I wish I don't black cat but I don't, sorry. Now, read on! *^_^*
Eathes reached up…
…and smacked Creed's hand away. "I know when I'm out of my league, Creed. I'd be a fool to fight you." He looked from Echidna to Creed and back again. "So either I fight you and lose, or come willingly, eh?" Eathes scratched his head and frowned. "What the hell, I have nothing to lose. Monkeys have pride, too."
Creed looked at Eathes with a smile that would cause him to shake. "Well, we have our work cut out for us, don't we? And it starts now."
"Pardon the early hour, Number XIII. The Elder wishes to see you." The man in black took Train away and out of Creed's sight. It was time, the clock was ticking, and they needed their plan to work.
Echidna sat on the floor, wondering. Creed, this better work, otherwise- She stole a glance at her husband. I swear I'll never forgive you.
Eathes looked at Creed's back, wondering how he could stay calm at a time like this. It's true that the days after Eathes left the Apostles of the Stars he had gone hungry, and was about to die and when Echidna pulled him in her new portal. Maybe I shouldn't have done this, I'm going to die, But …Eathes stole a look at Creed. He seems more human now, like he has a conscience or something.
Creed stared at Minaksuki's door carefully. He knew he could not be rash, for his younger self watching. No, he had to be very, very careful. For the next ten days, they had to wait patiently, silently, in the shadows.
