Deadly Kiss.

Turquoise Dreams.

This time, Asher was paired with Angel Dust.

The scenery was of another dark wooded area, except shadows came and went without so much as a glance at Asher. Their objective for this test was to either survive until the timer ran out, or to locate and disable Vaggie. No killing, which was a relief for Asher.

Angel and Asher walked through the woods side by side, every so often Asher attempting to dip her hands into the pockets of a trench coat that was missing from her person.

"I hate not having my coat or hat." Asher grumbled, chosing to instead fidget with the rings on her hands.

"Yeah well, Charlie and Alastor both seem adamant that you lose both of them unless you're actually out in public." Angel commented, smiling down at his friend.

What they weren't aware of however, was Alastor silently using the shadows to follow them and watch their progress as Charlie had asked. Asher had more than proved herself worth being able to protect herself and the hotel come extermination time, but she wanted someone to witness it first hand without actually being her enemy or partner in the middle of the fray.

"Just wait, as soon as I get used to it they'll make me burn both articles so I can't hide in public." Asher joked.

Angel laughed, before agreeing with her. "Probably, that seems to be their style. Well, Charlie's anyways. Smiles is just Smiles." He shrugged.

"He's just here for entertainment. I've met his kind before." Asher comments, but doesn't elaborate.

"Ten minutes, and we haven't been attacked once." Angel says smugly, secretly disappointed he didn't get to see Asher's demonic disposition.

Asher was grateful for the lack of fighting, as switching forms always made her hungry. Hungry for things Charlie didn't approve of.

When the time was down to seven minutes, Asher is attacked by Vaggie.

The white haired female tackles Asher and pins the staff of her spear against the Doe's throat, a smirk playing on her lips.

Asher snarls before kicking and bucking until she's able to get Vaggie off of her, throwing the female into a nearby tree.

As she does this, she catches sight of a familiar looking shadow, and knows instantly she's being watched. This makes her ears furrow.

Vaggie attacks and catches Asher off guard, so the black and white haired female snaps her scythe into existence, using the grip of it to block her hit.

Asher's eyes glow gold and she quickly puts distance between herself and Vaggie, Angel firing warning shots at the female to distract her.

He succeeded, and Asher quickly half morphed into her smaller more demonic form, cracks of gold connecting to the freckles on her body, and the names on her stomach. Her scythe goes from turquoise to gold, and she slashes at Vaggie.

Vaggie dodges it skillfully, and jabs Asher with the head the scythe. Asher zaps out of the way of the scythe before it could hit her and she round house kicks the white haired female in the back, forcing her onto her hands and knees.

Vaggie goes to stand up, but Asher presses her boot clad foot onto the back of her head, forcing her to faceplant into the mud. Asher lays the blade of her scythe against the base of Vaggie's throat with a growl. "Yield." The black and white haired female demanded, eyes flashing red before going back to pure gold.

Vaggie huffed and released her spear, holding her hands up. "I yield."

Asher let her staff dissipate and leaned down, grabbing Vaggie's face with clawed digits with a purr. "Bonne fille."

And with that they were brought out of the false reality and Asher helped Vaggie up.
