A Fresh Kill (Open)

Astareal laughed lightly. The Hand approached the drunk, quietly. The drunk, wide eyed, pulled out a shiny black thing. Astareal tilted her head to the side. "What the heck is that thing?" Before she could blink. a loud boom came from the shiny black thing. Taken aback, the woman fell onto her butt. "Why did it..." The drunk, Captain Jack Sparrow, took a few drunken steps forward, before drawing his long sword. "Defend yourself, smelly beast." Astareal raised a brow, and shook her head lightly. That was never going to work.

Akuma watched the strange drunk guy with disgust. Drunk people were so stupid and unattractive. He wondered how anyone put up with them. The demon offered his hand to help Astral up. This drunk was clearly not from around here, that was made clear by his odd weapon and clothing.

"Hey jerk face. Don't be running away from me. I still have a bone to pick with you. I know you gave them those fire things." Jade yelled at Jack. Coming out from behind some nearby trees. She wasn't really sure what she was doing. She had been on her way somewhere but then she saw the drunk fool. It had been a while but she still hadn't forgetting or forgave him, Lucien, and the rest for the stunt they pulled. The girl didn't even notice the other two people at first. She was busy planning the best way to go about beating the crap out of the pirate.

Honestly it's been nearly a month. Why not just let it go and save your energy for people who actually are trying to kill you? Hiowie grumbled in an annoyed manner. That girl needed some serious anger management. The wolf looked around and noticed the women and the guy. Something about them didn't seem right and the undead hand fighting with the pirate only confirmed this.

Akuma smiled when the blond elf showed up. Maybe this would be fun after all.

Astareal raised an eyebrow. That girl had shown up before. Who was she? And then it hit her. That was the elf that needed anger management classes. This made Astareal smirk, she took Akuma's hand and pulled herself up. The Hand looked away from the drunk, and over to the elf. It seemed to think for a moment before going after the elf instead. "It's funny how when you want someone to show up, they don't. But when you don't want them too, they do."

Jack qhirled around and looked at the elf for a moment. "I wasn't running, doll. I was stumbling. There is a difference." Jack said this whilst dramatically shaking hi finger at the blonde. Perhaps she could mind her own business next time? And not interupt the fun with fire?

The elf looked at the undead thing and and sent a water ball at it. Just her luck running into the crazy necromancer again. She half expected Lucien to show up since it seemed she was having a reunion with the people she hated."I can relate to that feeling." She said in an irritated tone commenting on Astreals remark. To Jack she just rolled her eyes and said. "it's the same thing, their both ways of trying to get away from someone."

Akuma watch the two argue. It would almost be fun just to watch the elf and the pirate go at it. Smiling to himself he went over to the elf and pulled her close. The demon wanted to see how she would react if he were to do the same thing he did with Astreal earlier. Sadly he didn't get the chance...

"You sick jerk! Get away from me you perv." Jade yelled and pushed the creepy white haired guy away from her before he kissed her. What was it that made her attract all the annoying stupid people. "You don't go up and kiss random people!"

The demon stood there and laughed. This was going to be the best.

Astareal put her hands on her hips and blew her hair out of her face, strutting up to Akuma and slapping him as hard as she could on his right cheek. "You are the definition of the slang term 'player'." Astareal turned around, bringing ehr dead with her. The Hand followed after quietly, silently, deadly. She wasn't going to leave, she was just going to put a difference between she and the demon.

Jack winced as the other one came up and smacked the man. he then proceeded to grinning. "Ouch." The man shook his head, remembering aoll the times that had happened to him.

(( Awesome i was waiting for someone to do that. ))

Akuma rubbed his right cheek. "Somebody is jealous." He said smiling. The reactions from both girls were better then expected. Although he didn't think Astreal would actually slap him. But he figured it was a small price to pay for the hilarious reactions. When the pain stopped he followed Astreal. "Your not having fun anymore?" He asked.

Jade practically laughed her head off when the necromancer slapped the white haired guy. She was planning on doing it herself but the lady beat her to it. Despite being creepy she was still a female and didn't like his play boy attitude either. Although she quickly got angry again when she saw that the man just laughed it of. How pathetic was that. She pointed at the man "You are really messed up. How can you just stand there and laugh. This isn't a game, we are seriously repulsed by you."

"I'm not jealous. You are just extremely disgusting. I'm sorry, but even really ignorant people do not just go around and share thier diseases that can spread by mouth." Astareal said this, back turned on Akuma. When he came back, however, she looked at him with a blank stare. "Fun is a word that is too commonly used. Fun can only be used under certain circumstances. So, to truthfully answer that question, no, I am not having fun." She had forgiven him for doing that to the elf, bbut she wasn't going to drop the subject that easily.

Jack rubbed the back of his neck. Then he went on to take a drink of his rum. "Well, I'm off now. I do believe that it is time to go and find a person to warm my bed tonight." Jack turned and walked away, seeminglly limping on his one leg. He was actually kind of hoping that the elf would folow. To be honest, fighting with her was extremely entertaining.

Akuma gave her a puzzled look when she mentioned diseases. He never really thought of where illness came from. The demon especially didn't think a harmless kiss could cause one. "Sorry i still fail to see what the problem is. It's a shame your not having fun because i am." It's not like he really liked either of them, and Astreal didn't seem to like him. So he didn't understand how him fooling around could bother them so much.

The elf ran over and kicked the pirate down. "Your worse then the white haired guy!" This was just another thing to add to her list of things she hated about people, especially men.

Akuma laughed at the pirate. "Your a moron. If say stuff like that around girls their never going to like you."

"Pirates are known for having positive PR, now are they?" Jack pushed Jade off of him and stood, grinning. It was actually rather fun to mess around with these people. The pirate turned and continued walking. "You know what they say about people tackling others, right?"

Astareal was curious. What did people say about tackling others? Frankly, she had never heard such a thing. Perhaps he was just saying that to keep them interested, but... "No, I do not know what they say about that. Do tell." Astareal matched the pirate's pace, even though she was around 100 feet away from him. Even there, she could smell the rum coming off him. It was rather disgusting. The Hand was following slowly behind Jack, waiting for furthur orders.

Akuma followed behind Astreal. He wondered what the pirate meant to. It was probably something dirty. Watching the pirates reaction he wondered if he actually liked the elf. Now that would be an odd sight to see. But the elf clearly didn't like the drunk guy.

Jade was about to ask what the pirate was talking about but decided not to. She probably wouldn't like the answer. The elf was almost at the point where she wanted to strangle the pirate. If Jack was going in the direction she thought he was.....well there was going to be one less person in the world. She went in the opposite direction of the others suddenly remembering where she was heading before running into the drunk. Jade couldn't handle anymore nut cases, she needed some sleep.

"Now you see, I've got you where I want you. If I tell you, you'll probably leave. If I don't you'll get angry. I always have loved the fiesty kind. A few smacks never hurt anyone." Jack grinned.

Astareal glared at the man, and the Dead Hand sped up. Soon he was only inches away from the man. The Hand grabbed at him, and the pirate ducked, still walking. That guy was full of surprises. After a few more seconds of that, the Hand latched onto Jack. Jack brought out his pistol again, and shot the thing in the head. Out of shcok, it stumbled backward. Jack turned around, grinning, and said... "You'll remember this as the day you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow." And then he took off running, fast as he could.

Astareal watched him run away. He was a complete idiot. The brunette looked at the Hand, and then at Akuma. "Maybe it would be fun to go to an Inn. Perhaps then no one will have shiny black things that blow holes in my poor babies skulls." Astareal talked about the Hand like it was a prized poodle or something. The Dead were fun creatures to toy with, so entertainment shouldn't be a problem.

Akuma raised his eyebrows at the strange drunk guy as he ran off. When Astreal suggested the inn he nodded. Perhaps he would find the two annoying elemental twins there. He found it a bit strange that the woman was so concerned about her dead things. After all she could just bring back more. The demon decided to follow the brunette around a little longer. She was interesting and had a warped mind similar to his. They both liked to toy with people, the only difference was that she played with the dead onces.

((Lol I love the connection. ))

Astareal nodded, and started off toward the inn. While walking, she rang Kibeth and sent the creature back into death. She was going to reenter and summon up a Mordicant. They were more fun to mess around with, and they were more predictable. They had a fully functioning brain, too, so it would be easier on everyone. "So, then. How much do you know about Necromancers and their work?" The woman was genuinely curious. She wanted to know how much other people knew about the dead. He sure had known how to kill them. Which wasn't nessecarily a good thing. But if others were still in the dark...

(( me too. ^_^ Their more alike then they want to believe. ))

The demon pondered the question for a moment. "Well we were only taught really the basics. Like what they can do, the signs and the various ways to kill the undead. As i'm sure you know since you are one, there is very few necromancers. And of those few even less manage to live the age you are at. Usually sorcerers who attempt to reach the feat of necromancy end up being over whelmed by the power of death and eventually die . So the most we were able to get as kids were things other demons learned by fighting with your kind." Akuma replied. It was one of the many mandatory classes demon children had to take. They all had to learn about the different races just in case they ever had to fight against them. He smiled to himself when he remembered all the time he spent trying to get out of those classes. It was a good thing he ended up sticking with the class, despite how boring it was.

"It's funny, because normally the kind of mind control crap you use doesn't work on them unless they still have independent thought. Or maybe you're more talented than you look. Or perhaps that one was an extremelyfresh and young spirit." Astareal was speaking about the hand that was killed when they had first met. The woman brushed her hair out of her face and looked at the Inn quietly. It was funny how quickly they had arrived. She stretched for a moment, before drawing her sword and Saraneth.

"Would you like to make yourself useful or do nothing?" Astareal had no doubt that he didn't know what she was talking about, which was a good thing.

Putting on a hurt look he said. "Now , now. Controlling people is just as much an art form as raising the dead. It takes a lot of skill and practice." Akuma smiled when they reached the inn and added. "Yes i am a lot more talented then people think. As for your question, i suppose that depends on your definition of useful is." The demon suspected there was something devious behind her question. He wondered what kind of drunk morons there would be in this inn.
