feeling the racketings in the air of the mental link lessen, and the connection of the other higher up a bit though not seemingly troublesome, I accepted the fact my help wasnt needed in any way any more. Luckily.
'Sometimes youre able to do something by just being there, as a friend of some sorts.' I said looking at the white haired guy from the corner of my eye. He who didnt think he was able to do anything for the situation of his summoner... Oh well.

"Father...." Damien swallowed hard, his eyes turning black with rage at what he was about to do. He knelt down in front of Talon as if he was in front of Lucifer in hell. "Lord Lucifer, Please revert it. If it wasn't for you speeding up the mark I would have finished negotiations with the angels! We were just about to get the peace treaty you wanted!" he didn't know what else to say, or even what his father wanted to hear.

Talon sat up rather than remaining a laying heap on the floor. For a moment he felt a bit dizzy, but then that was perhaps the reason why he didn't stand. The dizziness subsided for the moment and that's when he noticed his friend kneeling to him. This of course made him feel a bit uncomfortable, since he felt that Prince should never have to kneel to the likes of him. "This just became even more awkward..." he said quietly but listened to his Lord's reply in his mind.

The bat winged demon stared fairly calmly at his friend, though he did wish he wouldn't kneel to him. It wasn't really necessary, but there was nothing Talon could really do about it since it was of Damien's accord essentially and he would only rise when he wanted to, after all he was the Prince. "His reply is that the treaty should have been done sooner, but due to your outbursts it has been constantly prolonged. To prevent another outburst he decided to take away the cause of one of them" he said rather calmly though was preparing for the worst. He knew his friend was already angry and he had a feeling that this conversation would only make things worse.

Janen again peered over at the priestess angel at her words. "Friend? My Commander is NOT my friend. He is my Commander and nothing more. If he is injured that is of his own accord and I have no business in it. Perhaps you being a 'friend' to one in pain is the ways in Heaven, but the ways of Hell are very different. The only acception to that is if the royals wish to do something of the sorts" the white haired demon replied as he narrowed his eyes at the angel. This was perhaps the second angel that had mistaken the ways of Hell and forgetting that it was very different from Heaven. What did he care though? This only gave him more of an oppertunity to show just how different things word and 'educate' the angels.

Phoenix had stayed close at hand so when the princess questioned her she moved forward only a bit. "I use not only angelic healing magic but have found ways to mix old earth magic, human magic and even bits of demonic magic. However, if a procedure requires demon magic I need a willing demon to help since we do not posses the same kinds of energy. I also mix, when nessecary, medicinal herbs and pills. I find that when I find a controlled balance between the various things that the chances of success are extremely heightened."

'Well I am sorry that I have misunderstood you then.' I said sighing
'I thought, watch it, it isnt present simple, that hell had something like friendship of the sorts even between two different ranks. Though I was wrong and thank you for taking the energy to correct me at such a foolish thought.' I said looking distantly the other way... Heaven and hell sure are different...

Damien was furious, but never looked up. "The main cause isn't Sikura! It's that damn Princess! I'd rather talk to the King of Heaven then that damned angel!" He was shaking hard, knowing it wasn't Talon's fault that he was angry and shouldn't take it out on him. "Stop it now and I'll make sure that stupid Princess sits her high and mighty butt on the throne and we talk it out, or sohelp me I'll force her hand!"

((her high and might butt... I had to laugh at that xP well done hanabi~!))

Her eyes opened as the growth had stopped at her throat. Sikura looked at Damien as he tried so hard to help her and here she was as helpless as ever. She knew she was bleeding from the rose's thorns but she had to help Damien. The human tried to stand but she couldn't even do that. "I have to help somehow...I have done nothing but start trouble..."

High and might butt my ass!!:P ha hah I made a pun:D ))

Penelope Gave a thoughtfull look. Perhaps Phoenix would be able to help if Prince Damiens plans dong go the way he wants them to! She thought and looked up at Zeak. "Do you suppose it a good idea to interrup the prince Zeak!? She asked and looked at Phoenix. "Do you think it a wise idea Phoenix?" She asked the other girl wanting more than just one answer.

Zeak looked down at Penelope as she spoe to him. "I would say if he hasent come back in the next ten minuts it may be a possible disition to forcibly help." he said rather calmlyand waited to here Phoenix's answer. He coud here the King ranting in his head. Something about killing the prince if he even tried asking something? Hes making no sence! He thought and shook his head. It seemed that the King was wound up in himself that he wasnt paying much attenchion to his own daughter at the moment.

Talon could see his friend shaking in anger, but again there wasn't much he could do since he was to relay the messages that he knew would make the Prince only angrier. "Damien if you need an outlet it's alright I'll understand" he offered quietly. His mind rung with Lucifer's answer and he knew that it would again probably just make the Prince even angrier than he already was. He paused though in relaying the message and looked towards the human. "You are going to want to sit least you bleed yourself to death from your movements. That is how you can help right now" he said calmly to her before turning his gaze back to his Prince.

"Your father says that it was essentially her doing that you have already killed an angel and started a bloodbath earlier in the ballroom. For that he is furious at you for that was not the Princess's fault. He says that you overreacted and if it hadn't been for the others, whom were mostly angels including the Princess herself, that you would have completely sacrificed any possibility for a peace treaty between Heaven and Hell. For this you are being punished. He is once more going to return the mark to the speed he had set and has instructed you have but three hours to create, sign and enforce the treaty before the human's life will end" he said looking apologetic at the Prince for having to relay such a message. There had been a reason for the bat winged demon's offer and this was perhaps it. Naturally he left out the tone that Lucifer had used, to the dismay of the Lord of Hell, but he figured that for now that would be best.

Janen sighed as his eyes remained narrowed at the angel. "There is a possibility of friendship between higher and lower ranks. After all my Commander and my Prince are friends. The fallen angel Alanna and my Prince are friends and my Commander and Alanna are friends. I'm just not friends with any of them. Probably the only reason that any of them are actually 'friends' is simply the fact that both my Commander and Alanna were once angels so they understand this silly concept those in Heaven have" he said looking away. It wasn't that he wouldn't welcome the oppertunity to be 'friends' with his superiors it was simply that he wasn't allowed. Offering such a thing to either Talon or Damien would probably result in being laughed at or mortally wounded, depending upon their moods. As for the fallen Alanna he wasn't sure, but considering the other two he figured it would be unwise to go to her as well. Either way he didn't really care. He had managed to get the Second in Command position under Talon so there wasn't much more that he really needed.

A small smile had made its way to my face, though it dissapeared quickly, no need to annoy a demon now would I?
'Well thanks for clearing that out mister demon, youre not so bad yourself' I said sighing
'Though that doesnt make you a sweetheart...But that is the way you want it right?' I said looking boredly at him. Oh well. I got stuff to attend, I can feel human panic in the air, and no matter what other say angels are guardians, except for the stupid killer angel then. 5 more minutes before im going to show them what kind of an angel I am.

"I think it is a good choice especially since she as angelic qualities even though she is human. Not only that but with the Prince's mark she also now had demonic energy as well. This type of healing might just be the best thing for her," she said to the princess hoping she was explaining it well enough.

"I will need the assistance of an angelic pristess and a powerful demon. I will have to use their energy in the process," Phoenix said knowing that this might be the most difficult part of all.

((Hell yeah xD))

(( Do you like that idea diamondt? I've been thinking of ways for us to work together ^-^ I hope that's okay))

((XD yeah I like that ^_^ Call me dia chiku, were friends >D n.n its just I am bored but dont want to solve a whole problem in like one swap... xD))

Penelope Nodded her head in understanding. She was glad to here that the Human would be spaired if they could act quick enough that is.
"Well then, I suppose we should get to interrupting then!" Penelope said and stood up. "You said you might need a Prestess?" She asked trying to figuar out who else would be of use in this situation. "And a strong demon as well.... Hnmmm" She gave a thoughtfull look around. Her eyes landed on the white haired demon and she shook her head. He was strong but he wasnt in the best of moods with her and would probably muck it all up if he found he could. But as she looked she could see a Prestess speaking with the white haired demon.
"how about her Phoenix?" Penelope asked pointing to the prestess.

Zeak looked over at penelope as she stood. He should of bowed like he was taught but from what he learned of penelope was that she hated formality and had told all the servents to be formal around her when she was in the company of some one of high class. That way she knew they were bowing to them and not her. regardless he listened to her speak and couldent help but smile at the way she was taking things. "I suppose I will go with you, To clarify any misunderstandins!" he said and this time gave penelope a small bow and held his hand out for her to take so that they may begin helping the Prince before his preshous human was killed.

Janen's gaze had wondered elsewhere but had whipped over to the priestess angel rather quickly at her words. "What? What do you mean I'm not so bad myself? I'm a demon, I'm suppose to be bad. You know fire, brimstone all that stereotypical bull that you angels and humans have come up with" he said glaring. He truly hadn't known exactly where the priestess comment had come from about him not being so bad himself. "If I didn't know better I would have taken your comments as a feeble attempt at charm..." he said in a huff and turned his gaze away. He had noticed a bit of commotion towards the throne area and the noticed the fallen dog, as he had earlier referred to Zeke as, was standing and offering his arm to the Princess. 'Oh great what sort of mess is she planning to create this time...' he thought with a mental sigh.

Laughing at his sudden outburst, I had to say this was amusing
'cute' I said softly Hoping he didnt hear it though... though he prob did...
'I gave up on the brimstone and fire idea, sorry mister, never said I thought of hell like that, please dont make assumptions. As I said, youre not so bad yourself, you take the time to explain me where the misunderstandings lay. At which I thank you.' I said Grinning his way.
'And maybe I am trying to charm you~' I played teasingly with a finger on my lip.
'Though I think you know better.' I sighed, putting my hands on my hips. sadly enough he does, it would be even more amusing if he didnt know better though. Looking the way he looked, I wondered why the princess was pointing at me, but decided to let it slip.

Janen had indeed heard the cute comment which made his eye twitch a little and go to the priestess angel. "I said angels with an 'S' as well as humans meaning not just you. Do not make the assumptions that, that comment was only directed at you" he said in his usual tone though he did appear a bit flustered. His gaze averted from the angel's and would probably remain that way for at least a few minutes.

"And I am NOT cute! I am a demon! I'm something to be feared! Something that's evil! Something that if you tried to charm you'd end up dead for! Something that...oh forget it. Your not the only one who's said something like that. It's my wings isn't it?" he said with a resignated sigh and bowed his head in shame. At the mention of his wings the small black appendages fluttered as if on their own. They were indeed smaller than they should have ever been for a demon. For Janen they were more of a nuisance than anything else since they weren't even large enough for him to use to fly. He knew that it probably wasn't the only reason he was called cute, but they didn't really help his case when he claimed he wasn't.

((oh I love this.))
'Well since youre talking to me and not the whole humand and angel population I figured I would point out my idea, though I am sure some angels and a lot of humans are still living in that dream.'' I stated happily enjoying the reaction given, though that wasnt to be shown.
'And please mister Demon, youre not something. Youre someone, get it right. Especially if you wanna be big one day.' I said with a look in my eyes as of disappointment.
'As for the wings, they are funny, dont be bothered to much by it i-di-ot' I smiled looking at the fluttering things.

(Lol indeed. XD)

Janen still found himself unable to either raise his head or even look at the angel. "Of course they do. We've no intention of letting them think otherwise. We are something to be feared and that's just how we like it" he said with a little huff at the end. Fear was something that was natural for them to cause since demons had always been expected to create it. Since Lucifer had always been seen and revered as evil it was only natural that demons would be seen the same way, and he figured that since that belief had been about so long there was no use in changing it now. Demons wouldn't be able to really adapt to not causing fear and suffering since they had been doing it for so long, and it was something they were familiar with and knew.

"Something, someone there's no real difference. They're merely words that have been created nothing more. Both are used to reference things so it doesn't matter if I refer to myself as something or someone. Either way I'm a demon and that's the end of it. I care not about something as simple as distinguishing between thing and one" he said calmly as he was finally able to raise his head.

His eyes also managed to find their way to the angel and they narrowed. "Careful you your calling and idiot angel. In Hell your appearance does matter, and simple things like the opinion of others do matter. I've already reached the rank of Second to my Commander, but I already know that is as far as I can ever go. There has never been a 'cute' leader in Hell in anything and I know there never shall be. Despite this do not think my position is a light one either" he said fiercely. He would not let a simple insult such as being called an idiot slide by so smoothly, especially by an angel. After all what sort of demon would he be if he did?

'I hate fear, it keeps people from following their dreams, but apparently demons have no such thing as... sadly.'
'As for the difference between one and thing, I think youre a person, youre breathing without getting ordered to do so. I know youre a demon so at least refer yourself to one. Demons arent things as you might know. Though I am glad you are looking at me now.' I said with an approving look decorating my face
'Well then second commander, may I know youre name? Mine is Diamond Tsubasa. You might have heard about me, you might have not.' I said casually, though I was really 'proud' of him to actually look at me, shame has been distinguished~ Mission Completed.
((need to go to bed, enjoyed myself though, I will make sure to post back first thing in the morning xD))

The pain returned to Sikura and caused her cried out a little as the mark started down her body. Her eyes closed as she felt the vines clawing at her lungs. She fell to her knees as the vines started to cut off her air. "Dam...i...en..." Her eyes closed as she fell forward all the time losing blood.

Talon's gaze once more left his friend and went to the human. "It seems Lord Lucifer is done talking about it..." he said quietly and turned his gaze back to his friend. He knew that Damien was probably not going to be in the best of moods, not that he was now. He knew that at the moment there wasn't much that could be done for the human other than simply following Lucifer's words.

Janen once more glared at the angel. "Do not assume you know things about demons or that your are at liberty to assume things of us. What do you know of dreams of demons or whether or not they have them?" he said as his tone turned icy. Shame was replaced by repressed rage at the priestess angel.

"As for how I refer to myself it is also none of your concern. As I've said thing and one are merely just words that are meaningless. I care not how you perceive them. Nor are you at liberty to tell me how I am to refer to myself. You are not my superior nor are we equal in the eyes of demons" he said as his tone remained rather icy. It was clear that his mood had taken a bit of a sour turn.

"If you really must call me something my name is Janen, not that it should matter much of what you call me by. I don't plan on associating much with angels" he said simply closing his eyes. He had no desire to continue to see any angels at the moment, including this one.

Penelope Took Zeaks hand and walked down the stepps with him. She turned to Phoenix before speaking. "Zeak and I will go to the prince. Please gather everything you may need and who you may need, im afraid we may be in a rush about now!" She said before picking up the bottem of her dress to reveal her sparkling sliver slippers . "Im alredy fearing for the worst about now!" She muttered and hurried off towards where Talon, Damien, and Sikura had all gone off too.

Zeak fallowed closly behind the princess. he opened the outside dor for her and lead her towards the lava encirled Gazebo. "Now waht my lady? I dont know about you but my demonic powers are not at al strong enough to make us a hole to get through." he stated looking down at penelope. She had the most deturmind face and was thinking again. Without warning however she stepped up to the challange and slapped her hands together and created a bubble inbetwwn her hands that expanded as she spred her arms.
"a Barrior, I should hope it works!" He said as he watched her work her magic.

Penelope had made a perfecr bluish purple sphear that she hoped would create an opening in the lava so that she may stepp through.
"im now wondering if we should just yell at them!" She stated hopeing she wasnt wasting her energy to just have this lava flow cut off like a fouten. She could here zeak give a laugh at her statment. It wasnt at all funny, she hadent used her powers in such a long time that it was sort of strenious using them now.
