Temeluchas sat on the edge of her bed watching the children play on her floor. They had grown so much already. A bowl sat in her lap and she replayed last night's events over and over again. That son of a bitch was in a lot of fucking trouble for the shit he pulled. Not only did he allow Ariel to live, but he fixed him. That fucking worthless piece of shit was needed a visit paid to him and now. She set the bowl down on the floor just as Calamitosum came bounding over to her. "Momma Lu, Mali isn't sharing the human leg. She said --"

Lu shook her head at the child and patted Calamitosum lightly on the shoulder. She slid off the bed and knelt down so that they were at eye level. "Cal, what did I tell you about sharing?" she asked her.

"Only babies share. Grown ups take what they want." she recited.

"Good boy. Now, go play with the twins. Mali and I are going to go on a little trip." Lu gave her a kiss on the cheek and she ran back to the others. "Mali come here a minute." The small white - haired girl came walking over timidly. "Stand up straight pet. You know the rules about power and posture." Malignavérunt straightened her spine and came to a stop in front of her adoptive mother.

"Y-yes Momma Lu?" she asked sheepishly, still clutching the leg in one hand.

"Are we stammering again?" Lu looked down at her daughter with a stern expression. The little girl shook her head no and swallowed nervously. "Good. You and I are going away for a little bit. Don't worry. We'll have fun. You remember what I told you last night?" Malignavérunt nodded her head. "All right then." Lu tapped the tip of her finger onto Mali's nose and a thick jacket enveloped her. The other three children stopped playing and looked up with curious expressions on their faces. "Babies, I'll be back soon. Danel will be here if you need anything."

I didn't volunteer to babysit those little shits.

She rolled her eyes and took Mali by the hand. The mist surrounded them and they disappeared from the pits of Hell. When the smoke cleared, they were standing outside a hospital in a snow-covered city. "He's in there?" Mali asked while pointing at the big sliding doors.

"He is darling. Are you sure you remember what to do?" Lu asked the girl a second time and she nodded her head once more. "If you need anything, just call for me." She smiled down at the child and gave her a kiss on the forehead before ushering the girl towards the doors. Her tiny hands bore a small black ring on one finger and she disappeared inside the hospital. Time to deal with that pain in the ass. Temeluchas was wrapped in the familiar darkness once more, to reappear within a hotel room. She loomed over the sleeping figure with his ugly red locks and fire blazed in her eyes.

"Wake up!!" she shouted. The room shook and she grabbed his arm, jerking Alistair out of bed. For a moment, she forgot about the tie between him and Iris and watched as the woman was tugged along as well. Her fiery blue eye glanced at the woman in confusion, then realization set in and a dark smirk crossed her lips. "You have a lot of fucking explaining to do."

​

 

​

​

Sleep had come quite easily for Alistair and he merely rested on his bed with his eyes closed and a relaxed smile smile on his face. After all that had happened the other day he still managed to get some sleep despite him wondering just what will happen next in their little adventure. He could probably try relaxing in the winter wonderland, but he knew that this wouldn't happen. He knew eventually that she would be coming.​

​

And so when the sudden voice rang out in the room, Alistair was not surprised or shocked, but merely opened his eyes groggily as he collapsed off the bed and merely sat up with a loud yawn "Well then my dear good morning....your looking quite faaaaaaaaaabulous today my dear" Alistair said with a childish grin. She was obviously pissed off with him but then again she was always pissed with him so he really couldn't tell the difference. ​

​

The attention was drawn over to the fallen Iris and the smile on Tempy's face was quite cute, but then she went off and demanded answers he knew that she knew that they knew. "Come now, I know you were watching what happened...so tell me...just what do you really want to know?" Alistair said. Standing up as he dusted off his suit that he hadn't changed out of.​

​

Just like the previous night Logan had slept fairly well. There wasn't any lingering feeling of drowsiness nor was he feeling uncomfortable. Though what he did do differently from the last time was get out of them bed oppose to trying sleep in for a bit. The last thing he wanted was a unquie wake up call from tennis boy.​

​

Without too much delay, he headed towards the provided shower and got himself cleaned up. When he was finished, he put on a change of clothes and stepped out the room. Upon exiting, Logan headed towards the lobby and took a seat in one of the chairs. While he waited, he decided to check up on Alois and see how things were going on his end, so he took out his phone and composed a quick message.​

​

​

He didn't really worry about it too much since he that Alois could handle himself, still there was no harm in checking for himself. backing out of the compose message screen, he went ahead and started playing one of his games on his phone.

Adam woke up with a headache again, and he slowly got himself out of bed. He sluggishly got himself ready and aimed to head towards the door, when his head suddenly felt dizzy and he grabbed onto a bed post.​

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx​

What the hell was that?​

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx​

Adam sat back down on the bed and layed back down for a moment closing his eyes, he wasn't sure if he actually fell back asleep at all, but he knew he couldn't lie there all day and he decided it would be best to just get out of the room. He grabbed his backpack and headed to the lobby.​

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx​

When he got there, he saw Richard was present, and so was the new guy...Logan was it? But he was surprised to not see anyone else, particularly Brandon. Maybe he had run off for a few minutes. Adam probably would have started conversation with Richard if he wasn't asleep and Logan wasn't so absorbed in his phone.​

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx​

Adam sat in a chair in the lobby and closed his eyes to block out light, hoping it would help the headache.​

"Come now, I know you were watching what happened...so tell me...just what do you really want to know?" Alistair was looking cocky as usual. He clearly needed a new round of being thrown into the wall. He got up and dusted off that god-forsaken suit of his and Lu crossed her arms in annoyance.

"I want to know what the hell you were thinking when you not only decided to let Ariel live, but operate on him as well." Temeluchas made a scissors motion with her fingers and cut at the air between Alistair and Iris. The once invisible bond between them turned into a thick black cord that separated at her touch. She looked at Alistair menacingly and grabbed him by the wrist. "You are coming with me." Lu threw Iris a dark look. "You are staying here. Enjoy your time alone in this Winter Wonderland." Her tone was dripping with sarcasm as the mist enveloped Alistair and herself.

Everything went black and Temeluchas was seething. She didn't have time to deal with Alistair's bullshit, neither did she want to. When the portal began to open again, she pushed him out of it and into the new hotel room. "Enjoy your punishment for fucking up." Lu gave him a kick to the back and the mist closed once more, taking her home to her room and the children.

Joslyn Taylor Jones
DAY: 34 - 2/4 | DATE: October 25th, 2013 [Friday] | LOCATION: Hotel ==> Apartment Complex in Munich, Germany

Joslyn lifted her head off of the pillows as she yawned. She got out of the bed, picked up the compass from the nightstand, and placed it around her neck. They needed to meet up with the guy again to make sure he would join the group. It was important to get as many people on their side as possible. On top of that, they needed to make sure they didn't lose any more people. Getting more people to join them was good, but if they were losing people at the same rate, their little group would never grow.

"Ugh... Are we really going to try and get more people again?"

"Yes. We have to."

"We don't have to do anything. That's all you."

"And since you're stuck with me, you have to."

"Weeeeeeeelllllllll~, the girl has a pooooooooiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnt~."

"Oh, shut your stupid ass up!"

"Ahaaaaaaaah~! I don't have to take that from you, you stuck up biiiiiiiiiiiiitch~!"

"What was that you overgrown tumor?!" Their incessant fighting was starting to give her a headache. It was times like these that she considered asking Hana to do away with them, even if it meant dealing with that burning feeling.

After everyone had woken up and gathered in the lobby, it was decided that a few would stay in the hotel while the others would go. They went out and drove to wherever the compass pointed them. This time around, it guided them to an apartment complex in the city instead of a library. They all went into the complex, following the compass. The group found themselves standing in front of what they assumed was Kai's apartment. She reluctantly knocked on the door a couple of times before stepping back from the door. Victor and Tessa were still going at it in her head. Joslyn started to rub her temples in an attempt to alleviate the pain from all of their bickering.

 

​

After the gang had split up for a bit some went to go get the angel while others stayed behind at the hotel. Richard was one of the ones that had went to the new angel. The compass had ended up leading them to an apartment building, so obviously the new angel lived here. He kind of just stood there in the background as Joslyn knocked on the door and they awaited the new angel to come out. The new angel opened the door looking rather disgruntled and annoyed, kind of like he probably just got out of bed. He pulled out his phone and started typing on it. The man showed them and he was pretty sure it said, [you people again?] As rude as that might've seemed, especially for a mute person to say, Richard probably wouldn't be too thrilled if these people showed up at his doorstep, heck he was already not enjoying just being with these people but that was a totally different matter altogether. The new angel man invited them into his apartment and the smaller than usual group crammed in there. He then typed something up on his phone again and revealed it to say [what do you want from me?]

Richard wasn't entirely sure the big picture part of this question, but he was pretty sure the man already knew what they wanted. "Well we already told you the situation this world and sort of you are in, so we're here for a follow up. Are you going to come with us and join our team?"

[This is serious? You really expect to save the world, after so many have died?]

Oh these questions. His own resolve to this crew wasn't the greatest, and to be perfectly honest the amount of effort he'd have to put in was probably going to be a major bother...but at the end of the day he still knew why he should be fighting, and that was enough for him to make a response. "Honestly I'm not entirely sure what are odds are at saving the world. However, we can fight whatever can end the world and as such we probably should. Do you have anything you care about in this world? Something you'd fight dearly to protect? If so, then you should remember that whatever you're protecting isn't excluded from the end of the world, but at least you have the power to try and stop that from happening." It was an answer that Richard had stumbled upon while listening to the Brandon kid talk to Adam, though one that he hadn't firmly cemented himself into.

However the man continued to type a response to Richard and showed it to him. [And if i don't have anything worth fighting for, then what?]

Richard sighed, really not willing to answer the question. Why did he have to do this anyway? Regardless he went for the answer that he was following at the moment. "Then you do what I do, and fight for the sake of just saving the world. I'll ask you another question. Why wouldn't you try and save the world. I'm about as lazy as they come yet I still do what I can to prevent the end of days. And why's that? In a world that has become Hell on Earth, I can't imagine there being any form of relief or happiness there. It'll probably become a worse fate to live there than it would to die trying to save it."

He stood there for a long while before finally holding up a finger and disappearing down the hall. He was gone for a minute and when he came back, there was a bag over his shoulder. [I packed before you all got here.] Then he ushered them out the door like 'let's go.' Richard stared him think that he was a bit of a little shit at that point, having him spend all that energy trying to convince him when he was already ready to go. Oh well, at least the deal was done, and as such the gang piled in the car and drove off back to the hotel to get everyone else together to leave Germany.

 

​

Tempy was one who always asked questions but never gave the damn to even wait for the answers. That woman was such an impatient one and it just made him wonder why the hell she asked these questions in the first place. Regardless there was nothing he could do about it but merely go with the woman like he usually did. Her anger was not going to be something she would ignore and it was apparent that punishment was on his way.

The chain that had bound him and Iris were now cut and with that Alistair was quite grateful that it was now over. The girl was really starting to annoy him and even though he preferred not to slice her up, Alistair was close to doing it anyways. Once again like always the black mist took them towards their destination and Alistair could only raise an eyebrow at the sudden scene. It had seemed like a mere hotel room, but if it involved Tempy then there was something much more to that, especially since she called it a punishment.

Alistair didn't have time to ponder this thought any further as he was pushed straight into the room and he merely stumbled in. A familiar face caught his attention instantly, but as quick as he gazed upon the face a searing pain hit his left shoulders. The pain was great, but it was nothing compared to her, his eyes widened and a grin rose on his face.The other bullets arrived, but Alistair was quick. Scale like blades covered his arms and with those arms he used them like a shield blocking off the incoming bullets.

Just as the last bullet hit the arms, Alistair immediately rose his right arm and pointing his fingers at Heinrik, 5 blades were shot out of his fingertips. Heinrik had a powerful gun and with all that training he did he must have had quite the strong angelic power, but Alistair was ready to fight. Just as the blades were shot, Alistair rushed forward and with his arm out a curved blade pierced out of his arm and with it Alistair used it and swung horizontally at him.

In the end, it seemed that they really did manage to convince Kai to come with them, and now they had another member in the group. He wasn't entirely sure how to react at this point, but he welcomed him in. At least he didn't talk, with all the talking some of these people did it would have been that much more annoying.​

xxxxxxxxxxx​

They all got back to the hotel and collected the others that were still there, but they had all waited a good amount of time for Henrik to show up, and he wasn't showing up at all. They all needed to get out of there and were getting rather impatient. But after a good amount of time, Brandon decided to speak up.​

xxxxxxxxxxx​

"Don't worry, you can count on me to keep track of him."​

xxxxxxxxxxx​

They all went with it, and a couple of them gave him cellphone numbers in order to contact him. They they all rode out to the airport.​

xxxxxxxxxxx​

Adam was a little upset about leaving Brandon behind, he was one of the few people that actually trusted him in some way, so now he was stuck with people who had unsure opinions about him. This meant he was going to actually have to put effort in to get people to like him now.​

xxxxxxxxxxx​

They all traveled back without Brandon and Henrik to Berlin, and they boarded the plane they still had from last time. He wasn't sure how everyone else felt about jumping on the plane, but the second he got on the plane Rubbish ran over to him and kept meowing like crazy until he bothered to pick up the cat. He fed him even though they had left him more than enough food, and then he carried the cat over his seat.​

xxxxxxxxxxx​

Adam's headache was still there, and it wasn't getting better or worse. He was still nervous about why Semyaza was giving him the silent treatment, and on top of it all, he was still thinking about how he would manage to get Hana to trust him. He wasn't sure if anyone bothered to look in his direction on the plane, but as he pet Rubbish, his face had a clear look of distress.​

xxxxxxxxxxx​

Eventually, he started to feel a little sick, and took some dramamine, which helped dull down the headache, but it put him to sleep for the duration of the flight.​

 

​

The gang had ended up leaving behind the tennis kid and the professor man because the latter had ended up taking too long to come with. Richard was probably the laziest one here and he was still ready to go, so what was the deal with Henrik? He was wondering what might be keeping him but by the end of it the gang ended up leaving nonetheless. The drive from Munich to Berlin was one that was completely blanked out in Richard's head as he slept through the entire five hour ride as he usually did. Once at Berlin they made it to an airport and all boarded on board a plane set for Italy. The compass didn't actually give them a specific country to go to, in fact it only provided a direction, so going to Italy, just like going to Germany, felt a bit like a blind jump, but he wasn't going to question their methods. Not when they seemed to keep working. Once on the plane he looked around and noticed the Adam kid pop some pills before falling asleep. That seemed odd. Oh well. If he ever talked to the kid he might question it, but for now it would be too much effort. He followed suit with the kid and fell asleep himself.

​

Total Time Skipped​

6 Hours, 30 Minutes​

​

Once in Italy the gang started to move out. Getting a car through Jun Tae's more likely than not, shady means they started followed the compass to wherever it was pointing to. However the search ended up being long and drawn out and they did not end up getting very far in it. Furthermore the group was starting to feel hungry as well. Deciding to give up on the hunt for a bit the group made their way to a nearby restaurant for food. Despite having a near endless source of money and a person who could do about anything and everything off of his phone, they had never actually stopped to eat at a restaurant before. However once they walked in there the white haired girl, Joslyn, seemed to notice something. She checked the compass again and it seemed to be going back and she seemed to think that an angel was close by here. The gang followed the compass until they saw a brown haired man ravenously eating a bowl or pasta. He could only assume that this man was the angel. When he was done eating he looked up and noticed the group. "Can I help you?"

​

AT this point, it was basically like Leo and Hay Sun were being dragged around everywhere, and Leo could beat the daylights out of Saxima for letting it be like that. During downtime, he had been mostly operating missions and coordination with his contacts.

He somehow felt they were running in circles, but he couldn't focus on any of it. Hay Sun had told him about Danel when she knew she couldn't hide it anymore. Knowing that the Dark Angels hadn't found Leviathan yet was relieving, and it meant they still had time . . . Which was where Leo felt Dumah came in. He seemed unversed in their situation right now, but Leo thought that Dumah was the keeper of Leviathan's location.

The only thing now was getting that information out of Kai before the Dark Angels could.

At the moment, Leo was standing to the side, staring down a beast that might as well have been called a starving tiger. As more of a sarcastic comment, he looked to Joslyn. ⎧Perhaps the compass is malfunctioning.⎭ But even he knew that they couldn't pass up anyone with a single trace of Glamour, especially when it was an archangel's. He had to be honest, Zachariel seemed like more of a serious person than this. Looks were often misleading, Leo supposed.

⎧Can I help you?⎭

The group didn't move. Leo thought it was probably bad for them to be moving so largely like this because it wasn't like they weren't completely suspicious. ⎧It's more like we can help you.⎭ he replied. He looked at the others and motioned for them to take seats around at the tables so they weren't all standing around the table.

Hay Sun continued to mutter under her breath about hating Italy and never wanting to be here again, but Leo ignored her. He pulled up a seat across from Zachariel and sighed. With a tone of patience and little room for argument, he began to quietly explain the situation in a detached way that clearly showed he wanted little to do with it. Every then and again, Hay Sun would loudly throw in a cynical, sarcastic comment. A part of him wished Brandon was around to lighten things up and explain in his place.

He looked pointedly at Hana and then back. ⎧Joining us isn't without risks, but as you are now, being alone might as well have you being at the mercy of the Dark Angels.⎭ he further explained. Now that he thought of it, not many of them had family to speak of, or people that they were leaving behind . . . ⎧And, if you do happen to come with us, anything you might be attached to here will have to be left behind.⎭ Hay Sun seemed to fidget at this.​

[/url] Ah Venice. What a place of beauty and wonder. Of women and cuisine. What more could a man of no duty and carelessness wish for? Well duty and purpose of course, but that was long term, and this impulsive trip was in the now. Though after a good deal of walking around and taking in that lovely Venice air he finally realized that there was a bit of a pit somewhere in his body. Something that just felt empty, longing for something. Oh but how to satiate such a vital area that yearns to be complete. Why you eat of course. The stomach always knew what it wanted, and it always wanted food. As such in the late evening of the day he had ended up finding himself a nearby restaurant filled with only the finest of foods...well he didn't actually know if they held fine cuisine but hey, he wasn't a picky eater. Once there he sat down and ordered about seven orders of pasta and sausage. Quite the meal it was. He was devouring each one by the bowlful, washing it down with various sodas and bread loaves, when on the seventh bowl of his pasta he looked up after finishing it. Before him was something that could only be described as a motley crew. They all seemed to be of different ethnic backgrounds and there was something that wasn't mixing well with him about them. Regardless they were just standing there, so he asked "can I help you?"

The tall asian man, (whom he thought looked sort of butlerish) before him decided to speak up first. "More like we can help you." Oh? His eyebrow was raised to this and he was quite curious about what was apparently they were going to help him with. The group dispersed to take seats, though still in earshot of the conversation, and the asian man took a seat across from him. The asian man started to explain to him the entire situation about him being a fallen angel, about demons running wild, about dark angels running around doing bad shit to the world, and anything else that Skyheart didn't put in there but would be explained. The asian girl, who seemed to bear some sort of semblance to the man before him, threw in a snarky comment here and there, rather rudely he might add. When all was said and done the asian man decided to make a closing statement. "Joining us isn't without risks, but as you are now, being alone might as well have you being at the mercy of the Dark Angels. And, if you do happen to come with us, anything you might be attached to here will have to be left behind." Interesting.

Spoiler: God's Command

At that moment he blinked and when he re-opened his eyes, the world seemed to be different. Rather than sitting down in a restaurant he was standing on top of what could only be described as crystal clear water. The scenery around him was as if he was in the middle of a vast blue sky, with only a few clouds floating about. This was certainly different. Though he had felt as if he had been here before, even though he knew he hadn't. It just sort of felt, familiar. "Hello." He heard a soft female voice come from behind him. Turning around he noticed that he was not alone here. The figure before looked like a dainty young girl, covered in bandages and dressed in white.

"And you might be?" It was not as if he didn't figure out who she was, but he was still interested in hearing come from her mouth.

"My name is Zachariel.I am anarchangel with the designation, God's Command."

"Oh, well that's certainly something. No offense, but I was expecting someone who would look a bit more imposing and masculine, given that kind of a title."

Zachariel merely chuckled at the given comment and continued to smile a soft smile at him. "Oh Salvatore, you should know that angels don't have a defined gender, nor a defined appearance. However, some thing you might want to keep in mind, is appearances can mean everything. The more innocent it looks, the more dangerous it can be."

"Duly noted. So, care to tell me why I'm here?"

"Oh yes, I'd be delighted to. I wanted to tell you to not join the group."

"Oh?"

"Yes. I want you to be sure of this group before you jump into it.Make your observations as you like to do, and see all the reasons why joining the group would be an awful idea. Only join when you feel like it's a good idea. I can tell you right now, the two of us could go farther than the lot of them altogether at this point in time, and I believe you already know the answer, so please, tell them."

What an interesting female-looking being it was. It was almost as if it was giving him a command. Though Zachariel was right, there was something definitely off about this group, and something that was most likely not very team like. In fact, he wasn't even in the presence of a team.

As if a second hadn't passed his perception returned back to the restaurant he was in and the asian man was still awaiting his response. Sal took a deep breath around and decided to point out what he felt was wrong. "I'm sorry but I shall decline. I know that you spent a good deal of time trying to make me join your group and I appreciate you for taking the time to do such, but I can't join a team that isn't a team." He looked around and made quick snap judgements of every person he saw around him. "So you don't seem to thrilled to be talking to me, in fact you don't seem to thrilled to even be apart of this gang, and that female seemed rather reluctant as well, what with all her negative comments towards your explanation. Also, there's an odd air of hostility throughout your entire group. Either most of you don't care or you're just doing it reluctantly. Like you're on a mission, but unfortunately, don't want to do that mission. So again thank you, but I think I'll decline an invitation to your team, and only when you show me you are actually a real team would I feel comfortable in joining and trusting these people. Though if you could disprove me and show me your comradery than I could reconsider." He took a sip of a glass of water before he gave one final look to the asian man, "though I don't see that happening."

 

Samuel Riviera
DAY: 34 - 3/4 | DATE: October 25th, 2013 [Friday] | LOCATION: Venice, Italy

As Mister Know-it-All Jackass was talking to the guy who was peacefully eating his own meal, Red seemed to pull him away from the others and whispered something to him. "Before we leave Italy, I want to make a quick stop somewhere."

Sam turned to look at her. "What? Why?"

"I want to go back to Rome."

"What for? There's nothing for you to do there."

"There's something...."

"Oh yeah? Why not tell the others then?" It was odd that she would only tell him something like this.

"I don't want to involve the others. I'm only telling you so that someone knows where I went."

"Bullshit you're going alone. I'm coming with you." His voice rose above a whisper, though it wasn't shouting by any means.

"Keep your voice down. You need to stay here Sam. Who's going to protect everyone if something happens?" As if acting on her own is gonna do any good. She should really have someone go with her to make sure she's safe. After all, she did get kidnapped and she did get sent to a whorehouse. But she did have a point, he supposed.

"Tch. Dammit. You better come back, Hana." After those words left his mouth, there was a bit of silence between them. As soon as it got out there, he started to get flustered, his face turning a little red.

"... You've never called me by my name before."

Sam looked around the room nervously. "... I... Just shut up... And make sure you come back....."

"Try not to choke anyone while I'm gone." The comment really got to Sam.

"And you make sure no one strips you again."

" … ... "

After a long silence passed between them, he let out a sigh. "Sorry... Just... a little flustered..."

"Why ...?"

At this point, his face was a deep shade of red. "I think you know why." He couldn't look her in the eye, or even in her general direction.

"... We'll talk when I get back."

"Fine."

Every moment of being in Italy had Hay Sun internally screaming and using every last bit of her energy to not set the world on fire. She didn't understand why there had to be other Fallen here. Okay, so that meant she was admitting that the whole whorehouse ordeal left her a bit . . . traumatized – but you've got to be fucking kidding her, who wouldn't be?

❝Jun Tae for best recruiter, all time.❞ she commented after the Italian man declined their offer. Although it pissed her off ( why couldn't the asshole have just said yes and spared them the fucking trouble? ), Hay Sun had to admit his reasoning was sound. The more time passed, the less she wanted to be doing this anymore. All of her frustrations went into her training, which was becoming a dangerous pass time for any location she was training at.

To her surprise, Jun Tae merely shrugged. ❝We can't force you into anything, and I'll have to agree with you on most all points.❞

True as that was, Red was probably the better option for trying to get people to join them, not her scary, broodish brother. Hell, even she could do better than hi – okay, who the fuck was she kidding. Hay Sun probably would have strangled the other guy if he declined her.

From another table, Red caught her attention. ❝I'm going to Rome tomorrow. I want to take care of what we left behind, if you want to help.❞ The thought of going back to Rome both frightened and excited her, along with dragging out her boiling aggression and anger at what had taken place there.

. . . Who would be going, though? Cass . . . wasn't around anymore, so it would just be the two of them. What was the hesitation for? She internally growled. Fuck hesitation. ❝I want to crush them.❞ she replied, her eyes flashing and her fists clenching.

❝THAT IS THE BETTER WAY TO THINK. SPARE YOURSELF OF HESITATION.❞

Feeling satisfied with that small but effective resolution, Hay Sun smiled. An idea popped into her head and she looked back at the Italian with a more positive aura radiating off of her. ❝Hey, how 'bout a test run into being an Angel Ranger? It's not all that bad once you actually get started. We might all seem like we hate each other now, but we've been through a lot of shit. Come with me and Red to Rome tomorrow. We've got some business to take care of.❞

Her grin was unnervingly excited.​

​

There was a brief wait before he got a message back from Alois. ​

​

​

At least he wasn't freaking out over it like he thought he would. It would be another compliment to add to the ones that Alois would never hear escape his lips.

By the time he sent the message the group was heading out, leaving tennis boy behind. He could handle himself, beside they had other matters to attend to it seems.

It was a fairly long trip but eventually they ended up in a diner Italy. At least now he could cross of visiting Italy of his bucket list. Still he watch as another member of their little group tried recruiting another person from what he could tell. While he wasn't paying it much attention, the last thing the man said caught his attention.

"So you don't seem to thrilled to be talking to me, in fact you don't seem to thrilled to even be apart of this gang, and that female seemed rather reluctant as well, what with all her negative comments towards your explanation. Also, there's an odd air of hostility throughout your entire group. Either most of you don't care or you're just doing it reluctantly. Like you're on a mission, but unfortunately, don't want to do that mission. So again thank you, but I think I'll decline an invitation to your team, and only when you show me you are actually a real team would I feel comfortable in joining and trusting these people. Though if you could disprove me and show me your comradery than I could reconsider. though I don't see that happening

That was definitely true about himself, though he could say much about the other people. He knew very little about them and at the moment, it didn't really matter much how much he did know about them.

❝Hey, how 'bout a test run into being an Angel Ranger? It's not all that bad once you actually get started. We might all seem like we hate each other now, but we've been through a lot of shit. Come with me and Red to Rome tomorrow. We've got some business to take care of.❞

He couldn't help but chuckle at this. Yeah, that's one way to show team work. If Rome was so important, why didn't they head there first. Eh, probably for reasons he doesn't know about, so he chose not to dwell on it.

Blades locked against each other and Alistair could only grin as the two fought. Alistair honestly began to wonder why Tempy would dare call this a punishment since this sort of combat was quite pleasing. Despite how much he liked it, he still felt it to be quite premature still. He still desired to find out more about his powers before standing up to greater challenges and somebody like Heinrik was quite an interesting challenge.

Their blades separated from the clash and Alistair could merely jump backwards. Alistair was not out for blood, but Heinrik was. Heinrik prepared the next move and so too did Alistair but the mere sound of sirens roared and Alistair sighed "Times up" Alistair said as he turned away and rushed towards the balcony. Dealing with Heinrik sounded fun, but dealing with the police just made things sound dull and annoying. The balcony was the closest exit and as he reached the edge of it Alistair placed two fingers on his forehead as he gave Heinrik one final glance "Arrivederci" Alistair said before jumping off.

The thrill of jumping off the balcony was quite exhilarating, it truly made the aristocrat feel alive. There was a nearby tree beside him and with his bladed arm he stuck the blade into the trunk of the tree and descended as gravity did its work. Soon enough Alistair reached the ground and he was off. In the time that had passed Alistair worked on getting his shoulder fixed. It was going to be a real pain later on but he could deal with it. Signing up for a hotel room he immediately took a soak in the Jacuzzi and proceeded to put on a new suit he bought on the way...things were great. After taking his time to enjoy his wine he went off to sleep. This was such a pleasant punishment

 

[/url] He sat there waiting for a response from the group when he heard the asian girl throw in her comment about Jun Tae being the best recruiter. This only seemed to really further his point. Then the asian man, Jun Tae, finally decided to respond to him. "We can't force you into anything, and I'll have to agree with you on most all points." Oh that was interesting. He was actually expecting more of a fight for him from them to convince him how much of team they were or some shit like that. It probably would've blown up in their faces and not proven anything to him at all, but still. Though he was actually quite respecting of him excepting the faults that had been pointed out to them. Maybe that would mean they could actually get together.

After that he noticed the red headed one and the asian girl talk to each other about something that he couldn't quite make out. Then the asian girl put her attention back on him and seemed to now have a complete one eighty on her personality. From being cynical and snarky to absolutely positive. It was actually kind of odd and kind of awkward. "Hey, how 'bout a test run into being an Angel Ranger? It's not all that bad once you actually get started. We might all seem like we hate each other now, but we've been through a lot of ****. Come with me and Red to Rome tomorrow. We've got some business to take care of." She had a pretty unnerving grin on her face now.

Though through all this, Sal started processing what was just told to him and he could only laugh a bit at it. When all was said and done he took a sip from his glass of water, and looked back at her. "Alright fine, I guess I'll go with the two of you and see your synergy."

"So are you really joining them so fast?" He heard the soft voice of Zachariel tune in again.

'Nah, not yet. Though I did say if they could prove they're teamwork I'd consider it, so might as well give them a shot and see if there's hope for this "team" yet.' After his response he could only hear Zachariel's soft giggling in his head before it seemed to fade out. "So I suppose we're going to go find a place to stay now for the night? Or do you and your group have other plans?"

 

Joslyn Taylor Jones
DAY: 34 - 4/4 | DATE: October 25th, 2013 [Friday] | LOCATION: Restaurant in Venice, Italy

As Joslyn was standing by herself, Adam had approached her with his hands in his pockets. "Sooo... Are you hungry? I'm not the only one, right?"

"W-wha-? Oh, n-no, not r-r-really..." As she protested, her stomach growled.

He grinned. "You sure? Alllllright then." Adam started to back off. "Because I'm gonna sit down and get some food if you wanna eat."

She looks around nervously. "Oh come on, just eat dammit."

"W-well... I... I guess i-i-it wouldn't hurt to g-g-get a bite to e-e-eat..." She shyly slides into the seat across from Adam.

"You don't need to be ashamed of needing to eat ya know."

"Thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiissss~ should be fuuuuuuuuuuu~uuuuun~."

"Mmm..." Relunctantly, she grabs a menu that is on the table. "U-umm..."

"Oh, I didn't notice before. You have beautiful eyes."

"Wh-wh-wh-wh-wha-wha-wha-what?" Her face took on several shades of red. "Wh-wh-why-why-why would y-yo-you s-s-s-say something l-li-li-lik-like that?" She began to rapidly twiddle her thumbs.

"Because it's true. They're pure and white. Like snow."

"Wow, Romeo over here is really trying." The tone in Tessa's voice was deadpan, monotonous.

"I-I-I... I-I... I don't.... I-I've never..."

"Shh you don't need to stutter like this. Has no one ever complimented your beauty?" He takes a look at his menu. "Oh they have fish and chips... so much like home... thought it'd be more unique... I have no idea what to get." Adam looks to Joslyn. "What are you ordering?"

"W-w-wha-? B-b-beauty?" Her face somehow manages to become even more flushed with red. "Ah! O-o-order..." She looks through menu, obviously flustered. "Uh... umm... umm... Well... I... I g-g-guess I can get... ummm... S-s-spaghetti al n-n-n-nero d-d-di seppia"

Suddenly, a man pops out of the kitchen and takes a seat nearby, where he notices Joslyn. Upon seeing her, he instantly rushes over to her. "Ah, mi scusi, non ho potuto fare a meno di notare il menu. Stai ordinando? (Ah, excuse me, I couldn't help but notice the menus. Are you ordering?)"

"I-I-I'm sorry?"

"Ah, forgive me. I was so taken by your looks, I didn't even consider you weren't from around here. Do forgive me."

"Wh-wh-wh-wh-wha-what?" She is flustered yet again.

"You see, I told you." Adam smirks before looking to the stranger. "I'm sorry for asking but... what did you say before?"

"Ah, my apologies. Let me repeat: I couldn't help but notice you have menus. Are you ordering?"

"Yes, we are ordering." Adam looks to Joslyn again. "What spaghetti was that you wanted?"

"Wha-wha-? Oh!" She looks back to her menu. "Uuuhhh.... I-I-I would like th-th-the S-s-spaghetti al n-nero d-d-di s-seppia..."

"Of course, excellent choice from a beautiful woman. And how about you, my good man?"

Adam steals another glance at his menu before turning to the waiter. "I guess I will also be having that." He looks to her again. "I trust she has good taste-" Adam's gaze drops to her chest. "Huh... um..." He looks back to the waiter.

"Wow, is he really...?"

"Yeeaaaaaaaaah~, I think he iiiiiiiiissssss~."

"Very well then. Two orders of Spaghetti al nero di seppia coming right up. By the way, I'm Vincent, and I'll be your cook as well as server." With that, he takes his leave and steps through the kitchen doors.

"Wh-why were you l-l-looking at him like th-tha-that?"
