In the basement around the bend from Mercy's room I have decided to make my place of repose. I have chosen this particular spot to allow Miss Mercy as well as myself some privacy. Upon entering you notice that this particular room has a lofty ceiling with one small window just above ground level on the far wall. A little pot with ivy sits on the sill and the vine grows to cover most of the wall nearly reaching the floor. Around the room there are strategic dark shelves each holding a thick off white candle to help with lighting. Strips of thick brown, green, and gold tapestry hang in intervals on the walls around the candles to give the room more color. Against the left wall there is a four post, queen size bed made of dark stained wood. It has gold silk sheets and pillows with a deep green velvet comforter. Next to the bed there is a likewise dark stained table with a small drawer. On the table there is a wooden mat that holds an assortment of candles for reading in bed. On the far side of the bed there is a dark stained chair upholstered in gold with a green throw pillow. On the ivy covered wall, a likewise upholstered sofa sits with two green pillows. The ivy grows around the different candle shelves in an unnatural pattern. In the right corner a small circular stand sits full of staffs and Arni all of which look natural. They are of different shapes and sizes and some look curved as if the wood were truly twisted that way. On the right wall there is a mostly empty bookshelf. The far left cubby has two books that look like personal journals and one black leather bound, gold trim copy of The Complete Works of William Shakespeare. Next to the bookshelf there is a small cabinet with the small amount of clothes and personal effects I have left.

*She flicks her wrists and lightning shoots from her fingertips lighting all of the candles in the room. She walks over to the cabinet and changes into a comfortable, black cotton dress. She folds her leathers and cloak neatly, and tucks them away in the cabinet until she needs them again. She then turns and unceremoniously flings herself onto the bed relishing the feeling of actually having a bed to lay in.*

*After resting for a few minutes she rolls over on her stomach and opens the little drawer on her bedside table. She removes a worn leather journal and pen and begins to write. She bends her knees and swings her legs back and forth hiking up her dress a little on her thighs. She stops writing occasionally to chew gently on the end of her pen.*

*She swung herself around to a sitting position and slid her journal and pen back into the drawer on the bedside table. She stood up and straightened her dress, then called to the door.* You may come in!

Eric opened the door and strolled in closing the door behind him. He walked to the edge of the bed and stood there looking at Alice. "Hello Alice. How are you doing? I wanted to talk to you because I would like to know you better. I am not saying that I like you or love you, but that I feel only a pull to you. I would have searched your mind for what I needed but I find this way a bit better."

*looking Eric dead in the eye* I'm fine. I appreciate you approaching it this way instead of assaulting my mind. I also appreciate your bluntness for I do not know if I care for you either. There is no harm in getting to know one another. Would you care to sit? *she motioned with a sweep of her arm to the couch or the chairs.*

"Thank you." He decided to sit on the couch. "So tell me about yourself."

*moves around the bed and sits on the foot across from Eric folding her hands in her lap* Well, it's a surprisingly long story considering that I am quite young. So here are the basics. I am 151, I am a "half-breed" being part human, nymph, and now vampire, I am an assassin, and I am here now because all of my allies, and friends are officially extinct. I find it very nice here, I am especially fond of Miss Mercy, (as it appears you are too) and, Lady has been very kind and allowed me to stay. *she shrugs* I am quite a bore. I have heard a little about you and I am aware of your ability to enter others' minds. What else would you like me to know? *she looks around a little embarassedly* I apologize for the lack of refreshments, I was resting and haven't taken the time to make any yet...

*Mercy knocked on the door then walked in smiling politely before rushing forward and hugging Alice before glancing around.* "I am so happy that you chose to set up bearings here, your not that far away niether. . . . . . I do liek to play my music loud sometimes and if it bothers you. . . . . well you can ask me to turn it down I suppose, but really who doesn't love Alkan and Trotchovsky." *She shrugged then stepped back letting go of the hug and smiled taking note of Eric.* "Hello." *She bowed her head ever so slightly as she did to everyone.*

*She laughed heartily and pulled Mercy onto her lap in an affectionate manner, not forgetting how dangerous she was.* I'm sure it won't bother me, I'll probably just dance around to it in here. I'm so glad you came to visit! Eric was just going to tell me a little about himself. *she smiled radiantly, truly happy to have visitors.*

*Mercy merely smiled since she was so used to being manhandled by her friends and wrapped her arms around Alice's neck. Turning her head she smiled over to Eric syrupy sweet.* "Well then young Eric. . . " *She said his name with a bit of a bite to the edge of it.* "Please do not let me interupt. . . . . . " *Her eyes shown with somewhat of a challenge then she leaned forward and kissed Alice's cheek recklessly.*

A twitch began to tear a smile at Eric's mouth. "Well since your here Mercy..." He nodded in response to her greeting "I am a little over three thousand two hundred and twenty three, I am the last of my own clan. It was destroyed about a century ago. I have been a slight wanderer since. Someone had been sending assassins after me continuously until I got near here and I decided to stay here and eventually one day try and rebuild my once thriving clan. My abilities and knowledge are somewhat of an accident. I dont remember how I became "special" as the angel, Voro puts it. But i intend to fully use what I have. I have been able to control much of what I have and know. some things still needing some work. But that hardly makes me weak. Once I got here, I had noticed Mercy first and I continue to feel that way. I hadnt really had a chance to see how Mercy feels yet and I am sure..." turning to Mercy. "That you arent thrilled about me either."

"Do not. . . . . . Eric, Do not assume that you know how I feel. . . . . . I will not pretend to be sorry for your loss of clan, since I was once out for killing all the pure bloods other then my own clan, it is quite nice to hear." *She giggled and nuzzled Alice's neck before pulling back and looking over at him.* "I . . . . . well really I have no problem with you personally, only that I think you may have the idea that you are more powerful then me. . . . and I honestly coudl care less. . . . I want to make somthing clear right now that I have not said quite yet." *She got up and walked over letting her aura to slip out slightly as she rubbed his cheek sweetly.* "I do not put up with anyone. . . . no matter how great they claim to be, I have over turned countless empires and slaughtered more people then you coudl imagine and if you step out of line while you are within my walls, and yes they are technically my lovely lavender's but be warned now that I reside here and I do not follow rules as well as others. . . . my hand has been known to . . . slip. . ." *She walked behind him and ran her hand across his neck sensually.* "Once or twice. . . . . . . . . We may be friends, just. . . . . . . . " *She walked back over and sat on Alice's lap again.* "don't. . . . . . . piss me off."

*She raised an eyebrow at the obvious tension between her two new friends, then tries to lighten the mood.* If you two can't play nice I'm going to have to separate you... Now, Eric, are you saying that you aren't thrilled about Mercy? I sense quite the opposite, but maybe I am mistaken.
