(sorry she didnt know bout the double post rule its fixed now.)

Alana looked at him with a worried expression. SHe had no idea what was going on. SHe wondered if damian or Lucifer had anything to do with this. She frowned a moment.

"Yes you can Elizabeth an angels kiss can cure anything unless it is divine punishment."

She stepped back and pushed the angel girl forward.

"Give it a try I guess."

Phoenix listened with a bit of curiosity. She wouldn't mind getting a glimpse of the hell hound but she was a bit surprised it had been allowed to come. "Do you know why it was summoned?" she asked curious. She thought about the scream and hoped that everyone was okay. She couldn't do much at the moment so she wasn't going to let herself fret over something she could not help with. The priestess was somewhere around here and could heal them if necessary.

(Lol it's ok, you're just learning and everyone makes mistakes. You're doing fine. :D)

Talon shook his head as he managed to temporarily clear his mind. "I wouldn't advise...that. It's painful enough being touched with a hand..." he said gently as he moved a little to the other side. He had remembered the immense jolts of pain that had been sent through his body when the Princess had touched him, he didn't even want to think what a kiss would do.

Janen shook his head at Phoenix's question. "I have no idea, though I have a feeling that my Commander had already known about the summons. It may very well have been the reason he had sent me to retrieve you from Hell rather than him doing it himself. I can't be entirely sure though" the white haired demon said calmly as he remained beside the angel. He wasn't looking forward to seeing the Hell hound as he didn't particularly like the mutt. He knew that whenever Talon wasn't around he became the next best chew toy, and so it caused him to avoid he three headed beast as much as possible.

she thought to herself i might as well its bad enough hes hallucinating but now this. so she just went ahead and just did it.

((where exactly are phoenix and janen walking too, lol. just realized I didnt know NEVERMIND gonna work it into my post XP))

Alana frowned watching Talon argue and then seeing the angel girl just kiss him. She chuckled a bit. She knew it would hurt but hopefully in the long run it would heal him. She went over to him and looked at him trying to see if there was any difference.

(Lol well Talon's outside of the 'entrance' that Cerberus made when he entered the ballroom so possibly there. XD)

Talon reeled back in pain as the angelic aura came into contact with his skin technically. It felt as if someone had slowly started to peel away his skin with their nails and then took a nice to carve off more. Had he not his blue eye then perhaps it wouldn't have been all that bad or if his patch had been in place rather than around Alana's wing as it still acted as a bandage for the wound that had once been on her wing, but it was that one cursed thing and the fact that his patch was not in place that made the experience immensely painful, and had crossed his pain tolerance line. His good wing shook but immediately moved to cover and shelter the demon's face and a small section of his upper torso. He hated expressing pain on his features as he felt it was a show of weakness.

Zeak was again startled awake this time by the princess. He jummped about 20 feet and was prepaired to kill who ever was making Penleop scream so loud but foudn that she was sitting straght up in the bed her hands clutching her hair and her scream dieing to a whimper. confused zeak went and climbed on the bed to sit next to penelope.
"Whats wrong, what happened!" Zeak asked urgently. he watched as penelope shook her head and repeated "shes dead, mothers dead." this of course shocked him, he didnt quite understand how the queen could possibly be dead. But insted of trying to figuar it out he wrapped his arms around the poor girl and cradeled her as she began to cry into him. A knock cam at the door and zeak could tell it was the prestess angel and the fallen Talon had become attached to. He ignored them knowing penelope was in no state to see anyone.
"Shhh, princess its alright!" he cooed gentlyas she cried into him. "Its alright princess!" he continued untill she had cried herself to sleep. With a small sigh zeak quietly left the room and wondred down to the ball room. He had heard Curberus howeling over penelops scream and figuard he would applogize to the dog and any who was now up due to the princess and the dog.

elizabeth said" i hope hes ok." then turned away.

Alana frowned a moment. It didnt seem to be helping. SHe thought of something then. She reached behind her and pulled off the eyepatch that he had used to mend her wing some time ago. Her wing was better now. SHe went up to him and put his eyepatch back on him.

She thought maybe being around all these angelic auras might be causing him his problems.

Phoenix paused for a moment, looked at Janen and said, "Sorry I just assumed Sir Talon was in the ballroom and headed that way. Would you know where he is?" She could have smacked herself. Never assume anything, even small details. Asking questions and gaining knowledge usually kept you alive longer than assuming.

((short post, w00t))

Talon could feel the familiar cloth that was his patch being placed over his eye again. It had been a few hours since he had, had the patch placed on and over his eye and it was a bit of relief as the amount of angelic aura that he could see decreased a fair amount. He could still feel the throb of pain coursing through him, as it would be a few moments until the pain subsided completely. Again at his love's touch he thought he felt the temperature rising and things becoming uncomfortably warm, although he did open his eyes a bit. He couldn't see any signs of the floating fish that he had been seeing before, which was a relief to him.

Janen stopped and closed his eyes for a moment. "I believe you were headed in the right direction. Although I don't think that he's specifically in the ballroom but he appears to be right near it. Either way I believe we are going in the right way so your assumption was correct" he said calmly though with a slight look of possible reassurance.

Alana smiled as she saw that his features were no longer wracked with pain as before.

"Im so sorry Talon. I forgot that was on my wing. It never occured to me to give it back to you. I would never be a source of pain to you if I knew that I could help it. Please forgive me."

She sighed. Once again she messed up and caused her love to suffer pain.

"Okay, if I start going the wrong way you can just steer me in the correct one once we get closer," she said to him. The stopping had been nice and had given her a small moment to regain some energy. Phoenix knew that as soon as she presented herself to Talon she would have to sit and figured out what other little traps Zenos had set in her own mind. Phoenix could be very determined. She tried to ignore the fact that she weighed, to herself anyways, twice as much as normal and pressed forward toward the ballroom.

Talon's body still continued to shake as the pain slowly started to subside from his body. "It's...alright..." he said quietly. Again his tone held no anger nor any indication he was upset at her in the least. He took a few calmly breaths and allowed his wing to move free from his upper half as his features seemed to once more appeared his normal calm. Carefully he moved and once more sat up so that his back rested against the wall. "I know...you wouldn't...it's alright" he said with a calm smile.

Janen calmly nodded his head showing that he understood fully. "Don't worry I'll be sure to let you know. I can tell you that you will for sure you know you're going the right way when you see a giant three headed mutt" he said with a joking laugh. He seemed to like this angel a bit better than he did the priestess angel. Phoenix didn't have a high and mighty air about her like the other one did, instead she seemed rather...normal. Perhaps that was why he could tolerate her. That and she didn't ask or assume things about the demonic race. He wondered if perhaps she wasn't quite as curious about his kind or if she already knew things that the other angel hadn't. He wasn't aware that she had been the spy that had gotten away like Talon was.

Phoenix let out a soft ripple of laughter at what Janen said. With a soft smile on her face she said as she walked, "I have always heard stories of cerberus but it will be interesting to be able to see it with my own eyes. Stories are nice but they never do justice to who or what ever it's about. I find it enjoyable to see and learn things first hand, if the opportunity is there."

There were getting closer to the ballroom and she could hear people now. Phoenix made sure to conceal her aura to be polite to any who it may bother. She tried not to show it but she was a bit disappointed that they were getting closer to the ballrom She was actually enjoying her time with Janen. He did not talk incessantly and seemed respectful enough if given respect in return.

Alana sighed and kept her eyes downcast. She loved him so much and yet she had done so much to hurt him. She wanted to hug and kiss him but was afraid to. She turned around and walked away slowly. She didnt know what to do. She had broken his trust and hurt him so much that he probably could have died from it. SHe was a horrible person.

Verahdona

Verah was silent as everytihng went on, her tail swishing slowly, careful not the come in contact with anyone. Her eyes looked over the fallen, Alana, her being slightly familiar yet she shrugged it off. Being a fallen meant she was once an angel, so there should be no way that they were related. Seeing the new angel she innerly sighed in disgust, yet couldnt help but smirk as she saw the kiss between her and Talon. The bat winged demons pain stricken face was to die for. Good thing he like pain, but sadly, she wasnt sure if this was the kind he enjoyed.

Talon gaze followed Alana as she turned and started walking away slowly. Calmly he let out a sigh and shook his head. "It seems I've done something wrong yet again" he said with a chuckle. He was a bit relieved that his patch had been returned. His eyes carefully glanced over at the angel and then went to his comrade. "You'll have to excuse me for a moment" he said with a calm look as he stood up. He wobbled a bit for a few moments though regained his balance within moments. He then proceeded to follow after Alana and it hadn't taken him too long to catch up to her. Gently he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her back against his body as he put his mouth close to her ear. "Leaving me again love?" he asked quietly as he moved and kissed her neck.

Janen respected the angel's words. He was indeed glad that Phoenix would rather find out things then make incorrect assumptions. "Yes I will say the stories that have been created about that mutt have been completely blown out of proportion in some sense. The beast is more playful than anything, although he seems to have a great affinity for Commander Talon, so if he does try anything usually putting the mutt's attention on him works pretty good" he said with a chuckle. He too could hear that he was getting close, and he could indeed hear the pants of the three headed dog. He wasn't sure if his Commander was there distracting the beast, but he figured they would both find out soon enough.

She jumped when he grabbed her and looked at him curiously over her shoulder. SHe turned around and gave him a hug kissing his neck.

"Im sorry for what ive done to you. I just had to know what that contract was about and you wouldnt tell me no matter what I did. I love you so much Talon. I never meant to hurt you."

She gazed up at his face lovingly and kept her arms wrapped around his body. He did mean a lot to her. She didnt know what she would do without him.

(( so what exactly will phoenix see when she walks into the ballroom, I was kinda hoping you would lead them in since you knew what was going on, lol. No worries though . . just don't know what to expect))

(Essentially a giant three headed dog laying in the middle of the floor with a snake tail wrapped around the angel Amalia who is being nuzzled by the tail head and scratching the chin of two of the three dog heads. There is also a huge hole that leads outside in the shape of Cerberus since he entered through breaking through the wall. XD)

Talon gently kissed and nipped her neck as he listened to her words. Once she had finished speaking he moved his mouth to her ear. "Next time love either simply let it drop or let me have some satisfaction. You've backed me up quite a bit. Even now I'm barely able to stop myself from simply jumping you now. Hurt me all you want, I can withstand pain just let me have a little satisfaction too" he whispered quietly in her ear before lightly chewing on it. He too loved her more than anything and would willing do almost anything for her. He knew there were certain thing he couldn't do, and he had plenty of other things that for the meantime he would keep quiet about.

She laughed quite suddenly at this statement.

"Its not that easy to seduce a temptress love. Your going to have to try a little bit harder than that."

She kept tight hold of him and snuggled deep into his chest. She loved him but didnt mean she was going to make anything easy for him including his quest for satisfaction.

Phoenix let out a small laugh giving Janen a teasing look and replied, "I assume it's safe to say you know this from personal experience." She could just picture Janen sticking the hell hound on his commander.

She stepped to the door way of the ballroom and looked out at the crowd. Janen had been correct in the fact that the huge dog was very hard to miss. Phoenix let the awe show on her face as her eyes flicked over the creature taking in it's image. Things were so much better when seen with your own eyes. She smiled and laughed again saying, "Now I feel a bit sorry for your commander if he has that thing going after him all the time."

It was then that she noticed the huge hole in the wall that was roughly the same size and shape as the hell hound. She would have pointed but she was holding the wall with the only arm that was currently working. Phoenix nodded toward the hole and said, "He knows how to make quite the entrance."

Talon raised an eyebrow at her statement. "Oh so now I have to seduce you? That's a rather impossible task you've sent me on, without me getting a bit more adventurous in my wanderings. I would have thought you'd prefer that in the privacy of a room rather than out in the open, but I'm really up for either I suppose" he whispered gently in her ear. His mouth though moved to kiss her ear and once more moving down her neck and slowly down towards her chest as his hands slowly started making a sensual pattern, starting at her stomach and making his way down.

Janen chuckled quietly as Phoenix mentioned him saying something from experience. "Yes you could say I've done it a few times out of revenge sometimes. It's actually quite comical" he said with another chuckle. He calmly continued to walk beside the angel.

His gaze turned forward as they entered the ballroom. He could clearly see the three headed hound and what looked like an angel wrapped securely in his tail. "It seems that he may have found another friend" he said nodding his head towards the direction of the angel and the beast. His gaze moved then as he tried to located exactly where his Commander was. He hadn't quite noticed the giant hole until the angel pointed it out. "Yes he does indeed know how to make quite an entrance. Things are never dull with that mutt around" he said with a sigh.
