Welcome to Gaia! ::

Calli smiled at Georg and watched as the human left the vampires. She frowned, though, when about a block away, she saw her approached by another one. Calli spoke asently to Georg, "I would like to meet your friends, but I'm afraid there's something I must attend to first. Excuse me." With that, she took off towards the pair, her hands stuffed in her jacket pockets.

Ariai watched in interest as Liek attached herself to Clifford, then starting spouting off conversation in rhyme. She was a funny vampiress, and always seemed to cheer her up when she talked like that. Her eyes turned to the young boy next to her, and she listened smpathetically as he whispered his tale. A bloodthirsty beast that resembled a human male? It couldn't have been a vampire, could it? She glanced at Clifford. If he found out that we were vampires, there would be no telling what his reaction would be...

Liek smiled at him in thanks before taking it and sipping it at first before taking bigger drinks. Her fangs were more prominant at the taste of blood on her tongue and they ached for the feel of skin beneith them but she skillfully ignored it. The glass was soon empty and her top lip was stained red from the drink. She looked towards the boy and watched him unblinking as she held the last of her drink on her tongue for the wonderful flavor. She swallowed it and looked at Clifford.

"I don't know how to to care for one so young. I thought you might Cliffy, that's why I brought him in such a hurry. Another drink would be nice, but instead my tea with my special spice. It would be familiar to him, the tea filled to the brim." She said talking of her special tea that was laced with blood... Well, it was made with blood as the water... but the tea leaves made it so dark one couldn't tell. She had now rearranged herself to where she was on Clifford's lap, her hat on the chair she had been occupying and her nest of hair held up was now visible and even more strands were falling from it down on her neck and back.

Calli approached the pair carefully. The strange vampire had a dark aura to him that raised the hairs on her neck. "Good evening, sir and lady," She said amiably as she caught up to him. She turned to the human. "I saw you talking to the people under the lamppost. My name is Calli. I'm rather new to the city and I was wondering if you could perhaps guide me to the nearest motel?" Calli didn't know this vampire, but something was desperately telling her to keep the girl away from him.

"Uh... I think I know the one he's talking about," Faith said thoughtfully as she pulled her wallet and a pen from her pocket. "I'll give you the address. Any cab can take you," the red haired woman added as she pulled out one of her business cards and scrawled the address down. SHe was not trying to advertise herself that time. Her business cards were the only paper she kept in her wallet aside from money. It was easier for her that way.

"I would take you but I live across the city and I really need to be going," Faith explained as she handed over the card. Nodding at both Deimos and Calli, she pushed her way passed them and headed down the street while shoving her wallet back into her pocket.

Clifford pursed his lips slightly as he thought about the situation. It was like dancing on the edge of a sword really. For some reason Clifford had no doubt that this lad had been an early victum of whoever was trying to disrupt their way of life...if not start an all out war with the humans. For one so young this boy would care very little who was good and who was bad, it only mattered that they were vampires and he would wish them dead unless they warmed him to themselves.

As the tea arrivied Clifford had it placed in front of the lad. "Drink that while it is still warm. It tasets bad when it gets cold." He then looked at his other companions. "I have no say in what these lovely ladies do or think but I beleive that I will help you...but...you must help me as well. What do you say to that? Nothing really extrem but you could say it would be a learning exseriance to both of us."

In the back of his mind Clifford knew that he would get attached to this youth just as he had gotten attached to Leik when she was first made. One thing Clifford was known for was being very protective of his children as he liked to call them. He went half mad when Leik had gotten taken from him and it took everything that the king and queen had to keep him from going on a rampage. Ariai had helped get his sanity back and even helped him liberate Leik again but the damage was done by then. He hugged the vampiress a little as she sat on his lap happy that at least she was there with him at the moment.

For a paranormal investigator, she was not the most observant woman in the world. She had lucked out when she discovered her love of the occult. She was more focused on getting home and digging through her freezer for a frozen dinner. She had skipped going out to save herself some extra cash. "Why can't I live somehwere where phenomenas are always happening?" she asked herself, sighing. "Some place that has a history of it! This city is duller than dirt!" As she said that, she kicked at some dirt on the ground.

Her aparment was five blocks away and she could see it in the distance. It was a soothing thought that she would soon be safe in her little aparment with a relatively decent meal and a good book. She would have opted for watching television had she had a television set. Alas, it was one of many luxuries she could not afford. 'I'm pathetic,' she thought depressedly.
