  We stood at the large front door. We barged in and showed anyone who got in our way who's boss. They remained either near death or were dead. We waited as Azure looked at the main room door. She gave it an maniacal grin.

"What's up Assholes! It's my party and I'll cry if I want to~" Azure shouted after she kicked open the door as a welcome to her father.

"Azure," Her father stood up and looked at all of us, "What is the meaning of this!"

"If any of you want a chance of survival you better leave right now," Azure cracked her neck, "Except you Nathan Joy. You die either way."

"What on earth are you talking about?" Nathan said, "I should never have trusted that insanity home. You need more than a physiatrist."

He reached for the tranquilizer gun he had on his wall. I threw my shield at him, removing his right hand. He screamed and fell onto his knees while holding his arm.

"Don't even think about it," I hated him, "Your fate is sealed. So just roll over and die like a good man, the torture will be over in a few hours that way. Or do you prefer fighting for a few days?"

"It's pain and misery all around," Sasha said as she licked her lips, "How delectable."

"It certainly helps shuffle the cards," Arin said as he tossed his card around the room, "An explosion fit for the detectives who attempt to find us."

"I can't wait to hear him scream to the hate of his own daughter," Caroline was smiling.

"So Nathan," Azure ran her Blood Slicer around his neck as she circled him, "How long did you think you could lock me up for? The rest of my life right. That was the plan wasn't it. Keep me away from everything. Make me like every other girl."

"Azure please," Nathan was in pain and sweaty, "You have to understand. I-I did it for your own good."

Azure sliced his chest, then back in two clean swipes.

"Your own good my ass," She said as she continued to circle him, "You did for yourself. The attention of having a sick daughter overwhelmed you. You couldn't help it, you loved to torment me. Your not any father of mine. Your a weed in this world, a weed that can easily be removed."

With that it took one swipe and Azure decapitated him. Nathan Joy was no more. Azure washed her hands and Blood Slicer. She had a huge smile on her face.

"That felt good," She said, "But not nearly as good as what we're going to do when we reach our place."

"I can't wait," I replied.

"I'm go find a few other victims," Sasha said, "There weren't enough people in this mansion."

"Arin will you wait until all the detectives are inside before blowing this place up?" Azure asked.

"Sure thing. I'll make the call," He said.

"Caroline go ahead and rate anyone you want," Azure waved her away, "I have a few more things I want to try with Noah."

"Just a second," Caroline walked over to Nathan's dead body, "I thought you were going to torment him a little more?"

"I wasn't in the mood," Azure said.

"May I?" Caroline said.

"Do what you wish," Azure replied.

Caroline removed Nathan's heart and pinned it to the wall, "A warning to those white coats."

I ignored that image. I didn't want to think about that man. We got to our cave in the woods. The blue glow worms overhead still gave off the feeling of a starry night. The glowing green algae made the water clear as it glowed greener than clean glass. Aruze was the first to get undressed and jump into the water. I followed her. We swam for a while. There were a few rocks that stood at least three to four feet above the water. We used them to hid and scare each other. Azure stood on the side of one. I joined her, and once again began to see the special side of her. We were temporarily interrupted by an enormous explosion.

"Didn't think Arin would use that many explosives," Azure said as she panted slightly, "Doesn't matter. It won't make a difference to me."

"He loves... his card trick," I was more worn out than she was.

We wound up on the side of the water at one point. Azure held me with one arm, her right hand ran along the scar on my left thigh. I ran my hand through her hair. I stared at her eyes. Her right eye was bluer than the brightest sapphire. Her left eye was greener that any green tourmaline gem ever found. I loved her luscious lips and thighs. Her perfect curves, and gentle face. I kissed the scars on her cheeks.

"That's my move," Azure spoke softly and licked my scar, "You're mine Noah. No one else can ever have you."

"I wouldn't want anyone else," I whisper in her ear.

I kissed her, she kissed back. We went back in the water and played for a bit. I would hid and she'd find me. We would dive under water and kiss as the glowing fish swam around us. I would look for her and she'd grab me from behind. Azure had packed a few jars. We used them to collect a few rocks with algae on them. Azure collected a few glow worms in on jar and a bunch of their prey in another. We even found a few fertilized glowing fish eggs.

"This way we can recreate this place anywhere we want," Azure said, "The algae will grow and the glow worms and bugs will mate and multiply."

"Sounds good," I said as I closed the algae jar.

"In the meantime I know a place to get some food. Ya hungry?" Azure spoke softly into my ear as she held me from behind.

"I could eat," I grabbed her hand.

We packed the jars in the back pack so they'd stay in the dark and wouldn't break. I dried off and got dressed. Azure got dressed next and joined me as I was heading outside. We left and Azure took me to a small restaurant. Azure ordered soup for the both of us.

"The soup is really good," Azure said, "Trust me you'll like it a lot."

"Well if it isn't Nathan's daughter," The waiter said, "It's been a long time Azure. How's tricks?"

"Still deadly," Azure responded.

"How's your father? Doing well I presume," He said.

"He's dead now thanks for asking," Azure looked annoyed and looked at me, "This is the only thing I don't like about this place."

"I can understand why," I didn't like that waiter.

"Oh my," He looked shocked, "Do you need anything? Some sweets to help you cope with this? I'll pay for the meal myself."

"Why," Azure said, "I'm the one who ended it. But I'll take the free food nonetheless. Thanks."

"Don't blame yourself," He said, "What do you want? Everything is on the house."

"I'll take anything I feel like either way," Azure pulled me closer in the booth we were in, "My husband will be part of this as well. You'll give him anything he asks for."

"You're married?" He seemed surprised, "Congrats."

It took a while but the waiter eventually left us alone. He even got yelled at by the manager for a while. I got a free soda and Azure got a soft serve and fries. She offered me a fry dipped in the soft serve. It wasn't that bad Azure fed me a few more after that. She was also right about the soup. It was creamy and light at the same time. We left after that and hung out in a tree by Azure's old house. It was a complete pile of rubble. There were more cars than people do to the deadly explosion Arin set off.
