"Mhm." she answers. She opened her eyes and took a breath, "That was something." Lilith anxiously held her backpack close to her, her pan flag pin was more hidden the the other pins. She looked around, her eyes full of child-like wonder. Lilith smiled at Lamplight, she tried not to seem scared, not anxious, not nervous of what happened to her brother. She kept on holding onto the sleeves of the hoodie, Lilith zoned out into the distance.

Looking up Aeron frowned seeing that Hades wasn't doing all that well and eventually had to let go of the struggling demon, he was honestly a bit relieved, not wanting to deal with that or have Hades get hurt "Letting one get away isn't the end of the world so you should be fine" he said climbing onto his back again and smiling at the praise "thank you" Aeron said using the same hand trick to hook the blondes securely "right so let's grab the last one and finish this up" Aeron said preparing himself for the take off

.

Hades smiled "I can't wait to chill" before taking off as the bodies were secured, "Looking for a bull demon this one is the toughest but the last one and we can't afford to lose another one" He sighed looking around in a meadow where is usually was as he glided through the clouds. His tail was still sore as it had deep marks from the woman's nails so he kept it still letting it try and heal, "See anything?" He asked Aeron as he lowered them a bit so they weren't in the clouds letting them see clearly.

Auxedeia tried to move but she couldn't actually feel her legs so she ended up clawing backwards trying to get somewhere but she only got a few feet before she laid back down exhausted, A few tears rolling down her cheeks as she believed she was weak and hopeless like always "I'm always in these situations" She cried to herself but made sure to stay quiet as she didn't need to attract the attention of other bigger demons while it was still night time. As the tears rolled down her cheeks her teeth began to chatter again as the cold got to her

"yeah, hopefully a place where it's warm and where we can be alone, don't need any more disturbance to our first date" Aeron said, laying flat so he could have a lower more secure center of gravity as he leaned over Hades' shoulder to look for the bull-like demon he had just been told about "I don't see anything out of the ordinary from here" Aeron said as the other flew lower, he kept looking though because as Hades had said, losing another wasn't on their list of options and by the earlier description Aeron assumed all he could do to help this time was keep a look out for the bull

.

Hades smiled as he looked forward to it, Watching the meadow below he couldn't see it either. "Maybe it's in human form" He said not about to give up so they landed below in the field, He knew it made them vulnerable to being charged while he couldn't spot it but he'd take that chance as he needed to make sure it was here. walking around a bit he finally spotted the bull demon which was staring right at them pissed off, Hades snorted as the demon started to charge them so he let out what he was holding in his stomach a bunch of acid which went all over the demons face and front of it's body causing it to yell shifting to half form as it tried wiping the burning substance off.

.

.

Auxedeia couldn't help but think about the man Oliver that'd helped her the time she had a break down in the middle of town, Hearing foot steps she tried lifting her head to get a better look but failed. "Oliver?" She called out but after a few minutes the only thing that walked out of the bush was one of her wounded hell hounds, She grinded her teeth not happy seeing it limp. "Poor baby" She frowned hugging it to her side as it laid down with a small whimper

Aeron tilted his head "you'd have to be an idiot to go out alone at night in human form, but it could be a possibility" he said sitting back up once they were on the ground, he swiveled his head around trying to spot the demon and landed on it about the same time Hades had seen it, the bull did not look happy and their expression only got worse when met with hot acid, as soon as it went into it's half form Aeron knew it was dead, full form it may have survived because of tough skin but now the bull had no protection and Aeron felt safe enough to hop down and lean against Hades' leg as he waited to drag the body over

.

Oliver hadn't done much other than sleep since Aeron had showed up and suddenly run off again, he decided that this was getting boring and got up, stretching he decided to go check on the borders close to the forest again, from what he had heard the dragon had passed by there and he wasn't keen on making it easy for that demon to get through into their home

.

Hades watched the demon die as the acid ate away at him, "I could just swallow this one it'll make it easier to carry it to the cabin" He suggested his jaw splitting at the bottom ready to devour it and store it in his spare stomach. Looking back at the demon it started to shift into it's human form where it's clothing was burned to a crisp making Hades snort, "Yeah just put it on that back" He said as the smell of burning hitting his nose.

.

Auxedeia laid still not as cold as before as the hell hounds tried to keep her warm while she waited for daylight, It was too dangerous to call for help in the night as it would attract unwanted attention. Her body was already starting to heal but it would take quite a few hours before she would be healed enough to walk, Auxedeia closed her eyes as she ran her long fingers through the hounds red fur

"yeah, thought so" Aeron chuckled walking over and grabbing it by it's arms, crossing them over his back and chest like straps so he could haul it over "mind lifting me up? I don't think I can push them onto your back by myself" he sighed as he waited for the help, glancing around once or twice to make sure they weren't being stalked by any companions the person he was dragging around may have had. When he was back in place he repeated the same steps as he had done for all the others and braced himself "Okay, let's get this over with" he grinned

.

Oliver didn't have his brother's sight so in the dark it was a bit difficult to get anything done, he ended up wandering past their borders and into the trees to check if Aeron might be nearby-which of course he wasn't-or if Lamplight might have found her way over again, he doubted both these things but he wanted to go for a walk and this was his excuse to get out. As Oliver strolled around he started humming so it wouldn't be dead silent

He nodded and looked back at the carry-ons "so what is this trade for exactly? what are you getting in return?" Aeron asked turning to look at Hades, he couldn't see his expressions or anything so it was hard to tell what he was comfortable talking about from what was best left burried but this topic seemed safe enough considering Hades had taken him along when he could have asked to meet another time, it was either that or the taller man hadn't been on a date in ages and missed the affection.

.

He kept going through the twists of an imaginary path where he chose the direction that seemed less likely to get him lost or in trouble, humming all the way until he heard someone swear. Oliver focused on where the other noise came from and spotted a red hound, it took him a few seconds but he recognized it as Auxedeia's "where is she?" he asked assuming she was in trouble if she was all the way out here at night after what happened the last time she went out
