Burn...to Ashes...

[lissamarie]

:: The night sky seemed to sparkle up high within the heavens, slow lazy night clouds swirled and carried on into the breeze slowly to cover the slanting glow of the moon. The sound of the streets clouded the minds of all the innocent mortals and wracked at the minds of otherworldly beings. Like...me. The soft echo of heels against the concrete was her only sounding through the bustling crowds. However the woman couldn't care who stood before her, a mere twist of her legs and she was skittering off into the darker streets where the abandoned buildings stood before her. Waste of space..That’s what this is.

A sudden thought struck out in her mind, sending her digits to curl slipping into the small pocket of her deep blue jeans retrieving from the fabric a small gold lighter. A slight flicker of her wrist and the top reeled open like a puppy rolling over for it's master, striking her thumb over the reeling it sent a spark of flames. Sliding a cigarette from her other pocket into her mouth, she settled her hand under it letting the flames catch onto the top creating the cherry. Snapping the top back onto the metal she slid it back into her pocket, deep lavender hues shifting as she realized these streets were very quiet. However for Lissa she didn't care for such things she'd burn this place to the ground. . Rather to hell where it should be... Where I should be... Pulling the cigarette from her lips, she expelled a cloud of smoke into the warm air. The buzzing of the streets mere feet away and she couldn't care less what heard or saw her for all they knew she was some crackpot with her cigarette lost.

She laughed at this thought, sliding her cigarette against her lips for a last puff before skipping it into the small trail of gas laid before hand. Disturbed by the horizon's sun the day before she'd had to leave the scene without burning it all down..What a pity, but she was here to finish that now. What a bad habit, about time, I stopped wouldn't want to get cancer... Starting off down the street to a bench, her hand drew back as her cigarette skimmed the street's concrete a sudden engulfing the streets and empty building into a torrent of fire. Flames licked up the walls; smoke poured from the terrain in mere seconds, while she sat on the small wooden bench one leg crossed casually over the other as the smoke billowed into the sky. Lavender hues changing to a swift sliver blue sheen as a slow smile curled along her lips. How beautiful....the flames ripping at the sorrowful crime of abandoned buildings… "Burn for me...down to ashes..."

David had been following this girl for a while. He knew she was a vampire, and he needed a picture. He followed her all the way to the bench. He didn't even care about the burning building. He could have taken a picture, but his mind was focused on the vampire. All the years he had been searching for one, for just one photo. He couldn't explain how he knew she was one, but he did.

He was going to approach her. He sucked in a deep breath and walked to the bench. He sat down next to her "Hi beautiful. Nice night to go out searching for blood huh?" He then laughed, he still couldn't believe he was sitting this close to a vampire. "The suns nearly up, should you be out here now?"

A soft chuckle slid from her lips, she had known this mortal was following her but in truth had cared less. As beautiful as vampires were with their hours and oddly pale skin, it was really easy to pin point one, she was no exception. Soft blue hues narrowed on his male, a mortal no less. Unable to help the soft laughter that slipped from her lips as she heard his assuming words.

A drink for her was not the blood of mortals. It was normally a nice glass of red wine, her blood was often freely given by mortal lovers or simply hospital bagged blood. It was not her taste that much, but seeing how she disappeared months before she had to keep a sly cover from some of the vampires. Her powers need not be known.

Turning to face him she studied his form, he was indeed handsome and seemed smart not at all smart for approaching a vampiress alone however. Bowing her head in a half slant she rose to brush at her jeans her hand coming up to brush away the several small bits of ashes that clung to her black top. Her deep light blue hues shifted on him coming to rest on his face as she rose to her feet trailing down toward another street no longer interested in the building seeing how sirens rung in the air with any luck the mortal might stay and they'd lock him up for saying a vampire had done it. By vampire laws mortals weren't aloud to live if they sought to tell about their existence, but it was in his hands his own fate. "You are right David, it is late for me. I should make my way home." A soft laugh slipped from her lips, as her heels pounded into the concrete as she made her way down the street in silence. Her hands coming to rest deep in her pockets as she hummed the hymn of "Ashes, ashes they all fall down."

Turning she offered a smile with a soft giggle, "Oh, David if I wanted blood you could be a snack, but you are of no interest to me. Goodbye, dear." With that her heels continued down the street stepping onto the sidewalk as she turned the corner, the breeze coming to caress her dark black and brown colored tendrils against her cheek, her hues carefully changing to that of a mortal blue the sliver disappearing to hide deep in her pupils.
