Spoiler:

And your house by extension Steven, you do live in the same place as her.

[Kerr]

"You going to give him the knife?" asked Hastur.

[Musicman247]

Spoiler:

Lucy owns it.

"I'm gonna hold onto the knife as insurance. I'll give it to him when we reach Lucy." Steven said.

[Kerr]

Hastur looked down at his bare chest. "I really need a new top." he muttered. Hastur followed Steven.

[The-Shadow-One]

Ivory sighed. "Very well." He muttered, He followed Steven and Hastur, to Lucy's house.

Spoiler:

Your describing it steve, as you lived in it.

[Musicman247]

I didn't take long to reach Lucy's house. Like most of the Memie's houses her home was very large and extravagant. She had it styled in the fashion of a Southern Plantation, large white stone pillars adorned the front of the two story building, which was also all white. They walked up the path that lead through the acre of land in front of the house and then up the steps to the large mahogany door.

Steven took out his keys and unlocked the front door and let the other two inside. "Lucy is probably in her private chambers. She looked pretty tired when we left her. Ivory, you can wait there," Steven pointed to the left at a large living area with plush furniture arranged around a fireplace. "Hastur you can come with me to my room and we'll both get changed." Steven started up the stairs that were ahead and slightly to the right.

[Kerr]

"Nice place." said Hastur, he followed Steven.

[Musicman247]

Once they were in Steven's room he shut the door and locked it.

Steven's room, like the rest of the house, was very spacious. It had dark hardwood floors and white walls. Works of art from Van Gogh hung on the walls, and classical music wafted from the sound system in the corner. A king size bed adorned with white down pillows and comforter dominated the far wall.

Steven walked to the right and opened a door. Inside was a large walk-in closet with almost any article of clothing one could imagine. "We can change here. If you want to take a shower first we can u- you can use the one behind door number two," Steven pointed at a door to the left of the closet.

[Kerr]

"Thanks." said Hastur. He went into the closet. He took out a yellow jacket, blue jeans, black long sleeved t-shirt, black socks and black boxers. Hastur took the clothes into the bathroom, stripped down and got in the shower.

[Musicman247]

Steven sat on the bed, waiting his turn until curiosity got the better of him. He went to the bathroom door and opened it slightly, peeking in.

[Kerr]

Hastur didn't notice. He was cleaning the blood off his torso.

[Musicman247]

Steven closed the door and went back and laid on his bed. Don't know what I was thinking he would look like, he thought.

[Kerr]

Hastur shut off the shower. He dried off and got dressed. He came back into the bedroom. "You sure I shouldn't change?" he asked.

[Musicman247]

"What would you change into? Or..who, I guess." Steven asked.

[Kerr]

"I'm not sure." said Hastur. "What kind of person would I even change into?" He sat down on the bed.

[Musicman247]

"That's why I asked. How long have you been this guy?" Steven asked, looking over at Hastur.

[Kerr]

"I'm been with Yog about eight months. I have looked like this for six." said Hastur.

[Musicman247]

"What happened that made you have to change your identity?" asked Steven

[Kerr]

"Wanted to see the world after I finished school. Didn't want my family getting hurt if I got in trouble. So I had to look different." said Hastur. "We still send each other e-mails and stuff."

[Musicman247]

"Oh," said Steven. "You made it seem like people were out to hurt you and if they knew who you really were they would hurt your family."

[Kerr]

Hastur looked at Steven with a worried look on his face. He wouldn't. Would he?

[Musicman247]

"Why are you looking at me like that? What aren't you telling me?"

[Kerr]

"Why do you think that hunter was after you for?" Hastur asked.

[Musicman247]

"I figured you did something the Memies didn't like and they were coming after me because I was with you." Steven said.

[Kerr]

"Why would, oh yeah all those things I do." said Hastur.
