Klaus threw the last stub of cigarette on the ground and after Celestian had made a careless joke he crushed it beneath his boot
" What can be more mundane"Celestian spoke again,Klaus took his eyes to the road;it was still as busy as it used to be. How on earth were they supposed to find a girl they didn't know. "At least we are in a comfortable cafe unlike Jury and your brother_they would remain standing for as long as the girl remains unseen" Klaus spoke dryly " yeah another food for thought, Klaus"Celestian replied" call it whatever you want" he said waving him off with his hand to show he had no interest in the topic any longer. Celestian was quiet, remembering what Klaus did back in hell made him to rethink all over again " were you trying to protect a cause back then Klaus?"he blurted out that it forced Klaus to look at him " I don't do things because of any other person's interest" " then why were you ready to pay the price even after what Geny did" Klaus looked amused for a moment" what do you think? ,that I did it out of love?"
Celestian remained quiet then he smiled so it would ease off the tension he had brought to their midst " who have you ever loved by the way?" Celestian spoke in a friendly ironic tone. Klaus chuckled in return "maybe it would have gotten to that but back then it was just severe trust" " unbelievable!"Celestian exclaimed disbelievingly" I mean it Celestian and right now I feel stupid" " so what if you see her again would you regret it?" Klaus didn't have time to reply,his eyes were now on the chaos outside in the heavy crowd. A girl partially weary from running but still was, pushing her way frantically through the crowd. The girl headed towards the cafe door and once she bursted in four more people did. Klaus and his partner rose instinctively as if on command as she hid behind Klaus. " Please help me,they won't let me go" she said fearfully. They stood vis a vis the group both glaring at themselves " what do you want from her" Klaus demanded " she knows what she did and that makes her afraid"one of the men said Celestian glanced at her " I swear I don't know what they want from me" she replied " what did she take from you?" Klaus asked " she didn't take anything from us but she's the witch that bothers us. We know just what to do to her" a female in the group responded Klaus gave her an intent gaze then he tried to tell the truth bybher blood... It was an inborn talent; something he could do without taking the blood from her. He frowned when he got his discovery,he gave Celestian a sideways look " that one's a witch from central coven Elemine, I perceive"he informed him then returned his gaze to the opposing group; Celestian opened his jacket revealing a little of his dagger hidden behind his jacket only to the eyes of the opposing group and they understood exactly what he meant. One of them spoke " let's get outta here and you_"he went on pointing at the frightened girl "_we will get you, trust me"he threatened and soon they stormed out of the cafe. Klaus turned to the girl and held her by the arm; a quick vision from her was linked to him: a dark misty room with blood stained concrete floor, beds of which heavy casualties lay bleeding profusely_he saw her lay there too then she twitched and her eyes tore open like she had been startled. Another vision came in immediately after the first flashing through his mind with a strange light 'klaus no!" Was the yellow but the dagger was driven into him that it bursted out through the back, blood escaped his mouth 'klaus!' a voice screamed again
She gasped breaking the lock to avoid more violent visions, Klaus was quick to see the golden tint in her eyes before she blacked out..

Celestian found it hard to hold back his thoughts as he swirled from facing the fire place that shone its green flames behind the grate " okay enough of the silence already ! Now that we've got the girl what are we doing next?"
Sebastian paused in toying with his dagger then he took his eyes to where his brother stood " we take her to Covenant, that's it" he responded after a silent gaze " she's a creature with rights like us so she's got he right to say no" Celestian stated the obvious " she has no home and is aware she's being followed by the coven's agents, she'll surely tag along"Klaus responded lounging into the chaise lounge shaped in the form of a naked sleeping woman " why are you so sure?"Jury asked him,he didn't respond immediately. His mind was on what the girl had showed him by accident " we'll find out when she wakes"he said instead.
The seames manservant came in, interrupting the group" I'm sorry from the deepest part of my heart_"Sylvester started to say but the grumpy one cut in,in his usual bored manner " the stranger's awake"he announced. The four men found their way into the room in which the girl sat surveying the room in amusement. Her curious blue eyes remained on the intruders " we're glad you're awake now" Celestian spoke since no one else did, she looked from one face to another" why am I here,where_ where am I?"she asked nervously Klaus spoke next " you're in green stone alley at Klaus'" " you must be the man that rescued me down there " she said,her voice expressed gratitude. Klaus gave a faint nod. Jury spoke next " we're aware you know you're being followed so we intend to take to covenant. We're not safe ourselves" " the central coven witches are after you all too?"she queried
" We fight for a good cause and so let's say our lives are damned as long as the witches are still in full action" Sebastian informed
" Another food for thought Sebastian"Celestian spoke; Sebastian chuckled " I want to be sure of the people I intend to put my hope on" the girl said seriously. Jury spoke next " I am Jury from poison apples and over there's Sebastian and Celestian,the covenant brothers bonded by seames spirit. This is Klaus the demon from hell and literally the owner of Klaus' " he introduced easily, she nodded slowly " so what's yours?"he went on " i_" she paused looking quite thoughtful "_i don't really seem to be too sure but I remember being called Ellie"she replied finally
" Welcome Ellie" Jury said with a smile
"You're newly damned as well" Parker,the first head mumbled and his joint twin glanced at him

COVENANT CITY ..
Graciana,head of central covenant sat like a posing image as her letters were read for her by her personal assistant;a tall man with a mouth mullet. Her eyes remained on the large glass wall.
"Letters from reform unit and Jury_"she paused, finally looking at Groovesman "good old Jury,I wonder will bring him back to covenant after everything."she ended
" It must be because of the covenant brothers" Groovesman responded
" Whatever it is,I hope Klaus isn't coming along for he will have a lot of explaining to do" with that she swerved the swivel chair she sat on that it had her back at the standing assistant who seemed rather unperturbed
"And a lot of apologies to make"she ended,her face showed that of hurt and old memories she wasn't ready to dive into again,she was afraid Klaus would return but then again she hoped he didn't.
Silently Groovesman made his way out of the office to give her space since from the looks of things she wasn't going to speak for the next eight to seven hours...
