You think I'd learn by now, there's never an easy way...

I was fuming as I followed Illyria back inside the hotel. Who the hell did she think I was? I realized it was probably just par for the course for God Kings to order their bitches around back in the day. But first of all, this wasn't back in the day and second? I was most definitely not her bitch. If she wanted to order some people around? She'd

I didnt' back down, only intensified my glare as she stood in front of me in a second. That time crap didn't shock me anymore, I'd been hangin' with Blue here for awhile now and I knew what she could do. She could kick my ass all over this hotel and back again and I didn't give a fuck. Maybe even some small part of me wanted her to.

I hated this. That she had something to hold over my head. But the long and the short of it was I could go crazy or I could suck it up and bite my tongue and let her help me like the pathetic puny mortal I was. Fuck, she was so damn frustrating sometimes.

"I don't watch how I speak with anyone, you should know that by now." I said as I folded my arms over my chest. "So let's just do this thing. Work on my brain, get me uncrazy so that we don't have to owe eachother anything. Right?" She said she needed me as a guide, but I knew I was the last person ever who should be teaching this whack chick what right and wrong was all about. She had to know it too. She probably had someone else all lined up, and that thought bothered me way more than I wanted it to.

"You should watch how you speak with the one who holds the key to your sanity." Before she was able to open her vile mouth, I knocked into a chair and quickly moved my mind, my power into her brain. The darkness had seeped further, erasing our past work and moving further into the recesses of her mind.

I moved through the newest sections quickly, eradicating the newest spread of the infection easily. The tendrils were moving quickly and it took some time to destroy them all and begin work on the main area of the disease. It was strong and dense and only caused my determination to increase.

I knew the level of the power I was using in the slayer's mind might soon cause irreparable damage. I began to lessen the strength of my work, but continue undaunted. After several hours, I could feel the strain on the brain matter of the slayer and knew it was time to end this. I had reduced the spread of this darkness markedly and would continue to do so again.

But this slayer was weak and easily damaged, so I knew we must wait for a time. I pulled myself and my power away from the slayer's mind and watched as her feeble body slumped to the side. I could still feel her spirit, her heart, and her soul inside and knew she would recover. Easily lifting her in my arms, I moved her to the bed and left her there as I made my way to the roof.

I needed the stars. And I needed to contemplate the thing I wanted next from this mortal.
