And now we return to Anita Blake...

kippurbirdChapter forty six.
The spork has gotten boring for many people, so, I decided to try a different way of doing it by having the "Los Angeles contingent" from Hostile Takeover put in their own commentary while they're at the ballet.
Once again, Orion, Maddy, Lan and Kev belong to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
canadianevil and Kale, Trever and Alec belong to me.
Kale had his opera glasses (one he bought when they first came out) trained on the so called Master of Hollywood. He and Trever let him live because it kept the eye off their own operations. But, really, only an idiot would think that Hollywood was its own city. When he first arrived he tried to challenge the twins. That had been completely laughable disaster. They mind-whammied him into doing what they wanted and set him lose. Occasionally the would email him and tell him to do some sort of idiotic publicity stunt or something.
Mostly because they thought it was funny.
When the ballet vampires tried to roll them, Orion very politely told them that if they continued to do so with his people he would introduce them to Kev and Alec and then let them know what the two younger vampires would happily do to them. The vampires quickly retreated, leaving them free of any metaphysical influence.
Trever snatched the glasses from Kale and looked somewhere else in the theater. To Jean-Claude's box. They'd bugged it.
"Hrm... apparently our flying friends don't normally try for vampires," he muttered. "And Anita just flicked him off."
"Heh." Kale said, absently watching as Kev flung knuckle bones into the air to hit the vampires that flew above them.
Lan leaved over Trever's shoulder. "Isn't that Auggie who just came in?"
"Yeah...he just asked JC to roll him."
"Why?"
"Trying to get Merlin," the leader of the trope, "To let them go."
Orion snorted as he absently petted Alec. "He's trying to get the entire audience under his control, isn't he?" Orion sounded amused as he said that. Kale tipped his head a little, seeking out what was happening, and could hear the sound of birds, Merlin's animal to call.
"What the hell... the Albuquerque Master, whastername? Jade Moth?"
"Obsidian Butterfly," Maddy corrected absently.
"Yeah, that. Stupid name. Anyway, she just joined the mental threesome."
Trever whacked his twin. "Never, EVER say that again."
"Mental threesome." Kev said grinning.
"Yeah, whatever, she's trying to gain control of the birds, they're going after Merlin now."
"FUCKITY." Trever slammed down his shields, causing everyone else to do so too. "The twit-bitch just called up mummy of darkness and she's in Merlin."
Orion yawned. "This is boring. Let's go somewhere else." He smiled suddenly. "I hear they're putting on a selection of scenes from Mozart's operas down at the city auditorium."
"Oh, yes, let's go there!" Maddy said. Kev rolled his eyes and dropped the last of the knuckle bones onto the oblivious audience. One made it into the movie star's cleavage.
He stood up, indicating that they were going now. And the Los Angeles vampires left to go to a much more entertaining evening.
Even if Alec tried to disembowel the first violinist.
