Chapter 23.2

"Do you know what a boyfriend is?" Fear asked.

"No. I could ask Tampri. He may know." Whisper suggested. Fear puffed.

"I just want to sleep..." He said. Whisper laughed at him.

"You always want to sleep." Whisper joked.

-------------------------------------

They had all met up at the house and had started making their plans.

"All the demons are worried about is the strength of the third kingdom." Gar stated from his seat on one of the couches. Talim was sitting on his right with Inasa on the left.

"Uriel told us to only report on their knowledge." Felos said.

"The council only wants to know about how the growth rate is doing." Whisper muttered. Fear sighed and leaned his head back on the couch with his arms on the back. Whisper was sitting next to him.

"Well we can figure that all out at the school." Talim said, boredom showing in his tone.

"That is true." Inasa commented.

"Well then we should be done with this stupid mission in a few days." Talim growled.

"Did you find anything you needed to look at while you were out?" Whisper asked.

"We found some humans standing by a car with guns. Didn't look very intimidating, but no one approached them." Gar answered.

"We only found a few people in a shop drinking some sort of cafine drink and working on some kind of human device, or they were reading books." Adilo said.

"Well I'm going to bed, better hurry the night along. I'm homesick already." Fear murmured and got up from the couch and walked down the hallway. Whisper sighed.

"You're free to leave I suppose." Whisper said. They all left as well.

-------------------------------------

Whisper had stayed in the living room and was reading a book Fury had given her. It was a type of journal that Fury had found that belonged to her mother Luar.

"Whisper?" Fear asked from the hallway. The daughter of Death looked up at him. He was leaning on the wall, his eyes narrowed to keep out the light.

"What are you doing up so late?" Fear asked as he walked over to her.

"Reading." Whisper answered nonchalantly. Fear looked over at the book when he fell down next to her.

"Is that a.. journal?" He asked.

"Yes. It was my mothers." Whisper said. Fear stared at her. How could she bare to read it?

"Do you.. did you ever see her.. before she died?" Fear asked gently. Whispers ice blue eyes softened with kind sorrow.

"Only for a while. She had been killed by a demon. He had poisoned her and my father found her when she was starting to slip away." Whisper answered. Fear looked away. Sounded some what familiar to how his family had died.

"But I do not grieve as harshly as I used to. She is in the city of the dead. I visit her every now and again, but its not the same as when I was a child." Whisper said. Fear wrapped an arm around her.

"We can go see her after all of this if you want. I would like to meet your mother." Fear suggested. Whisper closed the book.

"She has been eager to see you as well." WhIsper answered. He kissed the top of her head.

"I would really enjoy to just sleep out here on the couch with you, but the others might react strangely to it. Come on. You need to sleep too." Fear said as he stood up. Whisper got and gasped when Fear picked her up bridal style.

"I got you." He joked as he carried her to the door to the girls room. He put her down. Whisper wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.

He kissed back and hugged her gently. Fear pulled away.

"Alright. Bed time missy." He said with a grin, one of his fangs poking out. Whisper smiled and kissed him on the cheek then went into the room.

He sighed and went into his own room that he shared with the others.
