How the mighty have fallen. Chloe had been warned of this coming to pass, but the power-consumed vamipress didn't pay heed to the original Argus' warnings. But she must have known somewhere, someplace, even in the farthest reaches of her mind, that this would come to pass.
Argus paced back and forth along the damp shores of the island he and Chloe sought refuge to. It was empty from the looks of it, and therefore deemed safe for the time being. He'd been at this repetitive action long enough to wear a path in the sand, and stopping meant he'd only resume. It wasn't just the frustration of having lost a seat of power, but the internal struggle that scratched within. The original Argus was trying to break through, to regain himself, and it was enough to cause a sense of restlessness in the hybrid. |

"Argus. Argus! ARGUS!!" Chloe screamed out his name after sitting up. Ripping out her eyes and crushing them within the palm of her hands in another vain attempt at ridding herself of the images in the void of her mind. Weeping openly as she kept seeing those eyes stare her down and the hoards of undead come in a sea of blood. She would have given anything, ANYTHING to make it all go away. Her hands reached out hoping to feel the gentle touch of Argus' as she continued to cry on shore. The once powerful Empress of Jherrazad has been reduced to nothing but a scared child thanks to the Queen of the Netherrealm.

"Argus. Argus! ARGUS!!"
An irritated growl ripped from his throat at the panicking vampiress. The overwhelming desire to sink his fangs into her skin, to drain her dry, was fortunately brief for the anxious hybrid when she screamed again. His pupils expanded, he shook his head, blinked his eyes, and trudged over to her.
"I'm here."
Argus sat down next to Chloe to let her grasp at him, or whatever it was she wanted to do. He couldn't help but stare at her in pity. Much like he, she was willing to tear herself apart if it meant escaping the horrible curse that was the Nightmare. It was a tentative move, but he put his arm around her shoulders in an attempt to comfort her.
Strange how he was the one trying to calm someone down when it was once him on the other end. |

Once Argus was within reaching distance of Chloe she held up her hand and swiped at his face as if she had razor sharp claws that threatened to tear off his skin upon contact as anger burned in her eyes while she got up to her knees. "You did this to me! This is your fault!" In a single instant the Chloe that had matured over the course of a year was gone and in her place was the Chloe of yesterday who's hatred for Amoura knew no bounds. "I'll kill you for this." Chloe lunged at Argus with all of her strength and her teeth bared at Argus. "I'LL KILL YOU!"

Argus' head whipped to the side after Chloe's claws sliced into his face.
"You did this to me! This is your fault!"
Argus moved his jaw around, cracking the joints and brushed his fingers over the healing wounds. That attack was entirely unexpected, as was her hostility. How was any of this his fault? Didn't he warn Chloe of what would happen? Didn't she see this coming?
"I'll kill you for this."
Wait, what?
"I'LL KILL YOU!"
Chloe's claws would only swipe through air since Argus' body turned into a bat and he flew beyond her reach, or what he thought it was. So, let's add a PMSing vampire to the list of problems right now. Fantastic. |

It was funny how Amoura and Argus always transformed into a bat when they were feeling evasive. She couldn't see the transformation as her eyes still hadn't regenerated but she could smell and hear it. Not as good as say the Blind Assassin Fukari, but good enough to know where he was in the air allowing her to lunge up with the intent to snatch Argus out of the sky. "Come here!"

Come here!
Argus let out a series of "eeps" and "eeks" whilst trying to avoid her deadly grasp. Alter ego or not, a woman as pissed as Chloe was still a very terrifying ordeal. Or maybe it was the incidents entailing a very, very, very angry Raiza that left him shaking in his boots at the prospect of another woman out for his blood. Literally. Funny how a being capable of taking down an entire planet could be reduced to this state. But he had to get over this fear sometime.
"Get-" he flew past her head, "a-" then in front of her face, "hold-" over her head --briefly brushing against her hair--"of yourself!" in a blur, he transformed into his humanoid form and attempted to tackle her to the ground. If successful, he'll have her arms pinned down while sitting on her stomach. |

"Oof!" Chloe hit the ground hard and looked up at Argus who now had her arms pinned to the ground and and sat on her stomach. "Let me go! Let me go!" She screamed at him. Hurling curses and blowing spit at him as she fought to break out from under his grip but he was stronger than her physically. "Let me... Let me go..." Chloe continued to struggle hopelessly until she was tired down and could only glare up at Argus.
