Thayer is walking down the street, successfully applied for classes. Though it wasn’t that difficult convincing the headmaster to enroll him, give him a full paid scholarship and one of the best dorm rooms on campus. The perks of being an incubus obviously he guessed. He was walking across the Charm’s n Thangs and noticed the worker. The worker looked like one of the guys he noticed in the dorms but he wasn’t bothered to think about it. He turned the corner remembering what he was told in Toronto before he left that all his answers will be in LA when it comes to his parents. But after being here for two weeks many of his questions haven’t been answered yet.
Though he was excited about his dance classes he was more excited to find out about his parents and if they had the same powers he did and if they could help him control them. It started to drizzle a little and Thayer soon wished he could control the weather instead of people. He covers his head with his hoody and quickly tries to find a place to hide from the potential rain before it really starts to pour.

"If we are going to ride in first class, at least look into upgrading the wheels, all I've been hearing for the past few minutes is the screeching, I don't have time for car accidents, I'm a very busy woman." Her driver nodded, obviously heeding her words carefully as the screeching over the puddles and rough ashfelt road soon become forgotton. She glanced back out the window of the company's $120,000 limosine with a confident smirk, as she finally felt the ability to relax on her journey. She didn't know how this driver became hired, but she would definantly be seeing to a replacement very shortly.
The car soon came to a halt at her command, and her window soon moved down, where she focused her attention to a young man in a hoody, who was trying to find shelter from the rain. "Looking a little wet there. Forget your coat or something?" She soon heard laughter from her driver, causing her to deliver a sharp gaze towards him which soon silenced him. She turned back to the boy outside the limosine with a charming smile. "Thayer...Is it? If you do give me a moment, I'd like to offer you a business proposistion. One which I think you would be highly interested in. Theres an empty seat next to me in here with a pinot grigio if you are willing to spare a moment of your...Precious time, and have a little conversation with me. All you have to do is lose that soggy hoody, I just got this limosine pressed, don't need any collateral damages already, I already avoided an accident on my journey to find you." She sat back firmly in her seat, more relaxed, giving him a raised eyebrow, offering him the opportunity to step inside her limosine. It wasn't often that she proposed such things to less fortunate people. He just didn't know his worth let.

Thayer looks around and he notices there isn’t much place to hide from the rain if it starts to pour even more. He once again looks at Ariel who seems very persistent that he joins her in her limo. He nods as Ariel orders his chauffeur to open the door for Thayer as he walks out and opens the door for Thayer. Thayer drops his hoody outside as he enters the Ariel’s limo. The chauffeur looks on weird as he goes to pick up the hoody. “Don’t bother...let’s say it was a gift”. The chauffeur closes the door as he sits behind the wheel and starts driving as Thayer sits next to Ariel as she pours him some Champaign as she hands it over to him.
Ariel smirks as Thayer looks at her questioning her motives. He takes a sip of his wine and quickly addresses her interest in him. “So you say you have a proposal for me? What exactly is it that you want me to do”. Ariel tries to lower the tension by grabbing Thayer’s hand to explain but Thayer quickly moves his hand away. “Please, don’t touch me”. This startles Ariel a bit.

She eyes the young man as he sips the wine, smirking. He knows a good wine when he sees one, at least, it seemed. She placed her hand on his before speaking, however he quickly withdrew, telling her not to touch him. Personal issues, much? She didn't mind, it was what she wanted. Someone with issues like these were so much more easily manipulated into going with what she wants them to do, because she offers them something they can't refuse. Ariel was the master of manipulating people it seemed, because she always gave them great opportunities which benefitted them in some way, but helped her out in an even greater way.
She waved her head with a nod to the driver to begin driving along slowly down the abandoned street. "This won't take long, I'll have you back out there getting soaked like a homeless person in no time. You do at least have a home, right? Hmm." She paused for a moment in thought. She then had an idea, reaching into her handbag and pulling out a key. She pointed it towards him, signalling for him to take it. "This is a key to one of the finer apartments downtown; luxury suite with spa bath, king bed and of course, plasma television with a selection of digital channels. Oh, and there is wi-fi access, alongside one of the most technologically advanced hardrives. Your welcome to stay in there as long as you like", I just need one little tiny favour from you. Think you can handle that?" Who was going to knock back this kind of luxury living, especially a homeless person getting caught up in the rain? "I can also have a brand new hoody pressed and ironed just for you, already in your waldrobe before you even arrive at the apartment." She was a briber, through and through, but why stop doing something that works?
She took a sip of her pinot, smiling confidentally before pulling out some papers. From there, she revealed two pages worth of files; each page with a different person. Xzavier Evans and Everette Evans. "I just need your help with these files, Thayer. It is my understanding that you have a special ability in your possession that can do things you would never have thought imaginable. I won't judge you, I am one of the few who appreciates and understands your gift. But I think it is time you used your gift to do something, make a difference. These two men are a threat to the organization I am from. I just need some assistance dealing with them, and I think you could really help me out in that department. What do you think?"

Thayer was a bit startled that Ariel knew about his abilities and he quickly found himself uncomfortable in the limo thinking how she found out or who could have told her. By her body language it was pretty clear she knew something but after hearing all her offers he couldn’t help but smirk. She knew about his abilities but it was clear to him she doesn’t know everything. He looked down at the file and notices one of the guys on there was one of the workers from Charm N Thangs not to far from here and walked right across it. But what would she wants with him and the other guy, he’s assuming is his brother. “So that’s all you are offering me? A Fancy luxury apartment and a new hoody?"
Thayer noticed that Ariel is a real manipulative master mind, but lucky for him, so is he and he could easily get all those things and more on his own terms thanks to his abilities. Plus he was way too busy with his own things to be wasting his time with other people’s drama. “Maybe you should do some more research before giving me such simple bribes. Not going to make your problems mine with simple things I could get on my own easilyâ€. Thayer puts down his glass of wine as he tries his best to get out of the limo. He unlocks the door and looks at Ariel. “Maybe when you have something better to offer me, maybe then we can talk business, I'm busy with bigger and more important thingsâ€. Thayer opens the door and is about to step out of the limo.

Ariel smirked at his statement. It was actually surprising, she had actually anticipated that someone like him would jump at such an offer. But who was someone like him? He was a messed up kid, but what other messed up kids had his kind of power? Slim to none, though she hadn't done a complete search through her database yet, something she'd have to try out later as backup in case this guy falls through. He apparently needed more than just the fancy and luxurious lifestyles, ironically enough as he didnt' even have that. But luckily for her, she always had a plan b, which would be put into full force. If he thought he could just easily knock back her opportunity, he had another thing coming. Whatever she wanted, she got, one way or the other. The nice cruise in the limosine was the nice way, pulling the gun out of her hangbag was the other. He didn't want that.
She chuckled at his further comments. Luckily for you, I do do my research. Maybe this third file will be of some more incentive? She slipped a third piece of paper onto his lap with a satisfactory smirk. On this paper were two photos of his parents, with their names listed below and their details. She gave him a moment of glancing over the important stuff, before slipping the paper away and folding it back up. "In case you are illiterate also, let me explain. I've done some extensive research into you Thayer, especially into your adoption. I decided to take it upon myself to see who you really are, so I found your real family. Right here, on this file. I could arrange a meeting between you all, you know. But its going to cost you. One of the brothers, and I give you the files. Both of the brothers, and I arrange a meeting between you and your parents. And you don't have to kill the brothers or anything, just suck their life out long enough for them to pass out and we'll do the heavy lifting. Nothing to it. So, do we have an arrangement?" She sipped some more from her wine glass, eyeing the boy intensely, a smile still present on her lips. Sure, it was bribery at its finest, but if he scratched her back, she'd scratch his. Fair game.

Thayer was in a state of shock. He spent four years searching it brought him to LA bit this was too be to be true. She couldn’t know his parents. She couldn’t know the truth. But she seemed so confident that she did. Thoughts went through his mind, the possibilities of being reunited with his parents. Was this all happening now. But why would she go through all the trouble. All these taught went through his mind and he couldn’t wrap his mind around it and he found himself saying the only thing that could come to mind. “My parents, you found my parents”
But was it all worth it he wondered, was it all worth it. What made these two brothers so important that she would be willing to give him all of this? Thayer was in a state of shock. But doing this he would do the one thing he could never figure out. Which is drain enough life out of someone to keep them alive. Thayer hasn’t mastered his abilities and certainly not this part of it. What was he to do? Should he accept this offer he wondered? “So all I have to do is get these guys for you and I can meet my parents?”
Thayer was worried, should he tell her he couldn’t control his ability yet? He couldn’t this is his chance to find his birth parents, what he’s been searching for the last two years. Was the life of these two guys worth his parents? Often confident he found himself being manipulated for a change. Being played, being the victim, something he was never used to. He looked at her, he wasn’t intimidated by her looks, since she looked good for her age but her looks didn’t seem superior to his so she didn’t seem like much of a bother. “So you can promise me I can see my birth parents if I get you both of these guys?” Thayer stared Ariel straight in the eye to see if she could be trusted.

She sighed as he questioned her logic. Sure, he was probably shocked at the possibility of finding his parents, but it was still frustrating. "Yes, thats what I said. Went to a lot of effort and busted resources to find them too, so a little gratefulness is always appreciated. Not that I really care, anyway." It wasn't that much trouble, just frustrating because it was research she didn't really give a crap about, apart from the fact that she needed it as leverage for this kid to do her bidding. The payoff would be worthwhile in the end, she realized that, she just hoped the payoff was big. This kid would determine that, which was a bit of a worry.
"No, thats not how it works. You get these two guys for me and I might let you meet your parents. Did it ever occur to you that may not want to meet you? I can use every resource I want, but I can't get parents to love their bastard son. Did you think you were adopted out because you were too cute of a baby or something?" She smirked softly, taking another sip from her pinot, relaxing back into the comfy leather limosine chairs. "Then again, they may love you and you can all play happy families, how beautiful. Guess it depends on how well you perform the tasks, Thayer." She could be a hard bitch, she wasn't going to stand there and deny that, but she knew what it took to get results. And good damn results, too. She didn't get high up in this business by picking daiseys and putting smiles on childrens' faces.
She sighed softly. "If you get the job done, I'll arrange a meeting between your parents and you. You have my word. I may be a hard woman, but I stick to my word. I hope you can stick to yours, I'd hate for your parents to be taken out of the equation completely, without even knowing their son was looking for them. So many fatal accidents happen in this city you know..." She smiled softly, the limosine pulling up, back where she picked the boy up. The driver got out of the car and opened up Thayer's door for him to exit the limosine. Before he got out, Ariel glanced back over at him. "I have every faith you will get the job done, yes? When the deed is done, don't worry about finding us, we'll find you. We are watching, after all."She smirked softly.

Thayer takes the files as he wonders if this could all be a trick. But he wasn’t going to take that risk. He wasn’t going to bother worrying about these guys. The state of his parents was depending on this. If he ever wanted to see his parents he would have to do this. He would have to get these two guys for him. “But, how will get in touch with you when it’s done?” Where they following him? How did they find him to begin with? He wasn't bothered though, all he needed to do was get the job done he figured. Not important how they got in touch with him.
Thayer stepped out of the limousine and stared back at Ariel sitting there glaring at him. He looked at her curious but it seemed like her driver was in a hurry. And it was raining, he couldn’t let him standing there with the door open. Especially if he was working for a demanding nutcase like this one. So he looked down at the files again from both brothers and he had no choice. He had no other option than going through with the plan. “You have yourself a deal. But I better see my parents at the end of this or your driver here may have to be looking for a new employer”
He smirked showing that he wasn’t intimidated by her or in any position to be screwed over by her. He meant business and intended on getting the job done to meet his parents.

Between red blood lips sprouted a smile of perly white teeth. She was now very happy. It was one thing knowing who two of the three Trinity brothers were but it was another to try and figure out how to beat them. She was actually going to enjoy killing each and every one of them. She had sent vampires, she had a potential candidate for the third brother locked in her office at this very moment. But to get a seducer to get them. It was so good. So - intimate. That is what made her smile, and also through using the natural sin of greed against this stupid child. But his curse will become there gift, his desires will power there plan. There was nothing in LA now that could stop Selena. She loved the fact. Sitting back in her seat, she tapped a manicured red ruby nail onto the button on the keyboard as soon as the demon accepted. Now the fun could begin.
In the limousine, from the back of the seat in front of the two flipped open a screen. On the screen was your truelly. Her hair perfectly done in blonde strands, a pressed red suit visible from the viewers sight. She looked very pleased. "Hello Mr Gallager. I must say I am estatic that you accepted our offer. Ms Dawson here can be fairly persuasive. The deal stands, you do what we want and we get what you want. It's simple". Looking forwards at the two of them, she glanced through the camera to Ariel and gave her a smile. Ariel was the best worker she could ask for. The smile was thankful towards her, and then she looked back over at the incubus.
"However, first we should do this properly". From under the seat, a hidden drawer was sent open from the control of a press of a button from Selena's office. In there was a contract. It was simple and derived from the best lawyers in LA. She made a hand gesture for the kid to take it and have a look. "What you are looking at is a contract. On this contract it verfies a few things. One that you do what you want and what is promised will be given to you. Another is that if you tell anyone or the targets who gave you this special 'assignment' then CEO approved actions can be taken. All you have to do is sign. Ariel". She qued for the woman to pass a pen to the incubus. Selena sat back further, wafting in success. Sitting back with Angel sitting across the room, smiling down at her. |

Thayer pulls out his own pen and takes a look at the contracts. The Contracts seemed legit, he would have the opportunity to get into contact his parents. This was his dream coming true. This was everything he hoped for and it all was just being handed to him. But what was it about these guys that made them go through all this trouble. What was so important about these guys? He worried that if he didn’t go through with the plan what would go wrong. They both seemed so persistent . “I have my own pen, but what makes these guys so important?”
Thayer thought to him self “did I just ask that? Really?” It was wrong of him to do so. Their problems with these two guys were not his problem at all. He just needed to get the job done and meet his parents. Its what his goal was and whatever happened to both these guys isn’t his problem. “You know what? Never mind don’t want to know”
Thayer signs the contract and lays it on the seat. He puts his pen in his pocket and looks at Selena. “Okay, I signed, now If there is nothing else you need, I’d like to go now”.

She was satisfied with the results of their arrangement; although she had every confidence that Thayer would go along with her offer, there was always the chance that something anticipated could occur. She had been in this enterprise for long enough to realize that things often don't fall directly into plan, and what defines the strength of the person is how they manage to short task around it and find alternatives. Something she was quite good at, also. If he had've declined her offer, she would have easily threatened to kill his family. The family at gunpoint form of persuasion is always successful, especially in cases with messed up teenages like Thayer.
She smirked softly at his stupid question. "You won't. I'll contact you when I feel the time is appropriate. And by that, it depends entirely on whether you get the tasks done. Because I am such a giving woman, I am lending you out any resource you see fit to get this mission done. What say you? A car, new set of clothes as a disguise, a gun, chains? I know how I enjoy doing business, but I'd enjoy being enlightened by your own methods, if willing to share." She sipped the last bit of wine from her glass, before signalling for the parked driver to refill her.
It isn't long after their discussion that Selena appears on the screen and enforces their arrangement with Thayer. Ariel glanced over as Thayer retrieved his own pen and signed the document. She smirked softly. "I believe you are mistaken Mr Gallager, this contract is a little different than the ones you are likely accustomed to. This type of contract requires a little more than just ink on paper." She retrieved a pen from her pocket, this one looking rather different than standard ones. It had a sharp blade on the side where the inc usually comes out from and the side used to write. She held the sharp pen out to Thayer with a smile. "I think you have a clear understanding of what to do next. That is, if you are prepared to adhere to our little arrangement?"

This caught Thayer off guard he was bit stunned by Ariel’s suggestion. He looked at the razor sharp pen and wondered who in their right mind would even go the distance to sign a contract in that matter. He couldn’t help but look at Ariel a bit weird and kind of made the suggestion that this is a bit too much for him. “Look lady, I can do freaky like any other guy, but this seems a bit too much for me lady.” He just couldn’t go through with it he felt.
He looked down at his hand and then stared at the razor sharp pen again. The thought that was going through his mind was overwhelming. He’s killed many but had a soft spot for blood. Even the sight of his own blood made his stomach turn. But this was his opportunity of a lifetime. This was his chance to get all his answers he’s been questioning all his life. He slowly moved his hand closer to Ariel, taking the sharp pen out of Ariel’s hand and just stared. His mind was like going through a rollercoaster. He couldn’t focus. He couldn’t do it. But he had too. He just had to do this.
Thayer looks at the contract, looks at the sharp pen and then looks up at Ariel and just looked at her questioned. For the first time since he was ten, he felt vulnerable, he felt weak, like he had no control over anything. Like when he lost his adoptive mother, he prayed to save her, he tried everything but she still died, it brought back memories he thought he completely forgot. He looked back at Ariel, wanting to seem confident. “So how am I supposed to do this Lady?”Thayer once again looked at the situation he was in and with no idea how to get out of it.

When he brought at the pen, she hoped Ariel would stop him. He was not a normal guy. This was not a norma situation. He wasn't being given a normal assignment. The contract was to be done in blood, his blood. The a blood contract guarteed that if he was to mess up or dismiss this assignment, that 'appropriate' consequences would be in order. If he turned it down, then he would find there names on the obituaries with severe neck laserations. When he questioned this, she looked to Ariel through the camera. She rose an eye brow and leaning forwards, prepared to disconnect. "I will leave this up to you". With a smile, she pressed an escape and the call was disconnected. The screen folded back into its position in the car and Selena sat back.
Looking across, she spotted Angel as the figment filed her nails, sitting on Selena's coffee table. Axel was in the lair, nice and confined but Angel just wanted to see how it went. Selena stretched back, he arms extended as if she was trying to elongate them. She kept her eyes on the black haired woman across the room as Angel looked from his shadow nails to Selena. "I have a very good feeling about this my dear. The Trinity Brothers are as good as mine. This incubus will do that for me. And soon". Selena then played with her hair as she thought and Angel disappeared into thin air. |

"Lady? Pardon me for not introducing myself, you may call me Ms Dawson. Or Ariel, if you wish, though I feel that by calling me Ariel, it makes the situation more casual. There is nothing casual about the formalities in place right now Thayer, so Ms Dawson would suffice." She cleared her throat, watching on at Thayer with a consertive glance. "Are you saying you are afraid of spilling a tiny bit of blood? If that is the case, maybe I have hired the assitance of the wrong person after all. If that is the case, I guess I would have no need for your family as means of leverage. I do hope you understand where I am coming from Thayer, when you see things from my perspective, things become so much more clearer." She smiled confidently, as Thayer took the sharp pen from her. Sometimes she scared herself with how cunning she was.
She once again eyed Thayer as he asked her yet another annoying question. Could he just do the act and be done with the talking? "Well Thayer, it is actually quite simple. Holding that utensil in your hand, you puncture a hand of your choosing with it, preferably the fat just between the thumb to avoid blood stains in my limo. Then slowly graze the pen down, forming a slight cut in the fat. You may then use this pen to sign the contract, binding you by blood to our firm until the action is performed." It was rather simple really, she was unsure why he found it so difficult to understand.
