Bayonetta tossed Owen across the room and slammed the door shut, as Goliath slipped in with her. With an arched eyebrow, he looked at the woman and sighed as he watched her walk over to Owen till she had her gun heeled shoes pointed at this the man's stomach. " Might I ask why you have guns on your footwear?"

Glancing over at Goliath Bayonetta scoffed. "What? I'd embed a chainsaw to my arm if I could." Looking back to Owen she smiled broadly at him. "Now, how do we get to your little fairy tale island elf?"

"I can't just tell you. Oberon forbids me from giving out such information so blatantly." Owen stared calmly up at Bayonetta as her high heel gun hovered precariously close to his navel. "Perhaps you could try and think of something other than bluntly asking me it?"

Bayonetta then kicked Owen so hard in the chin that he flew up into the ceiling and came crashing back down, his glasses thrown off, and a giant bruise forming on his chin. Goliath let out a gasp at the sudden action, and then quickly grabbed her and dragged her away from Owen. "Is this how you interrogate for information normally?!"

Bayonetta smirked and adjusted her glasses as she looked into Goliath's eyes. "Oh please, the little elf can take it. Its not as though I shoved iron into his spine or anything." She then flicked Goliath's nose and walked back towards Owen who was now standing up and adjusting his tie. "Besides, I'm wicked cop remember. Now, I think its your turn."

"And I thought Goliath's clan was volatile about such things." Glaring at Bayonetta he let out a huff and held his hands behind his back. "If that is the only thing you are going to be doing I doubt that we are going to get anywhere."

Goliath stepped forward with a hand held out to Owen. "I am aware the circumstances are rather peculiar, but surely there must be someway for you to help us... before anymore physical harm is done to anyone here. You say it can't be done blatantly, is there a way to work out a loophole?"

Owen was quiet for a moment, but a devious grin came over his face. "Actually. You know, I haven't taught Alex to traverse the realms quite yet. Perhaps I should give him a lesson. And if you two happen to be nearby to hear it, then oh well."

He walked past the two, before flipping Bayonetta off in a rather nonchalant manner, leading to her bursting out laughing. As the three exited, Xanatos' grimaced as he saw Owen's rather blatant injury. "Did you really have to bruise him so badly?"

"All part of the negotiations. Good cop, bad cop, that sort of thing." Bayonetta looked over at Goliath and winked. "Just playing our part. I could have just asked him, but where is the fun in that?"

Goliath groaned and rolled his eyes as he followed Owen. Passing Xanatos, he glared at him disgustedly, but said nothing as he and Bayonetta walked down the hall. After picking up Alex, the three entered into a nicely sized bathroom and entered into a bathtub much to Goliath's confusion. As Owen began to fill the tub with water, Goliath tapped his shoulder. " And how does standing in here get us to Avalon?"

"Aw yes, I forgot, we needed some kind of boat." Owen turned the water off and gave Goliath Alex, who looked curiously about. "I'll be a moment." Owen bowed and disappeared from the bathroom.

"Ah, yes... hello Alex. This is the first time we've had a time to speak properly..." Goliath smiled shyly at the child who smiled back and gurgled.

"So sweet." Bayonetta smiled smuggly at Goliath, who blushed and held Alex close to his chest. "Don't mind me. I'm just enjoying the fluff."

"The... what?" Goliath sighed and shook his head. "Never mind. Who are you though? A sorceress of some sort clearly." As Goliath began to rock Alex about in his arms he groaned. "Another mercenary for higher as well..."

"Pretty much, yes. If you want to get more then that, well, let's just say I don't give someone everything on our first date." Bayonetta said as she ran a finger across one of his wings. She then leaned in towards his ear and whispered. "Unless you really wow me..."

"I am already with someone!" Goliath quickly retorted. As he looked back at Bayonetta he saw her still with the smug look on her face. "You... were teasing... yes..." Goliath blushed again and found himself glowering down at the his water soaked feet.

"I didn't see any female gargoyles, except the one that looks a lot like you. Sister? Daughter? By the way, you with the old guy or something? Or the khaki colored small one, he seems the type that'd be into a finely muscled specimen? Or are you... with her?" Bayonetta looked down contemplatively at Alex, then back to Goliath. "Not judging, just curious."

"No, I am with the human woman you... attacked when we first met tonight."

"Crazy night, huh?" Bayonetta let out a chuckle and crossed her arms. "So how do you two-"

"We are getting off the subject." Goliath said bluntly. "Where is Owen? What is he getting?"

"I think he's been eavesdropping for a while." Bayonetta looked over to the door, that upon her saying this opened up.

"I'm surprised you noticed." Owen said as he brought over a rather large wooden washbasin that just barely fit into the tub.

"He conjured up the basin as soon as he left. Nosy little elf." Bayonetta looked defiantly at Owen who ushered the three out of the tub. "Was it just to see if I'd open up and spill my whole life to the purple lizard?"

Goliath groaned and handed Alex back over to Owen and shook his head. "I'm told I'm lavender, and I thought you could only use magic in defense of Alex or when teaching him."

"I conjured this basin because without it I couldn't teach him to go to Avalon. Now get in if you want to sit in on this lesson." As the four all got back in, Owen smiled down at Alex as he shapeshifted into Puck. "Now, let's see... first thing you need is a body of water. Any that will fit a boat will do."

"This is a basin." Goliath corrected as he looked around it. "And I doubt this would float in a large body of water with all of us in it."

"Well, details, details. All that matters to Avalon is that you are in water and in a wooden container." Puck tapped his chin with a finger as he thought for a moment. "Actually, I think the bath would work too if I turned it into wood, or a boat I suppose... Except Xanatos might be a bit mad if I rip out a bath tub. Already spending a lot of money on the haughty, miserable, repulsive, witch." Puck smirked at Bayonetta and shrugged. "No offense."

Nodding her head, Bayonetta held up a gun and cocked it. "That's nice. Get a move on."

"Of course, of course. As patient as ever I see." Puck looked away from the witch and rolled his eyes. "Perhaps Jeanne would have been a better pick, huh Alex?" Clearing his throat, as Goliath blocked Bayonetta's arm from bashing Puck in the head, Puck began his incantation after a little bit of instruction to Alex. "Vocate venti fortunate ex rege Oberonis et hic navis flugem regate ad orae Avalonis." and as he said this the group became surrounded by mist.
