Mortem laid down, staring up at the roof of the cage, he started thinking about how many days, months, or even years they will keep them trapped in that cage. His thinking was soon interrupted by Night standing just outside the cage, did something change about her? Her hair looked a bit darker than usual.She opened the cage and walked over to Mortem, for some reason a chill went up his spine.
"Are you okay? Did they hurt you?"Mortem asked.
Night ignored him and went over to Jake who was muttering to himself.
"Yes, she's evil."
"No she's not."
"Pretty people are always evil."
"You can't judge everyone for one person's actions."
Jake continued rambling on, if Mortem could facepalm, he certainly would. Night walked back toward Mortem and knelt down in front of him.
"You know it isn't really me sweetie, I'm something much darker, and much more powerful than you"
Mortem stared at her, furious.
"WHAT DID YOU DO WITH NIGHT?!"
"Well, according to Amare, she will wake up in her bed, thinking your whole adventure was just a dream, she won't be a demon, she won't think you, Jake, Tesla or Terra, were even real."
Mortem tried to stay calm.
"If you aren't Night, then what are you?"
"Shadow of course, sounds much better than Night in my opinion."
Mortem noticed the knife in her hand and feared for the worst.
"If you're going to kill me, why haven't you done it already?"
Shadow didn't answer, she was too busy looking at the markings on the walls, one was a spell to exorcise a demon, another was to trap them.Mortem was muttering something under his breath.
"You tricky bastard."
Shadow snapped Mortem's chains and stabbed his foot. Mortem cried out in pain, searching for a weapon to defend himself. Shadow picked up Mortem and threw him into the center of the room. Mortem started running toward her but was met with some sort of an invisible wall. He looked up at the ceiling.
"Devil's trap." Muttered Mortem.

Yes, I've been watching too much supernatural.

"Why would a place full of demons have a devil's trap?"Mortem muttered once again.
Shadow started chanting the exorcism spell, Mortem twitched horrendously.
Jake stopped talking to himself and kicked Shadow in the leg.
"Hey!"Shouted Shadow, interrupting the spell.
"Eh, I guess I could keep him alive for a while longer."
