Two days…two days and Sage was not pleased. All she'd been allowed to do was sit. Not stand, sit. Riddick was going a little overboard with this whole thing. He wouldn't let her do anything, hell half the time he carried her. It was getting ridiculous. As of the moment she was sitting on the throne with the cat beside her looking just as pissed off as she was. The lights were low because she'd had a massive head ache earlier and she just didn't feel like turning them up yet.
"Sage," Scales said walking in followed by Vaako. She scowled at the head of the guards, he was helping Riddick and watched her like a hawk.
"What?" she snapped.
"The Elementals are..," he began.
"Send them in," she growled. At least this way she would have a legitimate reason to hurt someone, plus Riddick was in the war room.
"But Sage…," he began but quickly shut his mouth at the murderous look on her face, "Nevermind." he quickly left and a moment later five Elementals walked in. Aereon was in the lead with a tall, wiry man who looked no older than Sage. He had kind features and short blonde hair that fell over his bright blue eyes that were studying Sage closely. The other three were a tall, black haired woman with a long face a piercing grey eyes, a tall, dark skinny man with a shaved head and gently chocolate eyes, and a man who was Sage's height with red hair and sharp green eyes.
"Bitch," Sage greeted her mother causing the others to break out in hushed mutters until Sage's sharp eyes slashed across them.
"Lena, these..," Aereon began.
"Sage, my name is Sage. I already told you that whore," she snarled and the cat stood up growling at the five intruders, and his pelt began to stand and turn red. These people were unwelcome and they were making his mistress uneasy and unhappy. He took one step forward but she stilled him with a hand on his back. He looked over his shoulder at her with his bright silver eyes before sitting down. He wouldn't jump until she allowed it, but when she did their flesh was his.
"Sage, this is the counsel," Aereon said motioning to the others, and a cruel smile crept onto Sage's face as she faded out of her chair and shifted around allowing herself to become half visible.
"So these are the ones who wanted me dead?" she asked as she moved among them and looking at their faces carefully, "Hmmm, and what do they want now? To finish the job? Well, go ahead if you want, but I will be the last one standing. Oh, lookey here the golden boy. How's life been treating you Marcus. Having fun sitting in a room calculating all day?" she purred solidifying beside the blonde, who looked at her sadly.
"Hello sister, you're looking well," he said evenly as she flowed back onto the throne.
"I bet I am seeing as I'm suppose to be dead," she laughed, "But pray tell to what do I owe this honor?" she asked as she began stroking the cat's red hide.
"We have come to apologize. It was wrong of us to sentence you to death as an infant," the dark man said stepping forward, "I am Sol, the Earth Elemental."
"We've come to make peace," the woman said stepping forward and bowing slightly, "I am Aqua, Elemental of Water."
"And I am Galen, Elemental of Fire," the green eyed man said respectfully, "We've come to seek your help. A new evil threatens all of the human race and our profits tell us that you can stop them." Sage stared at them for a long moment before bursting out laughing.
"You and all of humanity can go fuck yourselves," she replied laughing. The other five Elementals stared at the woman lounging on the throne with one leg thrown over the right arm of the great chair, and her dark eyes full of dark laughter. Sitting there with her raven hair flowing around her face and over her shoulders with a moon cat sitting beside her she looked everything of the Element she was as she sentenced the human race to death.
