Rites of our Bitter Meetings

[Roland the Black Hearted]

"Our problems amount to much more than that." Roland slides out of a pool of shadow, rising into a shape and taking form from darkness. "I confermed, the Godless are planning a strike. But, Kel won't be fighting himself, just every other Godless in the League."

[Flask: Lord of Fire]

Flask considers this, "Those aren't good odds. We're tough Greg but the entire League of the Godless? That's some serious trouble. And if Ukko is chipping in then there's sure to be more."

[Roland the Black Hearted]

"There is also the matter of the Drow Talice and she super soldiers. She upgraded at last four of the government's soldiers into freaks like I haven't seen since LIF showed up."

[Gregory: The Storm Raven]

"Grim tidings. But if the gods are not fighting then I believe we may just have a chance. We'll need to prepare for this. Summon Shina and Kuin back here and meet me in chambers in two hours."

As the others move off Gregory addresses Surma and Tensuo in turn. "Surma, I'd like you there too. We'll need all the help we can get. Tensuo, assuming we survive this, we'll help you deal with Satsujin. Alright, both of you feel free to see the city... while you can."

[Calithin]

" You know what Kakashi...being an imortal has it's ups and downs, like everything else does, I'm afraid the element of surprise is lost on me. "

* I look outside again. *

" Ever heard the term, a deal with the devvil, or... perhaps some one saying they sold thier soul to the devvil. You actually did it didn't you, you sold your soul to bring her back, and now you have to kill me to get it back....thats it isn't it.

I know it is, thats a shame..."

* I take a sip of my tea. *

[Hatake Kakashi]

"Asstute aren't you Cal? Ya, I sold ym soul to bring Fascia and my son back to life and now she's f**king Kel. Kel's your dad right? If this wasn't so very depressing it would be funny. But enough of that, your just the first on my list and I want this job over with." Kakashi stands up and walks towards the door, "Goodbye Cal."

[Hope98]

I watch as Kakashi leaves for the door and analyze the situation. It appears that he does not want to fight, it is only a commitment to Ukko for a favor from the god. I look out the window and see that it is getting later.

I order another iced cafe latte and drink it quietly.

[Usha]

Brady and Ii go into the other theater and sit down so we can watch Elliot the Elephant together. I like Elephants so this should be really fun. I just wish that Kisa and Brady would have gone to this movie with us.

[Moira]

I walk into Akira's room.

"Now that you work for the League of the Godless, we should train together for the big battle coming up!"

[Fate]

I wander into an Ursarian village. Everyone carries on with their daily lives, oblivious to the danger that Red Infinity intends for them. I walk up to an Ursarian woman and grab her by the neck. I say nothing, but smile. I then break her neck. I leave her broken body in the middle of the street as I continue to hunt this pathetic sub human race.

[Haplo]

When Persephone was not in her lab, I checked the gardens for her. Finally I found her working on a float with a dark haired man. I am not sure if I like her transformation. She used to be so cheerful, now she only works. I walk over to her and put a hand on her shoulder. "Persephone, who is this?" I ask in regard to the strange man she is with.

[Julma Varjo]

I sit on Lady Violet's desk, invisible. I never speak to her, but now I am going to start. She is always so stressed and alone. "Violet, you should leave Lin-Sat, he only causes you worry." I say in a whisper. She looks around but sees nothing. "Leave Lin-Sat..."

[Fascia]

An aid to Keitoleinen shows me my new training area. I pick up some weights and start lifting. I want to be in great shape for the fight. It has been a long time since I had to fight. Too long.

[Dahlia]

I see that Persephone is working on a float. I walk over to her to admire her work.
"That must be for the May Day parade. Mind if I give you a hand?" I grab some moss and stuff it into the metal frame of a dinosaur.

[Lady Violet]

I hear a voice in my head. I look around and see nothing. That's it, I've been working too many hours. I need to go for a walk.

I leave my office and try not to be disturbed by the voice.
