Jake sniffed the air and could smell something sweet. He growled slightly when it was beginning to be masked by another, more dense and sour scent. He looked around then finally looked up to the sky and saw that Alex was chained and carried by his ex. He growled more and it became more demonic and deep. His wings fluttered out and the feathers melted off to become leathery wings like Riku's but with more spikes. He flapped strongly and began to transform as he flew up to their height. HIs nails were an inch long and black. His canines grew to about two inches and were poking out of his mouth. He growled and his eyes were black spheres with a red slit. He glared at Riku. "Release him!!" His voice boomed demonically.

Riku laughed and smiled. "How amazing! Your demonic form has really changed! Look at those hateful eyes! Those long and beautiful canines and nails! ha! Maybe now you can fight me for him!" Alex's chained were now wrapped around his body. Riku pried Alex off of him and held him over the lake. "Tch.. Should I drop him Jake?"

Alex saw Jake's transformation and felt small amounts of tears come to his eyes. That was what he was trying to avoid. He didn't want Jake to fight for him, he wanted him to let him go. He wasn't that important! Lots of others would let him go at the drop of a hat, why wouldn't Jake? 

He hadn't noticed his chained wrapping around him, having been focused on Jake. But he finally noticed this when Riku pulled him away from himself and hung him out so easily over the lake below them, threatening to drop him into the depths of it. He looked down, his eyes widening quickly before one of his chained hands flew over his mouth to keep himself from crying out. He closed his eyes, waiting to be dropped, hoping that it was be quick. Maybe hitting the water would break his neck and he wouldn't have to drown. 

He shivered, but not from the cold and whimpered slightly. He had never nor would be ever be so cruel as Riku was. Sure, he'd been hit and hurt and threatened of death before, but never like this. He'd never been treated this way before, not as bait nor blackmail before. And he'd never been so terrified in his life.

Riku smiled and dropped Alex. His tail swishing "Now... Try to get the boy and keep me away from you..." He growled and flew at Jake.

(sorry Riku's is really short.)

Jake growled and grabbed Riku's wrist, flinging him like a twig down toward the lake. Jake flew down after him and grabbed the chain that was wrapped around Alex, catching him just before he had hit the water. He growled and pulled Alex to his body, closely then flew up to meet Riku face to face as he continued to fall. He grabbed his leg and flew up quickly, his wings pressig to his body to give him speed. Heg

Alex's breath caught in his throat then he was dropped, his heart was up in his throat. He shrieked briefly before he gained control of himself and tried to get out of the chains that were contricting him. He really did. But they stayed fast. He whimpered, wishing that he had never come to this city to look for Malice, but it was too late to go back now.

The water was coming up and Alex knew he was going to die like this. Chained. And the only thing left for him to do as he fell closer and closer to the lake was to try and position himself so that he could at least die on impact. He was soon upside down and tears were in his eyes again, watching the water come up. He closed his eyes, afraid and hoping that Jake would somehow save him. 

He felt the chains contrict around him and he huffed, his breath being taken from him and he opened his eyes to see the water inches from his face and his hair falling around his face and comming into contact with the water. Jake had him and pulled him into his chest where Alex burried his face to try and hide from whatever was going to happen.

"Jake..." He cried softly. He would have wrapped his arms around the other demon if he was not chained up like he was. He didn't care if they fought anymore, he just wanted to get away from this place to somewhere stable where there was no worrying about falling to his death.

Riku spun down and coughed out some blood. He kew how strong Jake could be if he didn't release, but being as foolish as he was, he couldn't allow himself to release completely. He steadied himself but saw that Jake was headed right for him. He braced himself.

(again...)

Jake held onto Alex and grabbed Riku by the wings and flew up as quickly as possible. He growled and continued to fly up before he abruptly stopped and held Alex tightly. He kicked Riku down at a very high speed which sent Riku into the water. Although, it hadn't killed him because RIku used his wings as a sheild. Jake growled and flew down and held Riku by the neck. "You... You suck.. and If i ever see you near Alex again, i'll slit your throat with my nails." His demonic voice fading. Jake threw Riku up and he flew to his balcony, where he transformed into his normal demon form, but more muscular. He walked into the room and snapped the chains off Alex. "You okay?"

Alex stopped when Jake grabbed his hand and looked back at him. "I'm going to hunt for you, because you're sick. And I owe you for everything you've done for me... and will do for me." He told himseply. "Im going because I want to." He told him. "riku wont come for me. He only wanted me because you want me.... You're the only wan.... that wants me." He told him.

He didn't try to pull away from Jake. He decided to just let him make a decision on whether or not to let him go. He wouldn't let him go if he owed a debt either. He wouldn't trust him asfter what had just happened with Riku. 

Alex let his wrist fall limpy to his side once Jake let go of it, and closed his eyes when he kissed his cheek. He opened them once again to look at Jake afterward, wondering what this demon saw in a slut like himself other than a cheep ride. He swallowed, not seeing a reason for him to come seeing as Alex was hunting for him so that he could rest and wait. "Thats ok." He responded with a slight nod. 

Soon he wouldn't be able to catch prey the way he did. He was loosing his touch to draw in other males. It was stressful and actually quite painful to think about. What was he going to do once no one was interested in him anymore. Like Riku. He didn't want Alex, he wanted Jake.... and Alex had been in bed with him.

Alex hid he depression as well. "Lets go.." He stated and started to move again. He was still ashamed to be with Jake after what he had done. "You'll have to go slow since I cant fly anymore." He mentioned. He wasn't fast or anything special. He wished that Jake would have let him hit the water.  

Alex traveled slowly through the darkness, letting the quiet cool air calm him from what had recently happened as he made his way into the city alone. It was nice to be with Jake, knowing that he had a place to sleep and something to eat for his human form. And now he was going out to quench his thirst for blood that his demon body was lusting. And then he would try and bring someone home with him. 

This would be wasy for him to do. he had been doing it all his life. And just because one demon didn't find his attractive didnt meant that he was oosing anything. And sure he didn't get to go home with that many guys lately, but that was probably because he had been focusing so hard on finding Malice. 

He sighed. He'd be fine.
