Late the next afternoon a somewhat puzzled Zhismi tracked the Elf down to the garden where she sat patting a rather unimpressed cat. The cat swished her tail with annoyance at the disturbance as the Elf smiled at the messenger. The young man handed her a scrap of paper that reeked of handling by gypsy, Vampire, and Demon, so she expected half the house to have already read the message. He stood nearby his strong olive face patient as he waited instruction. Having others read her message was one thing, being able to decipher what looked like a crudely drawn house was another, and she smiled at the contents before thanking the puzzled messenger. She waited until the yellow sun was bleeding into the faded orange that signalled sunset before attempting to drag a protesting Florian out to the garage.
“I don’t think so,” he bitterly replied to her request. “Sending Bubla to the Martyc caused me more trouble than you will know and maxed out my card.”
“But he be very fond of bubbles. I know this be so. Maybe he’s shy from getting some from a Vampire.”
Florian gave her a glare, but he couldn’t hide the edges of worry creasing his face and she realised that he really was afraid of the demon.
“Don’t fuss,” she attempted to comfort him. “I will tell him that you be my special friend and he will not keep angry. I will tell him to give you money for the bubbles.”
Florian paled at the suggestion of her demanding cash from the Xatn. “God no!” he squealed.
Zyre patted his arm. “Then all is good and we go to town.”

“Why are you going left of the sun when the city middle tis not there?”
Florian pretended not to hear and his stand as a weaker Vampire against the wishes of the Elf was rather foolhardy. Too many thoughts buzzed about her mind because not only having to work out, but also implement a plan was disturbing enough for her to get straight to the point. Florian might have thought he had the upper hand until he discovered the steering wheel refused to make a left turn. He glanced over at his passenger and the sight that greeted his disturbed eyes had him quail more than any disapproval from his Herald. The being that met his gaze was no longer the quaint creature of human mythology. Here was the magical adversary of demon history, the one with the capacity to decimate an opponent without a backward glance. Zyre had shown the stormy teal of her eyes when annoyed, the clear green when amused, but never had she revealed to the Vampire the stark, crystalline, sapphire blue of battle. The ruby of her lips was now
