Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Agh!" Liam yelled at the high-pitched ringing in his ears. Something was calling, but not for him, for the darkness inside of him. He didn't understand, but the noise in his ears was enough to drive him mad. The darkness forced him to take a step, and when he retaliated it struck him with a surging pain. His wings ejected from his shoulder blades, the black liquid oozing down his back. Eyes black and teeth clenched, he launched into the air towards the call, the darkness controlling him to do so.

Leila nodded in response with a weak smile. "This better not hurt more than the pain I'm already in, or you're in for it."

Violet jerked and stepped away from Miu, her wrist seeming to burn as the angel touched her.
"I'm going, end of discussion," she replied, practically spitting out the words. Seeing Leila outof the corner of her eye she snarled in disgust, her grinning face looking insane.
"You call yourself a demon? You who ignore the call. Your nothing better then an animal," she sneered then continued to walk away. She'd find what was causing the darkness, it was comforting after holding back around the others for so long. She was so intent on finding the calling that she didn't notice Crystal following her.

" Mmnn... Some ones coming...." The red eyed man mumbled, looking at the symbol pulsate some more. He sensed the presence of other dark beings starting to emerge. Smiling again, Steffen decided he would not have to wait long.

Reaching into a small chest pocket, he pulled out a pearly white stone. It was fashioned into a smooth ovular shape and hissed on contact with his skin. Steffen swore and dropped the stone, scowling at the object.

"Vile Peice of rubbish. I have half a mind to toss you into the pits of hell and watch you shatter." The threat was an idle one, after all even though the stone was a small holy token it did not infact belong to him. The demon bent over and picked the stone back up with a pitchblack silken kerchief. He scowled once more and tucked it away, back in the shirt pocket. Having it on his person at all times caused him no small amount of discomfort, but He kept the stone for a specific reason. It was best to suffer now and achieve his goal.

Aggitated by the burn that now graced his palm, Steffen Ground his hand into the wall, enjoying the pain that the bits of grit and dirt created when they shredded the palm apart.

" Oh dear, Now I've gone and ruined my hand!" He hissed, still dragging the hand, palm down over the rough surface. Lifting it back up, he stared at the blood that bubbled up out of the wounds. Sniffing in disgust, he ran the hand over his hair and simpy slicked it back. The damage mattered little to him, after all Demons healed quickly.

"Ah. Here we go." Eyes shifted forward as Steffen realized there was some one almost upon his location. "my kindred..."

"You're right... We've gotta find out what's going on with Violet, you... and I think Liam as well. I think it affects only demons, and the dark energy inside him might count. It might not be him who's choosing to go, but he's being dragged along into it." He sighed. "I've got a spy of sorts following Violet at the moment, so we should be able to find them fairly easily. We just gotta do it fast enough so there's no lasting damage on you. I'm impressed with your resistance, by the way. Not many can withstand that much mental strain, there was a lot there."

Liam was fast, gliding through the air with forceful speed. He looked below, his black eyes catching a glowing symbol on the wall of a building. Darkness pulled him towards it, and the closer he got a man came better into view. When his bare feet touched the ground he walked slwoly over to him and the wall. He looked down to his bare chest and stomach when he felt a slight burning. It was the cross that was etched into his hip, it was.. bubbling. He looked up at the man, meeting his red eyes. His hand gripped tightly on his scythe, which had somehow managed to stay in his hand.

He stood up. "You're sure you don't need anything else? Well... If you need me, I won't be too far, I'll come shortly. I'll try to put an end to whatever it is."

He began to walk off, though still not too far away. Crystal. I'm coming now. Can you send me your location?

No problem. I'm not quite there yet, though. But here you go. Instantly, Dream was able to sense Crystal's aura. He looked in the direction she was indicating, and started walking that way.
