Traitors Embrace, Inhuman Creation

CH 7


Robin pulled a crimson trench coat out of the trunk and put it on; Amon naturally noticed right away how attractive robin appeared. “You get to be the leader now Amon”, robin said with a wan smile. Robin looked around, she smiled at the thin air “where are the people you sent here” Amon asked following robins gaze “there around”, she replied simply. Amon lead the way to the elevator, there was an awkward silence going up. “Amon try not to look so like I\'m about to kill every one”, the elevator opened, and robin bowed her hand extended out into the hall “witch hunters first”. Robin’s expression was blank again; it made every thing she said and did become false, and sarcastic.


Amon walked out, Seth behind him robin trailed back a foot or two. She caught up with them when they arrived at the office, not so much caught up but materialized next to Amon, she was humming the lyrics of a song Amon knew he had heard and liked but couldn’t place. Amon examined robin’s stature, she looked slumped over, her face was pale, but had the look that people with a fever have. He watched as a tremor ran threw her body, her jaw stiffened, her hands were trembling at her sides, she put them quickly in her pockets.


Amon wasn’t the only one who noticed robins condition, “god robin, you have to keep track of how many you use a day”, Seth tone was stern, and very displeased; he was acting as the doctor now. Robin lips curled into smile, but her body shook with pain “I’m fine, now what the hell are we doing waiting out side, can we please go in” she hissed at Amon. Immediately after she started to hum again, the same song as before, Amon still could not place it. Amon ignored the fact that robin was obviously not ok, Seth didn’t seem bothered by it any longer so it must not have been anything to dangerous. Amon yanked the door open, and walked in with out another word to robin or Seth.


Michael was sitting at robin’s old terminal, the others were huddled around him, and Michael was typing furiously. Michael looked up at robin “there’s a password, or something blocking me from the message”, robin smiled, Amon was briefly shocked she looked fine, completely fine. “Well it might have something to do with it being addressed to me and not you”, robin said with a soft non approving tone. Michael moved from the chair and robin took his place. She began typing in a string of letters and numbers, different pages would pop up and she would continue, a minute later the message was unlocked.


Before robin could click to open it, Michael stopped her “how the hell did you do that, I have never even seen that before”, Michael asked in disbelief, robin clicked on the message, still looking at the screen “then you should get out more Michael”. The message opened, it was video, with an audio track over it. Every one watched as each of there residences came onto the screen, each listened to Benicio speak to robin. “Hello beloved, an eye for an eye. You caught me off guard this afternoon, you have gotten stronger, or are you giving in, you cannot protect them for ever, I will have them all” the message blinked out.


Every one was silent, each staring at robin, Seth was the first to speak up “it must suck always being right” robin nodded, and turned to Amon “I think it would be a good idea if you briefed them on all that’s necessary” robin spoke directly giving Amon an order for the first time in his life. Amon didn’t like how easily it settled in his stomach, it made him feel like he would do anything she asked, follow her into hell if need be. He wasn’t aware that the others had started moving to the conference room, only chief kosaka stayed behind. “I’m not letting a wanted witch just walk around”, Amon interjected before robin had the chance. “Robin hasn’t done a thing wrong, we were giving false information, which if you would come into the conference room I am about to explain.”


Amon pulled Kosaka towered the conference room, Amon looked back in time to see robin grinning smugly to Seth, there was a look in her eyes that made Amon think twice about saying robin hadn’t done anything wrong. Amon just stored into the list of things that would be talked about when robin and he had THE TALK.


Robin stayed sitting down, she readjusted her posture so she was more draped into the chair, Robins hands began to shake again, she put them back into her pocket “ what are you telling him the pills are” Seth asked, “ vitamins, and there is absolutely no reason why he has to find out I’m a pain pill junkie”, robin spoke with complete contempt for her self “ Don’t robin, you know that’s not true”, Seth said almost pleading “ it doesn’t matter” , Seth knew that it was the end of the argument, considering they had it nearly every day. “Well at least tell me if it is withdrawals or actual pain”, robin squeezed her eyes shut as another tremor ran threw her body, “withdrawal never felt like this”.


Robin took a strip of leather out of her pocket, while waiting for the witch hunters to come back into the room she put her hair back, like always most of the hair fell out forming long tendrils of bangs. Robin was very aware that Seth was watching her “the pills barely even work anymore, I don’t know if it is because of me, or if what ever Benicio put on that blade is the cause, I did keep track thank you very much, I brought 15 I took 15”, robin stated firmly, Seth just looked at her shocked “15, you should be dead at four in this amount of time, what were you thinking robin”. “You gave me two last night when I was knocked out; you didn’t seem two worried last night”.


Seth was now out of the chair he was sitting in “ that was different and you know it, answer me truthfully how long have you been taking more than two a day, I know with your metabolism, and your new genetics that your not like a normal person, but 15 robin that cant be true”. As sympatric as Seth sounded, robin could see the desire for new knowledge in his eyes * always a scientist*, “average is ten, minimum 8, max 13”, robin said with out emotion, Seth eyes shot open, his mouth hung open, he flopped back down in the chair “that’s amazing, robin you have to let me do blood work, hell the whole lot. Gabby will freak, he knows better then any of us the full effects of the drug, you know considering his father created It.”, Seth continued to mumbled along those lines for another minute.


Robin sensed that the meeting in the conference room was nearing the end, “Seth, go gather the others, bring them up, call Chris have his team go to each house, a person each”. Robin ordered Seth stood with his phone already to his ear; the others came back out of the conference room just as Seth exited the office, Amon and Karasuma watched him leave. “ Where’s he off to”, Karasuma asked still looking at the door, robin remained sitting “ retrieving your escorts”, robin spoke like it was an obvious answer, it was Tish who spoke this time “ and what about you, Benicio is doing this as revenge, what are you going to do to keep us not becoming queens, what ever a queen is, Amon couldn’t tell us because he doesn’t know either”, Tish finished with a huff, “ there will be time for all that later, all questions you have can and will be answered, as for me I offer my residence as protection until this little problem is taken care of”., robin said as she inclined her head towards the door.

Two men and a women walked in Seth behind them, the man at point surveyed the room quickly, he was tall and thin, but very toned, his chin was angled giving him a slight feline appearance, , the man was easily well over 6 feet, Amon guessed at least 6’7”, making the man taller then Amon. The mans hair was a blond that was more white, fell to his waist, longer when not pulled back. His skin tone was a very soft bronze, like several years ago he had been very dark but it had worn away, his eyes were an electric blue. Amon really couldn’t place the time or style the man was dressed it, but it fit him. The other man and women looked bland in comparison both very average.

Robin stood from the chair, with all the grace she had the day before, no sign of pain at all. Robin walked between Amon and Michael, touching each as she passed, sending a shiver threw both of them, Amon hid it easily, but Michael blushed. Seth spoke up from behind the small group that just entered “look who I found”, robin grinned. And extended her hand to the man, he took it and pulled her up into a tight hug, he lifted her off the ground much like Nagira had. He put her back down quickly “Revel, my oldest and dearest friend what have I done for such a gift”, Amon had never heard anyone be so happy. “ it is so rare that we are in the same country, I simply could not resist, when I heard all that is going on with your Human companions, I came as quick as I could to offer my help”.


Robin shook her heard great fully, “ why not start now”, robin turned to the witch hunters, Dojima, Karasuma, and Tish all stood just staring at revel, Karasuma was blushing. “ let me introduce you to your escorts” robin put her hand on each persons shoulder as she introduced them “ this is Revel” revel smiled softly, Dojima gasped. “This is Alice”, Alice nodded “and this is Michael”, “pleasure”, his French accent was thick. Robin walked across the room to her former coworkers and did the same introducing each person. Right after introductions Alice, or Allie as she said to call her started the sorting of who goes with who “ the American and the blonde girl live a block within each other, I will take them” “ my name is Yurika Dojima, and the American is Tish Green” Dojima replied rudely “ I don’t care, time is wasting and you both have to pack lets go”, Allie ordered holding the door open for the two women, Amon heard Dojima right before the door shut “ great she’s a female version of Amon”,.


Michael stepped forward “I take it Phoenix you will be taken those two”, he said while nodded towered Amon and Michael. Robin just nodded, Michael looked two the two remaining witch hunters “fine, Haruto follow me if you please”. Sakaki said a quick good bye and walked out behind Michael. Seth walked over and shook Karasuma hand, and extended his arm “if you would my lady”, Karasuma blushed a deep scarlet and took Seth offered arm, Seth and Karasuma walked out arm in arm.


This left Just Amon, Michael, Revel, robin and chief kosaka, “ revel please explain to chief kosaka why he is a lucky man”, “ Amon, Michael” robin moved quickly, she didn’t exactly run or jog to the elevator, but to say she walked would not do justice. Each step she took was one solid fluid motion, Amon took a glance at Michael he looked as stunned as Amon felt. Once all three were in the elevator robin answered the question Michael and Amon were both about to ask “the chief is too old to be a queen, and no eater would want to eat him, would be like eating road kill. He is in no danger” robin said it with complete confidence, Amon could not be so sure “why not just murder him because they can”. Robin frowned “because Benicio is not a murderer, he has killed but it has never been for fun”.


The elevator doors opened to the garage, leaning against robins car was revel, robin smirked and mad a humph sound “is there a short cut I don’t know about” Michael asked Amon, Amon didn’t say anything but thought the same thing. Robin reached the car and opened the door “show off”, revel just grinned “you loved it when you were a kid”. Robin didn’t answer she was busy writing something down, robin handed revel a slip of paper threw the open door, “ this is his address”, revel looked at it for a moment “ let us leave these two Michael and go to your place so you can pack” revel started to walk away. Michael caught up “I don’t have a car”, revel ignored him “robin I will protect him like he was on of my children”, revel stopped and put his hand on Michael’s shoulder “shall I also retrieve the others vehicles”? Revel asked, robin nodded “yes, thank you”. Revel smiled “hope you like roller coasters Michael” before Michael said anything revel and Michael disappeared.


Amon gasped “what the hell, what kind of witch is he”? Robin laughed “ he’s not a witch”, Robin laughed again, this time at Amon expense “ what the hell do you mean he’s not a witch no normal person can do that”, robin giggled through her hand “ yes you are correct, Revel can not be a witch because he is not human, he is not even from this world, I mean to say this dimension”, robin smiled at Amon, “ but I do not hold that against him, do you want to drive I’m feeling just a tad ill”, once again Amon just stood there staring at robin stunned “ fine”. Robin tossed Amon her car keys and shut the passenger door and waited patiently for Amon to get in and start the car.


Amon started the car but just stared at the steering wheel, robin put her hand on his shoulder “ it will be ok Amon, the world is not ending, Revel is just one of many things that exist under your radar”, Amon let out a breath he hadn’t realized he was holding “ so you were serious about Revel”, “ yes, if you were raised the same way I was then you would know all about revel, his kind and all the other things normal happy go lucky people will never know”, robin forced a smile “ but then that makes you lucky, now are we going to sit in the car all day or are you going to drive”.
