The High priest said "Lady Lily is needed right now. She is the only maiden I have today. And to your other requests, of course. You are free to roam where you need to. But Lady Lily must come with me now" Lily looked at Garoth and said "It will not take long. I shall come back.." She headed up the steps and went inside with the high priest. They went into the alter room and Lily saw nothing was set up for the mid day ceremony. She turned and saw the high priest shut the door. He smiled darkly and said "I wish you had not known those things, Little Lily...I was going to save you for last...." Lily fell to her backside, trying to get away from the high priest who was turning into a monster before her eyes. She couldn't scream. Not a sound as fear gripped her very heart. The spider demon hissed and Lily cried softly. "Lady Shade..." The demon jumped at her but the mark appeared on her forehead and the shadows jumped out and grabbed her, causing her to vanish. 

The demon screamed in anger and the door burst open, Lady Shade standing there with her cloak over her head. She smiled and said "Hello monster..." she tossed the cloak off and shifted, taking her wolf spirit form. The demon hissed at her and tackled her, both of them landing in the courtyard. The other priests and priestess screamed and tried to get way, the shadows around them shielding them from the attacks from the two beings fighting. The spider demon hissed at the wolf and said "What are you?! Where is your brand!?" The wolf laughed and opened her mouth, black and silver energy bursting out and hitting close to the demon. "I am not labeled, demon...but soon you won't be when I'm done with you..." The spider hissed and shot stingers out, hitting the wolf in her back. She jumped back, feeling the poison running thru her but she barked at the demon. He laughed and said "Soon you will be dead anyway, spirit!" She chuckled and said "Your not that smart are you? I don't need to kill you...the guild guy here will finish you..."
