-We leave the kitchen and head into the night.
-The moon makes her skin silvery white, like bone or tooth. Smooth, polished...delicate.
-I would like to eat her. But I am not hungry now.
-It is cold.
-I grab her hand.
-"Your hands are so cold. Are you alright?"

I put my hands in my pockets.
"It is winter out. Can you imagine having to live out on the streets, in this cold? There are so many that do. My hands being cold is of little consequence."

-"Yes, those poor. You always think about them."
-I look around boredly.
-She looks cold.
-"Would you like to go to my house? You could warm up."
-I need to check on Sonjia anyway.

-"Not far at all."
-It starts to snow.
-"I could make you something warm to drink."

"That is very kind of you. I don't know if I should though, the morning comes early. And tomorrow will be a very full day."

-"It would be conveinent. You could stay there, and we could go to the kitchen together in the morning. I have many rooms. And another woman is staying there. We would not be alone."
-I walk up to my door and enter.
-"Come in. I won't hurt you."

I step inside his home. It should be fine if there is another woman there as well. I am interesting to see who she is. Is Aries married?
"I did not think that you would hurt me." He shuts the door behind me, and something within me challenges my statement. I ignore my inner urgings and look around. Aries lives in a very nicely furnished house. It is hard for me not to think of those people, freezing out in the streets. How can people live so lavishly when some have so little?

Kaschei returns to his spell book. He memorized another spell today so he is pleased.
From a distant apartment he can hear The Doors blasting over a radio. He closes the window and begins to chant his new spell.
A demon appears to do his bidding.
"This is excelent," Kachei thinks.
He goes to his crystal and spies on Jareth. She just arrived in Lucern.

"I am glad you trust me."
-It is strange to be trusted. I am not sure if I know how to react.
-"Let me make you some hot chocolate."
-I make the cocoa and consider slipping some drugs in there. Something to loosen her up or put her to sleep. I crush some pills in my hand. But something stops me.
-"Here you are, nice and warm."
-I watch her sip the cocoa.
-"I will leave you now. I do not sleep here. I sleep in a cave north of here."

He leaves, and I am left alone in the strange, large house. I do not see the other woman, she must be sleeping somewhere. I sit down on a couch and look around. I wonder at why Aries would go and sleep in a cave when he has this home to live in. It seems like such a waste. I start to do my evening prayers, being sure to pray for Aries, that he will come to know true salvation.
I curl up on the couch. I do not feel comfortable looking around the house for a place to sleep. I will just sleep on the couch. It is very warm inside the house. It is nice. The kitchen is drafty and cold. This place is very warm.
I smile as I drift off to sleep. I know that Peter was mistaken about Aries. He is a good... Dragon. He would never have hurt all of those people. I cannot believe it, not after I have been around him. He is so kind. He will make a good worker for the kitchen. It is wonderful to see how the Lord provides. Tomorrow will be a good day. It will be nice to have someone to work side-by-side with. I do not feel so alone.

When i hit the hard ground with my butt i realize i must be in Lucern.
"darn , i gotta get the hang of this." Jareth grumbled.
Just a she muttered those words she noticed a commotion over to the side of her. There seemed to be a woman involved in an altercation with what seemed to be a werewolf.
"Great, just great. Neither one of them is who i'm looking for. I must've let some other things through when i was sayin Riku. Maybe one of them can help me out, or vice versa. And if it gets out of hand i'll just take care of myself and move on."
Not really fearing what might happen Jareth strode out towards where the two were fighting.

Virgal flicks away a cigarette and watches Aries leave the home. Time to track the Dragon to his lair.
Virgal smiles and runs a hand throug his hair as he watches Aries go. He knows what to look for now. It only takes a few cells for Virgal to lock to a DNA coding and he's found enough for Aries.
He follows at a distance, a quarter mile or more perhaps. He wonders how he should do this. He's operating outside of offical LIF operation rules. LIF has disabound any knowledge of Virgal's mission. Such was their safeguard.
They even removed Peter from the mission. He was someplace in the city as well though. Virgal chuckled to himself, thinking about the Owl and the woman Chastity.
He was sure Peter had some sort of emotional connection with her. Newer Hunters like Peter tended to be mostly emotionless, not experiencing highs and lows like normal people.
"Wander if they remembered to remove love from that mass of enzyems and proteins in his brain." He thinks back to Peter's reactions over the last two days and laughs, "Not, I don't think they did."
The Hunter lights another cigarette and continues walking. Peter's problems are his own. Virgal has a job: killinga Dragon.

He placed the money in my hands patted my head and left. I know he worked for the Red Infinity but still he had kindness. He was just another lost soul. I walked around his house just looking around. It was prettier than any of my houses I ever owned. I just looked around not touching anything afraid I would break something. I looked at the money and counted it. The large sum of money made me so excited to find the right place for clinic. Before I left I grabbed a long hooded jacket. He said it was a couple of blocks away from here. I stepped outside and just walked around looking before I came to a street called Hope and there stood a medium two stories building for sale. I don't think he had this one in mind but it could work. I walked in and took a look; then my eyes saw what it could be.
Rooms could be on the second floor for people afraid to leave, My office in one room, lodging room there and examine room there. Plants and flower outside and inside. Maybe two offices one for business another for talking........ It has to be peaceful. May be a training room where they can learn some self-defense. A spa in the back where they can relax and talk too other people it might help. I’ll have to build a fence to protect them more so they don't feel watched for being here..... Yes this is the right place.
I smile at my thought of the way this place could be and went off back to Aris house waiting to tell him of the news. I was jumping up in down for joy and did a flip or two before I pulled my self together. I wrote the number down before I went of. I went into his house and waited for him there literally standing in the front door. I turn my head and see a women on the couch sleeping. May be he has a girlfreind....... or wife that would make my converations with him easier knowing he's with some body on a small level. I didn't want to disturb her so I headed to the kicthen. With my eyes I saw some kind of crush pills...... I bolted to the women I shook her to wake.
