Ch.2 All Around the World

"Master Raenef! Don't fret my lord! We'll find you!" Eclipse shouted, as they searched the

entire castle and castle grounds for the demon lord. "Doesn't he realize that Raenef isn't here so he

can't hear him?" Chris whispered to Erutis as they searched. "I don't care, he can yell at the air as

long as he isn't shouting at us. But, you can't really blame him. He's just worried. I'm kind of worried

too, I mean who knows where Raenef is. He could be all alone right now, or he could be surrounded

by a pack of feral dogs. I mean he could be being flayed alive by a bunch of heathens as we speak."

Chris' eyes were wide as Erutis spoke. I never noticed but, she can be really, really morbid. It's

scary...she scares me. Erutis looked over at Chris and noticed the face he made. "What?" She asked,

not knowing why he was staring at her like that.

Meanwhile...

Raenef froze as the demoness walked toward him. She was 5'8" tall with long blue hair. Her

silver eyes peered out from behind her feathery bangs. Her high heeled shoes clacked against the

marble floor, and her long dress moved in a flowing motion with each step. She was dressed all in

white, matching the room they were standing in. The only bit of color on her was from her jewelry,

the gold earrings, necklace, and bracelets, that were barely visible beneath her long, long sleeves.

Gold bands were clasped at the tops of her arms, over the fabric. Her dress was slit up the side to just

above her knee. Raenef didn't move an inch from where he stood. "What is your name?" The woman

asked sweetly. "My name is Raenef." He answered calming down a bit. "Oh my! Lord Raenef the

Fifth! I had no idea you were arriving today. Well, you aren't more than 15 or 16 years old. You're

15 aren't you?" "Yes." Raenef answered softly, but then remembered one of his first lessons: A demon

lord is not meant to be kind, sweet or soft spoken. Never speak nicely or softly, especially around

someone of lower status or stature. A strong voice is imperative for all great demon lords. A strong

voiced person demands respect -That is Rule #17. Eclipse's voice echoed in Raenef's mind. "I mean...

yes." Raenef said standing up perfectly straight, and talking in his most powerful voice. The sudden

change made the woman laugh. "HOW DARE YOU ADMONISH ME VERMIN!"He shouted, only making

her laugh harder but she quickly regained her composure. "I'm sorry my lord...are you hungry?" She

asked kindly. He perked up instantly and nodded his head furiously. "Good I have lunch ready." And

Raenef followed her out of a door that he didn't even notice was there. "Oh, by the way my name is

Keaira."

Back with the search party...

Eclipse stood in the middle of the desert, Erutis and Chris walked up behind him, fighting to keep the

sand that was blowing, out of their eyes. Eclipse had brought Erutis and Chris with him to search for

Raenef, because he didn't trust them alone in the castle... He wanted it to be there when they got

back."It's no use. We'll never find him." Chris said slumping down in the sand . "Don't be so

pessimistic Chris." Erutis said brushing sand out of her hair. "I'm pessimistic? You're the one that said

he could be being flayed by heathens!" "Enough." Eclipse said in a stern voice. "I have an idea." He

said, closing his eyes and frowning. "What is it?" Erutis asked her eyes flaming with hope. "This is a

last resort. I would not have even fathomed this thought if it were not for Master Raenef." He let out

a low sigh. I know I am going to regret this. "Follow me." He groaned. (Uh, I kind of... have no frickin

clue how they would get where they are headed so bear with me, kay?) Within minutes the group was

in the hallway, leading to a large room. Heavy pieces of cloth closed off the entrance. Eclipse pushed

them aside. "Ah, Eclipse. I new you were coming. What is it that you need?" The black haired scantily

clad demoness asked. "Meruhesae. I am looking for Master Raenef." "And you came here because you

think that I can help you?"She said shifting on her bed like thing. "You're a seer I know you can help."

Eclipse said. Erutis and Chris looked around. "Hey Chris?" Erutis nudged him in the side with her

elbow. "Yeah Erutis? What is it?" He asked looking at her. "I am having the weirdest case of deja vu."

She said. "Me too. We've been here before. I know it." "I know what you mean. Everything is so

familiar, even that demoness, Meruhesae." Erutis said. Chris' eyes went wide. "I remember when we

were here!" "Really? When?" "This was where Krayon sent us when we first met him! It was that

demon's dream we were in!" He said pointing at Meruhesae. "Oh shit! I think you're right. Oh no. This

was where Krayon first confessed his love to me." She said groaning. Chris looked at her strangely.

"Why do you remember that?" He asked. Erutis didn't answer, or even look at him. "By the way

Eclipse. I never did get my reward for the past two bits of guidance that I have given you." "This is no

time for games Meruhesae." Eclipse growled. "I can't." "What the hell do you mean you can't? Of

course you can! Just tell me where he is!" "I'm sorry Eclipse. I couldn't tell you even if I wanted to."

"That's it. I don't have time for this." Eclipse growled, and walked out. Erutis and Chris immediately

followed. "We'll find him on our own." Eclipse said as they re-embarked on their quest.

Eclipse dragged Chris and Erutis all around the world. Every town they went to, Eclipse would

either burn it down, pillage, or pillage and burn, to get information about Raenef. They had been

searching for a little over a week since they re-embarked on their journey, yet had come up with no

clues as to where Raenef was. And Meruhesae was really no help at all. Eclipse sat down on a large

rock while a newly visited town sat behind him, engulfed in flames. "Don't worry Eclipse, I'm sure we'll

find Raenef. I mean this isn't the first time he's disappeared, and we found him those other times."

Chris attempted to reassure the raven haired demon. "But this time is different. Those times master

Raenef left at his own accord, he did not disappear in a flash of light." Erutis sat down on the ground

next to him. "I'm not so sure it'll be easy Chris. It could take along time." "Now, now my love, don't

be so pessimistic." A voice sounded from above their heads. No it wasn't god. It was someone much

less...wanted. Like an ex-boyfriend that stalks you so you hit him with your car, but he gets back up

so you hit him again, and again, but he just won't die, so you get annoyed and tranq him, then throw

him in a pit, but he shows up at your house the next day begging you to take him back so you hit him

over the head with a cast iron skillet, and take him out to the lake and weigh him down with cement

blocks so he'll stay down, and you think you've seen the last of him but he shows up at your school

the next week as lovey as ever as is if you never even tried to kill him or break up with him... What?

Not that it's ever happened to me.. It uh... happened to a friend, yeah right a friend. "Oh no, what

are you doing here!" Erutis said in an annoyed voice.

Kimika: Teehee. It's so funny. She "hates" you sooo much.

Krayon: glares at her

Kimika: What's the matter Mr. Demon Lord of Egae?

Krayon: Do you d- wait... what do you mean by "hate?"

Kimika: Oops. I've said too much. Please review. Thankies.
