Lucius stopped dead in his tracks at the voice of the General, this demon could quiet literally kill him with one blow but he hesitated to do so. The real question was, what was Lucius going to do about it because the demon made a point, it was foolish to come in here alone. As he thought he became aware of the fairy the darted among the dead branches. What in the hell was a fairy doing here? It didn't matter, Lucius needed to speak and then, an idea came to mind.

[color=gold]"Oh great demon,"[/color] he paused, getting down on one knee. It was a fact he hated but it needed to work. [color=gold]"I am looking for someone dear to me, I fear that they have fled into this... place, to get a better look at it. Stories can only go so far I'm afraid!"[/color]

Now for the tricky part, he raised his voice, hoping to project it so that a certain angel could hear him. [color=gold]"Yes! As a matter of fact, I was really hoping that the person I was looking for would actually have made their way back to our home, while it was [i]relatively safe[/i] and free of getting[i] distracted![/i]"[/color] This was so embarrassing he thought. It was a long shot, Lucuius didn't even know if she was around here but he tried nonetheless. 

[color=gold]"I really hope that they just [i]run[/i] back to the border, if they are still [i]here![/i] That would make this so much better for both sides, if my dear would just [i]run home now[/i]."[/color] He stopped shouting, hopefully it would have the intended effect. 

[color=gold]"Anyways, with your express permission General, I would like to conduct a short search of the area, in hopes that I can find my dear beloved before it is too late. I can not bear the thought of loosing someone so close to me, after all I have been through. Perhaps you can sympathize with me?"[/color] he said, pretending to be sad.
