I think no on the first, and just can't see the second.

Aas for an update. Peter Williams is dead. Killed by police while evading arrest.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Zack for is great investigative skills.
Thanks man you are a great cop and an honor to your department. I only wish there were more cops like you.

I would also like to thank Bert for taking care of Duke for me and watching my back when I needed it the most. Its good to know I can trust someone with my life like that. You have always watched my back. Thanks. One day I hope to repay you.

I would like to thank Master Li who is no longer amongst us. He never gave up on me. The man showed more compassion and patience than any ten men. Hell I shot the guy and he still forgave me. I hope you are finally at peace old man.

I would like to also like to tae a moment to remember Celeste Darken right now, or Cee as I knew her as. By now you know we were close. Very close actually; despite what everyone else thought.

I had a cure for her. She refused it. I knew that she had to kill Khavik before she could even think of becoming fully human once again. She was concerned for my life and Molly's. So I abided her wishes. I still have it, the cure. Don't know what I am going to do with it now. Its a mute point I guess.

You are probably thing that I was insane for loving her the way I did. Thing is I saw her for who she really was. Not as some vampire, but a lonely tortured soul that needed companionship. We had a special bond between us. I would have done anything for her, and she would have done the same for me.

After Khavik was dead, and she was human once again, I was going to ask her to marry me. I had the ring and everything.
I still do. I look at it everynight along with Cee's locket with Molly's face in it and my own. Sometimes I sit there alone at night for hours. Other times I just break down and sob uncontrollably until I fall asleep.

I don't expect you to understand, or even care. I jsut want you to remember Celeste as the hero that she was. I know that she saved me.
Rest In Peace Celeste. I hope that one day I will see you again.

How about opening the Celeste Darken Vampire Rehabilitation Center.

Like the Betty Ford Clinic but for, you know, vampires.

Many of us already opened our own though but your has the potential to really stand out.

Don't you have more men to lead to their death Kolya.

Kolya · Post by **Kolya** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 10:32 am

Yea, just as soon as I work through the team I already got.

I found that a little bit of planning and forethought goes a long way in keeping people alive...

I know, it's a bad habit of mine.

Holister · Post by **Holister** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 10:41 am

What? That was almost intelligent.

I do not understand why you say so to him?

Ben seems to have decided to pick some fights Natasha, one with Kolya.

I am venting my inner aggression in a healthy manner against something and/or someone that iritates me.

Doc's orders.

Ron Caliburn · Post by **Ron Caliburn** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 11:32 am

Did the Doc ever define a healthy manner?

Natasha · Post by **Natasha** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 11:34 am

And if he did, he's a horse's ass

Holister · Post by **Holister** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 11:36 am

Ron is giving psychological advice, now I've seen everything. Weren't you in a nut not too long ago Ron.

And Natasha, what language. From us guys I would expect such a thing, but from you?

Its unnatural.

Natasha · Post by **Natasha** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 11:38 am

Why unnatural?

We are all people.

Ron Caliburn · Post by **Ron Caliburn** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 11:41 am

Exactly, I know what this sort of thing is about.

Oh, and for the record, I was discharged a lot longer ago than you were.

No problem at all, glad I could help, Ben. It's a shame that the bastard couldn't have been put through the courts, and set out to serve his term. And Ben, while letting out your stress every once in a while is more than healthy, your hatred for Kolya seems a little... Extreme. Be careful that you don't get obsessive, OK?

Bert_the_Turtle · Post by **Bert_the_Turtle** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 11:45 am

Ben, don't mention it man. Us "normals" need to stick together :lol:

I saw Cee in much the same light as you did, I was the second person, as far as I'm aware, to trust her enough to work with her. And the first had me beat by only a couple weeks. Had things worked out differently, you and I may have traded places there Ben.

I am hereby announcing the creation of a memorial for our fallen. Both one larger memorial and smaller individual memorials which will be created where they fell, or if that is not possible (died in another dimension, underwater, etc.) at a place that would honor them.

I always prefer it when the mortal authorities can deal with the mortal problems in the legal way. Thats why I try to avoid vigilantism when I can.

Holister · Post by **Holister** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 11:50 am

Im ok Zack, no need to worry.

Its just that, that commie prick tries to provoke me.
So, I am just gonna let myself get pissed.

Venting = Good

Repression = Bad

And Bert. Thanks man. You are are a great guy. The memorial idea is great. Where should we errect it thought?

I know, The Great Serpent's Mound in Ohio. I think thats where Professor Lazlo vanished. It would be rather appropriate to build it there.

Natasha · Post by **Natasha** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 11:52 am

Kolya is not a 'commie'.

Ron Caliburn · Post by **Ron Caliburn** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 11:53 am

Isn't that already an indian sacred site or similar? We might want to get permission first.

Bert_the_Turtle · Post by **Bert_the_Turtle** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 12:00 pm

It would, but I'm leary of erecting anything permanent where someone up and vanished. But I'm not opposed to the idea.

AS for, uhh, Cee's I've already taken steps to purchase the Cathedral itself.

Ron Caliburn · Post by **Ron Caliburn** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 12:35 pm

Think the diocsee is willing to sell?

Bert_the_Turtle · Post by **Bert_the_Turtle** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 12:47 pm

Well, when I explain what happened, mention the expansive tunnel network undermining the foundation and that its only a matter of time before the entire thing is swallowed up by the earth...

Ron Caliburn · Post by **Ron Caliburn** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 12:50 pm

You going to give them the complete story then?

Bert_the_Turtle · Post by **Bert_the_Turtle** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 12:55 pm

Just enough to get what I want. The last thing I need are the Knights Templar knocking on my door.

Ron Caliburn · Post by **Ron Caliburn** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 1:05 pm

Last I checked, the Knights Templar and the Church had a rather fatal falling out.

Bert_the_Turtle · Post by **Bert_the_Turtle** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 1:06 pm

And you don't think the former has Agents in the latter?

Ron Caliburn · Post by **Ron Caliburn** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 11:50 pm

Why do you think they would come after you then?
