Rhiath stepped out of the forest, smoke drifting off his body as he stopped his hellfire generation. He had left a path of cremated Shadowspawn behind him, easily marking the trail to take when he returned from this business.
The moment he stepped out of the trees, however, he noticed a familiar scent in the air. Following it, he was led to a small green house. He smiled.
You've been here, Inor. Recently, too. Can't be more than a day ahead of me, now. Although, I wonder...what is in this house that could hold interest for you?

Laura was in town, shopping for healing items. a small child came running up. "lady Laura there is a man out side your house."
Laura looked at the kid could drixel have come back. she thought. she rushed out of the store and back to her house. there she say a man. she stooped dead in her tracks and quickly drew her bow pulling back a arrow.
"state your reason Demon!!!" she shouted. not another one she thought

Rhiath was jerked out of his thoughts by the shout, raising his hands in a surrendering pose as he turned. The smile never left his face.
"My reason? For what? You angels can be so vague, sometimes."

Laura's eyes shot open. the small child next to her looked up. "lady Laura what does he mean?" he asked. Laura didn't take her eyes off the demon.
"he is a demon Pablo you cant trust a word they say, now run to the village and find shelter Pablo. ill take care of this demon."
Laura was looking at the demon never looking away. "What are you doing here answer me!"

Rhiath watched exchange with amusement, rolling his shoulders as if to relieve some discomfort from holding his hands up. In reality, he smiled wider as he felt the strap of his rife slide just an inch down his arm. Whenever he chose to lower his arms, he'd have his weapon in his hands, ready to fire.
"Not that it's any of your business, but I'm looking for a friend of mine. He passed through here not too long ago. By the smell of things, he stopped at this house, which I'm going to guess belongs to you. Which, of course, raises the question, 'milady'. What is an angel-in-hiding, such as yourself, doing with demons for company?"

Laura, still having her bow drawn back. "your looking for that demon. i should have killed him when i had the chance." she said.
"as for hiding who i am i have my reasons." she added.

Rhiath's smile faded. She knew what he wanted to know, but didn't want to tell him.
"In all kindness, 'milady', I could give an imp's backside about why you're in hiding. I really don't care. But if you see fit to keep information from me about my...friend, I warn you, I can ensure that you won't ever need to hide again."
Dropping his arms to his side, Rhiath caught his rifle in his right hand, swinging it up into position in a move that human eyes would have missed. Looking down the barrel at the angel, he spoke again.
"So, I'll ask one more time. Why," Rhiath chambered a round, pulling back to bolt to prove his point. "was he here?"

Laura knew she was no match for a gun. her arrow may hit him but he can shoot more. Laura kept her stance strong.
"he came here looking for aid. he was with my ex lover. they flew off about a day or so ago. "
Laura looked back at the demon. she was worried he was going to fire and start to destroy the village. she was making her stand here and now. there was no way this demon was going to cause harm on the village.
"anymore questions. if not you should leave."

Rhiath tightened the grip on his gun.
"No questions, really. And I've got no problem leaving, except for one thing..."

Laura tightened her grip. "oh what might that be?"

Rhiath looked through the scope, aiming at the center of the angel's forehead.
"First, you're going to set that bow down, along with any other weapon you have on you. If you don't, I'll shoot you, and you won't have to worry about fighting anything ever again."
"Then, you're going to go inside, and gather your things. Enough for, say, a three-day's journey. You're going to help me track those two down. If you're nice, I'll let you say goodbye before you leave."
"At the end of three days, if we haven't found them, you're free to go. Any funny business, though, you're gone. Oh, and if you wish to complain, take a close look at my gun, here."
Rhiath added a little hellfire to the gun, making the end of the barrel glow a bright, sinister red.
"Any questions?"

Laura knew there was only one way out of this. for the sake of village she sad to do this.
"do what you want to your friend but the he travels with must not come to harm. i will pay any amount to make sure the only harm done is to your friend. do we have a deal?"

Rhiath nodded quickly, allowing the fire to return to him from the gun. He kept the gun raised.
"Sounds like it to me. You have 15 minutes. Any longer, and I pack for you."
Stepping away from her house, Rhiath jerked his head in the direction of the house, indicating that the angel would be wise to be quick.

"i see money sticks a cord with you i will pay you 5,000 coin now to make sure no harm comes to me or the village. and 5,000 for not harming my friend, also save travel back to the village for the two of us."
Laura quickly ran into her house and picked up a few things. she stood at her front door locking things up and left a note for the people letting them know she was going to be going for a few days. she made her way back the demon with 5,000 coin
"here i kept my end of the bargain"
Laura allowed the demon to lead the way know full well she was going to follow him to find Drixel and the demon.

Rhiath raised an eyebrow as the angel paid him. He'd made no mention of money, but if the girl was offering, he wouldn't say no. He had no problem doing what he was paid to do, so something so minor was no obstacle.
"Alright. Let's go."
Rhiath led the way out of town, following the trail as closely as he could, asking for the angel's help only when he needed it.
