The Train
Lauren stood watching Rainer. The doctor in her did all she could holding in her laughter. "What the hell is wrong with him? She asked herself.
Rainer had stood screaming for some time until he collapsed on the bed, screaming even louder. He had his hands over his eyes and when he removed them to look at Lauren he started all over again.
"I'd offer you a Aspirin but unfortunately I don't have any on me", She said mockingly.
"You think this is funny? Rainer mumbled.
"Well...
"You will pay for this. As soon as I am better", Rainer said.
"Pay for what? We were talking and all of a sudden you started screaming like the little bitch you are", Lauren said.
"Don't you dare call me names. I have more power than your scientist mind could even imagine", Rainer said.
"Actually I'm growing bored with you. You're acting like a little boy who didn't get what he wanted from mommy", Lauren said.
"Fine when Bo gets here, you can leave", Rainer said.
"I will not leave without Bo", Lauren said.
"When Bo sees me, she will see a brighter future with me than you could have ever given her", Rainer said.
"Sounds like you plan on choosing for Bo. She won't like that", Lauren laughed.
Bo and Abbigail.
"How much longer until we arrive? Bo asked.
"Sorry it seems like I am stalling but we have to be sure we are not being followed. Rainer has many people he could use to get to you", Abbigail said.
"How do you know this? Bo asked.
"Those bastards Hugin and Munin, had many friends and accomplices", she said.
"If Lauren was taken by smoke why can't I go the same way? Bo asked.
"That smoke was meant for you. I don't have the power to make more, only he can do that", Abbigail said.
"Well we need to hurry. I know you're trying to be cautious and I appreciate that. But I have to find Lauren", Bo said.
"Alive I hope", Bo whispered to herself.
The Train
"I don't understand this", Rainer said.
"What? Lauren asked.
"I can see future events so I should have seen you coming but you snuck up on me", Rainer said.
Lauren stood looking at him for a while. He really was just a boy with powers beyond his years. The thought of him coming for Bo scared Lauren but she wouldn't let him or anyone take Bo against her will. She really was getting bored of the non-stop trip that seemed to be going nowhere. Bo would come for her soon, she was sure of that.
"Well you didn't get Bo. So for now I will have to do", Lauren laughed. Knowing it was getting to him.
"Bo will be mine. We will reign together", Rainer said.
When Lauren stepped towards him, he started screaming again. He had a problem now. How would he deal with the doctor when the sight of her even with sunglasses was painful to adjust to?
Bo and Abbigail
"Bo we are getting close. From what I heard about him, he has the power to see the future. So whatever your plans are you need to be ready for any and everything", Abbigail said.
"Shit", Bo said.
"Do you have a plan? Abbigail asked.
"Yeah. Get Lauren and get the hell home", Bo said.
"Good plan but you need to be quick. I don't know you that well but a guy that can see the future will be hell to deal with".
Bo thought about that. How do you defeat someone that knows your moves before you even make a move? Lumps formed in her throat at the thought of Lauren being with him.
"We're here", Abbigail announced pointing to train tracks.
"This is it? This place looks like it hasn't been used in years", Bo said.
"Normally you would need a ticket but given who you are. You can just stand on the tracks. The train will come, just stand there and you will be able to board", Abbigail said.
"Uhhh won't that hurt? Bo asked.
"No. I've seen it done. It's like you disappear into the train", Abbigail said.
"There has to be another way", Bo laughed.
"Well if there is we don't have time to find anyone that knows", Abbigail said.
"You're right. I can do this. Come on succubus, woman up", Bo said.
The Train.
Rainer and Lauren continued to go back and forth about what was best for Bo. Lauren was sure Bo would come for her and this guy would be dead. Lauren's doubts about how to kill someone who could see the future were becoming more and more frequent.
"Hungry doctor? Rainer asked.
"Tsk I will never eat or drink anything you offer me", Lauren said coldly.
Rainer had decided to turn his back on the doctor since it hurt to look at her. He would see any attempts at attacks she would try to make. He knew the succubus was coming soon and this doctor would be left alone on this train like he had been for centuries.
Lauren was starting to wonder what was taking Bo so long to get there. She knew the succubus would stop at nothing to get her back.
"You're awfully quiet, plotting my death? Lauren asked.
"No I have finally grown tired of you human. I didn't even send for you, I sent for the succubus", Rainer said.
"A human huh? A human that it hurts for you to look at? Lauren laughed.
"I have just about had enough of you", Rainer snapped his head back towards Lauren and then back again.
"Sunglasses no longer working huh? Lauren laughed again.
"The thought that a human could infiltrate my portal is absurd" Rainer said.
"You weren't getting Bo", Lauren said assuredly slow.
"I get it human. You love the succubus. But that love would last for about the length of time it would take for me and Bo to sleep together. Let me break it down for your doctor mind. Her ass is mine", Rainer said.
Lauren laughed. "If you really think it's all about sex with Bo, you have already lost her. Not that you will ever get her love though. That is mine".
Bo and Abbigail
Abbigail had lead Bo where she needed to be the the succubus asked her to be left alone for a bit. Bo thought about Lauren. How did they get to this? One minute she was in the process of kicking that teen's ass for putting his hands on her beloved Doctor. Then Lauren asked for a break. Bo prayed it was just a break but her impatient mind couldn't wait, so she called. When Lauren didn't answer her heart dropped. Had she fled the Fae? Fled Bo? Why? What red flags did Bo miss? Was her gf so unhappy she just up and left for good. No goodbyes. No see you later. Just gone? A sinking feeling overcame Bo. Was she the one that left them? Her escapades on cases Dyson happily dropped in her lap turned her into a supershero. Had she finally chose the Fae over Lauren? No. No I could never choose anything or anyone over Lauren she said in her head.
"It's time", Abbigail said softly as she approached Bo.
Taking deep breaths Bo stepped towards the tracks. She didn't want to step on the tracks, it scared her a bit, but for Lauren she'd try.
The train sped towards them. It looked like a runaway train. Bo had never seen anything travel at that speed. She took more deep breaths and said "Here I come Lauren".
The train finally reached her when she closed her eyes, she was aboard. "Wow", she thought quietly to herself.
She slowly crept from car to car. She couldn't smell Lauren's scent at all. But her gut told her the doctor was indeed on board. "Keep calm and got get your girl", she thought to herself.
After about 10 cars, she heard voices. Lauren was in a heated conversation with someone. Bo beamed. She didn't sound at all like she was backing down or afraid of whomever she was talking to.
"Should I bust through the door? Well I will have to do something I can't just knock. She slowly opened the door and heard "Isabeau".
The Dal
"Aife what you done? Trick snapped as the succubus and Vex strolled in.
"I did what you were always too cowardly to do, I took down the Morrigan", Aife snapped back at him.
Vex cleared his throat. "Ummm...".
"Don't worry Mesmer you will get everything we agreed upon", Aife laughed.
"I better love", Vex replied.
"Love? Wait you two didn't? Trick asked.
Vex laughed. "No sir I wouldn't go near the energizer succubunny's mum. Not like that".
"Whew", Trick said grabbing his chest. "That's a relief. I don't know what Bo will be like when she returns but pissing her off even more than she was when she left even scares me".
"Now about Evony...
"What about her? She's probably looking for some carrots right about now", Vex laughed.
"You shouldn't have done that. A powerless Evony is even more dangerous", Trick said.
"You're the only one scared of her daddy. If you're that frightened send out your number one dog to snff her out", Aife laughed.
"Excuse me?
"Calm down wolf boy, the moon isn't even out yet", Aife laughed.
"Aife, please", Trick pleaded.
Trick didn't know what to think. One angry succubus was enough but two was down right insane. Even the Blood King couldn't write a script like this. He worried for all the Fae should Bo return without Lauren. But he knew his granddaughter was very powerful. She wouldn't return brokenhearted and empty handed.
The Train
"Lauren! Bo screamed running to her but then stopped suddenly. Lauren?
"It's ok Bo. It's me", Lauren said softly.
"Finally the succubus has come", Rainer said.
Bo finally grabbed Lauren and squeezed her like she would disappear again.
"Lauren I have been so worried about you...are you ok? Bo asked noticing something was different about her favorite scientist.
"Bo you needn't worry about the human. I am whom you really came for", Rainer said.
"And...who the hell are you? Bo asked. You look like a washed up rock star hiding behind those sunglasses".
"Ask him to take them off", Lauren laughed.
"What? Bo asked.
"Ask him to take them off", Lauren said again.
"Fine. Take them off", Bo said.
"I cannot. You see Bo...
"That's just it Bo, he can't see much with them off", Lauren laughed again. Although as a doctor any ailment would be alarming but he wasn't really sick. Just a ass.
"Would you like me to leave so you can talk to Bo? Lauren asked.
"You...you'd do that? Rainer asked.
"Hell no. But it's funny to see you get your hopes up". Lauren said.
"Lauren... Lauren what's going on?
"I have some kind of power over him, if he takes his glasses off, he will scream from the pain of looking at me", Lauren said.
"What? You have what? Bo asked with her eyes widening.
"It's nothing! Rainer snapped.
"Enough bullshit. Who are you and what do you want? Bo asked.
"You...
"Shut up human, I can talk for myself", Rainer said.
Bo ran towards him pinning him against the wall.
"Call her that again! Bo snapped.
"Bo you need me. It will be for the good of the Fae if we are aligned", Rainer said.
"Bo you need me. Wah wah wah wah. Buddy you sound like the teacher from Charlie Brown. Was any of that English? And in case you hadn't heard, I'm the unaligned succubus", Bo said.
"No..No you're not", Rainer said.
"What? What do you mean I'm not? Bo asked pushing him further against the wall.
"You are Dark Fae Bo", He said.
"Bullshit! Bo snapped loudly.
"You signed a contract with me Bo. It's in a drawer in my desk", He said.
"Where is your desk? Lauren asked.
"You can't open it human", Rainer said.
Bo punched him in his faemily jewels.
"Bo! He screamed
"I warned you not to call her that", Bo said.
"Where is your desk? Lauren asked again.
Rainer said nothing but Bo had lost what remained of her patience.
"Fine. We will find it", Bo said pinning Rainer to the wall so that he stuck like Aife showed her how to do.
"Well damn, that does work. Thanks mom", Bo smiled.
"Careful Bo, he can see the future", Lauren warned.
"Well if he didn't see us coming the future must be really far off", Bo laughed. "Now let's find his desk".
