Ashton had seen the power being used. Nox at the Almaz. Nox in the Blackthorn mansion. He'd seen it on TV when the Ascendancy had changed a whole building. But when the lights and sights around him changed Ashton knew he was in danger and there was no one here to keep him safe. The song from his lips stopped abruptly. Those who had been touched by his gift no longer felt his pull to leave.
And just as quickly as the lights began he was floating strung up like a pig for slaughter by the very man he had just barely escaped from before. Jaxen Marveet -- once prisoner of the Blackthorns and now he was after Ashton. It wasn't his fault all of this. Where was Nox? He'd protect him. He hoped. Though Nox was also a victim of Ashton's manipulation. It had yet to be seen how friendly he'd be after the fact.
Jaxen rattled on about cannibals and aliens and Ashton was confused. Aliens? What the fuck was he talking about. All Ashton knew is Jaxen was there one minute then gone the second. He had nothing to do with it. He thought Jaxen had done it. What the fuck?
Panic set in and all Ashton could do was stare at the devil mask taking him in like he really was that stuck pig.
