"i wonder why you smell like a guy then...oh well, my nose must be acting up." I blow my nose in a tissue and keep on picking berries. i hope that she isn't seeing someone again. she didn't take that whole Bassarov thing very well.

I wrap my arm around her waist. "Hey did I ever tell you about the time I fought a Space Squid!"

Like, I just wish that Zex would give up on Hope and find someone his own age. He just annoys her. Not like me, she secretly is in love with me. I pull Zex away from Hope. "That kid can be like so annoying!" I start to pull off my shirt. "Hey want to see the scar from when Kuro killed me?"

"RRR..WHAT...DON'T ASK HIM ABOUT HIS FIGHTS RRR...I FOUGHT A SPACE SQUID. DONT YOU CARE, DONT YOU CARE ABOUT MY BATTLES?!" I can't believe she is showing interest in stupid Lemminkainen.

I take off my shirt and she examines the long black scar for a long time. Wow! She even runs her hand along it as she checks it out. "Yeah, it never healed. That was some battle...like how many thousand years ago was that? man, I can soooo not remember these things. He mopped the floor with me though. yeah, that was when I kicked the bucket. Death is really not a fun thing. I wonder how he was ever defeated?"

[shadow=red,left,300]I look closely at the black scar. I determine that although his wound was deep, Kuro never entered his body. He was never a host to the demon. I listen carefully to what the warrior has to say. He fought Kuro long ago when he first came to Earth. The scar is more of a mark of service. This warrior was marked for Kuro's return. He has been marked to be a follower. I touch the scar, and figure the mark can be removed. It makes sense why he and the others are so devoted to Hope. Maybe they have been marked by her as well. "The story of your battle interests me greatly."[/shadow]

"Yeah, like the wound still hurts sometimes. It feels really good when you touch it Hope...i like that a lot." I stand closer to her and touch her arm.

[shadow=red,left,300]The bear figured it out.
I quickly hit Lemminkainen in the back of the neck, and he falls to the ground. Before the space traveler can turn around, I grab him by the arm, and bang him on the side of the head. He too falls to the ground.
I face the Ursarian. He will be easy enough to deal with.
"How did you figure it out?" I ask him, still in the form of Hope.

"I guess i;m smarter than the average bear."
I will try out my new ability on him...the ability to make friends with anyone.
I shout out....
"Let's be frien.....d.."

[shadow=red,left,300]Before he can complete his attack...if it was to be an attack...I hit him with an intense psionic blast. He falls backwards and lands on the ground, hard. I hit him again with a second blast, and he does not move.
Now I can deal with Hope.

The magazine yeilded little entertainment, so I decide to join my friends in their berry picking adventure. I walk out the door, down the dirt path, to the berry patch.
What I see is strange and starling.
I see the bodies of my friends laying in the grass....and standing with them, is.....is myself. I rub my eyes to make sure that I am not having a nightmare.....
I stand there not sure what to do or say to the person that looks exactly like myself.

I don't quite know what to say. As he explains his name and takes off his shirt, I gasp again. He has been wounded so badly. He shouldn't be alive, let alone walking about. Peter... and The Owl. Two names separated by such different meanings. It is a pity that he seems intent on taking the second. He is like no man I have ever met before. He is so intense, yet so calm. I don't understand him one bit.
He throws a metal disc at the door and it becomes enveloped in light. Such strange activity. I remain sitting and thinking. My hand instinctively reaches into my pocket and I run my fingers over the familiar beads. In such a foreign situation, their familiarity is calming and reassuring.
"Peter, Cephas, you have so many wounds. Perhaps you should sit and let them heal." I stand, motioning to the chair. He doesn't seem to respond right away. I stand there thinking of other things that have been consuming my thoughts. I decide to address them. "Peter, I was wondering... why is it that you have been there every time I have been in trouble? I... I don't understand. I am not well known. I am not a person of prominance, that I should be protected so fiercely. Are.. are you an angel?"
His strange behavior and violent ways make me question this even as I ask it, but Michael is a warrior. Angels are strong defenders sent to protect those whom God favors. It would explain why his wounds do not effect him. It is not an illogical thought.

Peter remains silent for a long time, then speaks slowly, "I am not an Angel, no. I... I saw you at the soup kitchen while I was in the city on a mission. I couldn't stop stareing. After awhile I had to leave for another mission but I came back and offered you the food. I thought it would help your work..."
He pauses and rubs his hand over his heart. Regenerated organs always felt odd at first.
"My wounds will heal in time, do not waste your power on me."
He sits down on the bed, taking off his glasses and laying the on the table.
"I wanted to help you. Your a good person, a selfless person. And your being chased by Infinity because of your beliefs. I didn't want anything bad to happen to you. So, I keep trying to save you."
