 Here lies a long forgotten graveyard in the backyard just up the hill from a small two story home, full of crumbling tombstones and drying grass, surrounded by trees to give shade |

 Getting home from work, Rima unlocks the door to her home and walks in with a small sigh. Once inside, she sets the keys in a small ceramic bowl before heading into the kitchen, pursing her lips when she sees a note on the fridge Carter left for her, turns and starts getting out some things to brew some tea, too lost in thought to pay much attention to the open window down the hallWords: --- Addressed: --- Mentioned: --- |

Silently, Elias slipped through the window, eyes bright in the dim hall as the sun had begun to set. He looks both ways, and spotting the kitchen and hearing someone move around, he started that way quietly. To an untrained eye, he looked like a normal kid, minus the violet eyes that were glowing and the silvery hair that glinted like moonlit silver.
He knew who his target was, and just as he was trained, he showed no emotion or regret. Only stone cold intent as he continued towards the room, dark knife in hand against his black jeans, his gray jacket over a white tee.

Hearing something down the hall to her left, she pauses, clutching the teapot loosely before she sets it down. Gaze growing sharper, she pulls open the drawer silently and slips out a small sharp kitchen knife. Fisting her hand around it, she turns slowly towards where the sound came from, senses slightly dull from old age but still there "Who's there? Show yourself."

"Who's there? Show yourself."
Elias froze near the doorway, just out of reach of the light. His muscles coiled as mentally, he swore to himself for not having been more careful. Twisting the knife in his hand, he weighs his options. Show? Or hide and return?
No. He wouldn't leave.
He edge around and stood a few feet in front of the door way at the edge of the light, eyes bright in the light. What was the point? The woman was going to meet her fate either way.

Hearing a small noise near the doorway, her eyes sharpen and she stares at it, goes rigid when she spots two soft violet orbs in the darkness. Teeth gritting, she holds the knife up more height-wise, bringing it in closer to her chest, gaze somewhat cold "I expected someone to come after me, but I certainly wasn't expecting a demon." she murmurs, voice chilly as she takes a step towards him, movements calculated
Driving out of town to the outskirts, he turns onto Steele Drive and hums softly along with the radio before cursing under his breath when his truck starts to stall. Sighing in irritation, he pulls off to the side of the road before his engine dies and climbs out to check it out, popping the hood on the way.

"I expected someone to come after me, but I certainly wasn't expecting a demon."
Elias's head twitched to the side, eyes looking at her but nowhere at once. "They can't be too careful." His muscles uncoiled as he let his anger roll away for a heartbeat, focusing on nothing more than his task at hand.
"We demons are more reliable than humans can be."

Finding out it was simply the radiator fluid, he refills it then slides back into his truck, tries the ignition twice before laughing in relief when it turns over the second time. Patting the dash gently, he sighs before continuing on his way, pulls into his aunt's drive, making his way up the hill to the house
"They can't be too careful."
Watching as his eyes glance over her, she pauses mid step a moment before laughing lightly at his words, barely heard "I suppose." she murmurs softly, gaze sharpening "But don't think I'll make this easy for you."
"We demons are more reliable than humans can be."
"I doubt that very much." she replies almost immediately after he finishes speaking, less than a foot away from know, knife held securely "Now why don't you get out of my house before things get messy." voice cutting through the air, she starts to bring the blade at him before stiffening at the familiar rumble of a engine, freezes, face paling, distracted for a moment as her head snaps to the window

"I suppose. But don't think I'll make this easy for you."
Elias's lips twitched in a dark smile, and slowly the night seeped into the room and surrounded him, changing him from his solid form to a mass of darkness. His eyes were all that were left, though now they were a glowing byzantine with no sign of humanity left in them.
The form floated around her, dark tendrils reaching out and licking at the woman's skin, a couple reaching and tightening around her limbs. "It's already become easy," growled multiple voices as one.

"It's already become easy,"
Rima jolts, hissing softly as she's restrained, struggles for a moment to bring the knife up before she grits her teeth, eyes closing a moment, face flashing with pain as she hears the truck get closer "So you've caught me." she murmurs, resigned as she looks at him, gaze calm "I just have a request. If you're going to kill me, do it quickly. Not for my sake, but for his. He doesn't need to walk in on my murder. It'll be bad enough on him when he finds me."

"So you've caught me. I just have a request. If you're going to kill me, do it quickly. Not for my sake, but for his. He doesn't need to walk in on my murder. It'll be bad enough on him when he finds me."
Something remotely human returned to the eyes, and slowly they turned towards the doors before settling on her. "Mercy for a human," it murmured with a scoff before the tendrils turned her own knife against her, embedding it into her heart. The illusion faded, leaving Elias standing where the mass once was, eyes distant as his hands gripped the blade.
"So unlike myself," he murmured as he left go and stepped back, letting her drop. He turned his head towards the door a moment before turning and darting down the hall, having left his knife on the table in a clumsy escape, his mind drifting elsewhere as his haze faded from his head.
Elias jumped out of the window, rolling and launching himself into a run, escaping into the woods.

"Mercy for a human,"
Pain erupting in her gaze as the knife strikes her, she grits her teeth and inhales shakily "Thank you." she replies calmly before coughing, gasping quietly as the pain starts to settle in, small half smile at his words, watching him
"So unlike myself,"
"I'd get going now." she states softly before crumpling as soon as he drops her, wheezes as she manages to turn slightly so she's laying on her back, gaze blurring as she looks up at the swirling fan above her, face paling as her eyes start to drift "I'm..." gasping for air, her words fail her a moment until she catches her breath "Sorry, Carter."
Pulling up in front of the house, Carter hums lightly to himself as he turns off the ignition before promptly climbing out to get the groceries. Lifting them, he smiles partially as he walks to the front door and opens it. Setting the bags down on the table just inside, he sheds of his jacket as he starts to turn the corner into the living room "Rima, I'm home." he calls before he goes rigid at the sight of her lying there on the floor, shirt covered in blood
Shock hitting him, he stares numbly at her a few moments before adrenaline takes over and he springs into action. Running over to her, he kneels by her and tries to find a pulse, almost laughing with he does, albeit faint. Pulling her into his lap, he puts pressure on her wound "Please. Just hold on." he states before it hits him that he should call an ambulance. Eyes wavering, he swallows before he removes his hands to pull his cell out of his pocket, talks to the dispatch hurriedly. Turning back to her after hanging up, he goes to help her again, stilling when he fails to find her pulse, eyes fill with fear
"Rima? Rima, please!" he whispers, voice cracking. After several attempts of trying to resuscitate her he pulls her back into his lap and breaks down crying, face buried in her hair, unmoving until the paramedics arrive five minutes later, blood all over his hands and expression vacant as he keeps muttering that she can't be dead while staring at the knife he just now noticed

Pulling into the drive of his house around 5:45, Carter's eyes waver, hasn't been here unless he had no where else to go. Sighing, he steps out of the truck and walks inside, heading immediately for the kitchen, avoiding the living room at all cost. Sinking into a chair, he exhales, head tipping back, stiffens at the sound of a voice behind him
"Where is your lover?" Lucifer asks, stepping out of the shadows, eyes glowing a brighter red then when they saw each other last "I thought for sure he would want to be here to welcome you after you change. Pity." he murmurs, tilts his head "You're early."
"He wasn't entirely thrilled about the whole thing, so I let him be. Either he wants me, or he doesn't. But even if he doesn't, I need the strength to do what I need to." Carter replies quietly, meeting his gaze squarely "So. Shall we get on with this?"

Dozorce stood at the edge of the porch with Riad, who stared at the boards of the porch, unmoving. "Are you sure you want to be here?" he asked his son, gauging.
"He's doing this for me," he whispered, voice low as he fought the what if's in his head. "I want to be here. At least for him."
"Even if he isn't the same man?"
Riad looked at him. "I fell for him all the same. He'll still be there, just hidden. And I want to make sure that he doesn't lose himself."
"If he lives."
"If he lives," Riad repeated, though more quietly as he looked away.
"We'll wait here, then, and let them get on with it. Once the change is out of Lucifer's control and left to fate, I'll make my strike then."
Riad nodded, kicking a small stone away.

"I see." Lucifer murmurs with a grin, steps towards him, eyes flashing "Yes, we shall." He states, arm out stretching towards him "Grab it."
Pausing a moment, Carter glances at his hand before taking it, confused. As soon as their hands lock together he jerks, trying to get away as pain hits him, gasping when the grip on him tightens
"No, no. You have to endure it. This is what becoming a demon is like. You didn't think it would be easy, did you?" Lips twisting in a smirk, he watches as Carter falls to his knees, irises pulsing red
