I scanned around, but I couldn't see Keri or Lizy anywhere. The Demons were trying to crowd around me, but I was taller than most.
Everyone was talking at once, but I didn't have time for this. I started to push the people out of my way, and then my hand hit an object that wouldn't move.
I looked down and groaned. My hand was stopped by an old woman's face that my hand was trying to push through.
"Do you mind?" The old woman asked me with narrowed eyes as she turned to me and pushed my hand back as she did.
Great, a little old Demon lady, ugh. She even looked like the light blue version of Nixi!
I pulled my hand back quickly. I remembered my talk with Jilly before getting to Mex's Keep; I didn't want to start things with this old batty.
"Sorry, but did you see where my two girls went?" I asked, and the woman looked at me blankly.
"I ate them," the woman said, and everyone around her went quiet, and my hair started to raise with my anger.
