Seth
Seth laughed loudly as Libby disappered into the group and Angel and him began climbing the third and largest hill. Seth still had enough breath to talk as the ran.
"She's right, just an old friend from home, visiting me. We've known each other for years. So you wanna ride? Or do I have to call someone else up." Angel grinned saying yes.
"Alright then, I'll pick you up at seven, the race starts at eight. Give us some time to talk. Now the important question is what will I get if I win?" He laughed with the influx of confidence. Had this been hiding there all along or was this Libby's doing, buoying him up on her artificial stuff. He didn't care he was loving it as Angel said he'd just have to win to find out.
'If your feeding me confidence Libby, thanks.' Seth didn't know, but he wanted to believe it had been deep down all along, he just needed someone to tell him he could do anything.

Aimee
Lilly smilled.
"Lilly."
She stepped back from Vincent, and raised her eyebrows at Aimee when he turned back to his "girlfriend." She half-shrugged in return. We'll talk later...
"Hey; I thought you were staying out for longer?"
Lilly's face sort of fell.
"Oh. Well, he was a d**k head. I left early."

Libby
Libby kept a feeler out for Seth as the group began moving again. Everything was wokring out ideally. His own confidence had spiked and that is why her heart dropped at his question. She did not let it affect her pace though, leading the handful of humans at her heels. He had assumed that she was even though for once, she was not. Libby allowed the group to continue for some minutes before she even answered Seth's statement with a pulse. I'm not. Just go with the flow if things are going so well. You deserve it.
She would have told him that he could ask for it but she wanted him ask for it on his own terms, no pressure. Then, something struck her. Are you picking her up? If you are, I guess I could just get some college boy to carry me over. Never mind. It was silly. The demon shook herself, now having left the freshmen completely, almost back to the front by Seth and Angel. What had she been thinking? What did it matter if he took Angel, prissy face to the race? Libby kept her pace steady, thanking the universe that her mental voice carried no emotional tones. Hopefully, he would not know what else she had been thinking.

Vincent
"Maybe you should introduce him to me, I'll straighten him out." Vincent chuckled darkly. ******** rip his head more likely.
"Just kidding. Well I have things to get for the place. I'll be back in a bit. Anything either of you need?" He walked out of Aimee's room and peeked into the fridge. It was bare. It seemed that though they were well furnished, they ate out a lot. We'll just have to change that.
"Either of you dependent on meat, cause I am a vegetarian." Sorta. Vincent chuckled again, knowing Aimee would get the joke.

Aimee
Lilly shook her head; she stepped away from the doorway, so that Vincent could get out.
"Naw; I don't think I'll be seeing him anytime soon again."
Aimee shook her head; the two girls answered together.
"No, thank you."
"We're good, Vincent."
Lilly looked mildly surprised at Vincent's announcement of vegetarianism.
"You're a vegetarian? Me too! How cool is that?"

Her eyes slid over to the demon as she pulled up to the curb, a rather rueful smirk appearing on her mouth. "Well, there is no lie there." She said, taking off the sunglasses and hooked them to her visor.
Her blue eyes slid once more to the demon as she turned off the car. "You know, you have no room to talk." She said with a snort as she got out of the car, hurrying around the vehicle she opened the door for the demon, so she wasn't hitting the curb with the bottom of her door.
"We walk from here Colette."
She said offering the demoness a hand.

Colette
"At least I don't pretend to be something that I am not."
Colette's smooth, soft voice sounded remarkably sullen; to the casual observer, it would appear as if Colette had lost the argument, not the other way around. But then, her last master she had been particularly fond of and he'd started on weed, and ended on Heroin. Never mentioning of course, that Colette had been the one who'd introduced him to the Mud, to the needles.
"I am 'learning the error of my ways' via indentured servitude, Candy. I have all the room in the ******** world to speak of such matters."
She took the offered hand and pulled herself out. Colette's hand resided in Candy's a moment too long to be polite, before she reclaimed it. She looked around, not seeing a Chinese joint immediately pop out at her.
"Is it far?"
She had no aversion to walking, not in the slightest; the demon was just wondering how far it was until she could eat. It had been too bloody well long since she'd had a nice set of noodles slurping down her throat, by anyone's standards.

Seth
Seth felt the second and then third pulses of thought. The first buoyed her confidence more as she confirmed it was all him, the second made him chuckle mentally. 'Little jealous Libby. I know some guys that go to races religiously. They owe me a favor.' All three of them reached the third hill, the main group lagging significantly. Angel inquired about his bike as Seth looked down from the vista they had headed to. It was an artificial hill, the rest of the state, and city were flat. They were only a hundred meters from sea level up here, but those who were desperately out of shape were feeling the difference.
"It is a custom build mostly. I took an old school Harley frame and a newer engine and went from there. I have to mount the NOS tanks tonight." She seemed to impressed, but out of her depth.
"Its really big, really fast, and really loud." She understood that and laughed. Finally the group made to the top of the hill, panting, wheezing and bending over.
"Don't bend over, your just compressing your lungs. Stand up straight and put your hands behind your head. Take deep breaths, even if it hurts. You gotta get oxygen to your muscles." Some did as he said, most didn't but then Angel said he was right and they started following suit. Eventually most of them were ready for teh run back downhill, knowing it would be easier on them, they were wrong. It would be harder, their knees would hurt more and their lungs would strain worse trying to keep balance and speed at the same time.
"Race you two." Seth laughed as he took off down the hill at full tilt, Angel on his heels.

Vincent
"Yeah, a few years back I was really in-tune with the ocean and loved to play with the sea turtles and dolphins that played near where I hung out. I stopped eating meat then, you every little bit helps." He chuckled ruffling his hairs slightly. Vincent looked and sounded every bit a surfer that walked right out of a movie. He winked at the girls and left, "Don't order anything, I'm cooking tonight. You'll love it." He chuckled as he left and headed out. He didn't know where to go, but he knew how to find out. There weren't super markets in the forties, but there were small grocers and they always hand the stink of polluted water.
Two hours later he was back, ten bags in each hand from the local market. He had to get some money, which involved him turning translucent and walking to a bank, grabbing some cash and walking out. A little over four grand, was stuffed in his pocket.
"Alright we are having stuffed peppers with a mushroom sauce and noodles of some variety."

Libby
She was not jealous. How could he even fathom the idea? Libby stopped with the group, just two people behind Seth and Angel. Her Master's technical talk was child's play to her but Blondie was struggling as was evidenced by the much simpler translation. The demon shook this off as he spoke again, this time to the crowd about how to rest. His confidence level was almost unbearable, sweet to her liking but forbidden. She walked up to them right after his racing challenge. Again, Angel looked over at her.
"I'm not a threat, if that's what you're thinking," Libby said quietly, jogging so as not to pass Seth. "Have fun tonight but hurt him and you will - suffer." SHe would said 'die' but that was already guarenteed with mortality. Pleased with the petrified glance from the human, she refocused on Seth. Who are these friends of yours and when can I meet them? She was avoiding his first statement just because any verbal answer would betray her instanteously.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx She opened her mouth, but closed it, a soft frustraited sgh escaping her. "If you say so." When the demon took her hand she pulled her out and glanced around, though she felt the demon pull her hand away. She cleared her throat slightly and shook her head. "Naw, not far at all. Maybe a block. The parking sucks though, atleast the streets are big enough here my car isn't going to get hit." She glanced over at her. "Its a good thing your ravenous, its all you can eat." She grinned and began walking down the sidewalk, knowing the demon was following her. urned around and clicked the button on her keys, her car chirrped as it locked before she turned back around. If there was one thing that Candy was good at doing, it was moving through a large crowd. She slipped around people without touching them, or upsetting their path in the least. She stopped infront of the resteraunt and glanced around, a frown on her mouth. She was missing the demon. She leaned against the wall as she waited patiently.

Colette
A few minutes later, and the missing Colette made her re-appearance, looking defiantly worse for the wear. She did have the good skills or grace to weave and bob through a crowd. Suffice it to say that she was definitely annoyed and more then a little pissed over how the human race progressed. Or rather, regressed. Colette breathed a small sigh of relief to see Candy standing patiently; she brushed down her dress, trying to look more pulled together.
"I don't like people, Candy. They're brutes."

Candy grinned at the girls comment. "They are, you just have to show them you're bigger and badder then they are, and they will respect you." She moved forward and smoothed down a piece of hair that was miss placed on the demons head, odds are it had caught onto something or someone. she smiled at Colette slowly. "There you go, looking much better." She said before turning around and opening the door for the demon.

Alexandria
She looked up at the car and then nodded "Yeah I can drive" she said her voice sounded really with no emotion as she grabbed the car keys from him and went to the driver side getting in. She started the engine and then looked at Vassili "And you have nothing to be sorry about, he brought this upon himself" she said to him as she put the car into drive "Just tell me where to go okay?" Alex said pulling out of the parking spot.

Aimee
While Vincent was gone, Aimee took the time to fill Lilly in on the details of her new "boyfriend." She made sure not to mention the fact that he was a water demon hundreds of thousands of years old, of course. All too soon, he was bustling back in the door. The two girls drifted out of Aimee's room.
"Peppers? I love peppers!"
Lilly grinned exuberantly at Aimee.
"He shops and cooks, Aimee? Why doesn't he have a ring on him yet?"
Aimee laughed along with Lilly, the latter never imagining the truth.
"You need any help? Lilly's a horrible cook, truly terrible, but I like to think that I'm not bad myself..."
