Tori continues past the couch were Larry was. He wasn't there but the light in the bathroom was on and the door was closed. He must've had to pee. Tori paid it no mind and continued to the door. "I wonder who this could be at this hour of night. If it's my aunt coming to check on us again I..." She opens the door and before her is none other than….. "Torcher!!" Along with him was his entourage composed of Havoc who was completely frozen and Hazard, fully charged and three elites who were dressed in torn garb. The elites resembled shadows to help them sift quietly and unseen through the darkness

Torcher stood at the door slightly leaning on the door knob. Tori backed from the door in fear and total shock, she couldn't believe this was happening, at least not now when their guard was down. ~Larry was right. ~ She thought as she stared into the flaring eyes of Torcher. He noticed this and maliciously taunted with a vile grin upon his face, "Long time no see….Tori."

She wanted to scream for Marc but she couldn't find the words, she was breathless and stuttered profusely.

*No…not now! Marc! Marc!! MARC!!!!!!!!!!!!!*

“I wonder what's taking her so long.” Marc asked as he watched the door, waiting for the first sliver of light to break through. He is still in his room sitting diligently as he awaited Tori's return. “Hm. She left the book. Let's take a look at it.”

He picks it up and begins to read. *Aug/23/1976. It's freezing out here and we still haven't found the artifact. I'm beginning to lose hope here. Eon is with us. Supposedly he can feel its presence. I don't believe him. Omari on the other hand is making...*

“Omari? No it can't be.” He looks to the door and inspects the bottom of it. The light wasn't blocked so no one was coming. He continued to read...*Progress. Even digging through the snow. Maybe he's losing his mind, but it's the only lead. Besides. Eon says it's right here beneath us. Wait. He's found it!! It's about time. Now we ca...*

Marc hurriedly flips the page, exchanging glances with the underside of the door. The next page was missing so he continued on. It was then he found something disturbing.

*This beast is chasing us!! Eon, Omari and Altair are handling it the best way they can. We need more help!! Oh Lord no...Eon's been knocked out and Omari is alone. He needs help. He needs...* Then a shrill scream comes from the den. “MARC!!!”

Marc shoots up and runs to the den where he sees Torcher standing over of Tori with a menacing grin.

“Torcher.” Marc said walking to him slowly. “You don't know what you're doing.”

“Torcher flares up and walks to him with equal speed retorting, “No my friend. You don't.”

They both c**k their arms back ready to explode with force and...gotcha. Sorry folks, but you gotta wait until chapter three, Bloodlines. Seeya later.
