A Life for a Life

Noir narrowed his eyes at the figure in front of him.

"What will it take for you to return my Solis to me?" he asked quietly.

Solis/Tygr burst into peals of laughter. It was loud and grating to Noir's ears – it was nothing like Solis's elegant, beautiful and heart warming laughter. "I told you, your Solis is gone," he said in a sing song voice. "There's only me now, and you'll have to make do with me!"

Noir grabbed the nearest weapon he could find – which happened to be Solis's favourite gun – and pointed it at Solis/Tygr.

"For the last time," Noir warned in a dangerous voice. "Tell me where my Solis is!"

Solis/Tygr laughed. "Oh, that little bit of metal would never be able to cause me any harm, little Noir," he said in a mocking tone. "You do remember that I am a demi god, don't you? Or did you forget everything when you fell in love with my reincarnation?"

Noir said nothing, merely kept his eyes fixed on Solis/Tygr.
