Avalanche's Arrival

Kitty gasped and shook her head, "No Lance I'm not afraid of her." She said and stepped past Lance to meet the woman's eyes. "This isn't over." She snapped, and secretly wished she were taller so she could make it sound more intimidating.

Why do I even try? Lance facepalmed and grabbed Kitty back. "It doesn't matter if you're afraid of her or not Kitty! Just let me handle this. You can't fight her with that collar on." He whispered that last sentence to her as he glared at the woman.

The Black Queen smirked and then bent down so she was eye-level with Kitty, "I do believe....that you are., and I would be disappointed if it were" She all but purred. She raised an eyebrow at Lance's reaction and then smiled at Kitty's scowl, "Lance....she's just trying to bait you." Kitty argued. The Black Queen rolled her eyes, "Well, that's not all I'm doing." She interjected.

"So? What if she is? The Brotherhood is where I belong anyways!" He shoved past Kitty and the woman. He looked back at the woman and glared. "Coming lady?" He called back with a wave as he continued walking.

Kitty watched with tears slowly making their way down her face, for the second time in her life she had her heart broken. She looked away from The Black Queen's mocking gaze before the woman sashayed off with Lance in tow. Sobbing, Kitty turned and ran away she didn't even care where she was going, all she knew was that she needed to get away from all the pain....

Lance glanced back as Kitty ran off in tears and sighed heavily.Why am such an idiot?

The Black Queen followed his eye and then bent down to whisper, "You know, all I would have to do is suck every last bit of her soul until all that's left is a dry corpse. You would do well to remember that, before you have to fight in the arena." She said with a smirk before leading him towards the Brotherhood.

Lance regained his composure and rolled eyes. "Whatever. So what's the deal? Why don't you have a collar on, Queenie?"
