The change of seasons

(Remembering the tip he had giving the stranger about the bar tavern at the end of the road. Exhausted from the running)

"Man this this place seems further than I thought it was, but then again when was the last time I went to this place?"

(At one moment in a walking paste, catching his breathe, his ears would pick up something)

"I would have sworn that I just heard a window shatter, must be this part of the place I'm in. I hope that I'm pretty close to this...place."

(The feeling of a dozen miles still along the way, he trudges on)

"I should have called a cab."

(Close to the end of the road, he notices a huge carriage passing by, the enormous steeds that pull it are covered with a very fine coat of hair, all black with a white diamond on the heads)

"That's got to be the luxury right there, I wonder who's in it?"

(Coming to a building with a broken sign near the entrance, he looks around and sees that the place is closed)

"Oh come on! Let me in!."

(No answer is returned. It seemed like something was off to him)

"Something seems out of place here, I know its closed, but why does it seem like someone should still be here? As if it was deserted."

(He takes a look around the front and walks back to the broken sign where a small weathered bench was placed. Sits down to think, or wait. Places his golden staff against the weathered wooden pole of the sign)

"Well, what now?"

(Something catches his eye about the sign, he could not read the language, for it was unknown to him, but the symbols near it was what caught him the most. One of them looked like a diamond, a white diamond)

"A white diamond, wait! The steeds to that carriage, which way did it go?"

(Taking off in the opposite direction of the tavern, he spares no time to catch his breathe in the long run)

[being escorted by one of the guards to the lounge area of the mansion]

[Guard] "please make yourself at home miss, im sure that madame Leslie will be with you shortly."

[taking a seat next to the beautiful marble fireplace] "thankyou, i will wait for her here."

[as time passes, she takes out the piece of broken glass from the pouch and examines it closely. from another pouch she pulls out what looks to be a scanner like device. a green ray of light emits from the device and scans the piece of glass thoroughly from top to bottom] "now what do we have here?"

[the device retrieves information about the piece of glass, but more importantly the drops of the coagulating blood that lay upon it] "i knew it! it is you! i know that madame person must know something about him."

[places the device and the piece of glass back into the pouches]

[an upright and very frustrated man walks towards her. he is wearing a gold and glimmering elegant like dress. another long and slim cigarette braced within his mouth. a guard comes to him and with pleasure, lights the end of the cigarette]

[Madame Leslie] "Lenn... right? would you like something to drink?"

"i could use a drink, but not as much as answers"

[Madame Leslie] "you are a persistent little girl arent you? please tell me first why are you here and why my client and i are so important to you."

[she stares at the fireplace and keeps her hands warm, looks to madame Leslie] "i am sorry for causing so much inconvenience, i know that you must have had a rough night. i am pretty tired and wish to get some rest, we may continue this conversation in the morning or something if you dont mind."

[Madame Leslie raises his brows to her and then with the snap of her fingers a near standing guard with a tray in his hands comes to her summon] "very well, we shall continue this later, please get some rest and enjoy your stay here."

[she is escorted to a room on the second floor. a very large bed with a canopy and everything seemed to be either in gold or silver. amazed by the sight of this room alone. she walks to the window and looks through the thick curtains, on the outside revealed a huge, beyond words garden, with a large fountain placed in the middle]
"i know i should have gotten it over with with, but it can wait. for now i should get some rest and get back to the inn before Dae-Jung realizes that i havent been there. soon as possible, i need to get some answers so that i can find this...ghost."

(The deep voice of a tall man echos the long halls of an abandon church)
- "I will be the one to bring order on those that have aided this parasite."

(Men high above, up into the balconies of the inner church stare down at their loyal subject) - "Good, good. You will seek out this parasite and dispose of him."

(The tall man takes a knee and bows his head to his superiors)
- "I will do as you wish. I will dispose of this one and everyone that has come in contact with him."

(Men high above) - "You are to retrieve his sword, the cross, and the medallion as well."

-"Yes my masters."
(Raising up to both his feet, he bows and walks away out of the abandon church. Outside, a black vehicle awaits and he steps in.)

(Young man with silver hair sitting next to him) - "So what did they say?'

- "You very well know that I can't release that answer Grim."

(Grim) - "Fine, it doesn't concern me, what do you want me to do Victor?"

- "I want you to continue doing what you do best. Torture those that are against us. Find out if any of them know anything about what happened at the Tavern. I want to know where they are."

(Grim) - "Those rebellious people are not going to last long, even if I found a way to torture them all night and all morning."

- "Did you find out anything from that street corner parasite?"

(Grim) - "Only that there was a carriage leaving the site and a boy at the same place later afterwords."

- "A boy? I'll see to this one myself."

(The black vehicle approach a large complex with security all around, inside and out. The two men stepped out and departed ways after the vehicle had come to a stop within the garage part of the complex. The one known as Grim took off to an elevator)
(Grim) - "Have fun!"

-"Like wise."

(Heading to another elevator on the opposite side of the garage, a different one from the one that Grim had taken. This one was grey and black, while the other one was all silver. It took him up to an office. As the dividing elevator doors parted open, he stepped out to a room with a man sitting at the desk)

(Man at desk) - "Did you receive your orders?"

- "I did, I am to eradicate every parasite that has or may be aiding this one."

(Man at desk) -"then suit up, take a couple men and move out."

- "very well."

(Stops for a moment and turns back to the man at the desk) - "Tell me, as an ex-member of the Xias committee, why did you leave those that summon me to the abandon church?"

(Man at desk) - "I have my reasons, now leave."

(Leaving the man and the office, heading to a locker-like room. Pulls out a long-barreled weapon, but it wasn't quite a weapon that shot projectiles. It had a blade sealed upon it. He placed it in a large holster, specifically made just for it and strapped it to his back. A black, loose long-sleeve shirt was all he had. As if the weather alone could not hold him down. Leather belts with buckles wrapped around his waist and the baggy, leather-like pants he was wearing. The Boots he had been wearing seem to hold a sharp ejectable object to it. He soon step out and began his hunt)
