Tick tock tick tock, the time flew by. Recently, I just obtained my newest human body. This one I liked more than all of my past bodies. Sunberth really was an intense place. Normally I didn't want to speak with anyone. That's just how I was. Nothing really mattered to me but keeping my body clean and fresh. Many people came and went, that's how Sunberth went. I've seen many people killed. Even I myself died in Sunberth at the age of twenty seven.

I stood out in the open road. My hands found their way up to my head pulling my dark hair into a bun. I watched the roads for passing people but for some reason I couldn't take my eye off this one male. He walked, he was built big. I licked my lips and bit my bottom lip. Before the male could walk past me I took a few steps to the left to stand right in his way and look up to him. He was much taller than me.

I look the male up and down. Today I was bold, I dropped the heavy mace that was in my right hand to the ground to let the male know I wasn't a threat to him at all. My head tilted to the side, thoughts, I thought of something to say. This time around I actually needed someone to speak to. Knowing what I was that was weird. Finally, I manage to let a few words out of the common language.

"You're built there, and you're carrying alot. Planning to go somewhere?:

I sounded like I wanted to steal his belongings, but there was little I thought he could do to me. So I didn't try to correct myself. I look at his belongings, he had nothing of value to me but of course his physical body and what he could do to make ME feel good. After all, I was still a girl and I wanted to at least attempt to live the way I did three hundred years ago. At least I wanted to call myself that, as a Nuit I had no real official gender. But when I was alive, I was born a girl.

"So? Are you going to say anything to me?"

I didn't want him to know exactly what I was. The times I told other males I was a Nuit they all tried to harm me in some way like I was some kind of monster. Never once did I try to hurt a male, I only hurt females for the bodies I need. But, no one seemed to like me after I said the word Nuit. So I kept it to myself for fifty years, I was now a "human."

Slow time dragged on, waning pulling. Xi hauled his weight down the road, his frame dragging as he walked, today he wa on his way to work. Standing head and shoulders above the rest of the crowd. Xi yawned. He was tired, and a lil sore from recent events. Hid mind as on other things as he kept walking, then not paying attention he almost careened into a small girl. What was it with him and not seeing small people ? Then she started for all he could gage to examine him. Dropping her weapon to the ground he looked at him. Was it a sign of surrender or that she didn't want to fight at all ? She spoke, asking him if he was planning on going some where...What did she want, what was she after? Still it was impolite to not answer back.Then she spoke again asking if he was going to say anything...That lit a tiny fire of annoyance. At least let a person speak before you ask if their going to say anything. Now he let his black blue eyes exhume her, taking in every detail he oculd make out. Small, light, blonde hair. Xi sighed as liro poped up triggering some thing in his head. There is some thing not quite right with this one...I cant put my finger on it, but something is definately strange about this one. Liro normally the most unhelpful bastard this time actually was right. Something about her felt off. He couldn't quite pin down what it was but it was strange. Why drop your weapon in sunberth? Surely if she didn't want to fight why would she draw her weapon at all?

"Nowhere in particular. I always walk around like this..." Xi kept his gaze locked on her as he spoke again. His voice slow and some what low. "I there anything you wanted with me? You seem to have made it clear that you wanted to get in my way and then dropped your weapon. That tells me you want something, not violence, but something else." Crossing his arms over his chest he focused on watching her whilst keeping an ear out for other attackers. She might just be a distraction whilst some others sneaked up on him and attacked him from behind.

Typical human, always just talk. They jump to quick conclusions. But the funny part about it was the fact that this one was right about me. I did want something from him. In Sunberth I was known as THAT Nuit. THE Nuit that liked to play games with the males. To test them. Hey, what else did I have to do with myself?

The male had a look on his face, I thought nothing of the look. My left hand found it's way up the the man's right shoulder. I rest my right hand on top of it and take in a deep breath. My hand trails down to his chest where I place my palm flat to feel his heart beat. It was very slow, he wasn't afraid of me. That's what I loved in a male, someone brave. Then again, how could he fear me if he had no idea what I was. I decided to drop a few hints his way.

"There is something else that I desire but first a little tale....

I paused, I had to go about this the right way. Maybe tell it like a story somehow to get the male interested.

"The year two eleven, there was a woman born into violence. Her name was Julianne. She practiced the art of magic something that should never be spoken of, you might think I'm insane but the story is true. She traveled to Sunberth and was murdered by savages in her own tent. Sad isn't it? My name is Jules by the way. Sorry for being rude, nice to meet you."

That was the best hint I could possibly drop to the beautiful man. A smirk formed on my face as I stand, my hands drop back to my sides.

Xi watched her, his eyes following her slowly. The black blue pools of deep darkness and liquid fire looking at her. She stepped closer Xi was a little taken aback. Forwards, very forwards. He could feel her place her and on his shoulder and one over his chest. She was feeling his heart beat...Which amazingly remained slow. Right now his head was a little preoccupied with the thoughts of this being a distraction for him to get attacked, and then she started speaking slowly. She started telling of she was after something but she told him a tale first. Of a woman called julianne...Why was she telling Xi this. This was the first time he'd ever met her. Xi's heart beat slow, as she said it was nice to meet him eventually and that her name was jules...A connection to the woman in the story? I hate, hate, hate, hate, HATE. Playing babysitter. She's coming onto you, a random stranger in the street. Let me out i want some fun, no point in being frugal when theres a beautiful woman before us... Her hands dropped back to her sides as she slid a little backwards.

"I don't mean to sound somewhat strange, but that story you mentioned...Do you perhaps have some relation to the woman in the story. After all you do seem to have similar names. That and magic is kind of a sore subject here. Also you weren't exactly rude just a little forwards...I'm Ximal by the waym, Xi for short." Xi notice the sly little smirk on her face as he tightened his muscles a little, he was already a large framed lean giant. The tensing and show of the muscular physique beneath both a sign of intimidation and power. Now that he had some semblance of his power he could use it more efficiently. He didn't know how fas it could stretch but he knew it increased his speed and strength. Looking down, at her from his height he looked into her eyes. Xi let me out, NOW. I know exactly what to do here. Her mind is ripe for the picking. Let me peer into it. Let the madness consume you... Xi could feel the air around him erupting with the feeling of madness mixing with his air of confusion and calm. He closed his eyes fro a second to force back liros corruptive influence within him.

Have some relation to the woman in the story? He just had no idea. I returned the look, my dark eyes staring right into his. Based on the expression on the male's face I knew he was deep in thought. But that's the only thing I knew. Questions, I thought, he asked if I had relation to the woman in the story. Questions got people killed in Sunberth and I knew it all too well. I replied.

"Relation to the woman? How could that be possible? It happened three hundred years ago."

I decided to keep it to myself for now, but there was something more he spoke of. Magic, something I avoided having to use. I NEVER wanted to use magic. I knew the risks of it and those risks included bringing harm to my current body. That I never wanted. But what harm would telling the man a thing or two about magic do?

"Magic? Oh I know, I've been doing it for hundreds of years."

It slipped out of my mouth, I had a look of worry on my face. I bit my bottom lip. How would Ximal respond to that? I backed up two steps preparing myself for anything. Based on past encounters I was paranoid and I had every right to be. Hopefully he thought I was just some psyco delusional woman. That would be the best thing for me. I held my hand out just in case, would this be the a time I had to turn to magic to keep me safe?

Xi watched the woman before him, something was off only lightly. He couldn't quite put his finger on it. Watching the way she recanted over her story he wondered about her, when she replied she wasn't related to the person from the story. Xi thought nothing more of it, almost completely disregarding it. It might have just been some ploy to get his attention. Though he slip fo the tongue after ward sand the flash of worry over he r face spoke volumes about what was going on but Xi could still not piece it together. He watched her slowly rais her arm in front of him. Was she a mage? If so then it wasn't exactly in her best interests to practice it out here in the open, in front of a crowd of people. Xi looked at her again the deep black blue liquid fire eyes of his meeting the dark eyes of her. Then liro spoke slowly and smoothly. Look if your gonna use magic why not let us get out of sight of the crowed? After all i'd hate to see you get attacked like a lynch mob like i was for being falsely accused." Xi knelt down to recover her mace before offeing it back to her handle first. He smiled lightly, he didn't know where the couple hundred years slip came from because she looked less than twenty-two. holding the mace by it';s head in one hand he gestured around wona small alley with his other before slyly saying. "If you are a mage, would it not be better to be out if site whilst practising it?
