Crystal looked at her and smiled. ('Smiled' is a figure of speech in this case, as it 1. does not have a mouth to smile with and 2. is veiled so that even if it did, it would not be visible anyway. What actually happenes is she radiates a soft aura of happiness directed to the person she is looking to, in this case, Vannessa.) Thank you. I didn't catch your name before, who are you?
Dream laughed at his little fairy friend. She did look weak, and in fact she was fairly weak, but there were few he'd rather have by his side. She was surprisinly intelligent, even if she didn't show it, and she was the best scout he could ever wish for. If he had to choose someone to give him accurate information and advice, Crystal would be at the top of his list.
He sighed at Violet as Vanessa took off. "I really don't think she understands what she just got herself into..." He rose up a few feet. "Do you know where the barrier is? You are the one who went through it, after all."

Violet looked back to Dream, her emerald eyes locked onto his. Slowly she nodded.
"It's pretty close actually. When the barrier broke it was like a mirror, fragments of the gates got scattered. The best way to get between from here is an underground station," she explained softly. As she spoke she kept Vanessa in her field of vision, she may tease the girl whenever she could but she didn't want her to be killed. Shaking her head a little she added,
"Thats the route i would take, unless Crystal has a better suggestion?"

"Oh, I'm Vanessa. And just cause I might not be as strong or know my way around as well as you guys, but that doesn't mean I can't defend myself." She said, turning to Violet and Dream.

Crystal was too far up for her to hear, so Dream replayed her message to her telepathically. (She always kept a link open to him, as he couldn't make them himself, only use preexisting ones.) She replied to him, and he conveyed her message back to Violet. "Crystal says that she really has no idea how she would do it besides to just go search the area for disturbances, go see where the most sightings are, etc. She'd rather follow your direction there, as you passed through it and she didn't. I agree, actually, I think that that will work." He thought about it. "I don't see why it wouldn't."
He called to Crystal. Tell her to come down to us, we're going to be going underground to find it.
Okay, then. She looked at Vanessa. Hello, then, Vannessa. Nice to meet you. Violet thinks she found a good route, so we're going to follow her.

((I'm going to try and give the others a chance to join us a bit, so sorry if this is going to seem really slow and stuff sweatdrop ))
Violet nodded and glided silently back to the ground. With a rustling sound that resembled tissue paper being scrunched up she folded her wings again, making them as flat as possible against her back. Waiting for the others to follow she looked around for the nearest sign to the underground. They were still in a pretty residential area, some flats just at the end of the street.
'Vanessa, you may be capable of protecting yourself on earth, but in Hell it'll be a lot harder. I'm already a wanted demon...i can't afford to bring attention to myself trying to save you. Please take it into consideration when we're down there' she told Vanessa telepathically.

Dream didn't hear the message, so he just followed Violet to the ground. Luckilly for himself, he wasn't wanted in Hell, but if something happened, he probably would be pretty fast. Then again, if they killed him, he'd escape within milliseconds. Death was a lot more complex in an otherworld. If you died there, you would pretty much vanish or gain immortality, depending on which you died in. And once you entered, you never came out... until now. He smiled. Not quite as complicated as he thought.

Waiting for the others Violet saw Dreams face.
"I don't know what your smiling about. I think your the first person i've met who smiled at the thought of suicide, not including work obviously," she told him. Her frozen grin made it difficult to frown but she was certianly putting up a good effort.

He shrugged. "It's just my nature. I don't fear death, only the death of others. Which I will do all I can to prevent. Anyway, I never leave myself without options. I've always got some kind of backup around me that nobody ever sees or suspects. So we're pretty safe for the time." He sighed. "Don't think I'm not serious about this, though. I might not seem like it, but I'm not going to take any risks, either for me or any of you guys."

(Sorry i g2g now, byes!)
Violet nodded slowly.
"I know you'll be smart about this at least, plus you can use your light to get out of harsm way," she replied. Looking around she continued telepathically
'Vanessa on the otherhand, i can't help but worry. Once i feed of a person its hard not to care about what happens to them, don't ask me how it works because i don't know. She's probably got the power, but if she goes mad we could have all of Hell on our tails,'

He used her link to continue talking to her, as it probably wasn't a great idea for Vanessa to listen in. Luckilly, telepathy couldn't be overheard. She does have the power and courage to do it... but she doesn't really have the wisdom. Sure, she's smarter than most humans, but she's still not exactly the most sensible person in the world. And you're right, if she does go mad in there, there might be a problem.

Haucon raised an eyebrow at the man. He waved back...his mind said laughing at him. You were worried, and he waved at you. HAHAHAHA! He fought to keep from laughing. He advanced, still a bit wary, unwilling to be so certain. "Hi." he said finally. "Er...You're rather unusual...What business do you have here?" he asked trying to sound neutral.

Vanessa lowered herself to the ground, sulking. "I'll be fine..." She said softly.

He looked at her. "I still don't think you're quite ready for this... I need to test you a bit more first." He thought about it. "What is the most important tool one can have? Not like weapon tools, but like tools like skill, strength, etc."

He seemed friendly, and as he talked to him it seemed he lost a bit of tension. Unusual.. he thought slightly to himself, looking down at himself. No wonder why, he had huge gray wings and a scythe, not to mention all he was really wearing was a pair of black pants and his bandages and was quite dirty. He looked up at the man, realizing he was waiting for an answer. It felt as though he hadn't talked for decades. He opened his mouth slowly, as though he was afraid dust would fly out of his mouth. "I have no business anywhere," he said rather emotionlessly. He watched the man.

"Well, in hell, it's probably wisdom and skill." Vanessa said, unsure.
