He was getting really annoyed by that goddamn body-controlling trick. It was bad enough that she was somehow managing to do it in the first place--'controlling me!'--but he felt all the more indignant by the fact of what she meant to make him do. He would not bow... and yet incredibly he could not force his legs to rise. 'Maybe it is about time I ditched this mortal shape' he thought silently to himself. 'I'd like to see her try to pin down a shadow.' He was seriously considering it and choking her before she knew it, but considering that he was still wildly unfamiliar with the situation, he held back once again. Whatever she could do to him, he doubted it would really hurt him or worse, and he was much more inclined to get her to display her abilities. He sensed something seemed off with his--perhaps an explanation as to how she held power over him--and meant to discover what those limitations were alone and not while he was doing battle.
And so instead, he antagonized her, a cruel smirk forming on his lips as he stared up at her, no sign of fear of compliance. "Oh please. You A Goddess?" He gave a bark of laughter. And then another. "That's funny! Don't make me laugh! Unless you're hiding your true form, the last time I checked, goddesses weren't supposed to look so entirely... plain," he said, tacking on a sad sigh.

He hit a nerve with her and he could see it as plain as day on her face. Her eye twitched and so did both her hands. "Plain?........PLAIN!?" She march down to him pulling her hand up so that he was now standing. "You think of me as plain?" She voice was full of hate. She was vain, she couldn't help it, her and her family where said to be the most beautiful in all the land and she could not take such talk from some one like this. The ground around then began to tremble and the earth around Deamon swallows him up. "I can do a lot worse you know. I could have you kill your self. I could suck the air right out of your lungs. I control everything around you. You life is in my hand. You should watch what you say to me." She pulls her hand up and send him flying out of the ground letting him land with a loud thud. "I am the element. I am the earth the sea and the sky. They all bow to my will and my calling." She glares at him. "You may not be from around here Deamon but you should not be so cocky."

Her actions silenced him, as he studied her with curious gaze and a slight tilt of his head. His eyes showed no fear, they only sparkled with an inquisitive glint. Certainly, her powers were unusual, especially if they were extensive as she was claiming. A quick sense--no, she wasn't exaggerating--he could feel that she was not lying. Useful, being a soul torturer. There was no denying he was in pain, but pain was so arbitrary. He had been in worse. Yet he recognized the importance of the event: she thought he was human, and was holding back.
He stopped staring at her with what was really actually an adorable gaze of childish curiosity from his position on the floor (though would have never known it, as he had neither been curious or a child for many, many millenia), when suddenly his lips curled up and abruptly he began to laugh. Not arrogantly, just mirthful, baffled sort of laughter as he doubled back and let his back fall against the floor. For a moment, he even held his sides, writhing on the floor. Then he quickly popped up again, onto his feet and leaned slightly closer, his expression shining with amusement. "Fantastic--simply fantastic. I cannot believe--you hurt me!" he spoke as though it were a good thing, such was his tone. And then he averted his gaze by means of a slightly turned head, and began to chuckle again, carefree. This was new, and he was certainly not bored.

Nefertari just has a perplexed look on her face as the event unfolded before her eyes. Slowly she head tilted to the side. He was right, he really was perfectly insane. She blinked a few time and walked back to her set and sat down. "I can do more then just hurt you, you know... Though at this point it seems like you like pain. Oh very odd." She took on the manner that she had before all of this and watched him again. "It does seem that I do have rather an odd pet on my hands... now about your armor. You really can run around in that all the time I just can have that." She beacons him closer again but this time she doesn't make him move on his own. "And as much as I would rather call you my Shu I will humor you and let you keep your strange name, Deamon... What does that even mean?"

He huffed and crossed his arms at the mere mention of her intended name for him. "I have been called numerous things throughout the years, but calling me Shu would have been the most nonsensical and ironic of them," he muttered, feeling it was necessary to bring that up. Only then did his expression shift back again from his petulance--not to his adorable look of glee of moments ago--but to his former smirk of arrogance.
"The meaning of my name is of little importance, because through my actions and legacy, I have utterly redefined it. It is a word that was once bestowed upon me, not more than a simple sound in those days, but that I then marked countless others by and created meaning for it."

Nef....looked....BORED!!
She wasn't even looking at him now, off to the side was where her attention was focused. He could have just said the meaning of his name and not gone off on that boring explanation. He really thought he wasn't human, something more then that. That thought was so odd and strange to Nef, other then her family there was nothing more to the planet that he could be other then human. She gave a little yawn and got up again walking away from him. For a few moments he was alone in the room but she reappeared again holding a white and read cloth. Nef walks over to him and held it out. "you know what? I suddenly don't care what your silly name mean. Now if you would so kindly put these on my pet... Well you can put them on or I could." She was looking up into his eyes with a grin on her face. She has to power to do and by god she would!

He looked at the cloth with an upraising gaze, and then his face contorted in a sneer. He tried to brush it away from where she held it to him, as though it physically appalled him. "Please. I would not wear something so garish. White does not suit me in the slightest. What, do you want me to blend in?" He said, appealing to her fashion sensibilities.

Nefertari rolls her eyes and the cloth changed to black in her hands. "Fine then you can wear black and red seeing at that is the same color scheme of your armor. Now please go and change you look so ridiculous standing there in that armor. People are going to think that I am think about war having you stand around here like that." She shoves the cloth into his arm. "And I'll find a place to put you armor so that it wound get lost... Thought I can't really see a need for it any more." She says waving her hand at the thought of why anyone would really need armor in this day and age. Her Mother was the one that brought around this time of peace, all be it threw a war, but it was still a time of peace.

Daemon raised an eyebrow. "Oh, I'll need it, all right. I doubt that I'll be here for long, if only because people from my home will come to get me. I told you that I am a prince after all." Nonetheless, he took the clothing anyways, though he made no move to change. "And I will store my own armor, thanks."

Nefertari hold up her hand and gives a little laugh. "Ok what ever you say... And if you it's true that you claim to be a prince...." Nef looks to the door at the end of the hall. "Kealya would you please come on here." Kealya walks into the room clip board in hand looking as bored as ever. "Yes Nefertari?" "Kealya my dear can you do some digging for me? I would like to know if my new pet here is really what he claims to be, a prince." Kealya looks over at Demon and raises and eyebrow. "Yes Nefertari I'll be back soon with a report."Nef smiles at her as she bows and leaves the room. "That girl... Really need to smile more...and you...Put the damn clothing on or I will do it for you."

"I'm sure your little human won't find anything," he sneered. "I am not of your world. I said that I come from Hell." He looked down at his clothing, and the fact that she still stood their, so impertinent, and it made his frown deepen. "And, good god, can you at least pretend to have some decency? I am not going to subject myself to changing before you!"

"Oh yes this mythical Hell place I'm sure the will come for you." It was clear that she didn't believe, there was no such thing as Hell and Heaven after all. On the other matter she give a laugh to it. "Decency? My dear pet you are in a land where the new fashion for woman is to show their breast off. Come now there is nothing wrong with showing off the human body it is a thing of beauty. . . But I guess if you really are so bothered by my presence you can go and change in that room." She point to a door just off to the right of them.

His expression remained petulant as he backed off, unwilling to say anything to that...woman who thought she could control him. HIM! He was annoyed as well that she had no recognition of his home, no fear of who he was. But at least he would be in a room. Without her watchful eyes, perhaps he could run a few quick tests on himself. A few steps back, and he finally turned around, brusquely striding off into the room and then shutting the door --harshly-- behind him.
He looked down at his clothes and sneered again. Really, these hardly looked like more than servant clothes, they were so minimal! He could not bare it! It would be the first thing he would change! He dropped his armor, which clanked heavily against the floor, and made a pocket of shadows to hide them in. As long as there were shadows where he stood --which there always were-- he'd be able to reach for them. Then, the clothes. By means of his magic, the shadows once more flowing through them, he made them... more appropriate for a man of his standing. He would not wear what amounted to essentially just a skirt! By the time that he was done, it covered his chest, his legs, his arms, and even had mantle across his shoulders. He frowned--he'd look like a freaking priest, but at least it'd be better than looking like her property. The fabric looked uniform, but much of what covered him were his shadows. 'Good luck trying to change THAT, 'Goddess'...' he thought to himself.
And then he tried to forge his connection to hell. What happened next caused his jaw to outright drop. After a few moments, he came to realize... it wasn't there.

Nef just gave a little head shake when she saw him walk off and slamming the door behind him, like a child. Nef's head turns when she hears the other door open and Kealya walks back in with a little bow. "Well that didn't take long Kealya what new to you bring me?" Kealya looks down at his clip board. "I went as far as to look into the oracle to see if he was from a foreign land but it found nothing." She gives a little laugh. "So he is not a prince after all." "I don't think you quite understand what I meant my Goddess. It found nothing." Nef stops laughing and stares at her with a dumbfounded look on his face. "Nothing?! How?! He couldn't have just come out of thin air!" Kealya give a shrug of her shoulders. "I don't know what to tell you. Strange things happen all the time. I mean didn't you Dad appear one day out of the blue? And if I recall there was nothing on him as well." Nefertari looks back over to the room when she hears the clatter of the armor hitting the ground. "Yeah he did... I wounder.... Well like you said Kealya strange things happen all the time. That's all for now you may take the rest of the day off and go do something fun! I don't think I have ever seen you with out that bred look on your face." Kealya give a little node and blow again as she leaves the room. "Thank you Nefertari.... If you do need just call for me."
Nef walks over to the door that blocks her from seeing her pet and give a little knock on it. "Deamon..." She calls to him with a coo to her voice. "Deamon it seems you are not a prince at all... In fact it seem there is nothing know about you... What are you my pet?"

"Just because one simple human could not find anything about me in a matter of eleven minutes, 36 seconds, and 3.2 milliseconds, does not mean that I am not a prince. By that same reasoning, you could say that I do not exist at all, since you can find nothing of me."
He stepped out of the room, with his drastically altered garments. And perhaps just for pride, he took out the large, saucer like rubies from his armor and embedded them into his outfit, shining proudly on his chest like a necklace with no chain. "Or do you believe a commoner would be found with such treasures?" he pointed out.
