Was he invited? Did he just show up on a whim? The later was the correct one. he walked past the front and made his way up to see this Mary he had heard of. He was amazed as the people sidestepped him and watched as he passed. He began to wonder. had any of them seen a Noble level Vampire. Much less Himself...Ohwell. He pulled the hood on his cloak up and crossed his arms together. He entered the main office block.

"I am here to see a one Mary Read..."

He waited then. He was patient. To a point. He stood in the doorway. Watching as all the people slowly stood or whispered to themselves. He smiled adn chuckled. It was good to be back amung mortals.

Marguerite came strolling out to the front gate, which was never used these days because there was not even a way to get through it any longer. She looked the man over suspiciously. But Mary had for whatever reason told her to be courteous and show him in. ?Welcome Monsieur,? she said with a little bow. ?You wish to see Miss Read? Meet me at the abandoned warehouse a block that way,? she motioned with her head to the left. Without another word she went back inside the building. She would then appear at the more commonly used entrance down the street a moment later, by means of a portal that connected the buildings elevators.

She let out a sigh as she showed the vampire into the elevator, staring at him curiously. ?This is most irregular. Most people make appointments, or they don?t get in at all.? When the elevator stopped and the doors opened they were at a long hall way with several doors. She took him to the open one at the very end.

Mary sat in her chair with her hands folded on her desk. She eyed him with polite interest as he entered. Of course she had known a number of noble vampires in her years. If Lestat was unaware of her sire, who was a French noble man from a similar era, she would have been surprised. Had Pierre perhaps sent him to her? No, that wouldn?t make sense... Perhaps he wasn?t the infamous Lestat at all, maybe he was just an imposter claiming the name of the well known vampire. ?A pleasure to finally meet you, Monsieur de Lioncourt." She inclined her head but kept her eyes on him. Yes, she knew all about this man. "So, what has brought you to my door?"

"I seek yo return the Coven back to Glory..."

His voice a hiss. But as she said his name he removed his cloak. It was truely him. His posture the same as the text. Hair color. Eyes. everything. He made his way to stand infront of her. He leaned on her desk and stared into her eyes.

"You and Anne Bonny are to help me...If you two truely are Vampires"

She couldn't help the wide grin that spread across her face. If they were truly vampires? Whatever the hell this man thought, she did not feel any need to prove herself to him. She watched his display of himself with an amused smile.

She didn't understand his bad spoken line about some coven. Which of course made no sense as Lestat had always been one to bring light to the vampires who followed such old ways. She just smiled as she waited for him to explain why on earth he was so rude as to come in to her building and make demands from someone he obviously didn't know much about. He was clearly a long way from home, and in need of learning something about tact.

"In the quiet words of the Virgin Mary... come again?"

"I wish you and Anne to return to the Coven...For to long have you two destroyed our name...You spurn my brightest`s advice..And I say this dear Mary...Nicholai is like my own son!"

He was kinda mad but didnt show it. He looked into her eyes and didnt waver.

"Now either you and Anne can help reuild our races Honor or we will exstinguish all the fires your started adn build oer your pathetic lies"

Her patience was leaving her fast. This kid had some nerve but he hadn?t done his research well. Lestat may be arrogant but he was also charming. At this point she no longer cared who he was though. He had no right to come into the home her and Anne had built from nothing and insult them both. She didn?t care how crazy he was either. He would now have to be dealt with harshly.

Her eyes flashed dangerously, though she spoke evenly, her voice surprisingly calm. ?First off, I have no idea what coven it is you are talking about. Second, I can not return to a coven I was never in. Third, Me and Anne have paid our respects to our sire and our clan as every good vampire is expected to do."

"If anyone is shaming themselves it is you. Coming in here, and making ridiculous demands, statements that do not make sense, all the while insulting me.?

?Then you, a rude intruder in my home, have the nerve to also accuse me of being a liar. You are either insane or highly uneducated. Either way you are full of crap and I don?t care to hear it any more.

"You are no noble and you certainly aren?t who you claim to be. If you speak one more unjust word against me you will be struck down where you stand. I hope you take me seriously. Because I will follow through, I am not a liar and you will not make me one. This will be your only chance to walk out of here alive.?

?I suppose I was wrong to allow you into my domain. Come back here again and you will know it to be a mistake.? A wave of her hand. ?Go. Go live in your delusional fantasy somewhere else. I have no interest in a punk that impersonates someone so poorly. The real Lestat may be arrogant but at least he has style and class about him. Get out now while you still can or you won?t live long enough to regret the decision.?

Marguerite was tensed, ready to move at any moment. Mary was giving him one clear warning. If he did not heed it she knew there would be death. She smiled as she waited for the opportunity to defend her mistress, though she knew it would not be needed. There was a lot the conceded young vampire did not know, even aside from the obvious.

And there he was, dressed in black and looking eternally the same as he always had, standing behind the one that seemed to be threatening the one he actually, for a strange twist, owed his very existance, yes it was the one and the only, Bob.

"So, mister...what is your name again...well who cares what your name is really I am sure its nothing important, or even understandable"

He took a step closer.

"Threaten anybody who works here ever again and I promise you, it will be for the last time, do you understand me. I dont care how noble or special you think you are, when you are in somebody else's house, you treat the owners with a respect, and you will please, please for the love all things dark and evil and demonic, learn how to speak correctly."

He did not seem to notice anybody else in the room at the time and his dark eyes bore right through the intruder with an intensity not often seen. He always seemed to know just to show up to help out any situation, he was connected to this place in strange ways not understood by most.

"I suggest you leave, and never find your way back here again, this is not a request, by the way."

He ignored the loud mouthed one. He was of no use to him so why he evn bothered to speak was far to mind numbing to try and understand. He looked to Mary waiting on his reply.

"So my dear...will you help rebuild with us or shall we go over you?"

Stared blankly for a moment as Lestat flatly ignored everything she had just said, it was like he hadn?t heard her at all. She shook her head, clearly this one did not understand English. She had already made herself crystal clear. She had no interest in someone who thought he was going to scare her into doing anything. The kid didn't just have problems speaking, he had problems hearing too. Placing her head in her hands she spoke to Bob now, which was the only logical course of action left as speaking to the foolish vampire was obviously accomplishing nothing.

"Bob, this kid is giving me a headache. Do something terrible, please."

She had given him the chance to leave on his own, she had given him his fair warning. He was still indirectly threatening her and her company, speaking to him was going nowhere. She should have just killed him right there, indirect threats were still threats all the same. She had told him to leave and he had not heeded her. Whatever happened now she would have no qualms about hurting him. He had been given a chance to talk reasonably with her, he had not done that. He also had his chance to leave, he should have taken it.

Just a smile, that is was all that was needed. "Terrible to him, shall I tear his head off and see if he can regnerate from that?, or perhaps, no I have a better idea, watch this."

Bob, instead of doing anything physically destructive or transforming or anything like that did something different. He snapped his fingers and instantly this intruder's world would blur, everything would lose its shape and form only for a brief few seconds.

The moronic vampire would find him self teleported out side of the building and there the thing would stay, never again would the wanna be vampire enter this building, no matter what method he used he would never get closer than he was right now. Also, when he would eventually try to approach Mary or Anne when they were out of the building he would never get closer than one-hundred feet to them, or for that matter ANY employee of the Bonny Corp, or any of their friends for that matter. Bob did not take lightly to being ignored, not at all. Denial is a much worse fate than punishment.

If Lestat would continue his plans against the BC, he would be forced to do something drastic, this little spell also extended to repel any allies Lestat may have had so spies and tratiors were out of the question.

"There you go, Ive taken out the trash for you. You should never see him again, unless of course you would actually want to. I dont know why you would want to see that thing again. Anything else I can do for you
?"

He just stood there with a smile standing where the idiot once stood, there was no trace of Lestat anywhere.

?Bravo.? She clapped her hands together once. ?That was more effective than killing him would have been.? A bright smile as she rose from her chair and gave him a kiss on the cheek. ?Thank you so much, love. I?ve got my plate far too full to waste my time dealing with pests like that. I knew you would handle things just right. Now you,? she pointed a finger at him in almost an accusing fashion with that pleased smile lightening her features, ?You?ve got class.?

?Do people believe me to be such a push over; they think they can pull sh*t like that on me? They have another thing coming to them. I may be a more tolerant person than most but I do have my limits. And no one? No one is going to push me or the members of my family around while there is still blood pumping through my veins. I may believe in diplomacy and handling things in a civil manner, but contrary to the opinions of some, this is by no means a sign of weakness. I guess there will always be those that you could speak to till you are blue in the face and get nowhere. Actions do speak louder than words. So we must always back up our words with action.?

Mary had an aptitude for business management not just because she was a hard worker, but because she knew how to delegate tasks. Whatever needed being done she usually could figure out the optimum way to get it accomplished. She knew how to put peoples' talents to where they could best be applied. In this case? No one could have handled the situation more appropriately. Death had not even entered into the equation; it had been taken care of without a need for blood shed. All in a days work here at the Bonny Corporation.

::Bob's voice was all she needed to hear and the door to her office opened up along that hallway where Mary's office was at. She'd actually come in to do some work. She understood that tone and just had to come stick her nose in to investigate all this ripping of heads and whatnot being threatened in Mary's Office. After all, she was the spiritual advisor. She arrived in time to see the man disappear and thought she recognized him::

Hey... I think I saw him the bar once with his queenie vampiress goddess, or something.

::She smiled widely at Bob::

Hi You... Long time no see. So, what are yous up to Bob? Are you behaving? That guy wasn't being bad was he?

::Feigned surprise. She knew he was and moved over to give Bob a kiss on the cheek.... but Mary beat her to the other one. Cadence giggled and went on with her move and planted a big 'ol kiss on Bob's cheek that could be heard all the way down the hall::

Yous sUch a hero!

::Giggle! She moved her pretty blues to wink at Mary::

Yous not weak, Mary. It takes someone stronger to be diplomatic. Right Bob?

::Caught alittle off guard by Cadence's Kiss, it does happen sometimes even to him and he blinked:: Well hello Cadence, yeah. I am back now and I will be around alot more.

That guy that was just here? Ive never seen him before. He was threatening friends, and he was warned to leave. I guess he needed alittle..persuasion from me, the hard way.

And, me a hero? As if::Said with a laugh:: I am no hero. I just pretend to be one on occassion. It is good for the image....I wonder if I even have an image::Blink:: Yeah, I was being well behaved. How about you, have you been good since Ive been gone?
Anyway, yeah it takes will power to not give in to those destructive urges and be....diplomatic::Sound advice, although killing the guy would have been alot more effective, because he was sure it would come back to haunt them all in the end::

Its time to get things moving again. I apologize for the trouble and drama that I had caused in the past by trusting and allowing them to take control of ideas that we created, it will not happen again.

::She was caught off guard by his being caught off guard, but she didn't realize why. She just knew something was suddenly different about him. Pretty blues watched Bob intently and for a brief moment she saw something in him, or so she would think... something her mind could only interpret as... Vulnerable. It kinda surprised her::

::blink, she grinned a bit::

I've been good, Bob. Been too busy to be bad so I been good. Been trying to anyway. Although, I hope if I'm ever bad, I get a chance, or two or three... cause sooner or later, every body screw up somehow, somewhere and some more then others. If I screw up, will I be forgiven?

::Yep, Although Cadence had grown some, mentally, she was still as innocent as ever::

Chaos

Yeah, You can mess up several times over and always be given a second chance in this odd life we all seem to have here. ::He sighed and blinked at the same time::

You keep your self busy and stay out of trouble as best you can::Really odd!!::

But now I am afraid I must go. I have a couple of things I have to do before we are all ground into a misty cosmic paste::He laughed and nodded to Mary and Cadence, then he vanished without a trace, and it was as if he was never there at all::
