(( Blarg........trying to write a fan fic, but it ain't working. xp Slight inspiration has struck so I have to write. Woo, P4! Sou/Kan))

Kanji rubbed the back of his neck and took a step closer to his senpai, "I-I think I like you." A look of confusion crossed Souji's face as he looked up into Kanji's eyes but the confusion quickly melted into surprise as the bleached blond leaned forward and kissed him softly. The umbrella tumbled to the ground with a loud clatter and the two were quickly becoming drenched in the downpour. Kanji pulled away as sudden as he had kissed Souji, his face red with embarrassment and his heart pounding in his chest. "Sorry," he muttered, turning his eyes away. "I don't know what made me do that."

"Its okay, Kanji-kun," Souji stammered. He swallowed hard, hoping to ease the butterflies in his stomach. "I kinda-"

"Kanji, is that you?" The door to the textile shop slid open and Kanji's mother appeared in the doorway. She looked at Kanji and then at Souji, a soft smile crossing her aged face. "I thought I heard voices! My, you're both soaking wet. Why don't you and your friend come inside to dry off, Kanji."

"Ma," Kanji growled, "senpai has to get home."

Mrs. Tatsumi's eyes sparkled slightly, "He'll have caught a cold by the time he made it back home." She took Souji's hand and smiled, leading the boy into the textile shop as Kanji cursed beneath his breath. "Why don't you call home and tell them where you are. I can get you something warm to drink while you wait for your clothes to dry. Kanji, dear, can you see if we have any clean towels lying around?"

Kanji pushed past the two and disappeared, cursing loudly as he stomped through the house. "You don't have to do this," Souji smiled. "I can get home pretty quick and I don't think Kanji really likes the idea of me staying here."

"Oh, he's taken a shine to you," Mrs. Tatsumi said with a chuckle. Souji could feel his cheeks grow warm as a deep blush crossed his face. "Its always 'Senpai this' or 'Senpai that.' Kanji doesn't have many friends and I'm thinking he really enjoys your company." She led Souji deeper into the shop continuing to talk about Kanji's past and the issues he seemed to have lately. "Why don't you give your family a call. I'll get you something warm to drink and see if Kanji has found a towel for you."

Souji fumbled with his cellphone, muttering to himself as he tried to find a dry spot on his clothes to wipe away the water. Surprisingly Doujima answered the house phone and after a sort conversation told him to make it home as soon as he could; the streets weren't that safe

If anyone has suggestions for ANYTHING, let them be known. I'm more than happy to change things around.

Yomigami The God of Rejuvenation. Restoration is used to fill in missing or broken parts of things. As long as you fill in the broken part, the object will restore itself. I'm think about making it so that, at first, something small can be drawn on some parchment(like a knife) and then it comes to reality...like it poofs into existence.

Tachigami The Celestial Brush of Power Slash. Power Slash is perhaps the most useful of brush techniques, usable in almost every situation. Its cutting power gets upgraded to be able to cut harder objects. I personally don't think much can be added to this......its pretty powerful already. surprised This power will come in slowly. I don't think we need someone cutting through mountains in the beginning, now do we?

Hanagami A Trio of Gods. They each rule over three flora-based techniques: bloom, water lily and vine, which are known collectively as "Greensprout". Another one of those powers I'm not too sure on what exactly to add. Its the power of plant life, which can be pretty good/nasty depending on how one goes about doing it.

Bakugami The Celestial Brush god of the Cherry Bomb. This can be upgraded to produce 3 large bombs in the game. I think I might turn this into an all around, you can create explosives(within reason) type deal. From small little smoke bombs to something that can knock down a wall.

Nuregami The Celestial Brush god of the Waterspout. The control over water is an interesting thing. I'm thinking about expanding it to the point where if there is good cloud coverage you can make it rain or stop.....maybe even pulling water out of things(dehydration....ick). In the end, though, there HAS to be water present for you to use it.....you can't just create it. So, carrying around a jug of water would be good!

Yumigami the Celestial God of the moon. In the game all you could do was make it night. This alone would suck but, with some suggestions, I have figure that you can control ambient light. Make it brighter or darker during the evening and call forth clouds(even during the day) for cover. This is going to be one of those gods that will need suggestion/work to put it on equal ground with the others.

Kazegami The Celestial Brush god of the Galestorm. You can control the wind, which can be a lot of fun. Starting and stopping the wind, causing updrafts, and levitating people. Maybe even pulling their out of their lungs(scary). You will also have the ability to run FAST. I'm going to say that you can run as fast as a horse because giving you Flash like powers would be too much.

Moegami The Celestial Brush god of Inferno. You can command fire. I'm thinking its along similar lines of the water god, though fire may not be as easy to come buy. You may be able to create fire with the smallest spark, eventually 'hold' it, and cause it cease to be. This might need some more work.

Kasugami The Celestial Brush god of the Veil of Mist. You can slow down time for yourself and eventually warp to certain places. This will eventually extend to other people, probably by touch, and I'm thinking about making it so you can have a little more command over time. Short bursts, though.....nothing too long. So you may be able to slow time, make it move faster, and stop it, but for only a short time.

Kabegami The god of the Catwalk. You can walk on walls! I think I'll through in you can walk on NEARLY any surface(yay, walking on the ceiling). Water, lava, and things like that won't work. Again, I'll need suggestions but I think this pretty much covers it.

Gekigami The god of Thunderstorm. Any thing with an electrical charge you can use to produce lightning. Storms, though, are more than likely your only bet and static shock won't work too well unless you really want to play jokes on people. When commanding lightning you can channel it through your weapon.

Itegami The Celestial Brush God of Blizzard. You can freeze objects. surprised I honestly don't know how I could change that. I mean, it sounds cool enough as is. Hrm. You can also summon the other Brush Gods to you with the use of a certain horn(which will be hard to find, bwahaha). Yeah, this one needs work.

I've had this little thing pop in my mind. I might continue this into a story that I've been mulling about but I need to focus on another one........unless the characters become insistent. O_o



She smelt of cheap alcohol and a brand of cheap vanilla perfume, both scents nearly drowned out by the odor of sweaty bodies and more cheap body spray. I had followed her to the bar with the intent of getting her alone but my plans took an interesting turn when two females joined her, friends no doubt. I sat at the bar with their table in sight and focused my senses on her as I stared vacantly into my glass.

The hours slowly passed by and the smell of her perfume was starting to be overpowered by the alcohol on her breath. Her name was Emily, a simple name for a simple young woman. From what I could gather Emily's 'no good boyfriend' had cheated on her only a day before and her friends talked her into coming out to celebrate. None of them left their table to join the mass on the dance floor, even when any of their favorite songs blared over the speakers.

I caught the attention of one of the wandering waitresses, telling her to send Emily a Kiss-In-The-Dark as I slipped her a fifty as payment for the drink and as a tip. I turned my body towards their table and waited, watching as they continued their complaints about men turned to surprised silence as the drink was placed before their recently scorned friend. The waitress motioned towards me and my eyes finally met Emily's.

"Wow, he's a hottie."
"Go and talk to him, Em."
"I don't know; I mean its only been a day."
"So what! He'll be your revenge!"
"Go!"

Emily stood and walked towards me, drink in hand. My eyes never left hers and I gave her a soft smile as I stood and moved towards her. We met in the middle of the floor, our eyes locked and only the sound of the music drifting between us. I could barely see my face reflected in her brown eyes, my image only a shadow in those earthy orbs.

I smiled once more as I took the drink from her hand, "Why don't we get out of here." She didn't protest as I took her hand and led her towards the door, leaving the untouched drink on the bar with a quick smile at the bartender.

We moved down a nearby ally, swerving between trashcans and discarded crates. Emily giggled and said something that was caught by the wind; all I cared about was getting away from security cameras. When I was greeted by the familiar sight of a rundown restaurant I turned to my tipsy friend.

"You know," Emily giggled as she leaned into me, "I've never done this before."

I flashed her a smile. "Just relax and I'll do the rest."

It happened in an instant. Emily was pinned against the wall with a look of silent horror on her face as I bit viciously into her neck. I felt the first spurt of blood hit the back of my throat and tasted cheap alcohol that she had been drinking. She made to attempt to fend me off as I continued to take mouthful after mouthful of her blood and made no sound as her life began to fade. This time I decided to take that life rather then leave her to be found by some random passerby; I didn't know how long it would be before my next meal.




"She was his mate, you idiot." Natasha threw a book at me with a growl. "I thought you would be a little more careful when going into someones territory."

I caught the book by it's cover, closing it softly and placing it on the desk beside me. "She had no brand, how could I tell she belonged to Tristan?"

[I need to get this bit out......its something from a story I'm writing called 'I am the Moon.' Who knows if this will be used but this scene has been playing out in my head]

"My name is Carwyn," he said softly, "that's all you need to know." He turned to look at me and I felt my breath stop in my chest. Carwyn wore a suit reminiscent from the 1890s, pristine and pressed in the deepest of black color. His raven hair sat just below his shoulders, tied back by a crimson ribbon. It was his eyes that seemed to draw me in; they were the deepest of red that one could ever imagine, only showing their bloody hue in the light. He gave me a soft smile and cocked an eyebrow. "Are you all right?"

I felt the heat rising in my cheeks and instinctively hid them beneath my hands. "I-I'm fine." I stuttered. I sifted through my thoughts, hoping to make small talk until The Merlin and Ambrose returned. "Which Arcana do you represent?"

Carwyn's smile widened slightly, those haunting eyes studying me and taking in every curve of my body. "I represent The Devil Arcana." He slowly walked towards me as we locked eyes. "I embody anger, vice, futility, self bondage." Carwyn's voice was soft but it echoed through my mind and held me in my place. I soon found myself being pushed against the wall, his body only inches away from my own; he smelled of lavender. "I also embody temptation, passion, sexuality, and lust."

Those words lingered in my mind as I stared into Carwyn's eyes and my body screamed to be touched by this stranger. His eyebrows twitched as that thought crossed my mind and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. He leaned closer to me, his lips painfully close to my own and his hands hovering over my shoulders; he shuddered as he stood like that for a moment.

"I would have you if I could." Carwyn growled.

I took in a deep breath. "What is stopping you?" I spoke without thinking, my own thoughts slowly frightening me.

"You are The Lady," Carwyn whispered in my ear, "and you pick the one you are with. No man has power over you."

"Please," I murmured, "just a kiss."

Lust flashed through Carwyn's eyes and he crushed my my mouth with his own. I felt him lean into me as I closed my eyes and gave into the passion that raced through my body. His hands ran across my body and he pulled me away from the wall, wrapping me in a strong embrace. Feverishly his kisses moved away from my mouth and towards my neck.

"Carwyn." a voice roared. I let out a shriek and Carwyn wheeled around, letting out a roar of his own that sent a chill down my spine. Standing in the open doorway was a man dressed in what I assumed was ceremonial robes. Most of the stranger's face was hidden beneath the hood of the robe but a pair of yellow eyes glistened through that darkness. "You dare touch The Lady?"

"She gave me consent." Carwyn snarled.

"Until she can protect her mind from the attacks of vampires I will doubt that she gave consent."

"Vampire?" I gasped.

Carwyn composed himself and turned towards me. He smiled, showing his pointed canines without shame. "Yes, my dear, I am a vampire," he motioned to the robed stranger, "and Conor is a werewolf."

Conor lowered his hood, showing a man that looked more wolf than human. "Welcome to Avalon."
