One.. by... one.
They only fall... a-part.
Can it be.. undone?

He just sighed in response.

"I.... I don't know." he mumbled.

"Really. I... I don't know." he said.

"I had, essentially, a nightmare." he told her. "Which is to say, I experienced a very vivid and disconcerting flashback while undergoing that little recharge period." he clarified.

"And I need someone to talk to about it." he continued.

"Specifically, one of a more... demonic persuasion." he went on.

"I'll explain more fully later, but I'm meeting with Anya to try and clear my head a little." he then said further.

"Not sure when I'll be back, admittedly."

"Yeah, sure." She said simply.

"Go make sure your own head is screwed on straight, will you?" She asked with a light laugh. "I don't need you losing your shit."

"So go on. You know I'll be cool without you here. And I know you're good on your own too."

He nodded in response.

"Yep." he said.

"Talk to you later." he told her.

"Have fun in the game." he finished, giving her a quick kiss.

He sighed as he approached the bar and looked at his watch.

"11 minutes." he said.

"Wonder if she's here already..." he mumbled, opening the doors to the bar and stepping inside, scanning for the woman he was meeting up with.

It didn't take long before he saw the white haired lady who looked like she could easily be a rather respectable - if not intimidating, yet still very alluring - scientist or something. As he saw her almost black eyes flick over to him, seeming to be aware of his presence very quickly, she got to her feet.

"Leave me alone." She said to the one who was trying to make a play for her, before just turning and heading to where Azazel was, not paying any heed to whether or not the one that was trying to make a play for her was trying to follow her or not.

"....." Azazel was silent as he sae her coming towards him... and saw the one that was there following her.

"However, before he could say anything, they heard the one that tended to the bar... and owned the place... speak up.

[b]"Oi!"
he yelled.

"The lady said to mess off!" he told him.

"Now either get out of here now, and take the side door, or I'll have ol' Brian throw you out!" he added, Brian being a security guard/bouncer there.

Azazel then sighed.

"I hate people sometimes." he muttered to the woman when she was close enough.

She was silent as she looked back at the one that was following her.

"Beat it." She half snapped, her voice sharper than one would have expected with how she looked. When they hesitated, she just rolled her eyes.

"Hey Brian!" She called kindly to the bouncer.

".... I'm not so sure he'll leave me alone tonight."

A man that was over 6 feet tall and clearly built muscle in his free time approached.

"Yo." he said to her.

"This clown bothering you?" he asked, cracking his knuckles.

When she nodded, he responded by... picking the man up by the back of his neck.

"Right then." he muttered.

"Out the BACK door with you." he told him.

"It's where the vermin go." he reasoned, as he carried the cursing man away, with insults towards Anya thrown into the tirade.

Anya just rolled her eyes.

"There are some seedy people in here. Nice to see them tossed out." She commented.

"anyhow, shall we?" She asked.

"I do believe you wanted to get a good hard drink instead of something distasteful."

Azazel nodded.

"Yes." he replied.

"That would be great." he told her as they approached the bar.

The man there just smiled at them.

"Hello, hello." he greeted them.

"Hey Cyril." Azazel replied.

"What can I get for ya?" Cyril then asked them.

"I'm honestly not picky, if I'm being honest." anya admitted with a laugh.

"although I suppose I could go for one of those Heaven sent that you came up with last month." She added.

"Those things are too good to be legal, I swear."

Azazel just smirked.

"Make that 2." he said.

"Gotcha." Cyril replied.

"Anything to eat?" he asked.

"Nachos Supreme-o for me." Azazel responded.

"Anything for you?" he then asked Anya.

"It's on me, seeing as I called this meeting." he reasoned.

He knew that the two of them didn't really need sustenence from this realm, but damned if they didn't have taste buds, and found of the food on the mortal plane to be pretty damn good.

"One of those nacho wraps would be fantastic." Was Anya's answer.

"The one with the chips and the spice." she added, not sure if that was needed, or super descriptive.

"If you have the stuff in stock for that."

Cyril just smirked.

"Of course." he replied.

"Take a seat and I'll be there with them." he told them before heading into the back.

"Right." Azazel said.

"Let's sit down." he told her.

"Table, booth, or here at the bar?" he asked, as Brian walked past, having done what he was doing.

"Trash has been taken out." he told Anya.

"Thank you, Brian." Anya said with a soft smile.

"And I really ain't picky." She then said, answering Azazel's question.

"But let's go to a booth. It's a bit more private, for what we want to talk about."

Azazel nodded in response, and the two of them made their way to a booth and sat down on opposite sides, facing each other.

There was silence for a moment, before Azazel sighed.

"It's like I was really there." he opened with.

"I could feel the cold air, the snow, the almost oppressive darkness." he continued.

"Like..." he went on, before just trailing off.

"It took me a moment when I 'woke up' to realise where I was." he then said.

"It was... harrowing, to understate it."

Anya just sighed, heavily.

"To be honest, I'd be alarmed if it wasn't." she commented.

"Those things are vicious and vile enough to eb rejected from hell." She continued.

"I really hope that we aren't going to have to deal with one again... not sure we'd survive it, if I'm being honest."

"...." Azazel just nodded.

"Yeah." he said.

"Yeah, they're... the fact that they can prey on demons says a lot." he muttered.

"The fact that they exist in the first place is... alarming." he mumbled further.

"But you'd better be careful." he warned her.

"I know that both of our pasts are littered with things that that thing would love to hijack." he said. "I don't want it going after you." he went on, before pausing again.

"...we're... free of that." he then said, seemingly out of nowhere, and in a non-sequiter. But Anya knew what he was talking about. His flashback... he never wanted to go back to that ever again. It seemed like he was trying to reassure himself on it.

"we are. Don't worry... we are." Anya assured him.

"I've had it come haunt me before like this. Don't oworry about it." She continued.

"Just because you had one flashback from then, doesn't mean that they're haunting you again."

"Right, yeah." he said further.

He then sighed heavily, and calmed himself down a little, as Cyril arrived with their drinks.

"Here ya go." he told them.

"Food'll be out soon." he said.

"Thanks, Cyril." Azazel said to him.

"No worries." the man replied, before heading off once more.

"Did you see Aedan or Cain?" Anya asked.

"If they're all right, then chances are it was just a memory, nothing more." She added
