Mood: It’s a Wonderful Life, enough said
“Ignis Clover.” Le Cage called out, thought it was hard to tell with someone as stoic and unemotional as her. Le Cage was gifted with an apathetic and dissociated personality. She felt no emotions or pain, making her the ideal match for the god of sadism. Her face was white, porcelain with yellow eyes like her master. She wore a long black and red gothic dress and wielded a large hammer as long as she was. She adorned her long skirt with a linked fence surrounding her legs, similar to a bird’s cage. It was most probably the reason why Jester named her Le Cage but he couldn’t admit it to anyone but himself or his twin brother Harlequin. The two were inseparable, identical twins and complete narcissists they only had love for one another, everything else was just garbage. The person that Le Cage was talking to was one of the warriors of discord, Ignis. A woman who was subjected to experiments by her husband Relius and became a killing machine, a Fluctus Redactim the husband mentioned. Ignis was the mother of two children, Carl and Ada, Ada was also used in an experiment and was made into a doll identical to Ignis. Ignis regretted not being able to protect her children but with the war she was promised the release of her children, her daughter’s body back and her son’s sanity, which was lost after his beloved sister became a machine. Ignis turned her metallic head towards Le Cage, blue unblinking eyes faced the artificial causality weapon. Ignis wore a hat similar to the adorning headpiece of an iron maiden with a ring in the side. Her entire body frame was red except for her chest which was white. Her arms were too long and reached where her ankles used to be and her fingers had been turned into deadly hooks, she could not hold her children without the possibility of injuring or killing them. The only thing that remained of Ignis’ identity was the name etched into her core and the color of her hair. A beautiful blonde that looked like champagne. Silence filled the air, Ignis had just been reminiscing about her children, about when her son finished reading his first book. He loved reading, especially mysteries, he wanted to be a detective, he listened to old jazz music and acted like an old twentieth century private investigator. The boys bullied him, while they wanted to play soccer, he stayed under the trees reading his favorite stories, and finding out the criminal way before the detective did. However now her son, who was only nine suffers from schizophrenia because of the experiments Relius put his family through. This helplessness made Ignis very upset, and it made her irritable to other people, especially those who do not understand her plight. She was told if she took one of the warriors of harmony, the one named Selena, her family would be healed. Her request was simple but her friends protected her. Ignis’ destined enemy was a young girl named Mana who thought that women are above men, but she did not understand the frightening powers they had. She was strong but not strong enough. Ignis uncurled her iron hands and turned her body around to face Le Cage. Ignis was easily the tallest, over seven feet tall. She towered over Le Cage a mere sixty four inches.
“What is it you desire from me at this time?” Ignis asked and turned back around to the sunset, she was currently in the realm of her creation, the Deus Machina. She watched the moon pass in front of the gaping hole in her castle. “Can you not see that I am recuperating?” Though a machine Ignis had emotion, strong ones in fact. It made the warriors of harmony gasp, they could not believe that the machine that Ignis had become was once human, and a mother as well.
“We are preparing for the next battle, all beings that are non-human or non-artificial causality weapons are prohibited from the meeting. You have been requested to come.” Le Cage stated with a monotone and Ignis shuttered. Then in one swift motion Ignis spun around and smashed her long metal arm into Le Cage’s face, her fist being much larger than Le Cage’s skull sent her flying into the wall.
“How dare you call me non-human!” Ignis stated. “You can run and tell your master that since I am human I would not dare to go to the stupid meeting, they can lose their battles for all I care. I only have my goal to think about, I can’t go play nanny for the gods, blasphemy.” Ignis said as she released steam from her shoulders, the price she had to pay for moving so quickly, far beyond her normal parameters for standby mode.
“That is not an option, you must come with me.” Le Cage said as she pulled herself out of the wall and fell to the ground. She brought out her giant hammer. “I must now bring you by force, it is the master’s orders.” Le Cage made a stance and her hammer had a purplish hue to it. Ignis snapped her body and her claws extended.
“Fluctus Redactim Ignis, engaging combat mode. Exterminate target immediately. I will not go with you and if I have to show you by force, by god I will.” Ignis said and they jumped into combat.
