§«≈₹ Takai Tokugawa ₹≈»§ "Ah, so you're the silent type. As you wish," Takai said quietly after the cat had settled on his shoulders. A person with a poor sense of humor might have asked, 'Cat got your tongue?', but that remark would come across as ridiculous and possibly offensive. Takai doubted that his new friend would object if Takai was to continue on, and so he went back to walking down the street. He could ask his new friend about the missing demons, but he didn't want to reveal his assigned task just yet. If the cat was going to be reticent, then he could be as well. Even so, he said, "I am looking for an acquaintance by the name of Tamathia. Would you, by chance, happen to know where I might find her?" Calling Tamathia an acquaintance was a bit of a stretch because he hadn't actually met her, but he knew her by reputation. If Takai's new friend knew anything at all about Tamathia, then he (or she) would probably come to his (or her) own conclusions about why Takai was looking for Tamathia.

Oh, Tammy! Glo thought with an inward smile. Her ears had perked at the name and she chirped. She supposed she got along with Tammy because she wasn't competition for the succubus. She always worked in the best locations, she would never work the street. It was a shame that she would have to give up her perch but she still wasn't inclined to speak so she jumped down easily from Takai's shoulders and took off down the street. She made sure she didn't lose him on the busy sidewalk; glancing back periodically to see if he was with him.
Decadent was her favorite place to find clients. Both she and Glo were good friends with the owner...and his sister. She settled in front of the club, which had a 18th century gothic appearence with a sturdy, deep, deep red door. She chirped again and smiled in the self satisfied way only a cat could. ((I'll put up the profile for the owner and his sister up soon. His name is Amadeus and his sister is Velvet a.k.a Goldie))

§«≈₹ Takai Tokugawa ₹≈»§ It took Takai no time at all to figure out that the cat was leading him to where he wanted to go, and so he he quickly followed after the cat. Eventually they were in front of a club named 'Decadent', which was an eminently suitable name for such a club. A single glance at the club was enough to tell Takai that it was the kind of place where Tamathia was likely to be found. "Thank you, my friend! You've been most helpful!" Takai said to the cat, and as he held open the door for the cat, he suggested, "Shall we go inside?"

((profiles are up!))
Inside the entryway was a place where coats could be checked. It was gloomy and his feline companion had disappeared into the gloom as soon as she'd proceeded him into the club. It was also quiet, the club obviously not quite open for business.
"Oh, Glo!" Takai would hear a female voice say further inside, "It's good to see you, but why are you in that form?"
He'd have to navigate three steps to pass the entryway and coat check section to get further into the club. Chairs were still stacked on top of tables. Dark rich woods, dark leather, velvet privacy curtains were tied back to reveal table booths sunk into nooks in the wall. It was very much like he'd step back in time into an old fashioned club or salon.
"Who are you?" The feminine voice asked and Takai would finally see her holding the black cat. An unruly mass of long black hair sat on a pale face where serious gold eyes considered him, "We're not open right now." her tone not distinctly unfriendly but not on the friendly side either.

§«≈₹ Takai Tokugawa ₹≈»§ Being an observant person, Takai took note that Glo was the name of the cat, or the demon posing as a cat, to be more precise. When he saw the female who was holding the cat, he sensed another demonic presence, and so concluded that he was among his own kind. Takai was impressed with the club, and he did not doubt that it will be very inviting and entertaining once it was open for business for the day. Deciding to say no more, and no less, than what he had already said to Glo, Takai informed the female, "My name's Takai Tokugawa, and I am looking for an acquaintance. Her name is Tamathia." It stood to reason that the female would know exactly who he was talking about.

Goldie took in the stranger, noting his height, and build, estimating his weight, how he stood and how he held himself. A habit of her job; she sized up every person she met. She shifted her stance, reflexively making herself a smaller target even if Glo was completely placid in her arms.
Brother. Someone is here to see your friend.
No sooner had she sent her silent message her brother came out into the club. He'd been in the kitchen, that was where she'd left him and Tamathia. She didn't take her eyes off Takai Tokugawa, as he identified himself, not that she needed to. She knew what her brother looked like, black hair just like hers but unlike hers, his was sleek; every hair in it's proper place. His bangs always fell into his face so only one of his lavender eyes was usually visible at any given time, lavender eyes set into a face so beautiful that, frankly, it was a bit ridiculous. Not that she was embarrassed or harbored any negative feelings towards her brother but she knew for a fact that her brother's face was coveted and desired by many a female. In her perifery she could see that Tamathia was right behind him.
Amadeus stopped next to Goldie and scratched Goldie under her chin, setting the demoness purring happily in his sister's arms, "You brought a friend. Hello." He directed his greeting to Takai, "I am Amadeus, I own this establishment."

((OOC: @DarkScarlettVixen, OK, I've posted the profile for Tamathia. I'll start posting for her after you've had the chance to introduce her to Takai.))§«≈₹ Takai Tokugawa ₹≈»§ "It's a pleasure to meet you, Amadeus," Takai said in return, "You have a wonderful club here. I'll have to stop by as often as possible while I'm in town." Not knowing that Goldie had already communicated the purpose for his visit to Amadeus, Takia repeated, "I am Takai Tokugawa, and I am looking for Tamathia." Of course he had seen the woman who had been following Amadeus, and it seemed reasonable to assume that she was the one that Takai sought. She certainly was dressed in the manner one might expect for someone of her profession and nature. The woman did appear to be rather young, but a succubus of Tamathia's age and experience would be able to appear as old or as young as she chose, and generally speaking a youthful appearance would be to her advantage. It went without saying that very few could match the skills of a succubus when it came to seductive appearance and illusions.

((Whooooo!))
Seeing she was no longer needed, Goldie moved towards the stage, mounting the three steps where she set Glo down.
"I am glad to hear it. Goldie was about to rehearse her numbers for tonight. Tamathia, darling, why don't you take your friend to the kitchen. You won't be disturbed there, the staff won't be here until noon to prepare for tonight." He smiled graciously at the succubus. He was surprised that Tamathia was acquainted with such a young demon. He was a handsome boy, though, which didn't surprise him at all.

Tamathia had thought that their visitor looked a little familiar, and when he introduced himself, she knew why. While suppressing a grin, she beckoned for him to follow her into the kitchen. Once they had the privacy to speak, she turned to him and said, "So, you're Sukara's kid! All grown up now! You probably don't remember me that well, but I have met you before. Of course you were only two or three years old at the time. How is Sukara doing these days?" Instead of giving Takai a chance to answer, she then teasingly went on to say, "I know why you're here! Your father has sent you to me for your very first time! How sweet!" That, of course, was an entirely ridiculous notion, especially if Takai was even a quarter of the demon that his father was when it came to females. If Takai was still a virgin, so to speak, then Tamathia was a Coptic nun.

§«≈₹ Takai Tokugawa ₹≈»§ Takai had followed Tamathia into the kitchen, as suggested. In answer to her question about his father, he replied, "My father is doing well. He has asked me to extend to you an invitation to stop by the palace for a visit should you happen to be in the neighborhood." Tamathia's remark about him being there for his 'first time' was so facetious that it didn't deserve a response. Instead, he continued, "My father has entrusted to me the task of discovering what has become of the demons that have disappeared. Since you know many of them, he has sent me to you, hoping that you might be able to shed some light on where they had been and what they had been doing prior to vanishing."

Amadeus watched them leave. When they'd disappeared from view, he turned back to his sister, "You wanted to rehearse, I don't think you really need to.""I do not wish to become complacent." Goldie was implacable.Amadeus sighed and shrugged, "You wanted to start with 'Gloomy Sunday'*?"Goldie nodded. She'd already warmed up her voice, it was what she'd been doing before the new guest had arrived. Now she took a deep breath and started the first lines of the song.Amadeus smiled as she started. He didn't know where the talent came from, neither of their parents had ever really expressed an interest in music...at least, not that he'd seen. As it was, he though his sister was far too serious but this and her work were what she threw her whole attention into.((*made famous by Billy Holliday))

Tamathia frowned when Takai had given her the list of missing demons that she knew. Of course she did know each of them, and intimately at that. The fact that two were females was completely irrelevant. "I had heard that a couple demons have disappeared," she stated, "But I didn't know it was becoming such a problem. Even if I had known that Serge and Hallia were missing, I wouldn't though much about it. Both are in the habit of slipping out of sight for years at a time. For all I know, they could be shacked up together. I've heard rumors that they have a love/hate relationship going on." It would have to be an intense love/hate relationship if the rumors were true. Serge was a male ice demon associated with the frozen northern wastes of Siberia while Hallia was a female fire demon with a temper that matched the flames that she produced at will. Either they were starring in a love affair that was torrid and scandalous by demon standards or they were going to end up killing each other. Needless to say, it was disturbing to hear that they were among the missing demons. Tamathia went on to say, "I have seen each of the missing demons at least once in the last year or so, but I can't tell you where any of them went after they had been with me. None of them volunteered the information and I didn't ask. As for what they had been doing while they were here, well... I'm sure that you've already figured that out." She smirked as she added, "If you need something for the official records, though, I can give you a detailed account of each of those trysts."

§«≈₹ Takai Tokugawa ₹≈»§ "That won't be necessary," Takai quickly assured her. There weren't any official records of his investigation, at least not at the present time, and even if there were, it wouldn't be necessary to explain why any of the missing demons had been with Tamathia, including the two missing females. "Do your friends know any of the missing demons?" Takai asked, referring to Glo, Goldie, and Amadeus, "Perhaps they might know something."

That would most definitely be a 'yes.' An unfamiliar voice broke in. Glo sat, prim and proper in her cat form on the counter just behind Takai. A living shadow, she didn't move for a long moment, her ears forward, blue eyes fixed on the male demon. She abruptly came to life and began grooming her paw and face. Some of her friends had gone missing, some of Goldie's and Ama's friends as well. This needed to stop and if there was someone here to look into it, she was on board. Goldie would be interested as well, Glo thought. She'd have to make sure Takai approached her about it.
