OOC- )( PLOT)( Alright , the plot is set in a jazz club known as The Scarlet Rain , it is nine o'clock on a friday , the club is pretty packed , all the tables are pretty much full or being shared , the moon is solar-optic , also known as being of a misty black hue and nearly seeming like its about to loose the reflective capability , The club has a private and a public level , the private on top , the public on bottom. All the people here are humans , not a one is any bit of a supernatural creature , yet what the humans do not know , the staff are all Vampiro or were or whatever , please , if you are going to join , do NOT play a staff member unless you request it to me in PM , there will be two main charachters trying to get all the people from the club , Lio and Vlad , please PM me if you wish to be one of these two , the required post limit will be heavilly Elite modified , if you all don't know what that means , I am reffering to a ten line post limit , yes I know that is kinda hard to keep with , it is in the best interest of the RP , since I am considering how this story is meant to go , please do not PM me requesting to know the storyline and how it all goes , this is freeform , so , in this RP is a fight breaks loose , there will be a true skill match , I have never liked the idea of having to ask someone if I could kill their charachter , since everyone is usually like " NO ! " -__- So , I'm not saying that I'm gonna post the first time and try to kill everyone , it's just in case there is a fight. PLEASE NO SPACE POSTING , if you do not know what that is it is when a person puts a para-space after every sentence to get to the post limit , please , I hate that , I want this to be a good RP for me. You can choose to be a musician and go with the story , this story is a modern/western , there will be a BIG fight I promise you all at the end , not between all of you , just in the storyline , so , another one from Angelo , go ahead , make me cry and want to kill myself..XD ]

OOC: i cant even read ur writing.. how do u expect anyone to join? Can u make is like ALOT bigger by any chance? -.-"

OOC> ok i want to be one of the main characters so do you want me to post a 10 line on what it is i am going to do or what just tell me and i can get ot for you. if not then ill play a person in the club( not staff) or something of the sort. i really respect the idea you have and i would love to be a part of it.

OOC- One problem with being one of the main charachters you will have to have a dark sort of sense to the RP , knowing the secret . but you will have to wait to hold it and tell all the people when I put you in notice , You'll probably get to be Vlad out of the two , He is the more gruesome of the two , Irish in all senses , he carries a thirty inch long silver chain at his side used for chain fighting , if you want I can tell you how chain fighting works too , And yes you'll need to hold the ten line post limit , everyone will , it may get hard , but that's the rule.

OOC : could I perhaps be a waiter or a bartender? Maybe a bodyguard or entrance guardian? I'll stick to the ten line rule.
I'd love to be Lio or are you playing Lio?
I'd love to be in on this one.

OOC- Well , I was planninng to be Lio , so many people are trying to be him , it's a demanding role , I'm gonna have to explain his method of playing guitar and such and all that jazz. You could be a bartender if you want , I request you be Joel , the bartender who Lio talks to all the time , or whatever , I don't care really.

OOC : I'll be whomever you want sweetie. ;)
I'll take the Joel part. I don't want to steal your role. not that I could but anyway.
Could you PM me the info on the Joel char? Or do I make my own charsheet with Joel? I'll Take any part you think fits for me.

OOC- *Blink* AH ! *Runs from Juel from being called sweetie and searches for his impregnable fort of Pixie sticks , marshmellows and dreams !- Alright man , I'll make sure to get it to you soonish.

OOC> thats cool i can play Vlad. i do have a question and it might be the dumbest thing youve heard but what is PM. and are you going to be giving me like a background or do i make it. if i make it do you ahve requests. and what do you want on the character sheet.

OOC- PM is a private message , like the messenger of the site you know. And as for Vlad , He has to have a very dark and gloomy past , a lot of death and such , whatever you want , the idea is for him to be as dark and as cold as possible without being of some other species. The rest you can decide.

OOC> so is he vampire or human.

OOC> and is there anyone that i am supposed to be like really good friends with? same on enemies?

OOC-He's a human , he should be friends with Lio , and a bit with Joel , he has a big thing against blondes , and also , he HATES anyone who plays the saxophone [that will come into play]

First post starts now.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Lio sat calmly in his oak stool with the old model fender acoustic , resting it over his knee. He held it at the neck calmly looking over the crowd with a kind smile , his azure hued eyes sparkling a little. His hair was a dark , misty black color , thus hinting to his eyes. [ I got pics of him , PM me your E-mail adress and you can see him and me , since it's the same pic.] He heard a man's voice request : The end of the World: and smirked a little. " A good choice my friend. " He smiled warmly at the man , know the guy was probably half drunk and about out of cigs. He shook his head one quick time to move the dark ink like silk he knew as hair from his azure violet eyes. The chords were easy enough , his middle finger holding the top E at the fourth fret , His index holding the A at the third and his pinky holding the D at the fifth. He struck the top E twice , then hitting the D , moving to the B and then up to the A striking it three times quickly , he struck the bottom E then the top restarting his pattern He nodded his head a bit looking over his shoulder at the drummer , cueing him with a nod. The drummer started a mellow rhythm upon his heavy bass toms. He looked to the man with the keyboard telling him what he wanted.....the moonlight sonada.His voice was a deep and well toned thing , meant to send chills down the spine and melt either of the sexes hearts.

"Why does the sun go on shining ?
Why does the sea rush to shore ?
Don't they know it's the end of the world ?
'Cause you don't love me any more....."

His hand moved down letting it go from four three and five to six eight and an even six. He immediately started the next stanza giving no time before he jerked his hand back to the original position.

"Why do the birds go on singing ?
Why do the stars glow above ?
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when I lost your love "

He sent his head down and jerked it up vocalizing softly as he gave a little shift to signal the drummer to pick it up , the sonada coming along. He hummed gently to the beat as the drummer sent out a wonderful rap of his snares and he started singing again.

"I wake up in the morning and I wonder
Why everything's the same as it was
I can't understand, no, I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does "

He nodded his fingers moving to the G,B, and E cords , he held them all at the first fret , striking in a G, E, B,E,G,B,B,E,G manner over and over and finally heading back to his beat humming once again and he let out a strengthy tone to his song.

"Why does my heart go on beating ?
Why do these eyes of mine cry ?
Don't they know it's the end of the world ?
It ended when you said goodbye !

Why does my heart go on beating ?
Why do these eyes of mine cry ?
Don't they know it's the end of the world ?
It ended when you said goodbye !! "

He let his voice lengthen out his eyes clasping shut as his entire being shook from his voice irridiating out. The song ended quick , the only thing left was the moonlight sonada fading out.

"

A bartender smiled as Lio played the song. He sang along with it under his breath. A man at the counter asked for a dry martini on the rocks and he nodded with a smile. Still singing along under his breath he turned to the giant mirror behind the bar laden with freshly washed glasses. Joel took a sparkly glass from one of the shelves and almost felt reluctant to give up the nice shiny thing. He looked into the mirror for a second and a blackhaired man with blue eyes stared back at him. Joels looked to be in his late twentys but he felt like he was about 19. Turning back to the man at the counter he poured the martini into the glass right after he put some ice into it. He closed the bottle and swirled it back onto the shelf with grace. Passing the glass to the man he asked.

"Will that be all sir?"His voice sweet as maybe and a smile spread across his face. The man shook his head and Joel gave him the bill.
"Keep the change." Joel almost grinned as he saw the higly polished quarter laying ontop of a one dollar bill. He put all the change into his pocket except for the quarter. Three more people asked for drinks before the song had ended and Joel had poured them all with grace and a smile. When the song had ended Joel had clapped along with the rest of the croud and started humming a song. A woman in a long black dress and a baret walked up to the bar asking for a special drink.
"I'd like a swirled mikawi mix please." She smiled and thought he didn't know the drink. Joel had been in the buisiness for years and knew almost every drink imaginable. He took the seven bottles needed for the drink and poured it out so fast the silver rings on his fingers looked like shimmering blurs attached to a piece of meat in a mixer. when she left he leaned on the counter twirling the shiny quarter with his fingers. The mood in the Scarlet was cool and relaxed as usual when Lio played.

walking in slowly looking at the bouncer."how's businness tonight? ill just take my stuff to the back." walking to the back and finding his locker. the only reason he had a locker was because he always had his weapons on him and he got a locker for his 22 birthday. he wasnt really a talkitive person, except around his family, not his real family obviuosly, but all the people at the Scarlet. walking out of the back room, and entering the club. the music playing with Lio on his guitar. Vlad made a wave gesture at him, then he turned and walked over to the bar. moving some drunk people out of his way. so that he could get his normal drink. (OOC> barkeep what is your name)"hey man let me get the usual. sitting down looking for someone to bump into him. he wasnt in teh mood for any shit tonight. it would have been his fathers 56 birthday today, if it wasnt for his whore of a mother.

OOC> all through the story ill reveal more about my past that i didnt say in my bio.

IC>> grabbing his drink and throwing down a hundred dollars." make me a tab, here is your tip. i know that you getting the good tips tonight."

"Sure thing Vlad." Joel took the hundred and wrote something down on a small paper behind the counter. He mixed the drink he asked for and slid it over the counter towards him. Vlad looked more depressed than usual when he walked in so he'd leave of the lame jokes for a while till he cheered up a little. Joel started sweeping the counter for empty glasses and put them on a tray. Washing them behind the counter in the small sink. His blue eyes sparkled each time he pulled a glass from the sink filled with water. They were so shiny and beautifull. He wondered how he had lasted so long without stealing some glasses. Probably becouse Lio worked here. When he had finished cleaning the glasses he started drying them with a red towel that he found behind the cashregister. He shouted to his collegue Bob that he shold change the beerbarrels and bring up some more champagne. finishing the drying he started putting the glasses back on the shelf infront of the large mirror. He talked to Vlad a bit when he did this.
"So done anything intresting lately?"

He dropped a glass by accident and cought it with his right hand right before it hit the ground. He looked at the glass with his sparkly eyes again in wonder about something unknown to him. He pulled himself out of the thought and put the glass back on the shelf next to all the others.

looking at Joel with a "god damnit" expression." well i havent done anyhting lately except deliver that package for Mr. B. he payed me today for the month." pulling out a fat stack of $100 bills. taking out a pill bottle and taking two out of it and taking them with his drink." well ill talk to you later. tell Lio that ill be upstairs if he wants to talk to me." walking upstairs and seeing all the fat rich bastards with there 20 year old females on there laps rubbing on them. knowing full and well that there wives sat at home and waited for them to get home so that they could get abbused night after night. why should i let this go on they dont deserve this. he walked over to a man who had long shaggy hair and had it back in a pony tail. he looked at Vlad in fright." listen here, and listen good. you leave here right now and go home to your wife. i dont want to see you in here again. you here me. i will personally cut your head off if i see you in here again, and if you think that i am playing try me ass hole." the man got up and ran out down the stairs and out the door. after the woman got up and walked away Vlad sat down on the leather couch and relaxed. he didnt need to stress out over anything tonight. pulling out his rolling tobacco and a paper, he rolled him self a cigg. and smoked it. the sensational smell of his mango tabacco from Germany. after the finally finished the cigg. some people walked up saying "hi" and Vlad waved but didnt pay much attention. alot of his mind was on his father. that facial expression that he made when he was hit with the lawn mower, and my mother just got rid of all his stuff liek he was never around in the first place. she just barried it and told the cops that he had left and i was in shock from it. i didnt talk,eat, move from the spot i was at for weeks. finally i got up and everything was normal again. for the longest time i believed her when she told me he left. and i watched her kill him. after a few years we had moved and i had some new friends and mom got me a dog and i loved that dog so much. then that one day i came home from school and the dog was missing and mom was all dirty like she had been digging in the yard, but she never told me what she was doing. i knew though and again it happen i didnt eat,or anythign for days.

Joel wondered who Mr. B was and came to the thought that it was most likely healthier for him not to wonder about it. Several people ordered drinks the second Vlad left the counter and whent up stairs. Wimps. he thought. These guys would piss their pants if they knew what served them their drinks. He took all the orders with a smile and served them all remembering perfectly who had ordered what and collected his tips and the payed bills. He gave peole their change and rummaged around in his black aporn that he wore over his black jeans and blue shirt.
"I'll hand you that quarter in a second sir." Walking over to the cashregister he opened it with a small key on the chain around his neck. A small treasure of coins was hidden in the back of the register. He took out the dullest worn out quarter he could find and flipped it at the person who needed the change. These damn people are always ripping me clean from my treasure. He stretched out his hand at the coins and thought the better of it. He filled several glasses with ice and put them in the freezer so people could have chilled glasses. Leaning on the counter he waited for Lio to come over for his usual drink.

feeling really tired of all the stuff that had happen to him in his life. it was like noone really cared for him ni his life they all just through him out on his feet and that is why he had to fend for himself for years. he didnt like to tell alot of people about his past, but he had lied about some things in his childhood. after he had came home from school taht day, when he saw his mother all dirty. he went and dug up his dog that night and it wasnt even dead. she had hit it with something to break all his legs. when he found the dog it was half dead, but it was still crying for help. she had put it in a box and nailed it shut. he had to break the box open, crying the whole time because he could here his dog moaning and scratching at the box. after i got the first of 20 nails she had put in it the dog stopped moaning and it had stopped scratching at the box. when he got the box totally open he found his dog had suffocated in the box. the next day he skipped school and stayed home, hiding in the closet of his mothers room. when she got out of the shower and put her work clothes on she went into his room to make sure he had made his bed. when she entered the room all she saw was a rope hanging from above the ceiling and thats when he walked up from behind her and hit her just enough to make her pass out. it took all the strenght taht he had to get her up on the bed and put her head in teh rope. she woke up to him standing in front of her with a razor and her hands tied behind her back. he started by asking some questions." WHY DID YOU KILL MY DOG?"" AND WHY THE FUCK DID YOU KILL MY FATHER?" he stood there with a tear in his eye, but he wipped it away.she started to speak with such ease to her voice," you little mother fucker you let me down so i can beat the shit out of you and then put you in the ground with your dog, and dad." he stood up from the floor where he was sitting and took out the razor and went behind her," you want me to let you free mother." he said with no compassion in his voice. as he said taht she yelled," YOU LET ME GO OR ILL PUT YOU OUT FOR GOOD." when she said that he slit her wrists and untied her hands. she went to grab the rope and take it off, even though her wrists were bleeding perfusly. as she went to grab the rope he pushed the bed out of the way and layed under her squrming body. as he look up at her she looked down at her and the blood was pouring out of her wrists. she stopped moving and jsut hang there. he layed there for days and then the neighbors called and noone answered so they came over and saw the carnage of his mother and him laying under her. they ran up and pulled him from under her and they took him to live with them for awhile. when my mothers funeral came they told him, that he didnt have to go, but he wanted to see the bitches face one last time. after it was over they were all walking out and the band had been playing for the walk out. he heard something playing not knowing what it was. he looked over and it was a saxophone. and it was playing something that my mother had played all the time in the house. i ran over there and beat him to death with it.he told them that he thuoght that the music was happy and thats why he did it. realizing that his drink was empty he stood up and lite another cigg. he went down stairs and went to the bar. to order another drink.

OOC> sorry for such long ass postes. i just write it as it comes to me. and sorry some of it sayes diff. then the bio. the bio was quick. and now i have time to think of other things to make Vled a fucking killer charater

Joel saw Vlad come down the stairs again. a lookd of ice in his eyes as always. He leaned on the bar with his elbows as Vlad took a seat at the counter.
"What can I get you sunshine?" Playing with a shiny penny he started to mix Vlads drink not waiting for him to answer. If he'd order a diffrent one Joel would drink it. Crushing some ice with his bare hands he put it into a glass and poured the drink out into it. He wiped his wet hands on the aporn and proceeded to prepare an ice cream order from a woman. What a busy night. It's was rarely this busy in the bar area of the place as most people danced or hung out talking to friends. It's was packed tonight. Scooping out the vanilla ice he remembered his girl was going to have her birthday in a few days. Vanilla ice was what had been in the cup when they had both grabbed for it at a flea market. She was like him all the way through. Down to the same obsessions with shiny things. She had given him her most prized possesion. Joel played a bit with the silver ring on his finger the red ruby set on it glinted in the light from above the counter. He put the last finishing touches on the ice cream and passed it to the woman. Adding it to her bill he whent back to Vlad waiting for his drink order.

OOC : I love your long posts Bloody. Very deep and well written.
I'm having a bit of trouble being a kindhearted bartender. I'm lonely...
*wipes tear* Snirf... Hey Lio get yo ass ove here so we can get drunk. ;)

OOC> well i am glad that you are enjoying these posts.

IC> sitting at the bar. Joel sent him his drink he downed it and waved for him to keep them coming." hey Joel i actually have somethign for you." pulling out a brand new half dollar fresh off the press. it was still in the wrapper.he handed that to him and then he took a small bottle of polish out of his other pocket. "enjoy buddy." sitting there thinking some more about somethings,but his mind seemed to be clouding up with to many memories that he couldnt think straight." hey Joel how long have we known each other. like 2 or 3 years. how about you get me some of taht ice-cream on the house. make it a big bowl and alot of toppings. i love my chocolate. dont forget my plastic spoon. get me something else that has chocolate in it. i am having a shit day and i need food." not that the food is going to effect him he has always had rock hard abs since he went to the institute." and why dont you take a break or something so that we can talk. we havent talked for a while."moving toward a seat in the back with some people in it. " HEY, get out of my table. i have some businness to take care of." as the people got up and moved with some other people."Joel come on over and take a seat with me."

Joel took the dollar and made a sloppy salute at Vlad.
"Yessir." He pocketed the coin in his chest pocket and started working on his ice cream. He took a large bowl normally used for punch and scooped six overly large perfectly round balls of chocolate icecream into it. Opening the fridge once more he took out strawberries and threw them ontop of the ice. Reaching inside bending his slim body he got out all the toppings he could find. Joel started to add them in no particular order although it lokked like he picked each one carefully. After a while a large tower filled with sprinkles, brownies, chocolate flakes, strawberries and lethal amounts of chocolate whipped cream stood infront of Vlad. Joel added a candy cherry on top and spoke with a smile.
"I shall name it...Chocolate Suicide." He got out the bottle that contained Vlads usual drink and put it next to the bowl with a small shot glass. He walked off to tell his collegue that he was taking a break and came back to Vlad with some chocolate bars on a small tray.

He sat down on the opposite side of him at the table and pulled out the coin. It was a half a dollar more splendorous than he had ever seen before. A real silver dollar fresh from the press. Joel took the wrapper off and examined it. The eagle on one side looked almost real if you moved it under the light. Joel made the coin twirl on the table making it look like a ball of silver. For a very brief moment his eyes grew darker as he saw it shimmer under the light. He put his hand on it and looked at Vlad waiting for him to speak.


OOC : I have a half a dollar coin and its my fav thing to play with.
You psychic?

"well you know just figured that since every time i come in here i see you with some coin in your hand and i had the oppertunity to get this for you 3 years before it is supposed to come out. ill tell you this much it cost me a pretty penny." laughing for the first time in ages at his stupid joke." so Joel how long to you think Lio is goin to sit up there and play. he has been up there for ever.?" taking a bite of his icecream." DAMN... this is the shit. you really know how to make some good stuff. maybe next time i come in here ill have diebeties(<spelling?)." after about 30 minutes of eating on the icecream heaven he finished it." well your right about that i could commit suicide right now and id be the happiest man alive, thank you Joel. you know what today is Joel? today should have been my dads birthday, im sure you have heard the stories so i dont have to go into it and ruin my chocolate high. i actually went to his grave today and i went to my moms grave. i dont quite know why but i did. and it just made all the memories come rushing in like a fucking hurricane. but for that half hour that i was in heaven i forgot all about all that thank you again." as he sat back with some chocolate on his mouth he wipped it away with his napkin and he then cleaned off his plastic spoon and handed it back to Joel."here you can put this back in the back so i can use it again."

"Anytime my man." He took the tray and walked back to the bar. Joel smiled. He had done something most people could not accomplish in their wildest dreams. He had made Vlad smile. Washing the stuff quickly he made some chocolate milk and put some cream in it along with some 95% irish whisky. Drying the dishes his colleague had washed he walked over to Vlad and sat down again sipping his coco.
"Anything worth doing tonight or just a lazy time as usual? I don't think Lio is coming over for a while. You know how he gets when the audience is listening." Sipping from his cup his eyes glinted as the chrome spoon caught the light from a nearby lamp.


OOC : Sorry if this is below the ten line limit but My dad hurried me to go to the hospital.
Had a plate accident with some stairs and dishes. :(

OOC> where the hell are all the people this RP is going to kick some seoius ass, but we need more freakign people to get in on the fun.

IC>> sitting there wishing that he would just get off of stage and some over here.yelling toward the stage."Lio i need to talk to you, get over here." he waited for him to hear him. he prob couldnt hear him. he would have to go and pull his ass off of stage, Lio had been busy with stuff, and hadnt had alot of time to talk to Vlad lately. he hadnt got to tell him anything. thinking to himself." he prob. dosnt even remember that its my dads birthday. that is going to either make or break my day." its not like he had very good days anyway. except for this day. there are only two people who have ever made him smile. his father and now Joel. he wished taht someone would just fucking bump into him, they would be so dead. he pulled out another cigg. and lit it. he loved these smokes. sitting back watching the people around him talk to each other. he knew that he had no friends that would just sit and talk to him. he had something better, he had family that would tell him what to do. that could all change in a matter of hours. he didnt know quite how to take all the stress. smoking didnt help. killing others was wearing off. he could only do one more thing. he looked at the back room towars his guns.

OOC> this should be interesting.....

He sighed a little during the duration of the last song he had to play. He stood calmly handing a man on the side of the stage his guitar , he had almost heard vlad , knowing the voice. He trotted down the stairs calmly , threading through the crowd , tables , chairs , drunk people . He sighed a little and shook his head at it brushing back some hair. He sat down beside Vlad. " Round of Onion Vodka Joel. " Oh , and how did Lio enjoy onion Vodka ! The sweet flavor was much more enjoyable to him , he could realy be happy about it. In truth it didn't matter in his own perspective. He thought for a moment and finally remembered it was Vlad's dad's birthday. He bit his bottom lip and look towards Vlad. " Well , happy birthday to you know who. " He grinned softly , not really liking to remind Vlad of it , he glanced at Joel once or twive , pondering on other things.

He smiled at Lio who had finally joined them.
"Onion vodka it is sir." He laughed a little and whondered how he downed the stuff. He cringed at the thought of such a sweet drink. Pouring the stuff into several glasses he put the bottle on a tray along with some of his irish whiskey and walked over to the table. He was going to propose a toast to Vlads dad but thought some throats would most likely get ripped if he did so. Joel sat down next to Lio and smacked his back with his left hand a broad grin spreading on his face.
"How is all my friend? Having fun playing for all the stiffs?" He laughed laudly as he twirled the silver coin Vlad had given inbetween his fingers not taking his eyes off it. The coin shimmered and twinkled as he spun it with great agility. he could be a good western gunslinger if he found some nice and shiney twin magnums but they were too expensive for his line of work. His sword was the only weapon he had and it was in his locker next to Lios locker.

"thanks Lio," Vlad said sitting there feeling pissed and sad at the same time. he didnt know what to do. watching people around him still wishing he could just kill someone." hey, Lio i really need to release some anger. do yoiu think you could arrange something, just go make an annoucment or something. i dont really care, but i have to fuck someone up. i have just been thinking alot about today, and all the shit that happen. you wanna hear something strange. i went and saw my dad's grave and my mother's grave today. i dont quite know what made me do it. but i didnt feel any better. and Joel here is one of two people that has made me smile in years. he was pretty happy about that." he said as some drunk guy bumped into Vlad,spilling beer all over his new shirt. he sat there as his face turned beet red, and he stood up.

Joel stood up and Calmly placed his hand on his shoulder.
"Leave it be Vlad you'll have your fun soon enough." Joel walked past him shoeing away the drunk quietly hoping to save Lio some trouble. If Vlad got into trouble here some nasty stuff would happen and he would most likely lose his job, life or maybe even worse. Sometimes working here was not a good thing. The drunk struggled as he got pushed away from Vlad.
"He took my beer man..." Joel told him he'd get another one if he worked along with him and Joel took his arm forcefully and almost dragged him towards the bar. He put him on a seat and gave him a beer making the man shut up. Signing to Lio he should keep Vlad calm and try to get him to release his anger somehow He started to make some drinks for them all.

pulling the pill bottle out of his shirt pocket, he poped 3 more. then he told Joel to get him a wet towel and a dry towel to get the beer out of his shirt." if i dont get any anger agression out im going to explode and turn freaking someone into a fucking coat rack. this is pissing me off. i need to work or somethign, you have to give me somethign to do. this is a handspjs...... see im even slurring my words." he sat back down after Joel had threw him his towels. he stood up and walked up to the bar to give Joel his towels back. when he got up to the bar that drunk man looked at Vlad and poured his beer on his shirt again." that wasnt an accident was it buddy," said the drunk." i could take you any day," he said again. Vlad stood there and thought for a sec. he decided that he didnt care anymore. he punched him so hard taht the man's face almost exploded and he fell behind the bar. Vlad walked behind the bar slowly and dragged the mans dead body out into the back.

Cleo sat at the end of the bar not realy paying much attention to anyone in the bar she had been ordering drinks but they didnt contain much alchol every so often she would play with a piece of her black hair or cross her silky smooth long legs, her black dress clinging to her curves and the dress showed a lot of her clevage but it didnt make her look like a hooker. Her dark eyes glanced over the two men who were talking more in anger as the man punched the other man she smiled the guy was strong she looked back at her drink and sipped it as the strong guy threw the man over the bar she looked at him and bit her lip her eyes went to the bartender and then to her drink, out of the corner of her eye she could see the man carry the body away but she didnt seem bothered about it. She ordered another drink and a man came and whispered something in her ear she smiled and whispered into his ear the mans eyes grew wide and he stumbled away from her she smirked at him and then turned to the bar her beautiful face seemed to show that she was upset but she had come here to have fun and thats what she would do.

Ooc-Hope its ok if i join, shes a human by the way and looks a lil like the pic in my sig

He sighed a little shaking his head , his eyes wandering to the woman at the end of the bar , nothing in his interest. He stood slowly and calmly , his jeans shifting on his hips. His hand snaking out and grabbing two shots of the onion Vodka , taking one and the second at the same time. He lowered the glassess and slowly twisted from his stool. He headed from the stool , moving past a person or two until he finally got to stage, seeing a saxophonist in line , he shook his head to the man. " V" That was all he had to say before the man gave a quick nod. He sighed a little , finally not able to resist. " How many of you know Zoot Suit boogy ? " He rose a brow people clapping madly as he smiled , he signaled for a trumpet player to come out , the drummer suddenly broke into a heavy riff and Lio began to put out fervent moves , people coming to dance as well. He grabbed the mic from its stand as the bass filled in along with guitar. He leapt down the stairs , making his voice raspy as he sang.

" Come into the jazz club on a murky , friday night.
Seeing myself , a lady in black , Best thing in sight.
[ He had been slipping his way to the woman he had seen.]
Prettiest thing I've ever noticed.
If I miss my chance , man I'm gonna blow this.
( He knew exactly what to do , he moved slowly closer to her , his hand easing to her arm as his hand slid over the bad grabbing his white fedora , he put it on quickly , tugging away quickly , turning and smoothly leaning back on the bar the mic moved close to his lips. )
Smoothe tan skin , dark hued eyes , her lips seem made of ruby.
If she gives me her hand , we'll be doing the Zoot Suit boogy "

The sudden sound of rhythmic clapping was in the air as he extended his hand to her , a soft wink rolling out , he was trying to entertain Vlad , giving her a soft nod and a look of " PLEASE !" He had to have her dance or the song would be ruined , and he would hate that.

Kathryn didn't know how she'd ended up at this club... there was nowhere else... She approached the bar and waited patiently. She was nervous, so she headed to the restroom... She gazed at her reflection. Kathryn would never view herself as the beautiful temptress others described her as. She wore a black skirt, with rips and tears in it, that reached past her knees, and wore comfortable black clogs with scuff marks and tattered ends. Her shirt was ripped and short, but hung loosely on her boney figure. The dark colors were a deep contrast to her deathly pale skin. Her lithe form moved gracefully across the room, near the sinks. She splashed water in her face. Her makeup had long since worn off. She gazed at her tired-looking reflection. She had given up on her dream of being a singer. Right now, all she needed was a paying job and a place to stay. She was only nineteen, but her dreams had already fallen. She had been living in her car for a while, and she couldn't remember the last time she'd eaten. She raked her fingers through her short black hair, trying to make herself look presentable. She sighed, giving up and heading back out. She sat at a stool by the bar. "I'm looking for someone who's hiring," she murmured to the man behind the counter. She couldn't dare hope that they would hire her, looking like she was... but she still had to try. This was the last place she was going to visit tonight, and she wasn't sure where to ask. "Who should I talk to? Are you hiring? Do you have an application?" She pleaded, her big dark eyes desperate...


ooc~ is that okay? should i go back and edit it...?

When he had been edgeing his way closer to her she had felt pissed of but she just smirked and looked at her drink then seeing him wink and have a look of pleding She sliped her hand into his she had no idea of the song and she wasnt to familar with the music or even this club but when most eyes were on her she had to dance with him she smiled ever so sweetly not speaking she just nods and looks at everyone around her scanning them for a second and then turning to him wondering were his friend was, he was more than likly doing this to amuse one of his friends or just his aduance. She used her free hand to push a piece of her hair out of her face she was glad she had unaturaly pale skin it ment it didnt show when she blushed.

He smiled at the woman who asked for a job. Joel threw her a towel and pointed at the dishes.
"My names Joel. You can do the dishes and wash some glasses. You'll get payed at the end of the day and get a 35% share of my tips." He liked her looks she was nice. Too bad he couldn't keep her working here since she was human. Vlad seemed to have lost some anger now that Lio was playing a song again. That sax player better hide before Vlad gets to him. He thought with a grin. He held out his hand for the woman with the dark pleading eyes to shake.
"Welcome to the club lady." He bowed like a gentleman not caring about her slight state of shabbyness and kissed her hand politely.
Getting back to his glasses on the counter he started to put them on a tray and setting each tray near the sink.

He smiled , whispering to her with the mic from his mouth. " Thanks for this. " He grinned softly , moving forward , his hand coming to rest on her lower back , his hand slowly holding her's as he twirled wildly over and over , finally turning in the stance and directing her to roll over his back quickly , swing dancing , Lio's favorite. As she came over he hooked under her legs , supporting her head as he twirled her about , turning her a little and holding at the brace of her shoulders as he twirled her around finally allowing her to rest on his shoulder , he worked out , so what ? He grinned a bit winking up at her as he brought up his mic.

" Get on the dance floor
Shake ya' jackets off like never before
Because in a few moments when all is smug.
My men will get on the floor and tear up the rugs ! "


The sudden sound of four other voices came present , singing with him and a bit after as they began coming down , dancing with the same people , Lio always enjoyed putting on a show.

"I'm Kathryn," she smiled back at Joel, blushing as he kissed her hand. It all happened so fast. He didn't seem to mind that she looked a bit shabby. "But... I haven't been interviewed, I haven't even filled out an application... 35%???? Just for washing dishes?" She beamed happily and made her way to the other side of the counter. She began washing dishes, scrubbing them squeaky clean, and doing the same with the glasses. "Are you sure?" She asked him again. She swayed a little, she was a bit dizzy and shaky from not having eaten in so long. She dried the dishes and glasses off quickly and efficiently.
