Emotions Legend
[quote][b]Asmodeus (Dec 04, 2001 06:24 p.m.):[/b] The library was large, but Mode knew where to look. The stairs spiralled up against the far wall to the second level, and he walked the rows between the bookcases slowly but deliberately, heading back towards the wall that composed the entrance on the first story. He tried not to think of how he knew she would choose a high spot, how unsurprised he was that she had chosen the library to conceal herself. He told himself it was because she knew Quistin wouldn't think to look for her here. [i]It had taken him only a few minutes to scale the bookcase and hide himself. No one had seen him come in, no one had seen him secret himself into this dark, dusty crawlspace, and that made him feel safe. His mind was still confused, but he felt clearer up here. He felt [/i]cleaner[i], more in control and less like he was about to commit some nameless atrocity...[/i] The back wall of the second level held large bookcases separated by small alcoves, and he stood at the intersection of this wall and the center row and listened. The room was quiet and empty, all noise muffled by the carpeting and the soundbreaks the bookcases created, but after only a few moments' pause, he turned slowly to the right and walked silently down the aisle. He stopped before the final alcove, sighed, knelt. He didn't want to stand over her. He could not see her from this angle, but she was there. Had he been blind and deaf, he could have found her as easily; the scent of blood - of Katera, and of blood - he knew it too well. He knew better than to pull a wild animal from its home without warning. Extending his left hand into the air before the alcove, palm up, he gave her choice. "Katera?" he inquired gently.[/quote]
