Maybe it was the mood of the atmosphere around them that seemed to draw them to silence. "Do you want the limousine to pick you up?" Did she want it to pick her up? She didn't know what she wanted to do. Was there really a choice in this matter or no? "No. I'll find my way around before the sun reaches the horizon."
It didn't bother her to just wander around the streets trying to find something occupy her time before she headed in to avoid the sun's blistering rays. Maybe she would just go and walk home instead of having the limo come and pick her. She didn't want to burden the driver with having to pick her up and then go and wait for another order from Xavier to come pick him up, but she didn't see that happening.
"They can avoid persecution for trying to defend the city. They won't be able to stop them, so I'm going to have to."
"Oh. I hope you defeat them. Don't want to see this beautiful city in shambles because some demons didn't see the beauty of it to avoid destroying it." Rowan had followed him out of the elevator. She thought about where she would go. Maybe she would go and disturb some of the homeless, mess with their heads before leaving them on the side of the street where they resided, alone and confused.
She had stepped outside and smelled the air. Didn't seem to the change the last time she was outside. She would take her leave now before he kept her any longer. Rowan could sense something seemed off with the elder vampire and she didn't want to be in the way any longer. "I'll tell you my adventures when we can see each again after the demons. Don't destroy the city!" She had called out to him as she headed up toward Bourbon Street, picking up her pace and disappeared into the night. 333 words. Lord Xavier is starring. University Hospital is the location.

He is despised and rejected of men ( a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief ) [atrb=border,0,true][atrb=align,center][atrb=style,width: 410px; padding: 10px; background-color: #2e5187; border: 1px dotted #000000; -moz-box-shadow: 5px 5px 5px #000000; -webkit-box-shadow: 5px 5px 5px #000000;] and we hid as it were our faces from him Walking through the lobby, the vampire lord allowed his attention to wander, soaking in the sight of the sick hobbling up to the main desk, receptionists pointing to an area of crowded seats, telling them to kindly wait their turn. Why couldn't they just drop down and die already? He would even be willing to help them on their way, and at no charge, purely from the kindness of his black heart. This world was so crowded, over populating the thin crust that was the earth, fire and brimstone waiting below to lick up their flesh and spit out their bones. He didn't know how much longer he could stomach it all. It was times like these that he couldn't help but guess at how much longer he would have to spend on this planet. When would he finally be dragged into the deepest pits of hell?
Not bothering to look at his fledgling, the vampire master responded none-the-less, "I am sure they won't share your sentiment. New Orleans, beautiful or not, is in for one hell of a ride." Stepping through the entrance/exit of the hospital, the vampire fished out the packet of luxury cigarettes and popped one in his mouth. It had been hours since he had enjoyed his last cigarette and he could feel the demon that was addiction gnawing at his insides.
Waving his lighter over the tip of his cigarette, shoving it back into his pocket, Xavier took a nice long drag from the death stick. Taking his time to exhale all of the smoke, he could feel the little demon in his chest giving way, ceasing with its incessant nibbling. Standing outside the automatic doors that lead to the house of the sick, he stared around as people stumbled in, holding broken noses, limbs, and burst blood vessels in the eye.
Pulling the cigarette from his mouth, the vampire studied the horizon, deciding it would be a few hours before his greatest enemy rose from his sleep and lit the sky with his far-reaching flames. Not bothering to bid his fledgling a farewell, he watched as she scurried off into the night, passively wondering what might befall her now that she was venturing out on her own. It was a struggle to remember the last time the two of them had been separated from one another's side. But he had to accept that she needed to make her own mistakes; she was a slave for pity's sake, she wasn't his daughter. The thought stabbed at his mind like a dagger, causing him to drop his cigarette. Crushing it under his foot, the vampire lord left the hospital, hoping to return no time soon. table and image by crayola. |
