"You didn't to see exactly, but you saw enough to know that this demon was *Female* Hence your use of female pronouns, correct? And- You just so happened to be running from-" *She walked over to Ysildea and her summon* "These two... Coincidentally with weapons in their hands? Hm? You see-" *She sighed as she drummed her fingers together.* "I am getting frustrated because while you haven't lied to me, you're omitting information which, arguably is within the same jurisdiction." 

*Ah ha... And now they were getting to the root of the matter.* "The only other demon I've met besides Roku and Ysildea and her summon... Was the Shadow Demon... I can't explain it, normally I am a fair judge of character but I don't think hee to be responsible for leveling an entire village.." *Not with how she was approached by her.* "And now, I will gather two testimonies from either side. Since your friend is already asleep, I will use him as a witness..." *Lowering to the ground to sit on her knees, both bodies were within her eye soght, so this would be a relatively simple procedure.* "Roku, please guard my body. I need to concentrate while I pull them in.." *Realizing that sounded ominous, she'd turn to Binx for clarification* "The dream world.." *Faedon could explain further if nessecary. For now, she didn't have the time to.*
Robert
*Went quiet, as he listened he walked towards ysildea and lifted her up moving her back against a tree he slowly moved beside her* `"The demon that was summoned freed me, I didn't make any deal or anything with her she probably got tired of my antics, she was funny and comedic care free."` *He spoke softly* `"Ai I don't think it's necessary to waste your time in his mind since the building collapsed on his friend, his friend is useless in information. Enter ysildeas mind and talk to her."` *He spoke he thought it made no sense to check someone's mind that had a building collapsed on them to save time just talk to ysildea.* `"The bodies were charred with flames, and like streaks of lightning like thing on some of the bodies and on the ground and engraved in some of the buildings."` *He pointed out to ysildea he didn't know the abilities of ysildeas summons hopefully could help ai*
Terry
*Slowly went quiet then spoke soon after* `"I use female pronouns? Huh? I said female because you ask if she was trying to kill me..."` *He began to think* `"Can you not invade my friends dreams while he is recovering it's not like he has any valuable information to give you he needs to rest please."` *He was semi pleading with her even though Faedon explained how it worked he was just scared they might kill him if he says ysildea was the one that slaughtered the village who in the right mind would tell a demons sister that is a vampire hey your sister slaughtered a village he sighed holding his friend trying to calm himself down his hands shaking slightly and nervously*
Laura
*Breathes softly as he turns on his side his injuries slowly healing as he slept the bruises slowly fading away the fractures in his bones mending he groans ever so often with a pained look.*
Marlene
*Releasing an irritated huff, what part of concentrate did this one not understand?* "What was the very first thing you shouted when you ran here? "She's going to kill us all" Is what you said. And I hadn't even uttered a word to you before that..." *He had gotten caught up in his own circle and it was embarrassing to be honest.* "Its a dream. It doesn't cost him any excess energy on his part... Myself on the other hand-" *Her fingers twitched in annoyance.* "If I have to spell out every part of this that you don't understand, this is going to take a millenia that I have and you don't." *God, were there no legalities or laws wherever he was from? What, was he born in a barn? Or was he just never held in a court with a jury of his peers? Good lord she hated the ignorance of humans sometimes.

Now then, she'd begin.

She would set the stage in a courtroom, comical enough, with her as the judge and Ysildea on one side of the room on a stand, and Rua on another side of the room in a stand.* "Court is now in session." *Another version of Ai as an attorney walked up with papers, there were guards who were also Ai... A jury, made up of several different Ai's as well as a lawer Ai. Judge Ai would bang her gavel* "Ysildea you have been brought before the court today under a series of very heinous accusations. You've been in the dream world, you know how this works. In the living world, Binx told us everything... I suppose I'd just like to hear your side and how you plead."
Laura
*Opened his eyes in his dream he was confused as ever was he dead he placed his hand on his head what was going on? As ai said court is in session was this some joke the gods wishes to play on him before his death.* `"What's going on?"` *He was confused very confused one moment he was taking to binx next the building collapsed on him and everything went black now he was in a court room? Oh... The forest he was running in the forest with Binx he saved his life but didn't know from exactly who.* `"What's all this about?"`
Donnie
*Opened her eyes and looked at ai with the most puzzled and stupid look, as she said court is in session? She really didn't care for much of this what kind of silly tradition this was? A gavel instead of a sword no elders or tribunal of warrior's?* `"Ai what's going on what is this silly stuff here?"` *They had courts but each different per culture in the blood flame they had court rooms but nothing like the one ai made in the dream world, Rua was confused but understood as the courts were somewhat similar but the gavel seemed excessive to him.* `"I know the dream Binx? Who's Binx the boy I wanted to talk to, what side of what story sister?"` *She asked quietly.*
Marlene
"You killed the entire village.." *Spoke attorney Ai.* "You slaughtered everyone, he told us everything. Why? Why'd you do it? Why were you trying to kill this man and his companion? We have a witness, and a testimony.." *Hushed whispers and murmurs spread around the Ai audiences.* "I turn the floor over to you good sir. What do you recall happened at the aforementioned events of the earthquake, and why you were running from her in the forest? We've already been told one side... We're just trying to gather all accounts."
Donnie
`"Ai what's wrong your acting strange."` *She simply stated wondering ai's curious behavior, she did feel her heart sunk it was nerve racking but if ai knew for 100% certainty that she had killed everyone else in the village they wouldn't be having this trial* `"I tried those two because in the village all when I arose from the rubble after saving the little girl and coming back to see what happened all the filthy humans mobbed together screaming demon ect saw these two in the deep forest if they go to another town or village and tell them about demons in a village bounties would be placed on our heads. They saw us perosnally and know our faces from the inn that's why."`
Laura
*Looked down his memory was fuzzy* `"An earthquake happened, a building fell on me, Binx and me casted spells I was to slow it nearly killed me, I guess if this isn't the place before death, I don't know. Then everything went black woke up outside the village in the forest to binx hauling me along running from something I know not what of as I was dying, but I did feel I lost all my breath like we fell down a hill then he shoved something in my mouth to keep me quiet that's it."`
Marlene
"Ahh. So you thought the best kind of witnesses, were *No* Witnesses..." *The scene melted away into a black room with a scale... Ysilsea sitting on one gold plate, with Rua on the other. And it was a very large scale... And Ai stood at the base looking up at the two of them.* Do you think that... Your life, is worth more than his? More valuable than his?...I suppose it doesn't matter what you think because the scale you're sitting in isn't tipping one way or the other..." *She'd motion with her hand a tipping motion, and the scale would topple and crumble to the ground which flipped them around like a rotating door. And now they were in a grey and desolate graveyard. Nothing but wooden crosses and headstones for miles and miles as far as the eye can see. Ai sat on one of the large stone crosses just... Looking out into the wasteland.* "You aren't the grim reaper Ysidlea. Its not your job to decide who gets to die or live... And I had thought you would have known the difference between good and evil. Right and wrong... To my disappointment, that doesn't seem to be the case here."

*In the real world, she would deliver the grim news aloud to the awake parties in the group.* "She killed them. She killed them all. She wanted there to be no witnesses... Which is why she was trying to kill you two. She was trying to protect us.." *But this was not the way to do it. This was a very bad way to do it.* "I bluffed, I told her that Binx told me everything... And then she just confirmed the rest on her own." *She'd let that settle, as she still had to think about what had to be done, and what should be done.*
Donnie
*Was getting angrier by the minute what was wrong with ai she hadn't seen this side of her, before it was making her upset that ai was treating her differently.* `"Life is a means to an end you know that well not for you or me but for humans such a spec a grain of sand in the greater scheme of things. There is people around this planet, and 90% of them if they were given a choice, kill two people save your family and friends or let them go and your family and friends and yourself will die everyone will choose the latter no matter how morally wrong one portrays it to be this is the hard truth of the world and most don't understand it until it comes down to them in such a situation."` *She thought for a few more moments, as ai said she wasn't the grim reaper she wasn't, but she wouldn't let anyone stand in the way of them, she did what she had to do to protect them.*

*She took the burden the mountain of skeletons and pools of blood she stood on and wore it not out of pride or honor, of what she did but because she has to who else besides her would do what needs to be done.* `"The difference between good and evil ai is a thin line, to one kingdom goes to war with another, because they need the food the other one has. The other one goes to war with another kingdom for the water they have and need they kill each other both in belief of what they think is right for there people at the sacrifice of the other people."` *This was the reality for most of the world of course they're would be people that would be willing to save others at the sacrifice of there family and friends but that, was far and few in-between she had never confirmed that she slaughtered the village only that she tried to kill the two of them but it could be assumed and rightfully so that she did under the guise of no witnesses.*
Laura
*Was less confused as things went on so she is on trial? For killing, well trying to kill him and his friend, he looks down then up listening to ai speak saying the demon wasn't the grim reaper he then heard the opposing argument the more and more he listened the more it made sense to him, he would agree with her silently if his family and friends were in danger he would try to kill the others to protect what is his, did it make it right no but still blood on there hands no matter what.*
Terry
*Breathes slightly before looking down at his friend he felt fear enter his body again, she tried to kill them to protect ai Faedon and the little demon girl* `"That doesn't make it right! Anyone with a conscious shouldn't kill another person another life, under the premise of I'm protecting my own! You find another way of there not actively trying to kill you, you don't kill them."` *He gritted his teeth angrily*
Robert
*Already saw enough of what he needed to see he turned to look at ysildea with emotion in his eyes if she tried to kill them because of witnesses it's not to far fetched now... That she could have killed the entire village... The burned bodies he burried marks of flame he knew it deep down all survivors were killed by ysildea* `"I saw burned baby cradled in her mother's arms clinging to the carriage with another wrapped around the mother to try and save her to no avail I burried them in this mountain, with my bare hands."` *His voice began to shake he wasn't sad more angry but other unexplainable emotions were over him his humanity within him cried out this was something he had no clue how to feel about* `"If she wanted to kill those two, for witnesses... Then... What to say she didn't kill the whole village after the earthquake."` *He placed a hand over his face he needed a break, he couldn't do this, he didn't want anymore innocence to die, he wanted to get away his face scrunched up with disgust.*
Marlene
"Everything happens for a reason." *The world melted away like a painting in the rain... And now they were in a wide open field with gray skies and black grass.* "You wouldn't of had to kill the two men, who would never have witnessed an atrocity, that was you killing hundreds who were panicked from an earthquake, and now that we are at the root of the flower... What caused the earthquake Ysildea? What caused... The *Earthquake*?" *There would have been a reason to protect them if there was **A problem to begin with** Now, who lit the match to start the fire? She moved a bishop on a chessboard that was laid out on the grass.* "But we are not a Kingdom Ysildea, and what you did was wrong. Very, very wrong." *It caused a lot of problems for a lot of people.* "The fact was that, our family was *Not* In danger until... Until what Ysidlea? What happened that put them in that danger?" *Check.* "There were scorched women... And children... And babies. The world is going to paint us with the devils brush and we will be despised wherever we go. People will try to destroy us more and more and you don't seem tonrealize that you are harming the cause, not helping it." *It was a wonder in itself how her flame had not abandoned her over that.

In the real world, she sat in contemplation.* "I don't think... This can go uncorrected. I don't want the world to see me as the villain in history's story.." *After all, her kind was currently battling each other in an all out war for this very reason.* "I am not sure how I want to proceed from here.." *Roku even picked up in that behavior. Killing everyone, even those who weren't attacking or aggressive. That just wasn't right. Ysildea's problem, is she couldn't put herself on the other side of the coin. She could be mad all she wanted but Ai wasn't the one taking out five year-olds.*
Donnie
`"Yes everything does."` *She sighs softly placing her hands on her head to think, as ai asked about the earthquake she spoke* `"It was caused when me and my summons tried to kill a demon, we collided our blades as the demon disappeared, which lead to the earthquake."` *She didn't know there were scorched women and babies she only killed the adults. She found maybe her summons? But then ai was right she had no reasoning she could think of that could back her if the earthquake didn't happen then none of this not even this conversation would have happened but she needed to kill that demon but even then the demon got away* `"No one will come for us now. There is no one left I planned to bury the village with the mountain side make it look like a land slide like part of the mountain came down. With no one left there is no one to tell the tale of any demon."` *She sighed and spoke again* `"This all started from me trying to kill a demon but after the events was set in motion, there was no going back and I did what had to be done. Tell me ai suppose right for a few moments. After the earthquake, what happened to you from what I heard when you told Faedon the humans proclaimed you a demon and tied you to a stake to burn you alive. Roku freed you. Now if I left right all the people that was witness to everything that transpired. What stories would there feeble little minds say. Your intelligent sister these lower life forms panic at the sight of anything they can't comprehend and blow it from a tiny thing to a massive explosion."` *She thought for a few moments* `"You did nothing didn't kill or hurt a soul but the human who proclaimed you a demon and the ones who witnessed it if left alive would run to every village and town far and wide spread a tale of a band evil demons that are nothing but monsters I prevented that and therefore further strife because how many adventurer's would be sent to hunt us how many people would we have to kill because of that."`
Robert
*Everything made sense now he walked over to ai and kneeled down beside her as he placed his hand on her cheek closing his eyes he spoke softly* `"I... Can't forget what I saw.. What ysildea... Did... Somethings shouldn't happen. I get into small fist fights I don't kill people because they look at me wrong I'm not evil, but I'm also not got but I will not go down in a sinking ship be wanted in every country we go to because she can't control her urges and vile thoughts. That right there what she did if it was anyone else I would have slit there throats by now while they were here as she is but she is your sister out friend. She has lost her way."` *He says this with a heavy heart and a face and eyes akin to what people who have seen to much have like there was nothing behind his eyes at all now if she were to gaze into his eyes nothing would stare back.* `"What do we do with her."` *He slowly moved his hand and placed one running his fingers through his hair* `"If it was anyone else it would be easy, but she needs her powers taken away or something she is a danger to everyone even us she is putting all of us and herself in grave danger."`
