((I'm so jealous. It doesn't come out until this Friday here, and I'll have to wait until next week to see it anyway.))
The barman smiled to himself, seeing Ruth start to feel the effects of the drug he'd given her. "Aye, miss; but not very often."
((Just trying to spice things up a bit with him drugging Ruth. Heh heh. razz ))

((It's all good; it's fun to do something different))
Ruth swayed slightly and leaned on the bar. "Uunngh...I feel a bi' odd..." Ruth's eyes rolled back in her head and she sighed as her knees buckled and she collapsed, knocking her head on the bar as she fell.

Doing one last check to make doubly sure no one else was around, the "barman" scooped up Ruth, lips spreading into a hideous grin, and carried her into the back room. A bit of tan make up flaked off his face, revealing bleached white skin underneath.
((I have no idea where I'm going with this exactly but it should feature an interesting twist to say the least, heh heh. razz ))

((Indeed! Mind you, since I'm now unconsious, I have no idea how to respond razz I'll have to motor things along a bit. Perhaps you can flash back if needed? Or whatever))
Ruth awoke in darkness.
With a groan, she sat up. How much time had elapsed since she'd passed out? Had she passed out? She shook her head, trying to remember.
And where was she now? She'd hoped that her eyes would begin to adjust to the darkness, but she was still unable to see anything. Was she in a cellar? She groped around in the darkness until she felt something under her fingers. It felt like a card; that is, the cards that her old shipmates had gambled with, with numbers and suits. What would it be doing here? And what else....or who else....was here with her?
Should she call out?
((A bit of a departure from my usual writing style I know, but there's only so much you can present as 'seen' in a character when they're in the dark, so internalised feelings it is!
Also, I voted 10 for your avi in the arena. Yay for awesome avis!))

((Whoo! Thanks for the vote. xd
And meh, we can sorta just take things as they come. 3nodding ))
Ruth could hear a sound from somewhere nearby, and jumped. "So, are ye awake, miss?" The voice that spoke sounded like the barman. "I'm, er, not sure what happened. How'd we end up here?"

((Sorry! Uni's just gone back, I'm pretty damn busy at the mo, so couldn't reply earlier))
Ruth's eyes narrowed when the voice in the darkness did not reply. "Answer me!"
She reached tentativly into the darkness until her hand brushed what felt like hair. Grabbing it, she pulled hard.

((It's all good. smile ))
"Ow!! Hey, what are you--?" It sounded like the barman. "Miss, is that you? Where are we?" he asked. "Have ye any idea?"

The barman was silent for a moment. And then he began to chuckle-- a mirthless, sinister kind of laugh that would set most people on edge. "Well now," he said, his voice suddenly changing completely in tone, and it sounded like he was drawing out some kind of weapon as he smacked his lips. "You have a bit of spunk, which ought to make this fun. For me, anyway. Maybe I brought you down here..." He started to move away from Ruth, somehow able to find his way in the dark. "And then again, maybe I didn't."
The lights all at once came on with a blinding flash, and from across the room the mysterious man grinned over at Ruth, watching her intently, a knife clutched in one of his hands.

Ruth squinted and blinked, panic and anger setting in. As the light ceased to blind her and man across the room came into focus, she reached automatically for her dagger. Looking down, she realised with horror that her weapons had been taken. The man grinned wider - far too wide, it seemed - and began to walk toward her slowly as she scrambled to her feet.

He caught hold of by the hair and jerked her head roughly to the side, his eerie grin still present-- although in spite of his smile he showed no actual signs of jollity, his eyes stone cold, his face almost like some kind of hideous death mask. "So," he said, smacking his lips as he brought the knife up to the startled women's face. "You can be frightened. Hold still, this will only hurt for a second..."

At that moment the front door wildly swung open, and there stood a beautiful man. as he stood his hair danced in the wind of the door swinging open. doves flew around him because he was so elegant. he was stalked by a group of adoring fans who all wanted a piece of his glistening manliness. This man is one of the sexiest men alive. he is a member of an electronica band, and also secretly a vampire. As he walked into the bar, the world went into slow motion, and a smooth beat started playing. This was his theme song, Dreamscape (please click) He sat down at the bar. "Hey barkeep! I want one of your finest coffees." He said as he flipped his hair out of his eyes... ((rockstar to the rescue.))

((--Falls over and dies laughing.-- Wow. This ought to be pretty interesting. 3nodding ))
Unfortunately at that moment the tavern was curiously deserted. A door behind the bar had been conspicuously left open, however...

Gil (name of character...) just noticed that no one was here. he was a little worried about this amount of emptiness. sure he figured he could get away from fans and paparazzi here, but this was a little more than he expected. there was absolutely no people in this bar. Gil saw the open door and decided to investigate... On the other side of the door was a stair case. Gil started his descent and music started playing like magic. clicky!

He could hear sounds of some kind of struggle up ahead-- and voices.
((Love the new avi, Jimbo. Awesome.))
