Tavern Rp {{ Now Staying Here =D }}

[Takahashi4321]

Picking up his hat from before he said, "Home sweet home". He started to rub his arms a lot, whenever he used his powers, his metabolic reactions in his body all became endothermic. Meaning the cells in his body absorbed all of the heat in the surrounding area. Making the air around him extremely cold, usually a mild reaction but the less stored demonic energy he had, the more his body had to work. His face turned was turning brighter as his sensory nerves around him felt the extremely cold air. Then he walked over to Mika and grabbed her hand making his hand warm to touch but his air around him so cold that condensation was beginning to form in the air around him. Then he wall jumped between the walls in the alley and made his way to the ground catching Mika while she was sideways. He said as he put her on her own two feet, "although we Cromwells can mimic humans very well.....we certainly aren't humans". Then he started to walk towards the tavern, he couldn't wait to go sit by the fire.

Mika tilted her head curiously as he began rubbing his arms, she wondered if he had hurt them useing that power. She was about to ask when he took her hand, it was freezing to the touch, then jumped down with her she landed in his arms in the alley. She shivered slightly, it wasn't just taka that air around him was cold too. "although we Cromwells can mimic humans very well.....we certainly aren't humans". he said as he set her down, she didn't exactly understand what he ment, but that seemed to be his explination. She followed closely behind him, she placed the palms of her hands together, she rubbed them together infusing the action with her fire ability. A patch of sheer yellow emarged, she added more power till it was the right size, guesturing with her fingers the "material" wrapped it'self around taka covering him from his hat all the way down to the ground, instantly creating a barrier of heat.
It was a simple task she had mainly used to allow herself and nicki to stay out in the snow longer during winter, only the wearer of the "material" could feel it's effects, it also didn't interfear with the wearers taskes, and usually only the caster could see the material itself. She was unsure if he would be able to see it, most of the more powerful deamons could see a variety of spell, castings, enchantments, and such, though she wasn't entirly sure of his training in that area.
She stopped as they entered the doorway, just taking in the familar sight. She had hardly been gone from it half a day and yet it felt as if she was returning from months of absents. Chester ran out from under the chairs by the fire brushing past taka's legs before pawing in a pitiful manor at mika's leg, his way of letting her know he was hungry. She smiled down at him and went to the back geting him a plate of food and setting it down on the counter. The familiar routine having a calming effect. "Taka can I get you something to drink?"

[Takahashi4321]

Takahashi was walking and suddenly everything he seen had a slightly yellow color to it. He rubbed his eyes to make sure they weren't damaged or anything but indeed everything was yellow. But suddenly the air around him was very warm and he almost melted where he stood. He then looked at Mika, afraid to touch her on account he didn't quite know what the material would do but he said, "I don't quite know what you have done but thank you.....so much". He did a test touch before sitting on the couch to see if it would burn anything but thankfully the heat was mild enough to where it didn't. He suddenly wished he knew this ability. Then he sat down and when offered a drink, he said, "no thanks. I feel warm enough already", hinting at the reason why he drank occasionally.

[mimisosa]

Mika withheld a laugh as he paused and rubbed his eyes, that answered her questiond about if he could see it or not. "You're welcome, Just let me know when you want me to take it off." She said. "I can show you how to do it some time if you want." He turned down the offered drink, adding a something about being warm enough. It sparked her curiousity did taka always feel cold? She dissapeared for a few minutes into the back and returning with two mugs of hot chocolate, she put one on a table next to him and sat down with hers on the other end of the couch. She leaned back, watching the fire and casting side glances at him when she thought he wasn't looking.

[Takahashi4321]

Takahashi smiled as she sat the mug next to him. In truth, he wasn't all that thirsty but he was still cold, so the hot drink was all he needed. He smiled and said, "thank you". Takahashi nodded and said, "Unfortunately, whenever I use my demonic power, it makes the things the air and other things around me very cold as my body tries to absorb the power around me unless I have stored power within me whereas the reaction is very small, so using the power to make me warmer, would in fact do nothing as it is my own power going into the fire. I would just be an equal exchange". He took a sip and he could feel the heat radiate down to his stomach, it was an absolutely wonderful night.

[mimisosa]

Mika listened to his explination, he needed a certain amount of power to keep his body satified other wise it acted as a sponge and absorbed any surrounding power. She had never heard of that before in her clan it was so easy to restore power as long as there was a sourse of heat or fire nearby. She made a few more guestures with her hand putting an extra energy burst into the casting. She stared down into her mug for a few minutes. "Taka, thank you for coming after me." she said quietly. She turned to look at him, "If you hadn't I probably wouldn't have made it back here." She paused, words of power and promise were sacred with in her clan, once spoken or promised. Once promised or spoken they would be bound to it until it was fullfilled or death. "I am in your debt." She stood and bowed before him, her dagger pulsed brightly binding her to her oath.

[Takahashi4321]

Takahashi chuckled a bit and said, "Aww, you don't have to say things like that. Trust me, there will be times when I screw up and I'll need help. I know without even saying it you'll be there, and thus I'll do the same for you". He didn't know the severity of what she had said and just thought it just words. He continued, "Also, I'm sure you would have made it back, maybe not as quick, but you would have gotten here eventually". His power was returning rather quickly because of the film and after a while his body was going to start storing some of it. He took another sip of the chocolate and indulged in the unhealthy greatness it was. It was a cool night and things were finally starting to settle down. Finally he was going to be able to get some rest.....without thinking of the things that had been plaguing him for the last few days.

[mimisosa]

Mika could tell from his chuckle that he didn't understand what she had just done. She chose not to inform him of it either, He didn't understand what his guesture had done he had saved her from both physical and mental damage or loss. She was in his debt now and tied to it through the clan, willing and ready to fight by his side and give up her life for him if it was necissary. That was the power of a lietho clans oath, they were never given lightly. If he had known she was sure that he would protest and challenge it, so she kept silent letting him believe they were simple words.
She rose from her bow and sat back on the couch, sipping her hot chocolate. She thought about everything she would have to prepare for come morning, she would have to arrange affairs, plan the funerals, and take over temporaraly until she was rightfull named the new clan leader, the idea of it was already making her tired. There was one thing nagging at her, something she normally wouldn't think of but the situation called for it. With a deep sigh she spoke to taka once more. "Taka, I apologize but I must ask a favor reguarding your families services." she said.

[Takahashi4321]

Takahashi smiled and said, "anything you need, just ask". This was a rare sight, she was actually asking for a favor. He listened interested as to what she might ask.

[mimisosa]

"When I figure out who shot nicki, I would like to hire someone to take care of that person, and to make sure he knows what for." She said in a tone serious and business like, very out of character. "I know that compared to most of the cromwells commisions this one is trivial, but I can pay the rates. . ." She finished. She the hand that wasn't holding her mug was balled up the claws piercing into her skin. She hated asking, it was normally something she would take care of herself, but she didn't trust herself or her clan members to duel out only justice. She knew if she or the clan got their hands on that man it would be for pure cold blooded revenge, justice and rightciousness be damned, and She couldn't allow that type corruption to happen.

[Takahashi4321]

Takahashi sat in silence for a minute, he took a sip from his cup and chuckled and playfully said, "ah, just put it on that debt you owe". Takahashi chuckled but then it came to a stop as he seen the intensity in her face. She was serious, she wanted this man gone. His smile was wiped away and he continued on in a serious matter, "I'll lend my full hand to you in this affair, but I need you to understand something. If we gather intel about the man, and if the orders came from an organization.......we won't stop with just the man, as it is a hazard to do so.....we'll have to take care of whole group. As long as you understand this, I will lend our services to you".

[mimisosa]

Mika looked at him taking in what it would mean to hire his services. She stared at the fire, an inner war raged with in her. She wanted the man who killed her brother to pay for his actions, an eye for an eye even if it ment the possible murder of another clan. As it was most unlikely the man was a rouge. Yet her rational side saw the double edged sword, justice at the price of innocents. It was a decision that had no easy answer.
"I understand the conditions." she said in a defeated voice. She had given in to her selfish desires, though she tried justifying it by caliming it was for the sake of the clan. It was geting rid of enemies and possible threats and attacks of the future. But deep down she knew the real reaon and she hated herself for it.

[Takahashi4321]

Takahashi nodded and stood up and said, "I'll inform my family of your decision". He stood up still enjoying the comfort of the film. Then he stood up and walked out of the tavern into the pub in which he went to when those vampires started to attack Jack. Then he wasn't seen again for about two hours.

[mimisosa]

"Thank you Taka." She said quietly as he left. She sat for a while longer, before the silence over welmed her, She stood and took the mugs and stray glasses from around the room taking them to the back to be washed and put away once she was done with that she returned to the front room to finishe her closing duties. She heard the thin man approach, with his particular walk she could pinpoint him out of a crowd. "I'm sorry Dust but I can't take on any assinments for a time." she said not even glancing up from her work. "Now now, I have heard the news, I have more respect then you give me credit for. Though I do have something that requires special skills if you. . . I was only kidding." he finished as she shot him a look. "But in all seriousness I came to deliever a message and provide my condolences for the loss." He said with what passed as a paind look for him. He reached into his coat and pulled out a sealed scroll with the clans crest visable on the wax, a triumphant figure dagger raised with a pheonix bursting into flame behind him. Reluctantly she held out her hand already knowing what it was. Dust tilted his head at her. "I thought this news would be more uplifting for you miss. Not only renstated into the clan but over taking it as well..., as a bonus you shall be able to remove the one flaw on your face." He said with a light chuckle. Mika unravled the scroll reading the contents of the initiation, where , when and what wuld be required. With a special note stating that she would have to remove the mark prior to the assmbly. She tossed it on the counter with disgust. It was the last thing she wanted, but it was her duty, her hands were tied. Dust swayed from side to side his type were not good with concern or consouling of others. Mika waved him off, "I understand that you mean well." She said. Dust sprung up a grin spreading across his face, "Very good, well I must be off, duities and such. . ." he muttered with a wicked grin, and a wave of his thin fingers he left. Mika finished closeing turned around the sign then curled up in one of the chairs by the fire

[Takahashi4321]

Takahashi came out with Claude beside him. Claude started, "So when is it to be done?". Takahashi looked outward and responded, "I don't know Claude.......depending on if she gives us a name......all I'm doing at the moment is putting the ball in motion". Claude nodded and he said, "You do know this is irreversible....whether she wants to or not, that man is dead". Takahashi nodded and said, "yea, but don't get too eager with it, I think this person wants to find out who did it herself". Claude understood and said, "I'll create a gap from intel for about a day or two, but you know that's all I can give her". He nodded and said, "Thanks a bunch for that". Claude put his hand on his shoulder and said, "No problem, what friends are for". Takahashi looked at him and said, "So, how is it coming.......with the recent assignment?". Claude looked at him with a weary face and said, "I can tell you this much, whoever took out those men. Were probably from the Renault family. And we all know what that means". Takahashi nodded and said, "I guess it's time for a full scale takedown then. They had been warned before......I guess that means me and you are going to hit the saddle again". Claude chuckled and took his hand off his shoulder and said, "Just like the old days". Takahashi didn't chuckle and said solemnly, "yea, just like the old days". Takahashi took off his left glove and showed it to Claude and he stopped laughing as well and he said, "Takahashi.......I hope.....you stay well". Then Takahashi slipped his glove back on his his hand and left and went back inside the tavern.

He came back inside and the atmosphere had died down a lot from earlier, it was almost as though the silence was haunting the place at the moment. He came in and sat down in a chair by the fire and he said, "Well, it's done. Claude said, he can give you about two days to find the killer on your own. Then after that marker, my family will take over the intelligence, if you would like the satisfaction of finding him yourself".
