Chapter 1
Blaze walked out of the Magic Box, adjusting her bags shoulder strap. "Damn," it was pitch black outside. She'd looked longer than she'd intended, but she'd managed to get the supplies she needed. She hated being out this late. It wasn't like she couldn't take care of herself. She new a few spells to keep her out of trouble if she ran in to any. But, she couldn't help feel nervous. And, she hated being nervous, because it effected her other senses aswell. She stopped in a doorway, dug a packet of cigarettes out of her pocket, got one out, then went to light it. "Ohhh!" She shook the lighter. It was empty. Great, now the only thing that would calm her nerves remained unlit! She tipped the lighter upside down, then upright again, and tried it once more. All she got was little sparks. She made a face, turned round and threw it in frustration. Then winced as it hit right in the middle of someone's chest. "Oops!"
Angelus had been walking around town. He was supposed to be searching for Willow. She'd told him to meet her and she'd fix him. He just couldn't help but not trust good witch's however. As he walked he noticed a girl walking out of the Magic Box and followed her. She stopped in a doorway and he walked up only to be hit in the chest with a lighter. He grinned all the same and reached in his pocket for a matchbox he'd had.
"Those pesky things never work. I like to stick with a match. They smell so much better."
He struck the match and held it out for her, covering it from the wind with his left hand.
Blaze raised her eyebrow at the comment. "Yeah, well, I've had a really long day, so anything flamey is good." She leant forward and lit her cigarette. "Thanks."
She studied him closely for a few minutes. Her eye twitched slightly and her palms tingled. She slowly looked him over and felt out with all her senses. She raised both of her eyebrows as she returned her gaze to his face. "So, vampire huh?" and she took a drag on her cigarette. She tilted her head to the side, "You're not going to bite me, are you?" she asked with a glint in her eye. She was slightly amused. She needed to have some fun, and besides if he tried to hurt her, she'd just blue flame his ass.
Angelus grinned when she mentioned his being a vampire. So chick had powers. It interested him, and he was no longer thinking of her as food. But more as a possible toy. Angelus didn't have friends. He had toys, people he played with or played with other with, and he had prey and he had obsessions, but those were his only three modes with people. He wasn't a social person.
"Currently it depends which face you speak with. But for the hell of it I'll try to refrain."
