I take him up to my room, slam the door behind me, and lock it.
"Behind these doors, I will show you the great lie. You're right, I'm not a vixen. I couldn't be one if I tried. But this is a world of illusions, and you of all people should know that all I have to do is keep up appearances."

I think I understand now, she plays the vixen so she can feel more in control, to have guys eating out of the palm of her hands.
"We all have our own persona underneath our outward appearances, what's your persona? What are your dark and dirty secrets that you're trying to keep with the public? And don't worry, I'm good at hiding things."

"If you want to know the truth, I'm searching for something. Or maybe many things. Parts of myself that I have somehow lost over the years. They are lost in the oblivion in people's coldness towards me."
I recline on the couch, and consider some things.
"I'm not sure what I'm looking for, I've been in many relationships. Most with guys who were jerks to me, who used me, who didn't understand me. So it just became a game. I almost took pleasure in breaking up people's relationships because of the power I could gain from it. My last relationship was with a married man, but I got nothing, so I'm still searching."
I look off into the distance, not sure what else to say.

"Often times, when we are searching, we don't like what we find, and try to hide it, deny it, bury it. I always thought that I was missing something, and spent my life searching for it. One day, I realized that it wasn't missing, it was right in front of my face, but I kept looking away from it, like we are told to look away from the sun..."
I sit next to Victoria.
"I perpetuate illusions. I try to spin off what truth looks the best for everyone. Maybe what you're looking for is right in front of you, but you're afraid that if you look at it for too long, you'll go blind."
Her life is a metaphor for my job.

"It's all too hard to contemplate right now. I have a tanning appointment tommorow, I can think about this when I'm there. I'm tired, I'm going to bed. You can sleep on the couch. Goodnight Mister Futsu."
I walk into my bedroom, and I'm asleep before my head hits the pillow.

It had just occured to me that I didn't even have a place to stay in Helsinki, so it's not like I can turn this down. I am very easy to accomidate. I sleep fully clothed on the couch. I have to see the damage done to this city for myself.
I set my watch for 5:00. No rest for the wicked.

I wake up at 8am, Mr. Futsu is long gone. I get a text message from Moira at the League of the Godless. I am told that Gregory is staying at this very five star hotel that I am. She even sends me his room number, which is only a few floors down from my room.
I go out the window, and scale down the wall. I cut a hole in his window with the glass cutter, and silently sneak into his room. I pull out my 9mm Baretta, and my 9mm Walther ppk, both are silenced, and have enchanted bullets, which changes their chemical makeup so they are unlike any element found on earth, which is certain to do some damage to angels. I silently shoot him in the head with both guns, repeatedly. Then when I am convinced that his brain has been blown clear out of his skull, I proceed to target other areas on his body, like his chest and groin.
Leaving nothing but a corpse and bloody sheets, I scale back up the wall, go back into my room, and leave for work.

"Yes, I was up all night," Kai said, "Don't worry I am a vampire, well half vampire....."
He sat back down on the chair.

I sat back down on the bed.
So you're part vampire? Vampires are immortal...how old are you? I then realized that I shouldn't have asked that. Oh. You don't have to answer that question...

Nikke races down the street trying to run with the shadows. She still hadn't fully mastered that skill. Nikke had spent over 3 months training in the other worlds.
There weren't so many humans aorund on the streets nowadays. You could probably find a immatrol person easily if you wanted.
Nikke stops in a dark alley and kneels down. She had to find one side to stay with. Rebels or Red Infinity.. or maybe she should stay as a fighter for hire.
Nikke stands up and puts her twin blades away. Some reason it was easier and faster to run with them in hand. Nikke walks down the street.
She hated her being 1/1 human and demon...

"I am on a mission right now. Put Genovia on the line..."
She does
+++++++++++++
"Genovia, why are you acting like this? You did the sme thing to Chihira. I have given you ample opportunity to show that you care. Please leave my home and Celeste..."

Post by Valodya Bassarov on Apr 19, 2004 16:58:39 GMT -5
Bassarov sits in the cell, his body sore from last night's beatings. This is the first time that the League of the Godless have captured him. He was always a political threat to Red Infinity, but never a religious one. He stares at the walls waiting for something to happen.
"I just don't see why I am here..."
He then thinks of the Chi Kage.
"Would Keitoleinen truly attack them as Moira implied?"

When Keitoleinen learns who was captured, he couldn't be more pleased. Even though Bassarov's views are not so distant from those of the League's, he will provide useful information to them about the Chi KAge.
"Moira, I want you to torture information out of Bassarov!"

Kaschei returns to his beholder. The large floating eye that has been watching Jareth and Omadon.
"What have you seen, my pet?"
The optical creature responds telepathically:
"I have seen that your assistant iand the necromancer have become involved with one enother."
Kaschei punches the eye. He is angry. Not because he wants Jareth. No, his heart is too cold for that. But because he fears losing power over her.
"Omadon, I know what he is doing. I doubt he truly cares, he is just trying to usurp my power. Drat!"
Kaschei sends a telepathic message to Jareth.
"Jareth my darling, how goes the mission? I just wanted to check up you. It feels so empty here when you are away..."

"Long time," Kakashi appears out of thin air infront of Nikkle, "No see. What's been happening Niky?" His body is covered with wrappings, all the skin of his face and hands hidden under the deep blue. His short gray hair is wild and unkept.
His eyes shine a dull red within the head wrappings. "Haven't seen you since the woods. Still fighting for hire?"
