Night Universe

note to stormrider Im done posting with Tsukiakari someone who has 7 characters all in the same area and could introduce another one at any time .who cant seem to react to a changing situation as with a character being knocked out and wrote about how the character could have recovered ! as with the thing having 2 or more writers on a battle scene !


John simply walked out of the underground ! with a mantel of darkness trailing behind him!

"Sorry, I assumed anyone who would hang around you would be human. Was I wrong? I'm practically human, but I could see a fairy or witch helping you out, they can be a little too forgiving sometimes." Lucas commented and played with the guitar strings. His ears twitched at the sound of the owl's screech, he was tempted pounce and snatch the bird right out of the sky.

"So what kind of practicing do we need to do before this thistle gets here? Can I play drums? I know you just saw me play guitar perfectly and sing but drums are a little bit more my style." Lucas smiled and picked up the sticks again and began spinning them.

Gumi

Mary-Lunette was in the process of fixing her guitar's strings and thinking through Lucas's words. She'd come up with an answer but was suddenly drawn to the guitar and decided to answer it after she'd fixed the strings. However the guitar had another idea and one of the strings snapped and wiped at her hand. With a yelp she pulled her hand away and looked at the blood that began to bubble up out of a thin, luckily small, scratch. "Ouch..."

Gently she licked at the blood on her hand, not wanting any of her blood to be spilled, and answered Lucas. "It's up to James to tell you what he is..I can't answer anything for him." A small giggle escaped her and she shook her head. "Don't let Thistle hear that, she's a faerie, however if she found out she'd write it down, close her eyes, and hand it to one of her Mafia members so they can deal with me. No one but James, and now you, know that I'm human.."

Digging through her pockets she pulled out a band aid that was a light blue and began putting it over the cut. "James will get back before Thistle, until then we normally just play random songs, experiment with lyrics and stuff. Then when she gets here we go down to business..as best as we can. Normally we end up laughing our heads off because we have a hard time trying to be serious when it's needed." Gumi grinned at Lucas with a slight spark of humor in her eyes. "Of course you can play the drums! Anyone that can twirl drumsticks is a natural drummer!"

She watched in wonder as he started twirling them again. Unable to stop herself, she whispered softly "A wonderful natural...."

Myra stepped through the doors of the shop in silent awe. She had dreamt about wearing the earth walkers clothing ever since she had began to see more of the fashions. Lyn squealed to her in excitement also, which broadened Myra's smile. The shopping day was going to be the best she had ever endured, she would make sure of it. And being able to spend se time with other species! Myra had never through she would be offered such a great opportunity. As she scanned through the racks of clothing, her personality ran wild.

Scurrying over to a barely clothes mannequin, she found herself confused. Not only did the silhouette have barely anything on, it had strings all over the place. Peeking closer to the weirdly designed shirt, she grabbed James and pointed it out. "What are these for? It looks like a shirt, but there's so many loops in the back, is it some type of torture method to keep a woman laced inside?"

James

A grin spread across his face. Seeing both ladies a little excited to shop was having a bright effect on him, as long as they were happy he was too. He watched and then followed Myra when he noted she was confused but her words caught him off guard.

"What are these for? It looks like a shirt, but there's so many loops in the back, is it some type of torture method to keep a woman laced inside?"

It was obvious he wasn't the only one to hear Myra because a cackle went through the store. James scowled at Jasmine as the old elf practically fell of the stool behind the counter as she laughed. He gave his attention to Myra but made sure not to look at the garments. "Um..no there not..a torture method..." He began rubbing the back of his neck and registered Jasmine laugh harder because of his reaction. James felt his cheeks hit up and looked from Jasmine and Lyn for help, however it was obvious Jasmine was no help at all at the moment. "Those are...umm..."

Just as he was about to say what the garments were when I tall, stick like woman floated in. James thought the word float because the lady's legs faded and then were invisible. 'Ghost' Was the thought that registered in his head and he watched curiously as the ghost girl floated to Jasmine and picked up a necklace from the counter. Almost instantly the ghost girl became solid, only tell tales being that her feet and hands were almost transparent.

As the ghost turned to leave she must have noticed James's problem saying what the garments were. It shocked him as the girl walked toward Myra and whispered into her ear softly. James wasn't sure what was said but the ghost soon nodded to Myra and left, shooting a look of humor at James as she did and nodding to Lyn and Jasmin.

James looked curiously at Myra and wondered what the ghost had said to her...

John had walked he was tired and not doing so good ! appearing outside a shop ! his injuries were bleeding the darknesss was going wild around him leaning against the front window of the shop ! he was resting!











note sorry just wanted to get back in if Im tagging your post I can be at a different shop or place if you want me to !


Miathan is almost up just getting the last things taken care of ! by the way happy holidays!

Myra was confused at the surrounding responses to her question. She hadnt meant to make a joke or sound sarcastic. She was just asking a serious question! She felt her face her hot with embarrassment and annoyance. Myra was beginning to feel even more out of place than she already was. When she was about to run back into her familiar environment, the world silenced as a Figure approached them. With a weirdly calming voice, it explained Myra the purpose of her item. Why anyone would wear something no one would see was something she didn't understand. She was excited when she realized the answer, even humans could be seductive.

Before leaving the shop, transparent lips whispered next to Myra's ear. "The numbers will stay with him forever, until his past is realized and conquered. Take care, mermaid, for not all is well with James Russel." Before she was able to question the secret, the ghost exited the shop, leaving Myra to pick up the slack. She turned to James with sultry eyes. "Shall we see how it fits?"

john turning to the doors of the shop the darkness under control ! he still was bleeding but a calm had settled over him ! leaning there he was waiting the darkness has dropped him here because someone was nearby that could help !

James

James blushed so hard that he felt like he would have a blood nose soon, however he nodded slightly and quickly ran his hand over his nose, hoping it would come back clean; it did. Looking around and rubbing his neck, he thought to himself a minute. 'Well at least I don't have a blood nose, that's a high point.'

Slowly he felt the redness in his face faded away and he was able to find his voice. "Yeah...it could be...umm....interesting.." Trying not to sound bad or cruel he smiled at Myra. "I think they'd look good on you..."

Out of the corner of his eye he saw a familiar figure and his head snapped to the side to look out of the shop's window. There he saw the all to familiar John. Don't get him wrong, he was still weary of the supernaturals, and he trusted a few such as Myra and Lyn. However John was still in the weary category.

"You better bring him 'round the back, James. I'll know what to do with him there and while you move him I'll help the young lady get that one. Don't want you seeing to much flesh that isn't yours to see yet, no, no, no..."

James mentally rolled his eyes but couldn't help grinning at the old elf's non-stop, uncontrollable, chatter. Quickly he kissed Myra's cheek. "I'll be back in a minute, Jasmine will help you put the under garments on." He turned on his heels and headed for the door before remembering Lyn was there too. "Lyn if you need help you can ask Jasmine or if I'm back in time I can help."

Leaving the store he stopped in front of John and looked at him, his nose wrinkling slightly with the smell of darkness. It was strong enough that his human senses could pick it up. "Looks like I'm returning the favor and helping you..." Gently James wrapped and arm around John's waist and took most of the beings weight.

He helped John around back and kicked open the green rusted door. "Don't move. Jasmine was on of the best healer elves I know. She'll be here in a minute so try to relax and stay here."

He went back into the shop by a wooden door and watched as Jasmine got the garments of the mannequin for Myra and handed them to her. "Jasmine, he is around back. He smells funky too..." He grin again as the elf cackled and walked away to tend to John.

James didn't realize that he was probably going to have to help Myra get the top piece on. Normally this sort of stuff didn't bother him, he had to help some of the first teen females in the Underground City until they got the hang of it because they hadn't any older females and didn't feel secure asking the older males. To James, they were his sisters so after a bit of talking he had always done it up and basically told them how to sit it right. Not bad, for a guy that was still a virgin, only child, and had no mother, if he doesn't say so himself.

However for some reason, he felt different when it came to Myra...

(Merry belated Christmas ya'll!! And a Happy New Year!!)

Myra felt a sense of nervous excitement tense up the air. She turned to see a trail of blood leading to the back room and suddenly felt chills race through her body. Something had gone terribly wrong and though the kiss from James was nice, it didn't curb her curiosity for the adventure which was a room away from her. Bracing herself for the torn flesh, she followed James silently and gasped at the body she found. The blood had begun to trickle into the hem of her gown, but the moment was shadowing her disappointment toward the stain. Quickly peeking to the people around her, she prayed she could trust them with her secret.

With a wave of we hand, a stream of water floated through the air. Gently focusing on the water, she boiled it until it would help kill any bacteria in the man's wound. Dropping to her knees, she slowly dripped the water into the his wound, making it steam. She knew the pain would be sufficient, but she knew mermaids knew water healing better than any other species. Emitting a cease of pain into the man, she kept the flow of water going, praying his eyes wouldn't flutter close on her account.

feeling the power at work in him John spoke thankyou his voice was weak the amount of blood he lost was making it hard to talk while he would live the energy that had been drained would take time to restore with his right hand he had something he needed to give them it was a key speaking slowly so they would understand him take this and go to the address on it !

You will find there a fortune ! please take what you need !
