Searching for Daddy

[Jen]

Long white locks came around her face, shielding her ice blue eyes from the street lights. In seeing the lights fade, she brushed it behind her ear. The girl's outfit was much different from normal. She wore a black tank top with the same shade in pants, tight to her body. A trench coat covered her upper half and danced came down to dance around her ankles. The top of each finger was shown, but the bottom and her palms were covered with black material. She was the essense of beauty, and of evil.

Jen was the name she went by, and she was still looking for the one called Daddy. He was her Daddy, even though everyone else called him by that title. They had not been in contact for a long while now, and it was scaring the girl half to death. She needed to get some information on her Daddy's whereabouts, or there would be literal hell to pay.

Hell demons that looked like angels, that was what Jen and Daddy were. The two were pure evil, but the girl was still learning. She picked up pace as she walked, the moon hanging high above her in the sky. Then she took off to a steady jog once she saw a shadow slip into a dark alleyway. Finally, she stood at the entrance to the alley and peered in, giving a small grin. Her feet began to move her in.

As soon as her form was completely engulfed by darkness, something seemed to grab her. She stayed calm, and once her icy eyes opened, she was pressed against a wall, looking straight into blazing red orbs. There was a creature pinning her there, breathing down her pretty neck. It was quickly turned around, though, and Jen had broken bricks to throw it against the wall, it crying in pain as she burned its wrists and shoulders.

"Tell me where Daddy is!" she demanded in a hiss, her body blazing with heat.

"I don't know anything!" it cried in a deep voice, then screamed when its neck started to burn.

"TELL ME, MINION!"

Izual had been curious as to why Jen would leave the house at such a late hour and, having followed her discreetly, he watched from afar as she attempted to beat information from a weaker demon. He approached in silence, also dressed in black, though the colouring of his hair helped to hide him more as opposed to Jen's. He'd found some black clothes from his small, and quite selective, wardrobe that actually seemed very suitable to the occasion.

A black jacket and black pants that were just loose enough to allow ease of movement were his choice of apparel for the night, along with a sturdy pair of black boots that looked like they just might be steel-caps. Despite the weight of his boots, he still easily managed to move towards the demoness he'd been following without making much sound at all.

"Considered the possibility that he might not actually know anything? Some people just aren't good enough to know all the important information..." Izual said calmly as he approached, hands in his pockets and a small smile on his lips. His lavendar eyes were shining brightly in what little moonlight there was, the half-angel finding it terribly amusing and tempting to watch Jen burn this pathetic excuse for a demon to death.

[Jen]

Jen's eyes grew wide as she heard the voice and she dropped the sobbing demon, twirling around with her hands alight with fire. Her eyes were set upon Iual for a moment, then she glared and shot around to pin the larger demon to the ground with her boot digging through his stomach. His hands were on fire just like hers, but he was in incredible pain.

"You know something, minion! I command you to speak!" she boomed, making him beg for mercy in cries and screams.

Finally, she got an answer out of him. "Snake eyes!" he cried out, and those were the last words he said as he spontaniously combusted right before her. The smell of rotting flesh filled the dark alley and she spun back around to walk out of the place before she got sick, grabbing the sleeve of Izual's jacket to tug him along. She was apparently quite angry, and not just because she couldn't find Daddy. Izual had followed her. Of all the nerve, he had followed her!

"What are you doing here?" she whispered as they came back out onto the strets, checking the time by looking up at the position of the moon. She seemed like a completely different person now, so dark and morbid, so cold and uncaring. In some aspects, she was acting like Izual.

[towkarn]

"Wondering the same of you. How could you be sure he had answers for you?" Izual asked, raising a thin eyebrow at the demoness as he walked easily alongside her. His stride was longer than hers, so it was quite simple to move at the same speed and avoid being dragged along like a disobedient dog.

"He didn't look important, nor very knowledgable at all. How did you know?" Izual continued in a calm, quiet voice. Had it been anyone else on any other occasion, Izual most likely would have hospitalised a person for doing exactly what Jen was doing now. Thankfully, he did have some fond feelings for the girl, and he did at least have morals. Besides, if he hurt her at all, she might deny him the one thing he was truly interested in her for.

[Jen]

Jen finally released his jacket and stuffed her hands in her pockets, picking up pace with her walking. Then, she stopped and turned to look at him. "I was born from the deepest pits of hell. I know when minions are holding back information. I know this city. I know their minds." And with those sinister sounding words, she turned back around and took up her hasting walk once more, needing to see a certain man about a certain game. But Izual could probably see the look in ehr eyes, the look that she wanted to cry and scream all at the same time.

[towkarn]

Izual had actually missed the look in her icy blue eyes completely, he was generally more focused on other parts of her body. He still followed after her, keeping at the same pace as the demoness with ease and an underlying grace.

"I'm sorry, that's not quite vague enough for me. Could you be a little less specific?" The half-demon said sarcastically and cast his eyes skyward. Why did people aways have to talk like the one they were talking to should know absolutely everything already? While Izual was nowhere near an idiot, he sometimes had trouble understanding why people did certain things, especially in everyday life.

[Jen]

Jen clenched a fist at that tone and found a vibrant heat emitting from her body. "I love you, Izual..." she said in her normal, sweet tone, but it sounded so deep and thought out. Then she added in a hiss, "That's why I didn't want you to come tonight!" Then, she began to run down the street at the pace of a fast human. She could go much faster, but that would look too obvious. She still needed to get away fast, though. Mostly, she didn't want Izual to get hurt.

[towkarn]

Izual rolled his eyes at the childish antics of the girl, or at least he thought them to be childish. With demonic speed he was soon standing in front of her, arms crossed over his chest and black hair just beginning to settle around him after that burst of speed.

"Would that be similar to that stupid human idiom of 'if you love him, let him go'? Because, really, that's just as stupid as love itself." The half-demon said with a slightly annoyed tone.

[Jen]

Jen stopped dead in ehr trakcs, looking directly into Izual's eyes as he now stood in front of her and spoke. Then her vision blurred with tears and she threw her arms around the man, nuzzling her face into his chest. Her shoulder trembled with silent sobs. How badly she wanted to kill this man for his words, but she just needed someone to hold her right now. Daddy may very well be dead, he could be gone for good, and now Izual was just being a prick. All of it broke her.

[towkarn]

Izual sighed, wrapping his arms around the sobbing demoness. It was actually rather surprising her tears weren't comprised of acid or fire, but it was definitely a good thing they weren't. Izual growled at himself in his mind, deciding he should at least calm the girl.

"Come now, Jen, I didn't mean it. I-" He was going to say "I'm sorry", but the words caught in his throat, so he opted for something else. "I was just worried about you, I didn't mean to be so harsh."

[Jen]

Jen's half gloved hands gripped at his black jacket from behind, the girl almost squeaking as she tried to supress her tears. Her sharp teeth bit down on her bottom lip, and from the eyes of a passerby, it would look at if she were just cold and Izual was merely trying to keep her warm. His words seemed to calm her a little, but she let out a few more tears, trying to rid herself of them before she went in with the big fight.

Finally, she pulled her head away and wiped the tears from her face, her normally pale cheeks quite rosy, making her look pretty cute. She sniffled a little and wiped over her face with a sleeve once more, still holding onto him with one arm. "I love you..." she told him softly once more, looking directly into his eyes with her own sapphire gems. "...and I don't want to see you get hurt because of me..."

[towkarn]

"And if you need my help with whatever you intend to do? Jen, I don't want to lose you, and I can help you. Please, let me help..." He sounded so sincere and sweet, but being the more demonic of the twins made Izual an exceptionally good faker. "Besides, I've been itching for a fight lately, and I was hoping to... get to know some of the other demons in town." He smirked devilishly, his handsome features at the pinnacle of charisma.

His arms were still around her, but the words he used might make it sound like he should be flexing his muscles about now. Only, Izual's muscles were the kind that weren't actually all that impressive, nor intimidating, when flexed. He had long, lean and toned muscles, plus his supernatural strength. It was hard to determine if the twins got their strength and speed from their mother, their father, or a combination of the two. After all, Prinicipalities were the highest order of angels allowed to appear on the mortal plane of existence, so there was no doubt it Izual's mind that they would be far beyond three quarters of the demons on earth in matters of strength and speed.

[Jen]

Jen's eyes fogged once more with tears at those words, feeling her body melt. Then she threw her arms around his neck and kissed him dearly, her heart pounding in her chest. Then she slowly pulled her lips away from him slowly, sniffling as she looked into his wonderful eyes.

"I've always been so afraid of letting someone get involved like this.... I don't want anyone to see me like I was meant to be....." she whispered her words, chocking on them a little. Then she came to kiss him gently once more. She had never been truely in love before, and the way it felt was bittersweet.

[towkarn]

Izual returned the kiss to comfort her. One hand glided through her silken hair, fingers playing with the ends of it lazily. He stared into her eyes for a moment before he could decide what words to use for this instance.

"Jen, I've seen you naked and writhing in ecstacy, I know you're a demon and I'm half-demon myself. I doubt anything about you could surprise me any more than how amazing you feel..." His words were hushed, almost whispered, trailing off at the end as if he were moving into a hypnogogic state.

[Jen]

Jen bit her bottom lip a little more and had to pull away from him to rub her face clean of tears. Then she brought her arms around his waist once more, her cheek pressed against his warm chest. "I feel like such a monster, though..." she whispered, almost inaudibly. Then she brought up her voice a little to make sure he could actually hear her next words. "Hold me before I turn completely demonic..."
