Another demon wrapped her arms around Cienar's waist. "A prince? Well that makes him twice as sexy." Cienar shook. "Oh god." Meanwhile Arine was trying to get free from one that had held his arms behind his back. "Ikko! Use your lightning! Cienar needs our help!" Ikko was next to him on the ground struggling to get a demon foot off his chest. "I'm kinda busy at the moment!"
He then moved his hand quickly and a burst of lightning came out of his palm. But the demon caught the bolt and broke it. Ikko cringed as he lost his grip and was pushed farther into the ground. "Ah!" The demon laughed. "When was the last time you ate? You're magic is weaker than your grip!" He pushed down harder. "Ahh!" The demon holding Arine pulled him closer and rested an arm on his shoulder.
"Ugh, these two smell awful. Looks like they paid a visit to the swamp of swallow. They thought they could fool us. You think we should give them to Lothor?" Another that was restraining Cienar responded. "Sure, but give those two to him first. We're going to have some fun with this one for awhile." Cienar struggled more. "No you won't! Unhand me!"
They tightened their grip on him, and started to force him back when a commanding voice suddenly echoed through the streets of the black market. "Stop right there." Everyone froze and turned their heads to see that two demons were walking towards them down one of the paths. One that was walking ahead of the other had pitch black hair and bright orange eyes that froze the air around them in seconds.
He was wearing a black open leather trenchcoat, and all black clothes under with a silver belt, and a long black forked tail waving behind him. The other had blood red hair and knives everywhere, strapped along his limbs, over his gothic clothes. Both had different demon wings folded behind their back. The demons that held Arine, Cienar and Ikko started to show fear in their expressions. The demon stopped a few feet away from them, keeping his hands in his pockets.
"Well? What's going on here?" Another answered him quickly. "Lothor, what are you doing here? We were just taking care of these creatures that trespassed." Lothor moved his eyes toward the intruders with no expression then back to the demon that spoke. He then commanded in the demon language and turned his back to them, walking away.
"Oh, and don't ever 'have fun' with the prisoners won't you." Lothor continued to walk away and the demon with the red hair smirked at them then followed behind Lothor. Arine raised an eyebrow at the fact he had no idea what he just said but then his question was immediately answered. "Why does he want us to bring them back with him? What could he possibly want with a fallen angel, a fairy and a siren?"
Another moved so that he was the only one holding Cienar. "If you've learned anything, you would know never to question him." He then hit Cienar over the head, knocking him out, and the others did the same to Ikko and Arine. Darkness clouded over their vision and they fell unconscious.

The next morning had come and I had finally convinced Sythyon to take me to find my friends. He didn't have any intention of backing down at all at first. "I told you that I would never allow you to leave my castle again." He said. I exhaled exasperated and clasped my hands together. "Please please please please! Just this one time! I won't leave your side I promise!"
His glare continued to tense. "Do you realize what you're asking me to do? You want me to take you to my brother, who I haven't seen in hundreds of years because he made my life a living hell, which happened to be the same demon who you're friends so conveniently bumped into? The last time I saw him, he had a bloody horn in his hand, and your soul in his mouth." I shuddered at the thought and he continued.
"If you think I'm just going to let you cross within a hundred mile radius of him, you've got another thing coming." I sighed. 'What am I going to do? He's obviously not going to back down.' I thought for a moment, then took his hand, giving my cutest look. "Please. You're stronger than Lothor now. I'll be safe with you. I can't allow what happened to me happen to my friends. I'll do anything... I'll give you all the chocolate you want."
He scoffed rolling his eyes. "I'm the richest man in the world. I can get chocolate whenever I please." I smiled and let go of his hand to point at my neck. "Sure, but can you get it here?" His expression changed quickly into surprise and I moved my hand to point down my breasts. "Or here? Or here?"
My hand kept moving down until he stopped it grabbing my hand with his own. "What are you doing?" I smirked. "Being sexy. What does it look like I'm doing? You can have me, and lick whatever you want off me all you want if you do this for me. Where's that demon that wants me so bad? I want to speak with him please."
He looked at me in shock then dropped his head down to shake it side to side. He hesitated losing the battle with his lust. "God damn it woman! If he so much as looks at you, I will kill him where he stands!" I smiled in excitement and hugged him tightly. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"
Sythyon then carried me out of his castle and back to my world. I was still getting used to flying, but he held me tighter than he ever had. I could tell that he was starting to become more irritated the closer we came to seeing his brother. I wrapped my arms around his neck as we flew above the landscape and he looked at me silently. I pulled closer to him. "We might not need to see him. My guardian said they were just going to a black market, so we could make it in time before Lothor finds them."
He sighed. "If only luck worked like that." There was a minute of silence before Sythyon suddenly looked up. "I smell something." He moved to see below us and I followed. "What is it?" He didn't answer right away and started to fly down. There was a market ahead. "There are two leftover scents down there that are hard to make out, but there's one left by a siren."
My hopes went up hearing that. "That must be them! We need to go quickly!" We sped up then landed in the middle of one of the paths. Sythyon didn't let me go and I knew why. We were already attracting looks from almost every demon in the black market. 'This is Lothor's territory. So the demons here are most likely not going to be mild, even for their king. And not to mention, they can see my soul, so who knows what they'll do to me if he puts me down.'
