<br/><div class="floatleft">(http://i1141.photobucket.com/albums/n587/FrankReshman/Spike-buffy-the-vampire-slayer-9634.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Tiberius<br/><strong>Title:</strong>Demon Slayer/Bodyguard<br/><strong>Species:</strong>Human<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Outside the tavern<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Kade, Shenovi, Antonius<hr/><br/>Tiberius was finally able to swallow his smugness.  It wasn't fit of a warrior of God, he reasoned, and he shouldn't have felt it to begin with.  Still, this woman in front of him presented him with a multitude of emotions he hadn't felt in years.  Real, actual human emotions; smugness, anger, frustration, admiration, respect, and a certain twinging in his chest, among other places, when she looked at him with those big green eyes of hers.  He closed his eyes and took a deep breath in, trying to gauge the situation and trying to figure out what to do next.  To be honest, he was surprised, and a little impressed that she hadn't gone into denial or shock at seeing the Archangel in person.<br/><br/>He tried to detach himself from the scene like Antonius had once taught him to do.  There was something dangerous about the pink-eyed-man, that was for certain.  However, exactly how dangerous he was, he could not be sure, though, if Antonius had come down to interfere, he could not be human.  Furthering his evidence that this man was not all he seemed, the Archangel usually let Tiberius fight his own battles.  There had never been divine intervention before; not like this, anyways.  No, the man must have been something special to have caught the attention of the Archangel.  He opened his eyes again after a few seconds and stared right into the eyes of....her.<br/><br/><strong>"Alright, Kade, was it?  Alright, Kade, I have no idea what is going through your head right now, but I'm coming with you back to your house."</strong><br/><br/>As soon as he said it, he felt his brain explode into a million pieces.  He slowly opened his mouth, then closed it.  He tried once more to speak, before uttering forth a<strong>"I mean to say, you're not safe alone..."</strong><br/><br/>It was probably the weakest thing he could have possibly said, but, he hoped she would allow him to protect her.<br/><br/><strong>"Look, I apologize for everything that has happened so far.  I'm not asking you to like me, or to even trust me.  But so far, I have done nothing to harm you.  Please, allow me to accompany you and act as your bodyguard.  Evil things are afoot in Krum, and you are not safe; no matter how competent you think you are at self-defense, I can assure you there are things you will need me for."</strong><br/><br/>With that, he sheathed his sword and looked up to his friend.<strong>"Antonius!  I'm going to get this female to safety.  I am leaving this urchin in your care.  Take care my friend!"</strong>He flashed the large angel a grin and motioned for Kade to hurry out of the alley.  As she turned, he couldn't resist looking her up and down.  Protecting her for a few days?  He could think of worse assignments.
