Forgotten Wolf 09-22-2008 07:52 PM<br/>Brian******************************<br/><br/>â€œYes itâ€™s important. The Prince agreed to meeting with the alphas but the bad news he wants it done tonight!â€ Brian counter with some irritation of his own at being thought of a pawn in some vampires political quest and at having to spend so long tracking her down. â€œThe alphas are to come alone and the prince will be bringing two escorts to even the numbers outâ€¦ Weâ€™re to be meeting in the mage council hall and if I didnâ€™t have to spend so much time searching for you we would have all ready been there! The vampires are probably all ready waiting for usâ€¦â€ He practically growled. This really wasnâ€™t turning out to be his nightâ€¦He didnâ€™t pay any attention to the mage.<br/><br/><br/>Chris******************************<br/><br/>Chrisâ€™ sharp eyes narrowed back at the council leader though held his tongue at her treating him as just another low level messenger. As he turns to leave, there is a brief flash as the illusion that is the Mask is lifted revealing his true fae nature. The glittering emerald armor, the talon-like hands, the feather and petals that replaced his hair were only the start. From his back also sprouted two dark feathered wings and the very atmosphere change around him; the air becoming more like a cool spring morning complete with a the smell of flowers (actually there was always a slight though very intoxicating floral scent around him but now it was stronger) and dew. As a matter of fact, plants sprouted from his footsteps briefly as he walked away only to vanish without his presence to sustain them. It only lasted for a second or two before the vision of the business like man of Chris portrayed himself as left the room.<br/><br/>Chris waited in the entrance hall for the alphas and the vampire prince to arrive going off the impression the prince made that he was going to be heading right to the mage council hall once he had gathered his aids. Chris had told Brian also to come quickly as well thinking this was going to be a rushed introduction but as time started to go by and still no one had shown upâ€¦ Finally he decided to at least call the prince to make sure this meeting was going to be done before the sun came up. He didnâ€™t worry about Brian for the moment but he didnâ€™t show soon Chris would start getting nervous for his friendâ€™s safety. Now Chris was just waiting for the someone at the Elysium to pick up the phoneâ€¦<br/><br/>eferhilda 09-23-2008 05:57 PM<br/>Shey's eyes burned with well controlled rage as she met Brian's gaze, listening to him vent at her. Had Jack not been standing there she would have lost her cool and had it out right then and there with Brian for disrespecting her in such a way; the thought of Jack possibly getting hurt in the fight did not sit well with her. So instead she waits till he was done then she reached into pocket pulled out her blackberry pearl. Still meeting his gaze she held it to her ear then spoke very clearly into it, "Call Brian." A satisfied smirk comes to her face as she hears his phone vibrate and then begin to ring, "The wonders of modern technology."<br/><br/>Hanging up she looks over at him, "I make sure to get the best possible signal money can buy so that even here I can be reached. Though usually I would be at my apartment about now...." she gestures to Jack " but he ran into a bit of trouble and decided to bring it my way." she looks over to Jack and smiles softly before giving him a wink. Looking back to Brian "So he will be joining us since he saw this creature up close and personal. As for the vampire prince he can kiss my furry wolf ass if he is upset about us being late. Its rather rude for him to demand this meeting so soon and he will know of this and much more when I see his arrogant ass." she growled to him as she turned from him raising her cell phone to her ear again. She speaks quietly into it for a few moments before turning back, "Ok. The pack is aware of the meeting and my absence. They will be on alert but stick to my orders regarding no hunting the vampires while I'm gone."<br/><br/>With that she started off toward the meeting place, anger in her eyes for having to sink to such levels like dealing with vampires. The only good thing to come from this so far would have to be coming to realize her full feelings for Jack. If this should work out they way hoped then there would be more then enough time for them to spend loving one another. Experiencing the simple joy that comes from being with the one who completed your soul.<br/><br/>Sometime later the entered the council chambers of the fae, the feel of the magic and power made Shey nervous. Had she been in wolf form her hackles would have been raised, as it was she was already on high alert. She could hope that the vampires would be smart for once and not piss her off tonight, anymore then they had already for interrupting her and Jack. Had the prince not insisted on meeting tonight she could be, well doing something she would enjoy more then playing nice with those bastards. All well it was all for the greater good, right?<br/><br/>Scambo 09-23-2008 07:13 PM<br/>Jack scowled as the two spoke, not enjoying being purposefully ignored. His mood only darkened further when the man said that he couldn't come but his spirits soared when he heard Shey's rebuke.He struggled not to laugh as she pulled her phone out, and returned her smile.<br/>"Hey, like I said, things enjoy trying to kill me."<br/><br/>As they started out, he wondered vaguely who the third alpha was. There was Shey and Viktor, but who was the third? Was there even a third pack? There had been rumors and suggestions, but nothing concrete to go on. Whoever it was, they were smart enough to stay under the radar within Solace. He wondered absently if it was the man who had interrupted Shey and himself, Brian. They spoke like friends or at least equals, though it was apparent that Shey was upset. As he walked behind the two lupines, he found himself wondering just what we happening between himself and the enigmatic pack leader.<br/><br/>Sometime within the past three years he had fallen in love, though the when and why eluded him. What had happened in the clearing was spontaneous, the rush had overwhelmed him, drowning his senses and inhibitions beneath a tidal wave of forgotten desires and unfulfilled needs. He wanted to explore their relationship, see where it would take the two of them, but at the same time he was worried for her, afraid of what she would have to sacrifice for it.<br/><br/>Running a hand over his head, he decided to deal with the issue when the time came and focus on the present. He shifted the sword lashed to his back slightly, keeping the hilt protruding just over his shoulder. He fingered the Beretta sitting in its holster and felt the 44.'s handle jabbing him in the stomach. The mage council's hall loomed before them, a solemn monument to the Awakened. A nervous smile crossed his lips. It had been almost a year since he had last visited, and he hoped that the council didn't remember him or the little.....prank...he had played before abandoning the Arrows. As they approached, he saw that Shey was on edge. He moved beside her and squeezed her hand, drawing in the courage and power she seemed to radiate. As they passed, he notice the City Lord's alpha lounging nearby. Jack considered taunting him, but decided against it; the situation was too important to jeopardize for a few laughs. Taking a steadying breath, he hoped that his presence wouldn't endanger the peace.
