A few days later, Corinthian and Jed found themselves sitting in a serene park, enjoying the delightful treat of ice cream. As they savored each bite, Corinthian couldn't help but chuckle at Jed's quirky way of eating his ice cream, bringing a lighthearted smile to both of their faces. The park echoed with the sound of their laughter, creating a joyful moment. "Need another one?" Corinthian offered Jed a paper napkin to clean his mouth.As Jed cleaned his mouth, he inquired, "Do we need to meet Rose?""No, Rose is coming to meet us.""Here?""No. I have to go to a work thing. It's a convention. We will call her there.""Like a comic book convention?""Do you like comic books?""I used to.""Back when you were a kid?" Corinthian asked. "Yeah," Jed smiled and showed a serious look on his face, "Can I ask you a question?""Shoot,""What's your name?""Have you ever noticed how people only ever use your name when you're in trouble… Jed?" Corinthian asked. "We need to talk, Jed. Get in h

Jed and Corinthian made their way into the hotel lobby, where they patiently waited in line for Corinthian's name to be checked in at the front desk.As Jed stood in line, his curious gaze swept across the crowd. Corinthian, noticing his inquisitive demeanor, couldn't resist asking, "What are you searching for?"Jed's disappointment was evident as he glanced up at Corinthian. "It's a cereal convention. I thought there'd be cereal," he said with a tinge of frustration in his voice.Corinthian chuckles, "Are you still hungry?"Jed smiled and nodded, replying simply, "Yes.""Okay. Well, have a seat, uh, over there and we'll get you something to eat," Corinthian said, gesturing towards a cozy corner for Jed to settle in.Jed quietly approached the seat in the lobby, discreetly eavesdropping on everyone's conversation.Female 1: Tell ya, I could murder a steak.Male 1: They do this chocolate fudge whip to die for.Female 2: The TV version butchered it, but you can find it uncut online.Mal

Morpheus stood before the glass window, his gaze fixated on the network of cracks that marred the once pristine surface of his kingdom. Perplexed and troubled, he searched for answers, unable to fathom what force could have caused such damage to his domain. The enigmatic ruler of dreams was left pondering the mystery, determined to uncover the truth behind this unforeseen disturbance in his realm.As Morpheus focused on his surroundings, he was interrupted by Mervyn, the pumpkin guy. "Loosh? Are you here?" Mervyn's voice echoed through the throne room. Startled by Morpheus' unexpected presence, he quickly realized his mistake and stammered, "Whoops. Oh, sorry, boss. I was looking for Lucien. See ya."With a swift motion, Mervyn turned on his heels and hastened to leave his premises."Wait," Morpheus stopped him. "Why were you looking for Lucien?" He asked out of curiosity.With an anxious look, Mervyn shifted his gaze towards Morpheus and stammered, "Um, there was, uh, some minor seis

Rose receives a call, "I can't thank you enough Unity?""Rose, love, you've done all the work," Unity said affectionately. "May I ask Mr. Holdaway to send tickets for both of you? That way, we can bring you over.""Thank you so much, I'd really appreciate that," Rose expressed her heartfelt gratitude."Would it be alright if I asked him to make you Jed's legal guardian? This way, no one can take Jed away again," Unity inquired with a sincere tone, hoping to find a solution that would bring comfort and security to both Jed and Rose.With wide and excited eyes, Rose exclaimed, "Yes! Thank you, Unity. Please convey my gratitude to Mr. Holdaway as well.""Thank you, Rose, love." Unity said calmlyThey ended the call.As Gilbert drove, he turned to Rose beside him and inquired, "You're heading to London?"With a warm smile, Rose joyfully proclaimed, "From now on, I will be Jed's legal guardian.""I must say, that's very grown-up, Rose Walker," Gilbert compliment Rose.Rose looked worried,

Gilbert observed Rose intently as he shared his intriguing perspective on humanity. "What truly fascinates me about people," he began, "is how so many of them seem to seek reasons to be unhappy. Curiously, it's often when they find themselves entangled in their self-made misery that they appear to discover a peculiar sense of contentment."Concerned that his musings might be uninteresting to Rose, Gilbert paused and asked with a hint of uncertainty, "I hope I'm not boring you?""Not at all," Rose waved her hand.Gilbert continued driving, his thoughts flowing like a river. "Ah, I'm glad you're okay with paradoxes; Chesterton loved them too. Let's consider charity, for instance," he mused, keeping his eyes on the road. "Charity often involves either forgiving an unpardonable act or embracing an unlovable person. And then there's love, a real gem. To love is easy when it's directed at the lovable, but true love arises when we can forgive the unforgivable. Faith demands believing the unb

[Cell phone ringing!]Startled, Rose awoke with a jump as her dream's remnants faded. She swiftly answered her ringing phone, her concern evident in her voice. "Hello, are you alright?" she inquired.Tears streamed down Lyta's face as her voice trembled, "Hector... he's gone.""I understand. Are you alright?" Rose inquired, her tone laced with concern. "I mean, physically. Is everything... well?""I'm still pregnant," Lyta replied. "That's good, right?" Rose asked. "He said he would take the baby," Lyta's voice trembling. "He won't," Rose replied, her tone resolute. "He won't trouble you or me anymore. I give you my word," she declared with unwavering conviction."Arrived," Gilbert gestured, guiding the vehicle into the vacant hotel parking space."We've arrived at the hotel with Gilbert," Rose informed. "We'll retrieve Jed swiftly and return immediately, alright?""Okay," Lyta replied silently. "I see you in a few hours," Rose said and hung up the call."Is she alright?" Gilbert a

Rose and Gilbert split up in the lobby, each determined to search for Jed. Gilbert proceeded down the hallway, offering polite nods of greeting to everyone he passed by.Spotting a sign that read 'Make it Pay,' his curiosity was piqued, and he was eager to uncover its meaning.In one of the convention hall's corners, Gilbert observed a gathering of individuals engrossed in conversation. Stealthily positioned, he discreetly tuned in to their dialogues, intrigued by the discussions taking place among the group.The choir boy: Even 10Gs per victim identified isn't too much to ask.

“And where is your boss?” Death asked, startling Lucien as she was engrossed in reading one of the books in the library.“Oh!” Lucien exclaimed, clutching her chest in surprise. “You startled me,” she said with a faint smile. “It’s been a while since you last visited. I’m sure he’ll be back very soon,” she added reassuringly.Death spread her wings, preparing to leave. She glanced back and said, “Let him know I was here. He’ll know where to find me.” As Death turned to leave, Lucien called after her, "You know, it wouldn't hurt to have you around more often. Dream would appreciate it.”Death glanced at Lucien and said, "You know I have souls to collect. If he wants my help, he'd better give me a good reason. There are far too many souls here already—some of them weren’t even supposed to die.”"I believe it might be connected to the possession caused by the demons," Lucien responded.Death lowered her wings gracefully and stepped closer to Lucien. "I thought this had already been reso

Constantine spotted Morpheus from a distance and immediately made her way toward him.Morpheus frowned, his coat billowing majestically with each step, while his raven glided in slowly beside him."How did it go?" Constantine asked as soon as she reached Morpheus."I've already told you that Lucifer isn't the one in charge, but I’m certain he knows who is. He will definitely put an end to this chaos," Morpheus replied.Constantine nodded and replied, “Well, I'll have to check on other people to keep them safe until this chaos is over.”"I..." Morpheus began to speak when he heard the faint voice of Rose calling out to him.“Help,” Rose whispered weakly."I need to leave. One of our Endless children is in danger," Morpheus said, departing swiftly."Is he married? Does he have children?" Constantine asked, surprised and confused.Matthew the Raven was on the verge of returning to the Dream Realm when he overheard Constantine's question. "What!" Matthew exclaimed, taken aback.

"Your Majesty," the demon began, approaching Lucifer with deference, "The King of Dreams and his Raven have departed our realm." With a respectful bow, the demon relayed his message, awaiting Lucifer's response.Lucifer gestured with a wave of his hand, signaling the demon to depart."Hey, Mazikeen!" Lucifer's voice echoed through the chamber as he called upon his trusted demon lieutenant, turning to face her with a determined gaze.Mazikeen stepped forward, closing the distance to attend to Lucifer."Summon Azazel and the other chiefs immediately," Lucifer commanded, his expression seething with anger.Mazikeen, fueled by the same anger that coursed through Lucifer's veins, bowed respectfully before him as she prepared to depart. With a determined air, she took her leave, her purpose clear: to summon the chiefs and rally their forces.As soon as Mazikeen departed, Lucifer beckoned Balthazar forth. "Head to the waking world," he commanded, "and ascertain the precise nature of the situ

"You know, I think I deserve a say in where I end up. Teleporting me around without asking is a bit rude, don't you think?" Mathew the raven quipped, a hint of playful annoyance in his tone, as he conversed with Morpheus."Are you implying that you're afraid to accompany me to Hell?" Morpheus glanced back at Matthew, arching an eyebrow inquisitively."Negative," Matthew retorted sharply. "My purpose here is to ensure your safety and inform Lucien of your current location," he clarified.“Okay,” Morpheus responded.Morpheus and Matthew stood by the gate after the souls had entered."At the gate stands one... Oh, it's you again, King of Dreams," the Demon exclaimed, surprised by Morpheus's presence."It's good that you remembered," Morpheus said, his expression turning into a frown.The demon, with a sinister grin, swung open the imposing gates, granting passage to Morpheus and his faithful raven companion. They strode purposefully through the gateway, their determination palpable in th

"So, what happened?" Constantine asked, her voice tinged with anxiety.With his arms folded behind his back, Morpheus began to recount the events, "It appears the shadows are merely inhabiting the host body, utilizing it as a vessel to carry out their nefarious deeds, which ultimately culminate in the destruction of the waking world," he explained, placing particular emphasis on the phrase, "Your world.”"It's not unusual for demons to harbor destructive intentions towards the world, but what we need to ascertain is the method, timing, and identity of their superior," Constantine remarked thoughtfully. She then posed the question, "Could it possibly be Lucifer behind all of this?” Morpheus released a sigh and gently lowered his arms, turning away from Constantine. "Lucifer is not involved in this matter," he stated, before facing Constantine once more. "Furthermore, I am going to meet with him immediately," he added decisively."Alright then, while that's being taken care of, I'll go

Matthew the raven flew around in the darkness looking for traces of the shadow, “I simply can't see anything here,” he murmured.As Matthew the raven tiptoed along, his claws clinking softly against the ground, he accidentally kicked an iron can, causing it to clang loudly. He froze, scanning the surroundings to ensure the noise hadn't attracted unwanted attention. When he glanced behind him, a dark shadow loomed ominously, its presence sending a shiver down his feathers.Matthew looked up with a mixture of fear and curiosity, his lips quivering as he greeted, "Hello!”With a bone-chilling voice, the shadow unleashed a haunting shriek, echoing through the darkness, "Haaaaaa.""Boss," Matthew whispered urgently, but as the shadow loomed closer, panic seized him. "Boss!" he shouted, his voice echoing through the darkness. With a flutter of his wings, he darted away, his heart pounding with fear. "Boss, where are you? I need you!”In the dream world, the shadow persisted in its relentles

“Like this,” Matthew looked around as he finished his statement after appearing in the girl's dream. “Boss, why is it so dark here? Is it supposed to be this dark?” He asked, “I can't see anything,” he added.Morpheus fell silent, his thoughts consumed by the urgency of the situation. With determination etched on his face, he delved deeper into the dream realm, scouring the ethereal landscape for any shred of useful information. Suddenly, his attention was drawn to a figure huddled in a corner. Moving swiftly, Morpheus made his way towards the girl, his senses alert for any sign of danger."Boss, where are we headed in this darkness?" asked Matthew."Direct your gaze ahead, and within a faint glow, you'll discover a young girl," he said to Matthew.Matthew glanced in the direction indicated by Morpheus and breathed a sigh of relief. With a swift flutter of wings, he landed on Morpheus's shoulder and inquired, "What's our next move?”“Well! I want you to search around for the shadow wh

In the evening, as Constantine approached her door, she encountered a motionless girl waiting just outside."Hello! How may I assist you? What brings you here?" Constantine leaned forward toward the girl.Constantine laid her hand gently on the girl's shoulder. In an instant, the girl raised her head to meet Constantine's gaze. Her eyes, once ordinary, now glowed entirely black, ablaze with shadows.She gripped a knife tightly, raising it with the intent to stab Constantine.Constantine stumbled, losing her balance, and found herself sprawled on the floor. She scrambled on all fours, desperately crawling away from the approaching girl with a mixture of fear and urgency."I have no intention of causing harm to you, whether you're a girl or whatever entity resides within this child's body," Constantine expressed."Who do you believe yourself to be? Our plans will forever elude your understanding," the girl declared, advancing menacingly toward Constantine.“What plan are you talking abo

Constantine heads straight to the Catholic church and meets up with the nun.“What do you think is going on?” Constantine asked.They both walked along the hall heading to the altar. The Nun faced Constantine and nodded her head in distress. “If I tell you I know then I would be lying.”Immediately she snapped her fingers when she recalled something one of the congregations said on the day they had service.“I believe there was a time, a man said demons were showing up in her dreams but they didn't do anything to him, they were only showing up and going because he is not someone that dreams only sleeps due to mental disability.”“Where can I find him?” Constantine asked.“Uh! He shouldn't be hard to find, he is homeless,” the Nun said and continued, “I think he sleeps in the next street around the corner.”Constantine turned back immediately and shouted, “Thank you.”Constantine ran straight to the next street and found an elderly lady that approached her with a message.“Work togethe
