Life in the Fast Lane {Closed}

[Trinity Keating]

The moon shined brightly above as the clouds danced in the sky. Not one of them tonight has even dared to block out the moon. It was full two days ago but the pull of it was still sharp in the air. A female made her way down the street. People stared and stopped as she passed. The fridged air of the night seemed to freeze everything, except for that female. Ice coated every inch of street and sidewalk but this female could walk down the sidewalk just fine in her knee him leather high heeled boots. The ice just seemed to melt beneath her boots as she walked. It probably didn't help her that she was wearing a short skirt and some low cut t-shirt when it was about, oh seven degrees outside. The female was practically screaming out for attention.

"You'd think I had three heads or something."

The smoothness of her voice slide across the frozen street and seemed to melt everything. People gasped as the power of her voice hit them and warmed them. The sad thing was the female was doing all of this subconciously. The amount of people staring at her was beginning to annoy her and thus the subconsious anti-freeze. Funny how things worked out like that, She was wearing little to no clothing because she always got too warm when her legs were completely covered. So what if people stared but like hell was she going to throw a jacket on just to try and look normal. If people had a problem with it they could bring it up with her. Just as she reached out to grab the door to the club a drunk man pulled it open before she could reach it.

"Well ain't you a sweetheart."

She batted her eyelashes at him as she entered the club. Just before she was inside he smaked her right on the rump and a snicker rolled from the group of men that walked out behind him.

"Now you just went from sweetheart to asswipe in ten seconds flat. I think thats a new record."

The female turned landed a round house kick straight to his side. The man flew into his buddy and sent all of them sliding down the sidewalk.

"Man gotta love when it is icy outside."

The female laughed and entered the now silent club. A scowl quickly crossed her face.

"What the fuck. Never seen a chick kick some ass before?"

As soon as she said the words everyone went back to what they were doing. The female quietly slide into the nearest empty booth where she regained control over the flames that had been dancing on the underside of her palms. Dammit all to hell and she was just getting better at this too and now all the sudden she had to go and lose control. She's lucky this whole place didn't burn down to the ground though it did get fairly warmer in the bar when she walked in. Not that any of the guys minded because all the waitresses and dancers were now topless. What low life bitches. The female leaned back in her booth and just watched the chaos of the club.

[Arioch]

Arioch watches in disinterest as the men slide down the street, opposite of he. His black hair seemed to absorb the moonlight, his yellow eyes bright and alert. He sighs as he enters the bar himself, a brow rising being the only indication of suprise to the sudden increase in temperature. He slips out of his jacket, suddenly grabbing the attention of those around him, and eliciting more than a few chuckles.

He had a scar on his face from a recent fight he hadn't bothered to fix yet, an X crossing over and under his eyes, centered on the bridge of his nose. He wore a tight cloth black shirt with the sleeves torn off, and a few rips in tears in it from his fight. Leather vambraces ran up his arms from palms to elbows, and a chain wound it's way across his chest.

He wore black jeans, knee high black leather boots and chains crossed behind the back of his legs. His brilliant yellow eyes stared everyone down, and the waitress kept looking through the tears in his clothes to the tanned and muscled body beneath. He growls at one of the patrons that got too close, and stomped out the knee of one that got uppity, the second kick shattered ribs and knocked him over, where Arioch the proceeded to treat him like the rest of the floor.

He casts a minor illusion that disguises his actions from the clubbers, not nearly powerful enough to hide them from the vampiress. He summons a bottle of vodka, the strongest they had, and ices it with another quick spell, a final spell alerting him to the vampiress, and his head snapped up, eyes locking onto her. He moves ove sliding into the seat across from her, taking a hearty drink from the bottle, the effects further enhanced by a spell so it was powerfUll enough to affect even him.

"Humans, gotta love em, aye?" he asks sarcastically, his eyes moving to her as his head remained facing the club, a half smile playing along his lips. "Eru, pleasure." he said, taking another deep drink from the bottle, eyeing the other patrons in disdain.

[Trinity Keating]

The female smiled at the club enjoying the momentary peace she had before this man walked in. He looked like he came straight from hell and that annoying little tingle in the back of her neck confirmed it. Goddamit. The female lowered her head and coddled the drink in her hands. Maybe he wouldn't see her and then she wouldn't have to deal with this shit right now. The drink in her hands was given to her by one of the waitresses from a gentleman across the bar. She'd only agreed on taking it because she didn't want to kill the little whitch that brought it. The female looked up and stared straight into the eyes of the demon across from her. Panic tickled at the edge of her conciousness but it was mostly annoyance at how he had come over without her sensing it.

"They are enjoyable when it comes to playing with things. Especially the males."

The female grinned at him and eyed his choice of drink. He definately had a hard dar, she decided smiling to herself and finishing off the rest of her glass.

"Here filler up. I don't know what it is you've got there but it smells like it will knock me on my ass if I drink it."

She laughed at him and she scanned the rest of the room. Her eyes locked on the man that had sent her a drink and she realized her was actually heading this way.

"Fucking bitch doesn't know when to quit."

As soon as he placed his meaty little paws on the table the female slide her hand across his and gripped his hands tight. Her eyes glowed litte smoldering embers as she held his gaze.

"Listen well you fucking sack of blood. I am here with this man across from me and if you can't see that past the big bulge in your pants then I suggest you try and piss me off because I will turn you into a pile of ash faster than you can say holy shit."

The female sneered and increased the temperature under her hand so that she burned his flesh. The smallest amount of flame showed but no one would notice. The man yelped and pulled his hand away. Fear coated his face like a mask and he ran off with his burned little meaty hands. THe female burst out laughing and turned to face the demon.

"Sorry about that I needed to get him off my back because you know I don't feel like dealing with humans right about now."

The second half of her sentence could be taken two ways and she had totally intended to sound like she only wanted to deal with him. If he picked up on but she wouldn't doubt he'd miss it.

"The name's Nakita and if you haven't figured it out by now I'm also a pyro. Though my powers seemed to be mirrored by my moods, but I don't fucking care."

Kia laughed at settled back in the seat of the booth enjoying the quiet chatter from the rest of the room which wasn't really quiet at all.

[Arioch]

He chuckles, filling her glass with the potent drink. "A lot nicer than I'd have been to the guy. And watch yourself, spell enhanced for a bit of a kick." he said, taking another drink. He rubs his hand across his face, momentarily fatigued, before shaking it off.

"A pyro huh? Nice, I can exploit the same element with spells, among others. Demon myself, though I'm sure you already guessed." he said with a shrug. He could see her wounded stalker with his friends, and his mind immediately tuned to his, listening in. He grins wickedly, the drink beginning to affect him for him to act thus.

He spins another small illusion to make it seem as if they were deep in conversation, and his mind envelopes the man, crushing his and dominating him. Arioch's eyes close as he controls the man who then proceeds to throw all the money he owned on the counter, ordering drinks for every one, before getting up and trying to dance, followed by immediate drunken puking over one of the dancers, before Arioch released him, chuckling to himself.

"Humans, so easily subjugated. Childs play to demons like myself. Almost sad." he says with a chuckle, feeling a lot better now. "so, Nakita, what brings a lovely young vampiress such as yourself out to this fine establishment on such a beautiful moonlit night?" he asks her cheerily, his voice deep and melodic, a slight smile on his lips as his eyes stared into her own.

[Trinity Keating]

Mildly amused Kia watched the man she had just wounded make a complete and total fool of himself. Laughter bubbled up from her as she sipped the drink he poured for her. The liquid burned down her throat and coughing she placed the glass back on the table.

"Holy fucking hell! How potent did you make it? This is strong enough to fell an Ox."

Kia inspected the liquid and decided that even though it was strong it had been a long time since she let herself get drunk and with this man? Hell she'd do anything. A sly smile crossed her face as she sipped the drink. A demon eh? That she knew but to hear it directly from him well it was interesting. She had only just recently heard about the demons escaping from hell and that they were out and about. Interesting. Wonder if Sybil was released yet.

"I was in the neighborhood and was looking for an easy way to get a bite to eat. Plus its cold outside and I don't think people are going to like the fact that I can go out in the cold without a jacket."

The female mused taking another long drink from the glass. A warm feeling spread throughout her body and a sloppy grin crossed her as she stole his bottle and poured herself another full glass.

"Cheers to demons with spells for alcohol. Fuck this feels so good. I forgot what its like to have alcohol affect you."

Nope. No slur yet but the hint of it was there. The temperature rose slightly in the room and the table beneath her hands turned black. Embarassed she placed her hands in her lap in hopes of not burning the table any further.

"So demon what brings you out here? Shouldn't you be raping women and pilaging villages or something like that?"

Kia murmered around her drink as she took another long drink. her smoldering eyes held his the entire time. She was curious about demons. She never understood how they worked maybe she would find out more from...had he said his name? Guess not then.

"By the way am I going to get a name or should I just call you demon? A vampire like me has no need for summoning but it would be nice to address you in person."

She closed her eyes taking in the smells and sounds of the room hoping to find her next meal. She was getting hungry and with this alcohol in her system she'd need blood soon or things might start catching on fire.

[/size]

[Arioch]

He chuckles, "My name is it? Hmm...I see no trouble in giving you my true name then. I am Arioch, Lord of the Seven Darks. An elder demon that, contrary to belief, prefers to read and chat rather than rape and raze." he says with another chuckle, taking his bottle back and draining the last of it, conjuring another to replace it.

He had a good buzz going, but wasn't drunk, and he planned to keep it that way. He slips his hands over hers, his frosted over slightly to offset her heat, and when he pulled his hands away, the enchantment stuck to her hands, keeping them at a normal temperature. "Hungry? You can always strike a bargain with me to bring you something. I never ask for much, just free time on the human realm unless my summoner offers me something better of course." he says with a chuckle, wondering how she'd react.

[Trinity Keating]

Arioch, eh? So this guy is a demon lord? Interesting. Kia opened her mouth to say something but coldness slithered across her hand and she looked down. Her hands were no longer flaming up like a bonfire. Confusion flittered across her face and she held his gaze.

"How....? Why did you do that?"

Anger crept into her voice as she tried to shake off the coldness. It was odd for her to actually feel coldness. It seemed like she'd never feel it. Instead of questioning him anymore she grabbed his newest bottle and drained half of it. A throb started in the back of her head but she ignored it. Fuck it. She needed to get drunk and do something stupid. Her gaze traveled over Arioch's body. Or maybe do someone.

"How about next time you ask before freezing my powers. I know I don't have the best control of my powers but I'm getting better. At least I think I do."

Kia mumbled the last part putting her head in her heads. Truth be told she had small control over her powers. She could keep from burning someone when she touched them and she could also keep from burning down a place but when her emotions got crazy she lost a lot of control. Kia shook her head and grabbed the bottle drinking the rest of it in seconds. The world spun slightly but she didn't care. Fuck everything.

"I'm going to have a massive headache tomorrow but I really don't fucking care. How about you get me a burger and some fries Mr. Bargin cuz I am absolutely starved out of my mind."

Kia giggled slurring at him as she laid her head on the table and the temperature in the room rose about twenty degrees and the smell of sweat bit at her nose. The throbbing increased ten fold after she finished the entire bottle of Arioch's potent brew.

[/size]

[Arioch]

He chuckles, her desire easily achieved. Her food was before her, a bottle before him and a smile on his face. He counters the rise in temperature with a silent evocation, smiling as he took a drink from his bottle.

"Why? Because you seemed a bit of normalcy, and to not ignite everything around us dear. However, if it is flames you wish, just say so." he finishes with an evil chuckle, hoping there was no uncertainty to his meaning. He quickly downs the bottle himself, refilling it immediately, having a good buzz going now. By morning he'd be back in the demon realm unless summoned, and fighting every minute of his day. Oh well, that was just his luck.

[Trinity Keating]

A smile spread across her as the burger appeared. Man she loved her meat. Kia picked up the burger and took a big bite out of it. A small moan escaped her and she practically melted on the table.

"Damn this is a good burger."

Kia mumbled looking at him over the delicious meal. A thought struck her and she set the burger down.

"Wait I'm not going to die from eating this am I?"

She questioned holding his gaze. But then she decided it was ok and finished the burger off in seconds. The fries though she picked at enjoying the saltiness of them. With each fry her mouth grew dryer and dryer so she snatched his bottle and took a long swig of it.

"So what in the world are you doing here? You avoided my question earlier. Now I know demons can't lie but I know they don't always tell the whole truth. So seriously what are you here for?"

Kia looked at him as she popped another fry into her mouth. The warmth spread back into her hands and she grinned evilly. So what if she burned the place down what the hell was he going to do about it. Something tapped her on the shoulder and she turned to see wounded boy's buddy standing there. A sneer crossed her face and the fry she had in her hand turned to nothing but ash.

"Oh fuck this shit."

Flames coated her hand and she decked him straight on the side of the head. His screams quieted the club as he ran out clutching his face. Burnt skin dripping from his face like wax from a candle. The club goers stared blankly before they began screaming and running out of the club like a bunch of crazy humans. Kia laughed as the flames snaked up her arms as she turned to face Arioch.

"Um looks like we're going to have to leave."

She rubbed the back of her head sheepishly looking at Arioch.

[/size]

[Arioch]

He rises slowly, a soul chilling laugh issuing forth. "Why my dear, I'm trying to enjoy myself. Please however, allow me." he whispers conspiratorily, smiling at her. He turns his gaze to the bar, shadows enveloping his hand as a beautifully wrought bastard sword materialized within his fist. Made of black iron with crimson runes glowing along the blade with black fire dripping from it, it radiated an aura of malice.

He laughs again, power emanating from this great chaos lord, and raises his blade in the air, he let's it descend like the sentencing of their judgments. As it descends, a rift is torn in the air, and demons issued forth, laughing gleefully. He cries out, "Go my minions, feast on their flesh! Blood and souls for thy lord Arioch!"

He raises the hell forged blade again, roaring to life as he chuckles, lightning charging down the blade to mix with the flames. He swings it in a slow and graceful arc, before flourishing it with peerless skill, a rune left glowing before him. He speaks a word in a dead language, and chaos erupts, warping and tearing the bodies of the humans in the room, elemental destruction ravaging the building itself as he stands in the center of the scarlet fountain of death, drawing the souls unto him, into his blade to further his own power.

[Trinity Keating]

All Kia could do was watch in awe as the demons crawled up from the ground and began killing the humans who dared to try and escape. The room filled with blood and soon there wasn't an inch of the place that wasn't covered. While the blood bath pressed on Kia had not once moved from her spot. Her eyes were swirling with hunger as her mouth opened a crack showing fangs. A demon bumped her and that set her off.

"How about we heat things up a bit."

A vicious grin crossed her face as flames errupted from random places on the ground. The flames that had wrapped themselves around her arms snaked out hungrily searching for their next victim. Finally she moved welding the doors and windows shut so the rest of the humans couldn't escape as she attacked them. Some she burned. Some she tore their throats out of. But many of them she'd drain them dry and toss their lifeless corpses to the demons Arioch had summoned. Their dry horrid cries of happiness made a twisted smile settle upon her face. Moving with inhuman speed she danced amoung the scared humans slaughtering them. Her gaze flicked to Aroich's.

"God this is so much fun!"

The happiness in her voice was evident. The only reason she was happy was because her control was gone and she was running purely on instinct thanks to Aroich's special alcohol. God she felt alive. Flames now coated her like a second skin. Surprisingly her clothes were still intact though her skirt was a little shorter and her skirt was now a tang top. The floor beneath her boots was melting and fires started everywhere she stepped. Even the demons Aroich had summoned stayed away from her but the remaining humans couldn't hide. It didn't take long for her to completely clean out the whole establishment of humans. Every body was melted and burned to nothing but ash. The only remains of their slaughter was the massive amounts of blood everywhere. There had to have been inches of blood pooled on the ground. Funny how just a little alocohol can turn a woman into a monster.

[/size]

[Arioch]

He chuckles as his blade fades away, the demons returning to hell as their master bid them. He smiles at Nakita as darkness envelops them, wondering briefly how she'd fare with demons blood, before they reemerged in a living room miles away. It was a quaint two story house, and Arioch gestured to the fireplace which roared to life, bathing them in heat.

"Welcome to my home here on the human realm, make yourself at home. Is there anything I can get you?" he asks, playing the perfect gentleman as his clothes changed, becoming a pair of dark blue jeans and a skin tight black tee. He sinks into his couch, propping his feet up as he watched her, awaiting her reaction.

[Trinity Keating]

Kia stood in the center of the room smiling like and idiot at Aroich as she watched mystified as he sent his demons away. But one of the stupid creatures rammed her into the wall. Out of blind fury she grabbed it by the head and sunk her teeth into its neck draining it of all blood. Once the creatures cries died away she dropped the body where it was carried off by a couple of demons who wouldn't look at her. Before she even had a chance to realize what was going on Aroich shrouded them both in darkness and once the darkness disappeared she found herself standing in his living room. He transported them both to his place? How lovely. Kia turned and looked at him her blood humming with the small amount of power that the demon blood had given her. She wondered what would happen if she took some blood from him.

"Well other than the fact that I feel the need to kill stronger than ever before I think I'm pretty good."

Kia looked at him through her lashes grinning evilly. The orange and red flames still coated her body in a thin sheet but she was able to keep from burning his carpet despite the lack of control she has. She'd feel bad if she burned his carpet. Kia checked over herself nad realized she'd need a new pair of clothes soon.

"Oh and I might need some new clothes considering my flaming suit of armor is destorying my clothes but thank god my boots are still in tact."

She admitted eyeing up her knee high leather boots. A wave of hunger washed over her and her fangs swelled against her lips. The flaming armor swirled once and pulsed outward turning a scarlet red with her hunger.

"Fuck. You're going to have throw blood in there too."

The world spun a bit and she wanted to sit down but she couldn't without melting whatever she sat on. God her life was so fucked up. The dull throbbing in the back of her head had grown ten fold but nothing changed the intense need to kill and detroy she had. It took every muscle in her body to keep from doing something stupid, but yet it seemed even that the little control she had there was slipping.

[/size]

[Arioch]

He chuckles as he reaches forward, pulling her down to straddle him, a spell pulsing from his body to hers, extinguishing her flames and temporarily sealing them by tricking her mind into believing that she didn't have them, smiling up at her from his spot beneath her. His hands run up her back, massaging gently.

"Go ahead and feed, only angel or demon may kill me." he whispers , smilng lightly at her. He wraps his arms about waist, still smiling at her. "Or are you a bit intimidated by my blood?' He teases playfully, winking at her to show he was kidding.

[Trinity Keating]

The flames that coated her disappeared as her body thought the flames had completely vanished. Not surprising though her mind was well aware that he had spelled her flames away. Before she could open her mouth to speak he pulled her onto his lap. Soon enough her was stradling him well aware of her need for blood. She was also well aware of the fact that his hands felt amazing on her back.

"Mmmm you should do this for a living. I'm sure you could swoon any woman with these hands."

Kia mused rolling her head back and letting her black and red hair hang behind her before she brought her head back up to meet his eyes with her own hunger filled ones. They still smoldered like they were burning but the need for blood was there and very clear. Her fangs seemed to swell more as he gave her permission to take his blood. A predatory grin crossed her face as she leaned forward and kissed his neck tasting his skin.

"I'm not afraid of your blood. I'm afraid of what might just happen if I take it. Things will get heated up. That's all I'm worried about."

Kia murmered kissing his neck again running her fangs along the skin there finding the right spot. With her hands on his shoulders she bit into him. The warm liquid flowed freely and she couldn't help the moan tat came form her. God he tasted so good. Kia couldn't find the right words to describe his blood but it pulsed through her bringing to life feelings and emotions she'd kept in check for so long. Kia pulled from him taking the blood into her as she pressed herself against him. Her hands gripped him tightly, nails tearing at his shirt. She not only wanted his blood anymore she wanted all of him. His demon blood was the best thing she'd ever had making her feel amazingly alive.

"Thanks for the blood."

Kia practically purred pulling her teeth out of him as she licked the last of the blood of his neck. Her flames were under control but right now it was emotions and desires that were tearing her up inside. Kia reluctantly pulled herself back so she was only straddling his lap. Let him make the first move. Who knows maybe this night would turn out pretty good after all. Maybe it was worth getting the pounding headache in the back of her skull that slowly seemed to be fading as his blood hummed thorugh her.
