"Well, you look–"
"FANTASTIC!" Nexus almost jolted out of his chair as the woman roared.
The calm look disappeared. The relaxed features melted away. In her eyes was now a gleaming look of purebred excitement- almost bordering on madness!
"Fuck!" she howled; "I feel like I can take on the sun right now! What the heck is in this drug mister? What did you give me?"
"I\'m sorry," Nexus smiled mischevously; "But that is trademar–"
The sound of the chair violently sliding backwards cut off his placid voice. The beautiful woman shot up from the chair in a blitz of silver hair and and white sleeves;
"I can feel it," Eyes cackling with excitement, she lifted both her hands up to eye level and gazed at them in awe;
"I can feel it in my body. It\'s in my hands right now, can you see it too? Can you feel it? Tell me now mister Ni Yang! Is it just me? Am I losing my fuckin\' mind here?"
Nexus rose to his feet; "It\'s the drug. Go on, try something, let it control you. . ."
Her elbow jerked up, and she thrust the length of her arm forward into space. She opened her palm slowly, and gazed at it with eyes wide open in mild wonder. Instantly, the temperature in the room dropped even lower and the lighting seemed to ebb in the background.
Focusing on her open palm, a strange breeze suddenly picked up her long silver mane- as a cold, blue flash of lightning began to spark in her open palm. The energy cackled aloud like cracking of thunder. Selina\'s eyes glistened like two ice crystals suspended in space as the flashes of blue lighting began to solidify.
Nexus watched askance as it began to branch out- like the icy veins of an icy snowflake.
Suddenly, a triangular body of ice, ascended, rising from the base, vaunting towards the top like a pyramid, surrounding the skeletal framework of this phenomenon with a hard body of ice.
Suspended in the air, barely a few inches above her open palm, was the hovering form of a ice prism- roughly the size of a close human fist. It shone radiantly with an ice blue brightness, reflecting on Selina\'s face with a resplendent glow.
Nexus found himself struggling to breathe- but not in awe. It was like all the moisture in the room had been sucked out, and was actively feeding the glowing ice crystal in her palm.
She gasped;
"Holy heavens," she stared at it with as her eyes sparkled with unbelief; "It\'s so accurate, so perfect, so- bloodless!"
The voluptuous white haired woman slowly lifted her hand upward towards Nexus;
"What do you think?" her full chest heaved with palpable excitement; "How much would you stake on me being able to impale you with this ten inched prism?"
Her eyes flashed dangerously. The corners of her mouth twitched in a visibly unstable manner.
Nexus looked at her cautiously;
"DO IT." he declared boldly.
"What?!" there was an echo of sweet surprise in her exclamation; "What did you say?"
Nexus slowly rose up from his chair- keeping his eyes on the dreadfully icy sharp creation that was suspended in her open palm.
"You\'re eager aren\'t you? You also want to test its limits? You want to know if it\'ll be possible to impale me to the wall with that vaunted ice spear?"
As he backed up a couple of inches, Selina\'s piercing blue eyes burned into him. The sweeping breeze blew into her thick long silver hair behind her. She closed in with one step forward;
"You think I won\'t do it?" her cold voice rasped into the already cold air; "You think I won\'t drive this spear head into your chest and watch it break through your ribs- not stopping it till it has drilled through bits of your flesh and punctured your beating heart–"
Nexus\' calm features tensed.
That was a gory fuckin\' mental picture she had just painted!
She said it with a chilling ease, like it was a kink, like it was a fantasy she was toying with. His eyes glinted with a hint of fear as he eyed the cackling blue ice prism hovering in her open palm.
It suddenly looked like an actual spearhead.
With no enchanment-
With zero incantations-
The white haired beauty had created it on the spot- literally out of thin air!
Nexus began to re-evaluate his position significantly. This wasn\'t fluke. It wasn\'t just the elixir. No, this woman was master. There was no questioning it!
Nexus\' weight shifted carefully as soon as he realized she could actually kill him where he stood- if she truly wanted to, .
Sure, his Heavenly Flames were superior in magnitude and in sheer destructive force. But there was no way his wall of fire could make it in time if she hurled that ice spear head straight at his heart.
"What\'s the matter mister Ni Yang. . ."
Her cold voice echoed out of her glowing face like an oracle speaking out from deep within the earth;
". . .changed your mind already? Do you not want me to DO IT anymore? Do you want me to stop?"
Nexus\' sweat somehow evaporated in the chilling cold. He gulped, and his tongue twisted in his mouth.
For a brief stretch of time, that terrible pause dragged on painfully as Nexus seriously considered his chances of getting out there alive. He was too far from the window to escape this crazy bitch. The door was a no go.
Shit. He was strictly at her–
Suddenly, without any afore warning whatsoever, the dark shadows around her eyes melted away. Her long silver hair stopped its gentle flapping, and succinctly, she lowered her outstretched arm. As the homicidal look in her eye disappeared, the ice prism in her hand suddenly broke into a thousand pieces- becoming one with the atmosphere.
The sense of relief on Nexus was instantaneous.
His chest collapsed as his lungs contracted inside him- sending out a long deep gust of repressed air.
Selina on the other hand looked like she had just emerged from a dream. On her perfectly round face, the blood vessels began to flow freely beneath her pale white skin, gradually giving her back her slightly rosy red color.
Her the gathering mist in her eyes returned- displacing the icy blue color. She recoiled her hand, inching it closer and closer to her face, looking at it in wonder as if she could not still believe she had actually done that.
Looking deep in Selina\'s eyes, Nexus could tell even without words.
She was taken in.
Completely.
Eyes still gleaming with awe, and face still replete with shock, she sank into the chair behind her. She ran her hand through her long hair, and trembled slightly when the residual cold touched her scalp.
"You good?" Nexus dipped his head towards her, as he watched her regain herself.
"Give me a minute."
"Take all the time you need," he himself heaved himself onto the chair, masking his own relief.
