Red Grave City

After playing with Ifalna and Grimoire the whole day the couple went to sleep preparing to leave tomorrow. The next morning they left without warning the others only the people living in the mansion knew about it except for Tifa who had a close bond to Nora.

They returned to Middle-Earth finding themselves back in Rivendell. There Elrond was already waiting for them desperately since the Queen was missing as well as the throne followers. The others were thinking that Elrond took care of them silently and was taking the power for himself since he was the regent while Nesiara was missing.

"Finally you are back. Do you know in how much trouble I was? Many thought I wanted to rob your throne," says Elrond as he was stressed out because of those assumptions against him.

"Don't worry, we are back or at least Celine and Legolas are back. I and John will be leaving with Nora to the next world we are being needed," says Nesiara as Elrond looked at the family.

"So it has been decided that Legolas will be marrying Celine," says Elrond as Celine blushed from hearing that while Legolas took this topic quite seriously since he was marrying into the Crownguard family, not like Vincent who kept his family name.

"Yes, but we will wait until she is older. Until then I will be her personal guard," says Legolas as Celine looked at Legolas while smiling.

"You know that I won't need a guard. Maybe I should be your guard if we were to compare our strength I am stronger," says Celine as she smiled at Legolas making John hold his face in his palm.

"Our daughter isn't that good in those things," whispers John as Nesiara smiles hearing that.

"I wasn't either until I learned," whispers Nesiara back as Nora just rolls her eyes.

They stayed for the next few days as Celine was crowned Queen of all Elves on Arda with everyone that wanted to they knew present and some bootlickers that wanted to grasp their opportunity now that a new Queen was crowned.

"So, what are you three going to do. Middle-Earth might be safe for now but sooner or later it will fall into chaos again," says Gandalf as he was sitting beside John.

"Well if that happens our family will intervene. How many descendants do you think Celine will have until that happens. She might have twenty or a hundred depending on how many children she and Legolas have. And if they aren't enough we will be able to help as well depending on what our status is," says John with a smile as he knew that Celine would bear only three children.

"Well, how about we enjoy the celebration for the new Queen instead of talking about something that is centuries away," says Nesiara who was also sitting beside John.

"She is right, most of us won't even be alive when it happens. But do me one favor. If you find Bran bring him to me. I have to lecture him about going alone into a battle," says Gimli who really missed his close friend.

"So when are you leaving?" asks Aragorn as he was sitting at the same table with the other members of the fellowship and their partners if they had one.

"It should be around-," says Nesiara as someone else finished her sentence.

"Now," says Alfred as he couldn't appear as Logan, and Jack was occupied looking after Leon.

"Where are the other two?" asks Nesiara as her and John's aura appeared directed at him.

Alfred wasn't scared of them since he outlived all the Godkings. He knew when to retreat and when to attack even if he lost one war against a specific individual.

"Jack is looking after Leon for now while Logan is looking after Bran," says Alfred respectful making their aura disappear.

"Just tell us the truth, they are afraid that we will try to kill them," says Nesiara openly giving everyone on the table something to understand that someone fucked up hard against them.

"That is true, I can't deny that. But they did what they did to be sure that in the end, everything goes as it should," says Alfred as John nor Nesiara were convinced by it.

"Fine, since we have to leave let us say goodbye to our friends," says John as he lifted his cup to everyone on the table and continues, "Shall you all live a long and fulfilled life. We will return as soon as possible, Cheers!"

"Cheers!" says everyone on the table as they clashed their cups against each other before drinking from it while John, Nesiara, and Nora were pulled into a dark portal that was under them.

"How many Soul Stones?" asks John as Alfred takes out a pouch with enough in it.

"How long do we have?" asks Nesiara which was more important.

"A week before Temen-ni-gru appears in Redgrave," says Alfred as they disappeared in the darkness and appeared in a warehouse that was fully equipped with everything that they need.

"So this is Red Grave City," says John who could look out of a window.

"At least they prepared everything for us. Now, what do we do wait?" asks Nesiara as she joined John looking out of the window.

"We will need a broker and an office," says John as he turned around to look at the warehouse and continues, "Only a broker. It seems the warehouse is big enough for us to build an office in it."

"Who will be our broker?" asks Nora who was listening to her parents.

"J.D. Morrison, he will be the broker of Dante in the future and with everything happening in the future it would be wise to have some work to do since the electricity and water don't pay itself," says John as they now needed to find Morrison in the city.

"How does he look like?" asks Nora as John created a picture with a black man on it.

He had a well-kept beard and was wearing a suit with a black trenchcoat and a hat. Nora was looking at the person while John and Nesiara were thinking where to find him when Nora left the warehouse.

"And she is gone," says Nesiara as she left as well since they couldn't let Nora do all the work.

"I will go with you," says John as he followed after Nesiara.

They were walking through the city as saw some cafes and family restaurants nearby making John say, "At least we have some nice places to order from or to eat breakfast if we are hungry."

"If my food ever gets boring right," says Nesiara as she smiled.

"Not only that, you won't have to cook for 20 men at least," says John as Nesiara and Nora eat for nine each while he eats only for two.

"Well, I can't change my appetite nor can Nora," says Nesiara as they stood in front of a bank.

"What are we doing here?" asks Nesiara as John walked towards the door.

"We need to have a bank account for the money we will earn and we will have to pay for everything. At least we can produce gold for now using magic. It should help us in the beginning," says John as he opened the door for Nesiara.

"Ladies first," says John as Nesiara smiled entering the bank.

"My thank you," says Nesiara jokingly.

They made a bank account using illusions while they placed two bars of gold on the table that was transferred to their account when the bank employee asks, "Are you a member of the Parker family from New York?"

They were using their former family names to open the account and John was taken by surprise from hearing that since he thought that they were in a different world that resembles his.

"Which Parker family?" asks John as the man winks at him.

"We both know that. Only the Parker family has such a big frame. They are almost like American Royalty as are the Starks. You must be related to the big John Francis Parker since you are this big," says the man working at the bank.

"He is my grandfather," says John as the man nods.

"Thanks for your honesty. We will keep your account secret. No one will know about what is going on in your account. We are really grateful to John Francis Parker since he used us under his alias James Striker. He continued using us afterward and thanks to him we could expand through the world. If you need anything just give me a call and I will see that it will be resolved," says the man as he handed over his card.

John takes the card as he says, "Just keep it secret that I am in Red Grave City for now. I will inform my family when it is time."

The man nods but seemed excited about something when John stood up with Nesiara and they leave. Once outside they walked for a bit passing a cafe in which a specific mercenary was sitting and eating his favorite dessert, a strawberry sundae.

"Something is wrong why would two demons enter a bank and come out empty-handed," says the young man to himself as he took a big spoon from his dessert.

He ignored the couple completely since they ignored him. John and Nesiara entered the warehouse finding Morrison bond against a chair as if he was kidnapped by someone.

"I should have known that Nora would do it this way. She is your daughter after all," says Nesiara as she sighs seeing Morrison like that.

"I have to remind you that it was you who carried her for nine months," says John defending himself.

"And it goes way up the kidnapping. I just say Leon," says Nesiara as John sighs.

"Logan was there too," says John as Nesiara sighs now.

"Maybe it is in both our blood," says Nesiara as Morrison wanted to say something but couldn't because of the gag he had in his mouth.

"Right let me help you," says John as he removed the gag and Morrison was free.

"Thank god, you have to help me before that crazy person comes back," says Morrison as the couple laughed hearing that.

"Sorry about our daughter. We asked her to bring you here since we needed a broker and you seem to be the perfect one for us, mister Morrison," says John as he summoned two chairs out of nowhere.
