<div style="text-align: center">Questor:​</div><br/>Dante just smiled. He knew that Laylah could handle herself, and they didn't know who they were dealing with. "Poor choice." Dante said as he drew his sword. Dante took a stance and with his free hand made a motion for them to come" The lower demon leader charged Dante with three of the others close behind him. Three more went for Laylah. Dante laughed as he engaged their leader and those with him. His sword became a blur as he parried the first attack and turned and the second missed. The third he spun and hit with one of his wings sending him stumbling back and the fourth found his sword slashing across his throat. Now it was his turn to attack and he engaged one of the men and the ring of steel filled the air. The man was no swordsman by no mean. He soon fell to his knees grasping his chest before he fell face forward into the street. "Two down." he grinned as faced the leader and the last of the other three. Now the Lower Demon leader showed fear in his eyes.<br/><br/><br/>Several others moved forward to help their leader but were stopped by arrows hitting the first four. They looked around for the bowmen but only found two panthers launching them selves at them, taking two humans down and ripping their throats out. That was enough for the others. They took off running, leaving their leader and those that fought Laylah behind. Dante laughed again. The two panthers raced after them dragging another two down. "Well now , I guess you are expendable. Your friends have deserted you." Dante attacked and made the leader and the other man back peddle. He toyed with them, knowing he could have killed them at any time, and seeing it in their eyes. He killed the one human and now only faced the Lower Demon Leader. The demon found himself backed against a wall with no where to turn. He threw his sword down and cried out "Mercy." But Dante would have none of that. "The only mercy you will receive is a quick death." With that he ran the demon through and watched him fall to the ground. He then turned to see how Laylah was doing.<br/><br/>Midnight and Nyx did not pursue the rest of the bandits. They returned and they to watched Laylah their tails switching back and forth, as they circled low to the ground, ready to pounce if need be.
