Bahamut was out in Cascadia at night, walking the empty streets. When he saw any guards, he would turn down a alley or another street. Eventually though, they had him pinned, in the middle of a four way street. There were ten on each of the streets leading off, fourty in all. "Just my luck, to have to kill you all." He smiles, then casts Ennervation, his demon powers doubling the power, killing three guards. He uses a firebal on seven more, then draws his saw-toothed glaive, ripping ones chest open. But they were surrounding him, he wished he had just a little help....

Rith walked slowly through the streets. His slow footsteps were hardly audible. He enjoyed the calm breeze that blew through the night. He was invisible as he walked. Terror was invisible as well and floated around as Rith walked. Rith stoped as he heard screams down an ally he was passing by. He saw the oh so familiar bahamut surrounded by a large amount of guards. "It seems of the fool has gotten himself in trouble again. Prehaps we should sit back and watch," Rith thought to Terror with a smile upon his face. The tainted wisp had no want of watching. He wanted to play. The creature flew through the alley and past the gaurds and Bahamut. Terror went further down the road and Transformed instantly into a ferocious creature. The Guards cowered in fear as they caught sight of the 15 foot tall Cerberus walking slowly towards them with red glowing eyes. The gentle quaking of the earth as Terror walked helped bring the attention of the guards facing the other ways. "Partypooper!" Rith thought to himself as he watched.

He looks at the Cerberus with no fear. He then attacks the guards again and again, until only ten are left. He leaves those to the dog, wanting it to have a bit of fun. He smiles, watching them die.

Terror's three grinning heads let out a low growl as he lowered his heads as if to strike. The remaining guards ran wildly for their lives. Rith smiled he was given one of those opportunities he had been always waiting for. The ex-god of fire could be useful for many of his plans and word of his guild also made him even more useful though not too much as he had yet to hear of him gaining members. Rith walked out of the shadows towards the lone creature that stood before Terror. He was no longer invisble, but his form was also not that of a child. He was tall and wore expensive looking black clothing and purple gloves and cape. His head was a shadowy black and held no features save two purple eyes assumed to be his eyes. "I see you have gone through several changes Bahamut. Let me guess, It is all in spite of the gods!" Rith's voice came from all around Bahamut as Rith approached. Terror sat down and turned all six red glowing eyes down upon Bahamut.

He turns."Wizard....."He growls, snake features coming out, fangs and eyes."I should have known I would find you here."He smiles slightly."Like my new look? No wings anymore, but I can change into a bird, or a dragon, if I want wings."He smiles again."What brings you here? Capturing poor souls?"

"Wizard? Does he think of me as the wizard how made him nothing but a hopeless soul," Rith thought to himself. "I love the look. Capturing poor souls? No. Not to night. Tonight I come to meet with you. The hour of darkness is in jeapordy. The gathering of certain doers of good is begining to be unerving as they quickly gain power. I was hoping you would find it worth your while to aid in the movement to stunt this growth and prehaps even remove it from the face of Imythess," Rith's voice continued as he stoped infront of Bahamut.

He smiles."I have never been good......even as an eidolon, I worked for my master. Well, darkness can't be defeated, now can it? But, what would you propose that I do? I mean, I am but one person, in a world of many."

Rith turned to Terror and petted the middle head which had lowered to the ground. "An ant can do nothing on it's own, but in the proper amount they can tear a human to shreds in less than a minute. You are one in a world with many like you. You are never alone though it may seem so at times. I propose that you listen to my guidance."

He sneers. "And what can you do for me? I can kill well enough on my own." He indicates the glaive, and flexes his clawed hands."Tell me what I would get out of this, and maybe I would consider it."

Rith seemed to pay no attention at all to Bahamut's gester to his Glaive. "Of course you can kill well enough on your own. I would not be seeking you otherwise. You lack the ablity to see the big picture, the ablity to see how mass destruction and havoc can be acomplished. A little birdy told me that you wish for your guild to prosper, but have no followers. My guidance alone can help you in many ways, but what is it that you wish to have?" Rith's voice sounded calmly.

"What do I want? You would not understand what I wanted. But another thing I want is power. Everyone wants it, thrives for it, but few ever attain it."He smiles wickedly."So, you say you could help me? What's the catch?"

"Be not so sure that I would not understand what it is that you truly want. I am a master of things abstract, but of course who does not want power. It comes in so many forms, and as such I have many forms to offer. Knowing which form you want is useful in such a case. And now we come to the catch. Power comes at it's price. My price is that my guidance be followed. The price you paid to the demon's is far less than I ask. Rather than a bond with your soul I wish merely that my guidance be followed. There may be case were my guidance shall sound curious, but if you foolow to the best of your capablity, then you shall overcome these challenges," Rith's voice sounded as he turned around to face Bahamut.

He thinks about this for a very long time."So I would have to do what you say, when you say it, no exceptions? That sounds a little too much......"He frowns, sitting down on a bench nearby."But what exactly will I get out of this? I would like to know, before I agree to anything."

Bahamut was not a dumb as he looked, but it didn't take a genius to see through Rith's words. "Perhaps it does seem too much, but where is the limit for power? Where will you stop in your search for what you want? You know what you get out of this. You have always known. You get what you want, whether it be power or prehaps something more abstract," Rith's voice souded as he watched Bahamut with his emotionless face.

His eyes light up at the mention of power, but that light quickly disappears."And you think you could get me what I truly wanted? I extremely doubt that. But it still sounds to much like slavery to me. If I wanted that, I would have stayed in Gaia."He was still turning everything over in his head, trying to figure how he would get the most out of this without having to do much."If we are to do a deal, I think you should know more about me. Then you can decide if you can trust me or not. Ask me anything, and I'll answer, if possible."He smiles wickedly, showing his pointed teeth.

Rith suspected that Bahamut's words were meant more for Rith to do likewise. It was obvious that he was more than sceptical of of Rith's ways. He knew not what Rith wanted nor much about him at all. "I do not know what you truely want so I can not say I can get it for you, but chances are likely that I can. You do want power and that is a thing that I can easily give. This is far from slavery. Slavery is following and geting treated like crud for doing so. I offer you power and what you want if it is in my bounds. My guidance shall not keep you too busy that you can not enjoy the profits of your service." Terror seemed to have lulled to sleep as the conversation went on. "Here is my question then, Bahamut. What is it that you want more than anything?." Rith wondered if his answer would be truthful. Bahamut had agreed to give an answer, but said nothing of wheter he woul answer truthfully.

His smile fades, and his eyes look sad."I want my daughter. I want to see her, just once. But Varila says I must wait. So I must."His eyes harden again."Well, there, I answered. And slavery does not necessarily mean cruelty. It just means being able to order someone to do whatever you want."

If Rith had lips he would be smiling with them. "To see her should not be hard but to meet her may be more difficult. It may be out of my bounds, but I shall see what I can do. As for how you see our deal, I do not care. It is the only way you can get certain things you want," Rith's voiced replied before he vanished in the darkness to reappear on Terror's middle head. "You may take my deal or care about your buisness in your own fashion," Rith's voice sounded as Terror rose to his feet.

He frowns, looking at the dog, then the person on it."I'll get back to you on it."He then turns and walks off into the dark night, to find something that could be somewhat thought of as food to a demon like him.

"There is no going back once the path is chosen," Rith thought o himels as Terror turned around and headed off into the distance. It was curious people said such things when they had no means of communicating with him at all. It reminded him of the biggoted fool, Mithranduir. He could make war between the two good guilds but many some members were in both guilds, Mithranduir was too stupid, and Kuya too kind.
