A/N : So this is the second chapter I update today. I hope you'll like it (really do, writer crossing fingers). It's shorter, but it's only about the Seekers, so...

I really hope you'll like the directio I give to this story. Really...

Anyway, no answer to reviews here, as I updated the two chapters together. The next one will be longer, and will take time for me to write so be patient guys. I promise I woon't hold this story hostage, I'll finish it...

Thanks for droping a line for me...


"Your sermon today was really good Father Harris!" said enthusiastically an old woman.

"Thank you Mrs Levine. It was nice seeing you today. How are the kids?" asked the man.

"Oh, they're pretty…"

"Enough of the bullshit. Brother Harris can I talk to you for a second." The voice belonged to a tall woman in her mid thirties, hair as dark as the night, shoulder length cut. She had most cold grey eyes that you ever saw. Everything in her screamed power. She seemed almost lifeless and yet so powerful, too powerful. She looked like those stone carved giants that could smash you before you have the time to say 'oops'.

Mrs Levine was about to answer, but when she faced the woman that was behind her, she shrugged and went away.

"I told you a thousand times not to do that! You are here in my territory. In my Church."

"Whatever Harris. Not like you're a believer, right?"

"It's Brother Harris to you. Don't forget who you are talking too."

"To a low class elder," muttered the woman.

Harris became red. "You…"

"Me…Brother Harris." She looked at him in the eye and rattled on "I should be at your place in the Council. But no. They said I was too young. And you shouldn't forget too who I'm working for."

"Oh, I know well enough who you're working for."

He lead her to his office in the back of the Church.


"Do they really believe it?" inquired the woman with curiosity.

"What?"

"What you say, and what this cock and bull story book say," she nodded at the Bible. "All those fairy tales, that God will help them and all. They don't even have a proof. Our kind have been living on Earth for thousand years since the beginning and yet we've never seen Him."

"That's why it's called Faith!" spat Harris. The man was grey eyed too, but there were more warmth in his eyes. He had sandy hair, and at the moment wore the usual priest attire. He looked like a dreamer who was born in the wrong place, in the wrong kind. There was no place for dreamers in his kind. He was harsh, just like any of them, but not the toughest. He was known for his wisdom. That was why they choose him instead of Hyean (It's an easy anagram, find it!).

"But you know that it didn't happen that way, right? I mean, we never needed snakes to know what we wanted. The Familiars did. And if it weren't for them, we would already have what we were looking for. Stupid cultists!"

"What are you doing here?" asked Harris.

"Do you realize that both of them don't really know what they are fighting for?" she paused and switched some buttons under his desk. Three tv-screens appeared in the wall in front of her. "Ah, I see you're still watching your little creation."

They were both looking at Adam who at the moment was walking in the streets of TC with Max.

"He's so beautiful. You know I've seen the tapes you send us, it's wonderful. He's wonderful. So young and already so strong. He doesn't even understand what powers are hidden inside him."

"What do you want Hyean?"

"You know, there are rumors about you. About your great grand son. They say that before he died, if he died, because I still didn't saw his body, they say that during torture he talked about a nice fairy tale that his father had told him. They say that he thought the Familiars didn't need the snake blood anymore, we don't know if he was talking about the transgenics or something else but…I have my own theory. I think that you told the son you had with that Familiar bitch our secret. And that he told it too to his sons etc…I think that's why Sandeman created 452."

"You're insulting me. How dare you!" Harris barked. "Get out of my sight!"

"Relax old man. I was just passing by. I will be leading the team tomorrow. And at 0800, he will be ours."

She opened the Bible and read :

"And the LORD God said, "The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever." So the LORD God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life." (Genesis 3. 22-24)

"They don't know what's at stakes in this war. I want to win Harris. And I'll make us win!" with that she stormed out of his office. "You better be in my team, and not in the other," she shouted.
