The Queen of the Bright Blue Fire of Greed: Rukimu Crossfire


Image
Image


Name: Rukimu Crossfire

Alias: Rukimu the Queen of Greed

Human Alias: Ruki Blu

Gender: Female

Human Appearance: Rukimu is tall, standing around 5'10" with a slender figure resembling one of a Victoria Secret "Angel" model. Her chosen body is a woman in her early twenties. She has long wild dark brown hair that spirals down to her lower back. She has wide brown eyes that resemble almost a look of innocence. Yet anger and darkness surround the darkened pupils and heavy eyelashes. Though the original color of her eyes are a chocolate brown, Rukimu's eyes change color at certain times depending on her mood or mind set. Brown is a neutral color in her human state or default color. Green means she is interested, curious, or plotting. Blue means she is angry, vicious, and deadly. She has a small nose and mouth with a very angled face. Her neck is slender and long. With her shoulders back and her chin stuck in the air, the rest of her body falls like a curtain of evil elegance below her. Her legs are long and end with small feet. The darkness within the demon queen is felt through the heavy aura of the human body. A long scar slashes across her right thigh, coming to be around ten inches in length.

Personality: Rukimu is the greediest of all the demon lords. Her hunger for power, control, and Invento Hell is unrivaled. Cruel and unforgiving, she is known to destroy even her own high tedlars for power and kills all those who stand in her path. Hostile and aggressive, she will not hesitate to crush anyone and all who oppose her, stand as a threat, or simply whom she does not agree with their existence. She will bend and break to achieve what she wants. Darkness emits rays of shadows from her heart. Motivation is key for her. If she does not care, she will not bother and will not allow herself to be bothered. She believes herself to be the most high of all the lords and the one destined for power. Humans to her are cattle and serve only as lunch. Strategic, manipulating, and evil, she will exploit the people around her and their abilities to benefit her. She does not work for anyone, but herself and her motives. She is resourceful and smart, but is highly egotistical and adores herself. To shower her with compliments could either make you live longer, or make your death slow and painful. She's sadistic and enjoys the pain and suffering of others.

Likes:
Power
Control
Blue fire
Victory
Speed
Human males as a "food" choice

Dislikes:
Losing
Opposition
Insults
Human females
The other lords (especially the North)
Challenges

Distinguishing Power:Rukimu can control time in the human realm to alter time in a certain space and freeze them as well. Her abilities include freezing time in a given area of which she decides. She can cause others to be still and almost "trapped" in time or in the past time if she chooses. Rukimu is limited to only freezing time at a certain moment and cannot rewind or forward time as she pleases. Therefore she cannot do time travel unless she is to freeze someone and allow them to be "frozen in time" for years. They would not have aged, but trapped in that moment. She cannot freeze the world and allow one person and herself to be unfrozen. Not enough Invento Hell exists for her to do that. She can also absorb an entire demon or human corpse's energy and convert that to Invento Hell. This ability requires a certain amount of Invento Hell and she is careful not to use up more than she will receive from the corpse. Blue fire also surrounds her footsteps where ever she walks. Only she can choose to use the fire. It is not a weapon until she gets angry and lets the fire grow wild. The flames size increases in relation to any sort of excitement or stress Rukimu is feeling such as tension or anger.

In Hell. The Western Realm.

Rukimu gazed at her kingdom, a large area of red, black, and blue land. Her fingers snapped and three mid-level tedlars appeared kneeling before her. She stood above them and whispered, "News from the North?" The youngest of the tedlars looked up at her, worry and fear etched in his face. "Enenra has abandoned his realm and transported to Earth. We are unsure of who sent a hunter to take him down, but we have heard that he is being killed. The land is available to be claimed," his tone quavered at the end. They all were unsure of how Rukimu would take the news. She could either lash out in anger that someone could have possibly gotten to her prey first and that Enenra left this place for humans. Or she would be happy and pleased because of it. Finally after a few tension-filled moments, another one of them cleared their throats, "More power for you, Queen Rukimu." The Queen smiled and ordered the three to rise. "How wonderful," her body moved gracefully around them. "Now listen to me." Her fingers wrapped around their shoulders and her voice dropped to a dangerously low whisper. "I want to kill Enenra and take over his realm. Now, I bet the other two want the land as well, but of course I want it more," she moved away from them and smirked. "Bring Ginta to me. I wish to travel to Earth and kill that human loving demon myself. I will take Ginta. I trust that the rest of you will hold down the fort," she turned her back and started down the stairs that led down into her "bedroom".

Behind her, the three dispersed to amend their master's commands. The blue flames around her feet rose to be two feet as her excitement pulsed in her chest. She licked her lips nearly tasting the power that would come from the newly acquired land. The Invento Hell surged through her veins as they sensed more of them coming. She now needed a new vortex to inhabit and another one for her most trusted tedlar, Ginta. He shared her hunger for power and held the same personal greed as she did. Ginta, though, was in love with his master. Rukimu never allowed herself such feelings. Heat surrounded her and Ginta appeared behind her, his handsome face smirking in pleasure, obviously tasting the new power as Rukimu just was. "I found a vortex for you and one for me. I ask you for your commands, my beautiful queen." He bowed.

Turning to face him, she placed her arms around his neck as he rose. "We leave soon. I wish to find the Eastern Lady, I believe she too resides on Earth. She can help us capture Enenra. Then, with or without her, we slash the beating heart out of that human loving coward," her tone was almost loving. His death played over in both their minds, the image of him suffering sending a shiver of joy down her body. "As you wish," Ginta disappeared into the air.

On Earth. One Day Later

Rukimu tossed her long brown hair over her shoulder and looked about as she crossed the human filled streets. This world was a big change compared to her realm. She didn't like much of it, because of the population of humans, which alive, she disliked. The scent of the Eastern Lady led her to this town. It wasn't small, nor was it huge. Unimpressed, Rukimu entered a restaurant to feed a little bit of hunger growing in her stomach and to casually meet up with one of her subordinates who was searching for Calla. She ordered a table for two saying that a friend of hers was going to meet her. She chose that seat farthest to the back of the restaurant. Her eyes drifted around the place and found herself feeling disgusted. She was in a eatery with humans. Making a face, she averted her attention to an approaching waitress. She ordered something small just to order something. Human food was never really appetizing to her.

Her alias as of recently is Ruki Blu. She was a nurse and was supposed to be on vacation with her sister in Hawaii when she died in a freak car accident. Ginta approached her and smiled, his pale face calm and collected. He wore his human male well. His human name was Henry. "Ruki, I'm so sorry I'm late," he said. They liked to play along with their roles as humans, it was a sick joke to them using dead souls as their body puppets. "Oh its fine, Henry," she smiled and touched his hand. "Any news from the north?"

"I heard a woman's body was found lying dead on the streets. A hole was found in her chest," his eyes steeled a bit. "It was Enenra's vortex. The tedlar sent to take care of him seems to have failed and Enenra has taken another human. I lost his scent after that." Rukimu leaned back in her seat, trying to keep calm. The fire around her ankles burned lightly against her skin as she fought with her emotions to keep calm. She was unsure whether to be excited or disappointed or happy. "I seems I can still finish the job," she smirked. "Calla?"

"Ah, yes," Ginta, or Henry, replied, "she is here. But I cannot figure out why she has stationed here for such a long time. Her aura and her tedlars' auras have lingered here longer than normal. I suspect something is going on with her."

"Oh never mind that," Rukimu said with excitement. "I'll get her to fight with us. We just have to find her first. Then Enenra is mine."

Otae opened his eyes the next morning, feeling somewhat empty. Like he was merely an shell of a body without a soul. Then suddenly all the memories came back to him in a flash, and he started hyperventilating. "T-theres no way that was real, right? Theres so such things as tedlars, right? Yeah. It was just a weird dream. Ahahaha!" He started speaking hysterically after his breathing had calmed, before breaking into a laugh.
'No such thing as tedlars? Don't be such a fool. Besides, its impossible for you to dream while I am around.' Otae stopped laughing immediatly after the oh-so-familiar voice spoke.
"No way... It wasn't a dream after all?" Otae sighed, seeming more dissapointed than he did surprised.
'Don't tell me you forgot about our deal, Otae. We need to gather over 1,000 Invento Hell to bring you back to life, remember?'
"I get it already. Just give me some time to process everything,... Er... What was your name again?" Otae asked.

'You are truly hopeless... My name in Enenra. Remember this time!' Enenra exclaimed, annoyed. "Ah, right. Enenra. So who exactly are these guys who are after you, anyway?" Otae asked. 'Those who are after me happen to be 3 of the 4 tedlar lords. Calla Tor of the East, Masae Tamura from the South, and Rukimu Crossfire of the West. She is by far the most dangerous of the three. They all have hundreds of servant under them who will also be attacking us. The one you killed last night was one of Masae's tedlars. She will most likely be the first tedlar lord we face, since we tedlar lords can sense when out servants die and who is responsible for their death.' Enenra explained. "3? What about the tedlar lord of the North?" Otae questione. 'Ah... Well. You see. The tedlar lord of the North is...' Enenra began, obviously hesitant to answer this question. "Well? Who is this North? Out with it already." Otae ordered, getting a little impatient. 'The the tedlar of the North is... me.' Enenra finished, awaiting Otae's response. "Oh? Is that it? To be truthful, I kind of guessed that was the case." Otae stated bluntly as he began putting on his informal-ware.
"Man. Weekends are the best!" He exclaimed. 'Does anything ever surprise you that doesn't involve mortal wounds?' Enenra asked.

"Hm? Not really. I just figured if I have to live with you living in my head for a while, I'll have to start getting used to unnatural things." Otae responded, heading into the bathroom and looking into the mirror, while readjusting his bedhead. 'Tedlars ussually don't reveal themselves in broad daylight, so I suppose we are safe for the time being. We should try and search for low-ranked tedlars or the weaker mid-level tedlars like Unis.' Enenma stated.
"Too troublesome. I don't have time to go around hunting your kind." Otae replied, grabbing his toothbrush and toothpaste. 'Is that so? Then what exactly do you plan on doing today? I wouldn't mind seeing how humans spend their everyday lives. I came her to experience it for myself afterall'
"Isn't that obvious?" Otae began before spitting out the tooth paste residue in the sink, then rinsing his mouth out with water. "I'm gonna pick up some chicks!" He exclaimed proudly. 'Pick up some chicks you say? What possible amusement could you derive from picking up prepubescent egglaying, fowls? They are quite loud, and irritating.' Enenra responded. Otae shook his head. Before grabbing his housekeys and walking out the front door. "You have absolutely no idea, Enenra."

Otae eyed ever girl he could lay his eyes on, wearing a serious expression as he sat upon the park bench.
'This atmosphere is so serious. Its as if you're stalking prey, rather than searching for a mate.' Enenra replied. 'Who said I was looking for a mate? Do you know how hard it is to find a girl who will sleep with you on a first date at my age? There are no decent girls around at the moment anyway.' Otae responded, making sure not to speak to Enenra out loud while he is in public. 'A date? What is that?' Last I heard it was some type of fruit. Why would you bed your female counterpart on top of a fruit? Enenra asked, innocently. 'Quit making humans seem so complicated... Hey Enenra. Earlier this morning you said that its impossible for me to dream. Is that the case with all humans who have tedlars inside them?' Otae asked. 'Well... Seeing as most humans who are inhabited by tedlars are unable to control their own bodies unless the tedlar permits them to, yes. But you can't dream because of me for a different reason.'
'Oh? What exactly would this reason be?' Otae asked, slightly interested.

'I possess an ability that no other tedlar has. I can consume dreams, nightmares, and anything involving spiritual energy in general.' Enenra explained.
'Seriously? How come no other tedlar can do that? What makes you so special?'
'I do not know that answer myself. I have been able to consume dreams ever since I can remember. They serve as somewhat of an replacement for Invento Hell for me. You see, Invento Hell is more than just the power we tedlars use to fight. It is our very essence. Our life source. To run out of Invento Hell means to die. Of course even with my dream eating ability, I will still die if I run out of Invento Hell. That is why I pressed you not to waste it when we were fighting Unis.'
'So that basically means that overusing your Invento Hell will kill you, and if you die then I die?' Otae asked.
'That is correct. This is also the reason I want you to kill weak tedlars so that we can get more Inveno Hell. We are not yet at a level to where we can take on the tedlar lords or even their high tedlar... Hey Otae. Are you listening?' Enenra asked, noticing that Otae had stopped paying attention.

"Shes got a nice body." Otae said aloud, while starring at a beautiful brunette who had just wandered into a small resteraunt. After a little bit a man also entered the resteraunt and approached her, appearing to be quite familiar with the woman. "Damn. Looks like shes already take." Otae commented, kind of dissapointed.
'Do you even realize how dire our situation is? How can you remain so calm?'
'Weren't you the one who told me to calm down earlier? Let me at least enjoy myself a little before you go on about killing tedlars and collecting Invento whatever.' Otae replied, arrogantly. 'They're called Invento Hell! And that was only because we would have been killed then if you had kept panicking!' Enenra yelled, feeling quite frusterated with Otae. Otae let out a laugh, before getting up off of the bench. 'Very well. Then why don't we start searching for these so-called weak tedlar?'

Rukimu decided it was best that she gain as much Invento Hell before facing Calla Tor just in case the confrontation turned sour. She sent Ginta to gather more information regarding the Eastern Lady. The new body she possessed was beginning to tire despite her everlasting endurance. The body itself was in weaker shape then she had previously anticipated. After about one hour of wandering around the city, she rested on a park bench. The sky was showing signs of rain as the clouds rolled in, darkening as they passed. They swelled up and shifted as the wind moved west. Rukimu glared at the sky. Her favor did not rest in rain or becoming wet. She had no place of dwelling in this realm, nor had she instructed Ginta to provide her with one. Sighing at her ignorance, she stretched out. "Excuse me, miss?" a raspy male voice called from her right. Rukimu turned with an instinctive steel gaze and found a handsome man in his late twenties or early thirties staring at her. He wore casual jeans and a dark blue polo shirt with a black jacket. "Do you happen to know what time it is? My cellphone ran out of battery," he smiled innocently. Rukimu shed her sharp gaze and shifted to a look of innocence. "Time?" she smiled, "sure," she checked her phone as the man approached. She told him the time though she saw a shiny Rolex he was hiding under his jacket.

"Thank you," he said. "And I didn't catch your name." Rukimu smiled sweetly and noticed that no one was around them. She had not eaten yet and he looked like a strong man. A dead corpse similar to his own would give her a significant amount of Invento Hell and also serve as a delicious human meal. "Ruki Blu," she stood to greet him. The man was taller than she was, around 6'1" with slick black hair and a dentist worthy smile. "Miss Blu, my name is Kurt Lane," he said. "Are you busy? I would love to offer you something to eat," Again he flashed her a dazzling smile. Rukimu nearly gagged at the offer. Yet her face remained kind and willing. Innocent puppy eyes stared into Kurt's blue eyes. "Sure, I would like that," she said and began to walk with him.

Rukimu emerged from an alley. She dusted off her skinny jeans and fixed her long brown hair before blending in with the crowd. New energy surged through her body. Kurt Lane would be a shell of a man. His body shriveled, but recognizable, as if he were one hundred and three years old. "Let the local police get a load of that," she thought with a smirk. She hung around the crime scene a bit longer before she heard an elderly woman scream. "Call the police! Get Lieutenant Daisetsu Koudou! It's Dr. Lane! His body! Oh my god, he's dead!" A few more shrieks and mournful cries sounded and Rukimu left. Kurt Lane was a new doctor at a local hospital and the son of Jacob Lane, a world renown surgeon. He was well known amongst the townspeople. "Oops," Rukimu whispered as she walked north.

Turning a corner, she found a small candy shop with small children reeking havoc among the store owners. Their parents were no where to be found. Rukimu found it slightly annoying. She found a group of older human children which included the notorious player named Otae Takamiya. His body pulsed with supernatural aura. A child offered her candy and she gave the boy an evil glare. He ran away, shivering with fear. Before she would have to interact with more humans she turned the other corner, but not before giving Otae a long, curious and an unintentionally extreme flirtatious gaze. His aura was too strong to be that of a normal human. The energy that pulsed around him was calling to her. The Invento Hell she could gain from his corpse ran circles around her mind. She wanted it. Rukimu stood a couple of blocks from where the candy shop was and trying to track the boy's body. The supernatural elements in his body were too weak to be that of a high tedlar, let alone a Lord. She did not think Enenra's spirit would be so weak. Yet the aura did not seem hostile, almost subdued in a twisted sense. She thought it might be a mid-level tedlar. She would take one on easily and she wanted more Invento Hell. This body, she thought, would be perfect. If she could only get the young boy alone... He would end up just like Dr. Lane...

'So... How exactly were we supposed to find these tedlars again, Enenra?' Otae asked after having had wandered around for about 5 minutes.
'You really don't listen, do you? Tedlar ussually don't reveal themselves in broad daylight. If we're going to catch one during the daytime, then we'll need to do it in a secluded area. At least somewhere where we won't be spotted. But then again, it also leaves us wide up for stronger tedlar to attack.' Enenra replied.
'Seriously? This really is more trouble than its worth.' Otae remarked. 'Is it worth more than your life? I would imagine so. Wouldn't you, Otae?'
'...Shut up. I don't wanna be outsmarted by some stu-'

"Yo, Takamiya!" Otae began before he was cut off by a male voice. It had come from Kitomaru, a fellow classmate of his. Kitomaru was with a few of Otae's other classmates, for some reason hanging around a candy shop. 'Some what now?' Enenra asked.
'Great. Just what do these guys want?' Otae sighed before walking towards the group. 'Hey! Don't ignore me! What were you about to say?!'
"So, Takamiya. Did you get Takizawa's digits? How far did you get with her?" One of the other classmates asked him chuckling.
"Ah, Takizawa. I got her mail, but I haven't really planed anything yet." Otae responded. "Huh? I figured a playboy like you would have already gotten in-"
"Please don't talk about me as if you actually know me. I assure you, I have a much more complex character than that." Otae responded, starring the boy right in the eye. "Now if you'll excuse me. I don't have time to waste on the likes of you." Otae said, walking past the group. He could have sworn he heard a couple of them cursing him behind his back.

'That was kind of cool, Otae.' Enenra complimented him, somewhat impressed. 'You think so? Try not to fall for me.' Otae replied with a chuckle.
'Why would I fall down for no good reason? Do you think I'm a cluts?' Enenra asked. '...You really need to update your knowledge of presentday termonology.' Otae stated, before he noticed someone starring at him. He turned to see the same woman from before was now standing not too far away, giving him the most seductive glare. 'Oh? Maybe she just dumped that guy from earlier. Lucky.' Otae thought to himself, forgetting that Enenra could read his thoughts.
'Although I'm not really sure what dumping someone means, I can tell that you are thinking of something unpure. Seriously, Otae.' Enenra lectured.
'Keep your opinions to yourself. I don't need you interfering with my love life.' Otae replied, beginning to make his way over to the woman.
Wait, Otae! I don't trust that woman... Something seems off about her. Enenra stated, noticing that the woman gave off an almost inhuman aura. He couldn't distinguish it very well, but just had a feeling. 'Why is that? You sure you're not just jealous?' Otae replied. 'Otae...'
'Fine, fine. If it makes you feel so uncomfortable, I'll let her go 'this' time.' Otae said, turning around and heading to wherever his legs took him.

After a little while Otae noticed another girl with long, black hair. The woman didn't seem much older than Otae, yet still had an air about her that made her seem dignified and mature. She was also quite the looker, and caught Otae's interest. 'What do you think, Enenra. She a tedlar?' Otae joked, while walking up to her.
'I don't know. But if you are going to approach her, then be careful.' Enenra responded, not noticing that Otae was being sarcastic.
"Hey there, miss. My named is Takamiya Otae. If I may ask, what would your name happen to be?" Otae asked the woman, before bowing liesurely in greeting. However, there was one thing that both Otae and Enenra failed to notice. This woman had a little bit of blood on her clothes.

Rukimu drummed her fingers on her pant leg in annoyance as the human's aura disappeared. Licking her lips, she could feel the hunger growling in the pit of her stomach. Her dainty brown eyes had shifted to a pale green from the step up in interest in the human boy. Specks of a deep blue, signalling hostility and anger, appeared in her eyes as the sky continued to darken into rain clouds above her. The hunger was too much and she charged in the direction where she last felt Otae's presence. Her pale green eyes now shifting to a complete navy blue. The flames around her feet, invisible to regular human eyes, rose to grow above her knees. The thought of letting prey slip out of her hands made her feel insulted. Now, she was out for revenge and also to feed the demon hunger that burned inside of her.

Infuriated and paying no attention to her surroundings, the Queen failed to notice that she had taken a short cut into a dark back alley. Rukimu had entered the poorer part of the town unknowingly and also the area with a higher crime rate. It was closed off by a tall metal gate in the center and a garbage disposal crate. The smell went up her nose and she gagged at the scent. "Humans are repulsive," she spat and glared at the black bags filled with trash. A rat scurried past her feet and she burned its body with the bright blue flames around her ankles with a 1 degree shift of her left foot. "Human pest," she growled.

Turning around to exit the way she came because her path was blocked, Rukimu found herself faced with three large men all eyeing her like a piece of meat. Rukimu rolled her eyes. Human males were attractive sometimes, like Kurt Lane, but these men were disgusting. No one needed to be a mind reader to know the sick intentions that rode around in their twisted brains. Rukimu would admit, her brain was twisted and sick too, but she would never allow herself to be put into the same category as lifeless, pathetic males such as the ones she faced. "Hey cutie," the one in the middle with ugly teeth bellowed. "Got a name?" The two that flanked him laughed as they slowly came forward. She honestly did not want to use up her Invento Hell on them, but they would provide her with decent Invento Hell. Possibly more than Kurt Lane. Now she was only after the energy, the food aspect was long gone with the smell of sewage and the visual of their unshaven, mucky faces. "Crossfire," she hissed and stepped forward.

Stretching her arms out, she froze the two men in place approaching her and ran forward. She jumped and push kicked the large man in the chest and flipped backwards in the air landing in front of him. Her blue eyes twinkled as she lit him up with her blue flames. He could not see the fire, but he certainly felt it. The sensation was more than just burning, it was like fire on an open wound with a never ending rain of acid and poison. She watched his eyes roll inside out and his once strong body falling like a fragile deck of cards under him. She hovered her hands above his head and absorbed his energy. Smiling as she did so, he feel back with a blow of air from her lips.

Making quick work of the other two, she unfroze them at the same time and stood behind them. She turned the lights out on the man to her right with a solid fist and a right leg side kick to his nose. Rukimu then grabbed the top of his head and side of his face and twisted sharply, snapping the neck. His dead weight dropped to the floor. She placed both palms on top of his chest and erupted with chills of adrenaline as the Invento Hell rushed into her body.

The last man stood frozen in fear in the corner. Rukimu rushed forward and jumped so that she was above him. With her right hand, she shifted all her weight into her fist and slammed down a hammer fist on top of his bald skull. Snapping his neck the same as the last one, she completed killing all three men. Exhilarated, her heart pounded and her blue eyes dulled to a paler blue, meaning evil joy. It only appeared when she made an invigorating kill, or several kills. Laughter erupted from her body as she tried to sneak out of the alley without being seen. Luckily the sky was darkening. And then it began to rain.

The girl was obviously deep in thought before Otae had confronted her. Once she took notice of him, he had already repositioned himself, probably meaning she missed his bow. Minor setback in showing off his gentleman qualities. Otae was surprised with the complete and utter look of disgust she gave him, and almost wondered if he should just let this one go as well. Then the girl spontaneously reverted back to a cute girl almost instantly. She even began giggling.
'That was a little strange...' Otae thought.
"Me. I'm Tamura. If you are lucky you might learn my given name." The girl said as she pointed to herself. The mature, adult-like vibe she gave of earlier had completely deminished. Now she was acting like a cute, flirtatious highschool girl.
'What do you mean? She seems fairly normal to me, Otae. Although her last name does trouble me a little...' Enenra replied, even though Otae having not really been listening, didn't know why her last name worried Enenra.

Otae quickly looked back to see if the seductive woman from earlier was behind him. 'Huh. Guess she wasn't following me afterall. I could have sworn...' Otae thought.
He then quickly turned back to Tamura and smiled. "Well, Tamura-chan. I do hope that I get the luxury of learning your first name. I'm sure that it is a beautiful one at that." Otae responded, suavely. Just before Otae was about to ask Tamura if she wanted to go on a date with him, he was interupted by Enenra.
'Otae... Something doesn't feel right all of a sudden...'
'Oh please. Are you sure you're not just getting jealous?' Otae replied, not taking Enenra seriously.

All of a sudden an immense hostile energy surged through Otae's body. "W-what the hell? Enenra. Are you doing this?" Otae asked outloud in a panick.
'Fool! Don't say my name out loud! Anyway, we have to run now. A powerful tedlar has sensed us and isn't bothering to hide their power... I think it may be a tedlar lord.' Enenra replied. 'Sorry... S-seriously?! Shit!' Otae exclaimed in his head before grabbing Tamura's hand and rushing foward at top speed. He didn't care where he was going, as long as he was getting away from whatever was chasing him. 'Why are you taking her with us?! You're only endangering this girl's life by doing that!'
Enenra exclaimed. Otae looked back at her with his eyes while he was still running. He hadn't even noticed that he had snagged her. 'Damn it. Well its too late now...'
"S-sorry. But I need you to come with me real quick. Theres a dangerous person after me at the moment." Otae explained to her, as his breath began to grow heavy.

After a little while longer Otae stopped to catch his breath. 'Just give me a few seconds Enenra. I just need to rest a little.' Otae said.
'Its ok Otae. I think that the hostile figure is gone for now. We should be safe for the moment. But... What is a tedlar lord doing here? Its been forever since I've last met the other tedlar lords. Has their power really grown that much since then? Enenra replied, adding in his own thoughts.
'Wait. So you're telling me that the tedlar lords have gotten stronger than when you last saw them? When was that exactly?' Otae asked.
'Around... 280 years ago. We ussually keep to ourselves for the most part. It is on rare occasions that we ever meet up.' Enenra replied.
Otae stopped catching his breath and turned to see how Tamura was doing. He didn't exactly recall her gasping for air like he did, but then again he wasn't paying attention to her at the time either. "Um... Everything is ok now. We're safe." Otae told her.
'What do you mean we? What motive did you have to bring this girl along anyway? Enenra asked. Otae decided to ignore that question.
"Again. Sorry about all of that. I guess there isn't much hope on you going on a date with me now, huh?" Otae asked while trying to play the embarrassed, insecure, shy boy act while scratching his cheek nervously.

Masae was having fun with the boy when something odd started to happen. She felt some power rise and the name "Enenra" was stated. She felt like that name should have triggered something. But she then let it go and tried to find out where the power was coming from but that could mean exposing herself to find it but she would keep it hidden. The boy then grabbed her hand and started to run. When he has explained that someone dangerous was after him. 'So that could be the power i felt then.' she thought to herself. "Okay." she said a little quietly. After cutting a few corners they had finally come to a stop. He let go and started to breath heavily. The boy then apologized again and mentioned something about a date.

Masae then remembering that she was suppose to be a human doubled over and started to breath heavily. She stood up straight after a minute or so and said. "Well I think you might have a chance. That was the first time I have ever been whisked away before and it was kinda fun." She then smiled and patted him on the shoulder. "But the next time you wish to go on a run you should let me know so I can wear the right clothing." She then laughed. "Well now where to?"

Rukimu stood under a beam and hissed for Ginta. Her eyes were still dark blue, but this time her primary emotion was of annoyance and irritation. Ginta appeared within the minute and his eyes were joyous at first, but one look at the rainy conditions made his face drop to apologetic. "My Queen," he said sharply. One fierce glance from those ocean blue eyes made him shut his mouth. He could perform various spells to teleport quite easily on his own, but to carry a passenger was more work. Nonetheless, he could not deny his Queen his services, unless he wanted to be terminated. He teleported them to a small motel and checked in. He allowed Rukimu her own room.

"Find me new clothing," she growled walking into the more or less shabby unit. The floor was cheaply carpeted, but for once she didn't care about luxury. The wet clothing stuck to her body and she felt as if she was rolling in pig fat and had allowed insects to embrace her. The feeling was itching, uncomfortable, and disgusting. "Now!" she yelled, pondering whether to yell at him as well for providing her with a cheap place to stay. In reality, the unit was not cheap at all. It was a moderate living space with two full sized beds and clean white and brown sheets and blankets. A small television was set up opposite of the bed which had two fine working lamps by each bed side. The bathroom was fresh scented like roses and stocked with towels, shampoo, soap, and the whole lot of human essentials.

"Here, my eternal empress," he bowed and offered her two large shopping bags. It contained a blue pajama set and two outdoor clothes: two skinny jeans, one black and one a dark blue; three blouses; a regular blue tee; five pairs of socks; black sneakers; dark brown boots; and white sandals. He even remembered to pack her undergarments. Rukimu peered into the bags and was honestly impressed that he had brought her so much. An umbrella hid at the bottom of the second bag along with a large swiss army knife. "You may leave me now, Ginta," she ordered. He stood and pleaded into her eyes. He wanted to know why her energy level spiked so high before he met up with her. He had thought she had made a successful kill, which was spot on, yet she was behaving as if she had lost something. It was more because of the rain now. Rukimu didn't care about Otae anymore, or at least for the time being. "Later," she said softly, but firmly. "I want you to find Calla Tor in twenty four hours. I want you to do it so I don't have to get a tracker tedlar on her. Hurry. I wish to have a little fun with the local police. Maybe I can gather information regarding the original case where Enenra was involved. Sniffing him out isn't working. Maybe the humans can find him," she started to take off her clothes. Ginta quickly vanished. Rukimu looked into the mirror in the bathroom. "Beauty is power," she whispered. "And power is everything."

After an hour of plotting and calming herself down, Rukimu's eyes finally returned to a neutral brown. She left the motel, holding her umbrella to keep her from getting wet. She walked towards where she believed was the local police station and asked around about them. The locals seem to be worried about the deaths, but still foggy on details. Rumors are going around that its a serial killer, others say its aliens. Ruki pretended to be surprised and all. After about twenty minutes, she isolated a young woman around the age of thirty. Making sure there were no witnesses, she quickly stabbed the woman in the back and used her powers to imitate the wounds of the first victim of the unusual attacks. The victim that used to be Enenra's vortex. She burned the knife and got a little blood on her shirt. Screaming she ran into the police station. "Help! Help! A woman just got stabbed by a man in the alley! I think she's dead! Help! Please!"
