Joey listened to everything that Aria was saying with concern on his mind. When he heard that her master had information, he shot up to attention.
He smiled ans kissed her gently before looking straight into her eyes. "I couldn't hate you..." he said before he wiped a small trickle of blood from her lips. "Come with me to the subway and tell Tokeru whatever you know...I'm sure the entire chapter will be grateful" he said softly.

She remembered Tokeru was one of the people that pulled out a U.V gun and shot at her so she began to shake. She was outnumbered Vampires 2 1/2 (the half being half Edith?) and all those hunters. "Um..." she said feebly after kissing him back. "I don't think they want me to be there." she answered hiding the real truth. She was afraid of the hunters "'Specially not Tokeru. I'm just um..."immortal scum" compared to the others I couldn't..." she said trying to convince him to let her stay. "And I couldn't get you introuble." that part was true. She didn't want him to lose all his friends because of her.

Joey sighed at her words. he hated when she referred to herself as scum, for she was the greatest thing in his life right now. "Then I'll make them listen" he said confidently. "Make them realize that you're more than that...the same way I realized it" he said softly, gazing deeply into her eyes with genuine love and care.

She smiled at his kindness. "You're so wonderful." she sighed whispering softly.
Master... she whispered to herself.
"If you must." he said with a sigh. "But if you get caught and be named traitor it's no one's fault but your own and you'll have to pay for it." he said slightly threatening her.
Thank you master she answered. He was being so nice it really was weird...
She swallowed and turned her attention back to Joey. "Then...lead me to the subway." she said smiling. "I can't guaruntee you that his word is right. Like I said...it's just a suspicion on both of our parts." she muttered quickly. "I just hope they don't want to punish me for not telling them earlier." she hissed slightly.

Joey smiled before wrapping his arms around her and kissing her again. "It's the only reliable lead we have so far...and don't worry...I'll make sure nothing happens to you...come on" he said as he led her through the sewers towards the subway.

She smiled as she returned his embrace and followed after.
Don't worry. I trust you

Tokeru was relieved to see Hope come with clothes for both of them, unfortunatly since he had no armor, the clothes would be all but useless for protection, but it would serve to cover himself.
With a grin to Edith he grabbed the clothes meant for him. "Lets continue this later." he whispered.
Then he unwrapped the towel from around him and left it on her. Quickly putting a pair of dress pants on he reached for the shirt, which was a dress shirt. He cut a slit in the back for his wings, then put it on.
"Hope, where did you get these clothes?" he asked, wondering at how she had gotten a dress for Edith, a wedding gown at that.
"The only store within running distance open was a wedding store, so i just bought whatever i could, now stop whining and be glad you have clothes."
Tokeru sighed, and took the jacket, cutting slits for his wings, he put it on. He the clipped his sword belt on around his waist. He stood there, in complete groom outfit, expect holding his scythe and wings flaring out the back. "How do i look?"

She nodded with a grin, Tokeru was already heightening her spirits even though she had almost let the vampire control her. Sometimes Edith was bad for dwelling in the past, and at other times, she couldn't for more than a few minutes. "Sure thing," she whispered back with a small wink, "Angel. Later when we aren't going to be told to get a room." She chuckled softly.
As Tokeru quickly put his dress pants on, she watched him with more than mild amusement. Watching him put his pants on reminded her of the chicken dance somehow. What made her actually burst though was she imagined him in a top hat with a spectacle and he looked absolutely hilarious.
"You look," she said, still giggling, holding her towel to her, "fine. Just don't put a top hat and spectacle on or I'll never make it."
When she calmed down and realized it was her turn to change, she took the dress and stared at it for a moment. It reminded her of Reno, what he had asked of her, what she had rejected. She wondered where Reno was, if he was alright, hopefully Mauser hadn't captured him ...
As she drifted into her own thoughts, she absent-mindedly put the dress on, managing to somehow put it on perfectly without paying close attention. However, the dress did not fit the greatest as it was tight in .... areas. She then held her hands out and did a three-sixty, pretending to model her gown. "Wellah!"

Kim pulled out a ski mask and put it on to disguise herself in case it was
someone she didn't want to be recognized. She figure that whoever it was
would likely attempt to cut off any line of retreat and the subway was pretty much the way to go. She took 5 Stalkers and headed down the subway to check things out

Tokeru immediatly felt an urge to sweep her off her feet and whisk her to the nearest church/chapel. She looked perfect.
"I can honestly say, you couldn't look any more beautiful than you are right now, for today anyway, tommorow you will be even more beautiful to me."
He really did want to just kneel down and propose to her. She just looked so beautiful, the dress accentuated her curves and did make her look like a model.
He rushed forwards and kissed her deeply.

Edith actually forgot the formal wear for a brief instant but, of course, remembered upon seeing Tokeru. Somehow, seeing him in a groom outfit and her being in a brides dress just felt like a special moment. It felt as though they were getting married, well, they looked like they were.
"I will be," she said with a smile, sincerely, "more beautiful because of you. You're the one that makes me beautiful, My Angel. I love you, and the next day I shall love you more and the next even more. But I don't think I could love you more. It's so confusing." She smiled to him, slightly sheepishly, but more lovingly than anything.
All she was aware of was the fact that her dress was way too tight. However, her bond with Tokeru weeded out his thoughts and feelings for her, and she felt her stomach just burst with butterflies upon his thoughts. He wanted to propose to her? Would he someday? Would they take that step that Edith had been unsure about with Reno yet she was positive with Tokeru?
I love you Tokeru. And if you ever did ask me to spend the rest of my life with you, I don't even need to tell you my answer.
Him running towards her and burning her with his scorching hot kiss was so wedding-like too. She, naturally, kissed him back, taking a hold of his shoulders. She wanted to spend the rest of her life with this man. She wanted nothing more, not even her exceeding want to be human overpowered her want to be with him forever, no her need to be with him forever.

Tokeru reveled in the kiss, but stopped after a few moments.
"Well" he said, looking her in the eyes. "Since it appears we have lost our place of living, perhaps after this is all over, you would consider living with me again?"
He didn't want to say the last words, but his overwhelming love for her brought him to say so. "As not only my love and friend, but as my wife?"
He wished he'd have planned something, but this was completly spontaneous. He was just so in love with her, that all the words came out in a rush. He got down on one knee, and held her hand. "I love you so much that words can't express it, I want to spend the rest of my life with you, i can't imagine a single day where I am not with you, by your side. Every moment that I am away from you is anguish to my soul. Edith Jackson, will you be my wife?"

Edith also savoured their tiny moment and when he pulled away she was bummed. But she was captured by anticipation, wondering if he was perhaps thinking of taking her up on her offer.
"I'd never," she said with a grin, "have to consider that. I'd be waiting there for you whether you willed it or no."
When he breathed the last words, she actually looked at him in disbelief. "Of course," she answered without hesitation, "I would live with you as not only your love and friend, but as your wife, My Angel."
What touched her most was the fact that this was spontaneous and on the spot, yet he clipped her, right on target and he brought tears of joy to her now hazel eyes, her original eye color. Her hand actually trembled as she listened to him, knowing what was coming as soon as he'd gone down onto his knee. She actually didn't hear the words he spoke, she only heard herself screaming out with uber bliss and the blood pulsating through her dead body, making her feel alive. "I," she said through her tears, barely able to say it, "will gladly be your wife, Tokeru, my love, my friend, my fiance'. Forever and for always."
She then came crashing to her knees, now his height, wrapping her arms around his neck, her cheek resting against his. Some of her tears dribbled from her cheek to his, but she didn't care. Right now all she wanted was to be close to her fiance', her love, her life.

Tokeru immediately realized just how nervous he was, he hadn't had time to think of what he was saying, so he didn't realize that he was nervous, but now that it had happened, he felt his hands tremble and his knees shake.
"Edith, my temptress, my wife, i will love you forever, even past death."
When the collapsed down to her knees, and hugged him, he was so relieved and happy that she had said yes. He didnt know what to say, and so he just knelt there, holding her, letting her cry on his cheek. He was so happy, he didn't know what to say, or do.
He finally remembered the ring, the dragon ring on his hand. The ring that his mother had given him when he was a child. He had always worn it on his pinkie, since it was too small to wear on any other finger. He slid it off his hand, and picked up Ediths left. He slid the ring on her ring finger, and to his suprise and immense happiness, it fit perfectly.
