When Fall left the room he thought he would go ahead and check under the pillow as Thalia suggested. What he found surprised him, for it was a picture of him, and their two children. When Jonas heard Kirai speak, he tucked the picture back into place and walked out into the kitchen. "And who would that be?" He asked quietly to Kirai. "And what makes you think he wanted to be brought back? After all everything he fought for, for hundreds of years has for the most part fallen apart, why would anyone want to continue going? Who made you god?"

"I must vote with the fellow I don't know." Salazar said getting up from his seat. "I have issues with messing up the line of fate. Besides I think one zombie is all I can stand at the moment."

Lanius spoke. "Lanius Neco-Inclementia. And, it is not a matter of if he wishes to come back or not." His dark empty eyes looked through Jonas.
Kirai turned her attention to Salazar, she smiled softly, although suddenly just how empty her expression was came out. The fact that all her body had left was a persona and a shadow appeared, just for a small moment, before disappearing with her delicate doll like smile.

Jonas growled. "Kirai, don't you get it, he gave everything for everyone and what did that get him? Everything he did, everything that he stood for doesn't exist anymore. Let him rest in peace."

Thalia giggled at Salazar. "Silly, he isn't a zombie!"
"So, you're just going to force him to help you?" Fall growled, raising her fist as if to strike Lanius, but Grace placed a hand against her shoulder and she visibly relaxed.
"Lanius," Grace said, "Enlighten those that cannot see the future. What are your intentions for Edward once raised?"

A quiet knock came from the door, the boy Erik unaware of the atmosphere just on the other side of the thick wood. dressed as most teens, black clothing with neon green shoes, vest, and wrap around sunglasses, he didnt seem too bothered at the idea of disturbing people at their home.. the silver studs that lined his left ear glinting in the faint light as he held the note carlessly. lifting a hand he knocked again, eyebrow twitching with annoyance at his job. delivering mail? snores vill.

Lanius spoke, motioning for Kirai to please get the door, which she nodded and went and opened. Lanius cleared his throat, then spoke. "I shall put it bluntly. Avarice is a powerful necromancer, and is currently a rather large threat. Kirai knows this better than anyone, besides for our dear Mimicry, who knows all too well. Edward shall know what to do, he did not die for peace... we need him to bring peace back. He knows Avarice well enough to kill him, or atleast to be a powerful leader against him." Stopping, he looked straight into their eyes, and said. "Do trust us on this, it is not a matter of if we want Edward to be raised. We need him."
Kirai, turning from the door, letting the guest inside said, her eyes slanting slightly. "Edward... after Avarice killed me, was my only company. From the time I awoke for two hundred years afterwards, he stayed with me. If I were to bring him back for anything but selfless reasons, I should have done so by now. In addition, I should not have bothered raising Avarice if that was the situation."
Lanius turned and noticed the guest, a small hidden grin appearing across his face. "Kirai shall explain, if you would excuse me." He crossed over to Erik. His eyes said everything, looking down at the boy, I take it you have a message for me?
((dang, forgive me guys ^^;; stressful, Noah and Mimicry know about why I am a bit loopy))

Jonas just shook his head. "Do what you will, but know this, the ritual you need to perform, I do know of it. You require one that is the closest to his heart to revive him. Well there are three people that I can think of that match that discription, and two of them are gone. The last person is the one who doesn't even know how much he cared and loved. And that is you Kirai." Jonas turn his back to the group, and marched back into Fall's bedroom.

"Right well thats all fine and dandy." Salazar said watching Jonas go by. "My question is why should we go along with your personal vendetta. Do we get thrown a bone, and yes I do mean that metaphorically." He said as he twiddled his thumbs. The fact that he was unarmed was bugging him greatly.

His only responce was to hand him the letter, folding his arms over his chest as his shadowlings sat on each side of him. Kara nuzzled his hip and made a yowling sound, her sharp tail flicking dangerusly close to Kirai's foot. absently he patted the creatures head soothingly, blowing a bubble with his gum and poping it loudly.. seeming to ignore the others in the room as he waited for Lanius's responce. behind his shades his gaze slid to Salazar and, seeming to understand his fidgiting, he knelt down and pulled a dagger from his boot. without a sound he droped it on the mans lap, once again returning to his statue-like state. The letter Read:
Passed through town and heard a few things, must say im a fan of your work. Find yourself in need of anything and send this boy after me, ill find you. ~Tane

Kirai opened her eyes wider, then slanted them, her face serious, stareing at Jonas as he walked out, a million thoughts running through her mind before she pushed them out. "Throw a bone? More something along the lines of... only everybody bleeds." Kirai noticed the sharp tale flicking, but ignored it.
Lanius read the letter within a glance less than a second long. Folding it up and tucking it inside of his vest, he said. "Respond to Tane, that I am in want of something..." His grin appeared, eyes showing amusement that after this long, still a follower existed... even more so, curiousness, that somehow, they found out so quickly that he was alive. Taking out a few gold coins, he gave them to the boy. "We all need money, even the richest of us. Do we not?"

"I'm sorry, Grace, I can't stand beside you on this..." Fall followed closely behind Jonas, closing the door behind them. Leaning against it, she slumped and brushed her fingers through her hair. "Will you be alright?" She asked. *** "Both are valid points," Grace replied, "but I believe raising Edward would be in the greatest interest of everyone." It seemed cruel, almost, but she understood. Sacrifices needed to be made. "Avarice grows more and more powerful with each day...if we're going to act, we must act now. Before he's too much for even Edward to overtake."

The rage within Jonas just made him shake violently. "I don't know love. This is an outrage, why can't they just let my father rest in peace? Why must he be brought back to fight again, and suffer more than any of us? As much logic as it may seem to bring him back, he finally found some measure of peace of his own."

" Too late for that." Erik murmered, pocketing the coins and starting for the door.. adding in a annoyed tone. " Jack the Rippers on his side, good luck getting past that psyco." it would later be amuseing to him that, while the people he bunked with knew all about these strange events.. the people involved with them had no idea what all was happening just yet. pulling the collar of his vest up against the chill the teen made a disgruntled sound, halting as Kara refused to budge.. the shadow hound rubbing its cheek against Kirai's arm as it made a keening sound at Erik. " Kara, not our fight.." with a last, absent nod to the others he left quietly.. his hounds fallowing obediantly.

Kirai nodded in agreement. "Things are bad enough as it is... we need to end this before it gets too far out of hand. Besides... surely it will help to have a person who can raise the dead as well fighting against Avarice." Her eyes were dark as she said this, but very calm and peaceful.
