A blue fiery azure flame blazed into life at her doorstep painting the entire room an light blue.

Charlie was more annoyed by it's appearance than being bothered as she kept her phone on the bed and went to the door.

The flame dispersed to form a vixen with a tuxedo in it's place.

They held each other's gaze for a while, neither saying a thing.

"Charlie." She greeted.

"Heslie." Charlie greeted back.

"I'm sorry it took me this long to visit with work and-" she began.

"It's okey." Charlie replied, cutting her off.

"I don't regularly visit too." Charlie added

Heslie exhaled deeply, nodding in understanding.

Finally she went to the dreaded inquiry.

"Charlie ... what's wrong ?" She asked.

Charlie quirked a brow in question.

"You've been the subject of quite alot of the controversies circulating the media right now and-"

"I didn't do any of them." Charlie answered truthfully, gazing at her intently.

"I know." Heslie said raising her hands in defense.

"I ... just saw your speech to the press tonight." She added.

Charlie eyes squinted, glaring at her deeply.

"That's not you."

"What really is wrong ?" She asked.

Charlie gazed at her silently as she held the door.

"You're missing your angels ?"

"Just one." Charlie replied.

"Damn, I miss the other one." She added to Charlie amusement.

"Even though she did lie to me about alot of things."

"Initially I had thought it was some undercover ploy to get classified information from you, or something like that."

"I had elaborate plans for both of there throats ripped out and fed to my surbodinates."

"What made you change you mind ?" Charlie asked.

"You don't have classified information Charlie morningstar." She replied with a grin.

'Ouch' Charlie mouthed, playfully feigning a gut punch as she grasped her chest tightly in pain.

Heslie laughed heartily at her theatric, her tail wagging side to side in amusement.

Charlie smiled as her melancholy dissipated a little bit.

Heslie expertly caught the expression.

"Damn there's something else too girl ?" She asked, with an expression of concern.

"Come in." Charlie said as she entered the room motioning for her to follow.

Heslie was suprisingly anxious and stiff as she professional sauntered in.

Charlie caught on with a smile.

"Relax, I'm not going to do anything to you."

"I've gotten rid of all my toys, chains and restrains."

"Even the whip ?" Heslie quipped.

"Even the whip." Charlie affirms.

"Damn ..." Heslie exclaimed with a smile, relaxing a little bit.

Charlie sat on the giant bed and motioned for heslie to follow

Heslie initially refused at first.

"We don't want to be-" she began.

"It's not about sex." Charlie said, dragging her onto the bed.

She picked her cellphone and handed it to heslie.

"It's dad." She said.

"What happened to him ?" Heslie asked.

"He stopped calling back." She finished.

Heslie opened the phone and gazed at the 40 missed calls on it.

"Oh dear." She exclaimed.

"You had a quarrel ?" She asked.

"A little bit."

"You should not have left him on 40 missed calls." Heslie replied

"He's the sin of pride darling."

"He won't take this well."

"I don't care how he takes it." Charlie replied.

"He should come over here and talk to me in person."

"Then why not tell him that ?" Heslie asked.

"He should know." Charlie replied as she slumped back onto the bed, staring at it's roof intently.

Heslie bit her lip taking in Charlie's splayed frame.

"Well, I think I should take my leave now." She stated, as she stood up.

"Stay." Charlie instructed.

"Keep me company a little bit."

Heslie shakily exhaled as she sat back down, crossing one leg on top of another, gazing forward intently.

"Lie down." Charlie instructed.

Heslie stiffened but followed Charlie's instructions regardless.

She closed her eyes as her body touched the soft cover beneath them.

"We really are tempting fate, aren't we ?" She asked.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Angel disembarked the stairs running like a mad man as alastor congealed from a shadow.

"OH MY GUUD !!" he exclaimed in joy and pleasure.

Husk slowly disembarked with a smile, following after him.

"I'M FREE !!" He continued.

"THAT BASTARD REALLY IS DEAD !!"

He grasped Alastor tightly in his joyful haze to the great disconcertion of husk.

"I'm free !!" He yelled again as he twirled him around and flung him away.

Alastor laughed lightly as he staggered to his feet, and adjusted his spectacle.

"I won't be so forgiving of that next time." He warned as his eyes burned ominously red.

He turned towards husk giving him a nod in greeting as he walked towards his room.

Husk was baffled to silence unable to even return the greeting as Alastor walked by.

"He ... let you off with just a warning." Husk.

"What's the matter ?" Angel asked.

"Alastor hates being touched." Husk said.

"Extremely."

Husk was more unsettled by the fact that assuaged.

"That man is getting more unpredictable by the day." He mused.
