Caitlin could not believe the speed the three were traveling in. She could feel the wind blowing over her, the coolness of the night air, all of it, sending shivers through her body. She should be scared, she told herself, instead of enjoy it. Even when she looked down at the ground far below, with the city light now growing distance, she only felt freedom. She remember the tiny fairy, clinging onto her hair, realising that mint had been very quit during the trip. She could have sworn that mint was trembling with fear and had only just started to calm down.
What ever Meredith had become, it had truely scared her mini teacher and Mint didn't scare easily.
Caitlin could hardly believe it herself, Meredith had been a plain jane only half an hour before and now she was hot. In more ways then one. It wasn't just the change of Meredith appearence that had Caitlin bothered, it was the way that the girl had acted, it was pure wickedness. Shuddering, she had no doubt, that if Crimson hadn't come along, she and mint would have died a horrid death.
"That was a Demon, wasn't it?" Caitlin asked "He changed Meredith into that fire thing?"
"Yes, a Demon lord, one of the Seven lords of hell itself!" Crimson said quietly "But he didn't change Meredith!"
"What, your telling me that he had nothing to do with that?" Caitlin asked in shock "If he didn't do it, then who did?"
"Meredith did, oh she had a little help, but she had to want the change in the first place!" Mint sodded "All this time, he been twisting her, feeding her darkness within, I should have noticed!"
"Mint, it okay, your mistress, and me should have noticed long before you did!" Crimson said kindly, trying to ease the sobbingh fairy "Anyway, we here and i can explain a little more!"
Caitlin, looked up towards where they were heading, and saw they had come up on a well hidden large manor house. Only Crimson wasn't heading for any door or window, he was heading towards a wall and wasn't slowling down. Caitlin would had screamed, but before she had chance, they hit the wall and carried on. It was strange, the passed throught wall after wall, as if were nothing more then a illusion. Final, they cam to a stop in a large chamber, that had been made to look like a temple.
Caitlin looked round the room slowly. The first thing she saw, was a woman kneeling beside a young woman only a bit older then herself, who was layed on some pillows, in a deep sleep. The older woman had to be Robin, form what little Calla had told her, but her clothes seemed to be wet in places and crusted with something in others. The younger woman could not have been Sharon, as Calla siad she was talla then Robin and a little older. So maybe this was the Lucy, Crimson had mentioned he wanted her to meet, yet she was barely dressed.
Caitlin then noticed something odd, if anything could be odd after recent events, that their was another crimson in the room, beside the one that still held her hand. The two Crimson smiled in noticing her surprise and even giggle a little. The one who had brought her let go of her hand, smiling, walked over tyo his other self. When the two meet, they seemed to become ghost like and then mereged into one. Back to one of himself, crimson smiled and said "It one of the little perks of not having a fully solid form!"
"Thanking for waiting, Robin!" Crimson said, to the woman kneeling "Where sharon, my mind still a little scattered!"
Robin nodded towards a corner and Caitlin followed Robin's gesture. Caitlin almost screamed at what she saw, coiled up in one corner was the largest snake she had ever saw. It had coiled itself up, with were the head would have been hidden in its coils, it must easily been twenty meters long and it taikl as easily thick as her own waist. She then notice a large shape, where she guessed the creature's belly was, it saw clearly the outline of a woman and there were two slight mounds where her breast would have been. Had this Snake swallowed Sharon?
"Sharon, It time to wake up, your guest have arrivied!" Crimson said softly and kindly.
Caitlin gasped, as the coils shifted slightly and then the head started to rise. Only instead of a serpent head, was the the top half of a very beautiful woman, waking from a deep nap. Caitlin could only gaze in awe and shock, as this snake woman turned to look at her and smiled warmly. Caitlin couldn't help but stare, noting the shapely form and firm D Breast, that seemed to sway to an unheard sound. The face was all too human, yet their was a hint of exoticness about it, the eyes seemed to be slightly tilted, but not so much that it seemed odd, only adding to her strange beauty.
"Hi, Im Sssharon!" the Snake-woman said in a warm friendly voice, there was aklos sadness in the voice, catlin noticed "Pleassse, do not be afraid of me, Crimssson had promisssed to help me!"
"Okay, I you say so!" Caitlin replied a little unsure of her safety "I have enough fear tolast me a life time!"
"Im afraid you be having to get used to it, you all will, for that, i am sorry!" Crimson said, kindly "There is much i have to tell you, but it's better if were all awake!"
Before anyone had any chance of asking him what he meant, Crimson had moved over to Lucy, and smiled down at her sleeping form. Robin watched as Crimson placed lucy glasses back on her and a black latex dress form from her gloves. Slowly, the young woman eyes open and realisation came to her. Lucy would have screamed, only Crimson hushed her by gently touching her lip and she she to relax despite her will.
"Hello Lucy, my names Crimson, I won't tell you what i am, i let the others tell you!" Crimson whispered gentle and warmly to her "What important, is that your safe, Sharon won't hurt you anymore, in fact, she gonna help you in ways you can't understand just yet!"
"She here, in this room!" Lucy said, starting to panic and trembling "She a monster, she ate my Dad, she was swallowing me!"
"I know, but it gonna be okay, in know how this seems!" Crimson said, soothing her fear with his own powers "I need to tell you some things, some of which your not going to like, that goes for every one in this room, but you all need to know!"
