Andia: The Revolution

[Eltee]

"She's not." Aarys replied. "I trust him. He won't. He loves me."

[Duh]

Spoiler:

My phone ran out of juice while I was posting.

Is Matt at the center of camp?

Lyra began to tear up. "My husband loved me too!" she said. "But she seduced him...she did disgusting...and then that was it! Tell me, did Valentin resist when she kissed him?"

[Eltee]

Aarys's eyes flashed. "No..."

[Duh]

"That's right!" Lyra said. "That's right! Because he enjoyed it! And he wants more! You remember what I told you before I gave you that little box?"

[Eltee]

quote="Duh"]Lyra continued laughing. "Don't be so embarrassed!" she said, putting a hand on Aarys's shoulder. "If you want to get it on with him, you should! If this raid goes well, come back to my tent. I'll give you what you need."[/quote]

"What?"

[Duh]

Spoiler:

Look farther back. Before da raid.

"Men don't care about your f*cking feelings." Lyra stated. "All they care about is your body. "

[Eltee]

"That's not... No! No, no! Valentin would never... Never!" Aarys said frantically.

[Duh]

"Yeah? Keep telling yourself that. I can see it in his eyes, Rys. Valentin's not book smart, but he's people smart. He knows how to win someone over - especially a woman. Especially you. 'You're gorgeous', 'you're my little lioness' - I've heard it all! And you're falling for it!"

[Eltee]

"You're lying! He loves me!" Aarys wailed.

[Duh]

"Yeah, he loves parts of you. Parts such as your lips, maybe your chest, and most likely everything below your waist. But he doesn't love you."

[Eltee]

"Nononononono..."

[Duh]

"Deny it all you want." Lyra said. "You're my friend. I'm just giving you a warning. He's going to break your heart."

Lyra let Aarys go and left the tree, leaving her alone.

[Eltee]

Aarys stood there for several seconds, anxiously pulling a strand of her hair. "Not... He's not... He's not!"

[Duh]

"He is." Said a voice from behind the tree. It was Mary.

[Eltee]

Surprised, Aarys rabbit-punched Mary in the face, breaking her nose with a loud snap. "Oh, God! Oh... Oh! I'm sorry!"

[Duh]

"Oh, it's quite alright."

Mary waved her hand over her nose, casting a powerful healing spell over th injury. He nose healed perfectly.

[Duh]

Spoiler:

Guys am I being too evil?

[Eltee]

Spoiler:

Meh.

Not knowing what to do, Aarys quickly walked away, approaching Valentin.

[Duh]

Spoiler:

No such thing.

"Your friend was right." Mary said. "Lyra. She told you the truth. Just leave him now before your heart is broken."

[Eltee]

"Shut up! You b*tch! You stupid b*tch! Are you still with Lyra's husband? No! Of course not! Because no one will ever love a stupid, meddling b*tch like you! You will live alone, grow old alone, die alone, and I'll be the only one at your dirt cheap funeral, just so I can P*SS ON YOUR GRAVE!" Aarys screamed, before walking off in a huff.

[Duh]

Mary grabbed Aarys' jacket from behind and hurled her into a bush. She looked down at the Woodland Elf and giggled. "Want to know a secret, sweetheart?" she said quietly. "I left Lyra's husband. I left him for a certain Human man you claim to be engaged to. Mmm, I remember the night I met Valentin Fairfax. He was so gentle...yet so strong. He was drunk as hell. I took him right back to my chambers and we had some good fun." She paused for a moment. "When I woke up the next morning, he wan't there. And I just didn't remember his name...That is, until I met him again this morning."

[Eltee]

"AHHHHH!" Aarys jumped up, and, pirouetting, kicked Mary in the ribs. "Get the HELL out of my life!"

[Duh]

Mary was forced to the ground. She laughed breathlessly. "Go ahead! Run to him! Embrace your false paradise! I could tell when I kissed him...he wanted more."

[Eltee]

Aarys kicked her again. "Shut up!"

[Duh]

"'Val, they hurt my feelings!'" Mary mocked, the wind knocked out of her.
