Back in England, the Carter manor had smoke billowing out of one window and screams could be heard from within. The guards tried their best to hold back the assailant but failed as they were being attacked by strange weapons that seemed to be coming from nowhere and everywhere at the same time. A single man calmly walked the corridors as anyone who faced him would collapse, bleeding from nearly every pore and gashing wounds. He would draw strange markings on flat surfaces and bizarre weapons would form the various from unrelated materials. Ambrose was searching every room but could only find maids and nothing else. With every empty room that greeted him, the angier he got. The number of bodies left in his wake was becoming great but he only cared that he found Ariella. He finds a gaurd that was still breathing and grabs him by the collar, "Where are your master and Ariella?" "They're not here?" the guard coughs out, "Must be in some closet getting their freak on-!" Ambrose shuts

“This is agent Larson reporting in,” a voice says in Cowasian. It comes over a sound system with slight static. “This is Base, receiving.” Another voice responds in the same language. “I just encountered an agent that was lost on the Carter assignment.” “Agent Scarlet? Was she on her own?” At the mention of Scarlet, the person’s attention perched up and listened closer to the conversation. “She was with Nell Carter.” “Did it seem like he had any kind of weapon?” The voice asked concerned. “No. It appeared they were just on a date.” This infuriated the person listening in. “As long as he is unarmed, we shouldn’t have to keep an eye on them. Where did you-“ A knock on the door draws their attention away from the conversation. “Hey you’ve been in there for an hour!” A raspy voice says in English, “other people need to use the restroom!” The equipment that was used collapsed into a simple earbud that he placed in his pocket and stepped out of the bathroom. Ambrose looks down at th

After Ariella and Nell had their food, they made their way to the Colosseum and joined the tour. The guide was a peppy young girl with an annoying voice. "Ciao everyone! My name is Bianca and I will be your tour guide for this evening! While we go on this adventure together, I ask that you save your questions until the end of the tour. And please, no flash photography. Is everyone ready? Great! Now if you would follow me" She starts to lead the group before anyone could say anything. "Well, isn't she..." Nell says, disgusted and struggling to find the right word, "A girl." "Come on," Ariella says as she takes his arm, "Let's just enjoy the tour." "Now this Colosseum is what is called an elliptical amphitheatre. It is the largest ancient amphitheatre ever built, and is still the largest standing amphitheatre in the world, despite its age. Construction began under the emperor Vespasian in 72 AD and was completed in 80 AD under his successor and heir, Titus. Further modifications we

A young Ariella tossed and turned as a nightmare tormented her. Whimpers and cries of fear would slip past her lips as visions of her parents fighting off a faceless foe crossed her minds eye. Their companions layed behind her parents lifeless and still, tears stained her mother's cheeks as rage filled her eyes and let her emotions blind her judgement. Her father was no better as he fought along side his mate. Before anything else could happen she was shaken awake by her mother, "Ari! Wake up!" Ariella gasped for breath, her heart racing in her chest, Kia was frantic as well as they snuggled into one of their parent for comfort, "Mater?" she says in Latin as she finally focuses on the woman in front of her. Her mother looked like she could be her older sister. They had the same freckles and piercing hazel eyes. Her hair had more of a red undertone then being full on red like Ariella. She was as tall as Ariella if not slightly shorter. "Where's pater? What just happened to me?" "P

As the girls were in the kitchen making lunch, Nell just sat in the living room, staring at the egg. His egg? The idea still confused him but he didn’t think he was upset about it. He hadn’t even thought about having kids until Ariella came into his life. He’s only known about the kid for an hour now and he was already anticipating this child’s arrival. Ariella was making a spinach and feta frittata while she talked to her friend, “How are your parents?” “Oh you know, what can you say when your parents run this section of the world?” “That’s true. You were always hanging out with Ambrose and I because of that” Ariella giggles. “We were all lonely kids, who found camaraderie in each other.” She raises her glass of juice in her friend’s direction. “And may we always have each other when partners get us down!” She raised her own glass. “And what’s that supposed to mean?” Nell says from the living room. “I didn’t think you could hear me from in there.” She says half heartedly as
