Darth Themis
The Best of Frenemies
Themis fought brutally as the fight against the Fragments of Ersethy dragged on. Themis's grace was the grace of liquid, while Laertia had a mix of both savagery and grace in her blade movements.
She was more magnificent in combat then both her parents had been. Themis had never personally witnessed such grace in Form One. She hoped Alyosha Drutin was paying attention.
"Yess, Alyosha. Duh Lytesabuh Forrmz..." Laertia confirmed, gutting another with her blade as they pressed forward, not missing what Alyosha had done in the darkness...
She said nothing, of course. Force only knew how fethed in the head she herself was...
Themis in the meanwhile had started blasting the Fragments with Dark Green Lightning as they pressed forward, fighting their way into a chamber, making sure they never lost sight of Alyosha in the chaos.
Laertia found a chamber and retreated into it with Themis and Alyosha. Themis immediately shut the doors and sealed them with a spell, giving her time to think...
"Are you injured?" Themis asked her Grand Daughter.
"No..." Laertia answered quietly, shutting her saber off and going into a meditative position on both knees.
"Well, we've bought ourselves a breather. I can feel the source of the darkness up ahead. We'll need a better plan for up ahead. There will be more of them..."
She went up to Alyosha.
"You've done very well so far, my Apprentice. Rest now. Gather your strength."
Themis was genuinely impressed by Alyosha. He was Master material...it simply needed to be chipped away.
Themis had been so like him, once. Perhaps that was why she was taking his evolution with such pride.
"I owe you a lot for saving my life earlier, and the life of my only living family member..." she admitted. "And you are far exceeding my expectations. When we reach the end of this, you'll take your first steps into a larger world...and more challenging lessons will lay ahead. But if you can kill a Kaiju, you can pass those tests. I know it."
"Wee waitz fer nowwz..." Laertia said...we straatajyze, dhenn wee strykez..."
Themis meditated, closing both eyes, getting on her knees, and searching for what answers could be found...
"If we leave this place at any time before an hour mark, we'll be overwhelmed and killed..." She spoke..."When we leave we must all make a beeline for the piece of that witch causing this...its in the southwest...but that area I sense is also crawling with abominations...quite the conundrum..."
