	Maximilian and I walk Nic and his father to the door. Nic stops just past the doorway, and I stop. I look at him curiously, until he asks his question. I fiddle with my hair and wave goodbye to Mr. Wu before speaking. 

	[color=#DB7093]”I understand, but Nic… Demons aren’t the worst thing out there. I have my problems with them, but Nero was instrumental in helping us get your dad to safety. I understand wanting to ease your way into this, but we can only do so much easement.”[/color]

	I barely hear them speak; it’s like being underwater. However, I am hyper-focused and attuned to every movement they make. So when they move their left hand, I grab it to stop them. I want to turn them around, to examine the scar on the back of their neck further, but something on their left hand feels strange.

	I look down, turning their hand over and see the burn mark covering the entire palm of their hand. [color=#006400]”Do you know what happened to this body?”[/color] I remind myself they are a demon, and the body they ride is the one who had been tortured, not Nero.
