THe scream came from down the street. Lucrimm tried to keep up with Echo, but she could run much faster than he. He got to the man a good five second after Echo.
"oh dear...disgusting!" he exclaimed, "wonder what did this to him... looks like claws. A bear maybe?" He was intentionally acting dumb now. He knew very well that they were demon claws. They left a slight magic aura at the wounds they make.
He was now in a nervous state. A loose demon or another fiend binder, both were bad news for Lucrimm. Unfortunately he had released the only demon that was "protection" him today, out fo sheer annoyance. Demons did know how to annoy people.
He would either have to ditch this girl and summon some more protectors. Or summon the here and risk scaring her off.
Or he could let her protect him... hmmm

"I highly doubt a bear did this..." she sighed, "let's get out of here, don't want to take the chance that whatever did this is still around..." she nodded and walked off, casting a last glance at the man and heading to the inn.
She felt bad for just leaving the body there, but if she saw someone in law enforcement, she'd tell them.

This was his chance! she was walking away, he would have several seconds to summon something. He watched as she walked toward the inn, and when she was a sufficient distance away he stepped into an ally. He quickly started chanting in a gargle-like language. It started out slow then got faster until it all seemed like one big sound. At the climax of the chanting he took a tiny silver knife out of his pocket, unsheathed it and made a small cut on his hand. He then proceeded to make a fist and drip the blood onto the ground. At this point he had stopped chanting and withdrew his hand and watched the blood. The couple drops of blood started to turn black, and started to grow. It steamed and seemed to be creating more black goo from no where. After about five seconds, it began to take the shape of roughly a humanoid. Another two seconds and there stool a nasty looking devil in all it's glory. It tilled it's head to look at who had summoned it. Lucrimm barked a order at it in it's language and hand it's hand out. The demon held his hand just above Lucrimm's and the wound began to heal. When this was done, lucrimm said another order as he began to walk after Echo. The wight faded from normal view. Lucrimm turned out of the ally and started to walk to where Echo was headed. (OOC: this is what the demon looks like wizards.com/dnd/images/bovd_gallery/88161_620_59.jpg )

((don't think we wanna leave the inn, given that Lunare is probably there unless Saturn decides no))
Echo walked inside, not noticing what Lucrimm had done. She had goosebumps from all the magic though, but she couldn't recognize it, not having dealt with magic for so long.
Some source behind her and something... else... She didn't know why she had that feeling, but it put her on edge, and she was careful as she looked around the inn.

(OOC: yeah, maybe lol)
Lucrimm appeared behind Echo in the inn, having ran most of the way. Even though it was a short distance, he was out of breath. Panting for air from his short sprint.
"d**n, you walk fast... didn't you hear me trip back there. Could have waited ya know," he complained.
(OOC: lol, it censored me XD lame. you get the idea though.)

"I don't want to be out there... not with... whatever killed that guy... I don't know what it was, but I don't think it was a bear, those wounds were pretty neat."

"hmm, ok... if you say so," he giggled.
The wight was quietly falling them into the inn.
"So, what do we do for now?" he asked while examining the contents of the room.

"well, it'd probably be better to leave tomorrow morning after what happened, so we can just relax here, eat, get some sleep. Though if you wanna sleep, you'll either need your own room, or sleep on the floor of mine." she shrugged and sat down at a table.

"uhm... I'll get my own room thanks," he blurted out, "though I don't like waiting."
He walked over to the inn keeper, and started to order a room.
The devil started to follow and instead decided to get really close to this blue girl... It got really close to her ear, and let out a low growl. It would enjoy seeing her reaction.

Echo jumped in her seat and turned to look right at the devil.
She couldn't see it, but she knew where it was. She reached a hand up and hesitated a bit before reaching out to touch whatever was there.

one of it's snake entrails nipped at her hand, making a tiny cut. It then let out a growlish-laugh into her ear and moved back to it's master.
Lucrimm was just finishing buying his room for the night. He was hoping he would be able to summon a demon a little more controllable and something he knew well. Maybe it was time to call for Klar.

Echo looked down at her hand, eyes wide as she looked at the bit of blood on her hand, not sure what touched her, but knowing it was still around.

Lucrimm walked back to where Echo was sitting. "what's wrong with you?" he said while making a weird face.
The devil was giggling in a mock girl voice. Lucrimm could hear it perfectly, and it allowed Echo to hear it only slightly, as if being heard from far away.

"something... I couldn't see... I heard it and tried to touch it and it cut my hand... I can hear it now... I don't know what it is, but I don't like it." she looked past Lucrimm at where the devil was, or as close to where it was as she could feel.

He glanced behind him at the wight, glaring at him with all his might. Yet he could not give himself away, thus he could not tell the devil to knock it off. The demon knew this, and just grinned back at him. he turned back to Echo.
"hear what? I don't hear anything," he lied, "I think that dead man has gotten you shaken up is all.
