*A grappling hook latches on to an open windowsill (sp?) and Trilby ends up climbing through, umbrella/grolly in hand. After getting through, he presses a button on the umbrella/grolly and the hook retracts into it. He then dusts off his blazer with his free hand and takes a quick look around the room.*

*Duchess María had another sleepless night. The hauntings had become so severe that she was afraid to fall asleep, out of fear that she might be killed in her sleep.
She was wandering restless around in her haunted castle, dressed in a long, black robe with white lace on it. With her pale skin and golden eyes, she almost looked like a ghost herself. She entered a dusty old attic to look around, when she noticed a familiar face in the half-dark room.*
"Oh crap. Not you again."
*She moaned, her voice sounding as hollow as that of a ghost.*

*Trilby's lips twitch upwards upon her greeting, but he quickly supresses it and adopts a business-like tone.*
"I'm afraid I didn't expect to see you here, madam. May I suggest you go to sleep and forget that we ever met so that I can proceed to grab as many of your valuables as possible?"

*María rolled her eyes.* Good lord, how stupid does he think I am?*On the outside she kept her chill.* "Monsieur. This is a private property. I suggest you leave now, without making any more problems." *She felt her heart twinge in anxiety as she felt Astaroth in the air. She looked pleadingly at Trilby.* "For your own security.... please..... just go."

*Trilby tenses up as his surroundings begin to feel wrong, in more ways than one, and slowly begins backing towards the window.*
"As things are not going according to plan, I shall take my leave... for now."

*Maria froze as a cold gush of polar wind blew through the room, disarraying her long, dark hair and her clothing. Her beautiful, golden eyes looked pleadingly into Trilby's.*
"Please.... hurry.... Don't let him find you....."
*There was a hollow sound coming from the pitch black sky, far above them.*

*Trilby wisely takes the hint and turns to vault out the window, when he realizes the logical fallacy of this plan and climbs out instead*
"I've already gone through one murderous spirit, and I am not facing another one."

*María nodded and watched him disappear in the night. Then she turned around to await the wrath of Astaroth, her own personal demon.*

*A clinking noise is heard as a small vial filled with water rolls around and ends up at María's feet, with a little note attached to it that says 'This holy water may help.' The little trilby symbol is, of course, scrawled on the back.*

*María bent down and found the small vial. When she read the note, she smiled warmly.*
"God bless him, he was a gentleman after all."
*She whispered and hid the vial in her pocket, determined to use it only when there was no other way out.*

*An ice cold wind filled the room, and Astaroth appeared. He grinned evilly by the sight of the trembling little woman in front of him.*
"Hi honey, I'm hoooooome!"
*Evil laughter was echoing through the room.*

*María shuddered when she noticed the creature from Hell coming into the room. He was not using a human shape for her. She didn't even know if he had one. She shut her eyes in frustration.*
"Good lord, not again! What do you want from me this time?"

*Astaroth grinned evilly and placed a bony hand around her waist, pulling her roughly to him. His voice was soft, almost aimiably.*
"Awwww, honey. Don't be like that..... I have a surprise for you. A house guest. He will stay here with you. To keep you company while I am gone...."
*He traced a bony finger across her jawline and lifted her chin so he could look into her eyes.*

*Duchess María backed away from him untill she was standing with her back pressed against the wall. She started hyperventilating again, and her beautiful, golden eyes were filled with tears.*
"I AM NOT YOUR HONEY! FOR GOD'S SAKE.... J-JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!"
*She screamed, hoping that someone would come to her rescue.*

*Astaroth sighed and smiled evilly.*
"As you wish honey. I'll leave you to your thoughts... And to Betelgeuze...."
*And with that, he was gone.*
