| In the bar Las Noches in the the vampiric city of New Mayhem... Kiss: *walks into the bar, shoves past several forms dancing to the blaring music, takes a seat at an unoccupied table* Damien: *walks in with his arms around two giggling girls and sits near Kiss* Hey...how ya doin'? Kiss: *raises eyebrows at the sight of Damien's company* Fine, I suppose... *eyes the girls* You've been busy... Damien: Nah, not really. These ladies have had too much to drink at the wrong kind of party, and I'm just teaching them a lesson about drinking so young. Is the back room empty? Kiss: *laughs* Yes, I suppose they do need to learn their lesson. I'm not sure...you'll have to ask Aubrey...who is... *looks around* Not here. Probably saw me come in and decided to lie low for a while... *grins* Damien: *smirk* Well, I'm going to take Aeris back there and start class. It'll only take a minute so can you hang on to the other one? *points to girl passed out on a couch* You can have her if you want... *leads the other girl to a back room and disappears behind the door* Kiss: Oh, yeah, leave me with the unconscious one. Oh, well...I prefer to catch my own. Have fun you two... *gets a bite (off another girl) while Damien is gone* Damien: *walks back out ALONE with his wrist bleeding* Woah. *wobbles into random dancers but quickly regains his balance and walks over to Kiss* Been a long time since I've done that. *licks his wrist* Kiss: *glances at Damien's wrist* Obviously...and...uh...what exactly were you trying to do? Damien: Well, James has been my only fledgeling to survive the next day so I figure I'll try again and see how this girl fairs. She has been bonded to me already so I just finished the process. She's dying right now. *looks for the other girl* I see you haven't touched your food...mind if I take it back? I'm a little drained... Kiss: Ah...I've never tried to change anyone. Maybe I should...and carry on the great and mighty line of Cein. *much sarcasm* Nope...not that food anyhow. I don't like them unconscious...if you know what I mean. I took care of my needs while you were gone... *glances to the back room* Any particular reason why you changed her? Damien: Nah, not really. I just knew that she could handle the blood so, she was a good choice...plus she is a kick boxer and she knows how to fight so she'll be able to handle herself fine without me. *picks the unconscious girl up byt the hair and bites her. Then grabs three shot glasses from behind the bar and fills them from her wound* Kiss: Oh...well...at least she can fight...or I can guarantee she wouldn't last too long. At first I thought she was a love interest....but obviously not... *asks the bartender for a drink, she hands him a glass of the typical unknown substance, he sips it, and watches Damien out of the corner of his eye* Don't have too many morals do you? Damien: SURE I DO! They just don't relate to women. *smirks and takes a shot* ooooOOOOooo she is as potent as rum...she wouldn't have survived drinking that much anyways so, I figure I shouldn't waste her. You act like I enjoy killing or something... *fangy grin and a laugh* Guess I do... *another shot* ...and about Aeris...I'll teach her some basics then send her on her damned way. I don't need more crap from James or Kat. *takes the last shot and takes the girl to the same back room and comes back alone* So, how's that band name coming? (yes, these weirdos have a band) Kiss: *takes another sipof his drink* You should get some...morals about women I mean...you'll be a lot happier. Band name? Haven't got one...except...Three Vampires and a Werewolf! *grins* Damien: Well, that won't do. We can't have a name that is degrading to what we are. Don't you have any pride? Why not have a name that shows we have surpassed humanity because of what we are? I suggest something to do with blood...Ruby Lies? Scarlet Life? Crimson Clarity? Surely anything is better than that insult to us that you have so far. But, yea, you can ask James if you want some better ones. I'm on a bit of a blood buzz right now *holds up a hand that shakes uncontrollably* I've totally exchnaged blood with a human so I'm feeling really bizarre. In fact *stands up and staggers slightly* I think I'll leave now. *falls flat on his face and doesn't move* Kiss: Um...Damien? *nudges Damien's shoulder with this foot* Ah crap...*stares at him for a minute* I suppose I should take him home...but I have no idea where he lives...*looks around* And I can't just leave him here so...*bends over and picks Damien up and apparates to his apartment, lays Damien on the sofa* I'll just dump him here... *sighs and goes up stairs* 3 hours later... Damien: *falls off couch* Huh...? *looks around and draws a dagger* Where the hell am I? *begins quietly searching the apartment and finds the upstairs bedroom* Hmmm...who is this? *nudges Kiss* Kiss: *sits up quickly, tackles Damien and puts a knife to his throat, then realizes who it is...pulls the knife away and lets go of Damien* Oh...sorry...forgot you were down there... *sheepish grin* Damien: *looks at Kiss with a slight grin and his knife still pointed at him* Well, that was fun...NOW GET OFF ME! *pushes him off* Why am I here? *remembers the bar and the blood buzz* WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME?!? Kiss: Jeez, chill. I did absolutely nothing. *holds up three fingers* Scouts honor! *grins* I just felt a bit guilty leaving you at the bar, and I didn't know where you lived...so...I brought you back here, dumped you on the couch, then went to bed. I don't see how you could have much of a problem with that...unless, you have problems with people simply being kind... *still sitting on the bed, leans back up against the wall and crosses his arms over his bare chest (and yes, he's shirtless...it's a law...he has to be ^^)* Damien: *calms down* Oh...well...bah...thanks I guess... *sits at the foot of the bed* At least you were smart enough not to touch my coat...so...where are we? Kiss: At my apartment...which is in the lovely town of (insert name of the small town we're supposed to be in here). If I'm not mistaken, you live here as well... Damien: Yea, I have a place around here but I've got tons of houses and apartments all over. *notices the clock on the nightstand* I've got another 2 hours before Aeris wakes up...sooooo... *lays across the foot of the bed* What do you wanna do? Kiss: To be honest...sleep... *blinks slowly* Damien: *jumps up* I KNEW YOU WERE STRAIGHT!!! Kiss: *laughs* Sorry to disappoint you...but...no...not entirely. Normally, Austyn would be here with me, but he's currently hunched over the lyrics he's supposed to be writing...for the band ya know...so alas...I sleep alone... *sighs* Damien: Riiiiiiight...well, I'm almost sober so I think I'm going to go back to the bar and wait for that girl to wake up. She might not want to feed right away, and you know how important that is. You can come if you don't want to spend all night alone. Kiss: Aww...that's really sweet of you Damien... *winks* Sure, I'll come along...it's something to do anyhow...just let me get dressed...and spike my hair...* gets up, heads towards the closet for a shirt, pauses in front of the mirror, runs finger along an almost flame shaped scar in the middle of his chest, mutters something under his breath, then continues to the closet, grabs a black shirt and pulls it on, then heads to the bathroom, runs gel through his hair and spikes it, comes back into the room and puts on various acceserories, chains, necklaces, etc.* Alright. Ready. Damien: I just didn't feel like sitting around for a couple of hours having no one to talk to, and Sam is probably asleep right now. *closes eyes and concentrates...his hair that got matted down while he slept gets respiked* Okay, let's go. Kiss: *raises eyebrows* Wow...and I thought I had mad skill with my hair... *grins, apparates to the Las Noches* Las Noches is beginning to calm down. Most of the mortals are gone, and those remaining are cattle or pets. Damien and Kiss walk in and move to the back room. The room is decked out with small broken pieces of mirrors on the walls with a black and white ceiling and carpet. There is a couch that a dark haired girl is laying on and not breathing. Another girl, a blonde, is on the floor and not breathing. Damien: *kneels next to the head of the girl on the couch and brushes the hair from her face* Kiss: *kneels beside the other girl, closes her eyes...speaks softly* You should always do them that favor... *lingers, then gets up...looks Aeris over* She's...beautiful... Damien: I don't feel sorry for the mortals that I kill, and that one is still barely alive...and Aeris? Of course she is beautiful. That's one of the reasons I chose her. *caresses her cheek...then under his breath* She reminds me of my daughter too... *moves away from Aeris and holds the other girl* Damn...she's starting to go cold...Aeris needs to wake up soon or I'll have to take her down the street to the witch's prison. Kiss: You should care...especially when they don't deserve it. You'll probably have to go to the prisons anyhow...there isn't too much blood left in her...not enough to feed a new fledgeling anyways. Did you say...daughter...? Damien: *sighs and becomes strangely interested with his feet* Yeah. I had a daughter when I was mortal. *looks up at Kiss* When I was first changed, I woke up in my home and killed my family. I've been remaking my family ever since... Kiss: Oh...well.. *feels a bit awkward...scratches the back of his head* I'm sorry. It's a common occurence though. Hm...is James part of this family remaking? Damien: *smirks and chuckles* Mhmm. I saw him several days after I understood my power and sired him. He was loyal to his father, but I killed him. *shrugs off hints of emotion* So now, I've got a son, a lover, and now the daughter. Kiss: Oh. So that's why you keep him around. I've always wondered about that. *winks* Hm. Does Kat know about this? Damien: *glares* James has grown up to be my equal, and he did very fast. He's more of a brother now, and it's always good to have a friend when you're fighting an army...Kat... *tries to grin innocently* She knows...somewhat. I've told her all about my past, but she doesnt' know about Aeris. Kiss: Yeah, I know. Chill, kiddo. I was only messing with ya. Well, you just changed her a few hours ago, so Kat hasn't missed much....unless you've had her around for a while. Damien: Well, yeah. *strokes Aeris' cheek* This kid will be up soon. Hey...what about your family? *looks curious* Kiss: My family? I barely knew 'em. I was born in Massachusetts during the Revolutionary War. Those damn red coats raided the small town we resided in and murdered most of the people in it -- including my paretns. I was just five at the time. I went cityward and lived on the streets until I was thirteen...and then I met Cein... Damien: Oh...so you're Cein's fledgling then? He is a bit more of a sadist than me, but I only met him briefly before Mayhem burned. Kiss: *nods* Third generation vamp. Well, as far as meeting Cein is concerned, briefly is best. He's not the nicest guy in the world -- far from it. I hate his guts, but he's the only father figure that I ever had. I owe him some gratitude. Damien: Nah...don't ever think that you owe your sire a thing. most are just psychos looking for some reason to continure. *Aeris stirs* Aeris: Hmm... *looks around with blackened eyes* Damien? Kiss: No kidding. *jumps slighty at Aeris' voice and looks to the couch* Hey, looks like sleeping beauty is awake... Damien: Welcome back. Do you remember what happened right before you passed out? *fangy grin that makes Aeris gasp and recoil in pain* It hurts to inhale, doesn't it? *gets close to her, she flinches* My dear...you're a vampyre. Aeris: *shakes her head* What? There's no such thing as-- Damien: *raises a hand and she goes quiet* I can assure you that we are very real and that you're the newest fledgling of Damien Acryllius Magnus. *tells all the rules about Vampyres and all that stuff* Aeris: *exhales deeply* Wow...what do you say after all that? *looks at Kiss* Kiss: (Hey ho, let's go!) You don't have to say anything, babe. It's a lot to take in all at once. Aeris: *smacks Kiss and glares defiantly* DON'T call me "babe!" *looks at Damien with blackened doe eyes* So, what do I do now? Damien: *brushes some hairs behind her ear and smiles* You should feed... *looks at Kiss still grinning* This is Kiss, dear. He won't hurt you unless you do that again. Kiss: *didn't expect the smack, recoils just a little* Ow! Jeez...sorry, bab--er, Aeris. I didn't know it would offend you so much. Yeah, listen to Damien. I'm really a harmless guy...unless provoked otherwise... *fangy grin* Aeris: *the last color in her cheeks fades away* Erm...I'm sorry, Kiss...do I have to drink blood now? Damien: *nods, smile gone* Yeah...but don't worry...you'll be surprised at how easily it comes. *helps her to her feet* I'm gonna take Aeris to the witch prison, Kiss...later. *disapparates with Aeris* Kiss: Alright...later kids. Good luck, Aeris. *disapparates* -END- |
