Hades approached with caution as he watched Allura use her powers to track down the necromancer.  His familiarity with the layout of this crypt made it easy for him to follow almost from the start, though Akira's gaze was more one of confusion up until the spell was finished.  "So he's here?"  Akira asked pointing to the end of the scribed drawing.  "Are you familiar with this part of the crypt Hades?"
[color=ed1c24]"Well, I've been over that way in the past.  It was my initial search point when he was located here originally.  Not an easy place to get to.  Well not for you anyway."[/color]
"What do you mean?  What's down there?"
[color=ed1c24]"oh... uhh... Reapers, fair few of them too."[/color] Hades looked over to Allura before continuing. [color=ed1c24]"You see Reapers believe that Akira here is... well, a bit past his expiration date.  The event that made him what he was, should have killed him and it's created a loophole that Reapers do not understand."[/color]
"They might go after Allura too..." Akira spoke turning his attention to her. "Not so much you, your vessel.  We should try to find another route for getting to this open room."  Akira once again pointed at the finishing point of the drawing.  He leant towards Allura and whispered "If we encounter Reapers, run.  Don't look back just run, they'll be more interested in claiming my soul than yours." Akira took a step back.  "Right then, shall we head out?"  More of a rhetorical question then anything else as he didn't await an answer before heading back into the crypts maze like corridors.

[color=ed1c24]"I know a short cut."[/color] Hades announced shortly after they'd left the ritual room.  The man raised his hand to wall and rested his palm against it.  A few seconds later and the wall appeared to be moving, like the flow of water. [color=f7976a]"This way."[/color] is all he said as he stepped in.  On the otherside, what appeared to be an even older corridor built between the crypts walls, filled with cobwebs but completely cut off from the crypts stagnant smell of death, what it lacked in any form of visual pleasing it made up for in more pleasant smells.  "Hades will typically use a portal network." Akira explained.  "So long as there's something on the other side he can turn any wall into, essentially, a magical doorway. Come on."  Akira took Allura's hand as he began to lead her down the ancient corridor, as they progressed the area got more and more claustrophobic to the point they were  squeezing between walls sideways on in order to advance.  "Couldn't... of picked... a wider... corridor?" Akira questioned as he forced himself through, his leather armour clinging to the stone and resisting his movements as he went.

[color=39b54a]"They... they were staying with an old woman here in the town."[/color] One of the demons had stepped forward and offered information to Irvine and Lance in light of the authorisation of the town to be purged.  "Is that right?"  Lance asked openly for the tavern patrons to object if they wanted to.  "Fair enough, where can we find her?"
[color=00aeef]"Wait! Wait!"[/color] Another patron called out. [color=00aeef]"They left town, they're heading for the crypt on the outskirts, they said they'd help take care of the undead creatures problem.  There's no need to involve the woman."[/color]
"And you know this how?" Lance probed.
[color=00aeef]"I overheard them talking about it when they were still here."[/color]
"How do we know you're not just trying to save your own hides?" Lance asked.  The tavern patrons started to get rowdy claiming that the patron had spoken truth.  "Ok... ok you've proven your point."  The hunter exclaimed.  "Demon come here for a sec, we still need that woman's name."  As the demon stepped forward toward Lance, Lance drove a blade through its stomach.  "You... you offend peace keepers everywhere, you would give up one of your own to save your own skin.  Even when you knew full well that they were no longer in town." Lance withdrew the blade as the demon fell to the ground.  "Peace keepers! You have my word that no purge shall be undertaken in this town!  Irvine, lets go." The demon hunting pair then left the tavern their goal was ahead of them, the towns local crypt, a dead end.  At long last they'd be able to catch their mark.
