[quote=Stryder] Mason halted all warrior instinct to draw his weapon at the slightest sound, he instead turned around to face the girl who was oddly enough sizing him up as if she were analyzing something about him. His eyes widened a little when his name was spoken by this young girl, that made him uneasy but he wasn't just going to attack. "What is rank in hell, right? Besides, it's none of your business who I affiliate myself with." He said, staring down at her, his arms crossed.

" ill make you a deal, i know where every gate is located, along with its guardians. all i ask in exchange.." she slid her hands into his. "is to give this old lady a shot at romance one last time, tehe!" she smiled. she seemed harmless, like a schoolgirl, and light hearted.
