The talk [lucien/delilah]

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

Sidervib had sent a letter to lucien to meet him at the very edge of crow territory at this exact time and date. He wanted to practice and to talk over some serious matters with lucien alone.

Sider stood there in the middle of the street waiting, for the most part the buildings had been deserted, there was no one around, and there wasn't exactly a place for anyone to hide to listen in, it was a perfect spot.

[Lucien DeChain]

Lucien had gotten the letter, indeed. And, HAVING NOTHING ELSE TO DO, YOU KNOW BECAUSE IT'S NOT LIKE HIS TIME WAS TAKEN UP FULLY BY TRAINING UNDER MARCUS, DOING PATROLS, PRACTICING PARKOUR, EATING AND SLEEPING YOU KNOW SO IT'S TOTALLY FINE he was totally ready and able to meet Sidervib at the predesignated spot.

While Sidervib was waiting in the area, after a few moments, with no warning whatsoever, Lucien would appear about 3 feet in front of him with a serious look on his face.

"Hello, Sidervib." He stated with a flat voice.

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"What the fuck?!" Sider nearly jumped out of his skin. "What the hell lucien?! I know i was looking around, and I KNOW i didn't see you any....where the hell did you come from?!"

Sider was completely bewildered, and was unsure what to think. perhaps lucien had died and this was his ghost coming back to torture poor sider for the rest of his days, great...

[Lucien DeChain]

Lucien cracked a smile. No matter how hard he tried to do that with a straight face... It got him every time. It was just too funny.

But now wasn't the time for games.

Lucien tried not to be as frank as he ended up being, but there was some things that were inevitable.

"Nevermind where I came from. Colorado, for the record... You wanted to speak to me, here I am."

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

What the fuck? you just ended up right in front of me and all you say is that you were coming from colorado? what are you a fucking alien, i don't understand. why the....i dont get it, you just APPEARED!!! what the fuck lucien? why dont you just fucking tell me that you are a fucking ghost! you know what if you are a ghost why dont you just fucking kill me right now cause i'm tired of this nonsense BULLSHIT!

Sider stayed silent for a moment and then spoke.

"Lucien...I want to join the crows." Sider stated. "Do you think that i can make it? and if so, how do i join?" Sider asked.

[Lucien DeChain]

At the frankness in reply, Lucien frowned slightly.

"You want to join the Crows?" He asked, a bit confused. He tried to imagine how that would be possible...

"Why?" His question was a simple one, but probably a good place to start.

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"well, it's time to turn my life around, and a militaristic society is the best place to start right?"

[Lucien DeChain]

Lucien would ponder this. There wasn't much to his answer, it seemed a bit too convenient.

"Is that so." He sighed. "Well, all I can do is take you to the First. I think she'd want to talk to you directly, since you used to be under the employ of Mr. Barker."

"In regard to how hard it will be, the difficulty is not getting in, if your intentions are pure. The harder part would be the training." He chuckled, motioning for him to walk with him.

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

Sider followed looking curiously at Lucien.

"Why is that funny? Lucien! Why is that funny?! What's so hard about training? a few push-ups, yes sir, no sir, can i fondle you sir?, and a few more push ups and i'm done right?" Sider asked.

[Lucien DeChain]

If Sider decided to follow along, they would walk and talk as they headed down the deserted road, heading to the Crow's nest.

"Well, you say that, now." He chuckled a bit nervously. "But it's much more grueling than I can describe. And, it goes on for three months. I'm still in month two."

Under Marcus. In the Wolfpack. Not saying I'm a special case, but hey, it has perks being rescued by Crows.

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"I thought training was isolated, no contact with the outside world, that kinda thing."

Sider kept the same pace as lucien walking on his right side.

[Lucien DeChain]

"Yeah, for month one, it is. But, the Crows tend to get a little bit... Open world, if you know what I mean."

He would lead them through to the entrance to the Crow's nest, and there, indeed, would be an armed guard squad waiting for them there.

"Brother. He is on the watch list."

Lucien responded with a slightly more commanding sounding voice than usual. "Yes, Brother, I understand. He is here to speak directly with First Black. I will escort him."

And, after a moment, they would step aside, as Lucien tapped his bluetooth, mumbled a few things into there, and then proceeded to step forward. He flashed a smile at the man who had talked to him.

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

Sider looked around at the majesty of the crows nest, he was awestruck. then he saw lucien.

"That's like the 20th time i've seen you do that! do you have a nervous tap with your ear or what?" Sider asked.

[Lucien DeChain]

He chuckled at the comment. Should I play it off as a twitch...? No, that would be another mean joke.

"Not at all. Just a communication device." He showed Sidervib his ear, and the little piece attached to it.

Walking into the 'nest, he would look around, and walk down one of the long stretching hallways, down towards Delilah's office. He would open the door and lead Sider through.

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

Sider Halted at the doorway.

"Shouldn't we knock first?" Sider asked.
