Drake woke up yawning, he wasn't sure how long he had slept, he couldn't honestly remember the last time he had slept. It felt like he had just woken up from a coma though, hibernation. He felt completely recharged. Drake sat up looking around letting his brain register where he was for the time being, he remembered that he was on a boat. With ghost, and a guy possessed by an angel. Looking to his side he saw Maria there, she seemed like she was out of it. He decided to let her sleep and got out of the bed, he walked out the little guest room.

Sareena: Awake finally?

Drake looked over Sareena was sitting on the couch, she had taken her sling off "How's your arm?" he asked her, she moved it a few times.

Sareena: Healed but still sore...won't be doing anything to crazy with it...

"Well at least you're feeling better..." he said nodding to her, Drake walked out on the deck and looked around. The ocean looked nice, though the sea air was getting to him a bit. He looked over seeing land not too far from there. Drake wondered how long they had been sailing, he wasn't even sure if Rhode was the one sailing the ship or if his ghost friends were. He never bothered to ask.

Voice: Knew you'd be here soon enough

Drake turned around someone landed on the ship. It was Alastor he cracked his neck walking over to Drake "You knew I would come back" Drake said to him "I told you I would when I finished up with Mephisto" He added. Alastor smirked at him.

Alastor: Yeah I know...glad you did though, just had to put out a fire involving one of the Samael's generals. If we're going to attack Baal, now would be the time

"Fine, seems like you have a plan. Lets here it" Drake said to him.

Tren had been upon the deck practicing his barriers again when Drake strode out onto the deck. A shadow passed over Tren and landed on the deck. He got up ready for an attack but it turned out to be the Alastor guy Drake had been talking about. His brother, if all things were correct. He didn't have a habit of trusting demons but couldn't help to start off pleasant.

"So this is the illustrious Alastor then? Names Tren Pendragon, and Drake's told us a little bit about you. Long lost brother and all. I am curious too as to how we are going to get close enough to Ba'al and make him kick the bucket too," said Tren standing up and walking over to them. He then looked to Drake for a moment. "You sure know how to sleep don't you, figure I wouldn't wake you on the account of what Maria said about you not having gotten much sleep recently. The ghost cook is pretty good by the way, almost wished I could get me one of them. Almost."

He was feeling more at ease near their presence now, but it still seemed off to have souls lingering here in the mortal realm. It couldn't be helped now he knew.

“So we’re about 15 miles from shore, according to these charts.” Rhode said.

If they’re accurate, correct. Without your GPS or Radar it’s hard to judge. Your basically exploring this territory all over again. Also, there’s no telling how the Demons might have changed this place.

“Well, i guess we’ll find out in a while. I’m slowing us down to half speed. Price, have Hudson on the lookout for anything we might get grounded on will you? We’re getting close to shore and i don’t want to smash my boat on a rock, or log or sunken ship ok?”

“Aye Lad. he’s already down in the bow hold, checking the waters.” Price said from where he stood on the bridge, looking through a ghostly pair of binoculars out at the horizon.

At that moment, Frobisher poked his head up through the deck plates and announced. “Hey, there’s like, an intruder on board eh? Aft deck. Doesn’t look like one but i get the feeling he’s one of dem der demons eh.”

But…

“The wards. How’d he get past Rin’s ward?” Rhode checked his carryall to make sure Starshatter was in there, then grabbed the Remington rifle off the bridge bulkhead and headed aft. “Price, the boats your’s. bring us in nice and easy.”

“Aye lad.” Price said, putting his binoculars away and grabbing the ships wheel.

Alastor turned around when he heard Tren say his name. He looked at the guy for a second before turning back to Drake.

Alastor: You have a habit of keeping pure beings as company Drake. You should learn to break that habit soon...

Alastor smirked Drake crossed his arms "Yeah I don't see that happening, I keep people near me I trust, human, demon or angel...I take it you do the same though am I right" he asked Alastor laughed a bit before turning back to Tren.

Alastor: Seems me and my brother have more in common than I thought. Yes I am Alastor. Hmm I guess he doesn't want to make me blush. I am Baal's general, and yes I do have a plan about his entire shit basket you are about to be in

Drake walked around Alastor so he could face both him and Tren at the same time. "Then please do share bro, we're all ears here" He said to Alastor who smirked at his brother.

Alastor: As I said I just put out a fire with Samael's general. I believe you know her umm agent Fury is what you call her. Anyway, they just started a war with one another. Baal on one side and Samael on the other, and you

"Right in the middle" Drake said "I get what you're saying, we let them go at it, then attack Baal when he least expects it" Drake said "I take it most of his army will be busy preparing for this war, it will give us the perfect chance to strike" Drake finished saying, Alastor pointed at him

Alastor: See this is why I like you much more than our other brothers. You get shit, you really take after dad when it comes to this you know...ol' Satan would be proud

Drake took a deep breath just having had his theory about his father confirmed. "Tell me how long will this take?" He asked Alastor.

Alastor: Well if you guys want to take this boat around the river we'll get back to my base. Then the party can really begin.

"Sounds like a good idea if we end up having a choice," said Tren not minding letting demons fight demons as long as it wasn't involving his friends. He wasn't surprised Alastor didn't necessarily like that he had an angelic blade, especially from a demon hunting family. He was one of Ba'als generals which meant it was one less they would have to face when they actually went onto the assault.

"If Samael attacks and you are Ba'als general won't that mean you'll have to defend Ba'al? I would be a shame if you were to die during that war not that you aren't strong enough to withstand it but as with any battle there's always a chance one could die," said Tren wondering if it was such a good idea when looked at from that angle.

"Means might be able to get some more training before we hit the demon over lord?" said Tren looking out to the distant land, before turning back to them. "Fury had a skirmish with them and we fought Death finding out he was a throne. I suppose if Samael has those forces you'll want to be careful if you do have to Alastor."

Rhode checked his rifle to make sure it was loaded and racked the bolt. He finished headed down the steps into the lounge and headed outside.

Rhode came out onto the aft deck pointing his Remington at Alastor. “Hey. Who the frack are you and how’d you get on board my boat.”

Why do you always lead with mortal weapons? If he’s a demon you’re going to need a lot more bullets.

Alastor crossed his arms and looked at Tren when the question about what he was going to do during the war as given to him.

Alastor: I'm not Baal's personal body guard, I'm a general I'll be out on the field. I don't care about Samael winning as much as I don't care about Baal winning, so I'll fight like I always do

"With that being said, I'm guessing you won't be joining us in actually getting to Baal's castle then if and when this attack by Samael forces happen" Drake said to Alastor, since it would seem Alastor would be put on the field.

Alastor: If I have to fight Samael's forces I will, I can't leave my soldiers out there to die. Don't worry though I'm sure you can handle Baal easily enough brother

Drake sighed some "Why do I get the feeling you're not telling us everything?" Drake asked him. Alastor shrugged about this. He turned back to Tren when talked about Fury and Death.

Alastor: Yeah I already knew Death was a Throne, we have...history

"Take it you two weren't the closest of friends" Drake said to Alastor who nodded, "Alright so we'll head back to your hide out, where I guess Tren needs to get some training in. We can plan our attack from there" Drake said to the two of them that's when they heard Rhode come down and point his gun at Alastor. Alastor didn't make any movements.

Alastor: Didn't know you had other people on this boat...well, I'm Alastor. Drake's older brother. And I sorta flew to the boat, I can fly, I'm a demon. Oh and if you wondering, yes the wards are working, its just I'm a pretty high level demon...they don't affect me as much

"If you've dealt with a Throne then I want to see what you can do, if we have time I'd like to train with you," said Tren putting a hand on his neck and cracking it. "One of the best ways I find preparing yourself is to fight someone stronger than you, and generally if they are friendly it ends up being a lot less deadly."

"On the other hand, if you get called to the field I'll understand if you don't have time for that, and indeed we might not get much time to train anyways while we are there," said Tren looking at Rhode as he shows up pointing his gun. Alastor explains how he got here, and Tren looks to the side of the boat to see glowing wards in the side of the boat that hadn't been there before. Definitely Japanese looking.

"I keep hearing about Drake's brothers. He seems human enough to me, and that makes me assume people like you are older than him. Why is he heir to the throne over the rest of his brothers and how many does he have? I mean at this point I wouldn't be surprised if he's related to all the Primes with how his family keeps popping up here and there,"
said Tren cracking a smile before crossing his arms.

Rhode squinted at Alastor. He hesitated for a moment, then lowered his rifle. “Well Drake’s brother Alastor, welcome aboard the Huron II

By welcoming him, you’ve disabled the wards for him. Any advantage they might have given us in a fight is now null.

Rhode slung the rifle on his shoulder and leaned against the bulkhead. “Does Ba’al have any kind of weakness? like go for the eyes or anything? Not saying i don’t enjoy a good fight,”

You don’t

“But I find the longer you let some guy fight the longer he has a chance to kill you. Myself, i’ve always been a fan of the sucker punch. Just roll in and clobber the other guy before he has a chance to even think about you but you demons don’t play with the same deck of cards we do. Hard to know where to punch.”

Maria laid there sleeping until her phone rang. She sighed reaching for it, who the hell would be calling her while they were in the dark zone. "Hello..." She said groggy "Anthony? No I don't know exactly where we are...give me a minute I'll go see if Drake knows" she said getting up and starting to get dressed.

___

Alastor looked at Tren when he bought up fighting a throne and wanting to train with him.

Alastor: Haven't trained anyone in a long time, not even Drake here. But if we have time I'll show you how to hit a throne where it hurts...

Alastor turned to Rhode when he welcomed him on the ship. He bowed feeling the wards power over him diminish, he could feel his full strength returning. When he asked about Baal's weakness Alastor smirked.

Alastor: Physically he has none, he's a demon of war. He's honed all his combat abilities and is destructively powerful...but mentally he's not strong. He's not the tactician like his brothers, he's a brute you can outsmart him. Get him angry and he'll fuck up, then overwhelm him with numbers...its our best bet

"You've studied him I see" Drake said to Alastor. Alastor looked at Drake and nodded.

Alastor: I've had years to. And to answer your question Tren, its because Drake has a direct connection to this plain of existence. He is the first successful attempt that our father had at putting his power in a human vessel that still has a soul. Drake has the potential to bridge the gap between hell and earth. And let our father out of his prison, oh and he has 665 older brothers and sisters. Most of which are dead.

"Great, so I'm a walking skeleton key" Drake said to Alastor who laughed "Its not that funny seriously. I keep having dreams about opening the hell gates. All of them...at once. And I think I can do it" Drake said to him Alastor looked at him and shrugged. "Drake" Maria said causing Drake to turn around. "Whats up?" He asked her "You got a phone call" she said handing him the phone. Alastor smirked and bowed at Maria.

Alastor: Princess

"Alastor" She said smirking. Drake shook his head and walked away "Hey Anthony, yeah we're in the dark zone...umm I'd say east...I think we're going to head to Alastor's hide out. When we get there I'll get you directions. Alright see ya then" Drake said hanging up.
