Time: Night Weather: Clear skies Song:
The club scene was never my forte but then again, I was on the trail of the Onisu to destroy them. I had gone into the Lower Commons looking for them. There were two here but this one struck me as the worst one since she could shape shift into anything. And that could cause quite a bit of harm to these weakling humans. Now I was thinking like an Oni. I sighed as I landed on the top of the building known as Club Hype. My body was that of the normal bird. Although I was the size of a small hawk, a bit large for a nightingale. If a person thought about it long enough, what else would you expect from the first nightingale? I broke the mold when I was created. MY beak open and closed as I looked down at the building. It was teaming with life and of course it would be considering it was night time and clubs were only over populated at night. The view from up here was incredible. People were coming here to lose themselves in the club scene, to pretend that they were someone else, to prey upon the rest of humanity, to find warmth, to find love however fleeting, and so many other things. It made me sad that humans pretended to be things that they were not just to feel accepted.
I had chosen the night time since that was the best time for the Onisu to appear. But this would be hard on me. I had to transform and I hated the strain it would put on me to maintain the human form that was gifted to me by my maker. It would just be easier to blend in this way. A bird could go many places, but clubs were not one of them. I could sit out here and wait for the demon to exit and perhaps fight her out here, but I was not the stalking type. Now to think of a plan, I could not just go barging in there like the last two. That was getting to be such a pain that I did not wish to repeat it. Not to mention I kept dragging humans in on it. Well there was that demon summon, but I don’t count him much. So the plan would be to somehow lure the demon into the alleyway or perhaps a less populated place inside to kill it and eat its soul. Though the power that this demon had might cause some issues for me since I was still chaste, not that it mattered much to demons. In fact that might just sweeten the deal with some of them. I would be so out of place with this one, that it might blow my cover. Then I would have to resort to plan B. Which was… well I would think on the fly, pun intended, for that plan.
With so much human life in this one place it would be hard to pretend to be human with the powers I had. It was time. I dove off the edge of the building and into the darkened alleyway. Rule one, do not drink anything offered. Rule two, do not eat anything offered. Rule three, do not engage in pursuits of the flesh. With those in mind, I shifted into my more humanoid form. My long hair falling behind me almost to my thighs, was pulled back behind my ears by two perfect silver and opal butterflies. It was the multicolor of twilight, fading into the soft silver of the moon. Golden hoops swung on my ears almost in a half moon shape. My body was slender and curvy with a flare to my hips and a slim waist, that spoke of my perfectionist creator. My body was covered in a soft white, strapless dress that flared out around my legs. The trim was gold to match the gold of the high heels. The straps on the heels came up above my ankles and were the silver of my butterfly clips. This get up only added to the contrast of my dark hair and slightly tanned skin. The most startling of my features were my eyes. They were the soft silver of the moonlight on a full moon. A man could lose himself forever in those eyes. A soft soothing hum radiated from me almost like a soothing lullabye to an infant. It tended to put people at ease around me.
As I glided out of the alleyway and up to the door, heads in line for the club turned and whispers began. Power trickled from me in the form of the hum. I was preparing myself for the fight I was looking for. A smile touched my full red lips as I moved past the line and up to the big human at the door. His jaw was almost on the ground. I looked like I had never been here before or to any club for that matter, an innocent look in a sexy, drop dead gorgeous body. My voice was husky and spoke of the power of my vocal chords. In that instant, those that heard my voice could imagine the beauty of my singing not just my body. “Excuse me, but this is my first time here. Do I go in here?” The doorman just nodded as I smiled and thanked him. My hips swayed with the natural grace of a dancer as I watched his buddy open the door for me and I entered into the lights and sounds of the first floor of the club.
After leaving, the crowd awoke as if from a trance and wondered if they had been cheated by a line jumper. Inside those closes to the door gave me twice overs as I began to move into the mass of human life that the club supported. I looked around almost hesitantly, like I was out of my element and easy prey. I would need to attract my demonic prey by acting as prey myself. Slowly and still with the grace of a talented dancer I moved towards the bar my dress swishing about me as the crowd parted before my movements.

Standing on the balcony of the club, I look out at the masses of people. It felt so good to be back, but I couldn't help but glance down at the back of my right hand. While the coloring remained dormant, I could feel Settozai pulsing as he could feel so much greed within this place and more than that thru him, I felt such desire. Desire... my mind drifts away for a moment...
Thinking back to how I came to return to this realm. I find myself mentally back in the realm known as Yochi Furi. Settozai had manifested into his humanoid form and we were planning my next course of action to raise more funds and units for my growing forces...
Looking over at Settozai, I lament, "This would be so much easier if I could get back to Onitoshi." He looks back at me with a quizzical look and asks how it is that I am from Onitoshi when the Great Guardian of the Dark Gate I smirk and explain my situation to him, "I am not from this realm. In my home realm, the gate to Onitoshi is open and dark spirits are allowed to travel back and forth at will. I was physically brought into existence in a mortal body and lived as a normal human for much of my life. It was a rather interesting experience. When my true father's people found me and opened my eyes to my heritage, I began rebuilding our forces there and thankfully, my cousin is able to lead them in my place, but I need to get back to them, so that I can continue the campaigns that we were on before my departure. Since I have been in this realm, I have been unable to return home to my realm or access Onitoshi. I have been completely cut off from them. Ever since he appeared and brought " Settozai asks when the last time I have tried was and I tell him that I stopped trying a while ago because I saw no point in fighting against my fate. I have started to grow fond of this realm. Life is so much different and also so simple here. He nods to me and tells me that if I want to get this army, then I need to go back because even a small force of demons will be far more efficient and lethal than an army of humans.
My eyes shift over to Settozai and I begin drawing spiritual energy to me as I begin to chant the Portal chant, "Ṭimaṭimānā! Pēśa karanē kē li'ē jagamagāhaṭa... Mujhē vāpasa ghara lē!" Settozai vanishes and the gold coin glows as a large, vibrating column of light surrounds me and I can feel the energy swirling around and growing stronger as I continue to challenge energy into the activation of this void power. My body vanishes and for a moment, I reappear surrounded by water and hovering on a small cliff of land before I find myself engulfed by additional void energy and everything becomes surrounded by a deep fog.
When I emerge from the fog, I find myself standing on top of Psi Voli Luxury Suites in East City. I shimmer from the roof into my apartment. Looking around, I walk over to my closet and notice that my clothes are still there. I snap my fingers and my armor vanishes. I pull an outfit out of a clothing preservation bag and smile. Getting dressed and accessorized quickly, it feels so good to be back in a silk suit. Having my watch and such, I glance at the mirror and for a moment I see my old body standing before me. Shaking my head, things are normal and I smirk at the thought of memories. Vanishing from sight, I decide against an immediate return to Onitoshi. Instead, I feel like going to release some stress and party at Club Hype.
I reappear near the club and walk over to the front of the line. I look at the bouncer at the door and as my eyes meet his, I push a influenced thought into his mind as I walk right by. If there was one benefit about seeing a hallucinated image of my former body, it is that I don't use my name. Walking inside the club, I head up to the balcony and the bouncer doesn't even bother to stop me...
So now I remain here overlooking the club and all of the happy party people dancing the night away and enjoying the night. What I wouldn't give for some bloodwyne right now! Yeah... I'm definitely returning home after this. I need some bloodwyne, ambrosia, and to see one... or two of my Shyr Beis.

As I approached the bar, the bartender looked at me and blinked. My body slid onto one of the stools as the guy behind the counter put down the class he was fixing and moved to in front of me, a smile forming on his face. The woman beside me even gave me a good long look from head to toe as the bartender spoke up. “What’ll it be, miss?” I glanced at the woman and her heated look gave me goose bumps. My silver eyes glancing back to the man in front of me. “Water, if you please” was my polite reply. As he nodded with a disbelieving look, I turned on the chair with the fluidity of the drink I had asked for. My moonlight orbs gazed out across the sea of people as I hoped that I would not be here that long for like Cinderella’s pumpkin, I would change back at the stroke of midnight. I bet prince charming had never counted on Cinderella changing instead of the coach. That little thought brought a larger, teeth showing smile to my kissable lips.
My water soon appeared and I placed a tip on the counter. The money appearing from a small old era purse that was silver silk with the silken cord looped around my wrist. Even my slender digits were painted gold with flecks of silver to match. If I had been an Oni, people might have been in trouble my temptations. As it was I stood in trouble from the temptations that my form posed. A glimpse of a spiritual presence caught the corner of my eye and snagged a look. But the form was gone into the crowd. Sliding from the seat, I took a deep breath and plunged into the throng of dancers following that glowing spirit form. It had yet to take shape. I hoped that I had the right idea for this. My body weaved between couples, around groups, and through the onlookers, some even parting way for me. I was slow to follow since I did not wish to alert the spirit I was following it. I felt a hand on my rounded rear end and ignored it in hopes that it was just a passing fondle. It was and I continued my trek around the building following that soft glow of a soul. Normal humans could not see it and since that was what most of these people were, I just looked like I was wondering aimless around looking for someone.

When I chose Club Hype in lieu of the Sovereign's Delight to make my return to the party scene, I chose this place for the peace and tranquility that it would provide. I had been absent from my duties for months and amongst all the assorted types of the Commons, I could disappear for a while. I noticed different spiritual signatures and even a few former companions that I used to know. The beauty of having a new body is that while the scent might be the same to some, they are unable to believe that their eyes are deceiving them. With this ability to remain virtually invisible in plain sight, I can truly just enjoy the music. I sip on a double shot margarita and remember why oh why I love tequila!
I enjoy and savor the drink though knowing full well that I have not drank tequila in months and while my tolerance has been augmented wonderfully by the spiritual form, in this physical realm body, I am susceptible at a point to the woes of hard liquor intoxication. While there are different ladies that have the potential to catch my eye, my attention is stolen by one in particular, but I keep losing sight of her oblivious to the one following her. The glimpse I caught of her was quite impressive to say the least, but she seems to move so quickly thru the crowd. Even better, she's a spirit... beautiful, fast, and a spirit... I picked a good time to return home!

Finally I catch the spirit in a corner, not really, but I did follow it into a back storage room of this place. Turning around, I locked the door behind me. The spirit ball formed into a more humanoid appearance. A female in black leather pants and black leather vest with nothing under it appeared from the spiritual ball. Her black hair falling to her shoulders as she laughed. Good, Now I could… for a moment I felt myself still as a wave of pleasure overtakes my body. I had been bait obviously. I could not move as I felt myself stiff as a bored. My ears heard my mouth moaning and I could not believe what was happening to me. The woman stalked me as another wave crashed over me and I trembled caught in throes of passion. I had never felt anything like this and I was caught in her web. When she got to me her hand came up to tilt my chin so that she could look into my eyes. She was taller than me by at least six inches. When she spoke her voice was husky with need.
“Well, well. Little Kami. Did you want to dance? Oh wait you can’t speak can you. “ Her hand ran down my cheek as she leaned in, pressing her lips against mine. The feeling made me shiver as deep down, I felt a flutter that soon expanded into a burning need. It burst in flame that threatened to destroy me. Her lips parted mine and I felt her tongue delving into my depths. Soon as I was engulfed with desire, her lips withdrew and she spoke again.
“Did you think I wouldn’t know about you killing the others? I have waited for you to come to me. Now you will pay. I will have my fun with you and then discard your body.” The fiery feeling crested and burned me alive as I my body shivered and shook in its first climax of passion. The spell released me and I sank to the floor panting. Trying to collect my thoughts, I began to mutter a sealing spell since I would need to keep her from doing that to me again. The power began to form around me as she bent down and pulled me up to my feet and then up further. Her hands on my arms, as she shook me to try and break my concentration. But it didn’t work and when she noticed this, she tossed me like a rag doll into the shelves at the back of the storage room. That did break the spell as I crashed into the shelves and they came down around me. With that, I come up with another spell on my lips, “By the heavens, I will bind thee” A thin line of white light snaked out towards her in this small space and wrapped around her binding her for a few moments. She screeched and I knew that someone would eventually hear us. Time to work quickly. “Tonight, you’re reign of lust stops Yokubo.” I state as I glance around for something to use to kill her quickly. My eyes catch one of the knives they used in the kitchen, it was out of a box that had scattered to the four winds. It would have to do. Quickly I snatched it up and came up to her bound form. “I release you from your evil deeds” With that, I slit her throat. It was difficult to do and required strength. But it didn’t take her long to bleed out. When she was done twitching, I released her binding and let her body fall. It disappeared before it hit the ground, leaving the soul floating in mid air. I placed my hand around it and popped it into my mouth, swallowing it. The blood began to smoke and disappear from the floor. I knelt and whispered my prayers asking for forgiveness for the way I had to kill the demon and for the lust and desire I had felt for that brief moment. It would never happen again.

When the spirit moves, I am drawn to follow as if hearing a hypnotizing and melodic song. To be honest, I don't even really feel my feet moving. I walk towards the back staircase to head downstairs and shimmer out of sight when the rotating spotlight in the club moves past me. As my body comes back into focus, I find myself in some small room and there are two attractive female spirits, a knocked over shelf and one of them is approaching with a knife. I feel another pulse go thru my body and as the knife wielding woman approaches, I am compelled to first use my Telekinetix on the knife itself to attempt to knock it out of the woman's hands and second, around roughly the same time, to throw her body away from the leather clad woman.
If successful, Yokubo would look at me and smile as I approach to take her side. Preparing to square off against the attacker of this damsel in distress, something feels off. My right hand begins to pulse and I swear I can hear Settozai's thoughts telling me to walk away. Why would he tell me to do that? I hear another voice in my head that I have not heard in quite some time...
Lucia speaks to me, "Why do you protect her?" Me: "She is in danger." Lucia: "Why are you here?" Me: "I followed my desire, but I don't know for what." Lucia: "Are you in control right now?" Me: "I'm not sure. I have to be."
Settozai chimes in on the conversation, "She is Yokubo, the Lady of Desire. She is an Onisu like me, but given your nature, it is far easier for her to tempt you. You crave lust right now and she is the epitome of it. Snap out of it."
Yokubo notices that her control is waning and she approaches me. When her lips touch mine, I feel a surge of passion flow through my body. My fingers tingle and the hairs on the back of my neck seem to stand on end before my eyes open and glow as they focus on her. The glowing serves as an active nuisance to cause her to open her own eyes. If uninterrupted, the glow of my eyes would change slightly as they pierce into hers pushing a thought of Influence.
My voice is audible enough for the other woman to hear. "Yokubo, you have two options and only two options. You will serve her and submit use of your powers to her command or you will die and your power will still be hers." There is quite a bit of anger beginning to swell up inside of me for being able to be controlled in such a manner. I at least know that I need to strengthen my resolve for sure. I am not sure why I have no inclination to take the power for myself, aside from my worry of being able to influence both greed and desire and the dangers of corruption that it would allow.

OOC: My bad for the delay. Yesterday I was running errands for the Fraternity and last night was the first night of elections were my successor as Prez was picked. Next time, you catch me on messenger, remind me to give you my cell number so you can text me when you don't see me all day. Today, I'll be off and on b/c I have to return to Long Beach for fraternity stuff, but my post should set things up for you to actually keep her as a pocket NPC.

I was caught off guard by the male entering. This must have been a spirit filled day. Another spirit had entered into this fray and it appeared that he was on the Onisu’s side since the knife was knocked from my hand and I was thrown back into wall. I let my transformation go and floated back through the wall in spirit form, also a large nightingale. At least I had time to do that. Settling back onto the floor, my form reshaped as I regained my human form and solidified. My slender hands began to come up as if readying myself to complete the next spell. But the male was speaking to the leather clad Yokubo , so my hands lowered. What was this male spirit doing? Was he Oni or Kami? It was hard to tell at this moment. A sigh was released as I listened to the conversation. It would seem that this spirit was rather powerful since he was making the Onisu known as Yokubo, do his bidding.
My gray orbs watched the two of them and I shook my head. My voice, when I spoke, was soft and lilting like a lullaby and just as soothing. “He is correct. Not that I want your powers. I just don’t want you to use them again. Ever.” I had never thought about using her powers myself. I just wanted to stop her from using them against the weak humans. My eyes followed the woman as she seemed to think about what was asked of her. In her case I wasn’t sure how I would have chosen. But she chose to submit. My ears almost twitched at the now grating voice she held as she said, “I will submit.” What was that phrase? Oh yes, hell hath no fury as a woman scorned. My lips twitched up in a half smile at that thought. Now that she was caught between a rock and hard place, she was going to be sullen and pouty. She turned back into the floating white ball of light and I held out my hand. The light floated to my palm and I encircled it with the slender digits. The light merged with me and I could hear her whisper in my mind. This would be harder to control than the other two. Those two I had consumed so their power was mine without them. She had the power to whisper to me and that was a bit unsettling. I could feel a slight change in my body.
My fingers uncurled to reveal an empty palm, but my figure grew slightly different. There was an air of sexuality I did not have before. My innocence combined with the sexuality of Yokubo was enough to make most men intoxicated with my human form. My gaze turns to the male and I glance to the door. “I’m not sure whether to thank you or berate you for flinging me through the wall. But I figure that the thank you is more in order.” If not stopped, I would take steps toward the locked door as if going to exit.

Having been able to break thru the seduction, with plenty of help, I am glad to be in full control of all of my senses and my own mind once again. When the other one changed from human to animal to human, I thought my mind had begun to play other tricks on me, but I let it go. It was of no real consequence anyway. When Yokubo submits, I smile. I have to admit that I do enjoy the power of the mind. Yokubo reverts to the form of a ball of energy for the woman and is consumed. Oh what I could have done with that power... yeah it is definitely for the best that I do not possess that. Some would probably say that I am enough of a problem without any form of seduction magic to boost that nearly insatiable sensual appetite of mine.
Looking at this woman, she seems to change slightly as she takes in the new spirit. I smirk as I respond to her, "Some women enjoy that sort of thing. Before you go, may I have your name?" I am curious about this woman. "Also, would you care for some wine?" A smile makes its way upon my face as I realize that this is an interesting way for us to get to know each other, but I figure it would be the obvious progression from here.
While I am inside, I have no knowledge that there is another spirit approaching that is coming to seek my attention. Apparently, my spirit signature is detectable even when my physical appearance has changed. I could feel the thoughts focused on me even though I couldn't see where they were coming from. Part of me knows that I need to take this time to escape before whoever is searching for me finds me, but there is something very intriguing about this woman that beckons me to remain and learn more about her. That and this new aire about her is triggering my lust to flare. Of course, it is Yokubo's influence on her... this should definitely be interesting. I focus on the Insight power of my Spiritual Arts to suppress these urges that are growing within me.

The transformation had finally begun to take its told. Before shifting back to bird form, I smile as I stop at the door. Turning on my heel, my dress twirling about me, I execute a perfect, graceful curtsy and then rise. “My name is Aria Serenda Vivace. The Nightingale. And you are?” I reached for the door and twisted the knob after his reply. “A pleasure. Perhaps we may meet again. If you remain in the city” My voice was low and husky as an invitation. With a flurry of silk that was my dress, I exited the back room with a smile, a faint melody playing in the wake of my footsteps, only audible to spirits like myself. Only those that had heard of my creation would know of my name. And with that, I let myself shift into the twilight colored feathered form. My feathers going from the darkest of night at my shoulders and head, fading to the lightest color of twilight on my wings. The color ended in a moonlight silver on my wing tips. A flutter of feathers and I went into my spirit form and floated among the sea of human bodies. Making my way to the door of the club, I exited and flew into the light of the moon making my exit. My voice singing a lullaby as I flew off into the darkness of the night, the wind carrying back to the earth for me.

Aria, huh? Wow, she has a long name. Aria Serenada Vivace. I hope to remember that name. I return the curtsy with a bow and as I rise, I prepare to give her my name in return. "It is a pleasure to meet you, Miss Vivace. My name is..." A column of light forms around me and I vanish from sight. I appear outside of the club and waiting for me is no one. I close my eyes and grin. So it would seem that my presence has been awaited for quite some time now. As figures step out of the shadows in this alley and begin to approach me, my trusted little fey appears next to me and I tell Diocchus telepathically that I am sure that there are more, so I will probably need backup to deal with this. I tell him to find the agents and have them locate me. Diocchus nods and vanishes from sight.
Leaping into the air, I land on the roof above us and smile at the four pursuers dressed in white cloaks. Damn white wings! I just made it back home and they already want to pick a fight. They must be growing desperate to make a move like this. I will have to make it a personal mission now to finally decimate them completely. My body lifts into the air again and thrusts forward into flight heading east. If they wanted me, they would have to catch me! I could probably eliminate one of them right now but I can't afford to get trapped being cocky. Deeper into the Commons where my actions won't be detected...
