Death to Advance

----

With an unhurried gait, Apollo approached the paralyzed Violeta. Each subsequent step caused her heart to palpitate. For some odd reason, they were reminiscent of beating drums in her ear. On the other hand, she couldn't understand why she felt like this. 

"W-what is this pressure? What are you? You can't be a human… what vile tactics have you unsightly Kaiser's taken part in!? Stay away from me, I'll report you to the academies," Violeta mumbled, taking steps in retreat. 

Unfortunately, her actions were futile. After just a few steps, she was backed into a wall with no path for retreat. But, Apollo continued to look at her with an almost vacant gaze. Her expression filled with despair as her mind traveled to dark places.

"You talk too much, shut up. Where is that haughty attitude from earlier? Why don't you bring it back? Or, better yet, why don't you beg for your meaningless life as I pry it away from you," Apollo uttered with a dark chuckle.
