Heartache Followed by Heartbreak

[Kazumei]

((I'm going to be pleasantly naughty once again. Should Jon seek counsel for his troubles, this might be quite fun!))

To keep with the facade, he kept with his persona of the good Dr. Hensou. After all, the only one who would truly know him otherwise was the empress and she was doubtlessly elsewhere trying to repair the damage their night together had wrought. Mesmerizing the nurses was easy, and once the small deeds were done, he set to settling himself comfortably in the head doctor's office. It wasnt a hard shoe to fill for him, considering he DID have a medical degree and aside from his ethereal beauty, he was otherwise easily believed to be human. Now if only someone interesting would come along and be his first patient/victim in this new game.

[Jon*]

Jon walked slowly, not really paying much attention to where he was headed, all he knew right now was that he needed time alone. Away from everyone; especially her.

He was beyond angry..not just at her though; He felt this incredible rage flowing through him. He felt like he hated everyone that looked at him..at least right now.

He somehow managed to end up at the doctor's office, he sighed deeply. Maybe he should look in to counselling, it was normal for Firgians to be short tempered..but it felt different then his usual out bursts. He felt like attacking the next person that looked at him the wrong way... he also felt betrayed which made it all the more worse.

Stepping into the doctor's office, some girl accidentally bumped him.she quickly apologized and left. He glared after her, and to keep from running after the blond girl and hurting her, he punched a hole in the wall. It calmed him down some...at least to get his mind of the blond bitch.

Jon walked to the front desk and in a crude tone to the reseptionaist
"I need to talk to someone" she nodded gently and went to fetch the doctor.


*****
"Doctor...there is a firgian man here. He needs to talk to someone." she spoke softly, waiting for the doctor's reply.

[Kazumei]

He'd just been casually reclining in his chair, glasses on his nose, reading away at some medical journals when the nurse came in. Looking over the silver frames, he smiled and calmly closed the book on his lap and sat up in the chair as he faced her. Very well, please have him come in here. I'll attend to his needs immediately. Rising from his chair as the nurse walked out with flushed cheeks, he removed the glasses and put them in his coat pocket while he set the book down on the desk. Moving to grab a patient file to pen out notes during the exchange, he once more returned to his seat and waited for the man to come in the room. Inwardly he smirked with delight, knowing fully well just who the man was that had wandered onto his game board.

[Jon*]

The nurse escorted him into the room where the doctor was waiting. He was having second thoughts for ever entering the building, he should have just kept walking on; But he was here now..in some doctors office.

He took one glance at the man behind the desk, and ploped in the chair across the desk from him. Slouched posture, arms crossed, the anger and rage showing clearly in his face. Jon stayed silent, not really in the mood anymore to speak to a stranger about his personal problems.

[Kazumei]

Kazumei studied the man that walked in and roughly plopped himself into the comfy patient's chair, and his mouth turned up at the corner as he tried not to smile. Holding it in like that wont help. Believe me, you dont want to wind up emotionally constipated by the time you leave here. He tipped his head slightly, dropping the smile though he kept the blanket of security he gave off in order to ease the tension in the room. Care to tell me what's upsetting you? Something must have happened to make you so furious, correct? As if he didnt already know what had the would-be emperor of Magicoz in a fury. But of course, revelations would come much later on. No point in ruining the fun too soon after meeting.

[Jon*]

"I might consider it....that is if you explain women. Their need to lie to everyone they claim to care for. Cause I don't get it" Jon spoke somewhat calmer than he did the the nurse only moments ago.

Jon sat up properly, looking more like a gentleman than a street punk. His breathing was still quite course but then again he was still seething.

[Kazumei]

The doctor let out a chuckle as he reclined slightly in his seat, folding the pad over his crossed legs as he looked over at the patient. Jon's focus was indeed amusing, to say the least. He sighed casually and gave into a complacent smile. Women are naturally fickle creatures, but that is because their minds never seem to relax. They too often think too much about things that really arent at all important and constantly try to make men understand their significance. It's the only way they know how to rationalize their behavior and all it ever really seems to do is frustrate men. He paused a moment to let his words sink in, and considered how to explain women's natural ability to lie. It was something that stemmed from the beginning after all, but to explain it logically took some skill.

Clearing his throat, he remained studying the man before him as he stippled his fingers in his lap and continued his explanation. Now, when it comes to lying, most often it's merely an act of self-preservation. Much as it is with anyone, it's simply part of being human. We have the capacity to lie about anything. The things we lie about are usually insignificant but we cant help but feel the need to excuse our behavior, innocent as it might be. He paused again as he mulled over the conversation, planning out how things were going to go in his head. He rocked himself in his chair slightly as he averted his eyes for a moment, before once more stilling his legs and looking at Jon. In your case it appears as if the woman you love told you a lie undoubtedly under the pretense that she was trying to protect you, yes? He sat up in his chair with a soft sultry chuckle. Such sorts of lies are spoken out of guilt, and in order to ease the ache of such an emotion that slip of tongue was her shield. He lifted his shoulders in a dismissive shrug and gracefully rose from his chair. There could be several underlying intentions she had for doing so, of course. Such as fear of rejection, a weak attempt to protect you from being hurt, shame at the fact she might have enjoyed her actions, or perhaps even to test your resolve to defend her in the name of love. He shook his head and looked down at Jon with an apathetic expression on his face. I really cant say for sure what was going through your lady's head at the time. I wasnt there after all so I'm merely speculating in order to help you think clearly. However the truth of the matter doesnt change does it? In your mind she had no reason to lie, and yet she did. He placed the pen in his coat pocket and held the file to his side, having yet to write anything down in it. No need when he could do it later since the conversation was being recorded to memory.

Looking at the man sitting quietly before him, he tilted his head slightly in consideration. Am I to assume you're trying to figure out why? Why she felt the need to lie? What reason she must have had for doing so? Is that what has you in such a fury? He knew Quinn wouldnt be able to tell her beloved the truth, which meant somehow it had come out anyways. Was Quinn really the only thing that was upsetting him? And if so, why was it effecting him so strongly? Somehow he didnt think things were adding up quite right. And the sudden thought of a certain someone interfering in his game was a bit unsettling. She was moving a lot quicker than expected.

[Jon*]

Jon smirked a twisted grin, sort of like one Kazumei made in the past.
"That actually makes a lot of sense..she always does stupid things like that" he almost chuckled at Quinn's attempts over the years to protect the ones she loves.

"Though I doubt it was a test of my love...considering I don't even know if it exists anymore. I hate being deceived..even if it was in good intentions"

Jon finally looked up at the man trying to ease his rage, a blank look now on his face.
"I know why she did it...she's pathetic and stupid for not trusting me. It's not what she did that upset me more...it's the fact that she didn't think I could handle her cheating. Like I was some child who claims things are his and get upset when someone else touches thier toy."

[Kazumei]

There was no mistaking it now. Sagura had already planted her seed of dark thoughts in Jon. The things he was saying and the way he was handling Quinn's betrayal was so unlike the man he'd heard about all these years. Yes, there was no mistake. Inwardly he smirked. My dear, you are far too quick for me. Seems I didnt wound you nearly enough, and yet you're still not satisfied are you?

Deciding to drop the facade of a good counselor, he eased out a deep sigh and stepped towards Jon. Such a pity. I had hoped you'd make things interesting a while longer, but if you truly feel that way about it, then I dont see why I should go hold back. In an instant he'd pinned Jon to the chair and was towering over him, smiling his devilishly handsome smile over captivating silver eyes. You dont feel as if you love her anymore? My dear boy, you have grown so foolish in such a short time. He let out a sultry chuckle as he leaned close to the man's ear, tauntingly stroking Jon's cheek. Wanna know a secret? He lowered his voice, moving his leg up on the chair so that he was half straddling Jon now, his breath titillating the other's ear. She was quite delicious. I enjoyed making her scream as she rode me. Such a sweet little thing, dear Quinn. He let out a wickedly twisted chuckle and pulled away quickly, ready to strike the man down the instant he tried to attack. Tell me Jon, will you let me rape her as much as I please? He continued to laugh in his devilishly twisted way, his eyes sparking with delight at what was to come. He was looking forward to making the man writhe on the ground in agony. The sight of such a man being so easily corrupted so quickly made him sick.

[Jon*]

Jon never moved or spoke as Kazumei revealed himself as Quinn's lover. It appeared as if the didn't bother him in the least.

It angered him yes..to no end, but he knew he was no match for Zaqqum's king. Especially in the state he was in now. But something inside of the firgian snapped, he saw blood. His eyes turned bright red, and in a flash of light a fire ball shot from his hands directly at the man before him.

Jon moved out of the chair so quickly it went flying backwards, he shot another couple blasts of fire directly at Kazumei.

[Kazumei]

He managed to dodge the first ball of fire that came his way but didnt make it in time to avoid the sudden lunge of the man as he hurled more fire. Wincing slightly from the where the flames managed to singe his right arm a bit, he flung out his hand towards Jon's chest and clenched his fingers like claws before yanking back, making the man's chest tighten and his lungs wrench for air as if they'd been squeezed. He chuckled as he pulled himself up, walking along the wall as he circled his opponent with a cruel smirk on his face. The right sleeve of his coat was burnt through and you could make out the black markings etched in the skin beneath the ruined fabric. The arm his master had tainted so very long ago it felt like ancient history. Interesting. I love how you resist letting me see how my words affect you Jon. Tell me now, do you wish to kill me? Hurt me, make me bleed? Make me suffer the torments of hell for taking your precious Quinn from you? He laughed in his cold heartless way before flicking his wrist so that Jon's feet flew out from under him and he landed hard on his back. What could you, of all people, possibly do to me? Such a pity you dont stand a chance isnt it boy? He smirked, silver eyes glinting in amusement as he continued circling his prey. He could escape at any time, he knew, but why miss the opportunity to torture the man for ruining his expectations by being so utterly pathetic? Perish the thought.

[Jon*]

Jon gasped for air, his eyes never leaving the mans' face. As Kazumei flicked his wrist Jon fell back to the floor, still gasping for air.
Even with lack of air, Jon still managed to chuckled softly, with a smirk
"I won't have to do anything to you...that pleasure goes to your wife"

Jon watched as Kazumei circled him, he sat up leaning on an arm.
"Hell hath no fury, like a woman's scorn"

[Kazumei]

Kazumei threw out his hand in a casual dismissal of Jon's words, releasing him from the painful constriction he'd placed him under. He shook his head with an unnerving chuckle likewise. That phrase is so cliche. You make it sound as if I acted completely on impulse and never considered the consequences. Tsk tsk, you really are such a simpleton. He stopped his circling about the room, standing a few feet away with his devilishly handsome smile on his face, simply watching Jon where he lay. That is precisely why she is my wife and not yours. You have absolutely no ability to handle a woman like her. You speak of her as if I should be afraid, when it is the fact I know she is enraged that delights me. He chuckled in his sinfully delicious way, stepping around the fallen Firgian without turning his back to him and moving towards the medicine locker. You just dont think things through at all, do you? How do you think Sagura found out about my infidelity so fast? Stopping in front of the locker, he turned his right arm behind his back and broke it open, still not taking his eyes off Jon. It was I who told her. Rather cruel of me, I know, but why spoil the amusement of the game by keeping it a secret? He smirked with a deadly twisted chuckle, reaching into the cabinet and pulling out a tranquilizer, keeping it hidden behind his back as he stepped once more towards Jon.

Coming to a stop three feet away, he stared down with his hauntingly cruel gaze of silver, still smiling in his devilish way. Tell me Jon, should I enter your mind and show you Quinn's first night? I'd be delighted to help get you in the mood. Just think, if you hadnt taken your sweet time about it, you would already have fulfilled all your fairytale dreams with her. He let out a twisted laugh at that, confident that even if Jon continued to try and fight back, there was no way he could win. Kazumei was deeply looking forward to reminding the knight of Magicoz what he known as BEFORE he became the King of Zaqqum. The anticipation made his skin tingle.

[Jon*]

"So you know Sagura's every move do you? everything that she will do now that she knows everything?" Jon was curious to know how much insight this lunatic had on his wife.

"Shouldn't you at least consider that she is capable of more than you give her credit for. Women are unpredictable, as I'm sure you already know. Or Are you that smug as to think you know exactly what she would do." Jon spoke as he stood, moving with slight difficulty to the opposite side of the room, sensing Kazumei was up to something still.

[Kazumei]

He laughed outright in a mockingly twisted way at Jon's naive questions. He turned amused silver eyes on the man as he began slinking back away, suspicious of him obviously which was for the best. I'm hardly smug dear boy. I'm just that confident that I know how that woman thinks. We have been together now for over ten years and I knew her in passing as a child as well. To ask those kinds of questions, you really are naive arent you? He smirked and stepped towards the Firgian as he continued to move away, not intent on letting the man go until he was good and ready to. I may not know her exact movements, but I can anticipate the gist of how she'll behave in regards to my betrayal. To be honest, I'd probably be amazed if she went and did something I dont expect. But that's the kind of woman she is, so I really dont see any reason to be troubled over it. Dont you see Jon? The thrill is in how well she punishes me and just how much we can destroy in the process. He let out a sinfully twisted chuckle as he stopped once more three feet in front of the man. For the moment he'd go on playing this game of cat and mouse, but when he grew tired of it the end was sure to be quick. And for Jon's sake, quite painless.
