Jordie blushes. "Uhm…"

"OH MY OVERCOOKED CHRISTINA AGUILERA ENGLISH MUFFINS, WHAT THE HECK IS THAT?" Jordie screamed after seeing the ominous figure.

"Uhm…" Cole pauses, hand hovering over the melting clock again. "This wasn't quite what I had in mind but I'll take it."

"This is your idea of entertainment?" Blade asked. "To meet someone who may or may not want to kill us?"

He waves, and then says in the exact evilish tone, "Hello there, I'm-" He stops, coughs, takes a drink of water. "Sorry. I'm Shade." His voice is far more natural now, and he faces you with a more honest- but still mischievous- grin. "Nice to meet you."

Blade sighs. "Well, then. I'm Blade." Luna appears by her side again, sniffing the clock. "And this is my wolf, Luna."

Jordie's utterly terrified expression softens as she waves to Shade. "I'm Jordie. I'm sorry I screamed about Christina Aguilera and english muffins when I saw you."

Cole smiles, recognizing a fellow mischief-maker. "I'm Cole."

He chuckles. "Ah, no worries. Most people react like that. I have these beauties to thank." He taps his huge devil horns. Plus, my hammy villain voice probably doesn't help." He waves hello to the wolf.

(I'll prolly still be here, see y'all in a bit!)

"Yeah, I can imagine." Cole eyes Shade's garb and grins. "And I bet you play up the part as well."

Shade smirks. "Well, I think so. People are decently afraid of me." He chuckles to himself, as if remembering an inside joke. "Though I've been attacked by fewer angry mobs then my heroic friends, funnily enough."

"Fair enough," Blade says. "I like the look though."

"Agreed," Jordie notes.

"Ooh, why's that? Are heroes less revered in your world?" Cole asks. This is very interesting…

"Thanks." He says in response to the compliment. He turns to Cole, and explains, "Well its more of a prejudice thing, then a distinctly hero thing. Basically my friend has horns like mine, just a little smaller. And he just has real bad luck, and tends to rile up an angry mob just by existing. Me, I flaunt it, act all evil. He just tries to live life, and somehow gets blamed for more crud then I do. Just bad luck I guess." He sighs a little sadly.

"That's sad," Blade says. "But that's life, I guess. I know how that feels." She kicks the wall softly.

"Me too," Jordie murmurs, her face's lively look fading.

"Oh," Cole mutters. "Yeah, that-that absolutely sucks. I'm sorry. You're brave though." He looks back up at Shade. "For flaunting it and not let them get you down."

"Thanks," Shade says somberly. Unnerved by the very sad mood, he clapped loudly and said, "So! What exactly is this place? I just got here, so a tour or something would be nice."

"Flaunting the evil is fun, though," Blade says quietly, hiding a smile.

"It's a rip in reality. There's danger down the lit hall and paradise down the shadowy one. Downstairs is a lounge with a bunch of food and that's it so far. Oh plus the stairs."

"Yeah, not much," Blade says. "It's kinda boring in here."

"It's a rip in reality. It really shouldn't be," Cole answers before pushing the clock. The glass softens underneath his hand until he's falling, falling, falling- but to where?
