Pendant of pain

James, she sighed deeply, wondering what it was that she wanted. She had not read any meaning into the sex that they had in her office the other day.

To her, it was just a casual fling, as she felt attracted to him that day and also that that that was probably what he wanted, now seeing sneak up to her today made her wonder.

"About the other the other day in your office ,  I was thinking. Because you did not say anything to me afterwards I don't know how you feel about it, but as for me Tiffany, I feel we need to be an item, I am so into you that i cannot get enough of you " James stated pouring his heart.

Tiffany sighed. "Look James. I'd be plain with you, the truth is that I like the fact that we are just friends, yesterday was just a one time thing, and I doubt that it would ever happen again between us. As a matter of fact, I'm interested in someone else.. you are just not my type of man, I mean no offense tho." She replied also pouring out her heart to him.

At this point, James just stood at a point speechless. His eyes where filled with tears but he tried as much as possible to control them from falling down.

He had been reading the wrong meaning into everything that had been happening all these while. And it just dawned on him that she was not really interested in him. He got his head in his mind wondering what he had really been doing to himself.

Tiffany felt pity for him as she looked at him, maybe she should not have said what she had said the way she said it, she probably should have petted the words and use less straightforward ones. She thought of apologizing to him, but then on a second thought she knew that the deed had already been done, apologizing at this point could make her look stupid.

So she just stood at a fixed point staring at James as she cleared her throat.

James had to put himself together. Then he said; "well, I just came to inform you that everyone's home home, we where actually given the chance to go home whenever we wanted for today. So I thought I should come and tell you, so that you won't be left out." 

Tiffany smiled as James turned to leave.

"Detective." She called out.  Then he stopped and turned around weakly wondering what it was that she had to say again. 

"It's not as if I don't like you. I do, I really do. I mean you a a very good person. Its just that I have someone already...  I'm sorry for.. uhm well that's all." She stated.

James sighed deeply wondering what she meant by 'she had some one already'  ever since he had been with her he had not heard her call or seen her with any other guy that seemed to be in a relationship with her.

But either way, he had to respect her decisions. "It's okay. I have taken note." He replied as he walked out of her lab.

Tiffany Sighed....

"Raaaaaat!!!" Magedon shouted in pain from inside of the sheriff's body. Divina had finished the concussion that she as mixing and had burnt it hard to form a solid substance which she put on a rope in form of a pendant and placed accross the sheriff's neck.

"Please take this off, it really hurts. I promise to tell you everything you need to know ." Magedon cried out in pain staring at Divina who seemed to be busy mixing up another concussion other than listening to him.

He felt like coming out of the sheriff's body in other to be relieved of the pain, but he thought that if he does that, he might be caught and may not be able to enter into the body again. Which meant that Lucifer would be free to do what ever he wanted to him without having the restraint that he was having now about killing the Sheriff.

He compared the two scenorios and concluded that it was better he remained in the body and face whatever pain the pendant was inflicting on him - but the pain was so unbearable - so he thought of a way to cut a deal with Lucifer.

"Oh, I see that you Like the body that you are in, so much so that you do not want to come out of it despite all the pain you feel. Well just wait until Divina finishes the next pendant, that body would be your home forever." Lucifer stated giggling.

Magedon's heart skipped a beat. He was sure that Lucifer could relate to what Divina was doing, because he was the one that gave power to the witches, even when Divina had her gang of witches, they still needed to pay sacrifices to Lucifer in hell in order to increase their power every year.

"Wait.... Wait I am going to tell you everything you need to know, but please, promise me that  you would let me go after I answer your question." Magedon pleaded, trying as much as he could to endure the kind of pain that the pendant was inflicting on his soul. It seemed to be made up of an anti-demon concussion.

He had come to earth to enjoy and not to pass through all these sufferings, so he was willing to tell them what they wanted to know in other to get his freedom. He was willing to do whatever it takes. After all, he was no longer interested in hell's politics or leadership affairs.

"Alright, go ahead and talk I'd let you go. Where is my sword?" Lucifer asked. 

"I'd tell you. I did not destroy it. But it's somewhere, it's in the heart of the demon's chamber. No one can get it without being caught. Not even I can access it without being questioned. But I am your only shot at getting it.. so let me go please." Magedon pleaded.

As he was yet talking, Klaus ran into the apartment arriving from hell.

"And who said that you where our only shot at getting the sword?" Lucifer asked smirking. 

"I'd get it, whichever way I want." He added.
