My Demons are Worse

The Battle of Vale

The next day Leora goes to grab supplies as I check on Summer. I step into the clinic and the doctor is stood there and smiles seeing me. "Glad to see you remembered. Follow me." He says and he guides me to her room. Inside is very simple but I see Summer lying on the bed asleep. "I fear she may be in a coma. Her aura has been under extreme stress." He says and I sit next to her. I place my hand on her head and give her a portion of my aura. The display updates as it shows her recovering at an accelerated rate. "What did you do?" He asks and I never take my eyes of the sleeping mother. "Gave her the little push she needs to wake up." I state as she begins to stir.

He eyes open and she looks around her room. "Where am I?" She says to no one in particular. "Your safe, that's what" I say and she looks at me. "Who are you?" She says cautiously and I smirk. "A friend to your daughter." Is all I say and her eyes widen. "Ruby!" She yells and goes to get up but stumbles the moment her feet hit the floor. I manage to catch her before she fully falls over. "Easy there Ms Rose, you just woke up, you needn't worry." I say and she just holds me in an attempt to stand. It is now where I notice she too has wolf ears and tail. "Huh, like mother like daughter" I say to myself as I help Summer get her bearings.

"Sir, I would advise her stays here for a few days to recover." The doctor says and I shake my head. "No need to worry. We got a bullhead on the way to pick me and my partner up. We'll take her to the medical facility in Beacon." I say which he can't argue with. I grab Summer's stuff and help escort her to my room at the inn. The door opens as Leora helps Summer inside as I shut the door. She places her in the chair as we sit down on the beds. "Wait. You two are the people that saved me aren't you?" She realises as she looks at me. "Yes we are. Dialon Kahn at your service." I say as Leora smirks. "Leora Of Khanduras. Also known as The Mad Queen of Tristram and The Skeleton Queen" She says and gives a laugh at the end to quick I bonk her on the head.

"T-Thank you" She says whilst tears leak out and I come up next to her. "Hey no problem." I say and hug the woman as she cries into my shoulder. "Leora, can you go run her a bath whilst I sort out her clothes and whatnot." I say and Leora picks up Summer and brings her to the bathroom. Once the door closes I use Hellfire to dry my coat and look over Summer's gear. I use demonic energy to repair any damages and to reinforce the clothing to make it better for protection. The door opens and Leora steps out. "She'll be fine for the moment." I nod and go back to inspecting her equipment.

After a minute Leora cuts through the awkward silence. "Dialon, I got to ask, between you and me... who is the older 'sibling'?" She says with quotations on sibling and I give a chuckle. "Well, in terms of age I would say you... but maturity, I would say me." I say as she looks at me with an insulted look. "Are you calling me immature?!" She yells which makes me laugh. "No, just that in most occasions you not that very level headed." I say trying to calm down the anger Undead Queen. "Really, need I remind you of your episode yesterday." She says which I pinch the bridge of my nose. "I didn't know I could do that okay, remember I have 3 lords of hell infused to my soul" I say which she goes to retort but stops. "Yeah... I guess your right. Big Brother" she says with a smirk at the end which makes me sigh in slight annoyance.

The bathroom door opens and Summer pops her head out. "Um, hate to be a bother but could I get some clothes." She says and I grab her gear and give it to her. "There you go, all patched up." I say and she thanks me. She closes the door and comes back out in her full repaired attire. "Now then we should head to the Rendezvous point, The bullhead will be here any minute." I say as we walk to the drop off point, though Summer still requires a bit of help so I help her walk through the streets.

As we approach the bullhead swoops down and the door opens with Professor Ozpin stood at the door. He sees us and notices Summer as his eyes widen. We enter the bullhead and it takes off towards Beacon. "Summer, is that you?" Ozpin asks not believing his own eyes. "Yes, it's me professor" she says with a faint smile. "I assume that your return is because of the actions of Team MYTH." He says as he calms himself and I nod. "Yeah, turns out the high Grimm activity was because Tall, Dark and Brooding's domain is there protected by an illusionary barrier. We managed to get through it and rescue her." I say and he nods. "Did you encounter her?" And Leora takes it from there. "Indeed She did, considering I was demolishing the interior of her castle to reach an exit whilst Dialon had Summer." She says chuckling to herself. "I will add that she never saw Summer and doesn't know we are with you. She does know that I possess Diablo and Mephisto. She would have known more until Leora used her hammer like a golfer and driver her deep into her castle."
