Casimir Castle

"Just be yourself, dad." She smiles.

"You have no idea how pleased I am to hear you say my name again.." He hugged his daughter as he took her inside.

Vanessa hugs him back, walking in with him.

She was gone...

He could feel it deep in him. They had taken his research, fit the pieces together and...

gone... empty once again.

The Nuels would pay with their lives for robbing him of his little girl again!!!

Suddenly, a window breaks, and Jack is on Casimir immediately, tightening his hand around his throat.  "You will pay for what you have done.."

"What I have done?! Restored life to my daughter!! Loved her enough to return her from the grave?! I ask you, what sin have I committed?!"

"You drove another beloved daughter out of her body and nearly killed her!!"

"AND YOU RUINED MY DAUGHTERS SOUL FOR GOOD!!! You know how I extracted my daughter's soul?"

He glared into Jack's eyes with hate filled fury,. "I'll show it to you personally, and I'll make certain the extraction is extremely slow..."

"Oh, no... I can't let you get ANYWHERE near my family!! Which is why you must DIE!!"  Jack squeezes his throat the tightest that he can.

Casimir was struggling for both breath and to reach for a small rune he had in his pocket. This rune was one of his own design, after studying many ancient texts. This was the tool he used to extract Vanessa's soul just moments before her demise. Due to the haste of what he needed, he couldn't perfect it to be painless but for this use, it was a blessing in disguise...

Jack takes Casimir with his mind and slams him to the ground, making sure to break a few bones.

"Gahhh... is unsophisticated violence all you know?!" Casimir yells out as he finally got out the rune. He needed Jack to be close to apply it to him and rip his soul from his body like a pearl from a very tight oyster.

"I am a scientist as well!"  Jack throws some of his poisoned daggers at Casimir.

Casimir got stabbed by them and yelled out in pain beyond comprehension but lunged for Jack to press his small square stone rune to his chest, "And now... let's begin the extraction of your soul!"

Jack's eyes widen, trying to get away, not knowing how fast that it works.

"You may leave now!! But just know, soon I'll collect your families souls, so you know what it is like to watch your family be just out of your reach forever!!! I'll keep them like trophies on my shelf!!" The mad alchemist tiraded to the scientist, his mortal foe who robbed him of his daughter.

"You'll die first!!"  He can't be afraid to kill anymore.  It's because he hasn't killed the threats that his family is always in danger... He throws another dagger, aiming for Casimir's heart.

The dagger contacts with his heart, causing the pain to fall down with a loud thud.

DId he have a pulse? No.

Did he breath? No.

Jack stares at Casimir for a long time.  He took a life... Jack... He took a life... It's unexplainable how he feels, but... But at least his family is now safe.  He walks away, not bothering to take his dagger with him, going home to Sally.

He remained unstirred until he was sure Jack was gone...

Once he was positive, he rose again pulled the knife out from his heart. One of his dark arts experiments had worked to perfection, effectively creating a shield of dark magic around his heart to allow him to control his heart and protect it without threat to himself.

And now Jack thought him dead...

And the game begins anew...

Sally is locked in whatever room, crying her eyes out, her head in her hands.

Upon returning, Casimir took great pride in placing Sarah soul on a shelf, as a trophy would be on display.

He watched the girl pound futilely at the glass. It was a eerily soothing sight to see the one who banished his daughter into oblivion in such a predicament. 

But now, his attention turned to Sally and the room he had kept her in until she returned. Naturally it was the most accomodating room in his house. Just because she was bound to him by extortion didn't mean he couldn't be hospitable.

Sally is still crying, feeling as if she'll never be happy again.  At least my children are safe...

OOC But not for long...

He unlocked the door and stepped inside, "Hello my Sally..."

Sally looks up at him, tears streaking her face.  She doesn't say anything.
