Souls Lost on Black Tides [WoD]

@Sigyn @Trickster Queen


"Well, this is supposed to be classified stuff...but it's not like you're gonna blab to anyone. Right?" Sword motioned over to the door with his hand. "This guy is some kind of criminal, and the people dealing with him sent him here. I've got no idea why they don't just lock him up...but if this is really the guy who caused that asylum breakout...I'm guessing they already tried that and it blew up in their faces. Don't ask me what the master is supposed to do with 'im. I got no clue myself." Sword sounded like he had picked up a bit of information somehow, and most he likely heard about it from the person who took Ramesses' call to request entrance to the manor. "I don't need to worry about you as much when I've got to deal with a dangerous and probably insane criminal mastermind over here. He takes priority. You're a doctor. This guy is a murderer...I think. I don't even know why he was locked up, to be honest and I don't give a shit. I'm just gonna make sure he stays put until Orfeo's ready to see him."





A woman walked down towards the foyer, exiting from one of the sitting rooms on the right. She just left after having a meeting with Orfeo. Her heels clicked loudly on the floor as she made her way to the door. It was a bit strange that so many people were awake and active in the manor when it was around 1AM. Though, besides those guests on the 2nd Floor and Orfeo, it seemed like everyone else was asleep.





"Goodnight everyone." She chirped out from below.


"Night, Laurie." Sword waved to her from the top floor and snapped his fingers. Another servant, a large bulky man the size of a football player, came from the shadows underneath the stairs and opened the door in the middle of the foyer for her. She exited out towards the garage to fetch her car.

Saede gave the woman a blank stare, rapidly losing the confidence she had entered with. ..Did she not care? What was going on? Savaging the opportunity, the schoolgirl makes a desperate attempt to get a glance at the co-ordinates, which she found herself somehow able to read. What was going on here? ..Was it connected to her past? "Ah.. I'm so sorry.." She stammers, unsure how to excuse herself after such an intrusion; stalling as she read the numbers. "I certainly don't want word of this getting to the 'authorities,' now would I? ...Please.. Allow this moment to be forgotten. I.. I was never here." Saede quickly backs out of the room, closing the door and pushing part of her hair back with her hands. ..Damn, that didn't go as expected.. She doubted they would be so merciful if she tried to enter a third time.. No, that wasn't the answer at all.
 
Robbert fell on the deck of his ship as the waves bombarded him. The pirate mocking him and tempting him with the vague hope of his wife down below in the bowels of his ship. He looked from the hatch to his enemy. Part of him wanted to rush down there and hold her in his arms, but he had to temper that feeling for a rational thought. This had to be a trick, it was too easy to just let him have what he wanted, his shadow was not the type to give him what he wanted. There was also the fact that if he went down there with his enemy still alive he could well just trap him down in his own ship, but still.... Robbert stood up and said. "Aye, I will be taking what I want..." He then turned to slash at the pirate, "Once everyone who can take her away again is out of my way!"

  • Aviana flipped the first card over; The Fool. Hm...new beginning huh? That could be good. She flipped the second card to show the Lovers in reverse. Communication issues? Odd, maybe the last card will shed some more light. As she reached for the last card there was a shuffling behind her.


    "Aviana, are you okay hun? We are opening shop soon. Are you sure your up for work today?" Merlot's voice was easily heard behind the cloth door, concern evident in her voice. "It is a Monday and you know how they go, so if you want to go get a check-up we can hold down the fort."


    "As if. I'll be just fine, I'm a tough cookie. I'm not going to let some silly little bug take me down." Ava laughed, a tone full of confidence. "Don't worry so much. This gorgeous body can handle much more than you think."


    "Yeah yeah yeah." Ava could just hear her sisters eyes roll. "Just don't push yourself too much 'kay?"


    "Sure, sure" The redhead dismissed, going back to the reading once Merlot left. She turned back to her table So Fool, reversed Lovers, and now....the upright Emperor. After she flipped the card, she examined it. 'Stability and control. I need to take charge of the situation.’ She looked over the three cards. New possibilities that I need to consider. I need to keep my head on straight while it happens. Interesting...


    Finished with her reading, Aviana put the cards back and closed the old box that held them. She stood up and moved back into the greeting area just as Persephone was tying open the flap to the entrance. The room had been set up properly, the music was playing, and the ladies were ready. Here's to a prosperous day.


    Against her wishes, the day had not be prosperous. Not many people had visited since their opening, but the girls stayed as cheerful as they could; their livelihood depended on it.

A lapse in time, where everything the eye meets could distort into a blur to focus on one sole goal. A moment like this happened very few times unless one experienced extraordinary sights to marvel at every day. Xanthus' hues for example, while they were not extraordinary alone, were still captivated by the beauty of one woman that lingered just down the hall. She was a vivid example of personified innocence, if he had to label her as anything at all. Even just from the first meeting like this, he had to let his sight linger a few moments longer... he had to memorize this face as she could potentially be the girl he was brought to this very mansion to meet with. Could she be the very soul bound to his fate by that demon's desire to see her end?

@Sigyn

For now, it was too soon to approach her and much too early to gauge whether this girl was indeed his target or now. Instead, the blue-haired detective switched in a spin on his heels to the direction he was now intending, to go across the connecting hallway towards another flight of stairs which would bring him downstairs and onto the first floor to begin his adventuring scavenge for knowledge in this abyss of a mansion. What a luxurious Wonderland to be trapped within, no? Grandiose euphemisms aside, the Manor truly was a splendid place and it must have taken a lot of resources and time to build it. But with any great building, secrets must lie just beneath it's surface.

Thankfully for Xanthus, he had plenty of time to explore around in the darkness of the night, having obtained all the necessary rest that he needed to in order for him to remain activity - a powerful nap in the pique of an hour, who could say they managed that? The building's lights were most likely kept either off or dim since it was so far into the night and whilst Xanthus did want to get familiar with each and every inch of the household - one room caught his eye in particular: The Library.

And oh what a library it was, walls upon walls were stacked with an array of books at least 2 stories high - from occupations, phone books, novella and historical scripts - hell there had to be at least four renditions of the bible on one of the shelves. He could feel half of himself just think this was all a waste of time and that these books were scraps for the dogs but Xanthus in his fuller sight of it all knew what lay beneath every page - a treasure trove of boundless knowledge fit for discovery.

There were a few individuals still up at this time of the night as well, though they seemed to be more on the strange side, they wore red and black clothing with draconic symbols lined into the fabric and dragon masks. Honestly if he didn't think they were already weird than the locked shelf towards the center surely would have sold it for him. It was quite well secured and while it begged some means of investigation, Xanthus didn't wish to go through the trouble just yet. He'd make use instead of the books near him - being content to read some of the more common issues for about two hours...

tumblr_nr56yblv221uasiybo1_500.gif


Which by the time he had finished, he'd have skimmed through a small stack of books, finding some amusing information kept within and even some rather rare finds. One book in particular while it wasn't exactly a hard to find book alone, was of a difficult vintage -- a pre-print Dante's Inferno. Now there was a chapter for the ages, such a gruesome tale and yet all the more delectable to read a few passages from whilst Xanthus had the time. He'd have to ask where whomever had gotten it, had found such an acutely sought after volume. Another question for another time.

It was onto the next location of business, slipping himself free from the Library but swearing to return to it to find out whatever was inside of that locked off section within the middle - it had to be something good right? Xanthus could feel his greed nailing eagerly in his heart but he had to be attentive to his duties and keep on exploring while avoiding any trouble that may come his way. Though that was hardly an issue seeing as right after the Library, an idea had popped inside of the man's mind and a recollection to the world he fell into inside of his dreams resurfaced again.

What if he were to bring himself into the Astral for a while? Why, he hadn't attempted such a thing but he knew it was quite possible - it would definitely take a large portion of the time he had though, was he really okay with offering up the time to take a chance and keep exploring? The memories of that face, his face.. kept coming back to hit him over and over in his head and he knew that this was the right answer. Where would he go anyway? There had to be some part of the building with enough of a silence to allow him to think and meditate.

Yet as he began to walk he stopped in his tracks and thought it all over again, was it really that important to go into the Astral? While yes he /wanted to/, he's stuck in the middle of foreign territory and he had almost forgot that this was not a place to get comfortable in, it was as hostile to him from his mansion as a battlefield would be. Thus casting that ulterior motive aside, he began to stride through the Manor, associating in familiarity with the places he visits. There was an Arcade, Dojo, Theater and more, Xanthus couldn't help but speak quietly to himself.

"Is this a Mansion or a freaking Amusement Park...?"

Closing in towards another two hours of his exploration, he was growing weary of this place, it just seemed too surreal - there had to be more to this place than just an estranged amount of diversity, right? And eventually he found just what more there was to be had when he went down a hallway between two what seemed to be Utility Rooms, inside the left room while the room didn't seemed too out of place it was what had been hidden in the back of it through darkness that had captured his inspecting eyes.


An Elevator - which when you're on the first floor and you step inside after opening it's gated entry, only went down - would strike anyone as being odd. Yet that was his profession, the oddities hidden away amidst common reality. So what did he do? Xanthus succumbed to his curiosity and went down below which would lead to another utility room and thus not only was Xanthus now confused as to why this had been hidden away. He was also going to use the rest of his time exploring every inch.


He'd be there, under everyone's feet a story below without anyone ever knowing he was gone until daybreak.

“Why would I say anything? I have no reason to.” Saying she was someone to speak of secrets was like saying she would break HIPPA, and the doctor-patient confidentiality code… which seemed to be something that was heavily followed here within these walls, but to a different degree. With a soft huff, she crossed her arms over her chest, and waited for the explanation, her brow furrowing just slightly in irritation… but that little bit of information that was given… her entire expression changed.


“Wait- There was a break-out at the Asylum?!”


From just a bit of stubbornness, she immediately tried to move past him, ignoring the glance of the other as she fully intended to leave for the time being, though it was something that she had to investigate. She needed to get to a phone immediately, wherever one was, and without a care for any of the other information there. Impulsive. She couldn’t not check on him, even if it was the middle of the night, so she silently excused herself and instantly went to the living room to check the phone in order to dial the very number she knew by heart, and called when she had time to in order to speak to him, though recently she didn’t have time to… not for a couple years since she opened her clinic.


Picking up the phone, she punched in the number and waited for a while… but the only thing that she heard was a reminder that calling hours were only from 9am-5pm…and to call during business hours. That was quite a reminder of how late it was… was her body just becoming more accustomed to late nights reading? Possibly… yet still, she gently set down the phone, and let out a sigh. She would have to remember to call him tomorrow instead… just to be safe.


But for now... all of what she was going to do tonight was lost from her mind in the panic, so now… she would just return towards her room, and put on a shaky smile to try and hide what she was feeling.


“I’m sorry for running like that… I just… there’s someone I know in the Asylum currently… I-I’m just… going to head back to sleep… nothing I can do now.”
 
Contemplating her next move, Saede makes her way up the steps to the hallway. This time there was no spectacular need to be silent, nor was there really any reason to go quickly. She had managed to read what the thing had said.. The runes, she understood them somehow. They depicted the coordinates of a location not too far from where she currently was; the hospital where her parents worked, to be precise. It was odd, not quite knowing how she was able to read them, or how she knew the coordinates... She couldn't recall learning about that kind of language in school.. Reaching the top of the stairs, she slips her phone out of her sleeve, opening it and examining the picture from earlier. ..It wasn't bad, but not perfect. She caught the man blasting fire from his hands, focused on the.. Thing in the center of the room. What was it? How was he able to..? Agh. This had brought up far more questions than answers. With a huff, Saede took a snapshot of where the entrance to this secret underground room was and came to the slow realization that this may be the best lead she had on the case. Even if the goddamn 'janitors' wouldn't tell her anything, she couldn't just let that go. No, she wouldn't. This wasn't normal. People did not shoot fire. Runes did not belong in a school; and most importantly, those two were definitely not janitors. To hell with it if they tell the principal, she could just pay her extra to stay in anyways. They could have murdered the boy, and she needed to know what was going on.


..And so, Saede entered the staircase for the second time. This time, with clear intentions.


Step after step she descended the staircase. Around the base, she broke into a run; knowing full well that this time they expected her. Finally reaching the bottom, she grabbed the handle to the door, flinging it open right into the female janitor, using both the confusion and her speed to get past her. There wasn't all that much in the room aside from the golden, rune-covered device and a few boxes. The state of the room was poor, obviously skipped over during the cleaning; which would make sense if the thing about the cloaking was true.. Gods, what was this, Star trek? The girl wasted not a moment, bee-lining to the active device much to the surprise of the male janitor, who had stopped working the moment he had notice her enter. Saede wasn't sure if these 'people' could display emotion, but if they could this was as close to full out surprise as she was going to get. ..It brought a smirk to her face.


..But they recovered quickly, the man getting in the way of her rapid approach, and the woman moving to intercept her from behind - Not that it did them much good. She gracefully weaved out of the woman's way, moving just barely out of the man's reach and taking the last few bounds to the glowing machine before entering the indicated effect range of the device.. It was so close..


Finally, she entered, and as her vision went white a single thought resonated through her mind.


'This had better be the way out that I think this is.'

The blue haired boy tried his best to grab her as she swung herself toward the portal. It wasn't in his mission parameters to stop her. He was supposed to repair the portal. In fact, it was even outside of his mission to think about leaving the underground space where his mission was being carried out. And yet, he felt angry, and he forced himself to resist and fling himself after her. He wasn't a person, he was an angel. A tool of a larger machine, and he didn't appreciate being ignored. The fledgling of a personality that he had flared up in that moment. He tumbled down the white tunnel, unable to stop as he had already gone through with his own bold leap.


In the space between seconds, he fell along with the schoolgirl through blank whiteness. As he fell, his memories of heaven were stripped from him like colors pulled away by chemical bleach. The man's blue eyes shone in the whiteness. He was caught in a freefall down the white space as he tried to catch up with her. They both floated through the space, weightless, but he was intent on somehow propelling himself forward. Instinctively, even after his memories and identity were torn away, he shot a burst of flame from one of his hands and started to fall faster through the white vacuum after Saede.


"Hey! I'm not letting you get away!" his scream was audible as he fell closer towards her level, but unfortunately they were about to reach the end of their short trip. The man grew weak as the pressure within, combined with the force from the acceleration, strained his lungs. Wait, he needed to breathe? He was stuck inside his body now, he realized as his thoughts faded. He was no longer a pure spirit, but bound into the life of a Janitor. It didn't make him angrier, because the focus of that emotion was still primarily the girl. He didn't even know her, and yet he was magnetised to come after her for some reason. Were they attracted by the very forces of fate? Was this meant to be?


Regardless, the action was already put into motion, and even as a powerful being...the former angel could not stop himself now.


He fell until he reached the end of the light...


Together, the two of them fell, landing in a featureless white chamber that was located somewhere in the hospital. Computer terminals were placed against some of the walls, with white keyboards and futuristic psudo-holographic looking screens.


As the man regained himself, he realized that he was now finally free from the laws of God.


Even as he stood up, he was still falling...


He looked over at the girl, anger flared again. Wisps of blue flame formed around his left hand. This was not the flame of god, carried by a torch. This was hellfire.


Falling further as his thoughts descended toward Wrath...


"Where are we?!" The flaming man demanded of the girl who was still trying to recover, "And who are you?! You couldn't have gotten through our cloaks if you were just a normal person!"


Gears turned faster and faster in his head as the spiritual side of him was slowly being grinded away until he became something else. He had fallen.


And thus, a demon was born.

Session 1, Scene 1: Order to Hunt


@Trickster Queen


A elevator dinged in the darkness, and Orfeo's two top guards searched around the area once morning dawned. They were running between the three different sectors plus the garage. Their voices echoed in the wide space, "Should I open the vault?" "Don't bother. He couldn't have gotten back there. I'll go left, you check the right wing and the garage...you're faster." Xanthus would hear as Sword came closer. He wasn't making any attempts to hide his presence from the man. The underground lights were seconds away from switching on, and in such a wide area with little cover there were very few places that the detective could hide. "Where the fuck are you? Just come out and this'll be over quick. I'm tougher and stronger than you, and I have permission to hurt you if you don't come quietly." Sword spoke as the lights were about to switch on. He cracked his knuckles, and in that instant Xanthus would remember the intense aura that flowed from him. They were looking for him, looks like they eventually noticed he was not in his room. Took them long enough, almost the whole night. For now though, the night was over. A new day had begun.

Yuzuki assisted her new partner-in-murder to the hospital, feeling kind of bad for the boy. Replaying the events in her head... yeah, she fucked him up pretty badly. At least she had the mercy of shooting him in his already disabled leg... rather that than be confined in a wheelchair forever. On the whole, her marksmanship was spot on, so there was always something to feel proud of. Silver linings right?


When they had gotten into the hospital check in line, Lupus had been moved up the priority list- getting shot did that luckily enough and she followed him into the room. She couldn't remember the excuse she gave that let her stay with him... lovers? servant? ...Well it didn't matter, she had gotten through, and that's all that mattered She had remained with him in his room for a while, a few hours at least.


"Don't worry, I'll cover your dog and your house, just give me your keys and your address." Yuzuki orders. "I take care of my own, so focus on healing. I'll see if I can get you a laptop so you can do some work while you're stuck here." She ads... no point in having the man sit there bored... and she could always use the help. Isn't that why she spared him in the first place? She thought to the events that had transpired.. was he going to be worth it? Time would tell.


"Speaking of which, I'll be right back." Yuzuki says as she stands up. "I'll consult a contact about the current hunt... and i'll see if they can get you some of those cute little ice cream cup things." She says, winking at him before leaving, heading up to the roof.


She looked around... it seemed to be clear, but even then, she ducked behind a corner, sits down, and rests her back against the wall. "Alright Seren, we have work to do" She says. Removing her eyepatch, opening that eye. "Give me the vision I need to excel."

Robbert's eyes widen as he saw his wife broken and bloody looking up at him. If he had a heartbeat it would have stopped there and then. He could not ignore her now that she was right there before his eyes. "Evelyn!" He jumped down to her and moved in to hold her in his arms. He wanted to keep her there forever if he could breath he was sure it would be shaky as he worried for her life or unlife or whatever the fuck it was. "Don't worry love, I'll keep you safe. I'll get you out of here and we can get a doctor, You should see the new world, its everything we dreamed of and more. Just hold on till I get us out of here!"

"As you wish, ma'am." Seren focused her will, and allowed her to see across the city for a brief moment. A waking dream filled her mind, overtaking all of her senses.





A hazy brightness filled her mind, slowly coming into focus...


The man, the man she had seen in the photos, was inside a white room with padded walls. His body was restrained, tied back with clasps to the wall. It looked nothing like the pose of the messiah. This man's binding was not graceful. He seemed to be unconscious, eyes closed, but his body shifted slightly as if he was undergoing a sort of night-terror. He wore the strange sort of outdated clothing that marked him as man not of this era, but his body looked perfectly preserved. Yuzuki was able to hone in on one thing within the frame. There was a wooden stake driven into his chest. Case closed, this man was a vampire!


However, he must have been freshly risen since he appeared to not be very pale or even slightly inhuman looking. His skin was still full of life, and he even spoke in murmurs while he was being staked. This is something that was not possible, as a staked vampire normally would be completely comatose.


"Evelyn!" she heard a bit of his voice before the vision started to fade out again. She returned to reality with another clue on her hands. The padded room suggested that he was probably being held at the asylum. However, the asylum was still crowded with police after the break-out.


"Maybe we should stay out of this, it seems like whoever this is, he's being restrained..." Seren advised, knowing Yuzuki would most likely ignore him. The investigation was not yet complete, there were still some holes left open about this man's true nature.
 
“Well that's certainly kind of you, give me a moment would you...” Lupus said reaching into his pocket painfully to pull out the key to his apartment and handing it to Yuzuki. It’s not like Lupus had any say in the matter, he lost that privilege the second her had sworn his loyalty over to her. It could be worse, he thought to himself, he could be dead.


“Oh that would be quite nice, I would imagine myself being quite bored here with no one to talk to and such. Then again I’m usually talking to Oliver half the time...” Lupus goes on as Yuzuki begins to get up. “Ice-cream cups? That sounds wonderful, well then I'll see you when you get back.” Lupus says waving to Yuzuki with a smile as she left the room.


Strange, though he was her servant he was actually being treated as a human being, hell he was getting treated better than the indebted of the Thules. Of course Lupus didn’t mind, in fact he enjoyed it, it was much more comfortable to work for someone that treated you like a friend than a slave after all. Even more than that the Lucifuge hunter intrigued Lupus, he never met any other hunters besides those in the Thules. So Lupus didn’t know what to expect when he went to meet Yuzuki and now, well, she had made quite the first impression.


Lupus put his hands behind his head and laid back against the pillows now that Yuzuki was finally gone, now on to some more concerning matters... What he felt back in her apartment, that was something Lupus hadn’t felt in quite sometime and it began to concern him. He had never been a violent person really but that, that urge was truly something dangerous. He looked to the ceiling recalling how he had felt his blood boil, the feeling urging him to go against Yuzuki’s offer of servitude. He knew exactly what it was after all, the bane of his existence, Wolfs Blood. That's what had gotten him crippled after all, destroyed so many pathways he could have traveled in life, condemning him to the cane evermore...


Lupus sighed, ‘Perhaps it's about time I embraced my blood, right? hm?’ The thought passed through Lupus’s mind, he had spent the last 7 years repressing any feelings or urges his blood would offer to the point where it had been like he had never been born with the blood. But now even after all that time Lupus considered to try and accept it rather than push it away... “ugh.... well maybe there will be a bit of fun in all this, Yuzuki doesn’t seem all that bad, and well the food will be better than last time. Hah.” Lupus said chuckling to himself as he laid there waiting for the theory hunter's return. ‘Heh, who knows, maybe oliver can teach me a trick or two if I ask him...’





Just as his thoughts wandered to the little corgi a small pitter pattering could be heard just outside of the hall, confused by he noise Lupus turned his head side ways to see just what it was. To his surprise and delight, the chubby little corgi named Oliver waddled on in, his tongue hanging from his mouth as he gave everything he walked by a curious look. Upon seeing Lupus in bed the Corgi made a mad dash towards his companion yipping excitedly.





“Oliver!” Lupus exclaimed with a wide grin as he opened his arms wide to accept the dog, sadly Oliver simply face planted against the side of the bed before recovering and trying to jump up from the side. “Oh get over here you little buggah!” Lupus said picking up the dog and giving him a hug. “Miss me?” Olivers only response was to lick the man in the face and yip happily. “Woof!"

Yuzuki sat back, noticing everything in the vision vividly. That man was ... or is going to be, back at the asylum? She had thought he had broken out... then again that could be exactly what they wanted everyone to think. Operating from inside of an asylum... who did this guy think he was, the Joker?!


"You're right of course, Seren." She said as she thought about it. "I want to confirm what this guy is. I saw a stake but... staked beings don't talk or move when in Torpor... he can't be a vampire." She said. "No, it's definitely an undead spirit of some sort, something that is being held in this world and can't let go, some form of ghost or spirit. Once I confirm what he is, I'll deal with him in the best course possible, either erasing him somehow, or keeping him in isolation... either would be a win-win. The fact that all this happened after a ship appeared... I need to go examine that at some point... for now I'll contact the Lucifuge, and tell Father to isolate that creep and have the guards keep their distance and prevent all contact, and a camera watching him too. I'm going to make sure the issue can't be an issue."


Pulling out her phone, she puts it up to her ears... she was contacting her organization. "It's Yuzuki... we have a few situations here.." She said, and began to tell them everything. Her research, her meeting with the demon yesterday, and everything since then... there was frankly a lot to talk about and she spent a few minutes up there. "...What do we need to do? If someone is after demons shouldn't we act? And what should we do about this undead creep?"

Yuzuki stood in a corner of the Memorial Hospital while activity started to pick up. Nurses walked along the hallways and patients were being wheeled between rooms. The sound of children complaining about waiting and the comforting female voices of the nurses could all be heard at once. The place itself was brightly lit and mostly colored white or red along the walls. Yuzuki was within the shadows, where nobody looked for the moment.


When Yuzuki put the phone to her ear, she heard the blaring noise of club music and a group of voices surrounding the male speaker. His name was Chase, although it wasn't Chase who spoke to her. The man had sold his soul to the owner of the club, who functioned as a liaison for the Lucifuge. Yuzuki would be aware that her contact was currently possessed, but this is how they did business. Though, he spoke as if he was normally himself so to not draw suspicion. "You should go check out this undead. I heard you've killed quite a few before...make sure he's not a threat to anyone before you get trigger happy though."


There was a pause as they moved into a more quiet room, moving past other voices while the music became quieter.


"I'm happy to hear that you've found a recruit, once he's recovered you should bring him around so that we can give him a warm welcome."


"Oh, who is that?" another voice asked, sounding like it was next to him.


"Yuzuki, we're talking business...leave us."


"Oh, sorry!" the woman sighed and took her leave.


"As for this demon...you said his name was Greg...I think you should be careful about dealing with him. He works for someone that I'd rather not get involved with for right now. You should figure out who found him and what they know." She already knew Aatto brought him in, so part of that job was already done. "Oh, and if you ever feel like coming over and having some fun...you know where I am, darling~" The man clearly did not sound masculine as the demon slipped out a bit more before he hung up.

"Alright, I'll go have a talk with him." She says. "That seems to be the fastest way to handle things... I'll get some work done and sell off a painting to raise money for some extra equipment.. and i'll work on training my new partner. He has potential, but right now he's just adorably cute." She says. "Alright. Looks like you're having fun so i'll call you later when I figure out some more, see you!"


Hanging up, she thought about it... so Greg was already known then? In that case, there was no further need too get involved with him... that was one less thing on her pate, and she liked it when her plate wasn't full... she figured she had enough with the undead... a new partner to work with it as it was. She made her way down to Nurse's lounge, opening up the fridge and taking a few small ice cream cups... she was a woman of her word after all.


"Sorry, i'm back~" Yuzuki said as she hopped on the bed beside her partner. "I was talking with my contacts... sorry but I'm going to have to get to work soon." She said, taking a spoon and holding it out to him. "Tell me everything i need to know and I'll get it taken care of."

As she entered the lounge, a nurse who stood in the background trained her eyes on her and watched her as she left. However, she didn't seem to protest or complain that the desert had been stolen. She allowed it to happen and just stood there as if nothing was happening. Then the nurse followed Yuzuki out into the hallway, and the perceptive hunter would probably notice that the woman was standing inside the room, nearby her, once she went back towards Lupus. She had short brown hair and yellow eyes, looked fairly young, and wore a nurse's outfit with a red cross marked on her hat. She didn't say a word and simply stood in the room, looking between Lupus and Yuzuki. She gave a smile once Yuzuki looked towards her, a seemingly friendly one.
 
“Ahhh hello, you're just in time to meet Oliver, wait where did he go now?” Lupus looked around noticing the corgi had left the bed just as Yuzuki had entered. Lupus shrugged, Oliver was probably wandering about looking for new things to well look at, Oliver always seemed to be studying his environment. "Aww that's a shame, well at least Oliver can keep me company, he’s not the best conversationalist but he’s a good listener at least.” Lupus said with a chuckle, recalling a time where the dog had once listened to him for hours on end while most would just go off to sleep. “Oh thank you Miss~” Lupus said opening his mouth to eat the spoonful of ice cream. “Mmm, As for what you need to know? Well nothing really since Oliver's here now, I guess Perhaps just check by my apartment? I don’t believe i have anything there running though so everything should be fine.”


Meanwhile just before Yuzuki had entered Oliver had hopped off the bed without Lupus’s knowing to remain unseen by the new intruder. He circled around and noticed Yuzuki had entered and sat on the bed beside Lupus. She didn’t seem to have any ill intents so he allowed it watching her before nudging her foot curiously with his nose as if to test to make sure she was safe to be near his friend. As Oliver was testing the woman he felt an ominous presence, turning around he saw the nurse with her yellow eyes who seemed to be staring at Yuzuki. Oliver gave the woman one look as a single thought went through his head, Different... Oliver gritted his teeth and growled at the nurse moving to block the pathway between the two hunters and the nurse, more specifically Lupus. “WOOF!” Oliver barked once at the nurse to get the attention of Lupus and Yuzuki before narrowing his eyes and growling again, he didn’t like this woman not at all.


“Oh! It seems Oliver has noticed we have a spot of company.” Lupus observed, looking at what Oliver had been growling at. Strange, Oliver wasn’t an aggressive dog so when he got like this something had to be up. “It seems she’s here to see you miss Yuzuki, Oliver stop that!” Lupus said to the dog beckoning him back before picking him up and placing him on his lap. Despite his wishes Oliver still growled and stared down the interloper. “My sincerest apologies i don’t know what's gotten into him, really.” Lupus feigned as he pet the dog trying to calm him down. ‘Stay down boy, I know you don’t like this...’ Lupus thought to himself as he smiled to the nurse in greeting.

When Saede opened her eyes, she was no longer in the same place as before. This was the hospital, of that she seemed confident. Not sure, but confident. Beside her was the janitor from before.. And he seemed flustered, to say the least. The room was something like what she had never seen. It seemed very plain, but also very advanced. ..Damn, she had never been here before. The girl looked up to the one who had followed her in surprise. He had followed her..? Somehow she must have neglected that when she thought of her plan.


..And suddenly, she was being yelled at.


It kind of scared her, not that she showed any indication of it. Saede quickly whipped out her katana, pointing it to the janitor as she backed up slightly. It was a simple one, made of steel and with a basic grip. Nothing fancy. "Shouldn't you know where we are? Can you not even read the letters on the damn machine you're working on!?" Her voice resonated throughout the room, matching the volume of which he yelled his demands. "As if it was my fault you killed that boy! Did he find your secret room too? Did he!?" She glared at him, her eyes following the flame around his arm. Gods.. Was it that color before? Nng.. It happened so fast, she could hardly remember.
 



  • "Hold on, I have to deal with this first." He rushed over to the white computer terminal and rapidly typed. "Thank god, I still have access..." He typed away, and Saede would hear the computer chime out:


    -Access Granted-


    The shimmering portal behind them started to fade away until the circle was now just a set of indents on the floor. "There, shut down the Aetheric flow so that she won't follow me...if she found out I left the room...wait, how'd I leave the room?" His hands shook as he turned away from the keyboard. "I'm...not supposed to be able to leave..." He looked over at the girl, who was now holding a sword towards him. He just grinned a bit, but didn't look very afraid. "Girls aren't supposed to carry swords, you're definitely not a normal girl...so I can trust you, and even if I don't...it doesn't matter anymore. I'm Kal, by the way." He walked closer towards her, his arm-flames fading. Behind him, the computer flashed with symbols that shifted and changed before her eyes. Her brain translated the symbols until they settled on English.


    -Welcome to the Parental God's Tribunal Memorial Hospital-


    the words were plastered onto a white pseudo-holographic screen that was dominated by a command prompt-like setup.

Yuzuki didn't have much time to think. An absence of aether.. what, like angels or other demons... or something that preyed off of them? If Seren was scared... Yuzuki needed to get moving, that much was obvious. Her mind began to work. Looking at the woman, than to Lupus again... there was no time to worry about her new partner. She had to figure out a few things, and she needed to figure them out quickly. ... What was she? Was she after Yuzuki or Lupus? Just by the fact that she was in a nurse outfit, Lupus seeme a likely target... but Yuzuki had to make sure... too much might be at stake. Whatever else was going on, there was one thing Yuzuki knew from base instinct.


It was time for a performance.


"Ah but of course." Yuzuki said, her mind switching into high gear. This room... this hospital, it was no longer a place of healing. It was a stage set for combat. Her mind began noticing everything. The equipment in the room, fire extinguishers for cover... it was a last resort, she figured a fight wouldn't happen right here and now... was she even on to them? ... No, she definitely was. "I think his cage is in the car. I'll go get it. " She says, going to pet the dog. "Sorry honey, say your goodbyes to him while i go get it." She says, leaning in and kissing his cheek. "She's not human... she's probably here to kill one of us. Be prepared to fight for your life." She whispers, before turning and walking outside of the room.


She felt the weight of her gun... of course she had brought sleeper and dreamer with her... but she needed to clear the area... what would do that, a fire alarm? No... no one paid attention to the fire alarm unless they were actually on fire. No... but people always paid attention to the threat of their lives. That meant a bomb threat... a bomb threat in the other wing, across the hospital. That would do multiple things. IT would clear the entire hospital, it would get people's eyes OFF her side when she was in combat... not to mention that all bomb squads were equipped with radio frequency jammers that disabled all cameras, just on the safe side. She also needed a way to disguise herself... she didn't have any tech to hide her voice, so if the hospital tapped her call via video she was toast... unless she threatened... a forged threat note ought to do the trick...


'No, calm down Yuzu, we don't even know if she's after us yet... still, i had better begin writing that note... i'm sure a supply closet has printer paper...' She thought to herself. 'Seren , give me every single possibility on what this can be. It may turn into a fight.

"Well, as you know, this amount of Aether would have to be generated from either an environmental anomaly or a large amount of leftover resonance from beings like demons or angels. Since the Lucifuge isn't affiliated with this place...I'm guessing that..." Seren took a breath "Listen, Yuzuki...we need to leave. If there are really angels here...they're going to come after me." the demon looked towards the yellow-eyed nurse, Yuzuki could feel her eye squirming in the socket behind her eyepatch as it tilted frantically. "Don't let her notice you, she might be one of them!" the eyeball sounded a bit paranoid too, but for good reason. Though, Seren sounded a bit more concerned about protecting itself rather than protecting Yuzuki with this warning.
 
“What are you-?” Lupus blushed slightly as Yuzuki moved in to kiss his cheek, utterly confused until she began to whisper to him, clever girl. Lupus nodded his head at the information, so thats why Oliver was in such a ruckus huh? “I see well take care love, I wait your return.” Lupus said with a smile playing along as he waved her goodbye. So now he was stuck in a hospital room, unable to move, with something that wasn’t even human... 'Lovely~ oh i wonder whats going to come next? Maybe Oliver will grow wings and fly like a butterfly.’ Lupus thought sarcastically. So far this day was going worse than when he got hit by a car or when his negotiations got botched...


“Well then no need to worry Oliver's a good boy aren’t ya?” Lupus said smiling playfully and petting the the corgi, giving the dog one last hug and kiss on the forehead before setting him down on his lap. “Alright Oliver you heard the woman, you're going to have to excuse yourself for a bit so off ya go...” Lupus said gesturing for the dog to leave.


Oliver whined as Lupus told him to leave a bit hesitant, he tilted his head at Lupus with puppy dogs as if you ask ‘Why you do dis?’ To which Lupus responded with a look that said ‘Oliver please’. Lupus then lowered his voice and said one word to the dog “Run” and with that Oliver gave the man's face one last lick before hopping off the bed and waddling out, giving the nurse one last questioning look before leaving.


“Sorry about that, he’s quite attached to me i swear it's hard to go anywhere without the little fur on my tail.” Lupus said with a laugh as he watched the corgi run off, trying his best to relax in a situation such as this.


The small command “Run” basically told Oliver that it was best for him to leave the area. Despite that Oliver was a bit fearful for Lupus so he thought maybe if he found other hoomans they could help. As he made his way down the hall he came across a blue haired man and a blonde haired girl. “Woof!” Oliver barked once to get there attention, he approached the girl and pulled on her pants leg as if trying his best to get her to follow him. When she didn’t appear to move he whined softly.

Saede stares at him, at a loss for words. Wasn't he just intending to catch or kill her..? Well, this was an improvement by leaps and bounds. He even closed off the area so the other janitor wouldn't get to them. "..Kal." She states, looking at him. For a janitor, she had to admit he was pretty good looking. "..Thank you for closing that off.. I think." Her arms slowly moved her katana down to her feet, the girl giving him an uncertain look. She starts to speak, only to catch her tongue and raise her weapon once again. "How do you shoot fire from your hands?" She asks, followed by a rapid second question. "And do you, or do you not know what happened to Narcoses?" Her questions were stated like demands, the girl still not sure if she could trust this boy. He could shoot fire from his hands, and shut down magical portals. That was more than enough to take in at one time.


Maybe he knew what was going on here.. She desperately wanted to believe she was in control of the situation, but in truth she knew she wasn't. This was unfamiliar ground for her - And it seemed that the janitor knew it.

    "It's no problem at all, are you feeling any better?" The nurse, whose nametag read Lisa, examined Lupus' leg. "Why did you get shot? It looks pretty serious..." She sounded concerned. "Hunting accident?" her soft yellow eyes looked towards lupus. It seemed impossible that she wasn't human because she looked exactly like one, and yet Yuzuki said she must be something else. She went to grab a medical kit and prepared a needle for him. "I'm going to take some blood samples." She explained. Luckily for him, Wolfblood wasn't going to appear on any test, it would be hidden from examination by the spirits that protected all werewolves. She took a sample and tested his blood pressure after Yuzuki had left and then departed the examination room.
