Ken was now being ruthlessly ignored as Mathew just stared down Piper. Waiting in silence.

Ken would fold his arms.

It was a waiting game now.

The silence continues as Piper kneels there.

Minutes tick by before, finally, she looks up... and there are tears in her eyes.

"You lied to me..."

Wooaaahhh. Ken walked in on some deep shit between them. He could tell as soon as he saw the tears. She wasn't the type to cry. He would glance at her.....down at the ground, then back to Mathew.

"Sorry for calling you a douche. I'll leave."

He would turn, scoop up his apple, and walk out, not expecting a reply!

/Hasty, awkward exit

"You fucking lied to me!"

Her voice rose into a screech of desperation. Her hand found her staff again and she used it to push herself to her feet.

The speed she was missing before was there, suddenly. All of it.

She attacked Mat, then, with the vigor that had, only moments before, been absent.

She moved to get close and brought the end of the staff out, towards his throat.

Ken was completely forgotten.

As soon as she used the staff to lift herself up he'd attempt to kick it out and keep her floored.

"When?"

She kept her grip on the wood and rushed at him. Fine. No throat punch. The wood was aimed at his knees.

"You told me I would be safe!" She screamed. "I trusted you to protect me!"

One side at his knees, and then her entire body would turn, speed making her a deadly opponent, as the other side aimed for his neck again.

The knee blow would connect, dropping him down to a single knee. The metal around him exploding outward in a mass of pillars to slam into Piper and send her flying toward the far wall.

"Within these walls you are under my guard. Once you leave that gate it is up to you and the skills you have acquired. My gift to you. To all of you is the knowledge on how to fight against an enemy that will not fight fair. That will do everything to destroy you."

She was thrown from him and fell in a limp pile. Her body hurt from the impact, but she wasn't done.

She struggled to try and get back up, this time without the help of the staff.

She didn't seem to have anything else to say. Tears were fresh upon her face and the blood had dried on her throat.

"I told you to stay away from him."

He'd stand again, his arm shifting once more. This time into a club.

"If you think you know better than me, then prove to me that you can stand on your own two feet."

"I wasnt... searching for Him... He found me..."

She was breathless as she stood, facing him once more. Her body was vibrating at the memory, but when she saw His face...

She felt sick.

Traitor. Puppet. Weak. Disappointment.

She shuddered, but braced, holding her staff defensively.

He gave her a level look. He couldn't even begin to list what was wrong with that question.

"Never mind."

Her words were a hiss.

"I made a mistake. I don't know why I emailed you."

She thought he could help. She wanted to fight. To practice. But why? Obviously, he has no clue what he was talking about. Obviously, he didn't know Him at all.

She turned her back to him, gripping the staff in one hand. He had lied to her. She should have known better.

"You emailed me because you made a mistake."

He folded his arms over his chest.

"There is no God. He is just a meta like you and me."

She froze, body tense and eyes unfocused.

She wanted to believe him. She wanted to trust him. She wanted to think she could.

But his face flashed across her mind. She wrapped her arms around her waist, trying not to throw up.

"I'm nothing like either of you," she said quietly, "and you're nothing like Him. You seemed to know Him, but you dont, do you?"

She turned on her heel and faced him, suddenly. That name.... Her shoulders tensed and she meshed her teeth together.

"You know nothing!" She shouted.

"You walk around with some big fucking shield because you've lost somebody you love. We all have, Amtrum. But we try to keep going. We try to love, anyways. Because that keeps us going. We don't shove our foot down anyone else's throat, and we sure as fuck don't expect people to trust us when we don't trust them!"

She realized a little too late what she was saying, but she couldn't really stop herself.

"So maybe I am weak. Maybe I am fucking weak for finding people here I thought I could love, that could love me. Maybe I am my father's daughter. Maybe I am just a puppet. But at least I don't kind behind my mask of no emotions."

She scoffed. "At least He doesn't fucking do that. When you've upset Him, you know. But when you make Him proud, He let's you know that, too. He gives you reason to love Him, to trust Him. To worship Him. So yeah. You're nothing like Him."

His fist tightened along with his face at her words. His eyes narrowed and jaw clenched. His eyes flickered to the wall. Resisting the urge to just send a spike through her back and out her stomach. He did not like what he was hearing.

"You are nothing but an ignorant little girl pretending to know things that she can not comprehend. The real world doesn't fall into your little romanticism. He does not love you. And no one but you is calling you weak for finding love."

He'd take a heavy step forward, and then another as he'd close the distance between them. The stone arm shifting to a clenched fist.

"You are a stupid, brash, ignorant girl who presumes to tell me what I feel or do not feel. You ask for me help and then spit in my face. Well you know what I have to say to that?"

He'd jab at her chest with his flesh hand.

She didn't flinch from him as he walked to her, though her eyes widened slightly. His anger was to be expected, but... She had done pretty well at staying away from that anger.

His fist connected with her and she stumbled a few steps back, coughing at the impact, her body shaking. Fuck, that hurt.

"You... don't love... anyone... either..."

"That no matter what you say. No matter what you do. My job is to be here to make sure you are the best that you can be. Even if I have to snap you in half and pull our your potential through the marrow of your bones. You're little games will not push me away. And you will not stop me from doing my job."

He continued to glare at her.

"Don't presume that you know me when you can't even figure out yourself."

She pressed her hand to her chesr, trying to stand straight and return his glare with dignity.

"I know you better than you think. Because I'm a lot like you."

She coughed slightly and meshed her teeth together. She stood there staring at him.

"But you're wrong about me, Mat. You should have killed me."
