“So, ideally no war,” Max repeated. He felt Althea wrap his arm around her and he leaned into it as well. She seemed happy for the time being, and that counted as a success.

"We have to hope for the best and plan for the worst" Devaan replied.
"Why do I smell blood from upstairs?" Hellbent asked suddenly, mimicking Devaan's posture and body language.

How the hell did you manage to speak there? I'm in control!
You were distracted. I could get a quick sentence in.

"Because I got injured earlier."

Althea replied.

"And I showered without cleaning everything up."

"Do you know what Anthony Nightshade is doing?"

"Do you know what Anthony Nightshade is doing?"

"He got married, If I recall correctly, but I haven't met up with my informants in a day, so I don't know much about what he's up to right now."

“That’s right, we went to his wedding, didn’t we?” Max looked back to Althea, then back at Devaan. “He and Tena seem like a happy couple.”

"We did. I was late."

She smiled at the memory.

"They got married about a year after us."

"He joined the Ghostbloods, a couple of minutes ago."

She observed his face, carefully looking for a reaction.

“That’s great,” he said, then frowned. “Wait, so there’s a Hellbent, and then there’s an Anthony. How’d there be two of them?”

Hellbent took over.

What are you doing?

I'm going to speak to them.

"Hello. I'm in charge now." His entire body stance had changed, turning menacing, on the edge of violence.

"As you well know, the first body of Hellbent died in the Seven Day War. His soul was made into a cognitive shadow. It now resides in Anthony. I am a duplicate, made with DA technology, so he could fight Devaan. I would go to the beyond after death, on my own. But I am with Devaan, so I can continue."

Althea straightened, her hand closing around a sphere. There he was again.

"Hellbent."

She greeted him and then realized his earlier question.

"You asked after the blood didn't you?"

He looked at her, silent.

Althea inclined her head slightly, his silence answer enough.

"What role do you want to play in this game?"

She asked directly, but her voice was still calm. He had resumed his position as councilmember during the trial and he had followed when she'd ordered him directly. But still, he'd also followed Sephtis a year ago. She wanted to know what he expected, where he saw himself and then think about it.

"The Ghostblood councilman. I was not the one who went to the traitors. I was fighting Devaan, at the time. But I have all the memories I need." He gestured around. "I am the Hellbent that helped the righthand, the leader of the Ghostbloods, build to the position it is now."

Althea accepted it with a gesture and leaned against Max side again, thought about the facts. It was a mess, but then he had shown his loyalty today. For the rest she would have to wait and see. A part of her realized, that she was a bit too relaxed right now, that leaning against Max could be interpreted as a sign of weakness, but she had a hard time to really care about it. She knew Hellbent long enough that they should have settled this anyway.

"Good."

She replied.

"I will see to your security clearance tomorrow."

He nodded. "Should we begin the hunt?"

“We should,” Max said, sitting up straighter and hardening his expression. This wasn’t Devaan. He sighed. Having a friend and an enemy in one body was going to be challenging.

He felt Althea leaning against him so he stay put for now, stacking the plates and utensils upon each other to make it easy to carry to the sink. It seems no one other than him had had their cake.

Yeah. Unlike Anthony, who wants to invite him to dinner sometime :P

We really need to rp this one day!

Althea took the plates and brought them into the kitchen.

Could you stop? If we're going to search for him I need to be able to focus.

"It's late. But we still leave today?"

“I think so. Any leads we have could go stale if we delay.”

Ok. Should I Riot focus? He asked, slowly cutting off the calm Riot on both of them.

Maybe save it, for a dangerous situation. Depends on your ressources.

Smiling she added.

But you could come into the kitchen and kiss me before we rush into danger again.

Because you never knew if they both would come back again.

Oh, I was going to do that anyway, Max joked and made his way to the kitchen as well.

But I’m glad you read my mind.
