The Fate of the world is in our hands (Max and I)

Lucia made an annoyed whimpering noise as she felt his cock hover just outside of her pussy. She could feel the heat coming from it, but even more curiously she was getting very turned on by it's smell..his smell. Henri was fertile, and she wanted to mate with him. Though she along with Evelynn had taken their birth control shots..and they were both infertile for the rest of the year. Not to mention, it was probably a bad idea to mate in such dangerous times, but she couldn't help it. Her instinct was strong. Her attraction to Henri was even stronger. She looked into his eyes as he finally prepared to make the plunge. Oh, this would feel like heaven. She gasped when he grabbed the back of her neck, and for some strange reason Lucia felt...submissive towards him. Her body relaxed and she could only moan at this particular sense of emotion. Henri was weaker than her, but at this very moment..she was his bitch.

Their tongues clashed together once more while he pushed into her, easily penetrating her soaking wet cunt. She growled in delight at the feeling. He was so big, and she hadn't had sex in so long she was almost virgin tight. It might have hurt a little, but to Lucia pain was pleasure. Even when she had nearly broke her legs chasing him down today, and yet when her bones quickly regenerated, it felt good. To be nearly shattered and mended again within minutes. Flesh wounds were different though..that needed time to recover. Nevertheless..when Henri moaned into their kiss, she did the same, but continued to press her lips against his. He was delicious, she couldn't get enough of his lips even while he started to move back and forth out of her.

"Fuck, Henri!" She moaned and then bit his bottom lip as gently as she could, not wanting to injure him with her sharp teeth. If she did, well she'd just give him another dose of her blood. That sounded strangely erotic, actually...but she'd keep that thought to herself. She was fucked up, not many people had her taste. "Ugh, you really are splitting me in half, Henri! I have never been with anyone as big as you, but it's been a while and that's why my pussy is trying to swallow you whole!" She moaned out loud to him. Even though she knew how big Henri was, she didn't realize how big until he told her to look down. Sure enough..he was only halfway inside....and that made her bite her lip in anticipation. She wanted it all in her, she wanted to barely be able to handle him.

"Put it all in. Do it in one thrust. I want to be able to feel my pussy barely being able to handle you. I wanna feel everything you've got, Henri!" She begged him before she went over to suckle on his neck. Hard. Hard enough to leave a mark, anyway. Mnn! This man was absolutely delicious. Evelynn was really missing out, but Lucia didn't share too well so...she had to mark her territory. More than once, as she went to a different spot on his neck to leave another bright red mark. Her pussy continued to drool with her fluids, anticipating him stuffing it all the way inside.
 
"Mmf!" Came a hot grunt against her lips as his cock ravaged her insides. Goddamn, any tighter, and Henri would believe that the girl was a virgin. She squeezed him in all the right ways, her pussy an amazing warmth wrapped firmly around him. The kiss only heightened the sensuality of it all, and the heat pooling around them felt almost soothing during this absolutely carnal act of wanton sex. They were fulfilling their desires now, getting pleasure from one another as their lust burned wild like the coal beneath the tub. And every molecule within his body screamed to take Lucia for his own. Especially as her body yielded only to half of his member, and yet that half inside her felt truly incredible.

It had been quite some time. There was the usual merchant's daughter that batted an eyelash at him, and he would take her to a lovely rooftop where they could look over Metro, their little date ending with him buried in her untouched folds. There was also the cheeky pickpocket who dared try to steal from him. Oh, but he was a softy, he couldn't harm a girl. He could fuck the living hell out of her. So much so that his members in the Thieves' Guild warned him that her wanton moans would attract guards. And finally, there was Lucia. A woman that he found himself enamored by, but also lusting the moment their eyes connected. Lucia would be his bed mate for the entirety of this journey. And he wouldn't lie that past her stiff facade, Evelynn looked like she could be a fun girl in the sack. Perverted thoughts soon dabbled to seeing them both lick and suck upon his meaty shaft. Henri shuddered and used such lust to fuck Lucia even harder still.

Upon looking down, Lucia made his cock twitch in delight. Her pussy was so tight, barely able to take his massive member. And she begged him for more? Not just more, all of it?! Henri could have sworn he fell in love at that moment, figuratively of course. However, before he could react, Lucia latched upon a spot on his neck, making him shudder hotly as she sucked strong enough to create a visible love bite. Marring his skin to show the world that yes, this man was her lover and all her's. It became even more difficult to thrust as Lucia continue to mark his pale skin. Henri just let her, cooing in French, no doubt some vulgar words that involved her pussy and the whole premise that he was going to fuck her raw.

Mmn, but if she wanted it all inside of her, Henri had a better position in mind. So once she began to lift her lips to try and suckle upon his neck once more, Henri leaned in to kiss her again. "Mmn, wait. Wait." He panted out and slipped out of her tight folds. She had been leaking all over his hard cock, and it throbbed, demanding to ram back into her. Henri pulled Lucia off the tub, making out with her hard still while squeezing her heart shaped ass, unable to resist swatting his palm against one cheek. "Turn around. Bend over." He ordered with a grin. Lucia would comply, he knew that. One, she wanted his cock. All of it. And two, she wanted to fuck. For a long time. So once the Demon Hybrid did so, he stared hungrily at her ass that was on display for him. "Shake that sexy ass for me, Lucia." He wanted to see it sway left and right for him, like a bitch in heat. The man groaned, stroking himself a bit before he saddled up and took aim behind the woman.

The head of his cock rested between her lips. But then suddenly, Henri grunted hotly and forced her eager cunt to accept all of his cock, just like she wanted. A hand clasped over her's in the sudden rush of pleasure, pre-cum coating her walls from such amazing shock. "Oh fuck, your pussy feels amazing!" He was losing it. Not even giving her a moment to adjust, Henri just started fucking Lucia with wild abandon. He made sure that he would alternate between ramming in half of his girth in for more speed, but then he would occasionally tease her by pulling all the way out, head and shaft, and then viciously slamming back into her with his entirety. All the while, Henri moaned like a mad man, using her body to sate his lust and needs. Oh, but Lucia didn't seem to be losing out at all.
 
Even though she was slightly confused when he pulled her off the tub, she was too lost in his kiss. She winced softly as he smacked her ass, a soft moan leaving her lips. This man knew how to touch her, and it felt great. Maybe when she had her human body, she wouldn't really like being so rough. But right now, she felt like she could do anything. Take anything. Especially now when she found the strangest things pleasurable. A small grunt of frustration and impatience left Lucia's lips as she moved to switch positions in a hurried manner. She wiggled her ass, only because her slick, wet pussy was in need of his cock. Otherwise she would have been a lot less friendly about the request.

Finally though, she got her desire and once again her and Henri were united. She arched her back and cried out so loud that the entire Metro may have been able to hear it. "Ohh fuck, you're so big Henri! Oh god yes!" She moaned out loud as he started moving his hips without any form of hesitation. She wasn't used to his size but she found the short hiss of pain to feel even better. He was the only man who had ever hit her so deep inside, so deep that she felt like if he went in any further he'd hit her cervix. That just excited her even more though. She could feel herself tighten around him, her warm, wet hole barely able to handle the thickness of his shaft. Barely.

Though it wasn't just the size she had to worry about. He was thrusting into her with such lust and desire that it was making her entire body jerk forward, and he only pulled her back with his thrusts. Her heavy breasts were wildly swaying back and forth each time he slammed inside of her hungry, drooling wet cunt. "Shit! Shit!" She cried out as her fingers dug into the side of the bathtub, the only thing that was keeping her from falling to the floor at this point. It felt so fucking good. She didn't remember sex feeling this good before. The way he alternated his speed and roughness just mixed things up. Sometimes he would pull out altogether and she'd cry out and shake her ass again like a bitch in heat for him to go back inside of her.

All the while they were enjoying their loud, passionate love making...Evelynn tried to tone it out as best she could but..there really wasn't much she could distract herself with. Maybe she'd go out on a walk. This was...disgusting but that wasn't the only thing that bothered her. She was finding herself getting a little frustrated herself. Sadly enough...she was still a human with her own sexual needs and being so close to them while they were doing it was making her wish she had someone to do it with herself. But...she could never love anyone like she had loved her first...even if Henri made her blush a little at times. Something like this though...she'd have to make sure she wouldn't get attracted to him. She got up from her seat and then left the house to take a stroll in the dead of night. They'd probably be at it for a while.
 
God almighty, it felt fucking fantastic in this woman's pussy. Lucia was the most energetic lover he had been with. And oddly, there wasn't anyone that crossed his mind for after. Henri was a bit of a playboy in his past, loving to jump from woman to woman and brag upon his various sexual escapades. He would love to regale comrades within the Thieves Guild about the blonde down the way, or the fiery red head who was a freak in the sack. All he could think about now was how the next woman Henri would take would be the same woman that he was drilling himself into right now. And as he watched her wag her ass at him before, it only made him hunger for Lucia more and more and more! Mmf, and the way she screamed...!

"You like this big cock in your pussy, Lucia? Hm?" Henri groaned out to her between his panting while pumping into her body again and again. Lucia already made it clear that she wanted all of him, so he didn't hold back. Every single thrust was complete with his cock completely buried inside her, their hips meeting with a lewd clap as the warm air surrounded them, making their bodies glisten with a fine sheen of sweat. It made her look all the more gorgeous and hot. "Mmn! That's right. Moan for me like a little whore. I'm going to stuff this cunt full of cock until I'm satisfied!" He teased with his dirty talk. The man felt so sex-deprived. Fucking Lucia was a dream come true ever since he saw her naked upper half. Which only reminded him of those swinging, large tits of her's. He wanted to cope a feel while fucking this woman senseless.

So he did just that. Henri's hands snuck to her front from their home upon her hips. She'd feel his palms smash against her hardened nipples, and his fingers eagerly grasped and groped her chest with vigor. Meanwhile, his own hips powered away like a machine set to overdrive, and he could hear the lewd wet sounds of their coupling coming together. "God fucking damn it...!" The man moaned. He was vulgar, swearing up and down but all in Lucia's favor as her body brought upon him great pleasure that he could only dream about. Already Henri looked forward to many nights with the woman. Though, doing so around Evelynn might be a bit awkward or difficult at first.

How odd that she crossed his mind, but for a moment, he couldn't help but wonder how Evelynn would feel wrapped around him. A lewd, even more devious thought to think of another woman while fucking one. Was she a wild animal like Lucia was? Or was perhaps Evelynn more tame? It simply pleased him to think of Evelynn in the act with him. It was curiously pleasing to think of Evelynn avoiding his eyes as she moaned softly. He humorously pictured her telling him to just hurry up and finish, and yet her body responded so positively to him. Mmn, that definitely sounded like Evelynn to him. A part of him truly, deeply wanted to be intimate with her as well. But another part, well...

Henri let loose a low groan as he felt his body tremor with pleasure, a telltale sign of his impending orgasm. "Mmn, fuck..." Should he tell her? Fuck, he was too long gone right now and couldn't think. The hands upon her breasts held on to her firmly, giving a very pleasing squeeze to those lovely orbs upon her chest as he pulled her into each vicious slam of his hips as his cock began to throb dangerously. "It's been so fucking long, this feel so good, Lucia!" God he didn't want to stop, but already he wanted to cum. Mmn, but maybe he could show her why women commented on his vitality. For now though, he just increased his already feverish fucking pace, listening to the rhythm of her sexy ass clapping against his abdominals echo even faster against the walls.
 
All the dirty talking was just making Lucia moan more, incoherently. Her mind was clouded, she couldn't think right. All she could do was savor the pleasure of him pounding into her over and over. It was amazing, it made her drool even as she panted and squealed in pleasure. "Y-yeah! Yeah, yeah, fuck yea!" She responded to him. She heard the door open and close, but it didn't click in her mind. She wasn't paying attention to anyone other than the man who was fucking the shit out of her. She wished she had enough experience to know whether or not the man she slept with just wasn't good, or if Henri was some sort of sex God...either way she wasn't complaining.

When he grabbed her tits, they too were covered in a thin line of perspiration. The bath made the room hot and steamy, so she was damp anyway. In fact, her hair seemed to react to the moisture in the air, getting more wild and puffy. Though it was a detail that wouldn't outright be noticed by two people fucking as hard as they were. She whimpered when he started playing with them, her pussy tightening briefly in reaction to the new sensation. Lucia had never really had her boobs played with, curious enough. At least not so roughly like this, but it felt good. Fitting compared to how her pussy was being treated right now.

Her throat was getting scratchy as she continued to let loose many noises that expressed just how good she was making the vagabond feel. She had to keep quiet for a moment just to give her voice box a rest. Though the more she kept quiet, the more she noticed she was close to her orgasm. "Fuck! Henri, don't stop! Harder! I'm going to cum!" She announced to him. Though she had no idea that he was close, too. Her legs were tingling and throbbing with pleasure, and she gritted her teeth as it finally took hold of her body. It was...so much better. She grinned and shuddered and her eye lids fluttered as her eyes rolled to the back of her head. "Oh fuck yeah..." She moaned as her entire body relaxed. She had gripped him so tight that he could barely move.

"Mnnn.." Lucia continued as she rested her face on the tub. Henri wasn't done but..she was almost checked out completely. Tired. Oh, that just felt so good. Her mind was completely numb and that was the only thought that played through her head.

She wasn't sure if she could take a bath, at least not by herself right now.
 
Lucia's voice sounded like a naughty girl turned succubus. She was definitely the wild child compared to Evelynn, and that shined clear as day right now as their hips slapped against one another. The warmth in the room still persisted, and he humorously thought to himself that after getting so dirty together, these two could just flop into the tub and enjoy a nice soak. "Oh, fuck yes..." Henri growled out favorably upon the woman's words, also too completely unaware of the door opening and then closing as Evelynn went outside. The man was far gone anyway. Any coherent thought about being polite and respectful to their other companion that was previously waiting outside was out the window. Along with their moans and groans that probably woke up several scurrying rats within the Metro.

Her body really was trying to do all it could to squeeze the life out of him, her tunnel massaging the rigid member that plowed in and out of her body. Henri bit his lip and let out a throaty groan of pure delight. "Fuck, this pussy is tight." Came a lustful grunt as he had to slow down the moment her body tightened up more and more around him. And of course, the heated demands of Lucia. Her voice called out what she wanted. She wanted him harder. Faster. To bring her to that wonderful euphoria that would mark the end of their sexual act. "That's it, cum for me, baby." He gasped out through pants. "I want to feel you cum all over my cock, Lucia. Fucking cum for me...!" Thrust after thrust, the man was starting to pick up the pace as she requested. His hips were relentless, and he showed her no mercy. Lucia wanted an orgasm? She was going to get the best orgasm of her life to date then.

Suddenly, her body tensed up tightly, forcing the man to either slow or- Oh hell no, this woman got really tight! "Mmn!" But goddamn did it feel good. It drew him closer to the edge, but thanks to the pause, it curved off the impending ending. Yes, he could give her a nice little short pounding after she came too. And then he'd reach his own end. Henri grinned as he leaned over a bit when she rested forward, her coos and moan a badge of honor to the man. "Bonne fille..." Henri spoke as he began pistoning once more, but his pace was rapidly increasing, now focused on his own release. "Ah, mmn, that means good girl!" Henri groaned loudly. Lucia's pussy was the absolute best. He usually lasted a bit longer than this after a short break, but fuck!

It was his turn to slam deep inside Lucia's core and go rigid. His hands suddenly went from those magnificent breasts to the edge of the tub, clawing into it tightly as spurt after spurt of warm cum entered her body. "Ungh, fuck!!!" Henri let loose a deep roar of pleasure, and Lucia could tell now that he was rather backed up. The load he gave her was more than simply large, and every jerk of his cock seemed to let loose a full blast. To Henri, it was like a blissful eternity before he finally ended, feeling her inner tunnel filled with warm semen. "Fucking hell..." Henri's French accent really became thick whenever he was cursing. Or fucking the woman beneath him into oblivion. Or moaning like a crazed animal rutting its mate. Well, one could get the idea. Teasingly, Henri pulled out slowly, inch by grueling inch. It was torture for him too. So much so that the moment he popped out with a lewd squelch, a small squirt of cum covered her right ass cheek. Henri chuckled breathlessly.

"Time to get clean." Henri sighed out, helping Lucia up, just in case those knees of her's buckled from such a mind-numbing orgasm. He slipped inside with her, but once they had both their feet in, Henri grinned playfully and pulled her further in to a seat against the back edge of the tub. He took the lead, and Lucia would find her back pressed against his chest while sitting up his lap, semi-erect member playfully teasing her thigh. But most important was how he turned her head and gave the Demon Hybrid a deep, breathless kiss. "Mmmn, Lucia..." He sighed out, tasting her lips and tongue one last time before allowing them both a chance to breathe. The most pleased smile filled his lips as he leaned back a bit. "That was the best. The absolute best."
 
It was nice to be called a good girl, even when it was in french. Lucia was having a hard time staying up, but she wanted to feel Henri cum in her too. And it didn't take long either. She continued to pant and then suddenly, she felt his body go stiff and his hands leave her heavy breasts. Then...his cock twitched and she immediately felt the first spurt of semen inside of her. She couldn't explain it, but her body..felt like it was absorbing it. It felt almost as good as the orgasm she just had. "Ahh! Henri..." She squeaked, though his seed kept coming. Oh more..it was almost nourishing her. She wasn't sure what was happening but she knew that her times in the past were nothing like this. Was it her DNA that was doing this?

Nevertheless, as vitalizing as his semen was inside of her, she still felt exhausted. She whimpered as he slowly removed himself from her, and she just stayed there for a moment, her chest heaving. But then she felt him helping her into the tub, and once they were settled in, Lucia sighed heavily and at first was shoveling the water onto her face, as if to wake herself up. But then he pulled her back, and gave her a really, really hot, passionate kiss. "Mnnn.." Her eyes closed half way as she let their tongues mingle with each other for just a moment. Then she pulled herself back and let her head rest on his shoulder. "Yes. I've never felt anything like that. I'm glad we did it, though Evelynn's probably going to have a stick up her ass about it."

Oh well. What was that expression? Snoozers were losers? Or was it, You snooze, you lose? Whatever, next time she'd try to be quieter. She didn't want to rub it in her face too much. "Anyways, we'll be a little bit more considerate of her if she's sleeping next to us, yeah?" She grinned and then sunk all the way into the water, closing her eyes and sitting in his bare lap as her hair splayed out over his lower half like a curtain. She stayed there for a moment, completely still. But she had to come up for air sometime, and the eventually did. It was odd to see her hair straight, and somewhat tame now. She had a more regal look to her as her blue eyes met with his briefly. She was about to open her mouth before she heard gunshots. Not just any though...those came from Evelynn. She could tell because of the special type of gun she used.

"Bath time is over. Evelynn is in danger!" Lucia told him as she hauled herself out of the bath. Oh damn, she was tired and wanted to sleep but fuck. Did she go out while they were doing it? She was that jealous? Despite here soaking wet body she ran into the other room and through on her clothes. She waited for Henri to join her and when he did, she led him towards the sound of where the shots had fired. She could also pick up Evelynn's scent.

She just wanted a walk to clear her head..but of course instead she got a scout who recognized the second gun on her belt. It was a low level demon...easy enough to take care of. But it just convinced her that this thing was dangerous and it may have needed to be hidden better. Otherwise she'd probably face more of these low level assassins. There were probably more of them too...after all if the orcs knew it was here...then other demons probably knew as well. They'd have to leave early tomorrow so they wouldn't get targeted.
 
The afterglow of their orgasms was wonderful and pleasant. Henri could feel his tired muscles starting to relax. His body just entirely became mush within the still warm waters as they shared their kiss together. He was a sucker for making out a bit after some steamy sex, and while a bath felt amazing, falling back into a nice comfy bed would have been nice as well. Though he wasn't complaining necessarily. "Evelynn, hm? I can just imagine her yelling at us with few choice words." Henri chuckled for the moment before gazing at the water a little. It was odd, there was a small pang of guilt passing over his mind. Even though he didn't know Evelynn that well, he still felt like he was being a bit of an ass to her. Hell, they just met. Still, perhaps Henri would have to chat with her about this. After all, it was clear that both Lucia and himself were very much attracted to one another. They both wanted it to happen again, which only brought a perky smile to his lips. "Oh ho, Madame Lucia, you're quite adventurous, aren't you? Sounds fair, though tell that your little tight pussy. I could hear it clearly." He shot back with a playful grin.

Seeing her come back up from the water, the Vagabond opted to just run water through his hair himself, taking it ease. In fact, he just loved soaking in here. It felt so amazing along his muscles. Eyes settled upon her face though once she came up, and Henri cooed with admiration. That was a nice look for her, even if it didn't suit her personality. "Gorg-" Gunshots? After what happened today, and considering it was the Metro, that didn't sound out of the ordinary. What tipped him that this wasn't just the usual criminal brawl though was what Lucia said. That was Evelynn? Henri took a moment to process it all, but he was quickly doing the same thing. He made his way out of the tub and quickly grabbed the clothes discarded upon the ground. Drying would have to happen while they ran. Right now, Evelynn was in trouble!

He was just glad that Lucia led them straight to her, and the moment they got there, Henri slid beside her. A hand came to her arm automatically as he looked into her eyes. "Hey, what happened?" He asked her as the gunshots seemed to have stirred up the area a bit. Thankfully, it was a more of a living area, though still a part of the slums. People were murmuring and asking questions, trying to figure out what was going on. It didn't take long until Metro Police came by and started their way towards the three. "Officers, do we still have a demon threat that hasn't been taken care of?" He asked after the police seemed to get the story from Evelynn. Though Henri's question did stir up some concern, and many people were beginning to chatter.

"Everyone, calm down. This is just a simple little rat that squeezed on boy, nothing more." One of the policemen spoke, looking over at Evelynn. "You're lucky you know your way around a gun, ma'am. We'll increase security, but exercise caution." It wasn't the best answer, Henri thought, as the Metro Police took their leave and ushered everyone back in, including the two girls and the Vagabond. Well, they could go back to their current home for the night, but Henri still had his eyes peeled.

"A single demon? Stirring up trouble all by his lonesome? I don't buy that." He whispered to them as they walked back. He looked to Evelynn, asking her what really happened. Considering their latest bout with the orcs, this couldn't be a coincidence. It just couldn't.
 
Lucia was ready to tear shit up, her hand on the hilt of that large sword she was carrying. Though when it was just Evelynn standing there, she relaxed it and saw the dead demon at her feet. They didn't even need to help her, but it was better safe than sorry. She seemed out of it despite the growing crowd around her. "How did I miss the first two times?" She mumbled under her breath, more angry about losing three bullets than being attacked out of no where. Though when Henri grabbed him, her muscles tensed as if she were expecting another fight. But seeing his red eyes, she realized who he was and relaxed. "Demon in disguise thought he could try to assassinate me. Some types of demons can do that. Look like humans." She told him absentmindedly as she stared down at its corpse.

A charm...some demons had charms that limited their powers and made them look human. She wasn't sure what the reason for the existence of these charms, other than maybe infiltrating a human defense force. This was why settlements never accepted new humans into their protection, in fear of inviting a demon within their base. The good news was, demons with these trinkets that came in many forms of jewelry or cuffs, also become weaker when they are equipped with such charms. This one removed it's limiter and still failed to hurt her but...she would keep this knowledge to herself. It's not like the charms were used much anyway. Most demons were too proud to limit their power only to look like a human.

The police soon joined them, and she pretty much told them the same thing. Henri must have done an excellent job hiding his identity when he stole things, because they didn't seem to recognize him at all. Lucia on the other hand...well it seemed like one of them recognized her even with her sopping, straight red hair. She shrugged at the officer who commented on her being lucky enough to know how to use a gun. She knew they didn't mean anything by it, but luck had nothing to do with it. When they were told to go inside, she sunk her hands in her pocket as she thought of the possibility of being watched. A scout would have fled. That one attacked her. Maybe she had been underestimated.

"I don't buy it either." Evelynn simply said as they walked back. "I feel like there was more to it than just that. It wanted the artifact, but it was attacking alone. I don't understand it, but demons don't make sense sometimes. What's clear is that we can't stay in one spot too long. We might very well be being watched. Once we get rest, we need to leave right away or we'll put more people in danger."

"Yeah, well we should also not go off alone anymore, Eve. You're still injured." Lucia pointed out, glancing at her with a worried look on her face. Evelynn scoffed and then looked away from the both of them. She was slightly still annoyed for what they had done, but...she would let it go for now.
 
A demon in disguise? Not only that, but a scout who thought he could get lucky and snuff her out? This was huge news. It only seemed recent that demon activity began to climb around the Metro and just outside of it. Henri recalled that before Evelynn and Lucia came, trade had begun to decline in correlation with more demon appearances. That rose concerns with money, but the Vagabond saw more so an issue with, well, demons. Right outside the door. So what exactly was causing this influx of demons? Now that they had some sort of relic that they seemed to be interested in, it became fairly obvious what the reason was. This was something much more important than a simple job that paid him even bigger money. Now, it felt like their lives were at stake.

Evelynn too didn't want to just toss it off. She had a mission, and it seemed that the revolver she had on her person was related to that mission somehow. Lucia was on board as well, and so long as Henri drew breath, he would be too. They were adorable, and he wanted to be around their company. He didn't want to be alone either. There was a physical bonding with Lucia, and despite it being lust driven, there was a desire to be with her in him as well. As for Evelynn, they didn't truly bond, but he felt something there. Henri wanted to see to it that she met her goal, no matter how lofty it may be. So she would always have his support.

Henri nodded to Evelyn's statement. It would be best to find a new place to go after this. Even if the previous Thieves' Guild was tucked away in Metro fairly well, demons knew how to find those trying to hide. "Even if they don't make sense, they're not stupid either. And I'm not too worried about other people right now, Madame Evelynn." He sighed out, walking with them back home. A hand cupped his chin and rubbed gently. "You two are definitely going to be prime targets. I know we took care of the orcs, but who knows if word got back to... whoever is coming next? We should be prepared, but yes, we shouldn't stick around." They could head to the Eastern Human Settlement. Or, maybe perhaps head south. There was supposedly another human settlement that was quite religious, but rumors from traders told of a bit of an internal strife going on. But it was large. They could make due there.

Though, the Vagabond was pulled from his thoughts as Lucia commented about Evelynn's injury. She was right. Evelynn still had that bleeding wound upon her head. With a bit of an annoyed sigh that she kept it open like that, he wrapped an arm around the Bio-Soldier and hugged her against his side. Despite the close contact and scolding tone, Henri's words were very caring. "Stop making your little sister worry about you so much, Madame Evelynn. Come on, if you're not going to take her blood, at the very least let me wrap it for you. I won't take a no." He gazed down at her sternly, speaking in French. "(You're making me worry too.)"

They made it back to the hideout, and with Evelynn in tow, he pulled her to a seat and sat her down. Immediately, the man went to a cupboard and began pulling out a first aid kit. "Show me the wound." He asked of her, waiting until she complied and moved any of her hair that might have been in the way. From there, he took a disinfectant and clean cloth, dampening it with the chemicals before warning her of the sting. Though, he quickly just applied it. Bracing for the pain would just make it hurt worse. "There, quick and easy. Now hold still." He wasn't going to take any lip from her. A bandage roll was undone for a small length, enough to wrap around her head a couple of times and feel secure, yet not tight. And then to top it all off, Henri pulled a small white flower a tucked it into the bandage, smiling at her.

"It's a nice look for you. Makes you seem less grumpy." Henri teased, sticking his tongue out at her.
 
Evelynn probably should have drank her blood but..she really couldn't bring herself too. It was disturbing and unless she was bleeding out, she'd heal the old fashion way. She wasn't really used to people worrying for her, and even though Lucia didn't say it like Henri did, she could see it in the red heads eyes. It was odd how they had all bonded, barely knowing each other for more than a day or two. She found it...soothing though. The biggest part of her journey was actually the fear of being alone..and dying alone. That was one of her her reasons...more or less....for breaking Lucia out and letting her roam free. Though she had prepared herself for the worst, and...she needed to prepare Henri for that too. First though...she sat there with an bemused expression, letting Henri patch her up.

The flower on her bandage was a nice touch...but unnecessary. Still, she couldn't help but smile at him, glancing to Lucia who had been unusually quiet the whole entire time. "Have you two....ever noticed that you look alike?" She commented, bringing Evelynn's attention straight to her. She did a double take to Henri...but she..didn't really see it. His facial structure though..it was familiar. She had always felt she had seen him from somewhere, but...she didn't think she looked like him other than their blonde hair color. "Didn't notice till now because your eye color is different, but...now that I think about it...you have a similar scent too."

"Your eyes and nose must be going bad then, Lucia. Henri and I don't look alike in the least." Evelynn told her, crossing her legs and folding her arms. Though Lucia was still staring, her eyes going back and forth between them. "Maybe it's because we're both French or something?"
 
That smile she gave him brought his own lips to perk up on both ends. "See? Smile like that and I'll think more that you're not going to hit me just for being myself." Oh the jokes this man could come up with. He had snickered again until Lucia began to make note of something. Specifically, some sort of resemblance between both Evelynn and himself. Henri raised an eyebrow in response. "What're you talking about?" He asked curious, gazing to Evelynn for a moment. The Vagabond even leaned in to examine her closely. There hair was definitely the same color. Like, exactly the same color. But, that could happen to any two people on this planet. Or, what remained of the planet. Probably not many people, really. But this was such a common occurrence in the past that it was hardly room for evidence. So what if their hairs were the same color?

Their eyes were different too, but since she was a Bio-Soldier, well, who knows if the process might have altered her eyes a bit. The were a rather luminescent green, almost like green radiating sludge. Hardly a fitting simile to describe her eyes, and especially coming from a wordsmith such as the illustrious and ever illusive Vagabond. Well, no matter. But, hey, Lucia included their scents too. Henri was lost on that one, but he wasn't sure if he bought it. After all, after a bout of sex, couldn't he argue that both Lucia and he had the same scent? Or more so, intermingled, but if thick enough! Bah, why was it even important about their appearances? "Mmn, if you're saying I smell like women's conditioner, then I might be a little offended... though, that stuff is best for my hair." He joked, brushing a row of fingers through his blond locks.

Waving them off a bit, Henri sighed lightly, though it was followed by a yawn. The day was packed with way too much excitement, and he needed some good old R&R. "Could be, though there could be another French person that you're related to and not me. I don't quite recall any family, it's a bit of a blur. I think something happened when I was a really young lad. Could have been traumatic enough as well to put up some walls in my head." He mused, rubbing his chin in thought. The hair there was starting to grow, making his pale skin seem a bit dirty with that five o'clock shadow. "But, you two should remember we need to get out of here in the morning. I'm going to head to bed. Evelynn, there was still a lot of coal in that bathroom, so the water is more than likely still warm."
 
Lucia knew she wasn't crazy, and the way Evelynn was blowing her off made her upset. "...Uhuh. Well, you guys might not see it but I do." She wasn't sure where she was going with this. It's not like Evelynn wouldn't know if she had a little brother. Lucia's eyebrows furrowed. Henri didn't remember much about his passed? No wonder he didn't seem to have any family now.

"Actually, before you go to sleep, I need to talk to you, Henri." Evelynn took him forcefully by the hand and led him down the hall towards the bath. Lucia just cocked her head to the side. What was she up to? Did she want to take a bath with him too?

Evelynn just wanted to kill two birds with one stone. She needed to have an important talk with him but she also needed to bathe. "Turn around, don't peek at me. This is something very important." She told him, and then waited for him to do so. When he did, she started undressing herself. It was..a little dirty but she trusted him not to look. She sighed softly before finding the courage continue. "(It's about Lucia. I am speaking French because I'm not sure if she knows this about herself or not but...If you want to know why I had to set her free it was because she did something very reckless. She forged her compatibility papers even though she wasn't even ten percent compatible with the DNA that was implanted into her.)"

The bio soldier finished taking off her clothes, and she turned her back to climb into the tub. It was warm still, but she could only imagine what was in this water considering what they were doing before. "(I don't want to sound too cold. But try not to get attached to her Henri. Eventually her humanity will be eaten away. She'll either start falling apart, or she'll become a full fledged demon. Her chance of surviving as her human self is just as high as her compatibility rate...seven percent. I don't know when. I don't know how. But she is...going to die from either my hand or from the genes that exist in her body)."
 
About to turn his head, Henri suddenly was yanked in the direction of the bathroom. "Whoa, hey, slow down." This was extremely suddenly, but knowing a woman like Evelynn, this was definitely not the same thing that Lucia got out of him. Hell might have to freeze over first before Henri could get in the tub or sack with the bio-soldier who shared the same hair color with him.

"Okay," He sighed, stepping into the bathroom and closing the door behind him. "What is-" Turn around? At least let him finish his sentence. Oddly enough, Henri simply nodded and hummed to himself lightly while turning around. Something important, hm? Well, it was a bit hard to imagine something important when she was busy taking a bath right behind him. But, he'd hear her out. Though, the moment he caught her French accent coming out, Henri straightened up. Oddly, it seemed they seemed to establish a kind of code between them for the moment. They could speak to one another, masking their subjects and topics. It was working for now, they just needed to make sure that no one else spoke French around them.

"(She forged papers?)" Now, Henri was off the scene with bio-soldiers and Demon Hybrids, however he was well aware of a certain requirement that they needed to meet, that being the need for compatible DNA. He had heard rumors and potential horror stories. But, right now, a bio-solider like Evelynn was giving hard facts. So, Henri listened attentively, already clicking in his mind that Lucia forged her papers and received the demon DNA implanted in her illegally. That at least meant there were two criminals in the group.

But all joking was put aside as he heard Evelynn slip into the waters of the tub... and then state her next words firmly. "(Evelynn!)" He turned to look at her, not caring if she was angry or embarrassed, because for once, Henri glared at her. "(What the hell, you'll just give up on her?! Just like that because of numbers?!)" For some reason, it didn't sound like Henri was defending Lucia 100%. Yes, he cared about her. Was it love? Hard to say. But it was like he was scolding Evelynn rather passionately. "(You can talk like that, punch everything in, and say it's possible. But seven percent isn't nothing. You're damn right it's small, but that's something.)" Demon Hybrids and bio-soldiers were vital roles within the world today, the very force that protected the remaining human race, but if there was one weapon that Henri had that Evelynn wasn't showing right now, that was hope and determination.

Or perhaps foolishness and denial. For now though, Henri sighed and looked down, leaning against the door with his arms crossed. "(... Thank you for telling me, nonetheless.)" It was important. Just he didn't want Lucia to die. He didn't want either of them to die.
 
She didn't get angry at him for turning around to look at her. she was already under water, and he wouldn't be able to see much other than her face that was filled with surprise. She didn't expect him to yell at her. The way she spoke...it was absolute. Only because Evelynn stated the cold, hard facts. She didn't let her emotion get in the way of anything, and with such a low survival percentage, to her it might has well have been zero. She didn't speak for a moment, watching as Henri turned away. She knew this would have been hard to hear, especially because of what happened today with all his friends being slaughtered. But perhaps that's why she felt the need to tell him. "(Henri, I'm not saying we should give up on her. There may be someway to save her, and depending on how long she lasts, we might be able to discover what it is. But any day, she could fall apart. I don't know why she wanted to become a Hybrid with those chances of survival. I don't even know how she became one in the first place...usually anyone that is under seventy percent compatibility rate dies in the process. I think she's just..surviving on her own will power.)"

Evelynn started to bathe herself while she spoke, trying to think of something to make him feel better but failing. There was also the matter at what happened to her today. "(I am sorry for dropping such a large bombshell on you. I truly am, especially on the day where we had to bury your friends. I suppose I'm telling you this so soon because you made love to her tonight. But also...when she defeated that thing today...for a moment she didn't look like herself. Then when she came back to reality she didn't even remember defeating him...so...that worries me. I have been with other Hybrids and none of them have ever done that. Look, I just...I just want you to be prepared. And not get in my way if I have to..put her down.)"

That was cruel. She was speaking of Lucia as if she were some dog, but...perhaps Evelynn was shutting her own emotions down. She had resolved for this before she even met Lucia. Knowing that she was going to die or go berserk. That's...most of the reason why she set her free considering that any day she could die, and she wanted her to see the world before she did. Still...she felt much more upset about this talking to Henri.
 
Maybe Henri was in denial, or maybe he was just trying to get the truth out of his mind. There was absolutely no way that Evelynn could fabricate a lie like this for a joke. Yeah, they had sex, but it didn't feel exactly soul connecting. Passionate yes, but not that far. And maybe it did have to do with him having been alone so much. "(Perhaps she had a very passionate reason. Just like you want to bring the world back into human hands, not demon ones.)" He felt almost completely comfortable around Evelynn bathing, as if they truly had some sort of hidden relationship that Lucia speculated about, talking like this was an everyday occurrence.

Being reminded of their sex, Henri seemed to rub the back of his head. He felt odd about Evelynn make note of it, like he felt embarrassed or something. Anyway, back to Lucia. The Demon Hybrid did have some rather odd behavior. She had a brutish kind of fighting style, but that was a lot more violent, even for demons. "(It's hard to be prepared now. It wasn't the sex, but...)" Henri began, sighing again and biting his lip. "(I don't know how you two did it, but I care about you a lot. Both of you. And I don't want to lose you like I lost my friends today.)"

"(And don't just talk like that about Lucia. Can you honestly look her in the eyes, lost or not, and pull the trigger so easily?)" He asked her, his face twisted with emotions. Could she really? He knew he couldn't, but it saddened him to think about that he or she would have to...
 
Evelynn looked into Henri's eyes, contemplating her answer. She knew what it was. She knew she was capable of doing it. It wasn't that she didn't care about Lucia, it was just...she knew that she'd rather die if it meant not killing either her or Henri. Lucia seemed like that type of person, honestly. She was blunt, crude, and seemingly nonchalant about everything, but..Evelynn knew she cared about them and her fellow humans. Henri was right, she must have had a very good reason. Maybe one day Evelynn would ask her. One day soon, before...something bad happened to her.

"(Do you think Lucia wouldn't want me to put her out of her misery? If we die trying to bring her out of something she probably can't get out of...she'd be stuck like that until someone else puts her out of her misery. Someone who doesn't know anything about who she is..someone who just thinks of her as a monster and nothing more. Do you think she deserves that, Henri? Being hunted and killed like an animal?)" She asked him, her stern gaze locked on his face. This was the difference between a soldier and a civilian...she was ready to make the choice.
 
Henri bit his lip. Goddamn, she was right. Evelynn seemed to be thinking logically, and even if Henri didn't want to imagine the day where it came where they needed to kill Lucia, the blonde-haired woman spoke the truth. "(There's gotta be some way...)" His eyes looked back to Evelynn after some time, pleading her for an answer. Any answer. Even if it was a wild shot, Henri wanted to know that a woman so important to him could survive. "(... Right?)" He asked once more, though at this point, even he knew that Evelynn didn't have anything. At least, not right now.

The Vagabond felt a bit of helplessness consume him for a moment, but as he looked to Evelynn, he rubbed the back of his neck. As much as she spoke about the inevitable herself, there had to be part of her that agreed on trying to save the Demon Hybrid. After all, she wouldn't have saved her in the first place, especially if she knew the risk to begin with. Henri approached her slowly, and even if she was in the tub, naked and soaking wet, Henri's arms reached out and pulled her into a hug. For once, he held a naked woman without the intent to have sex with her. Hell must have frozen over. "Whatever happens, we'll both be ready." Henri spoke normally, squeezing her securely in his arms.
 
Evelynn wasn't really expecting Henri to hug her like that, while she was naked. She couldn't get angry with him either. He didn't seem like he was doing this just to get into her pants at all. No, he genuinely cared about Lucia and was worried. He wanted to share his feelings with her, even if she tried her best to ignore those in order to have this conversation and convey the seriousness of it. She moved her hands from the water and wrapped her arms around him to return the embrace. It was strange..it didn't seem bad. Just a little awkward considering her naked body was pressed to his. "We'll do whatever we can." She assured him before letting him go. "We won't just wait for it to happen, we'll find a way.

Those were her last words, spoken in English. If Lucia was trying to listen to whatever they were saying, she had probably given up upon hearing their French. A longing gaze was on Henri as she admired his features. He really did look like...her father. The eyes didn't match but...yeah. She could see her father in him, which was strange and probably coincidental. But maybe that's why Lucia thought they looked alike, because she knew in some way she resembled her father too. "So..you don't remember much about your childhood or your parents?" A strange topic change, but...she wanted to know.
 
Their embrace felt extremely comfortable, and despite all the tenseness they had during the topic they spoke about, Evelynn would feel him just relax. His shoulders dropped lightly to a more relaxed height, and he just held her. Like this wasn't anything new to him. Like... it was hard to describe. Henri's arms slipped a little tighter around her, his hand gently squeezing her shoulder affectionately before they were eventually pulled apart. "Sounds good." He whispered, giving her a genuine smile now as they were inches apart.

Strangely, he was stuck looking back at Evelynn now as well. Lucia might not have been silly after all. He felt like he was looking at someone familiar. Very familiar. But, Henri couldn't remember anything very clear. There was a flash of a woman that looked like Evelynn, having the same color of his eyes. It was gone just as quickly as it had come in his mind. "No, no." He briefly rubbed his temple from the streak of pain that passed, doing his best to not show it. "Well, not a lot, to be frank. I remember that it was before the demons came that I go separated. I think I went with my mother. But I can't recall anything now." Henri though looked like he was honestly trying, gazing off into space with a focused expression. "I've always wanted to remember though. It's scary... not knowing."
 
"I never knew my mother...so I can half see where you are coming from." Truthfully she never thought about it too much. She had been told her mother passed away a long time ago, but since she never met her she never felt sad about it. Though, there were times where she was jealous of other kids having mothers while she only had a busy father who worked in the military. "Come to think of it, I never really got to know my father either. Just his work, and his expectations of me. So even though he was there, I still felt like he was a stranger." She said thoughtfully.

She wondered what her father was doing now? No doubt he was furious with her for what she had done. Evelynn not only left with some of the finest technology that humankind had to offer, but she had broken out an extremely dangerous and unstable Hybrid as well. He probably would have felt shame for being the father of someone like that, but she didn't care. She was tired of living in a cage, fighting just for a small select few who wanted to hide until the demons eventually figure out how to kill them.

"Anyways, maybe one day you'll remember." She said as she moved away from him, covering her breasts in case he could see through the steamy water. she was almost done but didn't want to get out until he left.
 
Hearing this about Evelynn made him rather curious to learn more, but he felt a connection with her now that they spoke about their parents. They shared a common curse, it seemed. Though Evelynn had her father, and he his mother. Lucia's theory seemed rather spot on the more and more the two talked, but Henri wasn't even thinking about that right now. "It must have been difficult. It's like you didn't have a parent at all. My mother, well, I think she was busy too. Maybe we were poor." That could explain why he took to a life of crime. For as long as he could remember, he had been known as the Vagabond for so very long. Almost like it was all his life was about.

But he did recall that his mother did pass away. Illness? Just not coming back one day? It was hard to say when too, Henri truly hating how bad his memory was when in actuality, the man just hated recalling the bad times of his life so much. Mental walls were put up in his subconscious, barring him from experiencing the harsh reality of what had happened to him. The real reason why he couldn't remember something here and there. "Maybe. Maybe not." He told her, though he smiled at her as she moved away. "Either or, I'd like to make better memories with you. And Lucia."

Based off her body language, it was clear that she was waiting for him to leave. Chuckling at Evelynn, Henri moved to stand and went to the door. He stopped though and grabbed her a towel, gently setting it upon the tub's edge away from the water. "Thank you, Evelynn. For everything we talked about. I'm glad you're around." He nodded and then slipped slowly out of the bathroom, shutting the door behind him.
 
She didn't know what it was like to not have a memory of her childhood, but she could only imagine how lonely Henri must have felt not remembering his mother. "Don't thank me...just talked about what we needed to talk about." Evelynn said before she waved him out the door. Once he was gone, she sighed and then got out of the tub, grabbing a nearby towel and drying herself off. By the time Henri got back to Lucia, she was already asleep and only in her shirt and underwear. She seemed tuckered out thanks to everything that happened today. Henri was probably what took the most out of her though. She looked much less intimidating when she wasn't awake. Almost like a normal human girl.

Evelynn joined them not too long afterwards. She pulled some blankets over her and a make shift pillow. The ground was hard but she didn't care. She closed her eyes and then tried to sleep as best she could, though sometimes that was hard. She was thinking about things. All kinds of things. The weapon they had that demons so desperately wanted. Lucia's slightly chaotic and unstable nature. Then there was Henri, someone who looked familiar but she couldn't place her finger on it. Sometimes her brain couldn't shut off for long enough for her to drift off into sleep. She did eventually, however.

Evelynn planned on getting up at the crack of dawn and leaving...but she was actually the last one awake by the time morning came. It was something that surprised Lucia.
 
A heavy sigh escaped his lips as he laid eyes upon Lucia. The girl was fast asleep, and she looked almost innocent. Like the condition the world was in didn't bother her at all right now. And, it shouldn't. He briefly recalled the warnings Evelynn gave him. The fears they both had that would come at any moment. Randomly. It could be tomorrow. The next day. Never? Maybe years? That's how this Demon Hybrid incompatibility thing sounded like. Henri gently brushed a strand of hair from Lucia's face, momentarily forgetting her simple sleepwear. Evelynn soon came out.

The guild had been ransacked and pretty much demolished. Even his desk was broken, and it seemed ready to split in half. So the only option was the ground. And how Lucia could just fall asleep on it, even if she was tired, was beyond him. He had opted to take a chair that sat away from the girls, resting beside the door frame. Though he himself had a bit of a hard time sleeping. In fact, he seemed to have stayed up. So, it would be no surprise to see some slight bags under his eyes. It seemed that whenever the man came close to even reaching peaceful slumber, a vivid dream jarred him awake. Henri soon gave up ever several failed attempts.

Of course, that made him the first one up (since he technically never slept). The Vagabond had gotten some fresh fruit that morning, and when he returned and saw only Lucia awake, he raised a curious eyebrow. A night of no sleep wasn't new to him. He would manage. "Catch, Madame Lucia." He called out, biting into a piece of apple himself as he knelt down beside Evelynn's face. He munched softly, gazing at her with a tired expression. "Fearless Leader. I hope you do know that today's the day we leave this hell hole. Madame Evelynn~?" Henri's sing song voice was rather dull, and more annoying sounded. Probably something that would drive the woman nuts.
 
"Morning Henri." Lucia said as she pulled on her clothes and got ready for their journey. She had opted to leave Evelynn alone. She was the person that was supposed to tell them what to do, and Lucia didn't want to follow someone too tired to make sound decisions. She caught the fruit and happily took a bite out of it as she watched Henri try to wake up Evelynn. She didn't seem to respond to his soft, musical voice. So Lucia got up and then walked over to them both.

"Henri, you look like shit." She said bluntly before closing her hand and opening it. "Stand back, love muffin. Rest those tired, pretty eyes." She waited for him to move out of her way before grinning. Whenever she got that expression, it was never a good thing. She then wound her fist back and proceeded to hammer it down onto Evelynn, but before she even got close the bio soldier caught her fist and then grabbed her sword in an effortless motion, pressing it against Lucia's throat. Lucia could barely even see her...what the hell? "Not bad for when you're asleep." She commented with a smirk.

"You're a fool. Don't do that again." Evelynn responded as she lowered her sword and then rubbed her eyes.
