As music played, a girl wandered around the crowds, pushing her way throug the brutes who stared at her in awe. She squeezed through a tight spot, only to be held by someone else. She was held on her arm, and she looked at the guy. He was cute, but not for her, for he seemed to rather be drunk then finding girls.
"Hey, Sweetcheeks, come with me and we'll play.."
"Oh, no, I'm not going anywhere; not with you, anyway."
She hissed, not like being called petnames.
"Taking all the fun away from it, huh.."
He breathed down her neck, and she winced. He had the most foulest breath she would ever smell in her lifetime. He contineud trying to get her away from the crowds into an alley with no avale. She pulled away the best she could, but, he had a tight grip.
"Lets play cat and mouse. and the cat pounces on the mouse.."
She had enough talk and pulling. She breathed in, and yelled for someone to help her.

A tall dark skinned man that had a purple colored skin tone. He heard a call from below when he sat upon the rooftop. As he looked down, he peered across, scanning and noticed a girl being tooken hostage by a drunkie. He jumped down with great agility and quickly landed softly on his feet, not breaking a bone. He quickly ran silently like an assassain would and looked around the corner the man was about to run to.
He then jumped out in front of them, knowing the big brute was going to run into him. He jumped in quickly, cutting the man's arm to make him open his hand, then grabbed the girl, and pulled her to safety just like a lightning bolt. As soon as they were a safe distance to talk, Zuki said, "Are you alright?" He asked, staring at her with violet eyes.

The man yelped in pain as Karita was being dragged off. She stared at Zuki for a moment.
"I'm fine, thanks.."
She looked away, her blue eyes looking at her wrist the drunk had held onto. She winced with pain, for he had held onto her tight. She looked back at Zuki, rubbing her wrist.
"Once again, thanks for saving me. My name is Karita Vantella, Warrioress to king Jotie."
She bowed, smiling a bit.
"May I ask of your name?? I'd like to know who I can call on when I'm in trouble."

Zuki looked at Karita, then looked back up. "Zuki. Brother of Jotie." He plainly stated and walked over to the large man. He spoke roughly to the man. "What's your damned idea for kidnapping a simple girl?" He growled. When he growled, his teeth glimmered with whiteness, revealing several fangs, exactly like a vampire's teeth.

The man glared at Zuki. He grabbed a Beer Cug, lifting it up above his head, ready to smash it down on Zuki.
~
Karita gasped at Zuki's teeth, then shrugged.
"Kinda cute for a vampire.."
She whispered, smiling. When she saw the Cug raised to a hieght to kill, she grabbed for her spear holder, cursing when she realized she left her spear in her 'home'. She watched the man release the bear cug, and with a quick reaction time, pushed Zuki out of the way before it hit them both. She landed ontop of him, and blushing, quickly got up to stall the man.

Zuki gasped silently and looked up at Karita while he laied on the ground. He quickly got up and brushed himself off. He grabbed the two throwing daggers and threw them very quickly both of them going straight passed Karita's legs, barely missing her and they dug into the man's leg sockets, making him unable to walk for a month more or less. Zuki walked up next to her and looked at the man. He didn't say a word to the woman and just does his job and called to the nearby guards who didn't witness this.
The two guards ran up to Zuki and saluted. "Yes Leutenant Tamaro?" One of the guards said, saluting.
"Take this man to jail. Tell him the junk, do whatever you guys do when you take him there."
"Yes sir." They said and ran over to the man and grabbed him by the arms tightly, dragging him even on the ground.
Zuki turned and looked at the girl. He spoke, but not with harsh words. More of a seemingly calm words. "Why did you tackle me?"

The man didn't struggle, for he was half-asleep.
~
Karita blushed.
"The man was holding one of those beer cegs, those heavy things that can kill people with one blow. I didn't want you dead.."
Karita blushed even more, quickly turning her head away from Zuki. Her gold armour gleamed in the sun as she turned, and the red silk made it look like it wasn't there.

Zuki noticed her blush and wondered why she blushed.
"Well, I wouldn't be killed. I might be hurt for a while, but it's almost impossible to take me out." He said, nodding his head. He crossed his arms and studied her. "Strange we haven't met. You look like you stand out amongst the crowds like me, but I hide in the shadows." He said.

Karita shrugged, still looking away.
"I've been wandering around for a while away from everyone else. Maybe you just didn't look hard enough.."
Karita ran her fingers quickly through her hair, getting rid of a few knots.

Zuki looked around a bit, then spoke to her, unkown to what he was thinking. "Maybe... You could stop by and pay me a visit at the palace?" He asked. "It's quiet in the castle and... I don't think anyone would care if you came..." He then said. "Do you want... to go get something to eat? Maybe some steak? Beef? Pork?" He asked, mostly asking about meats and didn't mention anything about vegetables.

Karita looked once more at Zuki, noting his physical appearence easily.
"Sure. You get it, I'll follow.."
She said, wanting to memorize things about him that others wouldn't bother to. She smiled a bit, not to reassure Zuki, but herself.

Zuki nodded. He still haven't smiled yet and showed no sign of happiness. "Okay. This way." He walked, following the street to the Inn. He rounded several corners, keeping his head down at the ground, keeping his eye constantly away from everyone.

Karita followed easily as everyone stepped back a little. she srugged a bit, and looked at Zuki. Was he mad??
"Hey, Zuki, whats wrong??"
She asked tenderly, moving her hand away after she realized she had put it on his shoulder.

Zuki felt the hand on his shoulder and suddenly felt a blush. "D-Don't touch me..." He stuttered. "I-It's nothing of importance.... I'm just... I'm just taking you out to eat." He quickly said. What is this feeling? He thought to himself. What is this power she possess?
Zuki never felt this way before and shivered at the thought of experiencing something new he has never been to. Which was love.

Karita shrugged a bit, nodding.
"Fine, but, can we maybe eat somewhere away from everyone else? I don't want another drunk hitting on me.."
Karita shivered, only stopping for a secound. She started to walk again, looking carefully at him again.

Zuki nodded. "That's what's going to happen. No one's going to sit near us. I'm like a barrier, pushing away everyone, making them avoid me. Anyone who stays around me thinks that the person are crazy and thinks that the person is going to die the next day. Rumors spread about me that arn't true, but are to my liking." He said to her.
And it was true. Everyone that sees Zuki, they widen their eyes and move away from him. Several others that sees him also tried to pay no attention and walk the opposite way from Zuki.

Karita looked around at everyone, and narrowed her eyes. She ran a bit, now walking beside him.
"I'ts because no one has ever bothered to try and know the person inside you, not out. And, I look at people from a different angle, how they treat people. Not many people treat me kind because I'm different in a way, also. You're one of those few people. And, to me, you're a pretty nice guy.."
Karita smiled, this time to reassure Zuki, not herself.

Zuki glanced up at her like she was crazy. He wanted to say something, but couldn't. Instead, he continued walking on and blushed a bit more. She thinks I'm nice? No one said that to me before! Is she trying to be nice to me? I don't get her... She's... She's... Not like anyone else I met... He thought to himself.

Karita wondered why he was quiet, but, didn't press on much. Her legs ached a bit, but she said nothing.

Finally, they arrived. He continued inside, like nothing was happening, but let the door wide enough so that Karita could step through. He took a seat from the corner from everyone else. People near him got out of the seat and went to sit somewhere else away from him. Zuki looked up at Karita and nodded. "Take a seat." He simply said.
Immediately, a servant walked up to them. "Yes, how may I serve you?" He quickly said to Zuki.
Zuki shook his head. "None for me. It's for her." He nodded forward and the servant widened his eyes as he turned to look at Karita.
"Oh... umm, of course Zuki." he stammered and looked at the girl, still suprised that Zuki's ordering for her and letting someone order first.

Karita walked to the server, wondering why Zuki was acting stranger than when she had first met him.
"Um, a steak, and...a mango.."
She said, eyeing the menu. She sat down, smiling a bit at Zuki. She looked around a bit, then to the floor, her eyes becoming brighter, then back to normal.

Zuki stared at her with wondering eyes. It's the longest he has ever stared at someone that he isn't going to kill. He quickly looked away and closed his eyes. He then leaned against the table with his head on his hand and his elbow on the table.
The Servant nodded. "A-alright. I'll be on my way." He quickly turned around and was about to walk off.
Zuki quickly spoke before he took his leave. "I'll like to have a pint of red wine on 1 rock." He said to the servant.
"Yes sir. I will get them right away." He quickly walked off into the kitchen.
Zuki sighed and looked at Karita again. "Do you want a drink before he returns?" he asked.

"No thanks. I'll be fine."
Karita smiled, rubbing one of her legs with the other.
Please, not now..
She whispered, closing her eyes. She opened them quickly, driving something away in her head.

Zuki looked at her strangely. "What's bothering you?" He asked. He continued to rest his head against his arm and stare at her with wonderment on what she is doing.
Jotie then thought. "If your a warrioress, then where is your weapon?" He then thought back. "Usually they have weapons with them wherever they go."

"Nothing.."
Karita looked at Zuki once more.
"My weapon I usually do carry with me, but, I forgot it at my home."
She looked at Zuki smiling a little while blushing.
