"And your brother would most likely be in this house, why?"
He leaned in and his eyes made Amelia feel as though she was a butterfly on a board waiting to be dissected.
"Tell me more girl, or I will make you regret holding that tongue."

"He is a friend of the boy that lives here"
she wanted to curl up right then and there
"W-we just needed a place to stay cause we have no place else to go"
a tear streamed down her cheek

The man smiled and shook Tybalt's hand. "My name is Mike." He said to him, and smiled slightly. "A friend in need, is a friend in deed." He said, as he motioned for the two to come into his home. "Stay as long as you need to. I have plenty of room."
"Thank you, Mike." Decoda said, as she walked into his home.

"I see."
The man stalked past her.
"Come with me, girl. I want to hear Ethan's account for this."
He looked back at her.
"If you do not move I shall swiftly eject you from the premises. Now MOVE!"

Amelia nodded and followed behind the man with her head bowed
"are you going to hurt us?"
she peaked up from her lashes

"Oh, most likely."
The man didn't look back at her.
"It all depends what Ethan has to say... how do you know him?"

"I dont know him, My brother Cryth is the one who knows him, they said something about being in the library"
a tear ran down her cheek knowing her brother would probably be upset with her now
"I-I'm sorry"

He led Amelia into the dining room, a large ornate affair with a chandelier, crystal decanters, the works.
Cryth and Ethan - who was mercifully back in human form - entered the room from the other side.
There was an awkward silence.
Cryth stepped forwards.
"Amelia, you ok?"

Amelia looked up at the man then at her brother
"I-I ran into him when I was looking for you"
she wanted to run to her brother but was to afraid to not knowing what the man would do to her

Cryth eyed the old man apprehensively, who stepped forwards.
"Ethan, come over here, now."
Ethan quietly obeyed.
"Now then," the old man said softly to Amelia. "Why don't you step over to this table here for a moment?"
On the table was an empty crystal bowl... and a knife.

Amelia obeyed and stepped over to the table. She looked at the knife and the bowl, then to her brother and then to the man
"W-what are you going to do to us?"
she asked quietly

The man walked over to her, smiled genially - then forced her over the bowl and held the knife to her throat.
"Did you really think you could escape us?!" he gurgled in a completely inhuman voice. "After you - *schluck*- slaughtered my brothers at your wretched den?!"
Cryth raced forwards but froze when he pressed the blade even closer to Amelia's throat.
"I'm going to *blurgg* bleed you dry, then drink your blood and become so strong that I can *hurff* crush the world beneath my heel!"
Ethan was too stunned to do anything, but Cryth raised a hand for peace.
"Amelia, don't panic!"
There was also a rhythmic creaking from above them, but nobody noticed it.

"I-I didn't kill anyone... please let me go"
she started sobbing, her body began to tremble, he tried to push herself away from the blade
"brother...help me...PLEASE!!"
panic set in and the room started to get cold

The man laughed - the cold not bothering him in his moment of triumph.
"And you will join me my son! Let your demon instincts free! Let them FREE!!"
"Er... Dad..." Ethan coughed. "I'm kinda..." He let his fish tail flop out.
His demonic father's jaw dropped.
"Your mother - she - that - THAT BITCH!!"
A second later, he had morphed into a huge insectoid beast that oozed some sort of rancid sticky goo from it's joints.
"I'll kill her *shclurp* after I kill you all!"

Then, from above them.
"Oh... oh baby... if you keep doing that my springs are gonna pop... oh, I didn't even know you could do that with a mattress... oh gods, suck on my headboard just like that...oh... oh I think I... I-I'm gonna... Oh...OH... OH **** BABY I'M GONNA FLUFF!!"
The ceiling above them shattered, and the unfortunate demon was crushed by a pair of beds, one on top of the other, and fluff burst out from one of them, coating both the demon's corpse and Amelia. The tentacles retracted from the top one.
"Oh yeah... call me, kay?"
Then it turned slightly, as though realizing other people were there. Amelia had been thrown clear by the impact, although her face was now covered in fluff.
"What are you staring at?"

Amelia slowly got up brushing the fluff off of her
"Brother?"
she started to look around
"what just happened?"



Semira smirked
"Aww I was only teasing, lighten up will ya"
she elbowed Shula
"If you want I can take you and the back and make it up to you"
she raised a brow waiting for the reaction. then turned her attention to Gabe
"I can take you there if you wan't there is a angel there I've been dying to see again, He still hasn't given me my punishments"

Cryth blinked a little.
"I'm... not too sure, but I think it's rated 18 or over."
The bed disentangled itself and looked down at the demon paste it had formed. "That is going to take forever to get out of my blankets."
Ethan looked like the world had caved in, and Cryth grabbed Amelia's arm. "There'll be more. What did you want to tell me, quick?"

"a boy came to me and said if we needed a place to go, that we should go to a place called Predator's Pass"
she felt a sting on her throat and placed her hand on it. When she felt where the knife was held it was wet, she moved her fingers in front of her, revealing that she was bleeding
"b-brother?"

Cryth quickly took a scrap of the dead demon's shirt and wrapped it around her throat.
"It's just a cut, it's just a cut, you're not going to die, you're not going to die..."
He stroked her hair absentmindedly as what she said registered.
"Predator's Pass... that's quite a way out from the city. Odd place to suggest - who is this boy, how did you meet him?"

She relaxed when he stroked her hair
"I met him in my dreams last night, and then he appeared when I was in the garden thinking"
she put her hand on her throat where he wrapped it
"He said for us to meet him there and told me the password to get in"
she looked at her brother
"Are we going to go?"

Cryth was very thoughtful by nature, and after getting almost killed by a demon in disguise and saved only by a horny bed, very confused and paranoid.
"How did you see this boy? Was there anything weird about him? Amelia, it could be a trap."

Amelia thought for a moment
"He appeared to me in my dream the first time"
she looked at her brother
"I didn't notice anything weird. He was really nice and offered to help us"

Demons, as a rule, were generally not very nice. So Cryth decided to, in lieu of any other option, to just go with it.
"OK. So. Predator's Pass. Let's go." He looked at the bed, who shambled after them. "I'm coming, I'm coming..."
Cryth looked back at Ethan, who nodded despite looking shellshocked. "I won't tell a soul."
"Good." He looked down at Amelia. "And you're sure this is a good idea?"

Amelia shrugged
"I- I guess it is, he seemed really nice"
she followed beside her brother
"Do you know where its at brother?"
she put her hand on the bandage
"If it dangerous?"


Semira smirked at Shula reaction
'I'm gonna have some fun with her' she thought
she then looked back at gabe
"I can show you, It's not far from here"
she leaned back in her seat
"In fact I just recently attacked them took out two of their angels. but..."
she leaned in
"I heard there is a higher angel there now, I've already had an encounter with him recently but we got interrupted"
she stood up
"as a matter of fact I would like to pay him a visit, tho due to the Holiness of the church I cannot enter..BUT.."
she snapped her fingers and several men approached her
"they can"
she smirked and started to head towards the door
