Ye be warned. -Continuing from last time...- When they arrived, things were quiet, but the boy had not yet gone to bed. They waited and kept themselves carefully concealed at a great distance, with Da'are occasionally helping Zack to look into the house with her unnatural eyes. It would have been difficult for the two to know when exactly the boy had fallen asleep and not just gone to bed, but Da'are seemed sure that she could tell when he was based on the symbols she saw around him. Based on this, Zack and Joseph travelled back to the house and Zack unlocked the door skillfully, quickly pulling Joseph in after him and shutting the door and locking it behind them. From now on out, they would have to be silent. Ekvail and Da'are offered to project any messages they had back and forth between the two of them so that they didn't have to speak. The search had begun. She swam a few laps and such and after a while got tired, so she went to the edge of the pool and rested her head on her arms, passing out still in the pool, waiting for the guys to get back... I hope he used his power to have a glove over his hands, it would be weird to find a dead mans finger prints on a door. As for you I'm sure you look just as good in your demon form, but thats for later right now I'm not to great at stealth so ill keep on mind work you control the body okay that will be our plan. Joseph was a little shaky after all he was gonna kill a little kid he had feelings about it but didn't matter it was punishment for his sins, but he would do almost anything for his lust sin. Da'are sighed. Joseph was taking to his inner sanctuary more and more. It wasn't healthy for humans to do that. She supposed she'd let it slide for now, since they had little choice, but she'd have to put her foot down if he did it too much in the future. She pointed out where the symbols were coming from to Zack, and he went into the room alone. Da'are waited outside. She watched from behind the wall as the symbols behind them told her that Zack was getting closer. The shiiiiik of some sort of blade being drawn was all the clue she needed to know that he was in place... ...!? Mmphhmmwha? Da'are watched apprehensively as Zack's motions slowed, just enough. The boy had woken from the small sound, clearly a light sleeper, and must have woken to seeing a man he'd only just met in his room, with a single or both hands fisted above him, about to come down on his head... and they came down just slow enough because of that human reaction that the blow didn't hit properly. Da'are rushed in while simultaneously trying to make Joseph's body stay as silent as possible they weren't caught yet. Zack was watching in a trance as the boy clutched at his throat, blood bubbling up from it, trying to breath... he was going to die slowly, without being able to call out for help, and never know why. Da'are shook her head. At least the worst had been avoided, but Zack was freezing up, which wasn't good... or...wait... Da'are looked at Zack's face with more than a little surprise, and Joesph's nose and forehead wrinkled. She'd seen that look before. The one police so often mistook for shock. Only the gleam in the eye said differently, and it spoke volumes to Da'are. Joseph, look away. Stepping forward quickly, she grabbed Zack's arm and manoeuvred it fast as blinking to finish the job. Zack turned on her, and she looked him in the eye. Something she didn't like was looking back at her, but the change back was immediate. Zack was looking back at her now, curiously unaware, then looked back at the boy. Now it was Zack's turn to look disturbed. He shook his head as if shaking away demons completely unrelated to Da'are and her kind. Right, you're done here, Ekvail... Da'are sent to Ekvail, ...Ekvail? Wha..? Oh. Sorry. Okay, I'll get him movin'. Ekvail responded belatedly. Seconds later, Zack left the room. You'd better still be looking the other way, darlin'... She switched back to talking to Joseph, settling near the body. Joseph got out of the drivers seat and headed off saying one thing before he left Enjoy He was out he didnt do anything special just kinda waited for her to say that she was done, he hoped she wasn't a sloppy eater. She was still passed out, sound asleep like she had done countless times with her mom... she half expected her mother to come up behind her and mover her hair from her shoulder, but no, that wasn't to be anymore... she sighed, feeling rather then relaxed, very tense... Kodri, whats the news on the guys? she asked him, not liking his silence at this time.... she felt too alone now, and didn't like it to much Kodri did something very odd then. Up until now, every movement he had done could be comparable to a human motion, but now... his ears pricked up and swivelled, and his feathers ruffled, standing straight up. Feelings completely alien to the girl. That's- He only partially responded, pausing and waiting again before forcing his feathers down again. After an amount of time, Kodri started talking again. They're done... He answered reluctantly. Normally he could pull off something he didn't feel, but he didn't bother now, as he knew that the girl would question his first reaction regardless. Da'are is disposing of the body now. Back in the boy's house, Da'are was crunching through the bones of the last few fingers with her special teeth, thinking over what had just happened. Ekvail and Kodri were keeping quiet, which was good. More trouble was not what they needed right now, and there were just too many problems associated with dealing with this now. They would report nothing of the matter, there would probably not be any similar cases in the future, and Zack's next demon could go through the trouble. The only real problem would be keeping the three humans involved quiet about any strange behaviour they had experienced or seen in themselves or from their demons that night. Chewing and swallowing the last of it, Da'are licked Joseph's fingers clean of blood. She had been careful not to touch anything but the boy himself, which was gone now. Only a small bloodstain remained on the pillow. They could go. Da'are had not been able to thoroughly enjoy her meal, but she would take what she could get. Leaving the room, she found Zack. Joseph... it's over. You can take over again now. I need to rest. Joseph took back over and ran back to the room grabbing the pillow and took back off. Come on Zack lets get outta her before something unexpected happens Joseph whispered while tugging on Zack's arm as to hint him to the door. Wipe the handle down to get rid of fingerprints just cuz I said so he whispered while they were in front of the door. She gave a shudder What was that first feeling? what happened? i got that hes dead, and that the body's being cough disposed of the body, but that first bit... you seemed a bit more lively with that reaction.... she raised an eyebrow, resting her head back on her arms, closing her eyes... she'd still talk to Kodri, but she'd rest while she did it. Demon reflex. We can feel it when another demon makes a kill. Kodri lied fluently. It was a small enough change to the truth. Zack missed on the first swipe, but Da'are completed the kill. Zack was still feeling a little nervous about the kill himself, so as he reached for the door, he wiped away the prints, with his hand staying a few centimetres away from the handle at all times. He proceeded to make sure that they were clear to go before making his way back out to the street. She took it, but female gut instinct said he lies.... but she shrugged it off and dozed on the edge of the pool some more, the boys would be back shortly, and then thered be no sleep for her They made their way quickly back to the mansion As soon as we get back I'm burning this so you know, and what a funny site to see a half naked man running the streets with a bloody pillow, as for the kid I can tell your not quite sure of yourself right now with that look on your face, if you want we can talk when we get back. Da'are was not concerned by Joseph's statement. In fact, she was already deeply asleep. Ekvail had likewise all but asleep on his feet, but he remained awake in case his host needed to use his abilities for something else. One of their demons, at least, had to remain awake. Zack was indeed shaken by events. He gave a nod when Joseph spoke to him, but really he didn't want to talk about it. What had happened was probably a good thing. Maybe. He was pestering Ekvail with questions, but the demon was oddly quiet now. They had reached the mansion and Joseph kept on running all the way to the back where the fire pit area was and threw the pillow inside. He was out of breath but the fire had yet to bed started, he stood still for a moment before he dragged himself back inside for matches or something and came back out and grabbed wood for the fire that was neatly piled against the house and began to make the teepee of wood. God you know why didnt we just burn down the house? Joseph said to himself unsure of what was happening around him since he had gotten back to the mansion. He was going to protect his reputation so that his kids wouldn't ever hear through the news he could be suspected in a murder or something. Because you're dead, Joseph. Zack rolled his eyes. The man was getting paranoid. We're not like other people here anymore... we don't need to worry about it. Besides, since you are getting rid of the last of the evidence of murder, the first suspicion will be on kidnapping. There's no signs of forced entry, or a struggle, or anything. Joseph sighed I guess your right. Joseph flicked the lighter and stared at the little flame for a second before lighting the pillow on fire. He watched the fire for a minute Hey Zack come here for a minute. Zack was a little more hesitant this time. Last time Joseph had asked him to do this, Joseph had started punching things. Uhhh... are you sure this isn't something I can't do from here? He suggested half-heartedly. Joseph sighed Its fine I cant use my powers right now Da'are is asleep. Joseph waved his hand as a signal for Zack come and sit down. Not quite understanding how that changed the fact that Joseph might get mad again, but taking his word for it because he liked the man and felt he should trust his teammates, Zack came closer this time. He sat down by Joseph, keeping his eyes carefully trained on the man's hands just in case.
