Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah ..... Sorry, I lied, I couldn't resist! ~_^

Chris had been following Eclipse quietly (for once) through the articulated- narrowed path. Perhaps that was do to the fact that Eclipse had threatened to kill him is he kept up his babbling much longer. Poor Eclipse had Chris's voice ringing his ear even when was forced to stopped talking.

"How much farther do we have to go, Eclipse?"

"Like how is he suppose to know, Erutis? I'm sure Eclipse hadn't been here before!"

"Shut up Chris, I wasn't asking you. Besides, Maybe Eclipse can see something that I can't. He's the one in the front."

All Eclipse could at this point is sigh and try to focus his hearing, elsewhere. If he were to tear them both apart, Raenef wouldn't allow him to hear the end of it, That is, if they would ever be able to find him. "Master Raenef....." He whispered with a slight tug at his heart. He tried not to think of the worst, though it was heavily taunting.

Erutis had shattered his concentration with a: 'Hey Eclipse, what's ahead?' He didn't know to be angry or be most relived for this sudden interruption. Whichever case his emotions ride on, he had faith in Raenef and knew in his mind that if all else fails of his rescue he would at least be able to keep himself in one piece.

"I have a feeling we may be close to an exit, Erutis."

"Good." She answered with a slight shiver in her voice. "I'm not sure how much I can take more of this tunnel thing. It is so disgusting. I mean we are kicking skeletal remains away as we walk through these gunk-caked walls...."

"Stop you're complaining, Erutis. It isn't like you so shut up!"

__O "Fine. I see how it is... Remind me to knock in your head the next time you complain the food isn't right...."

Eclipse slightly twitched. "Be glad I never hear you complain, HUMAN! I'm the one that does all the cooking.... Be grateful I don't throw you in the oven..."

"Erutis is the one putting words in my mouth, I never said I didn't like your cooking!"

"Oh no? So what do you call it when I see you poking at your shark-fin with your rice-serving chop sticks and pretending you are stabbing a demon body? Oh but of couse you never take a bite of it afterwards, then again why would......."

"ENOUGH!" Eclipse shouted, raising clutched fists up to his ears. Both Chris and Erutis had stopped dead in their tracks, shocked by the sudden burst. The flame which lighted their Pathway and dimmed out, obviously, leaving the demon to heave a heavy sigh and slowly lowering his fists, leaving one palm-side up to re-store the flame.

"Sheesh, what's the matter with you, Eclipse?" Erutis asked with obvious disrespect.

"If you both don't keep your mouth's shut until come to this tunnel's end, I will personally rid the world of you and with a great deal of pleasure."

"well fine, all you had to do is...."

"DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND, CLERIC? I AM TIRED OF LISTENING TO BOTH OF YOUR ITIODIC NOISE!"

... and Not a sound was made. ::Respect:: Eclipse thought with irritation. :: I demand respect:: "Now, shall we continue? I believe we are almost there." He asked a couple of disagreeing faces. Then the continued down the narrowed path.

".... Stupid demon." The knight mumbled what she thought was silently whispered. Chris elbowed her in the side of her rib cage.

"What was that, HUMAN?" Eclipse snapped, turning back around. Erutis of course, just shrugged, smiled and shook her head; Chris just glared at her.

A sharp eye was kept on her until Eclipse had made a full turn-around to continue their destination.
