He stuck the needle on his arm, and felt as the thread passed through his skin. It hurt like hell, but he was used to the pain. He sewed up his wound, and moved to a gash on his leg, doing the same. The previous night had been an adventure of sorts. He was glad to have Ripper back, and he was even more glad to be back home after a month or so away. He yawned, and sniffed the air, making sure what he was making wasnt burning. He was exhuasted but for some reason he just couldnt sleep, so he decided to tend to his wounds, and that was just what he was doing.

She entered the room looking liek she jsut stepped out from under a waterfall. She had been in her room training herself, just as she always did. She had not left the house much because he had warned her of the dangers. She was not scared of much but if she was warned she would not chance things. Especially when she had to go back to her Trainees. She worried about them but had news on them many times. She leaned agaisnt teh wall opposite him when she noticed him and shook her head, "How did a few days turn into a month?"

"I could say Magic, but nah. Didnt find Ripper in those few days, so I just kept on searching for him. I should have sent word, but I just wanted to find him, glad I did. He was in some really fucked up place." He looked up to her, when he finished with his wound.

She raised her eyebrow, "Yeah you could have. But I kept busy, writing out new instructions for the Trainees and stuff. How much longer we going to be here? I need to check in on them, or better yet move them closer." She looked at his wounds and shook her head then shoved off the wall, "You know just stitching that isnt going to do you much good. Infection might set in, although seeing you walk around here with bloated arms would be funny."

He looked at her. "That's good. How are they making out, anyway? Better I hope." He shook his head. "I already applied herbs to it." He pointed to some herbal plants on the table. "I've been through this enough times to know what to do and not do." He gave a firm nod. "If you want, you can go on to your trainees. I mean you know how to get to house and where to go to get stuff. As for me and Ripper, we'll probably stay here, seeing as it's a home away from home."

She nodded, "Very well then. But I have this kick ass liquid I use on mine. Reduces scarring and burns like hell." She shrugged and went to get a towel to wipe the sweat from her face, "Not sure if I should or not. They need to adjust to my not being around at times. I wnt always be there for them. After all Mathias might come for me one day. Then where will they be?" She eyed him a moment and pressed the towel against her face and then her neck, "Wasn't expecting you to go. You have helped me enough with showing where to get some great stuff from."

"True. They probably understand that, but they probably miss you. I'd venture to say that they might look at you like a parental figure. Since you're probably the only nice adult they know." He leaned, back and looked up. "Why would he come for you?" He ran his hands over his face. "You underestimate them. They can probably handle their own, but instead of teaching them strictly how to steal, you should try training so they can defend themselves."

She laughed, "Me a Parental figure, not hardly. i am no more like a mother to them then their own Parents. I have been nic eto them but I try not to get attached. I keep my distance." She shrugged, "Why wouldn't an older brother come after his kid sister? I havent done what the rest of the family does. They are ruthless and I choose to be passive at times. True I steal and Kill when i have to. But not needlessly." She raised her eyebrow a moment, "You think I have not done so? They are skilled in battle as well as in stealth and theivery. My trainees are the best." She seemed to swell a bit with pride, she was proud of her trainees and deep down did care for each in everyone of them. But she would not let that on, it was a weakness that people would take advantage of.

He laughed. "Lee, if you think for a moment I believe that cock and bull story, you probably dont know me very well, after these five years. I've seen you with them. I've seen how you interact with them, I've seen that slight glimmer in your eyes. I used to be just like you. And then when I found out a few things, I couldnt help but get attached. Ripper there, he's not my real son, but I love him like he was. I'm tired of people thinking that shit is bad news, and some kind of weakness. Yeah it can be, but it's also strength. You'll know one day, when you hold your own kid in your arms, you'll know how it feels." He eyed the ceiling again. "Yeah, I've heard of your family's reputation. I think it'll only get worse, the reputation that is." He snorted. "Kid sister? You?" He laughed. "Yeah, last I checked you have to be a KID to be a kid, anything." He smirked.

She rolled her eyes, "And of the past five years have you not noticed that I will never admit to anythign that can be seen as a weakness. Yeah I care for them, but it only makes it ahrder when one of them is harmed. Damn lucky you didnt kill Tamara that day she pick pocketed you. She was my favorite, raised her from just barely a baby. So we both got lucky that say. I didnt loose that kid and didnt have to kill you. But i dont think I'll have a child of my own. I am never with a man long enough. Your the first man that i have been around for longer then a few weeks and we arent even together." She smiled slightly and rolled her eyes, "You seem to be the embodiment of a saint. You see your alot like me with him. you took him in when most would let him die." She took a seat not very far from him and then tossed her towel at him, "According to Mathias I am still a kid. Along with the rest of the family. So it doesnt matter what age I am. I have to answer to him."

"It get tiring. Just admit it. Jeez, it's not like I'm going to use to my advantage or anything." He couldnt help but laugh, he was about to say that she really couldnt kill him that easily, but he stopped himself, remembering that she still thought he was a human. "Yeah, lucky me." He got up, and went to where the fireplace was, and turned the boar he had found, killed and started cooking. "How old are you anyway? Way I see it, as soon as you hit 18, in human years you're an adult, no questions asked. But yeah, I WOULD say that." He sat back down then caught the towel, and sniffed it, making a face, "Smells like sweat and sex." He smirked.

She rolled her eyes, "Alright i care for the trainees. I admited it happy?" She eyed him a moment,"You know out of the five years I have known you. Well you age like someone who is not human. Kinda strange, but in the world we live in not so odd." She shrugged, "Havent really counted the years. after I hit 600 I stopped counting. But I estiamte I could be about 1000. But like i said Age doesnt matter, they jsut want one thing and that is for me to join the wonderful Barrin Family of crazy Demons." She shook her head and shifted in her feet, "I can guess where you got teh sweat, btu i have not had sex in a very long time so your imagining that." She cocked her head to the side, 'How old are you?"

He smiled and nodded. "Very happy, the happiest I've ever been." He said jokingly. "Wow, talk about old. Yep, you're just ancient by my standards." He chuckled. "Nah, I kid. I've met older, but you just tell them to take a hike. With what they're into, you need to stay the hell away from them.' He shrugged, and thought, how old could he be by human standards. "About 34." He nodded, hoping that was a good age.

She rolled her eyes, "Your sarcasm is lost on me. I'm young in the demonic standards." She raised her eyebrow, "And what would you know of what my Family is into? I'm curious to know how you know seem to know so much about things. This house and other things. And don;t say Magic, that excuse has been used up." She looked at him a moment, "Which would have made you about 29, 30 when we met? Funny, you just seem so much older. I could probably tap into your aura and see, but I'll take your word on it."

"Yeah, but by my standards, that's old. But you're looking good for your age." He smirked, when he heard her. "Just been around, here and there. Nothing else. Heard a few things, you tend to hear a lot of rumours. Some are true, some are not, but that's how you learn." He looked at her. "Maybe I'm like 37, but I say 34 to seem younger, jeez, can a guy TRY to remain young as long as he can." He rolled his eyes.
