(Sorry Buffy is shorter than Anya!)
Marik sat on the floor in complete concentration. Sweat beaded his forehead a low hiss broke the silence causing him to jump. He looked around startled. "So you chose to disobey me?" asked the voice.
"Who said that?" Marik asked darkly.
"Me you dimwit," said the Chaos demon stepping out of the shadows.
"You! How did you get in here?" Marik snapped.
"It wasn't hard," The demon said. Marik clutched his Millennium Rod so tight his knuckles turned white. The demon must have noticed because then he added, "I'm not here to kill you, if you cooperate."
"What are you here for then?" Marik asked.
"Something you do, it intrigues me." The demon said with a slight smile.
"And what would that be?" Marik asked watching the demon closely. He could not afford some demon to go trouncing his work.
"The only thing you've got that's worth a demon's interest." The demon sneered.
Marik remained silent.
"That staff you have, it allows you to control minds does it not?" The demon asked.
"But how-" Marik stammered.
"I felt you trying to reach into my mind." The demon said flatly. "But I want to offer you something, I know if I try to use the staff it won't work. I can't override the magic it's to strong. But if you help me take over these two cities combined I will spare you're life."
"And if I refuse?" Marik asked.
"Then it's curtains for you," the demon said.
"I see the amount of power you offer is great but I know better then to accept can I have it in writing?" Marik asked slyly.
The demon sighed. "I suppose here," it snapped its fingers and a scroll appeared in one hand and a pen in the other. Marik read the contract carefully before taking the pen. He looked at the contract once again to make sure he hadn't missed anything and finally he signed his name across the line at the bottom. The contract disappeared and the demon was wearing a huge grin.
What have I gotten myself into? Marik thought to himself.
