Axel watched Rebecca for a very long time before he sighed, relaxing his shoulders and pressing his head to her forehead. " Do what you want with it. Although I am not sure stitches will be nesscary. I have deeper wounds heal without such things," he grumbled under his breath as he closed his eyes slowly, bracing for the needle. " And didn't get blood in anything and I washed my hands first. The wounds on my shoulder and hip have already started to scab." He leaned back farther into the chair. Letting his body completely relax. It was the only way this wasn't going to feel awful. " I need a drink," he grumbled under his breath as he glanced over at Rebecca." You sure you want to do this yourself?" He asked with a questioning gaze. " I won't blame you if you can't stomach it. I know it's really gross to di." He said.

Anju snuggled under his chin, kissing his neck softly as she ran a hand down his chest and pressed her fingers into the soft part of his hip. " Alright baby, if you get settled, I can get us some coffee or something. Although I am starting to get tired myself and would like rest for a while," she said, sliding her hand over his hips and between his hips and up his chest slowly, wrapping her arms around his neck as her plush chest slowly pressed against his.

Savannah's eyes narrowed as she gave a swift nod. She let walked along beside him and when they reached the estate. She dismounted the horse swiftly, gazing up at Takeshi. " You should come in with me just for a moment in order to ensure that my father knows it was you who had kept me late and not on my own accorded. This way he'll be less likely to do something brash," she said, lifting up her skirts slightly as she made her way over to the front door. She knocked only once before a maid answered. She gave a curtesy to Savannah. " Welcome back Lady Savannah," she said. Savannah swept into the room in a flurry of quiet movements. " Come Lord Takeshi," she said, glancing back at him through her dark thick lashes.

Axel took her hand and helped her up. " My goal of my stunt earlier wasn't to make you feel guilty Rebecca, it was to make you think. Above moving forward with our lives. Because if we don't we'll just be destroying each other in a ruthless cycle ," Axel said. He wrapped his arms slowly around her waist as he pulled himself up as well. He winced at the stitches in his chest. " I must admit birthing our own child was pretty damn scary," he said, running a hand through his hair. He gave a soft sigh and leaned forward a bit, wrapping his arms around her, hugging her softly. " Let's just try and have a good day, okay?"

A giggle bubbled up from Anju's throat as a shiver ran down through her spine. " Oh, now someone is awake," she said, wrapping around arm around his neck slowly. She ran her hands down his back slowly as she gave a small gasp of pleasure, letting a hand wander up into his hair where she grasped a gentle fist of his hair lightly. She arched her back slowly up into his chest she grinned at him breathlessly. " I love you," she whispered, breathlessly. She kissed his lips tenderly, slowly easing her tongue into his mouth as she bit his lip playfully with a soft giggle. She pulled away just long enough to smile up at him. " My husband," she whispered, her bright blue eyes gleaming with pride and love.

He watched the two carefully, but a fake smile plastered across his face as he nodded. " Yes well, I am glad you two are back safe and sound. It'd be such a shame if something happened to you two so close to your wedding day. Only a weeks time now." Savananh exchanged a glance with Takeshi, giving his arm a gentle squeeze before she leaned up and kissed his cheek when her father turned her back on them . She stepped away from him and gave a polite curtsy. " Goodnight Lord Takeshi. " yet her eyes said something else. She whispered under her breath, knowing that he could hear her. "I'll see you in a bit my love," she whispered as she turned her back to him and began to follow her father up the stairs.

Axel nodded. " Of course, I would like to spend some time with her just by myself. I hadn't really gotten too much time with our sweet little Hana," he said. He stepped away from her and slowly made his way up the stairs. He glanced back at Rebecca once, before he placed a hand over his switched chest as he climbed up the stairs slowly, giving a big yawn as he made his way up. He wasn't sure where Kurosaki went and he wasn't sure he could promise that he wouldn't rain Kurosaki. This was more important than himself or his self inflicted wounds.

(Skip?)

Savannah made her way to room as she began to get ready for bed. She had a bath drawn for her as she sat in the tub. She laid there basking in the warmth of the water with a glass of whine in her hand, sipping softly and considering all the possibilities of what was to come. She let her eyes fall closed. She was preparing for the worst case, to die. After that everything was up from there. Her dark lashes dripping with water as she sipped the red liquid. She wondered when Takeshi would come back. She hoped he was doing alright and not worrying himself silly about what was happening to her but she knew that was probably not the case.

Kuroskai only barked in response. Usui sat up from where he lay on the rug playing a video game. Kursoaki was on the bed. " Yeah we can help!" Usui called, sitting up slow and shutting his game off. He set it down on the bed and made his way to the bedroom door, Kurosaki in tow. Tsui opened the door and gave a brief smile to Rebecca. " What we are going to make for dinner?" Tsui inquired as Kurosaki succuried off and around Tsui, running on all fours with a happy bark. His tail swishing behind him and his ears flopping and bending with each stride. Usui rolled his eyes and shook his head as he passed.

Anju smiled softly. " Luke, I have always thought of the future with you. To me, the thought of having a future with you is the reason I kept going some days. It was all because I wanted to live a happy life with you. And besides, a hot pot sounds amazing right now, I'll admit," Anju said with a slight laugh. She snuggled into Luke's chest, reaching around and lightly plucking at his tail with gentle playful fingers. "Do you want to maybe have something special to eat tomorrow?"

Savannah gave a sultry and knowing smirk, drinking her blood red wine. Her legs smoothy crossed in front of her and her body out for all to see as she laid there in her glory. " Hello Takeshi... It's nice to see you again," she said with an excited smile and a subdued happiness. Her brown eyes swelling with a warm deep love. Her dark laid about her, some strands, floating atop the water while other's sunk to frame and cover her breasts. " Care for a bath my love?" she asked, with a dark thin brow, drawing another sip from her red chalice.

(Sorry its a little short but I'm just getting back into again so)

Kurosaki's ear twitches he gave a quick sniff and he got up from his position. "Sorry Becca, its just its getting harder to walk on twos now," he said apologetically. Usui looked a little concerned but he said nothing as he did what Rebecca told him to do. He wondered when Axel was getting home. He hummed to himself as he helped Rebecca make the dish. It wasn't before long Axel came in the door, running his fingers through his hair, his body was slumped as if he had a long days work that he hated. Kurosaki's tail tucked between his legs. He didn't want to train anymore. Axel gazed down cooly at Kurosaki. " No need to cower. " he said in his deep voice. Pulling out the contents of pockets and setting it down on the table near the door, pulling out his cigarettes. This training isn't working anyway. I can't train him because I'm not dog myself. I can't train him the way he needs to be. I might have to look for some friends on the other side.

Anju nodded and smiled. "Thats sounds real good baby. Lets do that. Can we take a walk tomorrow as well? " she asked, letting her head fall on his chest, watching as Luke's tail wrapped around her wrist, she giggle as she admired it like a big furry bracelet.

Savannah slowly moved over to Takeshi's side of the tub with a sultry smile she said. "Don't be such a stranger my wolf boy~ What? Your afraid I'm gonna bite?" she said, with a grin, revealing her sharp white fangs, letting them glint softly in the yellow light of the bathroom. "Do you want some whine or anything while your at it?" she asked, glancing over at the bottle that was on the floor. " I don't mind sharing," she said, letting her knee rest in between his thighs with a slightly raised brow.

Kurosaki squealed and squirmed. " Aunty! That tickles! " he squealed. His tail thumped against Rebecca's belly. He blinked over at Usui who was silently dipping his fingers and hangs into the bowl full of water. Kurosaki watched him. He didn't seem quite right he smelled like he was worried. Kurosaki told his head, a little confused as to why he was feeling that way. He glanced up at Rebecca as she put him down. He watched Axel and Rebecca converse. His tail puffed out at Axel, trying to make himself look bigger. Axel ignored him, kissing Tebecca back." It was good, just another boring day at the office immafraod," he said with a slight laugh, wrapping her in a warm hug." How was your day?"

Anju ran her hand through his hair slowly, playing with his dusky hair with a soft smile. " I don't things will get bad anytime in our generation babe," she said with a soft chuckle. She let her eyes fall closed and a relaxed sigh escape her." I miss this Luke, just sitting her and being with you in this moment. It feels like forever since we've been able to do this." She said, resting her head on his and closing her eyes with a happy smile on her face.

Savannah's cheeky grin grew wider as she advanced further on Takeshi's lap, letting her hands and arms slither slowly around his neck. Her eyes glinting with a blood red." Careful babe,your getting me excited~" she leaned down towards his neck, kissing it softly and letting her fangs graze and prockbhis skin before licking up hos neck slowly." It's dangerous to make such promises to an old monster like me," she purred." Because I never forget," she whispered soft into his ear kissing the love of his est before taking it between her teeth and giving it a soft tug.

Axel smiled, dropping his things next to the door. " Yeah. That sounds good. I'm sorry. I guess its been a little bit of a hard adjustment for me being so busy and working on so many sides. To be honest I never really held a normal job in my life,"he said rubbing the back of his head. "Well, it looks like I don't much of a choice now. I want to get us out of here and into our own place soon. I mean, we have a family now. Its time to start providing and taking care of it." he said, running a hand through his hair as he made his way into the kitchen. " Yeah, of course I' ll help." he said wasting his hands and dipping them in the cool water before rolling effortless rice balls. Kurosaki's eyes widened as he stared up in aw, looking down at his own crumply mess with a little bit of a pout. Axel glanced at him from the corner of his eye and smiled.

Anju put a finger to lips for a moment in thought. " Hmmm, if I had to choose one animal... I think it would be... a tiger!" she said with a big grin. " You have a serious hot temper but your also just a big puffy cuddly mess when you want to be. Your very playful but also courageous and very territorial and protective. So I think the great cat suits you," she said with a big grin.

Savannah tilted her head back and let out a soft moan. " Now who is the one that is teasing?" she asked with a soft laugh, setting down her wine glass before running her fingers u into his hair slowly. She gave a snickering grin. "So um. Now that you brought me over here. What do you intend to do with me?"

Axel smirked a little. " I guess thats not so bad. I mean Ive never really worked a normal job. Am I supposed tone happy with it or bored? I can't tell," he said with a slight laugh as he rolled the rice about in his hands for a while, he began to hum a bit as he did. " Kurosaki looks like he is having some trouble," he said, glancing down at the boy who had crumbles of rice balls in his hands and he looked like he was about to cry. Usui rolled his eyes, trying his best to teach Kurosaki before he burst into tears. " Your not a kid anymore you know," he grumbled.

Anju laughed, creating a deep mock male voice. " Oh yes! I am older and more respectful. AT least I pretend that why but I am actually just a horny teenage boy who sits in the showers thinking of pretty woman I saw online all day," she said bursting into laughter. " I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

(Skip?)

Axel laughed. " Yes, I suppose so." He watched Rebecca for a long while. He really felt like he wasn't spending enough time with Hana. He sighed, ruffling Kurosaki's hair. "Usui, will you watch Kurosaki for me for a moment?" he asked. They nodded. Without another word he climbed up the stairs and into his daughter's room. He smiled, watching them. " Hey, do you mind if I try to calm her down?" he asked, glancing a littler nervously between his daughter and her mother. " I feel like I haven't been spending enough time with her lately. If I pick her up will she just cry harder?" he asked, a bit nervously.

Anju turned around and squealed with laughter, tossing and turning, in her attempt to get away from Luke's tickles. " Luke! Ah! stop!," she said with uncontrollable laughter. The biggest grin on her face. She was happy. She was really happy. Any girl could envy her in that moment. She was beautiful and she was perfect. She was brilliant and strong. Luke helped make her that way and for that, she was forever grateful to him.

Savannah dried her hair in front of the mirror. " Yes, I think I am going to pay a visit to my great grandson today. He has been causing a bit of mischief and I think it is time I got in on that action," she said with a growing toothy grin.

(Savannah was already a really old vampire I thought. Since I thought we were picking up right where we left off.)

Axel blinked, a little cautiously he extended his hands out to takes child slowly. His fingers were trembling ever so slightly. " I still feel like she doesn't quite feel comfortable with me yet. I think she might be a little scared of me, bot that I could blame her though. I am not the easier person to get along with." He took up Hana gently, his emerald eyes shone a little brighter as their eyes met. And he gave her a nervous smile. " Hey there Hana, how are you today?"

Anju smiled, running her fingers slowly though his hair. " I would;t have had it any other way. There really was no option of giving up on you, you see, you had my heart and even if I wanted to move on from you it would have been utterly impossible. When you left I could hardly get out bed in the morning. I didn't eat, I couldn't sleep because every time I closed my eyes all I could see was that look on your face, that look of utter betrayal and dipair, that look that was both vibrating with angry yet sad and sedated with sadness. It felt like I was being haunted by you, even though I knew you couldn't be dead, you just couldn't." Her blue eyes drifted off as she resisted the memories.

Savannah smirked, shrugging on her clothes and hopping on one foot as she put on her bright red slut pumps. When she got them on she stood by the door. She turned around, giving him a dark evil grin, her brown eyes widened with madness as her teeth ground together as if a growl was about to rip through her throat. "We have the same smile you see?" she said with a giggle. " I only know him by reputation. And technically he isn't my grandson. But he is related to me by blood. The human side of my blood of course before I was changed. One of my sisters probably started the bloodline. But I'm too old to be called aunty so grandmother and grandson will have to do. He has a rather nasty reputation as a total power hungry psychopath in the Japan underground. He seems to take after his dear old grandma....his name is Ren."

Savannah listened calmly her expression didn't change but something flickered there in her eyes. A sense of recognition but it was also something deeper. Her bangs fell over her eyes as she advanced towards Takeshi, her black hair following her in slow waves. She took the hand that had shoved the keys into his pocket. Suddenly she grabbed him, throwing him against the wall with her strength.He landed with a soft thump. She wasn't trying to hurt him. She slowly raised her head, revealing her red burning eyes through her dark lashes. " I know your worried Takeshi... Gomenasai... I didn't mean to worry you." She said, leaning her head on his shoulder and arching her lips up to kiss him softly on the neck before moving up his jaw and to the corner of his mouth. Her hand cupping his cheek softly. " I promise not to get involved with him. I don't seek to help him obtain much of anything. My goal is to use him. So please, don't be so worried that I will simply fall int such trivial things as gang riots. Maybe if you asked me 100 years ago sure but not now. I have something important to me that I can't risk loosing...Do you understand?" her breath billowed soft and warmed against his cheek.

Axel's eyes widened then darkened swiftly. " Rebecca... I can't teach you what I know." He sighed, supporting his daughter as he gazed at her. " I don't mean this in anyway but how I say it. Your not strong enough to withstand my fighting style. I can train Kurosaki because he is strong, stronger than me even but training you would be very difficult. I can teach you little things that might help you out in a fight but it would be nothing that Ren didn't know. You would only be able to surprise him for but a moment at least..." he trailed off int thought for a moment. " But what I can do is teach you how to use a gun at least. Weapons are easy enough to teach.Lets start with that. I can give you the tools to be strong but as for being strong... You will have to do that for yourself. No one can teach you that."

( Should we figure out something more interesting to do for Luke and Anju they have been on their honey for quite a while.)

Savannah's playful eyes slowly darkened and grew serious. "For your sake, I won't get too involved. But mind you, my family has a way of always smelling fishy," she said with a soft laugh. " I just want to play with him. I want to see how my great grandson turned out and... how my descants would have looked like if I would have had children myself," she said, glancing out the window, and shaking the feeling slight dread that over took her. She followed Takeshi at the door, her hands behind her back. " By babe, have a good day, or a bad one~" she said, giving a soft growl that ripped through her throat as she hopped on his back kissing his cheek softly with a deep laugh. "Please be careful," she whispered in his ear before she dropped back to her feet. She turned around and faced him, looking into his eyes in all seriousness." I love you."

Axel sighed, coming back into the room and rubbing the back of his neck. " No, no I only trust myself to teach what you need to know. You find a teacher to shoot people like I would. You might be faced with something not quite human too so if that happens I would be your best teacher. I'll just...have to swallow my own feelings back from it. Just please do as I say. Some of what I teach might sound...odd, to say the least. When would you like to start this training? After dinner when you put down Hana?" He pulled a gun swiftly out of the back of pants, twirling the trigger around his index finger without even a blink. " You see, the thing about shooting something, anything is, you have to stop feeling first. If your emotions get ahold of you, even for a second, you're dead." He caught the butt of the gun amount his fingers, balancing it there and setting it down on the table in front of Rebecca. "Thats why I think it will be hard for you. Because you will have to let go of everything you have ever known and most importantly, and what you think is right. Telling yourself it's just protection isn't enough. You have to be willing to murder, brutally and utterly murder in order to properly kill with a gun. You don't have to like it, but you must be prepared to do it, and right now, you may not be prepared for such a thing. But I agree you need some knowledge, so it's on you."

Savannah smiled. " I'm not sure if I would be the most patient mother in the world. Besides there are plenty of supernatural freaks out there. If need be we can always adopt. Probably would be best given the bad mix of power our genetics would have for a child. She said, prancing out the front door. " I guess I'll see you tonight. I won't be back too late. And please be careful. I know you are more friendly with the werewolves. I'm afraid of the vampires, they don't take nearly as kind to you as the wolves." She wrapped hear arms around his neck before leaning up and going him a big kiss, before stepping back with a sigh. "Well I guess it's time to see my delinquent genetics and what they have become of them. I'll be back for dinner! Pick something out nice to eat and we can make it when I get back okay?" She pranced down the front steps. " Love you hot stuff! Tell those she wolves your body is mine!" She said waving as she started to walk down the street.

Axel kissed her back before pulling away, looking down at Hana. " Hatred is a good motivation but you have to be calm when you pull the trigger. If you get caught up in the heat of the moment you are sure to miss." He rubbed the back of his neck, holding Hana with the other. " I can't believe I am saying this but... when do you want to start? We can start training after we put the kids to bed if you want?" he asked, searing her eye. " And before you even get your hands on a gun you are first going to understand your'e enemy and lucky for you, you are looking at the closet person to that personality. I need you to understand his personality before you even begin to tell how he thinks which then tells you how he moves and attacks."

( Should we skip for Savannah and Takeshi? We should make a plan for them the need a conflict you know? Maybe something with the werewolves and vamps we can make battle there maybe I make the king of the vamps and you make king of the wolves so we can battle it out a little to create some drama with Savannah and Takeshita?)

Axel looked down at little Hana extending out a finger to her and popping a drool bubble on her mouth with a slight mouth. His eyes slowly glanced up to Rebecca, listening before he let out a soft breath. He glanced out towards the window pensively staring at the tree outside watching the leaves shake in the wind." I can teach you that dear. But I have to warn you. It's not gonna be easy and Anju and Luke need to come back in order for us to start," he said reaching out and letting her head. " take your arms away from you live Im not trying to scare you, you'll have to trust me."

Her heels clicked softly against the cold marble flooring of his office. She was lead by a sexy secretary, her his swaying in a tight dress her breast building over the top of the bowl cut. And a pearl necklace sat there. No doubt from the high wage he generously offered them for their off the record service. I was brought to a large black door with gold engravings. A warning. It read. Before you enter this door, think carefully. Are you afraid to die? "Tch. So he's a poet!" Savannah shoved past the security who made soft squeal as kicked the heavy doors wide open. And there he sat, his head bent down his laptop as his eyes scanned darkly and calculating on his computer. When he heard the sudden jump he raised a gun to the door, a finger delicalty placed on the trigger as he continued typing. " What do you want? I'm not in the business of doing favors," he said. Yet as Ren's eyes met Savannah a slow purring lear left up from his throat as his eyes traced the curves of her body. He lowered the gun, setting the barrel on the desk towards as he tapped playfully at the trigger with a flirty smirk. " You read the sign then? I assume you are not afraid to die then. Nice to meet you, my name is Ren."

( I'm not sure what to do with Rebecca and Axel right now. Should we fast forward until Anju and Luke come back?)

Usui blinked up from his book. Axel stopped training in the back, Kurosaki bruised and dirty as he wiped a little blood away from his mouth. " Was that better?" he asked with a pant. Axel let out a harsh pained breath as he smiled up at Kurosaki from the dirt. " Yeah kiddo. You are getting a whole lot stronger now days," he said with a slight laugh as he pulled himself up with a soft grunt. Kurosaki blinked, his head snapping in the direction of the door. " Mama and Daddy are home!" he cried, practically barking with joy she darted towards the house.

Anju laughed, " You don't have to ask," she said, wrapping her arms around her neck and hiking herself up into a ball, waiting for Luke to cup under her, eyes shimmering with joy as she bushed his bangs out of his eyes with a smile. She rested her head on his chest with a soft thump.

" Are we agreed then?" Savannah said as the soft clink of their glasses rang through the silent office. Ren smirked, leaning back into his chair, his eyes flashing up to her as he placed the glass to his lips. " Not sure. It depends," he said, cooly, taking a sip of his drink. Savannah's body hardened and she bit back a rolling growl from her throat. " What?" Ren smirked, stifling a laugh. " There is one problem," he said. Savannah rolled her eyes. " What is that?" she asked. Ren let out a soft giggle, like a sick child. " There is just something I need you to do first." Savannah's hand tightened around her glass. " And... what is that?" Ten raised the glass towards the light of his office, watching the red wine glistening like a small sea of dark blood. It made him excited. He began to sexually arroused thinking of the all the blood soon to spill. " Tell me granny, can you kill a couple people?"

" Its nothing to be ashamed of," the man said with a high smile as he hiked his glasses up the bridge of the nose. The glass catching the glint of the bright fluorescence above. A small girl sat in the waiting room chair, pressing her fingers softly to the soft inside of her wrist, where a bandage hugged her skin. Her ice blue eyes sullen, but calculating as she listened carefully. Her eyes were dark and bruised but bore down bright on the doctor as they flicked up to meet his gaze. " And what if I say no?" her voice rang clear through the small consoling room. The doctor's smile slowly dropped as he let out a sharp sigh. " Then the next time we meet I might be zipping up your body bag, Anju." Anju turned staring out the window with a hard yet complacent stare. " Your not getting any better. You aren't ganging any weight. Your anorexia is the worst Iv'e ever seen it. Just please try them. If they don't help you can always stop," the doctor said. As the familiar sound of a jangling pills in the bright orange bottle surfaced itself in front of Anju. The doctor held the bottle out in front of her with worried eyes and a glass of water. Anju slowly took the water and pills with a shaking breath. She took a pill into her mouth, taking a sip of water, feeling it slowly slide down her throat. He gave a small smile. Anju gave one back. " You'll be feeling better in no time." Anju left the doctor's office that day, as soon as she was out of sight. She ran to the bathroom, jamming her finger hard back in her throat as she threw up quickly. The pill not fully dissolved there floating in the toilet water. She looked at the pills, in that bottle, about to throw them away but thought better, she could sell them on the street. She jammed them back in her pocket as she walked down the cold Washington street. Her breath soft billowing white in the cold as she traced her steps back to her apartment. " There is no saving something like me doc, sorry."

( Im gonna introduce them one at a time. Heads up!)

Anju let out a slow soft breath, tilting her head back into the warmth of her shower. Before turning the creaking knob and stepping out. Her apartment was a piece of shit to put it nicely. But there was her cat, Tuna, waiting there, sitting on her warm towel looking at her purring with joy. Anju smiled a little then. " Thanks Tuna," she said, running her wet hand over the cat's head and back where he arched his tail up, shaking the water off his head as he leaped down from the folded towel on top of the toilet. Anju had to get ready for work soon. As she wiped the steamed mirror down, putting on her make up. She let out a slow breath, she worked at a coffee joint. But not just any coffee joint sadly, the slutty ones. Where woman had to dress up in revealing getups and prance around. Anju didn't like much, but she liked her extra tips well enough. She slipped on her fish nets, hiked her little black skirt up her body. Slid on her deep white v neck shirt that had the company logo on the front, earring her push up bra. She left in her black and red heels, slipping her army green raincoat over the top with brown fur trim. She fished around her pockets and pulled out a pack of cigarettes, grabbing her wallet and walking out the door. She bounced onto the sidewalk in a few bounds before lighting the cigarette, hiking her fur trimmed hood up on her head and inhaling deep. The bright orange of her ember lighting up her face with each stride she clacked gracefully down the sidewalk. She got looks off course. Wearing such a thing in the cold like that. But Anju did not seem to be bothered. It was simply another day. It was simply another day going to work to her shit job in her shit life.

Anju felt the man walking down the street. But that isn't what interested her. She could sense his beating heart. The very familiar energy, the feeling, she knew too well. She inhaled deep on her cigarette as they walked past each other. " I smell a lab rat," she said under her breath, testing if he could hear her. If he was what she thought he was, there was no way he could have missed it. She kept walking, not even breaking stride. Her ice blue eyes watching his back out of the corner of her eyes before tracing back in front of her, walking down the street in stride. Hiding her silver hair within her hood. Unlike most girls on the street her hair wasn't dyed silver and if you looked too close at her hair, they were find threads of fine soft feathers, making her hair look even sleek and softer than normal. Girls at her work would always get jealous of her hair. If only they knew, she thought grimly. She saw her work on the corner of her block. " Bottomless Espresso." She made a design walking on that street corner. If that boy turned around, if he followed her in, if he wanted to talk. Maybe she would sneak him a free meal. She sensed he was stressed, tired and cold. But maybe it was her own thoughts playing with her again. Maybe she was just going crazy. For what were the odds she would ever meet someone from the lab on the streets like that. And why in the hell would she seek out a total stranger who could kill her if she knew. Ah, she knew the answer to that one. She wanted to die. She was hoping maybe, just maybe, if this man as bad, he could give her what she wanted. And if he wasn't maybe he would get a free meal and some company.
