crawled under the door.
From outside the door Lance looked down to see Blix. "Blix, is she all right?" asked Lance as he picked up the ice.
"Apples" replied Blix as he leapt into the air and glided away.
"Van, go get him" said Lance as plated armor began to appear on his body, Van nodded before he trotted after Blix. When he returned Blix was circling him and quickly stopped when he felt the rage from Lance, Blix turned and began to flee but was frozen in mid air. Blix slowly turned and its eyes glow a strange black, it then began to glide back to Lance. Lance then held out his arm and Blix quickly landed on the arm, Blix then sat down and waited for its commands.
"Is it me, or is Lance an uber demon or something?" asked Van as he stood by Derik.
"Well, I once asked father about Lance and he said that Lance is the prince of all demons, but his father put a curse on him because he found out that his son fell in love with a human. So now Lance can never learn about his title until..." said Derik as his voice drifted off.
"Until what?" asked Van for he now yearned to find out what would set his friend free.
"Well father never really got a chance to tell me because their was a train crash and he had to go and collect" replied Derik with a shrug.
"Useless" shouted Lance as he released his spell over the Llithro, Blix blinked his eyes before he snapped at Lance. He then turned and glided to the ground before he crawled under the door to the safety of his bondmate.
"Lance, if you calm down I'll ask father if anything important happened to Kat,” said Derik as the armor on Lance disappeared, he then nodded and disappeared. Lance snorted before he began to pace up and down the hallway, Van then shifted to his wolf form and laid down. He was about to take a nap when an itch arose on the top of his head, try as he might he couldn't reach it. He was about to ask Lance when he saw that the demon was still angry, so he stood up and scratched at Kat's door. He didn't know why he did it, he just did it. Suddenly the door opened, he quickly walked inside and nosed the door shut.
The sight of what he saw hit him like a silver bullet, he had never seen his friend like this. Instead of being next to the door, Kat had moved to a corner. His itch was now forgotten as he walked over to Kat and licked her arm, to his disappointment she didn't respond.
"Kat, will you tell me what happened?" asked Van as he lay down with his head on her knee, he was about to whine when a putrid smell hit him. He whimpered as he walked backward trying to get the smell out of his nose.
"You smell it, don't you?" asked Kat in a quiet voice.
"Yes, but it smells like death and I know that you would never kill" replied Van as his eyes widened, as Kat looked at the floor Van had changed into his human form and was racing out the door only to have his neck in Lance's hand.
"What do you think you were doing in there?” growled Lance as a silver blade grew from the demon's knuckles.
"Its not what you think, you were pacing when the door opened and I went in. I had a small chat with Kat and found out something very disturbing,” replied Van, as Lance's eyes grew dark.
"Put him down Lance, father told me why Kat is like this. But I will only tell you if you let the werewolf go" said Derik as Lance released Van and the blade disappeared.
"All right, now what happened?" demanded Lance as Derik nodded.
"Kat was asked by Witch to go and pick up a package for her, on the way back to Witch a gang attacked Kat-" started Derik but Van interrupted him.
"Kat can take anyone one and win, so why is she-" started Van but was told by the other two to shut up.
Derik shook his head before he continued, "the gang wanted Kat's possessions but she denied them and one of them attacked. She then lost control of her arm and four guns came out of it and shot the attacker. To speed things up, Kat lost control of her whole body and it went robotic. She then killed the rest of the gang in a very messy fight, so she now has a bullet in her side. But its not her fault that the gang died" said Derik as Lance turned toward the door and summoned his black armor.
"I loved her, and she does this. She must suffer the same fate as those she killed,” said Lance in a pained filled voice.
"You can't, its Kat. It'll be just like killing yourself,” said Van as he placed his hand on the demon's shoulder.
"I died when I fell in love with a human" replied Lance as he jerked his shoulder away. Right before Lance was about to kick in the door a dark presence was felt, a dark shape appeared and had the shape of Derik. |
