After the uneventful kindred activities and silence that swept through Seattle, Aeric took it upon himself to establish a firm grasp on the city while he had the chance. Seeing as though Tessa and Devo were no where to be found, he watched over their Nightclub, kept everything in check for the time being, incase they might return, he figure he would own a peice of their estate too. Ensuring his safety in the city of Seattle.

Not long after he took over running the club, he met Jayme, a Kindred that seemed to match him every witty comment for comment. Aeric immediately saw her as competition in "his" city. So he approached her one night as she visited the club, her fame far proceeds her more than she had realized as Aeric joined her at the table with a sly, greedy, yet irritated smile as he peered across to her intently she asked plainly," .... Can I help you with something sir?"

Aeric just grinned and shook his head slightly and stated,"Nay, I just came to introduce myself to the famous Jayme, world renowned poet. I heard you were even a nominee for a pulizter..that is just splended."

Jayme chuckled and shook her head slightly,"Well, it seems you know enough about me, but I know nothing of you... Mr.?"

Aeric quickly responded,"Graves...Aeric Graves. Please, accompany me into my office and I shall tell you a bit more about myself." He puts on that plastic smile as if it were casual, and stands to his feet, and gestures to the door in the back, and lets her lead the way.

Jayme nods slightly," Sure, this should be interesting." As she makes her way into the office, glancing around a little bit, as Aeric approaches from behind responding to her statement just a moment ago,"..Oh, I assure you, its going to be the time of your life.", as he places his cold, pale hand to her bare flesh, invoking the Black Death upon her, putting her into torpor quickly with but that tiny brush against her skin. He quickly sweeps her into his arms and then makes for the back exit of the club, cloaking them under the power of Obfuscate, and putting her into the passanger seat of his car and then hops into the driver side and steps on the gas and takes off like a bat out of hell, hitting the main street without hesitating as he drives off to his store.

Moments later, after arriving at the store. Taking Jayme into his secret haven, he straps her down a steel metal chair with copper wire, as soon as she comes to, he is sitting at the edge of the table staring down at her,"..mmm.. Welcome to my haven, Jayme."

Her eyes grow wide as she stares up at him questionably, wondering what happened. Having blacked out from the club until now... she thinks to herself. It must of been him, it had to have been him. He did something to me, but what did he do? Who is this stranger, what does he want with me? All these thoughts pass through her mind as he watches Aeric intently.


Aeric smiles warmly and pushes off the table and walks over to the fridge, and pulls out a glass out of the cabinet, and then a bottle out of the fridge. Setting the glass onto the counter, he opens the bottle and pours the crimson fluid into the glass. Then he puts the bottle back and walks over to Jayme, sitting in a chair infront of her as he holds the glass before her, taking a sip, and then offers her some. She refuses to take a drink, he narrows his eyes on her and snarls a little, and says commandingly,"Take a fucking drink now." She gives him an odd look, not about to piss him off, she closes her eyes and opens her lips slightly, and Aeric lifts the glass to her lips, pouring some of the fluid into her mouth, making sure she gets a good drink some of the liquid splashing off her lips and onto her clothing as she spits up some of it. Aeric chuckles a bit and shakes his head,"Look at what you've done now, you've made a mess of yourself." Jayme snarls at him and his supposely witty comments, and spits some of the blood back in his face and says defiantly,"..awww..look, you've made a mess of yourself too." She grins evilly as she watches him. Aeric draws his hand back quickly, ready to strike her. Jayme winces just before Aeric lays the backhand on her, but he doesn't hit her, he lowers his hand back to his lap and stands to his feet, and begins to talk to her, not with her, but at her as if she were a tape recorder,"I know your wondering who I am, I'm Aeric Graves, I didn't lie about my name if that is what your thinking..." She rudely interrupts by blurting out,"No, actually I was thinking of slitting your after I get out of these restraints."

Aeric pause a moment, and gives her a cold look, a very intimidating one at that as he walks over to her and wraps his large, extremely cold, pale hand about her throat tightly, digging his nails into her neck,"And what makes you think I'm not thinking the same thing." Jayme quickly goes silent, seeing that she has stirred him up enough, actually looking to come out of this alive. Aeric narrows his eyes on her a moment, and then pulls away and continues,"Like I said, my name is Aeric Graves, I seek not to harm you, but to elimate you as a competitor. And to do so, I have but a few limited choices, brainwash you, blood bond you, or kill you right here and right now. Which is it you would prefer?" Jayme's eyes widen as he clearly stats her only options, watching him for a moment, wondering if she could possibly talk him out of it, or to do otherwise. Aeric then realizes she isn't going to pick an option, and continues,"Well, since your going to be here a while until you decide. I might as well tell you who I am, it isn't going to matter much with any of the options you have to choose from anyways." So he continues to talk to her, most of the night, he tells her his background history, and she also shares a bit with him.

Hours later, just about an hour before sunrise,"Well, that concludes my history. If you haven't figured it out yet, I am of the clan of death, aka the graverobbers as some would call us. And from your background, I would say you were....mostlikely Lasombra." Jayme shakes her head slightly," No, I'm not Lasombra, close to it though. Since it doesn't really seem like its going to matter if you know what clan I am from or not I guess I will tell you...I am of the clan Kiasyd." Aeric goes silent a moment, not really knowing much of that clan, for it being fairly new and all, he gives her a quizzical look,"Interesting, I only know a bit about your clan, perhaps we can continue this conversation tomorrow night, but for tonight, I suggest you get some rest, sleep on it a while. I expect to have a descision from you soon." Jayme nods slightly in response and looks around a bit, giving Aeric a funny look,"So you expect me to sleep like this?..tied to a chair? Your kidding right?" Aeric turns back to face her, narrowing his eyes on her and shrugs a little,"Well, that was what I had planned. But I suppose you want different arrangements?" Jayme nods eagerly, thinking anything to get out of these restraints. Aeric looks her over a moment and then nods,"Alright, I'll move you then, but I'm going to have to knock you unconscience first." Jayme gives him an odd look for a moment, and then nods in agreement and lowers her head a bit and closes her eyes, waiting for him to whack her upside the back of the head or something. Aeric watches her a moment, and then touches her, sending her back into torpor with the touch of Black Death, and then unties her and moves her to the bed, and figures he'll just leave her in torpor until the next morning. And then leaves off to go back to his studies...

_____________________________________________________________________Pt. 1_
Okay, it has been a while since I've wrote anything for Roleplaying purposes. And , well, I know I should be working on the third chapter to my book, but like I said before, I don't think I am read to do that yet...so, I'm going to do something a little different, and just write short stories, (i'm going to turn the other chapters into short stories, possibly only a couple pages long at most)

I thought some of you that actually read my stuff, might like to know how Aeric and Jayme met. So, here it is, the beginning of a love story. Puke


naah..its not really that bad. erm. but, there is going to be alot of information left out, its not a movie ya know, its a book. rofl. and I doubt people want to read a bunch of chit chatter in a book. ROFL okay. anyways. enjoy.

yes.. Aeric is a cold, heartless vampire whom's morals are that which death stands for, and Jayme is almost the complete opposite, so there is going to be some rough edges.
