born to do. What do you want me to do?” I asked, in a bitchy way.
“I think I’ll go find my Custos, ” Lada said, and I heard her get up and walk away. Behind Chax I could see Nanini still going at it, and then my eyes fell on Chax’s again.
“So are you just going to stand there looking at me, or are we training?” I asked, now getting pissed off at him. He turned to look at Nanini going at the course, then turned back and looked past me.
“Salve Arianna.” he said and then I heard footsteps behind me. I just kept my eyes on Nanini, looking into Seth’s partners eyes now would not be a good thing.
“Salve Chax, I see you have the same problem we have,” she replied and walked passed me with Lotan on her right side to the arena. Chax followed her to the spot she picked for training. They spoke and I saw Lotan say something to Chax but I just wasn’t interested. Nanini finally stopped and walked up to me .
“Can’t get it out,” she complained, and paced up and down in front of me.
“Yeah same here, and it looks like Lotan isn’t doing any better. What a way to begin a day, but hey this is a fallen life so we just need to get used to it,” I replied to her, watching her move up and down.
“Yeah,” she said and looked at me; I could see her internal war in her eyes. I think the question we are all facing is; why bother?
“Salve Nanini, Kas,” Seth said from behind me, and stopped at my left side. I looked at him, his smile lighting up my mood a little.
“Hi Seth,” I responded, and Nanini followed suit. I saw movement in the corner of my eye and turned my head to see Chax walking back to me, his face all serious as always . “It’s going to be a long day again,” I said and looked at Seth, this time with a small smile on my face.
“That bad, hey?” he replied and turned his head to follow Chax as he walked back to us . “I’ll see you later. Nanini, let's begin,” he said and walked off with Nanini, leaving me alone. Well for a while at least. Chax made he’s way back to stand in front of me. He looked at me but still said nothing.
“So, are we training, or are we just going to stare at one other?” I asked him, getting more pissed off by the minute. He kept looking at me then offered his hand. Oh boy, here we go. I placed my hand in his, and the next moment we were standing in a dark ally, a street with moving cars in front of us, music banging in the building to our left. Releasing my hand he turned and opened a door of the building, the music crashing into the ally. We were in the human world, but why?
He gestured for me to follow and walked in. I followed him into a hallway leading into another, a line of people standing in it. He turned left and I looked down to see it was a line waiting at the bathrooms. I followed him into what looked like a club, people everywhere dancing to metal music. Chax walked up some stairs that led to a second floor, also filled with people. He walked over to a railing and stopped then started looking down at the crowd; I followed and stopped next to him.
He just looked down and didn’t say a word . “So, what are we doing here, am I even allowed to be here?” I asked him. He lifted his head and looked at me.
“You are here with me so it’s allowed, and I’m showing you the answer to your question,” he replied and looked back down.
My question? I can’t remember asking him something . “What are you talking about?” I asked confused.
“Patience,” he responded, and continued looking at the crowd. I bent over and did the same. Everyone was having one hell of a time, enjoying their normal life. I saw a couple making out in one of the booths and suddenly felt shy; is that what Seth and I look like? Man, they were devouring one another. I then saw a hot guy walking between the dancing people, smiling and greeting some of them, he walked around like he owned the place. He stopped at a girl that looked like she was sixteen and wrapped
