*Valron smiled grimly. Well so much for casual conversation. It was obvious that Valron knew something of the amulet, but just what exactly he did know was unable to be seen.*

"Well Ticonious you strike a hard deal. Everyone on this world or the amulet's location. To bad I don't know exactly where it is. After I opened the portal the lack of energy knocked me unconscious. When I awoke the amulet and Maruis where gone."

*Valron shrugged and smiled towards Ticonious. It was fairly obvious that that was the truth, but not the whole truth. The reality of the matter was something much more deeper than that. But for now Valron's mouth was shut and his eyes were watching Ticonious' reaction.*

"Oh, and Ticonious, I wouldn't suggest killing everyone you know. There might be more dire consequences than you could even imagine."

*A small red dot flicked to life on Ticonious' well lit up forehead between his eyes as Valron's left hand held one of his two guns with its laser sight aimed. Valron took gauge of the situation in his mind. Two against one. Duragon would be a more immediate threat, but if Ticonious had time to chant a spell or focus his power he could be just as challenging. Valron was slightly uncertain if he could win this fight without some sort of help. In the back of his mind he just hoped that Hiro or someone else would come before to long.*
