“Well, this is certainly nice.” I said as I followed Kima's directions to the back. Despite his personal drama, I was confident he'd come with me. I gave a nod to the security that I passed and flipped my hair over my shoulder, revealing the long burn down the side of my face. I never hid it. A few people gave me a few odd looks, but none questioned me, or it. Back here, the music wasn't as loud, and the crowds not as dense, but you could still tell where you were, you never lost that sense. I stepped inbetween one of the partitions and sat down on one end, file layed out and waited for Kima to arrive.
“Would you like a drink miss?” A waitress asked me. I looked up at her and gave a brief nod. “Yes please, a bottle of wine for me and my guest.” I said. She gave me a smile and then walked off to fix the drink. I could hear the whispers of the other conversations going on around me, some bargaining for rare wares, others for people, and even a few trying to get past third base. “Disgusting...” I said calmly. What caught my ear though, were the conversations about me. It seemed at least a few people had heard of me. Not very many though, which was fine by me. I let out a sigh, then leaned back and waited, one leg crossed over the other. Tonight would be interesting, to say the least.

Kima made his way back through the club's dance-floor, maneuvering through the gyrating and dancing masses towards the lounge area. He frowned slightly as he saw the slight change in atmosphere. Here, in the lounge was where deals were made. This is where powerful people settled differences and and forged new alliances, or made new enemies. He had his own share of enemies, and he knew, somewhere back here, the person who ruined his life was.
But not right now.
Right now he had other things on his mind. Like how did this woman get that photo? And how did she know to bring it to him? He walked to the booth she was in and gave her a nod then sat down calmly on the side opposite her. He removed his sunglasses so he could look into her eyes. She had a powerful, demanding gaze, that much was sure. He could see inside her eyes a pure determination and a bottled fury.
He'd have to be careful around this one.
The file was layed out in front of him and he leaned over and looked into it, seeing that picture of the woman with long black hair, barely in frame with her face blurred out.
“So, tell me everything you know about this woman, and tell me now. These days my patience is not as great as it once was, just an FYI.” he said calmly.

I leaned back in my chair and took a sip of my martini to moisten my lips. He was direct, powerful. Just as i'd heard. I let his question sink in some, he seemed to have an idea of what we were looking at, which was surprising, but I couldn't let him know that. So I smiled thinly on my scarred face and pushed some hair out of my face.
“Her name, she only goes by “The Slender Woman.” This is one of the only clear photos of her, I know that much. I also know she is connected to dozens of mutilations in Rural Maine of sheep, and supposedly connected to dozens of disappearances as well.” I said and took another drink.
“The rumor says she has the power of the evil eye. She can make you see your worst fears and drive you insane, or worse, scare you to death.” I looked him in his eyes now, leaning in slightly. “I also know she is supposed to be a former Dragon.”

Daiyu had excused herself from the table she had been sitting at momentarily and made her way toward the back. She needed to "use the restroom" and took advantage of the lengthy line to look around the lounge in a 'bored" manner.
She saw Kass, the way she didn't hide the burn on her face and raised an eyebrow in complete admiration. She herself had been hiding the scar that marked her, perhaps it was time she stopped doing so and let the evil see she had fought, and survived. Her fingers went to the markings on her face as she watched Kima and Kass, moving with the line.
Tucking her long hair behind her ear so she could hear over the noise once close enough, she kept her head bowed and hid the reaction of who the woman was and what exactly was going on. The mention that the woman was an ex-dragon was intriguing to say the least.

Hecate
Hecate was pissed. It showed in the way she stomped through the front doors of the club and down into the pounding music coming from the dance floor. Her face was paler than usual, her thin, long hands clenched into fists.Damn shrink. I'm going to call Ashton to give him an earful for recommending that hack to me.
People hurriedly moved out of her way as she continued to stomp her way to the bar. Pulling off the cherry red wig from her head, revealing her messy black hair, Hecate sighed. The tips of her cow-licked hair were dyed white, which had begun to fade with time. A couple people close to her gave her funny looks as she shoved the wig into her bag, but most looked away with a shrug; they knew better than to bother the tall woman.
"Get me a bottle of water, please." Hecate's voice was strained as she spoke; clearly she'd had a frustrating job that day.I swear, those new guys...it's a wonder they made it this far without getting a tranq dart to the neck. As soon as the bartender returned with her water, she made a bee-line for the bathroom. Underneath her leather jacket was a shirt that was quickly becoming stiff with dry blood..blood that wasn't hers. Spotting Daiyu, she quirked her eyebrows at the woman, a grin inching across her pale lips"Why hello Daiyu. Seeing something you like?"

Laylei stood infront of a tall security team member, her eyes narrowed. She had looked the man up and down, his tan skin and bulging muscles matching well with the all black security uniform. Though his face set more of a 'I don't wanaaa' tone. All Laylei had ask was for him to go into the lounge and if one really had to put it in such a way, yes 'spy' on Kima. It's not like it was the worst thing Lay has ever done! She could so stoop lower, but she didn't because she's a lady.
"I honestly don't care, Ryan. Go into the lounge and just casually stand by Kima and whatsherbitch and pretend to just..guard something! Damnit you're security, you should be happily doing your job, now go! Make sure your ear-piece is on so I can hear what they're saying."
Ryan muttered as her turned on his heel, 'bitch' and 'pain in my ass' passed through his lips quite a few times. Laylei simply rolled her eyes as she walked casually out from behind the bar and into the back room where she could listen into her ear-piece without having to hear crappy house music over it. Oh she just loved being sneaky, it was so much fun!

Kima frowned as he listened to her rattle off basic information. She'd done some homework, that much was definitely obviously. He let out a sigh and glanced over his shoulder. There he was, another "extra" security guard.
But for now he ignored it and closed the file.
"You're right. She's a former dragon, and my sister." he said. "She is dangerous and needs to be stopped." he said plainly. "But now I need to know, what will you get out of this and why do you want her?" he asked.

Daiyu had been so intent on concentrating on the conversation and wrinkling her nose at the obvious spy that laylei had set into place, she hadn't seen Hecate.
So in two simultaneous moments she heard: "Why hello Daiyu. Seeing something you like?" and "You're right. She's a former dragon, and my sister."
She started slightly in shock and her hand flew to her throat as she turned to Hecate "Fuck Heca I was in my own little world" she shook her head slightly and gave the girl a small smile.
"Not really, well I do but she shrugged slightly Not so important so how're you?
Trying to be polite she smiled at Heca before turning to look right at Ryan. She rolled her eyes at the guard, who returned the gesture giving her the look she knew so well regarding laylei and their mutual dislike of the woman. She glanced then at Kima and Kass before moving forward with the line and returning half her attention back to Heca.

Hecate
The tall woman suppressed a laugh as Daiyu cursed at her before relaxing. Remembering the drying blood under her leather jacket, she cleared her throat before inquiring of Daiyu;
"This may sound like a strange question, but you wouldn't happen to have a spare shirt on you, would you?" Checking that no one was watching, she unzipped her jacket and showed the top of her t-shirt, crusted in dried blood"Mine got a little bit dirty, and I could use a new one." Zipping up her jacket again, she followed the scarred woman's gaze over to Kima and the new comer."Huh."
"Not really, well I do but ... Not so important so how're you?
"Heh, I suppose I see what you mean..but that woman seems to be getting fairly cozy with Kima." A smirk danced across her face as a thought occurred to her"Perhaps they're talking about 'business'."

"But now I need to know, what will you get out of this and why do you want her?"
I sat there, deep green eyes staring into Kima's stone cold, stoic face. I began to grin slowly and then leaned back and brushed my hair from my shoulder. I took a small, ladylike drink from my glass and then sat it down. “Mr. Wolf, it's quite simple. This is a high value case, one which could garner me quite a bit of favor with my... little organization. Your sister has killed a lot of our agents, and causing disruptions in our territory for quite some time.” I said and drummed my fingers on the table. “So I merely wish to take care of this issue before someone else does. And who better than you to help me?” I said with a wicked smile on my face now.
“So, will you help me?”
I had noticed the guard, suddenly watching me and just kept on smiling. Best to not let her know I am on to her after all. So I sat there, polite, smiling, and patient.
