When she tried to open the door, he went over, rubbing his shoulder in preparation. "Stand back" He took a few steps away from the door, then with all his might, ran into the door. The door was sturdy, but the hinges were old. With a loud thud, the door fell to the ground. The guard looked at Anna, then turned and ran out the doorway.<br/><br/>"Milady! I'm com-urgh!" His shout was cut off suddenly, and the reason soon revealed itself. Meiranis soon entered the bedroom, Lucas's throat in one hand, sharp claws drawing blood. The guard struggled, letting out strangled gasps as he attempted to wretch free from the demon. "Must I keep constant watch over you to keep you from getting yourselves killed?" Meiranis asked in an unamused tone, tossing the guard across the room like one would throw a half filled sack. He landed with a thud, putting a gloved hand over where he was strangled, gasping. "What... have you done to milady??" Lucas growled between breaths. Meiranis simply glared at him, "It doesn't matter. You won't last long enough to find out."
