Darin replies frankly. "You neglected to mention the hammer at first...and now you expect me to hand it over to someone. I caught Icaru..pay me for that and then buzz off. I'll decide what to do with the hammer on my own."

"Kuro," she murmured, bowing before Icaru on her hands and knees, prostrating herself. "A devoted follower of Bael. I've been looking for you; I want to serve you in the name of our lord."

The voice over the phone begins to sound irritated. "Look, before you left america I tried to tell you what was going on and we only just discovered that Icaru was after the hammer but obviously you were ignoring me! So just hand over the hammer and..you know what..forget it. The boss is going to be there in a few moments to sort this crap out and pay you your stupid money, pull this crap with him at your own risk." Smith slams the phone down loudly ending the call with Darin.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Icaru looks down at Kuro for several silent moments before snarling at her. "Get up! You must only prostrate yourself before The Lord of Pain and his mate. You should know that if you bear the needle."

"Rude jerk! Only a god himself could convince me that I'd be giving the hammer to safe hands. I'm not just going to hand it over to a guy with one hand that I just met without good reason. Argh!" Darin grits his teeth in anger and in pain from his shoulder wound.

Kuro scrambles to get up, wincing slightly as she did so. "I was hoping to show my devotion to them through you, m'lord."

In a sudden flash, another being appears near Darin and looks over. "Hello Darin. I am Omnium. I'd like to apoligize for Smith's tendancy to use the 'need to know' basis. Tyr here is actually a god, the brother of Thor and the hammer is needed to wake him. And you will be payed your money for stopping Icaru's plans and I will offer you a gift if you just hand the hammer to Tyr already."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Icaru takes out a slim, dull and jagged blade and hands it to Kuro hilt first. "Show your devotion by removing this bullet and cleaning the wound."

"Yes, m'lord," Kuro remarked. She didn't bother being gentle either; if he couldn't take this, he wasn't the man she thought she was. Instead of seeking to make it as painless as possible, she just digs it out as fast as she can. "I don't have any water on me; we came in a hurry. Do you have a waterskin?"

"Yeah..that would have been useful information. Let Smith know if I see him again, I'm punching him in the jaw." Darin holds out the hammer to Omnium. "I'm going to take a nice long vacation..if you need anything..hell you know how to find me."

Omnium accepts the hammer only to hand it to Tyr(for when Alex gets back) in amusement. "Of course. And I think you deserve a short trip back home. You can probably get some medical treatment there." Omnium puts a hand on Darin's uninjured shoulder before using the gateway to teleport back to america and where Darin's office is. (moving that part back to America in a new topic)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Icaru gives a low hiss through his teeth as Kuro digs the bullet out but grins anyways. "Good..good." He doesnt answer her right away before suddenly reaching out with his good arm and rips apart the clothes around her wounded arm. "Hold still." He then digs his finger/s in to pull the bullet out of her own arm while keeping a fevered grip on her arm to reduce the movement from her squirming.

Kuro trembles, gasping; like before, it's hard to tell the difference between a sound of pain or a sound of pleasure. Still, it takes a great deal of effort on her part to keep from falling to her knees, and she doesn't have it in her to speak once the bullet is actually removed. Still, she manages a weak smile for Icaru.

Icaru looks Kuro in the eyes, his own eyes cold and unfeeling despite the fading grin on his face. "...You will do. Bind your arm, we have failed Bael in losing the hammer. But we can still attone if we can convert the land of Africa to him." He begins to bind his own shoulder with the ripped cloth from Kuro's shirt tightly before calmly walking towards the exit of the mine.

Kuro fixes up her own arm with what remains of her sleeve, hastening to follow Icaru. "M'lord, how are we going to do that? I've never converted anyone before; please, teach me."

Icaru doesnt even look at her, simply leaving it up to her to follow him or not. "We will convert any who wise enough to recognize the Lord of Pain as there masters...and we will deliver those who refuse to our master to give them just punishment."
(Move topic now or something..?)
