I wonder what Nico has done with "TK." I'm loving this storyline and looking forward to Philip's interaction with Nyx. May we have previews André DiMera?

[heroicmuse]

Oooh I wonder how Philip and Nyx's meeting will go. I'm glad Raines seems to be un-corrupt in this story and that he and Philip have a good working rleationship.

Wonder what Nico did regarding TK.l

Seems we have double and triple crossing going on in this Andre/Thomas story. It'll be interesting to see how it all ends up.

Great chapter André DiMera. Will there be previews?

[mae00]

CAn't wait to see how Nyx and Philip's meeting will go.

Oh my. Seems like everyone is working with someone else. Very curious to see how Tony and the gang stay ahead of Andre and Thomas on this.

[fluffysmom]

Thomas will be lucky if he survives working with Andre.

I wonder if Nyx will be honest with Philip.

Will there be previews André DiMera?

[André DiMera]

Thanks for reading and commenting, everyone! Now that the Australian adventures are over, and we know some of what happened in Chicago, things are about to get really interesting!

---

Next week...

Philip makes a visit.
NYX: What exactly are you expecting?
PHILIP: I want to know why!

Plus, the school year begins.
CLAIRE: Guys, we're seniors!
CIARA: What the hell?

And the DiMeras make plans.
E.J.: So, he's with us?
ANDRE: I believe I just said that.

But is Thomas Banks really on their side?
THOMAS: Come with me.

All this and more next week on THE MELASWEN PARADOX!

[Kpatch]

Sounds like a great week. Thanks for the previews André DiMera.

[heroicmuse]

I can't wait for all of this! Nyx/Philip should be exciting! I'm really looking forward to the kids starting their senior year! And I'm very curious as to what side Thomas is really on.

Thanks for the previews André DiMera

[fluffysmom]

I'm wondering what Nyx says to Philip. Will Thomas survive this story? Thanks for the previews André DiMera.

Chapter 276

METROPOLITAN CORRECTIONAL CENTER – CHICAGO
NYX: I've been waiting a while for this.
PHILIP: Is that so?
Nyx nodded.
NYX: I've heard so much about you. Mostly from the research my brother Erebus and I had done on all of you. You look different in person than the hundreds of pictures I've seen online.
PHILIP: Can we get down to business, please?
NYX: Of course. So, what can I do for you? What brings you here to see me?
PHILIP: I just want you to know that, whatever your plans were, they haven't worked. Thanks to my friends at the ISA and Chicago P.D., I've managed to get back all of the money you and your kid stole from me. I also know the truth about him now, and he has found a suitable home, far away from your influence.
NYX: So, you've come here to gloat, is that it?
PHILIP: Not necessarily. I've come to ask a few questions.
NYX: Ask away.
PHILIP: What's your name? Your real name, not that stupid Greek goddess name you use.
NYX: You may call me Nyx. If you really want to, you could call me Mila Harp.
PHILIP: Is that your real name?
Nyx shrugged.
NYX: Depends on your point of view. My father, Orpheus', name was no more or less real than mine.
PHILIP: Okay, so I'm not gonna get anywhere on that end. How about this, then. Why?

SALEM HIGH
It was the first day of the school year. All of the students were walking through the hallways. There were signs that pointed them towards the gymnasium, which they all headed to.
TRIX: So, this is Salem High, then?
CIARA: Yep. You've seen it before.
TRIX: Only twice, both times at night. And the second I was dead tired.
CLAIRE: I know the feeling. I think you'll like it here, though.
CHASE: She will. This place is great.
CLAIRE: Guys, I'm so excited! We're seniors this year! There's so much we get to do! Graduation, our last Last Blast Dance...
CIARA: Senior Ditch Day.
Claire shot her a look.
CLAIRE: Ciara, come on. You're not really gonna take part in Ditch Day, are you?
CIARA: Of course not. My mom's a cop. She'd totally flip if she found out I skipped school. I was just mentioning that it was something to do.
THEO: And it would be wrong to skip school, anyway.
CLAIRE: Exactly.
Joey leaned over so only he and Ciara could hear.
JOEY (whispering): We're totally doing Ditch Day, right?
CIARA (whispering): Oh hell yeah.
Soon, they were in the gymnasium and had all gotten seats on the bleachers. They were waiting for the beginning of the first day assembly. As Ciara looked out, she saw several familiar faces. However, she had to do a double take when she saw one.
CIARA (under her breath): What the hell?
Claire tapped her on the shoulder.
CLAIRE: You okay over there?
CIARA: What? Yeah, I'm good. Just thought I saw something.
CLAIRE: What?
But before Claire could answer, Mr. Woods stepped up to the podium to start the assembly.

[heroicmuse]

Of COURSE Ciara and Joey are going to do Ditch Day! LOL But I wonder who she saw?

I assume Philip means why did Nyx use TK (or whoever he is) to steal from Philip and what she's up to, but she will probably tell him why she and her father use pseudonyms.

Great chapter André DiMera!

LOL! The hundreds of pictures were of Jay as Philip, and your Philip is played by Jon Paul. Clever!

I love the way Philip is approaching Nyx. No nonsense.

Chapter 277

SALEM HIGH
The assembly had been brief, and all of the students had started their classes. Because of the assembly, the class periods had been shortened for the day, and the normal schedule would start the next. However, for some, it was lunch time. Claire and Chase sat in the cafeteria.
CHASE: So, how was Music Theory?
CLAIRE: It should be interesting. You know, the first day's always just about going over the schedule and what class is about. But, I'm really looking forward to it. How was Criminal Justice?
CHASE: It'll be interesting. I've picked up a few things here and there from my dad over the years, but it'll be nice to have a full understanding of it.
Claire nodded. Ciara walked up, aggressively put down her tray, sat down, and stabbed a fry into her ketchup.
CLAIRE: Whoa. What'd that fry do to make you so mad?
CIARA: I just spent the last couple of hours finding out that I have almost every class with one of our favorite people. And I really hope she's not in Gym or AP Art, or I'm gonna flip!
CHASE: What? Is Noelle is all of your classes, or something?
CIARA: No, worse.
Trix set her food down and sat down.
CLAIRE: How much worse?
CIARA: I share almost every class with Jade.

METROPOLITAN CORRECTIONAL CENTER – CHICAGO
NYX: A more specific question would be appreciated. Why what?
PHILIP: Why Tyler? Why use that against me? Why make me think that I was getting a second chance to raise my son?
NYX: It needed to be convincing. I've done my research on you. Once I found out you had a son that you never had contact with, it was easy enough. All I needed was a boy who looked enough like you to convince you he was your son. As it happens, my son fit the bill.
PHILIP: And why would you steal from me? To my knowledge, our families have never had any disagreement. Your beef is with John, Marlena, Roman, Steve and Kayla. Why, then, would you target the Kiriakis family?
Nyx chuckled.
NYX: Because I can.
PHILIP: No, there's something more to it than that.
NYX: There really isn't. It's just that simple. Erebus and I were in a tight spot. Our financial situation was horrendous. We needed money fast, and once we found out you had it, it was ours.
PHILIP: Well, that's disappointing. I'm too young to have met Orpheus, but I've heard the stories about him. I'd have thought his children would be more cunning than that.
Nyx attempted to stand, but couldn't get very far, as her hands were cuffed to the desk.
NYX: I am just as bad as Orpheus. So is my brother.
Philip laughed.
PHILIP: Seriously? By now, Orpheus would've found a way out of here and would be halfway through his next plan already. But, it really doesn't matter. Orpheus is gone, as is Erebus. And you will never see the outside of this place. We're done here.
Philip got up to leave.
NYX: Tell Deimos I said hello.
Philip stopped.
PHILIP: How do you know Deimos?
NYX: He's the boy's father.

[heroicmuse]

Wow! I wasn't expecting Deimos to be the father of Orpheus' grandson. Great twist!

Ugh. So Jade is who Ciara saw. This will be interesting...

Great chapter André DiMera.

[mae00]

Whoa!! Deimos is the father?? Does he know? and how much of a role did Deimos play in this whole scheme?

[Kpatch]

Great twist about Deimos being the kid's father. Makes me wonder if Deimos was involved in the plot.
