(I was in the back of the van outside my home, I slammed the door shut and took a deep breath. The snow outside didn't help, Lucifer was getting closer and we didn't know what his next move would be).
Eliza got outside shivering it was colder than she imagined. She closed her phone frowning. "Guess i don't have real good news for now honey..." She said looking at Larry
'It figures, I'm sorry if our night ended too soon..' (I said, rubbing my hands together to try and keep them warm) '.. So whats the plan? We go to Bobby's or something?'
"Well at the moment i have Autumn already there she said the place is a mess...Hope nothng happened to Bobby..." She let a long sigh out
"I know Bobby, he taught me everything I know about demons" Phil said walking over to them, he was shivering "Damn I could use a nice mug of hot tea or coffee!" he said trying to crack a smile.
(I grinned, it was great to have another partner. I had a feeling that Phil would help keep a light at the end of the tunnel) 'Me too, in fact I've got some..' (I reached into my rucksack and pulled out a thermos, I then got some cups and poured Phil and Eliza some tea) 'Here, get that down your neck..'
Eliza drank slightly lost in her thoughts. She didn't like the fact that she was not having a total control over the current events. She sighed and stared at her cup.
"This is sure good, do I detect coconut in this?" Phil asked smiling.
(I nodded at Phil, but my my mind was focused on Eliza. I hated seeing her depressed, I moved over to her and held her hand) 'Eliza, don't worry. I'll make sure we end this soon..' (I tried to give a slight smile, but I felt like I wouldn't be able to lift her heart).
Eliza forced a smile to Larry. She hated to be like that in front of him but after all she was the boss now and she knew that the stress was just going to be harder to handle. But this particular case was going to be awfull since it was concerning there friends. She let a long sigh out and close her eye hoping that her powers will be enaugh against Lucifer.
(I moved over to her and hugged her gently, I wanted to make her feel safe. I knew that Bobby was okay, he felt like the kind of person that wouldn't go down easy. Phil looked at us, he probably suspected that we were lovers, but I didn't really care. Eliza's soft face against mine was enough to give me strength, I stroked her hair and held her hand) 'I need you to be strong for me Eliza, I can't do this without you..'
Eliza smiled to him and kissed his cheek tenderly. Only Larry could have made her feel the way she was feeling, safe and powerful. She gaze onto his eyes and put her head on his shoulder. "I love you" She wispered in his ear. She knew that there was no reglementation about relationship in the FBI she had already looked and knew that they could be lovers.
(I held her closely, my heart was racing slightly. I kissed her lips passionately) 'I deeply love you Eliza, I'll make sure Lucifer dies. I promise you..'
Eliza kissed him passionatly back and smiled. "Even if he don't die lets send that mother fucker back to hell!" She was aware that it was not her kind of language but after everything that has happened latelly she was having enaugh.
(I smiled, my eyes suddenly started to glow green like how my hands had) 'Maybe I'll keep him trapped in whatever Human form hes in, and take away all his powers. Making him nothing more then a worthless human..' (I said, smiling at Eliza).
Eliza chuckled slightly "Or free his vessel so the person that has fall for his scheme will be free and send to heaven..." She kissed him slightly and turned to Phil. "Well Phil i am happy to have you with us!"
"Its no problem at all, as long as we get some fried chicken along the way I'm super-dooper!" he laughed "Now, what kinda of gas does this here van take? I would say unleaded by something is telling me its regular gas".
"Well fried chicken is fine to me!" She say laughing this partnership was really going to be perfect she tought. The man of her life plus a funny guy that likes food nothing could be better.
(My eyes were still glowing green, I walked over to Eliza and Phil and put my arms around them) 'Fried chicken sounds great, I think thats what I want all day' (My voice had slightly gotten rougher like Castiel's. I smiled then loaded up my 9mm) 'Lets get us some chicken).
Eliza looked at Larry and frowned slightly. Not that she hated Castiel but having her soon to be Husband sounding like him was not making her confortable.
'Well come on people. we don't have all day!' (I said laughing wildly, my heart was racing for Chicken. Eliza looked worried and Phill looked scared) *Is KFC okay?* (asked Phil) 'It sure is, I'm gonna eat so much!' (I laughed).
Eliza frowned more and stared at Larry. He has never been like that before she was not scared of him but at the look of Phil she was scared that he pass out or something. "Honey are you ok?"
'Yeah babe, I've never felt more alive! The things I could do to you right now... Damn, I like chocolate don't you? I wonder if they have an Ice cream machine there.. Do you think they might honey?' (I said kissing her hand one hundred times non stop)
"Easy there tiger...You look like a freaky teenager on speed in the middle of an afterhour..." She was really not smiling the seriousness on her face was showing her dissaproval. She was the boss after all it was now time to set things back the way they were suppose to be. "Ok enaugh Humptinberg we have a job to do" She removed her hand.
'Oh okay my sweet flower of the earth..' (I grinned winking at her, suddenly Bon Jovi came on the radio) 'OH MY GOD! I love this song! Shot Through The Heart, And Your To Blame, You Give Love A Bad Name!' (I sang loudly, I then opened up the window and stuck my head out the window letting the cool air wipe my hair) 'WOO HOO! I'm king of the world!'.
"I'm getting to old for this shit.." Phil said sighing.
"Wish Castiel was here he could put him to sleep..." She sighed
'Oh cheer up sunshine' (I smiled at her, resting my head on her shoulder. I then started making the Pac-Man sound).
Eliza turned to Phil. "Well he is not like this usually..." She sighed and shouted "Castiel can you bring your Feather holyness here please we have a slight problem..." She was hoping he would come
Phil smiled "I totally understand, same thing happened to my son Marlo. He went crazy for about 2 hours then was himself again."
(Castiel didn't arrive, I started to tickle Eliza) 'Whos my sugarlump, who's my sugarlump?' (I said in a playful voice, moving my fingers gently).
Eliza looked at Larry frowning she was too mad to laugh. He was acting like a kid and it was not professional. "Enaugh Humptinberg we have work to do...Do make me give you a warning..."
(I sighed) 'Your no fun anymore, we might as well give Vegas a pass. You need to lighten up, let me buy you a coke and then I'll take you on a roller-coaster!' (I grinned at her, I held her hand softly and kissed her gently. I then made a red rose appear out of thin air) 'For you my Queen..' (I bowed my head).
Phil was trying to focus on the road, he didn't know what to think of Agent Humptinberg. He pulled up in front of KFC and smiled "Okay, we're here!".
(I clapped my hands together, grinning at Phil) 'Thank you so much, your now my friend forever!' (I opened up the back door and exited the van jumping around).
Eliza sighed and turned to Phil. "I have no idea what to do about him now...It's not professional at all...We have a reputation in the FBI.."
"Don't worry about him, he should be fine in an hour or so" Phil smiled, getting out the van.
(I held Eliza's hand, her sweet smell made me start to blush) 'I think your such an incredible person Eliza, you make me want to sing.. In fact I will, I'm Sailing Away, Set an open course for the virgin sea.'
Eliza was trying hard not to smack Larry to get his senses back or to freeze his brain, but the air around her was getting colder. She was not liking his attitude at all since they were working and it was suppose to be professional.
Phil watched with his mouth open and Larry skipped to the entrance, he then picked up some snow and said "SNOWBALL FIGHT!" He threw a snowball at Phil, who smiled and threw one back at him. Larry was laughing like a kid one a sugar hype.
(I then fell backwards into the snow and smiled at the stars in the sky) 'Oh Eliza, none of them are as beautiful as yourself!'.
"Thanks Humptinberg but we are working now and i am your boss there is no place for flirting or love keep that for when we will be alone out of the working planning." The air around her was getting colder but she was not feeling it since she was causing it and she was not even aware of it.
(I stood up, and looked into her eyes) 'Eliza, the world could end tomorrow. I don't think we need to worry about our reputation anymore, I want to hold you and kiss your beautiful soul..' (I moved my hand onto her face and then deeply kissed her).
Eliza took a step back that was enaugh she moved her hands in front of her and pushed Larry, strange ice came out of her hands as he body turned completely to ice. "Stop acting like a kid!" She said angrily.
(I started to cry, my eyes had turned from green to light gold) 'Eliza, I.. I..' (I turned my head and cried in my hands)
Eliza looked at her hands that were now blueish and totally frozen, she runned toward the back of the KFC scared of what she had become.
(I ran after her and held her arm, I gazed into her eyes) 'I forgive you, I'm sorry. I couldn't control myself..' (I hugged her gently).
Eliza started to cry ice shards. It was hard for her to control her power when she was angry and Larry had gone over the top. "It's ok Larry please act like a real agent...When we are working..." She fall into his arms and her body slowly went back to normal.
(My eyes had turned back to green, I couldn't control it. I held her closely and kissed her nose) 'I'm really sorry, come on Special Agent Holmes, we've got a job to do..'
Phil shook his head and walked inside KFC without them.
Eliza smiled to Larry. "Yes Agent Humptinberg...And i am hungry..." She kissed his cheek and walked to the KFC smiling.
(I was go glad to be back in control, Eliza was my world and I didn't want to lose her) 'So, what do you feel like? I think I'll have the twister..'
"Think i'll have that too...Been a while since i hate KFC to be honest..."She chuckled slightly and enter the restaurant.
(I kissed her cheek then pretended to be the hard boiled FBI Agent I was supposed to be. Phil was already ahead of the line *Yeah I'll have two king-size buckets and a large amount of fries and a small diet coke* (I grinned slightly, my friend Frank was like like, ordering a lot of food and then a small diet cola).
When it was her turn Eliza took a Twister, a small fries and a pepsi. She was not the kind to look at her weight, she was running so much in her work that she didn't had the time to train.
(I had the same as Eliza, only with a tub of Ice Cream on the side. We sat down next to Phil and started to talk) 'Okay team, I know that I was acting a little... out of the my mind, but I'm find now..'
Eliza looked at Larry and smiled "It's ok agent Humptingberg as long as you act normally when we are working every thing will be ok." She was herself again the old agent that was controling everything around her.
Phil started to laugh "You had a real crazy look in your eye you ol' son of a bitch!" Larry also began to laugh "I really hope I don't go as crazy like that again" he said, taking a bite of his twister.
(I moved my hand onto Eliza's underneath the table, I smiled happily as we locked fingers) 'So Holmes, hows your food?' (I asked, playing along with her, trying to be a tough agent was hard work).
"Really good...How is your Humptinberg?" She said grining. It was hard to be all serious around him but she had too she was the boss now even if she didn't like the postion.
'Very good thanks, if only it had a little more love made into it, I'd call it a beautiful goddess..' (I was throwing out hints to Eliza, I hoped she would realize my code talk) '..In fact its like being a hot soapy bath that you never want to get out of..'
Eliza blushed slightly and took a bite of her twister. She was trying to be professional but Larry was not helping her.
Phil didn't understand a word that was coming out of Humptinberg's mouth, he shrugged "Well I guess you could say that about it. I'd just call it a tasty meal" he laughed, taking another piece of chicken.
I totally agree with you Agent Freeman." She smiled to Phil. It was hard to be all professional after what has happened with Larry but that was a boss job.
'Yes thats also true, but I like to treat it as I would a lady. Its soft and tender, the only way to enjoy its true flavor is by caring for it..' (I could see Eliza was blushing) '.. The best thing to do is to be gentle with it, and lick the juicy flavor it gives you.. by doing this it may then allow itself to pleasure you.. I mean please you..'
Eliza choked on her twister laughing. GOsh that was hillarious. She took a long sip of her pepsi trying to stop laughing.
(I started laughing as well, I couldn't help myself) 'Oh god, I can't keep this up..' (I said laughing, my stomach was starting to hurt. Phil was looking at us like we were both crazy) *You been smoking pot or something?* (he asked us, I laughed even harder as he said that).
Eliza looked at Phil smiling. "Nah I am just trying to act like the boss that i am suppose to be but this little brat keeps screwing everything up!" She said laughing. " I can believe i am marrying you Larry you are such a little brat" She stick her tongue out at him.
(I smiled at her and winked) 'Yeah I know, but ya know you love me that reason!' (I quickly kissed her and held her hand, Phil laughed) *I don't care how you two act, I'm only here for the fun I guess*
"Well as the boss i declare that we have fun and we eat good food..." She said smiling
"Damn straight!" Phil laughed "Besides, where does it say that two agents can't fall in love? It doesn't. And that how I met my wife".
'Wow, I guess we didn't read through thoroughly' (I grinned at her, that had made my evening more enjoyable now).
"Well i did my researchs and there is not reglementation about this even if one of them is the boss of the other the only thing they want is that we stay professional...But since we are just 3 working together we don't need to be too formal i guess..."
'Of course not, if we're working together we can't be under stress..' (I smiled, my bruised eye was hurting from earlier) '..Oh damn it, you sure know how to pack an Ice punch Eliza. Remind me to NEVER piss you off into rage mode!' (I laughed, holding her hand. Phil smiled then went to the bathroom).
Eliza moved her hand over his bruise and made it dessapear. "I am surprised you didn't heal you are suppose to be immortal honey..." She said frowning.
'Beats me, maybe I was just in shock that it forgot.. Eliza I'm deeply sorry, god only knows how much I love you..' (I held her hands, gazing into her eyes) '.. This new power of mine, it felt good, I'll admit, but also made me realize that this is also a curse..'
"I told you honey...Some powers can be dangerous...We have to use them carefully " She kissed his nose smiling. "I love you with all my heart Larry but we have to be carefull ok? "
'Yeah I..' (Suddenly without warning and car went flying through the window knocking me face down to the ground, luckily it missed Eliza. I quickly healed and got back up, in from of us was Lucifer, he was using the body of Bobby) *Hello kids, Bobby's back!*.
Eliza got up really quick and glared to Bobby / Lucifer. "Since when can you use a body without asking the permission insect?" SHe said with the voice of Celestia.
*Oh he did say yes, before I killed Sam & Dean that is* (Lucifer said smiling, he noticed me and yawned) *Well kid, lets see what you got* (I clenched my fist, my eyes glowing green again) 'Bring it on pencil neck!'.
"You should bow to me insect!" She glared to Lucifer
*To you, why should I? Your nothing more then a filthy whore* (I snapped, I ran over to Lucifer and knocked him onto the ground. He looked scared) *How did you?-* (I didn't let him finished I broke his legs with the snap of my fingers, he screamed in pain) 'Now you know how Bobby felt, I'm going to end you!' (I spat, grabbing him by the throat and squeezing hard).
Eliza looked at Larry as Celestia left her body. "Larry don't damage Bobby's body too much or i won't be able to heal him!"
(I suddenly realized, but it caught me off guard. Lucifer kicked me in the ribs and back-flipped over me) *Too slow kiddo* he then snapped his fingers and a bolt of lightning went through my body. I screamed as I fell onto my knees and then face-down on the ground. Lucifer then disappeared).
"God damn it!" She said frowning that stupid Lucifer was driving her nuts. He could have at least choose an other body than her friend's. She took a deep breath looking at the damage in the KFC and sighed.
(I wasn't moving... I bright light was upon me, it was telling me to follow its... I wouldn't go..) 'No.. get away..' (I moaned, I couldn't feel mys arm or legs.)
Eliza turned to Larry waiting for him to get up. He was healing usually really fast. She walked toward him slowly. "Honey come on get up now he is gone" She was not seeing the light or hearing Larry talk since it was in an other dimension.
(I couldn't hear her, my eyes were slowly closing.. my breathing slowing down...)
Seeing the he was not getting up she rushed to him using her healing powers on him.
(I gasped for air, I saw Eliza next to me. I held her closely and smiled) 'Thank god you came, I didn't want to go..' (Suddenly I noticed that Phil was no where around, the van had also disappeared..)
Eliza hugged him tight. "You will not go my love i will always be there to bring you back..." She smiled and kissed him passionatly
(I held her soft face, a little feeling inside me felt worried. I didn't deserve to walk away. There are no happy endings) 'Come on, lets go find Phil..'
She nodded slowly and kissed him again. She was afraid to lose him. He was the first one she ever really loved in her life. "Ok honey let's find him...Celestia told me that Dean and Sam are safe and sound...for now..."
'Thank god, I can't believe Lucifer is using Bobby. That bastard..' (I walked back towards building with Eliza, my hands in my pockets. Eliza's appearance had triggered a dislocation. Schizophrenia. I felt elation, but with it, fear that all the past evils had come along for the ride).
"We will send him back to his freakin box honey believe me even Celestia is getting the angel army ready...I didn't know God could be pissed thought..." She said laughing. Celestia's voice in her head was screaming of rage most of the time.
(I gave her a slight smile, I heard her perfectly, but my mind was focused on Lucifer. What was he planning? My eyes were still glowing green, I knew I would have to train my mind to study my powers) 'Eliza, by the way this is going I'm finding it hard to smile. I just want one thing, you safe..'
Well i am safe don't worry Celestia is keeping an eye on me..." She frowned slightly. Larry had changed from the funny Larry to the no emotion in no time and she was starting to be scared.
'Eliza, I'm sorry but this has just got personal..' (I said, looking at her) '..He could go after Karl, if anything happened to my son.. I'd..' (My voice slightly shook, the trouble with caring about something is the fear of losing it, or never getting one more moment with it. The thought makes you weak, unable to think clearly).
"I am sure he won't honey..." She was trying to reassure him but come to think of it that's exactly what she would have done to break someones heart. She as always been able to think like the psycho she was going after and this time she knew more than anyone what was his next step.
'We have to get to San Francisco, I'll go and get our train tickets. You find Phil and meet me there, if you can't find him it for the best..' (I kissed her cheek and got out my badge and flashed it in front of a car about to leave) 'I'm sorry sir, I'll need your car. Official FBI emergence..' (The man nodded and got out the car, I got in and drove off).
Eliza was about to tell him something but Larry was already gone. "We have faster ways to travel now..." She sighed and went to find Phil
(With no way to deal with the past, I kept my eyes on the road, off the rear-view mirror and the road-kill behind me. Your past has a way of sneaking up on you. You'll hear broken echoes of it everywhere, like a bad replay. You'll get mad at everyone for reminding you about it, even if it's all in your head. I sighed and thought about Eliza, I wouldn't let Lucifer lay a finger on her. I then pulled the car into the train station parking lot, getting out of the car and taking a swig from my jacket flask).
Eliza looked everywhere to find phil but it seams like he was long gone. She asked around and people told her they saw him took the van and left. She knew he was scared easily but he had left them and she was mad about it. She got inside the KFC and took a coffee while waiting for Larry talking to local officers that has came because of the car that crashed into the building.
(I got out my cell phone after getting the tickets, I punched in Eliza's number and her phone started to ring).
Eliza looked at her phone and told the officer in front of her to wait. " Special Agent Holmes..."
'Eliza its me. I've got the tickets, be waiting for you inside the station..' (I said in a rough voice, taking another sip of whiskey from the flask) '.. You find Phil?'.
"Apperently he took the van and run away in terror...Well that's what witnesses told me...Ok finishing here with the locals and i'll be right there..." She hung up the phone and kept talking to the officers. About 10 mins later she was teleported to the train station by one of the walked inside the station looking ofr Larry.
(I saw her and walked over, the flask still in my hand. You come to, amidst the wreckage of your own making. Do you stay there, eyes squeezed shut, afraid to move, hoping to bleed to death? Or do you crawl out, help your loved ones, make sure the fire doesn't spread, try to fix it?) 'You ready?' (I asked, putting my other hand on her shoulder).
Eliza looked at the flask frowning. Something was odd about Larry and she was not sure she really like it. She was in love that was true but the way he was acting reminded her of an old boyfriend that use to beat her when he was drunk. Without noticing her move she moved her shoulder removing Larry's hand her shoulder. "Yes i am agent Humptinberg"
'So its this official crap again? If thats you want it Holmes fine..' (I said frowning, when entertainment turns into a surreal reflection of your life, you're a lucky man if you can laugh at the joke. Luck and I weren't on speaking terms, or maybe the place was just too damn lame to be funny. I put my flask in my pocket and walked towards a bench, waiting for the train. Your past is like pieces of a broken mirror. You try to pick them up, but you only end up cutting yourself.)
Eliza looked at him and tears appears in her eyes. He was turning into what she was scared of and she didn't like it. She walked toward a wall and lend against it. She was used to be official the real agent she was. The way Larry just talked to her was breaking her inside. She didn't even looked at him, staring blankly at a point she was trying to control her ice power and her tears at the same time.
(There was no glory in this. I hadn't asked for this crap. Trouble had come to me, in big dark swarms. The good and the just, they were like gold dust in this city. I had no illusions. I was not one of them. I was no hero. Just me and the gun, and the crook. My options had decreased to a singular course. Snow fell like ash from post-apocalyptic skies, it was colder than the devil's heart, raining ice pitchforks as if the heavens were ready to fall. I had a bullet with Lucifer's name on it. I had ten thousand bullets with the bastard's name on them, just when you thought you had reached the deepest depths of horror, it suddenly got worse. How to turn off that small voice inside your head that started to whisper that you should be glad... that now, if not before, your revenge was justifiable on any conceivable moral scale. That small voice proved, beyond any doubt, that I was damned. I sighed and and looked at Eliza, I was mad at myself for doing this to her).
Eliza started walking around ignoring Larry. She was too mad at him. She took the ring and put it in her pocket. That was enaugh she was an FBI agent with a cold heart not a lover. She took a couple of deep breath looking away. She knew she had to do this to keep her mind together.
(The truth was a burning green crack through my brain. Weapon statistics hanging in the air, glimpsed out of the corner of my eye. Endless repetition of the act of shooting, time slowing down to show off my moves. The paranoid feel of someone controlling my every step. I was in a computer game. Funny as Hell, it was the most horrible thing I could think of. I felt like I was walking into a trap. And I felt guilty, like I was about to get caught. I stood up and walked over to Eliza) 'I'm sorry Eliza, you have to try and understand what I'm going through right now!'
She looked at him with a serious face. "I understand agent Humptinberg but we have to keep our head cold and let the emotions asside in order to do our job well. If Lucifer is really after your son we will try and keep him safe..." She didn't even smile she was like a robot.
(I didn't know what Eliza wanted, if it was the same thing that I was after. To kill those who were trying to kill her. The bullet, real or imagined, lodged in her head routing her synapses. Driving her on) 'Please don't shut me out, I need you by my side when the shit hits the god damn fan!' (All this time we got the fable of Sleeping Beauty wrong. The prince didn't kiss her to wake her up. No one who slept for a hundred years is likely to wake up. It was the other way round. He kisses her to wake himself up from the nightmare that has brought him there).
"Hope you won't put our life in danger there agent. I need you to focus...I am even thinking about going there alone...You are too close of the present mission that could interfere with your judgement..."
'What you don't seem to understand is I've got nothing to lose!' (I said, getting angry with the fact she kept treating me like another Agent, We were partners. I felt the rise of that old familiar feeling. I hated it, but I also welcomed it. This is love. When someone drags you from the wreckage when you have given in, ready to just lie there and die. This is love. When someone, no matter what the cost, shows you there is hope, a choice, that you can put down your gun. This is love. Love hurts) 'I'm not letting you go alone, you may be my boss but I don't really give a fuck about what authority you have. We're partners! To the end!'
Eliza looked at him and frowned. "Think i should call HQ and remove you from this case... You don't seam to understand that i am your boss and that we are not partners anymore..." She stared at him as the air around her became colder. He was not the same as he was before and she really hated that.
(If you think nothing can get to you, you're lying to yourself. At best you're temporarily dead. A lightning bolt could re-animate you without a warning. There are things in life you cannot choose. How you feel, without Eliza's help, I'd be a dead man. Suddenly, for the first time in I don't know how long, I realized, I didn't wish to be dead. Tears were pouring out my eyes slowly, like a lemon being squeezed until you can hear it scream. In a nightmare, every choice you make is a wrong one. I would wake up at night, afraid that day was a dream I'd forget. I covered my face in my palms, wanting to make this night stop and reset itself. However in reality, time doesn't wait for you.)
Eliza looked at him with no emotions and walked away looking at the clock with a sigh. She was not liking the guy in front of her at all. Larry was not there anymore, the man she had fall for at least. He was the same body but not the mind. She looked at the other people waiting for there train with no emotions just ready incase a demon decided to come for her.
(Before my new powers I would have found a way to do this nice, neat and clean. These powers were tuning me into the person I never wanted to become, I had tried to run from it, edit it out. There are no choices. Nothing but a straight line. The illusion comes afterwards, when you ask "Why me?" and "What if?". When you look back and see the branches, like a pruned bonsai tree, or forked lightning. If you had done something differently, it wouldn't be you, it would be someone else looking back, asking a different set of questions. I had taken on the role of the mythic detective: Bogart as Marlowe, or as Sam Spade going after the Maltese Falcon. To unravel all the mysteries, following a path of clues to that final revelation, even if it would take me down to the cold, cavernous depths of a grave.)
Eliza was breathing deeply. The tears were trying to come out. Larry just hurted her more than she thought and she was only thinking about going somewhere else. She never thought that his powers could turn him into someone like that. Hers didn't done anything wrong to her. She sighed deeply trying to think of the good time they had together other than what was going on.
(I walked over to Eliza, and gave her my badge) 'I'm sorry Agent Holmes, I acted out of line. If you feel as though i should be removed from this investigation, please do so..' (Tears were slowly falling out my eyes, my heart hurt more then anything. Suddenly my eyes had turned from green to blue, as though I was getting control of my emotions again).
"It's special agent Holmes...And i will keep you on this investigation if you control your emotions Humptinberg. I don't have time for your emotions breakdowns...There are lives at stake here i hope that you remember. " She was staring at him with tears in her eyes but her face was showing no emotions. She was hurt but staying professional.
(I nodded, pulling out the flask from my pocket and throwing it into the trash can beside the bench. I took a deep sigh, I had to win Eliza's heart back, it tore me to pieces that she was no longer wearing her ring. I made sure I kept mine still on, the feeling of it on my finger gave me hope, a chance to live a normal life. Once this was all over, I'd ask the gods to take away this new power, it was not part of me that I wanted) 'Eliza, I will make this up to you.. I promise, cross my heart and hope to die..'
"I hope you will..." She said softly looking away. There was something bothering her in the train station the feeling of being watched and she really hated it. She looked around frowning trying to find who was watching but she couldn't find anything strange.
(I moved closer to Eliza, wanting to embrace her lips. Suddenly without warning, four men in black suits came out from the doors behind us, they had machine guns in there hands. I quickly thought fast and pushed Eliza behind cover as the bullets fired in slow-motion, each one hitting me in the chest. I barely felt anything, I reached my hand into my jacket and pulled out my duel 9mm's, firing back at them as tough I was moving faster then everyone else. I made sure Eliza was well protected).
Eliza turned her body to ice and threw ice shards at one of the man who fell to the ground uncouncious. One of the man fired at her and she didn't feel anything the ice was protecting her body. She looked at Larry to make sure he was doing fine scared to lose him
(I dived over the bench and shot my pistols at them in slow-motion, each bullet going through their skulls. More of them came from another entrance, a man grabbed me and tried to cut my throat with a knife. I smacked his ears, then dislocated his jaw, with a final kick to his groin, knocking him down and smashing his face onto the ground. I threw some ammo to Eliza, I could make as much as I wished. There must have been about ten of these people, they had been trained well, but me and Eliza were better).
Protecting herself with ice Eliza was getting a lot of bullets without moving. She didn't need ammos since she was using her powers to get them. Sending ice shard throught there heads and bodies she was unstopable. Something was telling her to keep going that she was doing a good job.
(I suddenly lost concentration, two of the men started to beat me up, breaking my nose in the process. I sweeped both of their legs, then left hooked the first man while preforming a back-kick to the other, before finishing the completely by smashing their faces into the wall. All the others started to retreat) 'Damn it.. Are you okay Eliza?' (I asked, rushing over to her and holding onto her hand)
Eliza's body turned back to normal and she smiled to Larry. "Yes i am ok...Good thing i can do that..." She let a long sigh out looked around at the bodies. "Guess Lucifer won't let us go easilly...But still why is he saneding people that are that easy to takwe down?" She asked thinking
(I wondered the same thing, my eyes had changed back to normal) 'Maybe he's trying to see how strong we are, like a chance to prepare himself for when we find him.. I'm just glad your fine, I like your new power by the way, very bad-ass!' (I smiled, holding her close to me).
"Well i really love it too...Easier to control than i thought...But gosh it hurts for the other people..." She chuckled and gazed into Larry's eyes.
(I gazed back into her eyes, I slowly moved forward and kissed her passionately. My hand moved slowly along her back, it felt good to be holding her again).
Eliza closed her eyes and kissed hm passionatly back. She loved him with all her heart and was afraid to lose him even if a small part of herself was telling her to run away from that man. She wrapped her arms around his neck pulling him closer to her.
(My hand in hers felt wonderful, I didn't want to be anything like the person I was starting to become. I gently pulled away from our kiss and breathed deeply) 'Promise me one thing..' (I said moving my hand inside her pocket and putting the ring back on her finger) '..Don't take this off again, I really don't want to lose you..' (I closed my eyes, trying to get rid of the tears).
"If you don't act like you did earlier honey i won't..." She closed her eyes a moemnt to keep the tears away "I ahve to tell you something...the reason i never wanted to be in a relationship...When i was at the university i dated a guy that started drinking and that was beating me up...I started to got scred of every man..." She sighed deeply and open her eyes "I don't want you to act like you did ever again please promise me..."
(I put my hand on my heart) 'I promise you Eliza, I will never turn into that person.. Besides, any man that hits a women is nothing more then a coward. Once this is all over, I'm going to be paying that bastard a visit with my fist..' (I was dead serious, I hated it when men beat up women, it made me mad, I wanted to find her ex and kick the shit out of him. I kissed her gently and smiled, before getting up and searching the bodies of our attackers).
Eliza smiled to Larry and sited down on a bench. She was tired like hell with the powers she used. She let a long sigh out and closed her eyes. She knew LArry was telling the truth about her ex but she didn't told him what Celestia had told her about him...He was now possessed by a demon and was looking all over for her already...
(As I searched the bodies, I found out they were CIA agents. They had not been possessed either, I felt scared. Like always, the dead had all the answers I was missing. It wasn't that they weren't eager to talk. Quite the contrary. The dead had plenty to say. And once they started, they would never shut up. Their words would keep you awake at night. The bodies, all the evidence of all the murders the cleaners had done, all the answers. It would take days to dig through it).
Eliza kept her eyes closed and slowly drifted to sleep. She was trying to stay awake but it was impossible. She dreamed of Lucifer that was asking her to join him and to be his queen. The dream only lasted a couple of seconds but it felt like hours.
(I saw Eliza asleep, I didn't want to wake her but this was bad. I gently tapped her on the shoulder) 'Eliza, I've got some bad news. They were CIA Agents, I have a feeling Lucifer has put an APB on us..'
Eliza open her eyes slowly and looked at Larry. "Well we have to be carefull this bastard thinks he is freddy too...He came to my dream to talk to me..." She sighed
'Freddy? Who's he?' (I asked, helping her up).
"Freddy is a serial killer that comes only in dreams...From movies...But the way Lucifer talked to me in my dream it felt really real..."
(I felt stupid, I should have realized she was on about Elm Street. I hadn't had a chance to relax in ages) 'Eliza, I wouldn't worry about Lucifer, besides it was only a dream right?' (I said trying to reassure her, I knew she had seen something.. I didn't want to know know what).
Eliza smiled to him so he believes that she was believing it too but inside of her she knew Lucifer was desperate to get her on his side. "Yeah just a dream..."
(I took her hand, squeezing softly. I had a feeling that Lucifer was trying to turn Eliza onto his side, I couldn't let that happen) 'Eliza, lets get to San Fransisco, I have to know if Karl & Jenny are safe..'
Eliza nodded and kissed him passionalty. "Sure my love..."
(A small voice inside my head told me not to go, but like always I thought that voice was lying) 'Eliza, I think we should drive there. I don't trust public service anymore..'
She l;ooked at him and smile "We could always teleport there too..." She winked. Celestia told her that she could be teleported everywhere anytime by the angels they were there to help them.
(I gave her a wink) 'I was actually hoping to get some time away from the angels.. if you know what I mean?' (I blushed, holding her hand gently).
SHe chuckled slightly. "Well there are other angels than CastiFail my love...And they are not all like him. The one that took me here was really nice and caring..."
'Eliza, I would like to spend some alone time with you..' (I laughed, she had to understand what I was on about).
"Oh...ok..." She said laughing. She was trying to help but she figured that they needed to be together alone a little
(I grinned and kissed her hand, my heart working like clockwork. I quickly led Eliza to the car I'd taken and we droved off down the Highway, not expecting the things that lay on the Journey ahead...)
