Salem didn't scream or anything; he merely laughed.
There was a knock on the door; it was Chryseis.
"Excuse me..."

Ecchymos stuck his head out of the door and Vhozd pulled Salem behind the door so Chryseis couldn't look in and see him. Ecchymos saw it was Chryseis and smiled.
"Hello, dear. What are you doing?"

Chryseis used her hand to smash the door open.
"I know he's in here, Mr. Lich. I want my boyfriend back."
She squinted.
"I don't wwant to have to use force."

Ecchymos smiled sweetly.
"Fine, dear, but you may want to let me finish. Otherwise, you know, I'm sure he won't be as fun to hand around with."
He laughed.

Chryseis, whose eyes glew in the dark, saw Salem.
"What... What in the world..."
She grabbed Ecchymos' robes.
"Why? What did he ever do to you?! We're on the same team, you lunatic!!"

Ecchymos smiled again.
"Lunatic? I don't think I'm the one ripping off people's skins, thank you very much."
A beetle, disturbed by Chryseis' violence, crawled out of one of the folds in Ecchymos' robe and onto her hand.

Chryseis growled, lettign the beetle crawl over her hand.
"Monoe did that of her own free will, and it's so that she'll grow up normally! You even said that you'd respect her wishes. I was right next to you."

Ecchymos' smile widened.
"I was talking about earlier, actually. Do you not remember that? Memory problems are often caused by brain lesions or related. I could fix that for you. Also, I find it hard to believe that you don't find it strange that your boyfriend had you tied up in a cage."
[[Notice how Ecchy uses the passive voice to move Chryseis' attention away from the point where he is obviously WRONG.]]

Chryseis' brow furrowed.
"First off, I am more than eager to regularly temper my body towards becoming an escape artist. Second, Salem did as you asked, since he answered Monoe's question, but didn't mention anything reproduction-related. He wanted to help Monoe, which you should agree with, and if I bring her in, right now, her feelings would sour towards you. One of her two wishes is to be normal, and you're ruining that opportunity for her."

Kogi snuck past the lady at the front and ducked behind one of the many crates. The lady looked up looked around then went back to the magazine she was reading. Kogi kept moving until he saw the man who was responsable for all the weapons. He was clanking several peices of metal togeather then would jot something down on a notepad. Kogi came up behind him and placed a blade to the front of the man's throat. He slit the man's throat but for some reason no blood. The image of the man faded and a small robot sat in the chair. "He was...a machine?" Kogi thought outloud.
"Not quiet" Alexander said.He flicked a switch and the cloaking device ceased to operate. He had two canes in his hands. "You see I've actually had several attempts on my life in the past. So I built that stand in to hold my place for me, it still acts like me and thinks like me...but it's personalit is something to be desired" Alexander said. He flicked the canes. They morphed their shapes, one became a Raiper complete with hand guard the other became some sort of fire arm. Alexander set the raiper down, point into the ground, and pulled out a tank and screwed it into the bottom of the weapon. "Time to fry" He said. Alexander pulled the trigger and a jet of flames shot out from the barrel of the firearm.
Kogi rolled backwards avoiding the flames. This guys tricker then I thought He thought to himself as he stood and took a stance.

Ecchymos smiled.
"Sure you do. Gimp."
His smile widened.
"But you wouldn't bring her in here, would you? Because you are just too nice for your own good. And I'm not ruining anything for her. Unless Salem here refuses to make her a new skin. Which he wouldn't."

Chryseis flinched at the second accusation, since he was right.
"Then why hurt him? He did nothing towards you. And why hurt a poor, innocent girl's feelings for no reason than your own sadistic amusement? In fact, you're after her for something, aren't you? Fess up! No person like you would befriend a powerful goddess of creation without soem sort of intent."

Ecchymos' smile faded.
"He annoys me, no reason, and why would I tell you?"
He sighed.
"Look, you're starting to annoy me. Do you want me to make you be quiet too?"

Chryseis squinted.
"Give me Salem back, repaired, and I'll shut up."
She cleared her throat, preparing to talk [and therefore annoy] Ecchymos to death.
"I wwas born on July 17th. I'm a cancer-pisces rabbit, and my blood type is B..."
She continued talking.

Ecchymos drew his finger across Salem's cheek, leaving a scar.
"For every word you say, I will inflict a pain upon your boyfriend."
