(There is the sound of a masculine voice shouting, followed by a sharp intake of breath from Raven.)

No. No, no, no, no, no. You're gone. You can't be here. You just-

(The sound of something being knocked over then Raven gasps, chokes back a sob, and finally whimpers.)

Stop. Just stop it. I didn't touch your stupid things so go away. Please, Cain. Just... NO!

(A door slams shut and the shouting becomes muffled as Raven starts crying quietly.)

If you see this woman around, tell me and stay away from her. She's genuinely insane-- and I'm not using that term the way people sometimes throw it around, I mean certifiably psychotic and you're endangering yourself if you approach. She's packing at least two guns and a knife, and a hallucinogenic gas that I only just recovered from. She'll probably talk solely in Lewis Carroll quotes. She calls herself "Alice."

If you see me around her, just let it go unless I'm really in trouble, like a dying type of trouble. I don't want anyone else getting hurt. I don't know how she's here and alive, but I think we all know how this place surprises us like that.

So has anyone seen her? And where?

I was a bloody fool for thinking she might actually love me. How could she after what I tried to do? As if a sodding soul would make any difference. Plenty of bloody psychopaths have souls and it doesn't stop them from doing bloody awful things. How am I any different? I should have known that she was only using me to defeat The First. Not only did I go halfway round the sodding planet to my soul back, but I sacrificed myself for her and it made no difference.

I need another bloody fucking drink.

Eliot, why do you live so high up? I swear there is something wrong with the elevator in our building.
