'T' drew out a knife with a sliver lined edge and in one liquid motion threw it
right between Karthur's eyes, and the weapon passed right through the fox
prince not leaving a mark on him. The weapon imbedded itself in the wall
behind the kitsune.
"Uh-oh." Karther giggled. "That's secret's out. Not that it matters anyway. I still
win. I always win! I don't ever lose!"
"You have a very boring life then." 'T' hissed. He got ready for a surprise attack
from behind but none came, a quick sensing showed that the real Karther
wasn't nearby anymore. "Not good."
"Very good for me!" Karther's Phantom cackled. "Right now I'm the middle of
upgrading that sweet lass Tammie into a worthy queen to stand by my side as
I reclaim the desert for my own. As for the other one, I'm still considering
weather to make her an animal with the brain of a mundane fox, turn her into
my personal cerberus, or just have my new queen assimilate her body just for
kicks!"
'T' looked at Vicki who still had his cross. "Free the others the way you did the
rest, nothing else to it." He quickly took the cross' chain and put it around her
neck and fused the links back together. "There, he can't brainwash you again
as long as you have that and an army of him wouldn't be able to remove it
from you now. I'll be back as soon as I can." He quickly pushed his fingers
against her forehead and downloaded instructions on which way to go if she
and the rest of the vixens had to leave the castle the old fashioned way.
Cursing himself for wasting precious seconds on verbal communication 'T'
reformed his sword only without a hilt, which strangely enough was able to cut
the illusion to pieces starting with it's stupidly oversized member so Karthur
wouldn't be keeping an eye on him, and smashed his way through the
sandstone floor: it was quicker than taking the stairs, and he couldn't risk a
teleport in a place that could change shape in the space of two seconds. He
only hoped that if he wasn't in time to save Tammie from an even stronger
case of brainwashing than Karthur had used on her before, he would at least
be able to save the girl once male Janice from a fate worse than death.
