It had been almost a week since the battle in the gym, and Kalista was ready. She had skipped school for the rest of the week, slinking through town unnoticed by Sorina, Rayne, Lucian, and Amalia, and stocking up on weapons. They all probably thought she was hiding away, moping in her house. Yeah right. Kalista slipped into a pair of black pants with black boots, a black tank top, and a black jacket. Her hair was pulled back into a tight bun, and she was loaded with protective weaponry. She had a knife strapped to each forearm, a gun on her belt, and a few magical surprises clipped her belt, along with two stakes, one strapped to the inside of each boot. She was most certainly ready. Silently, she slipped out of her house and into the dead of the night, slinking through the shadows on silent feet. The only thing Kalista worried about was Sorina or the others popping up and trying to help her. Kalista had a strange, nagging feeling that that was exactly what was going to happen. Not two minutes later, Kailsta ducked her head for a moment to slip under a low tree branch, and ran right into someone. She stiffened for an instant, then straightened up quickly, casually hiding the gun under the edge of her jacket.

{Lucian} I stiffened in surprise as I felt someone bump into me - after all, here, it could be anyone. Or anything. The surprise lasted only a moment though, which was about the amount of time it took to place the girl's face. I smirked, crossed my arms, and tilted my head at her. My trademark expression. "You know, Amenia at night is a very perilous place for humans," I said lightly. My eyes flicked over the dark clothing and weapons, and I smirked. "Though you do look fit for battle."
OOC}} I chose Lucian, cuz Lucian is awesomeness XD

Kalista gave him a dry, half smirk, no humor tracing her features. To be honest, she was still a little wary of him, but she showed no signs of it. "That's because I am. I figured I'd go take out my wrath on a certain person whom I hate with a vengeance, then, o the off chance I live through it, I figured I'd buy some ice cream and watch a movie." Her smirk widened. "So, I'll just be off now. If I don't come back, you can tell Sorina I said hi." Kalista started to walk around him, fully expecting him to just let her go. After all, he didn't seem to like her much. {OOC} He is.

I rolled my eyes and moved quickly, effectively blocking her path. I crossed my arms firmly, my eyes narrowed. "Yeah, honestly, I don't really care what happens to you, but if I just let you go off on a suicide mission, Sunny will kill me."

"I'm really not in the mood for this right now, Lucian. Sure, there's a 99.9% chance that il die, but hey, I've still got that .1% chance that I'll live. It's not that unlikely that I'll live, what with how I've so easily cheated death so many times. So, please let me go. I've got at least a couple dozen weapons on me, about half of those are charmed by a witch who so kindly did it for free over the last two days." Once again, I moved around him, running as quickly as I could. Since I took him by surprise, I was already a hundred or so feet down the street.

I blinked slightly in surprise, then growled and sped up, breaking into a sort of casual lope, but not a run. I didn't really need to flat-out run to catch her. I spun her around from behind, keeping a tight grip on her arm to hold her in place this time, though not quite as crushing as before. I sighed. "Look, it seems I'm obligated to protect a lot of people here, and you seem to be one of them. So. I'm not going to turn you back, because I have no purpose doing that. But I will assist you."

"No way. No freaking way." Kalista narrowed her eyes. "There is no way in the world I would let you of all people help me."
Jace sauntered out from the shadows, followed by Amalia. "Then would you accept our help?" He smirked lazily.
Kalista sighed in complete exasperation. "You know, I dislike you more that I dislike Lucian, so your answer is no. The only person I would even consider letting help me is Sorina. She doesn't get on my nerves as much." Kalista glared up at Lucian. "Let me go. You've got no responsibility over me. If I choose to go kill myself, you have no say in the matter."

{Lucian} I shrugged and stepped back, spreading my hands slightly. "Whatever. I tried," I growled, turning to walk away. Only to run smack into Sorina.
{Sorina} I crossed my arms, my gaze flicking between Kalista, Jace, Amalia, and - of course - Lucian. The of course because the freaking egomaniac seemed to be in the middle of any trouble I ever found. "What the hell is going on?" I growled. Lucian crossed his arms. "Your little human friend is on a suicide mission here, that's what," he said in his usual cold, level voice. I glared fiercely at him and turned to look at Kalista instead. "What's going on?" I repeated.

I crossed my arms, rolling my eyes. With a huge, pointed sigh, I re-explained. "I'm off to go take out my wrath on the person I hate with a vengeance, then go get ice cream and watch a movie. And I do have a chance of living, sure it's a point one percent chance, but I have a knack for cheating death. I ran in to Lucian, unfortunately, and he tried to stop me, then he wanted to help me, which led to the bloodsucker and the mind reader appearing and offering to help too. I declined, obviously, because I don't want help. Then I said you were the only one I'd even consider letting help, because you are not annoying.
"I'm sorry, Sunshine, but I'm going to follow you whether ulyou like it or not." Jace grinned.
"Shut up.....wait, Sunshine? Oh come on! You gave me a nickname?" Kalista groaned.

OOC}} LOL Sorina had pretty much the exact same reaction when Lucian first nicknamed her. "SUNNY? You're NICKNAMING me?"
BIC}} {Lucian} I sighed and rolled my eyes. "Yeah, and I think I speak for Sunny when I say that you're not going to shake us off, either," I said, shrugging. Sunny smirked. She really was getting a lot like me. "Yeah, and I'd like to see you try to escape two werewolves and two vampires," she said dryly.

"Seriously? I didn't mean that I'd actually let Sorina help!" Kalista grumbled. "And if MR. High and Mighty here hadn't been sneaking around the neighborhood, I'd be nearly done with killing he who shall not be named, and heading out for ice cream. But no, he was slinking through the shadows." She gave Lucian a death glare, then whipped around, stalking off down the middle of the street. She figured that since they were following her anyways, there'd be no need for caution. Beside, if anyone dared cross her path at that moment, they'd be sorry.
Jace smirked. "Chill Sunshine." He followed close behind her, Amalia right beside him.

{Sorina} I shrugged. "Lucian does tend to lurk. He was lurking the first time we... met." I looked towards him. "You know, when you threatened to kill me." He rolled his eyes. "We've been over this, Sunny. I specifically said I wouldn't kill you." "Whatever." I snorted and quickened my pace until I was walking in stride with Kalista. "So who is it exactly that you're planning to get revenge on?"
OOC}} Lol, actually Lucian didn't actually SAY he wasn't going to kill her... it was actually more like, "If I wanted to kill you, human girl, you'd be dead already."

"He who shall not be named. Ever. His name is poison. I swear, with how annoyed you guys have gotten me, thistle be simple." Kalista snapped, then fell silent.
Jasper smiled, stepping out from the shadows when they turned down a dark alleyway. "Dearest Lista, how I've missed you." He looked exactly like Kalista, except much darker and evil.
"You have not." Kalista spat. "If you had missed me, you wouldn't have stuck me in a coma. Or done any of those things to me." In an instant, she had pulled out her gun. "Now, I'll try this first." She pulled the trigger, the bullet rocket towards her chest.
Jasper dodged the bullet nimbly and smiled coldly at his daughter. "Now that's not a very nice way to greet your father, Lista."
"Good thing you're not." Kalista replied evenly, tossing the gun behind her and watching Jasper warily.

{Lucian} "Great... another bloodsucker," I muttered under my breath, and stepped forward. I smiled brightly, but it lent no warmth to my expression. I was way too sick of these stupid psychopathic vampires. "And you are?" I asked in a cold, level voice.

Jace flicked his hand up and caught the gun easily, watching the confrontation progress with interest. "Yeah Sunshine, who is he?"
"Shut up bloodsucker." Kalista snarled, casually peeling off her jacket to travel her dozens of weapons. "He is He Who Shall Not Be Named."
Jasper laughed. "Lista has not told you? Dear me, I am her father! The most important person in her life."
"No, as I mentioned before, you are not my father. Sure I'm your kin, but you've never been my father. And you never will be." Kalista crossed her arms in barely restrained hatred.
"Well, darling, what ever have I done to earn your hatred?" Jasper leaned against a wall lazily.
"Hmm...oh, I don't know, does strangling me, drowning me, trying to burn me alive, putting me in a coma for two weeks and dealing me various form of abuse ring a bell?" Kalista's voice was filled with venom, hatred evident in the way she stood, and the hardness in her eyes.
"No, I truly am sorry, but I don't remember a thing." He obviously did, for his eyes darkened even more.
"You still have to pay." Kalista spoke coldly, leaping at him unexpectedly, whipping a knife from the sheath on her left forearm. She managed to twist him to the ground and pin him, the knife pressed against his throat. "And trust me, I won't settle for a simple kill. I'm talking torture. A slow, painful death is in store for you."
"Geez Sunshine, you sure can give a person the chills." Jace commented mildly, rather shocked at the sudden change in personality.
"Shut the hell up, bloodsucker." Kalista spoke in an icy tone.
"All right, all right. I'm just saying, you're even scaring me." Jace fell silent at the warning growl from Kalista.
