Storm didn't waver. "I guess they have something I like, then, wouldn't you think?" He pushed open the doors and walked out before Crystal could get to the stairs, still scratching absentmindedly and wanted to appear as normal as ever, though delays were starting to irritate. He walked at a nice pace, a calm pace and smiled and greeted all those who were up and moving about the town, finally able to slip down the allyway he wanted. |

Shadow was quick on his trail. It was obvious that Storm was doing something he shouldn't be, whether bad for him, or other people, it wasn't good. As Storm turned the alley way, Shadow moved to grab at him, grabbing his shoulder firmly, but keeping his ground, knowing how quick Storm could be to react. |

Storm's focus being on only one thing, he had no idea he was being followed or that anyone was even behind him. He jumped and spun around, using his force to push away 'his attacker' by instinct, crouching and hissing, on edge. Seeing Shadow, he gave a curt growl and stood again, pulling slightly at his collar, feeling it burn then begin to cool. "What on earth are you doing, Shadow." He hissed. |

Shadow instinctively braced against the impact, channeling the force through his arms and into the earth through his posture, though being pushed back a few feet. "I've gotten a good enough idea what you're doing here," he said, noting the bloodshot eyes and the constant scratching. "Even if you are a demon king, the withdraw is just as bad, and you need to be in your right mind to handle this." Shadow felt the tension between them, but it wasn't like the usual hostility with a foe, but something different. |

A soft growl came from in his chest. "What you need to do is go back. Go get the army started on their training. And I will be there shortly. Nothing here concerns you." Irritability showed in his eyes and he felt his body growing hotter than usual. "Hey, hey, hey. Why the hostility? What's going on here?" A man walked up, a nice long trench coat on, long enough to hide what he was wearing, but not his boots. "Storm. You got some money for me, I assume?" Edited by Ice, October 25, 2013, 3:42 pm.

Shadow whirled around on the man, his eyes going white for a moment as he said, "Stay out of this." Without another word, he turned back to Storm and continued their business, hoping the man would take this hint without violence, but Shadow prepared for the worst. "Everything here concerns me. You need to be the one with the troops more than me. I don't even belong here," he said, narrowing his gaze now. |

Storm hissed. "You do belong here! I couldn't be doing anything I'm doing if you weren't here! And I will be with the troops as soon as I'm done here." The man chimed in. "Look, if you guys have issues, I gotta go. Are we trading here or what?" He seemed unphased by Shadow, having plenty of intimidating customers. "Yes, we're trading here." Storm growled and glared at Shadow. "I've trusted you with a little extra knowledge about me. Hostility won't get you more." |

"So tell me first, how long has this be going on then?" Shadow asked, not standing down to allow anything like a trade to happen. His hand drifted near his dagger, splitting his focus on the man behind him, as well as Storm. |

Storm growled. "I don't remember. We have things we need to do today, Shadow, and I need what I can get here. I'm not waiting longer." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a good amount of gold coins and turned to the man behind him. "I want all three types." The man smirked. "As normal." He reached into his coat in three different areas. He pulled out a full bottle of pills, a bottle of liquid with 10 needles to go with it, and two small boxes each the size of a hand. |

Shadow could felt the hurt that Crystal would. His left hand hovered over a sheathed dagger, torn between his love for two friends. Finally, he let his promise ring true. The pill bottled ruptured, the cap sliced clean off and several pills powdered from the sonic boom created from speed. Shadow whipped his left dagger back into its sheath, standing between the dealer and Storm and said, "Take your filth else where. No one is making a trade today, and if you're not smart, you'll never see another trade again." |

Both the man and Storm stood in shock. The trials the man had to go through for those drugs were expensive and he was about to demand a payment but instead, having other appointments, he turned his back. "You broke the agreement. No more trades." He left. Storm growled, his eyes narrowed on Shadow in utter anger. "What the hell are you doing, Shadow!" |

Shadow whirled around to face Storm now. "I should be asking you the same thing. What the hell are you doing, lying to Crystal? Sneaking away to fulfill your own cravings and then trying to hide it all. Be glad I caught you before she did though," Shadow said, knowing that his rage at Storm's betrayal wouldn't even touch Crystal's should she know. |

"I haven't lied to her, she hasn't asked anything! I need what he had and you just made me lose it! You act like this is some horrid thing I've done!" |

"Tell me, do you think she would approve of this? No need to answer that, because you'd have told her rather than sneak out if you thought she would. Do you keep other secrets from her? What do you think she would do if I told her about your little habit?!" he replied, matching Storm. A thought occurred to Shadow. He could make a good point here about this habit, but it was a dangerous risk. |

Storm froze, his breathing going shallow. "Tell her? You wouldn't...." Distrust lingered in his eyes as his need for his drugs that his body and mind had become dependent upon." |

"Oh, so you are worried then. How about we play a little game. If I win, I can do whatever I choose, and if you win, I'll remain silent about this disgusting habit of yours. What do you say, think you are up for a challenge?" Shadow said, pulling at Storm's mind.

Storm growled deeply. "I'm glad you think this is a damn game, Shadow! Fine I'll play your damn game and you better keep your end of the deal when I lose. AND pay me back since I'll have to pay him back for him to see me again! What's your challenge." |

"I love your confidence." Shadow's body went inhumanly still and his voice said, "Beat me in a fight and prove you are capable of protecting Crystal like this." |

His infamous smirk touched his lips as he sank into a crouch. "If you wish." He disappeared, using his speed and appearing behind Shadow, his eyes solely crimson but his mind only half on the fight, occupied by his cravings. |

The after image of Shadow vanished in a haze of shroud and a blunt strike hit Storm in the ass, Shadow's version of kicking his ass. "Haha! Can you see the irony here?" he said, making light of the fight now. Though he put on a playful air, his senses were high and his every movement was sharp. |
