[Keiko gets to the west dome, to find the hostages split into two large cells, bots and Hotarus guarding them. Some distance away, Cyra is watching the cameras. Eileen is nearby, holding onto Haruko.] [Cyra doesn't look too happy. She says to Eileen, "If they don't kill him in two minutes, she's all yours"] * Keiko appears in the midst of Cyra, Eileen, and her mother in a ghostly form, blue dress, bare feet, silver collar, and flowing black hair. She intones, "You do realize there is nothing I can do, yes?" [They looks a little surprised, but only for a second. "Knew you'd show up," Cyra says. "I've read your file. I know everything you can do."] * Keiko replies, again, "There is nothing I can do. The chemicals you have killed us with make your hostages worthless." [Eileen grins. "So you don't mind if I start carving." In an instant, she pulls out a knife and brings it up to Haruko's eye. She doesn't look like she's going to stop, but Cyra says, "Eileen, wait."] * Keiko looks over to her mother, then to Eileen, then back to Cyra. She shivers a bit in the air, then says, "If you know everything... you know I can't stop them." My opinion is nothing. My powers cannot touch them. * Keiko 's lip curls in a weak smile. "And... they all hate her." [Cyra shrugs. "Then I guess they're going to die." She glances at the monitors.] * Keiko looks at the monitors too. "Then why act like they care? Been taking lessons in pain from Eileen?" Her death won't even slow them. * Keiko presses her lips together. "And if you know Rose and Heinrick like you say, no hostage will do what you need." [Cyra ignores Keiko, starting at the monitors. "They're moving. They didn't kill Jung." Then several of the monitors, the ones around the PCs, go blank.] * Keiko replies quietly, "Of course they didn't. They don't care. Don't you get it? The guardians are the monsters you and Blitzkreig wanted them to be." All the effort you put into the hostages was just... you deciding who to murder first. [Cyra looks at Keiko. "And what? You think I'm kind and generous? I've got a mission to do, Tadashi. I won't let anyone stand in my way."] [She turns to Eileen. "Kill the hostages. They had their chance. Meet me when its done. You know where." She heads towards a door opposite of the way Keiko entered.] * Keiko replies, more quickly, annoyed, "It's Keiko, Cyra." She looks to Eileen and then says quickly, "I'm telling you... it doesn't get you anything. Eileen could be holding them off right now." [Cyra heads out the door without looking back.] [Eileen grins. "I could. But I'd rather be doing this." She plunges the dagger into Haruko's eye.] * Keiko frowns, then turns to Eileen. "Eileen... this won't get you what you--" she flinches visibly. * Keiko 's emotional bulwark breaks and she screams back at her, "You want me, Eileen, I know it!" [Eileen grins as she carves out the eye. "You're right. I want you." The eye pops out with a sickening squelch. "To suffer." She stomps on it.] * Keiko trembles and replies, lowly, floating in front of Eileen's face, "Don't... haven't you thought about... how I've seen your mind? How you've... thought about me?" How you've...felt? [She cuts off a finger. "Not really."] * Keiko 's teeth grit a moment, then she says, lowly, "I have. I've seen what you want to do to me, Eileen. I've felt it." [Some of the other hostages are making panicked noises.] [Eileen grins. "You're right. And I will. But for now, watching you suffer like this is fun too." She does more nasty things. I'm not going into detail.] * Keiko tries to dominate her vision, anyway, adding, "All--all you would have to do is keep me... and you could torture me forever with just your thoughts... " * Keiko is shaking as she keeps talking, not looking towards her mother. "Don't you want to try something... new?" (If I have to make the seduction (female) roll, I will.) ( Go for it. ) (Ugh. Unless there was a bonus for what I was doing, I miss my soul by 4.) [Eileen shrugs as she continues to work. "Not really."] * Keiko closes her eyes. "I thought you were an artist... of sorts." ["Maybe you just don't understand my work."] * Keiko reopens her eyes and snaps, "How could an artist turn this down? A mind... twisting in agony... at the whims of thought...forever?" [Eileen sighs. "Poor, poor, Keiko." She drops Haruko's lifeless body to the ground. "Nothing lasts forever." Then she turns, heading towards the cells.] * Keiko looks down to her mother's dead body, shuddering, and then sinking down over it, a ghostly shade resting atop it as she shudders. (Also, how long does it take them to catch up? Aiyah.) [Sure enough, more screams start shortly.] * Keiko 's head snaps up, and she lets out a growl before she flies into that room, ghostly tears still falling as she tries to telekinetically stop Eileen's knife. (Grapple?) ( Go ahead. ) (Make by 6.) [Keiko stops Eileen's knife. Eileen rolls her eyes, then extends her other arm. And it extends some distance. It pierces right through the chest of a man.] [End in here too]
