Disclaimer: I own nothing as always. Just messing with the boys.
Travin exited the room were the brother's whimper and sobs could still be heard, it was time to call John and see if he had indeed gain the knife. I need to get the knife away from him quickly before he learns what the knife truly can do. Tony was a fool; he had never learned the true power held in the small dagger that he had used to kill Delia. The only reason he had killed her was because during the fighting he had managed to gain control of the knife. Now that damned knife was in the hands of the hunters AGAIN!. It had been a pain in the ass getting it away from them the first time. Thank goodness that they rarely ever really looked at their weapons, or learn the why of how they worked. The knife in question was a simple steel blade with an inlay of silver that veined the center of the knife. Most hunters just believed that the silver was what had made the knife such a great killing tool. No that was not the case. The reason this knife could kill any demon was because he had given it to his human lover to protect her, form HIS kind. She was a powerful witch and such a lovely thing also. He had turned her powers to the darker side of things years ago when he killed her family, in order to get her to turn to him, his plan had worked. His little Ruby would do anything for him even kill his kind as long as he told her to. She followed because her black heart only beat for him, the human loved him. She had been his lover for year when the demons came for her. Their first attack had nearly killed her, the only reason she survived at all was due to the fact she would use her powers to kill, which only cause her powers to grow stronger. When the battle was over she had come to him and he had given her the knife. She took the knife and worked spell upon spell into the blade. She gave it all the blood sacrifices that it needed in order for it to become a demon killing knife, one that would protect her even if her lover turned on her. It was the only knife in world of man that could kill any demon of any rank. The spells that Ruby used to enchant the blade had been forgotten years ago and all who knew how to create such a blade were dead or demon's themselves.
Travin thought about his Ruby and how she had created the knife to protect herself and yet by making the knife she had signed her own death order. She was killed during the inquisition, burned at the stake for her witch craft. When her soul entered hell he did not bring her to him, No she had gone to Lilith, a much more power demon than himself. She took all witches to her cause; she liked to lead women into the craft as she had done with Ruby as a child. The only difference with Ruby was she had sold herself for more power, to add to her own natural ones, making the deal with Lilith what had sealed her fate. Lilith never let her pets live long lives she would stir up things with the human so that they would go on a witch hunt so that Lilith's pet humans would be send to hunted down and sent to her never knowing that she was the one what put the ball in play for their deaths. That way when they returned to her they burned with a new hatred of mankind key word there man. Losing Ruby was something Travin had always mourned. Not out of love but over the fact that her power would have been a great addition to his own powers. The fact that she had lost the knife was something else that had caused him grief. It had fallen into the churches cashes for time till the great revolts of Europe had happened and the church fell losing many of its treasures. Travin had won the knife in a deal he had made with a man just a few years ago, the man had wanted to become rich and was willing to trade a hoard of treasures that he had from an ancient church in order to extend the ten year plan. Travin had granted him a full life on the fact that he got his knife back. That had been the best deal he had every broker with a human. He had regained the demon killing knife. Once he had it he gave it to his mate, for her to keep it safe, plus he had to make up for things with Ruby once she had found out.
He had never dreamed that a lowly human would be able to kill his beloved, and take the knife as a trophy. If the hunters learned what the knife was truly worth it would be hell to pay for the demons. It was bad enough that Azeal had never been able to find Samuel Colt's Gun, if they lost both the knife and the gun to the hunters, their death toll would climb and the number of demon's willing to leave hell would end. That was why he had picked John; he had too much to lose by keeping the knife. He had heard the whispers about his youngest, and feared letting too many hunters near his boys. So Travin knew he would not call in other hunters to learn about the knife from hearsay, and since no books held any information on the knife he would turn it over without a fuss. The only thing Travin had to worry about was what to do when John tried to get revenge and came to hunt him down. The only way to do that was to give him something else to hunt down, and Kyle was perfect for that. He was going to let the hunter loose on the human, because the human wanted to keep the boys. He like to play with them and wanted to see what the father would do for the boys. Humans Travin would never understand them, they turned on each other so easily. Picking up his phone he dialed John's phone.
