Control

{Lucifer's POV (First person):}

While Ash and Alora were talking, I had gone outside. Not just outside the room, I needed fresh air. I wasn't exactly used to being inside a lot, I grew up being outside a lot, and being inside for long makes me feel, almost trapped in a way. It was a weird feeling, but it was best to ignore it and just get outside when I could. Y'know, we could always go for a bit of a fly. We haven't in a while, and I know you'd enjoy it. Plus, it'd be a nice stretch for your wings.  I heard Reaper chime in after a bit of walking around in silence. Hmm, I guess we could. There's not a whole lot of room down here though, so I can't imagine it'd be very easy to get up higher where it'd be more open. Worth a try though.

I found an area that was open enough that I could get myself a good start, then once in the air I maneuvered my way above the mall itself to be in a more open area. It was a nice day, the sun was out, it wasn't too cold or too windy, and it was the perfect time of day to be out flying. After a bit, I noticed Alora outside the front of the mall, likely looking for me. I landed over by her, making sure to not startle her to much. "Need something?" I asked, tucking my wings back behind me neatly. 

She nodded, and motioned for me to follow back inside. As we headed back to the room, Alora explained that Kit had talked with Tavnora through the dreamscape, and apparently let her know that both her and Fable were in danger, having bee caught by Eris.

I had to convince Tavnora to come with us, cause she was convinced it'd be better if she stayed, since the others probably wouldn't trust her yet. "Yeah, and we need all the help we can get. If Eris is anything like her host, it won't exactly matter who hates who, any and all help is needed. So c'mon, you're coming."

I may or may not have had to use my stricter 'dad voice' on her, but hey, it worked and she agreed. Eventually.

I managed to grab a hold of Moon's negativity, as I figured she knew what happened already and was on her way to try and fight Eris. It was easy enough, and once we got to the woods they were all at, it seemed as if Moon already had things covered. I was impressed. That kid knew how to fight, that was for sure.

We all stood back and away from the fight, just watching in case Moon did end up needing help. As of now, she was definitely fine on her own. But, after a while I did end up stepping in a bit. Eris had a control over both Kit and Fable, I couldn't get both of them out, but with Fable being partially a ghost, I could get her out. I just had to be quiet enough. Luckily for me, it was getting a lot darker out by now, meaning I blended into the shadows almost perfectly.

I made her visible to everyone at first, just to make things easier for later, and while Eris was distracted enough to not be watching fully over Fable's soul, I took my own control over it. That was a fun little thing I learned I could do with ghosts. It's mainly used for those particular souls who seem to never want to listen when trying to get them into their specific afterlives. It seemed to also really help right now too.

While Eris still wasn't paying attention, I brought Fable back over to the others, covering her a bit with my wings to hide her better. I kept my eyes on Moon and Eris, again making sure nothing too badly went wrong and would need us to step in.

Once back over with the others, I had Fable sit down by Ash and Alora, who were sorta hiding behind a tree. "Both of you watch over her, I can't exactly remove the control over her yet cause she'll probably just go back into Eris' control, but I need to keep an eye on the fight." I whispered to them, and they nodded, and I went back over to watch over the fight.
