 Alice knew that her time was growing near. She never felt that anyone's death could be changed or rewritten, but she had to try. She knew that soon her death would come and at least she would go down with a fight. Alice remembered one day at work, some customers talked about "Angel Investigations". In her vision of how she would die, Alice remembered she was going to be murdered; who better to help her than an investigator who can stop her murder. She pulled out her laptop and looked for a number to call and she found it. She went to the communityphone downstairs in the dorms and picked it up. "What do I say, will they think I am crazy if I tell them that I think something bad is going to happen?" She whispered to herself quietly. She then swiped her ID through the side and called. The phone rang for a few seconds before she heard an answer.((your turn Angel))

Angel neared the couch before a continuous sound caught his attention. The phone was ringing. He picked it up, ready for another case.
"Angel Investigations."
He answered. His tone was welcoming, but it held a deep hidden emptiness... a quality of which over the years he had come to notice.

"Hello, could you help me? I know someone is going to try and kill me and I don't feel safe here." Alice said. She was trying to stay calm. She was very nervous that he couldn't help her or she wouldn't have the money to get Angel investigations to help.

Angel heard a girl's voice over the phone.
"Alright... calm down. How far are you away from...Remay and Callsbury Street?"
The phone gave the vampire enough information to tell him she was in the Terrin District...

"I think it is too dangerous. It's still dark outside."Alice said. "I am staying in dorm A7 room 721 at the Terrin College of Science." She bit her lip as she turned and looked out the glass lobby doors. She stood behind the other side of the public phone to get somewhat out of sight still holding the phone.((She is immune to her poison))

Terrin College. That was well half way across the district. No way could Angel get there in time, and make it back before the sun gave him a warm greeting.
"Alright, what do you... know so far?"
He pulled back on his coat as he spoke into the phone, the device resting on his shoulder.

"He is a tall man, who seems to be like a priest, and murders people at when it is dark... I have dreams where he finds me in the dark and no matter what I do I can't escape." Alice said. She felt as though he wouldn't buy her story. "Do you believe in Magic?" She whispered to him, hoping that he wouldn't say anything along the lines of... "What the F*ç√ are you talking about." or "How should I know?"

He listened intently, recognizing pretty quickly that this girl asked the correct... 'person' to help. Like a priest...? Angel paused after her question.
"...we need to talk face to face. I can't help if you're half a city away."
He picked the phone up his shoulder as soon as his coat was pulled on.
"I... don't believe I caught your name."
She never said it. He'd remember...

"My name is Alice Grale... if you don't come get me tonight I will come over after I get off work at 3:30pm. Is that all right?" Alice said. She knew that for the most part it was safer during the day to travel anyway. And she would see which way she could meet this person quicker. She wondered if she was forgetting something... "Oh, and I never caught your name."

"Right... daytime travel is safer."
Not for me.
He nodded, making a confirming sound.
"It's Angel."

"Right, I will see you tomorrow no later than 3:45 OK. My work is very close to your address so it shouldn't take that long to get there. Thank you." She hung up the phone and ran towards the hallway away from the glass doors on the main floor and up to her room.
"Just one work day and I can go somewhere safe." Alice whispered to herself. She laid down in her bed to get a 2 hour nap before she had to go to work.

 Kane rolled into town. He was searching all night for demons. "Where do I find any demons around this god forsaken place?" He said. It was almost noon and Kane decided to stop and wait to see if a demon would come across him. He sat on his motorcycle near some chain fast food places including Mac Burger, Otter-Star, and SubClub. ((Alice went to work at 9 am. at the very same Otter-Star Soulless!!))

Angel sat at his desk, staring out at the closed shades. The old fashioned was what he prefered... and shades did quite nicely.It was a couple hours till the expected meeting time... and he had his watch out, open on the desk infront of him. Angel stared at it, each tick feeling like it extended out forever. Nostalgia took over as the vampire waited in the slow ticking for Alice.

Alice had just got off work and went outside. "See you later." Alice waived at her co-workers at the coffee shop. She opened the door and sensed that there was a demon near by. She looked both ways, she could smell it, although it mixed with the smell of coffee it was there. At the end of the street there was a man dressed like a priest. He was sitting on his motorcycle smoking. She went back into the the coffee shop. She used the backdoor to get to her moped parked in the alleyway. She hopped on going the opposite direction from where the man was parked with his Harley. After getting away from where he was she began to head towards the address that Angel gave her.
The whole time she felt like she was being followed but she was able to make it there in one piece. She walked up to the door, the glass imprinted with Angel Investigations. She knocked lightly on the door. "Hello. Angel?"

At the sound of a knock, Angel stood from his chair. He walked over, opening the door to the office. Upon moving to the district, he chose an office where the door would normally be in shadow... so sunlight wouldn't meet him at the same time as clients.
"Come in, Alice."
He welcomed, immediately looking around to observe the situation before anything else was said. In several ways, the world never changed.
