Kikio continued sprinting, thinking she was ahead. Everything was a blur to her as she ran, the lights falling into a never ending blackness. Looking back over her shoulder, she didn't see Koraris and she grinned proudly. Whipping around corners, she continued running and didn't slow even when the club came into view. Shifting as she ran, she let her eyes take in everything that was in front of her. All of a sudden, she collided with someone and toppled to the ground. The two rolled for a few seconds and then stopped.
When Kikio opened her eyes, she saw a familiar face and a soft feel of blond hair against her forehead. Their noses touched gently and their lips were only inches apart. Swallowing, she felt her eyes soften, and she knew what she wanted. Him. It just seemed to happen. Yes, she was ready to rip Akira to pieces because she was jealous of her. Yes, she liked Koraris, more than she should. Kikio had just been denying feelings before.

Koraris blinked in surprise as he felt a body collide with his...yet again. The moment their bare skin touched he felt an electric shock zap up his spin, and he knew instantly who it was. His arms formed a protective cage around her as they tumbled to the ground, making sure she was hardly jostled. His eyes were closed tight as he took the full force of the impact and he grunted slightly, but not loudly. Blinking his eyes opened he almost hissed - but stopped himself - when he saw how close she was. He wanted to lean in, and that was a bad thing, but he also couldn't just whip away.
He met her gaze and it shocked him, almost more than the electric current that flowed through him from where his nose and forehead touched hers. She was looking at him softly, the look in her eyes was so insanely...unexpected that he had to close his eyes again and make sure that he was awake before he could look at her again. He would probably regret it later, but at the moment he wasn't in complete control of his body, and his mind was still scrambling for the joke because obviously, this couldn't be happening, but he lifted his hand slowly and ran it through her metal hair tenderly, never once taking his eyes from hers. He had been about to lean in and kiss her, but just because she suddenly liked him, that didn't mean that she was ready for that yet.

Leaning foreward, Kikio let her cheek brush his and then she whispered in his ear. "Thanks for taking the fall." Slipping out from beneath him, she turned and walked towards the club, wondering what she was thinking. I can't... I can't I can't I can't. I'll only hurt myself in the end. she thought quickly. Closing her eyes, she showed the door open and walked in the crowd. Idiot. she hissed in her head, but she couldn't deny the feelings. She liked him. It was impossible to get around.
Getting a whiskey, she took the whole bottle and shoved the shot glass away. Taking a drink, she exhaled loudly, wincing as the alcohol burned her throat.

Sighing almost sadly he got to his feet, his claws pecked and scratched at the dirt on his clothes until it looked as if nothing had happened. He then ran his sharp nails through his hair making it look normal again before he walked into the club, as is. He didn't bother to change his appearance. It was normal here, although he seemed to be getting a lot of stares.....envious ones from the guys and....well..flirtatious stares from practically every single girl in the vicinity. He simply ignored them and walked through the crowd, moving lithly and gracefully. Not a single swaying body touched him, and not a single hair was out of place when he reached his destination. The closet door at the very back of the building. Pulling it open he was met with a angry growl and a tiny squeak. He looked in the door impassivly at two weres- who were in a very compromising situation. "Out." he said, there was no room for arguement. They got to their feet and rushed out, not even remembering to put on clothes. So, instead they ran..very ungracefully through the crowd, completely and totally naked. Rolling his eyes he walked in and grabbed the case in the farthest, darkest corner in the small room. Then he left the closet, closing the door behind him.
Seconds later he could be seen heading up the stairs, going to his privately owned, already paid for, room. It was where he went when he wanted to come to the club but wanted to be alone. After he was in he opened the case and pulled out his guitar before he played, letting the notes fly, and letting his fingers pick the familiar strings. Then he closed his eyes and waited, while playing. He didn't really want to go to the club anymore, and hopefully Kikio would have seen him go up. If she wanted him she could come get him, but if she was in danger or in trouble, he would easily hear that and be down before she could get hurt.

Kikio had already downed the whiskey and was stumbling all over the place. She had been clear around the bar, flirting, and now was in a cituation that wasn't to good. A guy was hitting on her and had her on his lap, kissing her neck. She remembered Koraris and she wanted to go find him. Trying to get up, she pushed against the man's chest but he wouldn't let go. Extending her claws, she scratched the side of his face and he yelped and let go.
Turning, she asked the bartender where Koraris was and he pointed upstairs. Walking slowly up the stairs, she got to the top and was about to knock when the man busted her across the back of the head with his fist. Kikio flew foreward, the side of her face cracking against the door before she richocheted[sp?] off of it, slammed against the wall, and barely caught herself on the railing. To dazed to fight back, the man grabbed hold of her and shoved her against the wall again, so rough that her head smashed against it again. His lips crushed hers, so hard that they busted and blood trickeled into her forced open mouth. Koraris... Help me...

Koraris heard someone come up the stairs, and he could smell Kikio's familiar scent. She must be ready to go.... he thought, opening his eyes. His fingers stopped strumming the strings when he did so, and a moment later he heard a loud crash. He felt physical pain and he knew that Kikio was being hurt...was hurting. Leaping up, his already long claws extended more and his blue eyes were bright, blazing; fire. A beyond mad snarl bubbled up from his chest and out of his throat, loud enough that whoever was outside the door would hear, but that man wouldn't have a chance to get away. Koraris wouldn't let him. Not after hurting Kikio.
He was so infuriated...so gone that he literally tore the door off its hinges and threw it back so hard that it went through the wall on the other side of the room. He was outside in less than a second with his clawed fist around the man's neck from behind so fast that it was like he had teleported there. "Don't you dare touch her, you bas.tard!!" he roared, the sound the most wild....dangerous he had uttered since he and Kikio had met. He yanked him away, crushing off the man's ability to breath as he did so. Whipping him around, so that the man's head slammed into the wall he then pulled him so the man could look him straight in the eyes, show him that the fires of hell weren't always red. Then suddenly his fist launched forward right into the dead center of the swines face so quickly that it wasn't even seen the only reason that it was known that he did it was from the lurch in his body and how the man was now unconscious and bleeding in several different gouges on his face and body. Looks like Koraris's claws had done more than just terrorize the guy. Then he pulled the arm back that held the man and threw him down the stairs into the crowd with a final 'Don't mess with me' growl.
Turning around, his flaming eyes turned soft as he looked at her and he appeared in front of her, cradling her to his chest. "Kikio?" he asked worriedly. "I won't let him hurt you again. I won't let anyone hurt you again." he whispered. His hand stroked her hair tenderly.

Kikio heard, but couldn't see what happened before her. She was to daze, to out of it to know. Suddenly, arms were around her and her face was against Koraris's chest. She heard his words and comfort rushed through her. Closing her eyes, she snuggled against him, taking in his warmth like it was a fire. "Thank... You..." she said slowly. Closing her eyes, she let her weight rest against him, not really meaning to though. Suddenly, she totally and completly blacked out from the rush of pain.

He felt her legs give out under her and he picked her up, fireman's style, holding her cradled to his chest. Walking back into the room he laid her down on the bed. Packed up his guitar and put it back in the closet, his own this time. Placed the door back on its hinges and picked her back up, carrying her in his arms again. Leaving the room he walked down the stairs nodded goodbye to the bartender, glared daggers at the fatally wounded man who had hurt Kikio - who wasn't being helped by anyone - and left the club.
Like that he ran, keeping her face tucked protectivly against him. He couldn't run full out like this because he couldn't fall to all fours, but he still got back to his house before five minutes had passed. When he got inside he went to the doctors wing of his mansion and had them fix her up. Once they had treated all her wounds, cuts, and injuries he took her into his arms again and carried her to his room. He was afraid to leave her alone. When they were back in his room he stuck the needle that the doctors had given him into her arms and injected her with a solution that was suppose to help ease the effects of a hangover. Then, throwing the needle away he laid her down gently on the bed before he sat next to her, not getting into the bed. He'd stay up tonight with her.

Kikio could hear, and sense everything around her. It was so agonizing to be trapped in blackness. She was moved from place to place, and injected with a lot of fluids. Finally, she found peace whenever she was laid on a bed, and was able to fall into a soft slumber.
The next morning when she woke, she woke fully. Opening her eyes, she saw Koraris sitting beside her, and light pouring in through an open window. Blinking she yawned and stretched, feeling as good as new. A sudden pain on the side of her face made her grunt. "Ow..." she mumbled, reaching up to touch a bruise on the side of her face.

Koraris smiled in joyous relief when he felt Kikio shift and wake. Turning his head he looked down to smile at her. "You look better." he said happily. When he saw her touch the bruise on the side of her face he sighed. "The healers couldn't fix that one, it was already turning purple when I got you here last night." he murmured. Turning his head he looked out the window again, looking at the bright landscape. He could hardly believe all that had happened yesterday.
The one thing Koraris was really nervous about was that Kikio had gotten drunk last night. Did she remember that she didn't hate him anymore? He was really afraid that she had. If she had, he wasn't sure what he would do. Reaching down as he turned to look at her, he brushed her hair out of her eyes, softly before looking away again afraid she'd reject him or something.

Kikio smiled softly and sat up, to where she was next to him. "Its ok. I don't mind." she said. Looking down, she bit her lip and the looked back up. Touching his cheek softly, she turned his head to where he was looking at her. Leaning foreward, she pressed her lips to his softly before standing up and leaving the room to go downstairs. As she reached the kitchen, she opened the French doors and continued walking to go down to a garden bench that was towards the middle to think about what she had just done.
Laying down on the bench, she closed her eyes and draped her arms over her face to block out the brightness of the sun. Let yourself fall. Whats it gonna hurt? Take risks again. Live your old life with him. her heart and her brain told her, and those were the only two things that she could really listen to.

Electricity flowed from the touch and it startled him, he hadn't been expecting it, but he didn't show that on the outside. She didn't....mind? he thought shocked. He looked down at her and saw it when it appeared in her eyes, what she was going to do. When her lips touched his felt...home. Yes, he had been right to fall for her. She was who he was meant to be with.
Smiling, he watched her with soft eyes as she left. Once she was gone he had to use all his will power not to get up and sing out loud or do a jig or something that would be embarrassing if she walked back in. He blushed slightly and then fell back against the pillow. "What a week." he murmurmed, closing his eyes.

Kikio sighed and opened her eyes. Sweat beaded her forehead and she knew the pool wasn't to far away. Standing up, she walked up to it and removed her clothes to where she was in her bikini again. Diving into the deep in, she felt the rush of cold water around her. Coming up on the other end, she breathed in and blinked the water off of her eyelashes.

Amber eyes stared angrily at Kikio. She knew what had just happened. She'd been watching them through the key hole in Koraris's door. How dare she kiss my boyfriend!!!! she thought acidicly. Her eyes started to blaze and shimmer like fire and the air around her rose. Taking a step towards the pool she went straight to the edge where Kikio was and spat at her. "Girl. I know what you did, and that is not okay...." she began and then she screamed, "How dare you kiss him?!"
Koraris jumped slightly when he heard a very familiar voice scream and he growled a low sound in his chest. Getting up from the bed he made his way slowly towards the pool. He knew that Kikio would be able to take care of herself, but Akira could control fire...she was dangerous when she was angry. Also he wanted to hear what was said, so he needed to be closer. Plus he wanted to talk to Arika after they were done, and then Kikio.

Kikio was slightly suprised when she heard Akira speak, and then scream at her. Her cold, ivory eyes narrowed and she pulled herself out of the pool. Already, signs of herself growing angry showed. A black diamond appeared in her eyes, showing that she was going to shift into something, but hadn't decided yet. "It doesn't concern you anyways if I did." Kikio hissed, her canine teeth lengthening a few centimeters and sharpening like daggers. Her nails lengthened to claws and grew more pointed. A battle would unleash before this was over, and Kikio knew what the outcome would be.
Like a cat about to finish off its prey, Kikio began to circle Akira, already feeling the heat from her power, she snickered. "Ah... So you control fire... What an interesting trait? I bet you wish you were as... hm... Whats the word? Ah... As hot as fire. Maybe then would you have at least a chance of getting Koraris to fall head over heels for you." Kikio hissed through clentched teeth. The water glistened off of her lean body, as she slinked around Akira on the balls of her feet. "Come on... Attack me... So I have an excuse to kick your sorry a.ss."
