--a silent night[Kyo]

[Eri]

Kyo was content, breathing easily as he dozed lightly, always alert for any signs of danger. Seems he could never truly relax, but considering his life it wasn't too surprising. A soft smile turned the corners of his mouth up.
One eyelid opened slightly watching her calmly and his flicked over her calmly before resting on the curve of her neck. His lips twitched slightly. He could, it'd be so simple to just put a little pressure, wouldn't even have to bite. He growled inwardly at his own thoughts before he swore he heard thumping. He froze, eyes flying open as he concentrated on listening.
There, there were footsteps. One lip curled into a silent snarl before leaning forward. "Stay here, someone's here." He whispered so quietly so that he barely even heard himself before rolling over to fall off the bed landing as silently and gracefully as a cat. He moved easily towards the door even as the handle turned and opened outward. He lunged, striking out with both hands until he felt flesh and lifted upwards as he clenched his fists tighter. "Want to tell me what you're doing, trespassing in my home." He snarled as his gaze flicked to the faces of his prisoners and he dropped them. "Shit, Eri, Sai....why the hell are you two here?" He growled, still rather irritated that he'd been disturbed, even by his little siblings.

I moved along quickly, barely casting a glance behind me as I moved quickly. Kyo? Alive?! I could barely believe it when Sai had come to my home and explained that our older brother was still alive. I hadn't really known Kyo but from what I remembered he was aloof but kind and Sai had said he wanted us to meet up again, hence why I was moving as fast as I could. I still knew the scent of the family and it was that I was following.
I slid to a halt where the scent seemed to be concentrated and looked at Sai curiously before finding an open window to climb through. I could scent a human female here and that made me curious. What was Kyo doing with a human? Ah well.
I moved towards a closed door and reached to open it and before I knew it I was dangling with a fist at my throat. "K-k-kyo." I collapsed on the ground when he released me. I looked up, noticing that Kyo didn't have any clothes on and I looked away. "Uhhhhh, Kyo?" I muttered, looking away. Well, that explained the girl then I suppose.

I was following my sister, not really trusting any of the nightdwellers in the city. Of course she was the leader of a vampire clan, in the company of vampire that wasn't of her own clan. Me. I was a Tau Ceti vampire, loyal to the death to my beloved Sensation, but Eri was a close second. I pushed the thoughts of Sensation from my mind with a frown as Eri stopped and moved through a window. I followed after her quickly, relaxing a bit once I knew Kyo was around. He was no danger after all.
I moved forward, hovering behind Eri until I felt myself suddenly being lifted and Kyo's threatening voice and then I knew why the clan had feared him, and feared me. I was no match for him and that thought bothered me. I collapsed when he dropped me, rubbing my throat. "We were coming to visit. Eri couldn't resist coming to see you once I told her you were around." I said glancing to look at Eri and noticed her looking away from Kyo. What in the world was her problem?

I was tucked in close when I felt him lean over me and tell me to stay, I turned my head to watch him move and was about to tell him he was naked when he opened the door. My pressed my lips together as I saw him lift two people up and then drop them once more. It sounded like Kyo knew who they were and so, I would brave it. Though my legs were jello and I was tired, I would manage this at least. I pulled the sheet that had been covering me with me as I stood and wrapped it around myself as I walked up to Kyo, coming to stand right behind him. I let out a sigh and pressed my front to his back wrapping the sheet around both of us.

I stood up on tip toes to whisper in his ear, "Sorry, you were naked." I smiled as I said it. Yeah, I wasn't scared of him the way some were even if he had just about ripped these two apart for interupting our quiet time. I looked around him at the two, inspecting them as a normal human would have. Ha, if he could have seen my face he probably would have glared at me and questioned why I didn't act this way when I had met him. Guess to me it just meant that we were meant to be. I gave a shy smile, not totally comfortable in my nudity. I pressed a bit closer, keeping my hands locked together around his waist as best I could while I looked at the two, totally out of my element here.

[Eri]

Kyo grumbled looking down and putting his hands on his hips, not noticing that Eri was looking away until he looked down hearing her speaking. His head tilted to the side slightly. What the heck was her problem? He grumbled as Sai spoke. "Why didn't you knock or something. I could've killed you both!" He snarled, upset with both his siblings and himself. It wasn't his fault, this was his territory and he had to defend it. Ugh, he was an animal.
He was surprised when he suddenly felt Ashe touching him and he jumped, muscles tensing as he realized he would have recognized an enemy coming from that direction and turned his head to eye her in puzzlement. He had told her to stay so what was she doing over here? He frowned slightly until her words sunk in. He glanced down at the sheet and smiled rather sheepishly. Ooops. He sighed slightly, relaxing.
"I suppose I should be glad that these two are my siblings." He muttered darkly. He looked at Eri and sighed softly. "You've grown up Eri." He said calmly, shifting so he was a little more relaxed before glancing towards Ashe, realizing that they were using the same sheet. Crap, so much for getting her to go sit on the bed. Hmmm.
He eyed Eri. "Don't you dare say a word." He grumbled, upset about this little predicament before glancing to Sai and his embarrassment flashed into anger. "Sai...." He muttered darkly before forcefully kicking his brother and hearing the crunch of the bones popping as he glared at his little brother.

I was still looking away, trying to be modest. I mean Kyo was my brother after all and that was just wrong in so many ways. I risked looking out the corner of my eye as I heard rustling and footsteps before I saw the tensing of Kyo's muscles and I stifled a laugh.
I glanced up, hearing the sound of cloth moving and was relieved to see that Kyo was at least covered. I stood, dusting off my skirt and offering the girl a smile. "I'm sorry if we scared you. I just really wanted to see my brother since it's been ages." I said calmly. Hey at least I was being nice. I turned to look at Sai and shook my head before poking him rather roughly. "Get your mind off Sensation!" I said teasingly before jumping backwards as I saw Kyo's foot move. I rounded on my eldest brother, wondering why I had to be the youngest. "That wasn't very nice Kyo, and you've gone and broke your toes." I said shaking my head. And people said I was immature!

I looked up as I heard the rustling of cloth and caught a glimpse of why Eri was looking away and I blinked as I saw the girl and my mind flew away. I wanted to be back in the castle. I wanted to know Sensation was safe. I knew she had that cat, but something was worrying me. I frowned slightly, not realizing I was staring at the girl until I felt Eri poking me and tormenting. "Oh shove off Eri" I said playfully before feeling Kyo's foot connect with my ribs and I grunted in pain and clutched my ribs. "Kyo....that was really uncalled for." I managed to groan as I rubbed the ribs. I was gonna be in pain for some time because of him. I coughed and winced. "Dammit." I muttered as I stood up slowly, holding my side tightly, wondering and rather hoping that that there were merely bruised, but judging by the sound I wasn't going to hold my breath.

I felt him jump and tense for a moment, looking back at me with a puzzled look. Ah, so the big idiot hadn't realized that he was naked as the day he was born. I chuckled softly leaning my head against his back and closing my eyes. I could hear the rumble of his voice and I wrickled my nose at the ticklish feeling that went through me cheek. My eyes opened and I noticed the other guy was staring at him. I pressed a bit closer to Kyo and gave the male a haughty glare. He could stare all he wanted, but I would rip his head off if he said a single word about me.

My head turned quickly toward the movement of the female on the ground and I saw the smile that came over her face. Somehow that made me feel shy and exposed. I hid my face behind his shoulder, not sure how I felt about these two strangers that my lover seemed to know. I felt his leg move forward in a kicking motion and shifted slightly so as not to end up exposed. I heard the chunch of does and glared up at him. As he settled back and I followed suit, I reached with one hand to the tender flesh above the hip and pinched. "Fucking moron!" I snapped at him, "Really? You don't need to go kicking people." I lifted a hand and slapped his shoulder before replaying my hand back to where it had been around his waist.

[Eri]

Kyo grumbled slightly and flexed his toes until his toes popped into place and he winced, wanting to bend down and rub them but knowing it wasn't such a good idea. At least for Ashe. Why did his siblings have to drop in now? When all he really wanted to do was relax? He noticed the look Ashe was giving his brother and chuckled slightly. "So you distrust my brother but yet trust me?" He muttered, mostly to himself. How strange was the world he lived in. Not that it really mattered. He was content, he had a purpose too now. He had to protect Ashe from idiots.
He winced when he was pinched. "That was uncalled for!" He said, turning his head to look back at Ashe as she hit him. "And he deserved it!" He said, almost pouting, which was completely unlike him. "We'll heal though, it's nothing serious." He said, almost trying to look apologetic before shooting a glare at his sister.

I watched the pair curiously, noticing exactly how the girl had my brother wrapped around her finger, which only proved itself when she reprimanded Kyo. I giggled softly before busting out in laughter. "Looks like someone finally tamed you Kyo!" I said between laughs, even when Kyo shot a glare at me. I knew he wouldn't hurt me, he had a thing against hurting girls.
I looked at the girl and smiled slightly. "It takes a lot of guts to stand up to Kyo. I'm mildly impressed. Not even our parents would try that stunt." I said calmly though still smiling and trying to hold back my laughter at how pathetic Kyo was before glancing at Sai and shaking my head. "Dolt. You should know better." I muttered while eyeing Sai.
I looked back to the girl. "Well, just in case you didn't catch it, my name is Eri, and he's Sai." I said nodding towards Sai. "Kyo is our older brother." I said with a small smile that held a hint of sadness. The last remainders of our line, how sad, oh well. Things like this happened all the time in the vampire world I suppose. "Do you...uh, want to get dressed so you don't have to stand there in a sheet?" I asked calmly, as if it was something you'd ask someone like, how are you. "I'm pretty sure between us we can get the boys to give you a little privacy." I said patting Sai's shoulder. Hey, given the clan I ran this really wasn't any special to me, other than this time it was my brother.

I took a deep breath, wishing I had access to some blood so I could heal faster but I wasn't about to be stupid and take the girl, if Kyo had kicked me for merely looking at the girl he'd kill me for even trying to drink her blood.
I winced as a particularly painful spasm crossed my chest but took a deep breath fighting back the back as I gingerly prodded my chest. At least the bones where in one piece. "Don't worry so much Kyo, you know family is important to me." I said calmly though was that a lie since Eri ran one clan and I was part of another? No, I didn't fit with the Antares, personality wise. Sure I was handsome with my dark black hair and violet eyes, but I wasn't a manwhore. No, I was fiercely loyal, which is why I stayed near Sensation most of the time. Shit, was she was ok? She had better be. Sakon could protect her at least, even if he was an idiot. I grumbled slightly even as Eri introduced us and I blinked in puzzlement before looking at the girl. "So how did you manage to tame him? Every other girl that's showed interest in him he's managed to blow off in some way or another." I said, curious what is was about this girl that made Kyo so, so, so, pathetic, there was no other word, it was pathetic in a good way though I suppose.

I blinked and looked up at Kyo with slightly parted lips before raising an eyebrow at him before shaking my head at him as though he was being childish. What he said didn't deserve an answer until we were alone. That's what I thought anyways and that was how I was going to deal with it. I looked up at Kyo's pouting face and I grinned up at him. "It was called for and he didn't really deserve it." I said as I stood up on tip toes and pressed a kiss to his cheek. "It may be nothing serious, but it wasn't needed." I hugged him tightly, my forehead pressed against his back as I let out a soft sigh of contentment.

The sound of laughter caused me to jump and I looked around Kyo at his sister. She was out right laughing and I couldn't understand why. It was so awkward in my mind. I'd never known someone to laugh at nothing. Or I thought it was nothing anyways. My head tilted to the side slightly when she said something about tamed and him. Then I got it. I grinned wolfishly at her words and leaned around Kyo a bit more. "Oh, you should have been around last night then."I looked up at Kyo with a gleam in my eye. Recalling how I had managed to make us fall on the ground and hit him a few times.

Her question was a God send, but I looked up at Kyo before looking back at Eri. "I think both of us would like to get dressed. We'd both probably feel more comfortable that way." I gave him a sweet smile before diving back behind him. My head turned toward the other male, Sai and I smiled. "Oh, beating him up and getting in his face a bit. I'm not easily scared off. Once I put my foot down, there's no getting me to change my mind about anything." Without really thinking about it, I affectionately ran my fingers along the space along Kyo's hip and side, happy that he had given in.

[Eri]

He shifted slightly, trying to relax, but it was rather hard to do, at least with his little siblings around. He grumbled inwardly wishing they'd just disappear, at least from my home for the time being. Ah well, it wasn't all that bad he figured. Having his entire living family in one spot. Actually that was a rather sad thought, oh well, he couldn't do a thing about it so why bother fighting it?
His head tilted slightly as he watched Ashe over his shoulder, wondering about the girl. She was strange, endearing, but still mildly strange. Though of course perhaps that just fit in with him well. He grunted slightly about the comment of getting dressed, though he kept his comment to himself. When her fingers where near his hips, his back arched and he hissed before turning around to face her. "I wouldn't do that again unless you want to become an exhibitionist in front of my siblings." He murmured, ignoring the hoots from Eri until he heard a strange sound. "Sai, go get her a glass of water and make sure she doesn't choke." His tone softening slightly.

I was so close to simply laughing my head off at the absurdity of this. Kyo? With a human girl? A human girl that wasn't scared of him? One that had faced him down? This was too much. I took a deep breath to calm myself before responding to her. "You made a good catch, even if he's rather strange at times." I said with a smile. Pity he was my brother, not that it mattered now anyways.
I snorted with held-back laughter at their next moves and tried to fight it but failed so that I was laughing, until I started to cough loudly and my eyes were watering. I was drug off by Sai and drank the water gratefully until I was calm and could breathe easily again. "Sorry, that was just too funny coming from Sai." I ignored the puzzled look on Sai's face though, he was such a goofball.

The girl spoke, stating that pure stubborness had won over my brother. How I doubted that was it. Kyo had dealt with stubborn girls before and still had managed to blow them off. Hell I still remembered one girl that had tried to rape him, until she got thrown across a room and through a metal wall, she hadn't come back after that.
I frowned slightly, thinking about my Sensation. I really didn't think she'd cared when I'd confessed my true feelings for her, and that stung me, but I would still remain loyal to her clan. I had been so far, there was no reason to change that.
I blinked at Kyo's statement after he'd hissed and glanced over at Eri when she started to choke. Kyo mentioned getting Eri some water and I nodded before easing myself up and wincing before searching for the kitchen and waiting until Eri was semi-normal again. I merely shrugged, still deep in thoughts about what I should do about Sensation. Should I go back to her? More than likely. Would I be able to confess? No, I wouldn't, I knew that much. I released a growl of frustration at this. I suppose being in the same clan would have to be enough.[/size]

Really, we were shameless creatures, the two of us. The things I managed to do to him and him to me. It was amazing, but awkward when unwanted reactions occurred in public and when he arched his back, I nearly lost the sheet and did when he turned to face me. Color coated my cheeks as I flipped my arms acrossed my chest quickly. I glared up at him when he commented about being exhibitionist in front of his siblings and I dropped my arms placing my hands on my hips. "What are we now then? Mr. I must move and cause my partner to lose the sheet." I said, stepping towards him so that we were now front to front.

I blinked several time before looking around Kyo at his sister. She was choking on laughter and I almost wanted to sigh. I was not in the mood to deal with this. I wanted the bed. I was tired and sore. Kyo should have known all this and the exertion of being around them and have this bit of drama was making me lightheaded. I was human after all and this was not something that I would have normally expected to happen. It wasn't everyday you had people showing up to surprise you, well at least not in human lifestyles. I took a deep breath and calmed myself down. That was just fatigue speaking. I didn't need to be all gloom thoughted. "Strange is okay. Everyone can be strange at times." I said the words in a reverent way, looking down at the ground as my hands moved from my hips make a light circle around Kyo's waist.

Their foot falls caused a sigh to pass my lips. At least they were gone for the moment and I leaned my forehead against Kyo's chest, trying to fight off this wave of exhaustion. I probably should have gone and sat down, then Kyo wouldn't have to see how bone tired I was really. It isn't everyday that something like what happened between Kyo and I happens. I composed myself and lifted my head from his chest, glancing up at him with a small smile before speaking, "So, what was that grunt all about? I know you have something you wanted to say."

[Eri]

Kyo's thoughts were running a little too wild for his own good as he looked down at the girl. He smiled slightly, even when he felt the sheet drop, though he did shift to block her from the view of his siblings, even as her hand moved to shield herself. He grinned slightly. "Perhaps you should think before you act?" He commented, almost drying even has he heard the retreating steps of his siblings and heard them in the kitchen.
He noted her sigh and shifted slightly. "You need to rest. I'll get rid of them, without breaking any bones, unless they struggle." He said with a dry chuckle.
He turned his head, so he wouldn't be shouting into Ashe's ears. "Eri, Sai, come back another time and next time, knock on the door and come sneaking in. And you've got until I count to ten before I'll come out there and throw you out." I could hear them muttering to each other, the chink of a glass being set down before hearing their footsteps leaving.
I smiled softly when she asked me about the grunt. "This is my own place, I am the master, I make the rules, and maybe one of my rules is not giving a damn if I'm caught naked." I said almost sarcastically. It was his place after all so it wasn't that big a deal for him. Plus Eri had seen plenty of her own more than likely, and Sai was the same gender so it wasn't a big deal, at least concerning him.[/size]

I rolled my eyes at him. Now he was going to act like it was all my fault we had no clothes on and leaned away from him with eyebrows raised. "Maybe I was thinking, but just not in the way you wanted me to think." I said, voice curt in tone. I turned my back to him and walked forward, arms crossed over my chest. "You're a jerk." I tossed a look over my shoulder at him, eyebrow raised as if daring him to contradict what I had just said. I came to the edge of the bed and turned before flopping down onto it, letting out a grateful sigh.

Of course, he would notice. He would and then he would have to be Mr. Nice and get rid of what was keeping me from where I wanted to be. I would have just brushed it off and told him I was fine, but he was already shouting out to them to get lost and in a way that was a relief. I always got weird around this time. Like there was something in me that was demanding to get out. It was like I wanted nothing more than to run in a jungle and climb a few trees. Which was just weird. I hated high places with a passion.

Without thinking, I grabbed a pillow and threw it at him. "Master of what?" I teased him flopping onto my back on the bed, arms spread wide. "Hm, I bet tonight is a nice night." I spoke without thinking about what I was saying and I raised my head to look at him, a sheepish grin on my face.

[Eri]

One of Kyo's brows rose, those the chances of it being seen from under his bangs was nearly impossible. He merely shook his head. "At least we were in private, so if you must explore every crevice of my body, I'll kindly ask you to do it when we're not around others, otherwise who knows what'll happen." He said with a soft smile as she walked away towards the bed.
He sniffed slightly at her comment of him being a jerk. "At least I'm not a murderous jerk eh?" He said with a small chuckle. He noted her sigh and shook his head though he kept his comments to himself before digging around the room trying to at least find his pants and top, the cloak was obvious enough to find anyways.
"Do you want anything? I really don't cater to non-vampires." He said with a small smile and he managed to fasten his pants and start the job hunting for his top while waiting for her answer. At least he was being nice.
He frowned slightly when she commented about the night and glanced out the window, not really noting anything different. "I suppose, but I've only ever known the night. Born a creature of the night, doomed to forever be a monstrosity. Though I won't deny that there aren't certain perks to being a vampire." He said calmly, even as asked him what he was master of and threw a pillow at him.
"Why I'm master of this build, if not the occupants." He said with a grin and picking the pillow up and tossing it back at her, making sure to use only a small amount of his strength to throw such a lightweight object, and not hurt her. He grinned slightly as he continued to fish around for his clothes.[/size]

A grin spread over my face and I made a soft yum sound to myself as I sat up once more, stretching my arms over my head, arching my back while my fingers flexed much like a cat would do only I wasn't on my hands and knees doing such a thing. "You know you liked it. Exploring every crevice of each other is something that is called for in a relationship." I nodded my head lightly and grinned at him in a wicked way.

My look softened and I tilted my head to the side ever so slightly. "You could never be a murderous jerk to me. Not even if you told me all the horrible things you've done." I frowned when he went on a clothes hunt. Well, he could get dressed, but I was much to happy being naked to put a layer of cloth over my skin. I wiggled further onto the bed before flopping in an L shape upon it and I could have swearn I made a purring noise as I cuddled into the mattress.

I became more alert when he mentioned food and sat up on an arm with a delighted smile on my face. "Food of any kind would be nice. Just make sure you don't bring back raw meat." I teased him, just to see if he would make a comment on that little bit. I pouted at him after he found his pants. "The veiw was better before you put the pants on." I sighed and stretched out once more, taking over most of the bed space.

With a quick glance out the window, I glanced back at him. "It's a fullmoon. That's what makes it different. Everything is clearer on a fullmoon." My voice was dreamy as I spoke and the pillow he threw back at me managed to whack me in the head. I turned a soft glare on him before grabbing the pillow and cuddling with it. "Since you decided you wanted clothes, I'll just make friends with the pillow." I stuck my tongue out at him before laying my head on the pillow, where is rested against my shoulder and part of my chest.

"Yeah you wish." I said, shaking my head at him before burying my face against the pillow. I peeked up at him with one eye and waited for whatever reaction he might give me.

[Eri]

He chuckled slightly at her comment of exploring each other. He looked up, a wicked glint in his eyes. "If you keep taunting me I'll come over there and explore more." He said, chuckling softly at his joke even as he found his shirt and slipped it on, fighting with the sleeves for a moment until he peered out of the head of the shirt. "Not a word." He growled as he struggled to pull the shirt down and finally succeeded.
He eyed the girl calmly even when she mentioned he couldn't be a murderous jerk to her. He eased towards her and leaned down. "I tried remember? And I'm not such a horrible person, but my ways of doing things aren't exactly nice you know." He muttered before kissing her forehead softly and going to grab his cloak and it swirled as it was settled over his shoulders. Yeah, he loved his cloak.
He eyed her curiously about her comment about the raw meat. "No meat at all then?" He asked curiously, making a mental note to feed from some rich person and take their money. He grinned slightly at her comment. "We can always change that when I get back you know." He said laughing slightly before roaming around the room, looking for his boots.
He grunted slightly when she commented about the full moon before his gaze shot to the window and he sighed heavily. "Means I get to watch out for the mongrels that roam nights like these." He muttered darkly, shooting out a vicious glare into the night. Stupid animals always tried to attack him for no reason.
His attention shifted back to Ashe at her comment about the pillow. He smiled slightly. "But a pillow isn't like me, and I think you'd rather have food compared to just me." He said simply. His lips twitched slightly at her last comment. "Everything that isn't living is under my command, and any humans that happen to be around, save you." He said calmly.
He moved towards the door. "I'll be back soon, with food for you." He said offering a gentle smile before turning and heading out.[/size]

My eyes narrowed and I all put purred the words, "I wouldn't mind that, now would I?" I listened to his soft chuckle and just allowed my mind to wonder and open up to all the sounds. His breathing, the thrum of his voice when he spoke and beat of my heart. It was relaxing, but at the same time it made me want to hunt, like a lioness searching for food for the pride. Odd how one's mind worked when sleep was something that called to them. I bite my lip as I watched his struggle with the shirt and I giggled when he told me not to say anything. Yeah, like that was smart, but I didn't. For once I didn't have a remark to that on my tongue and that was weird, though I didn't notice.

I looked up at him, eyes half closed and lips slightly parted, listening to what he was saying. I sighed and turned my gaze away before smiling. I shrugged at his comment and felt the brush of his lips on my forehead. I had to stop myself from tilting my head back so that our lips would meet and it seemed a battle that was very easily won tonight. It seemed I was off in another world at the moment and it was a paradise. Sure, I was gone in a dream state, but everything else was in the state of just wanting him to take all his clothes off and cuddle with me.

"Meats fine just not raw, but I don't think you know how to cook it." I gave him a wicked smile before turning my gaze back to the window. "We better change that when you get back." There was a soft demanded to my tone, but more of a delighted elation at the fact that we really could change that when he returned. I watched him hunting for his boots and almost thought about jumping off this bed and stalking him. Wait, jumping off the bed? I could easily sit up and stand. I didn't need to jump. I quickly pushed all that away.

His heavy sigh almost had me flinching away and his words really did make me flinch, but why? I wasn't a were. I was human. Or was I? I didn't like this place that my mind kept wanting to go and I bite my lip to keep my scream suppressed behind my lips. No one needed to hear that and I didn't need to make him worry. Not now anyways. There was nothing wrong with me. I was normal. Or as normal as someone like me could be. "That's true. So you better hurry back." I grinned at him in a most devilish way.

"Good. I better not be under your command or you'll find out just how powerful free will is." I teased him, my grin growing wider. I settled back into the bed as he walked out the door and a strange emptiness over came me as he walked out the door. I listened to his footsteps and sighed, even as a strange burning occurred. It just got hotter and hotter and soon it was sharp pain that extended seemingly forever then faded. I let out a gasp of air as if faded and moved to stand up, but it felt like I was moving on four legs rather than one as I stood on the bed I looked over the edge. It seemed so far away. I jumped down, light as a feather and glanced back at myself only to let out a feline yowl of distress.

[Eri]

He was grinning about her remarks, quite prepared to exact his revenge when he got back. He chuckled to himself as he continued onwards, switching for normal to predator even as he looked about. Perhaps he'd taken a couple victims to get the money. He had issues stealing from businesses. He could have sworn he heard a cat but ignored it, figuring it to be some stray in an alley or something.
He dispatched a few foolish people that seemed to begging to die. He filched their money before hunting down the local market that was open all the time, and ignored the looks from other people as he grabbed random things that he hoped Ashe would at least enjoy. He glared at the cashier, almost daring her to make a comment before heading back to his place.
"I hope you like the stuff I picked up." He called out as he set the bags down, though he didn't wait and moved towards the bedroom again. "Ashe?" He asked, peering into the room.[/size]
