Angels vs. Demons Ch. 1

[dementedmongoose]

OOC: Well, since there was an imbalance, I'm going to go with this plan. You're fighting each other for the right to get Kresh back to Hell, or dead. He's figured out how to get himself onto the material plane.

Kresh stood at attention as the leader of his little cadre of demons swore and gnashed his teeth at Kresh. Unable to bear the tirade any longer, Kresh bit the demon's throat out and spit it back at his dissolving form. Less than a second later a flaming sword ripped through Kresh's neck, sending him back to the pit as well.

Back in the pit, Kresh's eyes snapped open to see his latest kill glaring down at him, the many horned head seeming to quiver with rage. "WHAT THE-" was all the demon got out before Kresh slammed a plate sized hoof into the demon's chest, doubling him over. Kresh stood and rammed an elbow into the small of the demon leader's back and distended his already massive jaws to accomodate the leader's head. Biting down, Kresh began to absorb the demon itself, causing it to dissolve like it were back on the material, but instead the demon was actually transported to a hell within Kresh, where he would be used to fuel and empower Kresh for however long it took for someone to kill Kresh. Feeling his power, Kresh ripped a hole in the planar walls, throwing his actual form onto the material plane.
******
ANGELS
******
Michael himself stands before you, briefing you on the demon who forced himself onto the material plane. You've been ordered to actually kill him and send any demons who stand in your way back to hell. It's obviously some plot of Lucifer, and we must step up the war before Lucifer breaks loose of his chains and escapes hell. Destroy this demon at any cost. This is the order of the Lord Our God.
******
DEMONS
******
Lucifer stands before you, his chained form more beautiful and more terrifying to behold than when you arrived in Hell. "This demon, Kresh, he's escaped the pit. This would be a good thing, but he's getting in our way. You must bring him back to me that I might escape these chains and march with you to conquer heaven. May GOD BOW BEFORE US!"

[Roy_D_Mylote]

Arimael raised his hand, and his sword appeared in a flash of light. He buckled it to his belt, made sure his crossbow was prepared and he had sufficient bolts, and teleported across the planes to Earth.

He reassambled, hovering above the city streets. Looking for an isolated place to change, he flew down and shifted into his human form. His sword and crossbow faded away as he metamorphed. Arimael emerged from the alley, scanned to his left and right to be sure no-one had seen the flash that accompanied transformation. He focused his will on locating the demon and set out into the city.

[Tarrin]

The alley was on of a thousand in the city, There was nothing special about it, It was dark dank and smelled of deat decay and week old urine.
Out of one of the shadows a figure formed, Darkness seamed to swath the area as it formed, After a while the shadows retreated and in their place stood Khoros in his human guise.

The morning star had sent his very best hunters this day unto the mortal plane as Kresh had escaped his confines, Not a bad thing really bud not what was needed at this point in time.
Looking around the dank alley Khoros notice the old bum his eyes opend wider than thought possible, Smiling Khoros extended a hand to the old man.

The Old hobo grabed the hand thinking he was safe, Moments later a terrifying scream erupted from the darkness and another soul was sent to hell.

Stepping onto the street Khoros put on his sunglasses and planed his path thru the city looking for his prey, Or anyone that got in his way....How he preyed for someone to get in his way.

[Roy_D_Mylote]

Arimael heard the scream. He spun on his heel, charging towards the source. He rounded the corner in time to see an old man disappear in a void of darkness. Ari pressed himself against a wall as a sunglasses wearing man strode off. No human would notice, but to the angel it was perfectly clear: the being radiated darkness.

"Hellspawn."

[Mr.G.Williams]

Footsteps slowly encroach on the angel standing over the hobo. When they stop, a single, opalescent pearl of water falls, and rolls down the form of the crumpled man. Ridwan runs a hand through the fallen figure's hair, reciting the salat al-mayyit.
"I will find you in the Kingdom", he says, and stands.

[Tarrin]

Hearing the salat al-mayyit Khoros laughed, Don't bother brother those were the flames of hell, His soul is now forfeit not even that antiquated drivel will save him.

"Hellspawn."

The call came from off to the side of Khoros, Turning he saw another angel, "Looks like your here for a party" Smiling he looked at the two angels, "However i have more important things to do at the moment" With that he took off casting a flame at the alley entrance to halt his company.

If That hell drivin bull hadn't been missing he would have enjoyed the battle but he refused to stop to play at this time, if the two lighters crossed his path again it might go different tho.

[Roy_D_Mylote]

Arimael threw himself to the ground in an effort to dodge the flames. When he righted himself, the demon had disappeared. He shrugged, dusted himself off, and set out to find the other.

[dementedmongoose]

OOC: Let me remind you again people, humans see your human form if you have one, ethereals see the ethereal. There's no need to transform. Also, love the way you've built a setting without any direction from me. Oh, and by the way, Kresh was never a real leader in Hell, but nobody in the First Choir ever really sought out leadership or power, they simply wanted to get back into Heaven, and prove to God that they were truly repentant. Except Kresh, he wants God dead.

IC: Kresh watched from the rooftops as a demon hole opened between two buildings and several demons emerged and began to scour the area. Dropping from the roof, Kresh slammed his full weight down on one hoof, turning the asphalt directly beneath him into much smaller particles of jagged, sharp rock, and sending cracks shooting out for several feet. Stepping back, Kresh ripped a particularly sharp piece of rock out of the ground and flung it at the ugliest of them. Swearing as the demon jumped free, Kresh reached deep into himself and let out a massive roar. "Stay in Hell, pawns of the Usurper!" Kresh roared as he let fly another rock, this one hitting home between the demon's half melted eyes and dissolving along with his body. "I ruled the pit! I was Satan!" he roared as he launched his whole body at the shocked demons.

Summoning his flame staff, he began swinging like a club at them. Bored with that method, Kresh released the staff back into himself. Returning to his former method of distending his jaws to bite off body parts, headbutting, and beatings, Kresh sent all but one back to Hell, sustaining only one injury of real significance when one sliced with a flaming sword at his head and Kresh ducked, and one of his horns, along with a sizeable chunk of flesh were both sliced clean off. When it was down to him and this last one, a wizened old demon who'd Kresh watched from Hell square off with Gabriel before Lucifer had been pushed into Hell. "Grelg?" Kresh asked, mildly surprised.

"Damn right, traitor." the scarred demon sneered back. Enraged to be called a traitor by this weakling, Kresh decided to send a message to everyone who wanted him in chains. Looking at his horn, lying uselessly on the ground, Kresh lunged at Grelg and punched his broken horn into Grelg's midriff. Reaching down, Kresh grabbed his horn and rammed it into Grelg's arm. "You genderless little do. You'll survive on this plane, but you're sending a message to the other demons. Tell them that the true Satan will reenter heaven, and Lucifer will be forced into servitude. Tell the angels as well. Then you can return to Hell, but not before. I invoke your true name Elhorn the Hateful." Hearing a human shriek, Kresh guessed a demon to be the cause, and hurled Grelg in the direction of the death. He hit the mark within a yard.

[Tarrin]

Having left the angels to their devices and seeing that they haden't followed him, Khoros slowed to a walk scanning the area with a keen eye.

As a form fell to the ground infront of him, Khoros pulled free his blades his tatoos flaring into full life twisting over his body spured on by his surprise.
Looking at his feet he could make out the form of one of his breathren, Rolling the limp form over he let out an evil chuckle.
"Well Grelg looks like you ran into our friend" he let the last word roll off his toung with a drop of venom.

"Y..yes it was Kresh, He...He's gone mad, he wants to take over heaven and hell, He's insane" the spluttering words were punctuated by a black blood.
Laughter rang out of Khoros "Insane he's always been insane you old coote"
Khoros dropped the demons head stood and stomped down as hard as he could on his neck "Go tell lucifer the bad news, Ill see what i can do here" and with that he took flight, Kresh couldn't be far and he was going to see what the bull was made of, Piece by piece

[Mr.G.Williams]

Ridwan was the last to arrive at the scene. Having arived so late, the shattered pavement was devoid of demon prescence. The only trace remaining was a long, black horn sitting in a pool of vile blood. When he reached for it, the liquid burned his hand.
With the faintest of motions, the blood was transmogrified. Ridwan lifted the horn from a pool of shimmering water. As he walked away, the puddle began to seep out and spread. Shoots grew from it, imbued with the divine glory of God, creating a small sanctuary between the two buildings, and preventing a further incursion of the forces of Hell.

[Roy_D_Mylote]

Arimael noticed the shapeless form of Ridwan and sidled up to him. "Where'd they go?" he asked his fellow angel.

[dementedmongoose]

Kresh sidled up beside Arimael and Ridwan, unnoticed, acting as though there were nothing out of the ordinary. Pointing to the east, Kresh chuckled as he made himself completely noticed. "I'd say that crazy bastard ran thataway." he said as he grabbed his horn back. Laughing, he swung the horn through the shapeless form of Ridwan. "That's the problem with you gardeners. Even in Heaven, you don't die!" Letting loose his powerful roar, Kresh kicked through Ridwan and into Arimael's stomache.

[Armored Bishoujo]

Kholette peered at Kresh from the top of a building. Looking down, she found an external stairwell and began to descend, stopping several floors from the ground to get a better view.
"Well, there he is. Do you think I can just ask him nicely to return to hell?"
"That's probably not possible, even with your charms."
The voice is Leticia. The two sisters were always close, but Kholette was amazed at how powerful their link was. Even when Leticia was still in hell, their telepathic link couldn't be severed.
"Damn it. I wish I knew what he wanted."
"Maybe he was tired of waiting for Armageddon to occur."
"That's not his job."
"Well, I suppose you can go over there and try telling him that."
"...Any plan is better than nothing."
Kholette leapt down the rest of the way to the ground, trying to appear sincere. She couldn't see any other demons and by herself, subduing Kresh would be a feat beyond her skills. She'd wait until he was done with his current business before talking to him.

[dementedmongoose]

Sensing Kholette's presence behind him, Kresh decided to end his divine opponents' time on this plane. Bracing himself for another kick, Kresh feinted to the left and drove his horn hard through Ridwan and deep into Arimael's throat, sending them both back to Heaven. (OOC: don't worry, you're not dead permanently, just until you post again.)

With that accomplished, Kresh turned to look at Kholette and merely stood there, waiting for her to make the first move. Finally, he spoke. "Well, the Morning Sun sends an oversexed bitch to bring me back. You've really not thought this through, have you? I'm a First Choir. I was closer to God than even Michael. I literally stood at God's side before there even was existence. What are you gonna do? Huh? Try to seduce me back to Hell? Let's think about this one for just a second. You're basically a slave to Lucifer, and you can only use the power he allows you to use, and I'm reaching the power of God himself. Oh-ho, for your foolishness, when I conquer Heaven, I'm going to make you watch your precious sister die over and over again."

[Roy_D_Mylote]

Arimael felt the horn ram through him, gave a cry, and disappeared. He felt his very essence reassmbling in the Heavens and groaned, as he was sure to receive a lecture from his higher-ups.

[Tarrin]

"He was closer than i thought" Khoros spoke to himself, He had seen the demon dispatch the two lighters, He now stood taunting a demon Kholette if he remembered it right.

The seductress was a good fighter but Kresh on the other hand was a powerhouse and a insane one at that, A smile crossed Khoros's lips and he decended to the roof.

"Well well well what do we have here" Looking at both demons he laughed,
"Dont tell me you excaped hell just so you could get a booty call...Kresh i thought so much more of you" He had placed himself out of the great beasts strike range and away from Kholette.

"Well get on with it and then we all will go for a little trip" His hand stayed out of sight holding the hilt of his blades just incase of an attack.

[Armored Bishoujo]

Kholette listened to what Kresh had to say, from his motive to his threat. "Well, I tried. I guess even sexual favors won't make you come back for a peaceful one-on-one with Lucifer."
The succubus turned away and looked out towards the street. "Bit of advice, though. Seems like heaven also has had their eyes on you since your first step into the material plane. Who knows? Heaven and hell might conspire to put you down if you turn out to be pretty successful with this 'conquer heaven' plan you have, and they have their grip on humanity. Even for a supremely talented demon such as yourself, I think you really should've thought this through before acting on it. Now, if you'll excuse me, I hunger."
With that, Kholette left the alley and turned around the corner.
"You're not going to fight him?"
"He'd have me face down in the pavement, spinal column shattered before I could even draw my sword. I may be oversexed as he claims, but I'm not stupid. Kresh can't be killed in a duel. It'll take some serious planning, cunning and numbers if he's to be sent back to Lucifer and right now, I just don't have the mindset to work on a strategy."
"I could try and think of something."
"Please do so. I'll talk to you again after I'm scrounged up a meal from someone in this neighborhood. Shouldn't be hard."
Kholette began her search for a host to drain.

[dementedmongoose]

Kresh refused to let her walk away. Nobody walked away from Kresh and survived. Following her, he heard a sound he'd not heard in a great while, but recognized nonetheless. Perversion. The very thing that sent him to Hell. Kholette was guilty of far worse, but she had no choice. She was a pawn. These humans had free will. Focusing on the sound, Kresh tilted his head up, smelling closely for the perverted. Locating them, Kresh crashed through their window, thinking he'd simply flow through, but instead he crashed through, disturbing the sodomizers he found. Ripping their heads off, he sucked their souls out and straight into the Hell he'd fashioned inside himself. Reaching his hand up into the space where his horn was and felt it reform.

[Inbred Chocobo]

A shot rung out in this particular alleyway. But it was not from some lowlife mugger or street punk. This shot rang from a holy gun, striking down the demon that came out.

"What the hell is going on." The man in shades said to no one. This night had called what seemed like hundreds of demons, making his day that much harder. He didn't even holster his gun as he walked out from the alleyway's protection. There was just too much supernatural shit going on to take risks.

He looked forward, and saw another demon. This one however was hunting, crashing through a wall into a building. But that is what was surprising, crashing through a freaking wall. "Bloody Hell." He muttered.

He aimed at the wall in which the demon crashed through. No sense in reveiling myself. He thought as he fired three holy shots into the building, hoping to kill its new unholy resident.

[Tarrin]

Khoros stood there just watching the scene unravaling before him, Neither of the other two demons payed him any attention at all, Both had walked away from him as if he haden't been there, Well technically Kresh had lumbered head long into a building but still the end was the same.

"Hmmm i'd have thought myself atleast a bit of a pain in Kres's ass, Enough of one that he'd atleast say boo" Khoros was in total shock, Then the gun rang out, But this was no ordanary bullet that flew towards Kersh the holy aura that engulfed it stung even to look at it, "So a Hunter emters the frey then" Khoros would love to let the three battle it out but if the Morining Sun found out he did nothing his soul, As black as it was, Would be forfit and he coulden't have that.

[Armored Bishoujo]

"Kholette? Kholette!"
A warm hand fell upon Leticia's right shoulder. Leticia whirled around to see her sister standing right behind her.
"...What happened?"
"Kresh really needs to sort out his personal issues. I didn't even get to climax." Kholette sighed, stretched, and swept her fingers through her shiny crimson hair. "Anyways, did you figure anything out for bringing Kresh here with us?"
"Well, for lack of better options, yes. Remember when you told Kresh that if he kept on, heaven and hell might conspire to put him down?"
Kholette forgot how to blink. "Ummm...no?"
Leticia smirked. "If you think about it, it's not such a foolish idea, sister. I mean, think about it; Kresh wants God's throne. So God has to organize his angels to prevent that, and Lucifer doesn't want Kresh to have God's throne because then Kresh will obviously invade hell and take Lucifer's throne."
Kholette turned her back to Leticia and walked over to a mirror, her wounds already healed. "What would one demon do with two thrones?"
Leticia shrugged lightly. "Whatever the fuck he wants to do, whenever he wants to do it. with nothing or nobody to prevent him from doing it. And heaven, hell, and earth will come under his complete and indominable influence. Risky? Extremely. But it has its obvious rewards."
Kholette frowned. "I wouldn't do something so absurd."
"Of course you wouldn't. You're not Kresh. He has the means and the motive to try something like this, you know. He's determined, he's got the potential, and gosh darn it, maybe people will learn to like him once he rules over all."
"Sister."
Leticia chuckled. "Sorry. But it's clear. To stop Kresh from doing the impossible and winning absolutely everything, heaven and hell should unite in this if only temporarily. There's no reason they shouldn't. God doesn't want Kresh on his throne. And I told you why Lucifer doesn't want Kresh on God's throne. In this, the angels and demons should make natural allies."
"So now I'm the mediator between two forces who have been warring since all too long before I came into existence. Joy."
"If you don't like the idea, you can try actually drawing your sword against Kresh."
Kholette paused for a while, then sighed. "I'm going back to earth."
Leticia nodded. "Speaking of earth, keep your eyes open for any humans you can use to help you deal with Kresh."
"What's the point? The humans will be ripped apart by the hundreds if I send them against Kresh."
"Yeah, but they've proven effective against some types of demons. Maybe they'll have an answer this one, too?"

Kholette stepped back into the material plane, standing atop the same building in which she entered earth the first time. From there, she could see the building that she, and then Kresh entered. The gaping hole was visible and...
"Is that human really doing what I think he's doing? Hmph. Maybe there's a chance that I can find capable allies even amongst the humans after all."
Kholette unsheathed her snake sword, volts of black lightning jumping along the length of the blade. "You've been a really naughty boy, Kresh. Time for a spanking you won't soon forget."

[dementedmongoose]

Kresh was more than startled when the bullets slammed into his elbows and one into his knee, dissolving everything from there down. Fortunately for Kresh, the bullets went clean through and the regenerations hadn't yet stopped. Unfortunately, the meat and skin didn't completely reform, but he could still use his arms and leg. Roaring his battle cry, Kresh pounded out of the room, grabbing one of the bodies and throwing it into the human warrior, sending him flying backwards. Casting the fireball into the air, Kresh illuminated the entire area, saw Kholette frozen in her tracks and Khoros standing there. "I'LL NEVER GO BACK TO HELL!" Kresh yelled as lunged at Khoros' recovering figure. Moments before Kresh impacted, Khoros ducked, taking a glancing blow from Kresh's elbow. Regaining his feet, Kresh stood and looked at the three.

[Tarrin]

"Now you notice me, After i've used up all my one liners too" Khoros said standing up from the blow Kresh had given him.
Taking a couple of steps back He could see the look in Kresh's eye, A look of an utter zelot, Noone could talk to a zelot noone, So tring to convice the demon of anything was a waist of time.

"Kresh, You know me and what i do, Is hell so bad" Khoros repositioed himself reading for the inevitable, "After all you get all those lovely souls, I mean ltes face it do you really want heaven with all the light and choirs, Not to mention the goody goody lighters". Watching Kresh's every move Khoros continued his steady movements.

Throwing up a hand Khoros willed the flames forward, A wall of dark flames placed itself between Kresh and Khoros, "Even you can be hurt by those flames Kresh, They are flames we all have felt at one stage." Khoros still stayed back he knew Kresh's will was strong and that the flames would only slow him.

[Armored Bishoujo]

Kholette landed safely on the ground using her wings to slow her descent. "You know, I used to sympathize with you." Kholette said, lashing out with her snake sword and removing the body that was thrown at the human, flinging the corpse unceremoniously against a nearby wall. "Now I'm starting to believe Lucifer did the right thing. Is your lust for absolute domination over the people you hate so all-consuming that you'd come here of all places, all by yourself with no overall strategy nor anyone who would ally with you? Is that where your confidence comes from? From knowing that you have no other choice than to follow through? After all, you've made the plunge, Kresh, and should you fall there will be no one to pick you up, much less give you a chance to try again."
Kholette cracked the snake sword like a whip, black lightning noisily crashing from segment to segment of the blade. "It's only going to get harder from here on out. If you come back now, Lucifer might see fit to pardon you with only a small punishment. Keep this up though, and he'll have you reduced to a status lesser than mine own."

[Inbred Chocobo]

He stood up, and gracefully put on his glasses as he stood. He now watched the ongoing conflict, trying to figure out why the hell these demons were on his plane. He listened to the succubus rant on towards the minotaur.

Then he decided what to do. He would sit back, and allow these demons to kill each other. Then whoever survived, he would finished off. An easy plan, but they both knew he was here, so they could easily come towards him. But for now, he simply watched from his position.

Though he did admit he wanted to see if the succubus realized he could see her true form.

[dementedmongoose]

"You're trying to talk me back to Hell? That's the most hilarious thing I've ever heard." To further his point, Kresh threw back his head in a roaring laugh that woke the people who'd managed to sleep through the gunshots and the wall crashing in. Lights flicked on in several nearby buildings. One particularly rude woman stuck her head out the window to yell at Kresh, thinking he was just a human, and saw his true form, still laughing. Screaming, the woman slammed the window shut, hoping to hide from the demon she'd just seen.

Realizing he was fully visible to humans, Kresh stopped laughing immediately, stomped one massive hoof on the concrete, compacting the ground directly under him, and sending cracks rippling out. Grabbing a particularly hard and sharp piece, he slung it at Kholette. Snapping her sword again, Kholette ruined the chunk.

Seeing this, Kresh was almost discouraged momentarily, but he did realize that it'd be so much more fun if he let them kill one another for awhile. Roaring, Kresh jumped as high into the air as he could, disappearing from their sight in the mass of buildings.
OOC:

[Armored Bishoujo]

"Fuck!"
Kholette looked at the people around her. "A moment."
She spread her demonic bat wings, which weren't all that capable of flight, and leapt at a nearby external stairwell, ascending it hand over hand to the top of the roof, where she disappeared over the edge. Standing on the roof, she scanned the skies for Kresh. "Why wasn't I told he could do that?"
"What happened?" came Leticia's voice.
"Kresh went airborne. Really fast."
"You didn't know?"
Kholette frowned. "Nobody bothered to tell me."
"Of course they didn't. When a demon like Kresh goes fucking apeshit, we don't have time to educate anyone we send to earth to go fetch him before they depart. The way it was figured, you should believe that Kresh can anything because...well, he's Kresh, not trained lesser demons like you or me."
Kholette searched the sky more thoroughly. "I wish there was a way to track him."
"First, go and talk to the human you said was good, as well as anyone else who could help you. Kresh is not something you can take down alone, so you need to forge some alliances up there, early and often."
Kholette considered her options. Kresh would either leave, or drop down right on top of her. It probably was a good idea to stay out of his way for the time being until she had some people to count on. She went back to the edge of the building and dropped down safely by kicking off of the buildings to lessen the impact.
A demon just like her and a human. Kholette had never bothered with diplomacy and she didn't think they wanted to listen to her. Still, she needed their help. She put away the snake sword and approached Khoros, the closest one she could fine. "Demon. Can we talk without resorting to weapons?"

[Tarrin]

Khoros watched Kresh dissapear into the sky, "Well that was unexpected" he thought.
However another problem had presented itself, Apparently the humans in this area had seen them and that was not a good thing, Unfurling his wings Khoros sailed into the air, Once he had reached the rooftop he willied flames into existance one lot on the ground floor another lot on the roof itself, this would ensure anyone who escaped wouldn't be believed about what they saw.

[Armored Bishoujo]

Kholette sighed and wondered if the other demons would really be useful overall. After ignoring her, the demon Khoros was doing...something. Kholette didn't particularly care and now wasn't the time for it.
"Leticia, what the hell is this moron doing?"
"No clue. I can't see through your eyes. Can you explain it to me?"
Kholette relayed an accurate description to her sister.
"...What?"
"You got me. Is it something I should be worried about?"
"Probably not. Can you tell him to stop and listen to what you have to say?"
"I'll try. It's not like I have anything better to do. Might as well wait until he finishes...whatever the hell it is that he's doing."
Kholette waited impatiently for Khoros to finish his task with folded arms and a tapping hoof.

[Tarrin]

OOC: AB i happen to be a demon not an angel, For the record

IC: Khoros looked down at the impatent seductress, "I wouldn't just hang around, After all this place will be crawling with people in about two minutes" He started to leave "As far as being an angel trust me little sister i'm more demon than you are. If you wanna talk then come along and be quick" Talking wasn't the way to take Kresh, That animal was going to try and take them all down and Khoros was enjoying himself.

[Armored Bishoujo]

"Well, in that case, I'll stick close."
Kholette hesitated to look at the human with the guns, then joined up with Khoros. She thought that Kresh had probably already handled every demon, and chances are that he did. To find that there were other demons willing to come back after taking that kind of humiliation was heartening.
"Nevermind. Mistaken identity, I guess. You're obviously here to bring Kresh back to hell so I'm under your command."

[Tarrin]

Khoros smiled at that, He was as much a pawn as she in this endevour, Only difference was that he knew it.
"Ok the first thing is that Kresh is out of it" Khoros didn't look at his new backup but kept his eye's peeled for his prey "The second is one on one, Hell two on one we ain't gonna take kresh down in a fair fight" It was an obvious statement but he said it just in case, "And third we have lighters and hunters stalking Kresh as well," That last point would complicate things to no end but what are you gonna do?

"Our objective is to find that meglominiacle dipshit and keep an eye on him till we can get an advantage" Khoros hoped hell was sending up a few big guns because this was going to be fun.

[Inbred Chocobo]

The guns "The Saint" had he holstered up. In truth, he knew there were demons, yet what had him interested was that they were hunting other demons, particularly the one that he shot earlier. With that big ol' minotuar gone, he started to walk towards the Succubus, or at least whatever building she occupied.

He wanted anwsers as to what the hell was going on. He was getting sick of everything coming onto his plane.

[Armored Bishoujo]

Kholette saw the human coming towards her, and while her mind drifted towards the thought of draining him, she needed him for his skills.
"Hey, impressive piece of action you showed there. A human that could put the sting to Kresh...well, I didn't think it'd be possible. I'm lucky I found you."
Kholette assumed the first human guise she had since she was forced to depart the material plane by Kresh, a young and superbly attractive blonde woman with her hair styled in a bun that ended in long braids. A small sword shaped pendant, a cranberry red blazer and matching knee length skirt, black stockings, and red pumps that matched the blazer and skirt. She looked like a professional businesswoman and thought that this disguise wouldn't attract too much attention. "My name is Kholette, a succubus in the service of Lilith. We're trying to catch that demon that you hurt."
Kholette tried to seem sincere. Khoros was right. They were going to need more than just to the two of them to bring down Kresh, and as Leticia advised, she shouldn't be picky about just who she gets help from. Demons. Angels. Humans. If they could somehow band together, Kholette would accept it by all means.

[Inbred Chocobo]

He looked at Kholette through the glasses. He then took a hand, and lifted the glasses off of his face to reveal the female form. "Seems strange for a succubus to want to hunt another demon." He said with a smile, then put the glasses back down over his eyes.

"This guy is attracting more attention than I like. Tell me what it is with him that has everyone in a russ." He said a little bit harsher now, waiting for an anwser.

[Armored Bishoujo]

"I'm not quite sure why, myself." Kholette said, looking at Khoros. "I wasn't told anything but just to bring Kresh back at all costs. How about you?"
Then again, there was probably the obvious reason. "Oh, right. Kresh is going after The Almighty's throne and Lucifer doesn't want that. I just wish we knew what he needed to do to actually do that so we can cut him off."

Khoros watched the hunter and the Suc talk, Resorting to using the Monkey's of this plane was a painful thing but it was nesicary at this time.

"He'd be searching for a soul, A special soul would be my thought" Khoros looked thoughtful for the moment "One bound for heaven from birth, One he could latch onto for a free pass" It was always rumored that it was possible but none had dared try it.

"Now Monk....Human, You could either help of get in our way, Either decision i don't have time to mess around" Khoros bit down hard to stop calling the man infront of him a monkey.

Kholette thought about what Khoros said. "A human soul...destined for heaven since birth. Maybe the pope?"
Kholette thought about it for a bit. "Or someone who is a direct descendant of Jesus Christ."
Kresh might have found out about someone like that, which would be the reason he's taking such a risk in the first place.
"What're you talking about, sister?"
Leticia was listening in. Kholette relayed her information telepathically.
"I encountered the demon Khoros and we're discussing how Kresh might actually get into heaven. He says that Kresh might be able to hijack a heaven-bound soul to reach there."
"Hmmm...that might be right. It sounds about as good as Kresh finding some way to cleanse his soul of sin so that, upon death, he can go to heaven that way."
Kholette suddenly starting speaking out loud. "So, if Kresh could find a way to remove the sins upon his soul, he could let his kill him and he'll go to heaven instead of hell. Then he can commense his assault on God."
"This is complicated, Kholette. I don't know of any possible avenues in which a demon could have his soul freed from the fiery chains of sin. Maybe Khoros isn't so wrong. Perhaps Kresh could have the pope or whoever do this for him."
"And Kresh is just the crafty swine to accomplish such a task if he can get someone of divine blessings to wash away his sins." Kholette said out loud again. "Damn, this is complicated."

As Khoros, Leticia, and the Saint were talking, Krelgeh(NPC you can use as a sort of anti-Kresh) slipped his diminutive form up beside them. Looking up, he became more acutely aware that he'd not even come up to waist high on a midget. Piping up in his squeaky voice, Krelgeh began explaining what he believed Kresh would do. "We believe that the Kresh will try to force an angel completely so that it can absorb either the angel's transsubstantiation or the angel's purity. However, there's the distinct possibility that the angel's soul could either destroy the Kresh, or make it so powerful that the Kresh will be unstoppable for even the God itself. Either way, the Lucifer loses. At transsubstantiation, the soul is completely cleansed. We cannot harm a truly pure soul. That's why no newborn is ever harmed directly by a demon."

For those looking towards the Saint, they could tell his eye was twiching with the new etheral being. It seemed like he was taking a lot of him just to be tolerating these people in truth, yet he made the eye stop, and kept listening.

"Then if that is the case, we have to find him now. You have any idea how many angels I have killed tonight? Thanks to him you fools have been coming out by the dozens." He said in a slightly angry tone. "I doubt he knows this city well, but I don't think it will take him long to figure out where a church is." He said as he started to make his way down a street. "He will probably think that is where the angels will come onto this plane from." He kept on saying as he kept on going.
