Aiden's knees fell to the floor with a crack, body swaying forward at the pull of gravity. His face made contact with the cold stone ground and he nearly choked on his own blood. He could hear her steps, the muffled clicks against the ground. He clenched and unclenched his blood coated hands, she was heading for the door. " ...I...impure. " The raven gave a rancorous noise - like that of hollow laughter, it's feathers ruffling but it made no move to stop the unicorn.
Aiden scowled, that damned bird. Breath hitching as he pulled himself up upon his elbows, grunting at the pain as a spell slipped past his bloody lips, the cage gate slamming shut and locking itself as the puppeteers skin twitched at the use of black magic. He feared Liam, feared what he'd do if she escaped more than having that beast tear into him.

Famosity jolted back as the door slammed itself shut in front of her. She stepped back uneasily, trying to keep both the raven and man in her sight. Determining the bird wasn’t making any moves towards her, she lowered her head to point her horn directly at Aiden once more as a silent threat. The light of the lantern now glowed partially red being blotched with his blood. “You’re just full of poor choices,” She muttered. “Quit while you’re ahead. Yes, this is as far ahead as you’ll get.” She regarded his bloody form on the floor, but there was no trace of emotion behind her eyes. He was lucky to have her trapped at all, growing cocky about it was a huge mistake.

Aiden moved to pull himself up painfully, hand sliding over the rugged stone and to the substance that seemed to stain the ground where this - so divine - creature walked. a lukewarm, and luminescent blue liquid. Tea had mentioned this shit to be rather... helpful, but he wasn't going to risk it, nor was he going to get aid from a monster like her. Wiping the substance against the fabric of his own tattered pants the puppeteer caught sight of his enemies cold gaze. Her glare was anything but serene, and he was definitely going to regret pissing the beast off.
" I'm just full of bad ideas. " He stumbled to his feet, regarding Famosity with a leveled glare," I'm going to be testing my luck then. " The raven was eerily silent, red eyes trained on the unicorn, the bloody man egged her on, " If you think you can hit your mark a second time, try again. I dare you. "
He needed her away from the door.

Famosity shot a glare towards the raven. Something didn’t feel right, but she was in no position to not react. Looking back at her target, she figured he was expecting her horn again. She charged forward once more. In the midst of her charge, she allowed her teeth to sharpen back into canid fangs. Raising her head before her horn could come in contact with the man, she opened her jaws to catch his right arm in her mouth. He was stupid. Thinking dumb luck could outweigh the natural fate of a unicorn. She wouldn’t miss. Tossing her head up, she spun her body around and let go of the arm. Aiden was slammed into the door of the cage. She tasted blood on her tongue, but didn’t particularly mind it. She pawed at the floor challengingly, as if signaling she was about to charge again.

The raven let out a cacophony as soon as her teeth ripped into the soft skin of Aiden's forearm. unusual black oily blood covered anything in its predestined path. His ears were ringing as soon as the puppeteer made contact with the metal, his back cracking in places it probably shouldn't and more of his own blood running down his stained chin. " S- shit..." He hadn't expected teeth..... He should have - It wasn't the first time something so innocent had tricked him. The smaller let out a strained laugh, parted lips gasping for breath as he relinquished the seal, pulling himself slowly up against the bars, blood slick hands making the process harder, he put the rest of his weight against the structure. Half lidded eyes and that slanted grin as the door creaked back in protest. It's voice ringing as if the bloodshed never took place, this conversation another simple beginning - but Aiden new better. the same cry, the door shut but no longer a feeling of safety, even if he stood on the other side. Those eyes followed him - and for a moment - He knew what she was feeling - The locked clicked shut, that didn't change the fact of the noose shadowing his neck. " .... maybe another time...Unicorn. "

The unicorn stood up straight as she watched Aiden exit the cage. Her features went back to normal as she calmed. Her eyes never left him as she stood perfectly still behind the bars. The blood had begun to dry on her horn and droplets of it still decorated her skull. She said nothing to the man, just quietly watched. Honestly, she hadn’t expected him to have enough strength to get out, but knew this battle was now over. She made quite the impression. At least everyone would know what she was capable of after one look at him, even with her in this state. The lantern swayed in front of her, its light shining through the drying blood. Not today, she thought, but maybe next time.
