It was a warm, sunny day in London, England. A rather rare occurrence in the usually gloomy and cloudy country. Naturally, Harrison went out to take a stroll in Hyde Park, not too far from where he lived. He soon found himself upon a pond, where he looked rather fondly at the body of water. The tall brunette smiled slightly as a seemingly small duck paddled up to the shore, ruffling its feathers to rid itself of water. Harrison sighed contentedly, at peace with the world at this given moment in time. Until a certain blond came running up the pavement.
"Harrison!!" the man cried out, "Harrison!!" he sprinted until he met with the brunette. His face bearing a wide grin.
"Hello, Alexander." Harrison greeted the man with a blank expression. "What do you need?"
"I found something that you might be quite interested in! To be quite frank, I am fascinated with it myself!" the man referred to as Alexander said, excitement filling his voice to the brim.
Harrison only stared down at the blond with cold eyes. "This ought to be very important, let alone useful, Alexander." He said with a bored tone. Alexander only looked back up at the slightly taller man, hurt filling his eyes.
"You offend me, Mr. Lupercalia! Of course this is useful!" The bright blue eyed blond said in a slightly defensive tone. The brunette rolled his eyes.
"Well, get on with it then!! You mustn't stall like that." Harrison interjected, slowly getting annoyed. Alexander nodded.
"I may have found something interesting in I don't know, perhaps the catacombs under Paris?" The blond started, excitement bubbling up inside of himself. Harrison's eyes sparked with interest.
"What were you doing in Paris??" he inquired, his interest picquet. Alexander shrugged.
"Y'know that one lead I got that on William? The one about him being in Paris? Well, I followed the lead. Turned out to be false, a dead end. I found myself wandering the catacombs, and something strange happened. Something I couldn't explain. Which is why you need to come to Paris with me!!" The hyperactive blond rambled, enthusiasm filling his eyes.
"Sure, why not?" Harrison stated, trying to keep his nonchalant composure. That is until someone spoke up.
"What's this about catacombs and Paris?"
