Darius knows what he’s talking about. If I’m
so powerful, why don’t I experience it more? Why haven’t I destroyed stuff?”
    “Well,
maybe it’s from your fear of telos that you simply had a power surge. Sometimes mageia can be connected to emotions. It’s important to learn to
control yourself and your mageia . You
have a newly developed power, it can only get stronger from here on out.”
    “We’ll
see, but I still think Darius is full of it.”
    “I
have known Darius a long time. Believe me; he would not be informing you of his
suspicions if he was not entirely certain. The evidence is against you. You
have mageia whether you want it or
not.”
    They
stopped at the field agent office to check for new cases. Agrippa had a file
waiting for them and they returned to the car.
    Demona
flipped the file open on her lap. “There’s no picture.”
    “It’s
as impossible to take an image of a demon as it is a ghost. For one, they are
nearly impossible to capture in a picture. The reason is that if you take an
image of a demon it would only capture the form of the energy. Demons are not
corporeal, they have no body. It’s just concentrated energy that we see, unless
they have taken a human host,” Balen said.

 
    Name: Lilith Ewen
    Age: 173
    Species : Lilitu Demon
    Description: Lilith is extremely beautiful. Her skin
is light with a pinkish tint. Her eyes are amber and her hair is black. She
stands about five foot tall.
    In demon form,
Lilith is heinous, almost unbearable to look at. She stands no higher than
three foot tall. Her eyes are a fiery red and she has patches of white hair
growing at random lengths from her head. She has an unmistakable appearance.
    Other Notes: Lilith is a trickster. Men can be
seduced by one look at Lilith in either appearance; this makes the process of
possession almost instantaneous. All male soldiers are required to wear a
resistance charm when sent on a case involving Lilith. Females are a little
luckier, but Lilith can be very welcoming to the female gender. While in her
human form she can lure in anyone with her charm. Though, in her demon form
women will be repulsed and see her for what she is, making possession more of a
challenge for Lilith. Whatever your gender, Lilith is a deceiver. Do not be
fooled by anything she does!

 
    Lilith sounds
like trouble .
    Demona
flipped through the other pages. She read that Lilith was to be brought in for
failure to register multiple possessions. Some resulted in the death of her
captives, by failed exorcisms. If it were impossible to bring her in alive,
execution was necessary. Under no circumstances was she allowed to escape.
    “Where
is she?” Demona asked.
    “Agrippa
said that there was a call from a witch about an hour ago. He said that he
walked in on a possession,” Balen said.
    “Everything
I’ve heard about demons is bad. Is it true that they follow another type of
being? Do you think this will be dangerous?”
    “Demons
work for a higher power; we don’t call it by any name. It is one that is far
more sinister than any of the dark beings working for TGHC, or those residing
in Terra Hollow. Assignments are always dangerous; you can never be over
prepared. Lilith is good at what she does and many agents have failed to bring
her in, losing their lives in the process.”
    “Who’s
to say we’ll have any more luck?”
    “I
have had a hundred years of field experience. You’re a young vampire who has
developed her mageia earlier than
most. Darius would not have sent us on this assignment if he didn’t think we
could handle it.” Balen turned the car down a desolate road.
    Shivers
ran down Demona’s spine as she looked up at an abandoned building surrounded by
barren trees. The building towered over its surroundings in its forsaken state.
Bricks crumbled across the front and broken windows dotted the entire building.
It had clearly been abandoned for quite some time.
    “I
was right to come prepared. Lilith is still
