[IC] The American Dream

[Khat]

She sighed as she stood outside the bank. There was a huge queu as she peered through the doors, tucking her dyed white hair behind her ear as she looked over the top of her aviator sunglasses. 'Maybe I'll just...come back later...' She gave another sigh before she looked inside her purse which was clutched in her hands. She had enough to last her for today but she was wanting to go buy some more Special Effects make-up,she was running low, especially on the liquid latex. 'Well, I'll just get it tomorrow...'.

Aurora stood and looked down the street as she put her purse back into her bag. She tossed it over her shoulder and began walking. It was her day off today and she WAS going to shop, but she needed to draw out some money first. She didn't really believe in paying on her card for everything, she knew shed end up over buying if she did that, so if she drew it out and had it physically with her, once the purse was empty, that was it.

She looked at her phone for the time only 11am and she had the rest of the day to go yet. 'Maybe I'll call Tara and see if she wants to hang out...better yet I'll walk over now, she should be free, she's always free'. She smiled to herself as she enjoyed the sunshine as she steadily headed in the direction of her friends house.

Jak took a deep breath. He flipped through the messages on his phone as he waited to make his move. He never enjoyed this. There was always risk. There was always a lot of variables. It was too difficult to calculate exactly what was going to happen. He didn't have a choice. This had to happen.... now.

He caught a glance of a beautiful young girl with striking white hair. He quickly pulled up the pictures in his phone. Just to make sure. That was her. He got up from his park bench, pulled his hood up over his head and began walking in the direction of the bank. As he expected, things didn't go as planned.

She paused, and then turned to walk up the street. He had no choice but to abandon his spot and return to his vehicle. He hurried over to his black Jeep Wrangler, and tried to pick up which direction she went. It didn't talk long to find her again thankfully, as she stood out a bit from a crowd. He raced ahead of her, and began scoping the area.

There was a decent amount of houses and businesses. Plenty of people. This may not be easy. He picked a parking spot along side the road he had seen her walking down and waited, hoping she came that way.

She smiled happily to herself as she took a slow stroll down the streets of the city. She loved this place. It was so fun and bright and warm... Not like England, sure it had warm days, but everyone knows British weather is shitty 99% of the time. Wind, rain, clouds. Nothing like LA.

Her smile faded a little as she thought of home. She did miss it, but it was too toxic for her to be around her family. They were lovely people to her. However, how they earned their living was something she couldn't agree on. She went for the more, honest living approach. She loved her family dearly and missed them every day, but she just couldn't deal with how they earned.

She turned a corner as she made her way to the end of the street. She saw a couple of guys checking her out and she smirked a little and winked at them. As she stood out a bit she wasn't unaware of attention she got from strangers. She also kinda enjoyed it a little too.

He reached over his shoulder to the bag seat and grabbed a small black bag, pulling it up to his lap and opening up. He had to make this quiet, and quick. So many choices, but he didn't want to actually hurt her.

He looked up just in time to catch another glimpse of her walking up in his direction. He watched as she carelessly flirted with some guys nearby. Maybe that was his in. He got out of his vehicle, opening up the trunk and shuffling through some things to make room. As she closed in to about 20 yards away, he turned and set the wheels of his plan in motion. In a loud voice he yelled out in her direction...

"Wow!"

[Khat]

She was playing on her phone as she heard a 'wow' from another guy. Smirking she looked and her jaw dropped slightly. 'Dayum...He's delisiouso!' was her only thought. She wasn't used to being hit on by a guy that looked like that. Usually just 'Players' and 'Fuckboys'. She generally didn't usually make conversation with them either apart from maybe giving them a 'thanks' or a wink or both if she was feeling it.

Aurora put her phone in her pocket as she continued to walk closer to the very attractive human being. She smiled sweetly at him as she stood a few feet away from him. "Wow to you too, sir." She smirked as she looked him up and down a little. He was gorgeous!

[Shadowpenguin07]

Maybe this would be easier than he thought. He didn't expect her to be quite so forward. As she looked him up and down, it was obvious the attraction was mutual. Even her accent was attractive; Smooth and sensual, with just the right amount of flare. Too bad they couldn't have met on different terms.

Jak casually adjusted his jacket and put his hand in his pocket. "How about I take you for a drink? We get to know each other a bit?" He just had to get her in the car. The rest would be easy. The rest... would be fun.

[Khat]

Aurora smirked at the offer for a drink. Any other time she would have taken that offer as she thought he was quite delicious. However, her father has taught her better than to get into strangers cars. She smiled softly at him and shook her head slightly. "I'm afraid my friend is expecting me, maybe another time?" She questioned smiling still. "I can give you my number if you like? Maybe some other time we can meet up some where?" She asked, a little gleam of mischief in her eyes.

[Shadowpenguin07]

A little hitch, but nothing he wasn't ready for. Jak reached into his trunk and pulled out a small taser. Not enough to do any real damage, just enough to give him the second he needed. "Come on now. We're both here. There's no time like the present. He reached out, grabbing her by the arm, and pushing the taser into her ribs.

His next move was to quickly toss her into the trunk. He slammed the door down before she could react, and hurried around to the driver side door. As he did, he realized a few of the guys that had whistled at her before were headed his direction. He needed to leave. He quickly sped away the opposite direction of where she was walking, and planned his next move.

[Khat]

She frowned slightly as he grabbed hold of her arm. Not something she was expecting. All of a sudden her legs went weak as she felt a pain in her ribs. She went down like a ton of bricks. Next thing she knew she was being shoved into the trunk of a car. Still dazed, confused and a little panicked she started screaming for help and kicking the inside of the car. Hopefully, if she made enough noise he'd be pulled over and she'd be found.
