The demon would remain standing in front of a seat made of stone. His dark robes covering himself, the hood hiding his face from view. He could not allow anyone to know who he was, for the saftey of his mission. This night he would bring a guest here, regardless of it's willingness to come to the summon they would have no choice. Waving his hand, the call was sent out to his power, yanking the young man known as Alex Whitmore from whatever he was doing and pulling him here against his will. The situation was urgent and time was of the essence, he could not risk him saying no to the summons and having to play games. His mind a whirlwind of information, he had to try and figure out the best course of action to implement his new plans.
Closing his eyes he would use his powers to seal off any means of leaving. While he had no intention of forcing Alex he would not risk Good's hot headed nature spoiling what he had to say. He would make sure that he was heard. If they refused to join then there would be consequences however it would simply involve a painful session of Khoua slowly removing the memories from their mind. 'Come young one, we have much to discuss. Demon to demon, your blood cannot deny my call!'

Alex was in the midst of eating dinner when suddenly he felt a message coming to him. His brother Ashe looked up with a worried look on his face as he caught on to his younger brother, who was meanwhile getting up from the chair and walked out of the room. "Alex?" he asked. "Where are you going?" he stood and rushed out of the room and caught up to Alex once he was near the staircase. Alex slowly turned around to face his brother and instantly he orbed out, ignoring Ashe's call. He orbed in front of Khoua. The call was so strong that it clouded Alex's head. Normally he would ignore it but somehow there was a slight pull. Now realizing where he was he looked around him, his eyes wide as saucers. "W-what am I doing here?" he turned to Khoua. "Who are you?"

Watching with an amused smile beneath his hood, he was about to give his name when he realized that he would rather not be recognized by those who knew him before the coming storm. Raising his hand he would laugh softly. "While it is not so important that you know who I am, for the sake of needing something to call me you may address me as Genesis." he stated simply. He found this name fitting for what he had in mind, the collection of powers he was to take on. The young man before him did not know it now but if he were to accept the offer, he would soon be powerful beyond imagination. With a wave of his hand the stone chair would knock the feet right out from underneath Alex and force him to sit. He would then feel the powers within him lessen as if there was some sort of forcefield restraining them. "This is a neccassary precaution young one, do not resist and you shall be okay." he said in a calm tone, his voice echoing a human nature as well as a deep demonic growl.
"I have called you here to serve a greater purpose in the on going struggle of the surface world." he stated as he moved a few steps closer. "You have remained neutral from what I have seen. This is good, it means you can do this job without considering the targets alignment, or so I hope." he stated simply as he folded his hands within the folds of his massive sleeves. "There is a new power rising, one that I am leading with a valiant charge. You are to become one of us, part of a greater cause. Together we shall wipe all offending parties off of the earth." he said as he turned his back to the young man and paced side to side. "The battle between Good and Evil so far has benefited no one, both sides suffer while the ones who hold no supernatural substance suffer the worst. This has to come to an end, we simply must not allow for this kind of thing to continue." he said with a passionate tone.
"This is where we come in. Wherever we see the need for our kind, we shall step in and destroy both sides that seek to undo what the gods have ordained." he stated as he moved closer now to Alex. No matter how close his face could not be seen through the supernatural power maks. It's dark swirling abyss would only show two floating red orbs which constituted his eyes. "Being of a demonic birth grants you the right to enter into such an organization, your power alone in specific is one that benefits us. Half demons hold a much greater power then any realize and it is time to make use of such gifts." he said as he finally looked directly into Alex's eyes. "So now I ask you, Alex Whitmore, what say you?"

Alex kept his eyes locked on the mysterious figure as he had walked up to him and told him of what is happening. Fear struck the boy's heart for he has no clue what is going to happen even when the chair knocked him off his feet forcing him to sit. He wanted to call Ashe, he wanted to call on someone, he wanted to summon his potion, something. But nothing happened. He is so scared he begins to shake. After the man spoke, he decided to ask him a few questions. "But I'm good," he first began, "I don't understand why you would need me. I'm not even full demon only from my father's side and he was good. The only evil we had in our family was our Uncle Arthur, his broter. I had to help my father and my aunt before they died, vanquishing him. If that was to happen why would you need me? Wouldn't I be one that is not part of the demonic community at all? I do not want to anger you only telling you the truth."

He would laugh, loud and startling. The young man seemed to not be able to grasp the concepts of which he spoke. It was expected however he had hoped that he would have been able to recieve more then this. Moving his hand to the boys shoulder he would speak. "This is exactly why we need you. You are not full demon, therefore are capable of better following orders that may come at a high cost to some." he said simply. "You have seen what Evil has done first hand, I am possitive that you did not like it." he said with an all knowing tone. "However good is truely just as bad as what they say they are fighting to protect the world from. They kill those who simply wish to live, those who do as their own nature dictates. It is not the demons fault that this is who he is, that this was what he was meant to do." he said as if he was reliving some sort of past event.
"Your ability to call upon the demonic powers as well as your ability to feel is why you are valuable. In the end that is the only answer I can grant you to this." he said as he now turned away from him. "The choice is up to you, I cannot make it for you. But if you should turn down the offer to become something so much greater, beyond what Good and Evil stand for then know that I shall have to take all the knowledge I have imparted to you." he said as he crossed his hands behind his back. "There is much more that you could learn from me by staying, by becoming one of us. This body contains many secrets." he said with a more entranced tone. An offer he had made, one that would entice many to his side. In his mind, Alex would hear a voice which he might mistake as his own inner thoughts. 'What do you have to lose?'

The more he spoke the more Alex watched him. His eyes didn't leave his sight though he still wondered if he should do this. He's on the good guys side, only to live out his life and not be in anyone's way. And yet he was called here for this. He wish he could leave but there's no way he could. Then he heard what was his own thought but something else. "What exactly do you mean by becoming stronger? What powers do I gain?"

Khoua laughed softly, it seemed that no matter what side power always interested a demon, or just someone who had already felt it's release. "For now I shall only partially answer your question. You will gain power, you will become truely indestructible." he said simply. He would not divulge just yet what kind of powers he would gain for he did not know. "Keep in mind that there will be a limit to most of our power, but overall you will like what happens to you. Our powers shall be able to even stop time it's self one day." he stated as if he was preaching. "For now it is you and I who will build this from the ground up. I already have under my employ someone who will gather the powers for us. She is currently doing it now, you know her as Loray." he stated with a chuckle. "Thats right, when she asked you to orb she was simply doing her job. Granted she also seems to think your pretty neat, she is quite loyal to the cause." he said remaining facing away from Alex. Should he get angry Khoua would let him have his hits, there was nothing the young man could do to harm him.
"So now I implore you, make you choice quickly. We can waste no time in preparing. It will take several painful nights for me to pass on to you the power that I shall grant you as my right hand. You will become...indestructible."

"Honestly power doesn't matter to me. I only have one or two, which is just levitation and energy ball. The energy ball is of course the demonic power while the levitation came from the witch side. I don't mind having another power since it is kind of hard to do my demon hunting thing with just two powers. But it makes a cool combo." Alex paused for a moment, his face turned to a complete shock. "Wow you mean Loray is part of this too? I think of her as neat also. Hell she's the first friend I ever made. Look I'm not angry you summoned me or what not. Just I ask one thing. Please. I will do this but I just need you to answer one more question I want to ask." He thought about Ashe, since he doesn't want to leave his only family member he has since everyone else is gone.

He knew where he was going, one of his many gifts granted him insight into the young halflings mind. "Worry not of your brother. He wil be frozen in time, spared the painful anguish of growing old." he stated simply. He would honor his word, even though it came from a demon. "I will return him to you one thousand years from now, when we are fully ready to act upon my designs." he stated. With his brothers saftey holding him back Alex would be useless, this was the only way. Soon he would summon Loray, and then they could begin what he had in store. The collective would be put into motion this night, the ancients power being placed into it first.
"Get some rest, you're going to need it." he said simply as he motioned to what looked like a bed. "I shall keep watch and begin the neccassary preperations." he stated simply as he vanished into another room of the domain.

Just before he was going to ask, the mysterious figure answered and told him that he would get to see his brother again. He wanted to say thank you but instead he nodded his head. "Okay," he said as he got up and walked over to the bed and climbed onto the bed itself. He pulled back the covers and climbed underneath and then continued looking around him. He can't believe it that he is down here. Usually he would hear stories about the Underworld and the last time he was down here was of the vanquish of Arthur, but never has he be down here for this. He sighed and closed his eyes.
