Malcolm found himself wandering the halls of Fort Kyllion, no real destination in mind. His mind was far from the metal and concrete of the base, legs guiding him only by instinct. Perhaps that's why he found himself closer to the barracks than he would normally allow himself to go, and why he didn't really notice the increasing group of rank and file soldiers gather behind him. Suddenly, he bumped into one of the larger recruits, drawing back to himself and looking up at the man. "Excuse me." He said, moving to slip around him, only to be stopped. The soldier pushed him back, and he was immediately grabbed by several of the soldiers behind him, the group immobilizing his arms and his legs. The brute before him stepped up, readied a punch, ad rammed his fist square into Malcolm's stomach, causing him to double over as best he could and grunt out as the air was pushed from his lungs. He panted a few times, long red hair flowing over his eyes, before he looked up, spitting out a bit of blood and grinning. "Got another one in ya?"

Down the hall, one of the newer recruits saw the beating taking place, and, scared for his life, he ran to the nearest elevator. He was squirming the entire ride up, and when he finally reached the level that the Fang had their quarters on he sprinted through it until he found Lia. 'M-Miss White Fang! C-C-Come quick! R-Red... Red Fang... Group beating! Blood!" He panted out, his skin a pink from him being both scared and exerted.

With the Orchid otherwise preoccupied, Lia had gone relatively domestic, fashion magazines strewn about the common area. Tailored outfits lay against the backs of the furniture, and while she held a sketch book on her lap, a magazine in one hand and a highlighter in the other, she nonetheless managed to completely maintain control of them all when the stunned recruit entered. Eyes suddenly flashing like death, she moved everything aside, repinning her hair as she walked over to join the boy in the elevator. "Where at?" She asked him, calm, collected, watching him evenly and trying to show through actions rather than words that he had nothing to fear.

Once she had joined her in the elevator, he pressed for the floor to the lower barracks, squirming in discomfort at the ride down the seemingly endless elevator shaft. Once the door opened he just pointed the way, wanting to be anywhere else than on this level for what was to come.

The soldiers had started rotating whose turn it was to beat on Malcolm, the larger man having been followed by a tiny, thin woman who bounced around like a boxer and used him as her personal punching bag. Blood trailed liberally from his nose, which had been broken, and his mouth. One of his teeth lay on the floor in a small pool of blood and spit, and it seemed like the crowd of would-be beaters was growing by the minute.

A sense of cold fell through the hallway, as though something was sapping the heat away from the air itself, chilling everyone to the bone. Lia dismissed the recruit with little more than a quick nod, stepping forward with deliberate movements, her robes playing peek-a-boo with her pale, chilling skin. "And who thought this would be a good idea, hm?" She asked, voice like a viper in the cold of the artic, immune to its own power and immortal because of its resilience. Light glowed at her hand, the beginning summons of Eclipse, though she did not yet bring it out.

Malcolm felt the chill in the air, causing him to smile briefly.Those wailing on him turned to face her, and the ones holding him dropped to the floor and started backing up. Mumbles of whether or not they should try and take her too filled the corridor, though malcolm simply chuckled weakly, waiting for the inevitable reprisal Lia was about to inflict.

The lack of an answer only sped up the process, and as her skin paled to an all but peeling blue, cracking across the surface, she lifted her hand, raising a wall of ice behind them. Flicking her wrist at each possible exit, she did the same, eyes narrowing, deadly and precise. "Do not make me repeat myself." She spoke again, eyes fixed but largely focused on Malcolm, though it was hard to tell for anyone looking at her.

From the back of the crowd came a taller man holding a length of rope, the end already tied like a noose. He didn't say anything, just planted his foot on Malcolm's back and held him down as he fitted the rope over his neck, his intentions obvious.

The cold blazed into near hypothermic levels, and without a word, Eclipse had formed in her hand, flying through the air directly for the man.

The man flew back, the keyblade lodged firmly in his shoulder blade. Malcolm grinned as he felt the pressure fall from both the rope and his back, coughing weakly in response.

"Now," she stated, stepping forward, not needing her weapons when she was a weapon on her own, "Who is first?" Lia kept moving all the while, not caring that her small, slim form itself seemed unassuming, not caring that it was unlikely that she could so much as lift Malcolm on her own.

Almost all at once, the soldiers broke off and started to run, terrified of the demon marching through the halls. From a side hall, Freya stepped out into the stampede of soldiers, and when she caught a glimpse of Malcolm, her hair burst into flames, causing them to run from both her and Lia. Malcolm managed to roll onto his back, coughing roughly and splattering blood up into the air.

"Pursue," Lia said simply, kneeling down to roll Malcolm onto his side, rubbing his back softly. "Brand them and then get a healer." Her eyes still maintained their deadliness, but the heat had begun to return to her skin. "And do be quick about it." Eclipse still remained rooted in place, pinning the guy to the nearby wall.

Freya nodded, running down the hall after the fleeing soldiers, an unnatural heat following her presence and the smell of smoke and the sound of screams soon coming from down the hall. Malcolm looked up at her with a bloody grin, mouth the same color as his hair. "You an angel?" He asked in a soft, hoarse voice.

Her eyes rolled, but she knelt down to kiss him softly, tears hiding at the rims of her lids. "You need to stop getting yourself into trouble, Red."

"You should just keep me on a leash." He quipped back, letting out a soft groan as a soft light began to spread over his body, small mote of green energy infusing themselves into his skin and causing him to sigh in relief.

She rolled her eyes, "Then I'd hitch you to the bedpost," she whispered, breathing in his ear before standing and making her way to the wall. "Now," she began, blue eyes turbulent, "what do we do with a disagreeable, murderous subordinate?"

Malcolm rolled onto his side and stared at the man, his eyes glowing lightly as he continued to heal himself. "Take him to the top of the fort, break his legs, and disable the elevator."

A weak chuckle followed, "Mercy me, I think someone is losing his creative touch." She pressed the blade further into the man's shoulder, "I think a breakage of the fingers and a broken lock on the door would be even more useful, there."

The man cried out in pain, struggling against the blade and trying to get away. Malcolm, to his credit as a magic-user, pushed himself to his feet. He glared at the man through his bangs, taking slow steps towards him. "He's lucky I don't have my sword..."

Lia held a hand out behind her, signalling for Malcolm not to come too far forward. "He's lucky I can curb my temper."

Freya came skipping down the hall, her hair trailing embers that disappeared soon after falling from her trail. She looked towards the man pinned to the wall, pursing her lips in disdain. "He reminds me of the bad soldiers." She said in a disgusted tone. Malcolm continued to heal his injuries, letting out several groans as broken ribs healed themselves and as his tooth slowly grew back in his mouth. He ran a hand over his jaw, glaring at the man. "Do what you see fit... I don't want to see his face again."

Lia looked back at him, eyes still holding a faint glow, hands folding and unfolding, antsy to hold the grips of her blades. "As I see fit?" She inquired, brow raised, eyes focused on him. "He attacked you, our Fang leader, and blatantly not only disrespected you, but made an attempt on your life." Her hand reached over, thumb and index fingers pressing against either side of the man's throat as she pressed forward, enough to start a dizzying sensation from blocking the blood flow.

Freya turned away quickly, shaking her head and covering her mouth from a brief spell of nausea. Malcolm watched with a neutral expression, arms crossed over his chest and waiting for the man to start struggling from lack of oxygen. The soldier starting shaking and gurgling, trying to draw breath despite the pressure.

"I would see him burn," She said, receiving no verbal response from them. "However, logically, it would do as all far better to bring him to trial." With that, she released him, only to encase his hands in frozen ever-crystal the moment he brought them close enough.
