~story~ *As Sender sits down with a bowl of popcorn he unpauses the movie, "Spaceballs", as he turns on the cd player, calmly watching as he listen to Jars of Clay. The cd starts to skip as he gets up and walks over to look upon what's wrong, the movie is playing the scene where they turn off the Maid, as the volume goes up... and plays, "IN THE EYES OF A JACKEL I SAY KAAAAAAAAAAAAAA- BOOM!" Sender's eyes blaze as they roll himself flying back towards the couch.. unconcious... *

Sounds of a small object being racketed against the nights air; Garr standing along a road plays by himself, near a lamppost. As he concentrates in the night, with the sidelights beaming down in the certain spots of the park, he hits the ball with his feet, knees and chest as he continues to keep it up, miraculously, without failing to hit. Angel coming from down the path, looking down at her coffee, sipping her coffee and paying no attention to the world around her she walks through the autumn touched park. Whenever Garr misses it, he'd shakes his head and picks it up again as he continues on, stalling it on his ankle as he knocks it up again. Too bad not many are willing to waste there time on attacking a small ball. As she continues down, walking, with a small book tucked under her arm she glances up and takes a swift look around her, only to run into a guy hacking wearing all leather, slightly spilling coffee on her shirt. Angel, "oh I'm so sorry" He turns to her as from the impact dropping the ball, he blinks slight and looks at the coffee stains on her shirt. "Oh. I didn't notice ye either, m'lady. Um. Need a cloth? For that" he looks at her, reaching into his pockets. She glances down at her stained shirt and laughs a little, "please." He nods trying to be gentlemanlike and pulls a cloth from the inside of his trench handing it to her. Angel sits on a near by bench and gently wipes the coffee from her shirt, "damn." Angel looks up at him and smiles somewhat. He returns it, smiling slight, "I hope it doesn't stain to terribly bad, m'lady. Would hate for a shirt to go to waste, in such manner." he said, "I'm sure it'll be fine" she replies to him as she stands infront of him. "My name's Angel" a slight pauses as she hands him back the cloth, "and you are? " He holds out his hand, and she extends hers gently, and he nods again, "Tis a pleasure to meet ye Angel. My name is Garr Aileron..." as he lowers and kisses the backside of her hand, gently. Letting it go slowly. Angel blushes slightly at his polite gestures. "Lovely to meet you " He looks around slight, then up, "So, what are you doing this lovely night, m'lady?" "I mean, strolling alone in a park. Not many come this late." he took a quick look at his pocketwatch while saying. "Taking a break from life" Garr nods slight, "ohm. I see" curiously, to his being out late aswell, "what about you? Are you just a night person?" He grins slight, "Yes. I am, m'lady." She nods and smiles some, "Wanna get some coffee? Since I've spilled the rest of mine on my shirt" he nods, "Sure, if it's okay. I'll pay. Seeing it be half my fault." Angel shakes her head, "don't worry about it, I can pick up the tab" Garr shakes his head slight and puts up his index finger infront of his face as he turns looking at her, "I insist" She smiles, "okay" she says as she stands, beginning to walk briskly through the chilling night. She can't help but notice his strange taste in clothing, "lovin the threads" Garr nods slowly as he continues his walk with her. Stepping his head down some. Watching the ground as they walk, "What is your favorite coffee shop, that's open. And we shall go there." (As usual nowadays the infamous!) "There's a Starbucks around the corner. That'll do fine," she says. "As you wish." he looks ahead again, and kicks a small stone that just found it's way to his feet. "Are you an artist or is black your favorite color?" Unaware of stereotypical artists dress in black and usually wear barrette. "I do alittle sketching now and then. But nay called so to speak of an artist. Black. It tis one of my favorites. And how about ye? What is yer profession?" She nods as she replies, "I write poetry and read at a coffee shop theatre in downtown New York it doesn't pay much but I'm happy".

As they round a corner, a small starbucks comes into view, they enter the venue and sit at a table towards the back as he follows her he glances around the place, lets her sit first, before he does. As he nods to her, and sits. Across from her, "Well. It still is a pleasure to meet ye. And I assure you it will get better." Angel smiles some, "So, you look pretty young, living with your parents still or on your own?" He tilts his head; "I'm on my own. Parents died a while back, but I'm rooming with a friend of mine. And yerself?" She shrugs, "I've been out of my house for about" she pauses to think a minute, "3 years now, home life sucked so I split, I don't mind though. Is your friend a girlfriend? If I may ask" He tilts his head some, placing his hands on the table. "We basically met a week or so ago, nothing close. I don't know if she'd like a guy like me. If that's what ye mean, m'lady. How about ye, you have any special person?" She looks at him, and then to her cup of coffee, the waitress just set down. "I'm not sure." He looks at her, and then down at his cap, his left hand reaches for the sugar. "Aye... knowing not could pose a bad feeling, if it is long..." She nods a bit, "Basically I don't know what I'm really going to do. I broke up with my last boyfriend not too long ago" As she turns her eyes to his hand that's pouring sugar into his cup, sinking into his cap. "Umm.. like sugar?" He realizes and stops, as he grits his teeth some, "sorry. Forgot I was... err. N/m" he sets down the container and gets his spoon, stirring the now thickened cap, a bit. She giggles slight, and smiles at him, "your quite funny, in a foolish way." He shakes his head and they continue to converse for the rest of the night. When time to leave Garr parted ways with her, that night feeling she was quite strong enough to beat maybe even his own ass. If she had to. When he gets home, he unlocks the door to find Akari passed out on the couch, half on and half off. As he looks down at her closing the door he walks to her room, to find a sheet, or cover that'll keep her warm. He turns down the thermostat, because she must have been cold, it's burning up in here. When he returns to her, he kneels down, noticing some spots where she had sweat in her sleep, still reminant on her flesh. He shivers slightly as he pushes her onto the couch better, and covers her. "Sleep well m'lady." Taking the remote from her hand he aims at the television and turns it off, as he takes off his trench and gets in the chair beside the couch. Leaning back against its dull hard feel, he grins some, just like home. Covering himself with his trench he closes his eyes.

The next morning.

Akari wakes up and looks around as she pulls the cover off of her, wiping what left of the midnight sweat off. She notices Garr against the wall across the wall. She gets up and moves over to him taking the trench off of him. And replacing it with the cover that was on her. She takes his trench and puts it on the rack, seeing a piece of paper fall from the pocket. KNOWING she shouldn't, she turned to him and noticed in the paper was folded, she saw a number, and the name Angel. She smirks some as she stuffs it back in his pocket. Starting to go and get ready for work. From the noises Garr awakens, though lack of sleep, doesn't matter to this man. His eyes will always be darkened... he yawns slight, as he notices his trench was take off of him replaced by this sheet. Wonders if he dreamt all of that. Or what? "Akari?" He moves the cover off of himself as he stands up. Folding up the cover. He makes his way towards her room, as he opens the door, while she was getting out of the shower, she looks at him and he looks at her, and jumped back shutting the door with him. "Uh. " Coughs some as he clears his throat, "I'm sorry.. Akari? I heard some noises. Didn't know who it was." he turns and starts to walk away from the door, trying to forget what just happened. Her voice is heard through the door, "Garr! Please knock before entering my room okay?" He replies that he will. She opens her door, fully dressed pulling her hair up, into a bun. She looks down slight when she sees Garr. "So...who's Angel?" she picks up her small jacket and slides it on. "Angel? Oh. Yeah, her" Akari, looks at him like, ~oh yeah. her?~ what type of way is that to speak of someone. "What do you mean oh yeah her?" she says, tapping her foot, "Is she your girlfriend of something?" She looks at his trench, and then back to him, "No. She's just someone I met last night. You jealous?" He turns around towards her, with his head tilted, his left eyebrow slightly raised, curious to her answer. She shakes her head, and looks at him, "No. Why would I be? It's not like we are going out. I was just curious to who she might be." He grins slight. "Nay.. She's just a friend; maybe you two will meet sometime. I could probably find her and whenever yer off work, we can go meet up." She shrugs as she picks up her bag and waves slight, "I have to go or else I'll be late." he nods as she opens the door and leaves. He picks up his trench off the rack and pulls out the paper that had been stuffed, wondering how it fell or how she knew, shrugs and walks over to the phone. Looking at his pocketwatch, he decides wait three hours, she'd probably be asleep. He began cleaning the house some, wasting his time, bored and restless.. Sweet combinations. For an irratable eve. He stumbles on some old things of Akari's, photos and the sort. Passing through the first few pages, he notices she wasn't a very happy child. Or at least it came off that way. "I ...see..." he mumbles reading some small notes in the book, by the pictures, something's important, something just mere moodsetting of the picture.

He closes the book, as he hears the steps being tapped on, by soft pair of shoes, he grins slight, as he sets the book back and walks towards the lone chair, across from the couch. Sitting down in it, exactly when she started to unlock the door. As he turns his head to her, he smiles slight. She passes by him like a mindless, job probed zombie. She drops her purse on the floor as she walks towards the kitchen. The faucet hears, as well as some clanking glass. Till then she arrives back into the living room, almost like he wasn't there. Acting on routine. Taking a sip she then sets it down on the table, sitting on the couch. Her eyes flutter some, and then only to fall over passed out. Garr can only blink. As he looks at her, "A.... kari?" she mumbles something about work. He grins some, "Aka.." her eyes open, as she blinks. "Yes Garr?" he is shocked by her now conscious, not whining. "You okay?" she tilts her head, "Not really. I feel my job is like some machine... draining me everyday. slowly." He gets up and walks beside her, kneeling down. "Want me to get you anything?" She looks into his eyes, "I don't know. " Garr tilts his head, and lowers it some. "I shall be here all night, right beside you. If you need anything, just tell me." he says, looking slightly at her, then to the glass of water, then towards the t.v. That just got turned on by Akari, she has remote in hand. "Lets try to find something interesting on cable...if there was ever" Garr shakes his head. "You know I'd have to agree with you on that." She smiles slightly, and flips through a couple channels, just by looking the two point out if it's crap or something. Making smart-ass remarks was Garr's corner while Akari lays there awake, but burnt out, though laughing sometimes. "Wait till you have to resort to things like this for a living Garr!" she looks at him, "What would you do?" Garr looks at her and grins, "Well, if I was ever to end up doing this, with you, would be the best part, m'lady." Akari smiles, blushing some, "thanks." still going through channels the phone rings, "ugh. Who would be calling? And spoiling the mood." Garr looks at her as he gets up and walks towards the phone, "spoiling the mood eh? Did I miss something or were you and the t.v falling in love?" She smirks, " I was speaking sarcastically.. Heh. Don't toy with me right now unless you want to sleep outside. Hehe." Garr grins slight, as he picks up the phone, "Hello..?", "Hi...Garr?", "Angel? I didn't expect you to be calling here.", "No one expects me. Heh.", "and how are you, m'lady?" Akari look up to Garr talking on the phone, "Tell her hi for me, even though she doesn't know me." Garr nods some... "Hey. My owner says hi". He grins some as he looks back to Akari, who's slowly getting up wondering what he meant by "owner". "Owner? I thought this was your home phone number?" "Oh it is, me and Akari are just messing around." "Ahh. I see. You wanna meet up somewhere? You can bring her if you want, would love to meet her." "Maybe we'll do just that." "Do what?" Akari asks, "Maybe go out, see something rather than walls, m'lady. We need to get out anyways, being cooped up in here isn't well spent." grins, as he removes his hand from the receiver. "You still there Garr?" "Yeah. I'm still here. Let me call you back all right?" "All right, I'll still be here for a while." "Great. Talk to you later." "Later." both hang up almost at the same time. Garr looks down at Akari, "Now. What shall we do? You need to get ready. Maybe? I mean more friends is better than no friends." Akari shrugs some, and looks down a bit. Garr moves his right hand under her chin, tilting her head up to look at him, "It'll go just fine, m'lady." She tries to smile. "I think you need to quit yer job. " Akari looks at him puzzled, when he walks her to her room, "I mean it, I have plenty of things to sell. And you just don't have to work so hard. I mean you can't actually say you enjoy being a slave to whomever come in and says, "gimme dis. gimme dat" in a mimic tone. She laughs slightly, and shakes her head. "You know, you sound just like them." she smiles as he looks at her with a smirk. She taps her foot, looking at him. Thinking, greeeeeeeeeeeeat a staring contest. He turns completely towards her, and tilts his head some making sure his hair doesn't cover his eyes. (Just so no fouls or cheating) She smiles alittle, still tapping her foot on the ground. Putting her arms up on her chest crossed hands to arms. This goes on for about 3 minutes, till he realizes he's standing right in the direction of the air conditioner. He frowns some inside, not letting her know what's up. As the dryness becomes unbearable in the next 2 minutes. Her eyes twitching, some, but not closing, he ends up grabbing his eyes, "ahh. Damming hell!" She giggles some as she tilts her head, "everything all right?" He begins to let go of his eyes as he looks back at her, "yeah. I'll be all right. You won. Shocking, no one's beaten me in a while." She tilts her head, "Why shocking? Because I'm a girl?" curiously, but teasing. "Heh, nahh. I've had many female opponents, You're the only one to outbeat the rest." He grins some. "Maybe we should get ready?" she remembers now about that. "Oh shoot. Yeah. We'd better not keep her waiting." He nods slight as he picks up the phone, "Go. Take a shower. Or whatever, I'll take mine afterwards. " She nods agreeingly, "yes oh mighty master." she grins as she walks towards her room. His expression is "...." blank look on face. He rings up Angel, and talks to her for about 5 minutes, setting the meeting, as he hears the water slowly stop. Akari walking out, her hair dripping wet, but her body covered by a towel, she grins and looks at him leaning up to him, "Don't start thinking of bringing a third member in the house btw. You haven't been here long enough to handle just Me." she winks teasingly, as she turns around back into her room, shutting it and locking. He stands there, wondering. "God damn. Why must he be in the middle of it all."

Later that night, meeting up with Angel.

As Garr and Akari begin to walk down the street they look around wondering why Angel would want to meet at a pool hall, rather than someplace quieter. Watching a car slowly pass by them he notices to the corner of his eye, the building she mentioned. Roc Bibbins' Pool Hall, on the mid wedge of the buildings, what a lovely location, he thinks. "Hey, Akari. It's over here" he motions his hand as he begins to walk towards the street checking both sides. She holds his hand and walks quietly across the street with him so she doesn't get distracted and lost/hit by oncoming traffic. Angel sits inside the pool hall, sipping at a Pepsi, reading through a book, and awaiting the arrival of the others. Garr looks down, as he checks his pocketwatch, hoping they aren't too late, just said to meet a few hours, it's now 10:15 p.m. As the two walk up to the doorway noticing, slowly pass the bouncer at the door, who regards them and turns back, to watch the door. Angel, taking a quick glance up from her book, she sees the slightly familiar Garr, a young lady trailing beside him. She wearing a hood and slightly new sneakers, a pair of black jeans with a tank underneath the hood stands. He moves her hair out of a scrunchie as she shakes it out and begins working her way in between pool tables and large guys playing, walking over to meet the couple. She turns first to Garr, "Hey there darlin.. Who's your friend?" nodding her head a bit towards Akari, smiling pleasantly. Garr nods to Angel as he looks over to Akari, "This is my roommate that I was speaking of last time we talked, she owns the place that I stay at." Angel reaches hand out towards Akari's, "hi, I'm Angel" Akari nods, "hello Angel" smiles somewhat hopefully, shakes her hand. Angel looks back at Garr as she tilts her head some, "So, you two wanna play a game or do you want to find some place less smoky and testosterone filled?" smiles a lil wider., "I feel like a biker chick or something here.." Akari looks around cautiously and says quietly, "I think I'm kinda out of place. Maybe I should go?" looks to Garr. Angel interrupts, ". Oh come on! we're gonna have a blast tonight. Stick around for a bit!" Garr looks at Akari and shakes his head, "Nah. Come on. stay." Angel smiles, "we can go some place else if you'd be happier there?" Garr begins to remove his trench as he looks at Angel and then back to Akari, ". Besides, I didn't take you out here just for you to meet Angel and then leave again." frowns slight. Angel jokingly, "we could go cow tipping if you'd rather." she grins though afterwards. Akari smiles weakly, "I am sorry, Garr. Maybe I should change. These clothes are no good if I'm gonna be lifting my leg up on the pool table for hard to reach shots." grins slightly and runs off, "I'll be right back." Angel looks to Garr, a slightly confused look on her face, "hmm... well if she's that intent on putting her leg on a pool table, all the power to her" she shrugs a bit. Akari, somehow runs home and quickly changes, rushing back... Unaware Garr holds out his trench to where Akari once was, "just use this. Besides. You won't have al these guys staring at you unless they liked you." grins some. Smiles some as he turns to Angel, "yeah. Let's get us a table. So we can start up!" Angel agreeingly, "all right" Garr tilts his head, "Besides, if any guy looks at you funny, tell me. And I'll change his direction." Angel holds up a random pool cue* you know, you could really beat the tar out of somebody with one of these!" begins weaving her way between the crowd and heads towards a table at the end of the hall. Tosses her hood down over a near by chair and pulls her blonde hair back with a scrunchie. Garr mumbling something about "yeah. Break a skull or two against the wall by them too" looking back for Akari, as he walks through the crowd, seeing her not there, "..." as the scent of beer and sweat fills his air, he shivers slight as he closes his eyes slightly. Trying to block them out.

Akari walks back into the bar/pool hall, misty with cigarette smoke. As the path of toxic fog clears, Garr and Angel can see her clearly. Walks towards them, smirking/grinning a bit as her black leather boots make that leather squishing sound, along with the zippers jingling. She is wearing her "once-in-a-purple-moon" outfit. A short, tight, black leather skirt with slits up to the top of her hips on both sides. Her top is a black leather tank top, zipped up the front. Her hair falls down her shoulders and a silver pendant glitter against her cleavage shimmers slight from the dull lighting, as well as matching earring dangling from her earlobes. "How's this guys?" Angel tilts her head questioningly, "I thought you DIDN'T want people to see much when you straddled the pool table." "But whatever you're comfortable in Hun. Cute skirt" Akari smiles innocently, "Hehe" Angel looks at her, "Shall we play?" Garr tilts his head as he stands there...didn't ever notice her having anything like that, ". Eh?" blinks and turns some, remembering, "oh. Yeah." Akari nods, "let's play" Angel looks over and notices Garr drooling, "um.... Garr?" he looks to her and she hintingly wipes her chin, "got a lil something right there darlin" AkarI giggles as she looks over to Garr, he shakes his head some, blinking a bit as he grabs a stick. Looks at her, with an evil look. Angel winks quickly, grins and picks up a pool cue. Akari comments, "wrong stick hunk" Sorta getting a bit fed up with the constant pick on Garr because he's got two chicks with him, both stunning. Lets out a small growl as he moves over to Akari, leaning down whispering, "Not for later, it's not." winks as he moves around her. Angel's hands slowly slide down the cue stick, "oh my...." Akari grabs a pool cue as well. Angel quickly racks up all the balls inside the white triangle holder and situates them in the middle of the green table. Akari raises eyebrows teasingly, looking at Garr again. Angel imitates like she sprays Garr with a hose, letting out a hissing noise like water, "down boy!" Akari tries not to laugh, grins. Garr walks to the opposite side of the table, looking back at the two. As he tilts his head. Letting out a slight sigh. But a grin stills across his lips. Angel turns to Akari, "Well, will yea do the honors?" Akari takes the stick and prepares to hit the cue ball. Garr moves the triangle off the balls first before Akari takes her shot, and sets it on the hook above, "Maybe that'll help." grins. Angel sticks her tongue out at him, he replies, "don't show it unless yer going to use it, m'dear." Akari hears this, strikes the ball but totally misses, jabbing some random guy in the head with the stick. Angel looks, covers her mouth a bit, smothering a laugh. Akari, blinking, "oopsie..." Garr blinks as he is glad he moved to the opposite side, ". Oho" They watch the guy rub his head in pain. A few balls on the other table roll as the guy falls over onto it. Garr smirks, "That's going to leave a mark." Angel nods, "wrong table darlin. Nice shot though, he'll be hurting for weeks" Akari cringes and shouts out, "Sorry!" Garr motions for Angel, "Yers next m'lady?" looking at Angel. Angel leans down over the table, eyeing the balls carefully and brings her pool cue back. She quickly takes her shot, knocking the formation apart. Nods some as Garr taking his stick in hand he moves over to see the table overlook. Some random somebody comes over and breaks their pool cue over Angel's leg. She's suddenly crippled and we must now leave the pool hall! "oww, my leg.. It seems to have been broken. Now I know how Nancy Kerrigan felt!" Garr, looking over at Akari he smiles slight, slowly licks his index finger then. Stops cuz Angel ruined it, sighing, "Time to leave I guess" Akari leans over to see if Angel's all right. Angel looks down and notices the bone snapped in half and sticking out of the skin. Garr looking worried walks over to Angel. . Kneeling slight, "We'd better get you out of here. And to a hospital!" Garr, notice Akari's extremely tight clothing.. bending.. over. He grins slight as he whispers to Akari something quietly. (In her words!) Akari looks like a whore and some guy goes up to her with $50, while listening to Garr. Garr looks at the guy and growls, "Bastard!" punches the guy square in the nose, knocking him on his ass, landing on a broken stick that seems to stick in his ass. The man screams in pain as he stands up running around with the stick torn through his pants and in him. Akari and Garr lower down to help Angel up. As they grab their things. Rushing her out. Due to the noise they made, the bartender was aware, already calling for a cab, to get there immediately. As they had gotten outside, a city cab had just pulled up to their convenience. "Woah.. You guys need a lift to the hospital?" the man says as he leans back unlocking the doors and flipping on the switch, "come on in! If any blood stains, I'm sorry that'll be extra bud!" he says to Garr as Akari first gets in, the cabby whistles slight, "Hot damn, you are grouped with some might foxy babes tonight man! If you need a helping hand you know you can always ring us up and say you need to get a message to cab 132!" Akari mumbles something about annoying cab drivers, as she helps Angel struggle to get inside letting her broken leg over Akari's legs, so it won't get hit during the drive. Garr slides in behind her, as he motions her to lay back. He looks at the cabby, "Well! We're in get moving!" As the cabby begins to drive out of the parking spot, he speeds up some, while oncoming traffic begins to pour behind them. Luckily, getting the first 3 out of 10 red lights, being green. Saving them time. Angel tries to hold back most her tears of pain while she mumbles something about hating pool halls, she reaches up and takes Garr's hand gripping it tight. "If they have to take off my leg. Tell them I'd rather be dead!" Akari looking down at the blood that is still forming at the wound, she tries not to touch it, as she feels the warm, blood, sliding on her legs, and between her thighs as her eyes widen, thinking "oho no!" She begins to move back some, taking a black clothe that Garr usually carries on the inside of his trench, for unknown purposes he has always carried one, for instances. Trying not to raise her leg too much, she moves the clothe between her legs cleaning up the blood that seems to of found it's way against her flesh. Garr peers a glance at her and tilts his head and turns away. To give her privacy, as she finishes, moving it along and under Angel's leg, "Garr. You got something to cut these pants off with?" He reaches in his pockets as he thinks. And pulls out a small bone bladed dagger, about from his inner right boot, underneath his pants. She smiles slight taking it as she begins to cut open the pant legs, "you seem to come prepared for everything. You know that Garr?" He grins slight. " Yes. Everything. " Angel looks up at him and sneers, "No time. Arhh!!!.. Stop. Joking when I AM IN PAIN!!"

As the car begins to stop he sees the hospital halfway to the next light, "shh.. Just hold my hand. And we'll be there in a couple minutes. And they'll fix you up. You won't lose yer leg. I Promise you". As he sighs some, Angel notices something strange how Garr doesn't continue breathing pattern like normal. He grooms her hair out of her face as the cabby pulls into the driveway, at this time Akari has cleaned the wound to her best, as she covers it slight with the towel. Garr trying to forget the smell of Angel's blood as he closes his eyes and turns away. "Hey bud, Go run inside and get a nurse to fetch your friend a wheel chair! I'll be waiting here for my pay. " Garr shakes his head as he opens the door. Slowly sliding from under Angel, he whispers in her ear, "Don't worry.. It'll all be fine." as he gets up and rushes to the door, pushing it in and heads to the counter. Akari looks at Angel, "I'm sorry. This isn't the way I expected to meet you..." she says as Angel looks up to Akari, "It's all right Hun, .. Mm. I didn't know it was going.. to happen either." the cabby looks back with a dumb faced look but grins, "Hey.. Now which one of you two is actually going out with that guy? I mean, any shot of me." Akari looks at the guy with a disturbed look; "Quiet or we'll rip your balls off! Can't you see she's in pain!" He backs off, holding his hands up as he takes the wheel again, and looks inside. Garr begins to run out with two nurses and a male nurse, who brings along a wheelchair. Garr opens the door. "All right lets get her out of here, make her a room, and start to get everything you know about this girl. Records, allergic reactions. stat!!" As the male nurse runs in the other two nurses help Garr slide Angel out, they lean her back some in the chair and reassure her. Garr asks Akari to get inside and stay with her; Garr enters the cab again. "Well.. Do I get paid?" Garr nods, "Yes. I need to run home first though. It's down this street and take a right.. All right?" While the man starts up the car, Akari looks back as she sees the two in the cab leave. Wondering.. she turns back and follows them bring Angel in. During the ride when the cabby make the corner as he said, he realizes this street is abandoned as he turns around noticing Garr with a grin on face baring his fangs as he leaps forward towards the guy. The silent screams of him being echo's throughout the car, little can be heard on the outside while the crisp snapping and tearing of muscle and tendons is heard. Garr licks some of the blood off as he opens the door and kicks the guy's corpse out of the car. Taking his wallet of course. Drives to Akari's and his house, to get cleaned up.

Meanwhile, in the hospital while Angel lays unconscious, Akari covers her eyes outside of the room, half on eyes half on ears. Trying to block out the noises and what not. Worried of where Garr went to and if he'll come back. It's not cool to leave his roommate and friend here all alone. Garr dumped the car down the street of their apartment, using his abilities to meld with shadows, to get him to the hospital faster. He then walks towards the doors of the hospital, nodding to the counter nurse, whom remembers him, lets him pass, "Go.. All the way down to the hall take a right, and then to your left... Your friend should be finished by now." He thanks her as he continues on. Finding Akari, half-shocked and half excited, she gets out of the chair and runs to him, "Why? Why did you leave us here alone? And.. Why did you change clothing??" He looks at her and shakes his head, "I am sorry, I went to go get some a pair of pants, and a shirt for her, for when she gets out.. I doubt she'd want to wear torn pants, and who knows what condition that shirt is now after this. I didn't mean to leave you all here... alone. The Cab driver took me to the house, and some guy ran up and shot him while I was getting the things, I had to go back in because when I realized, I was sitting in a puddle of his blood.." Akari's eyes widen as she looks at him. "When I ran back in.. I called the cops.. They were already on their way, they said they found some guys who were bragging about shooting a cab driver in the back of the head while he was jerking.. off..." Akari's face turns from shock to slight disgust as she back away, "oh. my god. That's awful.." she has a feeling of who he was jerking off from. Shivers slight, thanking that she got out of there when he told her too. Garr moves over to her and with the bag now over his shoulder he slides his arms around her, and holds her close. " I am sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. Or Angel like that." As the doctors leave the room behind Akari, she turns as he looks towards the first person to walk though, seems she is all right, a cast shall be put on her leg, tomorrow and all is well. Soon it'll heal the two smiled as they thanked him ever so many times aswell as the last doctors and nurses.

Next morning.

Screams in shock at the pain of her leg, she tries to grab it but her bed restricts her form such. She looks around and tries to reach the button on the side of the bed, and snaps it for help. Soon after a dull buzzing lesson the pain in her leg seems to be not as bad, she hears the door open. "Ahh your awake now. Angel, Shall I inform your friends?" She rubs her forehead slightly, feeling a hangover of medicine and cappuccino. Nodding slowly, she tries to sit up, but the doctor tells her to stay laying still, standing will only make her feel ill. As a few minutes past, Akari walking in slowly, slightly hyped up off of coffee and with a glaze over her eyes. She smiles with a tilt at Angel, "Hey Angel! How's your leg??" Akari walks over and sits in a chair closest to Angel's bed, as Garr leans into the doorway, holding his head somewhat, with a headache. "What's wrong with you Garr?" Garr looks up to her as he moves over to the windows, slowly turning parts of the shades down, and turns to them with a slight smile. "I have a slight headache, from being up with Akari in the lobby. You don't know how much irritable things go on in there." His eyes glance over to Akari, as she begins to move her hands up and down the cast, thinking about it, "Akari, don't get too curious... she's on a sugar rush. Luckily she didn't get caught running around in the nursery. She was scaring all the little babies." Angel turns her head to Akari, as if worried. "Umm. My legs is fine right now, give me a.. little while and I'll show you it. all right?" She says as Akari nods three times, but looks like only one and a half. She notices Akari had changed her clothes, wondering where she had gotten the little school uniform, she think as she turns to Garr about to open her mouth, but Garr speaks knowingly, "We had a little run in.. and so, during my chase I found she had raided someone's room, somehow. She changed and her old clothes are right here," he pats a bag by his side as he turns his eyes back down to Akari, "You don't want to know how many cups of coffee she's had.... Believe me." Angel shakes her head as she lays back, "I'm sorry about last night. Things went out of hand." Garr shakes his head, "Don't worry about it, besides. If we hadn't what would we be doing right now?" She smirks some, "I'd be walking." Akari giggles some as she covers her mouth, "oopsie." The two sort of ignore her, knowing she's not all there. Not paying attention to her at all, she seems to vanish from the room, while the other two are talking. The sounds of a shower being turned on interrupts the two. As they look around the room. "Akari. Not again." Garr mumbles as he walks to the bathroom door, which is still open, leaning inside he is grabbed and the door is shut. Inside the room Akari's laughing and looking at Garr, who's now fallen into the tub, Akari opens the door as she rushes out shutting it, locked behind her. "He he I tricked him. I tricked him good." Angel looks at Akari and tries to back up against her bed. "Oh, Angel don't worry, I'm quite aright now." She smiles at her politely. "They said in a few weeks we're to take you back here, and give you a check-up on that leg. Said they used some of their "enchanced" techniques. Garr was helpful enough to pay for it too. You should thank him sometime. He'll probably appreciate it." Her words like a blur, Angel nods somewhat trying to pretend she heard it all.

A crash is heard in the bathroom, while the doctor comes back in. He turns to the door and thinks as he looks back. "Ahh.. Seems you're doing better now, eh Angel?" She nods some as Akari walks up to the doctor and smiles sweetly at him, "What's up doc?" The bathroom door swings open slight, as Garr steps out holding his trench over his shoulder, soaked in water, his eyes immediately turn to Akari. The doctor looks at him and tilts his head, "Haven't.. I seen you somewhere before?" The man was old, it was possible once, Garr had come here before. "I could of sworn I seen you here about 25 years ago.. You.. look the same.. but.. how?" Garr looks at him and smiles some, "You are mistaking me for my father... sadly enough he died 9 years ago. I get mentions that I look like him a lot.." the doctor nodded to Garr, "I am very sorry to hear about his unfortunate death.." The doctor steps back some as he nods to Angel, "Soon we'll have you up and ready to leave, I hope your stay wasn't too terrible." Angel shakes her head, "No, but thank you doctor." Akari frowns slight as she begins to bounce around the room. "Why can't I feel my legs!!" Garr whispers over into Akari's ear, as she turns to him with a childish voice, "Naughty naughty.. You now better than to say that! Teehe." Angel looks at the two as she begins to cover her eyes, "Maybe you two should be in here than me." Garr moves his arms around Akari, her hyperness makes him feel some sort of closeness between the two of them as he looks into her eyes, "Akari.. I think..." Akari looks up at him and tilts her head, "You.. think.. what?" Garr grins some, "I think I have.. to lock you up when we get home." She moves her arms around him, pulling him close, "I feel strange.. I feel.. a bit ill. When.. we go home, don't leave me.. please." (thus sparking the alliance) Garr nods to her as he smiles slightly, kissing her forehead gently. "I shall not leave you this eve, m'dear." Angel looks at the two and shakes her head, pressing the help button, to get her out of bed NOW!

After the releasing and pills, what glorious pills.

Finally out, Angel screams in joy as she gets pushed by Garr, who's thinking ~ oh great ~ "Thank you Garr, I probably would be kicking someone in the ass with the cast if you weren't so kind to pay for my surgery." Garr shrugs, thinking it might of been best keeping her in there for a while. Akari walking behind Angel but beside Garr, as she looks around, and steps forth. She flags down a taxi, seems it's not hard for women to flag down a cabby here. As she crawls in the cabby gets a sight of Akari's ass, seems everyone's getting some actions. Also Angel since she's sitting behind her, she was wearing panties though. Although they are the flavored kind.... cherry. Garr had noticed a smell of cherries earlier. Didn't know what that was. As he helps Angel out of the wheelchair and into the car Angel looks at Akari saying she better keep her ass down, she thinks the cabby'll have a hard on. Akari remembers last night as her eyes widen. "Oh my.. god.. it was my fault wasn't it." Angel blinks some as she thinks, "uh.. what are you talking about darlin?" Garr folds up the chair as he puts it in the trunk and moves into his seat in back. "We need to go to the address ???? ???????? ??? ????? They cabby complies as he begins to drive off, heading to Angel's place. Before the taxi started Garr noticed a unusual man in all black, leaning against a building, looking at him, directly. As they pull out into the street the man gets off the wall, Garr looking back, doesn't see the guy anymore, just pedestrians walking along the street, not a sign of a man in black. (no no. Not like the fucking movie) Akari looks at him, "Everything all right Garr?" She tilts her head a little concerned on his seemingly outburst of wonder. Never seen him like this, Garr looks over to Akari, and nods slowly, "I am all right. Thanks.." She tilts her head, ".. You look worried.." Garr shakes his head as he turns back facing the front window, tapping his foot slowly, like in tune with something in his head. She tries to ignore it for now. As they pull up to Angel's apartment, they notice it's got a rusty old Elevator.. thinking.. "NO". They get out and Garr pulls the attached stilt, from the wheelchair and unfolds it, as he hands it to her. Taking the chair, Akari offers to help Angel's other side, as Garr pays the cabby, they then go up, climbing the stairs to room ?? floor, ### room. Once on her floor, she looks back to the two, as she takes the door, hiding what's behind her. Nervous of her room, she nods to the two, "Sorry, I can't let you tow in right now. There's some things that need to be fixed up, so.. thanks for the "pleasing" night." The two finish handing her the rest of her things, "It's all right, it was nice meeting you!" Akari says as she steps back, "Thanks.. we're sorry again about yer leg.. If you need anything, just call us.. all right?" She nods as she shuts the door, the two walking on back towards the stairs. This time they notice the elevator, as they walk to it, not remembering before. As they stand waiting for it to raise up, four guys stand behind the two. "Heheh.. heh.. dude, heh.. check out how long this hippie's hair is man.. heh heh.." One says as the other punches the one in the shoulder, "Yeah heh. I think it's what they call the.. goth look hehe.. heh." The third one taps Garr on the shoulder.. "Hey.. man, whaaaaazzzzzup!" Garr tilts his head as he turns to the four, Akari taking his right arm, suggesting they take the stairs. Garr smiles kindly to the four, as they walk past them and to the stairs, the fourth one speaks, "I think that guy's gay did you see that?? He smiled at us!" the four laugh as the elevator makes the "ding!" sound as they open it and walk in. While Garr and Akari walks downstairs they hear the laughter of them while they walk down the stairs a little faster, wanting to exit this place before they get to the bottom floor. As they reach midst of the stairwell, they hear a loud falling sound as the moment Akari steps on the floor of the first floor, the loud noise ends. With a louder crashing bang, the elevator crashes down on the first floor one of them who was holding on to the fence had his fingers sliced off as they flew down onto the ground, Akari's eyes rolled as she faints, Garr turns seeing her crashed on the ground. Turning his gaze back to the men, who've had metal ripping into their bodies. Dying slowly. He smirks some as he notices one still twitching on the serrated end of the elevator's ground, his eyes turn towards the light of the doorway as faint screaming was heard. He lowers down and picks up Akari, trying to stand her up so they can leave the area as fast as they can.

While flagging down a taxi, noticing it must be something about women and flagging these bastards. While unconscious, Garr manipulates Akari's body forcing it to stand upright, and to flag down a taxi, as it works.. followed by 2 police cars and an ambulance. Garr rushes up and grabs Akari so she won't fall from his manipulation, wearing off. He opens the cab and helps her body in while looking at the Cabby, "Take us to this address" He tells the man to go to the exact location, while they pull out and leave. The cops unaware enter the building letting the two go in the taxi. As the cabby turns around and then back, "Is she okay?" Garr nods, "Yes.. just a bit tired.." the cabby tilts his head while making a left turn, "Weird.. I could of sworn she flagged me down.." Garr grins slight as he pulls Akari's unconscious body up to his, to make her more comfortable, "Yes.. she did." After a few moments, the cabby stops as Garr hands him money, he steps out, pulling Akari out with him, he takes control of her body again, making it wave to the cabby, as they walk up to the door, opening it, as the two walk up. As they walk up, Garr catches her on the weak steps and decides it'd be best in his arms, rather than falling and probably hurting herself. As he gets to her door, putting his knee behind her as he holds her up with one arm and his leg, against the door-frame, he reaches into her pockets and pulls out her set of keys as he unlocks the door. Replacing them, he reaches over and opens the door, bringing the two in as he kicks the door shut. Opening her bedroom door, he moves over to her bed, as he lays her down. He undoes her shirt, as he moves it off of her, and then her shoes, moving up to her skirt as he undresses her, then pulls the sheets over her. Looking like an unconscious angel, Garr grins slight, as he walks to her bathroom, and gathers a cloth. Soaking in water he returns to her side, as he kneels down some and picks up the clothes she wore, placing the washcloth on her forehead, spread long. As he walks out of her room, leaving the door open, makes his way to the kitchen, pulling a pot out cabinet under the counter. As he raises up to the sink he sets the pot in, scrubbing it slowly, making sure it's clean as he then pulls it out, spilling the water, to freshen it. Taking it to the stove he places the pot on it, as he searches through the cabinet, for any type of soup, broth, cream, tea... finding tea. He leaves the pot on the stove: on, as he returns to Akari's side. Removing the cloth gently, he gazes down at her, the alarm turns on as the music, had been turned down, playing Smashing Pumpkins, beautiful.. as it's in mid song, "beautiful, you're beautiful, as beautiful as the sky......" As Garr's eyes shift to the left, thinking, what's the coincidence of these things happening. Is about ready to start breaking every radio he hears.

He replaces the washcloth on her head as he hears in the other room the water boiling. Damn good hearing, dat's all i's gots ta say. Lifting the pot off the stove, he grabs a cup and begins to pour some water in, as he places the rest of the water on the stove, in pot. He pulls out a can of chicken broth, as he runs it under the can opener's blades. Pulling it over the pot, he takes a two tea bags out of the box, and places them into the cup, repeating with a second cup. While at the same time, pouring the broth into the pan. As he grabs a small spoon and a large stirring spoon out of the drawer. Tossing the old can and lid in trash as he begins to stir the soup. Taking a saucer out of the cabinet above the stove, he sets it beside the cup and then the cup onto it. Placing the small spoon beside it he then finishes the finally mixing of the broth, pulling a bowl out, to pour into. As he picks up a small tray, he wonders why he finds whatever he needs where ever he looks here. Like he's been here for a long time, and noticed everything. He walks back to her room, where she's already sitting up, pulling the cloth off of her head, "G.. Garr?.." He smiles slight as he enters her room, with tray in hands, "I'm here, m'lady.." She looks up her eyes slightly widen, wasn't expecting room service. She lays back some, "God.. I have the worse headache.." Garr sets the tray over her waist as he nods, "I know.. That's why I did this.." She smiles some, as she picks up the cup, taking a sip, "Thanks.. Last thing I remember is.. that elevator fell.. Were those guys all right?".. Garr shakes his head, "Unfortunately, m'dear.." Akari shakes her head, "That...could of been us.. you know." Garr slowly nods some, trying to look sad, but does it so perfectly, "Lets not think about that, Akari.. Eat yer soup and drink, you told me earlier ye were feeling ill.. if you don't now, I wouldn't want to find later you vomiting in yer bathroom." he tries to smile some. She shakes her head as she looks at him, with a smirk. Taking the spoon she takes some broth and puts it in her mouth. Watching Garr's expression she then hides a grin, and pushes the spoon more into her mouth, in a spoon-seductive way, pulling it out and then slowly pushing back in. Garr gives her a evil look as he takes the other cup of tea, and placing his hands on the sides, his thumbs against the handle, as he slowly rotates them against it. He lowers his lips towards Akari, as he begins to start slowly licking it and the tea. Akari shakes her head, "Well yours is more evident. I can tell what yer imitating. Rather mine. " she winks. He lowers his cub, right after taking a real sip, he leans back. "So.. what's on your mind, Garr?" Garr lowers his head.. as he then lifts it up. "Have I ever told you how beautiful ye are?" She smiles and nods, "Yes, the first time we met.. 3 days ago.. 2 days ago.. and 1 and a half days ago, 3 hours, and exactly.." looking at her watch, "32 minutes..." Garr looks at her dumbfounded, "You.. remember every time I told you that??" She nods with a grin, "Your the only one who's called me that in a while. How could I not?" He shrugs slight, as he looks at her. Seems the alarm clock, has a cd player activated, to play the CD player, when the alarm is set. It goes off again, seeming that Akari had purchased the Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness cd. Now being it on the song, "Lily", in midst, seems her player stops and starts halfway. "Silly, I know I'm silly.. cause I'm hanging in this tree.. in the hopes that she will catch a glimpse o..." Garr holding his head flips out, as he swings the golden middle part of halbred, out, and slashing out at the alarm clock. Knocking it towards the wall. Akari stand in mid stare, as she sees the streak of yellowish gold fly past her face. She emits a shrieking yelp, as she drops her cup down on onto it's saucer. Garr stops it as he turns back, realizing. "Great.. my sheets are dirty now.." Akari looks at Garr as he embarrassed smiles, stepping back some. "I'll go find you another..." Akari pauses him ,"no.. that's fine.. I'd.. I'd rather you just hold me." Garr tilts his head as he nods slowly, helping her take off the spoiled sheets, from the bed. Pulling the leather straps out of their individual small buckles on his boots he moves over to the other side, doesn't know how, why, or what she wants with this. But being one whom serves most females' commands, especially if he A) Likes them B) Lives with them C) Being tortured by them D) Doing it for his own good! He lays above the top sheet, as she does the same, moving closer to him, "Hold me, Garr. You said you'd be right beside me.." Garr nods, "as I mean it m'dear.." She moves her arms out placing them gently on his chest as he moves his arm over her, using his trench like a cover as his lips gently touch her forehead, she latches somewhat to him, snuggling close. He closes his eyes as he feels her warmth, slowly against his shirts. He kisses her forehead gently, whispering, "I think I'm falling in love.. with you,.. Akari.." Her eyes open slightly, as she moves her head back from his. His eyes open as she gazes into them, she moves up slowly, and kisses his deeply as she holds him closer. He moves his left hand up to her right cheek, as he caresses her soft, warm skin gently, letting his slightly chilled, turned warmer, touch glide along her face, as he returns the kiss to her.

Mid that eve, after a rude awakening to a blaring phone.

Akari, wobble to the phone, as she picks it up, "H.. Hello??" Angel's voice is heard, "Hey, Akari.. How's everything? It took you a while to get to the phone.. everything all right? Or are you doing something with Garr.. huh?" Akari looks back to her bedroom, seeing Garr laying there, "..um.. No, we haven't done anything together.. what gave you the idea we had?" Angel laughs somewhat on the phone as she stops, "Oh my, darlin. Don't tell me you have a guy in your house, and you both aren't doing anything together. I mean, from what you told me is that you like him. And you both haven't touched in any way? Mighty strange at the bar last night.." Akari tilts her head, "W....what do you mean strange? I can barely remember much of what was going on that night.. except for someone breaking yer leg." Angel in disbelief, "Come on, tell me you haven't even seen him topless.." Akari's eyes widen slight, "err.. no. He tends to be fully clothed no matter.." Angel, "humph.. Next you'll be telling me you only invited him in as a friend." Akari tilts her head, as she notices Garr moving in his sleep, like struggling, "Hmm.. Well. he did.. appeal to me, but I wasn't expecting him to fall in love with me.." Angel, "Wait.. he said he's in love with you?" Akari sighs some, "Yes... he did.. why did he tell you that?" Angel, "No.. I mean, now is your chance, he loves you, you like him, why don't you get together?" Akari moves towards the door as she watches Garr, "I.. don't think we're.. Angel, lets not talk about that right now." Angel softens her tone, "So.. What's he doing right now?" Akari tilts her head, as Garr stops moving, "He's sleeping.. You ever notice he doesn't breath right?.. I am breathing three times as many as he is, twice if I take long breaths." Angel agreeing, "Yes, I noticed it two days ago, when we were going to the hospital. He doesn't feel all there, any which way. Where is he from?.." Akari begins to tap her finger against the phone's back, as she sighs somewhat, "I don't.. exactly know where he's from. Most he's told me was that, ~ Where he's from, having long hair isn't a fashion ~ That died in the end of the 60's. Most I can guess is that he's from over somewhere.. maybe.. England." Angel laughs slightly as she then groans in pain.. "Blasted leg!.. Well.. it might lead a clue on why he's talking in a renissance type style, eh?" Akari walks into her room, where the tray, bowl, and cups are. Picking them up she takes a slight breath, "Well, that might be right. At least he's a gentleman. I mean, he fixed me some soup and tea, when I had awaken earlier." Angel mumbles something about the cursed doctors, "Oh?... That was very sweet of him. Did you hear a loud crash earlier today?" Akari replies nervously, "Well.. yeah.. me and Garr were walking along the way to the elevator.. when these four guys behind us started to tell Garr things about him. And ..well.. We took the stairs.. when we hit bottom floor.. so did the elevator." Angel with shock in her voice, "Oh my dear lord.. Did you see it?" Akari having a fainted flashback of one the male's fingers getting sliced off, her eyes begin to shake in a slight horror, "it.. was.. so grusome.. I couldn't watch.. I .. I fainted." Angel shakes her head, her hair can be heard against the receiver, as she speaks, "Well.. I would like to say that I think. Garr plays too many role playing games!" Akari giggles, "Shhh." she says whispering tone, "maybe he's a vampire!" she tries not to giggle aloud. Angel returns the laugh, as she says, "Maybe he's a wizard or something. You know, something like Merlin, hehe." Akari shakes her head as she notices back in her bedroom, Garr missing from the bed. "uhh.. Angel?.." replying, "Yes Akari? What is it?" in a slight worried tone, replying to Akari's slight spooked. "You.. know.. how we were just talking about Garr.. I.. don't see him. or hear him.." Angel, with a wicked thought.. "I know where he is.. He's.. in.. your pants!.. Get out of your pants! WE have his location.. Just get out of your pants!!!" Akari, "What????" Angel, "I was only.." a scream is heard on the other end, as the phone slams down, leaving the tone ringing in Angels' ear.. her eyes widened as if the scream was of deathly aspect.

In Akari's apartment, Garr drags Akari to a chair as he pushes her in it.. as she glances up at him, the shadowed of his face from the light behind, she tries to say his name, only to come out with a silent squeak. Covering her eyes with his hand he tilts her head away, as his fangs extend. She feels the graze of them at her neck, as she struggles to push him away. His other hand pushes down her right hand, placing his knee to pin it down as he holds down the other, pinning her hands to the chair. As his fangs sink into her neck, deepen, against her flesh she feels the sinking, the pain, as she lets out a scream. Because this is N.Y. no one even cares for screams.. Don't you just love this place?? Outside a man's voice is heard, "Damn girl shut up!.. Keep your sexual escapades to your self! People trying to eat down here!!" As she feels herself being drained from her, feeling his lips his touch against hers she cries even more. The tears of fear, the tears of pain, the tears of .. you know what I mean. Although he is gentle to her, the pain is still reminant. Knowing not if he's going to kill her this way, or what.. she kicks him in the nuts. As the pain strikes him. Falling down, against he.. coughing out some of her blood. As he growls, looking back up at her. His eyes flash a dull neon, as he is about to attack her again, getting hit over the head, by the handle of a gun. Above stood the man, who was earlier in full black, pulling Garr off of Akari. "Wh.. who.... who are you?? How.. did you get in here??" Akari still in shock her eyes don't leave Garr's semi-unconcious body. "My name.. Is not of yer concern yet, m'dear." From the side glance of him, she can see his hair is long, and a grin crosses his lips. "..you.. talk like.." she is interuptted, the man grabs her by the throat, "you won't remember a thing.." as he begins to move his lips to her neck, slowly licking the blood that is still semi-fresh from her wound. She places her hands on his shirt, and trench trying to push him away, as he seals the wound, "Would you rather die?.." he asks her, as he moves back from her. "WHO ARE YOU!?" He grins at her words, "such a pity, I will miss the questioning" She tilts her head, "oh..your going to kill me now? And what about Garr??" she feels her neck, against the wound, that's smooth, but the reminant of blood still there, and the feel of a bruise. "wh......what.. did you do?" As he lifts up his arm, he closes his eyes, drawing from within, "It doesn't matter.. i did nothing. Garr did nothing.. You knocked him out, when he was trying to kiss you.." Akari tries to stand, "What??... what are you talking about?? I didn't.." interupted again, his hand lounges at her neck pushing her against the wall as he gazes into her eyes, calling upon his displince, to fuck with her head(basically that's what it does.. hahaha...) Staring deep within her eyes, he starts rummaging through her mind without her aware, choking on his hand she struggles, feeling herself hanging against the wall. "mm. What a innocent life, and such corruption could be possesed."

Pulling his hand away she feels herself slowly regaining her conciousness, looking around. No one's there, except Garr, who's coming from her bedroom, looking down at her.. "Akari??.. are you all right?" She gathers herself up as she stands.. looking at him, as she rubs her neck, "I .. think I hurt myself.. how.. did I get on the floor?.. I . remember talking to Angel.. " Garr places his hands to her side as he looks concerned.. looking at her neck, and then holds her close. "I was worried when I had awoke, you weren't.." A knock on the door interrupts him, as his eyes glance, towards the door.. "I'd better get that.. were you expecting someone?" As he leaves her arms, she sits down on the chair, a chill runs up her back, she leans forward in the chair, knows not what this strange feel is.. but feels a re-occurring feel of this chair, and something that had happened in it. As the door opens up, Garr speaks to a police officer.. Letting them in, Akari turns to them. One of the policemen knew Garr, as Garr knew him.. he was tainted with the blood. This cop was trying to tell the "rookie" everything was all right and that they should leave. A ghoul of the state knows better than to interfere with the proceedings of a vampire. Only the rookies get killed in this line of work. Unless.. it's so. As they leave Garr motions a gesture to the cop, as he grins slightly. The rookie was too curious, so for later tonight, he'll be awarded. As Garr walks towards Akari, he kneels down and kisses her left knee.. As he tries to smile some, "Are you all right now?" She nods some.. "I.. need to call Angel back.. I remember being on the phone with her." Garr nods, as he picks up the phone and dials in her number, handing it to her. "Angel?.." Angel's voice, "Oh my god.. I was worried so much.. Did the police ever show it? It's been almost an hour and a half? Is everything all right???" Garr stands up as he begins to rub his right temple, and upper eye. Listening in on the conversation, though standing across the room. "Well. They did, but. I think.. all that happened was i slipped and bumped my neck against the chair.. or something. It really hurts still." Angel, "Then.. how did the phone hang up?" "I might of pulled it out of the socket, when falling.. I'm sorry about that Angel.. for worrying you so much." Angel, "It's okay.. Where's Garr?.. " " He's right across from me.. He was worried too.. I seemed to of been the highlight of the evening. I'm sorry." Angel, "Well. I have to go and try to take a bath, with this bum leg. I'll talk to you two later, all right? You have a good one." As they both hang up the phone, Garr pulls out his wallet, on chain, out and starts to rummage through the pockets.. "You want to get something to eat?" his mind not looking at food, but for a sketch.. trying to remember who this man was, and if it was him who knocked him out, during feed and threw his ass into the shower. "I'll need to go take a shower.. You can order something.. I'll be right back out.. just feeling strange right now." Garr nods slowly.. noticing a small spot of blood on the collar of her shirt.. great.

As he picks up the phone, he begins to dial out for Japanese.. At some resturant where they sell some fricken good damn sushi. (I keep pronouncing such with a extra "h" like .. shushi. Isn't that lovely..?) About 15 minutes past as the smell of her shampoo, conditioner, body wash fills his smell.. as he sits in her bedroom, kicking his hack, while sitting on her bed. A grin crosses his face as he smells such sweet essence came through her door, which she is unknown that he can. Was probably hoping to surprise him.. Seeing how she hasn't used this before. (what.. can't a guy dream?) The sweet smell of papaya, rasberry, and a hint of blackberries, with the shampoo, the smell of vanilla, the conditioner.. no scent.(haha. i suck.. dreaming of such thing, the essence fills my thoughts and senses.. then corrupted by my boss's cigarette.. *End Transmission, 5:30pm. off-line*) As he begins to lay back, the door was knocked on, as he raises back up. And out the room, shutting it to go to the front room. Opening the front door, there�s a greasy short Asian male, speaking in a pigeon English fashion. �Tat wood be whorteen dawwas an fifteen cents.� (Okay.. okay. Not pigeon English, but still!) Garr pulls out his wallet and pays the guy, with a tip, for the laugh. As he brings it to the table, starting to unpack. Akari enter the living room moments later, to find that Garr had set up a small area on he floor, as he set a mat for the sushi to sit upon. Small dishes holding an amount of soy sauce, a saucer with a bit of wasabi and ginger. �Now.. wait.. What made you decide to do this?� Akari walks around the couch and looks at him, who�s leaning over on his left elbow, looking up at her. �Oh. Just felt the need to pretend we�re dining out. Oh. By the way. You smell lovely.� She smiles as she kneels down and glances at him, then the food. �Thank you.� Her eyes turn back to his as he smiles some up at her. Angel walks out of the kitchen holding a 6 pack of cokes while she hobbles on one leg, the crutch and her will to stay balanced. �And who said, ~ Handicapped can�t do anything ~ Hey Akari, good you got out of the shower, we were worried you�d went down the drain.� She smiles innocently as she sits down, �I know. My appearance here was unexpected, but something made me come here.. (THANK YOU ALOT JOSE I WAS SLEEPING YOU ASSHOLE!)� Akari smiles and nods, �It�s okay, not like anything was going to go on. Hehe.� (Yeah.. Nothing would of happened due to the graphic content that I can come up with is not allowed here. Tolerated or wanted. Thankfully, you have kept me here this long, I thank you all. Hahah.. nothing.. ) As the three sat there and ate peacefully they spoke of many things. And something about some guy named Jeff that Angel constantly spoke of, made the two have ideas that night. (The �crap� end!)
