More things to worry about...
The only good news of the day was that Beth woke up from her self induced coma. The list of things for me to stress out about is growing....
First troubling thing, our initial attempt to physically break into the Order of the Spear's base after Ramone took down the magical defenses did not go unnoticed. SO non-unnoticed that the OotS sent in this very huge demon to 'distract' us. Don't want to bother with the gory details, but eventually we killed it. Then as we went into the house to see what kind of trap door they escaped too, I noticed Ramone's clothes lying on the house's floor. I think he really needs to work on his transportation spell, since it seems eveytime he uses it he looses his clothes. Not that it's a bad thing...I mean...err...what I mean is that worse things could happen instead of loosing ones clothes when a spell backlashes. Anywho, strangely one of the head henchmen from the Order was tied up with a red scarf like a christmas present at the foot of the trap door. Aparently someone is helping us out, but who?
Just about then Ramone shows up safe and sound wearing one of the leotards he keeps in his knapsack just in case he needs to activate the S.M.A.R.T.A.S.S. spell. He then cast a really powerful truth spell on our prisoner. Basically what we found out from him is that the Spear is actually the name of a powerful warlock that has been trapped between dimensions and the Order is trying to set him free, which is why they captured Nick. He unintentionally started the spell and he has to finish it. Bastard. What happens if the warlock is set free? Well, he'll cast a spell that will sever all magical ties to Earth. That means no demons or vampires, but it also means no good powers, like Ramone's telekinesis that helps him find his way around almost as well as someone who can see, or my slayer powers, or the powers that are keeping Beth alive, and who knows what else. I don't know, but something just doesn't seem right with this. It looks good on the surface, on paper it would seem that we should be working on their side, but suffice to say my gut is twisting while I think about this. I get the feeling that something horrible will happen as a result of this spell, but I have no idea what.
Mitran, however, seems to like the idea. I can't blame him really, I mean demons did kill his father, and if the spell is completed that means no more demons. Maybe he'll change his mind once we get more information on what this spell truly does. One thing I've picked up from seeing the product of Ramone's transportation spells is that the more powerful the spell, the more powerful the side effect.
Now that I've had the chance to calm down a bit, I think I might try to make amends with Mitran or something. But what to do? I could get him flowers, but he really doesn't strike me as the flowery type. I could get him a card, but there's really not any Hallmark cards that say, 'sorry I smacked you over the table, can we be friends?' Hmm, maybe I'll get him a carton of cigarettes. He seems to really like them. I've noticed that he usually rolls his own, but I have seen him smoke Marlboros out on patrols...god my car smells like those now, how am I going get that smell out before Michael starts to think I took up smok--OH GOD! Michael! I was supposed to meet him tonight at my apartment for dinner! But then Mitran and me....and then the demon...and the Order of the Spear...and.....oh no, how am I going to find an excuse for this one? I can't tell him the truth. If he found out that I was risking my life like this.....
