A nice club to Plot. Excellent!

[Marr-bles™]

Brian's rustic form walked into the club, music was blaring out every corner of the place and for once a smile appeared on his face. Such a cool place to start a fire or a fight. Lets see who can beat me this time. I"m stronger... more intelligent, not to mention I've got a BEAUTIFUL girl with me know that's as tough as a rock. What more could I ask for? Besides... Everyone is going to fear me and well, lets face it... if this girl that already has my affections and my vote, can win me over... and does what she said she's goingto do, then who knows what will happen? I just might find me a girlfriend so soon in the game. I just hope she works out, cause I'd really hate to have to hurt her pretty face. She's really hot. Geeze this place is really loud. Sure do with that they would tone it down just a bit. Where is that girl? I though we had plans to meet her.. but I guess I'll just wait on her.. maybe get something to drink while I wait.

"Hey! Hey!" He started out as he raised his arm to the waitress walking by him. "How about a drink... just a beer. Best one you got. THis should cover it." He said to her and handed her a ten dollar bill. Excess change wouldn't be needed when good beer called for it. Looking around he noticed alot of people were around but the girl wasn't anywhere to be found. "Well, I guess she couldn't make it. O'well... better luck next time."

Next time, I'll just kiss her and mean it... an offer she can't refuse... maybe? He said with a wicked grin and paused a moment as the memory hit him. It was just after he made the offer to help him destory the city again and her actions were mezmorizing. "Lets cause havock shall we." He felt a cold chill run down his back as he remembered the kiss she put on his forehead and for once, something other than fire was sent down his spine.

Alana's head bopped to the loud, blasting music. She began to wonder if they ever had mosh-pits in this club. There sure was a hell of alot of room for one...But then again, this club had to be smart enough to stray away from rock music. Alana was pretty sure that a lawsuit was the last things they wanted on their hand; blood at that. She ran her fingers throughout her freshly blow-dryed hair. The flashing lights that made everything look as though it were moving slower than it really was made a cool effect on the redness of it.

Her brown eyes, as well as her form, sauntered over to the bar. He's said that's where he'd be if she hadn't chickened out. Although that joke held no seriousness to it, all he had to do to insure her pact to him, was to keep making jokes and comments such as those...Alana was always out to prove any and everyone who doubted her wrong. But she had to keep on reminding herself that she was in this not only to be evil, but to help soem people along the way. And all at the same time, she had to keep that alterior motive hidden, and her evil side exposed; especially around Brian.

It was then she spotted him. His strawberry Blonde hair; how hot was he? A smirk played on Alana's face. As she finally reached him, she walked past him, headed to the bar stool beside him. But along the way to that short, short distance, she ran her fingers along his neck, making sure that her nails made gentle contact with the skin. This was sure to send a tingle down his spine. She, with ease, hopped up onto the bar stool, smiling at him, just waiting to see his reations. She watched as the bartender sat a beer infront of him.

"Sorry if I kept you waiting," she began with a smirk,"I love to arrive fashionably late."

[Marr-bles™]

Brain returned his gaze after thinking about their first time meeting to see the bartender sit the beer down in front of him but before he could reach for it, a tingling sensation hit the back of his neck. The nails that slip across his neck stopped him in his thoughts as he twisted his head over a bit to see her, one eye just visible. "So, you came? I'm impressed... I should say!" He said remembering that when they first met, he never mentioned that he was impressed by her.

"Well, I guess arriving late is better than not arriving. I was about to think that I was going to have to do something else to persuade you not to go against me, but it seems that I won't get that chance?" He grinned as he picked up the beer infront of him and took a gulp of it. The lights flashed around the club as another song started to play. "So, Now that your here, I think we need to talk about this little 'Reaking Havok on the town' plan I've got... of course we could start it here... end with that new school they just made. BUT... I want to hear your thoughts. I'm planning on making this the most memorable attack... even more than when they failed ten years ago." He paused a moment then saw as the bartender came up to them and looked at the girl. "Get whatever you want Alana... THe tabs on me..." He said to her as he took another gulp of his imported beer.

[krispey]

Alana smiled- he was impressed. Exactly!that's what people were supposed to be, especially when that's what Alana aimed for! She shook her head slighty, "Nope, mister sir," she laughed, (I don't think he told her his name yet, did he? well, Im gonna pretend like he didn't.) "Wait, what is your name anyway? I don't believe you gave me yours?" Her elbow rested on the bar's counter top, her legs crossed dantily. She listened to his words, and her mouth went dry. He's putting meon the spot?! Crap! I didn't expect for this to arise. Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh gosh gosh!!! I was just thinking that he'd do all the work...Is this really how Bonnie and Clyde worked? I should've did y research... She was caught in a trance for a few seconds, and quickly snapped out of it when he spoke once more. "Oh uhm..." She swallowed, though she was sure Brian couldn't hear the gulp that seemed to drown out all of the music, "No, I'm fine, I don't think I drink...?" She shook her head. It was now probably pretty obvious that he threw her off by asking her plans for causing havock. "I mean, I don't drink." She flashed a quick smile, and passed her glance back to Brian, "What is that that you're drinking?"

[Marr-bles™]

BRian starred at her momentarily. "Mister sir? My name is something that I thought I told you not to forget!" He smiled at her. Evidently she had forgotten his name in the heat of the moment during the two's coversation when they first met. He didn't mind though, getting to say his name again, really meant that she would be able to remember it this time and hopefully, the next time someone asked his name, is when they'll be asking who destroyed the place. "but just to remind you... it's Brian."

"Well, that's fine..." He turned to the bartender. "Give me another Samuel Adams." He quickly told her and gave her another ten as she walked away. "So... about the whole part... you havn't really thought about it? I should have expected that. I mean you act so innocent when I first talk to you. I could have thought that you were just going to go with me on this. You know... Just stick with me babe, and I'll take care of you." He said as he leaned in closer to her, his eye's were locked on her's. "Together, we will live..." He let his arm lay on her shoulder as he neared her Ear. "We'll talk about that later.. but for now. Lets have some fun, shall we?" He back away from her ear, and stood up.

Jonathan strode up behind the two remaining on the fringe of the crowd as not to attract their attention, but close enough to capture most of what they had said.

He took a step closer to the two, his unimpressive body seemingly mingling with the half darkness around them.

This reminds me of the Oni dens. Akumu said within Jonathan's head.

Dark, illegal, and smells of the impure arising from every corner, esspecially these two. The demon continued within his head, ideas of retaining the former glory his name once held. Of making the word Akumu a terrible thing to be heard again.

Believe me, it'll be fun, you get to do something to fill your time, and I get the sacrifice a demon of my nature deserves. The Oni explained.

Besides they obviously need the help of someone with an IQ above 5, and tastes more sophisticated than that of a dieing cockroach. The demon continued speaking about the beer in Brian's hand, and the nearly speechless girl next to him, who clearly had no plan.

"Might I make a suggestion?" Jonathan said, placing a hand on Brian's back, and Alana's, His voice pleasant, but not overly so, his face kind, but not cheery.

"Because you two clearly intend to cause havoc and chaos, with..." He looked from Brain to Alana

"Well lets just say you'd be starting from scratch." He said, his voice still partially kind.

He motioned to the waitress, whispered something, and slipped her a piece of paper disguised as a one hundred dollar bill. He then proceeded to take the seat on the other side of Brian.

The waitress then gave each of them a thin clear wine glass, and pouring a red wine into them. Finishing by handing the bottle to Jonathan.

"Amontillado, how poetic." Jonathan said, remembering the Edgar Allan Poe story while he read the label.

"Any how, I think that for something as big as what you intend to do, you'll need something more then a hot headed boy, and scatter brained girl.thats where I come in."

And you think I overdo things, please look at you. Akumu said sarcastically.

Just say you want to kill, say you want blood.

You clearly have no idea how the human mind works. Jonathan responded to him.

[krispey]

Alana smiledatBrian as he back away. "That sounds just f-" She was intterupted by a handlanding on her back...Her eyes shot over to the person. How tempting it was to just reatliate. Alana hated his presence already...Something about him was quite omnious...As he handed a tip to the bartender, Alana shot Brian a 'who the heck is this' glance. Obviously, she wasn't enjoying his un-invited company.

As he removed his hand, Alana brushed off that one spot on her back that he'd touched as though he were the scum of the Earth. "The next time you touch me," Alana began in a cross tone, "AndI remove our hand with no certified medical staff around, we'll see just how scattered-brained I really am." She stood up from her barstool, eyeing this newly arrived person.

"We don't ened your help, but I'm sure you're gonna put your imput in anyway...Seeing how you just randomnly pop up after ease dropping." Her arms were folded loosely over her chest as she watched the guy intently.

[Marr-bles™]

Brian started to go to the dance floor, but was oddly shaken as a hand touched his back. For a moment he thought it was Alana, but he noticed her reaction to him as well. His eye's instantly looked to him and one hand reached for his belt that held the liquids capable of his powers igniting. With a stern look, he listened to what he was saying.

I think that for something as big as what you intend to do, you'll need something more than a hot headed boy, and a scatter brained girl

"Hot- headed... BOY? YOu got the hot headed thing right, but a little more goes into being hot... but I really think that you dont' want to find out how hot, I can get. Honestly, you don't think I'm that young to be called a boy, huh? Anyways, That's what She did when she first met me but beleive me... she learned first thing not to call me that. We are going to be able to do this without your suggestions... but, if you wish to put in your input, then go ahead.... but, " HE paused a moment thinking. If this guy could help them, or contribute any information to help them do what he was bent on doing, then he just might come in handy. Might. Brian looked over to Alana a moment noticing how angry it made her to have him put his hands on her. "If you touch her again, without her say.. I'll be sure that your burnt... Literally!"

Brian put one hand on his other arm, waiting to see what this guy was going to say to get them to listen. It had to interest them, but if this guy wants to help them. So be it.

[VEN is Back]

"Trust me boy." Jonathan replied putting extra emphasis on the word boy.

"A conquest of the town coming from you two, whom have just left adolescence, would something to scoff at."

Such disrespect, shame I couldn't have my full glory and powers, I'd be feasting by now Akumu grumbled inside his head, remembering what it was like to have full powers, and be completely powerfull.

"You see you two have one major problem your just two. Now by your odd little pun I'll assume you have something to do with heat. Great that'll get you all of nowhere without someplace to put it, you need something above force, something greater, stronger, and mentally beyond either of you." Jonathan explained.

"Watch" He removed a pad of paper from his pocket. The papers where all completely white, but cut to the precise shape of a dollar bill.

He placed it on the table, and pressed a finger to it. Imeaditly inks seemed to appear out of nowhere from the point where his fingers had made contact, they swirled and adjusted themselves, until a perfectly printed dollar bill was on the table.

"That alone can cause more chaos than you can imagine, intercepting letters and notes sending out different things. Brute force can only get you so far, this is the next step." he said gleefully, sipping his glass of wine.

"And if the lady would be so kind as two allow me to even mommentarily touch her again I can show you just how effective my other abilities can be."

Tone it down there buddy. Akumu stated.

"Excuse me I apologize let me explain. If I can make contact with either of you, I can show something unbelievably effective, and don't worry neither of you will get hurt."

[krispey]

"Well, look, what do we have here?" She watched over the man's shoulder, pausing. But only for a second. "Someone who knows everything, but yet, has accomplished nothing." Alana laughed, her eyes on the man himself.
"Oh no buddy, I'm not about to be your little guinie pig. How stupid did you think we really were?" She asked, before putting her hand up. "That.. Was a rhetorical question; don't answer." Her hand ran throughout her short, scarlet once more, her brown eyes no focused on Brian. She wrapped her arms around one of his arms.
"And Brian, you aren't going to be his little bug under a microscope either, mkay." That was more of a comment than anything. Her eyes narrowed into a slit, now back to the other man, "And if you're going to be apart of this team, you're no going to act like you know it all. Because if you truly did something in the past, you wouldn;t be standing here trying to belittle two people, and seemingly trying to prove how deep your 'evilness' goes."
A polite smile was now exhibited amongst her features as she waited for some feedback.

[Marr-bles™]

"SO... your calling my powers... *HEH* useless? I think not! Not when I could instantly burn you right now? I could burn every peice of paper that you have, and you'd have nothing. So your a little magician when it comes to paper. And what exactly are you doing? Making fake money? Sure, if we needed to have money, then we'll come to you, but.. yeah, I don't think so. YOu use some kind of tricks to do that.. you know, I think This coversation might be over, cause I'm sure that your really wanting to join us and I think that you need to be taught a lesson when it comes to superiority..." He paused a moment looking over at Alana when he mentioned using her as a guinea pig. Heh? Who was he kidding? He comes over acting all Mr. Knows it all. Until he can prove he deserves the respect he's expecting, he might want to cool it down. I really think he needs to just stay on our level or I'll stoop to his level and show him what a little heat could do to the guy...

"Well... Like She said..." He said feeling her hand slip around his. Ha.. she's coming around. Maybe this guy was here for a reason, but.. what exactly does he want? He better hurry cause I'm running out of patience!. "NEITHER of us are going to be your 'Lets practice something shall we'." He got cockey with his words just then. "Oh, and just for the record... I'm far from adolescence... but you on the other hand.. I'm just not sure by the way your acting."
Brian took the arm that was linked with Alana's and moved it to wrap around her back and rest his palm on her side. "Well, Alana.. might we dance now... unless Mr.... What was your name..." He asked with a questionable look on his face.

[VEN is Back]

"Well tell you what." Jonathan responded thuroughly unimpressed by his display.

"I'll leave a phone number here." He took out another piece of paper pressed his finger two it and left a cell hone number with a note saying "Brian call this imeaditly."

"And guess what I can feel very assured you'll call that number, curiosity and all." He said matter-0-factly.

You enjoy having me here don't you?Akumu questioned already knowing the answer.

Shut up you old ass bastard. Jonathan responded to him, not bothering to liten to the demon's rantings to his retaliation.

"Do you know why you will definetely call that number? Because with me, seeing is believeing." He said leaning in close, before letting the last few drops of wins swim down his gullet. He then continued to slip into the crowd, leaving Brian and Alana's sight.

What delightfull....helpers they'll be. Akumu stated to him a dark happiness potent within his tone.

We shall see, we shall definetely see. Jonathan said, keeping a hand on the cell phone in his pocket in case it rang, which he assumed it would.

[krispey]

Alana's eyes narrowed to a squint as the man turned and left. She then focused her gaze on the piece of paper with seven digits on it. "Gah! I just want to rip it up right now! The nerve of him." She swipee the piece of paper off o the bar, looking at it. "What is this! Brian call immediately? Pfft." She shook her head, taking Brian's hand, slapping the piece of paper down into his palm. "It's for you Brian"

She was about to was about to walk onto the dance floor when....
-------------------

A quick and heavy hand went across his face. The sound from the contact, Brandon thought, was so loud that the crowd near them could hear it. He inhaled deeply thorugh his nostrils, his teeth clenching. His fingers skimmed the spot where he'd just been slapped, the spot now turnuing red. He could feel it. "What the hell was that for?!" He asked, although he knew quite well what it was for.
Jackie pushed him back, making him stumble a little. And she did again and again until she had him backed into the bar itself. When there, she slapped him once more. Her brown eyes were glossy as though she would cry in any minute.
"Jackie-"
"No! You know what why! You know!" She cryed out, her voice shakey.
"Jack-"
Slap
"No you bastard! I TRUSTED YOU! AND FOR SO LONG!"
"I'm sorry JAckie!"
Slap. Brandon clinched his teeth once more. "If you slap me one more time, Jackie, I swear I'll"
Slap This one even harder than the last.
"WHAT BRANDON, WHAT? YOU'LL HIT ME BACK? INFRONT OF ALL THESE PEOPLE? ALL OF THESE GIFTED PEOPLE? THEY'D HAND YOU YOUR ASS ON A SILVER PLATTER!" She screamed in a strained, yet shakey tone of voice.
"YOU'RE NOT EVEN A GIFTEFD! YOU'RE A DECIETFUL LITTLE PIG!" Jackie turned, and stormed away in tears, her arm wiping her eyes.

Brandon swallowed hard, forcing the lump in is throat down. His face was on fire. It seemed as though the music had stopped, and a bright spotlight was on him...He looked around at all of the staring faces. He couldn't hear them over his bumping heart beat and blaring music, but he knew that they were whispering; And about him.
He turned, and stalked off in a different direction than Jackie; to the exit.

(Krispey just for future reference, Jonathans powers mean that the minute you loose I contact with him he completely blinks out of your memory)

[krispey]

((Oh, i thought you needed physical contact with the person. And still my post counts b/c she did it just as he walked away...Im sure he doesnt walk THAT fast..))
