​

William was relieved when Ashley-May didn't voice any additional protest to the plan; he wasn't sure what they would have done if she hadn't gone along with it... and he wouldn't put it past Mac to knock her partner out and lock her away for safekeeping if it came down to the matter of her safety... and that of the child she now carried.

Elijah had expected Ashley-May to continue the argument, but was thankful she didn't. This situation was already difficult enough for both of them and he knew Mackenzie and William wouldn't take no for an answer, especially once they got their power couple mojo going.

"Drive in movie date."

Eli looked up at Mackenzie with a silent glare at the phrasing. Still, he couldn't fault the logic in the locale. No Pack of Purebloods -- even one as large and influential as this one -- would willingly risk public exposure on such a scale in their shifted form. He was about to ask Mackenzie what films would be playing -- more as a joke than anything -- when Mac beat him to the chase. He froze, swallowing hard. A classic horror flick was one thing, but The Blue Lagoon?! He could feel his face reddening already and not with anger -- despite the fact that he could see a subtle smirk forming on William's face despite his best attempts to hide it.

"Lucky us," Elijah remarked dryly. Still, despite the embarrassment -- current and future -- on his mind, it was not the part of Mackenzie's statement he found most troubling. "By the time the movies let out Vitae's fate will be decided."

Elijah felt a pit in his stomach. It was no secret that -- even if the promises of gods and vampires came to prove their worth on the night of reckoning -- Vitae was facing an existential threat. And he would be locked in a car watching a film through it all, not knowing what he would come back to. He felt his hand clench into a fist at his side as his eyes flicked down to the bed.

Will saw the sudden change in his partner's expression and frowned, having an idea of the reason. He understood there was a serious chance of him not making it through that night alive and had come to terms with that reality. But he still felt that his partner had the more difficult role by far and didn't envy the man's position in the least.

Will glanced toward Mackenzie, "Maybe we should bring some breakfast by the barracks for Joe," he remarked casually. He hadn't forgotten their obligation to Chase, but he wasn't sure how much Ashley-May knew about the situation.

Emile's eyebrows raised with Chase's chastising of him asking another pack member for help. While some of what Chase said was lost on him; there was only so much slang and English colloquialism he could keep up with he understood the context behind it. "What do you call telling Mal to give you French words?" He countered, "You do not try ma langue rein du tout." Hand raised to splash water at Chase in a playful manner laughing.

He had no doubt that his father was less than pleased with him coming to the pack; though he would admit he was certainly alright with the change up. He gave a slight nod. "We go back to camp soon. You call him then?" It was more of an offer than anything else, he didn't want Chase to lose his connection to his family because he wanted to try and be a wolf.

​

Brendan waited, as patiently as he could, for the kitsune to finally acknowledge him, and when he did it was almost as though Brendan was wasting his time. It annoyed him to no end to listen to Jordan speak as though he were a superior being, but he could not turn down the prospect of a potential ally in the future. He gave a short glance to Bart, whom had remained on the ground a short distance away, before turning back to Jordan. "An alliance is something we can speak about more, at a later time." He would not comment on why the alliance would be discussed; twice now in one day the on coming apocalypse had been mentioned, it only be a matter of time before the members of the colony caught wind of it. "I will speak on your behalf to the rest of the Council, how can we contact you?"

Ashley-May froze upon hearing where Mac intended on send them, not for the location or the moves -the second one she had never heard of, but the awkwardness of how Mac had said it. Drive in movie date. She couldn't prevent the slight flush from forming on her cheeks but she turned away to return to eating her breakfast. She had heard Eli's sarcastic comment about them being lucky and it bothered her more than it should have. She didn't know why, but hearing him clearly displeased with the idea of a 'date' even a fictional one, had hurt. "I don't know how much of the movies will actually be watched," She said, though didn't look away from her plate. "I have to do a lot of research on what to expect."

Mackenzie glanced to Ash as she spoke about research, she desperately wanted to comment that Ash didn't need to worry, that she would get it sorted out, but held her tongue. First things first she needed to bring Will into the fold and work out a few bugs before she could say anything aloud; lest the god in her head hear her thoughts. Will brought up Joe and Mac nodded. "Yea, I think that would be a good idea." She rose, to collect some food up to bring to Joe, glancing to Eli and Ash once more. "After we see Joe, Will and I are heading to down to gas up the Beast, you guys need anything picked up?"

Elijah shook his head. "No, I have the finest luxuries in the world at my fingertips," he said with an exaggerated sweeping gesture of the room -- which was quickly cut short by a wince as he clutched at his abdomen.

William started to step forward when he saw his partner in pain, but stopped short as Eli waved him off, instead settling for a sigh and shake of his head. "You reopen that wound and the Pack will be the least of your worries," he said dryly. "You've already managed to piss off half the nurses here with refusing to let them get you cleaned up." Catching Elijah's raised brow of surprise, he nodded. "Yes, I heard about that last night." He paused, eyes squinting as he looked over his partner -- with less grime on him than he remembered. His eyes flicked to the chair in the corner with a still-damp towel draped over it. "How did you--" he began to ask before his eyes fell on Ashley-May and he decided not to finish the question... even as his mouth curved into the faintest hint of a knowing smirk while Elijah stared very pointedly at his own blanket.

William turned to Ash, deciding to return to the original subject before things got any more awkward. "What about you? You need anything?"

Solomon nodded in agreement, " I will keep my knowledge of the end to myself until you decide to release it, and I greatly appreciate your willingness to help me find the artifact. If you wish I do believe I have someone who is... uniquely qualified to help the Colony against the Pack. Should I call him?" Solomon asked referencing Pan who was within his dagger. He phrased it in such a way that he could show off his power, and show the Council that his control over the God was strong.

Hypnos was surprised when the Djinn began fighting back against his dream. He didn't think she had the gall to try and break free. Well it wasn't that strange their territories did overlap so it wasn't that much of a stretch that she would be able to notice something was off. So Hypnos switched tactics. Instead of scaring her with the dream he would just speak with her. The Dream would begin to unravel and crack. The Men's angry shouting stopped and their forms flickered. Then they all spoke in unison as Hypnos spoke through them, " Why have you come to this place Djinn? Do you seek an easy meal from those under my protection?"

Chase flinched sheepishly at Emile's words, knowing that Emile had caught that part of their conversation with his hearing. He raised an arm to defend against the splashing, "The difference is I'm not trying to learn French, I just wanted something to annoy you." At that he'd splashed back in retaliation. "You on the other hand are trying to learn the English language are you not?" It was a sarcastic question and a real one at the same time, he assumed Emile was but he couldn't be sure.

He'd playfully scoff at Emile pushing him to call Joe, "Alright Emile, you're even more impatient than I am. Yes, I'll call him when we get back." With that he pushed off the shallow part of the stream so that he'd float out into the deeper bit, going under one last time before standing up and wiping the water from his eyes and sloshing through the water until he was back on shore. Chase couldn't be sure how long Emile was suggesting they stay but he'd already been told he could head back when he wanted but considering Emile's words the Alpha would rather head back with him. Either way Chase had opted to get out of the water before he started getting pruney. "I can go on ahead if you have anything to wrap up." The man would smile and nod downstream where Morgan was, "Or people to toss in the water." He'd pause to start wringing the water from his borrowed shorts, leaving a small puddle where he stood.​

She looks around, baring her teeth, though he'll know that that's just her being scared. "No… I didn't come here to hurt anyone. Unless you count grabbing a blood bag from the infirmary when I need it."

She huffs, forcing herself into her adult form to make the others seem less threatening, though her image is shaky, not very defined. "Despite the overwhelmingly popular belief, not all of us are monsters." She growls angrily.

She's pretty pissed. The last person who ever manipulated her dreams was her father, and he and the others have been dead for seven years. That's the only reason it took her that long to notice the interference. She's out of practice.

Angela watched the man with interest when he mentioned he might be able to help with the pack. As much as she would prefer to have Brendan present for any decisions, this was his and Hendrix’s department after all, she certainly wouldn’t turn down an opportunity. “I am intrigued,” She admitted. “While I can’t make the final decision, I can bring it to the rest of the Council.”


Ashley blinked as she was suddenly address, she turned and gave will a brilliant, albeit false, smile. “No I’m good thanks.” There wasn’t anything at this time she could think of that she needed from outside the colony. She hadn’t missed William noticing Elijah being a little cleaner than he was previously, but she wasn’t about to give up the man secret. “You two have fun.” She teased.

Mackenzie glanced between Eli and Ash, the pair were acting oddly, well odder than normal, but with Ash’s last statement she rolled her eyes and headed out of the small room with Will. Once clear of the door and ear shot she glanced at him. “You notice anything strange in there?” She wasn’t sure if it was just her seeing strange behavior.


Emile cast a glance towards Morgan and then gave Chase I nod. “I meet you at Den.” He agreed, rising from the water to step onto the shore so his foot falls would become quieter. Morgan was seated in the water facing away from him, speaking with Brody as he man floated slightly in deeper water. He padded across the grass until he was behind the girl before he attacked. She screamed as Emile dragged her out of the water and tossed her through the air, over Brody’s head , to splash near the middle of the stream and beneath the water.

Eddie opened the bottle and drank it quickly, squeezing it to make it come out faster. When he was done, he painted a bit, before leaning back in his chair. "Thank you..." A few minutes later, he began snoring loudly as he slept with his face against the window. Alator NanLia

Chase noticed Emile use the word Den, it wasn't hard to decipher that he was referring to his cabin. Chase moved for the area he'd seen Malcolm come with the clothing, and once behind a tree he removed the shorts and deposited them nearby just as he heard a scream followed by a splash telling him Emile had succeeded in his endeavors. Taking a breath he crouched and shifted into his furrier form. He gave a quick shake of his coat to rid himself of any water before he trotted away, eventually breaking into a jog. The direction of the camp was already known to Chase but he still followed close to the path they'd taken by following the scent.

He wasn't particularly trying to rush back, mostly thinking when to send the text to Will as well as what he was actually going to say when he spoke to Joe. Chase imagined the man would indeed still be angry despite giving a slight lie to Emile about that whole case. He'd have to find a reason to leave and hope that Emile wouldn't be too suspicious, the easiest way would be to tell the Alpha his father wanted to speak in person. Emile shouldn't try and stop him or send anyone to follow him considering Joe's dislike of wolves.​

​

Elijah watched William and Mac leave, giving them a weak wave as they walked out. Remembering what Ash had said about research, he waited for several moments, staring down at the blanket covering him before turning toward her and clearing his throat. "I'd be happy to give you all the lore I have on Angels and Nephilim in my collection," he said quietly. "It's not much -- I didn't even know if they were real -- but maybe it'll help?" His mouth curved into a small smile.

"In any case it'll give you something to entertain yourself with other than the movies and the pleasure of my company," he added lightly, almost tentatively. After the awkwardness of the last few minutes, he was testing the water with his usual jokes. Ashley-May was already weirded out by his suddenly serious demeanor -- she had said as much.

​

“You notice anything strange in there?”
​

William chuckled. "'Strange' would be putting it lightly," he said under his breath. "Even I have trouble dealing with Elijah when he's being stubborn on shit like that. What's Ash's secret?" He frowned. "And the way he went from being scared for his of you to defensive..." He reached out with his hand, offering it to her. "Maybe it's nothing... and you're just losing your touch," he joked as they walked toward the door.

Jordan bowed slightly before producing a burner phone from the inside of his suit jacket. " Call from this phone and I will personally come." Jordan bowed once more before speaking again "Ah! I must be straightforward, the other group the... pack as they call themselves are being extended the same offer. We believe that the... " Jordan stopped for a moment and thought back, the man had not said a word about the apocalypse so he would adhere to the same principle, " situation is more prevalent than you are willing to admit... Do not be put off though, we will remain completely neutral in our dealings. I hope that you and the council can understand why we cannot fully commit to one or the other with the problems that lie ahead and hope that our telling you so does not in anyway affect your decision." Jordan was genuine in his words but knew whether they admitted it or not, this put them in a predicament... if the Pack accepted and the Council didn't... well he would cross that bridge when the time came.



As for Himiko, she had changed her clothing in the forest and was making her way to the Pack even as Jordan was talking. She was not a negotiator like Jordan but she had no doubt that she could convince the Alpha, she was quite similar to wolves due to her nature. She made her way through the forest and stopped when she smelled wolves. She was close, at least their Intel was accurate.

​

Christopher glanced at Eddie after he passed out, honestly the man had to be a narcoleptic. That, or he simply couldn't cope with the idea of gods and the like. He glanced to Thor as they continue onward to New Jersey, "Did you get any more information from the god besides 'go pick up my wife?'" He had to ask. "All we were told is that she's in a flower shop somewhere."

​

The scent of the kitsune in their territory was not unnoticed, messages were relayed through the pack notifying the Alpha and his Beta of her presence, however the Alpha had little interest in meeting with, let alone speaking with, the ktisune; Emile rarely bothered to speak to anyone that wasn't a wolf, or a human joining his pack. Malcolm, the packs Beta, broke away from the pack, knowing a single wolf would be far more approachable than a group of ten even if they were relaxing. He headed towards the area the kitsune had been seen, walking at a leisurely pace.

​

Brendan accepted the phone but watched Jordan and his odd gesture for delivery, kitsunes were soon to be known to the Council as odd creatures. He gave a stiff nod as he heard that his own people would be speaking and making the same offer to the pack, though he doubted greatly the Alpha would be as pleasant. "Thank you." He said, dropping the phone in his pocket. "I will be in touch when the Council makes it's decision."

​

Ashley smiled to Elijah and his offer. "Thanks." She was certain what ever he had would help out greatly; she wanted to know everything she could before the child was born, just so she could be prepared. She shifted to grab the chart at the bottom of his bed, his pain and near constant wincing had not gone unnoticed. She flipped through the pages and glanced at the monitors before setting the chart back. While he was topped up on liquid morphine for the time being, she could at least get him something for the mean time.

"I'll be right back." She stood and stepped out of the small room to head to the nursing station. Within a few minutes she returned with a glass of water. "Here." She held out her hand with a little blue pill. "It'll make you sleepy, but it'll easy the pain. I was a little rough earlier." She gave him a playful wink. "After you take this I can help you into some clothes, if you want? So you feel more comfortable?"

​

Mackenzie slipped her hand into his, raising an eyebrow. "Perish that thought." She muttered, she had not lost her threatening charm, but she certainly was thankful Will had noticed the oddity too. "Could be the nephilim thing." She offered as possible conclusion. "Ash is acting strange because, who wouldn't? And Eli ... " She gave a slight shrug, she couldn't fathom why he would be so defensive of Ashley, it was almost like the man was defending his girl friend, his own child.

She gave a slight sigh and glanced to Will as they continued on towards the barracks to see Joe. "You don't think this is going to go well, right?" She wanted to make sure Will was ready for Joe to lash out at them, she expected nothing less.

Himiko sat in a clearing in meditation, though it was hard for her because her nature was to act on instinct and not meditate on things. It was at the behest of Jordan that she tried to do this mainly because wolves tended to be too much like her, if one of them lost their cool, she would have to keep hers... still. Jordan had told her that he believed she could do it (though when she had left he made a face that made it seem like even he couldn't predict the outcome) so she would do her best to gain their alliance.​

​

Elijah hesitated briefly, staring at the blue pill in Ashley-May's hand. He trusted her implicitly, though he didn't like the idea of dulling himself even further. Still, the pain in his abdomen had flared up again and he wasn't much good to anyone in his current state regardless. He smiled, reaching out to take the tablet and the offered glass of water, washing the pill down and draining the glass at the same time. Ash's offer to help him into some clothes was too tempting to pass up -- it would make him feel like less of an invalid nothing else. He knew it might be a tad awkward for both of them, but she had just helped him wash.

"I'd appreciate that," he said. "Will packed some things for me when I felt up to it," he said, gesturing toward the duffel stashed alongside his bed.

​

Will nodded in agreement with Mackenzie's assessment of Ashley-May's behavior. There was no telling how the pregnancy could affect her emotional state, even if it was "conventional", to say nothing of this one in particular. As for Elijah, he was willing to give the man some room while he recovered and discuss any suspicions later.

"You don't think this is going to go well, right?"

William frowned. "No, I'm sure it won't. Neither of us are one of Joe's favorite people at the moment... and rightfully so. But we have an obligation," he said with a shrug.

​

Malcolm slowly approached the small clearing the held the kitsune. He was wary, often these things did not travel alone and he had little doubt there were more nearby, it was simple question of how many. He regarded it as it knelt in what looked like meditation, finding that for the moment it was only the two of them, he stepped through the shrubbery and into sight, clearing his throat to catch her attention. "Is there something I can help you with?"

​

Ashley-May nodded, thankful Eli was willing to let her help be more comfortable. She was worried about his resistance to help, it would only hinder him in the long run and she didn't think Will or Mac would be able to convince him to sway away from his current course. She looked to where he directed and found the duffel bag. "You know," She said as she brought the bag to a chair to riffle through it. "You'll heal and feel a whole lot better if you let the nurse's do their job." She pulled out various articles of clothing until she found something that would be suitable; a pair of cotton pajama pants and a t-shirt.

She returned to the bedside and set them down. "I get that you don't want to be a burden and it can be embarrassing to have people do things for you but the more you fight help the longer you'll be stuck like this." He'd given Ash his permission for help and she was intent on completing the task. She deftly untied the gowns she had put on him earlier, leaving them and the blanket on his lap before rolling up the t-shirt and holding it open so he could slip his arms and head through the appropriate holes. Once down she slipped it down his torso. "You need to let us do the work so it doesn't hurt." She continued on, lowering the back of the bed so he was now laying down again. She regarded him carefully, having little doubt that the pain killer she had given him was doing it's work.

"I get you might not want Sandy or any of the other pretty nurses in here helping you, but at the very least let... " She paused, collecting the pants and carefully rolling back the blanket to expose his feet and calves. "What does Mac call her? The night nurse Norma? Oh!" She exclaimed and laughed. "Nurse Ratchet. At least let her and I help you, right?" She slipped the legs of the pants over his feet, gently drawing them up under the blankets, once at his hips she looked at him directly. "Don't move, don't lift, done budge. You'll hurt yourself." Delicately but firmly her hands went to work and soon enough she had the pants around his waist. She returned the blanket to cover his legs, bringing up the top over his abdomen to his chest. She took his hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. "You can sleep, Eli. Rest and relax. I'll be here to make sure you're safe, alright?"

​

Obligation. Mackenzie hated the word in it's use now, because she was the reason they were obligated to check on Joe. She was the one that started the Chase scouting the Pack quest and she deserved all the rage Joe had. As much as Will wanted to be partnered in his, she had cornered him, brought it up on a whim and hadn't even consulted him. She knew Joe would likely lash out at both of them. She expected it really, and had no intention of telling him to stop. She had sent his family out into danger for 'good cause' but she understood had the situation been reversed, had it been Ashley being sent out, or Will, she would react the same way.

As they approached the Barracks she stopped just outside and looked to Will. "Maybe I should go alone?" She said, and cursed herself for voicing it the way she had. She had wanted it to sound confident when really it sounded exactly how she felt; nervous.

​

Elijah didn't resist Ashley-May as she dressed helped him dress, nor did he have the energy to reply to what she was saying as she did so. The pill had taken effect quickly and he could feel his eyelids beginning to droop as she helped him into his shirt and lowered the back of the bed. As she mentioned Nurse Ratchet, he couldn't help but let out a throaty chuckle. "If there was any doubt about you being a great mother," he murmured, "it's gone after that speech." He was cut off as she started on the pants, somehow a more awkward proposition than the assisted bathing had been. Even so, he nodded at her command to not move a muscle as she slid the sweats into place.

Back in actual clothing for the first time since the Trial and under the ever-increasing effects of that magical blue pill, he found himself truly relaxed. Ashley-May's voice cut through the encroaching fog as he turned to face her, feeling her hand wrap around his own.

"You can sleep, Eli. Rest and relax. I'll be here to make sure you're safe, alright?"

Elijah felt that warmth in his chest again in that moment he knew it wasn't something he could chalk up to the morphine drip or even the tablet she just given him. In that moment, he knew exactly how he felt. Already nearly half-asleep, any usual inhibitions were gone as he smiled and took her hand, bringing it gently toward himself as he leaned down to place a rather non-platonic kiss on her knuckles. Leaning back into his bed, he squeezed her hand, eyelids finally closing. "Those 'pretty' nurses have nothing on you, you know," he murmured drowsily -- his sleep-addled brain had intended the comment jokingly, but it came out very genuine instead. Elijah didn't have any time to dwell on it before slumber finally took him.

​

"Maybe I should go alone?"

William shook his head. "Like it or not, we're in this together," he said, giving Mac a reassuring squeeze of the hand before reluctantly breaking the contact. He hadn't missed the slight anxiousness in her voice, the break in her normally solid composure. "You can stay here if you like," he offered. Not wanting to give Mackenzie a chance to argue, he turned toward the Barracks and closed the remaining distance to the front entrance, stepping inside to scan the sea of faces for Joe.

Having just come from the showers, Joe was currently crouched by his cot getting together both his and Chase's dirty laundry. A small yawn escaping him as he hadn't slept much the night before as was digging into one of his bags momentarily before shoving it back under the cot. Reaching under Chase's cot he swiped up a pair of pants left lying there and shoved it with the rest of the dirty laundry in the small round basket.

Standing up straight he reached into the back pocket of his jeans to pull out his phone, checking to see if there were no missed calls or texts from Chase then slipped it back in. Joe had already planned on stopping by the home William and Mackenzie were living in to ask if there had been any word yet, but he had things to do before that.​

​

Ashley-May rolled her eyes at Eli's almost half slurred comment about her being, or would be, a good mother. At the very least there are three more adults willing to keep me in line. She thought to herself, remaining at Eli's besides waiting for the man to drift off before leaving, but he did something unexpected. He drew her hand to his lips and kissed it. The simple gesture startled her, but not for what he had done, but how it made her feel. She felt her stomach flutter and swell rise within her chest. She heard his slurred speech about the other nurses and was thankful when he drifted off he couldn't see the deep flush growing up her neck and along her cheeks.

She chastised herself for reacting that way, Eli was a flirtatious man on a good day, and she never fell for those types of comments or gestures ever. She accounted Eli's flirtation to the drugs, and her reaction? Supernatural offspring. That had to be the answer. Seeing that the man was not going to wake for some time, she released his hand and collected the dirty linen from the room to take to the laundry. She turned out the lights but left the room's door open; if he woke and called to her she wanted to be able to hear him. After the linens were discarded she went to the nursing station and convinced to two on staff to go get breakfast at the mess hall, she would take care of Eli.

​

Mackenzie was rather stunned at the suggestion that she avoid this conversation, she was going to protest and insist that she go it alone but the damned man was already striding to the barracks then within. She cursed his height as she jogged to catch up to him. She stepped through the entry way of the barracks and paused next to Will searching for Joe, almost wishing they had missed him, but it was not the case. She could see him preparing a bag and frowned, wondering if Joe was going to go after his son after all.

Himiko's eyes immediately snapped open and she turned her head to the voice and spoke slowly "I want to speak of an alliance between our respective groups, you know doubt can feel the same thing I do. The end is coming and my master wishes to stop it" she spoke before standing. She wasn't sure who this man was, but if she had to venture to guess, he was like her...second in command, a right hand of the Alpha.​

 

[Safton]

William caught sight of Joe near one of the beds, gathering up clothes into a basket. He smiled upon seeing Mac's frenzied dash to catch up, nodding to her as He approached Joe slowly, "Hey," he spoke up. "We just wanted to check in, see if you were interested in breakfast," he said. Will didn't want to offend the man with the casual offer, but he wasn't about to discuss the mission openly in the barracks.

Joe found his attention pulled from what he was doing, the man turning around to spot both William and Mackenzie with a rather disinterested look. "Councilman Hendrix," He stated sarcastically, "Surely you didn't just come here to offer food. To what do I owe the honor." The man placed his hands on his hips, it was clear they were here to check up on him. Most likely at Chase's request. "I'm afraid food isn't how you get on my good side, that only works with Chase." At the mention of his name Joe felt the need to ask as he looked between them, "Any word yet?"​

​

Malcolm was not surprised to hear the kitsune's desire, but he offered a non-committal shrug. "You are not the first to approach us with an offer of alliance, and I doubt we're the only that you've spoken to." He paused, glancing over his shoulder towards where he had left the pack and the Alpha before turning back to the woman. "It is something we may consider in the future, but until our current endeavors pan out, we are not interested." He knew if he brought this to Emile now the Alpha would out right deny the ktisune, but if he waited until after they were done with Vitae. "Come back to us in five days, we will have an answer for you then."

​

Mackenzie glanced between Joe and Will rather awkwardly, the father was inquiring about his son and she could only shake her head. "No, not yet." There was no point in giving him false hope; none of them knew if the pack would happily accept him in even with the offer the Alpha had apparently made with him. "But we have a call sign for him, so If we don't hear soon we'll get in touch."

​

Once the nurses were off she turned back to the empty Clinic, save for Eli. There was work to me done, menial tasks the Nurse's and Doctors typically left for last that she didn't mind doing it. She was neither, after all, nothing more than a volunteer orderly. She was thankful for the fact that they allowed her to help as much as she did. She may have attended medical school, may have only been months away from earning the title doctor, but she wasn't one. She dug out her iPod from the drawer at the nursing station where she kept it, she slipped in only one ear piece so she could hear if Eli called to her.

She got to work, distracted with music and trivial task's it was enough to make Ash forget her worries for the time being. She soon found herself singing contently as she unpacked and stocked cabinets and shelves, set up the linen to laundry, organized emergency kids, and filled out charts, happily lost in her own little word.

"You're right... we are also talking to the Vitae." she said without hesitation and brushed the hair out of her face. " My... associate is talking to them as we speak. Even if you do not accept the offer, if my associate is as cunning as I believe he is then they will accept. I'm not much for playing the field but five days is enough for things to change drastically" Himiko looked in the direction of the colony where Jordan was making his own pitch. "Not a threat, we have no intention of getting involved in this quarrel, we believe the end of the world more important, but from where I stand as a fighter, but can anyone really afford to give their enemy any kind of advantage?" she took a subtle step back, wolves weren't exactly known for their even tempers and if there was a response she'd rather not give up an extra step of preparation. " We also figured that it would be more acceptable to send Inari's second in commands than Inari himself. A god isn't subtle."

William nodded in agreement with Mac. "I dropped him off where he wanted yesterday, he made the area was clear before I left. He had a long run ahead of him... and he wouldn't want to contact us unless he had something to go on and could slip away unnoticed." He kept his tone calm and even, conveying confidence he didn't quite feel. "We'll give him a little more time before we make a move to contact him."

He was honestly surprised Joe's response to him hadn't been harsher; for all the anxiety Will felt, he knew Chase's father would be far more stressed by the situation... especially in the face of those who caused it.




Elijah slept deeply, though not soundly. Without Hypnos' intervention, his nightmares were plagued by images of Pan and the Wolves, chasing him endlessly through the forest. This time he didn't escape them; his efforts to fight back were impotent. They caught him and shot him full of arrows before they tore him to pieces -- his slumber was no protection from the pain in his subconscious.

His sleeping form writhed in the hospital bed as he moaned -- quietly at first and with increasing intensity.

Joe frowned and sighed in frustration, "If there's no news then you two have no reason to be here bothering me. I know my son, so I can hazard a guess as to why you're here. I'm not going to do anything to jeopardize Chase's safety so you don't have to worry about me going out there and getting involved." The older man glared at them momentarily as he stood his ground, "Unless we get word that something is wrong, then I don't suggest either of you try to get in my way." There was little anyone could do to stop him if things got worse.

The man spoke calmly though with an annoyed tone, coming back of If's and more to the current. "From what I hear councilman. The last thing you need is someone causing a scene with you being involved." It was a threat of the political kind. Joe was making his stance known and making it clear that he had no problem dragging them down if need be.​
