The Deception

[the_god_illyria]

I turned the corner and without hesitation walked right through the front doors of Wolfram and Hart. The building was just the same as I had remembered, these doors, these halls…all of it, a replica of its former design.

Two years.…Only a few nights ago, this place had been in ruins. I felt a surge anger and of disgust. But I had to contain

I'm not so scary, if you open the door.

So Lindsey really was tired. Good. Thank God. If he asked me another question about being evil, or hell. If he asked me another question, I was going to make a knife..Ok I can't do that, but I think I'd hit him, to Make him remember. As odd as it may seem, I'd rather have dangerous Lindsey in here, than idle minded one. It causes me to work more... and think. Something I haven't done in..I don't know how long

Lilah...

This was interesting. I cocked my head. Lilah was dead. She had been dead for quite some time, and the shell's...Fred's memories told me so.

"So Eve..decide to join us for dinner? All you have to do, is open the door..."

She looked so sure of herself. She wanted to intimidate. Yes, death...this one and...in the sofa, someone there. Both dead and not. But this was not the evil I was feeling. It was something else in this room.

I opened the double doors and walked in.

"Lilah..." I said. "It's good to see you...again."

I noticed the camera on the living room. Interesting. So she was being watched. A prisoner? Perhaps. I needed to be careful with my words. I half smiled.

"Enjoying your...stay?"

She just looked at me. Now that ruins my fun...but I played back.

"Aww..Poor little mini-me become speechless?"

Then she did something that I myself wouldn't have done...So..No. Not a mini-me. But hey..her mistake benefited Lindsey and me.. She opened the door, and my stupid body couldn't move...I just stood there, shocked that she actually opened the door, and walked in..Letting them close behind her.

"Lilah...It's good to see you...again."

Bitch....but I still smiled, hiding my animosity.. I was good at that. Still.

"Hell if I knew that you were actually going to join me for dinner, I might have actually cooked something...but then again, you did make the apartment the same, so there wouldn't be any food now would there.. Hmm."

"Enjoying your...stay?"I gave her the most evil look I could muster up

[the_god_illyria]

So she is a prisoner...along with the other. Lindsey. What an amusing game Eve was playing. I could see Lilah's anger build up inside of her. So they are enemies too.

"Hell if I knew that you were actually going to join me for dinner, I might have actually cooked something...but then again, you did make the apartment the same, so there wouldn't be any food now would there.. Hmm."

A prisoner in her own box. Why would Eve bring these two beings back from their own hell?

"It's fair. Considering, you stuck me in here with a mindless child..and no knives..plus, I can't leave." "So did you come here to clean up your mistake, or make another one?"

I only smiled at that. So Lindsey had lost his mind. He would probably be someone I could use

[lilah_returns]

"So here you are. Nothing but a china doll in my doll house with nothing else to do here but sit and wait for me to bring you to my beck and call. I see you've made your self at home here, Lilah. I'm glad."

THAT drew the line...No, It drew the line then erased it, drawing with a permanent marker.

"Eve..Eve..Eve...You have no clue who you're dealing with. I may be your little china doll.. But I'm gonna be the one to set your play house on fire."

A battle with words. Once again...It'll be bigger when I'm out.

The smile that I portrayed, was far evil..the one that I showed when I wasn't about to give up..the one I showed in victory..and most of all, gloating in defeat of my opponent. No matter what her plan was..shewas Not getting anything without a fight. I hoped she knew that.

Better yet. I'll just suprise her.

"Eve..Eve..Eve...You have no clue who you're dealing with. I may be your little china doll.. But I'm gonna be the one to set your play house on fire."Anger... Anger always made humans leash out, spill their souls, and say a lot of things...interesting things. There was wickedness in her smile, interesting way to show anger, and hate. She had lost everything, and yet she refused to be defeated

"Go ahead honey, set it on fire...We'll just build you a new one. And then another, and another, until you grow tired and loose your mind just like that one."

I liked this game. A lot. And If I wasn't so damn eager to get out of here, and see the rucus that Angel and his crew had made, I might have played along.

"Oh , that's so sweet. Could I have knives next time? It'd be kinda hard to cut my fake meat.."

My gaze never left her. I wasn't about to let her win this. If I backed down at all, she'd see something. I will not show my weakness-which I haven't even found myself...My weakness was Wesley. That's right.

"So Eve...tell me why you came here, and decided to 'grace' us with your presence."

I did the quote thing with my hands..Then I started to pick at my nails. A very bad habit I do when I get frustrated. As a lawyer..I was good at keeping my cool. Not about to lose it by a child compared to me.
