The Boss

After me treatment by Trey in India I was just a tad bit annoyed to say the least. Did he tell me anything about Sidious, Archangels and Admin types? No!? You can push a demon only so far and then we gets all evil like. I’d had it with this human. I didn’t care what the chain of command thought there was going to be a missing link.

When I got back from India I went over to Trey’s house and waited until he went out. I broke into his house and switched over into me full fledged demon suit and then waited. When he came home I could tell he knew something was up. He’s no fool I’ll give him that much, but that little hand cannon he was carrying wasn’t going to slow me down.

I knocked his sorry ass across the room and jacked him up the wall by the throat until his eyes were bulging out of that good looking face of his.

“Aimless!?!?” He recognized me right out, “What are you doing?” He managed to gag out.

“You set me up old Trey. Don’t much like being set up. Makes me angry. As a matter of fact I’m so angry I’m liable to pop your snide little head right off.”

“I didn’t set you up! I did as I was ordered.”

“Really?” I replied and then threw him to the other side of the room. Warmed me heart to watch him bounce off the wall like that.

“So the Archangel and the Admin types what almost sent me ass right to the interrogator… they was an oversight on your part?”

I never saw Trey look terrified before and certainly not because of me. It was right satisfying it was. He backed away from me like a rat in a corner and me taste for blood was rising, “I don’t know what you’re talking about! I was just following orders!”

I swept in and grabbed him by the throat and began to squeeze again. I was wondering if I could turn him into a living Pez dispenser when a voice behind me said, “Aimless put him down.”

I dropped the blighter, turned around and had a bit of a shock me self. He was in human form, but there was no denying who that was... Lucky was standing right behind me!

Snookered!

So after a week in Jaiselmar this here Sidious chap heads done to the Lake city of Udaipur. At this point me radar is full on. Either this bloke is setting up connections for world war III or the second ring has been a lot busier than we ever thought!

Despite all my chasing around after Sidious I ain't got one step closer to discovering what he's up to. After Deli I didn't intercept a single agent of his or scoop up one tidbit of useful information. It was at that point I decided to take him down.

He was standing on the wall that surrounds the lake when I approached him. I grabbed him and threw him into the water and then jumped in after him. When he came up I got quite a surprise. Something in that water washed away all the demon glamour and I realized I'd been snookered! This weren't Sidious! It was just some tourist who got the surprise of their life.

I was right embarrassed I was. Didn't act like me self. I actually helped the poor bloke out of the water and apologized. I apologized!?

That Sidious had pulled a real fast one on me and my searchers. I spent all this time chasing about India on a wild dragon chase. After stopping back in Bangalore for a few days to recuperate and pick up me stuff I headed back to the states and had to face the music from Trey. Of course I had a thing or two to say to him... more on that tomorrow.

Into the desert

Me life has been all topsy turvy with this whole Sidious thing. I ain't been able to keep up with this here journal the way I want. There's been so much going on I can hardly keep straight which day it is.

Anyway after Sidious holed up in Jaipur he took a flight up to Jaisalmer into the desert. This had me somewhat vexed since I couldn't make no rhyme nor reason as to what the bloke was up to. I knew for sure that he weren't having no meets and greets with any associates since I was watching him real close.

I had to take the shadows to get up to Jaisalmer and it weren't long before I found him holed up in a place called Shreenath Palace in the golden fort. I hadn't been to this place in centuries and it brought back fond memories of blood and fire... ah the good old days.

Originally it were them Mughals what owned the place but it looks like the Hindus have gotten it back seeing as the cows are walking the streets. Gots to be real careful were you step in that place. Now the fort is all loaded down with merchants and you can't hardly get two feet without someone trying to drag you into their store. I just gives the old demon glowing red eye trick and they backs right down. The tourists ain't got such powers.

After a few nights in that palace Sidious moved his base of operations further out into the desert to an oasis/camp called Mool Sagar. He still hadn't met with anyone! I thought maybe he was collecting ingredients for a spell, but as near as I could tell all he'd picked up was souvenirs! An agent of evil collecting India memorabilia? It just didn't seem right.

Anyway I kept me eye on him at Mool Sagar and ended up a bloody pink color for me troubles. It seems the locals around here celebrate something called Holi where they throw brightly colored dyes at each other. I wasn't watching me back and whole herd monkey children caught me in a cloud of pink dye.

It's just not right! The bloody stuff don't come out! It's embarassin' it is! Who in all of bloody hell heard of a pink demon?! It sounds like cocktail! I've been back a week now and I still can't get it out. The bloody dye soaked right through me human apparition into me demon skin! If the boys back in detention see me like this I'm going to be a laughing stock... Bucky saw me... don't much like be laughed at like that...
