The City Of Angels

"Most of them," said Chaos, grinning. "But yes, some of them are still here."

"Some..."Faith muttered.She sat back and looked at the clouds,the fluffy shapes she could see and her mind drifting of memories of the other night.

"Hey guys," said Damien, swooping down from the sky. "Thought I'd get here early so I didn't interrupt anything."
"What do you have?" asked Chaos.
"The one pushing the demons around is a bloke named Alfonso," said Damien. "Big all-powerful demon lord, thinks he's king of his own little world."

"Don't they all?"Faith said shaking her head,"do you know where he is?"

"Not a clue," said Damien. "If I had to guess, I'd say he was somewhere to the south, since the most severe demon attacks have been around there, but I don't know."

"Should we go have a look down there?"She asked,turning to Chaos.

"Could be worth as shot," said Chaos. "Damien, be a good boy and go get Thanatos for me."
"Certainly," said Damien, flying off into the distance.
"And don't nick anything!" Chaos shouted after him.

Faith laughed an watched Damien fly off back towards the Castle.
"Bet he will nick something anyway,"She said with a grin to Chaos.

"Well, that scythe has a sharp side for a reason," said Chaos, grinning. "Light-fingered git's lost an arm to me before in similar circumstances."

"How long do you think it'll take to get down south where that Alfonso bloke is?"Faith asked.

"Depends how far south he is," said Chaos. "Could be an hour, could be a day."

"Hope it isn't a day,"Faith said,even though she had a great rest and an excellent breakfast she felt she couldn't fly that long.

"I doubt it'll take that long," said Chaos. "And right on cue, here's Damien with my scythe."
Damien landed in front of them, holding Thanatos.
"Thanks," said Chaos, taking the scythe. "Now empty your pockets or you'll limp forever."
Damien sighed and emptied his pockets - which contained what looked like the entire contents of Chaos's kitchen - onto the grass. Chaos swung Thanatos, chopping Damien's left hand off.
"And don't do it again," he snapped. "Now, sod off."

Faith winced as she saw Damiens hand tumble over the grass.
"You weren't joking,"She said.

"I never joke about my work," said Chaos, grinning. "I'm taking his bloody wings off next time, I swear."
Damien scowled at Chaos and took off, cradling his bleeding stump of a wrist.

"That did look painfull though."Faith said.

"I hope so," said Chaos, grinning. "Doesn't matter, though. He's half-demon. Recovers quick. It'll have grown back in a few days."

"In the meantime he has one hand?"Faith said,"nice..."

"Good system," said Chaos. "There's not much you can steal with only one hand."

"True."Faith agreed,moving her hair out of her face as she still sat on the grass.
