I watch as Usha shakes the rattle.
He won't coo or do anything but cry, eat, sleep, go to the bathroom, and look around. He'll start to make sounds later on. But he's just a newborn.

"I'm on my lunch break."
I try to place the man's face. I have seen him somewhere before... ah yes, the soup kitchen. He was the one that was with that girl that was so captivating.
"Where is... uh... Chastity? Doesn't she usually stay in your wake?"

Peter's right eyebrow twitches above the lens of his dark glasses. "She went where she wanted, I was just there to protect her... She's dead. A Dragon from the League of the Godless killed her."

We continue to watch the television, and the reporter announces that Mr. Futsu will soon give a speech on the situation. Mr. Futsu is the director of public grievences, and Red Infinity's spokesman.
"Seriously, do they expect people to buy this?!" I say angrily at the TV.
"Your brother could be alive, you never know...Red Infinity agents are always evacuated before some distaster occurs."

"Oh."
I look down at the ground.
"There was something special about her. She seemed to radiate beauty and ... something. She was enchanting. It is too bad that death takes ones such as that."

"I don't know anything about babies...since I was an only child. Hmm, well, new born babies are really boring then."
I put the rattle away.

"Death does take people, I've spoken with it before. Other mortals kill people. Chastity was killed by a dragon, not by Death. And that Dragon will die for it, along with all others of it's kind, and all others who contributed to the ending of Chastity's life."
Peter pushes his glasses up his nose and watches Sephos. "Your half angel. Usually they don't smoke... or cut themselves."

"If he gets too hard to control, send Set to me at once. For now, I am going to rest. Thankyou Riku."
I leave the room and go to my own. I feel a bit more relieved.

"Well, I am only half angel. Besides, my dad wasn't exactly what you'd consider "sent from heaven" If I were to label him, I might use the term "fallen angel"."
I'm ticked off at the mention of my heritage. I hate my b'astard father and everything having to do with him. I like to forget that I am at all related to angelic beings. As for him knowing about the cutting... that ticks me off too. I take out a new cigarette and light up.
"So... you're the vengeful type it seems. You must have had a thing for that girl, not that I blame you. She often haunted my thoughts. Were you two... an item?"
I exhale a puff of smoke. The fabric of my shirt clings to my bloody arm.

Peter's eyebrow twitches again. This isn't any of her business. "No. Chastity was a pure person. I made the mistake of falling in love with someone who could never return my feelings."

I walk towards the door, but hear a soft voice inside of me.
You should follow Peter's orders. You need to be loyal to him now.
"Shut up!! I am not listening to you. I don't even know how you got inside of me...LEAVE!!"
"You are such an angry woman, but you serve the one god now, I will help you find peace through HIM.
I hate when the girl talks to me. I feel like I am being controled.
"You don't own me. I hate Peter...I am going to find David."
I tune out the voice and leave the room.

"Tell me about it! I just fu'cked some guy... a GUY! That likes another guy... I don't seem to pick them right either."
This is getting old. I don't feel like chatting. I feel like being alone and being self destructive. But, I will be civil. I hold out my pack of cigarettes.
"Want a smoke? Courtesy of the guy I was with tonight."

"Oh Sheesh, I just remembered something!! Louhi did not come back alone. If she is here, her two guardians must be here! You see, her "daughters" always travel with her. But her daughters are long dead, so they are decendants of her daughters!! Yikes, this really is not good, since each holds a portion of her power!!" I stand up. I wonder if any of the rebels were listening to what I just said....
"Cripes, this is not good at all!!"

"I don't smoke cigarettes anymore. There's nothing to gain from doing so."
Peter turns away, "Your beginning to annoy me angel. I have work to do and speaking to a addict demi-being is not part of it."
