Intersecting West Main to the west, traffic flows heavily through this busy Beacon Harbor street. This street is lined with businesses and services related buildings on both sides. The famed Lighthouse Hospital is located along the north side of the street, its emergency room has one of the best trauma units in the country, and is often quite busy. Constructed of steel and black glass, the monolithic Beacon Harbor Police Headquarters is two blocks west of the hospital and on the other side of the street. At night, the streets are only a touch quieter than the day, as neither of these places close. Other businesses, wedged between the hospital and police, do quite well thanks to the high volume traffic. Northgate Avenue intersects Pilot to the west of the police headquarters and leads into the heart of Chinatown. ****************************************************************************** Today's Weather: The air is moist and wet, as a rain stings the ground as it falls. The sun is entirely obscurred by the clouds overhead, with the sky remaining a dull grey behind them. A small breeze wisps down the streets, forming a thin, crispy layer of ice on the ground. ****************************************************************************** An unmarked door on Pilot Street opens on squeaky hinges, and a turbaned man walks out backwards, waving to someone. The door closes and he starts to trudge down the street, obviously not to any particular place. From the illuminated doors of Lighthouse Hospital emerges a young lad walks into the streets holdings something to his chest underneath his shirt. He looks left and right and continues down the street in the direction of Blue Raja. There are few people and vehicles out this time of night, but still the boy looks nervous, and eyes Blue Raja carefully as he gets closer to him... Blue Raja is watching his step, because it's pretty darn icy right now. One misplaced step and... oops. He steps on a puddle of ice and goes skidding towards Sinn, pinwheeling his arms and trying to catch his balance. Sinn attempts to be lightfooted and dodge the oncomming turban-wearing man, but his gangly build combined with his attempt to hold something is a deadly combination. He bangs heads with Blue and trips over his own legs, dropping onto the street several plastic medical bags filled with blood..... Blue Raja stops skidding, but, dang, doesn't it hurt to stop. He falls the other way now, landing hard his back and knocking the wind out of himself for the fiftieth time. Luckily, his fall is broken by a bag, which unfortunatly pops, and... well, water-balloon effects. Sinn's eyes widen as he hears the sound of a night's hard work spill into the storm drain. He leaps to his feet and shoves Blue Raja as hard as a 16 year old skinny goth can to see the damage done. Blue Raja was already halfway to his feet when he's shoved back down. He knows that it's Furious' job, but he's starting to get pretty peeved. Sinn clenches his fists, it is not very often that he will get angry, but damnit he NEEDED that blood. He takes a few deep breaths and tries to calm down. The rest of the blood will do him no good if he gets angry and does something crazy and stupid. He mixes the blood with some slush and washes it from the street, leaving no evidence. As well he folds up the purged plastic and puts it in his pocket. A simple "Stupid Shithead" is all that is heard from him as he gathers the other bags... Blue Raja watches in astonishment as this kid just totally ignores him in favor for... whatever it is that just popped. He struggles back to his feet and stands over an unpopped bag, ready to ask this punk what he's up to. Sinn makes no aknowledgement of Blue Raja except to roll an eyeball upward to see that he's still there. Each bag is gathered up and the "punk's" arms are full once again, the boy walks towards the middle of the street. If his arms weren't full he'd probably flip off the stranger. Blue Raja, hands on his hips, shakes his head. That kid couldn't have been older than... well, seventeen, he guesses, and what the fork is he doing with all these bags? And what are they full of? He quickly runs to a puddle of light under a street lamp, skidding a and sliding a bit, and looks at the back of cape, which is soaked with the stuff. He almost screams... its... it's.... "Blood!" he mumbles to himself. What is the kid doing with BLOOD? He whirls around to watch what happens. Sinn finally reaches a manhole in the center of the street. He squints a bit under the streetlight, but goes about his business.The bags are promptly put down again, carefully. The manhole cover is removed with some amount of difficulty, but is slid to the side. Each bag of blood is dropped into the sewer carefully. After all the bags are in the boy leaps into the sewer and does not emerge until about a minute later. Now he stares directly at the turbaned man, accusingly. Blue Raja gapes as the kid does all this. "Well, now, that's no place for AB-" he thinks out loud. He stays in his puddle of light, though, so he can see better if there's any ice around him. Now as the kid stares at him, he stares back, wondering. Sinn shakes his head as he strides forward towards Blue Raja. An index finger is thrown out, indicating that Bluey should be feeling some degree of guilt for what he did. "You are very lucky asshole, any other night and you'd be in serious trouble." flies out of the kid's mouth as each step brings him closer to Blue. Blue Raja's eyes grow wide. What horrendous language! He backs up a few steps, his hands silently going behind his cape. There is a slight flash of silver as he takes out two forks, one in each hand. He doesn't raise them right away, waiting to see if the kid is just a belligerant little creep or if he means business. Sinn gets closer and closer to the sidewalk, "You may not be aware of this, but at this hour its not advisable for freaks in their pajamas to be prancing about pissing off the likes of me! Here listen!" The boy pauses for a moment, nothing happens, complete silence, he then continues forward, "You wanna know why there are never animals or bugs around here at this time of night? You're lookin at him!" Blue Raja raises a quite amused eyebrow. Roy and this guy could exchange witticisms for hours if they ever got the chance. He looks calmly at the advancing kid. Well, he LOOKS like he's looking calmly at the advancing kid. Inside his head, wheels are turning and Raja is summing up the situation. Okay, kid with bags of blood. Kid with bags of blood in sewer. Kid with bags of blood in sewer and seeming pretty ticked off right now. Okay, he has a fair grasp on the situation now. He'll wait for the blood kid to make the first move. Sinn finally gets face to face with Raja and really puts his face in there. He in fact slightly butts his head on Raja as he shoves him backwards, "However, it doesn't seem you want to move on at this point. Why aren't ya leavin? Gonna be a hero? Gonna save the day?" He puts his finger square in the center of Bluey's chest and presses hard, "Huh?" Blue Raja winces. Okay. That poke really hurt. That's a good enough first move for now. He narrows his eyes at Sinn and advances a little. "And what if I DO?" he asks in a really overdone British accent. "What if I do try to save the day? Is there a reason I should try to?" His forks are ready, but he's too close to do anything with them just yet. Sinn lets a wry smile creep across his face, this guy is easy to antagonize, he can see the hate of evil within him, "Aren't you one of those "heros" who go around saving the day and who dispise evil?" He is getting more riled than usual and he sets a glare into Raja, the glare of a million tortured souls... Blue Raja gives Sinn a very uncharacteristic sneer. "Maybe I am." he says forcefully. Sinn's not the only one who can see people's eyes. Raja looks him right in the eyes, just to be a bit startled to see so much hate in such a young person. His eyebrows go up in surprise, and he takes a step back. "Geez." he mutters under his breath. Sinn shoots his hand forward, grabbing for Blue's neck, trying to pin him against the building, "Then you are not better than I." Blue Raja gasps, his hands also going to his throat, trying to block Sinn and still holding forks. Too late! Sinn has him by the neck, but he manages to hold himself away from the wall. He's going to have to save his breath, and knows he can't afford to get it knocked out of him now. Instead of clawing frantically at Sinn, Raja attempts to jab Sinn's hands with his forks. Sinn doesn't stop with his grip on Raja, despite the forks digging into him. It is as if he doesn't even notice them. He only turns his head once the forks begin scraping against his hand bones creating friction. However, despite this gouging, there is absolutely no blood or fluid from the wound. An even more wry smile stretches itself across Sinn's face, "Hungry are we?" Blue Raja starts to gag a bit and on a sudden impulse lets himself drop to the ground. If he does it quickly enough, he might just surprise Sinn into letting him go. Sinn leaps back quickly letting Blue drop to the ground. He then for some reason pats himself down quickly and nervously. "Shit." Blue Raja sits on the icy ground for a moment, shaking and breathing heavily. He looks up at Sinn and staggers to his feet once again, his eyes wide. "What... What?" he doesn't even have enough sense to finish his own question, let alone ask it. He shoves the dinner forks back into their secret pockets and finds instead a grapefruit spoon and a dessert fork. Sinn relaxes a bit, "You live, you were playing possum to get away. Interesting." He advances on Bluey once again, pointing, "I warn you now because I never like to insue an unfair fight on one so helpless and unaware such as youself. You don't want to prod the dark side of the sewer..." Blue Raja weilds his spoon defensively. "Dark side of the sewer?" he asks increduously, "Is /that/ who you are?" interesting. TERRIBLY interesting... and dangerous, too, it seems. He looks Sinn over again, aiming carefully before flicking the dessert fork at Sinn's arm. Sinn watches as the fork sails from Blue's arm, through the night air, and right through Sinn's arm, sticking out the other side. He tries to move the arm, but it seems the fork has severed some muscle that is essential for upward movement. He rips the fork from his flesh with his free hand and watches his other arm dangle. He throws the fork back to Blue and says very simply, "Have it your way hero." Sinn's eyes roll into the back of his head and his flesh suddenly explodes out and dissapears in a flash of smoke, from where the boy once was, a great black demon takes his place. (desc change) Blue Raja throws himself backwards into the wall, shaking uncontrollably. He squeaks, not having the lungful of air needed to scream. "Oh my. Oh my ohmy ohmy!" he stutters, vivibly stunned and a bit disgusted. he drops the spoon an searches through his pockets for forks. Well, no shortage of THAT. He selects quickly, and holds his cocktail fork cocked and loaded. "D-d-don't come any ne-ne-nearer, or..." aw dang, is a fork really going to be a match for this guy? This demonic figure stands at 7 feet tall, hunched over. His skin is coarse and black. His flesh ripples, but is firm like muscle. His eyes glow fire red and his head is almost arrow shaped to fit his long jaw filled with sharp, jagged teeth. His red tongue dangles from the side of his jaw, much like venom, and he drools slightly. As one moves down his form, you notice this legs are constantly bent. Combined with his hunching over, and bent legs he could probably stand 9 feet tall, but it doesn't look like he would while his hands have long thick claws for slashing and impaling. Simply a hell-sent killing machine. This transformation cannot simply be a threat, Sinn was avoiding it. The entire purpose of his blood-raid was to prevent this, but no matter. He takes a 20 ft. leaps forward and stands 5 feet from Raja, drooling and flicking his tounge, "Suffer!" Blue Raja suffers, all right. He suffers out of his mind. What did he do to deserve this? Ohgodinheaven what the hell is it? Raja stares up at the beast, poking himself on his fork to make sure he's not having another one of those terrible, horrible nightmares. Guess not. Well, he decides, If I'm going to go down, I'm going to go down like a hero. He hurls the fork with all his might at Sinn, not really caring where it might hit, and instantly whips out two more forks. Sinn watches the forks bounce off of his skin and he bares his teeth with amusement. He takes a step forward and grabs Blue by the head, applying the pain touch, "Save the CITY!" Is screamed as the mental attack is set upon Raja. Blue Raja clenches his eyes shut and lets out a yelp as he feels the hand come down on his head. And stop. What the? He opens one eye and looks up at the beast. What is he doing with my turban? Raja asks himself. Seizing the moment, he grabs a few more of his forks and shoves them towards Sinn, hoping he has enough time to live. Sinn stares down Bluey as the forks continue to bounce off of his skin, is he that strong? Is this a meta with hidden protection powers? The hand is squeezed slightly, still waiting for the screams of agony... Blue Raja is just jabbing away now. Suddenly his turban shrinks a bit and he gasps in surprise. "Ow!" he exclaims. Aha! Here's my large pie-server! Raja grabs the pie-server and doesn't throw it. Instead, he shoves it upwards, hoping to stab Sinn in the arm. "Ohpleaseohpleaseohplease," he thinks frantically. Sinn is simply poked with the pie server, not even piercing the skin. He growls and lifts Blue up by the head a good 5 feet in the air. He steps back and flames well up in his eyes. Just as Blue is sure to be fried, he is dropped, and Sinn slowly starts to smoke and burn. The daylight has crept upon both of them and is burning Sinn. He seems in no pain, but is very concerned as he is being burned alive. He lets out a horrible yell and rips the manhole cover from the sewer. He dives in and pulls the cover on behind him, scurrying off. Probably with the bags of blood. Blue Raja stares, wide-eyed, at the manhole cover. He trembles so violently that he can't even get to his shaky feet. He looks at the sun (although it's not recommended by optometrists everywhere) and starts to laugh a wheezy, happy-to-be-alive laugh. He curls himself into the smallest ball he can, hugging his knees tightly, and still laughing.
