Forsynthia was walking along the stone halls, right hand scraping quietly across the rock as the left held the flashlight, arcing its beam out in front of her so she could see.
There was light down here, but not much. She could have gone without the mini flashlight, but she had it, and it wasn't hard to use, so why not?
The white dragon knew that there was a rule against students coming down here. But why? It was a loose rule, anyway, it seemed. Not like there was security at the doors or anything.

Besides, she'd heard something about a soundproof room. Gave her a place she might be able to conduct...things. Sometimes. Obviously it'd be difficult to get them down here unless they were awake and obedient. Not passed out and bloody, with cuts on them, or drugged, or even scared and obedient.
No, the only way she'd ever get anyone down here to do anything to them was if she and them had the guise of friendship, to all appearances. That usually took too long. Maybe Verdy eventually, though she was pretty settled on not killing him.

She shrugged and sighed, digging her claws in a bit and watching the screech make shallow marks. She quit after a few seconds, continuing on her way with the right hand in her pocket now.

There was a soundproof room, but it was right across from the ancient dungeon where a certain creature was still hiding and recovering from being forced into a physical change. Only recently shi had managed to be brought some clothes and still trying to get used to them. Eyes were made for the blackness inside of these halls and shi had yet to find that stupid Blake had hidden to keep hir chained down here for a little while longer.
However shi had been allowed several meters of chain to walk around with before having to venture back into the dank depths of the dungeon.
Since shi had been witnessed to change and ravenous appetite and questionable loyalty, the red beast was to be kept here until shi was in a stable condition.
Growling in anticipation and tired of waiting for the meal of the day, shi slowly moved around and stopped suddenly as shi heard something coming. The heaviness of steps sounded dragon, but the daintiness in each step was not the one shi was waiting for. However, this oppurtunity was not going to go unsupported as it was an oppurtunity to get a fresh kill instead of the already dead ones that were often brought back.
I'll toy with this one since that black dragon hasn't shown up yet... Children or not to take care of, I still need to feed before going insane...
The greedy beast growled again, crouching and waiting for this other uninvited guest to approach even closer. The ahuizotl hybrid would do the honors of seeing to her return to the light with marks of the beast.

Forsynthia suddenly stopped and tensed, listening intently.
She had most definitely heard a growl, faint as it was. The dragoness sniffed, got something, and swung her light around, searching. It lit upon two doorways, both with closed doors. It was a ways down the hall, but she padded quietly and quickly to them.
Choosing the one on the left first, she opened it, pushing it farther open as she ducked behind the wall and slipped a knife from it's sheath on her hip. People didn't normally growl and have good intentions.
After about a minute spent waiting, she slowly peeked around the corner of the door frame. The light shone on a round room, bare of anything living.

She quietly expelled a breath and closed the door, then went to the other one. Honestly, her claws were probably better than this dagger in her hand now, but it had more reach. Enemies thought longer when someone was armed, as well. Claws weren't always a weapon.
Doing the same with this door as the previous one, she waited another few minutes before shining her flashlight's beam into it.
Long hallway, cells on the sides. So that room was used for, or had been, something as malicious as she wanted it for. She still didn't hear or see anything, but there was a smell, definitely anthro. It had a weird...it was unlike anything she'd smelled before, and even her instincts couldn't fill in the gaps. They had no idea what this was either...not really natural, perhaps. Something to be feared, or atleast to be tread around with caution.
The white dragoness took one step inside the door, looking into the cells near her, then arced the beam of bright yellow-white light back down the hallway.

The room she was currently in was one room she should not have visited on such an early uninvited date. Within the room she was in was another with more malicious intents than she could fathom in torture towards any victim.
Shi, this creature had no name just yet. Shi had no reason to reveal the true form in which had been taken over the period of months in recooperation.

Growling again, the beast was stationed atop in the rafters, evading the light whenever it came too close to hir. This was another dragon, one Shi had never seen before at this prisonhold. Be her friend or food only depended upon how well shi could move and evade hir strike downs. Moving in a swift motion and the chain barely making audible tones even Shi could hear, the beast climbed down and towards this guest.
"You should not be here... Get out.."
The ahuizotl growled behind Forsynthia, moving away out of sight before the light had a chance to manuever around to the spot Shi had taken dangerously close.
"Get out or become a meal for a demon..."
Shi snarled this time, lowering hir body down silently behind Forsynthia, easily reaching her own height and looking ever so menacing with eyes of the abyss and pupils glowing like a distant explosion.

Forsynthia lowered her body position slightly for balance, reaching out her senses as she heard the first statement, trying to pick out the location of this enemy. Whoever this was, it was most certainly not a friend.
Despite wanting to swing around, she kept her paws rooted, smell and hearing working hard.
Then the threat, and the snarl both made her able to locate the supposed demon, and her feet moved in a blur as she shot away from the door, spinning to face the creature's strange eyes.
"I like how you say get out, then block the exit," she hissed.
Bending her knees, she backed up a few more steps, adding, "Why would you make it so easy for prey to escape, though? Two warnings? You must not truly want to kill right now. I never give my victims any warning...why did you bother?"
Not taking her gaze off the the other's strange eyes, she quickly sheathed her dagger and brought out another one. It was thinner, but longer, and most importantly, made of her scales. She'd been lucky to have just finished this before she ventured down here. She'd found the acid worked as a sort of glue for her scales as well, making them tighter. It hadn't yet worked on herself, though.

Chuckling darkly, sounding as if two males and a female chuckling in unison, the creature merely gave a toothy grin as the new dagger replaced the one that had recently been a mere toy.
"Why do I bother with threats and allow for easy escapes? Hmm.. well let's see.."
Disappearing into thin air and appearing to the hind left of the white dragon, shi giggled darkly.
"I can disappear before you even have a chance to swing.. Besides, I'm not used to company coming so willing down here without bringing me a treat to better behave and be nice.."
Swishing hir tail around and pulling it up with the chain gripped in those powerful claws. That clawtail was more dangerous than the rest of hir. It was mere fact as it had three times the amount of muscle within it.
"Unless.. you come for some other games to play..."
Deliberately grinned and dropping hold of the chain with hir clawtail and taking several bold steps towards the white dragon. Danger and threats rarely ever truly seemed to be part of a terror for this thing. When faced with those options, it was often turned into a game of death. But until Blake was to show up with food for hir, shi could use a little extra 'company' for a show before mealtime...
"But of course one so bold as you.. well.. you really think that dagger of your scales will hurt me? Come now, that acid you create would do more damage by the time I heal.."
Being a psychic had many perks, especially when being able to control exactly how to terrorize an enemy or victim into a slight confusion.

Forsytnhia smiled slightly.
"Well, I'm sorry I didn't bring you a treat, but I wasn't expecting you to be down here...I came looking for that soundproof room behind the other door. I assume it's always been used for torture, and I was originally thinking I might...continue that tradition."
She watched the clawtail, then switched her eyes to the chain.
"That's the point of the scales," she said, grinning in response to the fact that she knew about it, refusing to let herself be thrown off.
From her claws the acid sizzled out onto the white blade, absorbing into it almost immediately. Now it was an acid blade, and unfortunately couldn't go back into the sheath it had come from or would drop right through. She hadn't had time to make a dagger sheath of her own scales yet, though she'd started on it.
"I'd rather not mess with you," she said, backing away towards the door. "I'm sure your...caretaker will be down soon, if you're so hungry."
She paused in speech, but kept backing away while keeping her eyes on the creature.
"Anyway, we both enjoy torturing and killing, at the very least, so maybe you'd like to...share stories?"
The white dragoness grinned, though she knew the offer could sound stupid. She honestly would like to hear stories though...obviously she enjoyed doing the killing and whatnot herself, but hearing about others doing it was very nice too.

Oh yes, shi remembered that soundproof room. Shi remembered it all very well and clear from when shi had full roam of the castle and... well.. in hir original body.
"I remember that room well... 'Tis a very fond memory for me."
Shi continued moving towards the white dragon, stepping slightly into the light. Revealing raptor claws, leather skin and hideous scars on hir face as shi grinned around those saber fangs.
"If you wish to hear some of my stories then why are you backing away? Come further inside away from light the out there.. Don't worry, I won't eat you. I gave my word this time I would behave before getting exorcised again..."
reaching forward and not caring for hir own safety, that hand had five orange claws and then further up the wrist was large dewclaw that looked dangerous just looking at it. Without caring about that acid dagger, shi was reaching for the dragons other hand to pull her more into the room to get a better look at her.
Many often feared hir in the past because they knew of things shi had done, all the cruel torture shi had ensued upon the victims shi slowly devoured and forced them to do.
"Tell me, Dragoness, what is your definition of torture?"
The ahuizotl hybrid asked nonchalantly, for a demon that was as happy as shi was going to sound.
But when shi got close enough, there was a familiar scent that this beast knew all too well. Verdegris. Oh how shi desperately wanted to shred him apart and devour his heart for eternity.

((Sorry for a late post, been exceedingly busy))

(Nah it's fine, don't worry ^_^)

"Well I couldn't be sure you'd accept it, so just in case..."
Forsynthia avoided the other's clawed hand, one far more so than her's, and stepped closer. Jeez...she had thought she was dangerous...but this one's appearance was far more strange and deadly. Atleast she was attractive...she refused to think in such a low way, though. That was too feminine, to be so competitive about looks and attitude. She hated it when people did that.
Lowering the dagger, she smirked at the question, silver eyes narrowing. The pupils widened slightly.
"Ahhh. I know there are many definitions for torture, but mine...you see, I'm actually a bit of vampire. I have vampiric tendencies, that is. I like blood. I like to bite. So often when I torture, it's just draining. Very slowly. A little clawing. Sometimes I'll also eat them, but that's usually when they're already dead..."
She shrugged. "I really don't torture much. I usually just kill and drink."
The white dragoness rubbed her chin, thinking. "Mm, what about you?"

The avoidance of hir clawed hand made the creature smirk. Ruffling out hir black mane a little, the beast sat upon hir tail like a stool as shi listened.
Honestly shi was not truly listening to this dragoness speak as shi was about the fact shi had recently been around that winged lizard Verdegris.. Hmmm... this one will prove quite the usefullness when the time comes to renounce my sweet side... Shi thought in an almost bitter fashion. But when it came to the question, hir pointed ears perked only slightly, appearing to have twitched.
However, there was an evil glint in those eyes as shi was asked what hir view on torture was.
"Honestly you will have been the first to live without feeling the torture I ensue.. Course most are bound by a special wire that only digs deeper the more you struggle. Once the hands and mouth are bound and hung, I engage with barbed whips and spears to beat and mangle. Once I get a wound open enough, I get a glass and drink it like a fine wine..."
Shi gave a toothy smile, reminiscing on the good ole days several years back.
"After I get a taste of their bloor then proceed to shred their body bit by bit, ripping chunks off for a meal until the stomach becomes full... Am I being too much to engrave into your memory? Trust me, its one thing to reminisce and another to witness it in reality. Or you could ask the only two survivors... of course they only survived because I was killed before I could finish them off. One refuses to remember that fateful night and the other shutdown when he remembers EVERYTHING I put him through.."
Standing up and moving in a slow manner, nonstalking, she moved towards the dragoness' tail. Touching it slightly shi grinned.
"And besides, I believe you are already acquainted with the male survivor... ask him how his tail is feeling nowadays for me.. I'd love to know what he is doing to hide the fear of me coming back for him again..."
Talon was really asking for trouble right now. And if there was a good time for hir meal ticket to arrive, it would be now as the ahuizotl hybrid was getting rialed up in a game that would result badly for both females.

(Hrm, should I post, and then Drake? Or him now?)

((Go ahead and post then Drake post))

"The first to live without your torture...was hoping you'd say that," the dragoness thought, playing with the handle of the dagger.
Forsynthia felt a smile forming on her face at the images that the creature gave her through words...it would be a very great thing to witness. Maybe she could join too? She wasn't so sure about that one, but...maybe.
She saw the creature touch her tail, and felt it, and when it talked...what the demon said sent a small chill down her spine. Fear like nothing she'd ever known raced through her body, and she swallowed, clenching her hands and getting a hold of herself.
What the hell was that? Am I...scared for...him??"
The white dragon shook her head and turned back to the other. "I'll make sure to. Also, do you think I could come along next torture session? If you get out of here..."
Trailing off, she backed away.

(I could be making much longer posts, but I can't get the words right. Ugh >_< Sorry)

Blake was kind of furious at himself, knowing he was running late. And this time it wasn't for a good reason really, he'd tried to find a nice live animal or two for Krynn to "play" with. Sadly the farmer wasn't willing to part with any, and his detour to the woods only came up with a deer he had to snap the neck of. Still, he was bringing plenty of fresh meat. And it wasn't exactly easy marching down the steps carrying a few hundred pounds over his shoulder, and making sure nobody was stupid enough to follow him. Heading toward her "room" something felt off. The big dragon shrugged as he continued walking, until he saw the cells weren't closed off. "Aw ****"

He kept the bag of food with him, running to the open door and frantically scanning the area for Krynn. She was there alright, and... someone else? Hey... wasn't that white dragoness the one hanging around Verdy? How'd she get down here? And how was she still breathing? "What's going on here? Krynn?"

The fact that the dragoness seemed fairly confident, that is until hir words seemed to have seeped into her mind. You can only be so scared for someone until you realize they are just another toy for you.. The creature thought to hirself.
Shi had once thought it was possible to ignore the boundaries and begin a new life of being nice. But having once had two souls, one twisted and the other scared, in the same body caused the body grief and often made the body look incredibly sick.
"I wouldn't see why not. If you can help me get free it could be on anyone of your choosing.. Don't worry though, I won't be after your young friend. I've had my fun with him once before, didn't do any good whenhe has such a large heart pumping blood. You see this chain, I need the key to unlock it.. It was specially made for someone with the ability like I have. Keeps us under a lock and key one would say..."
She stopped talking ears perking completely up as shi heard something. Dark eyes seemed to glow as shi walked passed Forsynthia but stopping as shi saw a familiar dragon.
Narrowing hir eyes and crossing hir arms as shi stared at him.
"You're late!"
Shi gave a quiet growl, trying to hide a smirk as shi saw that bag of meat. Disappearing into the shadows and reappearing as close to the bag as possible.
"And what magnificent food did you bring me this time hmm? Is it rabbit or deer?"
Shi asked, tail wagging as shi sniffed the air for the correct scent.
