{Colliding Paths} The Collision

Meison Declain

April 15 

*The plane starts its descent and I regret not taking the controls. Some fuck up was learning to fly on my dime and it wouldn't happen again. I turn my phone on and a simple text assures me that he will no longer be of concern. Out the window, I can see the Dome. I should have warned Aineof my arrival but I liked the element of surprise.*

Elise Chase *Sitting in their quarters, her mind turned to the next holiday and her thoughts immediately thought of Rennie and Nova. The most recent mother-to-be's for The Order. She knew both of them were already well stocked with supplies for their future sons but it was the ladies themselves that had her attention. Making her mind up that she needed a trip out, she gathered her keys and purse then left a note for Tegan that she would be back shortly.*

Meison Declain *My brow furrowed in distaste after the landing, I quickly leave the jet behind and settle into the black SUV I had ordered for delivery while in flight. The vehicle responds to my touch like I need and the pilot is forgotten as I make my way to the Dome. I wonder if Dia will be holed up, hiding from the sun upon my arrival.*

Elise Chase *Finding a parking place takes more time than she had planned. She finally parks across the shopping center from where she needs to go. Dreading walking through the crowd now, she takes a deep breath and centers herself, finding the thoughts of the least evil voice she could.as T had taught her to do. She briefly thought of turning around but then decided to go on about her errand. Grabbing her purse, she quickly made her way into the Dome.*

Meison Declain *Intent on catching up on everything as soon possible, my eyes flicker over all of the open businesses and the bustling crowd. Stupid little humans, milling about like ants. I smirk thinking about standing in the middle of them all and revealing my true self. I can't help but chuckle as I think of the reactions.*

Elise Chase *Just a few steps inside the building, her temples pound and a voice overrides everything else. Laughter, but not the fun kind. Descriptions of a blood bath flood her head and she stops walking. Holding her head, she closes her eyes and looks down trying desperately to refocus. People bump into her and she blindly moves to the edge of the crowd until she runs into a man. As he catches her elbow, the thoughts stop immediately.*

Meison Declain Fuck *As soon as I touch the woman, I know what she is. The scent should have warned me but I had been preoccupied. I look at her closer and realize she is one of the mates of the order. I briefly entertain the thought of taking her, like we had done with that ex-enforcement agent,Mathias.*

Elise Chase *Her heart rate spiked when she looked up at the man and heard his exclamation. Shaking her head, she tried to pull her arm out of his grasp. His hold tightened and she knew the fear streaming through her would have already alerted Tegan. Pulling again, he let her go but the absence of his thoughts alerted her that he was more than just human. In fact, he had silenced all the surrounding thoughts too. Curiosity edged at her but safety was more important and she took a step back.*

Meison Declain *I chuckled at the frightened female and took a step forward before deciding to let her go. I had other plans that held my immediate attention but I made a note to find out more information on her. I lean forward and whisper near her ear.* Run, delicia, before I change my mind

Elise Chase *Blinking, she took his offer and moved away from him, letting the crowd swallow her up. She turned, her errand forgotten, as she made haste back to her car. Locking the doors even though she knew it wouldn't be a deterrent for him, gave her a small sense of security. Her heart was still pounding while she made her way back to the compound, knowing that she would need to give a detailed account of what happened, she attempted to replay everything in her head. But she had touched evil. Her hands shook as she made her way back to the one person who could erase it.*
