A Dangerous Sort of People (Anyone)
OoC: This is my first story, and I'm just trying to meet people as of right now. (I just joined recently) So I wanted to start with something "epic", and maybe make a few buddies. My character's information is here: Character List Thanks. =D
BiC: Nafien walked quietly up to the bar's double doors. He had smelled this town's aroma, and the noise of its everyday hustle downwind about a mile from here, and decided to get his supplies restocked and maybe find a place to rest for the night. He had been traveling for six days on an errand for his clan's Guild, headed towards a city northwest of here. He needed the rest, though, and besides, what would it hurt? He turned his head and heard music and loud, dunken voices coming from inside the tavern. The music had an old, antique feel to it, and the people sounded welcoming enough. But Nafien knew enough to know that their hospitality probably wouldn't apply to him. Nafien was a dark elf, and when people were confronted with his kind, they had a tendancy to react in fear and anger. Dark elves, or drow, were a largely feared race during ancient wars in ancient times. But many races, humans being the worst, were unnaccepting of the drow to this day. Hurriedly, Nafien drew his hood low, to hide his facial features, and any trace of his telltale skintone. Although he himself could not see it, others could. As he opened the door, he decided to make use of his lack of sight and "play the cripple". He staggered in, waving his walking stick as though it were a cane. He did not need it, of course, but it helped build an illusion all the same. He heard the shifting of bodies on leather barstools, and the akward quiet that seemed to hang near him when people knew of his blindness. He took his seat on a barstool near him, and waited for the bartender to address him. "You gonna order, or just take up a stool?" the large man asked Nafien, with a hint of venom in his voice. "We don't take kindly to hooded folk who come in here to do nothing at all." Nafien waited a beat, and replied. "I'm sorry, but I couldn't exactly read the 'choice drink' menu, now could I?" At hearing this, the bartender's face flushed a deep red. "I apologize, sir. I thought you might've had a favorite beverage." he said, hoping he didn't lose a potential customer. "How does a draft sound?" "That sounds good." Nafien said briskly. He didn't need any problems here. The two scimitars on his belt didn't need to spill any blood right now, especially here, especially because of him. He put his chin in his hand, and waited for the bartender to get his beer.

Nafien had the upper hand now. Ivan no longer had his armor or his large gun, the weapon he had called "spear". He was running away, Nafien could hear his foe's quick, heavy footsteps heading in the opposite direction. He smiled. Nafien loved it when enemies wanted to play tag.
Quickly, Nafien drew his other sword and brought it blazing to life. He then sprinted towards the windowsill and, putting his right foot on the wooden frame, leaped out into the night air. He somersaulted and shifted his legs so that they were first, and landed on the dry dirt road soundlessly. He could barely hear Ivan's footfalls, so he was already a good distance from Nafien. But Nafien didn't need to hear his feet when he could easily smell him. Ivan apparently had a bad habit of wearing far too much cologne, and the bright, alchol-based scent was strong in Nafien's nose. After he had followed the cologne for a short while, Nafien found Ivan. Or what was left of him. Using his "sight", Nafien made out a large rock, with thermal patterns matching those of blood, and shreds of cloth. The poor warrior was mauled by a bear, or some large animal, and thrown onto the rock to be devoured. As he examined the mess, Nafien caught the faint whisper of gunpowder, and remembered that Ivan had been carrying a "pestil", another one of the man's guns. He became curious, and wondered how it worked. Nafien found the gun lying on the ground to the left of the rock, surrounded by a metallic-tasting cloud of gunsmoke. He bent to pick the weapon up, and just as his hand touched the silver barrell, Nafien heard a sound like a whip cracking. He looked up in time to see a bent branch snap back up from where it had been set. Instantly, the four-foot circle of rope hidden on the ground tightened around Nafien's ankles, and he was picked up off his feet. "What in the Nine Hells?" Nafien managed to get out before he was upside down. In the confusion, he had dropped his blades, and the incantations wore off. He struggled for a moment, but knew it was futile. He had no spare knife, and the one he did have was in the heel of his boot. Nafien heard laughter coming from behind the large rock, and listened in fury to Ivan's voice taunt him. "You were really that dumb, drow?" Ivan laughed. "You really should've expected that." Nafien was in a pinch now. He had no weapons, and he was defenseless now that he was hung upside down above the ground. He had to either reason with Ivan, or be killed.

Ooc: I think I will join. I'm using my only character, Anahei link in sig. I warn you this is also my first battle.
Bic: Anahei walked along the dirt road heading towards the town. She needed some human blood to keep her going for next few days while she trained. She could see the town in the distance and started walking at a quicker pace. All of a sudden, she heard the sounds of a scuffle along the track. Anahei sensed danger and drew one of her swords. She crept along the road, making almost no sound. After a little bit more creeping, she saw the shadows of two men. One seemed to be hanging upside down. She could hear the cruel taunts of the other man and became angry. Anahei didn't like people who made fun of someone in a severe disadvantage. "STOP!" she cried The man whirled around and saw Anahei standing there, with a sword drawn and staring at him with a look of pure hatred across her face. "Who are you and what are you doing to this defenceless man?" she said The man laughed. "Who are you to decide what i do to my quarry?" he replied in a cruel voice. "My name is Anahei. I am a vampire ninja who has come to this town for blood. I hate people who take advantage of others like this and I demand you let that man go!" The man who had been hanging there said nothing through all of this and Anahei suspected he fell unconscious. "Really?" sneered the man " And what will you do if i refuse?" "You will die!" replied Anahei. She ran at the man with blindidng speed and all of a sudden she was on top of him with her drawn sword against his throat. The man quickly recovered from this attack and threw Anahei off of him. Anahei landed roughly on the ground, her sword a couple of metres from her reach. Before she had time to draw her second sword however, the man drew a gun and pointed it at Anahei. "You see little girl?" he taunted her "This is what happens to people who oppose Ivan!" Anahei had to think fast. Would she have to find a way of drawing her other sword without Ivan firing? Or would she try to dodge the bullet?

Anahei waited for Ivan to come out of the building. She got her sword back and now had five shuriken in her hand. She knew that the man would kill her if he got the chance. She wasn't going to let him have that chance.
All of a sudden she remembered the man who was still hanging upside down. She turned towards him and threw a shuriken at the rope. The shuriken met it's target and the man dropped to the ground. Anahei hoped he was okay. She then looked back at the building and saw Ivan walking out of it. She grasped her shuriken and threw them at the man. A loud grunt told her they met their target. She then ran over to him with a sword drawn and laughed. Ivan was pinned against the wall of the building. He couldn't move his arms or legs. Anahei then put her sword against his throat. She knew he was now helpless.

Nafien watched on as Ivan battled this new menace, the vampire. He recalled the stories his father had told him when he was young, of the malicious and wretched race of bloodthirsty monsters that had waged wars with the dark elves in ages long past. The vampires, filth descended from Romanian and Ottoman tribes that worshipped the old gods, the heathen-deities. Their kind was a plauge, and as such deserved only destruction.
Nafien was glad the wretch had been foolish enough to cut the rope he hung from. She would not see her killer, she would feel only his blades as they peirced her black heart. He quickly recovered his blades and summoned their elements. Then, swiftly and quietly, he crept behind her and prepared to run her through. Ivan, however, had other plans. "The drow, behind you!" he yelled, his voice triumphant. The creature turned around with uncanny speed, and blocked Nafien's attack with one of her blades. A look of shock played across her face, and she jumped backwards with the agility of a cat. "What are you doing?" she stammered. "I saved your life, and you try to end mine?" Nafien was quick to respond, hatred dripping from his words. "Still your tongue, demon, lest I remove it from your wretched mouth. You are a fool for not killing me where I hung. It may have saved your own life." Nafien gripped the hilts of his scimitars fiercely. He had wanted to reason with Ivan, to make an ally out of him, rather than fight. But now he had no such intentions. He would end this battle, along with their lives. OoC: I'm not trying to sound like I personally despise your character, Anahei. But as I develop my own character, I need him to have prejeduces and emotions relevant to him. I actually think your character sounds quite cool. So please, work with this, maybe in the future, Nafien can overcome his clan's superstitions. Thanks.

Nafien was no longer ready to talk about this. His movements were quick, cold, precise. Although his intent was to kill both of them, he focused the bulk of his attacks on the vampire. She would go first, he decided. He would kill her, in some slow, violent fashion, to show Ivan that the drow he hunted would not die. That this drow had power to bring far worse things to Ivan than merely death. The vampire would be killed traditionally, her head removed and the mouth filled with dirt. Then the body would be impaled. Such monsters had no place in decent graves alongside races of civility.
As he contemplated these things, Nafien lost focus, and was unable to completely dodge an attack from the vampire. Her left sword nicked against his cloak, and shred through with surprising ease. Nafien noted that the blade was cold as it hit his flesh and left a gash on him. The wound itself was nothing to worry over. Nafien quickly jumped backwards, vaulting on his hands as he did so. He then summoned a globe of darkness over his enemies, as to momentarily distact them. He knew it would only slightly inconvienience Ivan, but for the vampire, it could distract her long enough to go in for a kill. Hurriedly, Nafien rushed toward his enemies. He lifted Sparkszan, to sever the vampire's head, but was greeted by Ivan's hunting knife before he had a chance. The cold serrated steel of the blade plunged into Nafien's right shoulder, below his collarbone. Ivan pushed the knife in up to the hilt, and twisted it sharply. Nafien cried out in pain, and dropped both of his weapons. He fell to his knees, and clutched at the knife's hilt. Ivan jumped backward, grinning in triumph. He had done his part. The target was dead. Or would be soon. The vampire would kill Nafien, and attack Ivan. Then he could dispatch her, and possibly be in for a bonus for her death. As he clutched the knife, Nafien realized that the vampire's footsteps had stopped. He went to turn around and face her, still on his knees, but he could not. The dagger sent a wave of pain tearing through him, nearly rendering him unconscious. He heard the ring of metal against metal, as the vampire readied her blades in a cross-down "x". All Ivan saw was the vampire's swords slash together, and the drow dropped to the ground, a bright line of red along the back of his neck. She looked his motionless form for what seemed an eternity, and shifted her gaze up towards Ivan. He saw that her eyes were red, but not from hatred. Glistening tears ran down her face, and Ivan knew instantly that what she had done was not out of hate, but a deep misunderstanding. A lack of knowledge that had caused the losses of many lives over countless years. And had taken one more today. The two combatants stared at each other, each second feeling as though it were a lifetime. Ivan had a choice to make, and what happened now would be a test of not only his character, but of his humanity as well. OoC: Don't be all "whoah, he killed his own dude". I have a grand design here, and it involves a fanfic I'm writing about Nafien's trip to hell. I needed him to die somehow, and I couldn't think of better people to get the job done. =)

Ooc: sorry I haven't posted, i was on holiday!
Bic: Anahei stared at Ivan for a while, still feeling slight sorrow for the death of Nafien. Ivan was her only target so, she should have killed him right there. For a brief moment she saw his mouth flicker and due to her hearing, heard him say "now!" It took her a moment to realise but, she remembered he threw an object to the ground a little while ago. Instinctively, Anahei jumped, did a flip and landed a safe distance from the bomb, just as it exploded. Now she knew Ivan wanted to kill her, she drew all thoughts of Nafien from her mind and lanched herself at Ivan, swords flailing with the only feeling in her mind being hatred. Ooc: sorry it's short but I couldn't think of much to write.

Anahei dodged the bullets with ease. She had practiced dodging fast things and was very good at it. What she needed to look out for, however, was Ivan. From the look on his face, she knew that he was formualting a plan. She would just have to watch his moves carefully and stay on guard. Anahei tried a couple of quick sword swipes but Ivan dodged them, he then grabbed his gun and fired two shots. Anahei wasn't ready for this and the shots hot both of her arms, making her drop her swords. Ivan dove for them and threw them out of sight. Knowing that she was almost helpless, she grabbed four shuriken and threw them at Ivan with desperation. They hit with surprising precision and pinned Ivan against the wall. She walked up to him and kicked him, then went and grabbed her swords. She walked back to Ivan and held a sword against his throat. All she had to do was make one cut, and the fight was over.
