Disclaimer: You really think I'm that inteligent to come up with characters like this? (mumbles: and they say I'm crazy) I own only Arianna.
Arianna had started to head towards the Eerie building when she realized she hadn't had a shower in over twenty four hours! Only an hour after she received her results Arianna had taken her shower and sent her results to anyone she felt should know. Her mind started to calculate the fastest way to get to the Eerie building, tomorrow she would celebrate with the Mazas, but now she would celebrate with her father's side of the family.
She ran straight past the guard not even stopping when he asked where she was going. the evaluation was in her inside coat pocket she reminded herself as the camera in the elevator moved to see her better, she couldn't help but grin.
The elevator doors opened and at first she though it was her floor until a young man entered the elevator as well. He raised an eyebrow at her; "what are you doing up here sweetheart?"
"Don't call me sweetheart," she warned. Six foot two, one hundred sixty pounds, muscular, red hair, green eyes, handsome to some, she noted to herself.
"Have it your way dumplings," he smirked as the doors opened again.
"Do women actually respond to your lines?" she asked irritated.
He followed her a few feet then wrapped his arm around her waist; "so do you want to go to dinner sometime?"
"Get your hand off of me," she growled.
"What if I don't want to," he said seductivily.
Arianna was fed up. Grabbing the man's hand on her waist she flipped him over onto his back and straight onto the hard wood floor.
"Nice to see you again Officer Maza," David Xantos said as he entered the hall with a folder in hand, looking down at the man on the floor. "Enjoying yourself Alexander?"
"Having the time of my life," Alexander smiled.
"Please forgive my son," David Xantos smiiled looking at the contents of the folder; "he looses his sense when he sees a beautiful woman."
Arianna nodded sharply to hide her slight embarrassment at being called beautiful; "is my father still here?"
David Xantos raised an eyebrow at her; "surprisingly the entire clan is still here, but I believe your father is outside their meeting room. If you go down this hall take the last left then go down that hall and up two flights you should find him."
"Thank you," she told him before heading in the direction of the gargoyles' quarters. She reached the outside of what she believed to be the clan's meeting room but didn't enter instead she walked through the open doors to the parpets where she recognized a large gargoyle.
Goliath had kept the clan in tonight, he was certain Arianna would return if not tonight then tomorrow and he was determinded for the clan to meet her together. He was feeling the strain of being leader, only last year he was almost killed but Brooklyn had saved him. Whaat would of happened if he had died and Arianna came looking for him? How would the clan have reacted to her? He suspected the clan knew what had transpired with himself and Elisa all those years ago but it had never truly been brought up. How would they react to this child? He must be prepared to step down as the leader if need be. It was his job to see all of the options and while he wanted to believe they would accept her, he had to see all the angles.
To his eyes she was pefect just as her mother was and his Angela is. as soon as he learned of her he could not help but swell with fatherly pride. angela had worn down his original gargoyle ways and now only the human ways remained. For Arianna's sake he was grateful for angela's determination in that respect.
"Goliath?"
The large gargoyle turned around to find the earlier object of his thinking. "Did you make it on time Arianna?"
She grinned pulling out a peice of paper and handing it to him; "I think mom would be happy."
Goliath read through the letter and tried not to faulter when he spoke; "so you would be Detective Maza now?"
She nodded; "they even put me on her old shift."
"That will be a help, the clan can communicate with you easily then. Come I think it is time for you to meet them," he told her putting a hand on her shoulder.
(A/N): Yes I know it's short. Yes, I know much didn't happen But there is good news. I'm going on spring break and carting along my over stuffed story mind with it! Probably around the 6th of April I'll update again. ttfn!
