Vampire RP 2: Redemption

Kiki grinned and raised her right hand. Her bones in her arm snapped and grew into a long blade which broke through her skin. She winced as it pushed its way through her flesh. "Alright then. Shall we begin?" She grinned and her eyes widened. The shadows around them seemed to grow deeper. Silently she stepped back until they engulfed her body, hiding her from him. "Let's see how long you last, my friend."

Tammi nodded and smiled, sitting down on the couch and making herself at home. "That makes sense. Are you going to be bringing him to the hospital with you?"

That was something new for Edward. Of course there were other vampires he encountered that had unique abilities, but nothing like what he just saw Kiki do. Apparently his Mind Reading wasn't going to be of any use to him in this battle, so he had to solely rely on his 110 years of experience as a vampire. He listened intently and observed the shadows intensely. He had to keep this woman away from Tammi and Jason.

jason stood still, his face frozen in the curious position it had been in. at first, the images came slowly like a computer loading information, but then, the rest hit him like a ton of bricks. he stepped back and held his head for a moment. but instead of a look of fear, there stood his everlasting smile. he stood straight and stared into the deep inky blackness of lich's eyesockets. his lips slowly opened, and he spoke in a whisper only loud enough for them to hear. "but that is where you are wrong." then as lich turned to the wall, jason turned to tammi. "well anyway, i'm gonna go start on that pizza, so you 2 get better acquainted." he walked over to the kitchen door. "oh, and dont touch any of the wires, or you could short out the whole system." he entered the kitchen and began working on the pizza.

Tammi blinked and glanced at Lich. he sighed softly and turned her gaze back to Jason as he left. "Alright. Call me if you need help." She reached up wearily and rubbed er eyes before speaking softly to Lich. "So tell me, your called Lich correct? Does your name have anything to do with the mythical creature called a Lich, or is it just a name?" (a lich's description- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lich) Her hand fell to her lap and she wearily smiled up at hi, trying to ignore the black on his cheeks.

Kiki grinned at this man as she silently circled him. He seemed very intelligent, so naturally she'd need to proceed with extreme caution. Silently she stepped from the darkness behind him, weapon raised and ready to slash his neck if he were to turn and face her. Her body seemed to pull itself from the black ink like shadow from which she stepped. She smiled and whispered to him. "Behind you darling."

Lich did not humor the thought of Jason possibly knowing what he spoke of, only he nodded out of respect and followed him in. The doorway was not wide enough for Lich but it did not concern him. He passed through the wall as though he were a ghost. The shoulders that couldn't fit, became a violet smoke that reformed the ligaments that were sacrificed to make room. Once he was in the living room he watched Jason began to cook before his concentration was broken by Tammi's question.

"I would assume that the curse placed upon me would make me a Lich, however," he paused to wipe away the tear stains that still remained on his cheeks. With a single finger he burned away the remains of his moment of weakness before continuing he discourse, "I forgot the name given to me so long ago, so I remained with that which I was. Have you ever forgoten your name?" It was uncommon for Lich to speak to anyone other then his master. For a moment he looked at Tammi and thought he recognized another of whom he served. Perhaps this false illusion was creating the lie of friendship he thought he felt. Regardless, he caught himself before she could answer and decided to gaze across the room at his master's place of dwelling. "I could make it bigger. This room. This house. I can give you better tools, appliances, weapons. You do not have to dwell as a street rat." He turned to face Jason, "you have found an inexhaustable treasure. Use it."

jason froze as lich called him a street rat. he ran to the door and peered out. "just because i share an apartment doesn't mean i'm a street rat. right now i'm using my money from the hospital to help fund me while i develop videogames. i'm hoping to start a company but for now i'm just working on my first one. also, i don't need better tools or weapons because..." he walked to a cabinet with a padlock on it. he unlocked it and pulled the door open. inside were many tools and weapons hung up. there was even a case wiith a dissasembled rpg in it. "i already have too much!"

"whats with all the commoti-" daniel froze in his tracks when he sighted tammi. he could not, however, see lich. he turned and looked at jacen with the cabinet. "jay, close that thing up. you know the fbi is already suspicious of you." he turned back to tammi. he smirked grumpily. "well who's this then?!"

It did not bother Lich that he was turned down. Centuries of service taught him humility, or at least an apathetic version of one. Although he can say this much: he wasn't at all amused by the weapons cache. In fact Jason's greatest weapon stood right in front of him. In time he would come to realize this.

Lich turned around indifferently when Daniel came around the corner. He had watched him get up when Jason opened the weapons safe. Plus he knew he couldn't see him. Until he looked suspiciously upon Tammi. Now it wasn't Lich's place to act so defensively. Tammi wasn't his master. And yet after so many years of dormancy his memory was beginning to act up. There was something about her that reminded him...of...

Tammi bristled when Lich continued on with Jason. Oh well, he had nothing to do with her really and that was ok. But once Daniel walked in and referred to her, she struggled to keep her mouth shut. All she could do was look down at her hands and listen quietly, letting Jason and Daniel talk. She sighed softly and sat back, one leg gracefully crossed over the other.

Edward jerked his elbow back to where the girls throat would be and then punched her with the back of his fist as he turned around. "That was quite obvious, Kiki," he smiled that godlike smile of his. "I expected more of you. And just to let you know, my skin is as hard as marble. So your impressive blades won't be harming me."

np I dont mind as long as it's more than one line. ^^ You all have been doing a wonderful job in here!))

Kiki grinned and canted her head to the side, her neck cracking and her jaw pushing itself back into place. "I know. I wasn't expecting you to be surprized. I just like toying with you. And your skin doesn't matter because I have all the time in the world to play with you... And that is because I'm not alone. That's right love, I'm not the only one after Jason and his beloved Tammi." She grinned and raised her weapon/hand. "Let's see what you can do Edward."

jason stood there, frozen. his mind raced for an excuse. "um, shes a friend from the hospital. i just invited her over for pizza." he closed the cabinet quickly. "and i was just checking to make sure it was all here." his breathing slowed as he calmed down. 'bing' went the oven timer. "oh, that must be it now." he ran to the kitchen to get the pizza out of the oven.

daniel stod there, still grimacing. "all right then, but make sure you get her home by 12. i'm having a cs😖ource lan party." he walked away.

Lich watched Daniel as he left the room. One would say he looked with complete and utter indifference because the manner in which he broke the silence seemed to convey just that, "do you always seem to find yourself within the company of the selfish and conceited? Or have I happened to chance upon a rare encounter?"

He still did not take his eyes off of where Daniel left until, after going to where Daniel had disappeared from, he turned to look at Jason.

This hotel room was a pittance compared to the extravagant palaces and fortresses that Lich had once inhabited. For once feelings of discomfort and disgust seem to shake from their long rest and creep within his thoughts. Even Brom never took him to his house. Lich was well aware that once Brom lost all ties to family and friends he decided to live with those whom he shared a bond with: the dead. In this sense Lich accepted his new home as Brom did, and together they got along just fine.

Lich paced around the room before coming to a window that gazed outside. He didn't bother to look out towards the city, it never changed in its form and he never changed in hating it. No, he always looked out towards the sky and his face seemed to tilt in longing for it. He pressed his hand against the glass before catching himself in its reflection, looking towards his hand, and scraping against the surface as he pulled the hand away. Aside from the marks on the window left by the fingers, the screech was simply deafening. "Sorry," Lich muttered apathetically, "I hope that wasn't of too much discomfort."

jason stepped out of the kitchen. in his hand he held a plate with a large pizza on it. he set it down on the living room table. "oh don't worry, we hear all kinds of noises from the nieghbors after midnight. the most common being loud moaning. but enough of that. lets eat." he sat and just as he reached for a piece..."oh wait, drinks..." he turned to tammi. "what would'a tha' lady lik'a tonight'a." he said in his best fake italian accent.

Tammi frowned and stood up from the couch, looking at Lich's reflection in the window. "The only thing that is discomforting is how sad you look... If you long to be were the sky touches the earth then you may stay in my summer home. It's far out of town in the mountains. The windows there are full length. So they run from the ceiling to the floor. There are mirrors throughout the house too. It's beautiful when the sun sets...I'm sure you'd be able to find it... And I hope you use it, because I am not able to go out there very often anymore." She gave him a warm smile before walking over to the table were Jason was. She raised a brow and grinned. "Oh, water would be fine my good Sir."

Edward surged forward. He shifted from left to right trying to confuse Kiki. He spun out of the way when she swung her weapon and was behind her with his hand around her throat.

"Now I'd appreciate it if you would be so kind to tell me who else is after Tammi and Jason. And also how you were brought back from the dead.

Kiki flinched as his hand tightened around her throat. "I dont know ow they brought me back but they did a terrible job at it. And as for my partner, well I'd rather you snap my neck. I'm not telling you anything, and to tell you the truth love I coul easily slip out of your grasp and track them down. Now let me go... I have many people to see before the sun rises." She smiled and glanced back at him. "You know, if you wern't trying to kill me and if I wasn't already in a relationship, I'd consider going out with you." She grinned and waited for his response. "It must be that smile of yours."

"Oh, water would be fine my good Sir."

Lich did not bother to acknowledge the sentiment. He had the world at his finger tips, and he would be able to take them to places where the sun sets in aurora colors. Where mountains are untouched by the poison of man's presence. Where oceans are blue with purity and the grass is never a prettier green. Yet all these places he has been and still he is sorrowful. These beauties are for men who look at them with dying eyes, he thought, not for gods who look upon their beauty and envy the eyes of man. Lich stood a comfortable distance away from where Jason was sitting to allow him to eat. If anything wit would be for courtesy for he knew how easily people lose their appetites around him.

"Master," he hissed standing erect and proud, "why did you summon me? Is there anything to which you wish of me? Any service or desire your wish fulfilled?"

Tammi flinched at his words and looked down blankly at her Pizza. 'He's so cold... But I dont blame him. He's been alive a lot longer then most of the vampires in this city.' She bit her lip and looked up at Jason, wondering what he'd say.

jason came back from the kitchen, two plates in his hands and 2 cups on them. he put one plate in front of tammi and put the other one in front of him. he grabbed his cup and drank the sprite from it. he looked at lich as he picked up a slice of pizza. "i needed to ask you a question." he bit a slice off. " or rather, ask you for a favor." he chewed the pepperoni and cheese for a few seconds, then swollowed it. "could you find that girl from the ware house and tell me where she is?" he grinned.

Tammi raised a brow and took a dainty bite of pizza. "Why do you want to know where Kiki is? She's probably off killing something.. Uh oh.. Speaking of Kiki I have to get back to the hospital and report what I've seen. Everyone is going to flip when they hear Kiki is alive." She wiped her mouth and went to get her coat from the couch.
