"Come on, keep running!" Kaneko was tired already. She had worked a very long shift, she wanted to get home and get some much needed sleep. Food didn't even interest her right now. Her foot buckled and she had to hold out her hands in front of her to keep herself from falling.

The old man laughed softly. "You want to end the fight? Really? So soon? Oh Allen come now, you're the one who asked me to kill you. Trust me, I'll be doing everyone a favor when there is one less of you running around loose." He said, readying the gun again and aiming at the vampire's cold chest. Right through the heart, that should kill him. He thought so anyway. "Kaneko is at work. Even if she were out, she would be on her way home, she's not coming down here. She knows better."

Kaneko's lungs burned, begging for her to stop and take a few breaths but she couldn't and wouldn't. She ran and ran until she spotted her father pointing a gun at something. "D-dad?" She said, sounding confused. Her running slowed to a walk and coming closer, she saw Allen holding on to his arm. "Allen!?" Her eyes widened and she looked at her father. "Dad...you...you shot him?!" She felt herself start to grow angry. Her father only looked at her, he looked surprised to see her there. "You should be at home, now go." he ordered, ignoring her completely and focusing on his target instead; Allen.

Kaneko couldn't believe it, her father had shot Allen, why? "N-no! No...if I go you'll hurt Allen and I'm not going to let you!" She replied seriously. "Leave Allen alone!" She warned, getting in between her father and Allen, her face held a serious and hurt expression. Why was her father doing this? Why wasn't he at work? Her father looked at her again and narrowed his eyes again. "I told you to go home. This has nothing to do with you Kaneko." He warned. Again, Kaneko only shook her head and remained where she was. "I am not going anywhere and there is nothing you can do or say that will make me change my mind. I will not let you hurt him!" Kaneko replied seriously. Her father, now angered by her defiance, raised his hand to hurt her but Kaneko only braced herself and closed her eyes.

"You're right. It isn't. At least I know some mortal is looking out for him." He said. It sounded mean but he hadn't meant it that way. A best friend? Well now, that was good to know. They were only friends, there was nothing more going on. Good, this was good. His son didn't need any distractions. "Vent to?" Ares repeated and raised an eyebrow. However he would never get an answer because right at that moment, he was being summoned. "I need to get going. You mortals sure enjoy praying." He muttered and vanished.

Back at work, Eros was finishing up working along with her father. They were just about done getting ready to walk back to their homes. Eros had a lot on his mind, mostly just stuff about the war. Were his parents mad at Sapphira still? Had she apologized to them? Had they accepted? Would it be okay if he asked them? Maybe he could pay a quick visit to the temples and have a talk with his parents or visit Sapphira and talk with her first.

Troy gave Aria a look of confusion, Why did they suddenly want him to go read? It wasn't until later that he realized what they were up to and he only smirked, "Good move." He told them then looked at Amalia. "Miss Amalia, if you could follow me please." He said quietly and chuckled softly while walking to his library with Amalia following after him. Lyle smiled at his friend and waved; "Have fun you two!" He called after them then looked at Aria and shook his head. "Not right now. For now, I just want to hold you close is all." He said, pulling her close and kissing her cheek. "Do you think Troy caught on to our plan?" He asked her.

Amalia smiled, "You like to read as well?" She asked softly. Lyle nodded. "It is our favorite pass time." Lyle answered. "It's good to know we all have something in common. Troy, you like reading too don't you?" He asked with a mischievous smirk. Troy was always there behind him and Aria, now it was Lyle's turn to play matchmaker with Aria's help. Troy wasn't sure what Lyle was up to but nodded. "I do." He answered. "You know miss Amalia, Troy has a wonderful collection of books in his library. Have you seen it?" he asked. Amalia blinked and shook her head quickly. She hadn't seen anything really other than her own room here and now this sitting room. Lyle faked surprise and looked at Troy, shaking his head and tsking. "You should show her Troy. Perhaps you'll find a book you can both enjoy." He said with a smirk.

"And the moment you did you ran off." Ares said, looking back at the sketch then at her again. "He works with your father, that's what my wife tells me. I have never actually watched him work, but I assume he does a great job." He said, his face holding a serious expression. "Ah and I was told to thank you for feeding my son lunch. Sometimes he likes to leave the house in such a hurry that he forgets he needs to eat like everyone else. I think that he sometimes thinks being the son of the gods means he doesn't need to eat. He's young, he still has much to learn it seems." Ares explained honestly. He loved his son very much and now he would have to keep an eye on him as well as on this girl, what did she want with his boy?
