Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Well first thing you must know is that if you do me a favor then I will owe you a favor that you can call up at any time and can have almost no limitations. That being said the favor I ask is this: there is a Lycan girl running around that calls herself Fin. She is young and hot tempered but is a friend to a great many vampires. What she is currently up to is trying to forge an alliance between the lycans and the vampires and if that fails possibly start a war between the lycans and the hunters. The task given to me by my elders is to keep an eye on her and..." Jaden paused a second looking for the right word "...make sure she doesn't get herself into trouble. All I ask of you is if you see her you send me a message."

"Well thats very sweet of you." Jaden said. He felt a twinge in his chest that he hadn't felt in a long time. He stood up "Sorry Rein but I must leave you now. If you ever need anything then you should be able to find me in my... building at the edge of the city." He bent down on impulse and licked her cheek. "Good night." he whispered in her ear and then disappeared into the shadows of the ally.
{{Sorry I've got to go, but before I do I extend to you an invitation to my apartment in the Lycan subforum}}

Entering from the Lycan section of town, a dark figure hung its head low. Walking alone in the midst of night, it continued to trudge the streets. Alas, it was Fate, lonely as can be. Then again, that was nothing new.
She considered heading over to a bar. Perhaps the thinning of blood and spinal fluid would ease the pain. She felt as if she were carrying a dagger deep within her. Why did she continue to allow this to happen? Slowly, she reached a dark corner near an alleyway. Sitting on the corner against a wall, Fate breathed lightly. It was a chill tonight. Her long hair fell around her face as she hung her head. Such pain she never wished to know. Her eyes were nothing but gray pools, engulfing every beautiful thing in life. She knew no beauty. Placing her palms on the ground and her knees bent upward and at inward slants, she stared into abyss. Things appeared grim and drab. The only other thing to make this night any better was rain. Ah yes, drenching to the bone would just complete the misery. Fate shivered at the thought, but sat unmoving.

After a long while of sitting, it was apparent what she must do. Existence had nothing to do with these plans. Slowly, Fate stood. She then walked to the nearest bar she could find. Tonight, it was her against the world. Nothing would hold her here much longer.

Wes Enters the city and sits at the same bench by the ally way waiting for ashton to catch up.

Anne walked into the cool night air and took a deep breath. This thing with Jaden . . .with his past . . .it was all going to end in bloodshed. And Wes and Fate . . .there were many who were against the relationship. She buttoned down her coat and straitened her already impeccable scarf. She breathed in the the air, shifting her body into position before she was to merge with the wind. Suddenly she caught sight of something and then the smell . . .a lycan. She spun around ready to defend herself and then she stopped and calmed her chilled nerves. This could only be one person . . .one person she heard of. She walked over to him, sayed her impassive (outwardly) self* Might you be . . .Wes?

Searches for the demon for an hour than gives up

Slowly awakening into a deep, dark, and cold alley, Fate groaned some. God..what had she been doing!? Where the hell am I..? Looking around, she noticed someone moving in the corner. Hurridly, the young vamp sat up. "Who goes?" It was hard to see. Because of her headache, Fate had terrible vision.
Suddenly, a tall, slender woman stepped from the darkness. She kneeled to Fate's level. Her eyes were a gleaming jade, as those of cat's eyes. Her skin was a light tone, and her long silver hair flowed past her waist, loosly tied with a bow towards the end. Placing her hand onto Fate's cheek, the woman smiled. Fate gasped, "T..Teacher..? How..can it be..Is it really you?" The woman nodded. "It's been quite sometime my child." Shaking her head in disbelief, Fate patted the woman's hand. "Why did you bring me here?" Her teacher smiled. "I didn't want you harming yourself." The woman held up a cresent moon necklace, silver in colour. It was the same as Fate's eyes. "This pendant will protect you, even from yourself. I can't afford to lose one of my best students." Fate smiled, placing it around her neck. The woman stood. "Please take care of yourself. Remember, there's always a purpose for your existence." Nodding, Fate glanced at the necklace.
In the next instant, her teacher was gone. "..Thank..you..," she whispered into the darkness. Sighing, Fate stood. Mustering all of her strength, her legs carried her out into the dimly lit streets. It was a miracle she could even stand, let alone walk. Fate clinged to a street lamp for a few moments, unsure of where she should go, or what she should do. What a strange encounter...
