A yellow eye appeared in the opening of a manhole cover for a few moments before disappearing from sight. A soft scratching sound would have been audible were it not for the night crowds and the noises they made. The creature that made the sounds had dropped down to the sewer below, and was slowly making his way to a less crowded area. He couldn't let people see him when he hunted...
The creature froze as he caught a faint scent. His pupils shrunk rapidly and a hard sheen came over his eyes. "You!" He rapidly turned down a passage and began racing towards the scent, afraid from losing it.

Lyka slowly emerged from her home a few minutes later, her hair as disheveled as ever and eyes red as the many who have become addicts of Fatal Vein. She stretched her arms up to the sky sighing lightly before the mischevious grin she used to wear appeared on her face, "Now I can deal with this new mission I received..." she said, the grin fading on it's own. The new mission...
"It seems I need your assisstance once more." a female voice said, her voice filled with tone endless money can only give to the Elite, "It's a simple mission really..."
Lyke growled lightly before saying, "Forenthiel, cut the crap. You know as well as I do that I ain't gonna do a damn thing for you. Not after last time."
The laughter on the other end was harsh as the Lady said, "Oh my dear, but you will do as I say for if you don't...well I will make sure go through a very painful withdrawal."
Lyka stiffened before walking down the streets, blending in easily with the fellow Standards now that her arm had been replaced with something better... She looked at her right arm for a long moment and marveled at how lifelike it was. It even had a pretty convincing skin covering...but it wasn't the real thing.
"Oh well...it is the closest thing to it. How did I lose that arm again?" Lyka asked herself, getting strange looks from the people around her, "Oh yeah...I chose the wrong Elite to steal from..." she chuckled to know one in particular before walking towards a less crowded street.

A grate lifted up in a side street and the large reptile stepped out onto the dark street. He lept up, using his claws and clung to a wall. He moved on it almost effortlessly, as though he were crawling on the ground. At that moment, he saw his chosen prey. "Lyka... I've been looking forward to this for a long time..." He let out a harsh hissing sound and bolted up the side of the wall. A few people looked at the alley from where the noise had come, but he knew only Lyka would know what made it.

Akashi looked at the woman and said nothing as he helped her to her feet. Slowly his eyes drifted over to An'an as a smile crept on his face.
'That is was. I am glad to see that you are doing well." His ahnd moved to the woman's back, keeping her up as he talked to the men. Akashi glanced over at the other one, bowing his head.

Lyka stopped in midstep as she heard the sound, the hairs on the back of her neck standing on end. Her eyes widened slightly as she turned towards the alley, but other than that she didn't show any fear. he looked more startled than anything, a nice show for the innocent bystanders around her.
No...
Her hands slowly went to hre sides, the cold metal of her guns comforting her greatly at this moment. She knew that sound, she had heard it so many times in her dreams to ever forget it. Psych.
"So you want payback..." she murmured as she moved towards the alley, "I can't say I wouldn't do the same." she lowered her arms, her guns now at her sides, "Even though I know this won't mean anything, I'm glad the Watchers didn't kill you."
She looked around as the memory came back, bring small tears to her eyes which quickly evaporated. It was the last time their group was together, Ferid, Esgloroth, Pysh and herself were finally a real group, trusting in one another as best as they could. She even dropped her ties from the Standard class to stick with them out of trust....or so they thought. It only took a simple phone call, a simplle lie and then a wrong turn into Watcher Territory for their friendship to end. The Watchers never touched her, infact they gave her the money right then and there before they played one huge round of the Games, six against three. She was sure they were all dead...until now.
Her eyes narrowed as she looked up at the ceiling, her fanged snarl clearly shown, "If you want to kill me than I'll be damned if I make it easy." she shot down the alley, much faster than Psych had ever seen her and entered a now deserted street, making sure to keep their fighting ground open before she switched her guns for her katana.

Orb opened the other eye and blinked looking around. A slow but deep blush rose in her face, making her cheeks warm and she released the man, "Excuse me..." She mumbled, but he didn't seem all that upset that she'd just crashed into him and practically hugged him; a total stranger. He was engaged in conversation with another man so she wasn't sure he'd heard her, she'd wait until he was done. As she waited, she looked at her shoes, and fiddled with her fingertips.

Akashi blinked and looked at her, smiling softly as he took her hand into his. SLowly he raised her hand to his lips, kissing it softly as he spoke.
"There is nothing to apologize for my dear. Are you alright?"

She wondered if her head could explode from blushing too much. She watched him take her hand in fascinated awe then gasped, "Oh! Yes, I'm sorry...I mean--" She sighed and looked around to see that her friends had run off without her. She cleared her throat, "Thank you for standing where you were." She said, gathering herself. Without the company of children her own age, she needed to get herself together and put all that lady-training into action.

Akashi nodded his head as he slowly let her hand go. A small laugh escaped him as he watched her face turn red.
"Forgive me for making you blush so. I am glad to hear that you are alright, but what is a young woman like yourself doing alone at night on the streets?"

Yeah, right. She could smell he was nosferatu, though she wasn't sure why, her adopted parents thought she was human and so did she. He's probably loving the song my blood was playing, she thought wryly, "My friends and I just came from a club. We were heading home....when I ran into you." She gave him an apologetic smile. She looked to An'an, "I didn't mean to interrupt your conversation." She added.

He shook his head and smiled.
"Do not worry about that. You should be headed home now before something happens to you." Then he took his top hat off and bowed his head to her.
"It was a pleasure meeting you."

He must be old. She gave him a smile and dropped a perfect curtsie, it looked odd in her jeans but she didn't wobble, "I'm Orb Fonte, by the way. Who are you?"

He looked at her and nodded his head.
"My name is Akashi Yamato."

She grinned, "Good night!" She hesitated and gave the other man a wave before hurrying off, "If you guys aren't behind the corner, I'm gonna kill you!" She called down the street. She turned the corner and was gone.

An'an watched her go in surprise, "What an interesting lady...." he murmured before looking at Akashi, "Considering the time, it would be rude of me not to invite you to my home." he said, knowing the girl was long gone, "My driver will be here in a little while and I can provide you with food if you wish." his demeanor was far different than what Akashi had known before. He wasn't the bodyguard obviously, but one of the true Elite.
"I can assist you with anything else sir," the assistant said with a slight bow, "I am Apa, An'an's assistant android."
An'a closed his eyes slightly but said nothing. He had told Apa constantly that there was no need for him to state what he was, infact it would help if he didn't...but seeing as this was merely Akashi and no one else, ti was fine.
