A multitude of emotions passed threw Erin's eyes, most prominent anger, betrayal and down right confusion, but his face remained indifferent. Couldn't he ever give a fucking straight awnser? His grip on the file on his hand tightened, and he shove it roughly into Arish's hands. The half demon then shoved past the confusing man he once thought was his lover. What the hell was going on?! The brunette kept walking until he was sure that he was out of the dark angel's sights, and went into the kitchen and began searching frantically for something that he knew would help him forget. Alcohol.

 

Vodka, perfect, strong alcohol content, and it burned going down; just the way he liked it. He took a normal glass used for water, like he gave two fucks right now about what glass he used right now, and poored himself a glass. He sat down at the table and took a large swig of his drink, wincing slightly at the burning. He was so done with all this bull shit that it wasn't even funny. He took a second large sip, and hardly notice the tears starting to roll down his tan cheeks.

[Teesie]

Arish closed his eyes at the shove that the other had given him, the documents barely gripped in his hands. After moments of not trying to feel saddened, the dark haired male opened his eyes to look after the brunette that had just turned the corner of the corridor. He didn't wish for the other to get hurt, all Arish wanted was to protect him.

 

Sighing softly the coal eyes glanced down at the files that was pushed inside of a cream colored folder. What could the other have placed inside of it. Looking down Arish walked the same path that the other had taken, but rounding the corner he could see the other had went into the kitchen. Smiling softly to the brunette, the half angel disappeared back into the room that the two had slept in.

 

I guess I should read whatever is in this. It seems that Erin was on his way to give it to me anyways, to let me see it before I told him my feelings. I really don't wish to look at it though, it all bullshit. The only reason I wanted to tell him is because I wanted him to stay cautious around me. Dammit!

 

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Soon one glass became two, and two became three and Jackal B. fell into old habits again. He burried his face into his arms and let out a sob, emotions hitting him like a tidal wave. Was he just so unlikable, was he so, just so...fuck it. He was a disgusting, half-breed, whore, unloveable, drunk conman and that's all he'll ever be. He was a fool to believe Arish fucking loved him, Erin was just a toy. Someone's emotions to rip to shreds. He didn't deserve love, he grew up alone and would die alone. That's what the man he thought was his father once told him so it must be true, right?

 

The drunken man sobbed, shivering. Nothing made sense anymore, nothing made sense! He was so confused, confused and alone. Always alone, everyone leaves one way or another. Fate just loves to fuck him over, to shove something he can't have in his face constantly. Fuck fate, fuck destiny, fuck everything. This was just the final straw.

[Teesie]

Setting the documents aside small tears ran from Arish eyes. During that time of trouble, all his life...it was all planned out like he was a fucking guinea pig. His father knew all of this, yet he didn't tell him nor his mother a damn thing. While the dark haired man and his mother cried, Arik only stood back to listen to the two mourn. The strong face always set in an indifferent mask, the half angel had now recognized it as guilt. That was all bullshit, it was all his father's fault. Every fucking bad project in his life was due to his father.

 

Standing from the bed Arish had to find the only person who loved him, besides his mother. Stumbling to the kitchen the ex hunter placed his hands into the doorway and smiled softly to his ex lover...of course it was ex, like once before. "I'm sorry...Erin....forgive me." Walking into the kitchen to sit in the seat that was placed across from Jackal B.

 

The male was drunk for sure, maybe was the wrong time to talk to the other. There was no way that the other would actually listen to him in his drunken state. Chuckling at the brunette's flushed face, the angelic man folded his arms across his chest. "As if you'll listen to me now. Your drunk, you should get some rest." He informed the smaller man lightly.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Erin snarled at the other. "F-fuck you," He shouted, words slightly slurred, "I love you, and you're just a bastard! Stop messing with me! Just stop!" The half-demon sobbed and threw the glass he was drinking out of at the other, though, since he was drunk his aim was way off, and it ended up smashing against the wall.

 

"Why...does everyone leave?...first Emily...then you...then Coyote...and then Alex. Now you came back to break me more than you all ready have. Is this funny to ya...cause I'm not laughin'...it's n-not fuckin' f-funny," The brunette sobbed out, trembling as tears poored down his face, "Cause...cause I don't wanna be here any more...I don't wanna be anywhere any more...". Slightly glazed green eyes met coal, and the half-demon couldn't bring himself to believe a single word Arish said while in his drunken haze. He wasn't really sorry, he just wanted to hurt Jackal B. again.

[Teesie]

Arish stares to the glass that was broken beside his head. The glass was broken and shattered everywhere. The half angel felt bad that he had hurt Erin enough so that the boy would try to hurt him, and it was making the angel's heart shatter. Suddenly the word that the other was speaking caught his attention.

 

"F-fuck you," ... "I love you, and you're just a bastard! Stop messing with me! Just stop!"[/Quote]

 

The half angel only frowned and sighed heavily before looking into the tear filled green eyes. "I am truly sorry. Didn't I tell you not to believe a word I said-at that moment." The ex Elite Hunter explained, his breathing evening out. "You know I love you so don't let anything mean I say falter you?" walking to also sit at the table.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

The half-demon man growled at he other as he sat down. He needed to stop, stop messing with his emotions, stop confusing him, just stop! Erin moved to get up, but immediately had to sit back down, because the world started spinning around and around and around, making him feel sick.

 

"You know I love you so don't let anything mean I say falter you?"

 

"Bullshit," Jackal B. said weakly, "Says...says the guy who said 'I love you with all my heart and nothing can ever break us apart.' before he fucking..." He sobbed lightly before continuing "...ra-raped me because of something I couldn't control, something I had not knowledge of until two days before. So...so tell m-me why I should believe anything y-your hypo...hypocritical ass sa-says...". Even drunk that night was burned into the cat-eyed man's mind, no, it was enhanced and brought forward drunk. He buried his face in his arms again, he couldn't stand looking into those coal eyes again. It hurt him, it hurt his heart, and it hurt his head.

[Teesie]

The dark haired male looked away from the smaller male and sighed heavily while shaking his head. It always came to that....that stupid fucking night when he had raped Erin when teenagers. Didn't the other get that he was a foolish teen back then? That he regretted everything he had ever done to the one in front of him? Arish was tired of being the lap dog for everyone. He was ready to take control, and take control now.

 

"I'm fucking sorry ok. I can't take back what I've done to you, but I can honestly say that I regret it. I love you...alot. I know that what I've said lately had confused you but it's not my fault. You don't know what it takes to be in the Elite Hunter group. That document you read...there's more to it. Besides the fact that my whole life has been a fucking race of when I will come to hate demons...they planted more hatred into me. With a mantra of saying the same brainwashing things over and over with a mind chip.....it could take over. Every time I feel attracted or love someone it triggers. I need for you to help me....not run away from me." The half angel was looking to him with pleading coal eyes. He needed the other now more than ever.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

"I'm fucking sorry ok. I can't take back what I've done to you, but I can honestly say that I regret it. I love you...alot. I know that what I've said lately had confused you but it's not my fault. You don't know what it takes to be in the Elite Hunter group. That document you read...there's more to it.

With a mantra of saying the same brainwashing things over and over with a mind chip.....it could take over. Every time I feel attracted or love someone it triggers. I need for you to help me....not run away from me."

 

Erin slowly raised his head and looked up at the other, cat-like eyes wide, and seemed a little more sober. He was still drunk, but the other's words made him see a little clearer. "That...that's fucked up..." The brunette whispered. He bit his lip, now he felt rather selfish for not understanding, selfish and stupid. Arish did love him, but Jackal B.'s been such an emotional mess lately he let that cloud his judgement, big time. He didn't get how Arish's father could allow his only son, no, only living child go threw with something like that. Then again Erin's own father wasn't exactly father of the year material ether, he met him once, a totally irresponsible asshole.

 

"I...I'm sorry...it's just, a lot had been going on lately, and I've been under a lot of stress, even before you showed up. I knew something would make me break down...but I've been holdin' it off. My best friend, Alex, was murdered about a month ago...I saw him bein' put six feet under two weeks ago. He was the only one I've told my name to since Coyote died...the only one I trusted wholly with my life since you. I was puttin' all my energy into catchin' who killed him...and then I find out about all this Realm Officials bullshit, and the Hunters, and you and...I feel overloaded. My emotion are haywire, and outta whack...but I was really good at hiddin' it until now...," The green eyed man looked into his lover's eyes, "I'm sorry I didn't trust ya...I know you love me...I've just had it beat into me since I was little no one would love me, and anyone who did would eventually leave. I used ta not believe it but...". It kind of proved itself, to the half-demon at least. People leave or die, so it's better to keep someone at arms length, so they didn't hurt him. He leaned across the table and placed a clumsy kiss onto the dark haired man's lips, though missing a little and placing a kiss on the corner of Arish's lips instead. He loved the angel a lot, and hoped that he could help him with this...thing, he's probably be able to help better once he was sober though.

[Teesie]

Listening to his lover's statement made him smiled slightly and nodded. "I know what your going through and I apologize for everything. You stay here...no go to a room to sober up. I need some air so I'll take a walk ok? I shouldn't particularly be around you at the moment. My heart is screaming that I love you, but my mind is just saying you a worthless demonic being that needs to be killed. If you know me well...I'm not very good under pressure. Plus, I kinda have this way of following what I think instead of my heart so....yeah." Smiling lightly to the other before standing once again.

 

"Keep it in that thick head of yours that I fucking love you ok? No matter what I do. Ok?"

[Guest cheshireArtist]

"Keep it in that thick head of yours that I fucking love you ok? No matter what I do. Ok?"

 

Erin nodded, smiling weakly and got up shakily. "I love you too, just...be careful, love." He stumbled a little as he walked out of the kitchen, using the wall as a guide to get back out into the hallway. He had to pause because the world was spinning again, "Note to self...no more of the strong shit," he muttered under his breath. The brunette squeezed his eyes shut, trying not throw up. Why did he drink again? God damn...he couldn't even walk straight, and felt sick.

 

Gritting his teeth he opened his eyes and continued forward again. It was at a snails pace but at least he was getting somewhere, and not decorating the floor with his breakfast.

[Teesie]

Arish slowly walked forward before looking to his lover?....who was stumbling through the halls. Now, even though he was moving slower than a turtle, the brunette was finally getting somewhere. Smiling softly a wide smile cracked over his lips as he walked by and tapped the drunk individual onto the behind. "Don't ever drink again, ok? You'll defiantly have a hell of a hangover in the morning. I'll make sure I'm back before then. I love you, bye." The older male said before walking past Jackal B.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Erin blushed and stuck out his tongue out childishly at the taller, "You better back, and in one peice, ya hear me Arish!". Eventually the half-demon managed to make back to their room, and basicly collapsed on the bed. He shrugged off his shirt, and threw it on the floor, soon fallowed by his pants so he as only in boxers and bandages. He normally slept in his boxers anyways so he didn't care, momentary forgetting that Arish shared the bed. The conman curled up under the covers, much a kin to a cat. Sometimes he wondered if he had a little cat demon in him as well as bird. He sure had some cat-like mannerisms sometimes, and that included purring...not that'd he ever tell anyone that...willingly.

 

The conman then promptly passed out, hugging a pillow to his chest, all most completely hidden underneath the blanket. Before falling a sleep he hoped that his lover would be back soon, the bed felt colder and empty with out him.

[Teesie]

Arish had actually been walking around for hours now and was slowly drawing attention to himself. The scent of an angel was on him, maybe that was the reason many people had stopped to stare to him, not that he was the first angel down here...but maybe he still smelled of the Human Zone.

 

Walking slowly back to the Freelancer building there was something that caught his attention in the distance, it was his father. The long haired male was seeming to interrogate someone. A scared chocolate colored eyes met his and soon a finger was pointed. Eyes widening Arish was glued his spot as Arik turned and his eyes found him.

 

Breath hitching the ex hunter snapped from his trance before taking off in a run. There was one thing he had to do...and that was to lose his father before going back to the Freelancer building.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Kay was just minding her own business, and was stepping outside for some fresh air, but was met with the sight of the Jackal B.'s angel boyfriend take off as if someone lit fire under his feet. She soon saw why as a Hunter took off after him, "Idiot..." she muttered under her breath. She shot a hard glare to the man who corporated with the hunter, promising a world of hurt for the man later. The Neutral Zone does not betray their own...and she considered that Arish kid a honoray member now. Kid got guts...but might need to grow a brain.

 

Kay began tailing them discreetly, ready to jump the hunter. But judging by the resemblance the man had to the half-angel there might be something more to this than a simple hit and kill. So the Freelancers leader stuck to the shadows, trailing the two with surprising accuracy for a human. If it came down to it she'd shoot the full angel in the back of the head...no one said she ever played fair now did they.

[Teesie]

Not knowing the Neutral Realm well the dark haired angel was trapped in no time. Sighing he turned to face his father. The man that had causes him all this greed just to be in some stupid hunter group. It was never worth enough for killing his sister. Nothing was worth his sisters life....and to call himself an angel. The man was just as evil as Satan himself. Gritting his teeth, Arish sneered to the man as he rubbed his knuckles across the tears falling from the sadden and betrayed eyes if his son.

 

"Crying is for sissies. You, my son, is much better than that....I have something to tell you. Your mother....she was killed...it's all your fault.. If you were there and hadn't run here to be with that demonic death trap she's still be alive."

 

Arish looked to his father in disbelief before more tears came to his eyes. His mother had....died. Just like before he knew it was planned, just like the rest of his life. It meant nothing..."How could you? Mother loved you with all her heart, how could you let them kill her and do nothing. I hate you." The ex hunter confessed, not knowing that the father was lying.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Kay crouched in the shadows just behind them, eyes narrowed at the full Angel, Arish's father? Cruel, this was just cruel, especially with what she now knew. She slowly removed her gun from her belt, she knew what manipulation smelled like and this man reaked of it.

 

Flicking off the safty she prepared to to reveal herself. Standing fully she put on her usual cocky smirk. "Hey, you hunter types aren't very welcomed around these parts. Go spread your shit somewhere else," The woman shot Arish quick look, telling him to run as soon as possible, "Seriously, do all you angels fallow Loki the Liesmith? Cause that's all I'm hearin'". She hoped she hit home with that one, several Fallen she met asured her that was fucking insulting to most Angels.

[Teesie]

"Shot him." the dark haired male begged standing weakly. After his father heard that statement he rushed Arish to the wall and began to strike him. Remembering his wounds the half angel only protected himself. If the make strike his back, then that would be hell to deal with. The pain killer was already wearing off so he needed another.

 

"You should die for everything you put me through. There is not a fucking thing in my life that hadn't been planned out by you. I know it was your fault that my sister was raped and killed you bastard. FUCK YOU! DIE!" Pushing the older man off of him..

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Kay didn't need to be told that twice. When Arish pushed the older man of him the woman took her shot, and being the ace she was she got her only target, right between the wings and into the spine. Some blood sprayed with the with the exit wound, getting on Arish a little. The human watched as the Angel fell limp. She wasn't too sure if he was dead or just paralyzed, but either way he was fucked.

 

"Here kid," she tossed him the second gun strapped to her belt, "If you want to do any final...things, I guess, before we head back feel free. Do it quick, though."

[Teesie]

His eyes widened as his father fell limply in front of him. No....she...had just paralyzed him. This wasn't going to be good in the least. As a gun fell into his lap the dark haired angel glanced up to the smaller of the three and frowned slightly, of course he wasn't that nice. The man could be taken in for questioning.

 

"We can take him in to interrogate, and I hope there is some way you can fix him." Looking to Kay with a raised eyebrow. "Who ever said to fucking paralyze him. I expect for you to get ready for this escape plan, the Realm Officials are who sent him. If he doesn't return in twenty four hours....they'll be down here. GO GO WARN EVERYONE!"

 

Looking down at Arik the angel picked his father up, the man was heavy but he had carried heavier objects. Walking into the building that took about twenty minutes to get there, he set his father onto a table. From the impact of his head hitting the ground the full angel had fell unconscious.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Kay shruged, the boy said to kill so she did, though she was being merciful and only paralyzed him. She sighed and called Abel down for the both of them, "Make sure to only fix the older one so much to as he can talk, but not move. Have Ruu fix up Arish, then go get B., time to pull a Houdini."

 

Abel looked at her wide eyed...are they going to implement the plan? Well, despite being old he never thought he'd see the day. The full demon wrinkled his nose at the hunter, and angels thought demon smelt funny, and picked him up. Moving the man to the medical bay and getting him in a bed, he told Ruu to go take care of the young half-angel, and then go get Jackal B.

 

The young fallen healed the ex hunters concussion rapidly, it was a fairly simple thing to heal so he could do it on his own. Ruu had moved him to a chair rather than the floor, and bit his lip, what the heck was going on! He looked to the unconscious man, who if Ruu did it correctly, should be waking up any minute. Then his cellphone vibrated in his pocket.

 

Erin woke up to the sound of his obnoxious ring tone coming from his duffle bag. Groaning the brunette rolled out of bed, and padded over to check why someone decided to wake him up. He flipped open the cheap phone, wincing as the light irritated his growing headache.

 

'Time do go down the rabbit hole kids, Jabberwaky, and it's Queen are on our tails. 24 hours' Was the message that made the conman and the rest of the entire Neutral Zone go pale. Time to pull a Houdini indeed.

[Teesie]

Arish opened his eyes and stood slowly. "I want my father fully healed. Do you hear me? I don't care what the fuck Kay had commanded you all to do, he's my father. Under the same spell as I am, done to by his father that he has done to me. I want him healed." Looking into Ruu's eyes before slowly standing and looking around.

 

"Where is Jackal B., is he....here?" Twisting his lips slightly before his coal eyes settled on his father. "How is he, does he have any extreme injuries? He won't die would he?" Looking to Abel. Arish has had too much hurt in his life, he would soon be just a puddle of emotional mess. "He's my only family I have left." His voice trembling but no tears in his eyes.

[Guest cheshireArtist]

Abel blinked at the other as he rushed in, fallowed but Ruu who obviously wasn't prepared to have him run out of the room and to the medical bay.

 

"I want my father fully healed. Do you hear me? I don't care what the fuck Kay had commanded you all to do, he's my father. Under the same spell as I am, done to by his father that he has done to me. I want him healed."

 

Kay would be pissed, but Abel understood. Being a demon family was everything, even if that family had done cruel or bad things. God knows Abel yearned for his family, even though he didn't agree with what they did, or how they were to the other species in this shared world. "I shall...but spinal injuries are tricky...woman has good aim, I give her that," The man sighed, "But he'll live, I promise you that young one...Ruu, come help." The tiny fallen nodded and ran up to help his master.

 

"Mister Arish, can you leave the room please while we work. I don't believe you want to see these injuries, Abel's right, he'll live...but they're bad and we need to focus," Ruu explained firmly, "Go help the rest of the base to prepare to move under, if Jackal B. didn't tell you what that meant yet go ask him. If he got the text he's probably up."

 

The conman changed into a green tank top and a jacket, along with some jeans. Erin sat down on the bed and was in the process of putting on a pair of boot. He looked at the text again, what happened while he was asleep? And where was Arish? The brunette sure hoped he was safe and did nothing too stupid.

[Teesie]

Arish only nodded before padding down the hall to the other rooms where the two had went to sleep in the other day. Walking into the entrance of the door the half angel looked to the brunette who was now awake. The male was as beautiful waking as he was being up for hours. Smiling slightly he trailed more into the room before frowning slightly when he seen Erin was rushing to pack things.

 

"So I guess you got the text message. My- my mother was killed, that's what my father told me. H-he's in the other room and Abel and Ruu is working on him, but....I don't want him to die Erin. He's the only family.....I have left." Tears staining his eyes, but he refused to let them fall. The dark haired ex hunter was tired of all the emotional situations. When would all this end and he would have a happy ending?

[Guest cheshireArtist]

"...My- my mother was killed, that's what my father told me. H-he's in the other room and Abel and Ruu is working on him, but....I don't want him to die Erin. He's the only family.....I have left."

 

Erin's green eyes widened drastically, and he rushed over to his lover and pulled him into a tight hug. It was just like when Emily died. He rubbed the other's back, between the wings, he remembered Arish always liked that. "I-I'm sure h-he'll pull through, love," The half-demon said softly. Secretly he felt shocked that the man would let his wife be killed! They loved each other a lot from what he remembered...but judging from what Arish told him about the Elite Hunters the man probably never had a choice. He felt some tears well up in his eyes as well, but he held them back, he had to be strong for his dark angel, it would do neither of them good if they both broke down and were in shambles. He guided the other to the bed and got him to sit down, and sat down next to him.

 

The conman continued to rub the half-angel's back gently, and pressed a soft kiss to the coal eyed man's lips, offering silent comfort. Jackal B. was not quite sure of what to say, he was afraid if he said to much he might stress out his lover more. He was good with words only when it came to a deal, not things like this, at least he didn't think he was.
