Katt Ameline and Kai Ameline
(Eyes & Blood)
Kai and Katt had followed everyone through the corridor, keeping their distance and staying to the back of the crowed. Katt seemed to think the hall went on forever, especially since she couldn't see it as the others did, all it seemed like was endless walking. But finally, the two ended up in a large room Kai noticed had all the chairs numbers with their numerical symbols, how quaint. He and Katt were never ones to sit down in a room full of strangers or people who could be potentially dangerous, especially in this room of psychos, Kai wasn't about to make himself comfortable, he rarely did anyways - he had his sister to take care of. As everyone made themselves comfortable, Swain introduced himself and started speaking, the fact that his face was hidden was not a surprise to Kai, but he thought it made him more than cowardly. The harvesters could go out and risk their lives and show their faces to everyone, but Swain, he seemed to oh so powerful could not. How surprising. His speech about the company was of no interest to him, and his sister seemed to get nothing from it at all, he could see her glance at him occasionally to see how he was responding to this. However, it was the horrific scene which got his attention.
One of the harvesters burst out into some fit about things, and one seemed to find it ever so amusing. Is was disgusting, disturbing, and he was glad that Katt couldn't see it. The upside to her lack of sight, she couldn't see everything in this world as the others could. She did however seem to understand, it was explained, what had happened to her - he saw her cringe a bit next to him. She did have an imagination, what was worse was she saw that dead - so she never liked hearing about them. It did occur to him, that she might even be able to communicate with the secretary, but that was mostly possible if one was in the area of the death or if one knew the person. There were of course rare occurrences where they followed her. The whole thing didn't sit well with Kai, the step down business, he just imagined more bodies like that of the secretary. The reactions of the harvesters were just as he thought, they were so desensitized, some even liked it, most probably had done similar themselves. He wondered if they were always like this, or the underworld made them this way. How did they stay sane? It was true Kai has changed a bit, but he held on to sanity. He could only figure it was because they had one another.
Katt looked around at the words not allowing everyone to harm the innocent. She didn't know this world held true innocent people, Kai had always told her no one in this world is innocent, this always made her think of herself. He always gave her a forced smile and said she was the only one. She didn't know how this was true with blood having been on her hands. Afterwards, Swain, whom she immediately wasn't fond of assigned them to jobs - and partners. She looked at Kai who was not amused, in the least. This was their first real job, so to speak, and she knew Kai wasn't fond of people, it had always just been the two of them. Katt had always wanted to be around other people, people that weren't dead, but the people in the underworld were...different. She was feeling conflicted, it was almost giving her a headache.
Kai grabbed a black letter, one which was given to all the harvesters, and one for he and his sister. He had thought maybe he would just be with Katt, they would be their own team, but upon reading it he crumpled up the letter within his hand find yourselves a team. "This is such a waste of time." he said, looking around at the harvesters. He didn't want to work with any of them, and he thought Katt shouldn't have to be near any of them. "Kai, what did it say?" after a long moments silence he responded, "Nothing, it didn't say anything." Katt folded her arms and titled her head. "I am the human lie detector, so tell m the truth." It was true, she could see through anyone. "We have to pair up with an existing team." he said, sounding quite bitter. "I don't think there is a person in here that wouldn't kill the person next to them, just for the hell of it." Katt looked around at all the different auras, "Do we...get to choose?" Her question not really directed to anyone, she then watched the auras move around, and it seem many of them were heading out of the room or grouping up already.
