Soft feet walked slowly across the field, her hands were stretched out to side side waving around slowly making sure she wouldn't hit anything, the little blindfolded girl shivered from the cold and her big stone boots left imprints in the ground as she walked, then there was a thud and she was lying on the ground. "What there was a tree?" She rubbed her head sitting up but there was a branch above her head, THUD, she fell the ground holding her head, "Owie owie owie..."

The sound of a tree branch falling broke the silence of the forest. The sounds of a girl expressing the pain she felt seemed amplified. Lin emerged from the shadow of a tree close by the girl. Shiro had asked her to assist a demon called Eight. Apparently she was blind and was likely going to take longer than any other demon to get through a forest. This wasn't exactly one of the most exciting of missions he gave Lin, but she wasn't complaining. Lin observed the girl on the ground who was holding her head. She restrained a smirk, what Shiro saw in her Lin would never know. Although the girl's reputation in a fight was sound, outside of battle she was as helpless as a kitten.
"Lord Shiro sent me to assist you, I assume you are Eight? He feels you will be suffering some difficulties." Lin said to the girl, "My name is Lin." She held out her hand to help the girl up.

Erika looked up at the swirls of red and green that was Lin's body, she could tell it was demon blood flowing through the veins because it changed from hot to cold constantly. So this Lin person knew Lord Shiro? She smiled grabbing the hand and dusting herself off, she looked around. How could anyone blame her this tree was in the middle of whoop-whoop, although, she was glad she wasn't in a forest the situation would have been worse. "yes that's me," she replied softly to Lin, "but my real name is Erika, Erika Shirizu." Zu, the same ending at the end of Shiro's name, adopted by him and anyone who he created or worked for him.

The girl was admittedly softer than a normal demon. Lin sighed and gently pulled her up onto her feet. "I wasn't filled in on what your mission is and Lord Shiro said you would be able to." Lin disliked not being told things; knowledge was equal to power. Without knowledge she couldn't make sound decisions that could affect her majorly in the long run. Lin pondered what would happen if Erika had to get through the forest all by herself. Suppressing a smirk, she imagined the girl bumping into almost every tree. Who knows? Perhaps she would have ended up going to the wrong place without even knowing it.

Erika looked around, apart from the odd bat and of course Lin she could sense no other life forms. That is, unless a demon was using protect, then in which case even someone with supersonic eyes would not be able to see or even sense the creature. But she doubted that fact, not many demons apart from their Lord Shiro liked to use that technique since they loved being seen and feared. Erika then changed her mind to answering Lin, she sighed trying to remember herself...then she remembered! "I need to go to the East and collect Holy Water from the Spirit's lake," she said seriously, "with my quick abilities it should be a piece of cake...I think the problem is the defense that the water would have." The Spirits and Lawful Dragons are very protective and dangerous and she was in all seriousness scared of the outcome.

Holy Water? Why would Lord Shiro want that? It wasn't just dangerous to obtain, but also deadly towards demons. A small theory formed in Lin's mind. What if Lord Shiro was planning an assassination? If he was going to use Holy Water was he after the King? Of course there was also the prince who would rightfully be in line for the throne as well. Perhaps Lin was making a big deal about it, though she wouldn't put it past Shiro to do that.
"Well Lord Shiro told me to assist you, so we may as well form a plan of action while we head over to Spirit Lake." They would definitely have to wait for night to fall for infiltration. Lin would have the advantage of being unseen and Erika would be able to sense the guards. If they were lucky, they would be in and out without any bloodshed although it would be fun to leave some bodies around to ruffle their feathers.

Erika nodded at Lin and moved her head around, she would have closed her eyes if they weren't binded together but as she turned her head she formed a mental image sensing where the East was using the gravitational bearings, one of the only useful things Shiro had given her after blinding her, "In that case we better move," she said walking forward unsteadily, "it will be pitch black soon." She could tell Lin was uneasy about the whole Holy Water thing and she did not blame her one bit, she gave a small smile she knew presicely what her Lord was going to do and if anything it was quite innocent, if not playful at the least.

Lin nodded in agreement. Speed, stealth, and darkness would be their greatest ally right now. "I can help you get to our destination without you bumping into anything." She said resting a hand on Erika's shoulder. Considering the girl was blind, Lin wondered whether or not there was a risk of her falling into the lake. Lord Shiro would definitely not like that and it would mean Lin had failed in her given task. To Lin, the most dangerous threat on the whole mission, were the dragons if they ran into any.
"I haven't bothered to try it before, but after we obtain the Holy Water, I could try transport us right back to the Dark Castle rather than walking all the way there." Lin said thoughtfully. She wasn't sure if she was capable of doing it, and who knew what would happen to the person if something went wrong. She imagined they could possibly lose a limb or two or perhaps be trapped between space. If worse came to worse she could just die. Either way she wouldn't find out unless Erika agreed.

Erika shook her head waving her hands in front of her worringly, "No need no need," she said nervously, "I can fly, like some other demons," she paused looking around, there wern't many thermals in the sky and it may be hard to navigate but atleast she knew that she had this abiity and it could and would work, she looked at Lin in a sorta, 'your descision' way and sighed looking around. This may be hard.
