They had searched the house and then gone out with torches to look for him, investigated the outbuildings, and looking for footprints in the snow, but there was no sign of him. His clothes were still in the room, but not his coat or gloves. I didn't really know what to say, I just kept looking around the rooms and I did have a thought that came to me, I wonder what Brutus is looking for? I looked at Simeon, and he looked back at me and said:
" It's bloody freezing and he is out doing what in the snow so why would he leave his hat?"
I looked at Simeon, and said: "You know your right! I haven't ever seen Brutus go anywhere without his hat when it is snowing out, well whatever he is doing well have to just wait until we get more to work on, so, whatever he is out doing, we must wait and see if he shows up in the morning."
Simeon just looked at me: "Moonlight, what is it you are not saying?"
"I don't know, lots of things but I know this, he has done this before last year in spring, but why would he be walking around in the dead of winter without his hat? something really doesn't seem right to me."
'Oh Moonlight,' You just don't get it do you?"
That is when I felt his cold hand touch my shoulders, and his cold breath on my neck, that is when I said: "I don't even need to look, I know who is speaking, what do you want Dark Angel?" and the just turned me around and said: " I want you, but you already knew this, so that wasn't much of a surprise now is it? but the question is, what is it you want Moonlight?"
