Setting
Cyrus waves a hand in front of his face.
"And speaking of mutated or demonic or whatever..." he turns to Ryu. "What are you? Your blood reeks!"
Tapping his finger on his chin he had an idea and he touched the door to the basement once more. He snapped his fingers as he called on minor demons to pass through the material objects like wisps of ghosts. The beings making themselves known by faint black clouds seeping in through the floor of the basement. Each busting the lights of the basement room to cut off all sources of light.
"Little pigs Little pigs let me come in," Mammon said smiling as he felt his demons bust out the light in the room. His eyes filling with black and his teeth becoming jagged and sharp. "Not by the hairs of our chiny chin chins."
Cyrus focused on the vault door, however. He wasn't afraid, but he had at least some sense to know that it was an ill omen. He almost didn't hear Chaun or Ryuu talking as he, himself, readied himself for action. He began taking stock of all the objects near by, and more importantly, all the places to run and hide. Then what Ryuu said began to dawn on him.
"Right. A fight. Inevitable and all that sort." He narrowed his eyes. "Good luck with that. Try not to bleed too much."
Of course, Cyrus was already forming plans in his mind on how to better use Ryu as a diversion long enough for him to run to safety.
Mammon would then just slip on through the vault door passing through the metal door as is specter. The human body, that mammon had possession, it's skin broken and peeling as long nails tore the ends of it's fingers and horns ripping the top of his head. The room dark but his eyes gleaming in the darkness.
"Sorry, kiddies, but Hell doesn't let it's victims just leave." Said the voice in the darkness. Mammon allowing brief moments of intense fire light to flash to reveal his horrible visage on the others.
"They're all yours, oh mighty being of evil. What might a humble servant of the darkness have the greatest honour of calling you?"
Yes. Cyrus IS a shameless weasel.
"I swear I make it out of this alive I'm gonna hunt you down and kill you. Slowly." He was still annoyed at Cyrus' earlier comment but this was just. He couldn't describe it. The yoshi then turned his attention back to the demon.
"Well. I guess I might as well go out fighting. Better than just giving in to this... thing."
The room still had moments of intense fire light that lasted for seconds like a slow strobe effect in the entire room. And when one flash appeared Mammon's right hand was covered in a black flame. A Hell Flame which burned hotter then any mortal flame created could ever burn, but at the same moment gave no light.
In the second strobe of bright light he had teleported effortlessly behind the young mage, Violet. Lifting his clawed hand covered in flames in movement that was all but a blur. And Attempting to strike straight through the young man's chest and vaporize his heart. Which would be easily down if nothing could or would be done about the attack, the amount of strength, the sharpness of the claws and the intensity of the heat from the black fires could go straight through flesh like a hot knife through melting butter.
"I am Mammon you insect! And you are not worthy of addressing a demon lord of the highest council. You all are merely just my food. Souls for the taking! Through don't worry because through this death you shall know eternal life in the pits of my hell!"
When he was finished with the body he looked at the others that were in the room with him. The Vampire and the Dragon boy who looked like he was wanting to put up a fight. Mammon lifted his hand, the arm which hung the dead body, and ran his hand along his horns like a man would slick back his own hair. The body raising and falling as his arm did.
Mammon finally looked at the body hanging from his arm and pushed it off. The corpse hitting the floor with a loud and heavy thud. He looked at the boy though all of a sudden when he heard the sound of metal in a the pouch. What could the young dragon boy be hording.
"What-what do you have there?" Mammon asked tilting his head towards the young man.
