Bestia triumphans
Accompanied by numerous guards, they went down the wide stone stairs to the dungeon, and by the light of hundreds of torches Tanais saw monsters in existence is mind refused to believe it. She quickly looked away, trying to suppress an acute attack of nausea.
- Really do not you like? - He asked with mock surprise Tomiris. - Take a look at this beauty!
The cage was something so horrible and disgusting that Tanais broke down and closed her eyes for a moment. Cold chills ran along her spine when she found the strength to take another look at the nightmarish creatures of the human mind of the patient. Only a real fool could imagine this brutal unblinking gaze of a basilisk, this kinzhalovidnymi strewn with stinking fangs fall, it goropodobnoe covered with slimy scales body, which stretched in all directions, intense twisting, long, thick in girth, the tentacles with suction cups.
- He is very hungry, he had since yesterday morning did not eat anything, and now is able to swallow the whole bull - Tanais turning to face with a cruel smile sorceress he said. - I made him a light breakfast, and if after five minutes I did not hear the answer, your friend will become his prey.
Tanais was silent, and only a cold sweat streaming down her brow, gave her despair.
- You do not love her ... - Tomiris noticed a cruel smile watching for signs of fear, speaking clearly on the face of Tanais.
- I love her, do not hesitate to share it with her fate.
- Do you think that I'll admit it? - Sarcastically asked sorceress. - Do not even hope. I'll have to give up your girlfriend in the cage and make you look like the fangs of the beast will tear thee as a favorite body like squirts a fountain of blood perekushennogo throat ... You hear her dying scream, which sounded curse you, and never in my life you can not forget it. It will haunt you day and night, sleeping and waking, and will bring to mind ... Timeout. I listen to your answer - and Tomiris fixed her gaze on his victim, full of fire and blood.
- No ... - barely audible whisper Tanais and he looked straight into the eyes of his tormentor.
- Zeus Witness: I did not want blood - slowly and quietly murmured Tomiris, and her eyes faded. - Guardian lead girl.
Sentinels rushed to obey orders, and soon returned, leading Aletheia.
At the sight of creepy monsters she screamed and began to tear the hands of the guards, but suddenly ceased resistance and fell unconscious.
- What with her? - asked Tomiris disgust.
- Only a faint, Mrs.
- I want her to die while fully conscious.
The air smelled some herbs, and some time later Aletheia opened her eyes in bewilderment and fear looked around the dungeon with monsters who were in it.
Seeing Tanais, she uttered a faint cry and held out her thin hands, as if begging for protection, but two powerful guards firmly held Tanais shoulders, not allowing to move.
With a grim smile watched Tomiris for those with a violent force were drawn to each other, these two, and something akin to envy flashed for a moment in her impenetrable gaze.
Imperious gesture, she pointed to a cell with a monster, and a huge Eidos, without apparent effort Aletheia picked up in his arms, carried her to be eaten by predators.
Tanais rushed with such incredible force that she was able to dump both the guards and escape. Ignoring rained down on her from all sides blows, she ran across the path of eidos, Aletheia keep on hand, but two guards caught her and pushed to the floor and giant Aletheia easily pushed between the bars into the cell.
Cold tentacle monster rings wrapped around the victim's body and head with a terrible scream unhappy disappeared into the jaws of the monster. There was a crunch of bone to crack, and a few moments later, it was over for good.
Stop the senseless resistance Tanais distraught gaze held glimpsed between the fangs monster and a bloody piece of meat hung exhausted at the hands of Eidos. They let her go; deprived of support, she collapsed to her knees and buried his forehead against the stone floor of the cave, fell silent.
Slowly, though cautiously, Tomiris approached her and stopped only when Tanais head was at her feet.
The next moment his hands Tanais with superhuman strength wrapped around her knees, and off the ground. None of Eidos had not come to the rescue of his lady, and with Tanais sorceress in her arms was inside the cell. Tentacle monster vomited burden of Tanais hands and omnipotent magician followed his victim. Tanais closed her eyes and prepared to die, but suddenly it struck a deathly silence reigned in the cave.
Opening her eyes, she saw that she remained in the great hall all alone. Cells monster, Eidos - it all disappeared, as if never existed.
She knelt down and rummaged around her hand, hoping to find at least some weapons, and heard behind a surprised exclamation:
- What have you lost?
Lively jumped to his feet, Tanais whirled and saw Aletheia, slowly descend down the stone stairs.
- What happened here?
- I hardly ever'll be able to explain it - I rushed to her, and said Tanais concluded beloved in his arms.
- Where's our hostess? It can be very angry if catch us in the act, - playfully smiled at Aletheia.
- I hope it is not up to us - with a grin said Tanais, and took his beloved in his arms and carried it easily up the stairs.
