Smirked at her and leaned against the ground, tapping against the bed slightly. "If you have human food then sure if not I am good with nothing, I don't eat much so it does not faze me" He had a few tricks up his sleeve and he would use them once he was alone, he withheld on doing anything for two long as he rested back on the bed. "I don't small spaces, reminds me of the lab, better be careful not to keep me down here to long or you may wake him up and that's the last thing you want to do pretty lady" He stretched out, he was actually amused they had not stripped him of his weapons and supplies but it didn't matter just yet.

"You're really rude aren't you? I'm human you know, I don't drink blood and I don't take kindly to being accused of being a vampire. Nor to people threatening my family. We left you your weapons to let you know that we're not going to kill an innocent. I can smell them on you." She padded over to the small elevator and on the paper scribbled a few things, pulling the rope it went up. A few minutes later the food came back down and the bell rang. She pulled the tray out and held it against her hip before opening a small feeding slot and sliding the food through. It was a wide array of meats for a sandwich with four buns, and a glass of sweet iced tea.
The man would have to make his own meal, since she didn't know what he liked. The array of vegetables and cheeses should help him decide how he wanted to make it. And there were little cups of mustard, mayo and ketchup but no silverware to give him the extra leverage. He would just have to make do. "And my name is Xiomara, so you can call me that. Mara or Xio also work, though its up to you how pleasant your stay with us is."

"Oh I know he will probably get out Daton" he replied his eyes still fixated upon the smoke as the young seer moved around speaking to him. Ajax's mind was full. On the one hand he was over joyed the members were starting to return to the coven on the other he was drowning in his worry with the news from Xiomara that a disease came and now the threat from the boy and the hunters he couldn't keep a headache from forming. Had he done the wrong thing calling them back?
"I have the boys scent, if he were to escape either myself or Xiomara can easily track him down and he would not survive the ordeal"
He sighed exhaling the smoke up towards the ceiling his eyes finally going towards the boy Seer in the room with him.
"How are you Daton?"

He gave a light shrug of the shoulder as he thought about the question at hand. An answer could have been from a couple of words to a half an hour conversation, but this was one of the quietest know to the coven and his answer was just as brief. "I'm fine" Was his reply, it was always his reply even if he was on deaths door. However this time he was alright, nothing was wrong which made a change and for now he was calm.
"I didn't think I would return here after what happened..... surprising that a seer can not see his or he own future clearly" He was learning more and more about himself and his gifts now that he had finally accepted them for what they were, maybe that would save him in the long run.

Stared at the arrangement with a raised eyebrow, he had never seen so much food in one place as he looked at her. "Taz is who I am, are you going to leave me here or will you keep me company Mara" He slowly started to eat, he did not really have grounds to not trust the food but he didn't have a choice he was starving, he sat cross legged eating as he looked at her with artic blue eyes. "I was hoping to not be alone but if you have some where to be.." He rested against the wall as he ate, not a high fan of being alone in strange places more so in a cage, he thought on things and knew it was pointless for now to escape if he behaved he would hopefully keep his life if not then he would not live long enough to do anything.

"There's a greenhouse I usually take care of... but it will be alright if I leave it alone for a few hours or even a few days." She made herself comfortable against the side wall splitting the two cells apart from one another and politely averted her gaze to the ceiling. Usually her eyes were a moss green, but today they shone as blue as the sky and clear ocean water. "I didn't think you'd want to talk to one of your captors. Where are you from, Taz?" Tilting her head she shifted onto her side to look over at him a bit better, smiling as he ate. She had thought that maybe he might starve himself, perhaps assuming they had poisoned the food.

"Not that surprising really" he commented thinking back to Daton's mother and the stories he had heard of her, he very much doubted the woman had foreseen her death it probably shocked her as much as it did everyone else.
Getting up he moved across the room to dump his cigar end into one of the many ash trays he had littered around the building, other immortals held the same bad habits he had learned.
Rolling his neck from side to side he attempted to release some of the tension he had been holding but it had pointless effect only made him more irritable as nothing changed in the way he held himself. It was as though he were holding a breath waiting for something to knock it away from him.
"Tell me, Seer. What horrors lurk around the corners?"

"You are old enough to know that the future isn't fixed.... it always changes" Daton said as he folded hi arms, leaning against the wall that was now behind him, sighing quietly as he pulled put a packet of cigarettes fro his right sleeve and a box of matches. "But mark my words no where is truly safe no matter how much you try to make it, something is coming and it well could be from something as simple as....a.... note"
He wasn't aware if there was a note in anyone's current possession or not but that was one the constant he saw, a hand written note or letter. One thing however annoyed him, that the resident ex-hunter hadn't returned yet. "One thing is for certain, if your..... 'guest' is anything to do with hunters then hunters will be on their way.... if only that lycan hadn't have left"

Stopped eating for a few moments, thinking on the question she had just asked him, he rocked and back a few times before going back to eating till he was sainted. "I came from the eastern labs hidden deep underground, tube baby so never knew my creators, was handed off to the hunters when I was able to walk then nothing but training and missions from then, why do you ask?" He tilted his head, watching her, remaining seated on the bed almost going back into the rocking back and forth manner, almost like he was afraid yet not. He wasn't afraid as much as one would usually be in his position, something else scared him as he rested his head on his knees, closing his eyes. "Have to do my job or I will get.." He clamped his mouth shut and hugged his knees more.

Eyes narrowed in some form of distrust, though her gut told her that he was not telling a lie which made it all the more confusing. She couldn't fully trust him, people often lied to get someone else to drop their guard and make their escape. If it were Xiomara in that cage she would definitely use a ruse to try and get out. Turning she reached into her boots and pulled out a knife, shifting and taking a small piece of wood out of her other booth, the tiger began to whittle away at it. "I'm just curious, I've never been in a lab myself but if it helps I knew my parents for a very little while before they cast me aside for my sin."
She would say no more on the matter, more intrigued by what he had muttered before clamping his mouth shut. He had made a mistake in saying that, though for a few moments Xiomara continued to whittle away at the wood. "What happens if you don't do your job?"

He didn't respond for a long time as he knew Daton was right, he knew it himself. He could not get away from it either way, Keeping the boy would give them time but had they let him go the hunters would have come and now keeping him they would probably come anyway.
He frowned massaging the bridge of his nose between this and what Xiomara had told him he felt the weight of worry down upon him the more he thought and spoke of it.
"This is not what I had expected when I opened our doors. I was once again a foolish old man" he sighed wondering when it would all end and become the sanctuary he wanted.

"There is always danger, even in the most comfortable of places" Daton replied with a typical shrug he soft often did. He was one to know about dangers after all, no one would expect their own father to rip out his son's eyes in some mental rage. He pulled his hood down for the first time since his arrival back to the manor, back to where he called home. He hadn't changed much, still looked as young as he always did and wore that very same blindfold.
"Humanity is such a short sighted thing, we are well known for attacking what we do not understand, but don't judge us too quickly, after all even we can change if given the chance"

"What always happens if we do not do the job. we become the meal, It's nothing personal against anyone here I kinda like this place but it is kill or be killed in this job, you should know that" He moved over to the bars and looked closer at her. "I'm not going to ask you to let me out, I'm asking you if you could guarantee my life if I was to hide here if not then I can't guarantee I can stop them, If I have safety then I can miss lead the hunters who are coming if not then I won't help, fair is fair no?" Sitting back to back with her now with only the cage in between the both of them. Closing his eyes.

"I can promise you that I will give my life protecting you if you stay here, Taz. The choice is yours, however." She looked over at him before turning back to the ceiling. She couldn't promise him safety in light of the past events it would be asking to be set up for failure. "However, do not bargain with our lives Taz. That is unforgivable."

"There have been many chances for change and none of them have been taken Daton, you know this. Except for a select few humans destroy all they do not understand or all they do not trust. It is their greatest fault, They even destroy the earth that houses them"
He sighed he had watched for thousands of years and they had only changed their technologies that ideals and actions still for the most part rang the same, it was infuriating at times and Ajax would kill each and every one of them who meant to harm his coven or anyone connected to it.
"I must go check on our guest and Xiomara it had been long since they went down there, are you staying here or joining me?"
