| Vincent sighed.
"I'll go see if I can get her to talk to me." he assured Cass.
After their goodbyes had been said, he hung up, and vanished from his study, appearing at the door of Demi's house.
He knocked loudly, and upon receiving no answer, poked his head in.
"DEMITRA!" he called.
"It's me, Vincent!"

| He didn't get an answer, just the echoing silence throughout the house.
Before he could step in though, a tall woman with dark enough red hair that it looked black came downstairs and met up with him.
"Fuck off Vincent. I am not interested in entertaining today." She snarled as she approached. As she neared him, he would be able to see that she hadn't been eating much in the past bit.

| "Whether you're interested or not, you -will- be entertaining a guest." he told her, as he simply walked in and shut the door behind him.
"Now what's this I hear about you declining bounties from Cassandra?" he asked her.

| "I'm not interested." Demi snarled simply as she turned on her heel and headed towards the kitchen.
"I'm just not interested in risking my life for money at the moment. If that's a crime, call the fucking cops." She snarled.

| "It's not a crime." he told her, as he followed her in.
"However, it -is- highly unlike you." he continued.
"One would think that without the tension of having Kaia around, you'd feel a little more light-hearted, and ready to take on more bounties."

| "Maybe I want to take advantage of the fact that I'm here, alone, again, and just spend some time... I don't know, maybe alone." She stated simply as she got herself a drink.
"So fuck off."

|
| She barely had time to finish 'fuck off', when she felt Vincent's arms around her in a hug.
"Demitra." he said.
"Holing up alone, and bottling things in, is never the solution." he told her.
"I'm your father, let me help you."

| She shoved him away and growled.
"Just fuck off. I'm not bottling anything up. I'm just trying to enjoy my time alone, since it is so rare." She stated simply.

| "Really?" he asked.
"You're not worried about Kaia, seeing as she has seemed to just disappear?" he asked further.
"You're not blaming yourself for it?" he inquired.
"You're not scared that you've forever lost her?" he prodded.

| As he spoke, he could feel her temper sparking, and rather violently.
"Vincent... fuck... off." she hissed, her tone promising violence if he didn't comply. Of course, she wasn't in any shape to.

| "Or what?" he asked.
"I merely speak what I believe to be the truth." he told her.
"If you can speak, and honestly tell me that I am wrong, I will leave."

| "I've already said my piece." she snapped before heading towards the stairs that were connected to the kitchen, obviously intending to leave him be. That something about her, she would always argue everything when given the chance. Why wasn't she here? She stood up for her beliefs, her opinions. Yet... she wasn't going to contest Vincent here.

| "Demitra." he said.
"Unless you talk about this... you really -will- be alone." he warned her.
"If you continue this path... Kiah will leave as well."

| That statement, about her daughter leaving, seemed to have left it's mark as she froze.
"... Kiah's already gone..." She told him quietly.
"She's pretty much never home anymore."

| "I know." he replied.
"But you still have the knowledge that she is all right." he said.
"Ah well... it's not by place to say, if you want to completely sever your bonds with both your daughters." he added with a shrug, as he turned to leave.
