Bagarth sighed when Antoinetta ran to her side. The girl, at least to Bagarth Antoinetta was a girl, was bored. Grath was being a hypocrite. Perhaps, the demon leader was jealous that most would run at his appearrance and was unable to do what Ann could do. This particular human had not yet... but the man had no choice.
She patted the girl on the head. If Vandor hadn't interfered, she was certain Ann would have gotten the job done. Perhaps, not as fast since Ann couldn't teleport. Though Vandor was respected to some extent, the seer was in a way similar to Haitian; a demon who was no doubt useful but wanted to be even more highly respected. Bagarth had grown used to Vandor's presence, but it seemed that the man had lost his life's purpose in life a long time ago.
The Devil didn't react when Noktal patted her cheek and went to inspect Alaric's weapon. It was so like Noktal to be fascinated by weapons. She herself had some fascination with certain aspects of human technology and culture, but when it came to weapons, Noktal's interest was greater than hers. Bagarth was, however, eyeing the probe. Would that spear cut through a magic shield? This floating orb, is it recording anything, and should we let it?

Antoinetta sat perched on a small chair, eyes scanning the movements of the room. She now studied curiously in earnest the man in front of her. She had never seen such human contraptions. It made them seem...lifeless and cold, something she hated. Humanity had an innocent sort of beauty that Ann enjoyed, but this man seemed to have none of that.

((Great Goddess! I missed a lot. Stupid glitches made me stop checking the story for updates. Gah! Can someone give me a quick run down on what I missed and summon Haitian for something? Anything. I don't mind. I just need to get him back in this story. Oh! And if people are wondering, you can assume he's in his chambers in bed, underneath a pile of sleeping demons and demonesses))

((Nevermind. I'll just have Haitian still in the meeting room. Disregard my last post.))
Haitian phased through a wall and leaned against a wall in the shadows. The Lord's 'sin stare' (as he called it), had caused him to pass out. It's a good thing I didn't cry out though. He thought, chuckling. He winced and clutched at his chest. Although, I think it might have injured something... He sighed and smirked a little, his fangs so white they seemed almost luminescent and glowing in the dark. He was still a little groggy, but his devilish playful charm was still intact. Although, not so much his pride, regardless if he hadn't cried out. But that made him feel as if he'd gotten stronger since his 'baptism', so he felt somewhat better. He hid in the shadows and looked around, taking note at the new demoness and Bagarth and the like. How long was I out? He wondered to himself.

"I don't suppose you come here to seek help against the celestials because of the stunt you pulled. The one with the massive weapon. I must aplaud the fact that you harmed even in the slightest my greastest enemy. Good job for that. Well since you have given good reason I will tell you my terms. I want control of your army. At least when I need it. If I do not need you, do what ever it is you wish. Call on us as much as you like and we will help. If we call on you, you do the same. However all I wish is that if I have a plan, that I am granted full ownership of your forces. Worry not however. I will mix your forces with ours evenlly. So if the plan fails, we both feel the effects. Is that reasonable enough Alaric?"

 Alaric Zarkov Alaric looked over at the demon that had offered them terms and well humanity was needed any support it could use from this point forward seeing as there numbers were small compared to any others. " Your terms are accept, and you will be informed of our numbers soon enough" Alaric said as he relaxed just a little. His probe was still there scanning and recording the events that happened before it and would attempt to send it back when it could. " It is done, is there anything else you require or should I take my leave and return to Terra" Alaric asked. It was done from this point forward humanities fate rested in the hand of demons, it was an comforting thought but in the same time it was a glimmer of hope for humanity. The celestial did not want to reason with humanity and were blinded by there arrogance to a degree and these demons seemed more human in a way. Those where the thoughts that ran through his mind. Alaric stood there at attention and waited to see what the demon would do with him next, either talk more or send him on his way, or so that is what he though the options were.

Grathrym pondered if there was anything that needed to be done by the human before he was ent back to the desolate remnants of Earth. "Well I may not know of your numbers now. However I do wish for you to do two things. One not only give me a head count, but also a technology count. I want a list of evry technilogical advancement you have had since this war started. I also want someone to try and rate the threat it poes to the celestials. Then as a sign of my gratitude I will build you your own base here. It will be great and magnificant. You give me acomedations to which your people want and I will build that. But before I send you home. I do want you to silently enter the land of Angels and plant any kind of security device you may have. A probe like that or anything. It would be easier to fight if we knew what was happening.

Vandor looked at Grathrym. "There are angels everywhere there. Angels guard the portal. Recruits have been trained around the portal. The likely-hood of him entering the base, undetected, and planting a probe, is around 10.12 percent." He looked at the man and the floating skull above him, his eyes full of black, it could be hard to tell where he was staring. "They will kill him immediately, or worse."

 Alaric Zarkov Alaric thought for a moment, there might be a way for them to get a probe threw the portal for now but it would be quite tricky in the end. " It can be done, I just need to consult with some of our engineering about the matter" he said sounding confident. Although he did have to agree with the demon that did take him here, he seemed most reasonable when it came to matters like this." A probe could be launched through the portal, it would take a few of them seeing as they might get destroyed" Alaric added. With the invention of some stealth technologies and small probes they could flood the celestial plane with them to observe there action. Although another idea popped into his head, " or we could turn one of them into a probe, but that might be difficult" he said in a dark tone. He also grinned a little at the thought and there scientist would like to play around with the celestials.

"I have a question Vandor. You of course can see the future correct?" Grathrym did not wait fora response. "Tell me. Have you seen this? Can you honestly tell me that he wll not survive? Who even said we would send him in through the front door. We have teleporters and I can go a short distance into the area to open a portal from here. All he needs to do is wait for the chance to hop into the world and plant a probe. Now tell me again Vandor. What are his chances of survival?"

"I can only see mine. My future. I am not apart of his. Not yet." he looked at the man, wondering if he would continue with him or not. "There is a thing you call destiny. I choose not to disrupt the normal flow of things, or else my visions would be completely changed."

"Then please Vandor, from now on. Keep your mouth shut. I respect you and your powers. You are almost trustworthy, but still, you must learn when time is to speak and when not to. Even if he is atacked. An open portal into the demon relam is more then enough of a space entrance for us to attack back you know." Grathrym looked at the human. "What say you? Are you willing to drop your probe off in the world of celestials? Forget not that this would benefit us both in the end." Grathrym felt rather proud of the fact that he made the allience. Now they had something the celestials didnt. they had an ally, and the very weapons that harmed the Archangel of Archangels, Rael. That was something grand and large in scale indeed. Grathrym may have found his ace in the hole finally.

Vandors face twitched, a slight look of anger coming on his face. "I was only trying to protect the human, which we are now allied with. It would be a shame if he went in there under your command and was slain." He said this slightly angrily, but his solemn tone overshadowed it for the most part.

"Im sure he would be fine. And if he was discovered it would work to our advantage. Even ambushed by any size force of angels the Devil lord any of us could destroy them. Of course it would be me seeing as how I never have any fun these days. Im sure that Alaric would feel safe to some degree with the Lord of Darkness at his back... Trying to protect him of course. Not destroy him." Grathrym smiled slyly not knowing if he himself was trying to instill fear of a betrayal in the human or if he just liked the though of stretching his scythe arm. maybe even be able to test some new inventions or a few of his new powers.

"You are sure? After the survival percentage I gave you?" he shook his head. "If you want an ally's death on your hands go ahead." Vandors hands moved as he spoke. "I won't stop you."
