Masquerade of madness: The Idea of Saving Creed: Part two

"Goodnight, Dad." Sue wasn't listening, and Crystal was already asleep on the floor. He left the room and went to the kitchen feeling quite despondent. He found Spike waiting for him at the table. She had no idea what had transpired or where her master was.

Where is he?" she asked cautiously.

"I am sorry, Spike, but he was kidnapped by the Nards."

"Is he dead?"

"Apparently not," he said, pouring a cup of coffee. "They are leaving in the morning."

"But I want to save him now!" Spike said irritably.

Gin placed his hand on her shoulder. "He's fine, don't worry."

Spike could not manage her anger. Objects began to float around her. "How can you possibly know how I feel about this? I am supposed to protect him!"

"Don't worry. His brother is here."

Just then, Jade came floating out to the kitchen. Gin gasped, spitting out his coffee. What now just didn't express his thoughts this time? Maybe he should try to ignore it.

"Jade!" Spike spoke excitedly.

"Yeah."
