Ghosts'Ghoul Gang

Night's Ablaze

A/N: 

trigger warning: violence and mentions of sexual assault 

Sodo woke roughly to a loud knocking on his bedroom door, the fire ghoul pushed himself up from his bed and blinked the sleep from his still tired eyes. Laying back down was just a yawn away, his body still so warm and covered by the sheets. Another knock made his eyes snap open, the ire ghouls tied back his long hair and slid his mask into place before standing to open his door. On the other side stood the quintessence ghoul, dressed in thick blacks with stocky heavy black boots.

"Morning." Aether smiled.

The fire ghouls tried to close the door, but the other ghouls' toe caught the door. Sodo didn;t open it, but he didnt crush it closed anymore either.

"Sister calls."

The shorter ghoul sighed, "Fine. Good morning, Aether." before moving back inside his room.

The quintessence ghoul followed him in, closing the door tightly with a click. Sodo went to his closet to retrieve the clothes he'd need, when he turned back around he found the larger ghoul comfortable where he sat at Sodo's desk.

"Do you know who it is?"

"Not yet."

The fire ghouls sighed once more before heading to his ensuite bathroom, locking the door behind himself. He set his mask on the counter, as he started toeing into his pants he heard Aether playing a low grungy simple sound on one of his guitars, not loud enough to wake anyone up, it probably wasn't even plugged into an amp. Aether favored a lighter version of the melody he'd just played as Sodo buttoned and strapped his black pants appropriately.

Sodo knew what it meant when he was summoned by Sister Imperator, even more so if Aether was tailing him. But what could he do, it was his job to his family.

Sodo tucked his turtleneck in to his pants, pulling the neck up past his lips, and strapped his mask into place. He buckled into a thin padded vest guard, strapped the Dagger of the Damned to his thigh and pulled on thick socks. He was painfully aware of Aethers familiar chopping guitar playing as he shrugged into a jacket similar to Aethers, but Sodo left his unbuttoned and open. The fire ghoul left the bathroom, looking left, the quintessence ghoul was holding his all white baby.

"Put that back." Sodo told him.

The fire ghoul made his way to his thick soled boots, making sure to lace each one tightly, double knotting and tucking the laces. As he sat on his bed Sodo looked at his clock on his desk that read 7:45 pm, the sun outside was only just setting. It was entirely too early to be awake, the fire ghoul thought.

Aether set the guitar back in its velvety stand with a pat before making his way to the door, watching the shorter shut and lock the door behind them, tucking the key into a small inside zipper pocket of his pants near his tiny waist. The pair made their way quietly down the halls of sleeping ghouls and downstairs, not even the rats were awake to greet them in the halls. At the crossroads they turned left into a pristine hall with tall and heavy doors. Sister Imperators door was open as she was anticipating the two ghouls, Aether closed the door behind them, the ghouls dipping their heads in silent greeting.

"Good evening. Sit." Sister Imperator said motioning at the chairs in front of her desk.

As the ghouls sat she flipped around a folder file; continuing she said, " i don't care how you get it done, but go unnoticed. Age 37, Nathan James is a catholic priest molesting and grooming under the guides of 'god's work'. It has been well documented and proven though I doubt either of you care to check. Transportation is out front, though you'll return on your own. Quintessence, keep him in check tonight, the moon is high. Routine as normal, yes?"
