“Acheron go wake up your sister we have training to do.” Azazel commanded as he ate some of his food.

            “Why do I have to? Who cares if she misses training?”

            Sharp pain flashed across his face followed by warm liquid, Acheron wiped the blood off and glared at his father before teleporting to the door to his sister’s room. He banged on it sharply with his fist. “Pandora wake up! We have to train now!”

            He paused and waited for the door to open, when nothing happened he teleported inside to find it completely empty. “Pandora? Where are you?”

            No response, he growled and checked to make sure she wasn’t anywhere else before finally giving up and going back to his father.

            “Where’s your sister?” Azazel asked.

            “How should I know she isn’t in her room, if you care about using her power to our advantage go find her your self.”

            Azazel teleported in front of him and slapped him across the face. “Do not lie to my face!”

            “I’m not!” Acheron snapped, which only rewarded him another smack.

            “Never use that tone with me. I am your father and superior on this ship and you will treat me like one! In fact the only person you have any influence over is Angel do you understand? Otherwise you take orders from anyone.”

            Riptide smirked from where he was steering the ship but turned back around when Azazel sent him a murderous glare. “Find something funny?”

            “No… just thinking.”

            “I didn’t realize that was possible.”

            “Shut up.”

            Emma wandered in and sighed. “Boys, boys stop fighting we have to work together here.”

            “Aren’t you supposed to be showing the new girl around?” Azazel asked.

            “She is.” Angel shot back as she walked in behind Emma.

            “Well then how about a brake from the tour to train with Acheron considering Pandora isn’t here and Shaw wants them to train?”

            “Yeah the traitor… Wait until I go drag her back here.” Acheron took out his knife and ran his finger along the blade, leaving a live of crimson.

            “Fine I’ll train with him… looks like a nice challenge.” Angel smiled and walked over to his side.

            “Too bad you don’t look like much yet.” Acheron replied coldly. “No one here can defeat me.”

            “Don’t be so cocky when you don’t even know my powers.”

            Archeron cleaned his knife blade before putting it away and grabbed Angel’s wrist. “Then let’s go see what you’ve got.”

            He teleported them to the deck and walked a few feet away while Angel regained her bearings. “On the boat? What if we destroy it?”

            “It won’t matter we’re moving to a submarine later. In fact we’d be doing Shaw a favor to get rid of it.” Acheron started to make his pupils glow golden. “Now fight me.”

            Angel made her wings come off her skin and started to fly up but when she looked into her opponent’s gaze she felt the paralyzing sensation of fear. Then he disappeared from his spot and reappeared in the air behind her with his dagger in his tail and his arms wrapped around her neck. Acheron teleported again into the water, which stained red slightly as the cut on his face reopened; it stung as salt got into it but he ignored the pain and focused on strangling his opponent. He was about to deliver a shallow cut to her neck to show he won, he couldn’t kill the new teammate obviously, but pain shot through his arm and forced him to let go and teleport to the deck. Angel appeared flying out of the water a few moments later and shot another acid spitball at him. Their session continued like that for awhile, Acheron toyed with her for awhile to see what she was capable of but eventually got tired and finished the fight by making her pass out with fear.

            “Are we ready to switch ship yet I’m bored.” He complained.

            “Yes, Shaw is bringing it now.” Emma replied.

            Acheron sighed impatiently before Shaw finally got the submarine and they were all on board. Shaw looked back at the Hellfire Club and grinned. “Time to disappear and finish our plans.”

            “I like the sound of that.” Riptide smirked.
