I do not own the Darren Shan Saga or the Demonta series. A crossover with Darren Shan' s novels. All characters are copyright of Darren Shan. I do own Harkin, Seb, Parco and in this sort of one shot like thing.

"Really now…" said Juni, interestedly. You didn't use that boys powers did you?"

"No, they don't even know Bernabus is dead," he says sadly. "But I plan to tell them. After you tell me something…"

She stared at him suspiciously, as he wasn't one for jokes. No, he liked jokes and played them often, but he never dared say jokes in the middle of a fight.

"What then is it that you want? Revenge?" she says snorting. "If you know that Beranabus is dead, then you must know who killed him."

"You're right, and I'll have my revenge that way. Now my proposition, before we fight?"

"Which is…" she asked suspiciously.

Harkin took noticed, "Don't worry, I'm getting the short end of the stick. If I win, than you have to answer one question of mine, no matter what it is…"

"And if I win?" she said smirking, liking how this was going.

He sighed, "If you win, than you can torture me in Lord Loss's world for all of eternity- if you wish to do so," he replied grudgingly.

"Fine," she agreed as she flew towards Harkin.

…………………………………………………………………

Seb and Parco looked at each other uneasily. They weren't sure f he would make it. Sure, many times in the demon world when things seemed to be in a pinch they made it out alive, but right now was different. He was fighting someone he knew a long time ago, before she joined Lord Loss.

As the last vampire had left the hall, the doors shut with magic and were closed with magic, as they were surrounded by hundreds of human hungry, destroying demons. Let the fights galore begin.

"Lord Loss isn't here is he?" asked Seb nervously. He hated the Demon Master. And with Juni here he probably wasn't far behind.

Parco watched him closely, "No, if he was here, there'd be webs all over the place, or something…"

"Lord Loss?" asked Gavner, not liking what he was about to hear.

"He's a Demon Master. You don't want to meet him personally," muttered Seb darkly.

"What about Harkin? He's left all alone there," said Darren worried.

"We can't worry about him now, didn't you say there are demons in Vampire Mountain, right now?" snapped .

"Yes, Seb I'll cover you check Harkin is still alive," said Parco, warry of stray demons walking about.

"Yes Captain!"

Seb closed his eyes, feeling the magic as it seeped into his fingertips, concentrating. This was his element, made him who he was. His ability defined him.

He created a small black hole. Thin as paper from the side, but its depth infinite. He placed his hands just above it and thought of the person he wished to see. Harkin, with his red hair and several pierced earings. To see if he was dead or alive.

…………………………………………………………………………..

"How can I survive this?" muttered Harkin thoughtfully.

Nadia, Juni was never into much physical fight, more magic. But the only problem ensued on to get close enough to her to hurt her for good, or to gain enough time to think of another strategy.

She moved her head slowly in pain several times to locate his position. As he squatted low, to prevent being seen. As he was about to change locations, as burst of rock and fire flew over his head, narrowly missing. He yelped backwards in surprise.

"There you are Harkin," she said sadistically. Harkin scowled, not happy being found so quickly. "Remember our little wager? We wouldn't want you to lose so easily."

He ginned and muttered some spells under his breath, as the ground underneath Juni's feet turned to quick sand. As she began to slowly, since it was harder and harder to pull her self out. Even doing that was painful. As if the quicksand was a combination of mud and wet cement.

As she slowly sank into the quick sand, Harking ran fast towards her. As he ran he transformed his right arm into a claw as he slashed at her, he went right through.

"Dammit!" cursed Harkin, as he passed through the illusion missing the quick sand by inches.

"That was, oh so close," she said smirking behind his fallen form.

"What?!" was all his response was as she blasted him with hot fire and rocks,

………………………………………………………………………..

"He's alive…" said Seb as he rejoined Parco, not looking happy.

Parco turned to look at him, "What's with that look?"

"Nothing, I'll tell you later if I get the chance."

Getting a chance would prove difficult, as the demons swarmed in they couldn't find the tunnel to close it. Demons one after another appeared, fire and hate in their eyes, or empty sockets. Growling and snarling, wanting to rip anything to shreds.

The vampires were picking them off easily, with whatever they could fight with and claws.

"Where the bloody hell is that tunnel?!" roared Seb, aggravated beyond disbelief, as he exploded a demons brains. Showered with blood, he used all his anger and made a path between the demons, in search of the tunnel.

…………………………………………………………………………

He staggered side-to-side, head bleeding. At the last minute he changed the fire to steam. But he narrowly missed some rocks, except for some hitting his temple.

Juni growled in response, sure he had a quick reaction time, or the damage would have been more severe. But…

'That was too close…' thought Harkin intently. Slowly healing the wounds on his head. It would stop bleeding, but the slightest movements made him wince in pain. Better pain than none.

"An illusion? Did Lord Loss taught you that?" spat Harkin bitterly.

"Why? Jealous. I could understand how you could be, Beranabus was always stronger than you-"

"SHUT UP!" roared Harkin, "SHUT THE BLOODY HELL UP! What the hell do you know about him anyway?! You betrayed us all!"

She sneered at him, her eyes flashed dangerously.

……………………………………………………………

"Blood?" muttered to him self softly. Slightly distracted.

"?" asked Darren standing beside the tall vampire, looking anxiously. He wasn't used to these demons. The anger and thirst for spilt blood, it was if not stronger than Murlough's.

…

Moving, right, left, skidding to continue forward. Was what the magic that Seb had controlled to tell him to do, a compass to the tunnel.

Seb saw the tunnel as more demons came streaming out. He kicked one harshly as it roared in pain and surprise, as it just came out of the tunnel. It had a lion's head, fish gills, a human's body, and elongated cat claws. As Seb glared at the demon, Parco blew its brains out, hitting Seb with blood.

He scowled, "Let's just shut this bloody tunnel, will we," he said no waiting before his hands twiddled around where he thought the endings of the tunnel was, as it dissipated.

The demons didn't look sacred or worried as they normally were. Seb was confused they normally screamed in response when faced with being stranded by the tunnel but… these demons weren't scared at all if…

Seb turned to Parco franticly. "That Juni! There's another tunnel!" he yelled. "She's planning to bring him over no matter what the cost!"
He now understood, the demon's laughter at their frantic attempts. The demons were triumphant. Or so he thought.

Five minutes passed, the demons began to melt and explode, being killed off.

"What's going on?" asked Darren franticly, seeing the demons being destroyed on their own.

Seb and Parco ignored him, and ran past him to where Harkin was trapped.

"She must have out a barrier that's why. The demons were a decoy, for her to get their real target," was all Seb said darkly.

As they skidded to the door, Parco stopped, as Seb collided right into the barrier. He cursed and shot lightening at it trying to break it.

"Stop it, will you," said Parco.

"Darren, , and Gavner ran towards them.

"W-What happened you ran away so quickly…" huffed Darren.

"There's a barrier, Juni is inside there with Harkin. I think she's planning to bring him to Lord Loss's realm…" said Parco softly, not moving his eyes from Seb if he were to try and break the barrier again.

"How are we going to break it?" said Seb franticly.

Parco was silent for a few moments before answering, "As a disciple, we were told not to save people if it were a small number. But Harkin, is a being of magic, which makes the situation completely different.

Seb looked at him funny, if he had already come to that solution himself, and was surprised that he had just came to. "A disabling spell?" questioned Seb, "That would work. But it's too slow with two people on a huge barrier like this unless we disable it at one spot."

"Yes, the quicker we do it the more possibility that Harkin is alive," said Parco.

……………….

Seb crashed open the door, as Juni was about to walk through. She was holding Harkin by the leg, limp, and bleeding nonstop.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" he yelled angrily. Wanting to strike.

Juni glowered at him, "He lost our wager. So I'll take him from here on out."

"Wager…?" echoed Parco worry lines on his face.

"That's none of your concern, it's between Harkin, and me" she replied icily.

As she slowly dragged his body, summoning the tunnel to him. Everyone was silent not believing that this could happen. She glanced slowly at Harkin, studying him closely. She didn't say anything else but walk through.

"Harkin's gone…?" said Darren surprise written all over his face.

"Actually no…"answered Harkin, standing beside Darren completely fine.

"What then who was that…?" questioned Seb suspiciously.

He just grinned, enjoying all this, "Just some rotting demon, and some rocks. Oh, yeah good job with dispelling tunnel decoy, so fast, or I might have really been gone…"

He chucked darkly and muttered, "Checkmate… look like I win."

"How come you didn't kill her if you could?" questioned Parco.

"I don't plan to kill her. It isn't her time to die. Or more rather if I did kill her, she's just come back to life…"

"About that… You've been keeping a lot of secrets about everything."

"I didn't plan to tell you before the fight, since I thought you'd get scared…"

"SCARED~!" roared Seb.

"My, mistake, you actually weren't scared…" said Harkin sheepishly but not quite convinced. "More off, deserting everything once you find out the truth…"

"Than what is the truth, everyone deserves to know," said Parco.

Harkin looked hard at him, "Fine take a seat, there's a lot you need to know."

………………………………………………………………….

All the adults well except, for Darren and Harkin, were in the dining hall.

"So, I left my family to be a vampire, and yeah… here I am now," he said laughing dryly. "What about you?"
"Me?" asked Harkin laughing darkly, "Sure, but it's pretty bad… I'm, I think 1500 years old, time passes and you lose how many years pass."

"Really? 1500?"

"Yeah, my mother was killed by my father in the demon world. And yeah… my half brother Beranabus found me killed our father, and the rest is relatively history."

"Really, 1500? That's older than me!" said Gavner roughly.

"Gavner! How's everybody?" asked Darren, changing the subject. Since Gavner had heard part of the conversation.

"Not bad. Almost no casualties, except some from the sick vampires, but the rest would find it a disgrace to die from the hands of a demon!" roared Gavner with laugher.

"Really, now…" muttered Harkin, grinning slyly.

……………………………………………………………………

"Death…uh?" said Seb to himself sadly. Who knew? "Parco…"

"Uh?" answered the old man.

"You need to know something…"

Yes, very open-ended. Please review, if you want me to continue it. Since I haven't gotten any reviews yet, I don't know what people are thinking. But it might be another crossover with something else, not sure yet.
