Delphine was glad that the voices seemed to stop as soon as she put the pendant back in her pocket. That was certainly a new thing and she absolutely didn't want that to happen again. She only voice she wanted to hear in her mind was Kryner's when they connected, not some demon hellbent on terrorizing them in the middle of the night. A demon somehow connected to her brother. As she thought about it, she glanced back only to see those horrible orange eyes glowing in the dark at them and ran right up the stairs after Hoss. She was breathing hard by the time they got up there and was trying to control it so she wouldn't make too much noise. She just so happened to glance out the window and see Kryner mutilating one of the men outside and had to turn away instantly as she very quickly began to feel queasy.<br/><br/>Del took a moment just to breathe and try to calm herself as they had a moment of silence in the kitchen and that's when she heard the laugh that made her freeze up. Her blood went cold at the same time she started to feel an incredible anger deep down inside her flare up. Very slowly, she looked towards the den and listened closely, swallowing hard as she tried to look and see him. Delphine got her gun out again and very slowly started to step closer to the den, taking slow strides and pressing up against the corner to remain undetected. She quickly looked out and caught a glimpse of him.<br/><br/>Nathan was there of course, standing with a few other big burly Stalingrante men. He was slender and dressed in a well-fitting red suit jacket, black hair that was greased and slicked back. Light glinted off of the rings he wore on his fingers and his presence was more domineering than was to be expected from someone his stature. The man looked older than he did in his portrait at the company they'd seen earlier that day, but it was spot on otherwise. As Delphine watched, the floorboard creaked under her foot and she quickly pulled back to be unseen. The conversation paused and they could hear Nathan ask something in Stalingrante, only to get no response. With a sneer and a roll of his eyes, he asked, "Hello? I'm talking, who's there? Answer me, numbnuts."<br/><br/>Delphine took a deep breath knowing their cover had been blown. Her hands were shaking, but she clutched her gun tightly and stepped out from around the corner, pointing it right at her sibling. The surprise on his face was evident, but it soon turned into a confident smirk. "So my big sister returns from the dead and the first thing she does is wave a little toy around at me. What are you gonna do Delphine, shoot me?"
