Question Nocturne. This shows you are a) unafraid and b) are not dumb enough to attack someone who could end your life with a single flick of his wrist.

Your mouth is dry. Beads of sweat have formed on your forehead and are dripping down your temples. "How did you escape?" you stammer. Nocturne laughs quietly. His chilly breathe causes the tip of your nose to become numb.
"
He has released me from the League's grasp. Now it is time to exact revenge on those who have imprisoned me. Their twilight approaches. I will cut them from this world." An involuntary shiver travels down your spine, causing Nocturne's blade to draw a shallow crimson line.
You bite your lower lip and meet the Champion's unearthly white eyes. "Why is Cho'Gath still in his cage? Aren't you going to help him?"
"
His contract left separate instructions for Cho'Gath. But you won't live to see that day. You are a new flesh bag to slice up." He raises his blade. You shut your eyes, hoping the torture will be swift. However, you know that you will be screaming for death before it ends.
A gentle warmth encircles your body.
Well...That was a merciful murder. You must have passed over to Heaven. After opening your eyes, you see a winged figure wearing golden armor. What a beautiful angel! Hold on, wait a second--
"Into the fray! Your time has come," declares the warrior. Her sword burns with righteous fury, illuminating every inch of the chamber.
"Kayle," jeers Nocturne. He releases you and faces The Judicator. "Do you think that you stand a chance against me without the aid of your precious Summoner?"
"What have you done with her? I knew you had escaped the moment that Paranoia shrouded the Institute in supernatural darkness. Come here; I'll teach you all about the Afterlife." Kayle readies her sword in preparation for a final Reckoning.
You hear footsteps descending from the stairs. "You are nothing more than glass waiting to be smashed." A sparkling aquamarine light, combined with Kayle's fiery sword, casts away every shadow in the dungeon. Every shadow except for Nocturne.
"You shall be crushed. Your crimes are truly, truly, truly outrageous," asserts the Gem Knight. Taric emits a brilliant ball of prismatic light from his gemmed shield. "This will be Dazzling."
Nocturne knows that he is outnumbered and other Champions will undoubtedly arrive soon. Before the opponents can land a blow, his body dissipates into mist. Laughter encircles the room as the malicious aura disappears.
... What will you do now?
