*smiles back and waves*

How are you Tink?

*looks at Kisarazu*
My name's Celeste, btw

excuse me a minute Kis


*goes back to Lasc's room and knocks on the door* are you sure you're ok?

people getting killed, people going missing, the storms, the earthquakes

tokens, diamonds, people coming back to life...

*walking down the stairs towards the bar*

That was useless I can't even sleep anymore.

*smiling he pulls out a maggot from his ear, placing it on the bar.*

ok thanks

*walking down the stairs towards the bar*

That was useless I can't even sleep anymore.

*smiling he pulls out a maggot from his ear, placing it on the bar.*

*hearing steps on the stairs, she turns her head and sees Jerry*
You've looked better... do you need some... help with... your body? Perhaps I can... try ancient rituals...*

*In his state of panic, Lasc stripped the sheets off of the bed attemptimg to pull himself up, and became further entagled in the mess as he attempted to regain control of himself. It was not the first time he had felt an attack this severe, but it was the first time it had held so much duration. He winced at the pain in his chest and sucked in an exasperated breath as he struggled for composure. His heart was beating a thunderous gait within him, and he felt that any second it would simpy burst. The sweat was pouring off of his face, and his tongue was thickening in his hot dry mouth as he let go of the bed and fell to the floor.

The sunlight was warm on his face as he relinquished control, and he lay there stunned by its presence, breathing to the unsteady rythym of his chest.*

How are you Tink?

*she turns to Kis*
That... must hurt. How many did you get pulled? I did all four at the same time. *shudders, remembering*

Nah, I am fine. Well Vaga, was playing with a sharp object yesterday.

* He turns around to show the deep cut in his back. He flexed splitting his back so that that what was left of his chest showed.*

It's really annoying.

talk to me Lasc or I'll just myself in *gets keys out*

*she winces*
Can you explain what happened? Why I should be happy to see you like this?

*she turns to Kis*
That... must hurt. How many did you get pulled? I did all four at the same time. *shudders, remembering*

yeah all 4... but the oxycodone helps alot. :)

so how are you? im just visiting again in this ol' place, i used to frequent this place and places like this alot before... but this is the first time ive been in a place like this for a while.

*slumps deeper into the comfort of the sofa*

*Hearing a familiar voice outside of his door, Lascivious was stricken with the fear of being seen in this state. He tried to speak, but was powerless to make sound. Instead, his mouth opened and closed without the slightest utterance... he blinked once, then twice to try and shake this foul terror that was within him.

His eyes, now fixed upon the shadows cast in the reflected ceiling light above, pondered the intricate shapes of tree branches and leaves cast upon the spackled gypsum. They seemed to dance, and calm him... but his mind still raced with a furror. The stiff green gallows were upon him, and though he knew it would not be long before he came to... he feared for his life.*

Why should you be happy to see me like this? Well, I can talk, walk around and do this.

*with a wave of his hands he got the furniture to dance around the room*

My version of the sugarplum fairy.

*slumps deeper into the comfort of the sofa*

I'm good. Actually, I hven't been this at peace in a long time. I think I was starting to scare some patrons *chuckles* I've only been here for... a month and some? And now it's dying... *sigh*

You're not really answering my question, you know. What is that entity? what are you? Did you really have to charge someone you knew was going to kill you?

Lasc, I'm coming in *unlocks the door and slowly opens it, peeking into the room, seeing him laid on the floor she rushed over, kneeled down next to him and strokes his forehead* what happened?

I'm good. Actually, I hven't been this at peace in a long time. I think I was starting to scare some patrons *chuckles* I've only been here for... a month and some? And now it's dying... *sigh*

lol, im sorry. i really dont even know whats going on, i most likely wont even remember this fantastic conversation in a couple hours lol. Lets do something fun!

*runs to the bar and stumbles into a couple stools*

*looking up at Tink he forced a subtle smile, and trying to disguise the tears he blinked once or twice again. Swallowing the dryness of his mouth, he pushed a few words out...*

I um... I'm ok... I must have fallen... can you help me up...

I just get dizzy sometimes...

*runs to the bar and stumbles into a couple stools*

*she tries to steady him/her?*
Here, have a seat, you look like you need it.

*she tries to steady him/her?*
Here, have a seat, you look like you need it.
occ- him

*sits down*

shit, i hope i dont throw up... i seriously dont feel good.

*reaching out to her, his hand trembled, and was cold upon her skin as he touched her. Feigning a smile, he pushed his hand hard against his knee and used his own mass to try and convince his body to stand... he struggled and fell under his weight, and looking rather despondent now turned back to look at Tink...*

I just uh... I can do it... sorry Tink...

*feeling rather embarassed, he pushed again on his knee, and this time managed to slowly stand as she helped him up... His face was still flush, and his skin cold. His breath was calming now as the drugs took effect, and steadying his body against the headboard he straightened his suit out as best he could. His hair was dishevelled and messy, and his eyes were still striken with a wild distant stare. There was no life left in them.*

Thanks Tink. I think I can manage now... I really ought to have a shower and get cleaned up... I'll uh, be down in a minute...

*with that he leaned over, and kissed her on the cheek... then, in an unsteady pace made his way to the armoir to select some fresh clothing as he headed off to the shower...*

occ- him

*sits down*

shit, i hope i dont throw up... i seriously dont feel good.

ooc thought so, but didn't want to assume...
*she goes behind the bar and retrieves an ice bucket*
Here, just ine case...
*she sips her expresso*

ok, but if you're not down in 15 minutes I'm coming to check on you *leaves the room closing the door behind her and heads back to the bar*

*deleriously walks over to couches and sinks into one and passes out*

occ- im actually on painkillers, and i do actually have to lay down.

*turning back over his shoulder, he looked at Tink longingly... *

Ok, I'll be down... and thanks again...

*with that he shut the door and took to the shower...*

*deleriously walks over to couches and sinks into one and passes out*

occ- im actually on painkillers, and i do actually have to lay down.

*she nods to the stranger*
Yes I have, in martinis.
And we have everything here. What do you want?
*she suddenly stops*
Will you excuse me?
*she runs up the stairs*

*looks at her watch then back down the hallway and decides to give him a few more minutes*

ooc - sorry back to work for a meeting *sigh*

OOC: ah work sucks dont it? but i tell you what i wish i was working the money would be nice :p

IC: Maybe someone will want to go wabbit huntin later :D but until we meet again *Cheers* *sips off his Nearly Empty half gallon of Gin* later guys

*… The sharp beads of water peppered Lascivious as he let the shower massage his neck. It was a satisfying feeling, and he sensed his troubles being rinsed away with the frothing suds, over his hard rough body and down the drain. Few joys compared to the feeling of a hot shower for him, and its warm embrace comforted him. He stood motionless for a while; the soap rinsed clean from his hair and clean-shaven skin, and let the water beat down on his face, then pushed his long brown hair back over his head and stepped out of the shower after turning it off.

He towelled off and got dressed presently, then combed his hair and shaped up his face a little. With a sigh of exhausted relief, he opened his pillbox, took a few more meds and made his way to the door.

Looking back on his room and its present state as he closed and locked the door, he was ashamed that someone had seen him in such a state. It played hard on his strength to have been seen so weak, and it embarrassed him greatly. He pursed his lips a little, hummed as if even he couldn’t see what he was thinking, shook his head, and made his way down the spiralling wooden staircase.

He was upon the bar presently, and with a counterfeit smile, nodded towards Tink and said hello…

‘Would every day be like this? ’, He thought to himself. *

*smiles* hey, you ok?


ooc: 'over his hard rough body' grrrrrrrrrr ;)

*The fact that his hands were still shaking was hidden by his commercial smile, and though his eyes were distant, they seemed inviting as he looked back at her...*

Yeah, I think I'll be ok, you know how it is. I'm just so... er... clumsy sometimes. I must have slipped and bumped my head or something.

How have you been Tink?

It's been so long.

*extending his hand to her, he reached out and pulled her wrist up to his lips - giving it a soft kiss just before he withdrew... then looked back at her face and tried in earnest to smile again.*

I've missed you.

ooc: Hehe, I thought you might like that part. ;)

*smiles and gives him a quick hug*
I've been ok i guess, I've missed you too, it's not the same without you

*walks in tossing a knife up i the air*

*He looked at her deeply, and studied her reaction to his presence - as if looking for confirmation that he even existed, and his mind began to wander a little to the strange sight he had seen in the forest the night before...*

I'm glad to be back - though at present I really cannot say for how long. I think soon I... I think I'll be going home. I don't know why, I just have a feeling that I'm needed elsewhere... somehow.

Tink, I have to ask you a question...

*his eyes looked down, a little embarassed... and as if trying to change the subject he looked over at the strange person tossing a knife around...*

Say, not to intrude, but you ought to be careful with that! You might hurt someone tossing that thing about... it looks rather dangerous!

Oh... I'm sorry... what was I thinking... I suppose introductions are in order...

I'm Lascivious - most people call me Lasc.

ooc: how god damn rude!

ic: *puts her had on his cheek and turns his face back to her* what do you want to ask?

*tosses the knife and trys to catch it with without looking and ends up with the knife through his hand*
oops

*walks in carrying a first aid bag*

you want patching up Black?

I'm Prue btw

ooc: how god damn rude!

ic: *puts her had on his cheek and turns his face back to her* what do you want to ask?
ooc: He was embarassed!!!

ic:Ouch, you might want to have that looked at! That just looks... painful!

*suddenly a hand re-directed his attention, and he found himself gazing back into the caring eyes that he remembered oh so well... it scared him a little, and he was intimidated to ask... but summoning the courage he posed the question...*

Tink, the other night I uh... well I seen... have you ever that is... was there a shelter of some sort down by the creek at some point?

ooc: He was embarassed!!!

ic:Ouch, you might want to have that looked at! That just looks... painful!

I don't remember there being one, why?

*walks in tossing a knife up i the air*

/me takes the knife and uses it to carve into the bar looking over my shoulder you can clearly see Jose + Noire = Dream World :p and as i realize your over my shoulder i give a quick turn around uppercut knocking you into the back wall STILL nobody want to go wabbit huntin :(

hi there...seems my offer of first aid has been spurned

you don't need a shoulder sling or anything do ya? I'll do it for free...i need the practice ;)

*pulls the knife out of his hand and starts to toss it again*
whats a little pain
*ignores the blood pouring out of the wound*

*he stammered a little, and was vexed a little deeper by not having any confirmation of his experience... but he went on to try and explain himself...*

Its probably nothing Tink, but the last time I was about, I took a walk down there - and I can distinctly recall seeing the remains of this crude little shack... that is, the first time I went out. It was dark though, and in the halflight I couldnt make out a lot of detail, so I returned the following day to investigate... but oddly enough, either I couldn't locate it... or it was... well, gone.

I know I was into some bad stuff back then... but I swear it was real... I suppose my mind could have been playing tricks on me though. You know, with the booze and the drugs and all... its just that... god, it seemed so real to me.

Then the yesterday evening, I was awoken by the rains... and when I looked out the window I...

*he stopped himself... 'this was insane!' he thought, he was clearly dillusional, and ought not to carry on, lest he terrify this poor girl...*

you know, *he smiled* it's nothing. Just my mind playing tricks on me. Its just an old memory coming to visit... thats all. Im sure of it now. I should have thought it out before I asked.

So tell me *he said, changing the subject again* whats been going on around here? Its been ages, I should think I need to be caught up on the tumtulous events of the club! Have you had any new love in your life? How is the business?

*pulls the knife out of his hand and starts to toss it again*

here take a band aid... might keep you from bleeding to death ;) and here take a shot of gin but i warn you its smooth but it has the aftertaste of gasoline

*continuing to toss the knife it eventualy gets stuck in the ceiling*
crap
*draws a pistol and stats spinning it on a finger*

here take a band aid... might keep you from bleeding to death ;) and here take a shot of gin but i warn you its smooth but it has the aftertaste of gasoline

thanks for the gin.
*takes the gin in his wounded hand. suddenly the pistol he was spinning goes off shooting himself in the foot*
not again

earthquakes, storms, tokens, people dying, people coming back to life, people going missing, just the usual

no new love, I'm starting to think that may never happen :rolleyes: business is ok i guess, a few new people around

what a pair of jokers! (not you and Lasc...the other two :D)

*walks over to the bar and gets herself a glass of chilled white wine*

where are you?

Wow, it sounds like you've drawn quite a crowd in. Im sure that they all come to see you Tink. ;)

On the topic of business, and since I'm trying to cut down on the alcohol, can I trouble you for an apple cider while we talk?

*on that he took out his wallet and extracted a crisp twenty, placing it on the counter for Tink*

We really do need to catch up.

ooc: Hey Prue! Long time no see! :)

*stumbles over to the bar and grabs a drink. looks over at Dezzan*

Well, thats a shame. Tink darling, they surely don't know what they're missing.

... and yes, lets do that...

*with that, he took the mugs of cider in one hand, and Tink in the other, guiding the four of them over to a quiet booth...*

*she woke up in her room, her hair a mess and her kodachi, shurikens, katanas, tachis, and various other blades lying all over the floor. with a yawn, she picked them up, threw her trenchcoat over a chair, made sure all the blades she carried in her belt were still there, and sauntered downstairs.*

damn. forgot about my hair.

*she absent-mindedly ran her hand through her white hair, sat down at the bar, and materialized a cold sake and a glass of ice.*

hey, everyone...

Well, thats a shame. Tink darling, they surely don't know what they're missing.

... and yes, lets do that...

*with that, he took the mugs of cider in one hand, and Tink in the other, guiding the four of them over to a quiet booth...*
*sits down* so how's things been going for you lately?

*she comes down the stairs, humming an ancient hymn to the Goddess she almost thought she had forgotten. It was strange now that even though she couldn' feel her energy, she was so... present...*

*wanders in with a "cat that ate the canary" look on his face*

Howdy all.

*Grabs a Smithwicks*

hey Jose, I don't hunt rabbits. with my line of work, it's a different type of hunting.

*she grins to herself and takes a kodachi out of her belt,testing the blade on her thumb. at the side of blood, she nods, licks it off, then takes a sip of her sake.*

*Walks Into The Bar* who wants a brewsky? i got Bud Light Bud Ice and Bud Select and cant forget the Budweiser :-D dont worry i got case upon case of beer in my Truck... im here to stock the beer cooler :-D and im keeping 4 cases for myself

*sits down* so how's things been going for you lately?
Well... *he said, avoiding all discussions of his present health*... I'm well, thank you.

I've... well, I've been doing a lot of thinking lately Tink. I'm not the same person you once knew.

But I'm happy to be back... it does me good to see you well.

*He sighed, and taking a deep sup of his warm spiced drink, relaxed into the seat and smiled warmly at her. It was still slightly forced, but one could see in his face a certain honesty, that at least if he didn't feel... he knew how he ought to feel...*

*He holds up a long blonde braid still attached to a scalp*

The hunting was good last night!

*chuckles*
I bet.

*tucks the scalp away before to many people notice it*

So, Celeste, How have you been? Any luck reconnecting w/ your inner voice?

Well... *he said, avoiding all discussions of his present health*... I'm well, thank you.

*tucks the scalp away before to many people notice it*

So, Celeste, How have you been? Any luck reconnecting w/ your inner voice?

Well, strange you should mention that *she leans on the bar*, I get the strangest sensations sometimes... and I am more at peace than I 've ever been...*shakes her head* Maybe the end of the world was good medicine for me.

Well, strange you should mention that *she leans on the bar*, I get the strangest sensations sometimes... and I am more at peace than I 've ever been...*shakes her head* Maybe the end of the world was good medicine for me.
*nods his head thoughtfully* maybe...maybe.*turns slightly and looks out the windows and the storm*

feeling left out decides to play shoot the duck with his shotgun and a rubber duck at a table in the corner of the bar room. "If anyone needs me just Holler"

*she puts the kodachi away and downs the last of her sake. dark lightning bolts crackle around her black fingernails and suddenly the glass is refilled.*

nothin' like a good, cold sake...

hello noire... would you like to join me in some shoot the duck?

and I'm happy to see you back, and I hope i get to spend some time with you before you dissapear again
*touching her hand gently, he closed his eyes and thought of a time in the not too distant past when his heart had been broken... the memory was almost more than he could bear, but he let thoughts of the better times behind, and of the bright places ahead take over...*

I hope so too. I do.

hello noire... would you like to join me in some shoot the duck?

sure.

*she subtly removes a throwing knife from her belt, and before anyone notices movement, the duck is pinned to the wall by a small black knife.*

hmm... that was a pretty decent throw, if I do say so myself...

*she takes another sip of sake.*

this is a fun game! I won this round.

*Sniffs the air twice*

*looks at Celeste*

You ever get the feeling youre being watched?

*Sniffs the air twice*

*looks at Celeste*

You ever get the feeling youre being watched?

*her eyes take on a haunted look*
In this place? Always...

stunned from Noire pinning his rubber duckey to the wall he walks over to see if the duckie is ok and somehow trips over a nail on the floor and because his dumbass forgot to put the shotgun on saftey shoots himself in the foot.. *jumps around wildly screaming OWWWWWWW MY FOOOOOOOTTTTTT* slowly he calms down and is able to take another shot of his gin and he downs 3 beers... ahhhh makes the foot feel better he picks the shotgun up unloads it and hands it to noire. please hold that for me.. i might need it later

and you?

*nods at Noir and takes a long drink of white wine*

*touching her hand gently, he closed his eyes and thought of a time in the not too distant past when his heart had been broken... the memory was almost more than he could bear, but he let thoughts of the better times behind, and of the bright places ahead take over...*

I hope so too. I do.
would you like to dance? *blushes*

*Sniffs the air twice*

*looks at Celeste*

You ever get the feeling youre being watched?

*hearing the words, her eyes flicker over the two, and begin to glow light blue. she shifts her hand from her drink to the shuriken dangling from her left ear. her attention is diverted by the drink, and suddenly it disappears with a small explosion. a few black embers fall from her hand.*

I'm needed elsewhere... work calls..

*she slips upstairs to her room, puts on her trenchcoat and unsheaths her two katanas. walking downstairs, she tests the blade against her thumb, and like with the kodachi, it begins to bleed. she smiles at the sight.*

good... they're still sharp. best blades I own.

*turning on her heel, she stalks out of the bar and into the rain.*

*hops up and sits on the end of the bar, her long legs crossed and swinging slightly*

where are you?

well i was ok until Noire pinned my bestest friend in the whole world to the wall :( and then i shot myself in the foot going to see if he was ok... *looks at the puddle of blood on the floor underneath him* im thinking i might need a doctor.. or a really big band aid.. anyone got a First Aid Kit?

*Neut walks over to his dark corner in the back of the bar. As he passes Celeste he grins and nods his head at her*

*thows the first aid kit over to Jose*

there y'are darlin' - and would you mind cleaning up the puddle. My experience in this place is that blood stains the floor boards something chronic ;)

*her eyes take on a haunted look*
In this place? Always...
I've have to leave again. They're closer than I thought and I don't want to see anyone around here hurt when they show up. *drops his jacket and duffle bag before tearing his flesh off in several quick slashes of his claws, revealing the hard grey hide*

Keep your eyes open for someone who looks like me but doesn't seem quite right. *smiles, fangs gleaming*

*hunched over to avoid damaging the ceiling w/ his head, Tullamore shuffles out the back door and into the storm*

Tink, I am always ready to dance with you.

*he smiled, and picking up her hand, led her out to the floor*

ooc: sorry - I have some work to get done here - it will be a while before my next reply. ;)

*she sees Neut from the corner of her eye, grinning at her. her eyes blazes with an inner fire she has not felt in a long time... almost as if... but it can't be. she walks over to Neut*

Hello, Celeste

The rapport of small-arms fire can just be heard over the storm

Thanks for the First Aid kit prue bandages his foot with some gauze pads he finds in the bottom of the kit and takes a towel and sops up the blood on the floor...


Now anyone got some Duck Tape?

Tink, I am always ready to dance with you.

*he smiled, and picking up her hand, led her out to the floor*

ooc: sorry - I have some work to get done here - it will be a while before my next reply. ;)
*puts her arms around his neck, looks into his eyes and smiles*

ooc: tis ok

Hello, Celeste

*she can' t hold his stare for long and breaks off first*
Hello Neut. I... never got the chance to thank you... for saving me. And helping me raise Jerry.

Thanks for the First Aid kit prue bandages his foot with some gauze pads he finds in the bottom of the kit and takes a towel and sops up the blood on the floor...


Now anyone got some Duck Tape?

er...is that tape for taping ducks or do ya mean duct tape?

*chucks both over for Jose to catch*

OOC: psssssssst...suggest you try putting your actions between * * or () or something - it makes reading for others so much easier ;)

*is conscious of firing outside*

where are you?

*she can' t hold his stare for long and breaks off first*
Hello Neut. I... never got the chance to thank you... for saving me. And helping me raise Jerry.

Ahh, you have no need to thank me. Someone needs to protect you from yourself.

*Neut's eyes sparkle with humor*

Ahh, you have no need to thank me. Someone needs to protect you from yourself.

*Neut's eyes sparkle with humor*

*her eyes flash for a moment*
And what does that mean, exactly?

ty for the tape Prue *uses the tape for taping the bandage on his foot* there now i have a true redneck bandage, now where in the hell did my shotgun go?

OH YEAH i handed it to Noire and she took off... oh well every redneck knows, always carry a pistol for good luck... *wraps the rubber duckie up in a bunch of tape and begins playing shoot the duck again*

OOC: thanks for the info i usually do enclose in * but i kinda forgot that time :p

*some feeling particularly observant would swear they saw a shadow appear, looking just like Jon. After a second or two, it disappeared though*



ooc: Just a tag.

*her eyes flash for a moment*
And what does that mean, exactly?

You are not as powerful here as you once were, Goddess *Neut replies in a soft voice*

You are not as powerful here as you once were, Goddess *Neut replies in a soft voice*

*she is taken aback*
How do you know so much? And don't call me that!

*she is taken aback*
How do you know so much? And don't call me that!

*Neut laughs softly*

When you've been around as long as I have, you know many things. Dont worry, your secret is safe with me

*Neut laughs softly*

When you've been around as long as I have, you know many things. Dont worry, your secret is safe with me

*puzzled*
What secret?

ty for the tape Prue *uses the tape for taping the bandage on his foot* there now i have a true redneck bandage,

Surely a red foot bandage ;)

OOC: thanks for the info i usually do enclose in * but i kinda forgot that time :p

don't mensh...nice tongue you've got there :D

*puzzled*
What secret?

Ahh, we will not speak of it again. No need for prying ears to know. How are you feeling today?

*puts her arms around his neck, looks into his eyes and smiles*
*smiling back, he turned to the jukebox, and with Tink in tow, he placed a few quarters in the drive and selected two songs... When the music began to play... he smiled at her again, then took her by the small of her back and guided her out on to the wooden floor-boards... where they began to dance... *

A personal favourite Tink, I hope you like it...

*...and as the song came on, the lyrics surrounded them like a warm spring breeze... as the dipped and swayed... as the turned and stepped slowly across the floor... all was right in the world... at least for a little while...*



Oh, if I had my way I would never go back
With my back to the wall, I just let myself fall
Watch the daytimes turn black
But now and again I find you cross my mind

Oh, if I was a train I would never slow down
My head in the sky and world goin' by every nowhere town
As I write one more letter to you
No, I can't change the things I do, ohhhh

One day when you discover just why I ran
ran away from you, lover
Well I know i'm to blame
I feel so ashamed
Called out your name
Ohhhh, after the rain

Well, what do you want me to do?
I've thrown away everything for you
Well, I've wasted my dreams
Each day it seems
Losing my way back to you

It's time for a change
What else could i do?
With the clock ticking time
Better make up my mind
Is it me or is it you?
Yeah tonight as i'm losing control
I will drink to the queen of my soul

One day when it is discovered just why i ran, ran away
ran away from you, lover
I know i'm to blame
I feel so ashamed
Called out your name
Ohhhh, after the rain...

ooc: Thanks for asking me to dance Tink, I was building up to that myself. :)

**vaga wanders in and looks around**
no sign of Gael. good.
**he makes his way into the club and to the bar**

Ahh, we will not speak of it again. No need for prying ears to know. How are you feeling today?

*she sits down opposite him*
I am... at peace, oddly enough. I've been quite upset and angry and sad and scared recenlty, but today, just... at peace.

*she sits down opposite him*

I am pleased to hear this, Goddess. Walk with me through the gardens?

it's a beautiful song *dances* some of my best memories are dancing with you


ooc: I thought so

I am pleased to hear this, Goddess. Walk with me through the gardens?

*she tilts her head*
Considering the weather... the library, maybe?
*she gets up with him and they both go down the long hallway to the library.

**smirks as life goes on as usual around him**
these poor souls dont have a clue. prehaps its better that way...
**he grabs his usual bottle of rum and heads for the balcony**

**vaga wanders in and looks around**
no sign of Gael. good.
**he makes his way into the club and to the bar**

*drops down from roof behind Vaga*
(with a malicious look)What's the matter?

it's a beautiful song *dances* some of my best memories are dancing with you


ooc: I thought so
*as they swung slowly around the dance floor... locked onto each other... and holding tightly... he smiled faintly...*

Memories... yes... I have many good ones of you too... the ones of us dancing have always been held fondest by my heart Tink. It's during moments like this that I realize I've missed you most...

**looks over his shoulder for a moment, then contenues on his way**
nothing to concern yourself with.

after a long dinner im back... i also have Gin and Juice so whos up for a good ole fashioned Bloddy mary? made from the good stuff even :-D forget that old crap thats made from the nasty tasting vodka Gin is the bestest goes great with everything... and i also got a couple cases of beer for those who dont drink gin and i got a big jar of lemonade for those who dont drink at all so take your pick what'll it be *Assumes Role of Bartender*

**looks over his shoulder for a moment, then contenues on his way**
nothing to concern yourself with.

(with a concerned look on its face)Come now, something must be up if you hope Gael isn't here.

*as they swung slowly around the dance floor... locked onto each other... and holding tightly... he smiled faintly...*

Memories... yes... I have many good ones of you too... the ones of us dancing have always been held fondest by my heart Tink. It's during moments like this that I realize I've missed you most...
*smiles then rests her head on Lasc's shoulder holding him tighter* sometimes i just wish i could put my arms around you and never let you go

*sitting down on one of the stools, passively gazing at the others a yawn creeps up on him.*

There's place I haven't been in a while.

*He gets up and slowly leaves the room*

*smiles then rests her head on Lasc's shoulder holding him tighter* sometimes i just wish i could put my arms around you and never let you go

*unbeknowenst to all, a small black object attatched to the ceiling watches them*

This could prove useful...

**smirks to himself**
its complicated. she chose the wrong side. i did what i could, but she didnt listen. when push comes to shove, she will stand with Atreyu, not me. and because of that, i must treat her as an enemy.

*begins shooting wildly at the cieling with his shotgun until he's eventually covered the whole cieling* there... now there aint a small black anything watching anyone... its ok all feel free to continue to have fun

**smirks to himself**
its complicated. she chose the wrong side. i did what i could, but she didnt listen. when push comes to shove, she will stand with Atreyu, not me. and because of that, i must treat her as an enemy.

Really...*barely prevents himself from showing any sign of joy at the news*

**vaga wanders in and looks around**
no sign of Gael. good.
**he makes his way into the club and to the bar**

*watches a familiar figure enter the bar*

need a soldier, friend? Atreyu's no friend of mine!

i'll take what i can get, but i'm not sure i can use you. what with the new Jhenova looking the way he does.

i'll take what i cn get, but i'm not sure i can use you. what with the new Jhenova looking the way he does.

and just how does the new Jhenova look?

*hears gun shots below him*

Those things are really annoying, somebody could get hurt.

*moves away, from the part of the roof above the bar*

like Jhen, but with shorter hair. you know that already.

like Jhen, but with shorter hair. you know that already.

so you think that'll influence me? if you do you are mistaken. I saw the violence in his eyes when he looked at me. Whoever, whatever he is, he has almost no knowledge of me

OOC: tg

**walks out onto the balcony into the torntial rain**

OOC: good night guys im going to head to bed gots a big day tomorrow so i'll tlak to you all later on

*Soundlessly, she uncurled herself and pushed off the wall, standing slowly. In the dark, only the dull glow of her eyes were visible, though small glares relected off her various metal surfaces. Silently, she stepped out of her room and made her way down to the main bar.*

*she drags herself in from the outside, her trenchcoat dripping with rain mixed with blood. a massive cut down the side of her face bleeds heavily, and the hand holding her katana is cut almost to ribbons.*

damn... that was one of the hardest killings I've ever had to make...

*she limps over to the bar counter, and as her blue eyes glow faintly, a soft white flame flares up around her. the bleeding stops, although the wounds are still there. she winces as she cleans the katana and sheaths it.*

*Comes down stairs a few minutes after Gael.*

OOC: Damn... miss a night and miss a lot.

OOC: I wish someone had informed me with a TG since ive been in a daze from Tuesday...Gaeeelll.......oh and wish me happy birthday. Sure it kills the mood but...

*Shudders, spotting the female and the blood...*

OOC: Happy Bday Jhen! What did you want to be informed of? Nothing's really happened.

OOC: I wish someone had informed me with a TG since ive been in a daze from Tuesday...Gaeeelll.......oh and wish me happy birthday. Sure it kills the mood but...OOC: HAPPY BIRTHDAY! *Tosses Zen Lei to Jhenova.*

Hello, Gene... hello, RA. how are things?

*she begins wrapping her shredded hand in a bandage, her eyes glowing faintly. the cut to the side of her face is almost healed.*

Hello, Noire.

*looks at his planet, still hovering 5 feet off the ground*

*is amazed that it didn't fall to the floor and crack open and spill red hot magma all over the place*

*the side of her face is simply a faint scar now. having bandaged her left hand, dark fire crackles around her undamaged hand, and a vodka appears.*

yes... work happened.

*she shakes her head in frustration.*

I can't believe I let my guard down in a fight as simple as that. I think I've been getting a little cocky lately.. I need to get some more practice in.

ooc: my entrance on pg. 27... my hand and face were all cut up.

thanks for the offer, but I think I've got it covered...

we should all have a sparring match sometime. no killing, of course...

*she laughs.*

Oh. Well, if and/or when you're ready, I can give you an army to fight, if you ever get bored ;) :D

ooc : replied again.

OOC: Replied.

ok fine if you insist here's a bottle of Vodka... hows about summoning me a nice Irish Ale? or mabe another bottle of southern comfort... *stumbles back to the bar to assume his role as bartender*

*black fire explodes around her hand as an Irish Ale appears. she slides it down the bar counter to Jose.*

here you go.. although I don't think you should have any more... it might be bad for your health.. heh.

*a gallon of chocolate milk appears for gene on the bar*

Sure. :D

I could have guessed that one... haha.

*black fire explodes around her hand as an Irish Ale appears. she slides it down the bar counter to Jose.*

Woo Hoo Irish Ale :-D :mp5: :mp5: :sniper: ready set *tosses the duck up for Noire to shoot* SHOOT THE DUCK :p :fluffle: :headbang:

*grabs a glass and another bottle of vodka*
i like this kind though

*she laughs.*

that's perfectly understandable.

*the black fire around her hand disappears and she takes another drink from her bottle.*

I could have guessed that one... haha.
:D

*chugs*

*Lifting the bottle, she made for the forgotten hallways once more where all the hordings from the past had been stored. To that place she so often visited to be alone and to think and to seek guidance.*

OOC:shit too busy studing
IC: *pager goes off*
ah shit, cya guys

later, RA.

ooc: Happy birthday Jhenova.

ic: I've got so many questions, that need to be answered.

*finds a way down from the roof and heads towards the bar, via the long hallway.*

*looks around, and sees Gene sitting there chugging his gallon of chocolate milk.*

looks like our drinking buddies left. now we just need to have Kel walk in..

*she laughs*

anyway, what's new with you?

**he sighs, sensing the termoil within Gael**
i'm sorry luv. i really am.
**downs a bit of his rum and closes his eyes, taking in the cool tinggling feeling of the rain drops sliding down his face**

*looks around, and sees Gene sitting there chugging his gallon of chocolate milk.*

looks like our drinking buddies left. now we just need to have Kel walk in..

*she laughs*

anyway, what's new with you?
Me?

*finishes chugging*

*watches Gael leave* :(

That makes two of us.

**he sighs and drops he head a little and thinks to himself "i'm really begining to hate this world"**

*Comes downstairs... looks at all the people.*
the final party perhaps?

*Sends out a sort of mental probe.*

Nekone?

Me?

*finishes chugging*

no.. the other Gene who is chugging chocolate milk... haha...

*she laughs and seeing that her vodka bottle is empty, it disappears in a flash of black fire (ooc: like all her other empty drinks do; lol. sorry for being unoriginal.) and she materializes a cold sake with ice in front of her. the scar down her face is completely healed; however, her damaged hand is not.*

*walks into the bar and sees Noire, Nekone and Gene*

Nope, nope and nope. Oh well, he'll probably show up eventually. I have something of his.

*decideds to stand next to the new bar*

*Sends out a sort of mental probe.*

Nekone?
[Gael? I'm here.]

(Jhenovas figure is far in the distance, sitting crouched by a Tree. In the backround two men moved in tight black clothing. Their faces were obscured by masks covered with many different eletronic eyes that were constnatly resizing. He sensed Gael and he knew, if she tried, she could feel him too. Atreyu connected her. In the distance similar groups moved and studied the groundwork. He looked for her. The girl. He found himself becoming near obsessed with it. His hatred felt so right that maybe, it felt wrong. He remebered the old Jhenova. His friend. He remebered his own real name. Grey. Grey sat there watching for her, her black hair...and he missed himself. He wasnt Grey anymore though, he was Jhenova. Ryath didnt exsist anymore, he died as the old Jhenova and Jhenova couldnt miss him or his lover more.)

no.. the other Gene who is chugging chocolate milk... haha...

*she laughs and seeing that her vodka bottle is empty, it disappears in a flash of black fire (ooc: like all her other empty drinks do; lol. sorry for being unoriginal.) and she materializes a cold sake with ice in front of her. the scar down her face is completely healed; however, her damaged hand is not.*
That's me, silly :D

What's new with me? nothing much. Well, my planet is close to it's next step in it's evolution...

*Her new sense allowed her to feel things in a severly amplified sense. Every movement of even the smallest animals, if they were within a certain radius did not escape her notice. It was a bit overwhelming, and deciphering the different signatures was still a small challenge. But He was near, and this was the one thing she knew for certain. Silent, she leaned against the wall amid the dust, staring at nothing, beckoning more with suggestion than actual thought.*

Nekone..

That's me, silly :D

What's new with me? nothing much. Well, my planet is close to it's next step in it's evolution...

your planet?

*a confused look is on her face.*

*looking around, Nekone quietly moved away from the bar... sliding down to all fours, he silently pads his way upstairs... following a familiar scent... *

[Hang in there...]

your planet?

*a confused look is on her face.*
My planet. Aurea Borealis.

*Points to an earthlike sphere twice the size of a basketball hovering 5 feet off the ground 3 feet away behind him, with it's one moon orbiting it*

My planet. Aurea Borealis.

*Points to an earthlike sphere twice the size of a basketball hovering 5 feet off the ground 3 feet away behind him, with it's one moon orbiting it*

Aurea Borealis.. I like the name.

*she goes over to look at the planet, taking her drink with her.*

wow... neat. I like.

*looks at the planet following Gene*

Got her well trained huh? :D

sure you wanna have that here what with everything going on?

**Vaga looks up and out into the darkness**
does it never stop?
**he sighs and looks over his shoulder**
they're not ready. not now. have to stall.
**he looks back out into the darkness and downs the last of the rum, the jumps over the ledge and disapears to defend the club**

*She waited patiently, drinking her rum in the dim silence.*

Aurea Borealis.. I like the name.

*she goes over to look at the planet, taking her drink with her.*

wow... neat. I like.
Thanks. :) It was named after the Northern Lights, because when I put it out in direct sunlight once, this planet's auroras glowed brightly even in the day.

IC: *the door opened just a crack... a low figure entered and the door quietly closed. Silvery Gold eyes scan the room untill it makes out the winged figure in the corner.*

Gael? You ok?

Uh...Gene *fiddling with some dead flesh on his front arm*.....have you seen
*motions to the three large holes in his chest*.....recently?

Thanks. :) It was named after the Northern Lights, because when I put it out in direct sunlight once, this planet's auroras glowed brightly even in the day.

OOC: a screenshot :)

oh... nifty. Northern Lights... haven't seen those in a while. or any light, really.. around here, it always seems to be dark and rainy. sucks to fight in. *glances out the window*

ooc: perty!

(jhenova watched idly as the teams continued their scan of the place. A scouting force and rapidly sent information to each other and back to random and many locations for analysis. These were mostly typical humans so no need to capture and autopsy them. Jhenova reached out again with his being and felt Gael in there. He wondered if the other Girl was in there. He wondered who else would be in there...Jhenova reached into his pocket and took out a long slim cigarette before setting it into his mouth. He did not light it, not now, but he would later.)

Gael? You ok?
OOC: My bad.

IC:
I've been better. You're the closest to ever seeing me in a position of weakness, so I see no harm in requesting your presence here.

*Sighs, with another long swallow.*

*looks at the planet following Gene*

Got her well trained huh? :D

sure you wanna have that here what with everything going on?
OOC: earlier, i've already evacuated most of the PC world's population onto a plutonian tri-ship, which is waiting for me to deploy the planet. Just in case the PC world really did end. ;)

gotta find a way to cut off that connnection he has with them. he can feel it if i hit them now..
**as he advances, he contemplates various mental tequniques he could use to sever the connections**

*winces and grabs his left arm.*

*turns to look out the window, her pale blue eyes glowing faintly*

I actually think I'm going to take a walk... I could use some alone time.

*she puts on her trenchcoat and makes sure her wristblades, katanas, shurikens, and various other weapons are all at an easy reach. I'll never know when I need them... and they will always be there for me. it seems rather sad that one can trust steel more than a human being. Turning on her heel, she walked out the door and into the misty night.*

ooc: perty!
OOC: thank you :) :fluffle: :D

IC: Ah. it'll all be over soon, i hope. :)

Uh...Gene *fiddling with some dead flesh on his front arm*.....have you seen
*motions to the three large holes in his chest*.....recently?
Celeste? or the guy who shot you?

I've been better. You're the closest to ever seeing me in a position of weakness, so I see no harm in requesting your presence here.

*Sighs, with another long swallow.*
*stands and goes to her.*
you ok? it was hard to tell before you... err... got upgraded?

*looks at the planet following Gene*

Got her well trained huh? :D

sure you wanna have that here what with everything going on?
You could say that. She did survive a deadly virus a month ago or two.

Celeste? or the guy who shot you?

The man, who gave me a nice long nap.

Uh...Gene *fiddling with some dead flesh on his front arm*.....have you seen
*motions to the three large holes in his chest*.....recently?err... Jerry... you alright? you don't look so hot.

Physically I'm fine. I haven't been this fine since...well since I was alive. And even then, it's been quite some time. My troubles are all up here..

*Touches one talon to her temple, the bracer glinting eerily under the glow from her eyes.*

(Reports started coming in all over suddenly. A woman had left the bar. She had black hair. Jhenovas heart fluttered with excitement. If you could call it a heart. It wasnt so much flesh anymore. He moved towards her. THey sent him directions of his path. He followed them. He knew where to intercept her at. He leaned against a tree and waited. Jhenova looked at a small band on his arm. Not only was he telepathiclly connected to these people but, being a Special Op Team he had their livesigns monitored by a small PDA attached to his forearm. There were only eight, in teams of two are various positions around the club. Far out in the forests. Not very strong telekenticly but filled with enchanments. They were not human.)

ooc: Man + three large holes in my chest.
OOC: :confused:

IC: Iiii... don't think so....

Physically I'm fine. I haven't been this fine since...well since I was alive. And even then, it's been quite some time. My troubles are all up here..

*Touches one talon to her temple, the bracer glinting eerily under the glow from her eyes.*Oh... [I would offer to help, but I don't know how...]

I would help you, if you wish it...

knowing the order, they'll have tech stuff too. oh well. might as well get this over with.
**he had made it around behind the first team. silently he drew his toothed blade and snuck up quietly**

err... Jerry... you alright? you don't look so hot.

*Turns to face Ju*

Nah, I am cool now.

*It was clear from his ragged form, his rotted flesh and his blank eyes, that he wasn't the same*

*she found a path and began the long walk down it towards the clearing ahead by the ocean, her uninjured hand constantly toying with the lone shuriken dangling from her left ear. I can't believe this hand hasn't healed yet... that delon-lizard really messed me up. her luminescent eyes glanced at the moon reflecting from the water, and she sat on the ground to think. I wonder why I ever left home...*

IC: Iiii... don't think so....

That's cool, when you do just tell him I am grateful.

*winces again.*

*looks around the room.*

What the hell?

That's cool, when you do just tell him I am grateful.
Oh, you like your new "style"?

(Jhenova follows behind her and stands still. Ten feet from her, he feels nothing. She cant be...)

Who are you.

(Jhenova states blandly.)

--------------

(The teams were preparing to leave. The group Vaga is behind are crouched next to trees, finishing up the last of the information relays.)

*he thinks about it for a second or two, with a big grin*

Ya...ya, I do like it.

**with all the speed he possesed he downed the two spies. the first, he slight clean across the throat and twisted the hed clean off. then, before the second has time to react, he jams the dagger into the bace of the man's kneck, severing the spinal chord. the two drop and Vaga moves on, picking up a silenced weapon one of them was carrying**

(The teams were preparing to leave. The group Vaga is behind are crouched next to trees, finishing up the last of the information relays.)

*upon hearing a voice, she slowly slid her wristblades closer to her hand, in case they needed to be accessed. the voice sounded oddly familiar, for some reason.. she turned, and from beneath the hood she wore, her eyes glowed with blue fire.*

Who am I?

*with shock, she recognizes the face.*

Grey?

(The entire team, now alerted by the death of two comrades begin to leave. This is no black op. they can take casualities. The only weapon any of them carried is a Silenced Handgun of Unknown Design firing light armor piercing rounds. Jhenova stays. Vaga can chase down the remaining six if he wishes.)

*stares our the window...*

*Thinks he sees movement.*

This order... what do they want?

leave none to tell the tale...
**he checks the handgun to make sre its loaded, then chases off after them. Jhen was staying behind, though why he had no idea**

I don't know. I just didn't really want to be alone. God, I'm slipping.

*Grins with a melancholy amusement, examining her talons.*

OOC: so much for secrecy, you bastards.

(Jhenova spat the name out in dissappointment.)

Noire. How nice to see you again.

(Jhenova lit his cigarette.)
