Will sat back and smirked, glad he'd waited until she'd started on the task to ask her the favor. Tapping the bar next to his glass, he refilled his Very Bloody Mary and made a duplicate, passing it down to Nate.
The two sipped their drinks and watched the show.

Vincent sighed, nodding his head as he stretched out as he continued to speak.
[glow=red,2,300]Vincent: Fine fine, what are you having me do exactly. I mean since it can earn me a room here for life, it must be a pretty big deal right?[/glow]

Alexia smiled, knowing she'd once again gotten her way.
"Well it is to me. You're going to Hell for me on an escort mission. Don't give me that look, the person I want you to fetch is no basic soul. You'll be traveling with Hurc and Cerbarus, to Level 13, to fetch my father, Lucifer, sealed in ice there.
Cerb and Hurc are the only ones beside myself who can get him out of his icy prison, which is why they are going with you. I'd go myself, but frankly, I don't feel like going home just now.
You'll go with them, and get my father, and bring him here. Now mind, he has no power, I've made sure of that, but eh's still VERY dangorus. The Dogs have the ability to make the chains needed to bind him on the way here. Basically, you're job is to keep his sorry a$$ in line. Once I'm finished with him here, you and the dogs will escort him back to his icy cell on the 13th level, and then you are to return here. Thats it really. You'll go in the morning after Cerb has arrived adn I have rejoined his and Hurc's souls...seeing as they are in fact one.
It may sound easy, but it won't be. My father has very powerful persuasion skills, and will try to talk you into taking him to myprivate rose garden in the black stone castle. My orders are that you are to do no where near the castle. There is no need."
She streched.
"Now, if you have any questions, I'm going to bed...for now, you can ask me in the morning."
She started walking towards teh dungeons where Will's room was. She started speaking as she decended the stairs.
"Will, room three is open for your friend. for tonight, its free only because he IS your friend. Hurry up and come down baby."
And she was gone, a silver key with "Three" enscribed on it, appeared on the counter next to Will.

"Hmm, good luck," Will said to Vincent. "You'll need it. I've dealt with Lucifer once, and once only, and never do I want to see him again."
Nate stood, taking the key on the counter. "Show me my room?" he asked Will.
"Sure thing." He lead his friend up the stairs and took him into the bedroom, explaining to him the same things Alexia had explained to Vincent about the rooms.
"Thanks," Nate said to Will. "But, I have another question. Do you...Can you help me figure out how to..I don't know, woo Alexia?"
Will grinned. "I was waiting for you to ask that. But not tonight. Some other time. She's waiting for me downstairs." He winked at his friend and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Sleep well."
Closing the door, he walked back downstairs, noticing Vincent was gone, and went down one more flight of stairs to his dungeon before crawling in bed with Alexia.

Alexia and Will hadn't actually done anything that night. They were best friends. Yeah they had occasional night time fun and such, but usualy they were both just really bored, or really needing some.
This time they meerly stayed up talking about all the things that had happened since they last saw eachother. Things of their mutual past, and just catching up like best friends do. Alexia knew people grew old and left her and the Mystic Tavern. But she knew that whenever Will left, he would always come back, months, years, days, centuries later, but he would return never the less...and if he was away long, he did contact her. MT was his home, and it just wasn't the same place without him.
So the two freinds spent the night doing the thing they did second best, drinking and talking (scaring the nuts out of people was the first thing they did best together).
The next morning came, and Alexia, in far far better spirits than the day before woke up beside a sleeping Will. She slipped out of bed, not wake him. She slipped into his bathroom and took a quick shower, and upon stepping out, waved a hand and her body was dry and clothed.
Today she wore black elephant pants, back JTHM boots that ade her go from 6'5 to 6'8, and a beep purple and black corset that pushed her already large chest up to the point of them bursting out of their boned prison. Her eyes were their natural deep purple color..the corset put on to match them. Her waist length blonde hair had black streas in them here and there, and was in very loose curls the fell softly around her face, and down her back. Her sowrds and daggers were at her hips as they always were, in all she looked the part of beautiful warrior goddess.
Gracefully she ascended the stairs and slipped behind the bar. A have of the hand and a big hearty breakfast appeast along with a tall cold glass of milk. There was no one in teh tavern at this time, so with a wave of her hand, her laptop appeared, it was an acid blue color. She logged ontot he RWW (Realm Wide Web) and started doing a few things on there while she ate, waiting for the morning rush hour to show up.

Vincent woke up from his slumber, yawning as his eyes slowly opened to see the ceiling of the tavern. He slowly sat up and swept his legs out of the covers and stood up. He walked over to the door of his room and opened it, picking up a delicious scent as he licked his lips. He walked down the stairs to indeed see the Goddess eating breakfast, as he heard his stomach grumble for food. Vincent made his way to the bar and the beautiful mistress.
[glow=red,2,300]Vincent Valentine: Greetings, I see you're having breakfast...Can you do that "Things pop out from the bar" in food form? I dont care whats on the plate, I'll eat it.[/glow]
Vincent looked around to see that they were alone, and shrugged, not knowing what to make of it.

"Ya."
She spoke as she absent mindedly waved a hand, not turning her attention from her food or her computer. A plate appeared in front of him, similiar to her own meal, but not exactly like it.
Just then five children of about the age of seven came running down the stairs screaming and yelling for Alexia. All with blue eyes the same icy blue as Alexia's and all deathly pale. There were two sets of twins, a boy and a girl each. One set had beautiful dark chestnut brown hair, the other two had hair as white blonte as Alexia's. The fifth child was a little girl, her hair was such a jet black that it shone deep blue.
They ran across the tavern, through the bar's counter and into Alexia's legs hugging her. Now Alexia's attenton is fully diverted from her food as she spins 90 degrees and drops to one knee to hug and speak with the children.
"Good morning to you too my souls."
This term of affection is far more literal than anyone could ever know.
"I see you are all in human form, and in practice gear. This must mean weapons training in hell today with Jason, am I wrong?"
It was the little girl with black hair that spoke first.
"No, you're correct. You're never wrong Lexi."
Alexia laughed and hugged her.
"Right you are my little Sabbie. Kalasin, baby, how did you sleep last night?"
The little girl with brown hair sighed, obvioulsy Kalasin.
"Dreams, good ones, as usual. Though I slept right through them instead of waking."
"Worry not Sinner, I still get them from time to time. With you're powers, they will pass, and if not, you will be able to make them change."
Her face lit up as Alexia turned her attention to the blonde twins.
"And have you two been fighting again this morning?"
The two flushed guiltily. They each had bruises on their faces that hadn't been there before. She tapped each one on the ehad and the twins were healed.
"Cordi, Xander, you two need to start getting along. Trust me when I say that your twin is the most precious person in your life."
"You don't get along with Justy."
It was Cordi who'd spoken.
"Yes, but Juston and I are also centruies older than you, and we know how to get along. we don't fight like we used to, like you two, we bikker. Juston is very dear to me, Codri, and always has been, as Xander should be to you. Do you see Sinner and Rolad going at it like starving hounds?"
"I resent that."
A growl like voice came from behind her, and she turned to see Hurc deending the stairs.
"You're not a hound, Bubby, you're a demon."
"Lexi! Who's that?!"
The brunett boy, Rolad spoke loudly and pointed accusingly at Vincent. Alexia laughed, and stood straight.
"Cubs, thsi is Vincent. He will be doing a favor for me. Cerberus and Hurc will be rejoining for a short time and you'll be oging to Hell with them and Vincenet this morning. They'll drop you off with Jason, and then they are goign to fetch my father."
Fear washed over the faces of the children. Alexia instantly set to calming them.
"Do not worry, remember I hold his power, he can do nothing. My chains will bind him, Cerb has the, as well as a way to seal his mouth should he start trying to persuade anyone."
Relief hit as quickly as the fear had.
"Now then, since you'll be traveling with him, you should introduce yourselves. As I've said, this is Vincent."
The little ones lined up oldest to youngst, Sabbie, Cordelia, Xander, Rolad, and Kalasin, and each stepped forwad, bowed or curtsied, and introduced themselves. Then Alexia gave them each a plate and sent them off to a table to eat. She gave Hurc a plate of raw steak and then turned her attention to Vinceent.
"I apologize for Rolad's accusingly rude finger pointing at you. He is young yet."

Vincent chuckled soflty, scooping up some eggs and a link of sausage and scarfing it down. Then pulling a cantine from his belt, and drinking some of the mysterious liquid. Vincent wiped his mouth with his sleeve, as he began to speak.
[glow=red,2,300]Vincent Valentine: It's fine, I've dealt with worst in my times of traveling the planet Earth with my old partners, AVALANCHE.[/glow]
Before Vincent started to remember of the past, he quickly spoke again.
[glow=red,2,300]Vincent Valentine: So what is the point of me going on this trip? Couldn't Cerberus and Herc do this on their own, all they do is chain him up and take him where you need them to go.[/glow]
Now that Vincent got in what he wanted to say, his mind started to dwell on the past, remembering his former teammates, who are in a better place now. Vincent had lied about his age to Alexia, and although he was still a lot younger than her, he was a whole lot older than 60. Suddenly Alexia began to speak.

"It is true that they could, but my favther has grown used to them and how htey woke. By now his cunning mind would have had time figuring out how to trick them. In this sense, send you is a wrench in his perfect plan for freedom. Throwing you in is a shrap surprise, something he would not have expected. he won't hvae enough time to do anything about you because the trip will be fairely fast, an hour from time of leaving here to time of return."

[glow=red,2,300]Vincent Valentine: I see...[/glow]
Vincent ate what was left on his plate before he looked around, trying to find the demons that he was supposed to travel with.
[glow=red,2,300]Vincent Valentine: Ok, I guess I'm ready then, where are the 2 demons? And exactly what do you want me]/u] to do? Just watch them and keep your father in check? Like an escort or something?[/glow]

Alexia streched. Her plate had dissapeared long ago when the cubs had come down stairs.
"Well Hurc here is one, and Cerb will be here any moment now. Yes, you'll be more of an escort, jsut an added percaution to keep my father in line. Now I've got to explain something to you about Hurc and Cerb.
They are two souls and they are one. Or better put, they are the same soul with two VERY different personalities, and they don't get along. This is why I split them to begin with. I will be joining them back together for this trip. They will start off looking like Cerberus, but instead of black their body will be brown. He'll fight with himself, which is understandable, and their form will change from the look of Cerb, tot he look of hurc, any possible combination of looks between their two seperate bodies will be taken in form..its their way of gaining dominance over one another. Once you have my father they are to go abck to teh form of the brown cerberus, ad once chained he is to ride on their back. Do not bother to ask to ride as well, they won't allow it and niether will I.
Remember mortal, you will be in MY domain, do not think to pull any tricks because I know all that happens there....and hree is Cerb..."
As she finished speaking black flames shot out of the fire place and from in emerged an inpossibly large, black, three headed dog. A red leather collar with gold spikes was on heach throat, and as for his size? Lets jsut say its a good ting the magickal tavern was able to grow at will to accomidate if inhabittants. He crossed the room and knelt in front of Alexia.
"Rise up Cerberus. I would have this matter done with. Hurc."
Hurc approached and after a few simple words both dogs dissapeared as a single dog appeared in the space between them. He was slightly smaller than Cerberus, but still big. He still had the three heads of Cerberus, but the ehads were shaped more like Hurc's. And the fur was the curly brown fur of Hurc as well. Almost instantly the dog changed size, to look like Hurc, but black,a nd with three heads...then brown with one head that was Cerb's. Then they were large again, brown with one head that was Hurcs.
Alexia turned to Vincent.
"You had better go. there is more roo in hell for these two. The fireplace will take you...Dogs! Drop the cubs with Jason first."
"Aye Mistress" can their reply with two different voices, one Hurc's the other Cerb's.
Alexia scooted the cubs into the fireplace, they were followed closely by the changing dog, and then Alexia watched as Vincent hesitantly headed towards thh fireplace as well.

Vincent took one last look back towards Alexia, seeing that beautiful face for maybe, but not likely, the last time. He stepped into the fireplace as he saw flames surround him, and before he could make a sound, there he was in Hell. He looked around to see the familiar landscape, seeing that he was in Hell not too long ago.

The dungeon door opened just as soon as the flames from the fireplace engorged Vincent. Will stepped into the bar and took a place at the bar near Lexi.
"Sometimes being Ancient sucks balls, you know." Will summoned and lit a clove cigarette, saying, "Nate up there's been knocked out by the sun, but since it holds little power over me, I have no such luxury." Blowing smoke through his nose, he mused, "Realm-lag is always so damn irritating."

"That's because gods don't need a sense of time," Will said, blowing smoke through the side of his mouth. "You only sleep when you want to. It's pretty much the same for me, but I like to sleep."
Figuring this conversation was pretty much pointless, he decided to change the subject. "So, what do you think of Nate?"
