Chapter 4: Chapter 3:

Ellie cursed. She looked at the blood dripping from the palm of her hand. Those little rascals were fast. They had such long tails too. They tripped her and disappeared giggling like little demons. She smiled, she was going to miss this when she left. All she had ever known was this church, it's grounds and the people who lived here. Occasionally she escaped to town in the night and sat on the pier watching the sun rise but she didn't dare stay longer or meet anyone there she always had this feeling she was being watched even when she was on her own. She glanced towards the church seeing Asmodious and Miranda looking at her, the look on his face made her feel uneasy it was clear that there was something on his mind causing him pain but she knew he would never say. Ellie looked away and turned to the forest and strode towards it, time to find the little ones she thought. Entering the forest she took care to search from the top of the trees down to the shrubs. She searched deeper and deeper with no sign of them. They were great at hiding there was no way she would find them if they didn't want to be found. The sun was beginning to set so she whistled loudly to summon the little ones. Suddenly three identical boys dropped from the tree tops giggling to themselves.
