Red Spyder (Guardian of Wickedness)
Makes the crabs I got from prostitutes seem like a joy.
Despite Charon's command, Red found himself staring off into space, thinking only, naturally, of the monster beef stretching holes.
"FOCUS!" Charon shouted again, grabbing Red by the throat to snap him out of his daydream. This caused him to look directly into her eyes. "If you don't focus, we're ALL fucked!"
"Well... like I said, if I appear in the open, he might too," Red said, Charon taking a couple steps back now that he seemed to be on the same page.
"Do you really think Aeean Hades is just waiting like that?" Charon asked, Brandon giving up on his hair for a moment to listen. Besides, the more he tried to fix it, the wilder it became.
"I'd say it's likely," Red answered, thinking back to his previous encounters with Aeean, first in the garden at Castle Mortis and then after lil Red's birth. "That seems to be his thing. Wait in the shadows until the time's right for him to interfere. If now isn't the right time, we're going to have to come up with another plan."
"A roll of the dice then, mates," Brandon said, using his hand to throw his hair out of his mouth again. "Unless anyone's got a better idea, I say you go for it!"
"It better work," Charon said with a sigh. "If it doesn't, we might not have time to come up with anything else."
"I have a feeling it'll be enough to draw him out," Red said. "I just hope he's not too pissed off about before." The birth of lil Red screwed Aeean Hades out of getting his revenge with the Gate of Apocalypse. He had more than one reason to possibly still want Red to die.
"Imagine that, someone pissed off at you..." Charon said, knowing all too well how easy it was to be pissed off at the Guardian of Wickedness..
"It was either kill him or let him kill Angel and lil Red," Red responded, shrugging. "I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have been happy with the latter."
