Everything to Lose-Everything to Gain (Accepting)

[Zahzi]

Astaroth was too busy staring at his hand. For the past seven-hundred years it was permanently being burned. Now, it looked normal...  

[Randomly Gone Insane]

Something then suddenly touched the palm of Astaroth hand.
Hael's.

"...Feels better doesn't it?" She asked, tilting her head to the side.  

[Zahzi]

Astaroth didn't even notice Hael, he was still fixated on the hand.

((Last post. Honest. ninja ))

"...Zero..." Hael said as she continued to stare down at Astaroth's hand and her hand. "I think it's safe to let him out now." She added in after a few moments of pause, her hand slowly wrapping around Astaroth, just big enough to wrap around his palm.

"You know your going to get killed that way right?" Koji asked, looking over Haels shoulder.

Iraaka was sitting close to where the cage was when it appeared. She jumped with a small scream.  

[Randomly Gone Insane]

"I don't think so." Hael said, looking back at Koji with a closed eye smile. "I think if he wanted to kill me, he would have done it by now. He's had more than plenty of opportunities." She argued, before looking back at Zero.

"...You will release him, won't you..?"  

[Zahzi]

"...Alright..." Zero said moving toward the cage.

"...Are you sure this is a good idea?" Omazige asked, behind Hael.  

[SoujiAtsumi]

"We're all going to die because of her...." Koji murmured as he moved to sit down ext to Iraaka.  

[Randomly Gone Insane]

"Menos has the Brutes under control, so there is no need to fear his power over them." Hael answered plainly, looking back from Zero to Astaroth.

"And if he suddenly snaps back into reality and his violent ways, you and Zero are close enough to help." She said with a reassuring tone, as she started swinging her's and Astaroth's arms as she continued to hold his hand.  

[Zahzi]

"...Alright..." Omazige said, holding onto the handle of his claymore.

The cell was then opened.

". . ."  

[Randomly Gone Insane]

"...Omazige, I know you're holding your claymore... Could you stop?" Hael groaned, slumping over before sitting straight up again, looking up at Astaroth with a smile.

"Come on... The others don't trust you, but I got a good feeling about you now." She said, giving him a closed eye smile as she began to walk backwards, slowly pulling him out as well.  

[Zahzi]

Omazige did as asked.

Astaroth looked at her before standing up, looking at the others, still silent.  

[Randomly Gone Insane]

"...Are you going to say something?" Hael asked, raising an eyebrow. "You've been awfully quiet for a while now..."  

[Zahzi]

"...For Seven Hundred and Eighty Seven years, I have been under the pain of fire. How would you react?"  

[Randomly Gone Insane]

". . .Well, I'd say something, but you are still technically the enemy, so you might kill me..." Hael nervously laughed after a few moments of pause.
