Theron would once again appear on Television screens across the entire city interrupting only for a moment the traditional holiday programming, he would also come on the radio and all over the net. His powers were beyond what he was letting on, but if a vampire could get away with it, so could he.

"Greetings again my friends and yes, even my enemies. I hope today finds you well and in a safe place away from those who would wish to do you harm."

He said with that ever present smile.

"I do not intend to keep you for long. I just wish to see how you are doing and I came to deliver an important message, a message I too must learn to accept like the rest of us I am not perfect in anyway." He paused slightly.

"This message is of the value of forgiveness and mercy. This period of time is to be spent with loved ones and friends from all around, but we must think of those who have done us harm in the past. It is the past and in reality we cannot change their actions. I know the past is hard to forget with the sting of the words refuse to let go of you, but the power is yours to forgive them. Life is too short to dwell in the pain of the past."

The smile faded slightly with those words, he thought upon a secret hope inside his own soul, but did not show it.

"You are the strongest people I have ever met and have had the pleasure of working with in the past and I bet it only gets better from here. We must together learn the power of the balance between the light and the ever present darkness in every day life and learn to accept each of the qualities equally, once we can do this we can better handle the results they bring us."

"I understand this is a traditional time for giving gifts to friends and family. I have not met every single one of you, and chances are I will never do so. But I too can understand the consept of giving more than you take from this world. So as I depart this little speech, friends I leave you with a gift that I hope you can enjoy."

He then placed his left hand over his green jacket, over his heart and bowed his head, after this was finished every person that could see and hear him would find, somewhere near from where he came from they would find a ring adorned with a simple green crystal, enough for the entire family.

"This, my friends is so you never, ever lose your way again. Wear this and think of home, and you will be moved to safety, away from the monsters of this city. I can not predict when they will attack, but I can make you feel more confident in walking the streets, and feeling good about your personal situation."

"I know you may and have no reason to trust me and my words, you may even think that I am just trying to buy your vote for the governor race. You never asked for this, but this is why it is called a gift my friends. Think of it as nothing more than that, please."

He smiled and the camera backed off to show his entire figure, green trench coat and well dressed in black formal wear. He looked pretty good he thought, but then again things should never be judged by what they look like. It should not have made a difference, but it did not hurt.

"Good bye, my friends of Rhydin. I hope I was able to serve you on this great day and enjoy your newly obtained gift, and do not worry. Nothing will be able to tamper with it. If attempted it will simply fade away and a new one will replace it immediatly. Do not leave home with out it, and you should never feel fear again for walking down the streets of Your city. Good bye, and may you be blessed."

Theron vanished and every device returned to its normal programming.

Bob took the ring off of a dead man's hand and idlely gazed at it.

"Brother, you are an idiot. You just gave every criminal an easy escape route from the watch. If you really wanted to be governor. I could have helped you out for a price after all. What is family for anyway?" He said this to himself and laughed as he wondered when the storm from this item would finally show itself in full force.
