Alex was in the cellar helping Dr.S torture a new monster.

"was that really necessary?"

"no, but it was fun" Alex shrugged pulling out the axe she had just slammed into his skull with a smile on her face.

"I told you I need answers" Alaric knelt down in front of the necromancer

"why would I help you, you have me in chains? this Indignity  will not go unpunished" The necromancer growled and Alaric stood up and turned to Alex

Alex walked in front of the necromancer so he could see her fully

"answer his question or I will show you what a true monster looks like" Alex narrowed her eyes and flashed them a piercing blue with gold bleeding into them, with a smirk on her face. 

The necromancer was clearly shaken by the young girl given that he visibly flinched in his chair and Alaric smirked at his reaction.

"I'd like to see you try my dear" the necromancer tries his best to hid his slight fear. This girl was truly something else.

"Dr. Saltzman" Hope calls entering the cellar cutting Alex off who lets out a breathe of frustration now standing up fully to face her sister.

"Alex?" her eyes widen slightly seeing her sister in there and she turns back to Alaric who shakes his head

"Oh, there you are lovely girl. I was wondering if you'd come visit me again your so much nicer than your sister here." The necromancer glares at Alex before turning back to face Hope "How's your friend, the one I saw you with earlier trying to steal an illicit peek at me?" He grins and Alex goes to grab a blow torch, wondering which part of his face she should melt off first.

"as we speak he's having an emotional reunion with his dead girlfriend. I assume we have you to thank" Hope sends Alex a sympathetic look before turning back to the necromancer

"poor thing. Her spirit was clinging to him like a vine in winter. It took barely any effort. Just a little wrinkle of the nose and poof." Alex slams down the blowtorch heading out of the cell. She and Raf might not be on the best of terms but she should be there for him. God knows what she would have done if he brought back Lexi. So, she's going to help him get though this.

"the way you've treated a man of my stature, you should be ashamed" he huffed

"literally nobody knows who you are!" Alaric yells.

He and Hope both follow after Alex.

....

Alex bumps into Raf as he's on his way to the kitchen to get some tea, Raf probably needed some calming tea and she needed some to help her with the pain.
