"What makes you wish that?"
She asked, getting to her feet slowly, and offering her hand.

He grabbed her hand and pulled himself up slowly.
He looked into her eyes.
"Unfortunately, you. And in a small way.." he motioned around him.
"....this place. From the very beginning I wished that Nelthurion had chosen me to take care of you.....I could have made this world such a friendlier place for you. Your.....Mother....she did not want you with me, funny neither apparently did any of the other Riders...it was as if they knew what I would do."

"I am not a good person, not even close. Why would I be the reason you wished to stay in this world?"
She moved quickly, wrapping her body around him, her eyes glinting with a hard light.
"Because of this?"
She whispered, her lips grazing over his neck, his collerbone. Her hands reached up to encircle his neck as she pressed herself into him.
"This means nothing."
She hissed the words, her eyes flashing.
"My body, my love, my actions, are weapons. If you know so much about me, you should know that. I've used seduction before rather than fighting a battle. You asked before how I got to my "figurehead" as you put it? He tried to use charm to fool me, thinking of only that I was a woman. He was a slave to my every whim before long. And he's not the only one."
She was panting with the exertation of her anger, and her words.
"Don't want this world for me. I am a bad person, I am no lady, but a whore. I don't deserve my child, because I've torn infants from the arms of their mothers, lover's from the arms of thier beloved. I am a reason to pity this world, to be disdainful of it, not desire it."

He did not react to her.
"You misunderstand me completely. Your Mother, was my partner. We had many deals....she made the weapons, I used them, she wrote the spells, I tried them out, she brought up the younglings, I trained them. She and I were inseparable."
He laughed aloud, it was cold.
"You still do not realize who I am. You say you are not a good person. You don't know what a bad person is, I have killed thousands, THOUSANDS, of innocents purely because I thought about it. I have destroyed castles by looking at them. You think you are a bad person and yet you know nothing." He pushed her from him.
"And after that they killed Nelthurion, as my punishment. He went insane because of what I had become and they killed HIM for it. And then I killed them ALL. Every single one of them, including your Mother. I killed men and women, young and old. And for years after that I thought nothing of it. And you turned out to be no different. Had the Riders the foresight to destroy me before I became too powerful you would still be with her, and I would no longer have to bear this burden. You think you don't deserve your child.....how do you think I felt?"

"I don't care. "
She said, her voice again becoming the ice it was when they'd first started this encounter.
"Then you don't deserve my child either, is all that stands to prove."
She crossed her arms over her chest, the playful, relaxed self retreating behind her darkness. Her eyes glowed with an innate light.
"This is not a contest, Arthas. Your inner demons are not my problem. Don't tell them to me, 'less you just enjoy hearing yourself talk."
She grinned cruelly.
"As for my mother, she didn't deserve to live. Likely, neither did I, but apparently, someone else was watching out for me."

He raised a hand to strike her but stopped.
"You have no idea who your Mother even was. And my Brother was NOT fit to be with her just as you were not fit to be with her."
He started to walk away.
"It is your choice if you wish your son not to be with me. You are just like your Father always two faced.
He shook his head.
"I wouldn't have looked out for you had you not been Her child. Next time you find yourself in a situation as those you have been in, you will realize just how much help you really need."

Her iron control snapped.
"I AM NOT HIM!"
She screamed, the animal noise pure fury. She flew at him quickly, attacking with her fists. She had brought no weapons with her. Cold tears streamed down her face, her eyes blinded by them. Her body moved with more strength and speed than normal, but she was also more sloppy, not really defending, but attacking steadily. There were no thoughts in her mind.

"No, you are wrong, YOU ARE EXACTLY LIKE MY BROTHER!"
he yelled a cold harsh voice lay behind his. He grabbed Adrianna by the wrists throwing her away from him and using his magic to back himself up quickly, sliding along the snow.
"You are just like him, cold, calculating, manipulative, and destructive. His rage burns inside of you even now. Even with the proper control and training you swing about just like he did when we were learning never paying attention to what you do, never paying any mind to those around you."
A blue glow had started around his fists.
"Always charging in never caring about who he hurt or what he destroyed. You even speak like him, and move like he did, the only difference I can tell between the two of you is that you are far more wild." He crouched low to the ground, the cold voice still backing his own.
"You may be half dragon but you are no better than he was."

There were no more words, nor actions from her. She lay a distance away, breathing shallowly, not hearing, not thinking. Her sudden burst of energy had forced her mind and body into a coma-like state.

He lowered his defenses somewhat, walking towards her.
"This better not be a trick."he spoke mostly to himself.

She didn't move, except that her body withdrew automatically into her human state. Her wings dissapeared, and she shivered uncontrollably.

He walked over to her picking her up with ease.
"Now you see what I mean....helpless....."
he walked quickly to Icecrown and place Adrianna in his own room, setting her on the bed.
The Lich landed on Northrend, and when his feet touched the ground a small shudder went through him.
"My power is not as great here Kane, we will need help."
he smiled as dark blue-green energy swarmed around his fists.

Adrianna shuddered violently when he picked her up, then went still in his arms.

He sat at the side of the bed channeling some of his energy into her.
"I pray that this works." his hand came to rest on her forehead and he muttered in the Dragon language.
The Lich's hands pounded into the ground, and the energy shuddered across the undisturbed snow.
"Rise, my fellow Riders, Rise and fight for me, we go to take vengeance on the one who killed you." as he finished speaking, the Riders, who had been buried on Northrend began to rise from the ground, still dressed in their armor.
"Alright Kane, your new mission. Take this army to the gates of Northrend, do not attack but begin making a camp, we are going to siege the once mighty Icecrown."

"Aye Lord Lich." Kane bowed and walked ahead of the arm of undead riders. "WE MAKE CAMP TEN YARDS FROM NORTHREND GATES!" Kane bellowed at his new army. His armor started to change slightly
