"Micael cried, and I wasn't there to witness it? I'm so disappointed!" Ra's exhaled, running his fingers through his hair. The demon was not going to budge. "It seems that we are at an impasse, friend. How can we reach an agreement? You have no use for the girl, and I desire her greatly. I can give you anything. I can bring back anyone or anything. What do you want, demon? I can give you anything. Anything at all. If we cannot reach an agreement, I'll have to resort to less...savory methods." His voice was venomous. 

Effy curled into Gin, watching the cats intently. What was going on? She wished they would share what was on their minds. "How much longer must we stay here? The cats are starting to worry me...they almost look scared." As if hearing the questions in her mind, the hairless cat appeared at her feet.

"We are scared. A battle between a demon and a powerful Necromancer could mean death for us all. Fear not, though! Our protector is striking a deal with the evil one. If a deal is not reached, the Whore will be destroyed in front of the Shapeshifter and Necromancer. It sounds like a beautiful evening, doesn't it?" The cat purred happily.
