Painful Acceptance

[Hedeon]

Hedeon smiles, and approaches Pakkanen, wrapping his arms around him and whispering into his ear "I have blossomed."

He kisses his cheek and takes a step back, still smiling.

[Illidan]

"What about you mother? Do you still work for Red Infinity and do you believe in any gods?" Illidan asks his mother eagerly. He can see why he and his father do not get along. Illidan enjoys working for Red Infinity and places no value on traditions or culture. This puts him in conflict with his mother as well.

The man is now past me, further into the room than I am. His desire to find Valodya Bassarov clouded his judgement. I step in between him and the door.

"Oh yes, that's right, isn't it? I suppose it is very hard for you do see anything in here, isn't it?"

I dissipate into mist before he can respond and call out from the air, "See me now?"

I reform right behind him, and whisper into his left ear, my lips touching the skin of it, "How about now?"

In seconds the gun is flung to the floor and I have one long, sharp fingernail against his throat.

"Now then, mind telling me your name, o trusting one?"

[Lysander Josef Bassarov]

"Sure, I'd love to move to Helsinki. I thin kit would be fun. Ill se about your group. It might be the thin gfor me, you never know until you try."

I glance at the Bedroom. Anna is still sleeping. She must be tired.

"When you say move to Helsinki, where do you suggest I move to?"

[Pakkanen]

Pakkanen is a little shocked to see the fairy incarnation Sasha here at the League of the Godless. He does what he can to mask his alarm.
"It is good to see that you finally decided to join Red Infinity. That is why you were created, Hedeon. I am also glad to see that you are a full fairy now. There are not many of us who work for Red Infinity. Together we can destroy religion and serve the greater good that is Red Infinity. Red Infinity, the one that brings together all peoples and makes them equals."

[Mikhael Nadyezhda (Mischa)]

Everything happens so fast, and I hear the clinking of my gun on the ground just as the dust settles.

nuts.

"So... You really weren't kidding." I say, swallowing hard and trying not to imagine how close to death I am. Does she have amnesia again?

"My name is Mischa, I am Valodya's comrade, and lover..." I respond while trying to catch my breath. "What have you done with him..?"

[Valodya Bassarov]

"You could have your own apartment at the rebel base, Lysander." Bassarov suggests.

"There are plenty open! Oh, I would love for you to move to Helsinki. There is so much going on here politically that you could learn so much." Bassarov says excitedly.

[Lysander Josef Bassarov]

"Ok. Sounds good. Im up for it. Thanks for the offer. I'll try to learn as much as I can. I really appriciate it, Dad."

I'm actually kinda exited. It will be fun living in Helsinki.

[Kaieka]

Mischa... The name is immediately recognizeable. I have heard about Mischa. It was Mischa that killed me.

My nail bites into the soft flesh of his neck, as I draw a bloody line down toward his adam's apple.

"That was a most unwise profession, Mischa. You have more than one strike against you.
I could have forgiven the fact that you pulled a gun on me, many have in the past. I could have gotten past the fact that you are the lover of the man that I have just become enthralled with and came to take him away from me...
...But I just can't get over the fact that you killed me.
It is a favor that I would very much like to repay."

I hold him close to my body and run my tongue up his neck, taking the blood into my mouth. I get to his ear and give it a little suck, before sinking my teeth into the lobe.

"A woman scorned is a dangerous thing, Mischa, a very dangerous thing... and a woman killed is even worse."

I have one hand still poised at his throat, the other wrapped around his waste, nails biting into the skin on his side.#nosmileys

[Hedeon]

Hedeon takes a bow.

"Yes. I came to join." If there was one thing he learned from Sasha, it was that Red Infinity didn't give a d**n about the people. Just what he was looking for.

"So where's my office?" Hedeon asks presumptuously.

[Valodya Bassarov]

"Let's get you a room at the rebel base." Bassarov says.
He leads Lysander to an empty room at the base and gives him the keys.

"You can have room number 10."

[Pakkanen]

"You will have to talk to Keitoleinen about that, but I will take you to his office if you like."

Pakkanen doesn't have his own office and is not sure that Keitoleinen would give Hedeon his own. He keeps his mouth shut.

[Lysander Josef Bassarov]

"Okay, room number 10, cool. Hey, a freind of mine was looking for a place to stay. Do you have an extra room?"

I think it would be fun for Anna to try to live in a small apartment, instead of her huge house. It might benifit her. She would love the idea!

[Valodya Bassarov]

"Sure, your friend can have room number 9. Here are the keys."

Bassarov hands the keys to Lysander.
"Would you like to get something to eat?"

[Zinn]

Zinn walks up to Bassarov. all traces of how she was feeling a few hours ago are gone.

"Hello Bassarov. It is nice to see that you are back safely. Tell Zero that she has my thanks for helping to retrieve Antero Black. Where is Sasha Kropotkin?" Zinn asks. She uses their full names in an attempt to distance them from herself.
