*The smell of bacon and steak swam up from the steaming plate at the Pig and Whistle Bar. Tak Nanten smiled broadly, inhaling the scent of tastebud heaven that just awaited his plate.*
It was a noisy bar, but what bar wasn't nowadays. With talks of blood drinkers, curses and treachery around every damned corner everyone was nervous or agitated. The smell of fear to Tak was so palpable he could cut it with his knife.
"Heh...blood drinkers...." he muttered, chuckling ruefully about his own past and his half vampire self.
He fell onto his stake with abandon, tearing the bloody flanks from the bone it was attached to. Rare steak wasn't TOO much of a rare occurrence in a bar but licking the sticky pools of animal blood from the plate would be, so Tak controlled himself from doing so.
As he ate he kept his eyes on the delicious looking woman at his far left. Skin as pale as the snow, eyes that reflected the harvest moon upon a lake in all its surreal glass-like majesty. Breath-taking clothing that left little to make known she was a woman.
A warrior.
She stood back straight, clearly at ease with her movements and abilities. An inherent grace that flows up and out of her like a wellspring of sensuality. A thin blade rested lightly across her back from a scabbard showing minor ware from use. And of course the highlight for Tak, blood red clothing. He felt a slight quickening of his pulse and tampered that down. It had been a long time since he had been with a real women, and this figure in enshrouded in macabre blood was playing on his self control. He had finished his meal and was about to invite himself over to sit by her when she sprung up and walked out the door.
Tak grinned openly, any female that devilishly attractive deserved a decent chase. He paid for his meal and walked out to find her.
It didn't take him too long to notice her as she slipped away into the forest just on the outskirts of the filthy little town which he stayed for now.
"Yes my lady...... run for me, let me chase you, let this hunt for your bedside be worthwhile."
He followed, his enchanted boots not making a sound as he slipped into the trees echoing her movements perfectly. He stealthily followed her until he heard her battle cry.
“ Zaki Ruhei is my name,” she announced. “ You reek of my comrades and I have came to avenged them!”
He peaked out from behind a tree to see Folken, a vampire.
Tak sighed mightily, misunderstanding Zaki's intentions.
"Great... a beauty with a vengence for vampires..... what a waste......"
His lust stolen from him, Tak decided to rest up against a tree to watch the outcome of this intriguing battle.

Tak yawned, throughly bored with the entire fiasco. He had hoped there might be some action to be had, but alas it was not in the cards for him tonight. Sighing lustily, the last of his passion swept away like a midsummer breeze, he about-faced and started sauntering towards the tavern. Crunching the leaves and underbrush beneath his boots, making no attempts to be silent now, he re-entered the town shuffling across the dirty cobblestones back towards his room for the night.*
"Oh well," he grumbled, "at least I can drink a bit more before tucking in."
Entering the same damned noisy, smelly common room, Tak threw the tavernmaster a Gold Mark, grabbed a cask of mead from the well and calmly walked to his room.
"Ah, excuse me sir?" the tavern master asked nervously, "the girl you requested is in your room already, I sent her up just a few minutes ago."
A feral grin found Tak's face.
*Ah yes, the girl, of course how could I forget my dessert...*
His face still holding that same wide gleeming grin, Tak walked with renewed energy towards his room for a late night snack. He'd have to leave this shabby town after tonight for his actions, but oh well, mercenaries always move around leaving a trail of blood. Nobody will mind another dead one in a ****ty little tavern like this one....

Note: White are for others talking. Dark red is Eumie.
The sweet scent of the blood orchid wafted into the nose of its Watcher as she walked so gracefully down the streets of the beat down town. The chitter chatter along the streets were annoying enough-- rumors of this and legends of that swarming about, their words almost visible in the thick dust of smoke. She only wished to have stayed back within the castle but that place she called home was suffocating her, killing her although she was already half dead. Her hair flowed behind her as she walked by, the slight breeze brushing her pale cheeks, giving off a hint of pink where her cheek bones lie. The passer-byes brushed her shoulders, colliding into her, leaning against her and she hissed with every contact, every touch. Her eyes darted from one place to another as she watched the bodies wonder about, as they swayed in their drunken state or their sing-song laughter surrounding them. It disgusted her, how filthy these humans were. There was a final collision of bodies with this female, Eumie and another male.
“Oh, excuse me lady.” He apologized half heartedly, bowing at her as she stopped to watch this thing act. Eumie hissed at the man but restrained from displaying her demonic k-nines from his view or anyone else’s. “Ooo! The lady might just bite!” He raised his voice quickly, slurring his words a bit. “Why don’t you just scurry on home and cook for your dear daddy.” The old man commanded, shooing away Eumie with his left hand and turning to take about his way. Eumie grew furious at the act and followed him, grabbing his shoulder and turning him quickly. “Hey! Hey! What is this about! Get your crummy hands off, street girly!”
“Oh, as you wish.” Eumie replied with a playful tone.
Her grip on the man’s shoulder grew firm and he looked at her oddly, starting to feel pain spread through his bone. His instincts told him to pull away after a while but Eumie merely gripped harder. Looking down at her hand, he watched as her nails grew in length, his eyes unbelieving and in shock. As her nails dug into his shoulder the man pulled away causing Eumie to rip his sleeve off and revealing what she could do. His shoulder was the color of purple and black against his pale colored skin, spreading slowly towards his neck and chest.
“Old man, you should know when to hold your tongue.” Eumie advised as she picked him up by the collar and threw him against a building, causing commotion. Commoners and street walkers all stopped to watch the ruckus and pointed. Some laughed at the old man and some fearing the woman, fearing who she could be. The old man tried to stand from his condition but only fallen in his attempt as Eumie walked up to him, grabbing his collar again, helping him up off the ground to face her. Eumie’s grin grew as with this, her demonic fangs were out on display for the man only. He squirmed in her grip and started to kick the wall behind him in fear for his life.
“HEY! Go someplace else if you want to start a brawl” Another man yelled from the door of the building. Apparently he was one of the workers, if not the owner of the place. “Scums causing trouble…” The man mumbled as he walked back in to go back to work.
“You’re lucky, old man.” Eumie hissed and let out a snap of her teeth to make the man flinch. She threw him to the crowd as they started to disperse from the action ending without anything interesting.
Eumie then looked up at the building sign which indicated that it was a tavern. She walked in and as she opened the door the sudden brush of smoke and hot air hit her face. A mere ‘Hmph’ escaped her lips as she walked in and took a seat at a small table. She looked around, the poorly lighted place gave her eyes some rest and her vision became so much sharper. She watched the men drinking and talking, smoking and laughing which she grunted at. Her interests in humans were of little and took on to another item which was the tavern itself. It was small, cozy suppose and had one flight of steps which most likely let up to the rooms. It was just a few yards in front of her table and the bar was to her left. There was a tap on her shoulder and when she looked up, it was a waitress who dressed in a skimpy outfit for the men.
“What can I getcha?” She asked as she chewed her gum in a repulsive manner.
“Whatever is good here.” Eumie replied with a low tone, just enough for the girl to hear.
“Com’n right up!” She answered, walking away to the bar and retrieving her order. Eumie sat at rest, watching, waiting for something to happen.

Tak groggily opened his eyes, the sunlight streaming in thru the dusty shades igniting the particles of dust that hovered steadily in his room seeming to be a kind of floating fire in his bleary eyes. He stretched out long feeling the pull on his tightly corded muscles and was slightly shocked to feel something bump against his leg. He quickly rolled of the bed sending the sheets flying over his naked body in the fashion of a gigantic cape streaming out behind him so fluid and quick was the movement. He drew his sword from the scabbard right next to his bed and prepared to thrust it forward, until he caught what it was exactly that hit his leg.
The whore lay still, he body drained of blood but not enough to make it look as if she had been drunk dry. He smiled slightly at the remembrance of sweet, young blood dripping down his throat.
"Ah... I gotta get the hell outta here now...." he muttered to himself.
He quickly gathered his gear and clothes, and moved downstairs into the common room. He thew a bag of gold at the innkeeper and without a word, moved on into the streets outside. Breathing the fresh air outside, slightly befouled by the inn behind him. Remembering the chaos behind him upstairs he smiled slightly and moved on at a jaunty pace down the cobblestone road towards another town, to hopefully some sort of adventure that would break his perpetual boredom.
