A figure walked out of the shadows of the forest. Her boots met the pavement of the seaside town. the moonlight temporarily made her eyes twinkle their bright green color before the clouds shielded the moon from her mischief. She smirked evilly as she stopped walking, resting her hand at her sword's hilt hanging at her right hip, off of her belt. She glanced around, her eyes searching for something. The girl walked on, ruffling her orange hair with her free hand, and walked in the direction of the town square. the mischief in her eyes grew more and more as the town seemed dead silent at her arrival.
The girl stopped besides a small fountain and looked sideways at it. She reached in her pocket and pulled out a gold coin. she placed the coin on her thumb and then flipped it into the fountain. As soon as it plopped into the water a dark, deep voice spoke from behind her but she did not face the owner of the voice.
"Its not a wishing well and you know that coin will be gone before dawn will spread its hell upon this godforsaken town." the man slipped in front of her and leaned in close with a devilish smug look upon his face, "And aren't you a bit old to believe in wishes, my dear?"
She growled and stared into his eyes, static sparking between them, her hand itching to draw her blade. The man notices and lashes out, pulling her hand away from her blade and spinning her around, holding her arm across her body. She snarls and replies sharply "I care not for the stars hide from mankind tonight and one is never too old to believe in anything..." She struggled against his grasp as she ran his lips across her neck
"I've missed you Naomi..." He smirked "Oh is only we weren't in this town. Your skin would feel my fangs upon it."
Naomi balled up her fists and elbowed the man in the face, cracking his nose. she pulled free and kicked him away. She jumped up onto the fountain, his eyes following her every motion and hers doing the same with him. She smirked evilly and licked her lips to taunt him.
"Ah but my love, you have yet to keep that promise! What about yesteryear? Hmm? You had me alone in your own household!" She snickered and jumped off the fountain and stood before him.
The man growled and grabbed her throat softly and pulled her body close "Do not taunt me so! You know quite well that you were stolen from my grasp at the last moment..." He brushed hips lips against her ear and purred "And if not for the eyes watching us... I would take you to my bed and simply devour you..."
She grasped and closed her eyes, smirking "You know that I never stay in one place for too long and I always escape. I seem to have someone watching over me..."
"I'd watch over you as you lay beneath me and we become one i the night and we shall be engulfed..."
Naomi cut him off and mocked him "Oh my, our passions could last lifetimes and forever.." She growled with disgust and struggled once again "Why must you remind me of my doom?!? Is it enough that you can not keep your hands off of me and you smell of death? the only thing I cannot have in this world!!" Her eyes lose their twinkle of mischief only to be replaced with sparks of red, her temper surfacing. "I swear I hate you William! My cold dead heart shall never be yours!"
He thrust her forward, stripping her of her sword and laughed as she stumbled and fell to the ground "Say what you will but one day, Naomi, one day I shall bed you and you will be mine, love or no love from you! I swe..." He stopped short and gasped, wincing, and he looked at his chest. an arrow stuck out of his chest. she yanked it out and turned quickly to face his attacker. Another arrow shot through his eyes, William stumbled backwards and fell back onto Naomi. She held a hand over her mouth in disgust at the arrow.
William laid there, whimpering slightly and twitching from his wound. Her head was turned towards the direction of the origin of the arrows. Naomi wiggled out from under William and dusted herself off. She reached down to grab her blade when something caught her eye. She quickly backflipped, barely dodging an arrow aimed for her. She stood and raised her hands, smirking talking out loud, almost to no one. "If pineapples sang and birds hang from trees..."
A light, airy voice shouts from a rooftop "the world has stopped spinning and bounced upon ye head!" the voice giggled and a thud was heard as a figure jumped from the rooftop "Naomi, I swear if I did not owe ye my life I would strike ye now. Ye are quite cruel for taunting William like that. If ye had a mother she would beat ya with a hickery!"
Naomi rushed forward and embraced the girl as she stepped into the town square, "Piper! Oh my precious precious Piper! I thought you'd be on the other side of the ocean by now! If not from my unattended business here I would be there looking for you..."
Piper shakes her head, pushing Naomi away and looks at William, now trying to pull the arrow out of his eye socket. "Look at 'em. Such a sorry sight for me eyes. His own fault for stealin thin's that ain't his for stealin'." Naomi winced and held the back of her head "and thats for ye. If ye don't behave I'll gladly serve more to ye." Piper looked at Naomi "Ye best get out of here 'fore he heals and steals you away for good. I won't be savin' ye another time from this one." Piper smirks as Naomi did early, them sharing a sense of trouble in their blood. Naomi took Piper's hand and they ran off into the night as William cursed Naomi for wounding him in nore than one way and vowed his vengence
