorry for the trapped worshippers inside, but another part of him told him to harden his heart and accept the fact that they deserved this fate, they worshipped a being of destruction and death and they deserved nothing but to try how it was to experience it, Zatri turned away from the temple and closed his ears, some would survive and hopefully they would emerge wiser then before, ore more determined on regaining revence for their loss.
Zatri looked at Tsecti.
"What happened to Pierce? I didn't see the end of the battle."
Maiden rubbed her eyes and glanced around at everyone. "Ok. Now that we're out I have to say, I QUIT BEING THE LEADER! Dear God I almost got us sacrificed! You!" She pointed to Xania. "You lead them. I wont have any more of it."
Jez smiled and put her arm around him. "Dont worry love. He has nothing better to do. I'll think of something when we get there. But anyways.. What are we going to do about the Council?"
Tig'lath had no concern with the Council. "Let them come" He said with a growl "They are no match for My Battle hardened Sydau'ka Elite(Yakats mounted on Kren that are wingless dragon like creatures that eat the enemy in combat),and Yakat Infantry that have been with me from the beginning.We have grown large in your absence My Love. Over 25,000 strong. Human Crossbowmen, Sheikzu(12'tall Orc like creatures) Xian(Catlike people who fight ferociously as a Tiger would) Not to mention for everyone of them we kill you can raise to fight for us." He finished, smiling at Jez. "So we will fight them and Decimate their Army in quick order. No worries my Dear. I have had the Humans working on a large version of their Crossbows. We have 1,200 of this thus far that shoot bolts as large as a spear. There is not a standing Army in our world that can Defeat us. Our only real concern is the Cosmic creature. He will pose a threat." Tig'lath, held his arm around Jezebel as they walked. Hoping he had instilled some confidence in her.

Jez nodded and looked up at happily. "I'm glad your so confident. I will stand beside you till the end." In the back of her mind she had a fear that he was relying too much on her... If something were to happen to her, she wouldnt be able to raise the dead for him. She forced a smile though, trying to keep him happy.
"Okay, number one, you were voted into leadership, so at your resignation, everyone must vote another leader. Number two electing me would be the stupidest move ever. I am the weakest one here, if you have not noticed." All this was said with a cool tone that sounding nothing like the Xania from the beginning of the journey.
She growled and sneered at Maiden. Was this female trying to be funny? Hopefully not. If she was making jokes, Xania would leave everyone to their own devices.
Maiden's eye twitched and for a moment she just looked at the weird Suarian chick. "Who are you and what have you done with that puss from before?..." She sighed heavily and looked over at Kiryu. "Hold me back, because this ***** IS GONNA DIE!" She sneered and took a step towards Xania.
Xania had raised at Maiden. If the human attacked, Xania would be no contest. She had no weapons or powers. All she had was brute strength thinks to her Saurian hritage. "I am just being logical. The one who was not brought up a strategizer or fighter and you want to put me in the Leadership position? I think Kiryu here would do better"
She turned to Tsecti. "There is nothing up with me. I have just been contemplation on my place in this group. I do not fit the part. Makes me a little edgy."
"Weakest? Hun you're everything but the weakest! You have strength that not even I could match. Hello! Claws! I have nothing. I make plants grow for goodness sakes! I cant even beat Kiryu in a game of ball, more or less pin Tsecti's tail down! You are just as helpful as the rest of us, and if you dont realize it then I'll slap you until you see the light. And if you dont see it after that, then I'll kill you, skin you, make you into a sexy pair of leather pants, and bring you back to life. And if you dont see it after that, then I'll kill you again and keep going until I have a complete outfit! So see it my way baby and save me the trouble cuz I'll be damn and rolled mystery mud before I move on with someone who doesnt have the self confidence to even flirt with her own kind." She pointed to Tsecti. "You... My fine friend.. Work your magic on her and make her the way she was because she's pissing me off more now then she was at the hotel." She then crossed her arms and sat down to wait.
"Look, it's whatever. The group should decide. I can tell you there is a small town just a few miles from here. It's a scoundrel's town though." She said looking at Maiden. "Despite it's reputation, it is a good place to regroup and for all of us to figure out where to go from there."
