**INTERLUDE**

*Vespera clawed her way back to consciousness. Her head felt like someone was playing a bass drum between her ears. She was lying on something cold and hard, and blearily she opened her eyes. What? Where? Her eyes played over her surroundings. A bathroom? She tried to sit up, and was brought up short with a clinking noise. Correction. A bathroom where I'm handcuffed to the pipes under the sink. She twisted a bit, and fingered the sore spot on the back of her head, wincing when her fingers encountered the lump. Alright, that explains why I don't remember how I got here. Time to do the rest of the inventory. Nothing else seemed badly injured, but she could feel a scrape on her cheekbone, and the puffiness around it that bespoke a goodsized bruise. She guessed she'd landed on her face when she'd fallen.*

*She looked around the room again, and noticed a ripple right beside her. She smiled in satisfaction, thanking her mother for showing her how to use them. Whoever it was who'd grabbed her, wouldn't be KEEPING her. She shuffled over, and gave that twist to open it... and her concentration promptly fell apart at the burning sensation around her wrists. The cuffs felt like they'd been heated to red hot. She made a noise deep in her throat, and dropped the pattern for the magic. Slowly, too slowly the cuffs returned to body temperature.* Right. Not doing that again.

Venus: Probably a good idea.

*Vespera's head snapped up, and she regretted it immediately when it set off violent protestations in her temples.* What? Who are you? Wait... you're that girl I nearly hit... *She was incredibly confused*

*Venus sauntered into the room, and leaned down. She gripped Vespera's chin in a tight hand, forcing her head up and back. Conversationally.* I don't know what he sees in you. I really don't. He's been terribly confused recently. Between you, and that demon tramp of Raphaels. But I can bring him home. When he comes for you, I'll fix everything that went wrong. But in the mean time, there's someone else who'll be joining us before he gets here.

*Vespera couldn't speak with the grip she had on her jaw, and the back of her head protested the angle. She did the only thing she could. She lashed out with one foot in a feeble kick. Venus dodged it easily, and sunk the toes of one foot into Vespera's midsection. Venus left her retching and gasping for breath on the floor, and left, turning out the lights and leaving her on the bathroom floor in the pitch black, windowless room as she locked the deadbolt that had been installed.*
