Collab: Gruesome Twosome@Alistar Sabbath@Draku69, Jiang@Akayaofthemoon,Krotar@Sanity43217,Ash@Virani
After Alistar killed the two ninjas, he would just drop their corpses at his feet while shaking his head “Good form you two, if your opponent was anyone else you would have had better odds.” closing his eyes he says a silent prayer for the two ninjas he just killed. Looking around to see how the other ninjas were doing, until a female started to walk up to him and started saying, “I really wish you hadn't done that. Now I'm going to have to deal with you too when all I want to do is go home and wash the stench of ninja off me.”. Hearing this he sighs, “So you are mad at me for cleaning up a little bit of yalls' mess? Excuse fucking me for doing it the right way. Shit like this is why people always get hurt, you never finish the job. You see I don't let my enemies leave alive, you wanna know why? Because I don't want them to plan an attack and try to kill me. It’s such a fucking hassle to deal with you know.”.
Ash growled low in her throat, the sound very clearly not anything that could come from a human throat. She stalked closer to the man with the big mouth.
"First off, this isn't my mess. Second, none of the ninjas I put down are getting up anytime soon and third, who exactly is going to clean up your mess? What...do you plan on explaining this" She indicated the blood and bodies. "to the police? Or you just planning on killing them too?"
She was already turning to face the woman with the blades having heard her approach. She inclined her head respectfully. "Well met. Do excuse the mess." Her glare made it clear she included the leather clad figure in that last statement. She smiled a fierce, feral smile. "I was just about to clean house...unless you'd prefer to deal with it?" Her eyes held the man in leather’s gaze daring him to come at her. The smell of blood and the thrill of the hunt still sang in her veins.
She was angry at the unnecessary loss of life but the primal urges and power currently coursing through her made it difficult to really feel anything else.
Even as she waited for the man in leather to respond she could feel her nails becoming claws beneath her gauntlets.
Rex would have sat back against the edge of the table as a particularly bold heroine, clad in gold and green, approached his brother and began speaking rather casually to him.
That was actually rather peculiar to Rex, not the reaction most heroes had to unnecessary loss of life in his opinion, and if not for her comment about the stench of ninja, he would have mistaken her for their being here. That's just how at ease she came off to him.
He would continue stuffing his face with whatever random assortment of hors d'oeuvres were within reach before a second individual closed the distance between them and Alistar. His eyes would narrow instantly in suspicion as this masked individual approached his brother, two blades drawn at the ready. Despite this though, his sudden interest in the newest member of their welcoming party wasn't for fear of his brother's safety.
Nah.
It was more like he recognized that mask. And when she started to speak, it clicked.
He leapt from his lax position upon the table with a pointed finger in her direction,
"GREAT WHITE BUFFALO!", he shouted to Alistar through a spray of half chewed food and beverage.
Looking at the approaching figure Alistar would sense an old soul, but how can this be. Then he heard Rex yell “GREAT WHITE BUFFALO” with a full mouth. Shaking his head Alistar wonders how the hell they were raised by the same father. Then it hit him, bowing he said, “Why hello there the beautiful, elegant, fierce lady Jiang Shijian. My my my it's been awhile”, looking up at her he winks, “Time has been friendly to you darling. I must say it’s hard keeping my jaw from hitting the floor.”
She turned her head and attention away from the demons for a moment, planning to answer the masked heroine’s question about cleaning house when an unpleasantly worded and food garbled shout rang out causing her to pause, her eye physically twitching in her irritation. Twice, that was twice she had been insulted in some form which just added salt in the wounds that was her ruined evening. She snapped her focus back on the two before her, eyes narrowing and immediately locking onto Rex as her nose scrunched in slight disgust under her mask, her grip tightening on her weapons, her hackles practically raised, and about to rip him a new one (physically or otherwise) when Alistar’s movement pulled her gaze. She had only escaped these two for so long by being guarded or playing by her wits and she wasn’t about to change that now. While the two grated her nerves repeatedly over the many years she had walked this Earth, somehow always running into each other, at least Alistar was somewhat tolerable whereas Rex’s upfront abrasive personality was off putting in many ways but none more so than his mouth. If Alistar’s plan was to distract her from attacking his brother then at least he had succeeded.
”Save your flattery, Sabbath. I am in no mood to be trifled with and as I stated before, both of you are unwelcome here.”, Jiang stated, sounding relatively calm for someone still pissed with one of the two brothers and the other making her leery, never sure to handle the mix of respectful and polite flirtation. ”Everywhere this one…”, she said pointing one of her swords at Rex before continuing,…goes, death always follows, victims who’s poor souls are damned, lost, and twisted while their bodies are forced to return from the grave beyond which I usually have to take care of. If by some slim chance this has not already occurred and chaos is what you are both seeking, obviously that has passed and there is no need to continue in our presence. Begone from here or receive a kiss from my blades…”
Krotar was finishing up outside. Smashing the last two corpses together just as the police arrived. He pulled a cigarette from his jacket pocket and lit it with a snap of his fingers. Hooking his thumbs into his pants pockets, he calmly ascended the front steps into the Gala, as police pulled up beside up out front.
Kicking the door open, Krotar entered the room. “So…” He called out to all present. “Who’s the basic crotch socket that still finds it impressive to raise the dead.” He asked, his gaze drawn to the two in glorified fetish gear.
Rex would always enjoy the feeling of frustration and anger, Jiang's was even more enjoyable, but for her to acknowledge him or any of his accomplishments over the years absolutely filled him to the brim with giddiness!
Their relationship was so unique. He chased, she ran. She acted like his killer charms didn't faze her, but he knew it was just her acting coyly. That's just how things turned out over the many years of their deadly game of cat and mouse.
Oh how he yearned to feel her flesh against his, to acquaint himself with her scent; and not just through the faint tracks and trails of blood she left behind when eluding them either, to hear the steady throbbing of her carotid artery supplying her lovely face and neck with her equally amazing life force.
It hadn't always been this way though, he didn't always feel this way about her. No, no, no. He used to be filled with the worst type of hatred for her. He despised how she constantly escaped them. How she constantly made fools of them. And for how long. Oh the gods, how she stayed off their radar for so damn long he would never fucking know. It infuriated him. Hell, most believe she was the reason why he decided they were making the mortal plane their own. But his hatred eventually melted away into infatuation, his heart nearly beating from his chest anytime he caught her scent or laid eyes upon her. No matter the disguise. It confused him at first, then it became his drive. To the point of obsession. So much in fact that his mood would slowly become affected by her absence, causing him to wreak even more unnecessary havoc upon the world until their next encounter.
He allowed himself to be lost in the thoughts of his boyish-like crush before hearing a string of the most crudely put together insults that he had ever had the pleasure of hearing.
"Oye! Did this cock sleeve just call me basic?' Rex would laugh raucously as he turned towards the newest arrival, "Waaaaiiiiit a minute! YOU'RE THE HOOD ORNAMENT FROM EARLIER!!!!!" he'd burst out, breaking down into further hysterical laughter.
“Thank you for recognising me, though it’s not my fault people on the planet can’t drive.” Krotar said as most of his armor materialized around him. “Though I would have to agree you probably aren’t basic.” He paused. Thinking for a moment. “Seeing you, I would probably say discount or knock off.”
Rex's mirth would seemingly vanish, narrowing his eyes at Krotar and twisting his lip in annoyance, glancing over his shoulder at Jiang and the rest of the room before looking back to Krotar, "Well, eek barba durkel, lookie what we got here," he'd chuckle, though dryly, "on your way to a sci fi convention or did you think you'd try your hand at playing hero, kid? If so, you've been reading too many comic books. Now run along before you get hurt, you've got first place in the bag."
Krotar all but let out an audible laugh. “Oh, I’m not a hero.” He straightened up. Looking past Rex at the woman. Directing his next words to her, while still somehow responding to the demon. “Besides, I always make sure that I come second.” He said with a wink.
Rex looked to Jiang then back to Krotar, eyebrows raised, "Oh?" He'd scoff exaggeratedly, raising a closed hand to his mouth in the process, eyes wide and eyebrows raised in disbelief, "You mean you two??" He'd question, first pointing to Jiang then to Krotar with his other hand.
He'd begin to laugh, pondering whether to end this fool's life now or to wait and see where this was going, before registering what else the techno geek had said to him, "Wait a second, if you're no hero, what the fuck are you doing here?"
He looked the demon up and down. “Well, I may not be a hero, but that doesn’t mean I have to be a dick.” He said rather matter of factly. “Besides, undead are so, faux pas.”
“So, overdone. Next you’ll be pondering whether to end a ‘fool’ like me.” He said using air quotes around the word fool. “Please, I bet you’ve never had an original thought in your life.”
Rex would grin absentmindedly, only partially listening to the brazen words of this seemingly mortal, human male, oh what lives they chose to lead. These young, reckless, pathetic life forms… Perhaps it's what made killing them so fun. That and their cunning. The hero types were his favorite. A stubborn villain, even more so.
"Boy, when you've been around for as long as we have," He'd gesture to Jiang, Alistar, and himself, "any original," He'd mimic Krotar's air quotes at the word, "thought was more than likely thought of by one of us." His eyes would then begin to glow brighter with each of the words that followed, "And you know what, kid? You're dead on. Hammer on the head of the nail type of deal. I was pondering the thought. Guess you helped me come to my decision, though." He'd step forward from the spot he had rooted himself to upon his arrival, the shadows within the room seemingly darkening with his movement.
Ash was pissed. Was it too much to ask for one night, one! that didn't end a total disaster. All she wanted to do was go home, shower and go for a run but she didn't like the idea of leaving as things were. But then no one seemed to be paying her much attention anymore and she considered leaving them all to it.
She was considering her next move, which boiled down to a) Beat the shit out of the loudmouth in leather or b) leave them all to sort it out, when said loudmouth seemed to get serious. She narrowed her eyes as shadows seemed to gather around him as he took a step towards the man in the doorway.
She took a step forward and then hesitated as she caught a familiar scent. She'd noticed it earlier but had been too distracted to focus on it. But now...turning she lifted her face taking in deep breaths through her nose. Her mind automatically filtered through the myriad scents in the room. The rich coppery tang of blood, the musky odor of fear, and others that were unique even to her.
She focused on the familiar scent, one she had only recently discovered yet one that had appealed to her instantly. There! She fixed her eyes on a specific area wondering if he had somehow not made it out. But then she realized it was coming from one of the masked people in the room. Specifically the man in the blue and white suit.
She was walking towards him before she was fully aware of it.
It seemed she and Oberon had more in common than either of them had known.
She stopped near him and then hesitated realizing she hadn't really thought this through.
Krotar casually stepped forward. Clearly the beast he was speaking to was too dumb for words to have any effect. He so enjoyed witty banter, but speaking to this demon just lacked the nuanced competition. No worry backwards and forwards. Just this thing trying to prove it had the biggest dick in the room. So he moved to the side and walked up to the masked girl and winked. Walking straight past the demon without so much as acknowledging its existence. The defense systems in his NegaBands and armour were activated automatically. Ready to spring into action should any move be made against him.
Extending his hand for a handshake, he made to introduce himself to the woman. Sure wearing a mask and having two swords may be considered a red flag for most people, but Krotar had questionable taste in partners. “Good evening, mademoiselle.” Krotar said in the most charming voice he could muster.
The words spoken were enough of a warning sign, even without being able to see the demon's eyes from her current position and Jiang felt herself tense. The moment he moved from his spot towards their newest arrival to the scene, she slammed her weapons back into their sheaths ready to move towards the two in a determined stride while ignoring the darkness that was creeping in but before she could even move to execute her plan, she found herself taken back in a bit of shock. Not only had their newcomer breezed past one demon but placed himself in front of another just to make her acquaintance, which was quite impressive. She wasn’t sure if it was impressively stupid or impressively suave, probably a lot of both but it did make her nerves on edge either way. ”Evening, monsieur.”, she answered politely, placing her hand in his own while glancing over his shoulder at the pissed off faces.
"Pleased to meet you but un instant s'il vous plaît.”, Jiang added, not sure if he even understood French but she did use their connected hands to an advantage by using her super strength to pull him forward as she stepped to the side so he was now behind her as a defense. She had no doubt he had something else up his sleeve if he was this confident to turn his back on demons though she wasn’t sure whatever it was would be enough. Him being behind her gave her an extra ease and took an unknown factor out of the equation if only for a second. She slowly glided forward with a sway in her step, sliding her mask up to rest on top of her head and revealing her true face for the first time in a while but it was the easiest way to get close to her target. A flirtatious smile played on her lips, her silver eyes hooded, not speaking a single word just yet as her fingertips reached out to tease along the hem of his pants before resting on his hip while leaning in close.
”Alistar…”, Jiang purred as her other hand gently slid up his chest. ”It seems our conversation was rudely interrupted but…”, she stated as her hand reached his shoulder while she continued to speak, her melodious tone lowering even further, ”now, that you have my undivided attention, could you do me the smallest favor?” Jiang raised up so she was just a breath away and whispered, ”Deal with your brother.”, and with that said, her eyes narrowed, her smile fell, and her grip on both his hip and shoulder tightened as she got a better hold so she could lift him up with her enhanced strength. Once she had the upper hand, Jiang quickly tossed Alistar with as much force as she could in that moment of surprise directly at Rex. She had no idea how much help it would be but at least it would give some space between the demon pair and them for an escape or for a fight. She doubted it would be long now before the police would come in and add a whole other level of chaos to this mess. She rolled her shoulders, flicking her long hair behind her once more before glancing over her shoulder, ”Apologies, I don’t believe I got your name. Either way, I suggest we vacate the area. This won’t end well for anyone.”
