Like I said I'm writing this with a very good friend. He is doing most of the plot work so I'm not totally sure where this is going but I hope you enjoy. Please r&r
After an hour of walking in what seemed like endless circles I finally found it. The worn out sign hung onto the building with only a rusted ring. The paint was faded and just barely readable on the cracked rotting wood. A Pint and A Half was just visible through the decay. I pushed the rusted door open and walked into the bar. I normal won't go into a place like this but my friend had just got a job bar tending here. It looked like a typical bar to me at first.
Dust and dirt showed footprints on the floor. The low lights made strange shadows on the walls. There was a jut box on one side that looked like it was slumped up against the wall as if it to was drunk. On the other side was a pool table where a few guys where playing. The only high light was the bar itself. It looked well kept the wood gleamed in the soft light. I saw Kyle pouring a drink for a girl. I smiled and walked over to him. He saw me and smiled he walked to one end of the bar and I fallowed. I walked past the girl who he had just poured a drink for. She had long brown hair that seemed to have a light hint of red in it. Her skin was ever so slightly tanned but not fake looking. She had on a pair of blue jeans vans and a fitted t-shirt. She turned her head towards me as I walked past. She was absolutely breath taking only in her early twenties probably.
I was surprised by that fact that every guy in the place wasn't trying to buy her a drink. I leaned on the bar and began to talk to Kyle but I was only half paying attention to what he was saying. I kept looking at the girl. One of the guys who had been playing pool began to walk towards her. He had a smug smile on his face and looked like a typical one nightstand guy. He had light brown hair that was cut short and spiked up. By his build I would say he was probably a football player at some university. He looked like he was the kind of guy used to getting what he wanted. He stood so he was facing me and said,
"Hey baby let me buy you a drink." He looked up at me and gave me a smug smile that said she is mine and forget about it. She set down the glass she had been drinking out off and looked at him.
"I don't do bar flies." She said so coldly her words seemed to be made of ice. She turned back to her drink. He only laughed and put an arm around her waist. Her head snapped towards him and she smacked his arm away.
"Come on baby have a little fun." He said giving her a cocky smile. She mumbled something I couldn't quiet hear. His smile fell off his face and he walked away not looking at her or doing anything. I turned to Kyle and asked,
"Who is that girl?" He looked over at her and smiled.
"Take your best shot she's in here about once a week and has never left with anyone." I looked at him with a raised eye brow. This was obviously a challenge that I was not going to let go.
"Twenty bucks says I can buy her a drink." He laughed and shook his head.
"You're on." I stood up and walked over to her and sat on the stool to her right. I smiled and tried to not seem like the other guy. She didn't look at me or anything just kept on looking at the wall.
"Can I buy you a drink?" I asked sincerely. She turned and gave me the same look she had given the other guy. Her bright blue eyes starring directly into my green ones, and for a fraction of a second they flashed to ruby red before going back to their normal blue. I was puzzled for a second but thought it was probably just the lighting in the bar.
"Leave. Now." She said in a stern voice. I raised an eyebrow and she looked surprised and almost scared that I didn't leave like the other guy had.
"What are you?" she said quietly to herself more then to me. She grabbed her jacket that had been lying on the stool next to her and put it on. Confused, I didn't respond before she took my hand.
"Come with me", she said quickly, pulling me off the stool in the process. Man this girl moves fast I thought to myself. I planted my feet.
"Let me get to know you a little", I said, pulling her back towards me. Her eyes turned red again and she motioned her hand in the air. When she pulled her hand down the lights went out. There were sounds of confusion in the bar as she began to pull me towards the back door. I tried to stop her but she seemed stronger, and I couldn't keep her there. She took me out the back exit and pinned me against the brick wall.
"What are you", she demanded as she grabbed my shirt. I grabbed her hands but her grip was like iron.
"Look I don't know what you're talking about." Her eyes glared at me as she began to lift me off the ground. Startled, I couldn't say a word. Her eyes darkened as her grip tightened. I was a good foot off the ground and really starting to freak out, form how she looked there was no way that this girl could pick me up.
"I'll ask you one last time, what are you?" she asked, her voice deeper than usual. What is this chick on I thought desperately.
"He's what I've been looking for," a voice said form behind us. She dropped me and I landed on me feet thankfully. We looked back and saw who it was. It was the loser from the bar who stood there with the same smug look on his face.
"Didn't I tell you to get lost?" she snapped at him, focusing her anger on him now. I looked back and forth at them not sure if I should run or stay.
"Sorry sweet heart, But I'll be needing him before I leave," he said as he slowly walked towards us. I watched her tense as he walked closer.
"Stop right there or I'll make sure you never walk again," she pulled a small blade of her jacket and pointed it towards him. He laughed and rolled his eyes.
"That's cute," he jokingly said. His right arm burst into a dark flame that lit up the alley. As the fire faded his arm was covered in black and red armor. The fire shot out of his hand and formed into a large great sword.
"God dammit." She yelled, "why are you here?" He laughed again.
"Like I said, I want the boy," He said as he charged toward us. I looked at her in shock as she tensed up.
"Who is this guy?" I yelled franticly. She didn't take her eyes off him. She growled out.
"My ex."
