Mordeth eyes opened, he growled but was smiling as he stared at the fire. he kept his arm afire and stared into the night 'so, Satan sent a bunch of nobody demons to catch me. not surprised to see Azrael amongst the group.' the flame on his arm growing hotter by the second, the flames started to glow darker. he reached his mind out more 'well, these demons i sense...ten of them i think. they're different...stronger. i would like to see them fight.'
Azrael growled at the insults Mordeth was throwing out of his mouth. he was about to go after him but stopped and smiled. he thought to himself 'Mordeth will take care of Vengeance for me. and when he does, i'll kill him and take the child. perfect' he watched the scene play infront of him
Mordeth smiled, feeling the jolt hit his body, but grunted as if he was in pain, not wanting to let anyone know he was enjoying it. he lived for pain, embraced it as if it was a lover's love. 'no...stop. it's too much 'he said in his best weak voice
Azrael watched the two demons. he thought to himself 'Moderth...what are you planning? i know you aren't that weak...or have you?' he didn't say a word, waiting for something to happen
Satan walked to the banquet hall, his hands clenched into tight fist, glass shattering as he walked by it. servants scattered in fear, some weren't so lucky to get away. Satan sat at the head of the table, leaned forward, propped his elbows on the table andheld his hand in front of his face, glaring at no one
Ezekiel did come out of his meditative state. He wasnt done training yet. His sence of danger wasnt as good as his fathers, so he had little to no idea of what was going on.
Ereshkigal crumpled the note, watching it burn in the palm of her hand. Once washed and feeling refreshed, she got dressed and followed the trail of gore and broken things to find her husband. She found him in the banquest hall. She silently took her seat beside him and sat back.
Satan growled and snapped his fingers, summoning servants holding silver trays of warm food, apples, deserts, and some held pitchers of blood and wine. they set down what they were holding infront of the king and queen, bowed and exited from the hall. Satan looked at Ereshkigal 'let us have dinner then'
Vengeance looked down."Dont be disrespectful Mordeth...Now, down to business. I know you want the lady back and the child safe right? Well here's the thing, I dont feel she should have been captured and taken. I just want to win the war. When he told us to come here to kill you and kidnap the child I was thinking how will this benefit the war. Personally I dont like Satan, and Im sure you have a certain disliking to him also. I have a proposal....Help me overthrow the fool that is Satan." Vengeance hoped Satan hadnt seen his conversation with Mordeth. He was sure Mordeth wanted Gean back and the child safe, so his plan couldnt fail. He needed someone as powerful as Mordeth to help him, since he couldnt possibly do it alone.
Mordeth's eyes went wide. how'd he know he wanted Gean back? Azrael or Satan must've told him. he growled then stopped, thinking to himself 'if he helps me over throw Satan, i can kill Ereshkigal and this fool as well, control Hell and over run heaven. it's perfect' he relaxed himself and stared the demon in the eyes 'we have a deal. but if you even are gloat about captruing me i'll kill you whre you stand without a single thought'
Azrael was growing impatient. he walked over to the child but was pounced upon by Behemoth. the great beast growled and snapped his jaws at Azrael's throat, warning him. Azrael mumbled and laid still, thinking of how to get away. he smiled and turned his head only to have his eyes go wide. the legion were nowhere to be seen, a dark mist has risen fast and started to spread over the ground
Satan smiled as he placed a hand on Ereshkigal's stomach. he concentrated as they kissed, his hand glowing dark. he pulled away from the kiss and looked at her 'how much do you like being a goddess?'
Ezekiels eyes snapped open. He felt the mist. He felt a terrible fear sweep over him. He stood up, staying close to the fire. "Mordeth? Mordeth where are you?!" He held himself as he watched the mist. "Mom... I wish you were here."
Ereshkigal smirked. "I love it. I love the power." She looked into his eyes. "Why do you ask, my beloved."
Mordeth's eyes darted to the direction of the clearing. he bolted out of the darkness and stopped as he entered the mist. 'Ezekiel? Ezekiel?!' he looked around and felt a blade rush by his face. he swung around and brought his blade down onto another phantom blade to his right. he grunted as he felt another blade slice across his shoulder. he rolled away and brought his blade up to parry a blade that was thrusted right for his face 'what the Hell are these things?!'
Azrael watched the fight, well listened to it, happen through the mist. who gave the legion orders to attack? where's the boy? and where is Vengeance?
Satan smiled 'because..' he pushed his hand harder onto her stomach, draining her of her power 'you lost it...my slave'
Vengeance ran after Mordeth."They're called "The Legion." When Satan returned he brought them as the "key" to winning the war. Be careful, they are nothing to be fooled with. Tell that animal to keep Azrael pinned. We need to defeat these things before we go to get Gean, and protect the kid." Vengeance pointed his weapon at one of the legion. "Get ready and dont get distracted for just a second!"
