Terrifying Rubina

Screech. 

With the sharp sound, I opened the mithrill door of the cell where the Nightmare was imprisoned, and the five of us entered the cell once again. 

When we stepped inside, we could see the restrained Rubina sitting on her chair with an unenthusiastic slouch. She noticed our entrance and briefly took a glance at us, then slouched back again. 

She was throwing tantrums earlier but seemed to calm down now. It might be hard for her to accept the cruel truth. First, she died in her fight with Mother, and then she went literally powerless once resurrected. 

Since she had pulled in her horns now, we seized this chance to have a chat with her. We had many questions to inquire about, but we had to check her condition first. 

"Hello there, Rubina." I greeted her, but Rubina did not move. "How are you feeling?" 

"Kill me already." She responded while she slouched.
