Ruby seemed to stare on quizzically. Well, the poor girl did seem to have gotten in at a weird time, after all.
She smiled, cluing her in, "Oh! Ruby, we're just talking about ways to kill off Koln before the church gets here. I mean, not really kill him. But just make them think that he's dead and gone. Let's see, what have we discussed? Drownings. Fires. Hm... you know, fire might be the most effective. What if we left your teeth behind for dental records and scooped up your cross from the alleyway? Maybe something heroic, Koln. Hm... what would you be doing in a fire...? Ooh, what about a daring rescue!? A woman... no a child is alledgedly trapped in a burning building and you, the kindly servant-of-God Father Koln, jumps in there to rescue the victim, only ending up getting swallowed by the flames yourself? Oh, now that would be a story for the papers!"
*grin*
(Not to worry! As soon as we figure out how to kill Koln we can go on to the next scene!) ^.^*
