I watch as Stalin leaves and wonders how he knows. It does not matter. Trotksy is a has been, and he is safer with me than with rebels. At least I can politically isolate him. In reality, I am doing a service to Red Infinity.
I return to my work. I don't care for Stalin because of his oversized ego and ambitions.
It is not power which corrupts but fear. Fear of losing power corrupts those who wield it and fear of the scourge of power corrupts those subject to it.

When the paperwork is done, I leave my office and teleport to the Ministry of Defense. I enter Huey's office. "Good day Mr. Newton. I am making my rounds and visiting the various Ministries. I thought I would pay you a visit to see how things are going here."

I eat the soup that I made for myself and decide that I will try to find Lena once again. I start to feel a little sick, maybe there was something wrong with the soup. I have sharp pains in my stomach, and fall to my knees in the living room.
It is then that I see Lena on the floor passed out.
"Oh no...what's happening..."
I am overcome by the poison and I pass out as well.
Kurjuus notices that Peter is busy fighting an angel, and that the android left. This means he can return to the farmhouse and see if the poison worked.
He enters the house and sees that Chai Ling and Lena are both passed out. He grabs one in each of his arms and flies them back to the League of the Godless, putting them in a cell. He reports to Keit that the mission is done.

After is time away from life, Lysander decides it is a good time to return, if only for a short while. He walks into the rebel base (is there still a rebel base anywhere? Its been far too long) and sits down on a couch (are couches still in existance?).
He waits around to see someone.
I'll leave later to find my Dad. Maybe I can even see Anna...?
Even though Lana was far from her sister Lana felt the poison. She grabbed her throat and as she walked a little ahead Shade she fell to the ground and was passed out.
Lena stirs in her cell, groaning. Her arms wrap around her stomach as she opens her eyes half way. If it hadn't been for the pain in her stomach and head, she probably would've thought she was having another nightmare. She tries to sit up and sees Chai. She fails at sitting up, so lays in her cell, turning her head so she could look at Chai who was in the next cell.
"Chai..?" She calls weakly. Lena begins to get scared a bit, where was she? She had been in the living room before passing out..
Raine jumped up a bit when the felt someone holding their hands over her eyes but she didnt jumpout of her seat.she put herhands by her side but she realized it was just a prank.
"uhh......i dont have a clue."She said honestly.

Violet appeared and caught Huey off guard, as he was reclined with his feet up and smoking a cigar. Huey put his feet off the desk and sat up straight in his chair with lightning speed and then proceeded to put out his cigar in the ash tray.
"Lady Violet, it's great to see you again." he said, standing up hurriedly and bowing. Seeing him rush to look professional must have been an amusing sight.

Dante smiles to himself. "Oh, Raine, I'm hurt. I leave for only a short while, and you've already forgotten all about me." He said into her ear. "Here's a hint, I have alot of problems and I'm a friend." He felt light-hearted, it wouldn't last, but he planned to enjoy it while it was there. Eventually, he'd be recalled back to LIF, but he hadn't so far, so he was going to enjoy his time off, he might not get to see his friend for a long time after this.

Peter stops dead, as still as a statue. His glasses flash with information. "Kurjuus. Godless!" The Hunter is in motion, moving so fast a blasts a line in the snow getting back to the house.
Chai and Lena were gone, their signals weren't in the house at all. Kurjuus's ping was fading fast. The thing must have flown off. Peter steps back out and raises his eyes to the sky, placing his hand against the rim of his glasses.
Using the house as a starting point, Peter follows the signal from Kurjuus and plots the angel's course and speed. "Godless HQ. And he's likely there already. Time is moving. Action is required." The snow around Peter swirls upwards, caught in a updraft of energy as Peter charges up.
The blast as he takes to the air is invisible accept for the circle of melted snow he leaves behind. He was not about to be made a fool of by the Godless yet again.

"Right on the dot." He says, lifting up his hands from her eyes and placing one hand on the back of the bench. He leaped over it, feet swinging out horizontally, and then he landed on the bench sitting next to Raine. "I've been waiting hours on end to see you again, and I'd thought you'd left or something, when you've probably been sitting here this whole time." He said, smiling down at her. "I wanted to get to know you better than just the really quiet girl who'll listen to me. Besides, I might get called away at any time, so now's the best time do ask questions." He said, standing up, and pulling Raine up too, whether she liked it or not. "But I thought that we could go for a walk too. Helsinki is a beautiful place after all, and I'd like to enjoy the sights before I have to go. Do you need to grab a coat?" He asked.
Raine listens but one thing bothers her. "Get called back to what?"She asked nicely before scooting closer to Dante.She didnt feel cold and didnt even remember to put her coat on today.SHe looked around and saw that her and Dante were the only ones in the lobby.
