The video above is just a look at what John Constantine is like, in case you didn't know how this character acts.

I was sitting on the patio when I heard it, the mystic words, the obvious smell of cigarettes in the air.

"Oh for the love of..." I groaned and Inferna giggled

I'd know that string of chaos anywhere!

I sat up and ran a hand over my face as a burst of golden light appeared and out stepped the last person I wanted to see.

"Val! I've been lookin all over love, where've you been hiding?" He seemed cheery, not a good look for John Constantine

"What do you want?" I groaned and he dropped the smirk

"I need to talk to her." He said plainly and I stood up

"No, not while I'm still breathing!" I growled and he sighed

"Please Val, you and I both know she's the key to all of this mess! I understand you're under a lot of stress right now, but I can't help you if you block me off from speaking to Inferna!" I sighed and looked at him sadly

"You know I can't say no to you..." I let Inferna take control for a while and watched as she changed my body.

"Hello John, it's been a long time hasn't it?" She smirked walking close to him

"Inferna, lookin lovely as always I see." He mused and Inferna chuckled

"Oh you charmer, I can see why Val likes you so." She grinned and he stood his ground.

"So, what can I do for you today?" She asked looking at her claw like nails.

"I need you to look at something for me, something you might know a little bit about." He deadpanned and she sighed

"Very well, what is this relic?" She was annoyed that he wasn't back for a "good time" call. To be honest, I wished he was too.

He pulled an old clay tablet from his pocket and Inferna looked at it.

"It's a tablet from one of my temples, worthless without my magic to activate it. And since I am permanently bound to the little brat I couldn't activate it if I wanted to." John seemed content with that answer and nodded.

"Thanks, that's all I needed." He said and pocketed the tablet.

"I'd like to have Val back now if you don't mind." He said crossing his arms, Inferna rolled her eyes

"Fine, have her. But you know who's the better lover out of the two." She smirked giving me a jab before giving my body back. I felt my legs shake and I fell forward, John caught me and helped me stand up.

"You alright love?" He asked and I looked up at him.

"Where were you when I needed you?" I asked, this was technically a loaded question, I knew he had good reasons for not rescuing me. He probably didn't even know that I needed to be rescued.

"Love, I'm not bloody Superman! I can't be everywhere at once saving the day." He said a little annoyed that I was complaining at him now in stead of later.

"I know that John! You think I don't? You keep the world safe from the incursions of hell, that's fine! But while you were playing holy hero I was captured by meta human traffickers and was almost sold off!" I said quietly he sighed and pulled me close

"And I promised your old man I'd keep you safe, really dropped the ball on that one didn't I?" I shook my head

"No, I was stupid. I left my apartment at night, it was the only time I could get in for an appointment at that dumb hospital." I sighed and hugged him tightly.
