He wakes up and stretches, the light coming in through the bedroom window piercing his eyes.
Squeezing them shut against the glare, he rolls over with a sigh.
And stares right into the face of the woman lying next to him. His arm is draped casually over her, and her head is nestled against his chest.
She looks up at him with a sleepy smile and snuggles in closer.
"Good morning."
"Morning."
He glances appreciatively at the portrait hanging over the bed (their bed!), before giving his unseen friends a meaningful look and slipping out and heading to the kitchen.
"I'll make breakfast", he calls as he disappears around the corner.
She watches him leave with a smile.
A menacing smile.
She slithers out of bed.
The shock on Pastor Nick's face has Hanji trying desperately not to laugh. It really is no laughing matter, and she grabs him by the elbow, following Levi into the living room.
Something is different though.
No "Trinity" in the kitchen....
"Levi, where's-"
"Shh! Pastor Nick, I can feel it here, but it's nowhere to be seen."
"There were rituals used by the priests of the old God religion, though I don't know if I can perform them.", Pastor Nick whispers.
"Then find a way to make them yours. Hurry."
Pastor Nick gives a tiny nod as they make their way through the living room. Everyone is trying to look everywhere at once and it causes a rather clumsy group huddle, complete with muttered curses and subsequent apologies to the Pastor.
The silence in the room makes every muttered expletive sound louder than logical, and Levi almost misses the whispering of Trinity's voice.
"SHHH!"
He listens closer.
"..... Studio."
Understanding hopefully what she has planned, he heads immediately for the door. It is then that the creature pops up behind Hanji and throws her into the wall. She slides down with a thud and a groan.
"See to her!", Levi yells and dashes for the door. It's coming for him now, determined to not let him inside.
