"I'll eat a hamburger." Mitsu wasn't big on the cheese but she certainly liked the meat. Hand reaching for Desmond's she looked back at the others just in time to see Kohaku motioning out the window. Curiously she moved over to see what the mute was trying to show them and saw the fans heading toward the bus.....oh god...fans. At least these weren't the girl's from Desmond's fan club but still it sent chills up and down her spine.
Klyde's eyes shifted toward the window as well seeing the girl's walking up. There were only five for the time being but he knew that number would change. How did the old man gather such groupies out of no where. Even his fan club wasn't that bad.
"Yeah....I see our problem." Neko called back seeing more than just the five girls creeping toward the bus, stars in their eyes. They seemed to be coming out of the wood works now and he was afraid if he didn't move they weren't going to be able to get out again. "We should have borrowed Jess' stand in..." Then they could have sent these crazy fans on a wild goose chase.
"Why can't you stand in?" Klyde asked.
Neko looked back in a bafflement. "Do I even remotely look like Jess to you? If you say yes I will come back there and knock those pointy teeth out of your mouth."
"You don't have to look like him, you could just cover up," Klyde offered rolling his eyes at Neko's threat. They usually threw that s**t back and forth between each other.

Burgers sounded good and all, to both boys. Shun wasn't really sure if he wanted to tail everyone though. Then again.. if Mitsu was going.. maybe he could bare with it. He wasn't too sure though. The thief, on the other hand didn't really care. He was cool with hanging with the others for the most part.
But then came the issue of the fangirls.
"I don't know about that.." Blade said while thinking on it. Having someone cover as Jess could easily backfire and they'd have a mob of the girls (and possibly some boys) on them before too long.
Thinking on the matter, Shun grimaced while looking out the windows at the girls coming on closer. He supposed he could sneak a couple of the group away. The assassin wasn't too willing to go back and forth to fetch everyone, however.
"I might be able to get a few of us further away from the bus," he murmured before narrowing his eye at the two vampires, "But you two better be fed first."

Riyo watched the interaction between Neko and Klyde silently, cringing when Neko asked if he looked like her father.
"Well... 4 out of 5 of them are decent looking if you wanted to go for it, Neko." It was honestly a joke, but if he took her serious then she could roll with that, too.
Turning to Shun as he mentioned getting a few away, Riyo ignored his second comment. "How do you propose doing that?" It wasn't a malice-filled comment, she was genuinely curious. Riyo hadn't actually witnessed Shun using any of his powers before.
Desmond squeezed Mitsu's hand as he felt it come in contact with his, though it was obvious he was baffled at the sudden onset of those horrible creature known as fan girls. They just dripped out of the woodwork, didn't they?
When Shun made his little warning about the two of them being fed, Desmond cocked an eyebrow. "Yes. We're full. House trained too, believe it or not." Trying to insinuate that he wasn't as stupid as Shun apparently thought he was.
Kohaku couldn't help but watch out the tinted window at the screaming banshee's below... When one of them decided to lift up their shirt and undergarment... And wouldn't you know it, it was the ugly one.
Face immediately turning pale, Kohaku turned around and looked at everybody as if she'd just seen a ghost. Though... It had been much worse than a ghost... The horror... THE HORROR!

Cocking a brow, Neko looked back out the window just in time to see that one out of five lifting up her shirt. "Dear god....I'll take my chances in here. I'm not hungry at all....especially not now." How the hell did Jess put up with this?
Mitsu had also been unfortunate enough to be looking out the window during the unveiling of a most disturbing sight. Paling to the color of her hair she turned around quickly eyes focused on Desmond's chest. The look on her face said she might possibly be sick but she managed to contain herself.
"Fed? Yeah, we're fed, what's the big deal?" Klyde asked with a raise brow catching the glaring look from Shun's one eye....whatever happened to his other eye anyway?
"You kids can do want you want, I'm staying here to enjoy a liquid lunch." Which meant he was going to lock the bus down tighter than Alcatraz and drink a beer or two. It was never too early.
When she was certain she wasn't going to be sick Mitsu looked back up toward Shun. She had an idea of what he might do, she had seen his ability enough now to know how it worked. "D..do you really think that's a good idea, Shun?" He would have to inflict a wound on himself. "W...we could always just go somewhere else." She was hungry but not hungry enough to let Shun hurt himself to get them outside.

Blade raised an eyebrow at Shun as he mentioned he could move them out. He was vaguely aware of his capabilities but he had never really seen it completely in action. For example, during Halloween, he just noticed that the guy seemingly vanished with Mitsu at some point but he hadn't seen him actually teleport.
"I can teleport, but I need to use a bit of my own blood for it to work," he said before eyeing the vampires. Namely Klyde since he didn't know the reasoning for his question, "I can bring two people with me.
Thankfully neither of the two caught that horrid flash from the window.
"Well.. if that's the case, maybe you can two others can go pick up the food for the rest of us?" the thief asked.

Riyo would've objected to the fact that Neko was going to drink and drive a bus...
But that would be very hypocritical of her. Besides, it's happy hour somewhere...
"Kohaku, can you take notes for us?" Riyo asked, watching the girl promptly shove her face in her notebook with pen in hand and look up at the feline with eyes still wide as saucers.
"Write down what everybody wants. Blade and I can go retrieve the orders." She didn't figure the vampires would want to go... Nor would Shun want them to. Mitsu and Kohaku probably weren't the best candidates for hauling stuff, so that left her and Blade. "If that's alright." She gestured to both Blade and Shun, trying not to assume they'd just do it.
Doing his best to ignore Shun's glare, Desmond turned his head back to Mitsu. Like he would want any of Shun's blood. It'd probably taste like emo and regret...

Mitsu remained quiet during the exchange not sure that she liked the idea of Shun hurting himself but he seemed willing for the task, what could she do? About to offer to go out and help bring stuff back Riyo beat her to the punch and suggested her and Blade go with Shun instead.
Not sure how to help Mitsu just reached into her pocket and pulled out a rather worn wallet and pulled out some cash. "I...I just want a plain hamburger, rare, with a brown pop." Might as well put her order in.
Moving away from the driver's seat as the fans began to swarm, Neko headed to the back where the kids were figuring out what to do. If you're going to bring stuff back bring me a burger too." He said before pulling out his wallet. It was easy to see that Neko wasn't poor as soon as he flipped the wallet open. Casually the feline pulled out one of the few smaller bills holding the twenty out for whoever was going.
Klyde wasn't sure how much he liked the idea of being left on the bus while Riyo left to go get food, but he supposed he didn't have that much of a choice. Since he wasn't getting anything the vampire made himself comfortable for the time being.

As Riyo decided who would be going, Shun shot a glance towards Mitsu for the moment, then nodded slightly. He didn't accept the wolf girl's money but took Neko's. That wasn't to say he wasn't going to pick up her order, but he was going to cover for her anyway.
"I got it.." he murmured lowly as he collected the stuff. Once that was done he bit down on his thumb to draw some blood. He let a single drop hit the floor, then grabbed a quarter to smear the red liquid onto. Moving on towards the window opposite of the fans, he cracked it open and flung it outside as far as he could and closed the thing once again.
Blade had no qualms about picking up the food, so while keeping in mind what he wanted, he glanced over towards Kohaku and took the order slip.
When everything was all set, Shun placed his hands onto the shoulders of both Riyo and Blade and the three of them disappeared in a dark wisp, reappearing in the alley further away from the bus. With any luck there wouldn't be any other fans lurking around on this side.

Well, that was easy enough. Watching Blade take the list of orders from Kohaku, Riyo started glancing over his shoulder just as they disappeared with a poof.
Though when they emerged on the other side, she seemed a little... Disoriented. "Wha-Where?" turning around, she looked back towards the bus. "Oh. Well.. I've... Never done that before." Disappearing in one place and reappearing in another was... Definitely not something Riyo practiced. Neat trick though. "So the orders are pretty much straightforward. We should be able to go in one place and get back out."
Turning in the direction of the closest fast food restaurant, Riyo started walking that way, doing her best to be inconspicuous. Or... As inconspicuous as people walking down the alley could be. As they entered the establishment, a thought suddenly crossed her mind. "Wait... How're we gonna get back in?"
Narrowing his eyes as Shun refused to take Mitsu's money, Desmond's hand left the wallet in his pocket. Jerk. He wondered just how bad things would get on the trip if this was just the first few hours.
Standing up from his seat, he began to explore the rest of the bus. They'd been told not to open the drawers, but that didn't mean he couldn't glance around the interior.
And wouldn't you know it. At the back of the bus there were instruments... Not that he could actually play them.
Smirking, he grabbed the double necked guitar and moved back to the front. "Anybody want some free musical instruments?" He asked jokingly, figuring Klyde might want to exact some revenge on the jerk who called him a leech all the time.
As Blade and Riyo disappeared, Kohaku waved to them with a smile, trying to hide her shock of them vanishing from sight.
But when the instrument was brought to their attention, Kohaku's ears perked. She'd never played a double necked guitar before.

"B-but..." Mitsu had started to object to the fact that Shun was going to buy her lunch but before she knew it he, Riyo, and Blade had vanished from the bus. With a sigh she stuffed her money back in her wallet for now, determined to sneak some cash into Shun's pocket later.
Moving over to take a seat Mitsu did her best to ignore the screaming fans outside while she waited for the party to return with food. Hopefully Neko would move the bus once everyone got back so they could eat somewhere a little quieter.
It was only then that she noticed Desmond was exploring the rest of the bus and she was a little leery on what he mind find until he came back out with the double neck guitar. Mitsu...had never seen one of those before and the look on her face said just that. The wolf girl was in awe of the instrument.
For a second, Klyde had a fan boy moment, his eyes lighting up like Christmas day. He had been really keen on the band...at least until he had met Jess. Remembering the feline in question seemed to suck the joy right out of him, a cruel smirk crossing his lips. "I wonder what the groupies outside would do for this." He mused reaching out to take the instrument.
Klyde had no talents when it came to instruments, it required to much concentration to read the notes. So when he strummed his fingers along the strings he made no attempt to hit any notes making a rather flat sound. Luckily since it was electric and currently not plugged into an amp there wasn't a lot of noise.
Not too interested in what the kids were doing Neko went back up front and reached into the bag he had sitting on the passenger's seat. There were a few clinks, much like the ones from Riyo's bag, before he produced a bottle of beer. True it was warm but Neko didn't care much. To him there wasn't much of a flavor improvement if it was cold. Twisting the cap off Neko took a drink, his eyes shifting cautiously toward the ever growing number of fans around the bus.
Just outside the bus an onyx black sedan with tinted windows came to a stop, idling far enough away so that it couldn't be spotted. The car had been following the bus since it had left school though the intent was unknown.
Inside the drive looked through his window, a hallow like expression on his face. He wasn't a terribly old individual, maybe in his early twenties, with rather handsome features but there was the look of death in his eyes. His attention had been on the bus mostly but he suddenly saw movement in the alley not far away. The blonde..that was one of the people he was supposed to trail. How had they gotten in the alleyway?
That aside, the man drew a phone from his pocket, hit one quick key and held the devise to his ear while it rung. It didn't take long for someone to pick up on the other end, a short 'yes' being their greeting.
"The group you want me to trail has come to a stop just outside some restaurants." He gave a description of his location but it was of little importance. "Yes...yes I understand. Very well, Ms. Tessa." Hanging up the driver put on some sunglasses turned off his car and got out. He wasn't supposed to confront them directly, but perhaps ruffle their feathers a bit for the time being. The real fun would be when they got to their true destination.

Blade was a little disoriented with the teleportation as he wasn't really used to that sort of thing either. It.. certainly was a unique experience. Shaking off the feeling, he saw the others beginning to move away and he quickly moved to catch up with them.
"Same way we came out," Shun said, "Granted no one licks up or wipes away the drop of blood I left behind inside."
He hoped no one would do that. It would make their return more troublesome than it needed to be. In any case, he just wanted to go in, get out, and get back to the bus. It was too bad, his movements were still a little stiff and sluggish else he probably would be walking faster. Damn his father.
"Oh good, the place doesn't look too busy," the thief commented as they entered the restaurant. Since he had the orders, he went on to the counter to relay what he had gotten, as well as what he wanted for himself.
Shun placed his order next, and grabbed a happy meal for Mitsu. It.. felt weird, but he had seen the girl order it a number of times before so he could only guess that was what she liked or preferred.

Kohaku watched as Desmond handed over the guitar to the other vampire, eyes affixed to the sleek instrument.
The moment Klyde threatened the guitar, the mute girl's face looked devastated. She just wanted to touch it... M-maybe play a few notes...
Visibly, she flinched when Klyde tried to strum it. Thank goodness it wasn't acoustic.
Desmond watched Klyde with a smirk, Until he noticed both girls staring at it intently. "... Maybe you should pass it around before you try to destroy it."
Oh. Well.
God help both the vampires if they happened to do that, because Riyo did not want to try and walk through an island of her father's groupies...
The feline couldn't help but wonder why Mitsu's friend was going so damn slow, though the desire to comment on it was outweighed by wanting to get food and go straight back. She didn't really think anybody would recognize her out here, considering she hadn't been in the paparazzi's eye for a short time, but she still looked around warily and avoided eye contact.
Waiting for the two boys to place their order, Riyo quickly followed up with her own, the smell of meat almost making her drool. Now to wait.

"Pass it around?" Klyde finally looked up to see both the remaining girls eying the guitar. With a sigh he held it out to Kohaku, guess his fun would have to wait. "Here, knock yourself out."
Curiously Mitsu made her way toward Kohaku as Klyde passed her the guitar. "D-do you know how to play?" She asked softly. Mitsu knew a little bit of guitar, at least enough to play a tune, but Shun was far better at it than she was. Her fingers were meant for the piano and that's what she seemed to favor in playing.
---
The man that had been following the group entered the restaurant behind them taking a step further back as they approached the counter to order. He had been warned that there were fighters among them and that the blonde feline was surprisingly strong though he couldn't see how. She was a thin girl who looked like lifting a wet newspaper might be difficult.
No matter, he wasn't one to argue. He had measures in place to help aid him for later. Reaching into the pocket of his jacket the man pulled out what looked like a tiny needle. At least...if one were to look closely enough. It was barely visible to the eye so it really just looked like he was rubbing his finger tips together as he put the needle in place.
The needle in question was lightly coated in poison. Nothing extreme but enough to make a person sick after a little while. If anything it would slow one of them down but which one? He considered his options carefully before bringing up the needle and lightly snapping his fingers sending it flying toward the three.
(symptoms: it will feel like a bug bite, nothing major. At first there will be no effect it is slow acting. Later the character will notice they feel odd, a little off, sluggish soon to feel feverish and lethargic. From there its your best guess :'D)

With the orders placed, Shun paid using the money he had gathered, along with his own. Before too long, the little group had several bags of food to carry back to the bus. He handed a bag each to Blade and Riyo while carrying the rest himself.
Stepping outside, he felt a slight sting at the side of his neck. Hissing he slapped it with his free hand but didn't feel anything. The assassin grumbled something about stupid bugs under his breath while glancing back and forth to make sure they were in the clear.
Seeing Shun do that, Blade frowned, hoping that bugs wouldn't be too big of an issue on this trip. It'd be quite the annoyance to have to deal with biting insects and the itchiness they brought. He glanced towards Riyo to make sure she was coming along, then followed the other boy to head back to the bus as well.
"Think more have showed up outside?" he asked her lowly, hoping that it wouldn't be the case. If there were many, it may be tricky to get the bus moving again.

Kohaku's eyes sparkled like diamonds as the guitar was passed to her, a big smile overtaking her lips as she caressed the strings on each neck. Draping the strap over her shoulders, the guitar looked oversized next to her small frame, but that didn't stop Kohaku from sniffing out an amp like some kind of music badger and plugging that sucker in.
At first, she plucked a few strings to make sure the guitar was in tune, adjusting as she saw necessary. With a small nod to Mitsu, the mute noticed a pair of sunglasses laying discarded on one of the tables... and couldn't resist putting them on.
She seemed, awkward looking for a moment...
Until she started shredding that guitar apart. Biting her lower lip, her fingers seamlessly danced across the strings, switching back and fourth between necks as if she couldn't decide which one she liked more.
It was... A jaw dropping experience.
Desmond had folded his arms when he watched the mute girl take hold of the guitar, figuring she'd try to play something stupid like 'mary had a little lamb'.
... ******** was he wrong. ---
Grabbing the bags she'd been handed, Riyo followed behind the two boys quietly, slightly relieved this little trip was almost over. Besides what appeared to be a bug bite, they had gotten by virtually unscathed.
"Probably." Riyo started, shifting the bags in her hands as she pictured the flock of hormonal teenagers most likely waiting outside. "It's like flies on a carcass. The more time passes, the faster they multiply."
