"Esther...." The Crusnik aburptly faded and Abel sat there shaking holding ehr close. "Lets go home..." He looked up and started seeing Ion. "Ion...I..." he looked down ashamed. "I'm sorry you had to see that."

Ion shuttered slightly fighting to regain his coming vanish leaveing behind in its place the Terran priest he had come to have known.
The shock still thick in his mind as he looked him over, what had happened just then .What was that. Ion cleared his throat an odd memory he barely rememberd surfacing at their last in counter with Radu, but he was not sure of the connection.'' Wha...what was that?'' he asked nearing Abel slowly being careful.
Esther stirred, wincing against the mind numbing pain of her body, her breathing alborred as she forced her eyes closed her head pounding with the odd humming vibration that seemed to spread through her body, causing her to shake as sweat beaded upon her forehead. Her heart rate increasing drastically.
The nanites and the poison seemed to be struggling in her system. The drug given to her by Cain had been an odd mixture of deluded Methuselah plasma along with an unknown beings blood, witch fought striking against the nanties trying to reject it from her blood stream.
While the nanites ate at the plasma cells and Esther's own ,her body struggling to adjust as Esther struggled to remain in the waking world.
The voices buzzing about her, only a few she could make out. Ion, whom sounded fearful for some reason, sister Rosa calling out someones name. Ivan she believed it to be. Father Tres and one she knew all to well.
Father Nightroad...
But there was something wrong, even her body in its pained state she could feel him shaking. She had seen him sad, even crying but shaking. Worry clung to her as she roced her eyes open, only peaces of Emory of what happened filling her mind. Why was Father Nightroad shaking.
''F..Father?'' she asked weakly resting a calmly hand upon his cheek. ''Wh..ats...wrong..are..you..hurt...?" She was concerned that the priest had became injured or sick.

"Not hurt Esther....worried...rest...I will find a cure for this mess, i promise...I won't let Cain hurt you again...." he glanced at Ion."The mark of my sins, Excellency...a deadly gift that was forced on me at a young age."
Tres watched emotionlessly having repaired up to 60%. He gently held Ivan, his monitors keeping a careful eye on the boy.

(Ha ha have not brought Lenne into this for a while)
Lenne had been away seeking out Father Petros and fathr Fransisco about the presnce of a vampire nun within the Holy Vaitcan when word came through on all that had happened. She had been posted now outside Catrina's door for the last few hours waiting for knews.
When it finally came, without permisson she sprung onto the Iron Maiden and headed out for Cain's little hide out as well. Leapin g off a before the Ship could fullly land she ran inside kneeling instantly at Abel's side.
''Father! Are you alright! Oh God SIster Esther what the hell did that monster do to you!'' she snarled before turning to look at Ion, Asta and Rosa.
A glare of hate shini within them. ''What the hell are these god foresaken beasts doing here!" she snarled hand going to her sword as she stood, glaring at each one before her eyes came to rest on Rosa whom sat Tres's side, the andoird daring to hold a vampire child to insure he reamined alive!
''You!'' she snarled marching over to Rosa her hand grabbing her by the coller. ''This was your doing! Do not diny it vampire! You blood sucking demon! I saw you with my own eyes poison Sistr Esther!'' Her grip tighted. as she reached for her sword aiming it to her neck.
''You will die for treason, and the rest of you will to if you do not leave!"' she looked to Asta and Ion. Then to Tres.
''Fathr! How dare you help that vampire child! You are betraying the Vaitcan by touching such filth KILL HIM!''
---------------------------
Cain merely gave a sigh of slight concern and annoynce at his presnet perdicerment. His one loyal servent, the one person he truly needed right now knocked out and parailzed by the silver.
Was this some kind of sick joke, he was uselsess at the moment! Yet something inside of him ,prehaos the damn beast whom awoken had taken pitty on him.
Damn!
And here he had thought it was a blessing as the memoreis of his other half filled his mind, now he was not so sure.

Abel rose silently.'No she did not. You should not run around making baseless accusatiuons of something you know nothing of!" His eyes narrowed and he growled.'Contra Mundi did this to Esther..i was there the whole time! If it werent for that child I would have died!!!"
Asta glared coldly. "My tovarish speaks truth."
Abel smiled thinly. "I'm fine...thanks to my nanites and blood memory."
----
Isaak stirred and managed to push out the bullet with a cry of pain. "master.....Please.I tried restraining him!" Isaak was fearful of Cain's temper, though the two had known each other for a long time.

'A mark of his sins long palced upon him long ago..'
For once Ion did not know how to respond as he stood there silently stunned watching Abel for a short time, unti lthe insulting words of Lenne enterd his ears. A low angerd growl sounding in his throats.
''How dare you!'' he cried not hearing as Abel spoke.
''We did nothing to them! Abel and Esther are my freinds how dare you make such akusastions without thinking!''
Rosa on the other hand said no words to defend herself, only hung her head in shame. ''Shes right Father Nightroad..'' she whispers softly. ''I placed the drug into Esther's tea thats why she collasped when speaking to you in Caterina's office, but I had no chouice if I did not that monster would have killed my son.'' she whisperd looking to the boy Tres thankfully held.
Esther though still a bit ofogged could make out things that where going on. Guilt at making Abel worry clear on her face as she whisperd a small sorry. Her eyes tiredly closing for a moment as she rested, only to open to glare at Lenne .
Struggling in anger to sit up gasping for breath as she struggled slightly in Abel's arms after the Priest had spoke. ''No! Sister .....Rosa had nothing to do wit h it! You have no right to kill them when they..'' she paused for breath her voice a weak whisper. ''did nothing wrong...please Sister Lenne, for now.. do ..dn nothing rash to her.. I am sure.. there was a good reason right sister..'' she whisperd before her eyes closed slipping into a deep state of unconicuessnes her body to tired to make anymore movements.

"Enough!' Abel snapped and rose wearily stumbling."Damn.... I used too much...." He forced himself to start walking and callapsed suddenly falling to his knees.'Ion.....I need a huge favor....I won't ask this again....but...my nanites are killing me and the blood of a methuselah is the only thing that can stop them."
Asta stared in shock. This priest was the missing Crown Prince. 'Ion! Hes Alexi Vradica, elder brother to the Divine Empress!!!!" He hissed at him.
tres gazed at abel.'Degrade at 34%....Needs methuselah blood to heal. Crusnik danger rising. If he hits 90% degrade he will die and no amount of medical help can save him."

The young Meuthsualh's eyes once more in shock at Asta words as he stared from the elder Metushal to Abel . ''Wait you mean! He the priest is!'' His eyes widend even more, after all that time of traveling, he had never known. He even inaulted Abel the first time he had met him, and the preist had not grown angry.
And all this time he had been, it was like with Seth meeting a small girl he thought nothing more then a tea seller and a medcial student only to discover she was the Empress, surely he should not be surpised. But he was, the bumbling Priest whom fell in the Fountin and seemed to be srowning at his grandmothers was the lost prince, more then that this powerful of a being.
'But hes also your freind.' A voice reminded him deep within his mind, kaing his eyes narrow in worry as flashes of memory filled.
'Hes always been there...he and Esther even..even more the Radu..'' 'A wince coverd his face bfore worry replaced it and he rushed to Abel side helping to prop the priest up, looking startled as he listned to Tres before turning back
''Here .'' he spke grabing a near by sword and slicing a bit of his neck. '' As one freind to another take as much as you need, I am not bound to sit by and watch another freind die.'' He looked worriedly at Esther as well as he spoke, she looked to pale, paler then a human should.
''Will she be alright?' he asked turning to Tress seeing that the android seemed to be able to read life.
(I hae always thought res had a bit of emtion am I right Jarem?}

'Affirmative." Tres said sotly.
Abel took only what he needed and closed the wound with a sweep of his tongue. "Thank you Ion...Seth will surely be grateful..." Abel frowned.'Lets get outa here...fast...I have a feeling Cain will come back for Esther."

Ion winced slightly as Abel fed, but reelaxed after he waas through hish and touching where the wound had been in surpise. It had helaed faster then normal. Blinking slightly the boy nodded a bit before his eyes narrowed and he gave a nod .''Right.'' he said standing quickly.
As h e stood looking around his eyes landing upon Rose, heh ad met her not long before she had came to the Vatican with Abel and Esther, then to the boy. The turned to loo kat Esther ,leaning forward to offer to carry her.
Rosa reamined sient her head down in shame as she looked to the floor saying nothing for the longest time till a low moan could be heard
Ivan stirred from his place in Tres arms, pain runing through the smal child's body from the hole witch ad been blown through his arm. Wincing he lbinked up at Tres a moment looking confused before looking over to his mother. ''Momma..' he mutter d wincing before looking around, he already had met Tres. ''Who are those people..'' he sounded scared.

Ion remained silent as he carried Esther heading for the ship. His eyes looking abot still wide and alert incase someone attacked arms closed around Esthers body supporting her fully. Even if she was taller then him she was light as could. Be.
Every so often his gaze darted to Abel, a serious look on his face as he pulled back. Sense learning this was Seth's brother he had no intetion to let his freind come to danger. Concern for Abel and Eather was clear as he looked back and forth from the two of them. When suddenly he felt Esther shutter in his arms a low grao nescaping her lips. Worry appearing on his face he looked down quickly. Watching her closer as she did it again, she was still deathly pale and looked like she was in pain.
''Esther?'' he asked in a worried tone shaking her slightly. 'Are you ok? Can you hear me!''
Esther opend her blue eyes for a moment staring with lifeless orbs at the young Methusalah Earl as they flashed red before slamming them shut a yell of pain coming from her lips as she begin to striggle trashing around in his arms. The nanites within her blood causing wave of pains to rush through her at rapind speed, feeding and fighting of the poison in her blood.
Some dying while others over came, it was painful the changes causing her heart rate to speed up quickly at a dangerous rate.
Ion painced lowerd her to the ground trying to keep a grip on her though she struggled. [color+green]''Esther! Esther!'' he called shaking her trying to bring her out of it. Wincing at her heart rate. His sensetive hearing picking it up easily as he looked to Abel struggling to keep hold of her. ''Whats wrong with her?'' [/colorhe deamanded voice painced as she cried out again.
Each movement pulling energy she needed. She could hardly even breathe dew to it.

Abel glanced at hr and quickly took her back into his arms. "Ion, she is going through Crusnik conversion. If her body rejects the nanites she will die." He slashed open a wrist. "Drink Esther, It's the only way to save yourself....you have to become a Crusnik..." Abel swore softly under his breath. "Cain, I will kill you if its the last thing I do."
Eyes flashed to red as The mysterious being took over Abel and began signing softly to Esther, a soothing tune designed to help young Crusniks tolerate conversion. "Ion...I beg your forgiveness at Carthago....it was I who stole your blood to increase my own power."[/color]

Esther let out a low groan sweat beating down her head as she was take by Abel, her body still shaking her face ghost pale fire hot as fire from a rising fever as she whimperd. She no still struggled but seemed slightly soothed buy the tune yet, out cold unable to hear Abel's words itself but the tune was almost instictive.
Passing right through her body. Esther's breathing coming in pain filled gaps causing her chest to rise in heavy pants. A raddling noise coming from them as she groaned her face twisiting in pain as she tried to turn her face away, the blood was intoxicating smell but she was hurting her stomach twisting into nots. Before she releaxed her eyes beging to close. All she wanted was sleep.
Darkness thats all it was to much, her vitals slowing.
Ion could do nothing but stare for a moment at Abel;s words blinking at what he said. He had taken his blood before, why was he telling him this now. The Methusalsah did not know hwo to feel. Should he be angry? He swallowed eyes wide . Unsure of what to think.
He could barely even remeber that at all, he shook hish ead. He could nott be angry Abel needed it to survive, he was his freind he had to remember that. Besides he gave it freely just a while ago, it was not like he was trying to kill him. ''Dont apaoiglzie!"' he called out. ''Youre my freind, and the Empress's brother you needed to survive I woulfd willingly give it over and over so dont apoligize!''

The Crusnik swore softly, and pressed his wrist against her mouth. "Drink..its the only way to heal...." He gazed at Ion. "Over and over...you are brave young one. The ancient being felt only compassion for the two and let out a soft cry of anguish. "Aries help me..." he whispered. "Esther, please...for Nightroad's sake, you must help me complete the conversion. Don't fall asleep yet!"
Asta gazed at the trio and knelt. "Sire, allow me to replenish you."
The Crusnik nodded and while trying to get Esther to feed bit into Asta's wrist.
