Washu's Lullaby MIDI
Losing My Religion
Oh life is bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no,
I've said too much,
I've said enough
Sim starred off into space. She was supposed to be doing the last of her paperwork for the week, finishing a couple days early. But, Sim hardly ever does what she's suposed to. Her mind kept drifting to Trinity and Drex. It was hard to let Trin deal with this whole Elipsis thing on her own. She's done so much for Sim, she was determined to pay her back somehow. This time she wasn't aloud too.
"Oh, Screw it!" she shook her head and turned back to her work. A soft knock sounded on her door and it opened.
"Can I help you?" Sim looked up at the woman who had just entered her office. She was of average height-no taller than Shinigami. Her hair was dark brown, long, with a natural wave. A tatoo on her chest identified her as a priestess.
"Yes. Yes you can." the stranger smiled wryly. "I need to see Shinigami about something."
"Sorry. Apointment only."
"I'm sure you can arrange-"
"I said, apointment only. In fact. I would normaly say you could take this up with me but, I also can only be seen by apointment only. I don't know how you got in here or why you're here. I really don't care. I suggest that you call and get an apointment. Apointment. The key word here." Sim snapped.
"Now you've gone and done it." the woman snarled "I thought mabey I could reason with you, possibly even spare your life but obviously immortals are all the same." she drew a pistol and aimed it at Sim's head "My name is Viviane. I'm here to make your life miserable."
"Leave your name and number at the desk, and if I feel like it, I'll get back to you."
"This is no joke!"
"Sorry, but I don't have time to sit here and be frightened by every little lunatic who gets angry and wants to blow my head off, now, if you'll excuse me, I'm haveing tea with Lucifer in twenty minutes and I must be going." she picked up her black cape and tied it around her shoulders.
"I don't think so." Vivane smirked.
***
That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my Religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it

"This is a new one." Shini sighed as he examined the titainium steel shackles around his wrists.
"Oh yeah, I forgot to mention Viviane. She claims to want to make our lives 'miserable', as she so eliquently put it." Sim tugged at her own shackles.
"What did you say to her?"
"Who knows. I open my mouth, words come out."
"Pet, you're not the most polite woman in the galaxy."
"Now you will listen to me!" Viviane appeared.
"Well, hello there." Shini blinked at her in suprise "Have we met?"
"I'm you're head priestess!" she cried bitterly, pointing to the tatoo on her chest.
"Oh, yeah. I remeber you. " He nodded "Been a while, ne?"
"Is that all you have to say to me?"
"Um...nice shoes?"
She slapped him hard across the face and just as quickly turned her back to him.
"I beleive din you once." she began in an angry voice "...I spent my whole life bringing others to you, worshiping you, putting you always before all else. Then I discovered something. You don't care about me. I am nothing to you. I trusted in you! You had all my faith and love. I was taken for granted..." she paused and turned to face him "So, I have decided to pay you back. There are many of us, those who have been disillusioned. Now you will answer to us!!"
"Geeze. Sllep with a chick and she expects you to care about her." Shini rolled his eyes.
"Sim kicked him in the shin.
"What do you mean you slept with her?!"
"It was years ago! I slept with all my preistesses!"
"HOW MANY YEARS AGO?!"
"You are really anoying" Viviane interupted the lover's quarrel.
"Excuse me?" Sim turned on her.
"You're pathetic. Do you truely beleive he loves you? How many women do you think he's said that too? He said that to me."
"Look, you bitch, I trust Shini-"
"Ssssh. He doesn't care. In that you can trust."
Viviane was now directly in front of her face. Despite herself, Simoriah was slightly intimidated.
"Have you made a fool of yourself over him? Did you tell him you loved him? I bet you did."
"No." Sim answered thoughtfully "...I never really have..." she looked over at Shinigami who was stareing straight ahead. "Look at me." His head didn't move. "LOOK AT ME DAMN YOU!"
Shinigami slowly turned his head and looked her in the eyes.
"Isn't this touching, but I've made my point. Doubt, my friend. Doubt." a clawed finger traced a line up her throat and up to her chin.
"I'm not your friend." she snarled, jerking her face away.
"When you lay beside him in the dark at night, is it you he's thinking of? Dreaming of? Every time he kisses you, is it you he's kissing? Is he pretending you're someone else?"
"Who the hell do you think you are?" Shini finally spoke up. "I don't care who you are or what your rank in life is, you have no right to say that to her. My afairs are none of your bussiness."
"They are now."
***
Oh no
I've said too much
I haven't said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought I heard you Sing
And I think I saw you try
***
"DREX?!" Sim screeched as he entered the room with his arm around Viviane's waist.
"Oh, well if it isn't the half-breed bitch." he laughed, walking towards her haughtily. "I never noticed before, but you're a pretty little think aren't you? Hum. If you're a good girl we can have some fun before I kill you."
"You'll never kill me. I won't have it and I sure as HELL won't have you!"
"Too bad. So, back to bussiness." the demi-god turned to Shinigami "Why did Mom marry you?"
"Fuck off, you little brat."
"Aw, did I upset you 'Daddy'?"
"You little SHIT!" Simoriah wasn't done wanting to kill him.
"Don't know when to quit, do you? Anyway, I supose Trinity told you that I was going to make her life hell?"
"Yeah..."
"Well, Elipsis was only the first stage. And you, my dear, are my second."
"YOu're sick."
"Mabey I am. Point is, I hate you and Trinity. Remarkably Viv and I have a common trait. We both hate Shinigami. I hate him for...well...because he's my step-father and he didn't deserve my mother and Viv hates him because he's a player. Face it Honey. You married a jerk."
"I'm not feeling the love here." the god of death remarked.
"Let's get this over with." Drex turned to Viviane and drew his sword
"No." she intervined "This is too easy! I want sport."
"Very well then."
The shackles around their wrists released them and the couple landed on the ground.
"One week." Drex smirked "One battle. The End."
***
Every wisper
Every wakeing hour
I'm chooseing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool
Fool

"He can't do this!" Trinity raged. "Oh, this is all my fault!"
"It's not and you know it." Sim sighed and looked out the large bay window in the palace sitting room.
"But it is! Drex is my problem. He shouldn't be interfearing with the two of you."
"Let's not forget Vivane. She woul dhave done this with or without Drex. That bitch has a few screws loose."
"I had this comming." Shinigami wispered.
"No kidding." Hiiro frowned.
Trin shot her husband a dirty look and he quieted down.
"Let's get back to the main issue. I'll gather Shini's troops and get them ready for battle. You guys get teh royal malitia and-"
"I don't think so." the god of death stood, silenceing her. "I'll do this myself."
"You can't..."
"I'LL DO THIS MYSELF!" he snapped and stormed out of the room.
***
Oh no
I've said too much
I said enough
Consider this
Consider this hint of the century
Consider this
The slip
That brought me to my knees
Pale

"So, you've heard?" Simoriah stared across the room at the egyptian god in his white linen kilt. The jakal headed mask he wore in releifs on temple walls lay on a stand beside him.
"Of course, who hasnt?" Anubis smiled at her, placeing his finger tips together in a regal guesture.
"Then you know what I'm going to ask you?"
"You wish to borrow my army?"
"Yes."
"As you know, Shinigami is my half-brother.* I've known him for a long time and the fact that you've come to me says that he's too stubborn to ask for my help."
She nodded, feeling guilty for going behind her husband's back. The handsome god continued to smile at her warmly, attempting to soothe her discomfort.
"I am always happy to help family, however trouble the both of you have given me."
"I gave you trouble?" Sim was confused.
"Did you not give my head preist five sons?"
"Anubis? You mean my Anubis? He was your preist?"
"Do not worry. I am not angry. It has just been a difficulty keeping track of them."
"I'm sorry."
"Nonsense. You shall have my armies by the eve of your battle."
"Thank you." She stood to leave, much releived.
"Simoriah?"
"Yeah?"
"Don't loose. It makes us look bad."
"Sure."
***
What if all these fantasies come falling around
Now I've said too much
I thought that I heard you Laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I saw you try.
OWARI
*In Egyptian mythology, Anubis is the son of Osiris and Nympthese. Osiris and Isis are Shinigami's parents. And another Shock fact: Seth and Nymphese are Andrea Frost's parents. Ana and Shini are cousins.
