Silence filled most of the darkness as James listened to Kinjo about not being truthful. The glowing of his eyes was long gone as he stood there in the far shadows holding the vine in hand. His hood rested on his shoulder blades, eyes closing he breathed softly lowering his head. It was as if he felt, felt some kind of remorse, for what he was doing. James lifted his head and spoke, his voice gentle, "Oh? So I am a lier? You don't know me well, do you?" In the darkness his lips curved into a smile as his grip tightened. The screams from the foreigner made him shiver with delight, a dark and twisted delight. Stepping into the darker depths his voice carried out, "You don't know Jason as well as I do, he would drop you. One day he will drop you hard and he will run from you - hiding and wishing he could regret. One day dear Kinjo, he will abandon you." As the word "abandon" came past from his lips his voice trailed off.<br/><br/>The silence swelled thickly, suffocatingly quiet as nothing happened for a while. Nothing made noise but figures of darkness moved and danced around in the far corners of the room. Soon that stopped and the whirring noise came again, smacking onto the soft part of the arm near the wrist.  The vine dropped to the ground in its slack as it seemed to slowly and eerily draw itself backwards. Backwards into the darkness before suddenly being jerked back. Once it was gone it came back, flying into view before smacking into Kinjo's side harshly. Vanishing it repeated that same action to his side as the voice of James called out, "Jason's not a Human. Nor is he a full Shroud as I am. He's a half breed. Jason is all I have and I won't let a human take him away again." He said the last few words with venom before an audible crack came from behind the strung up male. From seven feet up in the darkness down rained a streak of red, curving backwards to then smack Kinjo on the back hard with an audible slap as it was jerked back. A similar smack came from high up and cracked around Kinjo's right arm, peeling off quickly leaving a rope burn again before more and more smacks to Kinjo's back came. Each one hard and heavy, just like the creepy laughter James let off.
