[IC] Lords of the Underworld

[manapool1]

Finally managing to unhinge the tazer from himself poxy and sven were amazed by the fact they had survived. "perhaps they're better than I thought, but you, you need to work of using me" the demon tease as they walked with the others. with a new cut in his sleeve and a sense of pain flowing through him he felt exhausted. "you alright katherin" the boy said in a empathetic and submissive way he often did. Hoping she would quit speaking secrets before she gave his away. Little did he realize the demon was slowly taking control, until it had almost engulfed his stability. Now walking with a strange look in his eyes Sven attempted to take control back. "sorry but it's easier to talk to you in the mind this way. I'm glad we got away from hope, he isn't exactly one to tamper with but it looks like he got himself a one of the easyer to preach to, me and him have some bad experiences if hope didn't exist my life would be so much easier"

Delilah accepted the hug, but didn't hug him back. That was a little too close for her, too emotional. On the ride back home she observed Katherin thoughtfully, smiling as She thought of their futures. "Dante, I think you made the right choice." She whispered, not elaborating any further. She looked out the window and waited silently as they rode back to the castle.

[SniperWolfv]

"Made the right choice?" Dante thought. He didn't realize he was choosing anyone over anyone. He could hear Pain telling Promiscuity that Dante would pay for not choosing her, but Dante knew Pain couldnt and wouldn't do anything. As they pulled up to the castle Dante couldn't help but feel relieved that they were home. He parked and then let Delilah out and carried Katherin to her room. He let her down outside her door. "I would put you in bed but I didnt want to intrude." He smiled at her and opened her door for her. "I will see you when you wake up." He said looking into her eyes.

[KatherinWinter]

Katherin nodded. She kind of wished he had carried her inside. But right now all she wanted as to sleep. She gentle caressed hus cheek before going into her room. She crawled into bed and fell asleep.

[CallaLily180]

Delilah didn't want to hide inside of her room anymore, so she decided to walk around in the castle, before she knew it she found herself leaning on the wall watching the silent exchange between Katherin and Dante. It took her a moment to clear her throat and turn away, blushing, and by then Katherin was already inside of her room. "Hi, Dante. I was just heading to my room...sorry." She lied, striding forwards, pretending to head to her room.

[SniperWolfv]

Dante smiled and went to his room. "You alright?" He asked Delilah. He had noticed she had been acting strange since they returned. "You did good today. It was very brave of you to step up and come help." He said smiling.

[CallaLily180]

Delilah stood at her door, about to open it. She wasn't interested in sleep, but she knew if she lied again about being tired she could avoid a conversation. "Hmm? Yeah, I'm fine Dante. Don't worry, you should get some sleep. We still have to set up the cameras and stuff...in the morning..." Delilah trailed off, resting her hand on the doorknob. "Do I sound funny? I probably sound funny...don't I? I'm just a little restless tonight, ya know? I wish I had a teddy bear or something, so I could sleep with it. Not in that way, I mean- I'm not that desperate. I guess I kind of am though, and you don't have to,compliment me...I didn't do a single thing I was just there. I'm really lazy and I would be a bad role model for young kids, I guess that's why I don't want to work with kids, or have them. Because I'm so strange and bad at being compassionate and...stuff." At that moment, Delilah caught herself, frowning and finishing with another awkward addition. "I...er...sorry. I don't know where I was going." Delilah felt flustered, her face was hot, and most likely red. She leaned sideways on the door and sighed. "Did you check on Katherin? I wonder if aspirin would help."

[SniperWolfv]

"She went right to sleep" He said smiling. He softly touched her face "Get some rest and yes you were a big help. You give me strength when you are near." Dante felt Pain pulling him to her. "Listen all of this is new to everyone. Most people wouldn't have even came, so don't beat yourself up." He gave her a hug and as he embraced her he could feel his heart racing. Do you feel that Dante? That electricity? That is how things should be. Pain taunted. He let her go and turned away. "You know if you need company we are always here for you." Dante said walking toward his room.

[CallaLily180]

Delilah rushed up behind him and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, she wanted it to look like a friendly gesture, but it meant more to her than that. When he hugged her, she truly felt their bond, and for once closeness felt nice to her. She bit her bottom lip and chewed on it as she made her way to her room and collapsed on her bed, excited for the new day.

[SniperWolfv]

Dante smiled as he watched her go back to her room happy. He returned to his room and laid in bed. He could feel Pain wanting to be with her but the stress on his body from their encounter with hope hit him hard an d he couldn't help but pass out.

[KatherinWinter]

Katherin wake early. Despite her exhaustion she hadn't slept well. Secrets insisted on telling her all the secrets the hadn't revealed. She winced as she pulled herself out of bed. She dressed and silently made her way to through the halls.

[manapool1]

sven couldn't help but laugh at dante and daliah, they were more like school kids than him. Though tired and sore the boy still felt axious and a bit nervous after words. He couldn't help but feel like someone would go after them again. Going to his room the boy grabbed a of sleeping pills he was prescribed by a doctor when he started hearing poxy in his head. Just before he placed them in his mouth the boy sighed and threw them at the wall. After picking them up feeling like a dumbass sven decided to go for a stroll before he met at katherin's door and clenched his fist. He didn't want her kidnapped again, he didn't want that to happen to any of the others. Sven set himself down in the hallway, knowing they could possibly get in through the inside but he wasn't illing to peer inside. Soon after the boy fell asleep

[SniperWolfv]

When Dante woke up he found himself thinking about his kiss with Katherin. He couldn't wait to see her. While Dante thought of Katherin he could feel Pain pulling him to go check on Delilah. Dante got out of bed and grabbed clothes and a towel. He went to the bathroom and showered. It felt good after having such a stressful day.

[KatherinWinter]

Katherin made her way to the kitchen. She helped herself to some fruit for breakfast. She wondered where the others were. High on her list of things to do was get phones fir everyone. Or atleast those who didn't already have one. They needed a way to communicate over large distances.

[sheeplon]

Luther woke up after about an hour of restless sleep, being rudely woken up by nightmares. He took a shower before going to the kitchen and making coffee. Seeing Katherin, he gave s nod and a vague sound that could be a greeting; it was pretty obvious he wasn't a morning person.

[SniperWolfv]

Dante got out the shower and did his morning rituals, in which consisted of him singing to himself in the mirror while he shaved, brushed his teeth, and combed his hair. He then proceeded down to the kitchen to eat still singing. He was surprised to find Luther and Katherin there. "Oh... good morning everyone." He said embarrassed.

[manapool1]

Sven mumbled as he got off the floor and walked towards the others in the kitchen. He felt weak, something about his last night kept him jittery. But he was also overcome with hunger and thirst so the boy went to the kitchen an took an apple, sitting in a corner to converes with his demon. Usually he'd hate to but with hope suddenly appearing the demon was to busy contemplating to be a pest.

"so mind telling me why you hate hope so much" the boy asked as he chomped on his meal.
"because he actually helps people, hope can be good and bad, but he's a demon that's not what we do" the demon grummbled
"if you think hard enough don't you all kind of help people?"

[CallaLily180]

Delilah woke up after all the others, and decided to change into a loose, flowing dress that would be comfortable for the day. She headed out to the kitchen, ready for breakfast, and saw that everyone was there already. She sighed and walked over to the fridge, pulling out the egg carton and frowning when she found it almost empty. "Dante, did you use all of the food yesterday? I think I need to go to the store today, does anyone else want to come?"

[sheeplon]

Luther watched Dante and Sven enter, and to be honest he was a little concerned about the latter. After all, the kid did run straight into a taser, and while he appeared to be better from that he still seemed off. He seemed to be a bit preoccupied with whatever he was doing, though, so he let him alone. "Gdfmirng..." Luther replied, slowly walking up more. With his insomnia and Nightmares combined, he never got a decent sleep, and ran mostly on caffeine.

[manapool1]

"I'll tag along, eh if that's ok" johnny muttered as he tried not to look at her dress. It wasn't something he saw on a daily basis so he couldn't help but look it over but he felt wrong doing so. Still to get out of the castle was in his best interest for him, and he didn't want the others captured like earlier.. "I wont make a big fuss about it"
