"Um, okay sure we could answer a riddle or two, right?" Jerrick agreed, looking over to Rio.
"Well, uh, um, I'm no good at riddles..." Rio confessed. Jerrick gave him a look of apology.
"Can you at least let go of us first, please?" Jerrick asked.

Serpain chuckled bemused as he released the two vampires and moved around them to stand in front of the cave. "Alright then I'll go first. What work can a painter never quite finish?" he asked crossed his arms not really seeming to mind the scratches and blood that appeared on his chest. His face had a smug smile planted upon it.
'A painter?' Isaac asked waking suddenly. 'What do you mean?'
'Silence it's a riddle,' Serpain replied to the irritant.
'...what's the answer?'
'Figure it out for your self'

"Um....I..." Rio shrinking into Jerrick, trying to think and thankful to not be in the arms of the man infront of them.
"Their dreams?" Jerrick guessed. He knew it was wrong. It had to be.
ooc: Is the answer: her autobiography?

((Yup!))
"Oh I'm sorry, that is incorrect, does the other fangling have an answer?" Serpain mused his face said he'd almost guessed they wouldn't have gotten it.
'Serpain is it her Lifestory or something like that?' Isaac quested thoughtfully, unaware of the consequences the others were going to suffer. These details had been carefully glassed by Serpain.
'Good work Isaac, you're not as dumb as you seemed...' Serpain replied chuckling out loud.

Rio thought hard but nothing was coming to him. Nothing at all. "Um...no. I have no answer." He looked at the ground, ashamed. He waited for some kind of pain whether it was from Jerrick or Serpain.

"Oh that's unfortunate, that means minus one point. As it stands -1 you and 0 me. How about you throw one my way then?" Serpain asked chuckling, a noticeable pulse went through his blade as if ready to strike them down. "Make it a hard one Fanglings...I love this game."
'What will you do if they lose?' Isaac asked worriedly.
'Nothing of consequence,' Serpain asked innocently mocking the poor boy.

Rio stayed quiet, biting his lower lip.
"If one equals four, two equals eight and three equals twelve, what does four equal?" Jerrick asked quickly. He had just heard this one and he still remebered the answer and he hoped this crazy guy would get the answer wrong.

"Hmm...I'm tempted to answer with 16 but I can't be sure, this is a riddle after all...perhaps it's one?" Serpain mused mostly to himself. Isaac was confused.
'but why would four equal one? doesn't that break the pattern?' he asked thoughtfully.
'I'm just musing it could equal the temple of lakasadom for all I know at the moment,' Serpain replied as if Isaac were a fool.

Jerrick waited for an answer, watching Serpain intently. Rio slowly looked up, watching Jerrick and Serpain. To him the riddle was hard, he only hoped it was hard enough for Serpain.

((Is it 16 or 1 or something completely different?))
Serpain pondered searching his infinite mind for a suitable answer. Isaac couldn't follow the steps and numerous places the serpent king sailed. Serpain tapped his chin. "Hmmm..." he voiced just to ensure that those around him knew he was still searching for an answer.

ooc: I won't tell you until you guess one number! ^-^
bic: The vampires waited patiently hoping that with every second that he thought he would guess the wrong answer.

((hehe...I'm such a smart English teacher...*loves that oxymoron*))
Serpain was sitting down by the time Isaac roused him from his thoughts.
'Have you got an answer? Christ...' the annoying voice cried breaking into Serpain's process.
"huh?" he asked out loud by mistake. "Oh yes of course..."
He looked to the patient vampires and nodded. "Alright my final answer is the number one, that's my story and I'm sticking to it," he said clearly and crossed his arms self-assured in seemingly every aspect of his life. Though it came off more as over confidence and self-pride and indulgence.

Jerrick's shoulders sagged and a curse escaped his lips. Rio looked over to his friend, then at Serpain. That meant...oh crap. They were going to die. He just knew it!
ooc: Blah..it's bad but oh well...

Fine then is it one?))
