Forgive, O Lord,
my little jokes on thee...

Ash narrowed his eyes, as he looked at the unwrapped blade, and carefully lifted it up by its hilt.

"Hmmmm..." he mumbled.

"I can see why, now." he said.

"If this weapon is anything to go by, the owner of it is... not someone to be left alone." he told her.

"Now... a question." he continued, setting the blade down carefully.

"...alive? Or not?"

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"Kill either of them you meet." Sydney stated simply.

"beccause both are problems." She contiued.

"And both need to be eradicated. Deryck could develop the eye, too."

"...noted." Ash responded.

"And I assume word of this does NOT get out?" he then said.

"Mostly because the fewer the amount of people that know about this, the safer the operation will be." he reasoned.

"...also, got a description of either?" he asked.

"Just so I have a vague idea as to what I'm looking for?"

"Of course. The last thing that we need known is that you're hunting a hunter. That won't go well, at all." Sydney told him with a nod.

"As for a vague idea... well..." She started before sighing, heavily, and giving her what information she had, which really wans't much at all.

"If you want anything more specific, I'll get you in to talk with Desiree."

"Hmmm." Ash mumbled.

"Might be best." he said.

"In the meantime, I'll start a sweep of the city he was last seen in." he told her.

"The info isn't much, but I've found targets with less." he added with a snicker.

"...and I'll bring back some kind of proof that it's done." he then assured the woman.

"I know it's normally not required for... this sort of thing... but even if you want to see it, and then dump it, I'll bring SOME kind of proof that they're dead."

Sydney just smirked. It wasn't mischievious or fun though. She looked downright sadistic and evil.

"Go right on ahead." She stated.

"Bring me back whatever you wish. Something identifiable and obviously going to kill them would be fantastic." She added, her voice dark.

"Won't torture her with whatever it is, but Jaden? Oh he'd love it."

Ash nodded.

"Right." he said.

"I'll try my best, at least, anyway." he muttered.

He then sighed, before snapping his fingers and checking his computer.

"Hmmm.... hmmmmmmm..." he murmured.

"...the hell...?" he said.

"Seems nobody's heard from our suppliers for months." he told Sydney.

"Something may have happened to them."

Sydney was silent for a moment.

"Excuse me?" She asked.

"That is definitely not good." She added, seeming to be thinking about it for the moment.

"I think it might be worthwhile to look into that. Because that is NOT good."

"Indeed." Ash said.

"Should bring it up with Dani." he told her.

"Odds are it'll be a good hunt for someone in the lower ranks." he reasoned.

"A simple info-gathering mission? Seems like it's perfect for... well, maybe not a newbie, but someone with a year's worth of experience so far." he continued.

"I'll tell her, and then get a move on to try and find our... 'friends'..."

...and I'll forgive thy

Sydney nodded.

"Sounds like a plan." She agreed.

"I'm just going to hide out in here for a bit. I do NOT want to go back to the Triad business I ditched. I am getting sick of Peter."

"..." Ash was silent, and then sighed.

"Well... let me know if there's anything I can... do... to help with that." he told her, clearing his throat in the middle of the statement.

"Hang around in here as long as you want." he stated.

"See you later." he finished, before leaving the office and making his way to Cass's, knocking on the closed door.

"Dani? You in?" he called through it.

Oh, you know you can help. Sydney thought before looking to the notepad he had. She'd leave a note for him.

Jaden was still working to clean up the blood when he head the door open. It wasn't the front door, it was the patio door that was in Desiree's bedroom. As he made his way over, he saw someone there, but it wasn't easy to ID who, with the low light, as it was a stupid hour of the night.

"Hey." They greeted, having picked up on his presence in the doorway as the figure bent over and turned on the light that was on the end table next to her bed.

"Rene didn't want to let me leave, but your Mom told him you were here." She added with a light laugh.

"...well, she was right, obviously." Jaden replied.

"Hi again, Desiree." he greeted her, clearly a little surprised.

"You don't look nearly as bad as when I saw you last." he commented.

"How are you feeling?" he asked.

"Clearly well enough to be out and about, but really. How are you?"

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

Desiree Was silent for a moment before sighing, heavily.

"I'm ... all right. I'm alive, bit on the weaker side, and kind of feel like I'm about to just... drop." She admitted as she sat down on the bed.

Jaden shook his head slightly.

"I suppose it's understandable." he said.

"Yeah, I've been here for a while, cleaning and straightening things up." he told her.

"Checking for things that might have been damaged or broken or stolen." he continued.

"..." he was then silent, before looking around, and then back towards her.

"Scared me half to death when I saw you hurt like that..." he admitted.

Desiree was silent for a moment when Jaden Said what he did.

"Sorry about that." She said with a shake of her head.

"He caught me in the shower." She continued.

"After I'd managed to knock him out, I threw on some clothes and started to walk to your place. That blade of his always screws with my mana." She added.

"...good thing I told you where I live." Jaden mumbled. "Would have been a MUCH worse situation had I not..." he said further, before shaking his head again, in an effort to not dwell on what could have been.

He then looked at Desiree once more, and smiled slightly.

"You really are a fighter." he told her.

"Oh, yeah, that blade of his." he then said.

"He doesn't have it any longer. I found it and gave it to my Mom so she can analyse it and such." he informed her.

Desire shook her head.

"Make sure your Mom knows to be careful. It's a hunter relic." She told him honestly.

"It will steal the mana, the life, from anyone non-hunter born that handles it for too long." She added.

"Oh.... did my headphones survive?" She asked, her voice curious. She realised that she'd likely need to contact Leo as she was rather certain that when they hit the wall earlier, it didn't do anything good, but she had to ask.

"She knows to be careful around it." Jaden responded.

"And... headphones... headphones..." he mumbled, before snapping his fingers.

"Ah!" he exclaimed.

"I remember seeing them!" he said, before leaving the room for a few seconds, and then returning with them.

"Here." he told her.

"Not sure if they still work or not." he admitted.

Desiree accepted the tech before sighing as she tested one joint... and it easily came apart.

".... Nope." she commented.

"Which is unfortunate, I'm going to have to get ahold of a friend to get a new pair again."
