Book Of Light

Chapter 9: Finding an ally

James stood up and went to the room now aired out and grabbed his small back and got out new black jeans and replaces his old ripped new ones. He threw the ripped on out the window and tied the bag to his belt loop then put back his wallet in his right back pocket with a silver chain attached. Taking off his torn shirt also throwing it out the window he breaths slowly and his wings grow out and he stretches them and moves them until he gets the feeling of them. He get to the window and jumps, feeling the wind push back his hair he closes his eyes and smiles as he slowly opens his wings. The wind lifted him up and he flew heading out toward where he thinks  his friends are, the city of Rome.  The wind as he flew higher got colder so he lowered him self the best he could and then started to land, he falls on the floor at a short distance "Ow." He gets up then looks around and starts to walk to a cafe shop titled Zeus's Coffee Olympus. he walks in and the man at the register looks at him. "How may I help you sir?" James looks at him blankly disgusted by the smell of coffee "Umm...do you have any tea?" The man shakes his head no "Sorry but if you go down the road the is a tea shop call Poseidon's tea" James thanks him the walks out and goes in the direction. James talks to him self "One where am I? Two who are Zeus and Poseidon?" shaking his head he enters the tea shop and the sweat smell of honey fill his nose. Taking a deep breath he relaxes and smiles looking around at the tea boxes surrounding him. "Wow..this is so cool" "I hope so" a woman's voice came from behind him and he turns around quickly "Sorry sir did not mean to scare you" He sighs in relief and replies back "Its fine..just who are you and how much is the tea here" She smiles "My name is Rachelle and the tea here is $1.50 us. Any more questions?" he nods "Ya, where am I?" She laughs at looks at him "Your in Greece silly." he looks at her and looks at the teas. "Can I have the peppermint-cherry tea?" She nods and grabs it for him then walks up to the counter. She rings him up and he hands her the amount, he thanks her and walks away "Thank you, see ya later." she smiles and waves him good-bye then goes back and restocks her items. She speaks to her self  "So that's James VanHellsing? Hmm...I wounder what he is doing out here so close to Rome?" James put the tea in his bag and his stomach growls, he puts his hand on his stomach. Looking around he spots a restaurant and heads towards it, entering he sit down and the waiter sees him. Walking up to James he takes out a note pad "Hello sir how may I help you? Anything to drink?" James nods and orders a bacon cheeseburger with onion rings along with a cherry coca-cola. The waiter nods then walks off and James takes out a book titled Immortal Blood. Rachelle  walks in then spots James, a waitress walks up to her and she asked to sit at the same booth as James. She nods and Rachelle walks over to James then sits across from him, he looks at her and she smiles "So Mr.VanHellsing, I know were your friends are but here's the catch you help kill Arachne for me and I will lead you to her nest where our friends are.. what do you say?" She held out your hand "Deal or no deal?" he sighs the looks out the window "If it helps me get back Silhouette, then deal" He shakes her hand and she smiles "I was hopping you said that now then, let's get started."
