Jagger glanced at Alexander with careful eyes. "It seems all that relaxing has taken it's toll on you." she said as she started her car. "I was just out for a drive,actually. No specific destination. Where do you want me to take you?"

"No where really, just drive" He said as he heard the engine rumbled, looking out the the rearview window looking at the people walking through the street behind them.

Madeline stumbled along the side walk , knees wobbled and dress torn . Blowing her white bangs out of her grey eyes , she whipped some dirt off her face , only to cause more dirt on her instead .
I bet it was those hunters are to blame . Crumpling those goddamn buildings while I was in the alley next to it . I should`ve stayed in Demonic Ties .
She swiftly turned down an alley aggravated , punching a hole in the brick wall .
" May I help you miss ? " called a young man . Turning , she caught his face in a bit of light from the street . Extremely handsome , and untainted . Maybe her luck was turning around .
" You sure can , " Madeline noted quietly , walking over to grab him by the collar , pulling him farther into the alley .
Kissing him lightly , she let him be intoxicated by her , all the while dragging him back farther .
It was in the darkest shadow she savored the blood from his unconsious body .

Jagger shifted the car into drive then stepped on the gas. As she swerved through the alleys she glanced at Alexander out of the corner of her eye, noticing him looking in the rear view mirror. "Are you running away from something?" she said,curiously.

"No, just thought I heard someone" He did indeed hear someone as they drove away, a vampire, apparently, had caught some poor soul. Although being a vampire himself, he never did enjoy feeding which was probably why he had trained himself to go long periods of time without having to feed and controlling his bloodlust. He hated his curse and did not want to lose any part of him to it.

Jagger looked back at the road,not acknowledging the sounds of a human's life being taken away. Her face expressionless as usual,she took a sharp right then squinted as the bright street lights flashed. She drove down the street once more,passing humans and immortals alike. She wasn't one for small talk,therefore she remained quiet. She turned up the radio and smiled to herself as the Deftones sounded through the speakers. She quickly shifted down a gear,slowing down as she blended in with traffic. "You seem a bit too paranoid,my friend? The sound of blood being drained sicken you?" she asked.

"No, just remembering what it was like to be on the other side" He said staring at all the mortals who walked down the street, blissfully ignorant at all that was around them. He couldn't help wonder how different his life was before compared to his life not, facing forward again as they joined again with traffic.

Jagger thought for a moment then smiled,her fangs hidden. "Can I take you somewhere? " she asked ,glancing at him with kind eyes.

"Sure, why not" He said with a brief smile as he gripped his necklace thinking of all that he has lost. Some would think this life would be interesting or enjoyable but not if you had to lose the one thing that was most important.

Jagger exccelerated her speed and took a sharp left. They went down a dirt road,the buildings' lights only visible behind them. She continued to follow the road as trees surrounded them then came to a stop where the road broke off into a cliff. She turned the car off and got out,remaining quiet. As she approached the edge of the cliff,a light breeze began to blow,whipping her long gold hair back. The city's bright lights shined below them. The moon and stars gave a strange calming feel to the area.Jagger gave a soft smile as she looked upon the breath-taking view infront of her.
"I come here from time to time,just gazing at the things around me,and thinking back on my long life,memories. I used to feel that I was not worthy to live and condemmed to hell when I was turned. I pitied myself for centuries. Until I found this place." she paused,her eyes distant. "When I came here,I felt..peaceful. I thought 'I dont deserve to be surrounded by such beauty.' But,regardless of what I thought,I continued to come. And,now...I think differently. I feel grateful that I'm a vampire. I don't see this gift as a curse. I can see how the world changes over time,meet new people,see new things. Vampires have the very thing mortals dream of having..instead of regretting it for eternity, I cherish it. It reminds me of what I've been given." as she stopped talking her voice changed,becoming a slight french and english mix,exposing the years of her life.

"Not when you have lost everything" He said a bit darkly as he got out Jagger's car, moving over to where she was standing. It was not that he had never wished to have these kind of ablities when he was mortal but the powers did not subsitute the pain and lose that he recieved. He guessed that Jagger had a lot more time to ponder her situation, knowing that she was probably a couple of centuries old if not more or less. It has only been three years since his transformation but he did not feel his attitude would change anytime soon until he did the very thing he came to New York to do.

Jagger looked down,her face hidden by her hair. "Do you think you would have still cherished those mortals if they could live forever as well? Do you think you would have loved them the same way?" she asked him.

Gabriel walked onto the streets from the church shaking hands with the Father whom crossed himself immediately afterward muttering no doubt the rosary under his breath. He should, a creature born of evil and master of shadows had just been in meeting with him. They had just fraternizing together about a common goal but inside his heart the priest still felt as if somewhere in someway he was betraying God. Perhaps because he felt the familiar taint in the presence of Gabriel, a taint he had not felt in years since the flood and the arrival of that ancient one. The street was just as busy tonight as it was during the day the only difference was that at night the freaks came out and not the immortal kind. Everywhere Gabriel looked he saw more and more people shamelessly sporting taboo personalities in their style of clothing, the way they ate, breathed, walked.....lived. He never could understand the human fascination with the occult and the willingness of some to give up everything they had to attain immortality in undeath not truly knowing it was possible. Neither knowing the many other paths to their wildest hopes and dreams.
Pulling his collar up he started walking down the street amongst the throng of hustle and bustle that was New York. This place was so invigorating and the rhythm of the city almost seemed to make his heart want to start to beat again, but that could also be the result of the many adrenaline junkied mortals speeding around him. The scent of their sweat and blood enthralled him and he couldn't help but flash a smile flaring his nostrils taking it in the scent sending electrical impulses through him to his fangs. It was a wonderful night and he had heard that a beautiful young vampiress was performing on Broadway. The innocence of young vampires never ceased to amaze him, even when a century or two old they still acted so human at times. While walking thinking of this vixen he was bound to meet made him remember his charge. His masters love...an elder. How was someone like him suppose to approach an elder....how was he suppose to protect her. From a distance he was guessing at this point, his master told him it was a classic love story. Loving someone that was taken, that did not or at least to him love him in return.
Since then he had not seen or heard from him and he could only assume at some point in the future that his master would return himself. Quickly though he tried to distract himself with other things, info he had heard on the underground. Artifacts that might be in New York. Things up his alley more so than being a body guard for someone that might not even appreciate it. He had heard a rumor that there might be a single page copy of the Necronomicon from the 12th century in New York. That would be something to get his hands on.

The hum of the night club was familiar to him, as well as the line of people outside trying to get inside. He recognized this type of club and one of the ways to get in was to have a vampire on your arm. So many humans flocked to them pretending to be undead not realizing what it was they were surrounded by, they were always humorous to go to. Over all of this however even the smell of smog and sweat amongst others attacking his over acting nostrils he like any other vampire could zero in on the scent of freshly spilled blood. They were like sharks only far greater. Taking it in he started to follow it across the street towards the club, appearing to stand in line he sniffed the air more. The scent, it seemed to be coming from the club...no the roof of the club. This was not filtered through the various sweating bodies inside, it was fresh and from what he could tell there was a lot of it. Looking up and down the line he could tell who was a vampire now if not before, they were all slightly alert to the smell. Only someone very young would let this much blood spill and be this sloppy, only someone without a sire to teach them.
Stepping out of the line he walked into the alley next to the club and removed his sunglasses that hid his eyes from the everyday joe walking down the street. The glinted red reflecting the street light but dulled as he entered the dark dimly lit alley. It did not take long to find out what he was looking for, a fire escape that would easily lead him to the top. The one thing about being in a mortal populated city in the modern day that was annoying was the constant need to conceal what you were. Scaling the wall to the top was out of the question and trying to get through the patrons and staff of the club to the top was out of the question. He was detecting the salty smell of human sweat coming from the roof as well. When he finally made it to the top he was a little surprised to see no vampire but a single human. His back was facing Gabriel but he knew the type immediately.
((To be cont. in the appropriate thread.))
