She searched the Shadow Gallery and found nothing... But wait... It's been 10 years since she's visited the Shadow Gallery... The Scarlett Carson Garden should be all dead!
There at the edge of the garden grew One red flower not yet bloomed.
Evey felt as if she was going to have a panic attack. She didnt know exactly how she felt about this... Nor did she know what the hell was going on!
She ran out of the Shadow Gallery, her heart pounding in her ears. She had a meeting to go to at 6 pm anyway...
5:30 pm and It begins to rain.

The rain had started, but not unexpectedly. The man, tall and dark, was dressed in civilan clothes. He had a hood pulled tight over his head and very little of his face could be seen. He was holding a brown bag that looked like it carried a weight.
Stopping, he placed some money in a cup of a begger woman. She smiled and blessed him. He nodded and moved on. He had no where to be, anyone could tell that just by watching his slow movements. The rain beat on him, soaking his clothes, but he didn't seem to care.
He found his was to a park and lowered himself onto a bench. He watched the peopel rush by with umbrellas. If anyone could see his face, they would have screamed. But no one could. No one could see the expression of worry on his face. He didn't know what to do. Should he go to her? Should he explain himself? Or should he wait, buy his time?

Evey reached the meeting dripping wet... she hasn't used an unbrella in 10 years and doesnt plan on ever again. There were a few people pressent at the meeting place (after all it was not yet 6pm). A couple of people that Evey new by name asked her if she was alright, due to the fact that she was soaked to the bone and was shaking slightly.
"I'm fine thank you. Don't worry about me." She said confidently. The truth was she wasn't shaking because of the rain or the cold.
More people entered the Building. And Evey Got ready to stand at the Podium.

He sat there, drenched in rain, and felt more alive then he had in ten years. Hiding had taken it's tole on him. He felt old... he couldn't remember feeling old in his whole life. Well, maybe once before... when he said goodbye to her.
Soon, the streets were mostly empty. Everyone had rushed inside, at least everyone who had an umbrella. He could see one girl standing under a building, who didn't have an umbrella. He saw her look at him and mutter something. She must think him crazy. A lot of people thought he was crazy.
There was something strange about the girl. He couldn't put his finger on what. She did remind him of someone, he just wished he knew who. He took a deep breath and looked up toward the sky, letting the rain hit his face. He thought of her. He wondered how she was doing. He wondered if she missed him. Wondered if her hair had grown back. He always thought of her when it rained.

The Meeting Drew on... Meeting usually only lasted an hour to an hour and a half but this meeting seemed extra long to Evey. Thoughts raced through her head and she hoped that it would still be raining when she left the meeting...
Her mind was consumed with thoughts of the government, the horror of going back to the way it was... and of thoughts of V...
The Meeting at last drew to a close... She Thanked everyone for coming out, wearing a faux smile, while advising them to help think up a plan or campian...
She left the meeting, The rain had become a quiet drizzel. It made no difference to her as long as she could feel the drops on her skin. The rain calmed her as she walked home.

Evey reached the door step of her apartment complex only to find that she had left her key to the building inside her apartment.
"Bollix" She scowled up at the building.
She pressed the intercom so that another tenant could buzz her in.
Once inside she went to Clean the water off the floor from all the rain... She didn't mind the mess so much, she's used to cleaning it up after 10.
After cleaning the water off the floor she sat on her couch and began to watch the Count of Monty Crisco.

He couldn't help the small smile that played across his face at the look on the woman's face. Well, he thought, at least she thinks I'm crazy. They all say I am on the news anyway.
He listened to her question. It was a good one. He felt the rain slow down and sighed for the lose of it. He stood up slowly, his full hight showing at last. He sometimes forgot to stand up straight. "Humans are of sin nature. It is natural for those in sin to hide from Him who punishes sin, don't you agree."
In a big sweeping movement, he held out his arms. "And if God is in the rain, then what is to keep you from fear of the rain? God has been known to flood the earth. Perphase those who hide, simple fear drowning."
Here he picked up his bag and slung it over his shoulders. "Fears can bring about good things. Or they can bring about bad, It all depends on the one with the phobia." He smiled at her, even though he doubted she could see it.

He was watching her closely now. Studying her, if you would. She was ineresting. At one second she seemed like she was going to snap. The next she was calm, mild. He wanted to laugh at the change in mood that happened so suddenly. It was a rare thing for him to want to laugh.
"Ah," he said and nodded. "There in lies the question. Does one who stands in the presance of God lack Sin, or are they mearly brave? You know, the Hebrew Priests went into a place called 'the holy of holys.' They would be in God's presances. They weren't sinless.
He really did laugh at her second comment. "Well I have no answer for you, miss. But if I think of one, I will seek you out and inform you." He bowed slightly.
