Dropping in. Literally. (Axelia/Open)

[Richela Zenith]

Richela Pushed a fly-away piece of hair behind her eyes. She was faded to the entry of Axelia's Chamber. She knew how to get in, of-course but respected the privacy of others...sometimes. She knocked and waited but she had a feeling Axelia had flamed out to somewhere. Opening the door (OC: Not sure what her entrance should be), she entered and after taking just a step she triped over something on the floor. Picking herself up, she looked around for the reson to why she tripped.

Seeing a black box on the ground, She wondered what it was. Her curiousity kicked in and she picked it up. It felt cold, ice cold. Studying it closely it seemed to have little markings on it. What is it?

[Axelia Moore]

Axelia flamed into her chamber. She had surfaced for minutes after hearing about the good Charmed Ones being in San Francisco but it had been busy. It normally wasn't that busy when she went but she usually surfaced during the PM. There had been millions of people walking on the streets and the sun kept getting into her eyes. She was glad to be back in her chamber with dim lightning and no people....
That's when she noticed the disturbance of the emptiness in her chamber. She saw the youngest evil Charmed One Richela Zenith there. A greeting was about to escape her lips as she walked towards the girl when she saw what her friend was holding. Glaring Axelia stormed towards her and snatched her black box back from Richela.
Axelia whirled back around almost completelly sure her long curly hair had hit Richela's face and walked back towards the back of the chamber she placed the box on the table and turned back around to continue glaring at Richela.
"Is there any other piece of my possesions you'd like to investigate? Or do you actually have a reasonable reason you're here?" said Axelia her voice controlled enough so it was at a reasonable level but you could still hear the anger.
Then she sighed taking a deep breath and inwardly scolded herself for losing her temper so quickly. Without any apology, since Axelia was definitely not one to give apologies, her face lost it's anger and she looked back at the girl and in a careless and seemingly bored tone of voice said, "Anyways, hi."
It wasn't that she was being rude by talking to Richela in a bored tone of voice, she was her friend after all. But she spoke to other's either in a demanding, superior, or angry tone of voice. She didn't see herself superior to Richela and wasn't demnading or her, and had lost her anger just a few seconds ago so her voice sounded bored though really it was her normal way of speaking.
Axelia looked at the throne towards the center back wall of the chamber that was practically mocking her at being Cole's queen. There was no other place to sit in her chamber seeing as she didn't use to find the throne as a bad place to sit at until now. Axelia did feel like sitting but not that bad. That's when she smirked at Richela and said, "You can sit if you want."

[Richela Zenith]

Richela watched as Axelia grabbed the box, whatever it was, out of her hand. Picking up the anger Richela raised her eyebrows."Hi. Well not exactly, but you had it lying here like rubbish," she replied, not in a bored tone like Axelia but in the emotionless one she normally used when she wasn't angry or annoyed. She wanted to hold back a question but her want for knowledge didn't let her. "What is it?" she asked.

She listened as Richela offered for her to sit, but she didn't feel too. Richela didn't like to sit down much, she felt useleess when she did. She preferred to be standing, or moving about instead of seeming lazy. "No thanks, i'm good," she said, advancing further into the Chamber. It was cold, so much like Axelia as Richela knew her. Her eyes stayed on the black box in Axelia's hand though. She longed to know what was in it.

[Axelia Moore]

Axelia raised an eyebrow at Richela's excuse to looking at her black box. "I hardly think you should try to tidy up my chamber, Richela," said Axelia. "My rubbish can stay on the floor if I want it to, can't it?"
She narrowed her eyes when Richela asked what it was. Richela's curiosness hadn't annoyed her before until now when she acutally had something she didn't want to share with everyone. Imagine that, everyone in the Underworld hearing about Axelia's possesions. They'd think she's gone soft. No, absolutely not.
"It doesn't concern you so what does it matter?" said Axelia with a touch of coldness in her voice.
When Richela siad she didn't want to sit Axelia smirked and said, "I guess you don't want to sit on the throne of one of the most power demons in the Underworld?" Axelia walked over to her throne and sat down although her body tensed at the thought that lay at the back of her head saying that it was Cole's Queen's throne and then she added, "Too bad."
Then Axelia thought that maybe that the reason for asking Richela to sit on the throne was a bit mean since she hated the Source as well but Axelia inwardly shrugged the thought away; no one said the Queen of the Underworld was nice, even to her friends.
Axelia saw that Richela's eyes were still on the black box and she sighed in irritation. "It's a family heirloom, now will you stop? Curiosity did kill the cat...though I hardly think you'd care about killing an innocent animal," said Axelia annoyed. She knew that her friend liked killing which was so different Axelia. Axelia didn't like killing but at times found it necessary it was a difference she had from the rest of the demons-the one that were pure evil at least. It didn't matter as long as she didn't show it too much though.

[Richela Zenith]

Richela's eyes narrowed very slightly "Well you didn't strike me as an untidy...careless person. It tripped me so I picked it up." At the coldness in Axelia's voice, she could tell it was something Axelia would want to keep hidden desperately. She watched at Axelia went to sit on her throne, and moved over nearer to the table with the box on it, but in a way where it was not obvious. She wasn't going to just grap it up and fade away, that would display two things she hated- disrespect of privacy, and cowardice in fading away.

"Well, in-case you forgot i'm not a normal demon either," she replied, when Axelia said she was one of the most powerful demons. "And in a few years my power might pass yours, in case you didn't know. And you know very well that I don't like the Source very much." She wasn't even sure why they disliked the Source, she just knew Roxanne did so she did too. Axelia and Richela had actually become friends when Axelia was angry at him for some reason. "And if I kill innocents every week do you think i'd hesitate for a cat?"

[Axelia Moore]

Axelia gave Richela a challenging look at her next comment. "And how much do you know Richela?" asked Axelia and leaned foward in her throne. "No one, knows me very well, surely you must know that." Axelia leaned back in her seat and crossing her legs, "But no I'm not an untidy, caless person."
It was true, if people knew Axelia they would know that she wasn't pure evil. They would know her mother had been good. They know that she was scared of fire though she had fire powers. They would know she had only sought this much power in the Underworld to survive. And they would possibly possibly know that deep down she was in love with Cole. But no one knew that.
Then Axelia started to wonder why the black box had been on the floor anyways. She hadn't left there, she wasn't careless or untidy. Axelia decided to let it go...for now anyways. If she found out anyone had been in her chamber without her permission and had been going through her possesions...
When Richela said she wasn't a normal demon Axelia just shrugged, she wasn't one to be threatened by other people's power. But when Richela said in a few years her powers might surpass her's she struck a nerve.
"Excuse me? No, your powers are gonna surpass the Source's not mine," said Axelia. "I'm close to or as powerful as the Source and I'm way younger than him, you think I won't get powerful? No, my dear, you'll never be more powerful than me, maybe as powerful as me but not more. Only with the help of your sisters will you be powerful than me, and without them? What then huh?"
Axelia smirked when Richela asked her if she would hesitate for a cat. Axelia actually liked cats, she didn't know why. It's not like she was ever gonna get one because that was just ridiculous but she liked them.
"No, Richela, I strongly doubt you would hesitate for a cat," said Axelia in a bored voice. But then as an after thought she added, "I don't know why you would kill a cat though, I hardly think they'd be a threat to you."
Axelia had a feeling that if Richela didn't know, she suspected that Axelia didn't find killing as pleasurable as other demons. Sometimes Axelia wondered if people would get the wrong idea if they found out though, it's not that she felt guilty in it, it's that she found no humor in it at all.

[Richela Zenith]

Richela smiled coldly- it was the only way she ever smiled. "No, you remain a mystery to us." Where did Axelia come from? Did she have siblings? Who were her parents? Was she full demon because she had alot of firepowers? Why didn't she like to use her firepowers? Was she pure evil, could she only ever feel hatred, anger and annoyance? So many questions remained unanswered.

"Well put it this way. The good Charmed Ones are the most powerful Source of good, as we all know because of their prophecy. Aren't the opposites supposed the to be the same? Or are you too dumb to put two and two together? And sure well you admit the Evil Power of Three will be more powerful than you?" she asked, folding her arms.

That was one thing Axelia and Richela had in common. Because certain demons were their friends, they didn't trust easily like good would, and they weren't extra-nice to them. They were evil, but in unlike some other evil beings, they were cold to all if they felt to be, even if they didn't mean it, and to their friends as well.

She listened to the comment on cats. "Well, does it matter if they're a thread? Good will kill evil if they're a thread, but evil kills good whether or not they're a threat or not. You're queen of the Underworld, you should know that."

[Axelia Moore]

"Us?" said Axelia raising an eyebrow but then smirked as she shrugged, "That's something the world needs; mystery. But since not many people have it I have to make up for it don't I?" That was Axelia's dry sense of humor for you. But it didn't really matter. A smirk played on Axelia's lips as her way of silent laughter.
"I'm not too dumb to put two and two together," said Axelia calmly. "I don't think Paige Halliwell's power surpasses me either."
Axelia watched for a reaction from Richela at being compared to the youngest good Charmed One before she continued, "And, Richela, dear you don't listen very well do you? I said only with the help of your sisters will you be more powerful than me. The help of your sisters meaning the power of three. But any individual Charmed One surpass my power? I don't think so."
Axelia was starting to get annoyed. She hated anyone saying they were more powerful than her. It was mostly because she had spent so many years feeling vulnerable because she didn't have any powers that when someone was more powerful than her she had the same bad feeling. But she refused to believe Richela was more powerful than her.
Axelia frowned when Richela said her own comment about cats. She did know but it didn't make sense to her. "I do know that but unlike you I have reasons for killing the people I do," said Axelia and noticed a second too late she had said the wrong thing.

[Richela Zenith]

"Now since when were you the ruler of- okay never mind." She was about to ask since when Axelia was the ruler of the Underworld, before she remembered that by being the Source's Queen she was close to it. "You don't make everyone's decision, besides, it's not good to hide everything. Not that Richela could talk, she hid alot too, especially when it came to her emotions.

Richela's face flashed with annoyance at the mention of Paige for a second before it returned back to normal. "Paige Halliwell's power is simple Whitelighter powers, there is no way it can surpass either of us. You have to admin, we both have rather good powers." That was as close as you would ever get to a compliment from Richela. "We both know that."

Richela was about to mention why she was here, but then Axelia said that she has a reason for killing the people she did, and Richela froze and looked at Axelia as if seeing her for the first time. She walked up closer to the throne, a foot away from Richela and frowned. "For some reason I'm getting the impression you shouldn't be the queen of the Underworld. You sould like good. Maybe you weren't the best person for the job I was going to ask you to help me with. I'll just ask Trixie." She knew this would annoy Axelia, as Trixie hated Axelia and naturaly, she suspected the same hated went from Axelia to Trixie.

((OOC: To anyone reading this Richela just thinks she is more powerful))

[Axelia Moore]

(Ooc: So does Axelia or she wouldn't be friends with Richela. )

Axelia smirked as she could already guess that Richela was gonna ask since when was she ruler of the Underworld. Honestly, she had practically been ruler of the Underworld since there was no Source but now she was below the most horrible person of all. Axelia crossed her arms and asked, "Oh so would you rather me be moody and emotional? Do you want to braid my hair while I spill all my deepest and emotional secrets to you? Is that really what you want? Cause if it is I'm apalled."
Richela's next comment still didn't make Axelia happy. As long as she wasn't saying she was more powerful she would take it. She nodded nodded in response.
Axelia narrowed her eyes at what Richela said next. She stood up and was about to theaten her with a energy ball but realized that wouldn't get her point across. A fire ball appeared in her hand and in a low, dangerous tone of voice Axelia said, "And who are you to decide, Richela? I'm Queen of the Underworld because I have proven to everyone I'm not good. Now if you need extra proof I'll be happy to show it to you."
Then Axelia shrugged. "You think Trixie could get the job done better than me? I think not but if you wish to choose her instead then I won't stop you," Axelia said carefully not to show that that comment had actually anoyed her.

[Richela Zenith]

Richela sighed. "And I thought you were smarter than that Axelia.. OF-course it's not what I want, except for the spilling secrets part," she said with a smirk. "Oh yes, did you know I can cast spells? I'm not telling you how though, since you tell me nothing." Being a witch wasn't the only way to cast spells so Axelia wouldn't be able to guess it that easily. "Though, I do think you are half fire-starter."

"Axelia. We both know you won't throw that energy ball. There are so many demons being vanquished, by the Halliwells and by fellow demons that you won't want to unjure one of the few people who are as powerful as you, now do you?" she asked, raising her eyebrows. "And hurting me, by the way, isn't proof. Maybe if you go on a killing spree and kill maybe...five people a day for one week, then I'll probably believe you," she continued, shrugging.

"If I see you hesitating, or feeling bad about seeing the light leave their eyes, then you can't truly be evil. And you have to truly be evil to be on that throne," she told Axelia, a glint in her eyes that could only signify that Richela meant every last word that she said. "I love it, I have my personal reasons, but I love it and I expected you too as well, being the queen."

[Axelia Moore]

Axelia rolled her eyes. "Sarcasm, my dear, Richela, heard of it?" asked Axelia cruelly and the next comment didn't really bug her. So what if Richela could use spells? Did Richela honestly think she care? She could kill anyone she wanted without a spell and she had her own way of transporting herself. So honestly what did that matter. "My mother was a fire-starter..." said Axelia slowly. "What does that matter though?"
"Do you really think I care about injuring you, Richela?" asked Axelia. "I don't need your help for the Halliwells, thank you." Then as a way of proof she let the fire ball escape her man throwing it towards Richela. She didn't really care, but Richela had said it in a disbelieving way that Axelia took it as a challenge. Axelia did whatever she wanted and she wasn't about to let Richela forget that.
The next thing made Axelia throw her head back and laugh a cold cruel laugh. Did Richela truly believe that because she didn't love killing people that she felt sad or guilty when she actually killed someone? Richela didn't get it, did she? So with an amused smirk on her face Axelia shrugged, "Alright, Richela, I'll go on a killing spree with you."
Then Richela shook her head amused again. Axelia deep down she kenw the wasn't pure evil but neither was Col and he was the damn Source. It didn't really matter how evil you were, in Axelia's opinion, it mattered how powerful were. Her powers were what made people believe she was evil the same probably went to Cole.

[Richela Zenith]

"Nothing. It's just a really good power -not as good as Cryokinesis of course, but still good so I thought you'd use it alot mroe often that you do," she said, looking down at her fingernails. She should go for a manicure later...though of course she would kill the person afterwards, probably for messing up something, or just for the sake of being bored thoughtout the manicure.

Richela looked up and seeing the fireball coming towards her raised her hand and froze it. Cryokinesis was her favourite power, to the point where she didn't even use fireballs, almost never. She could simply use balls of ice instead. She actually didn't have very damaging fireballs, probably because she never used them. They didn't do much hard, they just gave you a really bad burn which would scar you for life, but nothing more serious than that. "Nice try, but did you forget I'm a charmed one? I freeze alot of things coming to me to ice, kind of like Temporal Ice Stasis. I got my powers from very young, I had practice."

Richela smiled her cold smile, satisfied. Normally, she couldn't get people to do what she wanted, but somehow she had done it this time. "Good. I was wondering for a second there." she said. "So, where would you like to go for the first set of kills? I have been thinking about getting a manicure, you could kill come along and two different people will attend to us, so that way we both get someone to kill. Unless you want to do them both."

[Axelia Moore]

"Cryokinesis, better than Pyrokinesis? You're kidding right? You know in the longer run people are more scared of fire than they are ice. People feel pain, and it's better at destroying things," said Axelia calmly. "But if you wish to believe Crykinesis is better for the sake of your damn pride then who I to intefere?"
Axelia said that the way she did because she wasn't going to have anyone saying their power was better than hers. She knew her powers were better because they were and she wasn't going to say any different to save Richela's pride. She had too much of it as it was anyways.
"Yes pyrokinesis is a good power," said Axelia nodding despite the fact that she didn't use it that much. "But dear, why would I show people what the Queen of the Underworld can really do? Then there's no sense of surprise when people see it. It's the same old thing. Plus, I have intangibility, conjuring, energy balls, and deflection besides the pyrokinesis I hardly need it."
Axelia had made the list for Richela to show off the fact that Axelia had more powers. All of them fairly impressive except for energy balls and deflection since thousands of demons had that.
Axelia rolled her eyes when Richela froze her fire ball and said nice try. "Yes, because I actually tried to kill you, dear," said Axelia and then with a shrug and knowing grin added, "I knew you'd do that. Predictability is one of you're bad traits, really should try to work against it."
She waited to see how Richela would react before she went onto her next comment of getting her powers very young. "Yes, and I got my powers very late, and they're as good as yours. Not to mention I have more," said Axelia with a smirk and added, "Maybe you didn't practice hard enough."
Axelia had to keep herself from laughing when she saw that Richela smiled satisfied and said she was wondering there. In all honesty she should keep wondering but it didn't matter. She wasn't all that fond of Richela since the start of this little visit. Richela was supposed to be her friend and because she had let on that she didn't like killing as much as she did she accused her of not being worthy to sit on that throne. Not a very supportive friend but she was amusing to keep around. Axelia made a mental note to start praising the Source around Richela, although it would be a lie it would be interesting to get Richela winded up.
"Whatever," said Axelia with a shrug looking down at her nails. Never had she gotten a manicure, what would she need one for anyways? Her nails were fine as they were but Richela wanted one. She looked up and said, "I would kill both but I'm sure you'd want to join in on the fun?"
Axelia smirked although she had just had to lie to keep her threat over the Underworld. She hated lying, it was something she only did when she had to. But she was able to keep her face emotionless.

[Richela Zenith]

"If you so prefer your power, why is it you hardly use it? Cut the "I have lots of powers" crap. she asked smugly. She knew this would get to Axelia, even if she didn't show it. "Pain? Destroying things?" she asked in disbelief. "Is that seriously all that demons ever think about these days? And you, do you have any sense at all?" she asked, her deep brown eyes emotionless but her facial expression was stlll a bit surprised. "I'm not surprised it takes new evil Charmed ones and A Source to finally give Zankou an upper hand..." she muttered.

“Also, you can never kill me hun, just like you could never kill Phoebe, Paige or Piper Halliwell…some queen,” she said, saying the last two words in a very low voice. She ignored the predictable comment as she knew it wasn’t true. “Well I couldn’t exactly-“ she stopped catching herself in time, not wanting to let out anything about her past. She closed her mouth and made sure her face didn’t have as much as a flick of emotion, or else Axelia would have a field day with that. Axelia then agreed to the manicure. “Good. You need one anyways, your nails are horrible,” she said in a half-blank voice.

“But forget about that now. There reason I’m here in the first place, I wanted to talk to you about the Charmed Ones- the good ones of-course.
