Neways enough rambling here is more story!
Enjoy!!
The shop assistant was now looking back and forth over at us and then to the kid in the basket.
"Well? Do you now who or where his parents are then?" he said, also looking a bit weirded out at the unusual nature of our appearance. He muttered something else under his breath, but I only caught "Must be freaks day out…"
Two obviously heard him because he answered the muffled comment.
"Well, if we look weird, then you should see our new lady friend, she has wings, and the guy we were working with this morning can change into anyone he wants…" Smirking, he continued, "Or maybe you should just look in the mirror… you look like you were in an industrial accident and they couldn't remove all of the metal…" he finished.
The shop assistant was obviously cut at that last remark because he stalked off with a sour face muttering, "Yep, insane… that would explain the make up and weird coats…"
We just smirked at each other, and as Two picked up the sleeping Nat out of the basket I said, "Well I think we successfully got under his skin…that was a good one." With a small laugh.
"Yeah, ha, it's a wonder he doesn't leak when he has a drink, with the amount of holes in his face…" We both grinned at that comment, but the smile was wiped off of my face when I realized that the child was now awake and had just jumped out of Two's arms and onto my back, and then proceeded to tug on my dreadlocks.
As we walked around the shop looking for Pixel, I heard a familiar voice and looked over to see that Two had already found them.
"How long ago was that?" Pixel was asking,
"I'm not really sure, I'm still learning how to look after a kid, someone else is usually with me when I come in here." Said the hippy looking frantic.
"Don't worry about the kid chum, we've got him," Two said as we both reached their location.
"Where's Nat?" Hummer demanded.
"He's on my back," I said, "and I'll be very grateful if you stop him from pulling on my dreadlocks." I turned around to reveal the infant still pulling on my hair.
"Nathaniel get down here right now!" Hummer half shouts at Nat, "What are you doing up there?"
"I picked him up cause one of the clerks was complaining because he was asleep in a bin of bikinis."
"You tired buddy?" Hummer asked as he held the Nat close, still looking slightly shifty.
"Mero wants you back Pix, he found something that might help you," I tell her as I Try and straighten me hair.
"What?"
I look at my brother and he looks back at me, then we both look at Hummer and Nat. "You'll see when we get back." Two said as he took her hand and led her out of the store. She waved goodbye to Hummer and Nat before losing sight of them.
We walked back to the SUV and she gets into the backseat, leaning through the middle of the front seats, she tilted her head to look at Two. "Well what's this thing that's going to help me find Vorateu?"
"The result of Mero's business this morning," I say as I start the car and drove off.
I see her roll her eyes when I look at her through the rear view mirror and she says, "Could I have a little more information please?"
"One of his associates, bounty hunter we should say, brought in a vampire - one of Vorateu's and collected the bounty. It supposedly knows where he's going to be tonight." Two tells her.
"So I question the vamp?"
"Since you're working on getting Vorateu, he'd decided that you're going to be the one doing the questioning." I continue remembering the pen light.
"I think I can get some results."
"You can use this," I tale the light out of my pocket and hand it back to her.
"It's not really your color," she commented as she accepted it from me and clicks it on.
"It's one of Mero's toys that he wrote."
"It's warm."
"To you, but to a vampire it would burn. That's sunlight that's coming out of there." Two said as I drove into a parking garage.
"I think I like this," she put it into her jeans pocket as we went up a level and I found my parking spot. We all got out and walked over to the service staircase door and instead of walking up the stairs; I put my key in the lock and open the door into the Chateaux.
