Samantha simply watched him as he ran out the door. Poor fool. He probably thought he could give her the slip.
Sam gave him a couple seconds headstart, then ran out the door, turned into an alley, and jumped 8 feet in the air. Her tawny-white wings unfolded, and she shoved against the air, heaving her up and away. After the initial loud flap, Sam was soaring above the buildings, over the street, silent as a shadow. She quickly caught up with Derek, tracking him with her eyes. She watched as he ditched his current route and ducked into a building. A pub, to be exact. The Moonlight Rose. Samantha's face transformed into a savage smile. Finally, a prey worthy of killing. A true hunt.
It's too bad, though, she reflected as she landed, folded in her wings and entered through a side door. He was kinda cute.

Derek looked at the girl who had come up. "Ah, thanks." he said. "I'm just um... waiting for someone." To leave he silently added, getting a tense feeling again. He walked by the bar, swiping the unopened beer of some guy already to drunk to realize it was missing, and flopped down on one of the plush couches near the dance floor. He stared up at the ceiling, watching the lights flash in time with the thumping music.

Sam slunk along the walls, surveying the club until she saw Derek, sitting on a beanbag with an unopened beer in his hands. Normally, she would wait until he got drunk, got out of there, and THEN kill him. But not tonight. Tonight was too important. Sam moved until she got behind him, and then sat on an elevated bench, where she had clear sight of Derek.
It would be simple. Sneak up behind him, slash the throat, knife in the head, or just knife in the throat. Or two knives to the sides of the head. So many choices.
No. Not tonight. Sam hadn't had prey like this in a long time. Tonight was special.
Tonight, Sam decided she would play with him.
Pulling a knife from her purse, (which she had all along) Sam took careful aim, drew back, and threw. The kunai spun through the air and sliced through the top of the beer can, spraying beer everywhere. The knife spun right on past and disappeared into the darkness. Sam immediately jumped down and melted into the crowd, heading for a different corner.

when 10 30 ish came nights shift was over and she wa free to fornocate if she wanted and the kitty boy was her target until Nights phone rang... "Moshi moshi?" "Night..." a voice and half of a conversation went on and her labtop pinged or whatever and she opened it to see a pick of th cute kitty boy.. "hmmm neko-chan is the target.. oh goody!" night purred to herself and headed for the boy when she saw the kunai... "great another..." she noticed who through it and realized what was going on kitty was an eraser target and birdy girl was gaining his trust or something earlier... "not before i get the kitty..." smirk and another purr.
Night walked over and sat just a little behind him and it didn't seem like he noticed just yet with as many people around but with him being an eraser her perfume/shampoos scent would eventually get to him because of how unique it was... roses and cherry blossms... her mothers recipe passed down (so she makes it herself) but night inched closer and started to rub the cute and fuzzy ears on the Neko-chan "Kawaii, Neko-chan..." she said in an endearing voice as she continued to rub them gently hoping to get a pur-fect reaction.
{notes} moshi mshi ~ hello (in an informal slang like way) neko ~ cat chan ~ suffix showing endearment; teasing; usually used for girls or very young/cute guys kunai ~ throwing knife kawaii ~ cute;adorable;etc.

Derek was about to open the beer in his hand, when a knife came flying out from nowhere and did the job for him, unfortunately also spilling the alcoholic beverage all over him. Now he was being hunted, reeked of beer and- "Kawaii neko-chan.." Whoa. Some strange chick was rubbing his ears now, his hood must have fallen back when he was running.
Not that this didn't feel great and all, but this wasn't exactly the time. "Uh I'm sorry," Derek said, hastily getting up from teh weird shaped sofa. "But I gotta go." He turned and ran into the crowd of people still lingering on the dance floor, and made his way toward the back exit, adrenaline flooding his veins and the strobe lights making him jumpy.

night was heading after him.. she felt the gaze of the birdy looking at him the to her noticing that night was going after him and probably wondering why? "Hey wait..." she some how managed to grab his jacket but only to be pulled a bit (cuz he was still moving ahead) and tripped over someone in the crowd and landed on him...
apparently when night tripped after grabbing the Neko-chans jacket he must've felt it and was probably turning around and was going to tell her to let go but as it would seem turning around right now was the worst for both of them...
as he turned she fell... and they were not only face to face... but mouth to mouth... no... this wasn't supposed to happen... this isn't what... no... no matter how many nos went through nights head it was enevidable... the collar was materializing around her neck... and worst her mind was telling her no but the kiss made her blush and it didn't help that the guy is cute...
(if you knew about some aspects night has in other words if you had read any threads night is in with fox, and James you'll understand this isn't a new aspect of hers if you read the thread never should have came an i don't want to look through those posts to try and find it)
(in other words when night gets kissed for the first time that kiss becomes a contract... night becomes the slave to whoever kissed or was kissed by her... at least until the master dies in which case the next person who kisses her etc.)

Derek felt someone grab his jacket, Crap it's her! he thought, turning to push Samantha off. The next thing he knew, he was on the floor lip=locked with some girl who wasn't Samantha.
He scrambled up, pushing the girl off him, and tried to start his brain working again. "Uh... sorry 'bout that." he said, tripping over himself to run out the door again.

Night touched her fingers to her lips. What...? she moved her fingers from her lips down to her neck... what...? she fingered the collar around her neck... what...? shakily she tried to get to her feet with shock and anxiety running like electrical currents through her body... when she stood up she found it hard to stay up and so she used the hand that wasn't on the collar to prop herself up against a table... What...? wait... if he is the birds target... worst my target... but now he's my...
after a few minutes of sorting things out in her mind she headed back toward the boy... When night reached the exit he wasn't anywhere in sight, so she went right for her bike and decided that flying would make things easier...

Derek was running out the back alley, and was back on the sidewalk, breathing the, well, not 'fresh' air, but the air of the city. He looked back, searching the dark shadows for any sign of pursuit. As he started walking back towards the bright neon lights, he started looking up, searching the sky to see if they were flying overhead.

(luckily night had landed before he started to look up or wasn't in the area that he was looking ^///^)
Night landed in the alley next to the one kitty boy was in and while he was looking up she was walking behind him...
"Look... don't run... i wanna talk... that's all..." night was catching her breathe...

"Good thinking, but wrong direction." The voice echoed into the night, even though Sam had barely even raised her voice above it's normal level. She appeared out of the darkness of an alley, not five feet away from him. The beer covered kunai was in her hand, glinting wickedly in the moonlight.
She smiled at him serenly. "You really do make for an entertaining chase. I haven't had a hunt this fun in a while. Most of my jobs are just killing off fat corporate bastards sitting in easy chairs."
"So, are you going to run?" She raised her knife till it was pointing at Derek. "Or are you going to fight me? Because you know something, Derek? You can run, and you most certainly can try to hide. But you'll fail. And I will get that bounty," she said, grinning. "It's almost better than the thrill of the hunt."
She glanced over at the disturbance to see another birdkid. "Oh, fun. Another to join the party."

Derek looked at the girl from the club, and looked back at Samantha. This wasn't what he was expecting to happen today. "Well, looks like I'll have to fight ya then, Spunk." he sighed, a mocking smile playing across his lips.
Silently cursing himself for not having at least a knife for him to use, Derek raised his fists, his muscles tense. "Let me ask you something first Spunk," he said, his voice cold and hard as steel. "why exactly am I your target?"

"Same reason you were my target..." Night leaned against the wall of a building and took out what at first would look like a cigarette but was actually a lollipop... she paused to wait for some reactions...

For an answer, Sam took out her phone. The screen lit up her face in a eerie sort of way. "Derek Henshaw," she read. "Escaped from the Eraser holding facility 3 months ago. Little training, no special skills. Half cat, Half human. Find and exterminate at all costs. Danger to society. Price: $5,000,000 if brought back."
She flipped the phone closed. "Somehow I doubt that an experiment with no training or skills is worth that amount of money. So you tell me, Derek. What is it that makes you so special? The most a birdkid will go for is half a mil. I got one that was priced up at 1 million. But here you are, with a five million dollar price tag on your head." She shook her head. "You tell me, Derek."

in a joking manor, hoping to lighten the mood whistled and continued with "Your owner has quite a reward for you being found and returned... " she looked him up and down..." don't blame them though..." she muttered looking away with a blush growing all over her face...

Derek laughed. "How am I supposed to know?" he scoffed, "Those idiots at the School weren't that bright, it's true I don't have much combat training, or any super abilities. But I do have one." he said, a wry Cheshire grin splitting his face. "I can show it to you, if you'll just sleep a while."
His power wasn't that amazing, and it wasn't lethal. The most trouble it could do is mess with your mind. But unless you were sleeping, he couldn't infiltrate your dreams, so it wasn't of much use. But, better to bluff when in a tight spot, maybe Spunk would leave him be.

"If I sleep?" Sam raised an eyebrow. "Well, I have a power I can use on you when you sleep, too. It's called strangling someone in their sleep. But since neither of are going to sleep anytime soon, I don't see a problem."
She gave a cold glance at the new arrival. "Move on, girlfriend. This doesn't concern you."
She looked back at Derek. "Tell you what," she said, drawing another knife out of her purse. "I'll give you a weapon. It's no fun if my prey can't fight back. Will that satisfy you?" She tossed the knife hilt first over to Derek. It landed and skittered over the ground to his feet.

Derek smirked, "Fine, but I won't go easy on you." he said, kicking the knife up int the air. Its blade glinted in the light as it spun up, Derek's hand flashing out to grab it by the hilt. He held it tight in his hand, and waiting for Sam's move.
"By the way, what was it you wanted to tell me?" he asked, looking over at the other girl, who had said she had something to speak to him about.

she was still looking away because of the blush but managed to tone it down to an unnoticable look and slowly looked at him "just don't get killed and i'll tell you..." she looked away...

"Right..." Sam muttered, glancing at Night for a moment. Then she started moving to the left, in a circle, out into the street. There were no cars in sight. "Let's start the party, then!"
Sam drew back her hand and flung the knife. The deadly kunai sliced past Derek's shoulder, and it would hit him if he didn't react.
