Misery looked down at her clothes and smiled, "Well, thank you." When he noticed all the food she smiled nervously, "Uh, yea. I think I got carried away is all. I made entirely too much." Misery sat down, watching him eat with a smile. Lahziel never enjoyed her cooking this much. "Dont worry about not eating with me, its nothing big." She looked a little surprised when he told her that her DNA was human though, "Are you sure? Maybe you were tired and you mind just made up the data to fill in the gaps...." It was a nice thing to believe though. She thought for a moment, looking up at the ceiling, "Maybe...I am a cyborg of sorts." Suddenly the door bell ran and Misery looked back at the door, then to Asher, "Are you expecting some one?" Deadra |

"It's magnificent though" He was eating at an almost breakneck pace, it was all really good, she was an excellent cook, he was starting to wonder how he'd ever even lived without her around to keep him from killing himself with his own cooking... he looked up and smiled as he swallowed again. "Well... I just feel a little bad. And you might be, but I'm not sure thats the right word because nothing in you is even entirely mechanical. I mean your wings are made of a metallic compound nore so than the rest of you, but I'm willing to bet that they are for all intents and purposes, alive as well. And no, I didn't make it up, here." He got up, walked over to the table by the couch, then he walked back over and sat down, putting the pad on the table where she could see and turning it on to the page that had the PCR on it. "I know these are hard to read, but... the correlation there is a perfect match for human DNA. There are only some slight oddities, but no more variance by percentage than you might find between... I don't know, a black man and a white man." The knocking, though, interrupted his speech. "No... here, stay out of sight for a moment, just in case, ok?" He smiled reassuringly, though, and walked over to the door, where he put his eye to the peephole. Who would be coming here..? |

Asher would see an ordinary delivery man checking his clipboard when he peeped out. The man backed up a little to check to see if this was the right address and rang the doorbell again. "Who is it?" Misery asked quietly from out of site. For some reason she looked behind her, worried that there might be someone there but there wasen't. The delivery man shrugged and left the package on the door step. It didnt need to be signed for or anything and he had a schedule to keep. The box was rather large and didnt have a label to say where it had come from. It simply had Misery Sariel and the address to Asher's house written on it. The little bird began to cheep with anticipation. It flew to Asher shoulder and wanted the door to be opened. Deadra |

"Mailman... weird. I never get any mail." He shrugged and opened the door as the man started to walk away. "Thanks!" He looked back to the bird and shushed it quietly, laughing a little bit at the excitable little thing. "I'm getting it, I'm getting it..." He picked the box up then, and carried it back inside, pushing the door closed with a foot before he carried it over to the table by the couch and set it down. After that, he looked up to her, shrugging. "It's for you, Misery... No return address, though. You want to open it....? Bird seems to think we should." |

Misery emerged and approached the box with worry. Who knew that she was staying here? She really didnt know anyone and she knows she didnt write Ashers address down anywhere...she didnt even know it. Still, she opened the box and looked inside. She pulled something out that was covered in a cloth and held it up, only to have bluish blood rush out of the bottom and spill all over the floor. Misery jerked the cover off to reveal her bird cage with all of her birds in it. She stared in disbelief, shock, and fear at what lay inside. All of the birds were mutilated almost beyond recognition. Misery dropped the cage and the door opened slightly. One of the birds made a sound much like the one Asher's little friend did when it was broken. "I left....I left them at his house...." Was all she could manage to say. Lahziel knew were they were. He sent misery a little gift just to tell her that no matter where she ran, he would find her. Deadra |

He shook his head a little bit, and watched her open the box, but just before she pulled it out, his face paled. "Misery do-" She'd already taken it out, though, and he saw the blood everywhere, the birds she'd so lovingly created smashed and destroyed... "That son of a bitch..." He looked down, clenching his fist, shaking slightly with rage. He'd done that to living creatures just to try and terrify a girl that didn't deserve any of this... Finally he stepped to her and put his arms around her again. "I'm sorry... I thought you would be safe here, I guess I was wrong..." He looked around the apartment for a moment, then he took a deep breath. "We'll have to leave. This place isn't safe anymore. All your clothes are still in bags, right? Get them together, I'll pack some of my things afterwards. I've got to make a few phone calls... I'm not going to let him get back at you, Misery, okay...?" He smiled softly to her, looking into her eyes, then he let her go and walked into the kitchen, grabbing the phone. "Kana? This is Asher. Yeah, get me Tagert again... tell him it's important." |

When Asher left to make a phone call, Misery knelt and began to gather the pieces of her birds she had put a little of herself into. The live bird was already gathering up the pieces of his fallen comrades. When she had gather all the pieces and got her backs and emptied on of them and placed all the smashed parts in there. She rummaged though Ashers things and found a bottle with a stopped on it and she managed to get the blood off the floor and into the bottle with the help of the bird. These birds were different than the plain mechanical toys she had created before. She had modeled these after the bird Gerald had made and used her own blood to kick start there existence. They werent nearly as perfect as his bird, but they were still living creatures. Misery then approached Asher from behind, looking to the floor, "Where will we go now? What about all your stuff? All your inventions?" Deadra |

He waited on the phone for a few moments, then he spoke again. "Yeah, it's me. I found the murderer in that odd case of yours. Yeah, and the girl that lived there with him. Yes, yes she does, but look... Tagert... I've got to ask you a bigger favor than I normally have. Oh come off it, shithead, this is serious, and I think it goes a lot deeper than one man... I need you to keep this secret, alright? The girl can't be a witness... I'm going to run. Because for once in my life I have something to do besides walking around aimlessly, Brian!" There was a long silence, and Asher closed his eyes. "Just run interference for me. Thanks, Brian... I owe you." He laughed finally. "Okay, youre right we're even. Bye." He put the phone down, then looked up as she came in. "He's a friend of mine, he'll keep the police off us if it comes to that... he's also got cars headed to that man's house, I doubt they'll catch him but I want to show him I have some pull too." He stopped, though at what she said, and he shook his head again. "Misery... Stuff is just stuff, and inventions are just more stuff, I don't like to brag, but I can rebuild that stuff anytime anyways." He grinned a bit, but it faded fairly quickly. "Anyways... none of it is that important. I promised I would keep you safe. And I'm going to. We might be able to take some of the food too, can get a hotel room with a kitchen... won't be able to stay long but... we can keep moving. Even if he gets to the bank I have my money all over the place just from investments, he'll never get it all. As for family... well my family's dead too, so no worries there." He looked away a moment. Was the first vision he'd ever had... first one he'd never been able to do anything about... |

Misery smiled sadly at Asher, "Thank you Asher. You are doing so much for me, even though you dont have too." She then began to take some non perishable out of the cabinet and a few dishes just in case. "Right then, we better hurry. Do you have a box to put all this in? You had better pack some clothes too while I am doing this." She paused, "If you have an extra suit case, then that would be easier then carrying all these bags around." Misery kept working as she spoke. She then remembered the box she had found while cleaning the kitchen, "Never mind about the box, just go get you some clothes and anything else you might want to bring." Misery went out of site for a moment to get the box, and dumped the parts out onto the floor and returned to cram the food in. She dashed to the bathroom and grabbed her toothbrush and grabbed Ashers too. She also grabbed whatever towels and shampoo. Sure they didn’t NEED them, but they were nice to have. She finally ended up in the kitchen again, waiting on Asher. She looked in the bag with her broken birds and noticed the live on in there trying to repair his buddies. She needed to work on them soon before it was too late too. Deadra |

He shook his head a little bit, smiling back. "Don't worry about it. I'll be back in a few." He walked back into his room and pulled a couple suitcases out of his closet, which he started filling with clothes. As he came to the bototm of his closet, he found a fair sized wooden chest, which he put in the suitcase as well. He had almost forgotten about it... After a while he came back out, and put them by the door. "I put your clothes in the blue one, alright?" After that he walked over to the birdcage, and looked at them all... "I'm going to box these up too... we'll take them to my lab, I have a few things there that might help." He wrapped them up and put them back in the box, letting the other one stay, so he didnt close the box up. After that he went to his coat, and pulled out his gun, which he strapped under the coat he had just pulled on, leaving the bloodstained one "Anything else?" |
