Land of Darkness
Salem's Citadel
Training Room 1
With Cinder.
An arcing slash of fire moves across the black screen, quickly followed by another. There is a brief beat before two more fiery arcs slash across the screen. An irregular circle of flame bursts outward from the center, revealing behind the black a panting Cinder.
She is in a large, empty room. Behind her is a darkened arched hallway. On either side of the arch, the walls of the room have a low ledge the bear several burning white candles. Four Beowolves approach Cinder, moving in a semicircle formation. Cinder swings her left arm at them, sending another slash of fire. It cuts through the middle of all four Grimm and they disintegrate away.
Cinder pants again, still upright yet taking a breather. She does not get long, as heavy footsteps approach from her left. She gasps and looks in their direction. A Beringel leaps into the air, ready to deliver a blow to her with its fist. Cinder, however, pulls back her right arm and pushes a ball of flame right at it. It, too, disintegrates.
As its body disappears, Cinder falls to her knees, breathing heavily.
"Enough." Salem said.
Salem walks forward while Cinder continues to struggle for normal breathing.
"I thought you were the girl who wanted power. Did you lie to me?" Salem asked.
Cinder winces on the force of Salem's question before looking upward. Turning to face Salem, Cinder clearly shakes her head negatively.
"Then stop holding back. If you wish to master your new powers, you must –" Salem began until she was cut off.
Salem is cut off by the sound of heavy doors opening. On the opposite end of the stone hall, a sobbing Tyrian enters. Tyrian falls to his knees once in the room, both hands flat on the floor and his head bowed.
"I'm sorry. She'll forgive me. Pleeeease." Tyrian said softly, raising his hand to his chain as he begged towards the end as he bowed.
"Forgive me..." Tyrian finished.
