Antoine tossed his head back, leaning against the wall and sighed, "Yes." he responded grudgingly, "I was distracted. Could have been killed. First rule of assasination."

Antoine pushed himself off the wall, and followed grimly alongside the other man. "I'm going to have to explain this to the ministry one way or another." he muttered,

They walked back to the bar. The bartender took one look at them and set down two Bloody Dreams in front of them. Seres took his and took a sip. "Can you tell me more of the thing you are working on?" he asked Antoine.
Antoine shrugged, downing his drink in a quick succession of swallows before setting it on the table with a loud clink. "I suppose so." he replied, resting a hand on his thigh and the other on the counter. "It really is supposed to be a creature of darkness, a creature that is made of the shadows itself - if your not a fan of black magic I assure that you wouldn't like it - but it is made of darkness and even the most complexe spells can't quell it's famish for flesh and blood. So far it's eaten the residents of my building, which is few but I can't stop it unless I have a stone of dreams or some other light-powered stone that will be able to dim the power of this beast."

Seres frowned. A light powered stone huh? "I think," he said slowly, "I may be able to help you out." He took another sip. "Why do you have this...beast, anyway?"
"The ministry had ordered it to be created." he answered simply, picking up the now filled glass and drinking it greedily, his eyes were bloodshot now from the caffeine he'd taken.

"They dispise the werewolves and vampyres. They had planned on using the creature to destroy them for they would be no match for something that is nearly a combination of them both." he sighed, weary now.

The man looked up, eyebrows raised but he said nothing as he rose from his seat and left a dollar on the bar. "Very well." he responded, his black eyes now a golden brown. "Come on." he muttered, as he exited the tavern.

Seres followed him out. I wonder if it's on this planet. I may be able to use Elaragnia's power to dispel the darkness...I think I have enough soul left for it...
Antoine stood in the alley way, "I don't necessarily need a stone, but if you do we're just travelling to the next province over, and I don't feel like walking."
