Welcome to Gaia! ::

Armand's murderous expression darkened and he smirked, walking towards the leader. The rest were just sheep following their leader. And those pipes. . . What pipes? Armand caught hold of a pipe swinging towards him, swiftly ducked one so that it hit the thug behind him, then felt his tricep extend as he bent the pipe backwards.
"Beautiful little toys, but not very effective," He bluffed. It wasn't really true. If aimed correctly, those pipes could know him out. Like he was going to let that happen! He reached out and put his arms around Icarus before he could get kicked again, pulling him backwards into his chest, taking the blow himself. His shin burned from the impact of the shoe, but he simply turned and backhanded the man hard. His knuckles began to hurt. Oh well.
Armand righted Icarus, keeping him near as he knocked the sense out of the already senseless man who decided to run in front of him to swing a pipe at his human. The vampire held a lok of plain insanity as he rendered his grasp on his human. He leaned forward and snatched the necklace out of the leader's hand, glaring at the others around him as he gave the chain backto Icarus. No one hurts this boy.

As Icarus was pulled back his hand left the mans ankle. He stayed where Armand had put him since he could barely stand and then there was the fact that he could only see blurred figures. The boy took the necklace that was handed to him.
The group of thugs dispersed screaming in terror. Only one stayed. The leader who was inraged. "How dare you!" He yelled. "Give that back!"
Icarus blinked and his vision cleared enough to where he could see things not just as blurred blobs but as things that were just blurred a bit by motion. The thug started towards the two. Icarus mad from having been beaten ran at him and punched him in the jaw. He fell to the ground shortly after he had hit him. The man fell to the ground unconcious and Icarus half sat, half laid on the ground.

Mitsuki stopped in mid step and turned to the other. I'm his!? Feeding bag.....not this again! He sighed and walked over to Nova and grabbed his hand. "Look, I don't know what happened last night, but you own me an explaination on what's going on." He began to pull the other in the direction of his house. "Come on, After I shower and change, you are going to explain everything to me." For some reason, some eurge, he wanted to be close to this boy, though he had no idea way. Damn it all! I'm going to get to the bottom of this! As he walked he looked back at the other, taking notice on how the other looked. He blushed and looked away, the other was indeed attractive, but he never was attracted before to anyone. Why start now?

Nova smiled with a blank pleasent look and sniffed the air. If the guy wanted an explination, then there was no reason he would deny him that information. The vampire looked down at his feet, nearly tripping over them but was able to keep up straight. Nova's grey eyes searched the area as he yawned. He really had a short attention span while he walked, so he did not recognize anything from where they were. A building here, a building there... All just more information flowing into his mind that he would never use. How much had he learned over his one hundred and fifty years of life? He shrugged off his question and looked back at Mitsuki. The vampire caught the red face and smiled. "Okay, I'll tell you everything once you're all pretty. Well, prettier," he said and chuckled. He loved speaking the way he did.

(( heh heh. . .well, yes. Sometimes ))

Armand looked down at the boy in his arms. he looked rather messed up, and he could pin point where he had been shot as well. His thigh. The Achyls rolled his eyes.
"You're to trusting. What if I was a serial killer you idiot. . . " He muttered, not speaking too loud. He sighed. Icarus didn't remeber anything. He didn't even know what Armand was. He would have to change that in a while. Just as soon as the boy went to sleep.
"Time to go to dreamland precious!" He whispered as he walked up the street and out of the trees. The sun make him wince, but other than that he was fine. "It will be easier for us both if you do. Either go to sleep or I will put you to sleep."
And this was Armand being kind. He was the same as when he was mean, only he didn't back up 99% of his threats. He ran his fingers along Isacus's sides as he reached the door, then found what he was looking for and quickly withdrew the key fro his pocket. After making quick work of the door and shutting it after him, Icarus was placed on the couch and Armand sat down on the floor next to him, his top hat in his hands.

(( I think I'll skip being noctural for tonight and head to bed in a while. Probably in 15 mins ))

Armand watched the angelic face for a while, making sure he was deep into sleep before he stripped the boy of his clothes and hunted around in the bathroom to find the bandages. Bandages and a cloth in hand, the vampire grumbled quietly about humans and how patheticly weak they were while he plucked the bullet out of Icarus's leg and began to clean and bandage him up. Putting back what bandages he didn't use, he found himself looking down at Icarus with an odd feeling in his chest. He couldn't tell if he liked the boy or if he wanted to hit him. Either way, he noticed, after carefully managing to put a new shirt over the boy's head and slipping his arms though, that the pants were a bit of a problem.
He shrugged, not even bothering to try, and got the blanket from the bed room. After throwing it over his human, Armand turned and locked the door, opening the bedroom window enough for him to come back inside later. He was off to tell the man he had seen yesterday, that Icarus would not be in today. If that wasn't his boss, then whatever. If it was, that was good.

(( lol Armand couldn't be bothered to put pants back on him. Poor Icarus. I feel sorry for him ))

Armand made the trip, mostly hiding from the sun and dodging suspicious looking people. He knew some people actually believe in vampires and carried around little bags of garlic. The smell was utterly revolting! When he got to the shop, that's exactly what he found close to the counter. He couldn't go any further than there without having a complete coughing fit, and probably hurting someone in his haste to get away. It was one of the worse smelling things ever created!
He turned around after pretneding to examine an old china plate on the wall. Thoughts about calling his claimed human in absent for work was not an option. But he could always get hospital forms and say it was an emergency. For the second time that day, Armand stopped to wonder about why he cared so much. It was annoying! But he couldn't shake it from his mind. In thorough digust wiht himself, he headed back. If he was lucky, Icarus would still be asleep and he could atempt to put his pants on without waking him up. No doubt if he was wake he would hear an earful.
