Are you afraid of the Darksoul? [Part 2]

[[OOC: This right here is required reading if you're going to tag. OOC organization is here

For too long the firstborn son of Satan's demonic soul had been trapped, denied his rightful control over Daimon's body. Now, thanks to Mei-Xing, he was finally free. The next course of action was obvious- he would have to take control of one of the beings on this ship. He could start with the vulnerable and move on to the more powerful. He had to act fast before that fool recovered. Fortunately he needn't go very far. The city was full of potential victims.

Now, now. Who to possess first?

NOW she knew where she'd seen the trident before: the voice, in fact, was something of away that this was definitely not Eva. No, this was that demonic whatever thing that was loose on the ship.

She was being possessed, AGAIN, just like with the Yeerk. she couldn't let that happen to her.

So Katara took a long breath, pulling out her water from the bottle and bending it to wrap around Eva tightly.

"I can't let you do that."

"What are you going to do, deliver another sanctimonious speech about unity and trust until you bore me to death? Rain some earnest tears on me?" The sarcasm is all Eva, but under her own will Eva would never speak to Katara like that. The vindictiveness is entirely Darksoul.

She struggles against the water, working the trident out to point it at Katara. "I will not be contained! I've spent seven years restricted by others and it will never, never happen again! Now get out of my way or suffer my wrath, child!"

With that, she fires a burst of soulfire at Katara.

Katara gritted her teeth. That hurt a little, but she knew that real Eva wouldn't have said it. This thing, whatever it was, was making her say it, and now it was making her do something that would get her hurt or even imprisoned.

"No thank you," she said. "I'd save them for my friend. You're possessing her, and I'm not going to stand for it. You get out of her now. I won't have her being made to do things again! The Yeerks were enough!"

She moved out of the way, but had the water trip the woman nonetheless: she was thankfully quick enough to be multi-tasking. She'd need to think fast, though, to keep Eva contained.

That hits a nerve, deep down, somewhere."Do you think I came here looking for your pity, girl? Did you expect me to come crawling and begging for whatever scraps of sympathy you were going to toss my way? I have power now! Ancient force courses through me! I won't be a victim anymore, not to Yeerks or to self-righteous teenagers and their parlor tricks!"

She trips on the water, but before she hits the ground she's levitating, pulling herself back into a standing position and firing more soulfire at Katara.

Katara narrowed her eyes. "I'm talking to HER, not you! Even if you have powers and she really wants to take down that Yeerk, it won't make a difference if she knows something made her do it. I'm the one that cares about her being a victim, you just want to carry out her vengeance. It's not going to happen!"

Uh oh, she could fly. She was also shooting some kind of fire at her too. She was lucky enough to dodge it, and now she decide to do something she KNEW would make Eva mad.

That water Eva slipped on? Turned into something like a whip and hit her, hard, right in the back of her neck.

Ooh, if only Master Pakku could see her now, he'd wince, remembering when she did the same to him.

Eva shrieks in rage, pain and panic. There are still old scars there, from the restraints on the portable Kandrona. Like her ears, it took her more than a year to control her recoil response to being touched consensually there, much less attacked. For a moment she cringes, before baring the trident again. "I've had enough of you. I've had enough of your insistence that I'd be better a passive wreck than the mighty being I am now. You'll regret impeding me, brat! You'll regret the day that bleeding heart of yours decided to play hero!"

More soulfire, and Eva keeps a few inches off the ground to avoid slipping on any ice Katara might put down. Now's she's aiming for Katara's hands, figuring that would be the best way to harness Katara's bending.

"You aren't mighty, you're targeting someone for the fun of it. And as far as being a hero, I'll tell you what I've told everyone else a thousand times: I'm NOT a hero, I'm just doing what I think is right!"

Which is why Katara is not going to be standing still, not for a moment. She has every intention of making sure that Eva is going to be contained, and though she has no idea how the others are being taken care of, she had no intention of having them do it to Eva. When she has the right moment, she blows out, and the water in the city starts to wrap around Eva, clinging to her like tentacles and starting to harden. she made doubly sure that the trident was frozen with her.

"Sorry Eva," she said, "but I don't want you to get hurt."

For all her frantic thrashing, Eva's trapped. The most she can do is continue to scream and rage at Katara, anger and fear building with every minute she can't move her body.
