A thirty-minute warning beeped at him. Durante was nothing but practical. Catch up. Though they weren't far from the rendezvous point. Zephyr followed. Her gun was trained at the floor. She didn't trust him. She probably shouldn't. He was after all a reborn god. Though she would never know it. Today was about capturing Durante. No kill order for a god. It was his own order. He wanted to uncover the remaining traitors in their midst, but now he had his own agenda -- not dying.
The sickness was only a few days past. But he felt healthier than he had before. But a god... he was still wrapping his head around it.
Jer kicked a stone and Zephyr swore. "Fuck you Inquisitor."
Jer laughed. "It's dark down here. Sorry."
She grumbled and pushed past him. "Let me lead."
She didn't get more than a few steps ahead of me before Durante stepped into the swath of light of her gun. "Turn off the light."
Durante looked unfased by the gun she pointed at his face. There was darkness in his eyes. But what Jer saw winding around her -- the fine light. He was channeling at her. Wrapping her in something and she stood there like nothing was the matter -- she was in control. She took a step towards him. "Or what?"
Jer reached stepped up next to her and put his hand on her gun to lower it. She elbowed him hard and it was right back where it had been. "Back off Inquisitor. You are coming with us. Alive preferably -- Dead if I have to shoot you."
