I love my reviewers! Jesse plushies to all! If I had them...which I don't...so it doesn't matter...still love ya'll!
"Christian exorcism? Now, Susie. Don't tell me this is for school." Paul said with a smirk as he sat down on the desk in front of me. "What's Miss Mediator up to now?"
"None of your business." I said, pulling the paper out of his hands. He just smiled and said, "You're a bad liar. And I now that you wouldn't be at the library on a Saturday night."
He got me there.
I never read.
"Fine, if you and your big nose must know, I'm exorcising a demon." He smirked and said, "Are you serious?"
When I didn't answer he said, "Wow." And he sat down, "Ok, well if you are going to perform one, you need to know how to do it."
I smiled at him, "And you would know how to do it?" I asked. I of course belived he did. I mean, being the Son of Satan, all he had to do was say, 'Demons, be gone!' and I 'm sure that they would listen to their master.
He smiled back and said, "No, but I know someone who does."
"Exorcising a demon?" Dr. Slaksi yelled. "You kids are insane!"
"Probably." Paul said, "But do you know how to do it?"
He sighed and said, "Yes, but it isn't safe, and I don't suggest it!" I smiled and said, "You said the same thing about time traveling and I didn't listen."
He nodded and said, "True." He looked at Paul and said, "Hand me that book on the shelf over there." Paul did as he was told and handed it to him.
"This book will tell you all you need to know. Be careful."
"We will." Paul assured him. Dr. Slaksi glared at him, "I wasn't talking to you." Paul gaped at him, and his grandfather laughed. "I was only kidding." He laughed again. "Or was I?"
I had to laugh. This guy was obviously high on pain medication.
"Mr. Slaski? Time to take your meds." Said the nurse as he walked in. I immediatly recognized him as the nurse whom Jesse hates with every fiber of his being. The one that tells Jesse what to do even though Jesse is his boss. The one that Jesse has to restrain himself from killing on a daily basis.
"Hey, Suze." He said when he saw me.
"Hi, Eric."
"Dr. de Silva has been looking for you all day." I laughed when he said that. Jesse told him to call him that. Why? Because it was funny.
And because Jesse loves bossing him around. Almost as much as he loves me, and that's alot.
"Thanks. I was just leaving." I said as I got up. Eric tried to look at the book, but I shoved it between Paul and me so he couldn't see it.
"Well, that was fun." Paul said when we made it into the hallway. "It's not funny, Suze."
"Yes, it is."
"Susannah, where have you-" Jesse stopped and looked at Paul. "Why are you here with that?" Paul narrowed his eyes at Jesse.
Oh, gosh. Not again.
"De Silva."
"Slater." Jesse said, returning Paul's icy glare.
Anyone have a hot tub?
"Paul's helping me." I said, before all hell broke loose.(excuse the pun) Jesse started laughing and said, "No, really. Why is he here?"
"He's helping me." Jesse's laughter dried up and he dragged me to the end of the hallway.
"Susannah!"
"Jesse, Paul knows way more about this then we do. He can really help us. He promised me that he wouldn't try anything."
Jesse looked at me like I had started speaking Spanish to him, "And you believe him?"
"Yes." Because I did. "And if you really love me, you won't try and kill him again and you will go through with this?"
"I can't make that promise."
"Jesse!"
"Querida!"
"Hector!"
"Susannah!"
"Jess, please." I said. We were btoh stubborn, but I had a little trick up my sleeve. "Please?" I begged, making my puppy eyes sadder and sticking my bottom lip out.
"Susannah..." He groaned. He can't resist the face. "Fine. But I want you to know that I am not happy about this."
"Thank you!" I leaned up and kissed him. "I love you, Jesse."
"Sure you do." He said as we made our way back to Paul.
This was going to be a long week.

""You are the mediator. You exorcise the demon and defeat Satan." Aw, poor Paul has to defeat himself.
"This sounds stupid. And scary." I said. Paul smiled and said, "Why does it sound scary?"
"Because! I don't want the devil popping out and poking me with a pitchfork and catching me on fire!" Jesse laughed as I said that, "Querida, he doesn't have a pitchfork."
I looked at Jesse, "How do you know he doesn't?"
"How do you know he does?"
"Guys." Paul said."Suze, chances are he doesn't have a pitchfork...but he probably does have flames."
You would know.
"Thanks Paul, now he can eat me after he roasts me!" I said, uncomfortably.
"And it's a demon, not Satan." He pointed out. Aw, it's not going to be your dad. Sorry, Paul. No family reunion this time. Jesse rolled his eyes and said to Paul, "Does it say how to do it?"
"The exorcism?" Paul asked.
No, Paul. How to do the tango.
"Well..." He said, flipping through the book. "Never do exorcisms alone. Always have a spirtual team with you." He looked up at us and said, "Check." He looked back down at the book and said, "Never tie down the exorcee...like we would."
"You would." Jesse said. Paul glared at Jesse and said, "You know what-"
"What?" Jesse asked.
"Guys!" I said, pulling the book away from Paul and read out loud, "Keep the Evil Spirit silent."
"Aw, Paul can't talk." Paul glared at Jesse again and said, "You are really-"
"Really what-"
"BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP!" I yelled so loud it could, no pun intended, wake the dead. "Shut up, or I'll do more than just silence the Evil Spirit."
They shut up.
I rolled my eyes, "But it still doesn't say how to do it."
"Yes, it does." Jesse said, pointing at the page. "It says we need that book." He took the book from me and read, "Libro de demonios y de otras criaturas del infierno." He looked up at me and said, "Isn't that the book you had the other day?"
I smiled and said, "Told you it looked important." I looked at Paul and said, "It's all in Spanish, though." Paul looked at Jesse and said, "Well, it looks like we have found our mediator."

"Where have you been?" Jaz asked me when I came home that night.
"Out."
"Really?" She asked, sarcastically. "Seriously, where were you?" I sighed and said, "With Jesse." She smiled and said, "You two are so cute! I want a boyfriend. I mean, I am going to look so stupid at Gina's wedding without a date."
Then a little light bulb went off in my head. "Hey, would you be up for a blind date? I know a really hot guy that just broke up with his girlfriend."
She shrugged and said,"Sure. Why not?"
I smiled and said, "Great."
I walked over to my laptop and went to Google. I typed in Sameal and Harlot...
I-Luv-Me: So, feeling any better about the whole exorcism thing?
JessesGirl: Not really. Oh, hey what are you doing tomorrow night?
I-Luv-Me: Now, Suze. You can't cheat on Jesse like that.
JessesGirl: Shut up, Slater. I have a friend who wants a date and since you broke up with Kelly, I thought you two could go out.
I-Luv-Me: She pretty?
JessesGirl: Very.
I-Luv-Me: Although, I doubt any girl is prettier than you...sure, why not? Pick her up at 7?
JessesGirl: It's a date. Oh hey, gotta go. Jesse's on the phone.
I-Luv-Me: See ya later, Susie-Q.
I-Luv-Me signed off.
Jesse really didn't call me, but I wanted to look up Sameal and Harlot. "Twins...twins...someone..." Nothing. "Damn it." I muttered as I took a sip of my drink. "Wait..."
'One of Marilon's methods of killing is to suck the life out of the chosen one. After this is complete on the first full moon of th first month of the year 2007, the transfering of her powes will be complete.'
