Chapter 15
(Four)
We watched the demon with its slaves, the large hybrid body guard, and the seemingly normal girl whose function we weren't sure of, a spy of some kind maybe. Five and I followed hand in hand, posing as a couple out shopping. The large number of people made blending in easy, not even the beasts demonic powers could pick us out in all this noise.
The demon made the pretense of being a real girl out shopping with friends, it was obvious even to me looking at her that she had no interest in it. Quite what she hoped to achieve with this charade was beyond me, but then these agents of evil often did things that made no sense.
At one point the three of them split up, the normal girl went off on her own. As always our target kept her protection, the large hybrid, close. Five followed them, while I stayed on the red headed girl.
She stayed in the electronics shop, so I lingered in the hifi section trying to find out what she was up to. Annoying overeager sales assistants kept bothering me, one was so persistent I almost lost my temper and cuffed him. Luckily I was able to focus on my mission and concentrate on the girl. She purchased a cheap mobile phone. Assuming it was for her mistress, this could work to the knights advantage it would be relatively easy to track the demon with moderate accuracy using the device.
