Boston, Hell

'Is that a ... glowing stone?' Yueshii thought as he finally caught a glimpse of what was in their hands, focusing as he ehard them speak up.

"That was alot easier then i thought it would be." One of them started, before stopping and letting the other continue her sentence. "and he even came to us . . . how lucky is that."

Of course, now that he looked closely, they were twins, just with different colouring.
"Who are you?" he asked again, but it seemed he hadn't needed to when one of them bowed. The one that had continued the sentence.

"My name is Sonima, and this is Sonime."

Idiots. He wasn't really asking for their names but it seemed they couldn't realise that. What were they doing in a cosplay in the middle of a children's park? Why was no one else looking at them? What were they?

"Yep this is him" the girl whose name he had already forgotten because it was of no consequence announced, looking excited. What?

The other looked at him "He really doesn't look like much to me I'm pretty sure I could take him down in a swipe of my hand." earning an angered "Don't be mean to him!" from the first girl before ...
... she randomly hugged him.
Now he was mad.
But before he could react, the second girl pulled her away from him (thank the heavens!) and he realised they had asked him a question.

"Do you want to be friends with us?"
It sounded like a dirty, sick trick someone would play on him.

"No. And I don't like people touching me!" he snapped at them, looking over their shoulders for his sister, who was still nowhere to be seen.

Lyela was beginning to get irritated, she had that tingling sense that someone was watching her. She didn't particularly care if she was being watched, but the sense of it could get distracting. They'd waited for the race to finish, which Lyela's bet had won, and were now simply discussing terms. This was the boring part, after this they chose the vehicle, tinkered with it so it suited their driving style, then they got to race. Turned out the guy who'd challenged her was called Andrew, also turned out he had no idea about how to organise one on ones.
"How about the winner gets everything the other has won this week," she finally suggested, getting very pissed off with his banter with his mates. He agreed, she grinned. If she lost this she still had enough cash to get her through, Martin would only have her winnings from this course, plus her bouncer job. Still, she had no doubt she could win, pushing passed the mechanic from her chosen car Lyela only made one adjustment. She removed the special safety Martin had on all his vehicles and proceeded to wave it in Andrew's face. Andrew glared at her and demanded to have his removed too, Lyela merely raised an eyebrow. These cars had been tampered with heaps, removing the safety made it more likely for the car to lose control. This guy was going to get himself killed. Oh, well. She ignored everyone else as she got to the start line. He'd chosen the most dangerous track, this was going to be so much fun. Neither of them were wearing helmets but Lyela chose to put on her seat belt, planning for a few dangerous manoeuvres. With that the race began.
She hit the gas but allowed Andrew to think he had the upper hand. On this course you could do pretty much anything you wanted, so long as you didn't leave the multiple tracks that could get you to the finish. Lyela turned sharply as they reached the first set of turns. She could no longer see Andrew, he went the other way, hers was a lot more hectic but it ended with a jump that would have her back on the same track. She was grinning madly as she sped up, at least one of the cars wasn't going to survive this and there was actually a possibility it would be hers. The jump was in sight now and she was going full speed, looking out the window she could see Andrews’s car below and just a little behind her. Looking forward she almost put on the breaks, almost. Something had happened to the ramp, it was incomplete. Lyela pressed even harder on the gas and felt the familiar sensation of her tyres leaving the ground.
She landed, hard, right in front of Andrew. At his speed he couldn't slow and he collided with the back of her car, causing both to temporarily spinout. Lyela cured loudly, she was facing the wrong direction. Switching to reverse she turned her head and began driving backwards towards the finish. Glancing through the windscreen she could see Andrew's shock look as he attempted to catch up to her. Can't have that, she thought. She was almost at the finish line, as fast as she could Lyela switched the car back to drive and spun it to face forward again. This had the desired effect, causing a cloud of dust and alloying her to cross the line without the other car in sight.
Lyela climbed from the car, which was smoking slightly and was going to need new tyres, in time to see Andrew through himself from his car just before it exploded and through shrapnel all over the track. She ducked behind her car to avoid all the flying mental then stood and grinned as she watched the terrified looking Andrew sitting, stunned and panting on the track, just a few metres from what was now scape metal.
"Pay up," she announced, grin never leaving her face. She had to laugh at the look Andrew gave her as he looked between her and what was left of his car.

Sonime and Sonima looked at each other and shrugged standing there looking at each other they began to talk. "he said no . . . does that mean he wasent the right one or does that mean we should follow him around." Sonima said confused thinking that the stone was wrong. "i say we follow him around he looked pissed so it would be fun just to annoy him a little more" the conversation going on under there breath to a point that only there wolf ears could hear it. after they were done the both turned to him and shrugged again both giveing a quick streach and brushing themselves off. They had both saw him start to look around past them they both started looking around to trying to find what he was looking at or for. after a few seconds of looking they both shrugged at each other once again beggining to follow the only one in the park who could see them. "so what's your name?" Sonima asked happily "we told you ours so its only polight to tell us yours back" she said in her seemingly always cocky tone.

As the twins walked out of sight Shadenz simply sat there in deep thought. "Lets see with the stone I gave them odds are that they will be fine in finding a human. The thing that has me wondering is how will they convince a human to partner with them. Riply always has that streak of increadably dumb luck in this sort of thing, plus she isn't to bad at making friends, even if it is a human. Sonime and Sonima have a harder time with that due to there compleatly contradictory personalitys...knowing them Sonima will immediatly hug him and be a sweet as possable while Sonime insults him and points out immediate flaws." The thought's went through his head in seconds and left him simply sitting there pondering about his aquaintences.
"Hph, they'll be fine," he finally whispers, "For now I worry for myself." he got on top of the large stone and cleared his mind. "Lucky that my race can sense specific souls. It may be for finding prey...but it will work just as well for this. He closed his eyes as he curled up and just lay there in a trance.

Yueshii didn't like the way they were talking, he had a sharp hearing so he could make out that they were saying something, but for the life of him he couldn't hear what. But what he did know was that he didn't trust them, and he wasn't going to get an answer from them, so he moved on.

Well, tried to.

"So what's your name? We told you ours so its only polite to tell us your's back" One of them piped up.
Yueshii considered replying, it really was polite, but that was before he realised they were still following him and spoke without turning around.

"Who put you up to this?"

Ripley

This was so much fun! Ripley was having a blast watching the race and she even stole some popcorn from a stand so that she could munch a little. Lyela had spunk and a lot of bravery, Ripley liked that. The speed, the technique, it was all so planned out so well preformed.
"This is going to be great!" Ripley finished eating the popcorn then blew up the paper in her hands.
Right when she blew up the paper, Andrew's car blew up and the chunks of metal were flying all over. Ripley grinned happily and in a very very psychopathic way. Explosions were just so irresistible for her, they made her head pump faster and her who body tremble for more. But Ripley calmed herself down.
"That, is an explosion," Ripley got down from the roof of the bleachers and decided that she would be waiting for Lyela at her motorcycle and let her see her then.

Simona Benette

Her visit was over with her mother, she was on her way home to where her aunt would definitely no longer be because she was never there. So Sim stopped at a convenience store first to get a lot of cookies and some 'ingredients' for her potions, like seaweed or frozen snails. people glanced over at her with disturbed eyes just like every time, but Sim just ignored them and continued her groceries.
"Tonight, I am going to try and make the butterfly potion and turn my homework into butterflies," Simona spoke to herself happily.

Lyela was standing in Martin's office, counting her money and getting yelled at. He did that whenever she went through a dangerous race. She made her excuses and let herself out, just as the sirens went off. Cursing loudly she looked around the race track.
"Bears," she yelled loudly, getting an immediate reaction from everyone in the area. She darted around Martin's building, and pulled back when she saw the cop cars. Martin was doing his job perfectly, throwing up a fuse to help them escape, and cover his own 'not exactly legal' behaviour. It was everyman for himself now, Martin wasn't going to help anyone once the cops were around. With all the cops moving away from their cars she managed to dart past them and was clear of the track in a few minutes. She slowed herself so as not to look suspicious. Her bike was right around this corner, then she was home free. Rounding the corner she was met by the site of a very strange looking person standing by her bike. Heaps of questions ran though her mind as her pace increased so she could reach her bike. Of course, none of those questions actually reached her mouth.
"Get the hell away from my bike," Lyela demanded of the person.

Over the thumping of the drums, Axel didn't hear her window being opened. She definitely didn't hear someone sneak in. She did, however, feel the arms wrap around her shoulders. This resulted in her standing up abruptly and judo-throwing the intruder straight over the drum kit and into her wall. On closer inspection, she noticed it was Rob. He had hit the wall face-first, and was now clutching his nose. "What the hell, Axel?" he glared at her. She shrugged, crossing the room to pull him up by his elbow.
"You deserved it. What have I told you about sneaking into my room?" He grinned, grabbing her hand.
"I wanted to see, you, babe. Don't tell me i don't have an effect on you, too?" She resisted the urge to growl at him. He was convinced there was something between them when there wasn't.
"The only effect you have on me is the effect you have on my gag reflex. Now get out." he frowned.
"Make me."
"Okay." she grabbed him by the ear, opened her bedroom door, and dragged him down the stairs, past her shocked adoptive parents, to the front door. She opened it, and threw him unceremoniously out onto the porch.
"Stay away from me, you creep." she snarled, before slamming the door. She walked back to her parents, who were looking at her with gaping mouths.
"Dad, I'm gonna put a lock on my window, 'Kay?" he nodded mutely, and she went back up to her room, shutting the door and sitting back down at her drum kit. She twirled the sticks in her fingers again, thinking.

Sonime and Sonima quickly looked at each other once more before looking back at the one who was supposibly connected to them though wavelength. they both shrugged and pointed to a young couple standing about 20 yards away from them. "why dont you go ask them who we are? they might know." both of them saying this at the same time still following him. "But before you do." Sonima started. "your going to get one weird reaction when you point us out." Sonime finished. Sonima started to giggle as they finished their sentence. Sonime looking at him and shrugging once more. both Sonime and Sonima started waveing their tails following closely behind him just to see the young couples reaction and his reaction once they figured out that noone but him could see them.

Ripley

She heard familiar sirens from things she remembered well when she spent more time in the human world, police cars. But she didn't really care about hem because they couldn't see her and she could just blow them up, just like that car before. . . no, calm down.
Ripley used to be street thug in the 80s when she disguised herself as a human when she had more free time and had nothing to do. But now all she wanted was go get to know that girl Lyela and train her to be the biggest explosion in the Hell Games.
"Get the hell away from my bike," Lyela demanded.
Ripley grinned and didn't move, "Make me," now she was just playing damn dirty, "I wonder how much you want to save your ass from those cops."

Lyela glared at the stranger. Her bike or the cops? She was used to dealing with the cops and she did have one or two people who would give her an alibi, but there was always something more to it when someone only suggested ratting you out.
"What do you want?" She demanded. She was standing a lot closer to the other girl, and her bike, but experience kept her just out of hitting distance. Or grabbing, stabbing, mugging, yeah basically any form of physical contact. This girl was creepy, especially when she grinned like that, but her bike was on the line. Lyela wasn't giving an inch but she made a mental note to kill whoever was behind it if this turned out to be some practical joke.

Yueshii sighed, a niggling suspicion beginning to form in his mind. But that was simply unbellievable.
However, everything seemed to point to that one conclusion.

He went ahead to the young couple.
"Excuse me, but have you seen two girls in wolf cosplays around here?" he asked causally, making sure to glance nonchalantly at where the two annoyances were, making the couple follow his seemingly random gaze.

"Nope." the girl said, seeming a little weirded out.
"Freak." the boy muttered under his breath.

"What was that?" Yueshii whipped out the tonfas he always kept handy.

"N-nothing." the boy squeaked, making Yueshii narrow his eyes.
"Remember that."

With that he walked back, his suspicion confirmed.

The way nobody looked at them even though they were wearing goddamn wolf ears and tails.
The way the boy had muttered he was mad and talking to 'air' before leaving when he had first approached Them.
The way They had seemed as if they had an inside joke when they referred him to the couple.
The way the couple couldn't see Them even after glancing very clearly in their direction.

"They can't see you. Which is just one more reason I don't want to associate with you." he stated, going right past them to his own apartment. Was he going crazy or what?

But They couldn't be part of his imagination. For one, his imagination wasn't fond of annoyances, and secondly, he was Yueshii Fong Ling and he didn't hallucinate.

Sonime and Sonima smiled at each other watching the reaction of the couple looking at him as if he were nuts. Sonime dident smile besides tword Sonima so if he would of saw it it would of been a rare accurence. As they both turned him down on seeing them Sonima smiled in amuzement Sonime seeming to be content with what had happened. As he started to think over everything had happened today that had to do with the twins they just watched seeing if he could figure it out. as he walked past them saying "They can't see you. Which is just one more reason I don't want to associate with you." They both sighed realizeing that he dident even take a guess on what they were. they both shrugged it off like they did with most things in the human world and Then both started to follow him again. Sonima followed him smileing and Sonime put her hands behind her head contenuing to follow. They stayed quiet for a while before realizeing that he still hadent ansered there question about what his name was. "So . . . you still havent told us your name." Sonima stated almost innocently. "and like i said before its only polight that you tell us your name for we have already told us yours" Sonime gave a death stair to the back of his head that could send shivers down Death himselves spine. Sonima just giggled as she did it.

Ripley

She stared down Lyela who seemed a little blocked and suspicious which was totally normal for the girl because a girl with wings and glowing red eyes standing next to your motorcycle is normal to make you get suspicious. Ripley loved the idea of making her uncomfortable she found it very entertaining. But she couldn't keep doing that she had to make Lyela trust her.
"My name is Ripley and I would like to be your friend," Ripley held her hand out like she had seen many humans do when they meet, "Do you want to be friends? I'll help you out if you do."

Creeper, Lyela thought immediately, No way.
"Why?" She asked instead, "I don't even know you and besides that you did just threaten to rat me out to the Bears so I'm basically running on the assumption that we're on opposite sides here. Besides that I don't need a friend, even if they were a normal one. Can I get to my bike now?" Admittedly that was pretty close to a no but it's not like she had a great amount of practice at not saying exactly what she thought. Unless it was an outright lie, which was a totally different matter.

"My name is none of your concern." Yueshii snapped in a low voice, making sure not to attract any attention, and not even turning towards the two ... Things trailing behind him. "I don't know what you are, but I know I didn't make you up, and that this isn't a dream. Moreover, I don't really care what you are, either. Just leave me alone. And I don't abide by that so-called politeness."

His [patience was running thin, and but for the fact that he had resolved not to fight without reason to his sister, they would possibly be dead by now. He bared his teeth, letting them catch a glimpse of his tonfas under his sleeve, unknowingly making several passers-by flinch away at his ferocious expression.

Ripley

She just couldn't get enough of this girl's attitude! It was great! Ripley hit the engine of the motorcycle with a small kick and it screamed with power as if some hard core energy was flowing into it. Ride it with a BOOM! That was what Ripley was all about.
"I understand your need for answers, but you're running out of time," the 'Bears', as Lyela called them, were getting closer, "I modified you bike to give you a boost when you ride it to get as far away as possible before the cops can even see you, bit I won't step aside, unless you want to become my friend. If not, then believe me this will not be your first problem."
Ripley wasn't really the type who would take no for an answer and she didn't really know how to ask nicely for a person to be friends with her. Even in Hell most demons avoided her and tried to see if there was a reason behind her wanting to become friends. I guess you could say that her violence came also from solitude.

Both Sonime and Sonima looked at each other. "he has some spunk, he even just ignored my death stair" Sonime looked to Sonima as she began talking "he's not the nice type eather so a hug dident get him he kinda jushed that one off too but" they looked at each other saying the same thing at the exact same time "its not like were just going to give up." they both looked at the surrounding area looking for anything that they could mess with. "he looks like the type to want power. the power to change things. make them go his way" Sonime started "or the kind who rejects everything not careing what happens as long as his goal is achieved" they boths smiled evily "lets show him our power then mabey he'll be able to guess what we are." they both said.Sonime's hands seemed to catch fire and Sonima's hand seemed to surround themselves in water they looked around "we cant make to much of an inturuption then people might attack him assumeing that he's causeing this." they both stoped letting him walk forword a bit they looked over at a passing car Sonime pointed her finger at it as the engin seemed to catch fire. the people in the car all jumped out in enough time for the car to explode. Sonima turned her head to a fire hydrent pointing to it as the whole thing busted of the ground shooting it into a nearby house they sat not exacly content with the small massicure of itums but it would be enough to show him what they could do, and he still dident want to following him around and doing jobs for him such as killing and stealing were always an option.

Lyela bristled slightly at the talk of adjusting her bike, whether it was good or not. She'd worked hard to get that bike, and made a few modifications to it. Still, she really wasn't in the mood to sleep in a cell tonight, she wanted to go home and have a shower, but she wasn't just about to become any person’s friend through black mail. Plan, she just had to think this through.
"Ok," she moved her hand to hold the bridge of her nose, frustrated, but thinking, "How about you let me go home and think about it? I can check out my bike and it'll put me in a far better mood than if I'm sleep in a cell, their beds suck." Might not be the best compromise ever but it was still a compromise. Plus if worse came to worse she could probably walk home, or back to the club. The only drawback, she had to leave her bike and this chick didn't look like the type who'd just let it sit here peacefully until Lyela got back. In a normal situation, she probably would of started a fight a while back but by now she was thoroughly convinced that this chick wasn't normal. God knows what she would, or could do if it came to a fight.

Yueshii had, in fact, felt the glare burning into his head, but he had ignored it in favour of putting as much distance between the Things and himself as possible.

Suddenly there was an exploding noise as the engine of a nearby car exploded, making it catch fire. The people all quickly jumped out, but Yueshii wasn't paying them any attention.

The two Things ... one of them had fire covering her hand, and the other had water.

Just as he was trying to make sense of this, a nearby hydrant went shooting towards a house.

How interesting ...


And then suddenly a little voice piped up from the other side of the street, and Yueshii saw his sister look at him with wide, frightened eyes.

"Damn." he hissed, quickly trying to cross the street, but just as he was about to catch up, she screamed, "Monster!" and ran away as fast as her little legs could carry her.

"Now you have done it!" he snapped, whirling back and going towards the Things, glaring at the people who gave him weird glances, whipping out his tonfas and pointing to the surrounding crowd. "Got a problem?"

As the crowd quickly dispersed, he turned to the Things again. "Go and explain to her! NOW!"

OOC: There you go, blackmail material xD /tonfa'd/

Ripley

Okay, she was using the hard way and this girl was being pushed against a wall and those kinds of situations weren't easy for anyone. Ripley knew that she couldn't get a clear response out of the girl if she did this so Ripley stepped aside from the bike and spread her wings.
"Alright, go home and think about it," Ripley flew up into the dark sky where Lyela wouldn't be able to see her as Ripley would follow her.
The cops were on there way but Ripley hadn't changed the boosting system and was eager to see what an explosion Lyela's take off would be!

Simona Benette

Simona finished her groceries and was on her way home. She skipped and hummed down the streets with her filled grocery bag that she held with one hand that was spinning around. She nearly knocked out some people because she wasn't being careful, but she just ignored their complaints and kept going.
She finally reached her aunts small home and unlocked the door to go in. It was quiet and empty, as usual, so Sim just went to the kitchen and started up on her butterfly potion.

She can fly, Lyela thought, She can fly? That's it, I'm losing it, I wonder if insane-asylums have better food than jail?
The sound of cars had her immediately getting on her bike, despite her thoughts. She pulled on her helmet to cover her face and flipped the licence plate so it was blank. Easiest way out is to head back in. Revving the engine Lyela took off in the direction the cops were coming from. When they saw her coming, they turned their sirens on, but when she didn't slow down they began breaking. Tires screeched as the cars went all over the road, moving between them at an incredibly unsafe pace Lyela temporarily forgot about Ripley. She sped forward without thinking, listening as the cops crashed into each other, they really needed cops who could drive better.
She got home at record speed, shutting of her bike and heading up to her room. It wasn't a huge apartment but to be fair she didn't have lots of stuff. She dumped the stuff she did have inside the door, shutting it with her foot. With that she flopped onto her bed, finally letting the day’s activities get the better of her. She was going to have heaps to deal with tomorrow but she was already half asleep, all her adrenaline wearing off. Tomorrow seemed like a good time to think everything through.

Sonime and Sonima looked at each other both shrugging twords him. "im not even sure she can see us." Sonima started. "She can see the flames around my hands and the water around hers but not completely sure she can see us and ontop of that not sure if she can hear us." Sonime finished. they both smiled beginning to talk "but we can try." Sonime lifted her hand as the fire went down. Sonima lifted up her hands also doing the same thing. "but, how do want us to stop her from running to give us enough time to explain ourselves." Sonime started. "and are you even sure that you want us to tell her were demons." Sonima paused looking down as if she was defeted "damn it" Sonime looked at Sonima "he was supposed to guess what we were." Sonime said while shakeing her head "i know" Sonima said "but it slipped my mind because of the situation." Sonime just shook her head giveing one of her half smiles. they both looked back up seeing that the girl was getting really far away. they both took off after her Sonime grabbing Yueshii and starting to run with him in her hands after his little sister. Sonima, who had started running at the same time, caught up with his sister very quickly grabbing her and holding her in her hands. both Sonime and Sonima gave one look at each other then to a tall building both takeing off twords it running up the walls to the top of it. when nearing the top they both jumped fliping forword about 10 feet above the top of the building landing beside each other and setting both Yueshii and his little sister down beside each other. Sonime and Sonima looked at each other then back to the two humans who they had snatched.

After several hours of meditating, feeling out the souls of the human world suddenly Shadenz opened his eyes suddenly and grinned.
"I found you," he said to himself as he stood up to his full height and stretched. "Hehehe, let's see now." He get's on all fours and runs through the gates to earth. He lands on a side road and sniffs the air. "Hmm, let's see..." After a while he comes across asylum, "My match is a mental case...no, they just spent alot of time here...intreging." He chuckled as he kept following the sent, finally stoping out side a small house.
Slowly shifting his tail side to side me smiles again, "Here you are "Partner" hehehehehe." He slinks over to the door and dissolves into the shadows easily sliping under.
"Where are you my young freind?" He says to himself his whispering voice as he slowly glides through the shadows.

"She can see the flames around my hands and the water around hers but not completely sure she can see us and ontop of that not sure if she can hear us." Sonime finished. they both smiled beginning to talk "but we can try." Sonime lifted her hand as the fire went down. Sonima lifted up her hands also doing the same thing. "but, how do want us to stop her from running to give us enough time to explain ourselves."

"I don't care!" Yueshii snarled, and it was true. He didn't care how they managed to do it or what they said.
"This is your fault so take responsibility!"

"and are you even sure that you want us to tell her were demons." Sonima paused looking down as if she was defeted "damn it" Sonime looked at Sonima "he was supposed to guess what we were." Sonime said while shakeing her head "i know" Sonima said "but it slipped my mind because of the situation."

" I already said this : I don't care what you tell her, just tell her its not my fault! Don't make me repeat myself."
Then what they said clicked. "Demons? Don't mess with me! They do't exis- "

His words were swallowed as one of them caught him in her hands, carrying him to a building. When they landed on top of it, Yueshii noticed they had his sister as well.

Carried ...

"There's an explanation for all these, and you are going to give it to me. No crap about being demons, either." he stated, with the calm before a storm, before pointing to Lan. "And you are going to make her understand it wasn't my fault!"

"W-why are you talking to the air?" Lan whispered, " F-father was right when he said you are dangerous. Are you mad?"
She was scared and wanted to run away again, she didn't know what happened but ... "How am I here? Why am I herE? WHho are you? You can't be my brother! What did you do to my brother?"
