{Xe fakes a gasp of shock, dramatically putting a hand to xyr chest.}

Ohhh nooo, however could that have happened?

{Their wretched voice is laced with sarcasm and mockery.}

{You hear the faint clattering of shackles and chains against the ground. A vampire BEAST prowls around, his tail swinging behind him. He's hunched over like some kind of animal. Even in this posture, he stands quite tall in comparison to you. It looks like xe hasn't seen you...yet.}

[[They dragged themself behind a tree, laughing quietly.]]

ohhhohohohoho look what you’ve gotten us into now-

[[And then, wings flaring out-]]

ME?! HOW IS THIS MY FAULT?!

[[All said in a cheery tone, a bright smile on their face despite the numerous injuries.]]

[hes-in-a-cage]

Careful walking backwards like that. Something could cause you to…trip.

{His tail swings to land on the ground behind you.}

[hes-in-a-cage]

Oh, but you don't sound particularly sure about that, do you?

{He steps towards you more. It's unclear if he's trying to be threatening or is just unintentionally doing so.}

[hes-in-a-cage]

Hm? Is something wrong?

{He takes a few steps towards you, looming over you. They almost look as if ready to pounce on you.}

[hes-in-a-cage]

Yes, I suppose I am.

{Xyr right eye and the secondary eye under it both twitch. The overlapping voices annoyed him somewhat.}

[hes-in-a-cage]

{They stop in their tracks and slowly turn to look at you. Red blood drips from his mouth. Xe wipes the blood, now standing up straight. He looks down at you.}

Oh. Hello...?

[hes-in-a-cage]

It doesn’t make me feel any different, but I appreciate the effort.

{He takes another deep breath. It’s all too tempting to lash out right now.}

For your benefit, I think it’s best you leave for now. I feel like I need to kill something.

{You see a figure standing below you. He’s relatively still, but you see him trembling slightly. Their clothes are covered in old bloodstains.}

Well, well. Just who might you be?

{His voice is completely calm, but his body language says otherwise.}

(The monster of fear stood there, just now noticing the new presence. Black blood steadily drips onto the forest floor from its neck and it slowly lifts one metal claw towards him. The end of each claw is coated in red.)

(It doesn’t respond, I mean, how could it?)

[hes-in-a-cage]

{He takes a breath, trying to calm himself.}

I had a cat. I buried him somewhere in the woods, and I can't find him at the moment.

But no. It's okay. It's fine.

...It's about time I moved on anyway, right?

{They sound more like they're trying to convince themself than they are talking to you.}

[hes-in-a-cage]

Oh! I almost forgot something. Haha.

{He looks around at the forest, more specifically at the ground. He looks as if he's trying to find something.}

Oh dear, where did I...

{Their breathing hastens slightly.}

Where did I leave him...?

[hes-in-a-cage]

Frankly, I don't blame you. I would've used that chainsaw on you if I got the chance.

You know, Perfectly, I misunderstood you at first. I was terrified of you and thought you were trying to kill me, but you're...quite alright.

[hes-in-a-cage]

{Xe takes a moment to think before realizing what xe said.}

Oh, I do apologize, I didn't mean it to come out that way.

You are...incredibly forgiving, which can be somewhat...good, but the extent to which you are is...somewhat concerning?

{He tries rewording his remark to sound less insulting, even though it still fails to sound sincere.}

{You see a figure standing below you. He’s relatively still, but you see him trembling slightly. Their clothes are covered in old bloodstains.}

[hes-in-a-cage]

Oh, my. You really are...how do I put this...........pathetic.

{He doesn't say it like an insult, but more like an unfortunate truth.}

{You see a figure standing below you. He’s relatively still, but you see him trembling slightly. Their clothes are covered in old bloodstains.}

[hes-in-a-cage]

I understand if you don't want to be friends or further interact in the future. I did try to kill you, after all.

[hes-in-a-cage]

I believe I never told you my name. I'm Tyrant.

{He offers a bloody hand for a handshake.}

[hes-in-a-cage]

Stop. It's fine. I...

{He huffs and crosses his arms like a toddler being forced to apologize.}

I'm not mad at you.

(It doesn’t respond, I mean, how could it?)

[hes-in-a-cage]

Something within me feels...different. There's this urge to destroy, hurt, and kill. It's overwhelming.

{He looks at it, realizing what he said probably wasn't helping.}

Don't worry. I won't hurt you. Although I don't feel remorse for what I did earlier, it's the least I can do after you helped me through...that.

[hes-in-a-cage]

Ah. Alright then.

{He stands up.}

...I don't remember being this tall.
