[/blockquote][/blockquote]The thunder seemed to be following the two females as they picked their way through the streets. Elise had taken refuge under her mother's cloak hours ago at the beginning of their journey, just after the first heaven's had opened. By this point Renn was soaked right through, a quick waterproofing charm was the only thing keeping the little girl dry.
Renn could have always risked an apperation to her destination but it was ill-advised by every single midwife Renn had ever come into contact with.
There was no point now anyway, she was close... Though Renn could only hope she wouldn't be turned away at the door.
Dresden probably hated her... And he had every too. But... Well there was no where else for her to go. He was her only friend - even though he probably hated her. Renn had to try though, even if she knew she would be turned away with harsh words.
The huge wooden doors to the castled loomed over Berenice as she finished her journey. It was late, the castle's enhabitance were probably asleep, she had to try though.
Renn's arm cuddled Elise close to her chest as she thumped twice on the door, paused and then repeated.
After a moment the door cracked open to reveil a tiny house else. It's huge tennis ball's eyes glowed up at Renn.
"Oynx is sorry Misses... The castle is-"
"Professor Faust!" Renn cut across the creature, desperation cutting through her voice, "Please... Please I must speak with him."
"Oynx is sorry, Misses. Master Faust is-"
"Please! Renn crouched down, looking at the little thing. "I must... Please..."
The creature faultered, frowning, "Oynx... Onyx will ask him. Misses stay here, please..."
And with that the door was shut in her face.
Please Dresden... Please....
