It might be stormy now, but it can't rain forever.

Micah could already feel his sisters prodding at their bond, trying to figure out what was happening by his emotions and thoughts. He sent them a quick message to get out of his head and be patient. It was hard to focus on what he had to do when they distracted him. "I am a prince." Gee, wonder how she figured that one out. "I work with my father and mother, the king and queen, while I train to rule. Yes, I follow their orders, but that is part of my responsibilities as a prince to my kingdom. Being royal doesn't necessarily mean I can do what I want." Maybe it was different for demons, but the king and queen were ranked higher than Micah, and he had to obey their wishes. As prince, Micah had a lot of power, but their orders always would override his until the day he took the crown.

To say he hadn't expect this type of response from her would be a lie. He fully expected the demon to put up some resistance. Micah stood unfazed when her eyes began to glow and she shifted into her demon form. A small ball of light formed around his fingers, but he made no move to throw it at her. He had no desire to. He wasn't here to hurt her. He only wanted to talk, but he did want to make sure she knew where she was. A demon like her stuck in an angel cell. It would be wise to keep her temper in check. He made the light ball disappear before he spoke again. "I said you did nothing wrong. I never said we didn't bring you here for a reason. We have questions for you about the war that you can decide whether you answer or not." Micah knew he couldn't force her to do anything she didn't want to do, and he didn't want to anyway.

Echo Rigel

Don't worry about the darkness in my soul.
It ignites me like an embered coal.

Echo suppressed a sigh when he walked up to his home and realized his parents were inside instead of out and about. He turned around and walked away, not wanting to deal with them now. There were other places he could go for a nap. He didn't need to sleep at home. He made his way to the training grounds for the apprentices instead. But the apprentices weren't what caught his attention. It was a demon, clearly not part of the tribe, wandering around. He could tell by her clothing she was probably royalty. She appeared to be looking for someone. By how everyone was looking at him. Echo could he was who she searched for. Maybe the gossiping was actually right this time.

[Francesca
Demonessia]

Francesca looked away as he spoke, her wings folded behind her. She then looked back at him as he mentioned his parents. "Oh... You still have your parents.." Her gaze fell to the floor, almost looking sad. "That must be nice.." She muttered, crossing her arms as she sighed softly. Francesca's parents are both dead, she only has her sisters now. But she won't go into that rabbit hole.

Francesca glared at him as he held up a ball of light in his hands, her tails flicking back and forth. After a bit of listening to him, she sighed, transforming back to her human form as she ran a hand through her hair. "Alright.. Fine.. Bene-" she straightened her head up to look at him. "I'll play. I like games anyways" her smirk returning as her cool demenour returned, putting a hand on her hip.

[Jesica
Demonessia]

Jesica had still been looking for a demon she didn't even know, when one of her guards left to speak to some demons nearby. It looked like some training grounds, goodness Jesica remembers when she had to train with her bow and arrow. It didn't look similar to her training grounds back in the castle, but it was sort of.. remenisance, in a way..

Jesica had seen peoples gazes, fiddling with her dress for a moment. She spoke aloud. "Hello. As you know, I am Queen Jesica. And as some of you know, the Siren Princess is missing, nobody knows what has happened. However, I have been told there could be somebody who could help me in the search of my missing sister." Jesica spoke with athority and grace. Her head held up high as she spoke.

Micah watched the demon curiously at her reaction to learning about his parents. She seemed more resigned and sad. It made him wonder about her parents, if they were still among the living, but he didn't press. Not at that moment. The information would be very useful to him, and a he would find a way to ask about her parents somehow. Instead of responding to her about his parents, he decided to move on to the questioning.

He didn't consider it a game. No, war definitely wasn't a game, but he didn't so say, to glad that she had agreed to go along with the interrogation. "I would like to know how many demon kingdoms are participating in the war? You are the princess of the Siren Kingdom, correct? Is your kingdom participating?" He would have liked to ask about how large the troops of the armies were as well, but... He had to see how much he could get out of her first before asking detailed questions like that. He paused and then asked, "How about your and the queen's parents? Are they participating and helping you as well?" Hopefully, his question about her parents didn't make her too upset.

As soon as the queen spoke, the demons in the surrounding area all pointed to Echo. He kept his gaze neutral, even as he wanted to give all the cowards a lesson. They took jobs like him too. The only difference between him and them was how cowardly they were. They were too scared to risk taking a job from the queen about her missing sister. What would happen if they failed?

Well, Echo would have to try not to fail. He hardly saw how he could refuse to do something the queen asked of him. He stepped towards her and went right down to business, not bothering to show any respect. She needed him. She wouldn't send him to prison for refusing to bow. "How much are you paying?"

[Azura ~~]

[Francesca
Demonessia]

Francesca's mother was a siren that lived in the human world. Her mother had only met her father when she ventured to the demon world, the king then had an affair and.. The rest is history in the Demon world.
Jesica and Francesca don't have the same mother, their father was a cold demon who followed Lucifiers every word. Due to this, King Lucifier has taken a liking to both the Siren Princess and The Queen of the Abyssal Ruins.
Francesca didn't exactly consider it a game, but she thought it was fun nevertheless. She looked back up at him as she'd been staring at the ground up until this moment, she then shrugged. "No clue on the exact numbers, but my kingdom will not be participating. My kingdom is only full of banshees, sirens and demons that do not have a home, they're not suited to fighting nor will I force training on them." Francesca was sisters with a queen and was close to Lucifer yes, but she wasn't told much.

She then smirked. "However, just to even the playing field, I'll tell ya a little something.." She the put her hands behind her back. "A little while ago.. Lucifer asked me to venture off to the human world to get some vampires under Lucifers control." She shrugged, she didn't feel as though this information was nessesary, since Francesca herself would be participating, her power alone would be enough for her kingdom. Francesca then blinked at him as he asked about her and her sisters parents, her smile dropping slowly as she sighed deeply. "Jeez you angels really know nothing huh?" She almost growled, she then sighed softly as she held up a hand, fingers counting down from three as she listed. "Fathers dead, Jess's mother's dead as well and who knows where my mother is!" Her hand slapped back down to her thigh as she looked away from him.

~~~~~~~~~~~

[Jesica
Demonessia]

Jesica didn't exactly know what she was expecting, but she certainly wasnt expecting everybody to point to one individual demon, this must be that demon the other little one told her about. She bowed her head to him politely, seeing as he did not do the same. She honestly didn't think much of it.

Jesica looked down on the ground as she thought. She then looked back up at him. "In all honesty, price doesn't matter to me, you could have whatever price you wish if you suceed to help finding my sister." She spoke in honesty, Jesica didn't really care for her own money, seeing as she had literally tons of it-

Micah knew he and his parents had been hoping for more useful information from the demon, considering her sister was the queen, but they could make due with what she had given them. It was good to know her kingdom wouldn't be participating. They could at least rule out one. And knowing vampires might get involved was another good piece of information. They could take necessary steps to ready their army to deal with and be prepared for the vampires. Any information they could take to lesson the chance of a surprise during battle was useful... He just wished they didn't have to prepare for battle. Micah took a deep breath in. This type of stuff was necessary for his training to become king, but it didn't mean he liked it. He kept thinking about all the people they could lose, and this seemed pointless, even as he thought of his brother.

His gaze softened slightly when she said how her father was dead and her mother was missing. He had figured by how she reacted, but this would still be another useful piece of information for his parents. The queen really was without her parents. He decided not to push the matter of her parents anymore. "How many..." Micah tilted his head when someone shouted in his head. He turned to the guard beside him. "Princess Amaris snuck into the prison and is lost. Can you please go find her?" The guard nodded and left. Micah turned back to the demon. Amaris would have to be lost for a little bit. She shouldn't have become impatient and decided to come after him. "How many vampires did you get under your control?" he asked, directing his attention back to the demon.

He could have whatever price he wish. That... honestly wasn't very much. He didn't feel like he needed to have a lot of money. All he wanted was enough to live life comfortably, and that meant enough food to get by and a place to sleep at night. Whether the place he slept was in a house or in a tent, he couldn't care less. "What exactly will be expected from me?" Echo asked. He could come up with a good idea for a price when she told him.

[ Francesca
Demonessia ]

Francesca sighed softly, calming herself down. She honestly didn't mean to snap but the thought and question of her parents sent her into a fit. Her eyes then turned back to brown as she stared at him, she honestly didn't know what to say so she just kept looking at him. She didn't know his name, but she had to admit she was curious. She liked making nicknames for people so she'd remember them easier.. She'd guess she'd just call him angel for now..
Angel interested her in a way. A prince of angels, parents alive, no siblings-

Francesca then tilted her head when he started speaking about a princess. "A princess?" Her face was serious, a princess means he had siblings, or it was his fiance or something.. "So either you have a fiance of some sort or you're not an only child" She smiled softly, reminded her of her own siblings. Just now she realised how much she missed Isabella.. Her younger sister is probably going crazy without her.. Francesca then looked up at the angel when he asked how many vampires she controlled, she shook her head. "Sorry hun, I have to keep some things a secret~" she smirked teasingly.

[ Jesica
Demonessia ]

Jesica sighed softly as she thought for a moment, "You will expected to help with the detective work and any violence or fighting that may be needed. Is that adequate?" She tilted her head slightly, if anything, if he helped her find her sister, she'd be in forever dept to him.

"Maybe I have both." Micah answered her question curtly and kept his face dead serious. He was here to question her. She wasn't supposed to the one questioning her. He didn't want to give her any more information about his fiancée and sisters - yes, he did have both, but the former wasn't necessarily wanted- than he had to. For their safety. If she managed to escape, he didn't want her to be giving the demon queen this type of information. They already killed his brother. He hadn't been anticipating the soft smile that appeared on her face moments later. She probably thought about her siblings back home.

He kept his frustration from peeking through when she said how she would be keeping the number of vampires a secret. He could try to force the answer out of her. She was at the angel kingdom's mercy here. Demon princess or not, she was vastly outnumbered in a kingdom with trained soldiers, 3 powerful royal children, and a powerful queen and king. However, he had already decided that wouldn't work and wasn't something he wanted to do anyway. "Well, is there anything else you know that you don't consider a secret?" he asked, knowing this might be a better thing to ask than anything specific. He began to use his light powers to form an object in midair. The light danced and beamed around his fingers.

Micah! This isn't funny! I really need you to get me out of this mess. Why is it such a maze anyway? Gosh dang it, Amaris. Her voice penetrated his mind, but he stayed focused on what he was creating. The guard would help his sister soon.

It would sound like an easy enough job if it wasn't coming from the queen of the demons about one of the princesses, but Echo wasn't one to shy away from hard work. "Yes," he replied, simply. He saw nothing more to say. He would take the job. Now, all he needed was to know where he would be working and what his first assignment was.

[Azura ~~]

[ Francesca
Demonessia ]

When he answered her question, she clicked her tongue in disappointment. "Dang.. You're cute too.." Her eyes turned a light blue as she looked him up and down. To others, she probably just looked disappointed, but to herself, she knew that she was testing her powers here. But, aside from that, she -almost stubbornly- was obviously disappointed at the fact he had a fiance. Don't get her wrong, it's not like she would've been able to charm him anyways, her powers didn't seem to be working here, the only thing they could probably do was give the angel some kind of headspin. He seemed pretty guarded and seemed unavailable, if that wasn't obvious. She then smirked, "you gotta tell me though~ What's her name? I wanna know" she said almost childishly, a bit of innocence to her when she asked about his fiance. It seemed almost impossible that she could have that kind of aura, yet she had an aura of childishness around her nevertheless. "Or him, y'know, if you swing that way." She smiled as she shrugged

She then smirked as asked his next question, however, she didn't answer. She simply shook her head, her brown hair moving along with her head almost entrancingly. She had stopped answering questions, that in itself was obvious now. She just sat back down on the ground croslegged as she shrugged to herself. She then looked back up at him, tilting her head slightly, trying to figure out what in the hells he was doing or creating. She then saw that he was waiting for an answer, "Vedi, vedi.. (You see, you see..) I can keep my mouth shut if I want. I don't really care what you do or say anyways." She spoke softly, looking up at him. Not with a glare or anything violent. Just a small smile that anybody could tell she was just tired and done.

[ Jesica
Demonessia ]

Jesica at first just blinked at him, she then smiled softly. "Thank you.. If you could come with me?" She turned slightly as she then continued to walk with her guards, expecting Echo to follow her. it would be best if they began immediantly, the sooner the better she could get her sister back from the angels before the war..

Micah stared at the demon for a minute when she clicked her tongue, trying to figure out if she were being serious or not. He focused back at what he was creating shortly after. He didn't care either way. He'd never cared about love, or silly crushes, or whether someone looked cute or not. His sister's did, but not him. There had once been a time when he hoped he would one day find love, but he had shut the thought down after his parents told him about the arranged marriage. His hands and the light froze when the demon asked, acting a little childish, about the name of his fiance. "Her name...?" For just a second, he thought he'd forgotten it and then the name came back to him. He steeled his expressions and began adding to finishing touches to his creation. "Her name is Jannah, but it doesn't matter." Princess Jannah had nothing to do with the situation this demon was in.

He hadn't really been expecting any other useful information from the demon, but she had given him enough to report to his parents for now. He was tired too, despite how early in the day it was. He finished what he was creating and let it drop in his hands. He quickly surveyed his work. He'd created a necklace with a golden chain and a simple crystal shaped pendant. He held it out to the demon. "Will you put this on?" He asked, knowing she'd get upset if he ordered her to do it. "It will keep you from using your powers or escaping." He had also made sure to enchant it so only he or one of his family members could take it off once she put it on, but he decided to allow her to figure that out for herself. "I'll need you to wear it, so I can take you to a nicer room in the castle. And I know this doesn't sound ideal, but it will be similar to how you are now, just in better living conditions."

Echo Rigel

Don't worry about the darkness in my soul.
It ignites me like an embered coal.

Silently, Echo followed the queen when she began to walk away. He walked slightly at a distance, but close enough that she could speak to him if she wanted.

[Azura ~~]

[ Francesca
Demonessia ]

Francesca's smile slightly faltered as he looked at her as he tried to remember for a moment. She thought that he wouldn't answer her, but her head shot back up as he told her the angels name. Jannah. Francesca smiled, "the girl has a nice name, you like her?" She tilted her head. Francesca herself had been in an arrainged marriage before, but the prince was killed before she could marry him. Unsurprisingly to her, Isabella and Valentina had killed the prince because of how distraught Francesca was about the marriage. Francesca giggled, "y'know, I was in one myself. Arrainge marriage I mean-
Francesca sat up properly. "My little sisters killed the prince on their own accord before I could marry him though" She shrugged slightly.

Francesca was rocking back and forth, not knowing what else to do instead of hum softly. Francesca looked at the necklace as her eyes turned a light blue before turning back to brown. She looked up at him as he held it out to her. "Hmm?" She then looked at the necklace for a minute, before looking at her own slightly hanging choker with a blue gem embedded in it. She then sighed softly, taking off her own choker, she then took the necklace and turned Micah's hand around slightly so she could drop her own necklace in his palm. "You might as well have this one then, we'll swap" She smiled softly, letting her choker fall onto his palm. She leaned back and stared at the necklace for a moment before smiling softly. "You really know how to make jewelry huh? It's pretty" She looked up at him in surprise as he explained his motives. "Hold up- You wanna-" She pointed at him for a moment before she giggled, looking at the necklace. "You trust me that much huh?" She then shrugged, putting on the necklace, her eyes turned blue instantly. "Oh sh-" She gripped her head for a moment before her eyes turned a light gold then back to brown. "Ow that hurt hehe" She mumbled, rubbing the side of her head for a moment.

[ Jesica
Demonessia ]

Jesica sighed softly, as she walked. They had arrived back at the castle in short time. She quickly laid on to the table a map of the three realms. "Any creature in these three realms could've taken her, but for Francesca to just be kidnapped so suddenly isn't normal, especially for her" She muttered.
