Shae smiled slightly as she said "Bye" and snapped her phone shut. Sighing mightily she turned back toward the office door and and taking a deep breath she knocked without hesitation.
"Come in"
Shae heard a few seconds after she knocked, and opening the door slowly she peeked her head in,
"Mrs. Hershaw? It's Shae...I came to talk about what happened on Wed-"
She began but was suddenly cut off,
"Come in Shae, I want to talk to you about that as well..."
Shae gulped as she walked in completely closing the door behind her. Turning back toward the interior of the room she came face to face with her boss Karin Hershaw, Head of Mall security, and a bitch when need be, 5'7" and pretty muscular she was an intimidating figure to most, but Shae was kinda used to it, she just didn't want to lose her job....After pointing to a chair in front of the security monitors Karin sat down in a chair on the other side of Shae.
"So, you care to explain what happened the other day?"
Karin began, no pussyfooting around with this one, and so Shae launched into her story on what happened. During which Karin interrupted grilling her and asking questions to make sure this wasn't intentional and such. After about 30 minutes of grilling and relaying her story, it was decided the whole thing was a misunderstanding. When they were done Karin leaned back in her chair looking thoughtful, leaving Shae to stew in wait for a few minutes.
Finally Karin spoke looking directly at Shae.
"Well, I'd hate to lose a good hard worker like yourself Shae, but I can't let this go unpunished, so your going to take a two week unpaid leave until this settles down alright? Starting today..."
Shae let out the breath she didn't know she was holding in, and smiled slightly to herself...Good now she wouldn't lose her apartment...luckily she had paid for two months rent last time, sure she had slim pickings cause of it but now that was coming in handy.
"Thank you so much Mrs. Hershaw...I really appreciate this"
She bowed her head to the other woman in gratitude. Karin only nodded and added,
"Just don't get into any trouble during that time OK? You really are the best I've got and I don't wanna lose you cause of something stupid..."
Shae nodded quickly,
"Oh No trouble for me you can count on that"
It was only when she was once again standing outside Mrs. Hershaw's office did she relax completely,leaning back against the door she sighed heavily in relief, she really dodged a bullet that time....Mentally shaking herself she took off in the direction of the food court.

Frank makes his way in the general direction of the food court, eyeing a few of the malls occupants as he passed them. It was frightening what passed for fashion these days. He was pretty sure a lot of prostitutes wore more than that when they worked. He walked past one kid who must have never seen the sun in his life and was walking with the crotch of his pants in his hand.
"Bathrooms that way, kid," he says, then turns left into the food court... And nearly collides with Shae.
"Woah! Yeesh, you don't have to knock me over every time we meet," he says, laughing a bit.

Shae turned the corner and almost ran smack into Frank, blushing and stammering out an apology she backed up some.
"S-sorry Frank! I-I didn't see you there!!"
Looking around them quickly she pointed to a table and led him over to it before sitting down. She quickly told about what happened with her boss. Then with a quick look of concern she said,
"So I hope you havent been waiting too long,"
She looked down at her watch and realized she hadnt been in t office for as long as she thought she had. But still she didnt know how long Frank had been here and didnt like to keep people waiting. She was surprised that this applied especially to Frank....

Frank waved away the apology and chuckles before following her over to a table.
"Hey, don't worry about it, and no, I haven't been waiting long. Actually, I just got here a little bit ago." he says. He listens intently to the story of what happened with her boss, but smiles at the end of it.
"Well, all things considering, I'd say that went rather well," he says. Then his face turns serious.
"You didn't get hurt last night, did you? I didn't get a chance to read the whole report, but I saw a note on there that our firm was gonna send someone over to check on you tonight and I just wanted to make sure that you didn't get... you know... bitten, or anything."

Shae grinned truimphantly this was something she was comfortable with,
"We were perfectly fine one thing I've always been good at are shields, nothing slipped by during the night. That and I didnt get much sleep anyway so they would had to get through me to get to her."
She yawned then as if to emphasize this. Vampires would never have the pleasure of biting her, not while she had anything to say about it

Frank nodded and smiled.
"That's good," he says. Although, he hadn't really needed to ask, he was just trying to cover his tracks, to make sure that she didn't know that he and Dark Seraphim were one and the same, but then he scowled and groaned.
"They'll probably send that crap for brains Taltos. He just finished my last assignment, and he'll probably nose in on this one too if he knows I was with you at any point in time."

Shae smiled again, of course SHE knew he was with her the night before but she'd keep that to herself for now.
" They can send who they want I'll be enjoying my time off and sleeping, Allie will more than likely be with Moe until next millenia and I'd just love to see any of them get past my nighttime wards."
Of course with Allie gone she wouldn't need such stringent wards but her normal ones would be enough. And even if they or another vampire somehow managed it, well she didnt graduate top of her class at the Royal Guardian Academy for nothing.

Frank was already shaking his head.
"That's all good and well, but just be careful of Taltos. If he thinks you're in "trouble" he'll come crashing through your window, drop whatever wards are there, and start shooting. Well, he'll shoot if you're lucky. If not, he'll toss a couple of flash bangs in your room."
Frank grimaced and leaned back, interlacing his fingers behind his head.
"That guy's trouble... Oh, and he'll probably try and hit on you a lot. He has a bad habit of doing that," he added.

Shae stared at Frank before laughing softly, a strange occurence for her, and smiled as she said,
"I doubt there will be any 'hitting on me' as you say...I'm not exactly receptive of alot of things if someone just burst into my home"
she chuckled again darker this time, she was a little too paranoid to be sure...
"But I'll keep an eye out..."

Frank waved it off.
"Well, either way, I'll stop by to check on you. But I think you'll be ok," he said. He'd definately visit her later on, but probably not as Frank. He grinned and leaned a little closer, resting his elbows on the table.
"By the way, you aren't exactly human, are you?" he asked suddenly.

Shae's smile froze on her face for the smallest of seconds, a quick hitch in her giddy up before she continued like nothing happened. So he could see the differences huh? Well not surprising considering the world he lived in. Things from this worlds nightmares walking around in the Moonlight. It was enough to drive humanity batty.
But Shae, well she wasn't 'exactly human'...There was no point hiding what was obvious, As something inside her questioned telling Frank what and who she was, Something else decided "Enough" She had to get help somehow. Even if that meant revealing everything.
Her heart racing, pounding in her ears, she was scared to death! she leaned on the table toward him and said,
"What if i told you I was from another Universe? and that you were right?"

Frank leaned forward when Shae did so that he could hear her better... Or at least, pretend to hear her better, because he could already hear her just fine. Still, if he wanted to keep his own secret...
When she asked her question, he thought about it for a moment, then grinned.
"Well I just thought of a few dozen comments about those probes I keep hearin' about from alien abductees, but I don't think that's what you mean. I guess I would say, what are you doing here?" he asked. If she were from another dimension, things could get tricky. He'd dealt with other dimensions a time or two, and so far nothing good had come out of them.

Shae smiled at the allusion to aliens, she had heard the excuse for the supernatural events the humans wanted to explain away, they would be terribly surprised if they knew what REAL aliens were like, at least the aliens in her galaxy anyway.
Sighing to herself she focused on the question Frank asked her. She ran a hand over her eyes and squeezed the bridge of her nose before whispering,
"It wasn't by my choice, but it's a long story..."
She felt that now-familiar pang in her chest at the thought of the events that brought her to this plane, hopefully one day she wouldn't feel this way when she thought about her Lady's decision...

Frank leaned back in his chair, curious at the pain in her voice. He glanced around them at the crowded foodcourt and frowned slightly, then he looked at Shae and smiled as comfortingly as he could.
"How about we go somewhere a little more private to continue this conversation? We can grab something to eat on the way out if you'd like," he said. He didn't mention the vampire pets that were watching them a discreet distance away. More teeny-boppers seeing too much into that Twilight series than the real thing probably, but dangerous and effective informants, especially in the mall. He also mentioned nothing about the mage reading an old romance a few seats behind Shae. Granted she didn't seem out of place really, but she hadn't turned a single page since they'd sat down.
Frank tossed Shae a wink and gently covered her hand with his own.
"Waddya say, maybe we can stop by Moe's and check up on your friend while we're at it."

Shae shivered when Frank touched her hand and blushed slightly when he winked at her she needed to get used to attention like this she couldnt continue to go around looking like a flustered teen. She shook her thoughts from her head long enough to focus and realize Frank wanted to go somewhere were they could talk without being overheard which was good considering she could feel a slight pricking at the edge of her senses something she was beginning to recognize as this worlds magical community. It tasted different than the magic back home but she knew it could be just as deadly. Too many creatures knew how to use it to not be cautious.
She smiled at the mention of Allie and forced her thoughts of home away for the time being, there would be plenty of time to dwell on them when she recounted everything to Frank later...
"Sure thing Frank, lets go I'm sure Moe and Allie are at each others throats again"
She stood and stretched lightly looking over her shoulder at the source of the tingling sensation and saw the mage furtively staring at her. Shae inclined her head respectfully before turning toward the door.
