Jeremy Dillard sits crosslegged, his tail loosely draped over his shoulder, and yawns
Orik suddenly stands, walks over to val and seems to look her over before extending a hand to her.

Val from x.x.x.221 joined the chat 25 hours ago
Shuanna: hullo! ..
Shuanna she'd run over to Val, away from Ben
Val: Um, hi? -suspicious look-

Ben: oh..
Ben *he'd look at the two from beyond a bar counter, helping himself to the liqour*
Val is hanging out in the corner
Ben: I didn't know you were here before me..
Shuanna: eerrm.. I was.. away in the bathroom! ..

Shuanna fidgets
Ben: Right..
Ben *he'd pour a shot of tequila*
Ben drinks his shot before looking to Valeria
Brock from x.x.x.250 joined the chat 25 hours ago

Val: Could you pass me some of that?
Ben he smiled
Ben: you mean you want the bottle.
Shuanna: ... I didn't know you drank, Valeria..
Val glares at Brock

Val: yeah, the bottle
Val: i do when there's reason to
Ben: Catch.
Ben he tossed the bottle at Val
Val catches and takes a swig

Val: much better
Brock takes it and downs the rest
Shuanna: ...
Val: Hey! -glare-
Shuanna shifts uncomfortably

Ben coughs casually
Brock burps
Brock: well I feel better. hello Shuanna. ::smiles::
Val: yeah, well i still feel miserable. -heads over to the bar for more alcohol-
Shuanna: ..ehm..! hullo!

Shuanna tries to keep calm
Ben: Hey pumpkin..
Brock: don't be nervous, i'm a nice guy really...val is just a bitch
Brock smiles
Ben looked over Val, at shuanna

Shuanna: ...
Shuanna has no clue Ben is talking about her
Ben: Mrs. Lite brite!
Shuanna: ...?
Val: I may be a bitch, but i have reason for it. -gets behind the bar to find somethin good-
Shuanna looks over at Ben like a crack addict looking at a cop

Ben: wooah woah, don't take all the good stuff..
Ben: Listen Lite brite.. c'mere
Shuanna shakes her head
Val: i will take whatever i need -pulls out a bottle of scotch-
Brock: your reason is because you are mentally insane, and thats hardly a good reason
Ben: Im not gunna hurt you! c'mere!

Ben looks at brock
Ben: who are you talking to?
Ben he'd smile, pointing between him and Val
Brock: ...val...crazy
Ben: riight.. She's a woman, she is more prone to it.
Ben he jumped over the counter, walking to Shuanna
Val: i can shoot you both. -drinking from bottle-
Ben: Aaww come on.. It's just Shuanna, she hasn't done anything..
Shuanna: ... I.. don't want to get shot..
Val: not you. the two morons -points at Ben and Brock-
Ben: are we getting femenist here?

Ben: I may have a particular bone for women..but it's crap like that, that really raises my killing rate..
Shuanna gulps
Val: no, just calling me crazy is not a way to get on my good side -takes another swig-
Brock: ...bullets don't really do much to me. ::the metallic coating flashed over him, then disappeared again, followed by a smile::
Ben: Yeah and calling a serial killer and mass murderer a moron isn't exactly the smartest thing..
Ben: I donno if I were a woman against a man.. I wouldn't push it..

Shuanna: ...but..
Ben: Lite brite, we're talking.
Ben: Here.. Drink it.
Ben he had gone back behind the counter and tossed shuanna a bottle of tequila
Shuanna: ... !!! wait-!
Shuanna she had her arms waving around like a 1 year old trying to walk

Val: fine, then i just mean him -points at Brock-
Ben: Good call.
Val: and i will find a bullet that'll work, just try me
Shuanna luckly the bottle landed on the couch she was sitting on
Ben: Oh, brock can be hurt.
Ben: Just not in the conventional way.

Ben: But I guess it's safe to say he's already taken some pretty big blows..
Val sits on the bar so she has easy reach to more alcohol if needed
Val: you don't mean emotional i hope
Val: because he obviously doesnt have a heart
Ben smiles sinisterly

Ben: I'll prove it.. just you watch.
Ben: Although for that to happen, you'll probably fall as well.. sorry..
Ben: You gotta crack a few eggs to make an' omlete.
Shuanna strains to open the tequila bottle
Val snorts

Val: just try, psycho boy
Ben he couldn't help but grin widely
Ben: Oh I can make it so I don't even have to touch you.
Ben: Just the fact that Broccoli is over there, I can always find a way in.
Val chuckles at the nickname

Val: good one that
Ben: heh heh. like that?
Shuanna: ... I can't get it open..
Ben: Shuanna you set women's rights back 400 years, you do realize that right?
Ben he took a bottle opener and walked over to shuanna, taking the bottle and opening it himself
Shuanna: I don't know if rights count for mystlings ..so..

Ben: Oh, so she's more intelligent then she lets on?
Ben: well that's nice to know..
Shuanna: ...
Val has half-finished the bottle of scotch by now
Ben: You know, I would kill for you to be in a porno..
Shuanna: ... your kidding..

Ben: The funny part is, is that I could actually do that..
Shuanna she sighed
Shuanna: I guess you would be into that sort of thing..
Ben: not too often..
Ben: there's a reason why I kill over 'the sins of the flesh'
Val: what kind of porno? -is sort of drunk by now-
Ben: bondage.
Shuanna: Valeria?!
Val: ah. -nods- not really into that myself. -shrugs, another swig- but whatever gets ya goin i guess
Ben: Not most people want to admit it.
Ben: It's not like I get a jolly off of killing someone..
Ben: It's a different kind of buzz..
Ben: Although if I were to kill shuanna, it'd probably be what it sounds like..
Shuanna: ...gee .. thanks..
Ben: welcome, lite brite
Val chuckles
Val is considerably happier now that Brock has left
Ben: What can I say? shuanna you scream jail bait.
Shuanna: im not jail bait.. I haven't even dreamed of going to jail!
Ben: That's because you are as pure and naieve as they come.
Ben: You want ot believe that everyone you meet is nice and happy-go lucky but they arn't.. and you know it.
Val: ain't that the truth -raises bottle in salute-
Ben: So that's why you gotta tie your ovaries up and be more assertive, else chances are you'll get taken advantage of.
Shuanna: that is.... assuming YOU don't before anyone else..
Ben: ...heeh heheh heh..
Alex from x.x.x.221 joined the chat 24 hours ago
Shuanna: ..! hullo!
Alex: Hi! -waves-
Shuanna she smiled warmly, taking her first sip of the tequlia and coughs miserably

Ben: Wow.. I am lucky tonight.
Alex: -tilts head- you alright?
Ben: I was afraid I would be forced to eat sausages here but I was wrong!
Shuanna: yeh! .. it! ... it's just.. strong..
Alex: maybe you should try something less strong then?
Shuanna: .. I dunno what to try..

Val: If the alcohol's weak, why bother drinkin it?
Ben: exactly
Ben: Pumpkin, take another sip, it'll all become clear soon.
Shuanna: ...I donno..
Ben: come on.. Broccoli isn't here, he ain't gonna judge you.
Shuanna: ...i've.. never been drunk before..

Ben: good time to start..!
Val: its better'n being sober
Shuanna: But..Im a minor..
Ben: You can't be any younger then 19 for chris sake..
Alex has taken some of the alcohol and set up a makeshift chemistry set and starts playing with it
Shuanna: ...

Shuanna: I don't trust you..
Ben: Your right, you shouldn't. Now drink it.
Shuanna: ...
Val: come on, try it. we dont care how old you are here
Ben: She's 20..
Shuanna: ...!

Ben: Oh yeh I did some research on you by the way..
Shuanna: ...
Val: close enough to the legal age!
Shuanna takes another drink of the tequila, cringing
Ben: yeeey!
Shuanna: ..it reminds me of nail polish..

Ben: that's because there is alcohol in nail polish..
Alex: -a small explosion is heard from where Alex is playing- ...Oops
Shuanna: ...!!
Shuanna she jumped
Val has fallen asleep behind the bar

Ben: what the shit..? /me he looked over at alex
Ben he looked over at where Alex was
Alex: ...um, forgot that that could happen when mixing those two ingredients... -has sightly singed hair-
Ben: ...yyyeh.. what ARE you doing?
Alex: -innocent look- playing
Ben: ..hmm.

Alex: ...trying to make something to remove bloodstains easier?
Ben: finding time to remove bloodstains would take too much time. You'll be caught before you know it
Alex: aww....
Ben: Just find your own way of making sure there are no prints of yours in the crime scene and dont kill in your own house
Ben: Money helps in a lot of situations too..
Alex takes notes

Ben: Before killing you
find out as much information as possible about these people, you don't
just rush in and whack them with out any previous knowledge. For all
you know, you could be killing the cheif of police.
Ben: study them, find out their habits and schedual, that way the people who are close to them won't find too many irregularities..
Alex nods, continuing to take notes
Ben: Why are you taking notes anyway..?
Shuanna takes a few more sips of tequila, finding it getting more and more tastier

Alex: Cause you're so smart, and awesome, and really cool
Alex:
Ben: ...
Ben: eh.. thank you..?
Shuanna: ...Ben... your just.. taken a back.. 'cause she likes you..
Alex beams

Ben: Shut up
Ben: Your drunk already after a few swabs!?
Shuanna: ...im not too heavy..
Alex yawns, then pulls a large overstuffed chair near Ben and curls up to sleep in it
Ben: ...yeh.. I guess
Ben scoots away a bit
Shuanna: Ben..
Ben: what..?
Shuanna: Your slipp'un into darkness..
Shuanna she laid on the couch, slowly going to sleep
Ben he smiled
Ben: ...
Alex from x.x.x.221 left the chat 13 hours ago
Val from x.x.x.221 left the chat 13 hours ago
Val from x.x.x.221 joined the chat 2 hours ago
Val chills out at the bar
Orik from x.x.x.38 joined the chat 86 minutes ago
Orik walks up to the bar and takes a seat next to val.
Orik: hey...
Val gives Orik a look, but decides to refrain from commenting
Val grabs the same bottle of scotch she was working on the night before and takes a swig
Jeremy Dillard from x.x.x.161 joined the chat 78 minutes ago
Jeremy Dillard sits cross legged, his tail flicking slightly
Orik orders a water and chuckles lightly, speaking to Val without looking at her.
Orik: not much of a talker eh?
Val: Not to you people at least
Orik raises an eyebrow.
Orik: people are people... just cuz i look like a wolf, and you a human, doesnt mean we dont have other things in common
Val: i dont have the possibility of accidentally killing someone
Jeremy Dillard: Neither do I.
Jeremy Dillard flicks his ear in annoyance at the blatant misrepresentation of facts
Orik: ... true... but...
while i do... i dont think i could ever forgive myself if i did so to
an innocent person.... a killer though...
Orik trails off and clenches his fist, staring at it in silence.
Val: -snorts- No one's innocent these days.
Orik: ... you're
right... but... not everyone does what they do because they want to...
there are humans several times more sadistic than mystlings... humans
just fear us because we have abilities and appearances difficult for
them to understand
Orik turns to jeremy.
Orik: am i right?
Val: Most of them have a right to be afraid. A lot of you can't control yourselves. People end up getting hurt
Jeremy Dillard nods slowly, somewhat depressed by the whole topic
Jeremy Dillard: A lot? Hardly.
Orik sighs and turns back to val.
Jeremy Dillard: Most of
those who can't control the Myst properly aren't strong enough to do
any lasting harm. You only hear about the exceptions to that rule.
Val: Yeah, and the exception fucking terrify normal people
Orik: look... i'm just
trying to be nice... i havent used a single one of my abilities to or
even around you... even though i could... and for the most part it's
difficult for me to talk cuz of them, but i can control them... there
are just as many evil humans as there are mystlings... even a blind man
could see that
Jeremy Dillard:
Precicely. As a general rule, they concern us even more. We aren't all
that much more durable than you are, but even if none of us die from
those incident, many of us still die from those incidents.
Orik: uh... jeremy... you might want to rephrase that last bit
Orik chuckles lightly.
Jeremy Dillard: Pardon?
Orik: how can none of us die from incidents if "many of us still die from those incidents?"
Jeremy Dillard: I said
exactly what I meant. Even if the incident does not directly affect any
Mystlings at all, the response from the general population still
results in death.
Orik: .... ah... i see now... yeah...
Jeremy Dillard: Thus, we
may not die in the incident, but the incident kills us none the less,
and usually far more than the number in the incident itself.
Orik turns back to val.
Orik: whats your take on that?
Val takes a long drink from the bottle
Val: guess we'll just have to disagree on this one
Orik laughs and pats val on the back.
Orik: i guess we will.
Orik looks like he's having fun.
Jeremy Dillard looks dead tired and morbidly depressed by the heavy conversation
Val looks uncoferatble with the physical contact, but refrains from saying anything, merely scowling
Orik looks depressed at their body language.
Orik: come on guys... lighten up... this is a bar isnt it?... we should be having fun

Orik stands up and extends a hand to val.
Jeremy Dillard scratches his ear with his hand, and his foot twitches lightly
Orik: come on... lets dance... you know you want to
Val: -scowls more- I'm good right here, Dogface
Jeremy Dillard pours a cup of sake and passes the carafe back to the bartender

Orik droops his ears.
Jeremy Dillard sips at the rice wine
Jeremy Dillard: Don't worry Orik. She'll cheer up after she gets laid.
Orik: aww.... come on.... you never know if you're gonna have fun until you do something... but you have to keep an open mind too
Orik smiles brightly

Orik: if you dont like
it... i'll let you smack me across the face as hard as you can... how
'bout that?... only condition is you have to at least try and enjoy it
Jeremy Dillard becomes very blunt when he drinks, and does not drink very much around others
Val: -snorts again- Me getting laid? Not likely to happen anytime soon
Val is rather blunt sober
Orik: .... getting laid?... nah... i just wanna dance!

Val: I don't dance. At least not until I'm significantly drunker
Orik grins, then turns to the bar, slamming his hand down to alert the bartender.
Jeremy Dillard finishes his small cup of sake and places it back on the counter, then stands and stretches
Orik: alright then... MORE SHOTS!
Val has alread drunk a pretty good amount of the scotch

Jeremy Dillard: Val, try wine. Mixing the two should take care of it.
Orik grabs two of the shots, setting one down in front of Val and taking one for himself.
Orik: bottoms up?
Jeremy Dillard flicks his tail in a lazy circle and sits back down
Val quickly drinks the shot

Val: Not bad. What was it?
Orik drinks his with her and grabs two more.
Orik: ... uh... ask the bartender?... *shrugs*... ready?
Jeremy Dillard: I think that one is tequila
Jeremy Dillard: The first were vodka
Orik: meh... does it matter?

Val: Sure -again drinks too quickly to register what kind of alcohol it is-
Orik drinks with her again.
Orik: AHH!!.... ready to dance yet?
Val: Not yet. I can still see straight
Orik grabs two more.

Orik: then we'll keep going!
Orik is beaming.
Jeremy Dillard: I told you, wine Orik.
Val drinks
Jeremy Dillard: You mix wine with hard liquer, does it every time.

Orik: yeah, yeah
Orik drinks.
Orik: we'll get to it
Orik smiles
Orik: BARTENDER!!!.... get me what he's talking about!

Orik points at jeremy.
Alex from x.x.x.221 joined the chat 50 minutes ago
Alex: Is Ben here? -looks around-
Orik waves at alex, partially drunk.
Orik: HEY ALEX!

Jeremy Dillard flicks his tail at Alex, but is too lazy to say anything
Alex: -looks over- Hmmm... You're not Ben. -pouts-
Orik: ... uh... not since i been here...
Orik laughs.
Val ignores Alex, focusing on her scotch again

Orik grabs the new drink as the bartender sets it down.
Orik: here... try this... jeremy says its good
Orik smilexs
Orik smiles*
Val examines it, shrugs, and downs it quickly

Orik: .... so?
Val: Not bad -slightly loopy-
Orik: wanna dance?
Val thinks about it then shrugs
Val: if you've got music, then sure
Orik: come on then...

Orik extends his hand.
Val takes it
Jeremy Dillard: I'm going to head back to the Alpha Site for the night. You three have fun.
Jeremy Dillard stands slowly and heads for the nearest door
Orik takes Val out onto the dance floor and begins to freestyle. He is not the greatest at dancing, but he's not bad either.

Jeremy Dillard from x.x.x.161 left the chat 43 minutes ago
Val chuckles, following Orik's lead and actually enjoying herself somewhat
Orik: see!... i told you it would be fu- whoa!
Alex sits in the big comfy chair and waits to see if Ben will show up
Orik forgets how drunk he is and falls flat on his rump.

Orik laughs.
Val laughs loudly, rather drunk herself
Orik: Gets back up as a much slower song comes on. Looking at Val, he raises an eyebrow and extends his hand once more.
Val smiles and takes the hand
Orik puts his other hand on her waist and begins to slow dance with her.

Orik: see... now this is fun.
Orik is smiling brightly.
Val: Suppose so -giggles slightly-
Orik wiggles his waiste lightly, not realizing he's also wagging his tail.
Val gets the giggles so bad she has to stop moving to try to stop

Orik is still wagging his tail.
Orik: what?
Val: -between giggles- nothing. just, your tail...
Orik: what? *looks back* huh?
Orik begins turning around trying to see it and after a few turn arounds grabs his tail.

Orik chuckles awkwardly.
Val is lauging even harder now
Orik: ... it uh.... kinda does that sometimes...
Orik is trying to hold his tail still.
Val: You look just like a puppy -laughing hard enough she has to sit down at the bar again-

Orik finally gets his tail to stop moving, then follows her to the bar, nuzzling her in the shoulder.
Orik: i get that a lot...
Val: I imagine so
Orik: ... well... i do have distinctly canine features
Orik chuckles lightly, sitting next to her, not realizing he's reaching for her hand once again.

Val: It's not just that... -tilts her head to the side trying to put her finger on it-
Orik blinks and cocks his head to the side, looking extremely curious. He subconsiously takes her hand in his.
Val doesnt seem to either notice or care about the hand holding
Orik looks remarkably dog/wolf -like in his expression of confusion
Orik: what is it then?

Val: Hmm... I don't know. -shrugs, grabs her bottle and takes a quick sip-
Orik shrugs and nuzzles her shoulder once again, this time staying close to her afterwards.
Val yawns, getting kind of sleepy
Orik: .... we... should probably go home... huh?
Val shrugs

Val: Probably. -makes no motion to get up-
Orik nuzzles into her shoulder, keeping his head resting on her after he finishes.
Val leans into him a bit, closing her eyes
Orik closes his eyes as well, his body fur acting like a blanket and keeping them both warm.
Val starts to dooze off

Orik begins to nod off as well,
but attempts to move forward into a cuddling position and falls off his
stool and lands on the floor with a thump and a yelp.
Val wakes with a start and looks down at Orik on the floor and laughs slightly
Val: Guess thats a signal to go home
Orik whines slightly, rubbing his rump as he stands.
Orik: .... yeah... i guess i'll see you around?

Val: -nods- most likely. -gets up, slightly unsteady, and heads home-
Orik heads home as well.
Orik from x.x.x.38 left the chat 15 minutes ago
Val from x.x.x.221 left the chat 14 minutes ago
Ben from x.x.x.80 joined the chat 4 hours ago
Ben he came in silently, having
a note and placing it on the bar counter. It read: " I assume my
absence must have been noticed my some of you, if not all. I have a few
errands to run today. Whether i'll be able to come back later to night
is uncertain. - P.S= im taking shuanna with me."
Ben from x.x.x.80 left the chat 4 hours ago

Val from x.x.x.221 joined the chat
Val chills out at the bar, ignoring the note on the counter
Ben from x.x.x.80 joined the chat 2 seconds ago
Ben: well if it isn't the famous Valeria.
Val: Ben. -nods an acknowladegment-

Ben: Why is it that when
im not around, this place is bustling but when I find a spare newyork
minute to pop in, this place is more depressing, dead and meaninglessly
hollow like stephine meyer or whatever the hell her name is..
Val: -shrugs- maybe it's because no one likes you
Ben: Yeh? what if I told you I killed them all?
Val: Why would I care?
Ben: because your lonely.
Val snorts

Val: Sure, whatever
Ben: uh huh.. well.
Ben it was noticed that he had brought in a bag, setting it on the gorund he took out a notebook and pen
Ben: have you heard anything from broc? he's been awful ghostly lately..
Ben: even during the short period where he was here, he wasn't too interactive.
Val: Why would I want to hear anything from him? -scowls-

Ben: Because your lonely?
Val suspicious glance at the bag
Ben smiles at Val
Ben: whut?
Ben: the bag?

Val: No matter how lonely I was, I'd prefer talking to a rock then him
Ben: was?
Ben: what about now?
Val: Yeah, I'll bite. What's up with the bag?
Ben: arn't you lonely now?
Val ignores the questions about her supposed lonelyness

Ben he side glanced the bag
Ben: It's just papers..
Val: Papers for what?
Ben: for only my eyes to see
Val: Hm. -tries to hide curiosity-
Ben: they're lawsuits..

Ben smiled, sticking his tongue out for a bit
Val: Lawsuits? Huh.
Ben: yeh, i've had a view lives before this one.
Ben: I was a medical doctor, you know.
Ben: but because of my complusion to kill, secretly if i wanted to, i'd kill patients and they wouldn't have a clue.
Ben: which probably started my whole thing

Val listens curiously
Ben: these people here suspect me. probably due to gut feeling.
Ben: but they have no evidence at all to put me down.
Ben: plus I have enough money to either buy them off somehow or get a decent lawyer, if I don't feel like representing myself..
Ben: So I eventually quit being medical doctor, since the lawsuits were getting tiresome.
Val: -grabs a drink and sips it while listening-

Ben: so of course I
needed a job, so I ended up at a company who invented a new type of
coffee filter. As you brew your coffee, the filter flavors it.
Ben: so, I signed on, starting working my way up the latter.
Ben: ladder*
Ben: The CEO passed his company to me, buh-zing.
Ben: Although by this time I haven't killed in over 10 years..I've tried to keep it down
Ben: but eventually i couldn't keep it caged.

Ben: so I got into a relationship with one of my secretarys.
Ben: I thought that maybe If i had settled down that it would go away.
Ben: got married, had twin girls, set up a good home.
Ben: It was nice an' all. But it didn't exactly scratch that itch..
Ben: I couldn't understand where it had came from.
Ben: So one day, I woke up.

Ben: Kids were gone.
Ben: Wife was hysterical.
Ben: She found out about those lawsuits when I was a doctor.
Ben: She suspected me of the disappearance of my own girls.
Ben: 'course I denied it. Because it really was the truth.
Val is listening intently

Ben: She didn't believe it, and she started getting physical.
Ben: She hit me, and she hit me, she pushed me, then she tried to scratch my face.
Ben: This was when I reached for a glass, took a hold of her head and held it away, I warned her but she kept coming.
Ben: So i hit her over the head with the glass and it shattered.
Ben: Of course I've scares on my hand from that. But to my surprise, I killed her.
Ben: My hand had probably jamed the shards of glass that were long enough into her brain.
Ben: because of this I had to learn how to write with my right hand.. I was a left hand.
Ben: I can't bend my left hand's fingers for too long.. they begin to hurt after a while..
Ben: anyway, as it turns out, my twin girls were already dead before I woke up.
Ben: After I barrie my
wife, I read in the paper that my Father was admitted to the hospital
because his stomach had ruptured. They found human remains inside his
stomach
Ben: Right away I knew it was my own children, and yes, unlike my wife I did grieve for them.
Ben: unlike for my wife that is
Val looks a little green, but takes a long drink
Ben: But it was my daughters funeral that I realized what was happening to me
Ben: I was becomeing my father.
Ben: From my older
brothers point of view, my father was very much sane, and a good man.
But it was around the time that my mother was pregnant with me, that my
father had started to change.
Ben: My father had become paranoid, and he would always mumble to himself, and look over his shoulder.
Ben: I don't remember him smiling..

Ben: He called me, my
older brother and eldest sister devils. Im not sure why, but I believe
he was referring to our child behavoir as being possed by the devil.
Ben: My older Brothers
sight was becoming worse. He's blind now, but he did see my father
finally snapping and turning all his anger on my mother
Ben: My mother was brutally murdered, and my Father had started his cannibalizing frenzy.
Ben: My older brother instantly ran to my eldest sister, telling her what was happening, and the three of us escaped the house.
Ben: I was only 6 months old, so my older brother says.
Ben: My eldest sister and older Brother had to grow up early, because they had me to drag around.

Ben: Although I do remember being a lone a lot.
Val continues to look a tad ill
Ben: Eventually my Sister
found us a foster home to stay in and I remember growing up, the fear
of my father finding us, since he wasn't caught untill he cannibalized
my daughters.
Ben: Which is amazing to me.
Ben: because I bet that bastard is so delusional, his brain looks and probably has the consistancy of swiss cheese.
Ben: Schizophrenia eats up your brain. creates holes in it too.

Ben: He's dead now, obviously.
Ben: He was old, and I don't know too many seniors who can survive a ruptured stomach.
Val: That'sgood to hear.
Ben: My brother still had a connection to him.
Ben: He believed in the father he grew up with. not the one that killed my mother.
Ben: Personally I never really knew either of them.

Ben: But anyway.
Ben: now that i've told you my lifes story..
Ben: I haven't cannibalized before.
Ben: perhaps my illness won't develop into that untill later.
Ben yawns
Ben: SO what about you?

Val: Not much to tell.
Ben: there is always a lot to tell
Ben: you can't say that you've gone through your life with out any hardships.
Val: Academy student, joined the police, was pretty happy with that until recently...
Ben: yeh?
Ben: what? old friend get shot and died?

Val: Pretty much got fired for some unauthorized recon.
Ben: Ah.
Val: Should of talked to my higher-ups, but of course I thought they'd prefer some initiative.
Ben: Well I got fired for being a mystling.
Ben: oh i see
Val: It wouldn't of been so bad if it weren't for Brock. -scowls at mentioning the name-

Ben: what do you have against Brock?
Ben looks at his notebook, beginning to write, but really was curious as to what Valeria had to add
Val: The bastard lied to me for seven fucking years
Ben: Did he now?
Ben his brows raised, chewing on the end of his pen

Val: Passed himself off as a human.
Ben: well perhaps he did want the fact of being a mystling to get in the way.
Ben: excuse me, he didn't want the fact.
Ben: however
Ben: Having children with a mystling could prove burden some
Ben: If the children where to inherit the trait, they would have miserable lives.

Val: Yeah, well once his secret came out, he just took off.
Val: Never even gave me a chance to process it before he was gon
Ben: hmm..
Ben: that says something about his character.
Ben: perhaps he isn't Alpha teams white knight after all.
Ben: how old were you two when this occured?

Val: 17.
Ben: hm..
Ben smiled
Ben: so you loved him?
Val: Yeah I did. Or at least the version of him I knew
Val: Guess he didn't feel the same

Ben: perhaps..
Ben: Or maybe he was just kidding himself.
Val: How so?
Ben: He knew that you had strict feelings toward mystlings. Yet, the want to be human lead him to pass himself as one.
Ben: You made him feel human
Ben: You were his escape

Ben: but when his secret was revealed, he had to awake from his 'dream'
Ben: He probably didn't want you to see him as a mystling, or he didn't want ot face you as one.
Val: He should of come back though.
Ben: But you were so headstrong about your beliefs
Ben: Plus there is that children factor.
Ben: What if he had gone back?

Ben: What if he had gotten you pregnante?
Ben: wouldn't that be worse for you?
Ben: The girl who had commonly called the Mystlings monsters, is now pregnante with one?
Val: I wouln't of cared. He was my best friend
Ben: Best friend and Lover are two different things..
Ben: Unless.. I guess you are the casual sex type..

Val: I was willing to give it a go. Would be better then what actually happened
Ben: Then again it wasn't just you who heard about it.
Ben: Once your secret is out, everyone knows.
Ben: Plus how would you know what it's like to be rediculed?
Ben: your suppose to be normal..
Val: We could of taken off together.

Val: I know plenty.
Ben: Ah..!
Ben he perked up
Ben: But I thought there wasnt' much to tell?
Val: My best friend turned out to be a Mystling? You don't think everyone just forgot about that, do you?
Val: Took me years to get over that

Ben: And they would've had realized that he was lieing to everyone?
Ben: Don't you think he would've had other friends besides you?
Val: None as close
Ben shurgs
Ben: fair game
Ben: a friend is a friend.. I bet the felt they felt as least some of what you felt. if not hald.
Ben: half*
Val: None who were making out with him right before the 'big reveal'
Ben smiles
Ben: Ooohh, now we're getting juicy?
Val: -shrugs- Never got any further
Ben: Well, no no it's not that

Ben: It's just that im trying to understand how you are his bestfriend and his lover at the same time
Ben: er..
Ben: at least was..
Val: Had a crush on hm
for a little while, turns out he did to. We figured it out the day
before and were trying out the dating thing, I guess
Ben: So then why are you
referring to yourself as his bestfriend when I made the statement about
being pregnante with his child? clearly, im already on the next sheet
of music where we play about a serious relationship
Val: We never got too far before the incidente, whereas as was his best friend for a lot longer. So thats what i remember most

Ben: so your saying you'd rather refer to yourself as his bestfriend, not his lover?
Val: I'm saying its confusing.
Ben: now you just want to distance yourself from the situation.
Val: Well of course I do!
Ben: So then yes it was a good idea for Brock to keep away.
Ben he chuckled

Ben: im not pissing you off am I..?
Val: Hmph. -gets another drink-
Ben looked around the room, finding a small CD player sitting on one of the shelves
Ben: Call me old fashion..
Ben he reached into his bag, taking out some CD'S

Ben: I remember when these costed an' arm and a leg..
Val: I wouldn't know. Never relly been that into music. The radio's enough for me
Ben: Radio is full of cliche and over played songs
Val shrugs
Ben: and those over played songs are only famous because they have lyrics like.. 'disco stick' ..
Ben shudders

Ben: Listen to this.
Ben he'd take the CD player
down, poping open the hatch and setting it on the small table in the
middle of a few couches and recliners of the room
Val moves from the bar to one of the recliners to be able to hear clearly
Ben: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qF0pOmm4HcQ
Val: -listens- Hm. Not bad.

Ben: the sound quality from the speakers isn't too good..
Val: Still, not a bad song
Ben had begun to bob his head to the drums, the and the jazzy cool feel was always a good welcome.
Ben: Now I know you haven't heard these songs before not to like music very much
Ben: since these where made in the 70's..
Val: Pretty old then

Val finishes her drink
Ben: Do I dare ask you if you dance?
Val: Not sure if I've had enough to drink yet

Ben: Stand up
Val raises an eyebrow but does so
Ben he looked at the player, the song was pretty much over with
Ben: Alright, this next song is called Cisco kid.
Ben: http://www.wartheband.com/music.html

Val nodds, plaacing her empty glass on the table quickly
Ben as the song started, he had begun to mouth the words at Val,
Ben mostly bobed his shoulders and moved his arms to the song, really just staying in position.
Val chuckled, following his lead
Ben he'd bump into valeria playfully

Val shakes her head, smiling
Ben: haha whut?
Ben the song ended and begun with a slow, easy going song
Ben: ah, this is a nice mello one, it's called 'summer'
Ben: "riding around town before the wind goes down.. eight track playing all your favorite sounds.."

Ben moves his head when the bongo comes in
Ben: 'yes it's summer'
Ben he turned to valeria taking her arms and swaying them between them loosely
Val: Mellow is nice
Ben: hahaa

Ben he moved valeria in a circle, kind of like little kids just playing arund
Ben as the arms moved, he looked at his watch, realizing the time
Ben: oop..
Ben stopped ad held his wrist up
Ben: ma'm I gotta go.

Ben he turned back to the player and turned it off, then going back to his bag and put things away
Ben: I might be here tomorrow. possibly the same time.
Ben: Later Valeria.
Ben hoisting the bag over his shoulder, he headed toward the exit
Ben from x.x.x.80 left the chat 19 hours ago
Val from x.x.x.221 left the chat 12 hours ago

Part Two


Val from x.x.x.113 joined the chat 107 minutes ago
Val chills at her usual spot at the bar
Val decideds to get a head start on drinking considering how she's ended up drunk the last two times she's been in here
Orik from x.x.x.38 joined the chat 89 minutes ago

Orik walks up to the bar and sits next to val.
Orik: hey again.
Orik smiles at her.
Val: ...Hey. -a little awkward-
Orik notices her awkwardness.

Orik: ... whats wrong?
Orik seems concernend
Val: Nothing. Nothing at all.
Orik: good. *smiles* I told you that you'd have fun last time.
Val: -slight smile- Yeah. Guess it was fun.
Orik: and to think... we'd started off the night with a political debate... and ended with...

Orik fur on his face raises in his form of blush and he doesnt finish his sentence.
Val: Dancing?
Orik: ... that... and...
Orik he reaches out for her hand, attempting to grab it in his gently.
Brock from x.x.x.216 joined the chat 83 minutes ago
Val: Ah. Yes, that. -allows the hand holding for now-
Brock coughs
Val is already a bit tipsy
Brock: right...just here for a drink...don't mind me
Orik turns toward the new person and shrugs, turning back to val.
Val nods in aknowledgement but doesn't say anything
Brock sits on a section of the bar that puts his back to them, grabbing a beer from behind the bar
Val eyes his choice then snorts as if somethings funny
Orik smiles.
Orik: whats funny?

Val: -shakes head- Such a weak choice. -takes a sip from her scotch-
Orik raises an eyebrow and releases her hand.
Orik: you know brock?
Val: You could say that
Orik: .... oh... i see... well... uh...
Orik leans forward and whispers.

Brock huffs out a laugh and shakes his head
Orik: you want me to do anything to make sure he leaves you alone... for the most part.
Val: -considers, then shakes her head- Nah. I can handle it. Thanks
Brock skin flashes metallic for a moment
Orik: alright *leans back* so anyway...

Brock: ...choose your actions wisely
Orik see's brock flash metal.
Val waves a hand
Orik: ... whoa... you guys REALLY dont like each other...
Val: Chill out.

Brock speaks over his shoulder
Val: I'm not gonna start anything tonight -finishes her drink and pours herself a refill-
Brock: thats a bit of an understatement
Orik: ....
Orik looks back and forth between them.

Orik: mind if i ask what happened?
Val is well on her way to being drunk, and is feeling way relaxed and cheery because of it
Brock: all i'll tell you is be careful...she hates our kind
Orik: i know... we had a debate about it last time i was here... it ended up with me dancing with her... and....
Val frowns but doesn't say anything to contridict the statement

Orik reaches out and grabs her hand again, though this time a bit more awkwardly.
Brock stands and faces them
Val giggles slightly
Brock: we've done more than dance...it doesn't mean anything
Orik stands, just in case this is a threat.

Brock goes behind the bar to find something stronger
Val rolls her eyes
Orik: i dont sense any evil from her... and you know i'm good at that brock
Brock raises from behind the bar with a bottle of whiskey
Brock: how about backstabbing

Brock ducks down again, then raises with rum
Brock: or sinister?
Orik: .... there's anger... but not... evil... *eyes narrow*... how is she sinister?... how did she backstab you?
Val: Backstabbing? You're one to talk
Brock drinks straight from the whiskey bottle and then points at her

Brock: i still don't want to talk to you, you ruined my life that day
Orik: ..... wait... we dont want a fight... do we?
Val: I ruined your life?
Orik: ... val... brock... calm down... please... both of you...

Brock: yes, that is what i said
Val: I seem to remeber things a bit differently
Orik uses his sonic ability to shake the entire building.
Orik: ENOUGH!
Brock: I remember me
reaching out to you in a time of absolute need...when i was more alone
than anyone else in this world...and you stepped away!
Brock turns metallic and glares at Orik

Val: -ignores the shaking and Orik in general-
Val: You never gave me a chance to say anything! I hadn't even proceesed what happened before you ran!
Orik has yellow eyes that have
a slight amount of red in them, making his once blue eyes appear
yellow-orange. Usually this means he's about to lose control
Brock blood pumped through his veins like ice
Orik is having trouble keeping his voice calm.

Jeremy Dillard from x.x.x.161 joined the chat 66 minutes ago
Orik: both... of you.... need to calm... down....
Brock: i'm sorry...did you want me to wait for the whole mob to jump on me before you spoke up?!
Orik takes a deep breath and speaks to himself.
Orik: as do i...

Val: I fucking waited for you to come back for months. I even tried to find a way to get a message to you
Brock all the glasses began clattering, the ground beneath them shaking
Brock: I WAS LIVING IN ALPHA SITE SLUMS!
Orik sighs and takes a step toward Brock.
Brock: with everyone else who had been betrayed by their friends and families!!

Brock bottles fall from their shelves
Orik: you need to calm down before i have to take you down... so you dont kill anyone you dont want to.
Brock faces Orik
Brock: Then take me down dog boy. put me out of my misery!
Orik has a serious expression, but is trying to be a friend at the same time

Val: -is starting to tear up a bit through the anger- You couldn't have tried coming back? Not even for me?
Orik: ... i dont want to hurt you brock... but i will if you dont get yourself under control
Val: And here I thought we were friends
Jeremy Dillard breaks a bottle over the edge of the counter
Jeremy Dillard: Enough.
Orik: .... i tried that jeremy... doesnt work with these two

Jeremy Dillard: It will. She wouldn't bother him if he didn't care, and she wouldn't be speaking to him if she didn't.
Brock: a friend wouldn't
of had to think about whether or not they'd take the hand of someone
they apparently cared about who was singled out
Jeremy Dillard: So whichever one of you keeps going, I'm going to lacerate the other.
Jeremy Dillard: Sit. Opposite ends of the bar.
Orik turns on jeremy with a
growl, then seems to understand and reluctantly lets stands down, but
keeps near Val in a protective stance.
Val: Can you blame me
for needing a second to process? Something I thought I knew for years
turns out to be a lie. -reluctantly sits down, descretly whiping her
eyes-

Val takes a long drink directly from whatever bottle's closest to try to calm down
Jeremy Dillard slowly begins to lower his own weapon, a very gradual process that been used on him to lower the tension in the room
Brock takes a few more gulps of whiskey and then throws the bottle back over the bar, the tremors stopping
Brock: you can all wallow in it...i'm out of here
Jeremy Dillard: Brock... You were never one to run.

Val: -mutters very quietly- 'm sorry
Brock looks at jeremy
Brock: i've been running from her for 10 years!
Jeremy Dillard: And she's the only thing you've ever run from!
Jeremy Dillard: You've changed since then, you don't run any more. You're stronger than you used to be.
Jeremy Dillard: You're
one of the most trusted and responsible people in Alpha and it's
because when things get hard, you find a way to make them work.

Jeremy Dillard: How many fights have you broken up when food got slim?
Brock: the only reason im even in alpha site is because of her jeremy
Brock: you weren't there that day
Brock: you don't understand what its like...to have the only person you've ever loved turn there back on you
Val: -quietly, not even looking at Brock- You've been running from me? For ten years?
Val: -sarcastic chuckle- Explains why I was never able to find you, I guess
Brock moves his hands to his hair, his skin returning to normal, then looks off towards Orik.
Brock: i'm sorry Orik...she makes me...i'm just sorry
Jeremy Dillard has long since laid down the bottle and been sitting down, no weapons are currently raised
Val continues avoiding looking at Brock and takes another long drink from the bottle she grabbed
Brock slowly approaches Val and whispers in her ear
Jeremy Dillard: I'm going to leave you two to talk things out. Brock, I'll see you back at the Alpha Site later.
Jeremy Dillard from x.x.x.161 left the chat 46 minutes ago
Brock: you may of hurt me a long time ago...but you hurt anyone else...Orik included...i'll kill you myself
Val mutely nods
Val descretly wipes at her eyes again before taking another drink
Brock whispers again
Brock: I wish I could forgive you...but it would ruin the story
Brock shrugs
Brock: ah fuck it
Brock pulls her backwards and lays a wet one on her
Jeremy Dillard from x.x.x.161 joined the chat 41 minutes ago
Val returns it with pleasure
Jeremy Dillard has picked a bad time to remember his overcoat
Jeremy Dillard: Well, at least the bar hasn't collapsed...
Brock isn't even aware Jeremy has returned
Val isn't even aware of anything else
Brock slowly pulls away from the kiss and places her back in her chair, staring at her
Brock: i've missed that
Jeremy Dillard grabs his jacket and tiptoes towards the door, but trips and hits his forehead on a table
Val: -chuckles- I'll say
Brock finally becomes aware of Jeremy
Brock: oh...shit...hey dude
Val giggles a bit
Orik blinks and shakes his head after zoning out.
Orik: .... what i miss?
Jeremy Dillard: Hello, just grabbing my coat... Sorry to interrupt...
Val: -blushes- Ummm..
Orik: ... what?
Orik is completely oblivious
Val doesn't want to say anything and avoids meeting Orik's eyes
Brock scratches his head looking the other direction
Brock: .....yeah
Orik: .... fight's over?
Orik: ... sorry.... kind of zoned out there...
Val: ...You could say that
Orik: what happened?

Brock: ...the fight ended
Orik smiles.
Orik: good.
Val nods agreement
Brock pulls up a bar stool and pours himself a glass of Val's scotch

Orik turns around and hops over
the counter, disappearing momentarily before poping up with three shot
glasses and some randomly assorted bottles.
Orik: who's up for some shots?
Brock: always
Orik looks at val.
Jeremy Dillard idles back to the bar, for once deciding that tonight would be an excellent night to drink.

Val: Sure, why not
Orik: Val?
Orik: .... oh... Jeremy... thought you left...
Orik pulls out another glass, then pours the four shots.
Orik smiles and holds his up, waiting on everyone else

Ben from x.x.x.5 joined the chat 22 minutes ago
Val takes hers
Jeremy Dillard picks up his glass, tilts it towards the newcomer, and drains it
Brock downs his own
Orik drains his glass after jeremy.

Ben he comes back in with his bag, noticing jeremy and orik
Orik waves at ben and pours some more shots.
Val drinks hers as well
Orik: want some?
Ben: Well I see that we are drinking heavily tonight, what's the occasion?

Orik: .... uh..... no fighting?
Val: -spies Ben- Hey, Ben. -smiles-
Jeremy Dillard: No occasion, I just decided to drink.
Orik shrugs and downs his.
Brock: Val and I have put our differences behind us
Ben he'd nod towards val

Ben: Oh goodie..
Ben: does that mean it's baby making time?
Ben he stuck his tongue out
Orik responds with wide eyes.
Val blushes

Orik: THATS AWESO-... huh.... babies?
Brock: uh....um..........
Brock glances at Val
Orik turns to val looking confused.
Jeremy Dillard has decided it is most certainly a good night to drink.

Brock drinks scotch from the bottle
Val: Um... -tries to figure out a way to explain-
Jeremy Dillard hops the bar and grabs a carafe of sake
Orik has a lost puppy expression.
Ben: Lemem guess, your pregnant already?

Val decides to drink instead
Orik widens his eyes even more
Ben: Leave it to me to bring on the awkard sexual tension
Brock looks at val
Orik: HOW MUCH.... did i miss?

Brock: you better not be!
Ben: Appearently hot sweaty make up sex
Orik: but... but... but.... but i...
Val: I'm not! Really! I wouldn't be drinking if I was
Orik 's ears droop and he pouts.
Orik: but i like val...

Ben: Oh we have another contender on the side?
Ben he'd look at Orik
Ben: What are you guys? squealy, horny teenagers?
Orik looks all sad
Brock: only in our fingertips
Brock looks over his shoulder as if he was staring into a camera
Val: There was no sex! -does not sound dissapointed at all no really she doesnt-
Ben he'd set his large bag down, opening it up
Ben: Sure
Ben: Just oral sex then?
Orik purks up.
Orik: there wasnt?@
Orik: ?!*
Val: None
Brock: wait...so you wouldn't have sex with me given the opportunity then?
Ben: uh huh

Ben: Oh don't worry brocoli, she would.
Orik: ... i would!... um... with... val... i mean...
Orik is obviously a little drunk.
Shuanna from x.x.x.5 joined the chat 14 minutes ago
Val: -whispers-I didn't say that -is just digging herself into a holw-

Jeremy Dillard is halfway through his carafe, and this gets funnier every sip
Shuanna bursts from the bag, gasping for air
Shuanna: ..!!! D8
Ben: Oh, sorry pumpkin, I forgot I put you in there..
Orik: .... uh.... what was shuanna doing in that bag?

Ben: wouldn't you like to know, lover boy?
Brock whispers to Val
Shuanna: ...Ben..
Orik: lover boy?.... what?
Brock: you realize you're going to have to choose....
Val: -glad to have another topic that is not her sex life- How long has she been in there?

Ben: Long enough for me to smuggle her out
Orik picks up on brock's comment w/ his wolf-like ears.
Shuanna: Ben!
Val: -whispers back- I already have. Just don't want to hurt any feelings
Ben: What?
Orik: .... smuggle her out of where?

Shuanna: help me out!
Ben: hold on guys..
Orik grabs onto the bar.
Orik: like this?
Ben he'd reach in, unfolding her legs which her knees hugged her ears, literally

Ben: Yeh that's good..
Ben: you'd be amazed how flexible woman are..
Ben: with a little training that is..
Ben: ...
Orik: .... really... how flexible?
Ben: I didn't mean it like that..

Jeremy Dillard casually walks
over to Ben, tripping twice and leaning heavily on everything he can,
and make an obvious swipe for the bag containing Shuanna
Ben: .......
Orik: mean it like how?
Orik is oblivious to the sexual reference.
Ben takes a hold of Jeremy's hair

Ben: Don't make me hang you in my warehouse.
Orik turns back to val, dismissing ben and jeremy.
Shuanna: ben..
Ben: What?
Shuanna: Let go of my ankles!
Orik: ... so... who'd you pick... it's best to put down the one you didn't now... so he cant get too attached and whatnot...

Ben: oh.. right..
Ben he'd let go of shuanna's legs, turning back to Jeremy and boping him on the head
Jeremy Dillard blacks out for a moment, and then staggers away drunkenly
Val: Um. -tries to put this delicately- Well, it's not that I don't like you...
Shuanna gets out of the back, flopping onto the ground

Ben he'd laugh
Jeremy Dillard: That'll teach you to kidnap girls...
Ben: OF course..
Orik 's ears droop again.
Orik: ... i see...

Jeremy Dillard wanders off to the bathroom, wretching is heard from just inside the door, nowhere near the toilet
Orik: well.... best i learn it now... i guess...
Val: I'm sorry, I really am. It's just...
Ben: Hey Orik, why not I rent shuanna to you? She's still fresh I haven't touched anything
Shuanna: Gee, Ben that's so kind of you..
Orik: .... um... rent?

Ben: She has the new leather smell..
Shuanna smells like the bag
Orik: ... no... i get it val... *smiles*... friends?
Val: -nods, smiling- Friends
Shuanna: Aaawww...
Brock leans his head towards Val

Orik: ... good...
Shuanna has no idea what's going on
Brock: I really hope you don't forget all this when you sober tomorrow
Orik turns to Ben.
Ben: Oh i'd have a hell of a time

Orik: i know what she smells like...
Val: I have a mind like a steel trap I'll have you know
Ben: I wouldn't let you live that one down, Brocolli
Orik whispers to brock.
Brock: Oh, well, good. make sure you remind me in the morning. ::takes another shot::
Orik: i might have to remind her for you.

Orik: *to himself*... and you... apparently...
Val: In the morning? -raises an eyebrow-
Orik turns to shuanna.
Orik: ... well... i feel like dancing... you?
Shuanna she gets up, sporting new cloths instead of bedsheets
Jeremy Dillard returns, his suit soaking wet and his tie missing entirely
Shuanna she had on a black coat, obviously Ben's taste, with a little vest over a pinstripe white shirt and a long black skirt
Orik makes a mental note: "jeremy drinks a LOT when he drinks."
Brock: I just assumed...we'd see eachother in the morning...
Orik: ..... annnnd.. i'm being ignored...
Ben: see? doesn't she look nice?
Shuanna: It's a little.. formal..
Val: Oh? Any reason why? -wicked grin-
Shuanna: ..orik?
Orik: .... hell... i dont wear clothes..... all i need's my fur
Jeremy Dillard staggers back to the bathroom for it's more conventional purpose
Orik smiles.
Shuanna she waved softly to him
Orik waves back.
Shuanna: I think last time we met, I suddenly had to go.. im sorry for that..
Orik shrugs.
Orik: happens.
Shuanna: I've always felt bad about that, I didn't mean to leave you hanging..
Orik: dont worry about it... if you absolutely want to make it up to me...
Brock: well, one way or
another we'll see eachother tomorrow. whether that be...coffee
somewhere or...::coughs:: we wake up next to eachother or...somethin
Orik vaults the bar and lands in front of shuanna with a small stagger, then regains his balance and extends his hand.
Orik: dance with me

Ben: By the way, pumpkin you owe me 400 bucks for the cloths..
Shuanna: ...
Val laughs
Ben: Have fun..
Ben smiled at shuanna

Shuanna: ...you really are evil arn't you..?
Ben: indeed
Val: -whispers- I think I prefe the second option
Orik turns to ben.
Orik: why cant she give them back after tonight?
Brock: ::glances at her:: then why are we still here?

Shuanna she took Orik's hand dantily
Orik: .... Ben... put some music on.
Orik smiles at shuanna.
Val: Not sure.
Ben: 'cause those are the only pair of cloths we got

Ben: well, excuse me, SHE has
Ben: I kept the receipt
Orik: ....
Brock stands and scoops her up off the stool
Jeremy Dillard finishes with a flush and much washing of hands, and then faceplants slipping in the puddle left from cleaning his earlier mess

Ben: again
Brock: where shall we go?
Ben: Have fun
Orik gives shuanna a once over glance with a slightly drunken eye.
Orik: ... she... might not need them by the end of the night...
Shuanna blinks

Ben: WOAH
Val: -laughs- Where ever's closeby
Orik: ... what?
Ben: hey buddy if your going to bump unglies, don't be too rough with'er okay?
Ben: Use a condamn
Ben: If you don't have one I got a stash

Brock peeks out the door
Orik: alright... i'll make sure i ask you for one if it gets that far...
Brock: where the fuck is this break room located?
Ben reaches into his coat, which had large pockets on the side, and pulls out a hanful
Ben: Brocolli!

Ben: So you don't have any complications later..
Val: I think there's a hotel attatched
Orik pulls at the fur on his sides.
Orik: ... no pockets
Jeremy Dillard returns, toilet paper in his nose

Brock heads to the stairs leading to the upstairs hotel, passing ben and taking a handful
Jeremy Dillard: This is why I don't drink.
Brock: yes, steel scowling babies would be bad
Val laughs
Val: think you got enogh there?

Brock: ....yeah...you're right. ::grabs more::
Orik begins dancing with Shuanna and despite his drunkenness... he isnt bad (though he's not great either).
Shuanna she giggles loudly as orik begun to dance with her, clumsyly she followed his lead
Ben: I feel like a sex ed teacher for chrissake..
Ben: HEY Leave a couple for me an' the dog and the dame!

Orik: so shuanna... how're your feet?... fixed up good?
Brock: sorry mate ::gives one back:: i can stay hard as long as i want though ::grins and flashes metallic for a moment::
Shuanna she smiled warmly
Ben: Oh your sick
Orik stops dancing.

Ben he laughed at brock
Orik: .... that is a bit desturbing...
Ben: But that is helpful..
Orik goes back to dancing.
Ben: I guess you wouldn't have to worry about taking Viagra in a few years, eh?

Shuanna shudders
Shuanna: BEN!
Val: -giggles- Nice
Ben: What?
Ben: Viagra?
Shuanna: ...

Orik begins to dance a little bit more sexually oriented.
Ben: If they made Viagra for Women, then they would make BILLIONS
Ben: I gotta invent that..
Ben: that's my next project, Shuanna! c'mere
Shuanna: ..!! no!
Shuanna she clinged to Orik

Orik: .... well hi...
Orik takes the opportunity to lick her on the cheek. (his equivilent of a kiss)
Sherry from x.x.x.38 joined the chat
Ben: You honestly want to be with a horny,dog then with a sly, smooth talk'un guy?
Jeremy Dillard: Hello Sherry.
Shuanna: ...?sherry?
Sherry: good evening jeremy.
Shuanna: Hello sherry!
Sherry: ... yes shuanna?
Sherry smiles.
Sherry: good evening.

Orik: oh.... uh... hey mom...
Shuanna she turned to sherry, breaking her contact with orik and smling, bowing her head in respect
Ben: Hey..
Orik lets go of shuanna...
Ben he'd look to sherry

Ben: how old are you?
Sherry turns to ben.
Jeremy Dillard: (Sherry, Orik's adopted mother, human looking w/ blue hair and power over water, and when she gets wet she's mermaidish)
Brock nods to Sherry
Sherry: and just who are you?

Brock: evening...
Sherry: ... i'm 48 thank you...
Sherry: hello brock.
Ben: oh? haha
Sherry smiles.
Val still clinging to Brock, waves at Sherry

Ben he'd get up off the couch, moving to sherry
Shuanna: ..oh god..
Sherry: ... oh... and who's this?... Orik... is this that woman you spoke of?
Shuanna she'd hide her face
Brock: If uh, you don't mind. Excuse us. ::kisses Val and carries her upstairs::

Part Three!


Orik: yup...
Sherry: ... well... i hope they can at least keep it down...
Orik: mom!
Sherry: what?... it's a natural thing...
Ben: My name is Benjamin vereskct, call me Ben
Orik: still...

Ben he'd take her hand and kiss it lightly
Sherry looks surprised at ben's introduction.
Shuanna shakes her head in disapproval
Sherry: ... why hello there... um... how old did you say you were?
Jeremy Dillard drinks a little more to help the hangover

Orik stands by shuanna.
Orik: ... uh... please tell me she doesnt embarrass me...
Sherry rolls her eyes at Orik
Ben: Well im in my mid 30's. I have to say I am taken a back by you
Sherry: ... thank you... but... i'm not really interested in anyone at this point in time... i appologise...

Ben as he still holds her hand, he rubbs his thumb into the back of her hand, noticing a peculiar feel
Orik turns to shuanna without taking his eyes off sherry and ben.
Orik: is he hitting on her?
Shuanna she whispered to orik
Jeremy Dillard snorts a bit

Shuanna: no.. it's a trick..
Jeremy Dillard: Well duh.
Sherry blushes lightly.
Sherry: um... if you dont mind, ben, i'd like my hand back...
Shuanna: ..he wants to..kill her..! .. I donno what to do!
Ben: Of course' m'am.

Orik: what's he trying to... what?!
Sherry: thank you.
Ben he'd let go, standing up straight, and walking towards the bar
Sherry smiles politely at ben.
Sherry moves to sit by him.

Ben he'd nod to her, smiling a bit differently then usual
Orik watches them intently.
Sherry: ... are you going to buy me a drink?
Shuanna: what are we gonna do? ..
Orik: ... if he tries anything, she can take care of herself... but that doesnt mean i can't help her...

Ben: haha, certainly. What would you like?
Shuanna: ...! ..but..!
Shuanna: Ben can teleport..
Sherry: ... i'm not much of a drinker... order me what you usually have...
Shuanna: that means he could automatically appear behind you.. and !
Orik: ... my mother can manipulate the water anywhere around her... as long as it's there... she's safe.

Jeremy Dillard stands and stretches
Orik turns to shuanna and whispers urgently.
Jeremy Dillard: I'm gonna head back to the Alpha Site for the night.
Orik: turn on all the sinks in the womens restroom!
Val: *meanwhile, upstairs*

Ben: I see, well why not we go with somthing light?
Orik goes to do so in the men's room.
Val kisses Brock deeply
Shuanna: ..!! .. I gotta go to the bathroom!!
Sherry: alright.

Sherry smiles plesently.
Shuanna she says this rather loudly before running to the women's bathroom
Ben he'd look to shuanna suspiciously
Sherry: so, Mr. Ben... what do you do for a living?
Ben shaking his head lightly, he looked at Sherry again, getting up and going behind the bar to fetch somthing

Jeremy Dillard picks up his coat and heads out, whistling derangedly and entirely out of character teh moment he passes the door
Brock returns it, pulling them backwards onto a bed
Sherry: oh... you're allowed to do that?
Ben: yeh haha, it's fine
Jeremy Dillard from x.x.x.161 left the chat 4 seconds ago

Sherry: if you say so...
Ben: Well, I used to be the CEO of a corperation.
Ben: For coffee.. hah
Sherry: really?... what organization?
Val runs her hands over Brock, intent on undressing him
Sherry smiles politely.

Sherry: i've never been one for coffee.
Ben: yeh but americans are addicted to it
Ben: that's why it pays wel
Sherry: i'm just as american as anyone else... *smirks defiantly, yet playfully.*
Orik emerges from the restroom with wet paper towels and throws them in a nearby wastepaperbasket.
Brock pulls the covers up over their heads smirking
Shuanna turns on the water in the sink, eventually overflowing them and falling down on her ass
Orik 's ears twitch at the sound of shuanna falling, but does nothing... yet.
Ben: Well when I think american I think of many different cultures combined, living together in harmony and execpting one another.
Ben: but I guess that's the reason why the call it the american dream.. haha
Sherry giggles lightly and elegantly.
Shuanna: Oooow..
Sherry: i agree
Shuanna she'd sit up shakyily, rubbing her charlie horsed butt
Orik makes his way over to the women's restroom, trying to remain unnoticed.
Val practically attacks Brock under the covers
Ben: Now once congress
understands that mystlings are like humans mentally and emotionally
then that's when this country can truely be called 'america'
Brock awhile later
Shuanna: ...aah..! im okay..! ..im okay..!
Brock the entire building began shaking as if a strong earthquake was taking place on the floor above the bar
Sherry: yes... i agree whole-heartedly. Predjudices have too much stake in society today.
Ben: ........
Ben notices the bottles shaking
Shuanna: Oh!!
Sherry shakes her head and smiles.
Shuanna: Oh shi-!!
Shuanna she'd fall down again
Sherry: ... brock and his... um... well... i guess i'll leave it at that...
Orik takes the opportunity to slip into the woman's restroom unnoticed and walk up to shuanna.
Orik: are you alright?

Shuanna: I hate these tremors! where are they coming from!?
Brock stumbles down the stares half naked
Brock: sorry bout that everyone!
Ben sighs
Orik: from brock... and Val...

Ben: ...dood
Sherry smiles lightly.
Ben: Put some cloths on..
Sherry: brock... you should be more careful
Shuanna: ..what? how so?
Val laughs loudly
Orik: it's part of brock's power... just like i have a sonic resonance in my voice at times...
Ben: If I had somthing like that I wouldn't be walking around.. I'd be out..
Brock just then realizes he only has his boxers on
Brock: right...clothes...my bad
Ben: uugh..
Sherry giggles lightly again.

Ben: You used the condoms i gave you right?
Sherry: it isnt anything i havent seen before on other men...
Ben smiles
Brock: I'll be sleeping
though...exhausted and all...dunno if Val is staying down to drink more
or whatnot...see you all tomorrow ::stumbles back up the stairs::
Sherry thinks "though Brock does have a body i would have liked to be with in my twenties"

Shuanna: ...what?! how'd brock do that?
Shuanna: I thought he only could become metallic!
Val has stayed upstairs the whole time, and has fallen asleep
Orik: as i understand
it... he subconsciously manipulates the minerals and rocks around him,
feeding them enough energy to generate earthquakes... its an extremely
powerful and dangerous ability
Brock cuddles into bed with Val and falls asleep

Sherry looks around and notices orik isn't in the room, then leans forward to speak with ben.
Shuanna: If it's so dangerous then why did he use it just now? isn't he with Val?
Sherry: you wouldnt have to have one of those condoms left... would you?
Orik: he... cant exactly control it ALL the time... though he can usually make sure no one is in danger.
Ben pauses for a bit

Ben: ...pardon?
Sherry sits up straight.
Ben: well..
Sherry: just
because i'm almost fifty doesnt mean i've lost my sex drive... and you
seem to be attracted to me... also... my son appears to have left...
Ben he'd reach back into his pocket, pulling one condom out

Sherry smiles and stands before looking around to find a place to go.
Sherry: shall we?
Ben he was completely floored,
but kept his reserve. He didn't like this.. The fact that she wanted
sex so quickly killed his buzz. Suddenly he had no urge to kill her.
But he was willing for some nookie at least..
Ben: Sure.
Brock from x.x.x.216 left the chat 7 hours ago

Ben he smiled, hoping over the counter and walking to her side
Sherry: lead the way ben.
Sherry moves to let him take her arm.
Ben smiled letting her take his arm and moving away upstairs, passing the bathrooms
Ben as he walked, he noticed the floor was wet

Ben stopping he looked down
Ben: what the..?
Shuanna: ...!!! .. are they?
Orik presses his finger to shuanna's mouth.
Shuanna: ..........

Sherry turns to ben.
Sherry: is something wrong?
Ben: The bathrooms are flooding..
Shuanna: !!!!!!
Sherry looks down.

Sherry: hmm.... so they are...
Sherry smiles as the water creeps back into the sinks, the floors drying and the sinks somehow turning off.
Sherry: better?
Orik gulps.
Ben: Come to think of it, Shuanna said she went to the bathroom

Ben he'd knock on the door
Ben: 'Ey.. Pumpkin? you in there?
Orik turns to Shuanna and mouths "hide"
Shuanna she paniced
Ben: Hey! Shuanna!

Orik picks shuanna up and moves toward the window, leaping out silently, manipulating the air to slow their fall to the ground.
Ben: I"ll have you know im not that embarrassed to barge into a womans bathroom
Sherry: ... perhaps i should go in?
Shuanna she held onto orik tightly
Ben: I guess that would be best..

Orik whispers.
Orik: come on... we dont want to let him kill my mother...
Orik turns back toward the building.
Shuanna: ...but how can we? she manipulated the water back into the sinks!
Sherry goes in and checks. After about fourty seconds she re-emerges.

Ben: ?
Sherry: there's no one inside ben... she must have gone back downstairs when we weren't paying attention.
Orik: i can still control the air... and you can do something useful, Right?
Orik hurries inside.
Shuanna frowns

Shuanna: ...
Orik: what?
Orik sets shuanna down.
Ben: ..hmm..
Ben: well..
Ben: alright..

Shuanna: I can't do much..
Sherry: ... so...
Shuanna: im useless..
Sherry moves up and presses her chest and body against ben's.
Sherry: ... where were we?
Orik: no one is useless... without you i wouldnt be able to protect her... would it?

Orik: now come on...
Shuanna sighs
Orik: i*
Ben: heh..
Ben he'd smile warmly, rubbing sherry's back sensually, before looking at the bathroom

Sherry smiles, looking up at ben expectantly.
Ben: So you manipulate water do you?
Sherry: ... yes... what do you do?
Orik quietly moves over to the stairs and creeps up them slowly, being as quiet as possible.
Ben: Well I can teleport short distances, but bound long distances..

Ben: like over a tall building..
Ben mocked
Sherry laughs quietly.
Sherry: really?... that is a unique ability...
Shuanna she moved to orik, leaning into his back and looking over his shoulder

Ben: Yeh but I guess superman beat me to it..
Orik makes sure he doesnt move close enough to be seen.
Sherry giggles.
Sherry: indeed... now... are you going to take me to a room or what?
Sherry gives Ben an impatient smile.

Ben: heheheh why not a bathroom?
Sherry smiles.
Sherry: alright...
Sherry stands on her tiptoes in an attempt to kiss him first.
Ben: im sure some perspiration would make things all the more exciting

Ben: ...
Ben he'd kiss sherry deeply, moving a hand to the back of her head
Shuanna: ....
Shuanna: are you sure you can watch this..? ..orik?
Sherry closes her eyes durring the kiss. then moves into the bathroom.

Orik: shh!...
Orik his body is completely
tense and his fingers have formed the shape of claws as his blue eyes
show a hint of red in them, causing a slight amount of purple near his
pupils.
Shuanna: ....
Sherry doesnt notice shuanna's or Orik's voices
Shuanna she'd start to worry, causing her to be a little light headed

Ben he'd move inside the bathroom, pulling away from the kiss but still very close to her, he'd breathe out
Ben: okay how are we gonna do this..?
Sherry: ... any way you want...
Sherry begins to remove her top.
Orik moves to the door, but cant muster up the willpower to look inside.

Shuanna she'd whisper close to orik's ear
Shuanna: that coat of his is dangerous! .. He has all kind of..- of..!!
Ben: Haha.. well well! we're anxious arn't we?
Ben he'd take off his coat, not really caring if it got wet
Orik speaks harshly under his breath.

Shuanna falls over Orik and smacks her head into the door
Orik: all kinds of what?
Orik manipulates the air to make her hit the air and make no sound.
Ben: .......
Orik whispers harshly.

Orik: Careful!
Shuanna: ....
Sherry moves up to ben and begins to undress him the rest of the way.
Orik 's eyes have more red in them now.
Shuanna she'd whisper

Shuanna: orik..?
Orik: ......
Orik: what?
Shuanna: ...I need'a tinkle..
Orik grits his teeth as his eyes redden even more.
Orik: use the men's restroom.

Shuanna: ....
Shuanna: orik..
Shuanna: your not mad at me are you..?
Orik: yeah?
Orik: ........
Ben: Haahahahaa! wooah!! wooah!

Orik sighs and takes a deep breath, closing his eyes in the process, when he opens them, his eyes are blue once again.
Orik: no... just... trying to stay calm is all...
Sherry pulls back.
Sherry: ... is something wrong?
Sherry looks confused.

Ben: nothing nothing, it's just that you're getting a little crazy
Sherry: crazy?... i am?
Sherry looks slightly worried.
Ben: Well I mean,
personally I'd like to go a little slow before the get go. I can't just
charge in there with a floppy disk if you know what I mean..
Sherry smiles.

Shuanna: ...
Shuanna clamps her hand over her mouth, trying to hide her laugh
Shuanna: ..floppy disk..
Sherry: don't you worry about that... just relax...
Sherry begins to run kisses down his chest toward his lower regions.

Orik is trying not to growl.
Shuanna she whispered
Shuanna: is it me or does it feel like we're watching soft porn..?
Ben: heh heh..
Orik finally loses control and the door is thrust open with a blast of wind as orik stands in the doorway, growling.

Sherry quickly covers her chest.
Ben: ....
Sherry: ORIK!
Ben looks to orik, his pants down and his heart dotted boxers showing
Ben: ....

Ben: well.. that pretty much kills the buzz..
Orik steps forward with a menacing growl as wind rushes past him toward ben.
Shuanna: ..!! orik!!
Ben: !!
Sherry looks shocked.

Ben teleports behind shuanna, although his pants are left on the ground
Ben covers his tenders behind shuanna
Orik 's eyes are deep red, and his gaze focus's on Sherry.
Orik steps forward, still growling.
Shuanna: ....!!

Sherry looks at ben and shuanna.
Sherry: RUN!... both of you!
Ben he looked to shuanna fiercly
Ben: You bitch
Shuanna: .....!! b-ben!

Ben he'd grab a hold of Shuanna, teleporting onto the roof
Orik roars in a howl of rage as a nova of wind encompases him, tearing apart the building with the blades maid of pure air.
Sherry protects herself with water from the nearby pipes, shielding herself at the last possible moment.
Shuanna: Aaughh!! Orik!! nooo! Please!!
Shuanna she clinged to Ben helplessly

Ben: Shuanna!!
Ben he bounded up into the air, trying to escape
Shuanna: ..!!???
Ben: SCREAM!
Shuanna: ...!! Aaaugh!! BUT!!!
Ben: DO IT!

Orik turns toward the sound
with a growl and launches himself after both of them, the air visibly
rippling as he passes through it but more force than either of them
thought possible, howling in anger.
Ben he'd take her in his arms, turning around in mid-air and facing both him and shuanna in Oriks direction
Ben: SCREAM!
Orik howls with a sound burst, the air rippling with the effect as the force reaches out toward them, threatening to engulf them.
Sherry 's voice is heard as if from far away.
Sherry: just run!
Shuanna she took a deep breath,
opening her throat widely she let out an ear shattering scream, so
menacingly loud it created sound waves that clashed against Orik's
howls and winds
Ben: !!!!!
Orik clashed against shuanna's
opposing soundwave and thrust his hand out, appearing to block the
incoming air that neutralized his own sound burst with a single hand.
Thrusting his other hand forward, he tore through it and continued to
advance, the wind around all three of them rising to huricane force
winds in the process.
Ben: Jesus!
Shuanna: BEN!!
Sherry is now dressed and seems to be following them, standing on a platform of water as she moves through the air.
Ben: hold on pumpkin!
Sherry: i told you to run! Teleport out of there!
Ben taking Shuanna he teleported down to the ground, and bounded a mile away form orik
Ben once in cover, he hid shuanna in a tree and bounced back to find his cloths
Sherry seemingly battle's
orik in some sort of sky battle before the winds finally die down, and
the figures begin to descend before one catches the other and they both
return to the bar.
Ben his pants slapped his face, as it had been hurled around with the wind
Ben slipping on his pants, he
found that he had no shirt on, and his ponytail was out, leaving his
long hair to rest on his shoulders
Ben: damn that bitch..

Ben angryly, in a series of teleports he reached the place
Orik is unconsious on the bar.
Ben walking in he had seen that Orik was out, cursing ot himself, wishing he was awake so he can chew his ear off
Sherry is sitting on one
of the stools with what looks like dark bluish-green blood staining
some of her "skin," which seems to have been cut from her in several
places, but already seems healed.
Sherry sighs when she see's ben.

Ben his face softened, taking a moment to regain his composre.
Ben: So much for that Idea..
Sherry: sorry
about that... i told you i didn't want to do anything with him here...
he.... lets his emotions get to him sometimes... and he loses control...
Ben: If I recall correctly, you said that it seemed the he left, not that if He saw me with you that he'd go into a wild frenzy.
Sherry: i didn't
know he'd react so violently... he's never seen me be intimate
before... though... i would think that he had more control.
Sherry looks at Orik with a saddened frown.

Sherry: ... i dont like hurting my son...
Sherry turns back to ben.
Sherry: or anyone for that matter.
Ben: I guess it's understandable.
Ben: If I had my coat.. It might've been differently..
Ben: Maybe it was for the better...

Sherry: ... i'd be surprised if there was much left of your coat.... i am deeply sorry... i didn't want this...
Ben he was alarmed inside, but calmy he shook his head
Ben: It couldn't be helped.
Ben: Would you know if the next time he saw me, would he come after me like this agian?
Sherry: ..... i
dont think he would... but he wasnt coming after just you... when he's
like that... he'll attack anything, and anyone... you just got the
short end of the stick i'm afraid...
Sherry: ... one way of knowing when to run... his eyes... they'll be a pure, blood red...

Ben: Well
Ben: Just a future warning.
Ben: If this does happen again.
Ben: I won't hesitate to take action
Ben: I needed to think about the were-abouts of shuanna, and i did not have my tools with me.
Ben: Next time might be different.

Ben: In self defense, I will not hesitate to kill him.
Sherry: .... i
dont think this will happen again... but i wont blame you for defending
yourself if it does... though... i would never be able to forgive you
if you killed my son... either way i need to get him home.
Sherry looks down at the
ground as water materializes from the air and picks up Orik, making him
appear to be on a stretcher as he floats behind her in her departure.
Sherry from x.x.x.38 left the chat 6 hours ago
Orik from x.x.x.38 left the chat 6 hours ago

Ben: ...
Ben: To think I wanted to kill you, sherry..
Ben: Your skin.. is different then what i've felt.. im curious about you..
Ben: I think I have my buzz back..
Ben he smiled to himself, not bothering to look for his things, he left the building to retrieve shuanna
Ben as he came to Shuanna, he had daggers for her

Ben: What the shit was taht?
Shuanna: .... I knew you were going to kill her!
Ben: ....
Shuanna: I've seen that closet, Ben..
Ben he teleported up to the branch shuanna was sitting on, taking a hold of her jaw harshly and holding it tightly
Shuanna: ..!!

Ben: If you do anything like that again.. I'll stuff you in that closet just like the others..
Ben: I will kill you in the worst way I can.. I will keep you half alive and half dead for days!
Shuanna: ....
Ben: Do not fuck with me
Ben he'd let go of her
Shuanna: ...Ben I..
Ben: you know what?
Shuanna: ...?
Ben: Just to make sure..
Ben he'd take her arm harshly, yanking her up and he grabbed a hold of her, pressing her body against his
Shuanna: ...!? Ben?
Ben: ....This won't be enjoyable..
Ben he'd teleport them out
Ben from x.x.x.5 left the chat 6 hours ago
Shuanna from x.x.x.5 left the chat 6 hours ago

Part Four


Orik from x.x.x.38 joined the chat 38 minutes ago
Orik looks around, then finds a place to sit. His posture suggests he's depressed.
Alex from x.x.x.218 joined the chat 14 minutes ago

Alex curls up on an overstuffed chair and waves at Orik
Orik: ... hey,,,
Alex: Hello! -smiles-
Orik chuckles lightly, yet without humor.
Orik: why are you so happy today?

Alex: -shrugs- Why not?
Orik: ... i went berserk and nearly killed my mother last night... how about you?
Alex: Well... umm... at least you didn't?
Orik: ... true...
Alex: -smiles-
Alex: See, something to be happy about

Orik: ... still... i shouldn't have to be happy that i didn't kill her when i went berserk in the first place....
Alex: -tilts head- why did you go berserk, anyways?
Orik: ... i thought someone was trying to kill her... turns out... i was more wrong than i could have guessed...
Alex: Well make sure you have all the facts next time then.
Orik: .... yeah....
Alex: `That way it won't happen again -nods-

Orik: yeah...
Orik doesnt look to cheered up.
Alex: Hmmm... Do you need some hot chocolate or something? That always makes me feel better
Orik raises an eyebrow, then indicates his wolfish appearance.
Orik: ... chocolate makes me sick

Alex: -winces- Sorry, should of figured that
Alex: Do you have your own comfort food or something?
Orik: .... steak... raw
Orik: a lot of people i know think it's gross though
Alex: Well I'm sure there's some in the kitchen. You want me to look?
Orik: ... nah... i'm fine... just need to sit for a bit

Alex: Alright, if you're sure
Orik: .... running around usually helps too... but at the moment...
Orik stares at his hand for a moment.
Orik: i don't think that's such a good idea...
Alex: -head tilt- Why not?
Orik: ... too much tension and agression... might end up getting too excited and hurt someone

Alex: -nods- Makes sense
Orik: i have that tendency...
Orik chuckles lightly again.
Orik: this one time i
accidenly barked at my mother before i could control my sonic abilities
while we were playing.... she said her ears didnt stop ringing for
weeks... i was just glad she wasnt hurt when she was knocked back...
Alex: Yikes. And I thought I had it rough...
Orik: yeah... sonic abilities are hard to control sometimes

Alex: -nods- Compared to that I have a mere inconvenince
Orik raises an eyebrow.
Orik: what do you do?
Alex: I sometimes kinda transform into a more foxish form.
Orik: ... ah... thropism... an interesting talent... but it could be useful when used correctly
Alex: Too bad I have no control over it.
Orik: ... i never had
control over my sonic bursts... but once i mastered my other
abilities... i realized the sonic blasts were rooted in my ability to
manipulate the air
Alex: I don't know where mine come from. And it's not even triggered by emotions, it just sort of happens. It's frustrating!
Orik: ... mine arent triggered by emotions either... but more... an extended sense of self... it's hard to explain...
Alex: Well at least you know the reason. I still haven't figured mine out
Orik: ... have you tried meditation?
Alex: -looks around, noting that the place is still in disaray from the night before- Wow. Was this all you?
Orik: .... yeah... mom said i nova'd
Alex: It looks like there were about five major disastors
Orik: ... well... uh... like i said... i went berserk...
Alex: I guess this place doesn't have anyone to clean... -nudges a shard of glass from a broken bottle away with her foot-
Orik: ....
Alex: That's kind of odd, isn't it? there's never anyone here working, is there?
Orik sighs. He closes his eyes
and everything begins to move, propelled by the air. The trash is swept
into the corner and the fixable furnerature is moved back together by
the air.
Orik: ... nope... we just kind of... help ourselves...
Alex: It's bizzare

Orik shrugs.
Alex: yet the place is always well stocked... -puzzled-
Orik: ... um.... dont ask me...
Alex: it's a interesting mystery, that's for sure. perhaps one of the others might know something?
Orik shrugs.

Orik: maybe
Alex: I'll have to remember to ask them when they show up. Do you know when that might be?
Orik: no idea... jeremy usually shows up at least once a day
Alex: Hmm. No one said anything last they were here? That's inconveinent
Orik: yeah...
Alex: Guess we can only hang around and hope they do show up

Orik: yup... though i'm getting kind of bo-
Sherry from x.x.x.38 joined the chat 3 hours ago
Orik: oh hey mom
Sherry: Feeling any beter Orik?
Orik: a little
Alex: -waves at Sherry in greeting-

Sherry: good... good afternoon Alex
Alex: -smiles- and a good afternoon, it is
Sherry: indeed.
Sherry nods to alex politely and moves to sit down near Orik, but not close enough to upset him further.
Orik puts his head down on the table.

Alex: -looks at the other two and sighs-...Well this is kind of depressing.
Sherry smiles.
Sherry: oh dont mind him. I'm fine and he doesnt need to worry about me... i've already told him that countless times.
Alex: Still. Kinda darkens the mood, you know?
Alex: Unless it's just this place... Hmmm. -puzzles over something-
Sherry smiles deviously
at Alex and mouths "watch." She then turns toward Orik and reaches out
to him, brushing against the fur on the back of his neck.

Orik: NGH!
Orik twitches and sits bold upright.
Sherry laughs.
Orik glares at her, trying not to smile.
Alex giggles

Alex: much better now -smiles-
Sherry: are you done sulking yet Orik?
Orik: i'm not sulking.
Sherry giggles lightly.
Sherry: if you say so.
Alex: I'm pretty sure you were suling
Orik: no i wasnt.
Orik looks like he's starting to get frustrated, but is still fighting a smile.
Sherry cant help smile
Alex: You totally were. -nods-
Orik: no i wasnt!
Alex: Deny it all you want, but I know sulking when i see it
Orik: i wasnt sulking!
Sherry chastises him lightly.
Sherry: you're being childish Orik.
Orik: no i... oh forget it...
Orik crosses his arms and leans back in his seat.

Alex: Aw.. come on. Lighten up. I was just teasing
Sherry: you're still being childish...
Sherry giggles.
Orik sighs.
Alex: Man. Is this place always so down? Or is it just when I show up or something?

Orik: nope... only when you're here
Orik smiles
Sherry rolls her eyes at Orik.
Sherry: it was much more happening last night
Alex: So I do miss all the fun -pouts-

Sherry: i'm sure you just have had bad timing
Alex: It better be just as fun tonight...
Sherry: it might be.
Sherry giggles lightly.
Orik looks disgusted.

Orik: mom!
Sherry: what?... i'm a grown woman... i'm entitled to my fun.
Alex: -tilts head- what happened?
Orik: still...
Sherry: oh... I
was about to have some... physical relations *smiles*... and Orik
over-reacted... thinking he was trying to kill me or something silly
like that...
Orik mumbles.

Orik: it wasn't silly to me...
Alex: wow. sounds like quite the party
Sherry: it was...
Sherry smiles
Orik: ... at first...
Shuanna from x.x.x.5 joined the chat 3 hours ago

Alex: I miss everything awesome -pouts-
Shuanna she came in silently, surprised that a group of people where here. She wanted to be alone...
Shuanna: ..oh..
Shuanna she faced the door to
turn back away, but she knew it was inevitable, facing them, it could
be seen that she had her arm in a sling.
Alex: -eyes widen- What happened?

Shuanna: um..
Ben from x.x.x.5 joined the chat 3 hours ago
Ben he'd walk inside, holding his head high
Ben: evening.
Shuanna: ...

Alex: Ben! -smiles-
Ben had a different bag with him this time, since the fiasco last night probably ripped everything to ribbons
Ben: Alex, was it?
Ben: Nice to see you again, ma'm.
Ben he nodded formaly to alex, showing little emotion, it was hard to tell whether he was intentionally putting on tension or not.

Alex: -beams-
Ben: Shuanna, Lay down. I have you Ibeprophen today, you should get drowsy soon, I don't want to up and walking.
Shuanna silently she sat down on a couch, leaning on the arm chair mostly
Alex has moved closer to Ben
Ben setting his bag down beside the couch, he had a different coat on as well. but this one was much more bulky

Ben he sat down on the couch next to shuanna, taking his glasses off and rubbing the bridge of his nose
Ben: So how are things?
Alex: Boring. -pouts- There was apparently a big party last night and I missed it!
Sherry: Orik is a bit depressed...
Orik: hmph...
Ben smiled, closing his eyes for a second, and then opening them

Orik looks to shuanna and glares momentarily, then his expression softens and he sighs before looking away.
Ben: WELL.. I wouldn't say it was a party..
Sherry: i still had fun...
Sherry smiles.
Shuanna sighs hoplessly, it was evident in her eyes that she had been cry previously
Alex: What was it then?
Ben: heh..
Ben: I guess im glad to hear that..
Ben: WELL..!
Ben to took a big sigh
Sherry: well?

Ben: Im not sure what to call it..
Orik is watching ben out of the corner of his eye, still unsure what to think of him
Ben: If we had cameras in here then I guess we could sell it to a sitcom, I don't know..
Alex: Well what happened?
Sherry laughs.

Sherry: indeed we could
Orik mumbles.
Orik: i'll show you sitcom...
Sherry: i already explained that earlier alex
Ben laughed silently at orik, putting his hand over his mouth

Shuanna: ...
Shuanna she was beginning to dose off
Orik notices shuanna beginning to dose.
Orik: hey ben... you want me to take her upstairs so she can sleep?
Orik points at shuanna.

Alex: Sounded a bit like a party to me.
Ben his face becaome serious
Ben: No.
Ben: She's fine where she is.
Ben: Shuanan come here..
Orik: ... she looks tired...

Shuanna she shook her head lightly
Ben: come here.
Orik: ... ben
Ben: What?
Sherry remains silent as the tension fills the room.

Orik: why are you always ordering her around?
Ben: Because she has no idea what to do.
Alex watches quietly
Ben: Shuanna is the kind of girl who needs someone to hang onto.
Ben: She need someone to show her that she needs to be more assertive
Orik 's eyes narrow.

Ben: and once she makes a stand up to me, she will prove to me that she can be on her own.
Ben: You wouldn't say that to a Parent would you? Parents order around their kids
Orik: she has no idea
what to do because she's not allowed to think for herself... and she
doesnt need anyone to show her that... and that's not assertiveness...
its being agressive... and she is standing up to you... isnt she?
Sherry clears her throat.
Ben: not really.
Sherry: orik... calm down... he's not hurting her...

Orik growls and looks away...
Ben: By the way, it's because of your little stunt that her arm is broken.
Ben: So don't tell me what's best for her.
Ben: You dont' have much controll, so who are you to tell me that im being 'aggressive' towards her?
Orik stands and his body is tense as he glares at ben.

Ben smiles
Sherry is strern.
Ben: What?
Sherry: orik dont...
Ben: what'r you doing to do? hm?

Orik scoffs and heads for the door.
Orik leaves
Ben: ...
Orik from x.x.x.38 left the chat 2 hours ago
Sherry sighs.

Sherry: i'm sorry ben... he gets... emotional...
Ben takes shuanna's other shoulder, bringing her to rest beside him
Ben: Yeh...
Sherry: ... has she seen a doctor?
Shuanna sleeps soundlessly but discomfort is seen in her face because of her arm

Ben: Yes..
Ben: I guess im thankful that it wasn't her leg..
Sherry: good... i would offer to help... i used to be an RN... but if she's seen a doctor...
Ben: At least she's still able to move around and get excerise, rather then just sit all day waiting for this to heal..
Ben: Although she'll probably have to learn how to write with her other arm
Alex: ...I must of missed a lot last night. -is unsure of what is going on-

Ben: Im sorry alex..
Ben: Last night was a bit difficult..
Sherry: yes... it was...
Ben: Orik was drunk.. he had seen Me and his mother, sherry become intimate. We thought that Orik had gone but I guess not.
Ben: Orik ahd Shuanna with him and when he had seen us, he became angered so much that he went into a frenzy..
Ben: Pumpkin was caught
in the middle of this, and the flying air and deris probably caused her
arm to break. Im not sure what did but..

Ben: Perhaps I was too rough with her while trying to escape..
Ben: Im thinking about putting shuanna through a bit of daily training to give her body more strength...
Ben: That way she'll be more prepaired for this..
Alex: Wow. Guess it really wasn't a party then...
Sherry: that would be a good idea ben... though you should wait for her to heal first...
Ben: Yes of course..

Ben: At least, you weren't there to get caught up into it.. It was quite the ride..
Sherry: and i
appologize about Orik... he gets upset when he loses it like that... i
have explained the situation to him... but i dont think he likes it
anymore than he did last night...
Ben: hhmm...
Ben: Well..
Sherry: ... if you remember ben... i knocked him out while he was upset...
Sherry doesnt look happy about it.

Ben: He probably doesn't want change..
Sherry: no... i dont believe he does...
Ben: He's threatened by me, obviously and now he wants to prove the worst of me, Like the instance with Shuanna
Ben: I can't help but think of him as a struggling 14 year old boy... no offense..
Sherry smiles.
Sherry: Orik has always had the heart of a child...
Alex examines the supply beind the bar
Ben he laughed silently
Ben: would've been usefull information earlier..
Ben: Sherry..
Sherry: yes ben?
Ben: Im obligated to tell you that I have a weapon on my person..
Ben: I hope you understand..
Alex: Yeah, just as I thought. Everything is completely restocked. Odd
Ben: Don't worry... It's not a gun.
Sherry: ... it's
fine... i also feel it necessary to tell you that i can use any
moisture in my general vecinity for any purpose... including weaponry.
Sherry: ... though i try not to...
Sherry notices alex.
Sherry: um... what are you doing alex?
Alex: I'm safe assuming that people have been drinking here, right?
Sherry: ... um... not from what i've seen today... but Orik and his friends were last night...
Sherry: and ben too i believe...
Ben: Not excessively.. but yeh, a little bit

Sherry: i didn't have anything... i usually just drink water...
Ben: I can't remember the last time I was seriously drunk..
Ben: I think I had gotten alcohol poisoning and that just.. pretty much sold me..
Sherry: i've never been.
Alex: And the others, did they drink a lot?
Ben: Yeh

Sherry: Orik and Valerie did... and so did brock i believe
Ben: particularly Valeria and her knight in shining armor, Brock..
Sherry: Valeria?... oh... and here i assumed it was Valerie...
Sherry giggles lightly.
Alex: And yet every
bottle is back here, and they're all full. So either there is someone
working here, or it's all replaced some other way.
Sherry: .... dont ask me

Alex: It's rather odd
Alex: If it's the first option, then why is there no one else working? If it's the second, then what is the other way?
Sherry: it is... but Orik has never had a problem with it...
Ben: hmm,,
Ben: well a logical explination is that someone is employed here but of course in the wonderful world of mystlings.. I don't know..
Sherry: .... maybe the bartender is invisible?

Sherry: ... and.... mute?
Ben laughs
Ben: that would work.
Alex: Hmmm. Maybe.
Alex is not quite satisfied

Sherry seems either satisfied or disconcerned.
Sherry: ben, would you like to finish where we left off... i dont think Orik is coming back any time soon.
Ben: heeh heh is that a trick?
Sherry stands up straight.
Sherry: no... if you really want me to i can use my abilities to make sure no one outside our general vicinity can see us.

Ben: hmm..
Ben paused for a momment, shrugging
Ben: Alright.
Ben: Alex you wouldn't mind watching Shuanna for me? unless you have some qualm about this..
Sherry: good... i'll see you upstairs then.
Sherry turns and walks up the stairs.

Alex: ...I guess not. Anything special I gotta do?
Ben: Just make sure she dosn't fall over on her arm or anything..
Ben: She usually doesn't move around too much while sleeping..
Ben: If she wakes up ask her for some water or if she is hungry..
Alex: Alright. -sits down on the couch-
Ben he'd glance upstairs curiously

Ben: Persistant arn't we..?
Sherry has already
vanished down the hall and is waiting inside the room with the door
open, the doorway and windows covered in tansluscent films of water.
Ben he'd get up and move Shuanna as carefully as he could but there isn't a way to move her with out pain
Shuanna: ...!! ...augh!
Ben: sorry, sorry! .. hold on.. i'll be back

Ben he lightly floated in the air, before his body flashed in and out, before disappearing to sherry
Shuanna: ...
Shuanna she watched as Ben disappeared, looking to Alex groggyily
Alex: Um. Hi?
Sherry jumps as ben appears in the room.

Alex: You feeling alright? Hungry, thirsty?
Sherry touches a hand to her chest and laughs lightly.
Sherry: you scared me.
Orik from x.x.x.38 joined the chat 2 hours ago
Orik walks in, literally making
no noise and surrounding both alex and shuanna in a film of vacume so
that even if they do make any noise they wont be heard by anyone but
themselves.

Orik walks up to the bar and
silently pulls out a bottle of whisky and drinks directly from the
bottle before sitting down, glancing at shuanna and Alex.
Shuanna: .................
Shuanna: I.. I gotta leave!
Alex: But you're hurt!
Alex: I'm not sure if you should...
Orik: ... they can't hear us... and where would you go?...

Orik: ... alex is right... you should rest...
Shuanna is reluctant to tell orik
Shuanna: what to you mean.. ? ..
Ben: Sorry.. hah.. there really is no way to warn people before I appear..
Sherry: i see that... now...
Sherry moves closer to ben.
Sherry: where were we?
Orik: i manipulate air
shuanna... they cant hear us because sound cant travel when there's not
air for it to travel through... so i've surrounded us in vacume...
Orik looks at alex.
Orik: all three of us
Alex: ...Awesome! How thin is it? Could we walk out if we wanted to with no ill effects?
Shuanna: ..........

Shuanna: You weren't.. listening in were you?
Orik: you could... but i
could just as easily move it again... and all i know is what's been
happening here today... and if mom wants to sleep with him, then she
can... i have no right to stop her...
Orik takes a large swig from his drink.
Ben: uhhm.. well we were at the part where you had your shirt off..
Sherry smiles and removes her shirt.

Alex: -is geeking out over the vacuum bit still- I wish I could do cool stuff like that
Sherry: like this?
Orik: ... in time you might learn to control your change...
Orik: and shuanna... what are you talking about as far as listening in goes?
Alex: Still isn't that cool though.
Orik: i never thought until recently that my body being like this was cool... but now... i wouldnt have it any other way

Shuanna: ...nothing.. never mind..
Alex: Wonder when the rest will show up. I don't think I've met 'em all yet...
Ben: heheh heh.. Indeed..
Ben he'd take off his coat again, although it was noticibly heavier then the previous one as it fell to the ground with a thud
Sherry giggles at the weight of his coat and moves forward to kiss him.

Orik: you'll meet them eventually...
Orik: something wrong shuanna?
Shuanna: no...
Alex: Can't be any orse then you guys. -smiles at the joke-
Orik chuckles.
Orik: nope

Orik takes a drink
Shuanna rolls off the couch
Shuanna: ...Leaving..
Ben: Mmm..
Orik: ... where are you going shuanna?

Ben he'd kiss into her again, just like before and taking sherry off her feet and onto the bed
Shuanna: no where..
Orik: ...
Orik looks concerned.
Orik: what's going on shuanna?

Sherry lays there, allowing him to do what he would.
Alex: Um, I really don't think that's a good idea
Shuanna stood up wearyly, moving to get out of this.. soundless barrier
Alex: -chews her lip- No really. You should probably rest! -is unsure what to do-
Orik: shuanna... please... tell me why you want to go?

Ben he moved to lay ontop of her, loosening his belt and taking something from his pants pocket
Shuanna: no.. your mad at me already
Orik: ... no... and even
if i was... thats no reason for me to avoid you are stop talking to
you... in fact... it's more reason to talk... to come to an
understanding...
Alex: -nods- Talking always help
Sherry smiles up at ben, but glances down at what he pulled out of his pocket.

Ben: Your skin feels sos urreal.. I wonder..
Sherry giggles.
Sherry: that's... not really my skin...
Ben: oh?
Shuanna: Don't care!
Sherry: no... it's a protective film that looks like it...

Orik stands and moves to cut shuanna off.
Alex frowns, worried
Shuanna: Ah!!
Orik: please shuanna... talk to me... what's wrong?
Shuanna she tries to push Orik, obviously some of Ben's influence

Orik lets her, but maintains his balance.
Orik: shuanna... i'm sorry... for whatever you're mad about... can we talk about this?
Ben: So I wonder...
Ben smiled sinisterly, taking a large can of salt, and jamming it into her face, pouring it into her mouth
Ben: What would happen?

Sherry: mmf!!
Ben he' held her throat down with his hand, squeezing tightly
Shuanna: NO! WE CAN'T!!
Shuanna her voice resonated
Ben: You know.. You almost got out of this..

Sherry 's eyes widen as
she struggles to push him off her, her physical strength weakening as
he chokes her. Suddenly he's hit in the side of the head by a blast of
water and realizes that it's seeping into his ear.
Orik stands aside.
Orik: ... i'm sorry shuanna...
Ben he'd shake his head,
teleporting back to Sherry, dropping the can he fastened both hands
onto her neck this time, putting all his weight on her
Shuanna her hands and legs where shaking as if she had parkensons disease

Sherry forces the water
into his ear and into his nervous system as she attempts to force such
pain upon him that he would have no choise but to let go.
Orik obviously doesnt know what to say.
Orik: .... i'm sorry...
Alex is worried, but has no clue what to do
Ben grits his teeth, ear cannals are not connected to the brain, he telelported in and out to distrupt the flow of the water

Shuanna: Im..!! just not comfortable here..!
Sherry when he teleported
out, she rolled off the bed as quickly as she could and moved to run
out the door, bringing water up around her as she gasped for air,
grabbing at her neck. As the water connected with her "skin" the film
disolved and showed the almost turquios looking skin beneath, but the
water was practically solid as it surrounded her.
Orik is pleading.
Orik: why not?
Ben he'd appear in front of her, pushing her back and whipping out a knife

Ben: You know I did like you..
Ben: But you just had to ruin the ride..
Ben: I was looking for a more challenging, elegant woman..
Ben: Someone who had a bit of pride..
Sherry holds a serious
expression as she stands up straight and moves her hand forward, water
rushing from the window behind her to pass her and form into spikes as
they speed toward him as fast as bullets.
Ben he'd teleport in and out, in a flash he was right in her face

Ben: Nope.
Ben he'd jab her with the knife
Shuanna: Orik.. You didn't break my arm.. It wasn't you..

Ben from x.x.x.5 left this message 82 minutes ago:

Sherry grimaces as the
tip of the knife hits the water, but there is no cutting, and no blood.
The water surrounding her has somehow hardened to the consistency of
steel and the rest of the room begins to fill with the liquid as well.

Orik: wait... wha-?
Orik 's eyes widen at the sudden realization that it was ben that did it.
Orik: ... no...
Orik allows the vacume to fill itself in with a loud poping noise as the air forces itself back into place.
Shuanna: ....!!

Ben from x.x.x.5 left this message 74 minutes ago:

Ben pushed sherry back onto the bed, landing on the spilt salt, the impact causing the salt to fling upwards and fall everywhere
Sherry: ... so... Orik... was right.... about.... you...
Ben: Half..
Ben: At first I was curious about you, And I had the buzz to kill you..
Orik moves so quickly it seems
unreal, the same sound that resonated through the air when he
reliquished the vacume to the air following him in his wake as he moved
up the stairs.
Orik: MOM!
Sherry struggles beneath ben and arches her back, moving forward to headbutt him as hard as she can.
Ben braced his head for the
impact, wincing, he held on as much as he could, his right hand
grasping onto her shoulders again moved to her neck, while his other
held the knife, he dabbed it into some salt beside them to try again
Shuanna: ...!! .. Alex..! we need to leave!
Sherry: ... you didn't know?.... salt makes me.... stronger!
Alex: Leave? Where? What's going on?
Sherry water swirls
around the room as the water surrounding her skin hardens even further
and she manipulates it, as well as her body, to strike forward,
slamming him across her face with her palm.
Shuanna: just come on! follow me!
Shuanna she turned around, running for the door
Alex follows after her
Orik appears in the doorway
with a whirlwind, sees the scene and rushes forward with a roar, the
air around them focusing into wind that swirls around Orik.
Ben he had a sickening grin on
the whole time, he was clearly enjoying every minute, even though he
was out numbered. His killing buzz was greatly satisfied,over flowing.
Ben he'd jump up off of sherry,
disappearing in an' instant, outside of the building, and his manical
laugh was what was left in his wake
Shuanna running outside, she is stopped by Ben, who appeared in front of her.

Part Five



Shuanna: !!! ...
Alex skids to a stop
Alex: Ben! Um.. -tries to think of an excuse-
Ben he was breathing heavily, like he had ran a marathon, he was drenched, but overall, in the best mood he has ever been in years.
Orik continues to rush forward
and bursts through the window. Seemingly planting his landing not only
partially upside down, but on the air itself, he vaults toward ben with
a blood-curdling howl as the air converges on his target, forming into
blades in the process.

Ben teleported out of the water, leaving him completely dry before taking hold of Alex and Shuanna, faceing Orik
Shuanna: ... !!! Ben!
Alex winces
Orik manipulates the air to
move around Shuanna and Alex, still advancing on Ben with the cutting
power of diamond. Orik moves to the side in another display of creating
vacume and moving into it. Moving at incredible speeds, he moves in
towards ben's sides as the air impacts him.
Sherry lies on the bed and pants, forming her hands around her face as she cries silently.

Ben he was blasted back, and he
let Orik hit him, sliding on the ground with him, he took a gun from
his pants and putting it right up against Oriks abdomen
Ben: Dodge this..
Ben he fired the gun
Sherry: (OOC g2g so the family can eat)
Ben: (ooc: okay bro!)

Alex: ((should we have an ooc chat?))
Ben: (yeh that'd be nice)
Alex: ((ill get on that then))
Ben: (GOD! such a way to leave it! Haaha!! im excited as hell!)
Alex: ((http://www.chatzy.com/127530737590))
Orik 's eyes widen as the gun
touches his stomach, but he reaches out and grabs ben's face as the
weapon discharges and backfires, the barrel full of hyperdense air so
hard that the bullet never left the barrel.

Orik then attempted to thrust Ben into the pavement by the head with all his might.
Sherry: (OOC back)
Ben: (wewt!)
Ben such a thing in the gun made
it expload into peices of shrapnel, Ben disappearing before he could
touch the pavement, and landed on Oriks back, pushing him into the
ground
Shuanna she fled back to the place, running up the stairs to see the damage to Sherry

Alex watches the fight with alarm, having no way to stop it
Shuanna: Sherry!! ..
Shuanna she immediately went to her side, noticing the salt.
Shuanna: Ooh god..
Orik Orik cushioned his fall
with the air, making sure that there was no impact to be seen. Without
even attempting to rise, he manipulated the air around Ben to move
forward and solidify into hyperdense blades that converge on ben,
heading toward his abdomen, neck, and knees.

Sherry is still crying,
but is unhurt by the salt. when Shuanna appears, she begins to cry even
harder as she sits up and wraps her arms around Shuanna, her amphibious
skin feeling somewhat wet.
Shuanna: Oooh!!..!! Sherry!
Shuanna she wraped her arm around her, as tightly as she could, sobbing herself
Sherry: ... he tried to kill me.... i... i'm sorry... i doubted you...
Shuanna: I-! .... I lost
doubt myself.. I thought that.. since he didn't do anything yesterday
.. I thought that.. maybe he..wouldn't! .. and when Orik appeared I got
scared..! ..

Alex: -quietly- Do we gotta do this?
Sherry: (OOC: sigh... brb again)
Ben he'd bound off of Orik, shooting up high into the air, looking down at Orik
Ben: you know, At first I wasn't going to kill your mother..
Ben he floated in the air for a bit

Ben: But really it was You what set me off! If you haddn'ta come after me like that, I would've just had sex with her! Hahahaa..!!
Orik leaps to his feet and
turns to face ben, then feels out the air in his lungs. Orik's eyes
narrow as he forces the air out of ben's lungs, and attempts to make
sure no more can get in.
Ben he'd teleport out of sight,
and to the bar. gasping for air he clutched his bag that he brought in,
pulling out a flame thrower he disappeared up onto the roof and aimed
it at Orik
Ben: we all know that fire burns oxygen
Ben: I was going to use this on mom, but I'd figure that it would be over kill don't you think?

Orik 's eyes narrow.
Orik: touch her... and i'll kill you...
Ben: I already did.
Ben: Oh, did I mention this is all your doing?
Ben: What a son.. bravo
Orik manipulates the air around the flamethrower so that there can be no spark, as he has surrounded the weapon with vacume.

Ben he'd teleport out fireing the fun and a burst of fire blazed from the nozel
Ben: You know, What I like about you 'civilized people' is that deep down.. you'll eat eachother up..
Orik solidifies the air around the flame and moves it inward, causing the fire to go out in what seems like implosion.
Orik then attempts the same with ben, hoping the mad-man to be crushed.
Ben: eh..
Alex: -louldly- Can't you guys please stop?!

Orik: ... i'm willing to take on the sins of a killer... to protect my mother
Ben teleports out, appearing close to Orik
Ben: But that's where it gets crazy..
Ben: Is it justice?
Ben: Just because you killed a serial killer, your a hero?
Ben: Yet you killed just like the killer did?

Orik: ... it's murder... justice or no... and i'm no hero... i'm a vigilantie... like i said... i'm willing to take on the sins.
Ben: Then you are no more important, no better then I am.
Orik turns to face Ben again,
once again focusing on the air within the man's lungs. This time he
solidifies only a small portion into a spike and attempts to thrust it
into the side of the man's lung, heading toward his heart.
Orik: i am better than you... i have a conscience...
Ben he'd teleport behind Orik

Ben: You know what makes it hilarious
Ben: I have a sense of right and wrong..
Ben: Yet I choose to kill
Ben: I don't kill just mystlings..
Ben: I kill everyone.. Humans are too easy
Orik: .... i only kill people who don't know remorse...

Ben: oh I have remorse..
Orik swirls the air around him, throwing ben backward.
Ben he is flown backwards but regains controll and teleports onto the ground, looking up at Orik
Ben: So would you say that someone who doesn't cry? or has no feelings? you kill them?
Ben: What if they've been a war vetren? they've seen it all..
Orik continues to swirl the air around him, the cement cutting appart as he steps forward toward ben.

Ben: and the sight of a beaten up woman doesn't phase them, because they've been painted with their friends brains?
Ben stands his ground, still having an adrenaline rushed smile
Orik: killers... men
like us... only deserve to live if they wish to redeem themselves for
the lives that they've taken... and i dont know what i want to do for
redemption... but i'm going to try... and i'll meet you in hell...
Orik continues his slow advance.
Ben: Oh so now im like you? But I thought you were 'better' then me?

Ben: Mr. Orik you have to listen to what you are saying..
Alex has suddenly found herself to be a cute, mostly foxlike, werefox
Orik: we have things in
common... but we're also vastly different.... i have something to
protect... shuanna is just a possession to you from what i've seen.
Ben: From what you've seen..
Ben: If I didn't care about shuanna, why would I save her from you?
Orik: ... prove to me
you actually care for her... and that you feel sorry for the lives
you've taken... and i'll stop coming after you...

Alex: o.o
Ben: and if you cared about any one anyway? Why would you go for shuanna in the first place?
Orik: ... i had no control over myself... i would like to think that shuanna is my friend...
Ben: It's said that I have the right in persuit of happyness..
Ben: Killing people makes me happy..
Ben: Whoa re you to deny my right to kill if I can't live with out it?
Ben: Mind you, the founding fathers wrote this
Orik: you have the right to the persuit of happiness... yes... inside the law
Alex runs around in circles, frustrated about her inability to say anything in this form
Ben: there's nothing in there that says that
Ben: they were pretty vague..
Orik: ... i wont let you hurt my mother...

Ben laughed
Ben: Yeh.. Your mom is a tricky one.
Ben: Although.. really..
Ben: I do love doing psycholigical damage..
Ben: and that's the ultimate power..
Ben: human or mystling..

Orik: ...
Ben: I've planted some good seeds in Shuanna already..
Orik 's eyes narrow once again, but he says nothing. His eyes are extremely close to red, but he still has control.
Ben: and with a little bit of tender love and care.. they will fester
Ben: and eventually, you will have another me..
Orik: Shuanna isn't like you... she never will be...

Ben: we'll see about that..
Ben: Shuanna isn't my ace in the hole..
Orik: oh?... what is?... wolf's bane?... silver?... you cant beat me ben...
Ben: OH Im not talking about you either! hahaa
Ben: Im not aiming to kill you..
Ben: your just too much fun..

Ben: Im talking about .. someone New..
Orik: ...
Orik growls.
Ben: Aah..
Ben stretches casually

Ben: I think I might've threw my back out..
Alex Her head is going back an forth between the two as they converse
Ben in a series of teleportations, he made his way back to the bar.
Ben walking up stairs, intently noisy
Shuanna: ...! ..O-.. Orik?

Ben teleports inside the room, looking to shuanna
Alex attempts to follow Ben, curious
Shuanna: ..!!
Shuanna: B-b.. ben..
Ben: Come on...

Ben: Your coming with me
Shuanna: ...! but!..sherry!
Ben: ...
Ben he grabbed shuanna by the arm, prying her from sherry
Ben: Sorry, Sherry. Turns out your not the girl for me
Ben he teleported out, taking shuanna with him

Ben from x.x.x.5 left the chat 26 hours ago
Alex curls up on a chair, still i her wereform
Brock from x.x.x.188 joined the chat 25 hours ago
Ben from x.x.x.5 joined the chat 25 hours ago
Brock glances at Ben

Brock: wild night?
Ben smiles
Ben: indeed.
Val: Why does this place get wrecked so often?
Ben he had no bag with him, and no coat. Just his usual suit.

Ben: Because we have people who can't handel things I guess.
Alex looks up at the sound of voices, still in wereform
Brock slides down to Val and puts his arm around her
Brock: didn't see you here
Ben: So how are you two?

Val smiles at the contact
Ben he smiled warmly at the couply
Val: ((OOC chat: http://www.chatzy.com/127530737590))
Brock: (it's not working)
Alex: (( http://www.chatzy.com/127530737590 ))

Ben: (take the parenthisis out of it.. XD)
Val: A little exhausted, I suppose. -grins-
Ben: Hahaa! Oooh I see! haha
Brock: Is that my fault?
Val: -winks- Not that I'm complaining
Ben he was smiles all around, stretching again

Ben: I had a bit of fun myself..
Ben: best day of my life, really..
Brock: I think last night was probably mine
Ben: haaha? yeh? good for you
Val: You weren't too bad yourself
Ben: although Shuanna can't make it, she's feeling a little under the weather.

Alex growls slightly at this
Brock doesn't recognize the werewolf
Ben shakes his head
Ben: I could have a big feast right now..
Val eyes the werefox curiously, but doesnt say anything

Ben: oh!, so nice of you to join us..
Ben he looked at the werefox
Alex is unable to speak in her current form and is rather annoyed about this
Val snuggles into Brock a bit
Sherry walks downstairs
seemingly in a trance. She has her shirt back on, but the human "skin"
has not yet re-formed. Without a word, and with the remnants of tears
on her face, she moves to the bar and sits down.

Brock snuggles back and tightens his arm around her
Ben he sat on the couch casually before Sherry came down
Sherry still looks like she's in a trance and doesn't even look like she's noticed anyone.
Alex walks over to Sherry, and watches her, concerned
Sherry doesnt seem to notice alex.
Brock raises his head from leaning over on Val's to look at Sherry.
Brock: You okay Sherry?
Alex nudges Sherry with her nose
Sherry jumps when alex nudges her.
Sherry: oh?.... hey alex...
Sherry sounds distant and slightly upset.
Alex wimpers in concern
Sherry: ... alex... did you see where shuanna went?
Ben just stares at sherry as she moved
Alex shakes her head
Sherry: oh... i wonder where she went...
Sherry: me turns away and stares off into the distance again.
Sherry: (XD supposed to be an emote)
Ben: She's fine
Ben he raised his voice a little
Sherry: uh!

Ben: ...
Sherry looks frieghtened by ben's voice.
Ben: Yes..?
Sherry: ... I uh... um... should get going...
Ben he smiled

Ben: great sex by the way, sherry..
Sherry gulps and can't
make eye contact. Sge feeks ger abdomen where he'd tried to stab her
earlier. There is a bruise underneath her shirt.
Alex glares at ben, then suddenly turns back to her mostly human form, minus her clothes
Alex: umm... -blushes and dives behind the bar for cover-
Ben: Mmm...

Sherry: uh... alex... you should come home too...
Ben reaches into his pants pocket, taking out a candy
Sherry is getting more flustered by the moment.
Alex: -embarresed- no, i'm fine behind here
Ben: Have fun.. Be safe

Sherry nearly jumps when he reaches into his pocket and moves her hand up to her throat.
Sherry: ... uh...
Ben: .........
Sherry gulps.
Sherry: ... i'll try...

Ben: I guess we'll have do it again some time..
Sherry: NO!
Ben he'd stare into her eyes menicingly
Sherry: ... um... i mean... no thank you... once is enough for a great while for me...
Ben: Aaww.. was I too rough with you?
Ben he'd take the candy again and opened the wrapping, nibbling on it

Val watches all this with concern, but sees no reason to intervine yet
Sherry: ... i... just dont... LEAVE ME A LONE!
Sherry moves to leave in a panic.
Ben: Mmmmhm..
Ben takes a bite ouf of the candy

Brock stares at ben curiously, his sense of being always helpful kicking in
Sherry from x.x.x.38 joined the chat 24 hours ago
Ben looks at brock
Ben: Can i help you?
Brock: Did you hurt her?

Sherry is at the edge of the room.
Sherry lifts up her shirt enough to show the bruise.
Ben he smiled
Sherry: he... tried to... stab me...
Ben he laughs

Brock stands from his seat, a disgusted look spreading across his face, his eyes shining brightly, but not mutating yet.
Brock: Why?!
Ben: Why do you honestly think?
Brock: Because you are just a bad person...
Ben: Uh
Val gets to her feet

Ben: Bad person is the understatement of the century
Sherry: ... he tr... tried to kill me...
Sherry: ... and orik...
Sherry is shaking heavily.
Ben he'd toss the candy wrapper away on the floor

Ben: I don't know If I can say that im sorry..
Ben: But your son just happened to push that little red button..
Val: Well that's just not right. -reaches for her gun, just in case-
Brock: That can be forced out...
Ben: If you want to force out that button, spill my brains.
Brock: I mean the apology you filth

Brock the rest of his skin turns metallic
Ben: Im not some psycho who doesn't have control..
Ben: Im a psycho who knows it's wrong..
Ben: Yet I do it anyway..
Alex remains behind the bar hiding now from the possible fight

Ben: And I go for everyone..
Brock: Yeah, well I'm the good guy
Ben: Well whoop-de-do..
Brock: That doesn't have a problem with kicking your ass
Ben he'd stand
Ben: I don't need to become the silver surfer to beat you..

Sherry: brock... no...
Ben: Hell I don't neven need to fight you
Val draws her weapon, ready to back up brock
Ben: All I can do is just talk..
Ben: So lets see what happens..
Ben: Go ahead.
Ben he faced the two
Ben: come get me
Brock cracks his neck and charges forward swinging at Ben's jaw
Orik appears in a gust of wind and moves to grab ben by the hands to inhibit his movement.
Ben he teleports in and out, still in the same place but Brock's arm had already passed
Brock he yelled loudly...sounding more like a roar
Brock: what are you going to do? him me?!
Brock: (hit*)
Sherry screams.
Ben again his sinister, sickening grin came forth, his eyes wideneing, his teeth bearing at them
Ben he laughed uncontrollably, he was like a kid at a candy shop, drunk with sugar
Orik jerks ben's wrists up in an attempt to dislocate the shoulders.
Ben: Oohh!! HAahahahaaa!!!
Ben he lets Orik do so, he does nothing at all
Ben: Look at you go! Haahahaaa!!
Val just watches, waiting for her chance to fire her weapon
Brock reaches forward to grab him by the suit and lift him up in the air
Orik grabs ben by the back of the neck and thrusts him to the floor, trying to thrust his face intot the floorboards to shut him up.
Ben he'd disappear, appearing before them, near sherry. But he doesn't care, he's not interested in her at all
Ben he'f flail his arm about, grunting and moving it back into place

Orik growls and shoots forward in a vilent burst of wind and throws his fist forward toward ben's chest at high velocity.
Val aims for his knee and fires quickly, hoping to catch him off gaurd
Ben he teleported again, this time, on the roof.
Ben: aaughh..
Ben he streched his back, backwards,

Val: Damn. Thought
Val: I had him
Brock: Stop running coward!
Ben: Yeah.. IM pretty
sure im the coward when i've already killed about 20 people in this
city, and left them to hang on my wall in my closet.
Orik leaps out the window and
uses the wind to propel himself upward. Spotting ben on the roof, he
propelled himself forward and huricane force winds surrounding his hand
as he thrusthis hand forward toward ben's face.
Brock: If you weren't a coward, you'd stand and fight!

Ben he'd bound upwrads, looking down at orik
Ben: Not really.. !
Ben: Not if you have a strategy!
Brock: You can't beat me if you can't hurt me!
Val: I'm not sure I like this... -is supicous of how things are going-
Ben: OH i've had this talk with Orik here.. haha

Ben: I can hurt you with out any powers..
Orik used the wind to alter his
course and once again moved toward ben, riding on the air itself. He
thrust his arm forward once again, this time releasing a nova of
wind-blades in every direction just in case he teleported to a
different locations.
Ben he'd teleport close to Orik, knowing that the blades would be moving away from him.
Ben: Mr. Orik? What'd I do to mommy?
Brock: So be it!

Ben he'd teleport infront of Orik
Brock closes his eyes and
focused hard. Pulses of myst erupted from him, tremors spreading
through the room, getting steadily stronger
Ben: I guess it's too late to say, 'sorry for wanting to do your mom..'
Brock speaks softly to Val
Brock: You should be running.

Val stumbles slightly at the shaking
Orik whirls around with a kick aimed at ben's abdomen, novaing again at the same time.
Val: And leave you with this psycho? Fuck no!
Brock: I've already started the quakes! I'd rather this building not collapse on you.
Val: -shakes her head no- I'm not leaving until this is done

Ben he'd teleport lower to the ground, waiting for the shards to speparate as they traveled, before heading back up again
Ben: i can do this all day
Ben: So borack-o obama! you down there?!
Brock: ::grits his
teeth:: Fine, at least get under me so nothing falls on you. ::the
quakes were getting stronger, the walls had began shaking and small
cracks were spiderwebbing along the ceiling::
Val nods and does so, holstering her gun in the process

Sherry screams in terror. Some of the liquid from the broken bottles from the shelves moves above her, acting as a shield.
Ben: ...??
Ben teleports inside the building, grabbing sherry and teleporting out
Orik gets frustrated and
removes all air from the surrounding area, except for what is in his
lungs and a small supply for him to breathe.
Brock: I'm here and waiting ben!

Ben lets sherry go outside, before looking to Brock
Ben: now that that's taken care of
Orik lets the air the atmosphere.
Orik: ..... you... saved my mother?
Ben hold his mouth

Ben never the less, he was smiling
Ben even though the air was gone, he mouthed the words ' fucked up isn't it?'
Orik let the atmosphere return.
Ben breathes
Ben looks at his watch

Shuanna from x.x.x.5 joined the chat 23 hours ago
Shuanna: Ben!!
Shuanna she came running from a distance, her stride wobbily and shaky
Ben he smiled as if expectant
Orik: shuanna!

Brock: GET IN HERE AND FIGHT ME DAMMIT!
Ben: Why don't you come out here?
Orik moves to shuanna speedily, ignoring ben for the time being.
Ben he called
Ben: you said you were going to 'kick my ass' lets see the bark behind your bite!

Shuanna: Orik!..
Brock yelled in frustration and
a very large tremor sent a crack rushing through the floor, the
building beginning to collapse all around them
Shuanna she falls down on the ground early, knowing that Orik would help her soon
Orik: ... are you alright?
Orik helps her up.

Orik: how's your arm?
Shuanna: it's alright.. it.. still hurts
Orik: ... common... i'm gonna get you out of here before he notices and tries to hurt you more...
Shuanna: I-! it's not like that!! really!
Orik moves to pick up shuanna bridal style, being careful about her arm.
Sherry ran away as soon as she'd been teleported outside.
Orik: ... then what's it like?
Shuanna: He didn't mean to..
Ben he teleported closer to brock, taking hold of some of the large debrii and teleporting it and himself at brock
Orik: he didn't mean to
hurt you?... well.. he meant to hurt my mother, and he wants to
re-create himself in you... i dont want that to happen.
Shuanna: w-what? no!
Shuanna: It's not his fault! .. his father was like this! It was born into his mind!

Orik: he said so himself... and he's just manipulating you!
Shuanna: He has a good side to him! i've seen it!
Brock stands firm, letting it hit him. it wouldn't hurt
Shuanna: why would he sling and cast my arm?
Ben he jumped back off of brock, standing before him

Orik: ... good side or not... he kills people for fun!
Shuanna: But how do you know that's his father talking?
Shuanna: He's very very ill!
Shuanna: Your making it worse! Don't fight him!
Brock: Hit me all you want. Your power will only help you run from me.
Orik: ....are you sure?

Shuanna: be good to him! it'll set him off!
Ben: That's very true.
Orik: .... right.... alright... but make me a promise.... you wont turn into him.
Ben: But did I mention me and your chicky-poo held hands a few days ago?
Shuanna: ...? .. I don't understand..
Brock he reached out and grabbed him by the throat

Ben: I don't know about her, But I bumped into her a few times, i'll tell ya that
Orik: promise me you wont try to kill people... for any reason... dont turn into him...
Orik grimaced.
Orik: ... or me...
Ben he let brock take hold of him

Shuanna: ...what do you mean.. you?
Orik: ... i dont enjoy it like he does... and i only go after evil people... but...
Brock squeezed tighter around Ben's neck
Orik grimaces once again...
Brock: Don't make me do this

Ben he still managed to talk
Ben: Would.. it m- .. make you feel better..?
Shuanna: ...
Brock lifts him into the air off his feet
Orik: ... dont turn into us.... promise me that shuanna...

Brock: I don't want to have to kill you Ben!
Shuanna from x.x.x.5 joined the chat 23 hours ago
Ben from x.x.x.5 joined the chat 23 hours ago
Ben: Because.... it.. would stain your.. reputation?!
Ben: TO.. have that on you.. your conciounce?!

Ben: What...?
Ben: ...do you.. think you can save .. me?
Ben: Please...
Brock: Because I'm not a killer like you! ::turns, throwing him as hard as he can towards a wall::
Orik: ..... i'll be back
Ben he lands with a crash, peices of the wall falling down

Shuanna: ...oh Orik..! Don't hurt him anymore!
Orik rushes into the building only to see ben flying into the wall. He hurries to ben's side and moves to help him up.
Shuanna: He's just confused..!
Orik: ... hey... you hurt?
Ben rolls his eyes waiting for brock to say somthing

Brock moves through the rubble to Ben, gripping him again.
Brock: give up!
Orik: ... brock...
Orik sighs.
Orik: let it go brock...

Ben he smiled as brock lifted him through the rubble
Ben: I think your going to have to kill me before Im happy
Orik: ... then you're going to have to be miserable ben... because we're not killing you...
Brock ignores Orik and picks ben back up into the air
Orik: BROCK STOP!

Ben he laughed, disappearing
Brock brings their faces close together
Brock: (dammit...)
Ben: (oh whoopse, sorry)
Ben: (repost?)

Brock: (jes)
Brock: Why do you want to die so badly?
Ben he'd let himself fall, landing and making no attempt to move away.
Ben: just to make a point..
Ben: the point that you, are just a peice of shit..
Brock: ::lowered his
hands and stared down at him:: It's because of mystlings like you that
we have to be feared and live in a place like Alpha Site.

Ben: Im not a mystling..
Orik: .... brock... calm down... let it go... please...
Ben: Im nothing like you..
Brock: You are exactly like me...
Orik sighs.
Brock: (he is calm, sort of lol)

Ben: Im not an' idiot if that's what your asking..
Orik: ... guys... stop...
Ben: there is no good.. there is no evil..!
Ben: There is no such thing as normal!
Brock his skin returns to normal
Brock: there are good and evil deeds

Orik: ... "evil is in the eye of the beholder"... right....
Brock: But I won't fight you anymore....
Brock: I don't care what you do to me..
Ben: So what if I go after Valeria..?
Ben: you won't do anything..?
Orik: ... then i'll stop you, and i wont kill you or fight you... but you wont get to her.

Ben he laughed
Ben: Oh i'd love to see that..
Orik: ... even if i have
to trail you for the rest of my life... i wont let you kill again
ben... there are other ways to have fun...
Orik: ... and.... i need to stop killing as well...
Ben: lets see how well you two are educated..
Ben: Do you know about the old greek saying? "Man is the Measure of All Things" ?

Orik: .... i've heard of it...
Brock: As have I
Ben: Do you know what Sophism is, gentlemen?
Brock: I've heard the term
Orik: ... i'd have to look it up or be reminded... but it sounds familiar
Ben: in other words, No.

Orik: ... like i said... i'd have to be reminded.
Ben: Sophism promotes Relative Morality Morals, i.e. Good and Bad. It depends upon the situation, it is relative to your needs.
Ben: For example, gentlemen..
Orik: ... yeah... but in it the lines of good and evil are always scewed, because each situation is different
Ben: Torture of prisoners is a bad thing, but necessary in times of war?
Orik: i've heard this debate before...

Ben he stood up, smiling to himself
Ben: "The Wise Man is the only one who knows best how to manipulate others and gratify his own desires"
Brock: (....copy/paste fail)
Ben: (Indeed.. XD)
Orik: ... ben... do you consider yourself a wise man?
Ben: Probably..

Ben: Knowledge is not useful, but false knowledge and twisted arguments are my weapons..
Orik: ... ben... go home... please...
Ben he laughed
Ben: Home..
Ben: yeah right..
Brock: why do you believe death will bring you happiness? it will bring you nothing.

Orik: ... you dont have a home?
Ben: If you make me go home now.. I might sacrifice a few people to help me calm down..
Ben: and let me remind you, you've just doomed shuanna
Orik: how have i doomed shuanna?
Ben: becaue I made her my squeeze..
Ben he turned to face where the door was, walking away slowly
Brock: (i need sleep...
Brock: )
Orik turned to walk with him, not in front of him or behind him, but at his side.
Ben: Sorry Orik, Im not up for threesomes..
Ben he disappeared
Orik: ... damnit...
Orik grimaces.
Orik: ... i'm sorry... shuanna... for what he's about to do to you...
