Traitors Embrace, Inhuman Creation

CH 5


Robin sat down heavy into the car seat, she knew Amon was staring at her from the corner of his eye but she didn’t care. Robin took her cell phone from her bag and dialed Seth’s number, he didn’t pick up. Amon could only listen to the one sided conversation over the phone, Robin saw Amon lean towered her trying to hear. Robin smiled “I remember you being a lot more stealthy; do you want to listen, I don’t mind… oh you do understand English right”? Amon nodded yes, Robin went back into her bag and took out an ear piece witch she gave to Amon he put it into his ear and waited. Robin dialed again and Seth picked up right away.


“That was fast Robin; he didn’t try and molest you or anything”? Seth asked. “No, he didn’t. I think I\'m almost disappointed. I do love putting him in his place. So what is the word from Gabby.”? Robin bit her lip expecting bad news. There was a pause from Seth “don’t be to upset Robin, but Linda and Max went to the hospital last night, since neither of them trust doctors especially since there suppose to be dead, Gabby went to calm them down.” Seth said it all very fast. Amon looked over to see if Robin was upset, she was but only slightly. “Oh that’s wonderful; I really wanted to be there. Any word on the babies yet?” Robin spoke like the fire had been restored in her heart again.

Amon started putting a few things together,*Linda and Max, those were the two missing witch hunter that supposedly died after crossing paths with Phoenix.* Amon could hear Seth laughing on the other line “how the hell did you know it was twins, no don’t tell me you creep me out enough as it is. But to answer your question Linda delivered two beautiful girls at 5: 30 this morning, and I don’t know the names. But now onto the bad news” Seth paused for affect. “Spill Seth”, Robin said quickly “well miss I have no patience, the twins of the house of Black are back….that rhymes” Seth finished with. Robin bit her cheek again, and her lip she was thinking, Amon saw that she did not look happy at all, “let me guess Julia let it slip to Marcus where I was, no more important whom I’m with at the moment” Robin pinched the bridge of her nose, with a heavy sigh “Seth, call Molly tell her to keep Adrian and Marcus, especially Marcus at home.” Robin spoke the demand coolly. “No problem, when you coming back anyway I’m bored stiff” to prove his point he yawned into the phone, Robin smiled “soon, talk to you later” Robin hung up the phone, Amon handed her the ear piece.

Not a minute later Amon stopped the car in front of Harries; he looked around for any familiar faces or cars before opening Robin’s door. Robin put one of the books in her bag and thanked Amon for opening her door. Amon guided Robin with his hand pressed softly against the small of her back; he didn’t notice he did it. “Are you hungry”? Amon asked; Robin grinned “I haven’t had anything to eat in days”, Amon was about to ask why when he heard Master Harry, saying thank the lord. “Oh Robin, I was so worried about you, you must be starving. Sit, sit you too I will be back shortly.” Before Master Harry left to prepare both of them lunch, he pushed Robin and Amon into a booth. Neither Amon nor Robin really cared that Harry had pushed them into the same side of the booth.

Robin took out her book and begun flipping the pages, not really reading but stopping every once in a while to study a page. Amon watched her in silence, enjoying her pleased look as she got further into the book. “There perfect” robin finally said, “What are they”? Amon asked knowing Robin wasn’t going to say there books. “These Amon are the last three in a series of ten, the only series left. Solomon had all the other copies burned about 500 years ago; I have been tracking them down the past 8 months.” Robin only stopped to cough into her hand “these ten books tell of a prophecy made over two thousand years ago, I’m hoping to find my answers in here and so far from what I have read in the others I won’t be left wanting”. Robin smiled an innocent, happy smile.


Amon raised a brow “Prophecy, of what nature”? Amon asked “oh, how to kill what can’t die, things like that” Robin said very general. Robin put the book away, signaling the end of that conversation. Robin grabbed a strand of her own hair and frowned when she saw the color. She sighed and let it go, “what causes your hair and eyes to change”? Amon asked mater of fact, Robin eyes grew large “my eyes are a different color”? she asked in disbelief “no, but earlier there was a thin halo of black in them” Amon said, to say that Robin looked worried was a under statement, she looked horrified “I didn’t realize” Robin said to no one in particular, Robin then was lost in thought, Amon caressed a strand of Robins hair between his fingers to get her attention, it worked famously. “oh sorry, my hair the eyes, that’s part of the infection Benicio gave to me, when I have a bad day, the hair is dark, when I have a god day its not so dark, but when I have a horrible day my eyes will change, the monster must have put his own blood on the knife he stabbed me with, it’s like re infecting me.” Robin subconsciously put her hand over the stab wound as she spoke.


Harry arrived with a table full of food, Amon stayed mostly quite allowing Robin and Harry to catch, about ten minutes into lunch Amon realized something Robin had been lying the entire time to Harry, not flat out lies, but she certainly skipped over many of what Amon was sure were juicy details. He didn’t blame her for lying to the man, why give him any unnecessary grief, he just hoped Robin would tell him the complete truth. Amon tuned back into the conversation just as Master Harry asked Robin a question, “Oh Robin that sounds wonderful, tell me what was your favorite place so far”? Harry asked completely thrilled to hear of Robins travels around the world, Robin didn’t even have think about it. “Scotland, I spent a month there with a lovely family, The Blacks were just so, I don’t know how to describe them, and they were like no people I have ever come across”. That caught Amon attention, * the Twins of the house of black, they have to be the same family* Amon thought, he didn’t like the fact Robin had spent a month with the two mentioned men*, Amon didn’t even think that the twins could be both Robins age, in a way if he did that would make it worse.


Harry continued on “is it a witch family”? “ well not all of them and there were quite a few, but more then were active witches, completely wonderful people, very protective of there family, I was thrilled when they accepted me into the family so quickly.” Unknown to Amon, but a certain American witch hunter had just popped her head into harries far some quick lunch, she stopped as soon as she saw Amon, sitting basically with his arm around some dark haired women, she almost died of shock when he head him laugh at something the women had said, all thoughts of lunch gone, Tish Green quickly hurried back to the STN-J with some very juicy gossip about Amon and his knew girlfriend. Tish was sure she had seen the women before just couldn’t place where.


Michael was typing at his computer, he looked at the clock, and he knew he should call Amon and check up, but thought he might be blowing his cover. * it wouldn’t be the first time Amon was held up* Michael thought putting the phone down, just about then Tish came in with a triumphant smug grin. “I know where Amon is” Tish announced to the room, gaining every ones attention. “where is he Tish”? It was Dojima who asked, Tish knelt on Robin\'s old desk “he’s at Harries showing off his new girlfriend”, Tish got the desired reaction she wanted, “Amon with a girl, impossible” Dojima said trying to stifle a laugh “he looked pretty cuddly with her, the were sitting right next to each other and he actually laughed at something the girl said”, Tish said in a haughty tone.


Dojima just looked at Tish her mouth open, “what does the girl look like, did he really laugh”? Dojima managed to ask threw a still gaping mouth. “Yes he really did, um she had long dark hair, very thin, kind of had a face like an elf, I know I have seen her before”. Michael stopped listing to Tish, the elf part struck him as someone very familiar, * it would explain why Amon was happy*, Michael quickly clicked on a file and a picture of Robin popped up. “Tish, did she look like her”? Michael pointed to the screen, Miho and Dojima both gasped when they saw Robins picture. Miho started to protest “Michael come on she’s gone” but her statement fell on deaf ears “yeah, except for the hair, must be her sister or something”. Tish said simply, Michael stood up “Robin doesn’t have a sister”, he yelled behind him.


Sakaki, Dojima, Miho and Tish all followed right behind Michael, they couldn’t believe it, no way was Robin alive. But there she was, they all rushed into the small restaurant, mouths hung open, all save Tish. All she thought about was now she would be ignored even more, even possibly loss her job. Harry was the first to see Robin old coworkers, as he stood up “ looks like you have more company Robin, don’t be a stranger” Harry walked to the bar, Robin stood up as did Amon, before the group could mob Robin he managed to whisper a question into her ear. “Is this a good thing, them seeing you”? “ I’m not sure yet” robin forced her self to answer, Amon’s breath on her neck was sinful.


Before being able to say anything more, one of the group moved to embrace Robin, Robin was passed from on set of arms to the next and then around again, the second time around Robin had started to laugh. “I take it you guys missed me”, Robin joked; “did we miss you Robin, oh Course we missed you, Amon has been a stick in the mud with out you” Dojima joked. “And how is that different, exactly”? Robin shot back “well at least with you were around you would annoy him, that was the best” Sakaki continued. Robin looked at Amon “was I that bad”? She asked. But turned to Tish not expecting an answer, Robin put her hand out “and you must be the replacement” Robin said sweetly, Tish slowly took the hand offered “yes, Tish, Tish Green, I’m from the American sector”, “where from, Tish” Robin asked but this time in English, Amon noticed how the switch in language put Green at ease. * Green is actually being nice* Sakaki thought, * how does robin do it* Sakaki continued.


Tish smiled she kind of like Robin. “A small town in California called Santa Maria”, Robin shook her head “Santa Maria, strawberries right, about 30 minutes from Pismo…great waves”, Robin finished with a smile, which grew when Tish laughed and shook her hand again. “Yeah, you’ve been there, do you surf?” Tish looked like she was about to cry it was the first time in a year she was able to talk about her home with people that cared. “Yeah I spent a couple of days, and I don’t personally surf but some friends of mine are from Pismo…so you know how that is.” Tish laughed, she really liked Robin. All the others stood stunned, listing to a conversation that was not only in English but was completely Greek as well.


Amon realized what Robin was doing right away, not only was she being friendly to Tish, but she was getting her on her side. * Smart girl, Tish wont want to send the only friend she has into the hands of Solomon when she finds out who Robin is*, Amon thoughts were interrupted by his cell phone, it could only be one person. “Hello” Amon answered coldly, “hey little brother, I have a little more info on Phoenix, and that other guy, Ben something” Robin looked at Amon; the way she keep her head angled , gave Amon the feeling she could hear the phone conversation perfectly. Every from where she stood. “I will be right over”, Amon hung up the phone. And took Robins arm for a second, “your coming with me”, He excused him self and Robin, but not before Robin promised not to disappear again.


“Where are we going”? Robin said in her most innocent voice, “you know perfectly well, how I’m not sure but”, Robin softly giggled and patted Amon on the arm “Amon you should know by now that the female sex will always have there little secrets, how is Nagira by the way”? Robin asked very nonchalant, Amon just started the car thinking he rather liked this side of robin. As Amon drove he thought about how it took Robin no less then 5 minutes to win Green over. “ your fascinating”, the words popped out of Amon’s mouth before he could stop them, Robin looked over at him, shocked , he quickly tried to explain “ what you did with Green, the woman’s horrible, and you befriended her in less than 5 minutes”, Amon wasn’t sure if the cover had worked.


Robin sighed “ oh I’m sure she not so bad, she moves to a brand new place, no friends, no family, completely new culture, her coworkers ignore her, her partner completely ignores her, hard to be happy, when your not” Robin said with a look that said check and mate. Amon got the point, he knew he owed Robin a very over due apology, but now was not the time or the place. “ earlier you said you didn’t know if it was good for them to see you” Amon said letting Robin pick up the conversation “ yeah, it could be a good thing as much as a bad one, at least this way I can easily protect them, you. Other wise it would be far to difficult.” Robin reached into her pocket and took out the small white container and proceeded to put one of the small tabs in her mouth. “What are those”? Amon asked, counting in his head how many he had seen Robin take the past day and a half. “Just vitamins”, Robin smiled and quickly put the container in her pocket.


Nagira really didn’t have more information for Amon, but he had heard that Amon was eating lunch with a beautiful young dark haired girl, he never expected Amon would bring her alone, never in a life time would he expect it to be Robin. So when he watched Amon open the door for his date, he was stunned, it took him a moment to actually recognize Robin, she looked a lot older, far far more mature then she did the last time he had seen her, he didn’t know if it was the hair or if it was just her but Robin was sexy, buy the way Nagira saw Amon look at her when he opened the door, Amon thought so too.

“ Hello, Nagira its great to see you again”, Robin said politely, but it quickly turned into a throated sound of surprise and then a soft giggle, as Nagira picked her up and spun her around in his arms. Amon glared at his older half brother, he always had to make a scene. With Robin back on her feet, “Nagira, you have meet Robin, now allow me to introduce you to Phoenix” Amon pointed to Robin after Nagira just looked around confused for a moment. “ it’s my pleasure” Robin put her hand out for Nagira to shake, Nagira started to laugh as he shook her hand, “ well I’m not surprised, so is every thing I hear about you true”, Robin smiled “ most likely, but Nagira I’m disappointed, I thought you wanted to help witches not sell them out to your younger half” Robin said sternly, nodding towerds Amon

Nagira shook his head as he grinned “ on my credit this was only the second time, anyway your not just some witch, but I told him every thing I found out both sides, you’re a killer you’re a savior, forgive me” Nagira pleaded , Robin chewed on her cheek for a moment, then sighed “ oh fine”, she smiled, “ there are still some of your things upstairs if you want them Robin” Nagira said but was looking at Amon, meaning he wanted to speak to him alone, or at least not in front of Robin. “Thank you”, she walked past Nagira and turned to look at both of them, “try not to say anything to nasty about me while I’m out of earshot”, Nagira looked stunned, and Amon had come to expect it. With out another word Robin walked up the stairs.


“ good god, Amon she’s turned out to be a vixen, she’s gorgeous, not found of the hair color but damn, she’s got some fire in her” Nagira laughed “ but than she always did” he added. “ she doesn’t like the hair color either, and yes I noticed she was rather attractive” Amon said matter of fact, Nagira snorted “ you just noticing that Amon, she’s been beautiful since she was 15, what is she now 16, 17 at least, a year away has done her good, she’s confident, nothing like before” Nagira would have continued along that same line if Amon had not interrupted him “ Robin was able to hear the conversation we had on the phone, I would not be surprised that she could hear you now” Amon said sternly, trying to change the topic from Robins feminine gifts, to anything really. Nagira smirked “if she can, then she heard you say you are attracted to her” Nagira grinned again, Amon did his best to not care.


Before the conversation could turn back to Robin, Robin ended it her self, she had her cell phone to her ear, she rushed down the stairs, as she passed by Nagira she grabbed Amon’s jacket, “ were going on a monster hunt”, Nagira looked at them strangely as they got into the car, Robin waved goodbye as they drove off. “ yes Seth I’m aware this is a trap” Robin spoke into the phone, as she did she would point to a street for Amon to take, “no were on the way, who else is there, good, that’s 7 send Allie, and Michael… good already done, were going to do both.” Robin hung up the phone, “it’s right on the corner” before Amon could even park Robin was out of the car and heading up a flight of stairs on the side of an old building, Amon hurried right behind her.


“Robin what going on”? he managed to ask as he caught up, “ Benicio, is hoping I’m not prepared enough, 20 freshly hatched eaters kidnapped a car full of girls, they going to kill them, if we don’t get there on time” Robin flung open the door, inside were a couple of people including Seth. “How is that a trap”? Amon asked ignoring the eyes he could from the strangers. “It’s a trap because he going to attack Dojima, and them, or possibly each of them separately, I knew I should have killed that little coward when I had the chance. But I already Have two of my own on the way, they wont let them leave ravens flat, they will be safer there.” Robin knelt down in front of an old wood chest and opened it, she took out a black metal short sword and a new shirt, and she quickly pulled off the shirt she took from Amon, and went about tying the sword onto her lower inner arm, and pulled the new shirt over her self, Amon just stood looking at robins bare skin for a moment.


Robin looked around from each person in the place, they were all getting ready. She looked back at Amon, “in case you had any lingering confusion about my sanity, your going to be helping us” she said it as tied up her boots. She looked at a man in his early thirties, he was well built, long red hair, tan skin. Amon thought briefly that he could have been one of the twins. “Chris, get Amon loaded up” Robin ordered, as she tied up her hair. The man nodded and quickly took a magazine and loaded a gun, he jogged over, “only use what I give you, your weapon won’t work, shoot in the head, it only takes one.” Amon nodded and took the gun and two extra clips he was given. Seth came rushing over, “Allie, and Mike are in place, and were running out of time”. Robin didn’t answer, she was up on her feet, and the others followed her out. She looked at Amon and Seth, “with me”. Robin got into her car, Seth in back Amon in the front seat; the others into there own transportation.


Robin sped out, following the directions her GPS gave her, “is it really 20 Seth”? Robin asked in disbelief “yep, there must be a new queen, no way can Benicio hatch that many in under a week.” Seth said as he leaned in the middle of both the front seats. Robin shook her head “impossible, it takes a month, I haven’t left him alone for two strait weeks let alone a month” Robin explained. Seth swallowed “what about when you were with Nightmare, he could have kept the queen in his pocket, you know if things got bad” Robin didn’t answer, she started to slow down, “I hate hatchlings”, robin hissed. Seth continued to explain why newborn eaters were so bad to Amon, “a new born eater will attack anything, there about 50 times more dangerous then the experienced eater, not that there are many left, anyway if you get bit, witch we all do, you do what ever you can to get them off, they will rip a grown mans arm off in seconds.” Seth was hushed by Robin, they had arrived.
