V.C.
"I don't want anything else. LT, why are you so nervous? Did that idiot DK do something while I was in Dream Land?" I asked her, analyzing her reactions, and her body movement. She didn't seem to be very relaxed at all.
Then, in case she didn't want to answer the question, I gave her a way out of it. Something else to focus on that was bothering me. "Do we have to stay here? Actually, do I have to stay here? Or can I go back to the Pet Shop?"
I really wanted to go back there and ask the owner a few questions. And I needed to go contact a few old alliances. Maybe someone to see what the community knew about the DK, someone to tell me about whether anything really extraordinary had been happening, and someone to catch me up to speed on the happenings of the streets, as well as what I needed to be doing and what I should be doing. And I had a lot of people I could ask for information. After that, I had to glean out the truth, plan the visits, and gather up some people to watch the shop, maybe. Or maybe not. I don't want to be too obvious, and the less people around there, the safer it will be for everyone, whether they're human, demon, angel, or something else entirely.
