Trouble: Tethered to an Ancient Ghost


Daemon snickered again at the comment.

"If divorce were only an option."

Across the street a small group stopped at the corner and seemed to discuss something. They split up and two went in a nearby alley and one remained. His phone vibrated and he recieved a text. He glanced at it.

I'm a little early. I'm here.

He put the phone down while he mulled it over.

"Trust me I have no desire to learn, especially if it involves getting shoved off a wall."

His mind momentarily went to base jumping, and then to him trying jump off a 30 story building.

He looked back across the street.

Daemon looked at Johan, possibly considering something.

"Nah, excuse me a second."

Daemon picks up the phone again and calls the number that texted him.

Under his breath so the waitress can't hear, "Lose my number and leave Cleveland. If i ever see your face again, I will kill you and your two buddies in the alley."

The guy standing at the corner started looking around frantically. He walked toward the alley and seemed to be speaking, then all three ran down the street.

"Well, Johan, it seems my night just cleared up. I think I'll have whatever you're having."

He smirked.

Johan holds up his glass "Italian Soda, you can have it in whatever flavor you want, but I feel that this may not scratch your itch. Perhaps Sushi?" He then finished the glass and set it down. Then looked back over at where three men just ran off. A broken hunter, but still a hunter. It would seem that one that carried solid street cred.

Johan was tempted to seek answers, but quite frankly, the best pace to search for answers was before him. And that would not leave a paper trail back to him.

"Sushi would be welcome."

He waved off the events outside.

"Please forgive the minor interruption," he turned and waved for the waitress and when she looked over in his direction, he hollered. "Same thing, please."

He looked at Johan, "I don't know the hand signals."

Johan motions for the waitress to bring them one each. "Sorry, I stop here regularly. They don't have the best coffee but it still stands up, and the people are amazing, as well as the location." It seemed that Sushi would still wait a bit.

"It is no problem, I can't tell you how often I case a meeting to find out they wanted to jump me. Though I handle it a bit differently. Not that your way is bad, we just have different styles."

"He was supposed to come alone, so he broke that condition and squandered whatever help he was going to request. Why I don't normally meet with anyone but specific contacts. I do sometimes, however, as favors for other hunters."

He regarded Johan a moment.

"So, how would you have handled it?"

"Personally, I would have watched them for a while, followed them to where they are staying and notified a friend to clean up the mess. My skills are not in the area of violence. Getting to and what I want. Watching. I excel at those." he said looking over to see the waitress finishing up their order.

"Whatever works, I suppose. I like direct. Now I don't have to waste time following them. I can sit in peace and chat with a friend and eat sushi."

He cocked his head at Johan.

"How often does that happen to you?"

Well, intelligent predator. "Not as much as it used to. Not at all since I have settled with Jason and Marina's help." But I am still keeping an eye out for danger. "Some of my clients were not all that savory or as moral as you and I."

"I don't know. Morality is subjective don't ya think? I'm probably not a shining example for it."

He looked outside just to make sure they were gone.

"So things are calmer for you because you're hiding? Or just because you're better at preventing that potential robbery?"

Johan sighed. "You hunt monsters right. What do you know of demons? Not half demons, the real ones?" Johan asked, "I know of thirty, all bound to a silver coin. Thirty silver coins." Thirty demons. All bound to a Silver Dinar.

Johan had not known who had hired him to steal the coin from a remote monastery, for a brief moment he had been bound as well, but a Knight of the Cross saved him. It was a very short binding, but bound he was. But Shiro was...very persuasive, and saved his soul, and angered the Denarians very much.

"You're talking about the coins paid to Judas? I'm not very religious so beyond that I'm at a loss."

He wasn't sure where he heard that from.

"As far as Demon's go, I have some familiarity. More or less unkillable, but able to be banished with the right tools and people. Why?"

"These demons, Denarians as they call themselves are Demons from Hell, by reasons that I don't fully understand are not able to act directly on this world, but when bound with a mortal in possession of one of the silver coins, they can do great and terrible things. And I managed to piss one of them off. Didn't do a job up to their expectation, and thus I am on the run." It seemed like Daemon may be the best person to share this with to start off. He would at least appreciate the danger. Jason would want to go running head first. Not a good thing in this instance.

"My experience with Demons is they generally can't act in this world without some human intervention, opening a doorway or some such. Like a Ouija board. That coin sounds like the same concept, sort of."

He adjusted the chair to face Johan, this was getting interesting.

"Who is in possession of this coin?"
