Conflicting Passions

[Kaitalish]

I look at the man as the cloud of taint envelops him.

"Accept my power." I say. "Accept it and the pain will end."

I turn on my heels and walk away.

[Ikue Ito]

I walked up to Lady Violet timidly. If I don't succeed in calming her down, well, I'm probably going to be in a lot of pain.

"I know what he did was wrong but...don't you think you're being just a bit too harsh?" I murmured.

[Brady]

" Blue bunnies! "

I yell as I sit up.

" Oh, hello. "

I rub my eyes

[Lady Violet]

"I have to get back to my office. I will deal with Riku later. And no, I am only looking out for Hikari."

In anger I teleport back to my office and get back to work. I am so angry. Maybe it is best that I went back to work.

[Kisa Higurashi]

"Oh, the rain stopped!" I exclaimed as I stood up. I smiled at Kai. "Do you want to find a place to eat now?"

[Kai]

Sure.

Kai stood up as well.

[Ikue Ito]

I sighed from relief. I was so glad that she didn't beat me up.

I walked to where Hikari and Riku were.

"How's Riku?"

[Hikari]

I step out of the shadow and look at Ikue and the spot where Lady Violet was previously. I smiled slightly and bit my lip.
"Well.. that went better than I thought." I muttered under my breath.
I saw Riku and rushed over to him. I checked his head and face for any bruises or anything. Then I checked other places as if I was a nurse.
I clucked and tsked and helped him up. I then moved to the fridge and took out something to drink. I glanced at Ikue.
"Would you like anything, Ikue?" I asked, with a friendly smile.
I looked at Riku and felt a bit guilty, poor guy. I ponder a bit and look down. I turn back to the drink and get two cups.

[Lysander Josef Bassarov]

"Ya, I'll try Pop. Good deal."

I get up and give him a bear hug.

"See what you can do if you just talk it out? You should meet her, shes really nice. You know what, I think the reason is that youre jealous."

I punch him lightly in the arm

"Hu?"

[Samuel]

After talking with Bassarov, Samuel went to the coffee shop and bought some coffee and a donut and sat down, enjoying the peace of the moment, contimplating his revenge a Red Infinity, and listening tho the all sounds around him.
"Oh, it's so nice to be alive."
Samuel takes another bite of his donut and sips his coffee in complete harmony and, for the time, ignorant to the world.

[Kuu]

"Alrighty. Well I am out of here. Call me when you need k?" I said and I warped my cloak around me and I dissapered out of sight.

[Valodya Bassarov]

Bassarov has some second thoughts, but, it will not hurt to see what Lysander is capable of.

"Just be carefuk." Bassarov warns.

"I could meet Anna sometime, and no, my life is complex enough. I am not going to make it more so by taking interest in your female friends."

[Lysander Josef Bassarov]

"Whatever you say. I'll do you proud, Dad! Now take care, sorry I didnt get to meet Mischa again. Bye!"

I step out of the house, and into the street. Now, where is she at? I stop and think for a moment.

[Damascus]

A mystrious young man walks among the rubble in the ruined part of town. He looks at all the heart-ache and keeps walking. Some people wonder what he's looking for, but then turn back to their own worries. Eventually, the young man finds what he's looking for, the still form of Dinonysus.
"What kind of trouble did you get into. Aren't you supposed to be the strongest dragon ever or someting?"

[Valodya Bassarov]

Bassarov watches him go, uncertain if he is taking the best approach to the situation.

He goes to the kitchen to get some juice and sees an attractive blonde girl waiting there at the table.

He recognises her as Anna Khordorkovsky, the daughter of a very wealthy and very corrupt Russian oil baron. He gets some juice and sits at the table.

"I know who you are and who your family is. You will not corrupt Lysander. He is younger than he looks. If you hurt him, I still have connections with Red Infinity. I would gladly see that you are sent to a forced labor camp...like your father"

Bassarov says coldly.
