Disclaimer: another day has passed and I still don't own slayers. *grumbles*
------------------------
Filia sat and waited until she couldn't sense the presense of the mazoku any longer before getting up and checking on Eros.
The boy was very unhappily kicking the door of the safe room, whilst Phylis sat inside playing with a wooden doll.
Filia picked Eros up and sat him down with some cereal, and thoughtfully watched him eat. The child was a handful, nearly always happy, hyper, but destructive.
Musing over her visitor from earlier she sadly gave Phylis some cereal too.
"What is to become of you Eros?" she murmered, watching him throw his bowl at Phylis, who instantly burst in to tears. Eros laughed at his sister, and then ran to find himself some clean clothes.
Filia didn't pay too much attention to her blonde daughter crying. Instead she followed Eros, who ran outside and very nimbly climbed up a tree to look around.
From the top of the tree, Eros jumped as far as he could.
Before he hit the ground he sprouted a pair of irridescent black dragon wings and glided for a bit, then gently landed on the edge of a stream.
"Did you see that Mammy?!" He cried running back to her, filled with joy at his achievement. "I nearly Flied without wings!"
Filia picked him off the ground and held him to her.
"Poor Eros." She said with a sniff.
"And mammy... I made something for you too." He wiggled out of her arms and signed at a pile of rocks. "It's a city mammy!"
"Very nice." She said crouching down to inspect it. "What happened to this one?"
"Monsters came and destroyed it!" He told her enthusiastically leaping on the 'city' "See, thats was the restaurant, and that was an inn."

Xelloss watched from Filia's roof as Mother and child played with a pile of rocks. Eros' idea of 'playing' was interesting to say the least Filia suddenly remembered the crying Phylis, so she went to the door, and called for her to come out, keeping a wary eye on Eros as she did so.
Xelloss took his chance, warped next to Eros, then away in the blink of an eye.
"NAMAGOMIIIIIIIIII! BRING HIM BACK!" She yelled at the sky, not a lot could be done though.
"I'll bring him back when finished." The mazoku said as if from nowhere, sounding slightly amused. Filia could hear Eros actually giggling.
"You bastard." She told the invisible Xelloss halfheartedly, slumping down to the floor in distress.
