"I Just Wanna Watch The
Whole World Burn"


Walking with her he just turned his head and looked at the side windows, various thing were laid out in an elegant style and others just seemed to be pushed into the window for those common window shoppers. As they walked she didn't look at him, though just went along with what they were trying to accomplish on this little side venture. "A question of yours?" he mused, his mind raced with what she could ask and whether or not he could be honest in his response. "Well...yes go ahead." He spoke as they continued to walk down the long stretch of road, his bare feet still smacking against the ground and cobble stone roads. Metal's body just stayed in pace with Onyx's as they continued their stride, his ears waiting for her question and his eyes looking for something.

                    Upon hearing his agreement she would proceed to answer his question as they came to a halt. Her left hand rummaged through a rack of hats as her right arm was still hooked around his left.
                    "I would like acceptance yes. In a perfect world, i would love for me and those aboard my ship to be accepted for who they are as well as what they are. Do I think I will get it? That's tough to say. All I know is that we will do what we must and try to not make the same mistake again that was Lockeport." quite honest of her.

                    She selected a costumey pirate hat up off of the rack, turned and set it a top of Metal's head. We're not going to get into her thoughts regarding this at this moment. Lets just say, he should so buy that hat. Onyx still had that same devil-may-care side smirk to which she gave him.
                    "What is your real name?" this would now make this...the...third? Fourth? Time asking him this very question.

When they came to a stop he turned his body to face her, his arm barely slipping from hers as she began to look through what was left on the rack. Slowly but surely she told him what she wanted, and that in a perfect world she could get what she wanted. Well they both knew this world was far from perfect but who knew with this new town. And ah yes th lockeport problem. Metal had awoken through the middle of the conflict only to be dragged into the issue because of Onyx wanting his help in a delicate situation. Needless to say he helped though he hadn't wanted too, but that was besides the point. If they only both knew that it was actual Metal who had caused that whole thing, maybe they wouldn't be walking together right now. She then placed the hat upon his head while his eyes rolled up, the pirate attire just wasn't for him, or at least he'd have to put his own spin on things for it. "Mhmm..." He stared at her, and wished he could just run off like he could when he had been a vampire. "Well....yeah My name." He smirked and reached up grabbing the hat and placing it back on the rack. "It's" He paused for a moment and just stared around for a moment, it was a bit silly now considering he went by Metal since...forever. "Aoishi" He turned his head and stared hard down the street, hoping the moment would be over soon.

                    His body language screamed that he was uncomfortable but why? Was he embarrassed of his name? Were there...things he wanted to forget? She could relate to be certain but, this reaction only made her more curious now.

                    "Hey..." she said softly, lowly, almost like a mother to a child or lover to lover when try to console one another. He would feel a tug to his arm that meant: Look at me
                    Whether he did or not, was I guess, irrelevant. Onyx slipped her arm from his and took a step away from him. She would then give him a proper bow, something that, if his memory still served him, he would recognized as they were of the same background-ish.
                    "Aoishi...I'm Yumiko" she said in greeting as though meeting him for the first time.

                    Feeling his energy, so uncomfortable she reached out snatching up his arm again, giggled and pulled him a long.
                    "C'mon, don't look like being with me hurts." oni saw a young boy selling tourist pamphlets.

Standing there he listened to her as she tried to comfort him it seemed. her tone and the way she tried to grab his attention, and it worked to be honest. When she spoke to him and then released his arm he watched her appear before him standing right there before leaning down somewhat into a bow. He stared and realized that her background was from the same as his, though he had known that already, or at least had gathered as much due to her like of a certain culture. Looking as her though she spoke his name and then her name. Looking at her his head turned for a moment and smirked somewhat. 'Yumiko.' His mind spoke twice before looking back at her. But not before being grabbed and dragged down the street. "Hey wait a second...where are we going."

                    "Map!" she pointed up ahead of her to the young boy selling the tourist pamphlets.

                    "Shopping will have to wait. I want to explore far larger than this. I want to scout this island and we need to start someplace." she told him.

                    Reaching the boy oni would purchase a pamphlet. Opening it up would reveal the thing she had been looking for.
                    'Ah ha! Here.' she said pointing to the MAP

                    "Look at this! Cliffs and sand for most of port but to the east...forest and mountains! North will take up into the area known as 'main'. Let's go east!" she said folding up the pamphlet now. Oni grabbed his hand and pulled him along with her.

Whole World Burn"


Metal had stopped with the woman as she screamed about wanting a map. The look on the young boys face seemed rather distraught at the spectacle that Onyx had made, well at least shouting out the word Map. A faint snicker came from him, doing his best he turned his head allowing the sound to carry away from her as well as not to let her see that he was laughing at her. "Yes a Pirate Indeed." He finally spoke as she took a map from the young lad. He nodded to the boy as Onyx paid him, though his face soured somewhat as she told him that shopping would have to wait, something that he wasn't about to let happen. He most certainly was going shopping maybe not for what she thought he might want. Which was usually clothes; so he was hoping to give her a small surprise. Breaking his train of thought he looked to her as she gawked and awed at the map, talking about the layout of the map and how sand and cliffs encircled most of the port, though the east side seemed to have caught her eye. Forest it was something they rarely got to see on most of their ventures, but he understood why she might want a different lay of the land than the norm.

Metal took this time to gander at the map as she held it out, she herself was the first to take a gaze at it, though Metal was a little lost as to where the hell they were. Metal hadn't remembered walking over any bridge so he assumed that they were still port side. Looking over it for a moment he raised his brow and then leaned forward, some of the black strands of hair flowed forward and got into his line of sight, though he still had the same puzzled look on his face. "Wait...where are we?" He asked, his left hand came from his side and pointed along the map his right arm was still free as she was occupied with holding the map. "We're....here?" He pointed to the middle of the part of the labeled area 'PORT'. "So wait, are we going to the 'Main' area or are we going this way..." His finger trailed from the middle area of the port part of the map and went to the side where it looked like cliffs and more docking areas. If so then why didn't they just walk down the beach or at least down the 'board walk'. He would wait for her to move, while he escorted her through the cities, with his own sneaky motive.

Moving with her as she hurried them along his eyes keep sharp to the sides making sure that what he was looking for didn't pass him by, after all there had to be somewhere people obtained their collectibles as it were. A small sigh, he could see that they were ending the main road and that they would soon be headed for the wooded area of the port. But as luck would have it one of the last few places along this side of town some of the pictures within the window caught his eye he recognized some of the weird and strange designs yes this was most assuredly the place he'd been looking for. "Wait wait wait...hang on a second." He tugged her arm lightly, his head turned to her as his left hand went down into one of his pockets, a small vial in his grasp as he stood there, he didn't tell her that he had it, but it was something he almost always had with him, at least when looking through a new area. "Can we? Or at least can I?" He pointed to the door, a small sign stuck into each window of the shop, as well as the window of the door. "I need something new done." he spoke and then slowly pulled away from her grasp, his left hand came out of his pocket letting the vial drop down to the bottom of his pocket before reaching out and rolling up his right arm sleeve. He showed her the same thing she knew was their, the designs and markings of vampires as well as demonic symbols. It trailed up his his forearm all the way up disappearing under the dark fabric of his shirt. "...Please?" He asked.

Ailsa Graystone // Wearing //


Ailsa smiled at Jenica, feeling comforted by her assurances.

It was quickly snapped off her face though when Jenica put her hands on her shoulder and then jumped on her back! Ailsa froze for a second before she praised her strength for keeping her upright.

Ailsa pushed away her embarrassment, and began to walk forward. The piggy back ride wasn't something she had expected at all, but she could work with it! She listened to Jenica describe what she wanted to do, and smiled. "I think you will look great with purple hair. I would say I could extend you hair with a spell but... last time I tried it on myself I caught Celeste's hair on fire."

It was a good idea to go to a professional instead of the probable Wild Mage.

When Jenica got a little over excited and nearly fell, Ailsa tried to keep her balance. She nearly fell but managed to keep herself upright. She gave Jenica a nervous grin.

"I think I need to work on my balance more." This was said with a nervous laugh.

                    As the two made their way through the streets, heading to the east as Onyx had intended to go, metal had stopped them. She was very confused at first as she looked between the vial and his face. He was asking for...something, even saying 'please'. Out of everything it was his manner of speech that was throwing her off. Her honey brown hues flicked past his shoulder and to the neon glowing sign. He wanted to get...inked?

                    "oh!...yeah...okay, sure." she said completely taken off guard.

                    The two would enter the parlor, she was curious as to what he was going to get added. Her eye's looked about the inside at all the art, examples, and awards the artists had won over time.
                    "What are you thinking of getting?"

                    Oni had never had the opportunity to get anything done for herself. She became an immortal with which her body rejected anything foreign. The ink wouldn't hold to her skin. The thought crossed her mind as to what she might get done.

"HAHAH! Oh my gosh! That's terrible, really? On fire? She must have been soooo mad at you!?" thought, the mere fact that extending ones hair by magical means was still pretty friggen cool.

When Ailsa made her comment about her balance Jenica frowned a little.
"Well either that or I need to seriously slow down on the krispy kreme's." and that prompted her to slide down and off of Ailsa.

She got to thinking though and at about this point Jenica didn't feel like she had a whole lot to lose.
"I trust you, I want you to try and make my hair longer. That way all i would have to do is color it at the salon today!" she stopped and gently grabbed Ailsa's hand.

"Please?"

Walking into the door the bell above the door clanged against the bell and allowed a small ringing noise to echo throughout the place. They walked around the inside for a moment or so before some man came out from behind a curtain and walked around the counter top. He slide his hand down along the counter and spoke out to the two of them. "Hey, what can I do for the two of you?" Metal nudged Onyx a bit as he released from her arm, pulling away before walking over towards the wall looking at the designs, he already knew what he was going to get but he wanted to wait and sort of surprise Onyx. Turning though as she asked him, along with the tattoo artist Metal smirked. "Oh I got a special request, but I can't let her see the work until it's done." He pointed towards Onyx as she was gawking at the awards and designs as well. Metal turned on the base of his heels and moved towards the counter where the guy was, within doing so the other man spoke out once more. "Hehe, getting something done for your girl?" He asked. Metal's brow raised up a bit which caused his head to turn looking back at onyx as seh continued to walk around. "....Umm yeah sure." He rolled his eyes a bit and then reached down into his pocket. "But I need you to put this in the Ink." He pulled his hand out placing the vial down along the counter top. The liquid in it was a dark blue color, it almost looked like blue mercury. "You know I'm not really allo-..." He was cut off by Metal. "She'll throw in an extra one hundred dollars." Metal shrugged. "Deal!" he smacked his hand down across the counter top and smiled, swiping the vial up as he turned showing them the way to the inking area. "Come with me guys." He would walk out from behind the counter, and walk off towards one of the corners of the room. "So where do you want this special tattoo?" He asked setting the vial down along a small bench of pens and needles. "Along the top of my back." Metal spoke lifting his shirt up from the base of his waistline and pulled his shirt up. "Onyx do you have something to hold my hair up, or at least tie into a pony tail?"

                    "She'll throw in an extra one hundred dollars."

                    'Wait, what!?' Onyx' head snapped to the direction of Metal as he had spoke. Her eye's flicked between the artist and Metal. "Hey I-nyurmm..." she was cut off by both of them as they pretty much continued to talk over her.

                    Out of sheer anger she followed them, fuming at the idea that Metal didn't correct the guy when he made the comment about him getting something done for 'his girl'. Onyx however didn't protest to paying the extra hundred on account of the fact that she too wanted to know what the contents of that vial was. Apparently he was going to be getting something done along the top of his back. Metal then asked if she had anything to put his hair up with. For a moment onyx looked about herself giving a quick pat down before looking to her wrist. She wore a black elastic to which she took off and moved over to his side. Oni took a hold of his hair and rather quickly twisted and rolled his hair up into a messy bun. All of that hair needed to be clean off of his back and a pony tail just wouldn't suffice. Taking a few steps back she folded her arms to her chest and leaned her a** up against the counter, watching.

Metal waited for her to finish putting his hair up before turning to the man while walking up to him. He ripped a piece of paper from the man's sketch book that was laying along the table and wrote out a couple of things, showing the man what he wanted. The man nodded and took the vial from Metal and began to pour the contents into the ink himself. This was all done because of the things Metal had wrote down, as well as what he wanted across his back. The mans tared looking as he already could see the small wings and then words that rest just in between Metal's shoulder blades. He smirked and then began to do the outline of what Metal wanted. "So what are you getting?" He asked her though it was to mainly tease her. Metal was turned around his hands and arms resting against the head of the seat as he laid forward his eyes staring at Onyx for now while he waited for the man to finish the out line of the tattoo. And obviously he was positioned in a place where Onyx couldn't slip back behind him, he did want it to be a surprise.

                    Onyx was quite content to stay right where she was. Her position never changed as her eye's connected and rested to Metal's blues. When he asked what she would be getting done she scoffed a laugh. It was then that her position broke. Her arms came away from her body as her left hand came up in that: 'Whoa, hold on there'- gesture.

                    "Me? I am not going to get anything done!" her eye's left him to wander about the images around the room.

                    "What are YOU getting done?" her eye's came back to him once more.

Resting there Metal listened to her as she began to retract and tell him that she wasn't going to get anything, though as she looked around the room he smirked and tried not to smile, he didn't want the guy to have to start over. As time went by the man finally finished the outline. Using two mirrors he showed Metal as Metal glanced at it turning and tilting the mirror to see the design he nodded and then the man began to start the pen. Metal laid his head down to the side and closed his eyes for a moment, he waited as the man began to ink his skin placing a new tattoo onto his back. The buzzing noise echoed somewhat throughout the shop as the two of them waited. Metal's head raised slightly from it's lowered position to watch Onyx, he wondered if she was bored, cause the piece he was getting was going to probably take all day. His eyes closed once more as he sighed, he could feel the needle shooting back and forth into his skin applying the ink into his skin. Finally after a while, more so like five hours the man was starting the finishing touches Metal's back ached a little bit and he knew that he would have to rest quiet a bit to make sure that it didn't get infected, as well as kept the direct sunlight from it. "There all done." He spoke the pen touched his skin just a couple of times after that before being laid down along the small bench area. Slowly standing the ma helped him from the chair he'd he sprawled out along. His body twisted a bit stretching as he was finally able to move. "Ahhh christ my body aches." He complained but soon took the two mirrors and stared at his back smiling as he did so. He looked over to Onyx who was still looking around the shop. "Hey you woman." He called out to her. "What do you think?" He turned around pulling his hair up a little bit more from the messy bun. She'd seen a red coloration around the letters that stretched across his upper back and shoulders spelling out the word. 'ASPER'.
