He chuckled a little and held out his hands as if to ask her if he coudl summon her. Although Kobira would often come when she wasnt wanted, like when Nique and him wanted to be alone or when the mood did not suit there being a demon of any type to be around.
Mhmm guess you will just have to wait and see.

Alexiel nodded, giving him permission to summon his companion. "Go ahead, so long as she doesn't bother the other animals, they'll ignore her." She leaned back against the counter, waiting to see what was to come.

Rubieus nodded and clapped both his hands together, it was a signal to let his companion know that it was ok for her to appear, he would sometimes strike a wall with an open hand or another flat surface, but the place was crowded and his hands worked just as well.
Kobira! Come.
It was suddenly very hot, not enough to burn things but the temperature was noticeable and sweatdrops began to appear on his forehead as a small portal appeared in front of him within the space where he had just clapped his hands together. Sudden a small ball of fire appeared which then leapted onto his shoulder and the heat and portal vanished, the ball of fire flared up for a moment before dimming slightly. It was hard to tell she was anything but a fire elemental but as they watched, the cat's form seem to change in order to give off the illusion that she was indeed a feline, her fiery fangs and blood thirsty eyes however were very catlike and held no fire like element to them.
Hellooo masterrrr, you sumoned meee?
Whenever she spoke, the flames about her would crackle or hiss as if the voice did not come from her mouth but of her body.

Alex pushed herself away from the counter and her feet closed the rest of the distance between herself and Rubieus. She seemed to have no fear of the creature before as she got as close as she could without invading personal space. "Exquisite." Her eyes were wide and she seemed entranced by the fiery feline.
"Elementals aren't my specialty. They're somewhat different than most of the magical and non-magical creatures I deal with, but I've had some experience with them." She paused for a moment, taking another good look at the feline. "I've seen very few elementals with forms like this..."

She is what's known as a multi form elemental, as you can see she is in her fire state, which she is usually in when she teleports to a new place, consider it her offensive instincts. Her body can also harden and turn black like molten lava which acts like armor. She is very gentle though as long as you don't upset her.
Why do you speak as if I am not heree?
Sorry, Kobira, Lady Alexiel. She is an old friend. Please don't make a mess of things.
The feline glared at the woman and she purred deep inside of her core before responding.
Does Nique know about her?
oh and she is also very protective.

Alex seemed fascinated by the animal. "It is a pleasure to meet you Kobira. As for your concerns, I assure you that I know Rubieus only in a professional and friendly manner. He was my body guard a long time ago." Alex couldn't help but smile at the cat's suspicion She'd never really shown a romantic interest in anyone, much less had a relationship, of course the cat didn't know that.

Body guard huh? I remeber you nowww
Rubieus smiled and motioned her onto his hand and the feline obeyed without question, before she vanished in smoke, she purred loudly which seemed to cover both of them in warmth.
Forgive me, she can be quite rude at times. So, a pet store huh? How come you moved?

Alexiel shrugged lightly as she leaned against the counter once more. "I don't know really. I was always fond of animals and this seemed like the perfect job for me. Latent being a newer town than all the others, it just seemed like the perfect place to set up shop." She frowned slightly. "Not far enough away from trouble though it seems."

Rubieus could understand the desire to do something you enjoyed and even more if you could make a profit from it, but he had no clue what kind of trouble she was referring to, having just walked a few blocks to get there, he had not seen anything that could be construed as such.
What.. sort of trouble?

"Nothing I can't handle, I'm sure." Alex skirted around the answer to the question. "Just the usual, you know. Threats that can end the world, comes up all the time around here." While true, it wasn't the trouble she was actually thinking about. He didn't need to know that though, couldn't know that. She would forfeit her life if she told the truth.

Well alright then, you know although I am no longer in comission with anyone, I'd gladly come by this place each day just to check up on things, if of course you don't mind.
Rubieus gave her a look of sincerity, it was true that you never knew who could hear you speak but sometimes you just had to trust that the other person heard the unspoken words you said.

"I'd appreciate that. There's a younger girl who stays here with me. I worry about her when I'm off on business." Speaking of business, her eyes seemed to wonder as if she was lost in thought. She would have to take another business trip soon. The HoH tournament was in progress and the man she needed to find was a competitor. He was out in the open now, easy to find, and if she didn't get him while he was, she had no hope of living long enough to get her life back.

He smiled and nodded giving her a reassurring pat on her shoulder as he looked about the place. He had things to do as well but made a mental note to come by the next day to check on them both, and perhaps get a chance to meet this mysterious girl.
Alright then, I have to go now though, still have errands to run but ll come by tomorrow say noonish and we can all have something to eat, we meaning the three of us, how does that sound?

"Sounds good if I can round up Sejai. She's always disappearing on me." Alexiel flashed him a smile as she started towards the door, opening it for him. "It was good to see you again Rubieus."

Rubieus smiled and used a sleight of hand to place a sack of small blood rubies upon her table before slipping out, he could tell she needed the money and thought she would decline if he offered it to her in person.
Take care, see you tomorrow dear.
