Forgive, O Lord,
my little jokes on thee...

Bast was silent as she said what she did, and looked her, before looking at Zeke. He then smirked as well, piecing together what she was 'saying'. He then crossed his hands over his chest and shook his head.

"Fitting." he said.

"A very 'special' 'lamb of God', right here for the slaughter." he commented with a chuckle.

"And he can't fight back, either." he added, as Zeke moved slightly, but only ended up flopping onto his back.

"Right here?" he asked her.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

Jordan nodded.

"Right here." She agreed before looking to Zeke.

"She made sure she was a couple of feet away from him first.

[b]"Hey! Ezekiel, c'mere."
She called.

"Let me taste what keeps you alive."

Zeke said nothing, merely getting to his feel slowly, as though his body was fighting against him.

"Hm." Bast mumbled.

"Either his body is in really bad shape right now, or his DNA is literally fighting against his mana and soul." he commented.

"...useless." he then spat.

Zeke managed to rise to his feet, and slowly plodded towards Jordan, one uneasy step at a time, until he was not but a foot away from her. And there he stood, awaiting further instructions.

Jordan just grinned. It was dark, it wasn't her, and it was promising trouble.

"Perfect." she said simply before handing the camera to Bast. Once he accepted it, she looked the angel up and down.

"On your knees." She stated. After he'd dropped to his knees, and none too gracefully, she stepped up, bent over a bit, and sank her fangs into his neck.

She took a drink, before retreating with a cry of pain. Bast could literally see something glowing within her, and it wasn't hard to tell that it was painful, if not outright excruciating.

"Huh!?" Bast exclaimed, before looking between Zeke and her.

"What did you DO!?" he yelled at Zeke.

Zeke said nothing. Did nothing. Just remained there. Motionless.

Bast growled, before looking at Jordan.

"What happened!?" he asked.

"The hell is that glow!?"

"His..." Jordan started, but couldn't quickly due to the pain.

"... his mana is fighting me." She told him, sounding more like the kind, flirty, college kid she'd been before getting the camera.

"I knew this would happen. I didn't think... Something got in the way." She added, beforesinking to her knees, hurting way more than she could actually vocalise.

Bast approached her quickly, and bit his lower lip.

"Damn it." he cursed, though her tone seemed to strike something in his core.

"..." he was silent, before looking over at Zeke again.

'...Jordan...' he thought, before looking back to the girl.

"What do we do NOW?" he asked her.

"What can we do about this!?"

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

Jordan was silent, trembling from the pain.

"I... I don't..." She started.

"Batty... Help... please..." She said quietly, pain in her voice, and still sounding like she had before. Zeke twitched as he heard that, heard the voice, heard the plea within it.

"I don't... I don't know how to stop the pain." She admitted, sounding innocent as she used to, and almost as if she was near tears.

Bast quickly took her in his arms, and wasn't sure what he could do right now. He also didn't notice that Zeke had rising to his feet once more. The archangel nephilim then stepped closer and put his hand on Jordan's chest.

"Hey!" Bast exclaimed... until he saw the glow inside of Jordan was moving to the hand.

"...this will hurt..." Zeke said.

"But endure it." he told her.

"..." Bast was silent, as he realised that Zeke was pulling the mana out of Jordan's body.

The pain was obvious, but she didn't cry out. She remained silent.

After Zeke finished, she let out a breath.

"Th... thanks Angelboy." She said before pausing.

"Shit!" She exclaimed, scrambling out of Bast's arms.

"I'll be back. Don't start fighting again!" She half exclaimed before bolting off. She had to go to talk to the head of the place, and she was off without her camera.

For the first time she'd received it. She was heading off without it.

Both Bast and Zeke were silent and stunned for a moment as she ran off, with Bast still holding the camera. They looked at each other, before shrugging and and both sitting down where they were.

They were told not to start fighting again, so they would sit there and do... nothing.

Though Bast had to wonder about the camera in his hands.

"...she didn't take it..." he mumbled.

"Wait, what is WITH this thing...?" he then wondered aloud.

Jordan raced up to Hal's office, feeling what she new was caused by the camera. As she got into the office entryway, she saw that Arryn wasn't there. She wasn't too surprised, as she was reasonably certain she hadn't seen her for... quite awhile by that point.

She hurried up to Hal's office door proper, and starting banging on it, frantically.

"Hal! I need to talk to you, PLEASE!" She called through the wood, not sure if he'd hear her... or even if he was in the office at the moment.

Hal was sitting in his office, and had just touched the crystal he had hidden away, when he heard Jordan banging on the door, and practically PLEADING to speak with him. He was silent for a moment, before clearing his throat.

"Coming!" he shouted back, getting up and walking over to the door.

He opened it, and saw she looked... panicked and exasperated.

"...what is it, Jordan?" he asked.

"What's got you so panicked?"

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"The... the lockdown in here. I'm guessing it's because of soul fragmentation." Jordan commented candidly.

"While I have time of some clarity, I know the cause, I know what is going on, and I'm the fucking reason it's happening." She told him quickly, talking a hell of a lot quicker than normal.

"I don't... I don't know how to stop it." She admitted.

"And I know it's going to cause problems. I know I'm the cause. I just... Just..." She continued, sounding near panic.

"I'm sorry... I just... I'm sorry, I didn't know, and I know that there's no way I can fix this. But... " She paused, looking to him and looking exactly as one who was begging for their life might look.

".... Please..... kill me. She... she's working through me."

Hal was silent for a moment, processing this.

"Firstly, no." he said.

"I won't kill you. I cannot bring myself to do that." he told her, when the reality was he just couldn't do it. Full stop. That was outside what he could actually do, with what he was.

"Secondly, HOW?" he asked her.

"How is this all happening?" he asked further.

"How the hell is she operating through you? Seriously."

"The... that camera." She toldhim honestly.

"Every. .... every photo, it takes a fraction of the soul of anyone within." She continued, sinking into the chair there. This was far different from who had come to talk to him not that long ago, even completely different from who had taken his and Hollie's photos.

Hell, she seemed more like when Hazel arrived.

"I don't... I don't know where the fragments go, but... but the camera is emptied every few days." She told him honestly.

"And it... " She paused, twitching slightly, wincing in pain. It was getting hard to keep the clarity, and she knew that, Hal knew that... he could see it.

"Everyone here has fallen victim a bit, at least. Some more than others."

"Damn it." Hal muttered.

"The camera. I never would have seen it." he said.

He then paused for a moment, looking at her.

"...you seem to have some clarity." he then commented.

"Though very temporary, I'm guessing." he went on.

"Can you think of a way to turn this around?" he asked her. "While you still have your sense of self?"

Jordan was silent for a moment, trying to think about the answer to that question. She couldn't, was just hitting more and more walls as it seemed that everything was starting to catch up agian.

"I .. I can't... " She told him after a few seconds.

"I don't know... I can't think of it, I just... I can't... I want to, but ... but I can't." She added, her voice trembling slightly. He could hear how her clarity was fading in her voice.

"...." Hal was silent for a moment, before nodding.

"Right." he said.

"I'll think of something. I promise." he told her.

"We'll find a way to get through this. Now that I know what is causing all this, specifically." he then added.

"With more info, we're better prepared."

Jordan nodded.

"I..." She started.

"I know." She added.

"I know. But... I can't..." She started to try to continue, before shaking her head.

"I can't... I just... I can't..." As she spoke, she brought her hands up to her head, grasping her hair, trembling slightly.

She was trying so hard to fight it.
