Reiley: Well since my dear creator is out looking for Dusty…hold on a second…*walks to a closet and opens it* you can come out now.

Dusty: Thanks

Reiley: And now for the sake of more invisible, cybernetic ice cream…here's the chapter!!

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

We walked up to Capricorn's blood red church. The doors, already open, held an eerie feeling going through. Sitting there in the chair, in the middle of the front of the church, was Capricorn himself.

"Well, well, well dove, welcome back." Capricorn sneered.

"Why do they keep calling you dove, Rei?" I heard Meggie ask

"Later." I muttered, just loud enough for her to hear. Glancing back I noticed her nod that she heard me.

Returning back to glaring at Capricorn I saw Mo being dragged out. Seeing him, I managed to struggle out of my captors hold and run to him. Nearly tackling him, I managed to choke out, "You're okay!"

"Reiley? Meggie? What are you two doing here?"

"You didn't have the book Mo. I did." Capricorn decided to intervene here, "I noticed that your father didn't have the book. I was wondering who did, and now my dear dove has brought it to me."

Once again Dusty had to grab me by the waist to stop me from most probably getting killed by Capricorn.

"So, dear Dov…."

"DON'T CALL ME THAT GOD DAMNED NAME!!!!" Hmmm…this should be an interesting reaction…I thought. And funny enough…it was. I got a funny look from Dusty, an agitated one from Aunt Elinore (who surprisingly was quite), a surprised one from Mo, and two amused ones from Basta and Capricorn.

"As I was saying, before you interrupted me, dove." Enter a twitching evil eye glare, "Where is the book."

I just sat there, arms crossed, mouth shut, and eyes glaring dangerously.

"Where is the book?"

Once again, sitting there, arms crossed, mouth shut, and eyes glaring dangerously. Only this time, Capricorn got up walked towards me "menacingly" (notice the quotes) and grabbed my chin forcing me to look at him.

"I'll ask you one more time dove, where is my book?" With that he suddenly pulled away his hand had small flames on it. He glanced towards Dusty, who had a proud look on his face.

"Piss off, asshole! If you can't take the damn heat get out of the god damned kitchen." I started to end it but added, "What do I get for giving you dumbasses the book?"

Once again with the looks! What is it with these people and giving me looks! I mean jezz... just because I don't cuss normally, doesn't mean I can't.

"You get to go free."

"Oh, no, no, no…here's how it's gonna go. Mo, Aunt Elinore and Meggie go free."

"Very well." He said with a smirk. I slowly handed over the book, "Let them go."

I started to walk out only to be grabbed Basta, "Let me go you son of a bitch!!!"

Behind me I heard Dustfinger's "hey!" I kicked Basta's knee and spun on my heel, punching him in the nose. Hearing the satisfying crunch as it broke under my fist I spun to face the next person.

"You said those three go free, Dove. You said nothing of yourself and Dustfinger. However, for breaking Basta's nose, all of you will stay." I heard Capricorn's harsh, grating laugh as he threw the last book of my beloved Inkheart onto a hearth.

I had made the biggest mistake of my life, and the look on Dusty's, Mo's, and Aunt Elinore's face told me that much.
