Nightfall: Chapter 3

(Anton)

Yes, really.

=I shake my head a bit=

How she managed for several centuries to track me down here is beyond me, though.

(S)
Well it's not like you've dyed your eyes and hair. That's a pretty easy give a way.

Dawn blushed.
"A...alright. And if you bite me, I will kill you. Comprende?"

(Anton)

=I smile=

That's most likely true.

=I sigh=

Shame I never raised her properly.

(Sofia)

I understand perfectly.

=I grin=

Come, let us have some fun, and the day is all ours.

Dawn smiles tentatively.
"I guess it is all ours. Heh. Lets go, then."

(S)
=i scan a nearby window of a clothing shop. I might need some more shirts=
Never too late to start.

(Anton)

At the danger of her throttling me...?

=I smile briefly=

I'll give it a shot.

(Sofia)

=I head to her motorcycle, lean into her ear and whisper=

So, you have any ideas on where we should go?

=I grin=

(S)
=i turn to look at him=
You're leech, for gods sake! You really think she could do ANYTHING to you?

(Anton)

She's a werewolf with a long memory and a short fuse...

=I sigh=

That's the only part that scares me. But I should be able to get her to see sense.

"I don't have a place you can go. Sorry. You'll have to decide." Dawn answered.

(Sofia)

=I smile=

There's always my apartment just down the block.

=I grin=

It should be good enough.

(S)
Why are you afraid? Only through the removal of a certain organ or you skin in the temperatures in the combustible range, you're immortal. If she goes furry, then just pull out the fine silver and keep her at bay.

"I trust I don't need to lay out any specific terms to this?" Dawn said. "Sounds fine. A warm bed is a warm bed, no?"

(Anton)

=I sigh=

This is my daughter we're talking about.

=I pinch the bridge of my nose=

But you're right there, Seln.

(Sofia)

Indeed.

=I smile=

No need to lay out any terms. We should be fine.

Dawn smiled, gunning the engine and heading into the NYC traffic.
"Good. I hate one night stands ending with bloodshed."

(Sofia)

=I grin briefly=

That we can both agree on.

=I once again nearly scream in delight=

Dawn follows Sofie's directions.
"You do this often? Pick up people and have one night stands?"

(S)
Messenger Rule 2. If you ever are going to be in danger, always make sure you have a way to defend yourself.

(Anton)

Helpful advice.

=I smile=

And why I keep myself armed.

(Sofie)

=I giggle slightly=

Not really. I've only done this one other time.

=I sigh=

And that time, heads rolled...literally.

"I like my head where it is. Got it?"

(Sofia)

Got it.

=I sigh=

He was acting like an ass, anyways.

(S)
Smart. Maybe I'll have competition after all.

=i smirk playfully=

(Anton)

=I smile=

Maybe, maybe not. You never know.

=I sigh=

I'll wait a bit, maybe when she's calmed down.

"Are we there yet?" Dawn asked.

(S)
=i nod=
Good call. Emotions tend to cloud judgement.
