"All about love, huh? ACK-" I silence the fool quickly by partially crushing his throat in with my knee, my swords still pointed and ready to strike. Glaring at him while he struggles to breathe, I look up at Aether and Galactal who both had their weapons at the ready. "Want to grill him, you two?"

Aether snorts before his voice echoes in our heads. "Literally or figuratively?" I roll my eyes with a snicker and shake my head. "Figuratively," I answer him before glaring down at the hooded figure underneath me. Only slightly shifting so I wasn't crushing his throat, I move my knee to his chest and press down, keeping him pinned. "So. Are you going to not be snarky with us, or will you cooperate and answer our questions?"

A pained cough and scoff escapes the dark teal cloaked figure. "And why should I listen to a fox, you, or mister glitter over there? I already told you anyways. I am Void." His reply was met with me applying more pressure down onto his chest, making him hiss at me. "Well sadly, we already know Void, so stop trying to copy him and insult us if you wanna live. Clear?" My hissed words are accompanied by me reminding him that I had blades ready to strike him down.

"Ngh- Fine! Hot-headed lady. I'll answer your questions. Although I already made it clear who I was. I have no clue who this other Void is. I'm clearly the first."

I roll my eyes, glancing to Aether. With a silent padding forward, Aether comes over then stares down at the pinned figure. "And how old, might you be?" His question echoes in our minds and I feel the man start from under my knee, obviously taken aback from suddenly hearing Aether. Yet regardless, his sneering voice answered. "About 5 or 6 eons."

"We are all 7 eons. Including our Void. So you are far from the first Void." I can't help but grin at the facts that Aether presented, knowing that he was correct and just proved this man incorrect. Hahaha- I love Aether's personality sometimes. He truly is a unique fox.

A shocked sputter comes from the man and he starts to rant about how he was the first and "I deserve more respect than to be dissed on by a four-legged mutt!" amongst other things. Galactal just chuckles, while Aether proceeds to stab his diamond twin-blade into the ground right beside this man's head, making him jump in reaction and try to throw me off of him.

I keep him pinned as Aether proceeds to give him a hefty lecture on the differences between a Vulpes and a Canine. A smile crosses my face as I just feel this man squirm to try and escape the lecture, but can't because of me.

This goes on until Aether finishes and the man under my knee is just laying there, irritated and given up trying to get me off of him. After a moment of staring at him, Aether speaks again.

"Ready to answer our questions now?"
