distractions for an concerned Watcher

[slayers_desire]

For the most part, the last week of training with Rain had gone as normal, and the only thing out-of-ordinary had been the invitation to supper with April's mother. And it had been the conversation over the dinner table that sparked a little worry for April, knowing that her mother had to deal with threats from someone wishing her harm in Gotham.

Harley had urged that April just continue with her life as usual and not put any more thought into the news. Something that was easier said than done.

So to distract herself today, April thought that it was a good time to invite Nate over, and have him spar a little with Rain. At least it was better than sitting around and worrying -- which she had been doing for the last couple of moments while Rain meditated. So she send Nate a text message and hoped that he would soon respond and arrive.

A soft growl came from the Vampire. "Let me out..."

Rain's mother touched his face. "She loves you Rain. She wanted to give you a moment with us again. So you would know... we are very proud of you. And we love you."

"Yeah.. that would be a BIG fuckin' no."

Rain kissed his mother, hugged his father, then took Eve from their arms, hugging her and kissing her before handing her back. "I love you all and miss you so much. I'll never forget you." he backs slowly away, concerned for April.

Another struggled attempt at the cage, before the Vampire relized that would not work. "I will find a way out..."

As Rain left his parents, he felt an overwhelming amount of their love and pride. The whole area glowed with the light of their love. And then he was back in the training centre.

"Yeah... good luck with that." He turned when he saw Rain approaching.

"She said she'll be like this for a few days. Might wanna keep your distance. I'll bring the key back when it's safe to let her out."

Rain holds out his hand. "I think I can decide for myself when to let my girlfriend out of a cage. I'm not a moron."

He held his other, broken hand close to his body.

"I can take things from here, go home."

The Vampire in the cage, crossed her arms, not saying much as she watched the two men converse. With a flick, she called back her Beast form, and stared at them with blood-red eyes.

"Ahhh no thanks or anything..."

"Your funeral." Nate was not in the mood to argue with the kid. He tossed him the keys and PINpointed out.

Rain was more intent on what was going on. He sighed. "I was going to thank you when you were able to appreciate it... but thank you April." he didn't like seeing her like this, she wasn't his April. She looked like a caged animal.

"I meant thanking the tall brooding cyborg, Slayer." It sounded different on her tongue this time, not when they were sharing an intimate moment.

"He's an asshole. You thank him, I didn't ask him to come." He growled.

"I do not have to thank anyone." April leaned against the cage. When she returned to normal, she would feel different.

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

"Then don't." he shrugs. "I appreciate what you did for me though. This isn't going to cause you any permanent damage is it?" He looks for something in the first aid kit to doctor his hand up. He hoped the broken bones would knit straight. He wasn't a doctor.

"No. It won't." She could lie to him, but she knew that Rain would sense the fact that her vampire form was still in control. "I am this way for 72 hours. Limbo has rules... a 24 soul lease for each soul one wants to visit."

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

"Fair enough." He said, doctoring his hand as best he could. April could do this so much better than him but that wasn't an option.

"Are you hungry? Want a raw steak or something?"

"Not at the moment. It is almost morning and I should sleep." There was a dark curtain covering the areas of the cage, where the sun might get inside. Without completely covering her, in case Rain wanted to keep his eye on her.

((I have to run errands. I will start a new thread, after 32 hours of Rain watching Vampire-April when I return))

Rain went to get a blanket and a pillow. He placed them on the outside of the cage to get some shuteye. He was a light sleeper, he would know if she tried anything.

((Okay))
