James' eyes rolled into the back of his head. The body bind still working on him. A small gagging noise escaped his throat. Now his body was slowly working out of the body bind and you could see a sign of his body convulsing.
Amanda was a little creeped out by this and got up and backed up a little.
James stopped. He opened his eyes, which were once again cold. He easily slipped his hands out of the chains, which seemed to have become fluid. He looked at Amanda and smirked, "You haven't died yet? Well I will have to change that..."
Amanda stopped right in her tracks and looking him dead in the eyes and said. "Well see about that now won't we?"
"Oh it shouldn't take long..." the cold voice said as James pulled the chains of his legs. He stood up and approached Amanda smirking. He held out his hand, "Just grab my hand... nothing more..." his eyes looked trustworthy but they flashed with a look of urgency from James.
"No! Why would I do that!?" she asked like he was a stupid git in which he was. Why did he want her to take his hand, she wondered. Her feet stood firm on the ground and didn't move a muscle. She stared in his cold swirling eyes forever.
"Fine then.." James stepped directly in front of her and pulled her arm roughly, "I will just make you.." he snatched something sharp out of his pocket and held it to her arm. He slowly sliced down her palm and his own. "If this works... you should have part of me in you also. I would have preferred Miss. Clome, but you will do.." he grasped the two bleeding palms together and began muttering something in Latin.
Amanda winced in pain and tried pull away but his grasp was too strong. "I would prefer you take me anyway. Don't hurt my friends. I don't care about me.," she said and she winced in pain again.
"Well in a couple of minutes," he said looking up from his spell, "You can hurt your friends yourself." He continued muttering in Latin as the blood mixed together.
Amanda stared him down but didn't say anything for a while. She tried not to show the pain that was taking over her. She stood there and thought of something to do but she didn't have her wand.
Tigress suddenly shook her head. She brought her hand to her forehead with a gasp, surprised by the sudden, pounding headache, and even more surprised when it suddenly went away. She gasped again when she realized the agony in her arm. "She glanced around the room, a look of worry and confusion in her eyes. "Ummm, why do I feel like I just did something really stupid?" She said shakily, still trying to figure out why everything seemed suddenly different, no one was in the same place they had been just a moment before, at least not from what she remembered.
