Kip and Gwyn had briefed Apollo. They had talked to him about their worry over Maggie. She didn't seem to be handling her change in status very well, in fact, from what Keely had told Kip; Maggie seemed to be getting very cold. Keely had understood, she was use to being treated like dirt. Admittedly not by her best friend, but still she understood and she didn't complain because alot was changing and after Maggie took the power fully, after she accepted it their relationship may become more difficult. But Kip wasnt having it, and nor was she letting Maggie get away with it. It brought up bad feeling, Sloth had been Az's realm, and Az, for all his sins and flaws had let the family down. He'd let Gwyn down. And by Kip that was the end of it, her husband was her world and once he'd lost faith in you you may as well not exsist to Kip. She'd been there when Az first went awoal, and she'd promised Gwyn that Maggie moving to New York wasnt going to be her leaving the family way....she'd promised. She'd thought their daughter could never want to be mortal... and now this? Denying a place in Hells Power Circle...was this Maggie saying she really did want to be mortal after all?
Well Apollo had listened to them both, and he had laughed at their insecurities. To the point where he explained it was probably a hiccup, and had asked if they'd feel better if he went and talked to the runaway princess. Pol had known they both would, but he didnt know if Maggie would actually talk to him. In the back of his mind he had another itch too, she wasnt a Christos in name anymore, she was a douglas now, and Tex seemed to be the only half decent one of them.
Still, any excuse to spend time with his sister. Pol appeared, knowing Tex was working late in the office, and immediately set off the alarm dog. Belle barked the alarm and he chuckled, lighting the room from its darkness. "Mags?" He called over the pipsqueak bark.
