Ez growled at everyone, the tie in her hair becoming a snake and slithering away when Volkenagrim touched it. "The eye you adress is Ez. It takes over my body. I am not in control. It is." Her red eye glared, another fire raising. "If it ever goes away, I'm free. But it never leaves. It just gets worse." She shuffled around a bag in her treehouse, rummaging through knives and herbs. She brought up a dagger, but the blade was black. Ez, staring at it, cursed under her breath. She tucked it in a rope knot latched to her belt and leaped to a tree. "Excuse me a moment, I need to find a fire." She climbed down the base of the tree and shuffled through frost to get to a village. At that point, Ez had taken over, but the real girl inside was trying to beat it up with her own fists. She tossed the dagger into the fire, then it flew back into her hand, ablaze. There was a blank ex
pression on her face but a small smirk made it's way. She held the blade tightly, as if afraid it would melt, causing her to drop it. She carried it back into the woods like a torch, flames waving side to side, back and forth.

Ez shook her head. "I do not wish to mark you, its that I need to... Well..." She downcast her eyes, and ran off to a lake. She dipped the dagger in the water, and the Ez eye's dark red shadow billowed in the water. She glared at it, a clear frown on her face. "Get out. I can't stand you anymore, Ez." She dried the flames off, then stabbed the Ez eye. It then swanned out of the water, becoming a huge column of fire. Ez stumbled backward, looking up at the fire and the sky which was now black. She grasped a cross that had been hanging around her neck, which she had quite forgotten about. She crawled until her back smacked against a tree, and she almost shrunk down like a turtle. Ez's eye was now normal, but she could see the same horrible things and hear the screeching yells of pain coming from the fire. Ez held an arm over her head, closing her eyes, waiting.

Ez's eyes were still cast at the ground beside her, flinching from Volkenagrim's touch. "I needed to take my real name back... And to do that I needed Ez to get out..." She looked up slowly, but her eyes melted down again like a wave of blue and grey.

Ez leaned against the tree, not knowing what to do. She had no powers until her real name was given back. Ez shuffled around her pockets, daggers, and bags. Nothing but the dagger she used to banish the Ez eye. Maybe that would work. She slipped it out, and tossed it at Maleck's eye to distract him while she found an escape route. Ez leaped over a rock, then ran as fast as she could. She ran into Diclino, cursing under her breath. "Great, lose-lose situation..." She went the hard way and stumbled behind Diclino and Lydia.

Ez stared at Lydia with a scowl. "Shut up if you want to live right now."

Ez glared at Maleck like a frightened child, a little younger than her age, looking like she was trying to be brave but did a poor job. She caught the dagger when it flew to her, then she thought of something. She picked up a rock, light but sharp as her dagger, then sprinted around to get behind Maleck. She held her objects to her side, then said some words. She clashed the stone against the dagger, making such a loud screech that she both deafened herself and caused a large bolt of lightning to zap at Maleck. Ez stumbled backward, feeling for something to break her fall. Please work, please work. As soon as the very edge of the bolt hit Maleck, a large shock went through him and burnt him to the core. She then rounded to where Maleck's back was again, then started tapping the bones with her knife causing them to fall out of place. She just kept doing it until she got close to the head.

Ez, too, was a bit low on energy. "I don't need the Eye to have powers. I've got my own eyes." As she said those words, her regular eyes glowed a bright blue then faded to normal. She ran backwards with her hands behind her, as not to run into anything. She held her dagger tightly, as it was sparking with electricity. She tried to figure out a way to defeat Maleck. She ran around in circles around the giant monster, trying to dizzy him. She then leaped onto his head, stabbing at his eyes repeatedly and shocking him with electricity. She ran backwards into the trees, pointing her dagger upward. A large column of fire melted through the sky and engulfed Maleck completely.
