Kalore twitched, "Oh go back to your food." Eldin on the other hand grinned, "Thank you..." Turning to the other elf, he stuck out his tongue but quickly went out of reach as Kalore almost ripped it out. "Brat..." The two began arguing in elvish, at least having enough dignity to not be loud. Obviously these two weren't going to get along...
When Kyoshi was outside, having shut and locked the door, Dusk started laughing. "He looks like a freakin' pimp!" Laughing more, she shook her head, the smile seeming to be permanent on her face. Yup, and that pimp was hers.

Monty smirked at Eldin and returned to his food. Maybe they could still be like they were in the elevator only a little at a time. "I do believe that Gambler said to be nice. So, let's not disobey her orders in the beginning of your careers. That would be a very bad mistake." Joker raised a brow at Monty. "Since when has anyone ever given a damn about what Gambler says? All of you just look at her as a female and don't take it seriously." He said. Monty narrowed his eyes at Joker. "The only reason why I don't listen is because as soon as I have her where I want her, she dies by my hands." He replied. The Twins snapped their attention to Monty and rolled their eyes. Joker did the samething.
Kyoshi walked through the familiar short cuts through the city to get to the one place that Gambler works in. He came up to a pretty normal looking building that blended in with the rest around him. But the only thing that made this place different from everyone else was that it had protective wards that were complicated, just like the woman inside. Taking a deep breathe, he walked in and went to the top floor. Gambler and Kyoshi liked heights as they didn't like living on ground floors to any building. He walked to the last down door at the end of the hallway and entered without knocking, a big no-no with Gambler.

"What?!" Eldin's voice went up at least an octave as he looked at the demon, shocked. But before he coud say anything, a piece of dessert was shoved in his mouth by Kalore, "Shut up and eat. And I am being nice. Brat's living, ain't he? He's not injured or anything, so I've done damn good." Taking a bite of his own dessert, the elf tried to be a b***h, but there was a grin on his face. It seemed like the experience in the elevator had done both men some good.

Monty rolled his eyes. "You call shoving a spoon down the boy's throat being nice? You need to go and get your head checked, elf." He grumbled and finished his food, ignoring the shock from Eldin and well, inwardly grinning at Kalore. Joker looked at both. "I think I missed something." Monty rolled his eyes again.
Kyoshi dumped a box of paper work on the floor next to Gambler's desk and stood in front of her. "Listen to me Gam. I'm going to stay here in Area 6. Me and Dusk are going to live in the apartment that had those papers and there is not a damn thing your going to say about it." He said. Gambler looked up from her papers and smiled. "I know. Just don't make me regret that." She teased and went back to writing. "I also...wanted to tell you something that is still bothering me." Gambler looked up again and watched him intently. "What?" "After....The talk with me and Dusk...." A shoe came and hit Kyoshi in the face. He growled loudly at her. "You guys didn't talk. You never talk Kyo. You freaking yell...But please continue. Don't let my shoe stop you." She said with mock innocence.
Kyoshi had told her about that attack by another angel. Gambler frowned. "That's the second one on your life." "If that woman is still around then that's why." "But she's not. While I wasn't around, me and Raid went after Casanova's employer. It happened to be her and well, we took them out." "What do you mean Casanova?" She then explained to him about Casanova's betrayal. She didn't know who else he was telling the information to. Kyoshi growled. "I know but there's nothing else we can do now. Everything sort just solved on it's own." "No. I think I may know who Casanova gave information to but I'm only guessing." "Well, I don't care anymore. What happened, happened and there's nothing we can do about it. In end things have....Calmed down enough."
Kyoshi nodded. "But...We have to keep an eye out for any rogue angels that still might be out there. I don't want you to get hit." "It would be ashame to see you fall again too." Gambler grinned. "Awwwww. Little Kyoshi is caring....That's so cute." Kyoshi snorted and walked to the door. "Tell Dusk I said my greetings." Kyoshi nodded and walked out with his next stop...Home to Dusk.

"It is nice." Sitting down, Kalore took another bite and smiled at Joker, "It's great, man!" Eldin pouted but sat far away from both demon and elf, taking a timid bite as he nodded. "It is good, Sir Joker." At that, Rave came out, sighing as he ran a hand through his hair. "I got a call from Alice...If it's okay, I need to head over there and see what's wrong." Kalore raised a brow, "You aren't even a Master anymore but people still run to you..." "Tell me about it..."

Joker looked at Rave. "Sure! You want anyone else going with you? Gambler isn't a control freak you know. She understand's if you have other business to attend. You want to bring some dessert to Alice?" He asked, with a big smile at the compliments everyone, besides Monty, gave him. Monty shrugged. He didn't care because he was into his business and not anyone else's until he had to be.
Kyoshi retraced his steps and got back to the apartment he shared with Dusk. As he came through the door, he took of his jacket and tie throwing them on the couch. With his mind he locked the doors and windows. He took off his weapons and placed them at certains parts of the apartment just incase he needed them.

Kyoshi wasn't even noticed as he came in. Dusk was asleep, clutching the blankets to her as she slept peacefully. A whimper came from her showing that maybe her dreams weren't as peaceful as they should be.
Sighing, Rave shook his head. "No, thank you though, Joker." Kalore was now concerned, "What's going on?" "I don't know. Alice called me, panicked. She said that it wasn't something to worry about too much, nothing to get anyone too involved, but that really just makes me worry more..." Eldin was confused. "I don't get it..." Kalore shook his head, "Sure you don't wa-" "No. I'll be fine." He held up his phone. "If you get worried, call." Shadows took him to where Alice was though, stopping all questions.
"...He has a phone?" Kalore smirked and took out his from his bow pack which was in the corner of the room next to Eldin's things, "Yup. Only four people have the number. Me, Alice, Dusk, and Zai-...Okay, only three people..."

Kyoshi got out dressed in sweat pants and a shirt. He went over to the bed, climbing in gently so he didn't wake Dusk up and just as gently, tugged her to him. He brushed his lips over her forehead and relaxed.
Joker nodded and stared at Kalore. "Three people? That is freaking awesome! I wish I had that many people who had my number. That way I wouldn't have too many headaches." "Who would want to call you Joker?" Joker narrowed his eyes at the demon who he calls brother. "The same reason people would never call you." He said. Monty shook his head because no one knew about Lech harassing him, not even Gambler.

Kalore glanced over to Monty at that, knowing that there was someone who called the demon, but he knew better than to comment on it. Sighing, he put away his phone. "Rave had two phones, and will probably ask for two here or get one himself. One for business, the one that has all the numbers and stuff, but the other, the one he has now, for just people he's interested in talking to." Eldin gave him a deadpan looked, "Wait...he wants to talk to his annoying fanboy?" Kalore smirked, "What? Jealous?"
The kiss on her forehead brought some form of peace to Dusk's dreams as she smiled softly, hugging the man close to her as she kept on sleeping. Looked like Kyoshi was back and safe. Good.

Joker laughed at Eldin and Kalore. These two were positively funny. "You both are a riot! Now, you must be tired Kalore. I can get you a room on the other floors. For both of you. You have been through hell." He said with a teasing tone and looking at Monty. Monty shrugged and stood up, taking his plate away to be washed. Joker thanked him. "So how about it?" He asked the elves.
Gambler looked through the box of papers from Kyoshi and started to file those and everything else that needed that while she was talking to Bank on the speaker phone from her desk. That why she could have her hands free. Everything in the shake down went smoothly and so he reopened the borders of the city without trouble. Thankfully.

Kalore acted dramatically, "I have been through hell! It was so horrible!" He faked crying but then just stood up straight and smiled, "I'll take any room you guys have. Just put Eldin outside, he could use it as training or something." Eldin growled, "Hey!" Kalore shrugged, "What? It's the truth..."
Stepping into the room, Rave raised a brow at Alice as she came up to him and hugged him, but soon he was worried. His shirt was wet. "Are you crying?" Alice didn't say anything for a while, but rave looked around. Ali and James were in bed, but Kai was there, his head in his hands. "What's wrong?" Alice kept crying, Kai just shook his head and Rave could see that there was something in his eyes. Was that fear? Talon was the one that stepped forward. "Ziggy is gone."

Monty finished washing his dish and looked at the elves. "If you go down stairs to the floor below, you can stay there. Gambler had these floor's remodeled to have mulitple rooms and bigger space for a group to stay in. I suggest you take the stair's since you might live through hell in the elevator." He said, drinking more water.
Joker laughed. "Behave both of you. Go ahead and rest easy. We will be standing watch for our boss to see if she gets back safe. Something for Rave. Okay?" "There is also spare clothes in the closets in the apartment down stairs. Use cold water to take the dye out Kalore. You look frightening with it on." Monty commented and went further into the kitchen. Joker laughed again.

Eldin snickered but Kalore pouted, "Awe...I thought that my hair looked amazing like this..." It did, and even Monty would have to admit it, but Kalore didn't like it at all really. He liked his blond hair, but he also liked being a pest. Waving dramatically to everyone, he exited like the queen everyone made fun of him for being. Eldin rolled his eyes but then followed. "We'll find a room... And yeah, I'll avoid the elevator..." As he walked away, the boy muttered, "I'd kill myself if I was stuck with that p***k..." And the door shut.
"What?!" Rave listened as Talon spoke of Ziggy just vanishing in front of them just a little after Dusk had left. None of them knew what happened, but Kai tried to track him. When he failed, Talon went after him, finding one of their old friends, Mist, but he was busy with some woman. After talon got him to help, not even the animagus knew where their friend was. In a last attempt, Alice called Rave. "I don't know what to do...Any ideas?" Sadly, no one had one.

"If only you knew about him..." Monty said in his language softly, knowing that no one would know what he was saying and went out of the door as well, taking the other set of stairs down to his floor. He was a few floors below everyone's where it was nice and peaceful. He walked in, slamming the door shut and going to his bedroom and layed down with a sigh.
Joker became the mother hen in Gambler's own apartment, and put the boys to work in cleaning the whole thing which would have been a hard thing for one person alone.
Gambler finished half of the filing and still had a long way to go. Only while in the silence and peace of her office. She had this feeling that all wasn't peaceful in her city, again. Maybe it had to do with the thought of some remaining rogue angels that was going to kill Kyoshi while he slept. That would suck because they were really close like brother and sister than what they let other's believe. Shaking that feeling aside, she put on some music to keep her moving because she had a billion other things to do in that office. "This sucks."

Finding a room on the sixth floor, Kalore smiled as he entered, sighing as the room looked nicer than the one he was just in back home. Shutting the door, he went to the bed and sat down, reaching into his pocket and taking out the pill bottle. The memory of Monty's reaction to that making him surprised. "I wonder why he hated it so much..."
"Listen, I can ask Gambler for some ideas...not make a search but looking for it, okay?" Talon nodded. "I don't know where he went...But it's making me worried. Ziggy's always done what he wanted, disappeared and all that, but never like that." Alice had finally stopped crying but was still holding onto Rave tightly. He nodded, "I'll go back to Gambler...talk to her." They all nodded and he sighed, once again gone and showing up in the kitchen. "Well f*ck..."
