The girl still had yet to respond, layimg in his arms, her eyes glazed as the color shifted.
She suddenly blinked and reached up to rub her face as the marks faded. She look around, confused, "... How did we get here?"
She couldn't recall her attack or what happened during it.

"I brought you up here," Kaito murmured softly, gently shifting Aliya off of his lap. His eyes skated away from her face, unable to even look at her anymore. How could he condemn her to a life of pain and fear as a succubus? "You had a bit. of a.....an accident," the vampire finished lamely.
He maintained a careful distance between them, not wanting to force another change on her.

Aliya blinked, rubbing her face, "Accident...?"
The girl groaned, a headache building behind her temples from the sudden increase and decrease in magical energy.

Kaito saw the headache building and quickly reached out to touch her temples and massage them, gently pressing a bit of his magic into her body. Not enough to force her to change....he hoped.
"Does that feel better?"

"Yes, thank you," Aliya smiled. No change happened and she remained mortal.
The girl looked around and noticed more people staring than before, "Uhm... Kaito? What happened?"
(I'm waiting to see if Eschaton shows xD)

"You had a little incident on the dance floor," a smooth, silky voice inserted over Kaito's bumbled explanation. "You'll most likely be attracting some interest for the rest of the night, m'dear."
"Eschaton," Kaito greeted the Greek Master through gritted teeth. "I did not expect to see you here, brother."
The Master, who looked completely different from Kaito and around the same age, just laughed.
"I own this club, remember?"
Kaito growled a little at the annoying vamp, but relaxed enough to sling an arm over Aliya's shoulders. These two looked as unlike as any brothers could be, but they had been created within a few years of each other by the same vampiress and so counted themselves as blood family, though Kaito's power was slightly older and stronger than the Master's. "I try and forget occaisonally."
Eschaton ignored the Asian and looked to Aliya, sweeping her an elaborate bow.
"And who is this elegant showstopper that you're accompanying tonight?"
(*)
In the corner of the Immortals' section, Bastet snorted; her Master always laid it on a bit thick.

Aliya blinked at him, taking in the Greek's appearence, "... Aliya."
She leaned her weight into Kaito, the newcomer making her more uncomfortable than Jay had.

Eschaton grinned which made Kaito want to snarl, pleased at the answer; her name was a good one and, if he could collect her, then he'd be running an amazing show at his club- a succubus and his illusionist. Bastet, the Egyptian painter, slipped up next to Eschaton and that did make Kaito snarl, although belatedly because he'd become preoccupied with memorizing the feel of Aliya's weight leaned up against him.
"I should've known that you of all people would be funding her," the vampire growled, pulling Aliya tighter against his side and letting his magic rise up to push against Eschaton.
"Lovely name by the way," the Master managed to get in sideways while starting to push back at Kaito's power.
"You're not collecting her," the other vampire ground out.
"Wouldn't dream of it," the Greek lied easily. "Now Kai, we really don't want to be releasing this much....power after Aliya's," the Master practically purred her name, "ordeal."

The girl blinked, confused. The conversation wasn't making an ounce of sense to her.
The girl got up and held Kaito's hand, "We should go. I think we've had enough fun for one day."

Kaito nodded slowly, standing up behind Aliya and putting his arms around her waist.
"We will be going," Kaito said darkly to Eschaton, one more push of his massive power before he tucked it away into the small secret half of his chest. "And you won't be following."
Eschaton simply bowed mockingly and Bastet conjured up a Cheshire cat to grin at them as Kaito slowly pushed her down the stairs. The vampire glared at both of them and hissed.
"I'll walk you home Aliya," Kaito murmured.

The girl nodded, still holding onto his hand tight.
She led him out of the club, without a word, leading him down the street to her home.
She didn't like Eschaton. There was something about him... Just like jay. It rubbed her the wrong way. Yet, it made her feel power. And thus, nervous and excited.
Eiher way, she knew that she had to get out.

"You don't like Eschaton do you?" Kaito asked curiously. "Or Jay, though I understand that one. But.... Why can you stand me though? I'm so happy that you do, but why?"
He was still following behind the succubus and the hand that Aliya wasn't holding went up to yank on his bangs in frustration. He didn't understand at all, but he really wanted to. Was it because he reminded her of her brother?

"... I don't know. You give off the same energy but... There's something else..." Aliya murmured, pressing a finger to her lips in thought, "Its hard to explain."
The girl contiuned walking, holding on his hand. The other drifted up to catch the cross she wore.

Kaito flinched a little at the cross, but instead came up and slipped an arm over Aliya's shoulders.
"I'll take that for now," he murmured into the girl's ear softly. "But you're going to have to explain that a little bit better next time I ask."
At that moment, Kaito realized that he fully intended to meet up with Aliya again; it didn't matter to him if he might force her to change, he wanted to be next to her. He also had to make sure that Eschaton stayed away.
"Soo, where's this house of yours?"

Post by †Arisen† on Aug 13, 2010 9:54:31 GMT -5
"Near my work workplace," she informed him, "C'mon."
Aliya kept walking with him, then smiled up at him, standing on her toes to kiss his cheek.

Kaito stopped in the middle of the street, face lighting up with happiness. A big smile lit up his features and he slid his arms around Aliya's waist, picking her up a little.
"And may I inquire what that was for? And how may I get another right here?" Kaito tapped his other cheek.

"Doesit matter what it was for?" Aliya smiled, giggling., "You're cute. And you care about me, don't you?"
She started leading him again, giggling still.

Kaito smiled at Aliya's laughter; he was very fond of this girl even after just one date and he wanted her to stay very much his and away from Eschaton. The kiss had been a sweet gesture and he craved more attention from this girl that had inexplicably captured his interest.
"So, are you going to let me see this infamous apartment?"

"Mhmm... I'll consider it," Aliya teased as she led him around the corner, "I don't bring most guys home on the first date, mind you."
She led him to one of the larger apartment complexes and inside, taking him to the elevator. It seemed that despite working at a little-known bar, she was paid pretty well.

Kaito grinned as he stepped into the elevator behind Aliya, squeezing her waist teasingly as well; he was quite comfortable with slinging an arm around her by now and she fit perfectly against his lanky frame.
"I'll believe that. You seem like you're very private; I'm quite honored to have been invited into your home," the vampire answered, his speaking slipping into a more traditional, old fashioned dialect of English as he spoke. "It's a nice apartment complex, though."

Aliya smiled and nodded, "Isn't it? I'm glad I got this place."
She punched in the number for her floor and hummed softly, waiting patiently.

Kaito waited, a little less patiently then Aliya as he finally realized how late it was getting. He couldn't stay with this temptress for too long or, the next time he saw her, he'd be covered in third degree burns. The older he got, the more time he could spend in the sun, but even he couldn't make it from this part of town to where he was living.
While Aliya's apartment complex stood on the edge of the Immortal's District, Kaito had made his home far away from the accursed vampires, werewolves, demons and other myriad creatures that stalked the nights. His days were his own and he preferred to have somewhere he could enjoy the sunlight without being called out on how old he was or how powerful. All he wanted was to be...normal.

When the door opened again, Aliya smiled and led him out and down the hall. When she came to her door, she pulled out her keys from he wallet and unlocked the door.
"Here we are," she smiled. For an paartment, it was large, and the furnishings were close to those of a house, a couch and chair, a mall kitchen, a large bay window with the blinds closed and two doors leading out of the room, "Make yourself at home."

Kaito let out a low whistle at the impressive size of Aliya's apartment and wandered around the edge of it a little self consciously, looking a little out of place in the tidy apartment with his tattoos, scars, carefully messy hair and black clothes. The room was spacious and, while not as big as his own dwellings or as artistic, it had that sense of...home that his rooms didn't. He gave a small smile; he was glad that the succubus had been able to have a life that was happy enough that she could find a home despite her hidden heritage.
"This is amazing," he said, settling onto the couch and looking around. "Do you have a good view?"

"Sometimes. I can usually see a river, but theres a large tree blocking the way," she sighed softly and closed the door behind her, "I have a cat around here somewhere. Don't know where she went. She's really friendly."
Aliya locked the door and stretched, taking a seat on the chair, curling up in it. The girl looked tired, but didn't say if she was or not.

Kaito cringed slightly at the mention of a cat.
"Cats don't really like me that much. She's probably hiding," the vampire explained before examining her expression carefully. "You're tired. I should leave," he half-stood, torn between making sure that Aliya would be safe for the night by staying and getting home to where he would be safe. His interactions with women were usually fast and fueled by the need for sex, but being sweet and considerate really wasn't his style and he didn't know what to do in this situation.

"You can stay if you want," Aliya said slowly, "If you live far away, that is. There's a guest bedroom."
She pointed to one of the two closed doors from where she sat before standing and combing through her fingers.
"Are you hungry?"
Admittedly, she didn't want Kaito to leave so soon. They had jsut gotten ehre. However, she was unused to being around men and was wary. Kaito, however, made her feel comfortable. She wanted to explore that just a little more.

The vampire nodded slowly after a moment, finally deciding to stay with this Aliya that had so intrigued him.
"I live kinda far, so I would love to stay for tonight," he murmured, settling back into the chair and also nodding at the mention of food, a wry smile twisting his features into a sarcastic mask. "And I would love some food."
But I can only really satisfy myself if you give me your blood....

(xD I have. its my favorite of theirs lol)
The girl looked at him curiously at the second remark, "... Feel free to help yourself to anything from the fridge. I'll go see where that cat ran off too."
She moved to the guest bedroom, calling for the cat, Diana, it seemed.
