<spoiler=My God>I had to read throuh 5 pages... 5. Freaking. Pages. That took a while.
The cloaked figure laughed, "You can keep your powers. Its difficult to explain, but its like this." He sat down on a chair on th eother side of Curtis, he crossed his legs over and sat down comfortably.
"You see, there are two ways to steal powers. The first, is you get their full strength power, but you have to kill them. The other way, is to keep them alive, and steal half their powers, its good to use on Allies." He rolled up his left sleeve to show a large black tattoo on his arm, "I have already done this with Jason, he is still at full powers, while I am at half of his power with that Dragon crap. I need another pact with you so I can have full Dragon powers"
He smiled again, the smile of his face being the only thing to break the innocence across it. "So, what do you say? Be my ally?"
Curtis shifted uncomfortably in his seat, "I suppose If Jason does trust you... and we want the same thing."
The figure laughed, clapping his hands together, giggling like a little girl. "Excellent" He stood up quickly, and glided over to Curtis, his feet dragging on the ground behind him. He grabbed his arm, and showed him what he needed to do.
He put Curtis's arm against his, just under the tattoo from Jason. "He burnt this into me, so I gained his fire power. I need you to turn you arm into a Dragon, then press it hard enough against my arm so I gain a mark."
Curtis gave a weird look but complied, he turned his arm into the dragons claw and dragged it across his arm, cutting deep into the flesh. The Figure brought back his arm, and the armour quickly began healing over the wound, sealing it up, but still leaving 3 large scars down his left arm.
"Perfect" he purred to himself. He rolled down the sleeve so it looked normal, then laughed to him. "By the way, my name is Amaranth, its good to be allies"
<spoiler=OOC>I am going to have fun with this guy...
