Of Seraphs and Apparations:

Chapter 18-Two down, two to go on the road of Vengence

"I wonder if they're dreaming of each other..."  Sill contemplated.  Zeke looked at her, and gave her a knowing smile.

"They are." 

Amon's dream was foggy, clouded.  Desiree reached her arms out to him, and he her.  Then, there was the glass between them, and Amon banged upon it viciously, striking with all his strength, the glass cracking under it.  Then, a blade peirced his spine, and Sae and Micheal were there, laughing.  Then, a mysterious figure...the figure who killed him was taking Desiree out, and then, he killed her in the most gruesome of manners.  Amon cried out in rage, as he fought, bodies landed in front of him.  Then, Desiree stabbed him, and his family...they decapitated him as one. 

Amon's eyes shot open.  Sweat was beating down his forehead.  He wiped his brow with his hand, and gasped for air, air that wasn't needed.  Zane was resting.  Carmen was asleep.  Amon got up, and walked silently.  His eyes loomed ahead at the abandoned village.  He heard another voice...another cry of agony.  He approached, his eyes going wide as he saw Raziel tossing and turning in his sleep.  Raziel jumped at the footstetps.  "Mother!"  He cried out.  Raziel jumped to his feet as he fought off the last wave of sleep and saw Amon.  He growled.  "I could kill you..."  Raziel said.

"I know."  Amon replied flatly and sarcastically.

"But I won't.  It seems we've both been awaken.  So I make an offer.  We spare the fighting for now....and I tell you where the next victim for you is..."  Amon nodded, and sighed.  He wasn't much in the mood for a fight.

"Deal."

Raziel nodded.  "The next victim is named Farouse.  He's located about twenty five miles of here to the west.  He thinks he's a big shot in the underworld, but that's what happens when you're a moron.  He's....dangerous though.  Be on your guard."  Amon nodded, and was off. 

He approached Carmen, and held her in his arms as he fell back asleep.  Raziel sighed once Amon was gone. 

"You can come out now you know." Raziel said softly.

The chains jangled, and Yuri stuck her tongue out.  "Never any fun are you?" 

"No."

Yuri sighed.  "You know....Damos is pretty pissed you haven't killed the two of them yet."

Raziel growled.  "I don't have to be the Oracle to know that Yuri.  But...i don't know anymore.."

The two continued to talk.

The next morning, Amon and Carmen were walking.  Carmen looked at Amon.  "Hey...whaddya think we're gonna find?"

Amon's eyes sparkled black as the Crow flew overhead.  "Vengence, Carmen.  Vengence." 

[A little short, but that's how it is sometimes.]
