Elizabeth: No, American. You were married in Chicago, right? Your marriage licence was in the U.S.A., right? You're American hon. Smile

Elizabeth chuckles...

Elizabeth: It's not that big of a deal, hon. Technically, I'm American, British, Scottish and Japanese. Along with some....others. And let's not forget your Jewish heritage as well.

Pockets Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:04 am

Alexis: Japanese? That's new....

Cryonix Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:04 am

Elizabeth: ...as far as you know. Wink

Pockets Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:18 am

Alexis: You're not going to tell me anything, are you?

Cryonix Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:21 am

Elizabeth: I'll tell you this....

She kisses Alexis on the forehead...

Elizabeth: Get better soon so your husband can continue to dote on you obsessively. Now I need to go speak to Colin, but I'll come see you again before I leave, okay?

Pockets Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:24 am

Alexis smiles, nodding

Alexis: Alright.

Cryonix Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:26 am

Elizabeth smiles at her and walks outside. She sees Colin, Amber and Lauren talking...

Elizabeth: Ah, excellent. You've started. Colin...what is your connection to Lillith Noire?

Jabberwocky Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:29 am

Colin:"Lilith? Well.. If her father had his wish, she would be my blushing bride."

Cryonix Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:30 am

Amber: That lying bitch....

Elizabeth: Comment to make, Amber?

Amber: She told me that there was a 'slight connection'.

Elizabeth: Why would Lucian want that, Colin?

Jabberwocky Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:33 am

Colin:"Slight connection...she did like down playing things...He claimed he saw something...In me. I don't have a clue what of course but...He wanted me to umm..."
he sighs
"'have a family' as he put it..."

Cryonix Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:37 am

Elizabeth: So, according to the profile we've placed together...Lillith wanted you...and Lucian won't stop until he has you for her, correct? Is that why you worked for him?

Jabberwocky Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:39 am

Colin:"Heh "worked for him" isn't exactly what I would have called it..."

Cryonix Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:39 am

Elizabeth: Please explain...in detail.

Jabberwocky Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:53 am

He sighs

Colin:"In detail.....okay...detail....
When I ran off I felt...lost...confused...I...I didn't know where I belonged on this damn planet. Sure there were people who could have "told me" but...I felt I couldn't trust the word of anybody but myself in that regard...
There were things I got involved in, before Lucian, that...Lets just say I wasn't exactly on the level. But I had to survive. I...I don't know...I wanted to earn my survival. Not just take it for granted. Thats why I only took a little bit of money with me and made sure I had that amount or less at the end of the day.

Anyways..one day I passed by this mansion. The gate was wide open and there were people flocking in. Mansion plus people...food. Good food. Very very good food. I snuck in, swiped a kitchen uniform, I think it was a porters or something and grabbed as much food as I could...Had I known that Lucian knew every face of every person employed in that house I wouldn't have done it...

Instead of calling the cops thought he...listened. Asked with genuine interest...about dad about...everything...He opened his house up to me."

Cryonix Thu Aug 11, 2011 5:00 am

Elizabeth, Lauren and Amber have taken a seat out in the hallway...

Amber: So...he was like a father figure more so than Ashley at the time, huh?

Jabberwocky Thu Aug 11, 2011 5:10 am

Colin:"I..."

he simply looks down and nods in the affirmative.

"He...wanted to offer me family..a life..with stability.."

Cryonix Thu Aug 11, 2011 5:15 am

Elizabeth: Stability? You didn't have that with Micah or Alexis?

Jabberwocky Thu Aug 11, 2011 5:20 am

Colin:"Like I said I...didn't know where I fit in or...where I wanted to fit in..I guess you could say I was lost..."

Cryonix Thu Aug 11, 2011 5:23 am

Lauren: So...you joined him, then?

Elizabeth: How did it start? Little jobs of B and E? Things like that?

Jabberwocky Thu Aug 11, 2011 5:40 am

Colin:"B and E? No no no he never...As far as I knew for the longest time, he was on the level. A humanitarian and all that."

Cryonix Thu Aug 11, 2011 5:44 am

Elizabeth: So what did he have you do?...and how does Lillith work in this?

Jabberwocky Thu Aug 11, 2011 12:49 pm

Colin:"You seem to think he treated me like an employee...He treated me like a son.
Lilith...shes the one person he trusts more then anybody. Basically shes the most important person on this planet to him."

Pockets Thu Aug 11, 2011 9:20 pm

Alexis watches her great-grandmother leave, and looks over at Alex.

Alexis: Here we go, again....

Cruel Britannia Thu Aug 11, 2011 9:22 pm

Alex takes Lexi's hand.

Alex: The matter is in the most qualified hands...... it's not something that you need to concern yourself with.... especially not right now..... this is the kind of thing that put you in here in the first place.

Pockets Thu Aug 11, 2011 9:27 pm

Alexis: I know, I know... it's hard to just sit back though.
