A/N: Ahh… Sorry this chapter took a little longer than the others. I changed the directions 4 different times before settling on this. Hope you enjoy!
Chapter 3: Charmed
Midnight had come mush quicker than anticipated and Eva was becoming irritated as she followed her cousin down the streets of the slums. She never liked this part of town and she never would. Drunks lingered and catcalled the two as they made their way to wherever Sam was leading her to and Eva didn't appreciate it. Eva was positive that Same used the legend as a way to get her to go to a club with her. Eva hated clubs.
Eva was proven right when Sam lead her into a building called Devils Den. Grabbing hold of Sam's jacket so not to loose her, Eva looked around the crowded place. Bodies meshed into one another as people danced and the smell of alcohol only grew the longer they were there.
"Sam, what are we doing here? I thought we were looking for the dark knight." Eve had to yell over the music, it was to loud to hear herself think.
Sam ignored the call as her eyes searched the area for something. Eva assumed it must have been important for Sam to just ignore her. Releasing her cousins jacket, Eva changed directions and headed to the bar. She wasn't legal to drink yet but this was the slums. You could be 14 and given alcohol.
"Hey, bartender!" Eva shouted over the noise. Luckily the bar wasn't crowded like the dance floor so she was only fighting the sound of the music.
Her eyes connected with the man behind the bar and she smiled as she waved him over. He smiled in response and finished serving his current customer before making his way to her. He was handsome, Eva could admit, but not her type. He had the stereotypical blond hair and blue eyes, something Eva found pretty on herself but not handsome on a male. She wanted something different.
"Hey, my name is Daniel and I'll be your bartender for tonight. What can I get for you?"
Eva placed her finger on her lip as she thought about it. She didn't know what she wanted, Sam normally ordered for her. "Something fruity would be good."
"That all you want? Sure you don't want anything else? Like, my number?"
Eva laughed at his attempt. Of course the bartender would hit on her. It's the exact reason she hated bars. "A drink is all."
Eva's eyes remained focused on the bartenders hands as he made her drink. She didn't trust people easily and she was wise to do so. Just as he was finished making her drink he slid a pill into her glass and watched as it dissolved in the liquid. Another reason Eva didn't like clubs like these. Since she was young they thought she was easy to manipulate.
"Actually," She waited until the bartender made his way over to finish talking, "I don't need the drink anymore. Thanks anyway."
Eva moved away from the bar before searching for Sam. Eva felt a sense of relief when she found Sam talking to a complete stranger. One who looked different from every other man in the room. He was uniquely eye catching.
"Sam!"
Sam turned towards Eva at the call of her name and smiled brighter than Eva had ever seen. "Eva, there you are. This is Michael."
Eva smiled at the man and blushed as he took her hand to place a kiss on it. Eva wasn't one for romances but it still felt nice.
"Eva," She shivered as her name left his mouth, "it's a pleasure to meet you."
The blush remained on Eva's cheeks as she stared at the man. He was just so attractive with his dark black hair and yellow eyes. Warning bells went off in Eva's mind as she realized Michaels features were to unique to be human. Hopefully Sam didn't really fall for the charm of this man. "Pleasures mine."
"Samantha, you never told me you had such attractive friends."
Sam giggled like a school girl and Eva almost gagged. It was the most annoying sound she had ever heard. Sam made eye contact with Eva through the laugh and Eva knew instantly that this was her cousins target. Eva didn't know why but she trusted Sam enough to follow her lead.
"Didn't know I had too, I thought I could have you all to myself."
Eva held back a frown as her cousins voice got lower and she leaned up against the demon.
"Well," Eva lowered her voice a few octaves and ran her fingers down Michaels chest, coming to a halt above his belt, "Now that I'm here, you may as well share."
Eva's smile tightened as Michaels arm wrapped around her. "Ladies, there's enough of me to go around. Why don't we go some place quieter to have some fun of our own?"
Eva forced a giggle out along with Sam as Michael led them out of the club.
The air was chilly as they made their way down the cracked sidewalks. People were no longer howling at them but instead passed out, or making out, due to their intoxication. Eva swore she saw a couple having sex in an alleyway.
Glancing down to her watch, Eva noticed it was working on 3 in the morning. She hopped this would end quickly. Her father normally woke up at 5, that left 2 hours to get home and into bed.
She allowed herself to be pulled as Michael led them into a dark ally. Eva rolled her eyes and noticed Sam do the same. Typical devil.
Michael pulled the girls to stand on opposite ends of the wall, they both shared a quick look before the demon turned to look Eva in the eyes. Thinking that Sam was to charmed to make any moves by herself, he placed his hand to cup her jaw and Eva shivered at the feel of his growing nails. That was as far as it needed to go. Without Michael noticing, Eva pulled her gun, which she had stolen from her housemates room, from its holster and jammed the muzzle of the gun into his stomach. She tilted her head in fascination as the demons face paled.
"Stop touching me."
Before Michel could move to make an escape the silver blade of a sword stopped him in his place. As they had been trained, Sam maneuvered her sword to the demons neck. If he moved the wrong way one of two things would happen to him. Either his head would be cut off, or a hole would be blown into his stomach.
"What do you wenches want?"
Sam raised a brow at the change of town and Eva smirked. That was more like it. His tone was no longer smooth, it was scratchy and demonic. His yellow eyes grew into a blood red and Eva knew they had pissed him off.
"We just have a small question for you. If you give us the answers we want we'll be more than willing to let you go."
Michael eyes stayed focused on Eva's and Eva concentrated on Sam. Eva knew better than to look into the eyes of a vampire. Especially when it's eyes bled red.
Eva could see the smirk form on the vampires lips through the corner of her eyes. She knew he was going to be difficult, most devils were. He held no fear of his current position and his back straightened to show it.
"And what, pray tell, do you want to know so badly that you come into my territory to capture me?" Michael was completely oblivions to the situation he was in. He must have known that the sword wouldn't really hurt him, but he also must have thought the woman were stupid. Eve always drenched her bullets in holy water before loading them into the gun. It was a precaution her father had instilled in her and she would be, almost, grateful for that. She would have to remember to replace the original bullets before returning it.
"We're looking for a certain someone and I've heard through the grapevine that you know everyone on this side of town." Sam voice was stern as she spoke and Michael let out a laugh.
Taking a step away from the gun pointed at his midsection, he placed his hand and pushed the blade away from his neck.
His movements were quick as the force used to push the sword away was enough to overpower Sam completely but Eva's reflexes were quicker.
She aimed her gun and fired.
Jackpot
A smirk formed on her lips as the vampire cried out in pain and grabbed at his bleeding leg.
"You damn bitches" He snarled as his fangs grew long. His hand stained black as the blood poured out. He dropped to his knees as he attempted to stop the bleeding wound.
"I would hold my tonge if I was you." Eva moved to position her gun on at the man's temple.
"What do you want?"
Sam moved to stand by Eva with her arms crossed over her chest and Eva narrowed her eyes. If the man had just listened in the first place then he wouldn't be in his current position.
"We're looking for the dark knight."
The snarls quickly stopped and loud laughter took its place. Eva and Sam exchanged a quick glance before focusing on the man on his knees.
"You think I know where that traitor is? He hasn't been seen in years."
San kicked the vampire down to the ground and placed her foot on the still bleeding wound. Eva held back a wince at the scream of pain the devil released.
"Are you lying to us?" Sam had always been better at integration. It was what her training focused on while Eva's focused on annihilation. It's one of the reasons her father would pair the two up if needed.
"No, you wench! If I knew his head would already be on my mantle."
Eva released a sigh and looked at her watch. It was almost four. This was taking way longer than needed. They needed to head home now if they were going to make it on time. Taking a moment to shoot Michael's other leg so he wouldn't be able to follow them she glanced at Sam and tapped her watch. Sam immediately removed her foot from the wound and the two made their way out of the alley.
Before reaching the end Eva turned on her heels to look at the wounded devil and gave him a sweet smile. A glare was her reply.
"Thanks so much for your help."
The man yelled obscurities and Eva turned to catch up to her cousin.
