beautiful chaos

chapter 6

The stark white of the room was giving ragna a migraine. Her head was hurting and her stab wound was throbbing. Still bleeding but she couldn't put pressure on it due to her hands being cuffed to the table with anti-magic chains. For once she was grateful she wore black.

She leaned back in her chair with a sigh. Refusing to show any sight of pain. She could easily get out of here if she wanted to. They all knew it but curiosity made her stay. Wanting to know just how far the overgrown baby that was called Manning would go.

If anything the isolation helped with her headache.

According to the clock on the wall above the two way mirror across from her she had been her for over an hour. She knew this tactic all to well. 

Ragna could feel the pain in her side every time she moved even the smallest bit. She had to admit she was starting to get annoyed. Her head snapped to the door at the sound of yelling down the hall getting closer to the interrogation room.

The door slammed open nearly making her jump in surprise. Only to roll her eyes when the elf boy came in glaring daggers at her from across the room.

"So are you not going to say anything or are we just timing who can go the longest without blinking".

Nuada only glared harder.

*********************************

" I thought this was supposed to be an interrogation not a staring contest" hellboy joked watching the pair from the other side of the two way mirror with the rest of the team.

"Why does he get to interrogate her again. Shouldn't someone else do it" hellboy asked.

"He found her first. That and he's angry at her for some reason".

****************************************************

Ragna way quite happy to flare at him until he broke. Only not right now. It seemed so much more fun to make him angry.

"So do you always annoy witches like this or is it just me" she asked smartly. Loving how he cracked and glared harder.

"Where do I know you from" he asked losing his patience with her."I know I've met you before". He slammed his hands on the metal table in front of her trying to intimidate her. Only receiving a roll of her eyes in response. "ANSWER ME".

"figure it out yourself" ragna taunted."there your memories after all". She turned her head too the wall behind her in surprise. The feeling was unmistakable. Magic , her magic. "Siphon" she whispered to herself , turning back to face him slowly.

Nuada noticed the confusion on her face as she glanced between him and the wall. He looked at the blank wall seeing nothing.

"Wanna know a secret about magic"she asked him. Officially done with the conversation."always be the smartest person in the room". With a flick of her wrist the lights went out covering them in darkness.

Nuada jumped at the feeling of rough heavy metal encasing his wrists to the table. He jerked away in surprise.

The door slammed open as the team came rushing in to see what happened. As the lights came back on the all were left starting at the empty chair where the Viking witch once was.

"What the hell?"hellboy asked "where'd she go".

The scream down the hall took all of their attention away from the interrogation gone wrong. As the others ran to the scream Abe quickly uncuffed nuada before following.

As they followed the source of the scream it was as if they had stepped into a storm. Wind as sharp as razor blades like a tornado. In the middle of it all was Lisa screaming from fear. Liv was next to her trying to calm her down.

"WHAT THE HELL IS ALL THIS"Manning screamed.

"What the hell did that witch do"hellboy said over the wind. The ground began to shake under them as she screamed louder.

Then it was gone.

As if a switch was flipped.

Lisa cried into her mother's arms. Scared at what she had done.
