Vivienne looked him in the eyes. "How did I verify such a ridiculous question? And besides, werewolves aren't the only thing that howl."

Artemis laughed. "Actually, your defensiveness just verified it right now."

Vivienne smiled. "You're insane."

"Of course I am. If I wasn't, I wouldn't be me. Therefore, I'm glad I am. But it's still true. I find werewolves fascinating, truthfully. I've only killed a few...Wait, that came out wrong." Artemis frowned.

"You've killed werewolves?' Asked David to the man behind him. "Come now, you'll have to tel me the story." He carefully picked his way to the cave, still weary of more tombstones or, possibly, the thought occurred to him, an open grave.

"Ahaha! I'd like the hear the story as well!" Vivienne said, laughing. Axelle hadn't caught any of the conversation, so she was confused. "Whaat?"

"Don't worry," Artemis told David. "Both of you are fine, unless you attempt to damage, hurt or obstruct anything that is of my interest." He grinned maniacally, then turned to Axelle. "Nothing, m'dear. It's all fine. I do wonder when we'll actually enter this cave...aren't you as exited as I am?" Artemis smiled wickedly.

Vivienne smirked and pulled Axelle into her grip. Axelle let out a shriek, but Vivi grinned and held a firm hand to the woman's neck. "Like her?"

Artemis' hand went to the hilt of his katana out of instinct. "Let go of her," he bristled. "Actually...I don't think you would do anything to her, would you." Artemis moved close to Vivienne, smirking.
"Just let her go."

Axelle's eyes widened as Vivienne's grip tightened. "You sure?" She asked, smiling.

Artemis drew his blade. "Now," he snarled. "I won't take that chance, I guess. Let her go, or I'll tear her from your bloody carcass."

David let out a low, rumbling noise. "Clothe your blade, fool." Richard came up behind him, worried. Richard was not paying much attention, but he'd back David up, within Hell itself. "Vivi, let her go."

Axelle gasped as Vivi pushed her away with a grin. "I wasn't gonna do anything." She sang. "Just playing around. Sorry Axelle."

Axelle smiled. "That was kinda fun, actually."

Artemis' eyes glinted again. "Of course you weren't." His lips curled into a snarl. "You're interesting, girl..." he hissed. "But don't play with me. As you said, I'm unstable." Artemis looked away from Axelle, paling with his anger. He pushed past David furiously, muttering as he did so. "At least it shows I was right about you, werewolf. Something to be proud of, right?" He stood a ways from the group, silently raging.

David furled his lips, but said nothing. Richard though, spoke. "Kasam, is there any chance of anything that'll eat us in there?"
