A hostel Place to be  Empty A hostel Place to be

After they had left the underground rooms of the arcade, Maralle and  Solace wondered around until they found a small Hostile that sat out of the way at the end of a dead end street. The place looked like it was about to fall down if it had down been for the couple that was running the hostile for the many  Bohemian looking kids that seem to be spilling out of it on to the slightly busy streets.  All seeming to be from different places but all had the look that they had spent more weeks from a bath than Solace.  Even he looked better than many from the crowd that seemed to hover like bees around the double doors and the steps of the place.
Looking them each over she could see some where new to travel and there luggage seemed brand new for the  time they would spend abroad and all she could do was smile at their stupidity. Still if it was not for their level of  newness she would not be able to get what she wanted from them.
Turning back to smile at  Solace she  then headed towards the small crowd that was wading through the thick unwashed crowd that was their to  sign up for a room. Joining them she smiled  like a bite new teenage on a wonderful trip around the world with her backpack and friends.  
Having the group pay for her way in to the building seemed the easy part now for getting something for Chichi and into their bags for a few things to whip clean and sell as quickly as possible.
Once this hostile was done,she would used the money to get a little further from the  arcade and from the center of town.  

Just like  Maralle had thought the  police where tracking the  card that she had used to pay for the ride to the arcade and this one was taking this job personally it seemed. As the man with a scared face sat in the back of the cab with an old Angels baseball cap cover his almost blood red eyes he spoke to the  driver.

" And this is where you  brought her, the girl I told you about? And she had a dog and a man with her? Not a girl with long blonde hair and green eyes, not this girl here?" he said as he placed the picture of a bright and smiling green eyes girl to the glass behind  the driver to look at.

" Aye, they seemed set to get here but I thought it was odd from the way she was dress that she had any cash on her let alone a card. But them Americans are weird these days. No offense." he told them man in the back set.

" Nonre taking I am not American I just like baseball." the man told him as he stepped out of the cab and stood in front of the busy building that he was sure he would find his answers and the bitch that took his Janet away from him.

After moving stealing a several tablets and a very nice laptop and few cellphones she rushed back out side and took Solace's hand and lead him away from the view of those still outside.
" Got us a room at the back, but its a shared room because its a hostel and I got somethings that will get us some quick cash. " she told him with a wicked smile," So know any good shops that would take this stuff once I clean it?"

Solace gives a look of distaste when Marelle shows him her "Acquisitions". However, knowing full well their lack of money, he tries to compromise"I... I think I know a place that would take them. But only one , okay? And even then, do you think it's wise to stay at the same place as where you stole their things?" He whispers to Marelle.

Had... Had she planned to do this all along? Was this how she sustained herself? She didn't seem the kind that could deal with a normal job, but Solace wasn't sure he could deal with that. But he had grown to like her a lot, and they didn't have money right now.

"Once we've... You've sold the phone, Lets find a more private room. We need to think of a long term plan. I think I may have an idea, but it could be a problem, to say the least. But more in a social sense rather than legal, you know..." Solace whispered into Marelles ear looking rather nervous.

' My stealing bothers you?" She asked him as she leaned into whisper in his ear. Avoiding the looks from others as they moved around them.
"But if the hostel is not to your liking then we can find another place to rest. "
Maralle had other targets in mind to get what she wanted,but it was how she had always gotten the cash for what she needed to keep her head down from humans. Most thought she was just a really good thief unaware of the eons that she had to go through to get that good.  Still if it bothered her new compainion she would keep it from him when she did it.
"Well if we can get rid of the phone I am sure I can find asomeone to take the rest. "She told him with a smile as they walked away from the hostel.

Back at the arcade, the man looked around and asked questions of all that he could see until they politely kicked him out. Causing him to walk the streets asking all he seen if he had seen a young woman with long black hair and a dog. For she seemed to blended in with the. People in the area but yet he feared she was something else.

Recalling the horrid shell  that  he had found in the hospital morgue. Bite marks over her neck and shoulders that seemed to make deep creators in her skin. Shivering he pulled his coat around him more, knowing it was not the cold that bothered him.

"It kinda does bother me. I mean, its not fair to just take their things. They dont deserve to lose it."Solace muttered close to her, to keep their actions hidden. He forced a small smile as he tried to decipher her reaction. It seemed like she was more concerned with his reaction than her own previous action. Had he been romanticising her that much this past day?

"I know we need money. But, like, could you put most of it back?" he looked through the devices and saw the latest iphone"phone this expensives gotta be insured. I cant in good concience let you get away with the rest though. He adds, slowing his words towards the end."Not that I can force you he mutters finally, stopping in his steps as he seemed to be lost in thought.

They did need the money... No. He rid himself of the thought. Taking what you want is... like the keepers. And he'd managed this far. With her, he hoped... he wasnt sure. But he enjoyed her company greatly, and wanted to stay by her. Even if it led him to dark places. He would just have to try and... something?

Why is it getting harder to think? As he tried to justify working with her? He knew she was a thief. But it was okay, right? She was a nice theif. She was good, right?

Solace seems to be lost in his thoughts, and not particularly responding.

Maralle rolled her eyes as she heard him say put most of it back.  Shocked that someone would even say that, she  sighed before watching him start to mubble to himself and after being around a few Nosferatu with that habit. She turned and walked back into the  hostel under the cover of the crowd and returned most of it but a few phones. Spending an extra hour in the  hostel she had collected a few pounds from a few wallets before returning to Solace and Chichi.
" The things you to make me do.... if I get  sainthood, you two are so in trouble." she told him as she pulled her bag over her shoulders and placed her hands on her head and started to walk off before turning back to them.
" Well don't stand there we have to get something to eat for you two... I can hear both your stomach."  she said as a smirk played at the sides of her lips.

Still for her it was better to talk to someone other than the chichi and she was grateful to be with someone that knew the area. Yet she could feel that with this two around it would be a lot harder for her to find a quick mark to steal from.  But she nodded to herself, that would only leave the true tests to her skill which was always more fun for her anyway.
" Come on Solace show me your London while the night is still out." she said before nudging him with her hip to get him to move.

Her words roused him from his dazed state. He'll work on the stealing thing later. For now she asked him something about... Showing london?

"Londons... Pretty big. Like, You realise London is twice as big as New York City, Right?" He looked up, having a think... He had an idea. He knew just where to go and direct her skills. It would take a little research though. He led her away from the crowd"Come, We need food, and the internet so we can discuss which places would be open at night, and then finally find a hostel."

So they went off, solace trying to remember which streets he went down before that had the dim glow of internet café written on them, and the dodgier electronics dealers. He eventually found one, and sold off the Iphone, assuming that to be the only phone they had. they didn't get nearly a quarter of what it was worth, but the guy didn't ask questions.

They found Kebab shop, and there Solace took his fill, and bought some extra mystery meat for Chichi. Solace offered marelle some of his, but inevitably she turned it down. He felt a little awkward being the onlly person eating, so he tried to find out about marelle. "if... If you don't mind my asking, what was your master like? what were you like before you became a... Vampire, I guess"

How awkward it felt to be offered food after so  many years she nodded and was glad that he had gotten some bits for chichi.
" Thank you for getting that for chichi." she told him as  they walked into the internet cafe.
" I was  more of a wall flower even among those that dressed like this. I was fascinated by the others more so the guys that seemed to have heat coming from their glares. "  Maralle told him as she looked up the prices of a new laptop in London as she spoke.
" It was one of this watchers that took an interest in me and I found out just how this world worked.  He was not kind after his first  taste of me, he was not anything like he claimed to be after he turned me. He was cruel wanted me for an army.  I was a good little solider and learned all that he wanted, until the day that I was set free by a hunter. " she told him as she recalled hiding in the shadows watching her master meet his end.
" And you, why the mirrors? Where do they take you anyway?" she asked him.

Listening to her story, He didn't understand all of what she meant. The guys with heat coming from their glares? Perhaps they were recuiters for her fae master. Her Keeper certainly sounded like he got through many. And the hunter? Probably his enemy. He knew there were many, and that some had alliances. Presumably this one was at war with the hunter.

"the place through the mirrors?"He said between bites. Surely she would have been there at least once. maybe it looked different when she did, and she didn't know you could go through mirrors."I heard it called the hedge once. I guess it's the border between the mortal realm and the Keepers realm. Don't you remember going through an unpleasant violent place when you were escaping your master?"

" No the only pain I recall was the first peirce of his fangs into my skin. The rest felt like i was finally waking up from the dead life i was living before. " Maralle said as she took down the prices she was looking for and a few things from a map of the area.
" As for the hunter, he left me alone because he didn't see me. If he had I would have been truly gone from this world, unless he believed in the myth that you  kill the master the rest are saved. " she said as she then pulled up a currency exchange site and hoped that the u.s. dollar hand not gone down too much over the course of  years.

Once she was done, she sat at the  table staring at Solace's hair it was like living fire and all she wanted to do was touch it but she fought herself as she  asked him more questions.
" So mirrors are a door way, I never been to the hedge. I don't think they would allow something nonliving in there. " she said with a questioning look.


At the same time after he was tossed out of the arcade of bothering the patrons with is questions.  He dusted off his jacket and cap and went down the street asking any one if they had seen the  pair of so called love birds and their dog.  When he got a phone call that stopped him in is tracks.
" No, I have not found her, but I am close. I don't know how to repay you for this chance to get revenge for my love." he told the voice on the other end.

" Then don't I will call you when the job is done." the voice said before hanging up the phone.

Wait... did that mean... she wasn't of the fae? There are actual vampires of the night who are completely unrelated to the glamours of Arcadia?

This does explain a thing or two. But solace had no idea of how strange the magics could change a being or how subtly. if she wasn't though, that changed a thing or two.

He sat with his mouth agape as he realised this. Everything made more sense in hindsight, of course. Composing himself, he asked "So... How many of you are there? How true are the legends? Do you actually sleep in coffins?"

He needed to know how safe he was with her. she didn't seem to have much regard for other peoples proterties. And vampires are essetially thieves of life, are they not? But he did like being within her presence. There was something about her confidence, and how much she didn't give a damn. If only he had that freedom. But he doubted he could be trusted with it. It seemed like she couldn't, if solace was honest with himself.

Solace seemed to be held in rapt attention to Marelle and tohse answers she was forrthcoming with.

" You have a look on your face like I am going to reach over and pull you close and bite you." Maralle told him as she  slowly reach over to him and closed his open mouth gently.
" And I slept next to you rather nicely and I didn't drink from you for a second time.  I think around you and chichi I have more self control than most give me created for. " she told him with a smirk as she thought of that lie about the coffins.
" Although there are some that love drama and would do anything to get their meals to level of  scared they like so much.  But my breed we look for fighters the ones in life that really didn't hold back." she told him amazed that he was just as curious about her as she was about him and the tales of the fae.  

" Still we both have to be focused remember we have to get some where before the sun comes up because I unlike you can really die if I am even in the sun again." Maralle told him as she said with her hands now under her chin as she looked at him.

"Well, I supposed that's true enough" Solace muses when Marelle points out she had him at her mercy at more than one point last night
"I guess you're right. You can tell me more abuot yourself later. For now, finding a place to stay." Finishing up with the kebab, throwing it away and wiping his hands as he returns, he seems to have an indea light up his usually bright face even more.
"I just thought of something. That shit who stole my life probably has a nice enough place to live, provided he completed my degree. " Whispering now "For this plan to work I need to know a couple of things. One, How good are you at breaking into places? Two, Are you willing to take what appears to be a normal humans life? It isn't, but he looks normal from what I can tell. If you're okay with both, then I have a plan. Which you no doubt can see as well... He slides over onto the computer and pulls up a facebook page, then an email reader, and goes "Yeah, it's doing what I used to do, and put his address at the bottom of his emails. We know where to go now"

"I am really good with both of those actually." She told him with a smile, liking more and more where this was going.
"So what was your degree in by the way." She asked him as she sat up to get her bag and pet chi on the head as she handed him a pen and paper to write down. The address they where they would be going.
Maralle was still in awe that the stories of fae taking people and trading them  was true. Yet she was ready for the ride , Solace and the fae seemed a much brighter realm then the darkness she was use to. Although they did seems similar is some ways, she was  very eager to see her opponent and the prize of a new place they would be getting back for Solace.
"Lead the way, I just hope it doesn't have to many sun facing windows." She told him as she joked about the windows.

"Okay, it's north london, Primrose Woods... We still have some of that money? Great. Let's grab the tube and head there." Solace said excitedly. His hair was getting messier as he was getting more into this.

practically pulling Marelles arm as he was rushing towards the nearest tube station, his fervour was practically visible. Was his hair actually getting whiter? Or was that just the effect of the streetlights?

Briefly pausing at one of the various shill stands to get a bag to hold Chi-Chi while they were on the tube, he quickly bought a pair of one way tickets from the stand handed one to Marelle.

As the carriage pulled up, they boarded. As always, it was practially filled to the brim in its usual way. It had been a long while since he was this excited. Though he had been rather forceful with marelle on the way here... He turned to check on her. She didn't seem out of breath, but then he realised of course that there is an obvious reason for that. Still, he asked her"Are you okay? Sorry about that. I got a little excited. Shall I get you a... I mean... I was gonna say drink, but maybe not right now. Would you like anything else before we go there?" His cheeks were flushed as he faces Marelle

His hair was going pale white like fire and it was amazing to watch. He was so excited that he literally pulled Maralle along and she was in awe of the strength he had to do that. Even if she was somewhat short she was solid for a vampire.
Once they had the carrier for chichi and they where on the way to the new place.
"I am fine, really the hunger I am the easy this will be fore me. " she told him as she licked her slightly dry lips to hide the blush that had from the surprise.
"Are you okay, with what we are about to do?" She asked him as she smiled up at him as she seen the flush on his face.

"That's... That's a difficult question. I like to think I am. and I really want to fuck him up." He words trailed. why did she have to make him think about it? He knew that the thing had taken his life. But did it do it deliberately? It didn't matter. He wasn't going to back out now. if he did, that would mean accepting that he wasn't the real Peter Day. And the real peter day can compromise, but he wont break now. not after becoming the sun, he won't be put out now.
"Yes. Yes I am."He said confidently. "We're coming up to the our station. Now here's the plan..." When they got out of earshot of the other passengers, he continued "I'll call him from a payphone, get him to go somewhere else. Then we break into his place, and wait for him to get back. Then we jump him. When we've dealt with him, We take rest there. I'll need you to pick up some hair dye that matches its. I don't want to attract too much attention, and a new hair colour might just do it, and I can't be going in and out too often. Then I'll need you to help me set up an accident that will let me stay off its work for long enough while to pick up where it left off." He explained, taking a large breath at the end. "Any Issues?" He asked, a bit more lightly.

"Good plan, but what was your hair color before you when sun bleach blonde?"she asked as she listened to his plan.
She had thought it great until she released that he needed someone to do most of the running during the day.
"But you will have to find someone else for the day time running unless you would mind turning in to a night owl." she asked him as they got off the tram and where headed towards the house.

After talking with a few of the people hanging aroung the neoghboor hoods in the area of the arcade. He had run into people that has seen the girl in the photo, some asking questions about her that he seemed repulsed by but he was glad for the clues. She had been seen there and looking at all the people.
T"this must be her food source. If I wait then I can catch her and kill her." He thought as he sent arayer up that his mission for his love and for that horrible scary man was almost over.
Although he was unaware that his target had moved, and she was more than ready to feed on what ever fae creature that she would find in the house that they now stood up the down the street from.
