once more, then I'll be in. James kicked as hard as he could.

[Justice knight]

Lucifer nodded.
"Anything you would like me to do my Queen?"

[The-Shadow-One]

The door caved in, It hung off the hinges
---
The Queen shook her head. "No. you are dismissed. But tell no-one of this!" She said waving Lucifer away.

[Justice knight]

"Of course my Queen," Lucifer said.

[cowleyj]

haha. Cool.James went down the stairs.

[Musicman247]

"So I guess I'm supposed to kill you for what you just made me do," Steven said with a shrug.

[Kerr]

Hastur's face flushed. "What?" said Hastur.

[Justice knight]

Lucifer left the room.
"Now what do I do?" He muttered.

[Musicman247]

"Why else would a creepy skeleton man show up right when you were doing whatever your were doing to me and give me a knife? You must be the enemy at my side, like the parchment says." Steven turned the knife over in his hand.

[Kerr]

"Steven stop. This isn't funny." said Hastur.

[cowleyj]

Spoiler:

cool. Go on stevie, shank him.

[Musicman247]

"I'm sorry, but I need to be careful. This is my first time out with anyone in a long time, and look what happens! Jack Skelington shows up when I'm making out with you, which I would not do on my own, and gives me knife. What else am I supposed to think?" Steven was just repeating himself now, not really wanting to take a life. But he would if he had to. He held the knife out toward Hastur.

[Kerr]

Hastur stood up and backed away. "Steven think about this. I know you don't really want to kill someone." said Hastur.

[Justice knight]

Spoiler:

KILL HIM!!!!
I kid, I kid

[Musicman247]

Steven's face looked pained, "But you did that...with the kissing...and the naked...and the...you're a guy!"

[Kerr]

"You were having a dream. You muttered something about Lucy and then started moving around. I swear." said Hastur.

[Musicman247]

"Don't try to confuse me!" Steven shouted. "I've never done that before. Why would I suddenly start unless it was a spell it something. Maybe Yog got inside me or something. I don't know how all this works." Steven got down from the bed and walked toward Hastur. "I'm sorry, but I can't take chances." He drew the knife backwards, preparing to strike.

[Kerr]

Hastur tried to dodge the blade.

[Musicman247]

Steven watched as Hastur dodged a stab that never came. His face grew sad and he dropped the knife.

[Kerr]

Hastur was cowering in fear next to the door.

[Musicman247]

"I can't do it." Steven said. "You might as well do what you were going to do to me because I can't go through with it. Go on. Kill me." Steven fell to his knees, head down.

[Kerr]

"Kill you? Why would I do that?" asked Hastur, his eyes red with tears.

[Musicman247]

"I don't know, but none of this is making sense!" Steven cried.

[The-Shadow-One]

Spoiler:

OH JUST DO IT ALREADY!
Or let me use phase 2!

James
The stairs lead outside, Around the building was a stair exoskeleton.

[Kerr]

"I would never kill you. You're the only friend I have...." said Hastur. He was sitting next to the door.
