"As I said before, my name is Weston. I'm a priest of sorts and yes, I have been following you. I'm not here to cause trouble. In fact, I thought it 'twas you in need of my service." His voice was clear. It was almost as if he were talking to them in a sunny park and none of this 'we are human'/'we are vampire' non-sense was going on. He held his book close to his body. "I was on my way to a contact," he said. He looked around. "I do not see that other vampire I was speaking to about peace. It seems that things got hazy when you ran Miss... Miss..." He had no name for her.

Weston raised an eyebrow at the human. "Yes, scent is important as is taste but I'm not really here to have one unless offered." He cleared his throat. "So there are no affections towards this woman?" Weston looked at Beyond. He took notice that he did indeed have a nice body. He did wonder how this vampire was going to take the human saying such things about him though.

((Secret, Tess is a serious girl with an attitude, she kills vampires - I wouldn't say she is mean to Beyond as much as I'd say she's just weary of him, Prince of England though, that was mean haha:)))

Alistar and Kasimir had stepped in between Tess and the new vampire who called himself Weston. Tess caught herself thinking about Kasimir and Beyond's bodies as Kasimir had spoken of theirs. Shaking her head back to reality, she listened as Weston explained his actions and Tess found herself staring at him blankly. What is it with this city? She had never met a vampire before who protected humans, or traveled with humans or who wanted peace with humans... yet now she stood with three. Maybe she had met vampires like these, she just never gave them the chance before now. Putting her knife away, but not letting her guard down in case this was a trick, she replied, "My name is Tess, I'm a vampire hunter and I don't know what your services are, but I don't need them." Thinking about the way Kasimir flirted with anyone he found to be attractive she nodded towards him, "He seems to be the one in need of servicing anyway."

Weston turned to Tess. "Greetings Tess," he bowed. So he was right about her. She did have the scent on her. "I'm a bit of a Shepard if you will. Perhaps you might need a man of 'holy' value. I do use the term lightly."

Alistair had arched a brow when Tessa made that remark about Kasimir needing 'servicing'. It took a bit of effort for the vampire to not chuckle at that. He cleared his throat lightly. "Forgive my friend..." He placed his hand on the top of Kasimir's head, like one might do to a puppy they have affection for. "He is often consumed by his desire to mate with everything that walks this earth." The way he said it, so serious, it caused Kasimir to look up at him and stick his tongue out. Alistair continued, glancing to Tessa once. "We hold no affections to Tessa or the other two. Well..Only the affections that come with friendship." His fingers combed through Kasimir's blond hair, and Alistair smirked at the slight blush on his friends face. Despite the thoughts that such actions might plant in others minds, Alistair and Kasimir were not lovers.

When Alistair had first placed his hand on Kasimir's head, the German beamed. Like a child being rewarded, then at Alistair's words he had turned his face up and stuck his tongue out at the slightly taller vampire. His green eyes quickly going to rest on Weston for a moment. When Alistair ran his fingers through his hair before removing his hand, Kasimir shivered lightly and blushed softly. Alistair was the only person he knew that could do things that weren't all that suggestive and make him blush. It was amazing. Kasimir snorted lightly. "I can't help it..." The grin on his lips told all that he wasn't really sorry about not being able to help it. Those eyes on Weston and he shrugged. "...'Servicing' might be fun..." He glanced at Tessa. "You sure you don't wanna be the one 'servicing' me?" He waggled his eyebrows at her, then pin Beyond with that suggestive look. "Oh..what about you? Wanna do some 'servicing'?" Really, the blonde German had no shame.

Michael smiled, nodding as he said, "Excellent! I assure you, you will find this to be a very lucrative arrangement. Let us begin planning tomorrow, name a place where we can meet and I'll divulge all the information I have on the five that confronted me tonight. From there we can plan how to draw them out and kill those who count themselves amongst our enemies. If you two will excuse me, I need to deal with this body and get some rest. God, I hate jet lag!" Michael chuckled as he took out a scrap of paper and jotted down his cell number before handing it to Brent, saying, "Call me with a time and place to meet, but before I depart, perhaps I could get your names?" He hefted the wrapped up beheaded body onto his shoulder and waited for an answer from one of the two.

Brent took the paper and nodded his head. "My name is Brent and this is Aiden," He looked up at the sky and smiled. "The best time for us would be when the sun is down of course. You can meet us down by the old church. Don't be late."

Tess rolled her eyes at Kasimir, he was impossible, though it was kind of funny. She chuckled, not something she did often, before a wave of exhaustion overcame her and her head began to spin. She quickly caught herself as her body made it's way towards the pavement. Sitting on the ground she held her head in her hands. Her breathing was shallow and her eye lids were heavy. Looking up at the group she wondered what the plan was, she needed sleep and wanted to get out of the middle of this dangerous darkness until the generators were repaired.

(I'm happy with Chesamai...)
Beyond watched everyone not very interested anymore. Until Tessa looked like she was about to hit the pavement that is. "What's wrong?" He took a few steps toward her and reached out stopping his hands mid way. He didn't think she liked him touching her so he drew his hands back. Was she sick or injured?

Chesamai turned to Kasimir with a scary glare. "Say that to my brother again and I'll make you a woman." She wasn't in a kidding mood. Tessa was enough to make her jealous. She didn't need a gay german.

Tess looked up at Beyond, "Yes I'm fine. I've been traveling for some time now, I'm just tired." Smiling when the young girl replied to Kasimir, she shook her head. This girl was a spitting image of her at that age. Her smile fading she realized she needed to get it together, gather the last of her strength and make sure that the two made it home safely, even if one of them was a vampire. Maybe I will rest for just a little while longer, she thought, eyes heavy.

Beyond stared at Tessa and noted everything he could. She was most definatly tired. "You can sleep if you want." He get closer and picked her up without her consent. If she was tired she shouldn't be forced to walk like the rest of them. "Are we going to go?" He looked at Tessa knowing that she would hit him at some point. "You can stay at our house for a little while and sleep."

Michael nodded and headed off with the body in tow, calling over his shoulder, "Until then comrades, have a good night." A little less than an hour later Michael came into his bedroom in the royal suite using that last of his strength to telekinetically fly up to the window. He let out a sigh as he dragged the body into the bathroom and began the process of thouroughly washing the body since he didn't feel like eating whatever filth and disease had been on the crazy homeless vampire. After an hour of just cleaning and recleaning he went back to his room and pulled out a carving knife and fork, thinking, Time to chow down for the Eye before it drains me anymore. God, I hate this, but it's necessary.

Tess' eyes had closed when she felt herself being lifted off of the ground. She frowned at Beyond, "I can take care of myself", she said, her voice trailing off and her head resting against his chest. She didn't care where she stayed, she couldn't hold her eyes open any longer. Thinking about her brother James, wondering how he would react if he saw her befriending vampires she fell into a deep sleep from her sheer exhaustion.

((Let's hope Tess isn't a snorer or drooler while she sleeps ;) haha))

(I'm sure Beyond still wouldn't care.)
Beyond held her up and started walking. The others could follow if they were serious about walking them home. He heard Chesamai call for him to wait up but didn't stop. She was next to him moments later anyway. He turned to looked at her when she giggled. "What are you giggling about?" She didn't answer him.

Chesamai watched her brother start walking and went after him. "Wait up, Brother!" She called as she hurridly ran after him. She caught up and looked at Tessa. She looked so helpless why she slept. Chesamai looked at the scene before her and giggled. A vampire hunter being carried by a vampire. How ironic.

When the others began to leave, Alistair didn't turn to follow them. Instead his attention remained on Weston. The man had been silent for a few minutes, and Alistair didn't quite trust this 'holy' man. The vampire glanced at Kasimir and spoke to him in German for a few moments. A stern look prevented the human from objecting. Kasimir turned and started after the others.

Kasimir had just grinned when Chesamai had threatened him earlier, it had been funny and cute. When the others started to leave, he had glanced uncertainly over his shoulder and then Alistair was telling him to follow them. With a soft sigh the human relented. His eyes sweeping over Weston once before he turned and dashed off after the others. Kasimir came up and slipped his arm through Chesamai's. Glancing at Beyond, though despite the many things that came to mind for him to say, he didn't say them. His green eyed gaze flickered to Chesamai's face. "Oh my..I do think you're prettier than he is..." His gaze traveled down and back up her body. "Hm..You look young though.." Kasimir's brow creased slightly. "How old are you?"

Chesamai held on to Kasimir's arm when he looped his with hers and get a bit closer. She was cold. When the genorators went out there was more fighting on the streets and it affected the temperature of her body. Why was unknown but it had something to do with the way she brought peace to fights. She shivered. "Of course I'm prettier then Beyond. Guys are handsome not pretty." The next question made her hesitate with an answer. It wasn't because she didn't want to tell the truth but if she told him her real (and very rude) answer she might loose her source of warmth. "My answer is rude and there for ask Beyond." "Don't drag me into it!"

"I don't know about that. I've seen some very pretty guys in my lifetime." His eyes sparkled as he watched her. Glad she hadn't pulled away from him, which he had half expected. She seemed kindof cold, he felt her shiver. Maybe that was why she hadn't pulled away? Kasimir didn't care about the reason, only the result. She held to his arm and he pulled her even closer. "Rude?" He grinned at her, glanced at Beyond and snickered a bit. "I don't think he wants to get involved. That's alright. I don't care how rude you are, you can't hurt my feelings or offend me." Rather suddenly he dipped his head and placed a gentle kiss on her cheek.

Chesamai twitched when he kissed her cheek. "Are you trying to get slapped Pervy Gay German?" She was normally so sweet but this guy really made her mad. She had never found someone who could make her mad before.

Beyond glared at Kasimir. "Stop hitting on my sister you pervert! She's 16!" He was pissed.

Kasimir blinked and grinned at both of them. "Hey now. I'm not gay. I'll like women and men. Why limit the choices. Pleasure is pleasure." He raised a brow at Beyond and just shrugged. "Sixteen is old enough. I wouldn't mess with her if she were younger than that though." Kasimir's green eyes were bright with amusement. "Though, I do prefer them to be a little older." He kept himself close to Chesamai, his arm in hers. "Besides, your brother already took away my date for the night. So one of you needs to make it up to me." He pouted slightly. It was true, sortof. He was going to try hard to get Tessa into his bed, but oh well. All of those plans had just been run over in the street with a steam roller. Though he hadn't really expected Tessa to take him up on such offer. There was always a small chance though. Kasimir gave a dramatic sigh.

(*giggle snort snicker* I love Chesamai's nickname for Kasimir. It's adorable! *giggle snort snicker*)
Chesamai was not amused by Kasimir but got as close as she could anyway. "You're lucky you're so warm." She was silent for a moment or two as she thought. "Pervy Bisexual German." She was not changing her nickname for him much. Only one fact of it had truly been changed. "How old are you? I bet you're old." She looked ahead and started to smile. Her spirits automatically lifted. "There is our house!" It was more of a mansion then a house but they had a big family.

Kasimir just grinned and shook his head a bit at that. Though when she said he was old, he had the grace to look very insulted. Dramatically, he raised a hand to his heart. "Oh, dear lady. Your words wound me. I'll have you know, I'm only 27 years old. I'm not old at all." He was pouting slightly as he lowered his hand, glancing over his shoulder once to see if Alistair had begun to follow them yet. He frowned when he didn't catch sight of the vampire. Though he brightened a bit when Chesamai pointed out her house...erh...mansion. Kasimir blinked and stared towards the building. His mind had switched gears instantly. He was a theif. He was certain there were lotsa valuables he could sneak off with in that large house. These people must be rich. "...Beautiful.." He murmered. For the moment, he'd forgotten Chesamai was touching him, so close to him, sharing bodyheat as they moved down the street towards the mansion.

"You can ask for our things. We don't hold dear anything of true high value." Chesamai said dully. In truth she didn't care. They had plenty of money and could replace everything if they wanted. Their most expensive valubles we're not their most treasured. Chesamai unlocked the door with her key and entered letting every one in.

Once Beyond was inside he went upstairs to his room and put Tessa in his bed, under the covers snuggly. Once he saw her sleeping however he ended up falling asleep next to her. He held on to her in her sleep since he was cold.

Kasimir had blinked, looking very startled for a moment. He recovered quickly though. That was right..one of them had mentioned mind reading earlier...But all thoughts of stealing any of their things had ran out the window when Chesamai had said what she said. Part of stealing, was all about the thrill...There was no thrill if someone willingly let you take it..though..That wasn't the only reason Kasimir stole. Far from it, actually. He stole, because it was an easy way to get money. Jobs seemed hard to get, he blamed the psycho vampires for that. He shook his head slightly. Also, something about someone just letting you have things, it put him off. It was too much like charity and Kasimir was not a charity case.

He had stepped in when Chesamai opened the door. Looking around and slipping away from her to go stand by the window. Watching the streets for Alistair's approach. Honestly, he hoped his vampire friend wasn't in any trouble.

Tess slowly opened her eyes, blinking and squinting through the dark she found herself in a bedroom. What the...? Looking over, the vampire who had been injured earlier was holding onto her. Her cheeks reddened as she slid away from his hold and out of the bed. He was kind to bring her here to rest, she was truely grateful and felt she owed him, but she couldn't be sleeping in a bed with a vampire, what would her brother say? What would anyone say!? A vampire hunter sleeping with a vampire?? She shook her head. Tess wondered where the others were, if they had come here too. Locating the bathroom Tess washed up. She needed a shower. Maybe she could find the young girl to make sure it was alright. She opened the door to the bedroom and peeked out, this house was enormous. Since she had been asleep when they arrived, she didn't know where to start to even find the exit, much less a person in this mansion. Slipping out the door quietly she closed it behind her. She had been tired, but the vampire was injured and would need a lot more rest than she had. Walking down the long hall she came to a set of stairs, walking down them she saw Kasimir standing in front of a large window. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him. Things were getting stranger and stranger in this city and it comforted her to be in the presence of another human, expecially one who had come to her rescue. Frowning at the thought, Although I could have handled it on my own... Tess made her way to where Kasimir stood, slipping quietly up beside him to see what he was watching.

"Slow down. I don't need you hurting yourself right now."

Jaz Yolen mentally rolled her eyes. He was always like this: worrying, fretting and overall just making life miserable for her. "Ah'm fine, Liam." The girl scowled and continued walking, smaking her brother's hand away from her shoulder. "You know Ah am." (Let me know if the accent gets annoying. I was suddenly thinking of Rogue from X-Men. :sweat:)

"We need to hurry. I don't want to be out here much longer." Liam frowned, his brown eyes flickering to the sky before scanning the streets about them for the hundredth time. His hackles were up, for sure (then again, there was hardly a time when they weren't). As protective as ever, Liam Yolen kept his attention split between watching for danger and watching his sister.
Despite Jasmine's complaints about his over-protective demeanor, Liam kept at it. She was better off protected than sorry she was never careful. They didn't need to lose anything else. Liam frowned and kept his hand on the silver blade at his hip. It had been his father's once - now it was a holy avenger; any vampire they came across was left in a pile of ash. The eldest Yolen child had become a vampire hunter after his parents were murdered by the creatures. Now he strove to keep both Jasmine and himself alive long enough to see the next sunrise.

Taking in a deep breath, Liam moved to walk beside his blind sister's elbow. Something was happening. Eyes narrowed, he took another look about the street . . . and met the gaze of Kasamir. Liam met his watchful gaze for a few moments before reaching out to direct Jaz toward him. Perhaps he has shelter for the night. The two siblings had been traveling through town for a while: they didn't live within city limits, had no money to trade for a room, and carried no valuables to trade for a night's stay. People were sympathetic, but they weren't that nice. Liam and Jaz had already tried a few other places in search of a place to stay.
As they approached, Liam's brown eyes were narrowed and wary. Even humans were a bit on the shady side sometimes. Not all darkness stemmed from vampires. "Do you have a spare room for the night?"

Chesamai looked at the boy and the girl who had knocked on their door and smiled. "By all means come in." She pushed a button on the side of the door and after a minute there was a maid. "We need rooms for four people." Of course she was making sure Kasimir and Tess had one if they wished to stay. The maid left and Chesamai let the two enter their home. Chesamai let them do as they pleased then and went to walk upstairs. When she saw Tess she smiled. "Oh you're awake. Do you need anything?"
