F/N's perspective

F/N: "N-no, this can't."

I stood up in shock and horror as the live feed of the Liberator kept playing, the people in the crowd freaking out as he spoke.

Adam: "Well, what is a return to the world stage without a name? I am Father Adam. Leader of the reformed Liberator's. Now you may be wondering and dreading why have we returned? Well it is quite simple, our work has yet to be completed, tainted creatures still walk this holy world, abominations if you will. Though, for why partially now? You can thank the pest among you."

The video switched to a double view as the new feed was pointed right into the VIP lounge, directly at me.

Adam: "The spawn of a unholy communion. The son of one of our own humans and a disgusting elf. Yet somehow they turned the hearts of everyone against us, and now he will hold their sins and repent for them."

There was a bit of muffled screaming from somewhere behind him in the room as he glanced back.

Adam: "Ah and it looks like our bait is here, now then Mr. I would pick up that phone if I were you."

As he said that he held up a phone that was calling one, not a moment later mine started to buzz. Fishing out of my pocket I answered. I could hear my own voice now through the speakers.

F/N: "What the hell do you want."

Adam: "Simple, repentance. To watch you suffer, for you to break down and beg for me to end your life like a dog at the pound. Though, I want you to work for it."

F/N: "And why in the world would I ever do something like that."

I said in a cold tone as he tisked at me.

Adam: "Oh, because you would lose someone, very close to you. Gentlemen, if you would kindly unmask our new guest."

I nearly dropped my phone as two cloaked figures walked into view, the screaming getting louder as they dragged a limia with a bag over their head. One of them grabbed the bag and yanked it off, showing a very scared and afraid Lily trying to get free.

Lily: "Let me go! Let me go!"

F/N: "Lily!"

Adam: "Ah yes, the little snake."

Adam walked out of view before he came back holding a dagger in his hand. Lily was still struggling a screaming before in a sickly tone Adam started to shush her and held the dagger under her chin.

Adam: "Well I could care less about what happens to her, but I assume you would. It would be a shame if I were to slip."

He pressed it closer as I tightened the grip on my phone in anger.

F/N: "You lay a single fucking hand on her and I swear! I swear there will be no place for your god to fucking save you!"

Adam smirked as he pulled the dagger away and laughed.

Adam: "Oh what fire! You should watch your mouth though, there are children watching."

F/N: "Like hell if I care! I will look for you. I will find you. And I'll make every single one of you wish you'd disappeared for good!"

Adam: "Oh I can cut one of those steps for you. Though this might not be the soundest plan for someone of my stature, I want to see you bleed and beg. Under the bridge that's on Capricorn street, there will be a large grate, you'll find the entrance to your trail there. Though if anyone else tries to charge in as well, this feed will have to be rated R. I do hope you don't keep us waiting, may god bless you."
