Call to Arms [Christy] « Thread Started on Jun 30, 2009, 11:02pm »
Ajia was looking and arranging her schedule Currently, Ajia was at The Stigma. In Ajia's oppinion, it's the best club and bar in town. The club was bouncing, though it was getting late so people were making the best of it on out on the dance floor. Ajia started to bite the cap of the pen as she concentrated. With people not requesting an assasanation, Ajia is loosing more money than she usually is.
Sure, Ajia has got tons of money, but Ajia goes where the money goes. Ajia ran her hand through her hair as she sighed. Without assasanations, her schedule is looking quite empty. The Stigma seems like the only place she's ever at.
(BTW: I am leaving tomorrow, July 1st and won't be back till Sunday the 5th.)

Christy was nervous as she entered the club, she was never one for going clubbing. She just never really saw a reason to go into one. She had never touched a drink in her life, and she wasn't -really- looking to hook up with anyone. Not saying that she didn't want to meet someone eventually, she just didn't want to in some random bar.
Her sister Nikkie however was a different story. Nikkie loved to party and seemed to be out every night. Christy always wondered how her little sister got into these places; she was under age after all.
But for the most part, her father forbidded it, He saw that bars was filled with nothing but sin. And his daughters will not be going to such places. Of course Nikkie- the rebellious one, always defied him. And those night would always end up in such huge fights.
Christy sighed, her sister was the reason she was there after all. She wasn't sure why, but deep inside she would find her younger sibling there. Of course she knew that if Nikkie -was- there; her other friends would be there too. It was a huge risk, the blond was putting herself out there. But she cared about her sister, and would do anything to help her get away from those other monsters. That is, if Nikkie wanted her help.
The blond had asked around different places, and was told that she could find someone to help her here at this club. But the thing was, she had no clue how to find this person.
Christy felt a lump in her throat as she stepped in the doorway. The place was way too crowded, people were dancing really close together, almost too close. This made the blond even more nervous. Not to mention she felt out of place in her simple yellow tank top and jeans. All these other women were wearing stuff, way..way.. to revealing. Christy could never wear such things, not saying she didn't think the outfits were pretty. She was just a little more self conscious with her body.
Christy took a deep breath as she tried to squeeze herself between the mesh of bodies. She was being bumped around like a rag doll, and even one time she felt someones hands on her hips. She had to pull herself away from the guy. She could see some seats just ahead and finally escaped the mold of people on the dance floor and headed for one of the tables.
Again, she wasn't exactly sure who too look for so she decided she would just take a seat and relax for a second. Of course most of the tables were taken as well. The blond sighed, but saw one with only one girl sitting there. That had to be better than nothing, Christy smiled as she approached the table. "Hello, are these seats taken?' She finally said with a smile.

Ajia sighed as she served the last drink and collected the money. Ajia really needed to go on a shopping spree, once her paycheck gets in, of course. Looking around the club and around the bar, she noticed an empty table near the bar. Shrugging to herself, she grabbed her schedule and tabs book and walked over to the table, where she took her seat. Looking back at the bar, she noticed that it's perfect to see if anyone tried to do anything funny. Ajia could take them out like that, or let the guard do it so that she wouldn't necessarily be the center of attention. Ajia really had a reputation for fights.
Sitting down, she continued her work. "Hello, are these seats taken?"
Ajia looked up from her work and saw a smiling blonde. From her scent, she smelled very human, and, well, extremely nervous slash scared. Ajia raised an eyebrow and tried to holdback laughter so that the blonde wouldn't feel bad. "No, no one is sitting here," Giving up, Ajia laughed to herself as she looked back down at her work, not really concentrating with the blonde sitting right there. She looked uncomfortable in a club like tihs. "You're pretty new to the clubbing sene aren't ya?" Ajia looked up to the blonde and smiled, "Can I offer you a drink?" She points at the bar with her pen and continued, "On the house."

Christy grinned with embarrasment. "Is it that obvious?" She laughed, she knew whe was out of place, but was it that noticable.. The blond looked around and took a seat. "Yeah, really this is my first time in a club like this, it's a little over whelmeing." She said with a smile.
Christy was glad the girl asked if she wanted a drink, and on the house no doubt. "Oh....sure, A Diet Coke would be just fine.." She said with a grin. Of course she knew that soda wasn't exactly a persons first choice of drinks in a place like this.. But Christy hasn't had a drink of alcohol in her life. Although there was times she was curious about trying some, but she was also afraid. And usually her fears won over her curiosity.
The blond looked around, there was so many people in this place. How in the world would she know who to ask for. She sighed, wishing she would have asked for more information. Her fingers tapped idly on the table as she glanced back over to the bartender. Christy wondered if the young woman would know of anyone that could help her.
Christy dug into her pocket and pulled out a picture of her younger sister. "Excuse me, I was wondering if you might have seen this girl around here by chance. " Christy said holding out her sisters picture. "She's my sister."

Ajia raised an eyebrow at the blonde and couldn't help but give a little laugh. "Ok," Ajia winked and grabbed her paper work and things and went back to the bar. Ajia pulled out a glass from the freezer and set it on the counter. Also pulled out a diet coke from a storage fridge that was right underneathe the counter. Ajia then set the two on a tray and stared at the items thinking. Grinning, Ajia grabbed a bottle of alcohol and set it on the tray as well and walked back to the blonde. The blonde carried a picture in her hand.
"Umm, I don't think I have. Why?" Ajia asked as she set the condiments on the table and placed the tray between her arm and side. She held up a finger to stop her from replying, "Hold that thought. Okay," Ajia pointed at what she had set up in front of the girl. "Diet coke, and an ice cold glass. Wait," Ajia winked before continuing and pointing at the Alcohol, "Just add this to, you know, add some spice. You just add it into your soda and litterally, it'll taste like cherry coke. Won't even taste like there's alcohol in it." Ajia laughed at her brilliant idea. "You're choice," Ajia took her seat and set the tray on the table and urged the girl to tell Ajia about her sister.

Christy watched the bartender, wondering what exactly she was doing. Her eyes glanced down at the tray, and three items on the tray. One of the items was some kind of alcohol, the blond felt a lump in her throat. She was ready to refuse when she was interrupted. Then she heard the word cherry... "Really!? I love Cherry Coke, yes the southern belle was just a sucker for some ice cold Cherry Coke.
She pondered the idea of trying some on the alcohol in her Diet Coke, but still was kinda nervous about it. But this girl was a bartender right? She should know what tastes good and what. Christy's nails tapped the table as she pondered further, what the hell. "Um, ok I think I'll try it.." She finally said with a grin.
She frowned when the brunette said that she hadn't seen her sister, of course she wasn't surprise; hardly anyone has. "Her name is Nichole, but she goes by Nikkie...She's my baby sister.." Christy sighed.. "She ran away from home ten years ago and we...or.. I haven't seen her since. "
Of course she had seen her the night her parents were killed. Nikkie was there watching the whole thing go down. Christy remembered how her little sister did nothing but watch, and then listened to the one thing...She guessed he was in charge or something, because Nikkie did what he said with just a snap of a finger. Christy shook her head... " I think she may be in trouble..."

Ajia smiled at the girls decision. But her smile turned upside down by her next few words. Ajia really felt sorry for her. Ajia had a brother. Sure, they didn't along too well, but Ajia witnessed his last dying moments. That very same night she was turned into what she is now. A vampire.
Ajia furrowed her eyebrows at the girl, "So that's Nikki," Ajia gestured at the picture, "And you're her sister, uhh, I'm sorry, I didn't catch your name." Ajia looked down and nodded, "I'm Ajia," Ajia was lost for words at the moment, she felt sympathetic for her, and she honestly didn't know what she could do. Everyone goes missing at some point. They might not know it, but their loved ones do. Ajia can't help everyone out there, plus, Ajia just met this girl. She sympathized, and was very moved. But that's all she could do. All she would do.
"I'm sorry. If she comes around here I'll be sure to tell her you were looking for her and is very worried," Ajia pulled out her note pad and pen and gave it to the girl, "I'll also give you a call if you would like."
Ajia hesitated before continuing. Everytime Ajia opened her mouth she would close it. She lifted her hands, trying to form words with them. "I don't mean to press, but what exactly kind of trouble do you think she's in?" Aija hoped she hadn't offended or angered the girl in any way. She was too nice to hurt.
