Boarding docks(invite only)

Panos sat on the edge of the docs and dangled his legs. He could see the Marina across the body of water. It's lights now distant glowing sparkles and bawbles.

He flipped through the stiff leather wallet that ment a recent purchase. A few pictures of females skimply dressed and six credit cards. Slipped behind one photo was a fifty dollar bill. A hidden stash perhaps? He pulled the crisp bill out and tucked it into his pocket. With a flip of his wrist he tossed the new hard wallet into the water and watched it float in the moonlight.


Your debt free now....Thomas.

He patted the pale cheek of the dead man whos head was twisted at an odd angle from his torso.

The warehouses loomed behind Panos and his new friend Tom the corpse, throwing shadows from the moon. He could hear crackling of a trash can fire but feared no interuptions. Bums rarely approached a man sitting next to a dead body, and when they did, they never got another chance to interupt anyone ever again.

It had been a long day.. or night.. so much had been going on lately that Alex felt she needed a break from it all, she needed to clear her head and just get back to herself for a change, but yet she was part of something bigger now, a real clan, a place of her own a real home, but yet she felt more alone then she had ever felt.

She had started to meet people, nice people in the clan, maybe she could become friends with some of them.. and then there was Nic.. well that was something that would never happen, she had come to the marina to get some fresh air, water always calmed her nerves, made her feel calm and relaxed, stuffing her hands in the pockets of her dark blue jeans she stared at the calm water that seemed to go on forever.

Hearing voices in the distance her first instincts told her to run, get out of there, looking over her shoulder she saw a man and a woman.. wait.. didn't she know that woman?

Pushing her long dark braid over her shoulder she turned, looking more closely at them she smiled when she saw who the woman was, Shay.. she didn't know the man, but if he was with Shay he couldn't be all bad, walking towards them she lifted her hand as a greeting.

"Shay, good to see you"

A smile formed on her lips as she greeted the other woman, looking towards the man she was with her eyes darkend for a moment, he seemed young, but then looks never said a thing, especially not amongst vampires.

So taken aback by Alexandra's arrival, yet pleased to no end, Shay coughed up a slightly strangled laugh.

Looking at Paul, she winked, then turned back to Alexandra.


"It's good to see you again Alexandra. Small world."

Smiling, she moved back a bit so Paul was directly in Alexandra's view.

"This is a friend of mine...Paul. Paul, this...unbelievably...is the Tacharan I was telling you about...Alexandra."

Now it was up to Paul to decide if he wanted to go with the introduction...or if. But for Shay, more importantly, she could stop thinking about babies again.

Noticing Shay stiffeling a laugh and the wink at the man Alex slightly raised an eyebrow, what was up with that?

"Yeah.. small world"

Looking the man up and down as Shay introduced him as Paul she extended a slender hand.. wait they were talking about her?

"Nice to meet you Paul and I hope it was all good things Shay told you about me"

Grinning at him she winked at Shay, Alex wasn't a bad person.. well as good as a vampire could get, as long as you were nice to her, she was nice back.. unless you happend to be human and she was very hungry.

Shay's news about her female parts made him want to shove his foot in his mouth. What a moron he had sounded like. Though it was good that she wasn't giving up her own way of life for a vampire who would undoubtly live past her.

Before he could think of the right words to say other than sorry there was more movement to be heard nearby. He listened careful but said nothing. Hopefully no one had found good old Tommys body just yet and called for help.

He was surprised when an attractive female came into view and even more surprised when she smiled and waved. Women on the warf, they must be itching to die in this damn city.


"It's good to see you again Alexandra. Small world."

Hadn't Shay been talking about a vampire woman with that name? She was a sight and she looked a little familiar but he couldn't place from where. Still he kept quiet while the two greeted each other.

"Nice to meet you Paul and I hope it was all good things Shay told you about me" Her voice reminded him that he still hadnt spoken. She had her hand out in a hand shake offerance. He extended his own and shook it firmly but not menacingly.

Hello, please to meet you. He smiled at her and he noticed at this time that Shay had stepped back a bit. Sly girl. And i assure you, nothing bad was said. She wanted to let you tell all those stories. He said jokingly.

Please excuse my brief silence there, I was trying to figure out why a beautiful woman would be out in these parts at this time of the night.
Alexandra 18 years ago
Holding onto Paul's hand a little longer then needed Alex just smiled at him as he spoke, he sure was cute.. pulling her hand back she took hold of her long braid that rested on her hip tossing it over her shoulder.

Please excuse my brief silence there, I was trying to figure out why a beautiful woman would be out in these parts at this time of the night.


Laughing softly at his question she looked around, yes the place was pretty umm unsafe if you were a human girl looking to get killed, but then she wasn't a human girl, but she wouldn't be telling him that just yet.

"I like the view and I needed somewhere quiet to think, you're not worried for my well being are you? cause maybe I should stay with you and Shay then.. who knows I might run into some people who try and hurt me.. and I am just a girl you know"

Winking at him she looked at Shay for a moment who had taken a few steps back, so miss Shay was paying match maker was she.. hmm interesting.

It was difficult now, to know what to do. They seemed to have hit it off somewhat, they were both adults, capable of getting to know each other, so did Shay need to remain?

"Would either of you like to go somewhere for coffee, or a drink?"

While it would be just as easy to keep talking where they were, and for Shay to come up with a reason to leave, she also thought it would be just as easy to plan to meet at a bar, or coffee shop, and just not show up. At least a bar or coffee shop would be a little more conducive to talking.

She also didn't think either Paul or Alexandra hadn't seen right through her intent now.

Feigning sleepiness, Shay stifled a yawn with her hand. Maybe 'they' would now tell her to go home and go to bed. She could always rely on the excuse of her 'humaness'.

"Would either of you like to go somewhere for coffee, or a drink?"

Crooking her head to the side as Shay sugessted getting something to drink she looked back at Paul, the night was still early, well it was for her and she didn't have anything better to do.. so why not.

Seeing Shay stifle a yawn behind her hand made her almost giggle, so she wanted to leave them alone did she, smirking she looked the other woman up and down.

"Tired my dear Shay? and sure I'm up for a cup of coffee.. or something stronger.. any sugestions?"

Looking back at Paul she wondered how well he knew the city, hopefully a bit better then she did as she was still fairly new to the place.
Panos Mehalitsenos 18 years ago
Shay was horrible at being sneaky but her effort was cute. He grinned at her suggestion.

Well theres fortunatly many place we can choose from. Looking for something equally as seedy and grimey as this wonderful warf or something more...humane.

Alexandra's voice sounded playful as she fiend sweetness about only being a girl. It sounded like a dare into her abilities. A pandoras box even.

He liked that.
Alexandra 18 years ago
Thinking for a moment about Paul's question she smiled, something quiet yet relaxing would be good, Alex wasn't in the mood for a loud club or busy cafe.

"How about something quiet and humane where we can enjoy a cup of coffee and talk?"

Turning to Shay she smiled at her friend, she was onto her wanting to give her and Paul some time alone but that was ok.

"Why don't you go home hun, you look tired, unless you want to join us for a cup of coffee?"

She wouldn't think Shay would come along, but if she wanted to she could, it would be nice to be amongst people of her own clan for a change, get to know them better and not feel as if she couldn't talk about personal things.
Shay 18 years ago
Though she had missed Paul, and was enjoying their time together, Shay had enough of friendship for now. She still had to make arrangements to go home, and talk to Alexi, and didn't feel her attitude now would be consummate towards fostering a possible 'friendship' between Alexandra and Paul.

Putting an arm around Paul, she pulled him towards her, until she could kiss his cheek.


"I think I will head for home now my friend. It was good seeing and talking to you again, but I've got arrangements to make. I promise I'll find you again when I get back though."

And after another hug, Shay turned to Alexandra.

"He's special to me..."

She hoped Alexandra understood her words, but just patted the other girls arm, as she turned, and walked back the way she came. She hoped 'Thomas' had sobered up, and left, but in case he hadn't Shay's path diverted her away from where the man had been. Right now, the less she knew about some things, the better she was.

Watching the interaction between Shay and Paul made Alex realize they had a special bond between them, seeing them hug and saying their goodbyes she stood there quiet for a moment until Shay turned to her.

Feeling her hand on her arm she smiled and nodded her head, she understood that the other woman asked her to be nice to her friend.

"Bye Shay, sleep tight"

Watching her walk away she turned to Paul, smiling she hooked her arm into his.

"So.. where too?"
Panos Mehalitsenos 18 years ago
Good luck Shay, I hope all goes well.

He watched as she walked off and hoped she would run into no troubles on her way back home.

Alexandra threaded her arm with his and he looked back at her and smiled.


To the strip would be a good place to start as any. I'm sure we will find many places open and accomidating. Sound good to you?

(ooc: Panos out pendin responses )
Alexandra 18 years ago
Smiling back at him Alex nodded, the strip sounded good, she had been there before and it seemed to be a fun place.

"Sure thing, lead the way kind sir"

Winking at him she laughed softly.

((ooc. Alexandra out, please lock thread))
