"It was. Hey, speaking of dancing..." He started, walking over to the Cd player and picking out a random Cd. "Do you still know how to waltz?"

Banshi jumped up, "Of course I do!" Immediately getting into position, she asked, "So, do you want to lead, or should I?"

Mike laughed and took her hand in his. "I'll lead. Ya know, because I'm the guy and what not." He quickly pressed the play button on the Cd player and 'The Last waltz' started playing. They moved slowly around the small room, occasionally bumping into things and stepping on each others feet. The dance was fluid, smooth, just like old times. "It's been forever since we've done this." Mike remarked, spinning Banshi into his arms. ((Link-thingy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcyapKfYIEU))

Banshi twirled back out, for the first time in a long while, enjoying herself with little else on her mind. "It has been." She went back to dancing, quickly getting the steps perfectly right as she remembered and watched what to do. "One hundred, one hundred and fifty years or so?"

"Gee you make me feel so young." Mike joked as he spun her around with his right hand. "Hell, it's been forever since we even had a night like this. Just you and me enjoying ourselves." The song ended and he stepped back, giving her a small smile. "My dear, you dance wonderfully. Thank you for gracing me with your skill."

Banshi shrugged off the compliment, never having taken them too well. Remembering the dishes, Banshi walked over and picked them up, "I'll put them up." She smiled. After doing so, she walked back into the room. Sitting down on the floor, leaning against the wall on the right side of the cracked open door, Banshi reached into her pocket, and took out a lighter, playing with it. Making the flame as large as it would get, she moved her fingers through it, skillfully not getting burned and causing the flame to dance about. "You ever play with fire?" She asked playfully, a double meaning, obviously. Although this was a serious question, the peaceful and carefree look on her face and in her voice kept the mood very light. The fire reflected in her purple eyes, vanishing when she looked from the fire back to Michael.

He shook his head and sat down next to her. Watching the little flame dance around. "Eh, fire has never really appealed to me much. When Seth was growing up he was always playing around with it. And he usually ended up burning my files..." The memory was one of frustration, but it was pleasant enough to think about. "Why do you ask?"

Her eyes rested back on the flame, she moved her fingers away from it. "Because.... we're low on options." Blowing the flame out, Banshi rolled the lighter on her pants to cool it down before putting it in her pocket. "I'll figure something out."

"I could talk to Seth. See if he can help us out." Michael suggested. Trying to help Banshi think. "If all else fails, theres always me. My little healing talent can be used for more than just that. I've learned that the light burns away at vampire skin, that could be helpful."

Banshi shook her head, a sad and knowing smile on her face. The smile suddenly vanishing, she looked at Michael, deciding to go on ahead and tell him. "Listen... When I spoke to Viktor, he gave us two options; to go to war with them, or to assist them in fighting the Ushers to spread influence over Basil, where there we could live peacefully without any concern for food shortage or being hunted. Now-" Her expression turned serious. "I would not have us betray our allies. So, I came up with three separate options of my own, two of which he does not know, and one is just based on an educated guess."

Michael gave her a skeptical look. "And what are those options?" If there was one thing that Michael cared about, aside from Banshi, was the Usher family. Back many years ago when James was in charge, Michael was the head of info. The only reason he had quit was because James died. The man was like a brother to him, and Seth his nephew. He would never go against them, even if she willed it.

Banshi opened her clinched fist, then put the lighter that rest there into her pocket. "We're not going to fight against the Ushers..." Letting out a sigh, and rubbing her forehead, Banshi said. "I'll just.... tell you what my decision is tomorrow. There's too many things running through my mind to sort them out right now, not now." She bit her lip, then putting her head back, hit it hard against the wall. Looking straight ahead, Banshi blew some hair out of the way that was covering her eyes, then moved it over with her hand. Covering her face with her hand, Banshi mumbled something undaudible under her breath... not cussing, just a private thought.

Mike held her close to him and tried to comfort her. "Listen, how about you get some rest? Tomorrows a big day and you'll need it I'm sure."

Phantom_lover2 She looked up at Hex and then back at the cards and Runes. "I don't know. It has been a while since I've read them together." She studied them more before completely turning to Hex with a grim look. "My pain isn't over, and neither is yours. Something is going to happen Xie, and when it does it might cost us both our lives." Gritting his teeth he just gave a short nod, shifting to his cat form and leaping onto her shoulder. Then we best be ready for it.(( where would you like to go?))

Luna nodded and picked up all her stuff. "Come on, lets see if we can find a place in the Hollow Village to stay for a little while." She petted his head and walked out of the church.
((To the Hollow Village!!))
