[02-02:57] ed2, *Kailynn Benson : *stops in front of a door and holds out her hand* give me the key *wiggles her fingers impatiently, but doesn't insist any further for him to rush*
[02-03:00] 30b, *Jaylin Anderson : *hands her the key, very confused, almost dropping it in the process, and putting the free hand onto the doorframe to hold himself up once he’s handed it over, and decides asking questions, probably wouldn’t help right now, and he really does want to get into the room and try and pass out for a few hours at least*
[02-03:01] 221, *Jihan Aloula: *decides now its time to call out to her* Hey Red! Would your man be interested in a second gal?
[02-03:03] 5d0, *Rowena Michaels : ((*watches. Tests icon.*))
[02-03:03] 5d0, *Rowena Michaels : ((*Blinks and shuts up...and continues to watch.*))
[02-03:04] ed2, *Kailynn Benson : *just pretends not to hear, she opens the door quickly all the way. It's not any regal suite, but it's still one hell of a nice room considering the city* Go ahead*
[02-03:04] 221, *Jihan Aloula: *catches up close to them easily enough as she WAS being slowed down by a wounded man* Hey...
[02-03:08] 30b, *Jaylin Anderson : *that call definitely catches his attention and gives him pause, and obviously points out what the rush is about. He turns his head to look for the owner of the voice, a bit of a ‘what the hell?’ look on his face at the question that was asked, though there are only a few possibilities as to the conclusions it can let him jump to now, and he doesn’t quite go into the room yet. The ‘what the hell’ look is replaced by something else, as he recognizes Jihan from the bar a couple nights back* Interesting…*takes a step inside the room still supporting himself on the doorframe* Well, whatever is going on…*glances between the two women* I’m to out of it to deal with, so I’m just gonna go pass out now.
[02-03:10] ed2, *Kailynn Benson : Yes *hands him the key* Go sleep. You have three days here.
[02-03:11] 221, *Jihan Aloula: *rae's at Kailynn*
[02-03:11] 30b, *Jaylin Anderson : Thanks…*gives Jihan one last glances before going into the room and shutting the door, promptly passing out on the bed without giving it a second though, he could clean up and whatnot later*
[02-03:12] 30b, *Jaylin Anderson : ((thought not though))
[02-03:13] 30b, *Jayde: and now I need to go pass out too
[02-03:15] ed2, *Kailynn Benson : (g'night Jayde.)
[02-03:15] 30b, *Jayde: *waves/hugs goodnight and crawls off to bed*

[02-03:21] 221, *Jihan Aloula: Looking for a good time. *follows her* I thougtht I saw one.
[02-03:25] ed2, *Kailynn Benson : Well, go knock on his door... though I don't think he can afford you *has to go through the lobby, getting another surprised look from the girl from the desk*
[02-03:29] 221, *Jihan Aloula: Awww Red. You don't needa be pissy at me. Its not like I was trying to steal business.
[02-03:32] ed2, *Kailynn Benson : I told you I was out for 6 weeks. I'm not even in work clothes... what are you after? You're everywhere I go.
[02-03:34] 221, *Jihan Aloula: I'm one of those desert spirits. You'll encounter me wherever you go. *said jovialy*

[02-03:40] 221, *Jihan Aloula: Mary Anne, I'm not here to hurt you. If you see me you should be happy. It means I'm there to watch your back. I'll be the friendliest person to my companions and an utter bitch to anyone that crosses me. So calm down.
[02-03:42] ed2, *Kailynn Benson : This isn't my life, you know... *stops on the side of the road, nearly stepping in front of a cab as it comes by... she's not taking a chance on it passing her* I have to get home an feed my cat. I'll see you later.

[02-17:55] 221, *Cookie Monster: Where would youl like to put him?
[02-18:02] cb7, *Jayde: He's probaby coming out of his room at the Sundance after cleaning up etc to go out for a bit and get some things
[02-18:04] 221, *Jihan Aloula: *is standing just outside the door, apparently waiting for him to exit. Just how long HAS she been there?
[02-18:04] 221, *Jihan Aloula: *
[02-18:10] cb7, *Jaylin Anderson : *at some point during the night he’d finally woken up, finished off half the mini bar, then taken a shower. He’d washed his clothes as best he could, and taken care of the cut over his eye finally. He still had that and the bruise on his cheek, but he looked almost a hundred percent better. He’d finished off the last of the mini-bar, then decided he probably should go get some clothes to change into since the one’s he had on still weren’t dong all that great after the treatment he’d give them. His stuff was probably in boxes outside his apartment since his landlord had threatened to do it if he didn’t come get the stuff, so he could at least go see what he had left to work with. He grabs the room key and slips into his pocket before opening the door and takes a few steps out, pausing when he see Jihan standing right here, remembering her from the bar a couple nights ago, as well as having knowing that woman who’d helped him last night, who’s name he never actually got* Hello
[02-18:13] 221, *Jihan Aloula: Hi. *smirks* You look a little worse for wear.
[02-18:18] cb7, *Jaylin Anderson : Still alive though *shuts the door behind him as he steps out of the room completely* Is there something you need? *doesn’t really know what to expect, and he honestly doesn’t have any idea why she’d be here, he doesn’t have anything anyone would want, and he doesn’t really have any friends*
[02-18:20] 221, *Jihan Aloula: I don't need anything. I just wanted to watch you. For no other reason than my friend doesn't want me doing so.
[02-18:23] cb7, *Jaylin Anderson : That…makes no sense…that woman from last night…she’s your friend? *is just making sure, since he really knows nothing about either of them or the situation, or why just because someone helped him and doesn’t seem to want her friends to know makes him interesting enough to be watched*
[02-18:24] 221, *Jihan Aloula: Yep. Or close enough. She doesn't realy pick up many friends, so I'm a ready substitute.
[02-18:26] cb7, *Jaylin Anderson : Uh-uh *is just really confused, which is annoying since he’d thought the world had finally started to make sense again since he’d stopped being sober, as much sense as that particular logic makes anyway* Okay, then, I’m going this way if your going to follow *starts walking towards the lobby* I have stuff to go pick up
[02-18:27] 221, *Jihan Aloula: Lead on Macduff.
[02-18:29] cb7, *Jaylin Anderson : *glances back and shakes his head slightly as he walks to the lobby doors* She get in trouble a lot so you have to watch out for her or something? *is figuring maybe that woman picked up a lot of bad guys, and that was why he was getting followed now*
[02-18:36] 221, *Jihan Aloula: Nah, saw her by fate.
[02-18:38] cb7, *Jaylin Anderson : Okay…I really don’t get it then, just cause she told you I wasn’t important or whatever….you decided to watch me. I remember you from the bar the other night, so I know your not some ordinary human woman…but that still doesn’t help me figure this out any more *gets outside and keeps walking, standing on the corner to try and hail a cab* ((I gotta go soon))
[02-18:39] 221, *Jihan Aloula: ((later!))
[02-18:40] 221, *Jihan Aloula: I'm not here to help you. I'm here for my own amusement. Have a nice night.
[02-18:41] cb7, *Jaylin Anderson : Well…I hope it was amusing then…*gets a cab to stop* Guess I’ll see you around *gets into the cab and gives directions to his old residence*

[02-22:28] 1c7, *Tevesh: ~opens his eyes.. Where is he? It's dark, dank.. Smells of earth and decaying, rotting garbage.. The sounds are the typical city sounds, cars honking and people shouting.. Life going on as it usually does. He is stinky, coated with filth and grime and blood. He smells the blood on him and grimaces.. Tev looks at the brick walls and down into the lighted entrance.. He doesn't know where he is one bit.. Sits up and stares at the outside..~
[02-22:29] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Peeks through the peephole, she's been pacing around in circles trying to wear the nervousness out of her system before the audition...smiles warmly, but inwardly groans, thinking she's not ready..hesitates a moment before pulling the door open and embracing Damali tightly* I'm so nrevous...

[02-22:35] 1c7, *Tevesh : ~stands up slowly.. Is wearing his brown leather overcoat, which is extremely dirty now, a black shirt and brown stained pants.

Able to take over minds and convince them to do their bidding, without anything like his special abilities to work with.. Continues running down the street towards that bar where he stays..~

Steps off the bike and takes a few deep breaths before helping Damali off, kissing her again, getting some confidence from her just being there, immeadiatly heading around to the back entrance with her hand in hand, letting the back bouncer see Damali to let the get in* Lead the way, hun..*Smiles warmly, slipping her arm around her aist*

[02-23:05] a39, *Harmonia : ((Better then me. *Ponders rp*))
[02-23:06] 221, *Damali Aloula: *gives the hand on her waist an encouraging squeeze and leads her over to Cecile. True to Damali's word, she's quite friendly and gives Katya an eyeing over in a very "how much of this product can I sell" manner. She seems to think Katya's would sell extremely well and asks to see her do some dancing. Damali gives her an encouraging smile and moves over to give Katya room*
[02-23:16] 56a, ºGavin Livingston : *walks down the dirty streets of the city. A cigarette is hanging from his mouth, proof that smoking is more habit than addiction. The streetlights cast his tall, lean form in and out of shadow until he uses his shoulder to open the door to the bar*
[02-23:17] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Nods slowly, stepping back to give Cecile a good look and giving Damali a good look for confidence before getting into the music and listening, getting a feel for the beat. She waits for a slower beat in the song to start, swaying her hips side to side with each beat..like a slow dance beat. A little into the song she looks down and slowly raises her arms over her head, moving her hands to trace along her sides before stopping, throwing off her coat as the song bursts into a faster beat. Katya speeds up in time with the song, hips still swinging from side to side before she bends down fast and pulls up, flicking her hair back to smile seductivly at Damali, slowly tracing her hands back up her legs and thighs, running them up until she unbuttons her skirt a little bit, teasing by opening the flaps up before spinning around and throwing her hands up, bringing them back down to toy with the straps of her top*
[02-23:18] a39, *Harmonia : *she'll continue cleaning the bar adn look up at Gavin* Hey. What can I get ya?
[02-23:19] 221, *Damali Aloula: *Cecile watches, encouraging her and telling her to imagine doing this for a bunch of men*
[02-23:20] 56a, ºGavin Livingston : *smiles, closed lips. He carries himself with an almost unnatural grace and a bit of eeriness that he doesn't bother to hide. It's what helps him get along so well in the city* What do you have?
[02-23:21] a39, *Harmonia : *stands and shrugs putting the rag she was using below the bar* Like I said before. What can I get ya? We got just about anything and everything you could want
[02-23:25] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Begins sliding the straps down her arms, both at the same time, pulling her arms out and covering herself chastily, turning around again to imagine the crowd of men, whislting and waving their dollar bills. She shakes her hips more, bending down to give a tasty glimpse of cleavage before getting back up, shimying out of her shorts and kicking them off to the side like her jacket...looking to a nearby pole and grabbing out with one arm and swinging around once, sliding down to her knees and crawling forward, top barely hanging on*
[02-23:25] 56a, ºGavin Livingston : I think I'm fine. *plants himself on a barstool* Is this your place?
[02-23:27] a39, *Harmonia : *she nods and leans against the back of the bar* Yep. I don't think I've ever seen you here before

[02-23:29] a39, *Harmonia : Where do you work?

[02-23:31] 56a, ºGavin Livingston : I'm a bouncer at a strip club *doesn't look like much of a bouncer. He's not all that built or intimidating, though he does have a presence about him*

He’d gotten his clothes, amazingly enough the boxes his landlord had left out were still untouched when he’d gotten there, and he’d brought all of his stuff back to the hotel, though he knew he only had 2 more days paid there, he was going to have to find a way to get the money to stay, or end up on the street again. He’d changed into a clean pair of jeans, and a long sleeved blue shirt, trying not to look as beat up as he was as he walks over and sits down at the bar* Hey.
[03-00:59] a39, *Harmonia : *she smiles at him* Hey stranger. How are ya

[03-01:08] a39, *Harmonia : *she smiles and places a hand lightly on his shoulder* It's alright, you had every right too. And if you need a place to stay you are always welcome here. I'll cut you a break till you find work.
[03-01:13] c9b, *Jaylin Anderson : Well for the next couple of days I have a pretty nice room over at the Sundance hotel, really nice woman paid for me to stay there for a few days…not sure why, but she was a friend of that other woman who was in here before…Jihan…I’m not sure what the whole deal with either of those two is…but that’s a whole different story.
[03-01:14] a39, *Harmonia : *she'll laugh slightly* That's why i try not to ask to many questions

Though he doesn’t really have much to think about, or will let himself think about, beyond where he’s going to get rent money from, and where he’s going to be staying at that he’ll have to pay that rent money for after he leaves the hotel tomorrow*
[03-17:06] aef, *Kailynn Benson : *is already there, sitting in a corner table working on some mozzarella sticks... a little guilty pleasure. She has the newspaper spread open on the table, her eyes squinting to read in such dim light in the dim light*

[03-17:10] 129, *Jaylin Anderson : *after a few moments, he spots Kailynn. Who’d of guessed, and he actually glances around to see if Jihan is going to appear out of the shadows watching him. He shakes his head at the reaction, and then gets up to walk over to Kailynn’s table.* Hi.
[03-17:12] aef, *Kailynn Benson : *doesn't even look up. She just flips her page of the newspaper. Can't anyone go out for cheese sticks anymore without getting hit on* No, you can't buy me a drink and I'm not intrested in your number *her voice is flat, mechanical as if on auto-response*
[03-17:16] 129, *Jaylin Anderson : You’d have to do a lot more work then just sitting there looking pretty for me to offer to buy you a drink, or even consider giving you my number *folds his arms and just stands there, waiting for her to look up and see who it is she’s talking to* I still don’t even know your name
[03-17:19] aef, *Kailynn Benson : You know, buddy... *trails off as she does finally look up. Her irritated, hostile look fades a little bit in surprise* Oh... I told them not to give you my information at the desk.
[03-17:23] 129, *Jaylin Anderson : *speaks a bit flatly as he responds* And they didn’t, they are very good at following instructions over there. But your friend Jihan isn’t as good…she’s been…not stalking me, but watching me. Just wondering if you could shed more light on it than she did. The majority of what she had to say was ‘Because I want to, and someone else told me not to’ *shrugs, but doesn’t sit at the table, he doesn’t want to make her uncomfortable*
[03-17:27] aef, *Kailynn Benson : That's pretty much it. She tends to be everywhere I go... if I tell her to ignore something, she's all over it. I guess I need to work more on my reverse psycology. Plus, I think that she likes to bother people... especially me. *against her better judgement, she nods to the chair across from her.* Are you just going to stand there, or sit down?
[03-17:33] 129, *Jaylin Anderson : It’s rude to sit without an invitation, and I actually have to get going soon * his manner and general ability to keep his balance has greatly improved since the last time she would have seen him, along with just his overall general appearance* I was just wondering what her deal was…it’s a tad disturbing to open your hotel room door to find a woman standing there for no apparent reason. Just seeing if I could find some answers.
[03-17:36] aef, *Kailynn Benson : Most men wouldn't complain about finding a woman like her just outside of your hotel room. *she hesitates a moment... she doesn't know this guy, or why he was beat up. He could be dangerous and probably is... but since she's being so generiously stupid these days* And my name is Kailynn.
[03-17:38] 129, *Jaylin Anderson : It’s nice to have met you, my name is Jaylin. Well, maybe I’ll see you around, but for now I have to get out and do some things *smiles before he turns and walks out, he’s really got to get out there and find a way to make some quick money, and hanging out in the bar isn’t going to get him that*

[03-21:59] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Chuckles lightly, plucking a lime green one from the front, decorated with sparkly sequins around the crotch area* Yeah! How'd ya guess? *Grins, putting the thong around her midsection and looking down at it, pondering for a moment...lime was really Damali's thing...well, gets it for her then.* Thinking she could use something to warm up those cold Siberian nights, y'know? *Dripping with sarcasm*
[03-22:05] 7f8, ºMarley Watkins : (shoot... brb. a friend of mine is here and I have to get rid of him)
[03-22:07] 595, *Katya Yudin : ((ok))
[03-22:09] 7f8, ºMarley Watkins : (you know you're a dweeb when you blow off a party to sit around on your computer *grin*)
[03-22:10] 595, *Katya Yudin : ((*rofl*))
[03-22:10] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : *A news broadcast interrupts regularly scheduelled television programming to reveal a gleamy-eyed blonde anchorwoman with an earpiece, seated directly in front of a row of professional grade camera equipment. She shuffles some loose white papers on a desk in front of her before speaking* "We apologize for interrupting with this late-breaking report. Police are engaged in a standoff with a gunman along the southwestern side of town. Police have confirmed that at four of their men have been wounded, and three have been killed. Two of the wounded are in critical condition at Riverside hospital, and the names of the dead will not be released, pending notification of the families. The streetcorner of W. 127th and Triskett has been sectioned off with barriers, and police are routing traffic away from the area at all costs. The suspected Gunman is a man named Nikolai Drakov who has barricaded himself within his bar, an establishment known as the "Depot". Police received an anonymous tip that illegal munitions were being held in the basement, and according to eyewitnesses, Nikolai opened fire on the investigating officers when confronted with a search."
[03-22:11] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : (At least*)
[03-22:12] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : *Shaky helicopter video feed shows events from earlier in the day, where a row of police taking cover behind their vehicles are assaulted by a man with a tactical gas mask, body armor, and a Czech made submachine gun*
[03-22:14] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : *Currently, the streetcorner resembles a warzone. Three police cruisers have been totalled, and blastmarks in the pavement still smoulder with heat from the incendiary grenades Nikolai had used. The staircase leading down from the bar area has been removed, and he is currently moving about through his living quarters with duct tape and several claymores, laying them in corners behind doorways, among other locales*
[03-22:16] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : *Behind the red-eyed gasmask, his face is an expression of troubled discontent. A heavy sheen of of thick sweat lines his brow, soaking through his clothes and into the abused kevlar vest which sports at least seven nine-millimeter slugs. Only one had penetrated, though he didn't perceive the wound to be mortal. Nonetheless, it hurt like a bitch whenever his strides were too long*
[03-22:16] 7f8, ºMarley Watkins : *just smirks, leaning against a little table of videos* I hear you're coming to work at the Bush?
[03-22:18] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : *He turns to glance at the television as live-video feed is broadcast. Thanks to the journalists, he is now aware of the Swat Team creeping it's way into the gun-riddled bar. Seconds later, a Claymore detonates in a visceral CRACK!, hurling thousands of tiny metal beads in a focused cone. Two more officers are killed, and a third is greviously wounded*
[03-22:21] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : *He follows the Claymore's blast with a spray of AP gunfire, aimed blindly at an ascended angle through the wall above. The bar becomes saturated in a maelstrom of bullets, through which two more officers become wounded in spite of their Level IV vests. His ears ringing and his heart pounding, Nikolai pauses to reload, trying desperately not to feel like a cornered animal. Which, in truth, is precisely what he is*
[03-22:21] 7f8, ºMarley Watkins : (m-oth-y??? come innn)
[03-22:22] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Nods a bit, looking over a packet of pink pasties and absent mindly plucking them from the shelf* Yeah, Damali got me the interview last night and Cecile said I was good so...gonna be working finally. Plus, it's at a nice place and...get to share my lovely body with all the men here...*Smiles confidently for a second before realising what exactly she just sad...blushing again and looking back to a shelf of thigh high stockings, blinking a little at the TV in the corner of the store, the clerk not paying attention while he flips through a magazine idly*
[03-22:25] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : *The remainder of the Swat team withdrawls, taking their wounded and dead with them. The tear gas they had used earlier had done little more than limit Nikolai's visibility. The smoke steadily clears, and the police dig themselves in, securing all exits and getting ready for a long overnight stay. Meanwhile, Nikolai is doing the same, finally taking time out from his efforts after nearly an hour of trapping, barricading, and preparing. He sits himself down on the couch and removes the mask after the gas is cleared, his hair soaking wet with sweat and his eyes weary*
[03-22:27] 7f8, ºMarley Watkins : We'll see... I'm going for a drink. Enjoy your shopping *she blows an unrequited kiss to the guy working.* Don't hurt yourself honey
[03-22:28] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : *He did not enjoy killing police officers, but would lose little sleep over it. He respected them somewhat for their line of work, and considered them soldiers of a sort. It was a shame he had sent so many of them to their graves today, but he wasn't quite ready to go to jail. If the police tried to gain entrance into the basement, there would be several more grieving families in the near future*
[03-22:33] 595, *Katya Yudin : Hurt myself doing what? *SOunding withdrawn from the convo* Oh..ok, have fun...*Starts drifting towards the clerk counter, asking him to turn up the volume and putting all attention on the screen, gasping as the reports reveal what is happening* Nikolai....*Stays glued to the little TV, silently demanding her to tell more*
[03-22:41] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : *He pulls a medical kit from his bathroom shelf and messily spills it's contents onto the coffee table in his living room. Removing the vest, he pours a mixed cocktail of antisceptics over the fresh, raw, and bleeding hole in his abdomen. The bleeding was worse than he thought, but with some gauze and pressure, he manages to get it under control. The bullet passed completely through in spite of the vest, but if the wound became infected, he was a goner*
[03-22:41] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : *Test*
[03-22:42] JOIN: Richard Gatts has entered.
[03-22:45] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : *He reclines his head back against the sofa, panting heavily. The wound was beginning to sting terribly, and his vision was failing him. Waves of sparks and stars cloud his sight, followed soon after by a grey haze. All color becomes washed and dull for him, bland, lifeless, and shallow. He allows himself to pass out, knowing that the police would not be making any more moves until at least an hour from now. They may attempt to establish communication, but that would just be a lure to get him outside of the bar so that their snipers could tear his face off*
[03-22:48] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : *Meanwhile, back on the local news station, the same Gleam-Eyed blood fills the public in with an update* "The travesty continues as the Police finalize their barricades and attempt to establish communication with Nikolai Drakov, who has allegedly slain five police officers and wounded seven others." *A somewhat older picture of Nikolai is shown, and the woman begins to speak of his past deeds. Over time, people begin to lose interest, satisfied with hearing about how it all ended in the newspapers of the following morning*

She pays for the items, and tears out of the store, hopping onto her bike literally and racing off into the night...grumbling in Russian all the way. Why did this happen? Why tonight? Was he okay? All she can think about now...nothing else mattering, not even herself, weaving through traffic hurredly* Nikolai...you..*Rattles off a long stream of curses in Russian, cursing every thing from his family, to his ancestors,...even his dog if he has or had one*

[03-23:02] 5a6, *Nikolai Drakov : ((Afk, Katya and I need to catch Sealab realleh quick))
[03-23:02] f4c, *Jonathon Brice : John is currently in his own suit, which of course is the nicest and the biggest, he deserves it. Especially after all he put into the place. That and it also doubles at his house. Slowly walks out onto the large balcony, sipping his ever present martini, pausing at the rail to look out over the city.
[03-23:03] 595, *Katya Yudin : ((*lurves teh Sealab*))
[03-23:09] 316,Sebastian Rayne : *The bar was smoky, dimly lit, and crowded with people - though given the night of the week the crowding was more than slightly unusual, but the owners weren’t complaining. At the bar patrons jostled one another, even as others yelled at one another over the small circular tables spread across the breadth of the small single room, even as others argued across the rectangular tables of the booths which lined the walls - in the far right corner however was where much of the sound rose as the tightly gathered crowd watched a game of pool.* *It was in the center of this ring of patrons that he stood, glancing about at there faces briefly, many of them holding mugs of the house beer - beer that he swore tasted like nothing more than yellowed dishwater. A smile creasing his lips as a low curse would escape the lips of his opponent, that being his cue to make his move - taking several slow steps forward, circling about the battered table before choosing his position and leaning down across the thing, bringing up the pool cue, and without even a moments hesitation, he would bring the narrow point of the cue into the white ball, sending it forward so that it would strike first one ball, knocking it into a pocket before ricocheting back to strike another, and another in an effect that would cause the crowd about him to gasp, they not again making a sound until the black eight ball fell into one of the pockets - he standing straight as the group would begin to applaud his display, his lips moving rather close to the tip of the pool cue across which he would blow a soft breath of air as if it were the smoking barrel of a gun.*
[03-23:12] 7f8, ºMarley Watkins : *true to her word, she'd gotten a drink... paid for by a television executive who had blessedly passed out drunk. In her earlier days, she'd drugged them to get this exact reaction, but eventually... they caught on and complained to Cecile, who was pissed (though impressed) non the less. Now, she comes out on the balcony in a robe, holding a vodka martini. Only an hour left and can change and get to the club*
[03-23:18] f4c, *Jonathon Brice : He continued to gaze over the city, leaning onto the railing with his elbows, casually sipping his drink here and there. Then, rather absent mindly, he looks down. And though he's looking at the top of her, he reconizes Marley right away, which causes him to smark slightly. Tipping his glass ever so slightly, a small amount of martini spilling over, it should onl splatter a little bit, and land beside her on her balcony.
[03-23:21] 7f8, ºNico Blue: *leans against a table, watching one of the guys in her strange little posse take a shot. None of them would seem to have anything in common with any other, however, they all seem quite familair with each other. While most of them seem to have some kind of glitter glam so popular in the 70's or early 80's, or a more leather industrial look, Nico appears to have come from some remote island. Due to the heat, her shirt is a plain white tank top and bright, very thin fabric is wrapped around her several times for a skirt. Bracelets and tattoos aside, she looks like she should be outside an animal testing facility with a guitar instead of hanging out with this flamboyant crowd in a bar*
[03-23:22] f4c, *Jonathon Brice : OOC: Oh wow...I have an icon thing.

[03-23:28] f4c, *Jonathon Brice : He grins lightly as he leans a little further out over the edge, moving the glass to the side, threatening to tip it, this time on her head. ''Ah, but you forget, I own this hotel. I 'piss' where I please.'' Winks.
[03-23:30] 7f8, ºMarley Watkins : How could I forget? You remind me of your superiority every chance you get. *sips on her own drink, then looks up again after a few moments* Party's kind of dead down here. Can I come up?
[03-23:31] 316,Sebastian Rayne : *A faint hint of arrogance showing in his dark eyes as he would toss the cue roughly on the already beaten table, only to snag the money extended by the recently defeated opponent rather roughly, a quick wink in the direction of the man before he would begin to count the bills, counting aloud under his breath as if he thought the man would cheat him of the money he had just earned - almost able to sense the anger seething forth from the other man as he would do so, but this meant nothing to him, as what was life without a little danger? Seeming rather satisfied with himself once he had finished counting his money for the night, folding the bills across the middle and sliding them into the front pocket of his worn jeans, there being only a simple black t-shirt covering his upper body - not even speaking a word as he would reach out to again to the pool cue, starting towards the crowd which would part fluidly for him as he made his way to another table, no doubt looking for another game - his eyes instantly coming to rest upon the girl leaning against the table as the crowd would part, a faint smile curled at the corner of his lips.*
[03-23:32] f4c, *Jonathon Brice : He pauses for a moment, as if thinking about it, before nodding. ''Just go to the nearest elevator.'' And with that, he disappears from view. She will get clearence by the elevator man.

[03-23:57] 7f8, ºMarley Watkins : *with out a word of thanks, or any other word at all, she turns down the hallway and into the bathroom. The shower can be heard, but only for about 5 minutes, then the faucet when she brushes her teeth, then she reappears in simple well fitting jeans and a studded, also fitting sleeveless black shirt with an Andy Warhol style portrait of Elvis printed onto it. She comes back into the more main part and drops the bag near the door* I'm not very good company when I smell so terrible.

[04-00:03] 316,Sebastian Rayne : *And as she would have left the table he would have turned his gaze upon another of the players with only a hint of curiosity visible in his chocolate brown eyes, having just became interested in another game as she would wander into him - his eyes turning to her abruptly as she would make her quick apology.* Should watch where you going. *Quietly chastising her under his breath, though his words would seem only halfhearted as he spoke them.*

[04-00:11] 7f8, ºNico Blue: *either hadn't heard the tip, or didn't pay any attention to it. Though, she is more over all observant as she weaves through the bodies with the pitcher. Three of the members of the little crew gather their things upon her arrival, which leaves her with two others to polish off the game and the beer. It's also her turn when she gets back. She reclaims her stick and with a reminder that she is stripes... not solids, she steadies the stick behind her back and leans back, tilting her head to get the angle right, she shoots this time making the shot and sinking the last two of her balls, one after the other with the one shot*

Just her usual, flat... detatched kind of tone*

[04-01:24] 50e, *Jaylin Anderson : That’s to bad *nods smiling to Damali* I’m Jaylin *tries not to look at the bag with the broken bottles, it was a shame, but at least she got paid back for it*
[04-01:28] 7f8, *Kailynn Benson : *seems cursed to do the right thing, it would seem* Do... you two know each other? *looks at completely at Damali when she speaks*
[04-01:29] 221, *Damali Aloula: No. *looks to Kailynn* I'd recognise him if I'd seem him at the club.
[04-01:30] 50e, *Jaylin Anderson : *raises an eyebrow, he’s never seen her before in his life, but the questions obviously isn’t actually directed at him, so he doesn’t answer, but the comment about the club is a little confusing* Club?
[04-01:32] 7f8, *Kailynn Benson : There are several in the city... this is LA *quick, effortless cover up.*
[04-01:33] 50e, *Jaylin Anderson : Right…*takes that as a cue not to ask about it again, he doesn’t get it, but it doesn’t really matter if she doesn’t want to talk about it, it’s not like he really needs to know*
[04-01:35] 221, *Damali Aloula: *glances between Kailynn, who she only knows vaugely from the Burning Bush, and this strange guy that Kailynn is obviously on the defensive with* So... whats your name?
[04-01:37] 7f8, *Kailynn Benson : Damali's brother owns a hotel, too, I guess *calling on conversation skills that she'd abandoned years ago. It does no good to act overly suspicious. And she tends to be defensive with almost everyone... let's be honest*
[04-01:40] 221, *Damali Aloula: ((*changes "whats your name" to "where are you from" as Jay allready introduced himself*))
[04-01:40] 50e, *Jaylin Anderson : I would be Jaylin. *doesn’t offer anymore then that, she hadn’t asked for more, and there really isn’t a need for more. And he’s not really in the mood tonight for offering up more information when not being asked about it* A hotel? Sounds like a business man then, is it a family business?
[04-01:40] 221, *Damali Aloula: A motel, yeah.
[04-01:41] 50e, *Jaylin Anderson : ((Crap, hit undo instead of refresh))
[04-01:41] 221, *Damali Aloula: Its not realy a family business. He owns it and my sister and I don't do anything for it. So its realy just his...
[04-01:43] 7f8, *Kailynn Benson : (don't worry about it. We've got it)
[04-01:44] 50e, *Jaylin Anderson : Ah, well then what do you do for a living, or does he just take care of things? *it doesn’t occur to him that the question is rude, even after it’s out of his mouth. Just seems like the logical thing to ask*
[04-01:44] 7f8, *Kailynn Benson : *great. It's working. If they talk to each other, they can't talk to her*
[04-01:47] 221, *Damali Aloula: *realizes she's being tugged into the oral equivilant of a human sheild position for Kailynn* I work with her. *indicates Kai. Oh, but she can get as tricky as Jihan when she sets her mind to it*
[04-01:48] 50e, *Jaylin Anderson : Okay…so…I don’t know what that is *just shrugs, glancing at Kailynn. He’s not sure at all what she does, or where these two would work together, could be just about anywhere for all he knows*
[04-01:52] 7f8, *Kailynn Benson : We're strippers. Anything else you want to know? *still not raising her tone. She says it casually.... mostly, just sick of lying every time she's turned around lately.*
[04-01:59] 50e, *Jaylin Anderson : Not particularly *just shrugs, not seem to react at all to the fact their strippers, besides, why would he care? Everyone had to make a living, that was just how they did it. He knew more than likely they both made more money that he ever had, it doesn’t seem to him to be a bad job to have if it was something you were willing to do. He really didn’t understand the human obsession with making things like that seem dirty or wrong. It was just a way to take advantage of a few biological facts, mostly that men were horny a lot, and make a good amount of money doing it*
[04-02:01] 221, *Damali Aloula: *finds the subtext of the talk between Kailynn and the man to be of who holds the moral high ground. As she doesnt' feel the need to fight about it, and wouldn't likely win, she goes back to picking up the bits of glass and pulling them into the bag*
[04-02:04] 7f8, *Kailynn Benson : I have to go work off the cheese sticks I ate earlier. I'll catch see you around, no doubt*doesn't make a distinction. She's talking to the both of them*
[04-02:07] 221, *Damali Aloula: Later Kailynn.
[04-02:07] 50e, *Jaylin Anderson : Okay then, I have to get…back, anyway *stopped just short of saying home, but that was something he was currently lacking*
[04-02:09] 7f8, *Kailynn Benson : *slips between the two of them and continues on her jog*
[04-02:10] 221, *Damali Aloula: *for the most part ignores Jaylin, just vaguely nods. For a fun thing to notices, the alchahol that should be strewn all over the side walk is... not there. How very strange. Damali stands up with the bag and begins to walk off*
[04-02:12] 50e, *Jaylin Anderson : *shakes his head as he turns and walks off the way he had already been going. He would think this all very strange, except for him it would have to get a lot worse before it fell into his definition of truly strange*

[04-22:34] 595, *Squirrel: It's not porn exactly...all the parts are covered, just..shows a lot of skin..
[04-22:35] 8b7, ºEnvy: what kind of skin?
[04-22:36] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *His mask set aside, he breathes shallow. The air feels thicker than it should, and his stomach aches in violent protest to his standoff with the police. Maybe the gunshot wound was a bit more serious than he had wanted to think. His head is sore and pained, most likely due to massive loss of blood*
[04-22:40] 595, *Katya Yudin : ((Legs, thighs, buttox)) *Still riding as hard as she can, making a new speedlimit for herself to get to the scene...figuring that Nikolai already had the most police attention at the moment and that there wasn't a good chance that she would be pulled over by some highway jockey. All the while thoughts racing through her mind like the wildfires that plagued the state* Come on..Come on...*Keeps pushing the bike further and further, weaving without abandon*
[04-22:40] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *He staggers from the sofa after a slow, energiless waking. The digitcal clock on the shelf nearby tells him he had been asleep for no more than 45 minutes. Outside, he could still hear the police and news cameras moving about behind barricades and lined vehicles. Making it into the bathroom, he peers into the mirror and cleans himself off, surprised by how pale his face looked*
[04-22:41] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : digital* (ugh...i need an aspirin)
[04-22:45] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Cuts off some Lexus on the exit ramp, making him slide into the concrete barrier along the side and trade some paint, but she doesn't care. All she cares is getting to the Depot...maybe she should get to her gun stash first..help him out...hmm idea, but scout out the situatio n first, try and find a hole in the blockade, try and see if he was okay.*
[04-22:45] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : (Back) *For a moment, he considers just giving up. At least he would receive medical attention, though the police may conveniently delay his treatment as they did years before in the North Hollywood shootout. And then, the gunman hadn't even killed anyone. He was positive he had at least killed three unfortunate souls*
[04-22:48] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *He leans his head against the wall, eyes closed in troubled contemplation. With a frustrated exhale, he slams his brow into the plaster, creating a sufficient dent. As if jostled free by the force, the seed of an idea begins to plant itself. The basement was on a lower level than the street, adjacent to it and sharing a common side to the south. Instantly, he rushes across to his sleeping quarters and yanks the bed from the wall*
[04-22:52] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Skids to a stop as the barricade rushes up on her* ..My god..Nikolai...*Dozens of police cars, sirens lighting up the streets and buildings around the Depot..well..now it's a bit of a warzone with all of the damage he's done.* What have you gotten yourself into...*Shakes her head, watching all the police bustle about, bulletproof vests being donned, guns being checked...looked like a small army had assembled themselves outside...* Got to get to him..got to see him..*Looks towards the upper floors of the building, trying to sopt some movement of any kind*
[04-22:55] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *The police had had enough. A second armed swat-team with bullet-shields, body armor, and M16's, are assembled and ready for a final push into the Depot. Not even with his traps and weapons, could Nikolai ever hope to repel them. They were sick of him, and were clearly going to go for the head shot. Meanwhile, down below in the Depot's basement, Nikolai is hammering away at the drywall of his bedroom until he comes to a concrete slab. With any luck, it was seperating the basement from the sewers beneath the street outside. He would never hack through it with the fire-axe in his hands, but...*
[04-22:55] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : ((If I take a while to post, it's because I'm writing e-mail simultaneously))
[04-23:00] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Thinks back to her conversations with him, when she was decorating...maybe he let a few secrets out..of course! His bedroom wasn't up there..it was down below, in the basement...and if she wasn't mistaken..that was a shadow moving in the window..only a small part of it moving, but yes, it was definetly something that was down there. Now..was there anythings else..* Dammit, Katya! Think think..*Glances around again, pondering*

[04-23:00] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *He makes his way across his living quarters and out into the wall, carefully crouching past the tunnel which leads up into the bar before entering his workshop. Scrounging through boxes of ammunition and firearms, he comes to the desired piece of equipment - A demo pack. Basically, it is a small brick of C4 wrapped in a black canvas cover with an electronic fuse. Rushing into his quarters, he adheres the explosive to the concrete slab and grabs the detonator, rushing off to take cover*
[04-23:01] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : wall = hall*
[04-23:03] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *Tipping his lacquered mahogany coffee table up onto one side, he squeezes the trigger down and presses his thumb over the red switch. Outside in the streets, police take for cover as the explosion is heard, tearing through stone and architecture. A tremor sends a few spindly cracks out into the street, rocking vehicles on their tires*
[04-23:05] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Gulps slightly, straddling the bike again and heading around the building, looking around, thinking..no..no he was very good about his secrets and...* Ahh! *Slips the bike onto it's side as the block detonates...* What in the...
[04-23:08] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *Coughing painfully, his face smeared with grime, sweat, and black soot, he stands from the rubble. A fireblast had cooked his clothes sufficiently and melted a good bit of his gas mask, which he discards and tosses to one side. He had been three rooms away and nearly fifteen yards, and yet still, the blast had reached him. He didn't think he was hurt, but he didn't have time to check. Rushing through his now-ruined apartment, he enters the blackened shell of what used to be his bedroom. A gaping hole in the wall amidst scorchmarks and a few flaming sections of rubble is present, through which he squeezes himself. A few feet later, he is plunged in darkness*
[04-23:10] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *Falling a few feet, he lands painfully on a concrete walkway beside a river of sewage. Shafts of red and blue alternating light flicker down through manhole covers several yards away. He was directly beneath the police. There wouldn't be much time before they discovered what had happened, so he takes off at a slow, cautious jog with nothing but his flashlight and a small CZ-G2k Czech made pistol*
[04-23:14] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Grumbles, dragging her bike up and ignoring the stinging in her leg, resuming her pacing back and fourth with the bike, stopping over a sewer grate and revving her engine in anger, revving it loud enough for the officers to finally take notice of her and push her back...suspicious activity, dammit! Scowls at the police that lead her away to a "safe" distance and watches on, pondering her options now, what could she do?*
[04-23:14] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *The stench is amazing. A fetid mixture of human excrement and decay that nearly chokes him as he runs. Turning a corner, he is faced with a criss-crossed series of wide tunnels. Trying to remember which way leads to the Wharf, he consults his compass, finding it shattered from the blast* Ini da huj! *He whispers loudly to himself in discontent. Forging on for two more blocks, he ascends a ladder and carefully pushes a manhole cover out of place*
[04-23:17] JOIN: Richard Gatts has entered.
[04-23:17] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *Seeing no civillians at present, and even more importantly, no police, he climbs out and rolls onto his back. Taking only a moment to rest, he is soon on his feet and headed south. The buzz of a motorcycle isn't far off, and the 'Whup-Whup-Whup' of a helicopter can be heard from above, most likely observing what remains of the Depot. All because of some anonymous tip, his entire livelihood was ruined. His money was safe, but his life wasn't. It angered and frustrated him to no end. Just when he was beginning to truly enjoy this country, some stool-bird comes along and robs him of it all*
[04-23:19] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Well..not much she could do now..except getting her guns and going all out on the police..which she didn't want to do now...life was getting good for her. With a heavy sigh she sets off, slowly, muttering to herself and to the police behind her, turning onto a street and looking at the spectators as they come out in their bathrobes...god..what a night..*
[04-23:19] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *The gunshot wound to his belly sears as if on fire, yanking him out of his thoughts and back to a painful reality. All the vodka and drugs in the world wouldn't be able to numb this*
[04-23:26] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Comes to a stop and rests her head on the front of the bike, banging her fists on the side and front, cursing loudly..Russian, English, some times a mix...some made up words thrown in there...everything that she could think of*
[04-23:30] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *He rounds the corner and spots an approaching car. Shoving the gun at the driver, he shouts in garbled English* Get out of the vehicle! *He halts in his tracks as something catches his attention. Katya, she was unmistakable, even from this distance. The motorcycle was hers* Katya!! *He shouts to her at exactly the same time the first of the Swat Team's members discovers the hole leading into the sewers*
[04-23:32] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Blinks, looking up and around* Huh? Wha? *No mistaking that voice..had to be him..glee!* Nik..*stops, realizing that some people may catch the shouting and alert the police..so..starts up her bike again and takes off in the direction of the voice, looking about for him*
[04-23:34] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *He waves off the driver he had attempted to Carjack and hops onto the back of Katya's motorcycle before it even stops. Tucking one arm around her waist, he kisses the hind of her neck* I am so happy to see you. *He states, elation in his voice. He probably smells worse than he looks, which either way, is extremely bad* Go, go krasavchik, go. *He can hear the helicopter banking, and from over the rooftops, he can see it's spotlight searching. With any luck, they wouldn't be noticed*
[04-23:38] 595, *Katya Yudin : *She's just as happy to see him, never mind the smell or look, just to see him! Alive! Free! She needs no other sign to get her to go and she speeds off, looking for the helicopter that was searching and that could destroy this moment. And not to mention that certain jolt of electricity she gets when he kisses her neck..ahh..makes her go faster, again pushing the bike to get away as soon as possible*
[04-23:42] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *The helicopter swings into view, giving chase at a low Altitude. Nikolai immediately bends over backwards on the seat, firing from an upside-down position on the bike with the CZ-G2k in both hands. He empties a full clip into the hapless police helicopter's cockpit, slaying both pilot and co-pilot. The aerial beast falls to earth in a rolling crash, rotary blades slicing into the concrete and shattering. A shard of metal sails at invisible speed, missing Nikolai's head by a few scant inches. Without their eye in the sky, the police would stand a very slim chance of finding them*
[04-23:43] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *Rights himself and tucks an arm around Katya's abdomen again*
[04-23:46] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Coruches down as he begins firing and doesn't stop until the pieces of metal go flying about, having to swerve to avoid popping her tires on the extremly sharp metal blades, grinning for ear to ear as it's over and he resumes his postion with his arm around her, which she takes a good look at before again, speeding onto the freeway and again ducking and weaving through the cars*
[04-23:46] 595, *Katya Yudin : *crouches
[04-23:48] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : *The slide of the pistol is locked back, and he simply tosses it away after dislodging the clip. It clatters on the street as Katya speeds him off. He can't help but be impressed with the way she handles the bike at near suicidal speeds* I need a doctor, I have been hurt. And a place to lay low as well. My bar, my bar, Katya...they took my bar from me.
[04-23:51] 595, *Katya Yudin : You've been hit? Where? *Looks back at him for a second, concern on her face as she yells over the wind and traffic, turning back just in time to avoid a slow moving (or at least slow compared to them) sports car.* And..I'm sorry...it's tough to lose something so dear, but...there's no way you're getting it back.
[04-23:53] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : *is currently at his new job of busboy. He’d used the money he had left to pay off the hotel for a few more days until he could find a better place, and gone out today and gotten this job. Not exactly the most glamorous job or what he was looking for, but it would pay the bills. And it was a pretty nice restaurant, so tips usually were good, even though he had to split them all with the waiters, if they even ‘remembered’ to tell him about them. At least the first shift was almost over, and things weren’t going horribly, though they weren’t going great either as he starts to clean off one of the recently vacated tables*
[04-23:55] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : I will deal with my loss later. I am hit in the stomach, but I don't think it's mortal. *Sheds his body armor and shirt, revealing the self-administered bandages wrapped haphazardly around his belly. He cleans the blood from his skin, wanting to appear more like John Q. Biker and not Nikolai Drakov*
[04-23:59] 595, *Katya Yudin : We can't risk a hospital...got any friends you could call? *Looks back again to see him reveal his wound..damnit! Stomach wound. Quick assessment tells her no, it's not mortal, he'll survive alright.* We're heading to my place, you can lay low there for however long you want...and don't worry about Damali, she's working tonight and then being dragged back to her place afterwards.
[05-00:00] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : *is being led out by an older gentlemen. She hadn't supposed to be out yet, but Cecile called... $700 just to be some arm candy. How hazardous could that be? She spots him... or she thinks it's that strange guy at least as she's about out the door. However, she has to wait until she's outside. When the gentleman says that he can give her a ride, she says that she'd rather walk... which is true. She doesn't like them to know where she lives. When he nods and departs, she turns and heads back inside. In a nice black dress, pearls, and her hair done up, she looks almost like a different woman. She even carries herself better, not slouched over and unwilling to be noticed. She comes sort of from off to the side and behind, tilting her head to try and see his face when she taps on his shoulder*
[05-00:01] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : I know a private doctor, but I'm not sure I can trust anyone. Someone informed the police of my basement dealings...it could be someone who wants to cut the Russian Mafia off from their weaponry. Then again, it could be someone who just does not like me. *Wincing, his face buring into her shoulder as he speaks*
[05-00:06] 595, *Katya Yudin : Fine then...I can take care of it...*Continues the ride, cutting off a few more cars as they hit her exit, riding along the edge of the off-ramp* I've had an expierience or two with this sort of thing so..I can handle it..
[05-00:07] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : *swears silently to himself before plastering on a smile to turn to whoever tapped him on the shoulder, probably some complaint that doesn’t even have anything to do with him* Yes, how can I….*just trails off when he sees who it is. There are probably 10 people in the whole city who actually know him well enough to remember his name, and he happens to run into one here. Figures*
[05-00:07] fd5, *Nikolai Drakov : I trust you, Katya. *He whispers quietly into her ear at point-blank range* ((NPC meh, gotta run off the comp for a bit :( ))
[05-00:13] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : Hi *is a tad surprised to see him as well, but she smiles, small but sincere* I thought that it was you... *what kind of thing is that to say? bah. She's no good at this stuff anymore* I just thought I'd say hello. You seem to be doing well.
[05-00:14] 595, *Katya Yudin : ((k, you're in good hands)) *Nods slightly, pulling off and taking afew short cuts into the apartment building's lot, going into a secluded and dark area not covered by the lights. Despite her sped and recklass abandon she manages a soft stop. Katya parks the bike and hops off, helping Nikolai off as well and asissting him with the somewhat considerable walk to the aprtment, making sure to stay in the shadows as much as possible. With one free hand, she unlocks the door and urges him inside, slipping in once he is and locking the door tight..sighing with relief, slumping against the door for support and wiping her brow off..* God..that was exciting, dangerous, suicidal, stupid, and fun all at the same time, Nikolai...*Grins a little from the door up at him* I like hanging out with you...*Giggles lightly, throwing off her coat into a corner*
[05-00:17] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : Well at least I can pay for my own hotel room now instead of living on the street *didn’t mean for that to come out sarcastically, but somehow it did, he turns back and finishes getting everything off the table* Well Hi, looks like you’re here for something important being all dressed up and everything, don’t let me keep you from it.
[05-00:21] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : The something important is over *just brushes off the sarcasm. Afterall, she'd reacted something like this when Dunstan found her at work* The hotel is actually pretty cheap on the lower levels. You should be alright.
[05-00:25] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : I know, today was my last prepaid day, hence the job *picks up the tub thing with all of the dishes and glasses in it after wiping off the table* Paid through till I get my first paycheck with the money I got from pawing my stuff last night
[05-00:30] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : It was lucky that you found a job so quickly, even if it's a shitty one. *smirks a little, not quite sure why she has the sudden urge to tease him*
[05-00:32] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : *make a kind of hurt face for a moment before he adopts a more neutral one on purpose before he turns and starts walking back towards the kitchen* Pays the bills and buys the booze, that’s all that matters.
[05-00:35] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : *follows him for a little bit, then stops... maybe he doesn't want to be followed* Hey... do you have a break soon?
[05-00:37] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : *stops, turning around a little confused. He balances the tub on one leg so he can glance at his watch* I get off shift in ten minutes *uses the other hand to steady the tub right before dropping it*
[05-00:40] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : There's a cafe a little ways down, next to a shoe store. Meet me there in 12 *turns and through the resturaunt and out the door, heading for the cafe without waiting for him to respond*
[05-00:47] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : *stands there for a moment, blinks, then turns around and walks back into the kitchen. He mostly waits around, hiding from the boss giving orders until his ten minutes are up, clocks out, and heads out the back, putting on his jacket, his old workman’s one from when he was an electrician with the name sewn on it and walks down the street, finding the café pretty easily*
[05-00:48] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : *sits in a booth. Due to the hour, there aren't many people left in there still. Not many people meaning herself and the kid working. She has a cup in front of her and her head is turned to look out the window*
[05-00:51] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : *walks in and as Kailynn is the only one in the place he just walks straight over to her booth and sits down, but doesn’t say anything…as he’s not sure what to say. He’s not quite sure why he’s here*
[05-00:54] JOIN: Katya Yudin has entered.
[05-00:55] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : *turns her head slowly as he sits. She waits a moment, figuring out what she should say* If you sober up, one of the bartenders at the club I work at just quit. My boss won't put you behind the bar, though if you're a drunk.
[05-00:58] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : I can’t really function if I’m not drunk. You saw the only time I’ve been sober in the last…ten years or so. Not that offer isn’t great…but I just can’t…sober up *said more as a fact, because in his mind it is a fact. He just can’t do it, he has to think about his life, and when he has to think about his life, he becomes a wreck* I don’t think it would be in anyone’s best interests if I tried that again.
[05-00:59] 595, *Katya Yudin : *She moves more into her apartment, sparsley furnished, but still adequate. Nikolai sits on the couch while Katya moves through her apartment and grabs some medical supplies, gauze, tweezers..a semi large pair, and needle and thred. She has Nikolai peel away the bandaging from his wound and inspects it first. Definetly non-lethal, but still, he can't sit around with that bullet inside of him. First, cleans the wound with some good ole hydrogen peroxide and then spreads it with her fingers before looking up to him and telling Nikolai to hold onto something and prepare for pain...which he does and she starts poking around inside the wound..searching for the bullet*
[05-01:00] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : *shrugs lightly, figuring he'd say something like that* Thought I'd offer. So... you, um... like being a drunk busboy?
[05-01:04] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : No, not particularly the busboy part, but what else am I going to do. I don’t particularly want to live in a box on the street, and most people don’t care if the busboy is drunk, no one notices him*has folded his hands on top of the table, tensing a little*
[05-01:09] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : *lifts her cup and sips from it, then sets it back down on the saucer* I drink too much. I didn't realize that I even did, until I had to stop. *confessing to strangers? What are those drugs doing to her?* The minibar in the Sundance makes the room more expensive. If you get one without and smuggle your own liquor in, you'll save a lot of money.
[05-01:12] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : Well, my drinking is the solution to a problem, not the problem itself *almost cringes at how bad that sounds, but if she knew his life, she’d understand. Not that she’d ever believe him about his life* And I already figured that out *opens his coat to reveal that there is a brown back from a liquor store stored inside an inside pocket before quickly closing the coat again* I’m not new, was just a little off for a couple days
[05-01:16] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : I don't really care either way. I don't even know you. I just brought you here to tell you about the opening. It pays well and the tips are incredible... even for the men 'tenders. But, I guess if all you have to pay for is the room, then you're set.
[05-01:20] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : It’s sounding like a bit of judgment is thrown in there somewhere *wasn’t actually going to say it, but for some reason he feels the need to defend himself, even though he doesn’t think he’s done anything wrong, and it didn’t sound like she cared that much. He closes his eyes and shakes his head, opening his eyes again* Sorry. Thank you for letting me know about…I might think about it…but I’m not going to bet on even being able to stay sober if I tried.
[05-01:25] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : It probably did sound judgemental. I get that when someone turns down a good opportunity for a stupid reason *because of her tone, her words don't sound all that bitchy.* But, you could very well be the most undeserving and untrustworthy person in the city, so maybe it's all for the best.

[05-01:28] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : Ouch *said in an actually honest tone* I wouldn’t say untrustworthy at least. But the fact is still that I cannon function while I am sober. It has never worked for me. Do you remember when you found me on the street? That’s what happens *he just feels like he needs to make her understand so she doesn’t think it’s just some bullshit line. In his mind it isn’t, it’s completely true, and he has proof*

I could always try lying and saying it doesn’t matter or ‘Yeah, I’ll try that’ or something, but I’ve never had any lying skills *sits back with a bit of a sigh, reaching into his jacket for the bottle*

[05-01:43] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : Eh. Not much point in putting that much effort into it. *picks up her purse* Good luck with... whatever you're after *slides out of the booth* I'll probably see you around. I go to the resturant a lot *and the hotel... but that's a whole different story*
[05-01:47] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : *stares at the table, pretty sure he’s utterly failed at getting his point across to her at all…and he actually feels bad about it, and lets the bottle go without pulling it out of his jacket.* Yeah…what was the club you worked anyway that was offering that job? *just pretends that isn’t transparent*
[05-01:49] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : *just smiles a little* I'm not offended. It makes no difference to me at all what you do, but... it's the Burning Bush. Don't try dropping my name to get the job, if you do go in. It won't do you any good.
[05-01:52] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : *looks up, feigning an offended look*I wouldn’t assume that. I’ll just try to get by on my own. Hopefully I won’t get shot down because of looks alone *shrugs a little*
[05-01:54] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : N... no, I mean a lot of people that I work with don't really like me, so it wouldn't do you any good. *her smile widens just slightly* You need to lighten up. Not everything is a personal attack. I'll see you around
[05-01:58] b6b, *Jaylin Anderson : I’ll try that *manages a smile* Yeah, probably will see you around, hopefully not while I’m cleaning tables next time
[05-02:00] bc3, *Kailynn Benson : *shrugs again* Hey, this is the best I've seen you so far. *and then she walks out and is gone*

[06-15:57] 99f, *Jayde: and he always wants the computer when he first gets home, or more accuratly the internet connection
[06-16:00] a39, *Harmonia: that's fine. You want to start?
[06-16:02] 99f, *Jayde: Uh, sure
[06-16:09] 99f, *Jaylin Anderson : *is looking very confused at the moment. He’d gone to the Burning Bush about the bartending job, just to say he tried, and to his surprise he’d gotten it. Of course, as always the condition is he has to be sober while on shift, which is what’s troubling him. He hadn’t expected to actually get hired, but he was, which would mean he’d have to at least go one shift sober before they fired him again, which he’s pretty sure is what will happen once they see him sober. He hadn’t really noticed where he was walking to until he looks up and sees the Before the Dawn Bar. He just sighs silently to himself, might as well stop in while he’s in the area*
[06-16:11] a39, *Harmonia: *she'll be cleaning the the bartop, just playing a mixed cd like Jaylin had suggested, right now linkin park plays on it*

[06-16:14] a39, *Harmonia: *she'll stop cleaning the bartop and smile at Jaylin, tossing the rag below the bar* Hey. How are ya doing?
[06-16:15] 99f, *Jaylin Anderson : Well…I’m not sure actually. *doesn’t really smile or frown, but it was the truth. He wasn’t sure if things were going well or badly right now. He’d yet to really figure it out*
[06-16:16] a39, *Harmonia: *perks a brow* Not sure how you feel? Well that's a new one. How goes looking for a job?
[06-16:18] 99f, *Jaylin Anderson : That’s the thing…I got one…a good one I think…but that sober thing is going to be an issue again.
[06-16:18] a39, *Harmonia: *Smiles at him* Well that's a good thing that you got a job. I know you'll be able to do the job sober. I know you will.
[06-16:20] 99f, *Jaylin Anderson : Yeah…I’m not so sure. I might be able to do the basics…actually pretty easily…but it’s the interacting with other people I don’t think will go so well, and I’m pretty sure snapping or yelling at the people who come in isn’t encouraged.
[06-16:22] a39, *Harmonia: They usually frown upon that. Want the usual or no?
[06-16:25] 99f, *Jaylin Anderson : I…no. *seems surprised with himself at the words, but he was going to have to work later* I probably shouldn’t have anything else before my first shift…I’m not completely sure how long it’ll take to really get sober.
[06-16:28] a39, *Harmonia: *she nods and is surprised slightly too* That's a good idea. So where are you working now
[06-16:30] 99f, *Jaylin Anderson : You ever heard of the Burning Bush? It’s a strip club, one of their bartenders quit a few days ago, someone told me about it so I went in. Didn’t actually think I’d get the job, but it turns out I know a lot about bartending. Go figure *grins a bit at the end of what he says*
[06-16:34] a39, *Harmonia: *laughs a little and nods* Who would have thought you knew a lot about bartending? *being sarcastic of course*
[06-16:36] 99f, *Jaylin Anderson : Yeah, at least I’ll be busy with that and won’t have to be worry about being…distracted by some of the others things going on in there. I’ve never been in during official business hours, but I’ve heard about the place before.
[06-16:36] a39, *Harmonia: *nods* Going to be interesting for you I can tell you that much
[06-16:38] 99f, *Jaylin Anderson : If I even last through the first day. Not quite sure they won’t fire me after the first couple of hours.
[06-16:40] a39, *Harmonia: I'm sure you'll keep the job
[06-16:41] 99f, *Jaylin Anderson : Well, I guess we’ll see *shrugs* Do you have like any…normal drinks around, or non-alcoholic I guess I mean.
[06-16:43] a39, *Harmonia: *thinks for a moment and nods* I got orange juice, milk, water, coffee
[06-16:47] 99f, *Jaylin Anderson : Water, could I get some water? I know I don’t drink enough of it, it’ll probably be smart to get into the habit of having at least a couple glasses everyday.
[06-16:48] a39, *Harmonia: *nods and grabs a bottle of water, handing it to Jaylin* Probably would be wise

[07-00:13] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : Your not intruding *said simply and honestly* I just don’t get many guests, as you probably know…well, not one’s that aren’t out to get me anyway.
[07-00:17] 230, *Kailynn Benson : Good *sits with the glass of water on the nearest chair, or whatever is there* It just seemed like you were everywhere I turned, then you just kind of disappeared.
[07-00:20] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : I’ve…gone back to work. It takes up a lot of time *walks over and sits on the couch facing her* I didn’t even realize it had been that long till you got here I’ve been so busy…I have a difficult assignment this time around.
[07-00:23] MSG: Kailynn Benson sent a message to Clarissa Green.
[07-00:26] MSG: Kailynn Benson sent a message to Clarissa Green.
[07-00:27] 230, *Kailynn Benson : You don't need to do that. Only married people explain things to each other *takes a sip of the water, knowing better than to ask any questions* I had just wanted to make sure you were alright
[07-00:28] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : *looks a little embarrassed, but just does his best to shrug it off* Yeah…I’m alright, just busy.
[07-00:31] 230, *Kailynn Benson : Is there anything I can help with? Dishes or something? I guess it's the least I can do. *smiles a little, hoping to calm him down*
[07-00:36] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : No….there aren’t any dishes or anything anyway….only problems I have are job related *manages to smiles a little* I don’t think you can…or would want to help with that.
[07-00:39] 230, *Kailynn Benson : *shrugs, leaning back* I have four more weeks of free nights. I've cleaned my apartment top and bottom three times, spent a small fortune on film and developing, done my laundry 4 times, and volunteered at the hospital to read to sick kids.... you'd be surprised what I'd do with so much time on my hands *smiles again*
[07-00:48] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : *laughs a bit then reaches over and pulls a picture out of the box, it’s kinda old, at least six years or more, it’s not perfect, but it’s clear enough, and holds it out for her to look at* The only way you could help me is if you knew who this guy was or where I could find him. From the info I got he’s a bit of a drunk, I thought it would be a lot easier to find him than it has been, but it doesn’t seem like he holds a job or an apartment for very long.
[07-00:51] 230, *Kailynn Benson : *sets down the water on the coffee table and takes the picture. Her smile fades slowly. It's not like the guy has usual features. She should have known that this guy was dangerous. Why else would Dunstan kill him... right? Yet, he hadn't seemed all that dangerous. He tried to hurt her at least. Due to all of this thinking, she doesn't say anything*
[07-00:53] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : *frowns at the fact that she doesn’t say anything, thinking maybe she does know the guy. The fact that she might actually know him hadn’t crossed his mind, but if she does at least that cuts down another weeks worth of work tracking him down* Familiar?
[07-00:55] 230, *Kailynn Benson : Um... *before she answers his question, she has some of his own* What did he do?
[07-01:01] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : *shrugs* Made the wrong kind of enemies. I didn’t ask specifics, just told him I don’t do the whole killing for someone’s revenge thing, the guy who gave me the job has given me a couple before, and they were always good….usually…slightly unusual, but good. *doesn’t want to say ‘usually not human’ and unusual seems the only other option. This particular client usually sent him after non-humans that had reportedly been harassing or hurting humans for no reason*
[07-01:06] 230, *Kailynn Benson : So, you don't even know why you're supposed to kill him? Doesn't that seem... a little wrong to you? *still looking at the picture, as if she had to be sure.*
[07-01:09] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : Not especially, I’m not emotionally involved in any of this, it’s someone else’s dispute. I’m just paid to end it when they can’t themselves. Like there really is any one reason that is better than another to kill someone for money? Even if I didn’t kill him, they’d find someone else to do it
[07-01:11] 230, *Kailynn Benson : *hands the picture back to him, trying to just brush it off. Who is she to judge about someone not being emotionally involved in her work?* Sorry.
[07-01:15] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : So that’s a no…seemed like you were thinking a little hard about it *he had really hoped she’d know him, it was taking a long time to track him down and some kind of lead would have been nice* Well, see, I was right. Just work problems, nothing you’d be able to help me with…I’ll just have to work through this on my own.
[07-01:20] 230, *Kailynn Benson : *shrugs, acting just a little too nonchalant to actually be so. And she thought that she'd gotten so good at pretending* It's a big city, you know. I wanted to be sure, but... everyone kind of looks the same.
[07-01:22] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : Not really….*he’s not so sure she’s telling the truth…she’s acting odd, for what he knows of her anyway* Are you sure you don’t know him?
[07-01:26] 230, *Kailynn Benson : *nods, picking up her water again, avoiding eye contact. She has plenty of things to be acting this way about, so she's not all that worried about it*
[07-01:28] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : Alright then…I have a lot of work ahead of me then. *glances at the box* Almost wish I’d turned this one down.
[07-01:30] 230, *Kailynn Benson : Maybe you should *closes her eyes, but then quickly opsn them. Wrong thing to say, moron...* I mean... *fuck. there is no way to fix that* I meant why?
[07-01:33] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : I just meant I’m not sure taking a job this complicated after being hurt might have been right…but it’s too late to drop it now. And I don’t think that’s what you meant…*trails off, looking at her with a bit of a frown. He doesn't like that she seems to know something about this, and is hiding it.*
[07-01:38] 230, *Kailynn Benson : Of course, it's what I meant. *looks a little less guilty, wondering why she hadn't thought of that. Her irritation at herself works well for her reaction, making it at least slightly more believable* I didn't want you to get offended.
[07-01:40] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : No…I’m fine *looks back at the box, thinking for a minute before looking back at her* I really need to get back to work…I fell asleep early when I didn’t meant to….lost a few hours.
[07-01:42] 230, *Kailynn Benson : Of course *sets the water back down and stands. Well, what did she expect?* You shouldn't have let me in if you were so busy.
[07-01:44] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : I wasn’t when you first came in….like I said, I was sleeping *he really just doesn’t know what to think. He doesn’t like the idea that he might be killing someone she knows, and if she does know, well enough she doesn’t want him to know where he is* But it’s been a while…I really should get back to it. Sooner this is done the better.
[07-01:47] 230, *Kailynn Benson : *likes he's in the possition to suggest that he not kill him. She doesn't know the guy. He could be some mass murderer or something. She just doesn't know what to do.* I'll see you around then. *with all the intentions in the world of just getting out before he kept looking so uncomfortable, she steps across the room to the door, as quickly as she can while still not trying to look like she's rushing*
[07-01:49] 4c9, *Dunstan Ryder : Yeah, bound to run into each other again, given the odds *pulls the box over to start looking through it, just forcing himself not to look at her. Things were bad enough; he didn’t need to start doubting himself. He’d already agreed to this job, and he intended to finish it*
[07-01:49] 230, *Kailynn Benson : (the first two words should be "like she's')
[07-01:52] 230, *Kailynn Benson : *pauses briefly with her hand on the door knob* I wasn't born to be a whore, you know. That's not that I am. It's just what I've been tossed into doing right now. I'm not a bad person. *and then she's out the door and gone*

[07-19:48] dd3, *Jayde: lol, he's not allowed to drink on duty :-P He's actually going to make an effort, but mostly cause he thinks he'll fail and then people will stop asking him to go sober

[07-20:05] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : *had just finished getting a few drinks on a tray for one of the waitress when he heard the order. He didn’t even turn around until the drink was made, but as soon as he did and set the drink on the bar, he pauses momentarily, recognizing Jihan. He hadn’t known she was here, he hadn’t even realized she worked here too. He’d been making a conscious effort not to look at the stage, he had enough problems already, like the fact that he had a headache, amazingly from *not* drinking, and forcing himself not to snap at customers was taking a great deal more effort than he had expected* Here you go.
[07-20:07] 521, *Jihan Aloula: Thanks... *smirks as she takes a sip* I heard there was a new guy handling drinks. Didn't expect it would be you.
[07-20:11] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : I didn’t really expect it either…I thought I’d be fired by now…but I’m still here. *rubs the bridge of his nose for a moment, trying to will the headache away as another waitress comes over with an order* But, it turns out I’m at least competent at this *talks while he starts to put the drinks together, he’d already memorized where everything was, he’s already moving around like he’s been here for weeks, but that was the gift of being able to memorized with a glance where and what the alcohol was*
[07-20:13] 521, *Jihan Aloula: Out of all the things I'd figure you to be, I didn't expect you to be a serving drinks. Hmm.. *drinks* And here I thought I was joking when I said fate brought me to you again.
[07-20:14] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : I think fate has been playing with me lately *finishes and hands the tray back to the waitress, leaning against the bar when it’s finished* Actually…I think it’s always been playing with me…I’m just starting to notice
[07-20:17] 521, *Jihan Aloula: Well she's a cunt, so I wouldn't doubt it. Speaking of which seeing as how you're going to be around me, call me Saige while we're here.
[07-20:20] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : Alright Saige…I was just gong to not use names for anyone I knew until told otherwise. I doubt anyone of the girls would want the guys in here to know their real names. *shrugs as he stands up straight for a minute*
[07-20:25] 521, *Jihan Aloula: *she shrugs in turn* Some of the girls are naive or stupid.
[07-20:27] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : Well…then I feel sorry for them *shrugs right before another drink order comes in, and he gets to work on it* I don’t think I’ve met any of the stupid ones outside of here though
[07-20:32] 521, *Jihan Aloula: Maybe you should look a little closer. ((hmm... Its getting late. I wanna go get some dinner. You gonna be on in about 40 minutes from now?
[07-20:36] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : *raises an eyebrow as he finishes up the order* I'll keep that in mind... ((I'm not sure))

[07-21:52] 721, *Tevesh: OOh, RP!? Sweet! I gots me an idea! Some fun!
[07-21:57]       Tevesh strolls down the street, his left hand in the pocket of his brown leather overcoat, and his tophat atop his head. He walks with a bounce in his step, not really sure where he's going or why.. But he's sure what he means to do.. In his right hand he holds a black 9mm hand gun, which is cocked and against his right temple. He makes no effort to hide the gun, but it seems nobody has taken the care to notice it. His trigger finger seems to be quite "itchy," gently squeezing and letting the pressure off on it, as if it wasn't sure it wanted to plummet into Final Death. His mind races as he whistles tunelessly.. 'What to do? Do we want to end? To see the light, to look Left finally? Make the plunge and stop the sight! The Cobweb calls me, but the light out here beckons..So many things I haven't seen, so many places I haven't been!' He stops walking completely...
[07-21:58] 721, *Tevesh : (wow.. Longer than I had thought.. ¬_¬)
[07-22:00] dd3, *Jayde: nm, mom called now
[07-22:01] dc2, ºEnvy: see you later, Jayde
[07-22:02] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Enterz da club, yo...well not in that gansta sweet way, but y'know...does anyways, ready and willing for her first night as an official stripper and prostitute of the Burning Bush gentleman's club. Heh heh, some fun! Of course goes in the back way to avoid the large crowd out front, smiling warmly to the bouncer there and tucking a $10 bill into his jacket for him to keep an extra special eye on her bike in the parking lot, thing cost a lot of money to her and she likes it so doesn't want it stolen. She has a small plastic bag along with her, containing a pair of zip-up (along the side) boots, those plastic pasties Damali suggested, and her stage costume for tonight. Regular dress, which she is in now, consists of a pair of black heels, tight cut off shorts, and a cute little black shirt she had found with a bunny silohuete in white on the back. She didn't understand what it meant, but it was cute and something she looked good in so she bought it. Of course heading back to the dressing rooms, her act not to far away.*
[07-22:09]       Tevesh starts to pace back and forth in front of random clubs, tracing the same path back and forth, over and over. He slowly walks to one end of the block, then turns around and goes to the other.. All the while with the gun to his head, talking and muttering.. Seeing and knowing.. His eyes are wild, the look of insanity and hate and love and all emotion made flesh, his very heart and body and mind pushed out through those balls of jelly.. If one were to stare at his peering modules, you would get entranced.. His ever stretching boundaries growing taught and thin, cracking and breaking and freezing.. Unwilling to let go though, the steel is apparent in his mind and soul. His feet make loud thud noises with every step, creeping close to the edge.. Then backing away.. Close to pulling the trigger, and then almost deciding not to.. A battle rages in him.. He starts to walk faster, back and forth, clearly agitated...
[07-22:11] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *comes off the stage, her fair skin glowing with a thin layer of sweat, just enough for the lights to catch and brighten her up. She technically shouldn't be back for a few more days, but she was feeling better and this wasn't all that bad. Her trademark hair is down and curled just a little, making it adorably bouncy, which is the "good girl at a glance" look that she had been going for. She steps down the stairs and into the back room, picking up a clean towel from the stack*
[07-22:16] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Enters into the back room and heads back, looking for her locker or what have you to store her stuff. She nods to Kailynn as she passes her and finally sees her storage space, grinning at the "Katya Yudin" nametag above it, immeadiatly opening it up and pulling off her shirt and then stepping out of her skirt and shoes before opening up the bag*
[07-22:16]       Tevesh stops walking again, and drops the gun from his head.. "No use, no use. We need to see what is out there, what the world knows! We must learn and feel and breathe the air, must be half alive to do so.. Old, we're.. I'm old. I'm insane. No, I can see! I can see!" He throws the gun down onto the ground, a loud clatter being made. Starting to get excited, he speaks with a passion unknown to him.. "I can see! I know! I feel! No stopping this, no. I've been broken and mended, stopped and started.. Death is not wise, nor an option. Blind no more, glass is clear and the time of the reckoning is near!" He grins wildly as his eyes glow with a fire... Pointing at a passing man.. "You do not know! You can't feel! SEE! LOOK AT IT AND BE!" Suddenly he stops, arm trembling.. Tears flow down his face.... What to do, what to do?
[07-22:18] 521, *Jihan Aloula: *and to interupt such a dramatic moment, Jihan steps up behind Tevesh* Stop scaring the fucking customers.
[07-22:21]       Tevesh jumps, and whips around.. "You! I remember you!" He nods vigourously and grins, leaning close to the lady.. Breathing deeply, he watches her.. "Haven't seen you in quite some time.." Leans back on his heels and rocks.. "We know what you are, and we know who you follow..." Taps his head lightly and grins. "I see you, and you can't hide. You make them pulse and pump, you make it bleed. You cut the Veins and I must repair.. You!"
[07-22:24] 521, *Jihan Aloula: *is apparently straight out from the club, as she's wearing both her pasty and her thong. Jihan's eyes are a smoldering copper and she looks generaly displeased* Its bad enough you're a phychotic nutjob, but you're a dangerous one too. What in the HELLS are you doing here?
[07-22:24] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *pats the towel on her face, then tosses it over her chair, along with the bra and other... garments she pulled off on stage* You must be the new girl? *straps on a new bra, a white leather one that has three straps coming up that are attached to a collar*
[07-22:26] 721, *Tevesh : Where? Here? Is this sidewalk not for public use? Why must you question where I go and what message I bring! Keeper of the Vein, death and hate! *Grins, letting her know that he's doing this on purpose. Nodding, he picks up the gun he threw and puts it in his left pocket..* I was needing to see, and see I did! I figured it out..
[07-22:28] 521, *Jihan Aloula: Look... I don't realy care, but if it gets you moving away from here, you can tell me all about it.
[07-22:30] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Nods* Katya, nice to meet you. *Smiles wamrly to her, unclasping her own black bra and putting on two pink pasties before putting on a lacy white bra, obviously a size to small for her, that claps around he back.* Who might you be?
[07-22:30]       Tevesh stares at her.. "Your place of Sin, your place of Lust! Away? This place is the closest to the Vein that I could get! Can't you smell it? It's Madness.." He breathes in deeply to accentuate his words.. "It smells of insanity! Pure, raw energy! I can feel it pulsing through the air!" He starts to pace again, getting near to ranting... "I feel it! I FEEL IT! It is here! The Thing I have been looking for all these years is HERE! I must mend it! It has been broken! The Vein!!!" Starts to get the wild look in his eyes again, his manner changing completely..
[07-22:31] dd3, *Jayde: *returns*
[07-22:32] 721, *Tevesh : ((WB, Jaydey-poo))
[07-22:32] 521, *Jihan Aloula: *bitch slaps him like a mofo* That energy happens to be claimed at the moment. So fuck off and find it elsewhere.
[07-22:35]       Tevesh stops.. And just looks at her.. He raises a hand to his cheek.. Shaking his head, he looks at the woman.. No, not a woman. It's a demon.. Wings, gigantic leathery wings.. The eyes are glowing bright red, the skin covered with a ocher glop that stinks of formeldehyde... Tevesh backs away, whimpering.. He is pushing himself up against a brick wall, hammering head head against it.. Nearing tears and almost screaming from fright... "G... Get away! Go! Back! It has you! The damage is big! Too big for me!" He starts all out bawling right now, but it seems the passerby's do not even glance at him...
[07-22:35] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *peels out of her red thong and pulls on white lace panties with little rinestones, then a very very very short white leather skirt* Kailynn.... Mary Ann around here, though *picks up her tall white, spiked heeled boots* School girl thing. Cecile's idea.
[07-22:37] 521, *Jihan Aloula: *Jihans own eyes are in fact turning from copper to a firey topaz, but she begins to realize they aren't being noticed... in fact she saw him before the bouncers did* What sort of magic are you using?
[07-22:39]       Tevesh stops.. Normal woman again.. No change, no demon.. "Magic? No magic.. I have Cloaked us... Cloaked me.. You're near me, it works for us.. Maybe not for you.. Demon-witch.." He shudders.. Speaks some more.. "They do not see us because their minds will not let them.. Watch their eyes..." Nods.. Starts to rock back and forth...
[07-22:40] 721, *Tevesh : *The pedestrians eyes seem to float past the pair, avoiding their area completely..*
[07-22:40] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : (wb, Jayde!)
[07-22:40] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Giggles a little and trades her white panties for a black thong and then sliding on the zip-up boots* Ahh...well, the look is good. *Looks her up and down, nodding* Cecile was right to have that idea for you, she suggested I go by "Rose" because of my tatoo back here. *Turns around for Kailynn to see the rose tatoo at the small of her back, she can already see the dragon tatoo around her midsection and the sun tatoo, along with barb wire ones on her arms.*
[07-22:41] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : (pic)
[07-22:42] 721, *Tevesh : ((I'm outta here. Pause, please!))
[07-22:42] EXIT: Tevesh has left the chat ( 8:42pm, August 07 (CDT) ).
[07-22:43] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : (tev is gone, btw)
[07-22:43] 521, *Jihan Aloula: ((bah))
[07-22:45] 595, *Katya Yudin : ((Come and join us at the club))
[07-22:46] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *smiles a little, nodding* She's good with things like that *stands when both boots are on, then picks up a pair of white angel wings from her little dressing table* I bet she loved your accent, too
[07-22:46] 521, *Jihan Aloula: ((as Damali?))
[07-22:47] 595, *Katya Yudin : ((Either or))
[07-22:51] 521, *Damali Aloula: *enters into the club, worried as Katya would have come in by herself and Damali feels the need to protect the one person she feels realy compfortable around. She smiles to the bouncer and enters in, opening the door to the dressing room*
[07-22:53] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Bends down to zip up both boot's sides, picking up a white tube top and slipping it on before sliding into a very tight black skirt* Mmhmm..she loved it. Gave me a little intro as the Russian Rose..*giggles at the irony* Knows how to put two and two together that one..*Heads over to a mirror, fixing her hair up*
[07-22:59] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *puts her arms through the bands, then ajusts the wings onto her back* It's her job. I need to get out waitressing. Good luck *with one final look in the mirror, she goes out of the back room and into the main room*
[07-23:02] 521, *Damali Aloula: *smiles to Kailynn as she leaves* Hey, who's the sexy new girl? *of course being meant for Katya's ears*
[07-23:05] 595, *Katya Yudin : Name's Rose, love..*Turns around with a grin on her face* Who's might you be, huh? *Smirks slightly, walking over to her and hugging her tightly*
[07-23:07] 521, *Damali Aloula: Isabel. *flings her arms around Katya* You look so good. You're gonna cause a riot.
[07-23:07] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *comes up the bar and grabs a tray, then goes to her tables. She plasters on her smile as she leans over tables, taking orders. She allows a few hands on her leg, of course. But when they raise too high she steps back with some coy warning, but when her back is turned while walking back to the bar, she frowns and rolls her eyes*
[07-23:10] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : *is still behind the bar making drinks, having just scared off some guy who asked him if he was gay or something to be able to work in a place like this without getting to distracted, to which Jaylin had replied “What do you think big boy?” and winked, to which the man had turned and quickly walked away from, looking a tad upset. First thing to make Jaylin smile all night, though he’s hoping he doesn’t get in trouble for that. And even if he did, it was worth it. He finishes the drink just ordered and sets it on the bar for to be taken to the customer, closing his eyes for a moment to try and will the headache he still has away*
[07-23:11] 595, *Katya Yudin : As long as they pay before starting the mess, I won't mind at all, hun...*Kisses her on the cheek before checking her watch, frowning a bit* On stage in two..gotta get ready. You'll be watching me?
[07-23:13] 521, *Damali Aloula: I'll be begging for a lap dance later. *winks* I gotta get some of my stuff on, but I'll be there.
[07-23:16] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *drops the tray rather loudly on the bar, then slides the paper with 12 orders across the bar next to it. She doesn't look none too pleased. It could be at him, or the crowd, or maybe she just has a headache. That's the thing about women, expecially red heads. You just never know*
[07-23:18] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : *opens his eyes at the sound of the tray being put down so loud* Bad night? *take the list and looks it over, putting it down then going about making the drinks*
[07-23:18] 595, *Katya Yudin : Mmm..you can get more than that and I won't even charge ya for it..*Winks, squeezing her tightly again* Good to see you here, have a good time, Isabel..*Smirks slighlt, heading out of the dressing room*

[07-23:20] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : Just get my drinks, then you can tell me who you really are. *turns so that her back is against the bar, hearing entrance music for someone. The bouncers near the stage become more alert*
[07-23:24] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : *gives her a quick kind of ‘What the hell?’ look as he goes about finishing up the drinks, still actively avoiding looking at the stage, especially with the entrance music starting. He finishes making the drinks, and loads the tray* There you go…*is still looking at her a bit like she’s just gone insane, not getting where the comment came from*
[07-23:28] 521, *Damali Aloula: *Damali quickly begins throwing on her clothes, wanting to make sure she see's Katya's every move*
[07-23:30] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *wordlessly picks up the tray holding the drinks, delivering them, collecting her tips with a smile and a few more orders as well, which she passes off to another girl on her way back to the bar. She walks right behind the bar, her hand looping around Jaylin's upper arm, but doesn't pull* Come on. You're due for a break.
[07-23:33] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : Okay…*said a bit slowly as he’s still wondering what is going on, and what she had meant by that comment. He walks with her, not really concerned, just confused*
[07-23:35] 595, *Katya Yudin : *With the entrance music starting, that's her cue to go up and on stage. She quickly heads back for the stage and gives a nod to the DJ, standing behind the curtains and taking a few breaths before stepping out to cheers and whistles of all shorts, making her smile warmly and encouraging her routine more to give the customers what they wanted.*
[07-23:37] 521, *Damali Aloula: *hears the yelling and hurries her tan ass out, getting in a seat close enough to get a good look*
[07-23:37] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *walks back through the back room, the girls changing don't seem to mind. She walks into one of the bathrooms and pulls him in, closing the door* Who did you piss off?

[07-23:49] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Starts up the dancing, waving her hips side to side in time with music, swirling around slowly with each step until she gets out and onto the main part of the stage. She presses her back to the pole and leans back, dipping her head back, while raising one leg to wrap around the metal, gripping both hands before pushing off and sliding around. Her hair follows her movements as it's free and when she stops, forms a curtain in front of her eyes. She flicks it back and gives a sultry smile to the crowd, catching Damali's eyes and giving her a wink before sliding back up the pole and turning around for all the fellas to gaze, suddenly jerking down and planting both hands on the stage while thrusting her pelvis up, looing between her spread legs at the audience*

[07-23:50] e87, *Nikolai Drakov : ((Hey there)) *Resting on Katya's sofa watching American cartoons, surprised that they all seem to emulate Japanese animation in some way or another. He draws from a cigarette held inbetween two fingertips, exhaling a long stream of thick, heavy white smoke. Surprisingly, he seems rather relaxed and calm in spite of recent events. Appearances can be deceiving, though. Beneath the surface, he broods and contemplates with frustration*
[07-23:51] 521, *Damali Aloula: ((a Gothic horrorish L.A.))
[07-23:52] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : I pissed someone off? I don’t know…maybe I puked on someone’s shoes and don’t remember? *shrugs, not understand where the question came from, then something dawns on him* What’s this about? I was only mean to one of the customers…and he deserved it.
[07-23:53] 2a2, Jake: he walks down the street, keeping to himself and looking like opey in a whorehouse he keeps to himself, looking for a place to sit and rest

[07-23:56] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : He just….he was just saying a bunch of stupid stuff, then looked at me and asked if I was gay or something, to be working here. I just…in a way that probably wasn’t appropriate, told him I might be…and winked at him. He didn’t seem to appreciate it. That’s it, that’s the worse I’ve done all night…I’d say I’m sorry…but I’m not really. *shrugs, it’s the truth*
[07-23:57] 2a2, Jake: he makes his way into the burning bush, paying his way in and entering the wonderland of flesh, his eyes scannign the room slowly, *

[08-00:00] 2a2, Jake: *he runs his fingers thorugh his hair and finds a place to sit over int he corner of the room, he is pail, and for some reason those around him seem to move out of his way when ever he walks by((eerrie presence))*

[08-00:05] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Pauses for only a moment, dipping down slowly until she's almost laying on the stage, but pushes up with her arms and slides around, with her legs in the air until she is once again facing the crowd of leering men, figuring it's about time to show some more flesh. She stands and walks towards the back of the stage, reaching up to the sides of the tube top and pulling it off in a swift motion, twilring it around before sending it out to Damali to catch, admiring the cheers and claps and $1's that fly up onto the stage, walking back toward the front, letting her hands dip the skirt low onto her hips, giving a glimpse of the black thong underneath*
[08-00:08] 521, *Damali Aloula: *catches it and bites her lip, hoping Katya makes sure the spectators are not totatly ignored*

[08-00:14] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Realizes that a bit to late and makes up for it, making her way over to a male patron and cradling her fingers under his chin, drawing his gaze up to her smile, then turning around and lowering her skirt to reveal the back of thong, to which he stuffs a $1 into and gets to view up close as she lowers the skirt to the stage and slips out of it, sauntering over to the pole again and playing with the staps of her bra, enticing the others to pay up more to view more*
[08-00:14] 2a2, Jake: he leans back, letting his eyes move over each person, inspecting them almost, feeling as if he were in danger, but yet having no clue as to why*

[08-00:17] 2a2, Jake: he reaches into his pocket and finds a large roll of hundreds sitting there, he pulls it out and looks at it as if he has never seen it before*
[08-00:17] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : Nothing *leans off the wall, having to reajust her wings and brush past him to open the door*Just be careful on the street.
[08-00:18] 521, *Damali Aloula: *smiles and feels good even with the bit of jealousy at all the men that are vying for her attention*
[08-00:19] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : No, you don’t get to do something like this and then just walk away *reaches out to grab her arm, not really caring that he shouldn’t as he puts another hand on the door to keep it shut* What is going on?
[08-00:20] 2a2, Jake: when the drink comes he gives the waitress a hundred and tells her in a thick english accent* keep the change love* he stops for a moment, is he english, damn he can't remember, what is he, he's jake, and thats just about all he gets*
[08-00:22] 2a2, Jake: he closes his eyes and returns the roll of cash into his pocket as suddenly he has a head ache, he rubs his temples, feeling that he just doesn't belong here*
[08-00:24] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *her free hand lashes out, headed for his chest. She has a tendancy to over react like this when she feels threatened... and she does.* Don't grab me.
[08-00:25] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : ((jake. what's your e-mail server?))
[08-00:25] 2a2, Jake: bloody hell * he swears, the sound of his voice almost scaring him as the room seems to be screaming at him(( auspex1)) he hears kailynn yell out and looks up for a second, *

[08-00:26] 2a2, Jake: (( you can email it to jabinbooth@yahoo.com))
[08-00:27] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Catches a glimpse of Jake's wad of cash and gets a hug grin on her face, turning her back to the crowd and getting a firm grip on the pole, wiggling her firm bottom for the guys and girl to oogle openly, reaching back and even spanking herself playfully, getting more cheers and "Woohoo!"'s from the guys. She straigtens up on the pole and dips down in split, laying on her back and winking at all those watching, reaching up to push her breasts together in the bra and waiting for one to reach out and place a bill in her cleavage*
[08-00:27] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : ((I just still haven't gotten it yet. hmm... could you give it a try again? I've been having a rough time getting things from yahoo))
[08-00:27] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : *let’s go of her arm, but doesn’t take his hand off the door* Tell me what is going on, now. You obviously know something that’s wrong, and it has to do with me. Tell me what it is.
[08-00:28] 2a2, Jake: (( I sent it from mail.com, hold on I think I have a hotmail account))
[08-00:30] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *didn't actually hell, but certainly raised her voice. She steps back as far as she can in the little room, crossing her arms defensivly over her chest again. She realizes that Dunstan could very well kill her for this, and probably will, but this guy was obviously no facist dictator or... as far as she knew... any kind of mass murder* You're just in trouble. There's somebody out to kill you.
[08-00:30] 2a2, Jake: he catches the sight of katya moving her body and feels like he should do something here so he stands and walks over to the stage and thumbs out two hundreds and a hotel key falls on the the floor, he picks it up and looks at it* what the hell?* he asks as feels sick again*
[08-00:34] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : *laughs at first, thinking this is some kind of joke, but that stops soon enough as he looks at her, and he frowns, just, staring* What….why…I haven’t done anything…who?
[08-00:34] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Raises an eyebrow slightly, hesitating a bit, he was throwing off her rythem by making her wait to long..* Come on..*In her most sulty voice* Stick it in and I'll take it off, hun...hmm? *Wiggles her breasts to get his attention up and to there, preparing to get up and dance more if her didn't*
[08-00:34] 521, *Damali Aloula: *Damali's eyes almost bulge. Are those HUNDREDS?*
[08-00:36] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : I don't know *figures the response is good for all of the questions. Her wings it the sides of the room, making them move down and the straps twist to bite into her arm*
[08-00:39] 2a2, Jake: (( sorry am at work)) he does what she wants and offers her a smile, then he goes back to the table and sits down, looking at the key*
[08-00:39] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : Oh, then how do you know about it? *his annoyance and general extreme anger at this situation is very apparent in his voice. He doesn’t know why anyone would want to kill him, he’s never done anything to deserve it, and he also doesn’t understand how Kailynn knows about it*
[08-00:39] 2a2, Jake: (( sent it again))
[08-00:40] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : (got it. thanks)
[08-00:40] 2a2, Jake: ((btw he slid two hundred dollar bills in her gee string))
[08-00:41] 2a2, Jake: (( if there is a problem contact me on msn))
[08-00:44] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Smiles, thinking they're ones and gets up, turning her back to the crowd again to reach behind and unclasp the lacy bra, throwing it to the back of the stage and turning around suddenly to get the maximum jiggling effect, pink pasties covering her nipples. The dance continues and she slids up to the pole again, pressing it between her chest and grinding her hips along the pole, riding it somewhat*
[08-00:46] 2a2, Jake: ((BRB))
[08-00:47] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : Look, I don't know why this person is after you or what you did... all I know is that you did something to piss someone off. I can't tell you who it is. I'm sorry, but I've said too much already.
[08-00:50] 521, *Damali Aloula: *keeps an eye on the man that gave Katya the unusual sum of money. If a guy was acting weird, its generaly a good idea for somebody to watch him*
[08-00:51] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : Well it’s a little late now for saying to much isn’t it? Someone’s out to kill me, for who knows what reason, and you’re the only person who knows anything about it. I’m suppose to just go ‘oh, that’s to bad, darn it’ and let it go? I know it may not always seem like it…but I don’t exactly want to just sit around and wait to get killed. *he’s a bit panicked now, being sober enough to completely grasp this situation, and realizing his will to live does actually exist*
[08-00:51] 2a2, Jake: he's not even watching her, he more looks like someone who is one the dark side of the moon without a map in sight, he flips over the key in his hand and stares at it blankly*
[08-00:53] 2a2, Jake: he feels like he's being watched and looks up, seeing the man staring at him and suddnely there is a sudden rush of rage that boils his blood and drives him to near frenzy, but as quickly as it comes it's gone, he looks down at the table and returns the key to his pocket, finding a pack of camels and a old looking zippo lighter, he must smoke, why not, he lights one up and takes a deep drag*
[08-00:53] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : Look, I sympathize, but I'm not going to get killed to cover your ass. At least I bought you some time and didn't come out and tell him where you were. *hopes her slip goes unnoticed. She hadn't meant to give away any detail about Dunstan, including gender*
[08-00:54] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : ((did my e-mail go through, Jake? hotmail died on me)
[08-00:55] 2a2, Jake: (( umm, let me check
[08-00:56] 595, *Katya Yudin : *The song now coming to it's end, slows and so does she, giving tantalizing movements with her hands until it ends, followed by clapping, whistles, and the like. Katya gives them all a big smiles and rushes around on stage to gather up the money left by the patrons, letting more stuff some into her thong which she slides down to give them a nice peek and she goes to the end of the stage, bows, and retreats with her clothes*
[08-00:58] 2a2, Jake: he watches the dancer for a second, taking another long drag from the cig, feeling better almost even though he's stil in the dark about all those important things, like who the hell he is*
[08-00:58] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : So you know this guy? I don’t believe this. I knew you worked here…but I didn’t think you would be involved with any kind of killing *he’s steadily heading towards a complete break down, what the hell is he going to do about this? He still can’t quite fathom why anyone would want to kill him* And what the hell does having more time mean? This guy’s just gonna give up if he can’t find me? *is fishing a bit for more information, though he’s not sure how much more he can get*
[08-01:00] 2a2, Jake: looking to jaylin he watches him for a second and then looks aroundfor a second checking to see if he is being watched*
[08-01:03] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : I really... don't know *and she doesn't. She has no idea if he'll give up or hunt him down. She's guessing he'd hunt him down* And I'm not involved with anything.
[08-01:04] 521, *Damali Aloula: *Damali is watching him... but she's also following where Katya's going, and opts to follow her*
[08-01:06] 2a2, Jake: he looks at the woman who has been watching him and suddenly her arura floats to the surface and he sees her creature type((auspex2))*
[08-01:06] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Heads backstage and back to the dressing rooms, throwing on her outfit again and wiping the sweat off with a towel, seearching around for..wait..that's right, she got rid of her skirt to Damali..well..decides to wait for a bit befor going out and doing her waitressing*
[08-01:07] 2a2, Jake: (( nope never got it))
[08-01:08] dd3, *Jaylin Anderson : Then how do you know what’s going on? Guys usually just tell you there planning on killing someone for no reason? I….your just gonna walk away and let this happen….*just lets his arms drop to his sides, what does it matter anyway? If someone’s coming after him…maybe it’s just his time finally. It figures, things seem to start getting better, and now he’s going to get killed* Whatever…It’s not like I can really do anything about it. Anyway…I guess this’ll be my last night here…not real point in staying. *has started talking to himself more than her, rambling a little, and he suddenly feels the urge for a drink worse than he ever has before, or at least that he remembers*
[08-01:09] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : ((nab me on a messenger then))
[08-01:10] 521, *Damali Aloula: ((I'll assume that 2 means its good, as I don't follow WoD rules...)) *Damali is revealed to be a Jinn of some sort just as she goes into the dressing room. She's grinning wildly at Katya* That was amazing.
[08-01:11] 2a2, Jake: *he runs his fingers through his blond hair and snuffs out his cig and he drinks his pint in one long swollow and then orders andother drink*
[08-01:11] 2a2, Jake: (( auspex 2 means aura perception, I can see your creature type genral mood that kind of thing, no big deal))
[08-01:12] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : I know because he's the someone that did something nice for me. There is nothing that I can do about it. He's not that good of a friend. He'll probably execute me just for telling you.
[08-01:15] f21, *Jaylin Anderson : Yeah, he sounds like a real gem, and how the hell is he going to know? Like I’ll tell him when he finds me that you told me already? *is still angry, and runs a hand through his hair* I’m leaving…I’m going somewhere, getting completely wasted and just….doing that. Thanks for…whatever you were trying to do.
[08-01:15] 595, *Katya Yudin : Wasn't it? *Grins and hugs her tightly, pecking her on the cheek* I just felt so alive out there..and it was so fun! *Giggles wildly*
[08-01:16] 595, *Katya Yudin : ((brb))
[08-01:17] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : Don't you think that there is something more usefull that you can be doing? *she just looks at him, not believing what she's hearing*
[08-01:20] f21, *Jaylin Anderson : Like what? Run? Where am I going to go, and when I actually get down to it…I have nothing to try to run for, this job is the most I have. *he’s just kinda staring through her now, reason has nothing to do with this anymore* Maybe it’s just my time.
[08-01:21] 521, *Damali Aloula: ((Jake?))
[08-01:21] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : Maybe... find out who hired him and why? But maybe you'll drink yourself to death and it won't matter.

I’m not going to waste time doing things that won’t matter in the end, I’m going to do something that I at least like to do…*pauses, a thought occurring to him* Huh…maybe that’s why there after me…*doesn’t appear to be thinking of elaborating on that*
[08-01:23] 521, *Damali Aloula: *hugs her back* You're a natural Katya. *pushes her back lightly to look into her eyes with a "I told you so" look*
[08-01:26] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *and she doesn't ask. She simply stands, her arms still crossed*
[08-01:26] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Nods lightly* Yeah..I was just so nervous though..god that's such a releif..Thank you so much for getting me the interview *Hugs her again* Ah, now to waitress..shouldn't be to hard, yeah?
[08-01:26] 2a2, Jake: he closes his eyes and shivers at the utter blank that he draws when he tries to remeber in what city he's in, or better yet what fucking country, he sounds british, maybe he's in england,*
[08-01:28] f21, *Jaylin Anderson : I’m just going to go *looks at her, since she’s kinda staying in the way a little* If you’ll move…
[08-01:29] 2a2, Jake: he's shaking now, he looks to a waitress and orders a bourbon*
[08-01:30] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *she opens the door and steps out, slamming the door behind her before he can step out. She shouldn't have said anything... or should she? Did she do the right thing, or make everything worse? She should have never gotten involved*
[08-01:32] 2a2, Jake: when the drink comes he downs it in one gulp and pays with another hundred(( supporting the single mothers of america!!)) and orders another one*
[08-01:33] 521, *Damali Aloula: Waitressing or asking guys if they want a lap dance. I'd just as soon waitress myself.
[08-01:33] 521, *Damali Aloula: ((Jake, did your char care that Damali wasn't human?))
[08-01:33] f21, *Jaylin Anderson : *doesn’t move as the door is slammed, and just pushes it open, walking out himself* That wasn’t necessary *just moves to walk out, and head for the back door, what was the point in going back to work?*
[08-01:34] 2a2, Jake: (( he doesn't know you're human, I have no lore of Jjinn
[08-01:35] 2a2, Jake: (( he just assumed you weren't a vampire))
[08-01:36] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : I thought you needed more time to think about it. *pulls the wings off as she moves though the back room, tossing them on a table* You could at least go tell them that you're walking out so they can call someone in
[08-01:36] 2a2, Jake: he closes his eyes and waits for his drink as he tried to remember, must remember, must know what the hell is going on, but all he gets is blank after blank*
[08-01:38] 595, *Katya Yudin : Yeah..*Sighs a bit disappointingly* Well..keep the skirt for me, would ya? *grabs a nearby tray* Think I'll just go around and serve for awhile, my first night, didn't hire me for long. *Shrugs* Just to get a feel for it I assume...or they really did think I would start a riot..*Laughs lightly*
[08-01:40] f21, *Jaylin Anderson : Think about what? Dying, done that. *he stops in his tracks, and closes his eyes again, the headache seeming to get worse* Right, I should do that *turns around, to walk back, everything just seems surreal now, the end actually seeming to be so close now, after so long*
[08-01:41] 2a2, Jake: *he lights a cig and scans the crowd as he takes a deep drag and exhales as he catches a sight of the stripper he gave two hundred dollars too and laughs a little, feeling a tad bit better* I bloody well better get a lap dance for two hundred bucks
[08-01:42] 521, *Damali Aloula: Oh! Hey... *grabs her around the waste and pulls her back close* Gotta see whatcha got.
[08-01:45] 2a2, Jake: when the drink comes he takes it and sips it this time, feeling a little better, he checks all his pockets this time and finds some keys to nothing, another wad of cash in his slacks , a empty wallet with just a tarot card in it and a card from some palm reader in new orleans* lets see what we got here
[08-01:46] 595, *Katya Yudin : *Chuckles lightly and shakes her head* Seems I've got a debt to pay, doesn't it? *Pecks her on the lips and squeezes her closer* Lead the way to the private booth then...
[08-01:47] dc2, *Kailynn Benson : *picks up her long jacket from the back of a chair and walks out into the main room. Chaz hands over her tips that she missed* Thanks *wraps the jacket around herself as she walks out the back door*
[08-01:50] f21, *Jaylin Anderson : *walks back out to tell them he’s taking off at the bar, not really waiting for a response before turning and walking away then outside, in his own little world as he walks, trying to remember where the closest bar is*
[08-01:50] 521, *Damali Aloula: *smirks* I was actualy gonna ask how much you made...
[08-01:50] 2a2, Jake: he moves to the stage, waiting for the next stripper, grabbinb a seat while looking at the tarot card, seeing it is the card for the magicain, * thats bloody wierd

[08-02:04] 521, *Damali Aloula: *Damali notices the new girl as she begins slowly shaking her hips to the rythem of the song. She looks over and notices a woman has come in. While its not absolutely uncommon for a woman to come to the club, about half are fellow strippers Damali recognizes. Having duely noted Sam, she continues to move faster and faster in her dance*
[08-02:06] 2a2, Jake: he thumbs out three hundred and throws it to the stripper, downing the rest of his drink, but still unfortunatley just as sober as death*bloody hell*he whispers*
[08-02:09] 73b, Sam Andrews: *watches the stripper, half envious, as that was one thing she could never do**she simply just didn't have the build for it, she was short, first off, under five feet tall, and scrawney**thankfully, she had boobs, even though these were usually minimized by wearing a sports bra, as she was a perpetual tummy sleeper, and boobs just get in the way of a good day's rest*
[08-02:09] 2a2, Jake: brb
[08-02:11] 73b, Sam Andrews: *she plops herself down beside jake, dressed in a plaid skirt and dickies tank top**a waitress id's her, of course, kid looks about 18, thanks to the finer art of a shit load of makeup**she pulls out her id, proving she is, infact of age, then orders up a Sapphire and tonic*
[08-02:11] 521, *Damali Aloula: *moves over to the money, recognising those oh so precious extra zeros. Her upper body sways from side to side like a snake while her lower one bounces with each beat and half beat. Her arms fluidly weave the hazy veils like streamers, allowing brief looks at her dark skin*
[08-02:15] 2a2, Jake: he looks to sam and smiles, dressed in a tan trench that looks well used, a white dress shirt, tan slacks and a red tie, * ello, * he says in a thick british accent as his golden eyes look her over, then he orders a drink and pays for both of their drinks with a hundred*
[08-02:18] 521, *Damali Aloula: *with a deft hand, the dollars are swiped up while making the fluid motion look like part of the act. Damali slowly shakes her body to a squating position, knees spread outward to give him an easy look between her thighs. Whether her looks or not, Damali studies Jake, trying to determine if he's just a weird human or something else*
[08-02:18] 73b, Sam Andrews: Yo. *she says with a nod, and doesn't protest as he buys her a drink**assuming smoking is allowed in the joint, she pulls a pack of cloves black from her messenger bag and lights one up as she holds the slender, black wrapped fag between her pouty lips*
[08-02:19] 2a2, Jake: *oh it's clear he's something human, in fact when she looks at him she gets a real uneasy feeling, no exactly danger, but not I want you to come with you either, he looks deathly pail and like he's lost*
[08-02:21] 2a2, Jake: (( I meant differant then human, sorry))
[08-02:22] 73b, Sam Andrews: *as being tactless is one of her weaknesses, she watches Damali closely as she does her poll shimey* Damn, that looks like it hurt. *she slides the girl a twenty, just to be nice, is sitting at her, umm, stage...yeah**she turns to Jake and in the same manner, bluntly asks* You're not from around here, are ya?
[08-02:23] 2a2, Jake: he looks at her for a long moment, not really knowing how to answer her question* I guess not* he says, thnking of the key in his pocket* I think I'm here on vacation
[08-02:25] 521, *Damali Aloula: *wonders what the hells up with the two amazingly generous people... she hasn't even gotten to the part of her act where she's nude. She takes the money anyway and with a swift motion pulls her bra off and leaves it for the kind lady that felt a twenty was a standard tip*
[08-02:26] 2a2, Jake: he gold eyes trace the naked woman and for a moment he watches her intently again, then he slides another two hundred across to her, he reached into his coat and pulls out his smokes and lights one up*
[08-02:29] 73b, Sam Andrews: *and gets, a bra!**seems rather excited about this, in almost a child like way, and picks it up, then puts it on over her shirt* You think you're here on vacation? *she arches a brow, then looks to the waitress as their drinks arrive**picks hers up and downs it, promptly ordering another, and slips the waitress some cash before jake tries to pay for another drink, as she doesn't want him going broke**Sam has no clue what a standard tip is, she's honestly never been to a strip club before, and this shows, as she's having herself a good old time*
[08-02:31] 2a2, Jake: *he looks at sam and wonders if he knows her, suddenly feeling those memories creeping up on his again and then slipping away as suddenly as they came* sure, sounds nice doesn't it,* he sees whats she does and lets her, probably best not many know at the moment he's carrying over four thousand in hundreds in once pocket and nearly another six thousand in another, no clue as to why he has it so best to hold on to it*
[08-02:32] 521, *Damali Aloula: *for the first time notices the gold eyes as she considers what he wants her to do, considering he's just layed down 400 dollars. Damali's one of the few that doesn't give lap dances or blow jobs in the back room, and of the slightly larger majority that won't sleep with high paying customers. How she can explain this while in the middle of her performance is beyond her. And what the hell IS he anyway? Jihan mentioned something about encountering a ghul... In any case, with the couple extra hundred on the ramp, she begins sliding off her silver panties in a rather erotic way*
[08-02:35] 2a2, Jake: he watches her, turning his attention to the card he got from the palm reader in new orleans, he couldn't recall, he looked at it and saw it read Madam Jane's , where destiny is fortold, then on the back it had another latin word, this one meant redemption*
[08-02:36] 2a2, Jake: he looks to sam, asking her * do you know me? Do I look familar to you?* he asked, wondering if she knew him*
[08-02:36] 73b, Sam Andrews: Sure does. *she says dryly, narrowing her eyes as she watches Jake* Get your mind wiped or something? *yes, we knows plenty about this, we do, from personal experience**her second drink comes and she downs it as quickly as the first, and orders a third**she peers over his shoulder at the card* New Orleans Voo DOo shit? *she asks, for the first time, a southern accent is apparent in her voice*
[08-02:37] 73b, Sam Andrews: *she shrugs* Cant say. There's too much about my own life I dont remember. *she shrugs* Sorry.

[08-02:41] 521, *Damali Aloula: *great, not only is she expected to perform for a huge wad of money, but they aren't even all that interested. She shakes her buns down to the floor and pulls the panties all the way off. She then spreads her legs, leaving little for Jake's imagination and tosses him the silver panties. Now, the only bits of cloth on her are the gauzimer (sp?) silk veils*
[08-02:42] 2a2, Jake: he looks to sam* what do you mean has my mind been wipes, what the bloody hell does that mean?* he asks, as he looks away from the dancer, the panties fly towards him and with lightning speed he catches them on purley reflex*
[08-02:46] 73b, *Sam Andrews: *notices his prime reflexes, then shrugs once more* Mind wipes. When someone, be it the government or some supernatural being goes into your grey matter and erases a certian part of your memory. It happens. *she looks up to Damali again, watching for a moment like a child would watch the toys in a Macey's store window christmas display, nothing perverted or sexual in her eyes as she watches*
[08-02:48] 2a2, Jake: *he closes his eyes and rubs his temples again, feeling like the world is falling in on him. He looks back to the stripper, was he a secret agent, he closed his eyes and concentrated, he centers his mind on remembering, that one thought, suddenly a surge of horrible thoguths fly through his head, horrible images of vampires and monsters and suddenly an ashtry flys off the table and smashes into the wall, he jerks up and looks startled*
[08-02:49] 521, *Damali Aloula: *appreciates Sam's interests, sexual or not, over the "pay lots of money then not pay attention" attitude given by Jake. She continues to move the viels in a seductive manner, some how making the fact she's completly nude still seem like she's revealing something when her bare flesh is seen without the ultra thin strip of silk blocking it.*
[08-02:49] 2a2, Jake: vampire* he whispers lowly as he suddenly knows at least what he is, *
[08-02:50] 73b, *Sam Andrews: *she cant help but tear her eyes away from Damali and to the wall which had the ash tray smashed aganist it* Welcome to the club. *she grumbles, then returns her gaze to the stripper, downing her third drink as it arrives*
[08-02:50] 2a2, Jake: *he looks to damali and smiles his best charming smile, watching her dance, he feels like shit, but is best not to over react*
[08-02:52] 521, *Damali Aloula: *Since Damali's pretty proffessional and she knows other people are still watching her, her bobing and swawying body doesn't seem to react to the sudden violent reaction. Vampire... she's heard that name somewhere.... something Jihan told her*
[08-02:57] 2a2, Jake: he looks to damali and then to sam, feeling one trace of his memories come back to him, he is excited and smiles as he runs his hands over his chest and suddenly he feels something he did not feel before. he waits then slowly unbuttons the top four buttons on his white shirt. his skin is even pailer under his shirt, but he is well toned and not too bad to look at. The shocking part is that there are words covering his chest and a jewled rosary handing aroudn his neck* oh fuck* he swears looking at his chest*
[08-02:58] 73b, *Sam Andrews: Dude, even I could have told you that. *she smirks, finding a weird kinship with this dude, as he's probably had his mind erased in a manner such as hers was* And you say it like it's such a terrible thing. *she looks him up and down* When you obviously have it better than me. *she looks at the cross and cringes, and tears her eyes away, as if sight of it burned her eyes* Put that thing away, already. Before you poke someone's eye out or something.
[08-03:01] 521, *Damali Aloula: *okay... this is officialy "What the fuck" time in Damali's mind, or the Arabic equivilant. She's not sure whats going on with the cross, but why he felt the need to take off his shirt to show it and why they're both frightened of the Christian cross is beyond her*
[08-03:03] 2a2, Jake: the words on his chest spiral in a circular motion and are all in latin and some other languages that may look like just chicken pecks, he touches the cross and it does not affect him, this is suddenly a new problem, if he was a vampire then what had happened to him, or better who happened to him, he buttons his shirt and looks to the stripper, locking eyes with her for a second, subconsiously using telepath he sends her a mental image*
[08-03:03] 2a2, Jake: (( you going to let me do that?))
[08-03:06] 521, *Damali Aloula: ((go for it))
[08-03:06] 73b, *Sam Andrews: I'm not sticking around for this wonderous jaunt down memory lane. *she says as she slides from her stool and makes for the back door**nothing gives her the wiggins more than any sign of the Hebrew God*
[08-03:08] 2a2, Jake: she sees a white room covered in the same writing that is on his chest, and in the middle of the room is Jake, but there is soemthing very differant about him, something that she can't quiet place her finger on. He is in a straight jacket and it tied down to a char, the images circles around she sees Frank, beaten, bleeding and near frenzy, he looks up at her and screams* HELP ME GET THE FUCK OUT!
[08-03:09] 2a2, Jake: (( you both might have gotten that as he has looked you both in the eyes, up too you))
[08-03:10] 521, *Damali Aloula: ((Frank?))
[08-03:12] 2a2, Jake: (( Frank is who Jake really is, he's just been mind raped and has no clue as to who he is, ))
[08-03:13] 2a2, Jake: (( thats when you saw Jake at first in the image he was differant, because it wans't jake but frank wanting the fuck out))
[08-03:14] 73b, *Sam Andrews: *ok, so she got the image and stops in her tracks, then looks back to Jake, sending her an image of her own, a young girl with sam's features, in truth herself at the loss of innocence, holding the form of a young man in her arms**it's only a form, as the back of his head has been blown in with a double barren shot guy that lies at her feet**sam strokes the boy's hair as tears of blood seep down her cheeks**once her memory has been telepathically sent to Jake/Frank, she kicks open the back door with Potence and steps onto the street, needing to hunt, as she's now in a foul humor*
[08-03:15] 521, *Damali Aloula: *Damali, in the minds eye is a blue skinned creature that fades away to nothingness past the navel. Her eyes are a blue tinted white that crackle with energy. She stares at the battered man, not sure what to do, and even if she should if she knew what to do*
[08-03:16] 2a2, Jake: *he shakes the image from his head and loos for sam, but she is already gone, he looks back to the stripper, having no clue that he sent the image to her or that he sent one to sam, he just sits there, more confused then ever*
[08-03:18] 2a2, Jake: (( damn temporis?))
[08-03:18] 2a2, Jake: ((damn))
[08-03:18] 521, *Damali Aloula: *back in what we laughingly refer to as reality, Damali's actualy sitting on her knees, having stopped her dancing. She's stunned, but her eyes are a burning electric blue, a rather drastic change from the poopls of black common to peoples with dark skin color that she normaly wears*
[08-03:19] 2a2, Jake: he looks to damali* you alright love?
[08-03:20] 73b, *Sam Andrews: ((yuppers...))*she's out in the ally, trying to blow off some steam, so she kicks a dumpster and puts a good sized dent in it* Son of a bitch! *ok, so that still hurt**she hops up and down on one foot for a moment, thinking about how smart that really was*
[08-03:20] 2a2, Jake: (( how the hell did you get temporis?))
[08-03:23] 73b, *Sam Andrews: ((sam is a daughter of lilith, she doesn't need to be of a bloodline or anything to pick up a disicipline, only needs to study under someone who can teach it to her. only problem is she picks up character traits of the person who teaches it too her, the bad character traits))
[08-03:23] 521, *Damali Aloula: *glares at him and slowly pulls herself up, gathering the thin bits of silk over her body as if to keep from being seen naked by him* Please stay out of my head.
[08-03:24] 2a2, Jake: (( cool)) What?* he asks, having no clue as to why she said that, *
[08-03:24] 2a2, Jake: (( you headin out>))
[08-03:24] 521, *Cookie Monster: So I could teach her HTML and she'd pick up a strange craving for collecting altoid tins?
[08-03:25] 2a2, Jake: (( is that really a negative though altoid tins rock))
[08-03:25] 521, *Damali Aloula: Go in it again and your mind won't survive. *with that she heads back to the dressing room, about a minute before her song is even over*
[08-03:26] 73b, *Sam Andrews: ((*laughs* ummmm, yeah...)) *she grumbles to herself, then looks around, realizing she's left her dickies bag on the bar/stage area of the club* *frowing and half limping, she reenters the bar, beelines for the bag, and scoops it up, trying not to look at Jake or anyone else for that matter*
[08-03:26] 2a2, Jake: cocks an eye borw to her and shrugs, thinking he may have attracted a freak* mental note, no more hundreds
[08-03:27] 2a2, Jake: (( bummer))
[08-03:29] 2a2, Jake: (( contact me at jabinbooth@yahoo.com, I think this would be cool to continue))
[08-03:30] 2a2, Jake: he looks to sam and thinks about asking her to stay since she has triggered the most memory that he has had since this whole damned thing has happened*
[08-03:31] 521, *Damali Aloula: ((night folks))
[08-03:32] 73b, *Sam Andrews: Ok, just a suggestion...*she says dryly as she looks up at him* Keep your memories to yourself. Some of us have trouble dealing with our own fucked up lives, kay. *if he would notice, she would have ancient razor scars on her wrists, under a layer of gumbands and bracelets*
[08-03:33] 2a2, Jake: (( night))* he gets up to follow her out* just what in the bloody hell are you people talking about
