Covenants Are Writen in Red

[Kith]

i wake up hours later and go to my office.

+++++++++

I see that Fascia is there.

"Oh, hello...good to see you."

I look at the pile of airplanes on my floor.

"So, were you still interested in that date? I need to get out of here...."

+++++++++

[Chastity]

I think I hear Peter's voice, I go down into the kitchen and see him standing there.

"Peter," I say smiling, "It is so good to see you. How was your trip."

I suddenly remember the strange vampire that came in earlier.

"There was someone here looking for you Peter. His name was LaSombra, and he was a vampire. He said he was a friend of Aries' and he told me to give you a message."

I dig around in a drawer to find the piece of paper that I had scrawled the message on. Finding it, I take it out and hand it to Peter. The note says "A friend is in town. The past cannot be escaped."

"He seemed strange, I know that If he is a friend of Aries' that I should trust him, but I just felt strange while around him. Something didn't seem right."

[Turks6]

"*sighs*Pointing a gun at me again I see..."

Turks sudally does a spin kick knocking Trent's feet from under him.When he hits the ground Turks has her hand 6 inchs from his face,with a very sharp ice crystel pointing at his face.Turks is on top of him.

"*smiles*I was sent here to kill you...or bring you back to red infinity...but..."

The ice crystel dissappers as Turks stands up grubuing her gun from the floor.She also grubs Trents' and takes the bullets out of it.

"Just so you don't try to run after me and kill me.Your lucky I really don't like red infinity."

Turks starts to walk out of the castle.

[Fascia]

"Sure. I didn't really have plans for the evening. I am afraid I'm not really dressed up... I hope that it isn't to someplace fancy."

The truth is, I haven't been on a date in a long time, I cannot even remember the last time. This will be nice. I think of the two elves back at the apartment. Kakashi is somber and hasn't said more than two words to me since he's been back, and Daevid just sits around looking at me strangely and reading, or scribbling on paper. I could use some time away.

[Kith]

"I really didn't have anything going on, the party dinner that I invited you to before already was last week. So we could just go out for dinner. I just need to get out of here. It is driving me insane."

++++++++

We leave my office and walk down the street. Since, I can fly and teleport I do not have a car.

"So how have you been? Things have been crazy around the Ministry. Genovia has gone psychotic and my father is the God of Destruction....I've had a rough week.."

+++++++

"On a lighter note, Calithin and I seem to get along beter. He was pretty nice to me when he stopped by my office the other day...."

[Peter "The Owl"]

Peter takes the message, frowning slightly. "Yes... I know him. He's not exactly a friend though. More an aquaintance."

The ex-Hunter pockets the note and smiles, "I'll take care of it, thank you Chastity. By the way, while we're on the subject of that if you ever find someone in here that you know isn't supposed to be or someone is trying to do something bad all you need to do is vibally and with force tell them that they are not welcome here. Alright?"

He sets down his brief case and opens it, "On another note I have something for you." He draws a thick leather bound volume from his case. The leather is rich black and smells of oils rubbed in to keep it flexable. The pages are slightly crisp and yellow but in good shape. "This belonged to the Archbishop. He asked me to give it to you before I left him. He said that you should have it."

He holds the book out to her. A plain gold worked cross sits in the center of the leather binding.

[Fascia]

"Wonderful, God of Destruction, huh? Do you mean Keitoleinin? The god of Dark Elves is your father? You just went up several coolness points, Mr. Kith.

Let's see... I suppose a lot has happened to me, though not all since you last saw me. I don't really have anyone to talk to, so I might as well talk to you.

I had a baby, and died, and was brought back to life, and now the father of my baby has returned, though he looks like a demon and is currently ignoring me. My life almost meets up to yours in bizzarness, doesn't it?"

[Moira]

My job today is to go out bible collecting. Yeah, that is fun. I like when the League gives me somthing fun to do. I go door to door, with a gun...asking people for their bibles...which I put in a red Radio Flyer Wagon. Soon my wagon is full! I take the wagon of bibles into the street and create a huge pile. Then I light them on fire for everyone to see! Soon kids and others start coming to the fire, throwing their bibles inside. The flames get higher and higher.
I wonder what Fascia is doing today?

[Chastity]

"It is beautiful." I say as I take hold of the book. I know that it could never replace my old, worn Bible, but this one is complete, I can search through it to find scriptures that I have never read before, since my old Bible is falling apart.

It is a wonderful gift, the perfect gift. I don't know quite what to say. I run my fingers across the yellowed pages, watching them ripple as I do so. I open the book and scan page by page. I look up into Peter's eyes and am only able to say, "Thank you."

Then I remember myself, "The Archbishop is indeed a wonderful man to give this to me. I don't even know him."

[Kith]

"Several coolness points, excelent. I was in the negatives. Any little bit helps. So, you died, the father of your baby has become a demon, and you've gone back to work. I can see why you would want to work, to get away. Though Red Infinity does give paid time off for maternity leave...you would not have to work. But whatever you want to do."

We go inside the restaurant and we are given menus.
I don't look at mine, since I always order a salad anyway.

"I am not proud of the fact that my father is Keitoleinen. He is an arrogant a'sshole, and I can not forgive him for what he did to Helsinki (though I have done the same and worse)"

++++++++

I look out the window.

"Why couldn't I have been the son of the peace God or the God of attracting beautiful women?"

[Fascia]

"Ha ha, well, I have heard that Keitoleinen does not have many troubles in the attractive women department. And you should watch who you badmouth. He is, after all the god that I serve."

I wink at Kith and peruse the menu.

I decide on a pasta garfalle, a pasta with vegetables tossed in a light lemon sauce.

I hand the waiter my menu and give him my order. I also order a glass of white zinfindel.

"I think you need to take up a hobby, Kith. It would lighten your mood. Ha! Heck! Maybe I should take up a hobby too. We could do something together to combat our crappy moods and our crappy lives. What do you think? Ever gone rock climbing? Or we could learn to Salsa dance."

The very idea of one of the top officials at the Ministry of Terror taking Salsa dancing lessons with me makes me laugh. I am only his secretary, after all, and he is no longer a pathetic half breed. He is now not only an elf, but the son of my god.

[Kith]

"I would love to. I need more friends, actually. And dancing is fun...."

I just eat my salad. I never have much appetite as it is.


"Hey, you worship my father, right? I could take you to meet him. I get the feeling he would be more than pleased to meet an attractive elf woman...I guess he has a thing for dark elves...hence my existance."

+++++++++

I am in a pretty excelent mood. Salsa, hmm...well I can try something new. Who knows, maybe I'll be the best salsa dancer at the Ministry of Terror.

+++++++++

We talk and eat for a while longer. It really was fun.

"When would you like to meet my father?"

[Fascia]

"Are you kidding? I would love to meet your father... I mean Keitoleinen. When? Um... tomorrow, the day after... today. Right now. Could we go right now?"

I am so excited. I cannot believe that I have the opportunity to meet my god. This is incredible. I think of Moira, boy will she be jealous.

[Peter "The Owl"]

"No," says Peter, closing the briefcase, "But he knew you. I mentioned you in my report when I first met you and he took special interest in your work."

Peter takes off his jacket, laying to over his case, "He planned on asking you to join the curgy someday. However, with the collapse of our organization it became impossible."

Peter sighs and closes his eyes, "He's dead now. He died a week or so ago. He was a great man. Many miss him. It's too bad you never got to meet him."

[Kith]

"Sure, we can meet him right now."

I pay the bill and walk back over to her.

"If you don't mind, I will teleport you, since he works in St. Petersburg..."
+++++++++++

I put a hand on her shoulder and teleport her to the League of the Godless.

"Well, his office is upstairs."

+++++++++++++

I knock softly on his door and enter with Fascia.... the last time I met with him, I was pretty angry. But since she seems enthused to meet him, I will tolerate his arrogant ways.
He is boredly sitting at his desk.

"Hello......I have someone who would like to meet you...."

I step behind Fascia as we walk into the office.
