Alright.
Confident she has the idea now Coyote speeds up, breaking into a fast trot, his hooves ringing against the ground.
It's nice out today. Do you get out much?

"Some sort of poisonous tendrels? I don't know."
I stomp out my cigarette.
"Do you always threaten women when they are alone and defenseless, stranger?"

"I enjoy the outdoors so I go outside as much as I can. I also need sunlight for photosynthesis, so that keeps me outdoors as well. So yes, I get out a lot."
Riding a horse is much faster than traveling by foot. The Ministry of Science will be glad that I recieved help.
"For your service to me, I will make sure the Ministry of Science rewards you."

"Save your breath human, I haven't a emotional side you can appeal to." Holding the hand with the black threads at his side Roland stops a few feet from Natalia. "Tell me this: are the Godless preparing for an attack?"

"Go ahead and do your worst. I am loyal to Red Infinity. You will spill my blood before I spill our secrets."
I am not afraid of him. I could die and finally have an undestanding of this universe. The door has always been open for me.

Coyote climbs a low hill and breaks into full gallop as he reachs the bottom, flying along the low lands at great speed. Nothing I really need Persephone. How about you have dinner with me and we call it even?

"Dinner with me? I guess that would be okay. I should ask my supervisor though. I don't want to do anything that goes against the Ministry of Science."
We finally arrive in the boggy lands, and we stop when his hooves sink into the soggy ground. I jump off of him and start exploring. Bog plants are among the most interesting.
I collect samples of bladerwort, sundew, venus fly trap, skunk cabbage, and others. I do not see any Lady Slipper's though.
"Look for stalks of three bright pink blooms."

Roland slowly removes his glove from the smoking hand. As the leather comes away the threads grow thicker and wave quicker. "As you wish Natalia. We will do this, as they say, the hard way."
Roland draws a knife out of his coat and makes single quick cut across his pant. Blood wells at the wound. "Did you know that angelic blood has interesting powers? It's a part of major healing potions." Roland flucks his hand, a few dots of his blood splash onto the woman's face. "But then, I'm slightly different from most angels."

Coyote shifts to human form and looks around. He crouches by the edge of a pool of water. "I'll check around." Diving forward he changes in the fall and a large snake hits the water instead of a human. The snake swims off, searching the bog.

I use my aparition powers to turn into a phantom like form. The blood hits the ground where my tangible body once stood.
"You really should pick on someone who give a d'amn about angels. You are not my concern. Neither is the Chi Kage."
I float like mist over the water of the Neva River.

"Here we are!" I discover a few Lady's Slippers growing behind a fallen tree. I pick them and store them in a zip loc bag. "Well, mission accomplished. Thankyou Coyote, you were a great help."

"Hum," says Roland, replacing his glove, "She knows more than I thought at least."
Shadows race along the water's surface, and a image of Roland, devoid of color and form, a image made from shadows, rises off the surface, floating along before Natalia.
"But you are a concern of both me and my family. It is a simple question Natalia and you will save yourself much grief if you simply answer me."

The nose of a snake breaks the surface by Persphone's feet and a moment later Coyotes is stepping out of the swamp. "All in a day's work. So, you have some free time then?"

"Fine, it is not like you can do anything anyway. You are all going to be crushed and soon. What more can I say? Maybe if you join Ukko or retreat from Earth forever, you can save your sorry city. But it will be destroyed. You can count on that."
I hover over the water looking out at the city of St. Petersburg. I could care less what happens to this angel or to their city. I know what they do, and have done. I don't need to be a member of Red Infinity to bear a deep hatred towards them.

"Turn into an eagle and take me back to the Ministry of Science. I do not have the rest of the day off. But you may join me in my lab. I have to bring these samples there."
Working for Red Infinity is just that: work. But now that I have this new body I feel a new connection to Red Infinity and a new desire to serve them.
"Sorry Coyote, I really don't get much time off."
