//Mel is my character, she’s in a cell

(sure why not)
Riley muttered something under her breath. "Evie?" she asked, eyes still shut.

Alice looked over at Riley tiredly. She was waking up.

Cracking his knuckles, Xavier smiled evilly, he had been waiting for this all day. Glancing back at the girls, he could tell that everyone around him knew what was about to happen. With his hands in cords, he pulled them apart like paper. ‘And this is what you get for attacking an Angel of Death!’ Xavier though grimly. Quickly pulling out a small crystal-clear gem from his pocket, he said darkly, “This is how we take care of spirits that don’t deserve the Afterlife.”

(Want to add anything else?)

Evera's blood ran cold. Suddenly, Xavier seemed even more intimidating than before. he was no longer the serious, level headed doctor she ran into at the hospital some days. He was…an Angel of Death. She almost stopped him, but decided not to. These ninjas deserved their asses kicked.

“Say hello to my little friend Vastator.” Xavier chuckled evilly.

The ninjas decided to not like his little friend and instead of saying ‘hello’ they raced forward with their arms outstretched. “Nope!” He said simply, kicking an incoming ninja in his nether regions. Simply blasting the floor with an ice blade, Xavier froze the entire floor. All the ninjas came toppling down like a bunch of angry baby penguins. “My son did the same thing,” Xavier said to one ninjas that was sliding towards him on his back.

Lifting his little gem, he said softly, “Transitu tantum posterum non merentur.” As a small white light formed in the gem he pointed it down and allowed the light to drift around all the bodies. One by one, they fell into their eternal rest. The rivers of light quickly returned to the gemstone, but the gem never returned to its natural white color, it was now glowing black.

"It is done." He said softly.

Evera swayed. She knew the ninjas deserved it…but killing them? Taking justice into his own hands? She held her stomach to keep from throwing up. "I…you…" she swallowed hard. "You killed them."

"What did you think I was going to do?" He shrugged, "You know I'm an Angel of Death, and I'm an assassin for my king back in my world." He looked down at the bodies, "I can make them disappear if you want me too?"

"No…I get it." Evera took a deep breath, steadying herself. She crouched by the fallen ninjas and covered their eyes with her hand, closing their eyelids. Straightening up, she brushed her hair out of her face. "I'm okay. Let's go find Alice and Riley."

Xavier agreed. 'Why is she so sad that I killed them? I have their spirits right here.' He looked at the black gem, 'Black, just like their hearts."

Evera led the way down the hall, back the way they came. She didn't know if there were cameras in the building, or where Riley was. "Alice?" she whispered.

Alice opened her eyes to the sound of her name. "Eve?"

"Alice!" Evera hurried towards the sound of the other girl's voice. It was coming from a small powder room to the left of them. Yanking the door open, she tumbled inside, her eyes glossy. "Riley?"

Xavier pocked his head into the room and said bluntly. "Hey, all the ninjas are gone, you can come out now."

Alice rolled out into corridor, stopping at Xavier's feet.

Riley blinked painfully. "Evie, is that you?"

Alice rolled out into corridor, stopping at Xavier's feet.

Riley blinked painfully. "Evie, is that you?"

'What's with her?' He though, not feeling any pain at all, 'I just saved her life.'

"R-riley," Evera gasped out, her voice thick. She fell to her knees besides Riley, pulling her into her arms and holding her. "I'm so sorry. This is all my fault. I'm so, so, so, sorry. Here, lean back." She gently pushed Riley out to arms length and pulled up her shirt, inspecting the gunshot wound with a frown. Holding her hand over it, she began healing it.

"Should I carry her?" Xavier asked.

Riley blinked. "Wait, Evie… I don't remember..," Riley said softly.
