Violet stared at the young demon, and muttered a string of demonic expletives so foul that for a moment the shadows in the alleys grew darker. Reaching to her side she pulled out the thin, silver rapier. She pointed it threateningly to Leila, her grin making her look insane.
"Don't you DARE bring my parents into this. You can say all the insults you want about me, but if you bring them into this I won't be held responcible for my actions. Besides, at the end of the day...at least i'm acting like a demon. Look at yoourself, then tell me who's hiding because of a reputation," she'd noticed Leila's hair shifting and moving, unfortunatly, she'd gotten her too mad for her to see sense.

Dream sighed. The light of battle faded from his eyes, and he began to see sense again. He placed himself directly between Violet and Leila, looking to neither of them, but off to the side with his eyes closed. "Both of you, just please stop. This isn't getting any of us anywhere. Leila, I know you can't stand Violet at the moment, but try to get over it. Violet, I know Leila's getting to you. You're smart enough to know to ignore it."
He slowly took out the hilt of his saber, activating the yellow, plasma-like blade. "And I'm afraid I can't let either of you harm each other."

Violet stepped back even further, letting out a bat like shriek. She didn't turn her back on Dream or Leila, but brought her wings around to shield her eyes and hastiyl put on her sunglasses.
"That was a cheap trick from someone so high and mighty," she spat at him, the anger still not leaving her.
"Your acting like your so neautral in all of this, we ll guess what your not. You've chosen your side in an old war on a planet that isn't even your own." she muttered, her voice silky if cold.

He blinked, and looked at his blade. It didn't seem that bright to him. Perhaps Violet was just a lot more sensitive to light than he though. "That wasn't meant to be a trick, I honestly forgot the light bothered you." He sheathed the saber with a click of a button. "And... you're right. I have chosen a side, the side I believe deserves to be chosen. Though this is not my planet, I aim to protect it as if it were."

Violet laughed, the sound hollow and sarcastic.
"In other words your a nosey idiot who feels he can push in anywhere and take over. How long have you been on this world anyway? You've picked the wrong side Dream, and your going to regret it." turning her back on them she rose up into the sky, her grin widening again as looked at them from above.
"I'm tired of talking to you, none of you make sense and you obviously lack and logical reasoning. I'll see you later, if your still alive later anyway," she called with a small bow.

Dream stared at her. "Logical reasoning, you say? On the contrary, I thrive in it. Perhaps you just don't have the ability to see it from a different point of view. Believe me, I see yours. You believe all creatures to be inferior to yourself, because you have yet to see any good reason to make friends or trust in others. Whether this is caused by a lack of friends in general, or betrayal by those you once cared about, I have no idea. I just know you're missing out on a few important qualities." He paced the ground, still looking at her. "Maybe you're right, maybe I am making a bad decision. Maybe I am a nosy idiot. It's not my place to decide for sure."

"Stop it," she murmured, looking away. Quickly looking back at him she stared him straight in the eye and yelled,
"Just STOP it!" she'd been in a lot of people's heads, she'd seen what they dreamed of and what they feared. She appeared more angry then upset, but Dream and Leila's words were getting to her. Sneering she stayed still in the air, flapping her bat like wings occasionally to stop herself from falling.
"You know nothing about how a demon's mind works! I am missing nothing, I have no need for friends and have all the qualities I need!" Once she'd finished yelling to Dream she turned in the air and began to fly away, going high over the city. She didn't want to hear what they had to say anymore, didn't want to be analysed.

Dream watched her go, then turned to Leila. "Sorry if I made her leave, I just couldn't have her hurt you or anyone else here. Your well-being comes way before knowing exactly what they're up to." He sighed. It was true: he had very little experience in the ways demons thought. However, the opposite was true as well. Violet could never understand how his mind worked. They were just too different, that was all.

Holly watched the whole exchance quietly and observing. When Violet reacted to Dream's saber, she gave a small look of surprise and confusion. That light really wasn't very strong.....
With a glance at Dream, she nodded to herself. She could understand Dream's rationalization. Violence beget violence and everyone would be hurt if a fight broke out.

(( hey hey guys! totally got the situation undercontrol now and I can get back to posing regularly. Sorry to hav been gone so long! can't let the good guys outnumber the bad guys TOO much. and sorry for the long posty, I just wanted to get Steffen back in there.))
At the reply to his mental message Steffen rolled his eyes, or rather would have had he been any sort of tangible being at the moment.
It took him very little time to pinpoint the location of his fello demon, but it seems he was a little too late in arriving. It could be such a chore dealing with those from the light spectrum...but such trivial matters did have to be taken care of.
Having appeared just as the small scuffle came to a close he sneered, white teeth glittering between curved lips.
" Darling sister, you are a magnificent creature..." he cooed, loud enough for any one in the area to hear. Taking the time to straighten his stiff black collar Steffen sent Violet one more mental message. " I shall catch up to you shortley, It seems we have much more work to do than expected."
He Took timed and almost dainty steps toward the group that was obviously the point of his problem. "Good evening" The demon said in an even tone, his red eyes focusing unnervingly. Raising both hands infront of his body, Steffen showed that he ment the group no harm.
"Hello again brother" He recognize Liam, then nodded to each of the others in a similar fashion. A much keener form of deception was going to be needed in this instance, one that involved polite mannerisms.

"It's alright, Dream...I let my temper get the better of me..." That was when Leila noticed the arrival of the newcomer, a man that gave her the chills for some strange reason. The way he spoke and carried himself...his politeness didn't seem to match with the rest of it. But from what he said, it gave her some hint as to what he was.
"Liam is no longer your brother..." she said softly. "There is nothing else you need here, demon..."

Violet was so suprised when she recieved Steffan's message that she dropped several feet in the air. Shivering slightly at the thought of having the lord in her head she descended in a gliding swoop. Landing on the top of an old house. It was large and made of a hard, grey stone and cold to the touch. Sitting down Violet pulled her knees to her chest and wrapped her wings around herself, almost like a cocoon.

Dream observed the newcomer, recognising him instantly. He was there when he gave the original assignment to the others, though he wasn't sure if he knew Dream or not. He may have seen him, he may have not. It didn't really matter too much. He would not do anything to him unless he showed some kind of violence to them. If there was one thing he would never do, it would be to start a fight.
He glanced over to Leila. "Just a moment, let's hear what he has to say." With that, he smiled at Steffen. "What brings you here, then?"

Holly, who was usually quite oblivious when those of darkness were around, shuddered. She didn't like what she was sensing from this demon. His powers of darkness nearly threatened to swallow her light completely. Concentrating on strength, she drew up a small amount of light and added it to her normal radiance.
With a nearly non-existant sigh of relief, she gave the approaching conversation her attention.

Steffen continued to grin. " Ahh, not so my pretty thing. No matter what one does to rid yourself of the darkness, it always leaves a touch of it with you...He can tell you himself." A dark haired head tilted it's self to the side, almost as if he invited Leila to ask Liam herself. " Though, I daresay, That it has become a small inconvinience for my kin to have.. how do you say it...."
A pink tongue shot into view and licked the thin, cruel lips. " turned coat?"
The pleasant smile that the demon wore almost mocked the words that streamed from his mouth. His attention was on Dream now.
"I do not expect those of you from this world...or the next." he added begrudgingly as he realized he spoke to otherworldly beings. " To take what I have to say well..but isn't life full of unpleasantries?" Steffen traced one of the intricate designs on his collar with pink digits, eyes flirting from one member of the group to the other. There was a dramatic pause thrown in there for flare, It was one of his weaknesses after all, Steffen's love of the dramatic and showy. " The Prince of darkness has his own plans for this world. With there being no boundaries between the planes... it is only 'right' that one power should conquer over this drab limbo." he did not pause any longer in the monologue, not wishing to be interrupted. " I am here to offer you this chance to join with me, with the lord of hell and his host. It surprises me that so many of my kin walk with this group, leading me to think maybe there is a collective sense in it."
Steffen was finished for the time being, eyes settling on Dream now as he seemed to the leader of this motley crew.
(( Damn is he wordy))
