Chapter Seven: Secret revealed

Night as come and Wally walks down the stone halls a small candle in his hand. Again he finds himself drawn to the painting as his obsession grows. It's consuming him and he can't stop it. As he approaches the painting something happens that Wally could not have predicted but is somehow not surprised by: the painting opens and lord Wayne steps out. There is blood staining the man's shirt.

Wally freezes watching intently. He's desperate to ask, to know but his words are caught in his throat. He doesn't know whether he should approach or run but the choice is taken from him when Lord Wayne sees him.

"Father Wallace," Wayne chokes out. "What are you doing wandering at this hour?" Wally is closes his eyes and speaks.

"What's behind there," the priest demands. "Tell me! I have to know." Lord Wayne shakes his head.

"Something more horrible than you could ever imagine," the man says. "And I'm going to stop it no matter what it takes."

"Let me help you," Wallace whispers. "I'll do whatever it takes." Lord Wayne seems to be considering and finally gives a hard look.

"Alright," Wayne says. "Meet me in the court yard tomorrow night." Lord Wayne turns and goes leaving Wally is shock and more confusion than before.

Roy watches Artemis intently, a scowl set hard on his face. He doesn't trust her, not in the least and he'd see her dead if she wasn't serving him some use. That is if she isn't lying to him, in which case he intends to slit her throat. But he has to find Richard and he will if it kills him.

"How much farther," Roy barks at the demon. The blonde smirks.

"In such a hurry," She says. "We're almost there."

"I swear if you're playing me I'll kill you on the spot," Roy snarls.

"Oh shut it," Artemis hisses. "I have no reason to." The two walk through the wood, its cold but they are unfazed. Roy's wings are pressed against his back hidden under his shirt. It's uncomfortable but necessary to move about the human world unnoticed. He's now wondering how many demons and angels are lurking about. The ones shunned from their homes for their sins; ones like Richard.

Richard's sin was caring to deeply for humans, for wanting to be a part of them. And so he fell and then he was just gone. Roy fears the worst, and he almost knows something is horrible has happened to his friend.

"There," Artemis says as the trees clear and ledge appears. Beyond the drop is a monastery, massive made of cold gray stone.

"He's being held there," Artemis says. "You're on your own from here." The demon and vanishes into the night. Roy scowls but lets her go; he's got more important things to deal with. He's going to save Richard and destroy anyone who gets in his way.

A/N: Okay the rescue is coming up soon but I think there will be much more after that!
