Acheron
The memories wash ashore within my dreams. The flaying of my skin. The yanking out of my hair. The beatings of my inner trust and love. I go numb. I am numb. Yet I feel every touch. Hear every insult. Still. When will it all stop. Please someone wake me up.
"Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen

I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Baby I have been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you.
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
There was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Maybe there’s a God above
But all I’ve ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
It’s not a cry you can hear at night
It’s not somebody who has seen the light
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well, really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light in every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

After enjoying the fresh warm beignets that Tory had brought home earlier that day, I stood and pushed my chair back from the dining table. Brushing powdered sugar off my pants I looked over to see Bas literally covered in the stuff. A huge grin split this face as he saw me look at him and all the delicious mess he was covered in. " Papa! Its good!" he says between bites of his treasure. " I see. Papa had some too." I reply as I pat my stomach and smile. I walk around the table and lean down to kiss his head, dodging the sugar coated hands that come up to my face. Grabbing my packback I pass Tory in the livingroom and pull her to me for a quick kiss. " I'll be back later but I may be late. Halloween makes all the Daimons, Demons and freaks in this town come out. So don't worry. And by the way, your son has quite the sugar high going. Enjoy!" Chuckling I leave the house on St Anne St in the Quarter and walk to the heart of downtown.
My route will take me around the town and thru the cemetary and park. My dark hunters and especially my DOWs are on high alert this night and thru the weekend due to the Voodoo Festival all weekend that starts tonight. I will be sure to stay close around and in the cemetary especially since this night of Halloween and the Festival draw more then its share of worshippers and the weird too. Plus the daimons and demons alike come out in larger numbers because they blend in easier.
Cutting across the park where the Voodoo Festival is setting up, I head for the cemetary in the center of town. The oldest in the Parish its also home to the most demon activity. Simi sits quietly on my chest but I know she is hungry and will enjoy a tasty daimon or demon or two tonight if we get lucky.
Just then my phone vibrates. Pulling it out I see a txt from Chi Hu. :Daimon activity 3 blocks over. They have it under control. Will let you know if trouble: Shoving the phone back in my pocket, I continue on, my senses on hight alert. Tonight is going to be busy.

Bethany
Beth heads down to the beach from her temple. ,she had left Styx with their infant son Ari after he had asked her for some time alone with their son. Knowing the pain he had indured for the decades. As she walks along the sandy beach she stops to stare out at the water, in her thoughts she thinks back to when she had last seen her husband, then to that fateful day when Apollymi had taken her first born from her, and the decades she had sent locked in her own prison and why all because of one man. Achron............even now she still loaths that name and the man who bore it, his fate at the hands of Styx was fitting she only wishes she could have been the one to deliver the blow, her heart still aches though for what she had done to the man she loved, and yet Styx did not hold that against her.
Placing her hands behind her she thinks of the son that was lost to them both, Urain was their son Galen, Apollymi had taken him and placed him with another family and yet she feels the pull of a mother towards him, he had become close to them both lately but her heart aches for the pan she sees in his eyes, he had a loss she knows and wishes above all else that she could change it but she couldn't all she can hope for is that some day Urian will meet another who will heal the wound in his heart.
Hearing her name called, she turns and smiles, all three of the men she loves with every beat of her heart were approaching her, moving slowly she meets them part way, taking Ari from Styx she listens as Styx and Urian tell her of yet another new contraption she needs to learn, with a sigh she smiles and follows them back to her temple longing for the simple times.

Nims
The Nims Jared hads been brooding all day. Something abouts hims Jaden. The Nims wasn’t sure whats that was abouts.. But the Nims stayed all quiets while hims Jared talked to hims Jaden. They both moped abouts and shook thems heads alot, while the Nims Jared stomped around and bellowed loud sometimes. That hurts the Nims ears but he couldn’t cover hims ears while he was only a tattoo on hims Jared body. Afters all thats stompings and bellowings, hims Jared flashed them back to the park.
“ Ok Nims. Off! “ hims Akri Jared ordered. The Nims didn’t wants to leave hims Jared. He liked riding around on hims Jared body. Only hims couldn’t read hims manga’s very well. So, Nims materialized in front of him Jared. “ Why do the Nims have to leaves now Akri?” Nims looked up at Jared with those big puppy dog eyes and sad face.
“I’ve got something I’ve got to do, Nim. I can’t take you. You stay here, and I’ll be back soon.” And with that, Jared vanished. Poof. Gone. Before the Nims could say a word of protest.
The Nims looked at him bunny and bear and shrugged. “Well guys, I guess we’s just haves to go find somethings to do until Akri Jared gets back. Whats to you wants to do?” He raised up both stuffed animals eye level, tilted his head like he was listening, then smiled, showing sharp pointy little teeth.
“ Oks then! If thats what you’s both wants to do then we dos it! Come on! But the Nims wants to start with somes Beignets, k? Then we goes to the Manga’s store. Then we goes to the ketchups store. Then we goes to the park! Yeah me!”
And off he skipped.
