There comes a time when the operation of the machine is so odious, that you cannot even tacitly participate. You've got to place your bodies on the gears, the wheels, all the mechanisms, and you've got to indicate to those who own it, and those who run it, that unless you are free, the machine will be prevented from working at all. - Utah Phillips.

Bassarov yawns. "Yes, it is nice." He says with a smile. "It has been great talking to you Vissarion. You seem very familiar to me, like an old friend. I hope we are able to spend more time together." He says, but is getting a little tired.

I wrap seemingly my whole body around her, and before venturing into unexplored territory, I feel myself come to a hault.
"Salome... I just... I don't want you to do this because of Lillia, or because you think I don't love you." I say, brushing a trembling hand against her cheek, and still breathing heavily.
"I just... I'm not convinced you want to do this..."

"As do I." I say to him, though I feel odd knowing that he is my father but being unable to talk to him on those terms... "I really should go check up on Li. Sorry but if you'll excuse me..." I say as I stand up. "I'll catch up with you either tommorow or soon. Talk to you then." I then walk out the door and back to my room.

Bassarov says goodbye to Vissarion and turns to Henna. "I suppose I should go. I will see you later then. It was a nice visit. Thanks for introducing me to Li and Vissarion." And with that, Bassarov leaves her apartment and heads back to his hotel room,

"Lilia..." I hiss venomously. "...you think that?!" I say and push his shoulders angrily. I move away from him and put my clothes back on, feeling more angry than I have in perhaps years. "You think there's something wrong with me. I...try very hard..." "....she's a wretched creature. I can't stand her. I can't stand her. I am trying very hard to ..." I say and am too frustrated and angry for words. "Let's just go. I am sure you can find your way back. It is starting to get light out anyway..."
"And no....It wasn't about her. But you can think what you like..." I say, though I am not convinced myself that it wasn't about her. We drive off and I stare out the window silently.

I decide that it's probably best not to say anything, and immediately feel like an ass. The fact that we were lost not too long ago seems not to bother me, since I happened to find the way back to the main road with little trouble. The ride back is long and quiet, and we finally reach the house. I hop out of the car, and follow behind Salome into the house, who doesn't say anything to me.

Stacy sat down her back against a tree in a lonely feild thinking of Aingeal. Who was left with Shizue. She didn't know what was wrong. They were just depressed. They would get into their little squabbles every now and then but that was it. She didn't really know why she came out here. All she knew was that she said something that made Shizue feel bad.
"Can I turn back time? What would I give to behold the smile, the face of love?"

Adrik finishes up his business in Japan. He receives a letter from Shura's mother, which promts him to send her some money. Once he has done this, he packs up his things and heads to the airport. His destination is London, where he will meet up with Victoria and Calithin. He feels that he must be cautious since he doesn't want to jeopardize his job at the IMF. However, he figures he can offer advice and guidance if needed without involving himself too heavily in the events which will transpire there.

I shake my head.
"I... I don't think so. Seems to me they must have moved. I really... I don't remember even where I used to live, or how to get there... Thats odd..."
I try thinking about it longer, but everythign only gets more confusing.
"I.. I just dont know."

"I think that I am going with their plan. Seems to me the right thing to do. "
I smile. More like, because it causes so much chaos. Chaos bring me happiness. Chaos and pain. This shall all work out quite nicely.

Ater spending a couple of hours of crying, Aingeal started crying a bit. I wipe my tears and went to her room. I pick her up and walk around with her. Maybe she was crying because she miss Stace and want to know where she is.
I don't what to tell her. I can't say that she's left and maybe not coming for us. I took her to the kitchen and made her favorite snack.

Stacy wiped her tears away and got up. She pulled out a cell phone and called some random people for business with the club she used to own. She finished then decided to listen to some music., She put on her ipod and began to listen to some Lamb of God - Laid to Rest. She wnt to the apartment and sat down with Her car keys in hand.
"I'm sorry Shizue..."
