"No idea." Seb said glancing at Terra. "Also I'm serious Sunny, what happened? Chess is not to be fucked with, we need as much intel as we can get."
"No idea." Seb said glancing at Terra. "Also I'm serious Sunny, what happened? Chess is not to be fucked with, we need as much intel as we can get."
"I know they aren't to be fucked with! I worked with them for crying out loud! Anyway, we just had a not-so-civil conversation and then Chess said he'd call the creatures off for a little bit. Until Lique finishes whatever he is doing we only have as long as Chess gives us. If only i could talk to them both at once it would be SO much easier!" Sunny rants, then realises what she actually said. "And yes, I have worked with them before, but we aren't getting into that right now, when we get back to your corp I will explain, then I'll be off!" She turns back towards Seb. "Questions? No? Good! Let's go!" She goes to leave when Sebastian grabs her arm and pulls her back inside.
"Chess doesn't work with people, people work for him. Why would Liquor- sorry Lique- agree to do anything with him." Sebastians face was blank.
(just so everyone knows, Chess is going to seperate ffrom Lique soon so we'll have an insane cheshire cat and a traumatised 16 year old here at the same time.)
(omg yay cant wait!!!)
"Do remember, he is only 16! He doesn't know what he's doing!" Sunny says with a flicker of rage.
"Something would have convinced him to do it. Even 16 year olds have reasons." Seb said, something in his voice making it sound like he was accusing her.
"All I know is that Lique made a deal with him! Why do you sound like you think I'm at fault?!" The rage in Sunny's eyes turns to despair.
Seb shrugged and turned away.
Deeper in the labs, Lique crouched, panting. The figure in front of him kneeled and lifted his head with a long claw. "There you go. Free to talk to your old friend." It hissed, its voice dripping with malice. It pushed Lique backwards and stood, lighting up its patterns blue. The blue fur on its face revealing angry eyes and long fangs. It melted back into shadow, leaving Lique alone.
Sunny can sense something. "And THAT! Was our queue!" She disappears and comes back with a terrified Lique. "Oh darling! Why did you ever think working with him was a good idea!" She pulls Lique in.
Lique pushed her away. "We aren't friends anymore Sunny. I can take care of myself." He walked to the other side of the room and sat against the wall. The ornate tattoo around his neck stood out more the ever against pale skin. He rubbed hands together and refused to look at Sunny.
"Fine then, at least call off the creatures for good! Please?" Sunny begs.
Lique paused but nodded. He looked down at his hands, a long thin scar visible on his left palm.
"Lique, the scar?" Sunny walks towards him, he pulls away at first, but then decides to let her look at it. "What happened?" She grabs his hand in hers, when she lets go, the scar is no longer visible.
"Nothing." Lique said bluntly.
"You know what! Why didn't I just do this to begin with?" Sunny grabs everyone in the room and they all disappear. They reappear, but it's sunny, they are outside. "Now, all of you, go and don't come back for anything! You are free, stay that way." She disappears.
Sunny goes down into the deepest parts of the complex, somewhere no one can find her, exhausted, she slides down the wall and cries.
Lique appears next to her. "You aren't going to say anything about last time we met?!" His face is twisted with rage. "You've doomed your friends by the way. Chess will have them now."
(the whole point is that the labs are unescapable so they are all back inside. with Chess)
(okay, didn't know that, oops!)
"What are you talking about? What do you mean the last time we met?" Sunny looks up for a brief moment, then buries her face in her hands.
"Suffering from amnesia or something?" Lique snapped. "It doesn't matter now anyway, I'm old enough to make my own decisions."
(wait, im so confused. can i have some context???)
(lique is in fact suffering from amnesia and is trying to understand his own past so he was hoping sunny would know something)
(ooohhhhhhh! okay!)
"Lique, I'm sorry about what happened to you, I really am. I just want to help you for the sake of helping alright?" Sunny manages.
Liques face softened slightly, then he turned away "I don't need your help! I don't need anyones help! I can do this on my own."
"I don't think you can, you don't even remember do you?" Sunny says softly.
