"...A life without love-" Elizabeth Eberstark Unable to contain herself any longer, Beth’s arms slide around his neck and she buries her face in the collar of his shirt, “that is one of the nicest things you’ve ever said to me, thank you.”She pulls away from him and gazes at the embodiment of Justice before her, staring into his eyes as if the answer to all of the questions she has after that bizarre event lay hidden behind his tired orbs somewhere, “Who can we go to that would have any intelligence on other Demon Possessed… I still say Frank might know something.”Trembling hands move to cup her face, the vampiress surprised to find the flesh there moist, and she smiles sheepishly. Elizabeth hadn’t realized it, but when the smell of burning flesh had wafted into her nostrils she had burst into tears, so sure of her close friends impending doom. Chuckling she wipes the salty remnants from her flesh and addresses the question screaming in her mind, “what the heck just happened anyhow? What was that blue light? And yes, it’s about time you started seeing logic in my ask questions first and act later approach. Why is it that everybody wants to jump into things guns blazing all the time.” Elizabeth’s hand slides across her fellow Kindred member’s back and she helps prop Lucas upright by wedging her shoulder under his armpit. The two of them wobble out the door and down the stairs with surprising ease, the Vampire’s inhuman strength making bearing her friend’s weight effortless. When they make it out the door they are both caught off guard at finding Fide waiting for them. He places his hand on Beth’s shoulder and she cannot control the urge to flinch away from his touch, her body still fueled with adrenaline and her nerves on edge. However, she immediately relaxes when she realizes how she is reacting and does her best to give the agent for good a warm inviting smile, “glad to see you changed your mind Fide! Sorry if we seem a bit on edge, but something just happened…. I don’t know what just happened, but I doubt it was good.”Emerald orbs turn to Lucas, the light in those brilliant eyes fading at seeing the pain still etched into his features. She sighs weakly, “But I doubt Lucas has it in him to make it to the club, we need to get you to your place and then I can go to Soul Haven with Fide and let Adalrich know what’s going on, maybe he’ll have something to say about all this….” "Is like a tree without blossoms or fruit."

"That does sound like an excellent idea Lass... You lead I'll follow..."
The spirit of Faith is much stronger than his host or the host just allows it to come and go as it pleases, but those white gems continue to blaze blightly.
"And you know I can probably contact you easier than she can brother. You really should get some rest."
He turns his attention back to the vampiric woman and his eyes lock on her hair.
"Now is that natural or do you color it?"

Lucas remains propped up by his friend as she converses with Patrick. He breathes a sigh of relief as he sees the man he most wanted to talk to and he gives an imperceptible glance that only he notices. The Kindred Warrior sends out a thought with the help of the Justice Spirit to Patrick and the Faith entity that resides within him, aware of the connection that they share. Elizabeth remains blissfully ignorant of this exchange as she continues to support Lucas.
(To Fide) Brother, I will need your aid in the coming days. There was a particularly powerful demon in there and it now resides inside me. Justice was able to contain it but it will escape sooner rather than later and I will be incapacitated. As such, I will need your help to get this demon out of me. I will meet you tomorrow night at 9pm outside Trinity Church.
Lucas tries to keep his face neutral as he sends his message to Patrick. The Vampiress takes Lucas’ seemingly lethargic nature for the after effects of the Demon possession and nods to her gratefully. The Kindred member removes his arm from her shoulder and allows his legs to bear his weight. He stumbles forwards briefly but he is able to find his balance. Lucas quickly removes a piece of paper and a pen from a pocket and quickly writes a list on it. He then hands this over to Elizabeth and she looks at it questioningly before looking out into the street and hailing down a taxi.
Thank you for everything Elizabeth, you’re a true friend. Could you do me one last favour before I return to the apartment. Can you get these items for me and bring them around later this evening? That demon may come back and that list of items may help me resist it.
Lucas gives her a wan smile and waits for her reply. The taxi pulls up alongside the curb and waits for the Kindred Warrior to open the door.

Patrick's ears ring for a moment before he slightly nods in the direction of Lucas, a silent agreement being struck. He can feel the demon laying dormant, but at the same time is not completely knowing of how strong it's grip or even what type of demon it could be. He opens the door for the frail vessel of his spiritual brother before sending a message of his own.
(To Lucas) "Have faith brother... I know just what to do for the most part... But you must remember nothing comes without a price... Not even from me."
Patrick takes Lucas from Elizabeth gently and helps him into the cab with a soft smile on his face.
"You should remember to ask for help every once and awhile my friend... You are NOT a one man army nor is your form indestructible. Remember that."
Those bright white orbs burn like a flame as he turns back to Liz.
"Shall we go see this friend of yours?"
